Chapter 497: Outside the City
Compared with the grand and lively Daci'en Temple, the Potai Temple outside the city is extremely clean.
In addition to King Qin and Li Xia, that is, Jin Zhuoyan, who was a subordinate official of the Qin Palace, and Lu Yi, who was responsible for the protection of the palace.
King Qin and others all lived in the guest rooms of the Potai Temple to entertain pilgrims, fortunately, at this time, the Potai Temple was very deserted, and the guest rooms of the Potai Temple were occupied by the Qin Palace, and it would not hinder anyone.
Li Xia and King Qin were very pious in this ritual, from morning to night, almost the same as the work and rest of the mages.
Until the fourth day, in the afternoon, the two of them left the Potai Temple an hour early, and went up and down the bluestone steps outside the temple to the Yongning Bofu Annex, which was more than a mile away from the Potai Temple.
Lu Yi and Jin Zhuoyan were more than a dozen steps behind and walked side by side.
"Fortunately, there is a princess." After walking in silence for more than a quarter of an hour, Lu Yi sighed in a low voice.
Jin Shuyan looked at the two people in front of him who were holding hands and talking in a low voice, and hummed absentmindedly.
"Worried about the capital?" Lu Yi turned his head to look at Jin Shuyan and asked.
"No, Guo Sheng is in the capital, and it's not a big deal." Jin Shuyan gathered his mind, "The princess's temperament is very similar to her aunt," After a pause, Jin Shuyan said a little reluctantly: "Weng Weng said that when my aunt is as old as the princess, she is not as good as the princess, her heart is not as good as you and me, and the prince is not as good as her." ”
"You're worried?" Lu Yi's voice was low.
"No, what's there to worry about now?"
"There's nothing to worry about in the future." Lu Yi put her hands behind her back, looking very relaxed, "This is their family matter." ”
"Family matters? What is it now, but what about later? Jin humpled a sigh.
"In the future." Lu Yi glanced at Jin Cunyan, then turned his head and snorted at King Qin, "The prince is a smart person, you can take care of your backyard, and so can he." ”
"It's different." Jin Zhuoyan was unconvinced, and then sighed again, "What you said is also true, no matter what, it is also a family matter." ”
"Are you going to go in a moment?" The eaves of Yongning Bobie Village could already be seen from a distance, and Lu Yi looked at the eaves flying up in the corner and asked.
"If you don't go in, a group of female dependents, it's inconvenient for us, besides, going in will add to the chaos." Kim simply refused.
"Then we'll wait outside." Lu Yi slowed down and looked at the door of Biezhuang, where Mrs. Yan, Mrs. Xu and others greeted them down the steps.
Mrs. Li Xia and Mrs. Xu carried her skirt and rushed to the front, Mrs. Yan followed unhurriedly, both of them lost a lot of weight, behind Mrs. Yan, Mrs. Guo Er walked at the end with a gloomy face, went down the steps, stood sideways by the steps, and squinted at Beizhuang.
King Qin let go of Li Xia, and Li Xia was thrown into her arms by Mrs. Xu, "Why did Ah Xia lose so much weight!" ”
"I'm not thin, A-Niang said I was thin when I saw me back." Li Xia held Mrs. Xu, and Mrs. Yan stepped forward, first bowed to King Qin, and then bowed to Li Xia, "The princess has a good complexion, it doesn't matter if she is fat or thin, just have a good complexion." ”
"I'm worried about you......" Mrs. Xu's tears kept flowing, this was the first time she had seen her daughter since she came back from the wake.
"It's windy outside, go in and talk." Madam Yan interrupted Mrs. Xu's words, glanced at Lu Yi and Jin Cunyan, who were standing more than a dozen steps away, and turned sideways to let King Qin enter.
"Yes, yes, it's windy outside, don't blow the disease, let's go in and talk again, you send someone to come over in the morning, I'll let someone boil the soup, you have to make up for it, look at this thin one." Mrs. Xu touched the skinny Li Xia, and her heart was distressed and twitched one after another.
She, the youngest girl who has been pampered since she was a child, encountered such a major event as soon as she got married, how did she find it difficult for her to come over these few months? When she thought of this, her heart was breathless.
"How's the wife?" Li Xia glanced at Mrs. Guo, who was standing at the foot of the steps, and looked at Mrs. Yan and asked.
"It's not good, I haven't been awake for two or three days." Mrs. Yan glanced at Li Xia's gaze, but she didn't follow it, only raised her hand and pressed the corner of her eye with a handkerchief.
Mrs. Guo Er took out the handkerchief, shook it, stuffed it back again, turned her head to look at the red lacquered gate, and waited for everyone to go up the steps before carrying her skirt and following her into the village.
Mrs. Yan and Mrs. Xu first took Li Xia and King Qin to the upper room to visit Mrs. Yao, Li Xia took the decoction and fed it twice, handed it to the girl, and waited for the decoction before withdrawing from Mrs. Yan and the others and talking to the front yard house.
"It's been a while, hard work." Several people sat down, and Li Xia first bowed to Mrs. Yan to say their hard work.
"It's not hard." Mrs. Yan thought about what she wanted to say to her second son Li Wenli, who had received the envoy from the prince's mansion, and subconsciously glanced at King Qin, and swallowed back the words that came to her mouth.
"I heard that the second brother received an envoy by the prince's side." King Qin met Mrs. Yan's subconscious gaze, glanced at Li Xia, and said with a smile: "It's a good thing, although you always have to do some errands, not like in the past to study wholeheartedly, but there are a lot of erudite people around the prince, and this knowledge will not be delayed." ”
"If the prince says so, I can put some peace of mind." Mrs. Yan smiled wryly.
"Did you write to tell your uncle about my wife's illness?" Li Xia diverted from the conversation.
"Calculating the schedule, it's time for Xin'er to go to Qinfeng Road, the imperial doctor came this morning and said......" Mrs. Yan pressed her eyes and sighed sadly, "It's good to survive the wax moon, and today I asked the fifth brother to write a letter to your uncle." ”
"It's not easy for the ancestors to live to this lifespan. It's also a loss to move to this village outside the city early, otherwise, ......" Mrs. Guo couldn't hold it back, and Mrs. Yan, who had a sad face, couldn't wait to smack her face.
Li Xia turned her head to look at Mrs. Guo, Mrs. Guo avoided her gaze, Li Xia stared at her for a moment, then turned her head to look at Mrs. Yan and asked, "Has the third brother returned to the academy?" When I saw the fifth brother before, I said that the third brother hadn't gone back yet. ”
"Not yet, it is said that the ancestor is seriously ill, and he wants to do his filial piety at home." Mrs. Yan glanced at King Qin, who was shaking the folding fan for a while, and looked like he was out of the way.
"Brother Lin's father said that he wants to let Brother Lin go to Taixue to study, Taixue is the place to study and do knowledge, so what academy, how can anyone have serious learning?" When Mrs. Guo heard about her son, the hair on her body immediately stood up.
"It's too learned, it's easy to get in, but it's not appropriate for the third brother to learn too much." Li Xia said politely.
"If you say it's not suitable, it's not suitable?" Second Mrs. Guo looked at King Qin and snorted very lightly.
"I said it wasn't suitable, he wouldn't be able to get in. However," after a pause, Li Xia looked at Second Mrs. Guo, "You can ask the second uncle to ask the prince, or someone else, such as Su Gongzi or something, maybe it will work." ”
The folding fan in King Qin's hand stagnated, and he couldn't cry or laugh a little, what is this called?
Mrs. Guo pursed her lips tightly and glared at Li Xia angrily, but she didn't dare to let go of her hands and feet and spill back.
"It's not good to leave the ancestor's side, you go over and look at it, and I'll replace it in a while." The corners of Mrs. Yan's eyes were full of exhaustion, and she unceremoniously ordered Mrs. Guo.
