Therefore, the matter of taking a concubine in the Prince He's mansion came to an end, but Hongzhou still couldn't find any clues in the mysterious letters, and the relationship between Gengshi and Wukuzhashi became even colder.
Meanwhile, compared to the oppressive atmosphere in the Prince He's mansion, the Fourth Prince and Lanqin seemed much more cheerful and free. Having long since lost their sense of being in a state of mind, the Fourth Prince and Lanqin finally arrived at the foot of Huangshan Mountain in Huizhou after nearly a month's journey.
Lanqin looked at the ancient Huangshan Mountain, which was not much different from what she had seen in later generations. However, the guesthouses here all had white walls and black tiles, just like the ancient Huizhou that she had seen in a traditional Chinese ink painting.
However, seeing such scenery with her own eyes now was a completely different experience. The scene from the ink painting was now right in front of her, and there was her beloved person beside her, appreciating the scenery together. Watching the person in front of her slowly walk between the walls, Lanqin instantly felt very calm and at peace.
Suddenly remembering Huizhou's specialties, Lanqin became excited. In the 21st century, she had only seen Huizhou's style online, but now it was right in front of her, and she could also taste the original local specialties. So Lanqin pulled Fourth Master and said happily, "Your Majesty, let's take a stroll around this village and eat some local specialties, such as hairy tofu and bamboo shoot meat, how about it?"
Upon hearing Lanqin's words, Fourth Master curiously pulled Lanqin aside and asked, "Have you been here in the future? You seem so familiar with this place?"
Lanqin smiled mysteriously, "Your Majesty may not know this, but in later generations, Huangshan has become a tourist hotspot. Once you go online, all the local specialties and scenic spots are right in front of you."
"The world that even ordinary people crave is so easily attainable in the hands of those who come after," the Fourth Master sighed. "Life in those later generations is simply unimaginable."
Upon hearing Fourth Master's words, Lanqin covered her mouth and laughed, "That's right. In later generations, it was truly possible to know about current events without leaving home. It's just that the internet, being so convenient, has lost a bit of its mystique."
"We always see thousands of mountains and rivers on the screen and appreciate the cycle of the four seasons, but we can't see these amazing mountains and rivers with our own eyes. It's too fast-food and fragmented."
Upon hearing this, the Fourth Prince smiled, took Lanqin's hand, and said, "Don't worry, today, I will accompany you to experience the ancient Huizhou, how about that?"
Upon hearing what Fourth Master said, Lanqin smiled and went with him to find those specialties of Huizhou. The environment in ancient times was much better than in modern times, so even simple dishes like hairy tofu and bamboo shoot meat were made so delicious by ordinary people.
Around 5 PM, Lanqin and Fourth Master were getting tired from walking around the town in Huizhou, so they found an inn and stayed there with their maids and guards.
After the two entered the room, the maid helped Lanqin and the Fourth Prince pack their clothes. Lanqin then dismissed them and turned to the Fourth Prince beside her, asking excitedly, "What does Your Majesty think of Jiangnan?"
"In the water towns of Jiangnan, there are bridges and flowing water," Fourth Master said slowly.
Then the Fourth Prince remembered how Lanqin had addressed him earlier, so he reminded Lanqin, "Be careful not to call him Your Majesty when you're out. Just call him Husband."
Upon hearing the Fourth Prince's words, Lanqin blinked and said slyly, "Yes, Your Majesty, I understand."
