In the early morning of the next day, in front of Wu's mansion, several carriages slowly headed towards the city gate. Wu's father stood there, watching Wu Bai and the others walk away before turning around and entering the mansion.

On the carriage, Mother Wu asked Wu Bai with concern: "Brother Bai, how do you feel? Does your head still hurt?"

Wu Bai shook his head and said, "After sleeping, the pain is gone now, mother don't worry."

"That's good, that's good." Mother Wu said happily.

"Madam, son, these are freshly baked cakes from Bai Yuzhai." Yuqing took out the food box, took out the cakes inside and handed them to Wu Bai and the others.

Wu's mother took the pastry plate and said to Wu Bai: "Come on, try it quickly, it will fill your stomach."

"Thank you, mother." Wu Bai took the cake and said to Wu's mother at the same time: "Mom, let's eat some too!"

"Okay." Mother Wu nodded.

After eating breakfast, Wu's mother carefully looked at Wu Bai's expression, and found that there was no gloomy look on his face, and his heart relaxed a lot. She was afraid that the child would keep his worries in his stomach.

"Mother, can you introduce this Huabao Temple to me?" Wu Bai asked curiously.

"Of course." Wu's mother introduced, "Huabao Temple is an ancient temple of more than 2000 years. Although it was built in Meiluo Village near the capital, it is not well-known. It is said that the Empress Dowager likes Buddhism and plum blossoms. She often goes in and out. It is Huabao Temple that makes people notice it."

"However, I took you to Huabao Temple this time not because the Empress Dowager went there, but because your father heard that Master Yuan was placing orders at Huabao Temple." Mother Wu explained.

"Master Liaoyuan?" Wu Bai was at a loss.

"That's right, Master Liao Yuan is a master of Taoism. If Brother Bai can receive his blessing, everything will go well in this life." Mother Wu said happily.

Wu Bai smiled and said: "It is indeed a blessing to see such a tall man."

Two days later, Wu Bai and others came to Meiluo Village in a carriage.

Wu Bai lifted the curtain of the car, looked outside, and indeed saw a lot of plum blossom trees, but it's not the season of plum blossoms, so only the branches of the plum trees can be seen.

The carriage went all the way, passed through several plum forests, and stopped in front of Huabao Temple. The monks in the temple saw someone coming, and slowly came out to greet them.

"Amitabha, hello to all benefactors." The two monks greeted Wu Bai and the others.

"Amitabha, hello to the two masters." Mother Wu took the lead to return the salute.

"We plan to stay in the temple for a while, please trouble the two masters." Mother Wu explained her purpose of coming.

The two monks nodded to show their understanding. They raised their hands and said, "Please come to the almsgiver."

Then, Wu Bai and Wu's mother followed one of the monks to the main hall, and Yuqing and other servants followed the other monk to the backyard with their luggage.

Wu Bai's mother and son entered the main hall, first burned incense in front of the Buddha, and then donated money for sesame oil before being led to the backyard by the monks.

At this time, Yuqing and the others had already put all their luggage away.

The monk told everyone the rules of the temple before leaving.

"Ma'am, son, everything has been put away." Yuqing stepped forward and replied.

"Good job." Mother Wu said happily. .

"It's still early, let's go for a walk, maybe we can meet Master Yuan." Mother Wu looked at the sky and suggested.

Wu Bai agreed: "Good."

The two of them took Yuqing out of the courtyard and started to wander around the temple. Only then did Wu Bai discover that not only plum trees were planted in Meiluo Village, but also many plum trees were planted in Huabao Temple.

"I thought Huabao Temple was very small, but I didn't expect it to be quite big." Wu Bai said with emotion.

"What you said is actually correct. The Huabao Temple was really not big before. It was expanded by the Queen Mother before it became what it is now. Look, the lotus pond over there, the high tower, and the Tibetan temple over there. The Jing Pavilion was first built by the Empress Dowager." Mother Wu said, pointing to the distance.

"It seems that the Empress Dowager really likes Huabao Temple very much." Wu Bai agreed.

Mother Wu nodded and said, "Yes, it is said that she would come to Huabao Temple every winter to appreciate the plum blossoms and listen to the Buddha."

"Mother, look quickly, there seems to be someone fishing there, let's go over and say hello!" Wu Bai said, pointing to the pavilion in the middle of the lotus pond.

"Where is it?" Mother Wu tilted her head, but didn't see anyone.

"It's just under that pavilion." Wu Bai said.

"It's true, I was blocked by the stone table just now, and I didn't even see it." Mother Wu moved a few steps to the left before seeing the fisherman.

"Let's go." Wu Bai said.

"Yeah." Mother Wu nodded.

It's fine if they didn't see it, since they saw it, they should go up to say hello, the other party seems to be a monk from the temple, they are now in someone else's territory, so it's not surprising that they are so polite.

Wu Bai helped Wu's mother walk carefully across the wooden bridge to the lotus pavilion.

They were about to say hello when the other party raised his head and made a silent motion towards them.

Seeing this, Wu Bai and the others quickly closed their mouths, sat silently on the stone bench and waited.

After a while, the fishing rod in front of the monk moved. With a smile on his face, he raised the fishing rod. A fat fish was hanging on the hook, swinging non-stop. The monk retracted the hook skillfully and lifted the fish Take it out and put it in the bucket beside you.

Only then did the monk look at Wu Bai and the others, and asked, "Amitabha, hello to the benefactors."

"Amitabha, hello master, it's really a sin for me to come here uninvited and disturb master's pleasure." Mother Wu said apologetically.

"Haha, it's okay, the poor monk has been sitting here for several hours, this fish has been refusing to take the bait, and now it suddenly took the bait, it's really thanks to the nobleman who came here." The monk looked at Wu Bai and said.

He found that this little brother was covered with golden light of merit, no wonder the fish was willing to take the bait.

"Master was joking, how can we be called noble people." Mother Wu replied with a smile.

"Ma'am, I don't know. When the poor monk saw the little brother next to you, he knew that he was a man of great fortune." The monk said with a smile.

Everyone likes to hear good words, and Mother Wu is no exception. She smiled all over her face and said, "Thank you for your kind words, Master."

"The poor monk named Yuan, haven't you asked the names of the benefactors?" Liao Yuan asked.

Mother Wu said in surprise, "You are Master Liao Yuan!"

Liao Yuan nodded, "It's the poor monk."

"Wu Bai met Master Yuan." Wu Bai said politely.

"The benefactor doesn't need to be too polite." Liao Yuan waved his hand.

Wu Bai said with a smile: "I've heard about Master's reputation for a long time, and seeing him today, it's really extraordinary. I didn't expect Master to like fishing."

"The almighty praise of the benefactor is just a false name given by the world. It is not worth mentioning. Compared with the benefactor, the poor monk is ashamed of himself." Liao Yuan replied modestly.

Prince Xiao's Mansion

"This time, I will ask Matchmaker Wang." Concubine Xiao smiled and said to Matchmaker Wang who was sitting in front of her.

Matchmaker Wang flicked the big red handkerchief in her hand, and said with a chuckle: "Don't worry, Wangfei, I will definitely choose a satisfactory concubine for the prince."

"Of course I believe in Matchmaker Wang, so I invited you here." Concubine Xiao said with a smile.

While the two were talking, a servant ran in in a panic.

"Princess, it's not good, the prince has passed out."

Concubine Xiao was startled and said angrily: "What's going on?"

The servant replied tremblingly: "When the prince rode back to the residence, for some reason, the horse was startled. The prince accidentally fell off the horse's back and was unconscious at the moment."

"Where's the doctor? Hurry up and call the doctor." Concubine Xiao hurriedly stood up.

"The doctor is treating the son right now." The servant replied.

Concubine Xiao raised her foot and was about to walk out of the hall when she suddenly remembered that Matchmaker Wang was still there. She stopped and said to Matchmaker Wang, "There is something going on in the house today, so I will ask Matchmaker Wang to come and talk about it some other day."

Matchmaker Wang nodded quickly and said, "I understand."

"Come and see off the guests." Princess Xiao said.

After saying this, Concubine Xiao didn't care about the etiquette, and directly left the hall and went to the Shizi's courtyard.

Matchmaker Wang looked at her back and sighed secretly, this great happy event was just about to come, how could such a thing happen!

When Concubine Xiao arrived, other people in Xiao's residence were surrounding the bed watching the doctor's pulse diagnosis.

"How is Zimo?" Concubine Xiao asked worriedly as she squeezed into the front.

The doctor withdrew his hand, stood up and said, "My son is lucky, he fell off his horse, and only had some skin injuries."

"It's just a skin injury, so why is he still unconscious?" Princess Xiao asked anxiously.

"After all, he fell off the horse. It is inevitable that the son will be frightened. It will be fine after he sleeps for a while. Wangfei, please rest assured." The doctor reassured.

After speaking, the doctor took out the golden sore medicine from the medicine box and applied it to Xiao Zimo.

"Thank you, doctor." Everyone in the Xiao family thanked the doctor.

"This is what the old man should do." The doctor stroked his beard and said.

He was originally the doctor hired by the Xiao family, and it was his duty to treat illnesses and injuries for everyone in the Xiao family.

When the doctor left here, Xiao Zimo on the bed closed his eyes and started talking nonsense.

"Fu Lang, you are so beautiful today!"

"Fu Lang, what do you think when we go out of the city to pick peach blossoms to make wine when we rest tomorrow?"

"Fulang, this is the candied haws I bought for you. Give me a kiss and I'll give it to you."

"Fu Lang, I bought you Chao Chao you like to eat, huh? You don't like Chao Chao now? Well, I will eat it myself."

"Fu Lang, this case..."

Everyone in the Xiao Mansion looked at Xiao Zimo, who was on the bed with his eyes closed, grinning and talking nonsense, and looked at each other.

After a long while, Prince Xiao was speechless and said: "Zimo, this boy, usually talks about marrying him a daughter-in-law, but in the end he pushes back and forth. Now the truth is revealed. In the dream, he even has a husband."

"...If I had known earlier, I shouldn't have sent Wang Matchmaker away." Concubine Xiao said regretfully.

"Why are you looking for Matchmaker Wang?" Everyone in the Xiao family looked at Concubine Xiao.

Concubine Xiao explained: "Zimo is not young, I want to ask Matchmaker Wang to help him find a concubine."

"The matchmakers you were looking for before were kicked out by Zimo, how dare you look for them?" Everyone looked at Princess Xiao in admiration.

"The concierge said that Zimo had gone out of the house, so I invited Wang Matchmaker here." Princess Xiao explained.

Listening to Xiao Zimo's muttering, Lord Xiao sighed, "I never thought that Zimo is usually stubborn, but in his dream he is very kind to Fu Lang."

"In the past, I asked Matchmaker Wang to find young ladies from aristocratic families. Now it seems that Zimo likes the younger brother more. It seems that I have to send someone to inform Matchmaker Wang so that she can change the candidates." Xiao Wangfei Xu Sheng Said.

Xiao Zimo on the bed slowly opened his eyes, he propped himself up and scanned the people in the room, and said, "Where is my husband?"

Everyone in the Xiao family was discussing Xiao Zimo's marriage, when they heard a commotion on the bed, they hurriedly looked at Xiao Zimo.

"Zimo, it's great that you're awake." Princess Xiao rushed to the bed and said happily.

Xiao Zimo looked at her and asked again: "Where is my husband?"

Concubine Xiao let out a chuckle, tapped his forehead, and said: "You silly boy, you haven't married yet, how can you get your husband!"

"Don't I have a husband?" Xiao Zimo blinked and said, "I clearly dreamed of him just now, and he is teaching me how to brew peach blossom wine!"

"Zimo must be sick and confused, please quickly invite the doctor to show him." The old princess said worriedly.

The doctor was invited again, he checked Xiao Zimo carefully, and said: "The son's body is fine. He just woke up, and he is inevitably in a trance. He takes the dream seriously, as long as he stays in bed and rests, he will get better."

"That's right! Then we can rest assured." Everyone in the Xiao family breathed a sigh of relief.

Xiao Zimo explained: "This is not a dream, I can feel that he is my husband."

"Okay, mother knows, I have already found Wang Matchmaker, she will help you find Husband back." Princess Xiao comforted.

"En." Xiao Zimo then closed his eyes and fell asleep again. He thought it would be faster to see Fu Lang in his dream.
