I went to the temple after traveling through time, and he turned out to be a monk!

The carriage bumped all morning before it reached the western suburbs of Chenjing and entered a mountain. Because the mountain road was rugged, the carriage had to be left at a villager's house outside the mountain. The three of them chose to hike into the mountains.

The mountain road was difficult to walk, but Xiao Yang walked quickly, while Bai Zhi and Lihua could only rest and walk.

During the break, a woodcutter came down from the mountain carrying a large bundle of dry firewood. Seeing that the two girls had thin skin and tender flesh, like city dwellers, the woodcutter asked curiously: "Where are the guests coming from?"

Bai Zhi pulled a taro leaf and fanned it, "He's from Chenjing."

The woodcutter was tired from walking and sat down to rest. "Oh, he is indeed from the city! You beautiful girls, be careful. There have been bandits in the mountains recently, and two little ones have disappeared in our village." Girl!"

Xiao Yang held his hands on the side, chuckled lightly after hearing this, and then continued to drink water from the water bag.

Bai Zhi started chatting, "Have you reported to the official?"

"I did report it. But those bandits were very cunning. As soon as the officers and soldiers arrived, they ran away, leaving an empty nest behind. I caught them several times, but only a few of them were caught!" said the woodcutter! He spoke in an ups and downs, which can be said to be elated.

"Then what did they rob? Did they rob crops? Did they rob property?"

"We will not rob poor people of their property, but they will rob beautiful men and women."

"Men are also robbed?" Bai Zhi was surprised. She had heard of people snatching her away to be his wife, but never her husband.

"Grab it! Why don't you rob it? It's the Ergou from the next village. He's handsome. Some high-ranking officials came to our countryside just to take a look at the Ergou."

The woodcutter said it wonderfully, and he didn't feel ashamed at all. It seems that in this era, masculinity is prevalent.

After chatting for a while, they continued on their way. After finally arriving at the hut built by Gu Mobai, the three of them were rejected.

I saw that the door next to the door god was locked with a heavy iron lock. There was a slightly soaked piece of paper taped under the door god. It said, "Go out to collect medicine and return at the end of the month."

Xiao Yang only felt very embarrassed. He took the princess on a trip in vain, and his old face was completely lost.

Bai Zhi was not annoyed, and enjoyed the lush shade of the forest. After resting for a while, she said happily: "Let's go back."

Xiao Yang asked hesitantly, "You... aren't angry?"

"Why should I be angry?"

"You ran away in vain?" Xiao Yang said awkwardly.

"What's there to be angry about? Why don't you get so angry about everything? They said I'd come back at the end of the month, so I'll come back at the end of the month."

Lihua clasped her hands and counted, "Aren't these the last few days at the end of the month?"

Bai Zhi replied: "Yes, today is March 27th, so I'll come in two days. I should be able to meet the miracle doctor when he comes back."

After saying that, she turned to Xiao Yang and asked, "The prince said that you have something to do if you go to the miracle doctor. What's wrong with you?"

The three of them chatted while going down the mountain.

Xiao Yang hesitated and said: "It's nothing, just asking the miracle doctor to help regulate the body."

"Have you been here before?" Bai Zhi continued to ask.

"He comes every year. Usually around the prince's birthday, he will definitely be there."

Bai Zhi felt that something was wrong with Xiao Yang. His tone was not as irritating as before, but more decadent. He tilted his head and met Xiao Yang's lackluster eyes, "Are you in poor health? Is it a chronic illness?"

Xiao Yang seemed to have been exposed. He panicked for a moment, murmured, and then hurriedly covered it up: "What are you talking about? What kind of illness can I have? I'm in good health!"

At first glance, he was lying. Bai Zhi saw that he didn't want to say anything, maybe it was something private, so she didn't continue to ask.

It was almost sunset before we went down the mountain, got on the carriage, and returned to Chenjing.

When they arrived in the city, the surroundings were brightly lit and bustling. Bai Zhi and Lihua were so hungry that they insisted on pestering Xiao Yang to go to a restaurant for a meal.

So Xiao Yang had no choice but to take them to Deyuelou.

This Deyuelou has some background, it can be said to be the most proud restaurant of Chenjing people. This restaurant has a famous dish called braised bear's paw. The bear paws are marinated with a secret marinade for twelve hours. The whole process is done slowly over low heat, allowing the aroma of the marinade to subtly penetrate into the bear paws. After one day, take it out, add soup, and serve.

It is said that the bear's paw, which has been stewed for twelve hours, is tangible but not scattered. It tastes like soup and goes into the stomach after just sucking it. However, due to the complicated process, only a few copies can be produced every day, so reservations are required.

Of course they can't eat Angelica dahurica. If they do business in the future, then Deyuelou will be a competitor and Bai Zhi still feels a little regretful that she won't be able to taste its signature dishes. Had to order some other dishes.

The three of them did not choose a private room, but sat directly in the lobby. After the food was served, Bai Zhi looked at the amount of food on the table, which was only as big as a fist. She was really shocked, and raised an eyebrow very high, "That's it? Fifty taels of silver. It's equivalent to my monthly salary." Got it!"

Lihua didn't dare to put down her chopsticks. Xiao Yang said matter-of-factly, "This is the price in Yuelou. Just get used to it."

Bai Zhi wanted to say that she was treating the guests, but now she could only pretend to be fat. Her face really hurt, and she pursed her lips and said, "I also want to pack some for the prince to take home. This is not enough to eat at all."

Xiao Yang could really eat it, "Don't worry about him, Yue Lou is tired of it!"

Xiao Yang's words aroused Bai Zhi's interest and asked, "Oh? Did he come here often before?"

"How is it possible? Someone rushed to send it to him!"

"Who!" Bai Zhi became more energetic.

"Miss Shen family, Shen Qingli."

Shen Qingli, Qingli, Bai Zhi silently recited this name several times, as if she had heard it somewhere.

Lihua took a chicken foot in her mouth, and when she saw Bai Zhi looking puzzled, she reminded her, "My dear, have you forgotten? It's Princess Xuan!"

"Oh!" Bai Zhi suddenly realized, and then slammed the table, "You mean she is against the prince...!??"

Only then did Xiao Yang realize the seriousness of the matter and hurriedly explained: "Well, that happened in the past. It disappeared after marrying King Xuan."

Bai Zhi felt at this moment, as if the idol she was chasing had collapsed. She felt mixed emotions and felt uncomfortable. But it seemed like I had eaten something, and I really wanted to continue exploring.

She grabbed Xiao Yang's arm and asked quietly: "Is it... what I think? Princess Xuan once loved the prince?"

Xiao Yang also gnawed on the chicken feet. Seeing her serious look on her face, he thought that the whole capital knew about it and it was no big deal, so he nodded blankly.

"Then what's the prince's attitude?" Bai Zhi was a little nervous.

"You know the prince, what kind of attitude can he have? He eats fasting and chants Buddha's name all day long, he doesn't care about such nonsense at all!" Xiao Yang said casually.

Bai Zhi breathed a sigh of relief, and suddenly remembered what Princess Xuan said to her in the bamboo forest that day. She said, "Sister, do you know that you are really lucky to marry Sa Lan. I really envy you. !”

Bai Zhi even remembered the expression on her face when she said this. She couldn't read or understand it at the time, but now she understood that the face was full of loneliness and regret.

My heart was sour, and I didn't realize that I had sighed several times.

Xiao Yang and Lihua looked at each other, then looked at the absent-minded Bai Zhi, both of them became worried.

Xiao Yang sighed inwardly, how should he tell her that there was more than one woman like Shen Qingli!
