Chapter 546 What happened in the Dongchu Palace?
The convoy traveled for more than an hour and finally entered the capital of Dongchu, and finally stopped in front of the largest inn, Dongfeng Inn.
Everyone got off the carriage one by one.
Zi Tong smiled and said, "This prince has already asked all the guests at the inn to leave. Everyone, please stay here tonight. Tomorrow morning, follow me to the palace to meet my father."
At this time, it was almost noon, and he had asked the inn to prepare a sumptuous welcoming banquet. After everyone had a short rest, they went to the first floor to have dinner together.
"Okay, Prince Zi Tong, let's go upstairs and rest for a while." Yuan Xiaonian took his men upstairs.
The guest rooms upstairs have all been tidied up and the doors are all open for everyone to choose from.
Xiao Jingwen and his guards lived on the first floor.
Yuan Xiaonian of course chose adjacent rooms one by one so that everyone could take care of each other. Li Suining and Fuxing lived in the same room.
After choosing the rooms, everyone did not rest in their own rooms, but gathered together in Yuan Xiaonian's room.
"What does it mean that the Prince of Dongchu arranges for us to stay in the inn for one night?" Bai Yu'an spoke first. Obviously, this was not against the rules.
Yuan Xiaonian shook his head, "There must be some unavoidable reason."
But there is one thing he is very sure of, "But no matter what, I think he will do his best to protect our safety."
Bai Yu'an nodded in agreement. In fact, staying outside the palace for a night was exactly what he wanted. He wanted to find the contact point of Feiyun Sect in the city and leave some message for his other brothers.
Or maybe they were already waiting there for him and Li Suining.
But Bai Yu'an felt that this possibility was relatively small, and the other brothers might have walked behind them for some reason.
"What do you want to do in the afternoon? Do you want to go out for a walk?" Yuan Xiaonian asked again.
Li Suining immediately agreed with joy, "Okay, okay, I want to go for a walk on the street. It's really hot here, and I feel like my clothes are a bit too thick."
As soon as she finished speaking, there was a knock on the door.
"Your Highness, Princess Suining, I am accompanying Crown Prince Zitong. He just sent me to buy you some light clothes. Would you like to change into something?"
Yuan Xiaonian couldn't help but laugh, "This Zi Tong is really thoughtful."
"I'll go open the door." Bai Yu'an stood up and opened the door. Sure enough, he saw a young girl standing outside. She had a round face and round eyes, and looked very cute.
"Greetings, Master Imperial Master. My name is Baozhu. These clothes are also for you and the high priest." The little girl came forward holding a stack of clothes.
"The high priest and I don't need them." Bai Yu'an took the clothes that were suitable for Yuan Xiaonian and Li Suining, "Miss Baozhu, thank your prince for me and tell him that we will be leaving soon."
"The prince said there's no rush. You can just take a good rest before going down." Baozhu stepped back and said respectfully, "Then I'll take my leave first."
The little girl turned and left.
Bai Yu'an came back with clothes and handed them to Yuan Xiaonian and Li Suining, "You should change. It will make you more comfortable."
The temperature here is obviously much higher than that in Dajin. At this time, it feels like summer has already begun, while Dajin is just entering spring.
Yuan Xiaonian frowned and said helplessly, "My Lord Imperial Master, you too, are already here, why bother with those rules that don't even exist?"
Wenren Li and Fuxing are completely fake, so wearing black robes and hoods are just their tricks to be mysterious, so Yuan Xiaonian feels that there is no need to abide by them.
Bai Yu'an smiled and shook his head. "It's okay. We just need to endure it. After all, Zi Tong had met the Imperial Master and the High Priest when he was in the Great Jin Dynasty, and he knew about these things. It would not be good if we suddenly disobeyed them."
In fact, he was more concerned about Fuxing. If Fuxing's face was easily revealed, it might bring unnecessary trouble and danger.
"Okay, I respect you." Yuan Xiaonian picked up his clothes, went behind the screen, and quickly changed. "You know what, I feel much more comfortable and cool after changing my clothes."
Bai Yu'an looked at Xiaotuanzi and Fuxing, "Come on, sister, go too, let sister Fuxing help you."
"Okay!" Little Dumpling also went to change clothes happily. After changing, he felt extremely relaxed and his mood instantly improved a lot.
They talked for a while and then went downstairs together.
The lunch was particularly sumptuous. Zi Tong was very enthusiastic and introduced them to some of Dongchu's cuisine and how to eat and cook some dishes. The whole process was a perfect display of the hospitality of the host.
After lunch, Zi Tong said he was going back to the palace, and politely explained, "Actually, I should have arranged for you to come to the palace tonight, but...something went wrong in the palace and it's really inconvenient, so I'll have to let you go for the night."
"Prince Zi Tong is too polite. We are staying very comfortably in the Dongfeng Inn. If you have anything to do, please return to the palace and deal with it. We can just take a look around on our own." Yuan Xiaonian expressed his understanding immediately.
"Okay, do whatever you want. I'll let Baozhu stay. If you need anything, just tell her." Zi Tong left quickly.
Baozhu smiled at everyone and said, "Greetings, my lords. Where would you like to go? We have many interesting and beautiful places in Dongchu."
Yuan Xiaonian had no idea what was going on, but he was rather curious about what was happening in the palace.
He looked at Li Suining and the others, "How is it? Is there anywhere you want to go?"
"I do have one, but I'm afraid you'll find it boring," Bai Yu'an said with a smile, "I heard that Dongchu believes in Buddhism, and there is a most famous temple in the capital called Tian'en Temple."
"The Imperial Master is right. Tian'en Temple is indeed in the capital. Do you want to go?" Baozhu kept smiling.
Bai Yu'an smiled and said, "The high priest and I definitely want to go. We respect all the gods and want to offer our respects to them."
"Sister Baozhu, I want to go too." Li Suining was very smart and immediately understood what his second brother meant.
"Then this prince definitely won't spoil the fun, so let's go to Tian'en Temple." Yuan Xiaonian said readily.
"Okay!" Baozhu quickly arranged a large carriage that was spacious enough for several people to sit together. At this time, the guards and the people left behind by Zi Tong were also riding horses.
Soon, the group set off.
On the way, Baozhu told many legendary stories about Tian'en Temple, which stunned Li Suining. He kept shouting that he wanted to pay a good visit to bless his father and mother who were far away in the imperial city.
Yuan Xiaonian also smiled and said, "This prince must also pray for the Great Jin. I just don't know if the Buddha of Dongchu is willing to fulfill this prince's wish."
"Second Prince, you are joking. In the eyes of Buddha, all beings are equal. As long as Second Prince is sincere enough, Buddha will definitely hear you." This Baozhu is obviously a smart little girl.
