After reading the whole family's minds, the eldest daughter awakened

Chapter 65 Li Youwei did not draw the marriage lottery

Li Youwei also fully understood the method of making the mechanism box from Chu Wangchen's explanation.

There was such an expression on her fair little face. When Chu Wangchen saw it, his heart moved slightly.

Wang Boyan followed the two of them, his heart aching all the time, but he had to admit that they seemed to be a better match standing together.

Gongsun Qiao's eyes were always on the two of them, and when they arrived at the entrance of the national temple, she wanted to walk to Chu Wangchen, but Huangfu Chenyang stopped her first.

"Princess Anping, how about we go to burn incense and worship Buddha first, and then ask for a marriage fortune sign?"

Gongsun Qiao turned her gaze away from Chu Wangchen and returned to Huangfu Chenyang with a smile.

"Okay, let's go."

The guards responsible for protection hurriedly followed.

"Ahem, let's go there too."

Chu Wangchen invited Li Youwei and Nalan Ling very gentlemanly.

"Prince Wangchen, please."

The group of people came to the main hall, kowtowed to the Buddha statue enshrined in the center, offered incense, and began to cast lots.

Li Youwei just came with them and did not offer incense and ask for a fortune, because she knew that even if she wanted something, she would have to work hard to get it.

Because at the reception banquet yesterday, Gongsun Qiao was obviously interested in Huangfu Chenyang, so they cast the lot together this time.

The master who interpreted the lots saw the lots they had drawn, and smiled and congratulated them that they were all lucky enough to find their significant other soon.

While saying this, the master of interpretation turned his eyes between the two of them, which made Gongsun Qiao lower his head shyly.

Huangfu Chenyang was very happy and immediately donated a lot of sesame oil money.

Wang Boyan and Zhou Tengfei also cast their lots religiously.

Wang Boyan was unlucky. He drew a lottery ticket, and his marriage must have been rough.

He left the hall with a lonely look on his face. In fact, he had already guessed that, after all, it would be impossible for him and the person he loved most in this life.

Zhou Tengfei gingerly handed his signature to the signature interpreter.

"This benefactor, judging from this lot, your marriage was originally very unsatisfactory, but now it is getting better."

Everyone is wearing plain clothes today, and people from outside don't pay too much attention to people and things outside.

Therefore, the fortune teller treats everyone as a donor and does not pay too much attention to their true identity.

"Thank you, Master, I understand."

Zhou Tengfei secretly rejoiced that he made the right choice by staying with him in Dongguan City for three years.

Nalan Ling knew that Li Youwei didn't want to draw lots, so he knelt on one of the futons alone.

At this moment, someone was kneeling on the futon next to him.

Nalan Ling subconsciously looked over and saw that the man had strong features and a very tall figure. He had an aura about him that would keep strangers away.

When Nalan Ling looked over, the man happened to look over as well, and their eyes met in the air.

In the end, the man nodded as a greeting.

He looked away and was about to buckle, but was interrupted by the woman who came behind him.

"Xiaojue, why are you so rude? Miss Nalan, don't mind. He just has a dull temper."

The woman who spoke was a little fat, with a smile on her face, and she was looking at Nalan Ling lovingly.

Li Youwei recognized that this lady was the wife of the Minister of the Ministry of Justice, and the Xiao Jue she was talking about was Situ Jue, the legitimate son of the Minister of the Ministry of Justice.

Situ Jue also came out of Hongru Academy. He is now serving in the Ministry of Punishment and is Li Youwei's senior brother.

"Mrs. Shangshu, you're welcome. Hello, senior brother Jue."

Nalan Ling greeted Situ Jue with a smile.

"Hello, Miss Nalan."

Situ Jue replied, and then kowtowed quickly, as if he was dealing with official business. Mrs. Shangshu looked like she hated iron, but she could only shake her head helplessly.

After kowtowing, the two drew lots together.

After drawing the lots, Situ Jue handed his lot to Madam Shangshu. After greeting everyone, he strode out of the main hall.

Mrs. Shangshu was not in a hurry to interpret the signature, but asked Nalan Ling to interpret it first.

Nalan Ling was unlucky and actually drew a lottery. The lottery master told her that her marriage was not going well, but the final result was good.

Nalan Ling breathed a sigh of relief, stood up and hugged Li Youwei's arm.

Chu Wangchen stood beside Li Youwei and invited sincerely.

"Miss Li, don't you want one?"

After hearing Chu Wangchen's words, several eyes fell on Li Youwei.

Li Youwei shook his head, "I won't smoke anymore."

Chu Wangchen shook his head regretfully, "Then I will accompany you."

Chu Wangchen's words made everyone's eyes wander on him and Li Youwei.

Li Youwei smiled openly, "Thank you, Prince Wangchen."

If you explain or tweak, others will only guess more outrageously. If you do it so openly, everyone will just think that you are overthinking.

After finishing the marriage lottery, Gongsun Qiao suggested to tie a silk ribbon on the big tree behind the main hall to make a wish.

The original purpose was to entertain Gongsun Qiao and Chu Wangchen, so naturally they could do whatever they wanted.

A number of ribbons on the big trees have been cleaned up, but many new ones have been hung.

Three years ago, Li Youwei and Nalan Ling made a wish under this tree. At this moment, they put their palms together and fulfilled their wish devoutly in their hearts.

Gongsun Qiao wrote her wish directly on the ribbon and hung it on the top of the tree.

Zhou Tengfei also wrote down his wish, but with his skill, he very wisely placed it in a position where he could reach it by raising his hand.

Huangfu Chenyang and Wang Boyan also wrote their wishes, leaving Chu Wangchen alone. He clasped his hands together and seemed to be looking beyond the big tree into the distance.

"Prince Wangchen, would you like to make a wish too?"

Huangfu Chenyang warmly invited Chu Wangchen.

"Ahem, thank you Prince Chenyang, but no need. My wish is that I can live a few more years."

After he finished speaking, he coughed violently again, which made those who heard his words feel a little sad in their hearts.

Huangfu Chenyang hurriedly changed the topic to ease the atmosphere, "Prince Wangchen will definitely live a long life. We have finished writing our wishes and can walk around. The scenery here is very good."

"Then it's better to be respectful than to obey. Prince Chenyang, please lead the way."

The group walked around the temple, smelling the faint sandalwood, and their hearts calmed down.

After walking for a while, I saw the big clock on the back mountain.

Just like last time, Li Youwei and others were stopped by a chubby little monk about ten years old.

"Dear donors, you can't go up any further, it will be very dangerous."

Looking at the blocked entrance to the mountain, Gongsun Qiao turned to Huangfu Chenyang.

"Prince Chenyang, I want to climb to the top of the mountain and look down. Is that okay?"

The national temple is built on the mountainside. If you want to reach the top of the mountain, you have to continue climbing from here.

Huangfu Chenyang considered everyone's safety and Wen Sheng rejected Gongsun Qiao's proposal.

"Princess Anping, there are many wild animals on the mountain, so we'd better not go up there."

"Yeah, if you really want to climb the mountain, we can change seats."

The mountain where the National Temple is located is relatively high. In addition to this mountain, there are also shorter mountains in the capital. Usually young gentlemen and young ladies would choose such a short mountain when going on an outing or something.
