Chapter 140: If it's too ugly, don't pick it, lest it scare me
Lu Mingfeng looked calm, "It's okay."
After saying this, he turned and left.
It took the guard at the gate a while to come back to his senses.
But think about it carefully.
Their Lord Temple Minister was recognized by the Princess in front of all the civil and military officials.
Their Lord Temple Minister has a prestigious title.
So what if he is a first-rank official?
No matter how old he is, he is not older than the eldest princess.
When the guard at the gate thought of this, he went out to answer, and his back was straighter than usual.
When Su Yunyao arrived at the Huguo Temple, she happened to wake up.
She looked at Master Wu Yu, a highly accomplished monk with a face that showed the signs of time.
Put your hands together in front of your chest.
Amitabha.
Su Yunyao didn't really understand the matter of burning incense and praying for blessings. After all, in the world before she traveled through time, the only place she could climb the fastest when burning incense and praying to Buddha was the Temple of the God of Wealth.
After coming through, this is my first time in a temple.
In short, she followed the emperor and did whatever he did, which was always the right thing.
Had a vegetarian meal.
The emperor and Master Wu Yu talked about Buddhist scriptures, which she could not understand a word.
She wandered around the temple out of boredom, and finally returned to the meditation room and looked at the sketchbook that Zhenzhu brought for her.
Su Yunyao silently gave her a thumbs up in her heart and decided to go back and give Zhenzhu a chicken leg.
I finally made it to dinner.
She was so cold that she was shivering all over and curled up in bed.
The emperor said that when coming to the temple to burn incense, one must abstain from alcohol, sex, and meat. After dinner, he took Huo Xiao away without any discussion.
She also issued an imperial decree, forbidding Huo Xiao to go to her room tonight.
"Princess, are you cold? I'll go get another brazier." Pearl said with a worried look on her face.
Su Yunyao glanced at the two braziers on the ground.
Her coldness probably had little to do with the brazier. Firstly, the temperature difference between morning and evening on the mountain was too great, and the mountain was very humid.
At night, a damp quilt will make you feel extra cold.
The sealing of the Zen room is not very good, and no matter how much charcoal is burned, there is no way to retain the heat.
There are no curtains on the bed in the Zen room.
So it's bound to be cold tonight.
She even had some doubts, isn't the incense at Huguo Temple good?
Why isn’t the meditation room better sealed?
Or was it that Master Wu Yu deliberately arranged this so that the emperor would think that he was a true ascetic?
At this moment, a dark shadow flashed outside the window.
Su Yunyao thought that Huo Xiao wanted to climb into bed without anyone noticing in the middle of the night, and her eyes lit up.
"Pearl, Agate, it's getting late. You should go to bed early."
"Princess, I will be on guard today." Pearl said with some concern.
"No need. The Zen room is too cold. If you stay here all night, I'm afraid you'll be sick when you wake up tomorrow morning. Besides, we came here with the emperor's brother. The imperial guards are guarding here. Whoever dares to attack at this time will be fine. Go back and rest early."
Pearl struggled for a moment, then nodded. "Princess, I'm in the meditation room next door. If you need anything, just call me loudly. I'm sure I can hear you."
Su Yunyao waved her hand.
There was the sound of a door closing, and then another one opening.
The dark shadow that had been guarding outside the window suddenly climbed in.
In just a breath, Sang Yi appeared in front of her.
Su Yunyao stared at the thin figure of the black shadow, frowning, "Who are you?"
Sang Yi was stunned and turned around in confusion, "You don't know who I am?"
"You're wearing a mask, how am I supposed to know who you are?"
After a pause, she continued to ask, "Are you someone that this princess must meet?"
Sang Yi: ...
Su Yunyao's eyes were calm. She held the heater in her hands, put it to her lips and blew on it.
Sang Yi was stunned for a moment. "You don't know who I am? Then why did you send your attendants away after seeing me?"
Su Yunyao was speechless. She looked up at him and said, "Why don't you take off your mask and let me see if I recognize you. But first, I have to tell you that if you look too ugly, don't take it off, or you'll scare me!"
Sang Yi: ...
Under the mask, his brows were deeply furrowed and his lips were tightly pursed.
After a while, he finally said, "You really don't know who I am. Are you not afraid at all?"
Su Yunyao pulled back the quilt and lay down. "If you have something to say, tell me quickly. If not, I'm going to sleep. I'm freezing to death."
Sang Yi: ...
Unable to bear it any longer, he took off his hood and walked to the bedside, "Changle!"
Su Yunyao raised her eyebrows. "You actually know my title. It seems..."
The moment he turned around, an incomparable and exquisite face broke into her time.
Even though she was lying there, she could only look at him from this death perspective.
Su Yunyao was still shocked by this stunning face.
She slowly sat up straight and looked him up and down.
The corners of Sang Yi's lips curled up slightly, captivatingly, "Do you remember?"
Su Yunyao scrutinized him, and finally stopped at the small black mole on the tip of his nose. She said firmly and seriously, "No."
Sang Yi: ...
"Are you serious?"
"Do you need to be serious if you don't know me?" Su Yunyao laughed. "If you have something to say, please tell me now. If not, get lost. I'm going to sleep."
Sang Yi was almost laughing because of her. He curled the corners of his lips helplessly, took out a bottle of medicine from his arms and placed it in front of her.
"Do you remember this medicine bottle?" Sang Yi asked.
Su Yunyao suddenly remembered that this man was not the eldest prince of Xijing, Sang Yi, who was being hunted down by someone, whom she met at Ximen Pass?
"Why are you here?" Su Yunyao was puzzled.
Sang Yi sneered helplessly, "Changle, how could you not recognize the medicine bottle, nor me? Was our engagement five years ago all fake? Or did you not even look closely at my portrait back then?"
engagement?
The original owner was engaged to the eldest prince of Xijing?
What the hell?
She tried hard to dig out this passage from the original owner's fragmented memories.
That seems to be the case.
It’s just that the original owner was obsessed with Shen Qiu Nian and didn’t take this matter to heart.
So I didn't have a deep impression of it, and by the time it was inherited by her, it was almost gone.
"I really didn't realize you were so capable. Now that Xijing has been destroyed, my royal brother ordered the arrest of you and the third prince of Xijing, but I didn't expect that you were actually in Shengjing City." Su Yunyao chuckled.
"I'm lucky enough not to die at the hands of Sang Ye. How do you know that the thing he used to destroy your Great Xia army of 100,000 was gunpowder?" Sang Yi was puzzled.
"I don't know!" Su Yunyao said calmly, "What kind of gunpowder is that? Can you eat it?"
"Changle, you don't have to hide it from me. If Huo Xiao had known about the gunpowder, this war would have started long ago. He wouldn't have waited until now, and he wouldn't have risked his life..."
