stepson

Chapter 12

There were too many people coming to Bailong Mountain for the vegetarian meeting, and it was still early for Su Zhaoxue and Mingbao's turn, so he led Mingbao to the Bailong Temple for a stroll, poor child, who had not been to the temple yet.

After strolling around, the two were so hungry that they couldn't take it anymore, so Su Zhaoxue took Mingbao to eat grilled fish. There was a natural pond on the back mountain of Bailong Temple, and all the fish were caught there.Su Zhaoxue rolled up her sleeves, took off her boots, took a wooden stick and got into the water, while Ming Bao lit a fire on the bank.

In April, the sky was not too hot, and the water in the pond was still very cold, which made Su Zhaoxue shiver.His eyes were fixed on the bottom of the water, and when he saw a fish swimming by, he picked up the wooden stick and stabbed it down fiercely. A herring was pierced on the stick.After throwing the fish up, he caught three more and threw them up.

Remove the fish scales, cut open the belly, wash it, put it on a wooden stick and bake it.While flipping the fish, Ming Bao said, "My lord, will the Buddha blame us if we kill and eat meat quietly in the Buddhist gate? It's the Buddha's birthday today, isn't it a big sin?"

Su Zhaoxue gave him a smile, and said with a light smile: "You are an afterthought, the fish was roasted, and you thought of the Buddha?"

"Didn't you just think of it?" Ming Bao rubbed his head in embarrassment.

"Whether he blames it or not, it's a big deal. In my next life, I will be reincarnated as a fish and be eaten by people." For Su Zhaoxue, who had no faith and was once a modern person, eating fish in the temple was no pressure.

"Then I'm the same as the young master." Ming Bao flipped the fish with a smile, smelling the smell of grilled fish vigorously with his nose.

After the fish was cooked, Su Zhaoxue tasted it. There was no salt or seasoning, so it was not tasty.He was a bit picky about food, and only broke half of the fish, and gave the rest to Ming Bao.Mingbao was hungry when he was a child, and he cared very much about what he ate, so he picked up the fishbone and started to eat it.

Suddenly there was a slight voice from the forest, Su Zhaoxue asked Mingbao to stay here.He got up and went into the woods, walking towards the direction of the sound.Seeing the two people stop and talk in front of a tomb, Su Zhaoxue stopped and hid in the woods to look at them.

After seeing one of them clearly, he was slightly taken aback, Weiyuan Hou Su Shunyu, why is he here?Su Zhaoxue was puzzled, and her eyes fell on another person, a man of about 36 or [-] years old. He was a little far away, so he couldn't see his appearance clearly, but only felt that he had a graceful temperament.Weiyuan Marquis Su Shunyu's attitude was very respectful. He stood a few steps behind the man's left hand side. Su Shunyu nodded and bowed repeatedly while listening to the man's words.

To be treated like this by a marquis, I am afraid that his status is not low. It seems that the man is a member of the royal family.Su Zhaoxue thought about it, there are only the emperor's two younger brothers among the 36 seven-year-olds in the royal family, but they don't know who they are.

The man looked up, as if thinking about something.After a while, he came back to his senses and squatted on the ground to shake the weeds beside the tomb. Su Shunyu squatted down to help.

Although he had been here when he was a child, he had never been to the depths of the forest.He didn't even know that there was another tomb there. I'm afraid that the identity of the person buried here is not simple.After watching them weeding, Su Shunyu and the man walked to the front yard of Bailong Temple.

Seeing those two people going away until they were out of sight, Su Zhaoxue's curiosity drove him to the tomb.The white marble tombstone is engraved with "the heart of the old man will last forever, and the heart of the old man will not be seen." The inscription was established in Yunxi in the 18th year of Tianqi.This year is the 35th year of Kai, and the person in the tomb has been dead for 17 years.

The person named Yunxi must be blaming the people in the tomb. Su Zhaoxue has heard this poem before, and it comes from the last two lines of Xie Tiao's "Poetry of Compassion with Wang Zhu Ji Zhe".The translation in common words is, I still love you, but you have changed your mind and fell in love with someone else.This is a poem of resentment. Could it be that the people in the tomb failed this person named Yunxi?

For some reason, Su Zhaoxue looked at the tombstone, thinking wildly, and always felt weird.

"My lord, what are you doing?" Ming Bao's voice came from behind, Su Zhaoxue came back to his senses, withdrew his lost thoughts, turned around and walked towards Ming Bao.

"Ah, why is there a tomb here?" Ming Bao was surprised when he saw the tomb.

Su Zhaoxue's mood suddenly fell for some reason.He said: "Okay, now it's our turn for the fast meeting, let's go."

"Young master, what's the matter?" Seeing his young master, Ming Bao was fine just now, why did he change his face all of a sudden?

"It's okay." Su Zhaoxue shook her head, trying to get rid of the inexplicable emotions just now.

"It's fine." Ming Bao stepped forward to hold his hand and said.

Arriving at the front yard of Bailong Temple, Su Zhaoxue subconsciously went to look for the two people she saw just now, but Su Shunyu and that person had disappeared.The fast meeting was held in a side hall of Bailong Temple. He went in with Ming Bao to have a look, but it was not their turn yet, so he went out again.When passing by a side courtyard, I heard a familiar voice.Before Su Zhaoxue realized who it was, Ming Bao had already called out.

"It's Sima Scholar."

Su Zhaoxue's heart skipped a beat, feeling a little guilty, he grabbed Ming Bao's hand and wanted to turn around and leave.But Ming Bao withdrew his hand, glanced at the side courtyard, and deliberately lowered his voice when he came back: "My lord, Scholar Sima was talking with a woman, and that woman seems to be the one we saw when we passed the teahouse up the mountain. "

"Will they have an affair inside?" Ming Bao winked and asked with a smirk.After finishing speaking, he said again: "Scholar Sima is already married, isn't he afraid of his father-in-law?"

"I'm afraid, people won't be afraid? He has great ability." Su Zhaoxue said something pointing, and he also walked to the entrance of the courtyard and looked inside.Seeing that Sima Lingyun was wearing a Confucian shirt, his figure was rather thin.A pair of captivating peach blossom eyes on the fair skin, looking affectionately at that willful and savage noble girl, said something, the girl lowered her head at the moment, shyly raised her head and looked at Sima Lingyun secretly.

I have to say that Sima Lingyun's appearance is in line with the current aesthetics, and he is gentle and personable.It's just that this kind of horse's character will never change. Su Zhaoxue has met him three times, and three times he has been entangled with women.

He turned around and pulled Ming Bao up to leave quickly, he didn't want to see Sima Lingyun.After stealing his ring, Su Zhaoxue might lose all confidence in front of Sima Lingyun forever.

Before he took two steps, he saw the man who was with the girl, followed by a group of followers.Su Zhaoxue secretly glanced at him with a half-smile, and said in her heart, she looks like a man, but it's a pity that the hat on his head is green.

Shang Xuanlie was so sensitive, he felt Su Zhaoxue's strange eyes coming towards him, and he became suspicious, he stopped in his tracks, raised his eyebrows and asked: "My lord, there is something wrong with my face, why is my lord acting like this?" Look at me?"

"No, I'm just wondering why the young lady who was with the young master disappeared." Su Zhaoxue said with a light smile.

"You don't need to care about this." Shang Xuanlie thought of the restless princess running around, and anger rose in his eyes.

He doesn't want to meddle in other people's business, Sima Lingyun, don't let this person catch you, your golden fingers are of little use now.

"Oh, then I still have something to do, so let's go ahead." Su Zhaoxue saluted with her fists cupped, and pulled Mingbao away.

Shang Xuanlie turned around and looked at his back, wondering why this person suddenly reminded Princess Yilian?Hmph, I must have seen Yilian and didn't want to tell him.
