Chapter 344: Western Regions and Relatives
γChinese Networkγ, to provide you with wonderful reading.
At night, on the top floor of the Star Pavilion, Daoist Zongyun and Princess Chaoyun stood opposite each other, and each other's faces were a little solemn.
Daoist Zongyun looked at Princess Chaoyun and took the lead in speaking: "The holy decree has been issued, ordering Her Royal Highness the princess to go to the Western Regions to make peace, but I didn't expect the date set by the emperor to be so urgent, and he will leave in three days." As the so-called gentleman has no jokes, I am afraid that this matter is no longer recoverable. β
Princess Chaoyun's face was calm, and she was still unfazed: "My father has an order, and I should obey it." And from Taichang Temple to the Western Regions, there is no difference, just from one cage to another. β
Daoist Zongyun frowned, and after a moment of silence, he spoke: "Your Royal Highness Princess, the emperor still cares about your ......."
Princess Chaoyun shook her head: "Abandoned me in Taichang Temple for sixteen years, and never saw me once in the future, this is my father's concern for me"
Zong Yundao sighed and bowed his head silently.
Princess Chaoyun faced Daoist Zongyun and suddenly bowed deeply.
"Sixteen years of adults have taken good care of Chaoyun, Chaoyun has always regarded adults as the only relatives in this world, this is a long way to go to the Western Regions, there will be no time in the future, I hope you take care of yourself!"
Daoist Zongyun hurriedly stretched out his hand to help Princess Chaoyun up, and there were already tears in his eyes.
"Old and incompetent, I failed to protect Her Royal Highness the Princess!"
Princess Chaoyun shook her head: "How ruthless the Emperor's House is, I can grow up outside the palace, which can be regarded as a blessing in misfortune." Adults keep the pure land of Taichang Temple for Chaoyun, if it weren't for adults, Chaoyun would have been out of this world for a long time. β
Zong Yundao sighed and looked at the princess in front of him with a reluctant face.
Princess Chaoyun grew up in Taichang Temple since she was a child, and to him she was like her own daughter, and now her daughter is going to marry thousands of miles away in the Western Regions, how can she not worry about her parents.
"Your Royal Highness Princess, the old minister is incompetent, so I can only accompany you here. β
Daoist Zongyun bowed down again and apologized: "It's not that the old minister doesn't want to accompany you to the Western Regions, it's just that when the old minister was driven out of the Sumeru Palace by his master, he swore that he would never step into the northern foot of Kunlun again in this life. β
Princess Chaoyun nodded: "Your Excellency, you don't have to blame yourself, I understand that you have your own hardships, and you will be escorted by General Lin and the Jingqi of the border pass along the way, and you will be fine." β
"Although the Border Pass Elite Cavalry is strong, after all, it is just an ordinary person, and it is no match for the monks with magical powers. β
Daoist Zongyun shook his head: "But the sky finally has eyes, let the old minister find a suitable candidate, as long as he accompanies the princess, the old minister can rest assured." β
Princess Chaoyun was stunned: "The right person, what do you mean?"
Zong Yundao showed a hint of an embarrassed smile on his face: "Please forgive the old minister for betraying him, after this matter is foolproof, I will report to Her Royal Highness the Princess." β
Princess Chaoyun looked at the old man in front of her, and after a moment of silence, she spoke: "The hour is not early, I am going to Yaotai to bathe and fast, and prepare for tomorrow's sacrifice." β
......
At the same time, in the courtyard not far from the Star Pavilion, Wu Ming began to meditate cross-legged in the direction of the Star Pavilion, practicing the exercises.
"Childe, you're practicing again, it's really hard. β
Liyue appeared at the gate of the courtyard and walked to the courtyard with a tray.
Wu Ming opened his eyes and looked at Liyue: "Liyue girl, I was about to look for you, what is the content of the people in the palace who came to preach the holy decree today?"
Liyue put the tray on the stone table, and then shook her head: "When the decree was delivered, only Princess Chaoyun, Lord Tai Changqing and Huang Gonggong were present, and Lord Tai Changqing never told us clearly, only mentioning 'Princess Westward'." β
"The princess goes west?"
Wu Ming repeated, and immediately frowned, could it be that Duke Chaoyun was going to leave Taichang Temple?
That's not good, I haven't figured out the whereabouts of Twilight yet!
Wu Ming looked at Liyue: "Liyue girl, Princess Chaoyun will go to those places on weekdays, if it is possible, I want to see her." β
"You want to see the princess?"
Liyue was taken aback: "This is a coincidence, princess, she also wants to see you!"
"Really?" Wu Ming was stunned, he didn't expect Princess Chaoyun to see him too, so it would be much easier to do now.
Liyue nodded: "Yes, Her Royal Highness the Princess heard about you saving everyone on Wosongping, and wants to see you in person to express her gratitude." β
"It's just a gesture. β
Wu Ming said politely, and then immediately said, "Then when can I see the princess?"
"Actually, Princess Chaoyun is usually on the Star Pavilion, and she rarely goes out unless she wants to participate in memorial activities. β
After Liyue said a word, she put on a mysterious expression: "But tonight she is going to Yaotai to fast." The princess has commanded me to take you to Yaotai to meet her. β
Wu Ming was not clear enough about the layout of Taichang Temple, and asked: "Yaotai...... What is it?"
Liyue said with a smile: "It is a courtyard not far from the Star Pavilion, because there is a spring in the courtyard, so it is named Yaotai." β
Wu Ming frowned, could it be the pool he fell into at the beginning, wasn't that the place where Princess Chaoyun bathed?
Looking up at Liyue, a trace of doubt appeared on Wu Ming's face: "Princess Chaoyun, does she really want to see me at Yaotai?"
"Of course it's true!"
Liyue's face was straight: "You eat these pastries quickly, and I will take you to Yaotai." β
Wu Ming glanced down at the tray on the table and shook his head: "I'm not hungry yet, you can take me to Yaotai now." β
"That's not going to work!"
Liyue's big eyes widened: "It took me an afternoon to make these pastries, and they must all be eaten!"
Wu Ming reluctantly agreed. Sit down at the stone table and open the food box and start tasting the pastries inside.
After eating two bites, Wu Ming's eyes lit up: "Hmm, it's really delicious!"
Liyue snorted, with a smug face: "I said it, the pastries I made are a must in Taichang Temple~"
Wu Ming took a piece of pastry and looked at Liyue: "Another day, I will learn the pastry method from you." β
Liyue sneered and laughed: "Wu Gongzi, you still have to learn to make pastries, laugh at me, hahaha......"
"What's so strange about that. β
Wu Ming pursed his lips, ate the pastries in the box in two bites, and then stood up: "Okay, let's go see Princess Chaoyun." β
"Wait a little longer. β
Liyue shook her head: "Her Royal Highness the princess should still be bathing now, and after she bathes and changes clothes, I will take you over." β
Sure enough, it was the place where Princess Chaoyun bathed!
Wu Ming's heart suddenly became even more bottomless, looking at Liyue who was smiling in front of him, he always felt that something was not quite right with her.
Liyue looked up at the bright moon in the sky, as if estimating the time, and then reached out with a smile and grabbed Wu Ming's sleeve and dragged him out of the courtyard.
