Rebirth as Princess Jin again

Early the next morning, Situ Jin and the others left Qingshui Town on horseback and headed towards Qingshan Temple.

Rui'er had never ridden a horse before. Situ Jin put him in front of him. His eyes were shining brightly and he was dancing happily.

But when the horse really started to run, he lay timidly in Situ Jin's arms, but soon he felt the joy of riding and was not that scared.

The group of people hurriedly arrived at the foot of Qingshan Temple in less than half a day.

Hearing that she would see her uncle soon, Ruier walked up the long stairs with her short legs excitedly.

In the Qingshan Temple in summer, the green mountains cover the green hills, and the dense leaves block the scorching sunshine. The breeze blows, and the slightest coolness comes oncoming, which makes people's hot heart instantly calm for no reason.

Muying stepped forward and knocked on the door of the temple. A young Taoist priest wearing Taoist robes opened the door. Muying said to him: "Please inform him that the Crown Prince and Crown Princess want to see you."

When the porter heard that the prince was coming, he quickly opened the temple door and invited them in.

When Su Ying and the others entered, Su Yao was practicing martial arts in the backyard.

"Uncle!" Rui'er's childish voice sounded in the backyard. Su Yao turned around and saw Su Ying and the others were coming, with surprise in her eyes.

"Sister, brother-in-law, Rui'er!"

Rui'er opened his hands for Su Yao to hug him, and Su Yao picked him up and raised him above his head, making Rui'er giggle.

Su Yao turned to look at Su Ying, smiled at her and said, "Sister, you finally remembered to come see me!"

When Su Ying saw Su Yao, her mood instantly improved. She wiped the sweat from his forehead and said with a smile, "Sister, I have been thinking about you. I will come to see you when I have some free time today!"

Su Yao put Rui'er down, cupped his hands towards Situ Jin and said, "I heard that my brother-in-law was named the prince. I haven't congratulated my brother-in-law yet, so I am here to congratulate my brother-in-law!"

Situ Jin said in a gentle tone: "Well, how is your Kung Fu learning now?"

Su Yao smiled slyly and said, "Why don't you try it yourself, brother-in-law?"

As he spoke, he made a fist, bypassed Su Ying, and headed towards Situ Jin. His technique was clean and neat, without any sloppiness.

Seeing his sneak attack, Situ Jin struck out unceremoniously and fiercely. Su Yao didn't hesitate at all because of his identity. The two fought dozens of moves. Situ Jin saw Su Yao's weakness and killed Su Yao with one move. He was beaten to the point of defeat.

Seeing that he was defeated, Su Yao quickly begged for mercy: "Brother-in-law, please be gentle."

Situ Jin grasped his hands tightly, raised his left hand and flicked him in the head: "You brat, now I'm starting to sneak up on your brother-in-law."

Su Yao covered her forehead and cried out in pain: "Brother-in-law, please save some face for me in front of so many people!"

Rui'er clapped her hands and applauded: "Uncle is so awesome, father is even more awesome!"

Su Yao knelt down and held Rui'er in his arms, pinched his cheek and said, "You little devil, you know how powerful you are. Come on, uncle will take you to play."

Su Ying went to the Zen room, where Master Qingshan was copying something.

Seeing Su Ying coming over, he stood up and bowed to her: "Crown Princess!"

Su Ying had a smile on her eyebrows: "Taoist Master Qingshan, I came to see Yao'er today, and I'm going to bother the Taoist Master again!"

Qingshan asked her to sit down and said with a smile: "I'm counting the days. The Crown Princess has been back in Beijing for a while, so it's time to come to this temple."

As he spoke, he poured a cup of tea himself and handed it to Su Ying.

"I thought the person who came to see me today would be His Highness, but I didn't expect that it would be the Crown Princess."

Su Ying looked at him in surprise: "The Taoist Master can actually predict that we will come, but why do we come?"

Taoist Master Qingshan said: "I am no longer a human being, and I am far away from the world. Naturally, I don't know the purpose of the princess's visit. I just heard Su Yao talk about a letter from home that day, saying that you two have entered the capital, and the emperor has made the prince a prince. The Crown Princess has a deep love for sister and brother Su Yao, so she will naturally take the time to visit this temple."

Su Ying looked at him and said with a smile: "Are you here today to ask the Taoist Master to help me clarify my doubts?"

Qingshan looked at her benevolently and said: "I am still a simple person, so I am afraid that I will not be able to answer the questions of the Crown Princess."

Su Ying knew that he was driving her away, but she sat in front of him, looked at him with deep eyes, and asked directly: "After so many years, the prince has avenged the good concubine, does Taoist Qingshan still have it in his heart?" Have any resentment?"

Upon hearing her words, Qingshan's hand holding the teacup suddenly tightened, and the water in the teacup trembled and fell onto the table in front of him.

"The past is over, and the poor Taoist has long been pure and devoid of desires. How can he express any resentment?"

Su Ying's eyes caught traces sliding over his fingers and asked: "I heard that the Taoist priest and the Concubine Xian were deeply in love back then. If the emperor hadn't brought the empress into the palace, the Concubine Xian and the Taoist priest would have been the same. A wonderful couple."

Hearing this, Qingshan slowly raised his head and looked at her. His eyes were as calm as ever, but inexplicably, a chill rose in Su Ying's heart.

His tone was slightly cold: "Princess, be careful, your old friend has passed away, don't insult your honor!"

Su Ying couldn't tell what he was thinking, so she could only say: "I just want to tell the Taoist Master that my mother and concubine have a spirit in heaven, and I definitely hope that the Taoist Master can give up his obsession and move forward fearlessly. If the Taoist leader really decides to stay away from the world of mortals, then he should stabilize his Taoist heart. If the Taoist priest still can't forget his past life, why not return to secular life, marry a wife, have children, and live his own life like a normal person."

Qingshan looked at him, a trace of pain appeared on his slightly weathered face, and his clear eyes seemed to be covered with a layer of mist, making it difficult to see the expression in his eyes.

In just a moment, his thin shoulders sank, as if they were burdened with an invisible weight.

"Princess, if someone takes the prince away from you, are you willing to let it go? You can only watch the prince being imprisoned in a small place by that person, feeling depressed and frustrated. And that person got him, but he didn't cherish it."

"You treat His Highness like a treasure, and you could have stayed together in two places. But just because that person is more powerful than you, you can only watch him suffer torture and die in humiliation, but you can't do anything. I had to leave angrily.”

"So what if I repay her innocence now? She is dead and will never come back, but I don't even have the courage to follow her. I'm not afraid of death, but I'm afraid of seeing her down there. How to face her."

"Her revenge was not mine. I couldn't help her when she was helpless. When she was dying, I could only be a coward and run away from her. I had no face to face her."

"To me, she is the only person I have truly loved in this world, but now I feel that I am not worthy of her love. She once begged me to take her away, but I was afraid of power and still watched her. I sat on the sedan chair with tears in my eyes."

"If she can be happy throughout her life, I would be willing to make it happen, but as for him, he doesn't cherish it after he gets it. Why can he still sit in that high position and be so complacent now? He doesn't deserve it?"

Su Ying looked at the person in front of her. There was a sad and unspeakable smile on his lips, but his eyes had already become misty.

"Perhaps I have committed too many crimes in my life, so God will punish me to never be able to love the one I love."
