Finally, I looked up and saw a young monk in a kasaya coming out of the palace gate.
He quickly went to meet him.
After the eunuch carrying the lantern and escorting his senior brother to the palace gate left, Qingyan was finally able to speak with his senior brother.
The weariness on his senior brother's face immediately disappeared.
I only said one sentence to him.
"Walk."
Once in the carriage, he leaned against the side and closed his eyes to rest. He looked more exhausted than if he had just attended a banquet than if he had given ten lectures in a row.
Qingyan rummaged through the carriage, picking through the gifts the emperor and empress dowager had brought from the palace.
Jade pendants, sachets, jade ruyi scepters, and all sorts of other things.
"There's a lot of stuff," he muttered.
Yun Wuyi's eyelashes drooped slightly.
Isn't that a lot?
This is a reward, a condescending look down and pity.
They simply wanted to humiliate him and warn him in this way.
The reason he is addressed as "Your Highness" now is only out of the current emperor's mercy.
If you really think about it, what kind of prince is he?
They were nothing but traitors and rebels from the previous dynasty.
"Take whatever you like."
As Qingyan rummaged through the items, he said:
"That's not a good idea. Miss Qi hasn't picked them up yet."
He frowned after saying that.
Since when did she have to pick up her senior brother's things first? Who does she think she is? She is the senior brother's most important junior brother.
He was about to reach in and take the golden unicorn out to play with.
The small wooden box was pressed down, and the lid was closed.
Qingyan was startled, then stunned.
"Senior brother, really? You're really going to save it for her?"
Yun Wuyi kept his eyes closed.
"Monks are detached from worldly desires."
"Hmph." Qingyan muttered to himself.
Whether I'm empty or not is unimportant, because you're not empty anyway.
.
Qi Su was sleeping in the rouge shop when Yan Xiaosan suddenly dragged her out of bed in the middle of the night.
"Master's injuries have flared up. Come with me quickly to take a look."
Qi Su was about to throw a tantrum and give the middle finger, but then she thought about it.
Huh, she's already able to enter the Qishan Prince's Mansion so quickly?
…
It turns out she was overthinking it.
In the guest courtyard of Xiangguo Temple, Qi Su stood under the Podocarpus macrophyllus tree outside the door, looking at Master Daoci, who had just taken off his kasaya inside the room.
no.
What about wealth and luxury?
Why are you back to your old ways of meditating and practicing Buddhism again?
Yan Xiaosan coughed.
"When Madam Qi learned that her master had returned, she cried and begged to come and see you. There was really no other way."
Qi Su: ...
That middle finger was eventually given away.
Since we're already here...
Qi Su didn't stand on ceremony.
She went into the guest room and took a look around. As expected of the Great Xiangguo Temple, these conditions are miles ahead of the small Zen monastery in Jincheng.
She sat on the cushion, holding a cup of tea.
"Your injury has flared up? What kind of injury is it?" She couldn't remember him having any injuries.
Qingyan: "It's an arrow wound."
Wasn't the arrow wound fake?
But Qi Su did indeed smell a hint of blood.
She stepped forward and tried to lift Yun Wuyi's clothes.
My wrist was grabbed by another warm, large hand.
The man stopped her movements, his eyes as deep and unfathomable as the sea.
"It's alright, no need to look."
Qi Su: "Let me see."
Qingyan pursed his lips.
“Princess Anle has already seen them all. Lady Qi, it seems you are not as good as Princess Anle.”
Huh? What do you mean by that?
She narrowed her eyes, her expression dangerous.
"You just got back to the capital and went to see your fiancée? Do you know how much I've missed you and how much I've been waiting for you?"
Yun Wuyi glanced at Qingyan.
"Don't listen to his nonsense."
Qingyan was unconvinced.
"How could I lie? We were already in the carriage when Princess Anle sent a eunuch to deliver medicine, saying that the wound should be cleaned properly and the medicine applied every day, and that we should go back to her for a follow-up visit in ten days. The medicine chest is right there!"
Oh ho.
Things are getting interesting.
Qi Su looked at Yun Wuyi.
He pinched the knuckles of his left hand with his right hand, making a cracking sound.
“My lord, do you remember? I told you long ago that I am not some delicate little lady. I have plenty of strength and means.”
Yun Wuyi sighed silently.
He stared at her. "That's not true."
Qi Su sneered and pointed towards the door.
"You—all of you, get out of here!"
She suddenly seemed like a different person. Just like the demoness who revealed her true form in the story told by the cook at Huatan Temple.
It looks very fierce, with long teeth and claws, like it's about to eat people.
Without waiting for anyone to pull him, Qingyan quietly slipped out of the room.
Hmph, isn't it true that she has to pick out everything from the box?
Go ahead and choose, choose carefully.
It seemed that only the two of them were left in the room.
Qi Su pointed to the roof beam.
"You get out of here too."
Yan Xiaosi: ...touched her nose and drifted away like a leaf.
.
Qi Su tossed the teacup aside.
He said to Yun Wuyi, "Take off your clothes."
The Zen master frowned and repeated the same sentence.
"No need."
Qi Su beckoned to him with her finger.
"Master, have the Gu worms been too well-behaved lately? Have you forgotten that I am actually a little demoness, not as easy to talk to as the princess of the capital?"
She frowned, her eyes sparkling, her anger appearing both genuine and feigned.
Yun Wuyi remained silent for a moment.
He granted her wish to undress, since she was going to take a bath anyway.
Qi Su got her wish and saw the arrow wound in his chest and abdomen.
This is a fresh wound; it doesn't look like it has healed yet.
He was not injured at Qingyuan Post Station. He continued his journey without incident.
Qi Su tilted her head and looked at him for a moment.
"You did it yourself after arriving in Ganjing?"
Yun Wuyi remained silent, tacitly agreeing.
Qi Su: "You know very well what kind of temper the emperor has in the capital right now."
No good person would shoot themselves in the foot for no reason.
This wound must have been inflicted by himself to avoid the emperor's suspicion.
They arrived in Ganjing on the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, and now it has only been half a month.
To make the injury look like it did a month ago, they must have used some secret medicine and suffered some pain.
Yun Wuyi stood in front of the candle and saw that her anger had subsided after she examined the wound.
Sure enough, his aggressive behavior just now was all an act.
However, although she didn't say much, she understood her situation.
She understands without needing to explain.
This greatly alleviated his frustration in the palace that night.
Yun Wuyi looked down at her.
"Do you want to look at it some more?"
Qi Su stared at the wound.
"Did Princess Anle touch it?"
Yun Wuyi: "She did it to get a medical examination."
Qi Su: "Oh—so you touched it?"
She maliciously blew a breath onto Yun Wuyi's wound.
The man in front of him suddenly tightened his chest and abdomen, took a step back, and hurriedly pulled his clothes up.
The voice also carried a chilling tone.
"You've seen it all, now let's go out."
The young woman inside the room pouted, her eyes glistening with tears.
"You don't love me anymore, you're so mean to me."
She whimpered with her head down as she rummaged through the small medicine box that Qingyan had instructed her to use.
Yun Wuyi had already gathered his inner garments.
Place another box in front of her.
