Chapter 74 Qinglu Temple
"This way." Qi Shuo calmly led Lin Hao to the flower stand. "Miss Lin, is there something you want to talk to me about?"
Lin Hao looked at the calm face of Prince Jing and felt a little hesitant.
I always feel that Prince Jing is not easy to fool.
Seeing that she didn't say anything, Qi Shuo didn't urge her, with a gentle smile on his lips.
For a moment there was no sound of human voices, only the chirping of birds and the humming of insects.
"That's right..." Lin Hao was unsure, but his expression remained calm. "I heard from the princess that the prince has been coming to the palace frequently recently."
Qi Shuo looked at her deeply and nodded: "Yeah."
"Is there anyone with the surname Fang around him?"
"I never noticed such a person." Qi Shuo's eyes darkened slightly, making it hard to see his true intentions. "Does Miss Lin Er know that person?"
Lin Hao shook his head: "I don't know him, but I suddenly had a dream——"
Qi Shuo put on a listening attitude.
"I dreamed that this man surnamed Fang turned into a huge tiger and opened his mouth to eat up Prince Jing's Mansion." Seeing that Qi Shuo didn't show any amusement, Lin Hao made up a more natural story. "The more I think about it, the more strange this dream seems, so I want to warn the prince."
Qi Shuo had a smile in his eyes: "Thank you, Miss Lin Er, for reminding me."
He thanked me so easily, without even a question, which made Lin Hao feel unreal.
"It's just a dream... Prince, just pay attention to this person."
Don’t you think what she said is ridiculous and funny?
Qi Shuo said seriously: "There is no dream without reason. I will pay special attention to this person."
Lin Hao was silent.
If someone like Prince Jing went to a fortune teller's stall, his family fortune would be taken away by the fortune teller, right?
Qi Shuo chuckled: "Miss Lin Er, do you have any other dreams to tell me?"
Lin Hao's mouth twitched slightly: "I thought... the prince wouldn't believe this."
She also prepared many arguments to persuade him, and was even prepared for him to think she was sick.
Was it a bit too smooth?
Qi Shuo's tone was slightly surprised: "How could that be? I think what Miss Lin Er said is credible."
Lin Hao's mind was a little subtle at this moment.
There were footsteps coming in the distance.
"Miss Lin, take care. I won't see you off." Qi Shuo paused and smiled, "If you dream about me again in the future, please remind me."
"Oh——" Lin Hao wanted to emphasize that it was a dream about Prince Jing's Mansion. The young man had already walked out of the flower stand and went in the direction where the servant was running.
Back in the garden of the general's mansion, Lin Hao sat on the bench and was lost in thought for a while.
Prince Jing must have believed it, so he should remind Prince Jing to pay attention to Fang Chengji. If he can detect Fang Chengji's actions that are detrimental to Prince Jing's Mansion, perhaps he can avoid the fate of the whole family being in trouble.
But - how could Prince Jing believe other people's dreams so easily!
Thinking about this, Lin Hao didn't know how to evaluate Qi Shuo.
You could say he's a bit silly. It's not appropriate for someone to trust him so much.
Well, Prince Jing is an honest man.
"Oh, why are you sitting here?"
Lin Hao came back to his senses and looked at the girl approaching.
"Big sister."
Lin Chan came over and sat down beside her, reaching out to pinch her slightly red cheeks: "You've been sitting here for so long that your face is getting a little red. Even though it's autumn, you can't stay out all day at noon."
"Really?" Lin Hao touched his cheek and asked with a smile, "Are you here to see me, Big Sister?"
"Mom said she would take us to Qinglu Temple to burn incense in two days. Have you packed your things?"
Qinglu Temple is located in the suburbs of Beijing. Although it is not as convenient as the large and small temples in Beijing, it is very popular. It is said that it is very effective in praying for wealth, career, marriage, and offspring.
"Oh, yes, we have to go to Qinglu Temple." Lin Hao remembered.
Lin Chan shook her head helplessly: "When mother said this, I noticed that you were absent-minded. You really didn't listen."
Lin Hao smiled shyly.
I have been thinking about a lot of things lately, and have neglected some daily things.
"Why do you suddenly want to go to Qinglu Temple, mother?"
Lin Chan blushed slightly: "It's good to go out for a walk before it gets cold, so that Mom won't be bored at home all day."
Looking at the eldest sister's reaction, Lin laughed: "I see, should I go and ask for a marriage for my eldest sister?"
Lin Chan raised her hand and hit her: "Don't make fun of me, you are not a child anymore, let's beg together."
Afraid her sister would tease her again, Lin Chan pulled Lin Hao up and said, "Hurry up and pack your things. Mother said she'll be staying at Qinglu Temple for two days. It's not as convenient away from home as it is at home, so you need to pack everything you need."
Lin Hao returned to Luoyingju and asked Baozhu to make a lot of cakes for him to take away.
Two days later, Lin took her two daughters out of the city.
Once out of the city, the mountains and wilderness are surrounded, and the autumn atmosphere becomes even stronger.
Lin Hao lifted the car curtain and looked at the scenery outside the car.
"Is there anything so interesting outside that you're staring at it so intently?" Lin Chan, who was riding in the same car with her, came over.
"Sister, look at the golden fields and the maple leaves dyed red by frost. They are so beautiful." Lin Hao was obviously in a good mood and pointed out the car window with a smile.
She has walked this road before.
It was the twelfth lunar month when she fled the capital. The road ahead offered no enchanting golden or red scenery, only barren hills and withered grass, a bleak scene. This was just like her despair and helplessness, with no way forward.
Now she can go to burn incense leisurely with her mother and sister, and only she understands the joy in her heart.
Lin Chan looked outside with a smile.
The chaotic sound of horse hooves soon came from afar, and several young men rode their horses towards them.
The horses galloped past the carriage, stirring up a gust of wind and dust.
Lin Chan lowered the car curtain, her expression somewhat subtle: "Second sister, did you see who those people who just rode past were?"
Lin Hao had good eyesight. Although those people had just passed by quickly, he saw two familiar faces.
"I think I saw Wen Feng."
Another familiar face is the top scholar Yang Zhe.
Lin Chan sighed with emotion: "I didn't expect this cousin to become the most promising one in the Wen family."
Lin Hao smiled.
Wen Feng is a good person, but after what happened, it is impossible for us to get close.
Lin Chan was obviously aware of this and quickly changed the subject: "At this time, there should be a lot of people going to Qinglu Temple..."
Lin Hao took out a piece of osmanthus cake and handed it over.
The carriage traveled non-stop for more than an hour before finally arriving at Qinglu Temple.
Qinglu Temple is located halfway up the mountain and requires walking up. Fortunately, the mountain is not very high. After walking a little and sweating a little, I arrived at the entrance of the mountain temple.
The monk in charge of reception led the mother, daughter and her two children to a place in the temple specially set up for pilgrims, and soon a young novice monk brought vegetarian food.
The little novice monk was seven or eight years old, with a chubby face and very cute.
Lin Hao stuffed a bag of osmanthus cake into his hand, and the little monk was so happy that he thanked him repeatedly, showing a smile with missing front teeth.
"Donor, you can go to the west. The maple forest there is very beautiful."
"Thank you, young master, for the reminder." Lin said with a smile.
The little monk felt a little embarrassed, so he hid the osmanthus cake in his arms and walked away quickly.
After having a vegetarian meal and taking a short rest, Lin took the two sisters to burn incense, and unexpectedly met someone she knew.
