After His Majesty was reborn, the poor little girl in his previous life was spoiled to death

Although Chengguo Temple is hidden in the mountains, it is extremely open and spacious inside. In addition to the numerous palaces, which are majestic and magnificent, flowers and trees can be seen everywhere, and every blade of grass and stone is well maintained.

Walking slowly, you will see beautiful scenery everywhere. The exquisite copper-cast Baoding incense burner is filled with blue smoke and the sandalwood is elegant. From time to time, you can hear the sound of monks chanting, which makes people feel peaceful.

Lin Ruozhan, holding a shawl, and Ning'er circled up the stone path, and came to a small pavilion with flying wings and copper bells hanging from the eaves. When the breeze blew, the bells tinkled, and the sound was clear and melodious, which was very pleasant to hear.

Because the two families were discussing today, the temple had already been closed and cleared, and there were no strangers. Lin Ruozhen only brought two maids with him. Seeing Ning'er looking at it intently, she smiled and said, "You are so leisurely. You really come here to enjoy the scenery."

Ning Er smiled and said, "Huh? That's strange? You're not anxious right now, do you want me to be anxious?"

Lin Ruozhan took her to sit down and was about to speak, but he saw Ning'er looking at the maid standing beside her with a smile, and then shook her head slightly.

Seeing this, Lin Ruozhen smiled and said, "It's okay. Guiyun and Songluo have both served me since they were young. In terms of affection, they are no different from real sisters."

Although she said so, she still asked the two of them to retreat outside the pavilion and guard.

Ning Erfang said, "Of course, it's just that it's more comfortable to have someone watching." She smiled and looked at Lin Ruozhen's expression, "You begged me to come with you that day, and I was almost as anxious as a chicken with black eyes. Why are you so calm today?"

Before she finished speaking, Lin Ruozhen smiled, "I can't hide it from my sister." She whispered in Ning'er's ear, "I asked someone to find out that on the fourth day of next month, the Shi family will have a ship going down to Jiangdu by water. Their third daughter is my cousin's sister-in-law who has not yet married. No matter what happens here, it won't be finalized at the beginning of next month. When the time comes, I will go to my father and ask him to let me go back to Jiangdu with the girl from the Shi family. When we return to Beijing, I will wait to get married and let them arrange it."

Ning'er was shocked: "You want to go to Jiangdu? Isn't this method too risky? Do you still want to find him yourself?"

Lin Ruozhen was a little shy, but he had made up his mind: "This opportunity is so rare, I will never miss it. If it doesn't work out this time, it means that he and I are not meant to be together, and I will give up on this idea from now on; if it works out..."

Ning Er was shocked when she heard this: "What will you do if you find the person? Are you going to break off the engagement?"

Lin Ruozhen's eyes sparkled, and with a brave heart, she whispered: "If he is willing, I will convince my father to allow me to marry to Jiangdu!"

"Are you crazy?" Ning'er lowered her voice, "The Lin family is already negotiating a marriage with Prince Rui. After today, I'm afraid even the window paper will be broken. If you suddenly want to break off the engagement and marry far away in Jiangdu, how will Uncle Lin explain to Prince Rui? He won't agree at all!"

Lin Ruozhen's voice was a little stubborn: "If Daddy doesn't allow, I will... I won't go back to the capital!"

Ning Er tried to persuade her: "Uncle Lin and Auntie Lin treat you so well, how can you bear to abandon your family for an unrelated man? Kyoto is a prosperous city, and my sister grew up here. Can you really bear to leave?"

"What's more, you two have been apart for many years. That young man may have married and had children. I don't know what his current character is like or what his family background is like. How can you be so careless and entrust your life to him?"

"What should I do?" Lin Ruozhen's voice trembled, "I really don't want to marry Prince Rui like this!"

Ning'er really didn't understand why Sister Lin, who was so cheerful and carefree, got so hung up on this matter? She was only twelve years old at the time, and it was just an unexpected story when a girl first fell in love, but she still thinks about it day and night.

She couldn't control what Lin Ruozhan was thinking, so she could only rack her brains to persuade her to give up the idea, but she was as determined as if she had eaten a weight and no one could persuade her.

Ning Er could only sigh and said, "Good sister, since we are here today, we must go through the process. Otherwise, let's not waste time here. Anyway, go take a look at Chu Er and see if he is worthy of your attention. If you really don't like him, we can talk about other things later."

Lin Ruozhen remained silent after hearing this, staring at the eaves bell in a trance. After a long while, he said, "Okay, I'll listen to you."

Ning Er sighed tiredly, not knowing whether to sympathize with her or Chu Yue. Her body froze, and she suddenly realized that she must not show up later - Chu Yue knew "Young Master Ning"!

Walking back along the mountain road, both of them had their own thoughts in their minds and no one spoke for a while.

Guiyun, Lin Ruozhen's personal maid, asked, "It's still early, aren't you going to go for a walk? Madam has specifically instructed that there are no outsiders here today, so as long as you don't leave the temple, you can go out and play as you please."

Lin Ruozhen slowed down her pace and turned to ask, "Did my mother really say that?"

Songluo also smiled and said, "How can this be false? The young lady left first just now, and the lady specifically reminded her of this."

Ning Er saw that she looked thoughtful, so she asked, "Sister Lin, is there something wrong?"

Lin Ruozhen shook his head: "Nothing, I just feel that this is not what my mother would say. Normally, she gives me many warnings, just to prevent me from playing too wildly, why did she change her tone today?"

Ning Er went down a few stone steps and said with a smile, "It's not surprising. As a mother, I just feel sorry for my daughter. Let's go from the back and go around slowly."

The group then changed the road and passed through a flower garden. They could faintly hear the sound of gurgling water. They followed the path to follow the sound of water. Soon, they could see a clear spring flowing out from between the rocks and gradually forming a clear stream.

The spring flows around the steps, and the stream water flows down and is led into a lotus pond. It is still late spring, and the lotus has not yet bloomed. The pond is full of lotus leaves and duckweed, with a few pink buds scattered around. Dozens of koi fish are playing and shuttling among the lotuses, some are golden and red, and some are pink and white, lively and lovely.

Ning Er was delighted when she saw it. Just as she was about to go closer to take a closer look, she suddenly heard a man's voice not far away: "The sound of flowing springs and stone bamboos, the sound of flowers and trees. I came here in a hurry before, and I didn't realize that there is such a quiet place in the temple."

She quickly retracted her foot and exchanged a glance with Lin Ruozhan. The two girls tacitly took a few steps back and hid behind a rockery wall.

Another man laughed and teased him: "Second brother, I'm afraid that you are about to get married, and you are happy, so naturally you like everything you see."

The voices of these two men sounded very young. Ning'er was about to speak when she saw Sister Lin put her index finger on her lips, signaling her not to speak for the time being.

She then heard the man who had spoken earlier say, "Brother, don't laugh at me. This marriage was the will of our father, who made it happen. As his sons, we can only obey his orders."

Hearing this, Ning'er's eyes widened and she instantly understood who was speaking.

She quickly turned to look at Lin Ruozhen, only to see her mouthing to her, "It's the Second Young Master Chu."
