The person outside the door finally gave up and replied, "Yes." ”

Xiao Huaijin kissed Wanxiang's forehead: "Don't go and take a look?" ”

"What's the hurry? It's never too late to look at the three poles in the sun. ”

But before the two of them lay down on the three poles of the sun, the charcoal fire in the stove burned out, and the room began to be cold, so Xiao Huaijin got up and dressed and wrapped the incense tightly with the quilt and carried it back to the bedroom.

I put on my robe and walked to the dressing table, and saw a letter pressed under the horn comb. Xiao Huaijin put the comb into his arms and put the letter next to the incense pillow: "I have something to go out, you can rest." ”

Wanxiang grabbed Xiao Huaijin's arm when she returned her hand: "Where is the prince going?" ”

Xiao Huaijin patted Wanxiang's hand: "Good, I'll be back in a while." ”

After speaking, Xiao Huaijin took the hand of the incense and put it into the quilt, and when he went out, he didn't forget to ask Qi'er to add some charcoal to the bedroom.

Listening to Xiao Huaijin's footsteps getting farther and farther, Wanxiang sat up and draped the thick quilt on her body, picked up the letter by the pillow and read it carefully, holding the big red embroidered mandarin duck quilt and breaking her fingers to count the days.

After counting twice, he stood up and got dressed: "Ji'er, pack up your things, let's go to Haihui Temple." ”

Ji'er hurriedly ran in: "Why do you suddenly want to go to Haihui Temple?" Will this go? ”

"Well, hurry up, or it'll be too late."

"Okay."

"Eh, find me a plain dress."

"Yes."

Wanxiang got up and put on her middle coat and sat in front of the bronze mirror and began to comb herself, and asked Qi'er to comb the hair bun of an ordinary woman's house, without any hair accessories, only a hosta.

He changed into a light purple dress, wore a satin cloak on the outside, and even took off the lantern with the son of 'Pingnan' hanging on the car.

Ji'er didn't know why: "The princess's style is very different from the past, and she came out without even applying rouge." ”

Wanxiang opened the curtain and looked outside: "Let's go to Haihui Temple to make incense, of course, there are some elements of dress, sincerity." ”

"Oh, then why don't we call Mrs. Shangshu or Princess Yonglu?"

"Do you really think I have the heart to incense? Then it is better to sleep in the house. Wanxiang looked back at Qi'er, who was full of questions: "It's going to get moldy these days, go out and do something serious, and I won't call you after that, you try not to talk." ”

"Got it."

Although Qi'er didn't know why Wanxiang told her to talk less, she still did it.

When she arrived at Haihui Temple, she sighed lightly at the endless steps, lifted her skirt and knelt on the steps, and walked up with three steps, one bow, nine steps and one knock.

Qi'er stood behind and stared wide-eyed, as if the person in front of her was not the Wanxiang she knew. The coachman on the side was stunned, even if he didn't know the princess, he also knew that Wanxiang was reluctant to come to a place like the temple.

Last time, I said to Xiao Jingyu that the bloody qi on his body was too heavy, and it was not suitable for a place like the temple. But today, I knelt down step by step like this, which is really confusing.

"Princess, this is ...... What's wrong? ”

Ji'er chuckled: "I don't know what's wrong, but the princess has always had her own reasons for doing things, you go down." ”

"Huh."

Wanxiang quickly went up as if she was in a hurry, and Qi'er followed closely behind her. Wanxiang looked around while worshipping, and finally saw an old woman in a blue jacket in front of her, who was also kneeling all the way, followed only by a personal maid.

It was none other than Qi Wei's mother.

Aunt Hong sent a message to Wanxiang, saying that Qi Wei's mother, Aunt Lin, was a very good person, deeply loved by Qi Hou, and gave birth to three sons and a daughter for Qi Hou.

It was only because Mrs. Qi lost her beloved son that she took the initiative to pass on Qi Wei, who had just given birth not long ago, to Mrs. Qi.

So Qi Wei became the son-in-law of Qi Hou's mansion, and also became the prince of the family, and lived with the perverse Mrs. Qi, so he naturally became arrogant.

When Wanxiang saw someone, she quickened her steps, and when she saw that the old woman stood up and was about to take another step up, Wanxiang picked up a stone casually and bounced it to Aunt Lin's popliteal fossa.

The old man has been kneeling for so long, and his feet are already unstable, and the strength of the incense is just right, which will not leave people with bruises but can still make people bend their knees.

Seeing that Ran fell, Wanxiang stood up neatly and ran forward to stop Aunt Lin who was about to fall. Waiting for the person to stand firmly, Wanxiang put down her hand: "Madame has been kneeling for too long." ”

"Thank you, girl."

Wanxiang saluted: "I see that my wife is also three steps, one bow, nine steps and one knock, and it will take a few hours to kneel down this way, isn't it difficult for my legs and feet to be disadvantaged?" It can be seen that the lady is sincere. ”

Aunt Lin raised her eyes to look at the sun, and turned around to remind Wanxiang: "It's not early, let's hurry up." ”

"Huh." Seeing that this Aunt Lin was being helped forward by the maid, the corners of Wanxiang's mouth were slightly hooked.

Closely followed Aunt Lin along the way, even if Aunt Lin's movements became more and more slow, Wanxiang kept following behind, and finally couldn't help but step forward to help the maid help Aunt Lin.

When he entered the temple and offered incense, he didn't ask a word about it, but only knelt down in front of the Buddha statue seriously.

After worshipping, Juanxiang turned around and was about to leave. Behind her, Aunt Lin called out to her: "I don't know what to call the girl?" ”

Wanxiang turned around, her delicate little face smiled very pleasantly, and replied: "It's good for Madame to call me Wanxiang." ”

"You look like you're married, where do you live, I'll give you a ride?"

She really thought that Wanxiang came out of a small family, and Wanxiang saluted: "Don't trouble Madame, I'll just go back by myself." ”

"May I ask what you want to ask for?"

I saw Wanxiang smile bitterly: "My husband is in some trouble, and I can't help much, so I came to the temple to ask for help." ”

"What's the trouble, why don't you let me hear about it?" Aunt Lin thought in her heart that if she could help with what she was asking for, she would be able to repay Wanxiang's favor.

But Wanxiang shook her head, with an indescribable expression on her face, Aunt Lin didn't want to ask too much after seeing it, and only said to Wanxiang: "If you don't say it, I won't ask." ”

"It's not that it's hard to say, it's just that I see that my wife is also worried, and it should be troublesome."

The two of them walked down together, chatting with each other. Seeing that they were about to separate, Aunt Lin took Wanxiang's hand and asked, "I'm going to come to offer a lamp the day after tomorrow, why don't you also offer one?" ”

"The day after tomorrow?"

"Not available?"

Ayaka chuckled: "No, that's fine." ”

"Then the day after tomorrow?"

"Okay, at the end of the day after tomorrow, I'll wait for Mrs. here."

"Don't leave it at that."

Wanxiang bowed her head and saluted to see this Aunt Lin get into the car, and sighed silently in her heart. Seeing that the carriage was far away, Wanxiang didn't speak, and couldn't help asking, "What's wrong with the princess?" ”

"I'm just curious why such a kind woman would give birth to a son like Qi Wei. I thought this Qi Wei was picked up from outside. ”

"It doesn't matter if he picked it up from outside, he can't get up from the bed anyway, he deserves it."

"Let's go back." I think I haven't eaten yet.

When she was waiting for Wanxiang to return home, Xiao Huaijin hadn't come back yet, and this person didn't know where he went. After eating, Wanxiang leaned over to the desk, and Qi'er went to turn over a bottle of medicinal wine and came out to rub Wanxiang's knees.

Wanxiang was eating candied fruit while flipping through the books that Xiao Huaijin had left in the bedroom, and waited for Xiao Huaijin to come back.

After almost half an hour's effort, Xiao Huaijin pushed the door in, and saw the red knees of the incense at a glance. While rubbing, Qi'er complained that the incense was too serious.

Xiao Huaijin walked over quickly: "You are ......"

Qi'er stood up and saluted, and then replied: "The princess went to Haihui Temple today, and the old man went up the long steps, three bows and nine bows. ”

After listening to this, Xiao Huaijin couldn't help but feel that Wanxiang had suffered some setbacks, and turned his eyes back to Qi'er and said, "You go down." ”

Sit down and take out a small wooden box and put it on the side of the desk: "Take a look." ”

Then he picked up the medicinal wine on the side and put it in his hand to warm it, and rubbed his knees for Ti Wanxiang.

Wanxiang scolded the wooden box and suddenly put it back into the distance, looking at Xiao Huaijin vigilantly: "Does the prince have anything else to say?" ”

"What can I do?"

"Then how do I know?"

"If I tell you to do something, do you have to go around in such a big circle? Still holding things to coax you, thanks to? ”

"You ......" Wanxiang leaned on the soft pillow and held her chin: "The prince's words are learned from Baining, right?" ”

Xiao Huaijin didn't answer Wanxiang's words, but only asked: "You didn't find out that you lost something?" ”
