Lotus Pavilion

Wu Bai came here again, and he found that Yuan was already sitting in the pavilion.

"I didn't expect the master to come here so early." Wu Bai said with a smile. He remembered that Yuan usually came here to fish in the afternoon.

Liao Yuan smiled lightly and said: "The environment here is beautiful, and the poor monk only discovered the unique beauty of the lotus pond in the early morning today. Benefactor Wu, please sit down."

"I see." Wu Bai nodded and sat on the stool casually.

"Why did Benefactor Wu come here so early?" Liao Yuan asked curiously.

Wu Bai replied: "I just left the mountain gate to see my mother off. I had nothing to do, so I wandered around in the temple. I came here unknowingly. I didn't expect the master to be here."

"Amitabha, the poor monk hereby wishes Benefactor Wu a smooth journey." Liao Yuan clasped his hands together and made a prayer gesture.

"Thank you Master for praying for my mother." Wu Bai stood up and bowed down to thank.

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

Wu Bai looked at the lotus flowers shrouded in mist around him, and asked, "I wonder if Master can play chess?"

"The poor monk knows a thing or two." Liao Yuan said modestly.

"Master is humble." Wu Bai turned to Yuqing and said, "Go to my room and get the chess box."

Yuqing nodded and said, "Yes, my lord."

"I didn't expect Benefactor Wu to bring a chess box to Huabao Temple?" Liao Yuan said in surprise.

"Hahaha, the environment in the temple is quiet, and I planned to play chess alone to pass the time, but I didn't expect to meet the master, so I can ask the master for advice." Wu Bai said with a smile.

"Hahaha, benefactor Wu will enjoy himself." Liao Yuanlang laughed.

Soon, Yuqing brought the chess box over, and Wu Bai opened the chess box, took out the chess basket and chessboard inside and placed them on the stone table.

Liao Yuan grabbed a black chess piece, and in an instant, he exclaimed: "This chess piece is as firm and smooth as jade, and it is not inferior to agate and amber. It is really a rare and good product."

Wu Bai said with a slight smile: "This chess piece was given to me by my father, and it was given by one of his students. It is said that jade of this material is abundant in the hometown of that senior brother. This chess piece is also warm in winter and cool in summer."

"No wonder I don't feel cold when I touch this chess piece." Liao Yuan suddenly said.

"Haha, master first." Wu Bai raised his hand and said.

"Okay." Liao Yuan put the sunspots in his hand on the chessboard, and then said to Wu Bai: "Please benefactor."

Wu Bai grabbed a white piece and put it on the chessboard, and the two of them formally played chess.

Yuqing couldn't understand the chess game, so he sat silently by the fence of the pavilion, stretched out his hands outside the pavilion, and fiddled with the lotus leaves in his hands.

Capital

King Li took Feng Zining out for shopping, bought her a lot of things, and finally coaxed her well. He heaved a sigh of relief and walked towards the study. He still had a lot of business to do.

Just when he was about to step into the study, the singer walked towards him and said with a grievance on her face, "My lord, have you not brought justice to my concubine?"

"Zi Ning is in a bad mood recently. She didn't mean to hurt you. You don't want to trouble Zi Ning in the future. I believe she will never do anything to you again." Li Wang explained.

"Is that the case that she hit me before?" Diva said dissatisfied.

"You go back first, this king will send you the best golden sore medicine later, to ensure that the wound on your face will soon return to its previous appearance." Li Wang urged.

"By the way, from tomorrow onwards, you will stay in your own yard and don't come out for a walk, so as not to offend the princess."

Song Ji looked at Li Wang in disbelief, she never thought that not only was she beaten, but now she was also grounded.

"My lord..."

King Li waved his hand and said: "Okay, you go down first, I still have official business, I don't have time to mess around with you."

"...the concubine didn't mess around, it was the concubine who first touched the concubine..." The singer was dumbfounded for a moment, and was about to argue, but when she saw Prince Li looking at her with a cold face, she immediately died down.

After the singer left, King Li walked into the study and sat on the chair. He reached out and stroked his forehead, and sighed: "No one is worry-free."

On the other side, Feng Zining was holding the jade hairpin that King Li bought for her, and was about to put it on her head when she suddenly remembered the rumors she heard when she just woke up from this body. It is said that Wu Bai is very fond of all kinds of jade hairpins , and King Li bought a jade hairpin for Wu Bai, but Wu Bai did not accept it. At that time, the rumors spread in the capital, especially among the servants of Prince Li's mansion.

Some servants of Prince Li's mansion felt that Wu Bai didn't know good and bad, and dared to reject the prince, while others thought that Wu Bai was just playing hard to get, and sooner or later he would be taken into the backyard by Prince Li.

When she heard this rumor at first, she didn't feel anything, but now thinking of it, Feng Zining only felt very shocked, as if Wu Bai had become a thorn in her heart.

She angrily put down the jade hairpin and threw it on the dressing table casually, allowing the hairpin to be torn apart.

"Wu Bai——" Feng Zining gritted her teeth and said the name, suddenly, hatred flashed in her eyes.

.........

Matchmaker Wang came to Xiao Wangfu again with a lot of portraits.

Concubine Xiao happily asked people to put the portrait on the table, and ordered people to serve her tea.

"It took me a lot of effort to find these portraits." Matchmaker Wang said confidently, "There must be someone the prince likes."

"Let Matchmaker Wang bother you." Concubine Xiao said gratefully, then turned her head and told the servant girl, "Go and invite the prince here."

"Yes, Princess." The servant girl retreated in response.

When she passed by the table, she accidentally knocked a portrait to the ground, and the portrait immediately scattered.

Seeing this situation, the servant girl quickly squatted down, ready to close the portrait.

"Wait." Princess Xiao called to stop her.

Concubine Xiao got up, walked to the portrait, picked it up, and asked Matchmaker Wang, "Is this the portrait you worked so hard to find?"

Matchmaker Wang nodded and said, "Yes! It took me a lot of effort to collect these portraits."

"Look at what are these paintings? This person's left eye is so much bigger than his right eye." Princess Xiao suddenly remembered something when she said this, and she unfolded the portrait on the table to look at it, and she was immediately taken aback. Angry.

"How on earth did you find someone? You actually found some crooked melons and cracked dates!" Princess Xiao stared at Wang Matchmaker with an unkind expression.

"Princess, you can't blame me!" Wang Matchmaker explained, "The portrait I found for the prince a few days ago was the most famous portrait of the young man in the capital, but the prince didn't like any of it. The prince's vision is different from ours, so I brought these portraits."

"I said that Zimo's vision is different from other people's, but his vision is not so bad." Princess Xiao retorted.

"Wangfei, why don't you ask the prince to ask, what if he likes it?" Wang Matchmaker said tentatively.

"You!" Concubine Xiao originally wanted to get angry, but just as Xiao Zimo walked in from the outside, she suppressed her anger.

"Mother Concubine." Xiao Zimo shouted.

"Zimo, why are you here?" Princess Xiao asked.

Xiao Zimo replied: "I heard that Matchmaker Wang is coming to the house, so I came to have a look."

"Is this a newly sent portrait?" Xiao Zimo walked to the table and opened the portrait for inspection.

"Why is everything so weird?"

Matchmaker Wang could see that Xiao Zimo didn't like the person in the portrait, so she quickly explained, "I got it wrong."

Hearing this, Concubine Xiao's face was also much prettier, she said: "Yes, Wang Matchmaker is so careless, she even took the wrong portrait, I was talking to her about this, and you came unexpectedly. "

"I see." Xiao Zimo nodded.

Xiao Zimo talked with them for a while, and then left the hall.

As soon as he left, Concubine Xiao's face immediately turned down: "Matchmaker Wang, do you think that my Xiao Mansion can be bullied by anyone if you act like this?"

Matchmaker Wang hurriedly knelt down and begged for mercy: "I also ask the princess to forgive me. This time it is true that my old age is not doing things well, but it is not fruitless. At least these candidates are excluded. In this way, there are fewer candidates to choose from. Please give me another chance, Wangfei, and I will definitely get things done!"

"Go away! This is the last chance!" Princess Xiao said angrily.

"Yes, yes, I promise to handle the matter well." Matchmaker Wang promised.

Wu family

Mother Wu got off the carriage and walked into the mansion.

"Madam, are you back?" Father Wu said in surprise.

"Yeah, I've been in Huabao Temple for half a month. Brother Bai seems to be quite used to life there, and there are many things waiting for me to deal with in the mansion, so I'm back." Mother Wu explained.

"Did Brother Bai really adapt to the life there? Did you meet Master Yuan there?" Father Wu asked.

Mother Wu nodded and said with a smile: "We met Master Yuan on the first day we went, and he also said that Brother Bai is a person with great luck."

Hearing this, Father Wu said happily: "Master Liao Yuan really said that?"

"Well, we didn't say a few words when we first met, and he said that Brother Bai is very lucky." Mother Wu nodded and replied.

Father Wu put down the teacup, stroked his hands and said, "Great, since the master said so, it seems that Brother Bai will really be a blessed person in the future. Now, the tone in my heart is much more relieved."

"Master Liaoyuan is worthy of being an eminent monk who has attained the Tao. He seems to be approachable and approachable, and he seems to value Brother Bai very much." Wu's mother said.

"This is very good. It is Brother Bai's blessing to be valued by Master Yuan." Father Wu said with satisfaction.

"Well, fortunately, I promised to send Brother Bai to Huabao Temple." Mother Wu recalled.

"Bai Geer is not in the capital, and the rumors in the capital are gradually dissipating now. I reckon that we can bring Bai Geer back before the year." Wu's father looked forward to it.

"Really? That's great." Mother Wu said happily.

In the room, the two were talking with smiles on their faces. On the roof, Feng Zining listened to the conversation between the Wu family and his wife, her eyes and eyebrows were stained with a trace of hostility, and she sneered in her heart: Since you want to bring him back so much, then I do what you want, I hope that when you see him, you are really willing to take him back!

Feng Zining came to Wu's house this time to inquire about Wu Bai's whereabouts. The last time she came here, she only learned that Wu Bai was no longer in the house, but it was unknown where Wu Bai had gone. Thinking of how lucky I was, I heard Wu's couple mention Wu Bai's whereabouts not long after I came to Wu's mansion.

Knowing Wu Bai's whereabouts, Feng Zining didn't stay any longer, she quietly came down from the roof, avoiding the inspection of Wu's mansion guards, jumped a few times, and appeared outside Wu's mansion.

When she returned to Prince Li's mansion again, she found that Prince Li was waiting for her in her room.

"Where did you go?" King Li asked.

"I was idle and bored, so I went out for a stroll." Feng Zining said perfunctorily.

"I asked the concierge, and he said he didn't see you leaving the mansion." Li Wang replied.

"I went out through the side door." Feng Zining didn't want to continue this topic, showing a bit of impatience on his face.

King Li had no choice but to swallow his words back. He originally wanted to say that he had also asked the porter guarding the side door, and the other party also said that he had not seen her go out. Seeing that Feng Zining's complexion was not good at this moment, he did not say this.

"What do you want from me?" Feng Zining asked impatiently.

"It's okay, I just missed you, and I came here to see you." Li Wang replied.

Feng Zining was a little angry about King Li giving Wu Bai the hairpin. She didn't want to talk to King Li for the time being, so she said with a cold face, "I'm tired and want to rest."

"Okay, you rest first, and I'll come and have dinner with you after dinner." King Li didn't force him, and agreed as he said.
