Chapter 54 The day of foundation building is tonight!
The next day.
A large group and a small group drove away from the gate of Prince Fu's Mansion in a carriage.
In the big carriage were the princess and the young prince, and in the small carriage were two maids accompanying them, one of whom was Magnolia.
Yu Xian rode a horse at the front, with four palace guards following behind the carriage.
Thinking of the time when she left, the princess deliberately kept a distance from him and pretended to be indifferent, which made Eunuch Li happy, as if she was finally worthy of the prince.
Yu Xian almost couldn't help laughing.
How could this old eunuch, who had never experienced love between a man and a woman in his life, know that sometimes, for a woman, she just wants something if she doesn't want it.
His one move was to turn retreat into advance, and he was already in an invincible position.
On the contrary, he had to thank Eunuch Li for pointing out the adultery between the two, otherwise the princess would still have dreams of sleeping and flying with him.
To him, the princess is like a piece of delicious White Rabbit toffee. It will be very sweet if you eat it occasionally, but if you eat it all the time, it will be a little sweet and sticky.
Now he deliberately keeps a distance, which is exactly what he wants.
Yu Xian leisurely swung his riding whip and led the convoy out of Kyoto City and arrived at the Liuli Temple on the outskirts.
Liuli Temple has existed since the founding of the Yue Kingdom.
The first abbot of Liuli Temple was a fierce general who followed Emperor Taizu of the Yue Kingdom and made great contributions to the founding of the country.
Later, it was said that Da Che and Da Wu saw through the world of mortals and became a monk. Taizu of the Yue Kingdom felt his merits and rewarded him many times.
Coupled with the favor of several subsequent emperors, the small temple that once occupied only a few dozen acres has become a large Buddhist temple that occupies a hilltop with 800 monks and millions of believers.
Eunuch Li had greeted him in advance, and with the sign of Prince Fu's Mansion, as soon as the carriage arrived at the foot of the mountain, a Zhike monk came to greet him.
A group of people walked up the mountain.
Along the way, a knowledgeable monk introduced the attractions of Liuli Temple and talked about the history and culture, which did not make it boring.
At the temple gate, Yu Xian donated three thousand taels of incense money in the merit box in front of Zhike Monk, and Zhike Monk's smile became more sincere and enthusiastic.
The presiding abbot also came out to say hello.
Although the young prince's title of Prince Fu is now a mascot, he is still a real relative of the emperor. The current emperor calls him his nephew.
The status is still very high.
The abbot is an old monk with eyebrows longer than his beard. He is a bit fat and looks very rich. He smiles like a Maitreya Buddha.
However, Yu Xian saw that the qi and blood on his body were condensed and not dispersed. It seemed to be empty, but in fact it was hidden in one point. He must have practiced the art of nourishing qi and storing essence, and he could burst out the qi and blood in an instant.
The abbot smiled and sent the group to the guest room, and gave a sermon to everyone. He also asked a young novice to be at his command at all times before he took his leave and left.
The group walked a long way up the mountain and rested in the guest room.
At noon, a monk from the temple brought a vegetarian meal. The cooking skills were good, but the portion was a bit small. I don’t know how the old abbot got so fat.
In the afternoon.
In my spare time, I accompanied the princess and the others to the back mountain to enjoy the flowers.
Chrysanthemums are everywhere, golden, like a golden carpet covering the earth, and there is a fragrant floral fragrance in the air.
But some people don't understand the style.
The young prince stood in the flower field with the wooden stick he had picked up, with his hands on his hips, like a mighty general. Then with a few blows, he cut down three parts of the flower field.
Then he was caught by the princess who was full of resentment and had no way to vent her anger. She pinned her down on her legs and spanked her hard several times.
As a result, my son laughed at me and said proudly that my mother's hands were weak and her butt didn't hurt at all.
The princess angrily found a stick and beat the young prince until he screamed and chased me in the flower field.
Seeing this scene, Yu Lan nestled in Yu Xian's arms, laughing so hard that she couldn't stand up straight.
The time passed quickly as the group of people fought and joked.
In the end, Yu Xian gave twenty taels of silver to the monk who was guarding the place, which was regarded as buying the chrysanthemums that the young prince had toyed with.
Dinner was still a vegetarian meal, without any oil or water.
The little prince, who has always been fond of meat, ate a few bites and wanted to go home. However, he was blocked by the braised pork that Yu Xian conjured up from nowhere. He chewed it so much that his cheeks were sore.
There are lanterns to watch at Liuli Temple at night, but everyone was tired from playing during the day, so they planned to watch it the next day.
guest room.
Yu Lan and Yu Xian lived in the middle room.
There are two rooms next door, one where the princess lives, and the other where the maid and the young prince sleep, so that they can take care of them easily.
As for the four royal guards brought here, after all, they were here to make up the numbers. Under someone's instruction, they all lived in relatively remote areas.
The night is getting darker.
The princess was lying on the bed, tossing and turning, unable to sleep.
It looks like there are ants crawling on her body.
The princess thought she could bear it, but when the prince was still alive, he would not come to see her once for two or three months.
But now it's only been a few days, and she already feels like she's going crazy.
I don’t know how much time passed.
The sounds next door finally stopped.
The princess breathed a sigh of relief, thinking that she could finally sleep now.
But she squinted for a while and still couldn't fall asleep.
finally,
She suddenly sat up from the bed, put on her clothes, quietly opened the door and stretched out her head, looking around and seeing no one.
Then he tiptoed gently to the next room.
With a slight push, the door was unlocked!
"elder sister?"
Magnolia heard the noise and shyly pulled up the quilt to cover her chest, using the faint moonlight to see the person clearly.
"Shh!"
Yulan put her hand in front of her mouth and said in a very low voice:
"Sister, don't make any noise, my husband is practicing."
Yulan wrapped herself in a quilt and walked barefoot on the ground, but she didn't feel cold at all.
Since three months ago, she had not yet broken through to the second level of Qi training, so she began to practice martial arts as well.
With the nourishment of various medicines, especially after taking a pill called Hubao Pill, she has now reached the martial arts realm of the mid-acquired stage.
You must know that ordinary people who have practiced martial arts for more than ten years are considered qualified if they can break through the acquired realm.
This is the superiority of immortal cultivators over martial arts.
Immortal cultivators can enter the body with spiritual energy and refine the spiritual energy at the beginning of Qi training. They start with innate pure Qi. It is not too easy to practice martial arts.
Especially Yu Lan and Yu Xian, a master of perfect qi training, were watching.
Even if he follows the steps step by step, in a year at most, Yulan will be able to break through the innate realm of martial arts and have the power to tear apart tigers and leopards.
Hearing this, the princess felt as if a basin of cold water had been poured on her. All her impulses died down. The heat in her body faded away, and she suddenly felt a chill.
The weather is approaching autumn, and it is very cool at night.
"Why is he practicing now? He just finished that thing and he's not ashamed."
The princess and Yulan retreated to the corner of the room and looked at Yi Xian, who was shirtless and sitting there with his eyes closed and meditating, and couldn't help lowering his voice and spat.
Yulan thoughtfully gave half of the quilt to the princess.
The two of them wrapped themselves together for warmth, and the princess immediately felt as if she was holding a heater.
"Yulan, you feel so warm, and it feels so comfortable to hold you."
Yulan smiled, puffed up her chest, and said with some pride:
"My husband is a strange person, and practicing martial arts now has his own reasons.
As for my body being so warm, it's because my husband is teaching me martial arts. Now that I'm an acquired martial artist, my energy and blood are strong, so I'm naturally not cold anymore. "
The princess looked at Yu Xian with a bit of envy in her eyes.
"He's so kind to you."
…
Yu Xian knew that the princess was coming, but did not make any move.
Although he was a little surprised by the princess's boldness, his own cultivation was more important than some romantic enjoyment.
The reason why he chose to travel to Liuli Temple was naturally not out of nowhere, but because after more than half a year of practice, he was about to make a breakthrough.
After all, he has no experience in breaking through foundation building.
Because he was worried about what strange things would happen if he broke through in Kyoto.
You must know that there may be an old monster hiding in the palace, who knows whether it will cause unnecessary trouble.
However, he did not choose any deep mountains and old forests, but Liuli Temple.
There are few adults in Liuli Temple, and the area is vast and sparsely populated. This guest room is in a corner, and even if there is some movement, it will not attract anyone's attention.
The most important thing is that he came here to inquire before, and there was no trace of the immortal cultivator here.
Even if there was a slight accident, the few palace guards and princesses he brought with him were enough to block prying eyes.
After practicing several times with Yulan just now, he finally filled up the experience bar.
Without any surprise, he had already seen the shadow of Zhuji.
The day of foundation building is tonight!
