After leaving the Guanyin Temple, the two went next door to buy a love knot.

The Guanyin Temple on Queling Mountain has two unique features: one is to pray for children, and the other is to pray for marriage. It is said that if you buy a love knot at the Quexian Bridge here, your marriage will come true, and the mandarin ducks will become a perfect couple and the couple will grow old together.

Is it so magical?

I don’t know if it was a god or not, but I really saw two pairs of white-haired elderly couples coming back to fulfill their vows. It was said that they came all the way from Ao County in the west.

Yang Yanzong and Su Ci listened and walked down hand in hand from the mountain gate along the stream of people. The rugged mountain path was crowded with people and the incense was extremely popular. From a distance, they could see the dazzling red little love knots hanging in rows, as bright as a blazing fire.

Young men and women in pairs, either shyly or sweetly, reached out carefully to take one from the shelf.

It was hard for Yang Yanzong and Su Ci to ignore it as they walked hand in hand past the Quexian Bridge, so they bought one with great interest.

Yang Yanzong threw a dime of silver over. Su Ci looked around and took a pair from the top. She picked them up and looked at them for a while with a smile, then exchanged a glance with Yang Yanzong. Each of them could clearly see each other's smiles in their eyes.

Then, they followed the example of the people around them, tying it on their belts, you tie it for me and I tie it for you.

There was a small love knot with a long silk ribbon hanging down. Yang Yanzong was wearing a dark blue slim-fitting robe with tied sleeves. It didn't match the outfit very well, but he looked very happy from the way he looked at it.

Su Ci couldn't help but laugh.

Then the two of them bought a love lock.

This was introduced by the stall owner. The main reason was that the two people were too eye-catching. The man was imposing and had a cold temperament, while the woman was dressed in men's clothes and was elegant and graceful, but she was more delicate and beautiful than anything he had ever seen. She had more than a dozen followers with swords behind her, and it was obvious that they were not ordinary people.

There were also silver coins thrown casually by the corners, which stood out among the pile of copper coins. The stall owner greeted them enthusiastically: "There are also love locks, which are used to seal a marriage and a long life together. Look, those two old men and women came here to fulfill their love lock wishes!"

He pointed backwards and after his sight passed the Quexian Bridge, he saw a ginkgo tree with lush branches and leaves. It was the junction of spring and summer, and the tree was lush and green, spreading like a huge umbrella, covered with small copper locks connected with red silk. The whole tree was bright red, and when the wind blew, the red silk rippled and rustled.

"This marriage tree is a treasure of our Guanyin Temple. It is eight hundred years old and very powerful! You two should hang a love lock. The love knot and the love lock are a pair!"

It's a rare chance for me to be superstitious, so I might as well be superstitious to the end!

This lock is hung by a man and has to be thrown up. It is said that the higher the better. Yang Yanzong took the small copper lock hung with red silk, shook it, picked up a pen and wrote his and Su Ci's names, and then actually pulled her over together.

Others tried to throw the lock but couldn't hit the target. In the noisy crowd, Yang Yanzong stood still and looked at her for two seconds, then held her hand. Su Ci felt her hand being lifted up, and the small copper lock formed a very beautiful parabola and hung firmly on a thick branch at the top of the old ginkgo tree. It was the highest point.

"Wow--"

There were exclamations all around.

I really didn't expect that he would be willing to do such a thing.

Su Ci laughed so hard that she was still laughing even when they came down the mountain and rode on a horse together.

After the rain, the air was fresh, the roadside was lined with dark green hills, shady trees, and colorful wild flowers dotted the lush green grass. When the mountain breeze blew, the scenery rose and fell like waves. Although the scenery of Queshan County was not as good as that of Changyi, it had its own wild charm in this season.

The purpose of going out today was to relax, and there was no rush at all. After coming down from Queling Mountain, the two rode their horses at a leisurely pace. Su Ci untied the knot of love and played with the tassels with her fingers in circles.

Yang Yanzong embraced her and rode for a while. He suddenly asked, "Were you very angry with me before?"

I feel a little more relaxed, and when I recall many things now, they have a different taste.

By now, Yang Yanzong already knows her very well. It is true that Su Ci is free and easy, but she is also very stubborn in some aspects. If she really doesn't want to do something, no one can force her.

——No wonder she and Ren can become good friends. One is gentle on the outside but strong on the inside, while the other is cunning on the outside but tough on the inside. They seem to be able to do anything and are always smiling, but once it comes to their bottom line, they will not give in.

She may appear cheerful on the surface, but actually she may not take you seriously at all.

Su Ci smiled. Is it necessary to know her so well?

"No, there is no such thing. Don't accuse me of anything! It's not true at all."

Of course Su Ci didn't admit it. Only a fool would admit it. She turned around and glanced at him, then quickly got off the horse and ran away laughing.

There are no hot springs in Queshan, but there is a Fairy Lake, which is said to have beautiful scenery.

When we got there and took a look, we found it was really nice. It was a group of lakes of different sizes. It was so big that there was no end in sight. The water was extremely clear, and there were green willows shading the lakeside. The clear water in front of us reflected the light blue sky, clean and clear like glass.

The most important thing is the wildness. Houhu Lake is not a scenic spot. The lakeside is surrounded by water villas and pavilions built by wealthy families, one at a distance. However, the winding lakeshore and the wild grass and bushes increase privacy for everyone.

The weather was getting warmer, and when Su Ci saw such beautiful water, she wanted to swim. After all, she had been here for so long, but she had never had a good time swimming!

Yang Yanzong had already bought a monastery by the lake in advance. The monastery was built around a lake, so she could swim however she liked.

Su Ci didn't even change her clothes. She threw off her coat and boots and slid into the lake. She swam a long way in the cool water, feeling very refreshed. She laughed happily and turned back to wave, "Come on, too~"

Yang Yanzong also went down.

Chase her away.

Su Ci's swimming skills are excellent, just like a swimming fish, extremely flexible. Once she enters the water, if Yang Yanzong does not use his internal energy to cheat, he may not be able to catch her.

She laughed loudly and performed a fancy swimming show for him. The two of them chased and played, and finally touched each other on the beams under the water pavilion. The accompanying soldiers had quietly faded away. The setting sun was reflected on the water, and the wind was rustling. The two of them smiled and slowly kissed each other.

They kissed in the water, and finally Yang Yanzong held her waist and swam to the vertical ladder, then carried her horizontally into the master bedroom.

The bedding in the bedroom had been replaced with new ones long ago. The window of the outer room was half open, with a faint scent of grass. The two of them rolled down on the big bed, kissing and caressing each other, lingering to the extreme and combining together.

It went from gentle to intense, and only gradually subsided as the night deepened and I was sweating profusely.

Su Ci had fallen into a deep sleep. She rolled up the quilt, revealing her slender white shoulder blades. He kissed her along her shoulder blades, and then went all the way down along her spine, kissing all the sweaty areas, wiping them carefully, and then coming back to hold her in his arms.

He listened quietly to the sounds of the wind, the water, and her shallow, long breathing.

The relationship between the two seemed to have a little more lubrication, a little more tenderness, and a little more sweetness.

Yang Yanzong couldn't say it, but he could feel that the emotions that had been swirling in his heart suddenly felt much better.

It was the first time for both of them to experience marriage and love, and he groped his way forward. Fortunately, he did not push her away.

He thought so before closing his eyes and falling asleep.

…

They embraced each other and slept soundly all night, and only set out on their return journey early the next morning.

At dawn, we rose up amidst the beautiful scenery of lakes and mountains, and listened to the brisk sound of horses' hooves as they galloped back. It started to drizzle in the middle of the morning, and the group put on straw raincoats and hats.

But you know what, walking like this is quite a different experience.

Su Ci was naughty. When she saw a lotus pond by the roadside, she ran to pick a lotus leaf and put it on her head.

Yang Yanzong let her do whatever she wanted, allowing her to run and play happily until the evening before returning to the main group.

They arrived in Yangdu on the second day, and after finishing their official business, they returned home hand in hand.

Go and pay your respects to Yang Chongying first.

After entering Hongrui Hall, Yang Yanzong wanted to stop when he reached the courtyard, but Su Ci pulled his hand, and he hesitated for a moment, then followed her in.

——After the unremitting efforts of Yang Yanzhen and Su Ci, Yang Chongying's attitude, which had been annoyed, angry, and scolding, had almost softened.

After entering the house, Yang Chongying glanced at Yang Yanzong and ignored him.

But Su Ci was a smart girl. She greeted Yang Chongying with a smile, and then told him a lot of interesting things about this trip. The rain and the Fairy Lake were the main points. But at the end, she changed the subject and glanced at Yang Yanzong: "On this trip to Queshan, we also went to worship the Guanyin Temple. It is said that the Guanyin there is very effective in giving birth to children."

She added with a smile: "My husband said that we should have a child."

Speaking of this, Yang Chongying finally couldn't sit still anymore. He couldn't help but turn his head to look at Yang Yanzong. It was true that he had a grandson, but he was from the second house after all, which had a different meaning from the eldest son and the legitimate grandson.

Yang Zhongying's beard twitched for a moment, and after a while he said to Yang Yanzong with a stern face, "It's time to hurry up!" He looked a little embarrassed, and turned his head to look to the other side, "How old are you this year?"

Yang Yanzong was a little bit excited and immediately bowed his hands solemnly: "Yes, the child knows!"

Although, soon after, Yang Chongying said he was tired and asked them to go back, but this was the first time it happened, and it meant the ice was broken.

"Father, please take a good rest. I am leaving now."

Yang Yanzong took Su Ci out of Hongrui Hall. The setting sun reflected on her rosy face and her eyes were curved. Yang Yanzong smiled, took her hand and quickly returned to the main courtyard.

But Su Ci soon regretted it.

As Yang Yanzong's enthusiasm grew, he consulted many doctors and finally came up with two tonic decoctions.

One bowl per person every night.

“…”

Su Ci was not happy to drink it, although she had looked at the recipe and it was indeed a recipe for nourishing yin and nourishing essence, and drinking it for a period of time would be good for the body.

But the problem is that it tastes bad!

Although Su Ci was not very happy at first, she still pinched her nose and drank it when she thought of his prayers.

Yang Yanzong was very happy.

But after a long time, that little bit of emotion could no longer be tolerated. The medicine was thick, dark brown, pungent in the nose, astringent, bitter, spicy, and a little sweet. It tasted weird, just like drinking bitter medicine paste with a little sugar added.

Su Ci was about to vomit from drinking. She couldn't take it anymore, brother. After drinking for a few days, she couldn't hold on any longer.

"Okay, that's about it."

Su Ci put down the bowl and refused to drink. She complained: "It would be more practical if you did less."

She had said it a long time ago, but Yang Yanzong thought she was coaxing him. Actually it’s not true. Even if the two of them avoided dangerous days, this method was not very safe. Plus, sometimes they got interested in him, so they didn't avoid him 100%.

But I never won.

In fact, the reason here is probably that he does it too frequently.

He always pestered her, at least two or three times a day.

Yes, his body is healthy enough, his kidney energy is sufficient and he doesn't look tired at all. But it takes time for his penis to mature. If you do a modern test, the doctor will ask you to store it for three to seven days, five to seven days is best. If it's less than three days, the penis is not mature and the data will plummet.

Therefore, it is scientifically based that it is difficult to get pregnant if you have sex too frequently.

When planning for pregnancy nowadays, doctors will consider various factors and recommend that you have sex every other day, as this is the easiest way to get pregnant.

"Really? You didn't lie to me?"

Yang Yanzong was skeptical. In fact, the old doctor had mentioned this to Yang Yanzong vaguely, but he didn't quite believe it.

Su Ci rolled over on the bed and wrinkled her nose at him, "Go ask Doctor Kou."

Yang Yanzong sat on the edge of the bed, thinking seriously. She rolled back and sat on his thighs, holding his face and kissed him, "Yes, it's none of your business. Don't think too much~"

She smiled and said this to him at last.

There is no such thing as a heavy sin of killing.

Yang Yanzong said "hmm", and suddenly felt happy. He asked Su Ci: "How long will it take for the baby to appear the next day as you said?"

How long does it usually take?

Su Ci said: "Within a year, or half a year if it's fast."

For a normal couple, the probability is about 20% per month, 70% in half a year, and 85 to 90% in a year.

She coaxed him: "But don't be too anxious. If you are too anxious, your emotions will also be affected."

"Really?"

One year is a bit long.

But she coaxed him with soft words, and Yang Yanzong suddenly felt sweet in his heart, and felt that a year was not a long time. He said, "Then I'll listen to you."

Su Ciji laughed, and the two of them touched foreheads and rolled onto the bed and hugged each other.

…

In the early spring of the following year, Su Ci became pregnant.

In the same month, there were rumors that Ji Yuanhao was going to establish a new queen.
