"Nothing, I don't blame you. They don't like me, and I don't like being with those who climb the power ladder. "If that's the case, I won't be happy even if I ride in a luxurious carriage."
The corner of Bai Zhixi's mouth curled into a sweet smile. His voice was as gentle as the spring breeze, but it still did not bring any warmth to anyone.
She lightly patted the back of Shangguan Jingyan's hand before slowly turning around and following the crowd into Jade Cloud Temple.
"Xi Er... "I .."
Shangguan Jingyan looked at Bai Zhixi's leaving figure, his heart feeling wronged. Tears flowed down uncontrollably, wetting the front of her clothes.
"Don't cry, she has just returned to normal and it's hard to get into her heart. What happened yesterday was not entirely your fault. If not for your sister knocking you out, your relationship with Xi Er would not have ended up like this. "
Shangguan Jingyan looked at the silk handkerchief in front of him, then went over to look for his reputation, only to see Dongfang Chen in front of him.
Under the golden sunlight, his black hair was inlaid with a precious purple gold crown, and his body was covered in snow-white silk. She wore a long, white silk ribbon tied around her waist, and a piece of white jade with goat fat. She wore a snow-white mink cloak over it. He had long eyebrows, long, thin, gentle eyes, a delicate nose, and fair skin. Gentle and charming, beautiful beyond compare.
Shangguan Jingyan looked at him, as though she was drunk, and was completely captivated by his beauty.
"What's wrong?"
Dongfang Chen saw the lady in front of him looking at him with a gaze filled with desire, her two blush appearing on her fair face, she looked like a ripe apple, sweet and alluring.
For a moment, he couldn't help but swallow his saliva. However, he still had a hint of rationality as he stretched out his hand and waved it in front of her eyes.
"Ah .." I... I am thinking about how to let Xi Er open the knot in his heart. Looking at her like this everyday, I feel a wave of discomfort in my heart .. "
Shangguan Jingyan's face and neck reddened, and he casually gave an excuse to ease the awkward situation. She would never admit that she was stunned by his beauty. It was too embarrassing.
"Then... "Your face .."
Dongfang Chen suddenly leaned forward, his face was so close, he could even see the fine fur on her face and smell the faint fragrance on her body. His mind was blank as he uncontrollably asked about the language.
His breath was so warm that it sprayed all over her face. Shangguan Jingyan was flustered for a moment, and didn't dare to raise his head to look at him.
"Maybe it's because I've been sitting in the carriage for too long and the air is not flowing. Crown Prince, Jing Yan will take his leave first. "
With that said, she bent down and circled around Dongfang Chen, and then anxiously ran into the mountain gate.
Dongfang Chen, who was standing on the spot, looked at her figure that was escaping, and lightly shook his head. His deep black eyes were as unfathomable as the ocean, his lips curled up into a faint smile, and he slowly followed her in.
At this moment, the Biyun Temple's entrance returned to its previous silence. Standing in front of the door to the Biyun Temple was a tall, solitary old tree. The only thing left behind was a row of ink-like footprints on the pure white snow.
Immediately, a bright yellow figure walked out from behind the tree. Watching Dongfang Chen's back as he left, a pair of eyes that did not look like clear water squinted slightly. With a sinister look in his eyes, he stomped his feet in anger and angrily walked through the mountain gate.
Entering the mountain gate, the eyes looked around, the resplendent glazed roof tiles, vermilion walls, and majestic temples were all solemn and solemn. On the door, there were three large golden words, "Jade Cloud Temple". It was shockingly eye-catching.
As the Empress Dowager was getting on in her old age, she had gone with the dust to the quarters to rest. However, they were guided by the little monk to see the inner workings of the Biyun Temple.
Bai Zhixi walked in the middle of the crowd, listening to the small monk talk, suddenly sleepiness assaulted him, and he strongly supported his eyelids as he finished listening.
The first step into the temple was the Heavenly King's Hall, while the left and right sides of the Heavenly King's Hall were the bell tower and the drum tower. The Heavenly King Hall was the Great Hall with the 'Three Lives Buddha' in the middle. Entering the great hall, what entered his sight were three buddhist statues. Their chests were exposed, their knees were crossed, and their hands were clasped together. Their smiles were vivid and full of interest. Walking past the Great Hall of Treasure, one would reach the Grand Hall of Warriors, where one could pay homage to the Thousand-hand Thousand-Eyed Guan Shiyin. Opposite Guan Shiyin was a golden-armored king. His entire body was covered with armor, giving him a majestic and awe-inspiring presence. The last to enter the temple was the Hall of Healing, where it offered worship to the medicine master, Buddha, who had extended his life without any disasters.
After visiting the temple, the little monk's rambling ended. Each of the young miss's faces were filled with exhaustion as they were helped back to their own residences by their respective maidservant s.
"Oh, my waist! I'm so tired, I really have nothing to do after eating, isn't it just a run-down temple? What's there to visit? "
In a quiet and quiet courtyard, Bai Zhixi sprawled on the wooden bed. The stiff wooden board was covered with a cloth that was as thin as paper.
"Miss, this Jade Cloud Temple is the greatest temple in the world. It is said that the commoners are only allowed to enjoy the incense three times a year, and you can even hear Master Pu Hai's Buddhist teachings. For the commoners, you need Master Pu Hai's approval towards the future, your marriage, and the candidates for each empress. It was already the day of incense, the entire temple was packed with people, we couldn't even squeeze in. It was already our greatest fortune to be able to stay here for a few days. You, take a good rest! Stop complaining. "
As Lan Yi cleaned the room, he also taught her the reason why the Jade Cloud Temple was so popular with the common people.
"Who is that Master Pu Hai?"
Hearing Lan Yi say that, Bai Zhixi sat up all of a sudden and hurriedly asked.
If he really could see through her in the future, would he be able to see through her as a soul that was only attached to Bai Zhixi's body, and was borrowing her soul to live?
Thinking of the Buddhist methods to deal with the soul, whether it was a fire or being sealed in a jar, never to reincarnate. Suddenly, he felt a chill run down his spine. His originally pink face turned deathly pale, and bean-sized sweat began to flow down his ears. He sat on the bed and trembled, trying to not arouse any tender feelings from others.
"Miss, what's wrong?"
After Lan Yi finished answering her question, he did not hear her turn her head around.
Startled, he quickly threw away the clothes he was currently tidying and rushed towards her like a hot knife through butter. Her hand was as cold as the ice on a room pillar, but her forehead felt like it was being roasted. She knew that she was getting hot.
Without giving it much thought, he walked over to the medicine box placed aside. But just as she released Bai Zhixi's body, she slumped onto the bed, unconscious.
"Miss .."
Zi Li, who had just brought water in, heard her shout and threw the bowl of water in his hands away. He was afraid that he would be a step too late, as if he had missed something.
"What's wrong?"
Zi Li entered the room and saw the completely pale Bai Zhixi lying on the bed, unconscious. He was shocked and his eyes burned through Lan Yi.
"Miss got a fever, but today we left in a hurry, without any medicines to bring along with it. "You stay here and watch the young lady, I'll go get the medicine from the imperial physician."
"Alright!"
As soon as Lan Yi finished speaking, he rushed out. However, they met An Lan, the personal maid of the princess of the same courtyard, as well as Hui Xiang, Shangguan Jingyan's female servant.
The three of them hurriedly ran out of the small courtyard with their heads down. However, the door was too small and the three of them collided into each other. In an instant, they fell to the ground on their backs.
"Pa! Pa!"
Immediately, the clear sound of a slap resounded through the courtyard. Even the birds that were resting under the eaves were frightened away by the sound.
"Who are you? No eyes? "Oh my, did you smash me to death?"
Lan Yi and Hui Xiang struggled to get up from the ground with their heads full of water.
They all looked up at the same time to see An Lan being helped by two palace maids. She was cursing at them, but her eyes were filled with disdain and indifference. Clearly, she was the one who had slapped them.
"Pa .."
"Who are you? How could he just randomly hit someone? It was clearly the three of us who ran into each other, so how can you be so unreasonable? Do you really think that we are easy to bully? "
Instantly, another clear and cold slap resounded in his ear, Hui Xiang by the side slowly retracted her hand, her eyes filled with anger that shot into the sky.
"You actually hit me?"
"It was you, what's wrong?"
"You two, hold her for me. How dare you hit me? Don't you know who I am?"
An Lan glanced behind her, and the two palace maids behind pulled Hui Xiang to her left and right. In an instant, they had formed a group, blocking the way out of the hospital.
"Stop!"
Lan Yi, who was standing by the side, looked at the few people who were fighting. Because he was worried about his young miss, he raised his voice, causing the few people who were arguing to stop, and raised their heads to look at her.
"My two elder sisters, it's my fault. Can you let me go through with it? My young mistress has gotten hot, and needs to find an imperial physician urgently." "In the future, I will definitely pay you a visit and apologize."
With much difficulty, Lan Yi suppressed the raging flames in his heart, forced himself to smile, and said with a slightly gentle tone.
As soon as she finished speaking, she nodded and smiled at them before hurriedly leaving. She didn't want to be stopped by the palace maids behind An Lan.
"What does it have to do with you? You have to apologize to me today? Otherwise, don't even think about leaving this place! "
At this time, An Lan had already seen Lan Yi clearly and already knew that she was Bai Zhixi's personal servant. A burst of anger rose in her heart; It would be better if Bai Zhixi died so that he could take revenge for the princess.
"Don't force me!"
Lan Yi clenched her hands tightly and gritted her teeth. If it wasn't for the young miss telling him to not stir up trouble outside and to not let anyone find fault with the Prime Minister's Estate, she would have definitely taught this reckless woman a lesson.
"So what if I force you? It was best that the fox spirit of your young lady died early, lest it be born in this world to harm others. No one will be able to think of this today ..? "
"Bang .."
An Lan hadn't even finished speaking when she was sent flying by Lan Yi's palm. With a bang, he fell under the Plum Blossom Tree in the courtyard. His hair was let loose and he spat out a mouthful of blood, staining his palace maid attire red.
