It was really a pleasant surprise. They had not received the news before that Lu Zhichen was asking Qingfengguan to produce medicine.
A young prince is actually into the elixir business.
Taoist Qingfeng originally said this because he wanted to use Lu Zhichen's name to pressure Lu Zhixing, but he didn't expect to accidentally reveal the fact that Lu Zhichen took the elixir.
Seeing Lu Zhixing slowly retract his sword, Taoist Qingfeng felt relieved and snorted in his heart. He was just a blind prince, and he still wanted to threaten him? He didn't even consider his own abilities.
"Since you're working for Fifth Brother, I won't make things difficult for you. However..." Lu Zhixing paused, pretending to be helpless. "I'm going to stay in the temple for a few days. Please make arrangements, otherwise don't blame me for making things difficult for you!"
"Don't worry, Your Highness Prince Jing. A courtyard has been prepared in the temple, waiting for you to move in." Taoist Qingfeng hurriedly saluted Lu Zhixing respectfully.
Watching Lu Zhixing leave, Taoist Qingfeng snorted coldly, "He's just a blind prince, why is he pretending to be the overlord of Kyoto?!"
A Taoist priest who followed him was a little confused. They were under the Ministry of Rites, and the Minister of Rites was Prince Yu's man and also Prince Jing's half-sister. Why did the master of the temple have such an attitude?
Seeing his confusion, Taoist Qingfeng rolled his eyes. "So what if we're born from the same mother? There's only one throne! What brothers and sisters? Those are just empty words! Hurry and clean up the raw materials for refining the elixir for His Royal Highness Prince Yu!"
"We just need to be careful, why do we still need to clean up?" Although the "raw materials" had been sent away, the tools were still there. It would take some time to clean up, and they would be used later, so the Taoist priest didn't want to clean up.
"Stupid!" Taoist Qingfeng hit him with his dustpan. "Do you know what it means to be safe than sorry? Besides, the Crown Prince's men are always after us. What if one of the Crown Prince's men has infiltrated King Jing's team? It's always better to be careful!"
"The abbot is wise!" The Taoist priest immediately gave a thumbs up, expressing his admiration.
In the wing room of Yuqing Temple.
Song Yushu was cleaning Lu Zhixing's room. Although Yuqingguan pretended to clean it, she still couldn't stand it. What's more, Lu Zhixing was a mysophobia fanatic, so she couldn't stand it even more.
"Take the things off the carriage and tidy up this room."
"Open the windows for some fresh air and light the incense we brought home."
"Return all the blankets inside to the abbot. The prince won't be able to sleep on such rough blankets."
The curious Taoist children watched the bustling courtyard from afar, amazed. He was indeed the former First Prince of the Dayan Dynasty. With such a style of travel! Even His Majesty the Emperor didn't go to such great lengths when traveling!
The courtyard was bustling until night, when it finally quieted down. However, the flames rising into the sky frightened Taoist Qingfeng, who hurried over with his men.
But he met a maid who was lighting the remaining candle.
"Stop!" Taoist Qingfeng was sweating profusely. Even if he looked down on Lu Zhixing, he didn't want him to get into trouble here. It would be hard to explain to the emperor! "What are you doing?"
The maid glanced at Taoist Qingfeng, seeming to be quite disgusted, "Master, this is our prince's habit. Now these candles are less than half of what we have in the mansion!"
Less than half!
Taoist Qingfeng was almost unable to open his eyes due to the smoke from the candles. He covered his mouth and nose with a handkerchief and said, "This temple is a place for spiritual practice. It is inappropriate for Your Majesty to behave so extravagantly..."
Wow——
A basin of dirty water was poured at Taoist Qingfeng's feet, scaring him so much that he jumped up on the spot.
"Oh, it's the abbot. I'm sorry for being rude." Song Yushu narrowed his eyes as if he had just recognized Taoist Master Yu Qingfeng.
It was absolutely intentional! Taoist Qingfeng was furious. The flames rising into the sky were so bright that even mosquitoes could see them clearly. Who was this eunuch trying to fool by pretending like this?
"Eunuch Song, I'm afraid it's not a good idea for the prince to behave like this." Taoist Qingfeng suppressed his anger and forced a smile.
Song Yushu tilted his head in confusion. "What's wrong with this? Ever since the prince developed an eye disease, he can't sleep without light at night. The Empress Dowager found out and issued an imperial decree to grant this permission. Taoist priest, you didn't know about this?"
How could he know the secrets of the imperial family? The veins on Taoist Qingfeng's neck twitched, and in the end, he could only say "Be careful with fire" and left in a huff.
Song Yushu stood at the door with a smile and watched him leave before returning to the yard.
Lu Zhixing stood at the window in his nightgown. His broad shoulders and narrow waist were highlighted by his black clothes. His slender fingers were untying the bandages on his hands. Song Yushu finally understood why some fans in his previous life would scream continuously at the mere sight of a single part of their idol.
Seeing that Lu Zhixing frowned as he untied the straps and was about to tear them open, Song Yushu hurried forward to help.
As she untied the knot, she asked, "My Lord, did you gain anything tonight?"
Lu Zhixing looked down at Song Yushu as she carefully untied the straps. He sniffed the faint herbal scent on her body, and the frenzy in his heart subsided a lot. "No."
"The Yuqing Temple is the closest to Kyoto. If there is any disturbance, they will be the first to deal with it. It's normal that there is no disturbance." Song Yushu was not surprised. After untying the straps for Lu Zhixing, she signaled Lu Zhixing to take off his coat.
Lu Zhixing obediently stretched out his hand, but when Song Yushu's hand touched his underwear, Lu Zhixing grabbed her hand.
Song Yushu looked up at Lu Zhixing in confusion.
"Ahem." Lu Zhixing's ears were a little red. "You, you let Liu Bai come in."
Did you forget you're a girl, you little liar? How can a girl take off someone's underwear?
"How could Lord Liu Bai serve you, Your Highness?" Song Yushu ignored Lu Zhixing's awkwardness. He had been acting strangely lately. She tugged hard and pulled off his underwear. "Your Highness, I've already prepared the water. Please go soak for a while."
Lu Zhixing stood there in his underpants, watching Song Yushu busying around. He felt both embarrassed and upset. When Song Yushu pushed him into the bathtub, he studied his body very carefully.
He had a muscular chest with distinct lines and strong, powerful arms. Not to mention that he was stripping like this, even the young ladies in Kyoto would blush when they saw him before he took off his clothes.
How come the little liar blushed in the carriage, but had no reaction at all when he saw himself topless? Lu Zhixing slapped the water angrily.
Song Yushu was packing his clothes when he heard the noise inside and shook his head. Lu Zhixing was becoming more and more childish. Why did he play with water while taking a bath?
Or do you want to go in and serve yourself?
"Your Highness, do you want me to go in and wipe your body?" Song Yushu put down his clothes and prepared to go in.
Lu Zhixing was so frightened that he trembled and immediately shouted, "No need! Get out!"
