Daoist Abandoned Wisdom

In the ancestral temple, Qu Su came hurriedly with a veil covered, and the black-robed national teacher was sitting in front of the statue, as if time stood still.

"National teacher, national teacher?"

Qu Su called a few times before the national teacher stood up slowly, as if he had just heard it.He asked: "Why did the princess come here in such a hurry to find my minister for something?"

Qu Su said angrily: "National teacher, take out the mother gu on me, I don't want to marry that Yuan general."

"Oh, why?" The national teacher's voice was faint, without any emotion.

"I..." She thought of Tao Xinian's words, and she really didn't want to get entangled with the two of them any longer. Even if trapped by love gu, as long as that person is by his side, it is useless. He will avoid me, and he will leave soon."

She thought that the national teacher would comfort her again and let her try again.But the national teacher just said indifferently: "I understand, princess, don't worry, this Gu will not hurt the princess's body if you don't take it out. If you want to take it out, I will send the medicine to you in three days."

"In this case, Su'er has thanked the national teacher." Qu Su thanked the national teacher and left the ancestral temple quickly.

Seeing Qu Su coming out of the ancestral temple, Xiang'er was not very happy, and asked worriedly, "Princess, do you want Xiang'er to accompany you to the back garden?"

Qu Su said coldly: "No need, it's the coldest when the snow melts, I'd better go back to my room and rest."

She took two steps forward, but saw Qu Jia walking slowly towards this place.He smiled and said, "Su'er, why are you not very happy today?"

Seeing Qu Jia, Qu Su forced a smile and said, "Su'er has seen Brother Wang."

Qu Jia waved his hand, motioned Xiang'er to go further, led Qu Su to the side hall of the ancestral temple, and said, "Su'er, don't be upset about General Yuan, he's not lucky if he doesn't marry you, my Su'er is Gaochang Wangcheng Is there anyone who doesn't like the most beautiful woman in the world? I have expressed my expectation of getting married with Dawei in the document, and I believe that after reading it, Master Wei will definitely choose a better match for you than him."

"Then Su'er is going to Great Wei!" Qu Su exclaimed in shock.

Qu Jia smiled and said, "Don't worry, I hope you can stay in Gaochang. I also said in the letter that they will consider it."

Qu Su blinked her star-like eyes, and finally calmed down a lot, and said, "Brother Wang, you are the best for Su'er."

Qu Jia touched the top of Qu Su's head and said, "It's only natural, who taught us that we are brothers and sisters."

Heipao Guoshi came out from the ancestral temple, and happened to meet Qu Su and Qu Jia who were walking back, he saluted and said hello, and then said: "My king, I have something to do, I want to take a leave of absence for a while."

"The national teacher is going out again?" Qu Jia said, "It's okay, Gaochang is peaceful now, if the national teacher wants to ask for leave, he can ask for leave. There was a sacrifice a year ago, the national teacher remember to come back and preside over it."

"Thank you my king."

After the snow stopped, Tao Xinian, Yuan Yao and the others left the palace and went shopping on the street to buy things for the road.Abo was finally happy again, he chose his favorite among various snacks, and brought two sugar figurines along with him.

"Abo, outside the palace, the food outside is not as delicious as in the palace." Tao Xinian said.

"What does that matter? It's good to leave the palace. I'm free again after leaving the palace. I'm bored in the palace all day long."

Now it is almost the end of the new year, if they travel smoothly, they will be celebrating the new year when they arrive in Muni City.Find the medicine sage there to relieve Yuan Yao's love gu, and after staying for a while, he can return to Dunhuang from Muni City, and then return along the original road, and he can completely avoid the lost city on the way.

Che Anxing still followed them. Although Tuyuhun was mostly from the Xianbei tribe, and Yuan Yao, who was a Xianbei native, could talk to them in Xianbei, but Che Anxing still needed guidance on the way back from Muni City to Dunhuang.

The moment before leaving, Tao Xinian saw that the little beggar wearing his cloak was eating noodles on the street, with new shoes on his feet.He smiled slightly. It seemed that the child could survive this winter.

"Daozhang, what are you looking at?" Abo asked.He followed Tao Xinian's line of sight and saw a dirty little beggar.He recognized the big cloak the child was wearing, it belonged to Tao Xinian.It seems that he went out to do good deeds again when he didn't know it.

"It's nothing, it's time to hit the road."

Su also yelled "drive", and after driving for a while, he got back into the car, sat opposite Tao Xinian, and handed over the task of the driver to Yuan Yao, holding the stove and not letting go.

Abo glanced at him contemptuously, and said: "You are still a helper hired with a lot of money, you are the most useless one. You can't cook, and you are so afraid of the cold, you will only waste food!"

Su Huan said dumbly: "So what? If you are not convinced, you bite me."

The wheels slowly crushed yesterday's snow and drove to the distance.Tao Xinian leaned against the window, thinking of the plum blossoms on Qinglong Mountain, and took a small sip of the fruit wine brought from the Gaochang Palace to warm up.Don't drink too much alcohol, you will get drunk if you drink too much.

There were only two light snowfalls along the way, and the weather was not bad. Although it was a bit cold, they prepared enough charcoal and blankets to keep out the cold.After more than ten days, they finally crossed the border smoothly and arrived at Muni City.

Muni City was originally the royal capital of Shanshan Kingdom, but now Shanshan bowed its head to Tuyuhun and merged into Tuyuhun's territory.

The architecture of Muni City is very similar to that of Gaochang, but the population is not as large as Gaochang, the city is not as prosperous as Gaochang, and there are fewer monks and temples.

It took only thirteen days on the road, and we arrived at the destination two days ahead of schedule.Everyone was very happy. As soon as they entered the city, they found a restaurant and had a big meal.There was no snow on the day they entered the city, and it was still early after dinner, so they inquired about the location of the medicine sage's medicine house, found a small yard at the end of the main street and rented it, and considered they had a home.

Abo tidied up the house diligently, Yuan Yao added fire to the kang, and Tao Xi was lying on the bed for half a year and didn't want to move.Although this house is by no means comparable to the Gaochang Palace, they rented it by themselves, so they can live in peace of mind, and don't have to think about the princess coming to snatch him again someday.

"Daoist, it's almost ready. Do you want to boil water for a bath? I'll do it."

Tao Xinian gave a "hmm" and said, "Go quickly." After saying that, he fell asleep on the kang with his head tilted.

Yuan Yao walked in and covered him with a thin quilt.Although it was warmer with a fire underneath, I was afraid of catching cold without a quilt on my body.

In Tao Xinian's sleep, her peach blossom eyes were closed, she was quiet, the corners of her mouth were slightly raised, childish like a child.Yuan Yao caressed his brow, but couldn't bear to disturb his sleep, so he tucked the quilt up for him, and walked out gently.

"Master Daoist! The water is getting hot soon, so prepare your change of clothes first!"

Abo yelled, Tao Xinian bounced up, rubbed his eyes, and got out of bed to put away his clothes.Yuan Yao was feeding the horses and camels in the yard. It seemed that the luggage was almost packed, and all the large and small bags on the camels had been unloaded.He yawned and said, "Alright, is the water hot?"

"It's hot! Come here to fetch water." Abo yelled at him, "Finish yours, and theirs, hurry up."

A fine snowflake landed on the tip of his nose, he sneezed, looked up at the sky, and said, "It's snowing again."

Che Anxing was chopping firewood beside him, and he said, "This snow will fall heavily, and it won't stop in about seven days. We just happened to be in time, and arrived at Mui City before the snow fell."

Tao Xinian touched his nose, then he could only stay at home recently.But it’s okay, as long as there is a fire to cook, books to read, and someone to chat with, life will never be boring.
