"Be of good cheer, I know the thoughts of you and your master, and I know your faithfulness."

Qin Peiyuan said, "You can also pass on the message to your master, just let your master rest assured that your loyalty can be exchanged for you more than you imagined."

"Your Highness." Wu Qi thanked him again, and then he dared to get up.

"Go ahead." Qin Peiyuan raised his hand.

Wu Qi responded, "Yes, retire from your position."

With that, he slowly retreated, opened the door and checked the surroundings, and when he was sure that no one was aware of it, he quickly walked out the door and disappeared into the night.

At this moment, a thin guard stepped into the temple gate.

Stepping on the snow that had accumulated more than half a foot thick at this time, the thin guard knocked on the door of the Zen courtyard where Qin Peiyou and He Yanxiu lived.

"Who?" He Yanxiu asked.

"My subordinates have just come down from the mountain, and a letter from the He Mansion has been delivered, asking my subordinates to hand it over to Lord He for personal observation." The guard replied.

[In view of the general environment,

The voice was loud and rough, which did not match his thin figure at this time.

When He Yanxiu heard this, he ordered Xing'an to open the door.

The skinny guard entered the door and handed the letter with both hands.

He Yanxiu took it, tore open the envelope stained with pulp lakes, took out a thin page inside, and looked at it for a moment by the candlelight on the table.

Qin Peiyou frowned slightly on the side, "But what's the matter?"

Today, he just left home and arrived at Yunling Temple, and the He family sent a letter this time, and Qin Peiyou was a little worried.

"It's not a big deal." He Yanxiu spread out the letter paper and put it on the table casually, "I just said that my grandmother had some old problems with spleen and stomach incompatibility in Su Ri, so I invited Ping'an Junjun to visit her home."

"He also said that although the Queen Mother couldn't come to Yunling Temple because of her health, she also invited her grandmother, grandmother, Princess Jia and others to enter the palace, and her grandmother will bring Ping'an Junjun with her tomorrow."

The Queen Mother invited everyone to the palace for a banquet tomorrow, and Qin Peiyou knew about it.

The first emperor passed away for many years, and the queen mother had a deep friendship with the first emperor, but she did not come to Yunling Temple every year, but invited one or two friends to gather in the palace.

This is the habit of the Queen Mother, and it is also his way of dissipating grief.

Everyone understands in their hearts.

"Hmm." Qin Peiyou nodded.

"It's hard work to send a letter, let's go to Xing'an for a hot tea first, and then go and rest."

Seeing He Yanxiu say this, Xing'an stood up, "Please come with me."

"Thank you, Lord He." The thin guard bowed his hand and strode away with Xing'an.

The cotton curtain at the door was lifted and then fell, and it shook for a long time because of the cold wind blowing outside.

He Yanxiu looked at the shaking curtain and pondered for a long time.

"What is my cousin thinking?" After Qin Peiyou drank the last bit of tea in the cup, he put down the cup, "It's not early, let's rest early."

Since I arrived at Yunling Temple one day early, I must get up early tomorrow to check how the places are located.

If the snow stops tomorrow, you also need to consider getting up in the morning to help the monks in the temple clear the snow, which can be regarded as doing your best to show the filial piety of the emperor's grandfather.

When Qin Peiyou said this, he had already taken off the boots on his feet.

"Not busy." He Yanxiu poured himself another cup of tea, and when he saw that there was not much tea in the pot, he even ordered someone to add some more hot water, "There will be guests coming later."

Guest?

Qin Peiyou was surprised, "Who?"

At this time, and in Yunling Temple, what guests will there be?

Just when Qin Peiyou was surprised, there was a creaking footsteps outside, and listening to the sound, there was more than one person coming.

A moment later, the cotton curtain at the door was lifted, and the three men entered the house in turn.

An Guogong, Su Wenxuan, and one more person is......

Qin Pei

When Yu saw the man's face clearly, his eyes widened.

How is he?

He's not......

……

The northwest wind blew all night, and the snow fell all night.

When the next morning arose, the wind stopped and the snow stopped, and the morning light was faintly revealed in the east.

Such a scene indicates that today is about a completely sunny day.

However, because it had been snowing for a whole day and a night, the snow on the ground was already a foot deep, and it became very difficult to walk when I got down to my calf.

And because of the heavy snow, coupled with the strong wind last night, there are meditation rooms in Yunling Temple that have been crushed, and even many branches have broken and fallen because of the snow.

For this reason, the monks of Yunling Temple were busy.

Zou Yunqi, the commander of the Imperial Forest Army, also led the Imperial Forest Army to help the monks clear the snow everywhere, repair the houses, and clean up the broken branches.

In his busyness, Zou Yunqi saw Xing'an and Rongliang.

"Commander Zou has worked hard." Xing'an and Rongliang complimented.

"It's duty, it's right." Zou Yunqi said politely, and then looked the two of them up and down, "It's that the two of you are not serving by His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and He Shilang, what are you doing here?"

"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and He Shilang are talking to the emperor." Rong Liang replied.

Xing'an also replied, "Lord He said that Yunling Temple is a quiet place for Buddhism, and there are many pines, cypresses, plum and bamboo, especially the snow water on the plum blossoms and bamboo leaves, which is the cleanest and has the fragrance of plum and bamboo, so we asked the two of us to come and collect some snow water for Lord He and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to make tea."

Many people believe that rain and snow are rootless water, and boiling it to make tea can feel more ethereal than the water used in wells or rivers.

In particular, the snow water on the plum blossom bamboo leaves is stained with the high elegance of the plum blossom bamboo leaves, adding a bit of clarity and beauty.

It is very common for people in high positions like He Yanxiu and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to do this kind of elegant thing.

Zou Yunqi nodded, "Then you guys will be busy first."

"Yes." Xing'an and Rongliang nodded.

After a while, Xing'an said, "Commander Zou, my lord brought a lot of Qibao tea when he came, please go to my lord's meditation room and use a bowl after Commander Zou is done."

Qibao tea, made of a variety of grains and grains ground into powder, not only has a rich and unique taste to drink, but also because of its composition, it tastes quite full to eat, and it is the favorite of people when they can't eat.

As the commander of the Imperial Forest Army, when Zou Yunqi is busy, this meal often cannot be eaten on time, whether it is dim sum, or Qibao tea, it has become Zou Yunqi's favorite.

Especially in such cold weather after snow, a steaming bowl of Qibao tea is an excellent enjoyment.

The gluttonous worm in Zou Yunqi's belly was hooked, and he nodded again and again, "If you go back to your family first, just say that I will go after I am done."

"Waiting for Commander Zou." Xing'an smiled and saluted.

Zou Yunqi continued to take the Imperial Forest Army to busy, while Xing'an and Rongliang continued to collect snow water.

And because they had been talking to Zou Yunqi for a while just now, the two of them were moving faster and faster at this time.
