Chapter 111
After breakfast, Zhao Yuanxiang helped the old lady into the carriage at the back door, Nanny Li and Qingsang sat in the carriage behind, and four other guards followed on horseback.

Passing through the lively long street, the carriage exited the south gate and headed all the way to Shanhua Temple.

As the Chinese New Year approaches, no matter they are high-ranking officials or ordinary people, they all come to pay homage to Bodhisattva before the end of the new year, in order to pray for their fortune in the coming year.

The weather was fine today, and there were quite a few people going to offer incense. On the way, Zhao Yuanxiang saw several carriages coming from the city.

Once out of the city on a rare occasion, Zhao Yuanxiang opened the car curtain all the way to look outside. Although the grass and trees were withered and yellow, his vision was wide open. It seemed that people's minds were also broadened, and those troubles that were suppressed in their hearts were temporarily left Go to the back of your head.

Shanhua Temple is located halfway up the mountain. Whether it is a dignitary or a commoner who comes here, they have to climb up the steps in person. After a journey of nearly half an hour, they can reach the inside of Shanhua Temple.

The purpose of Shanhua Temple built on the mountainside is to escape from the world and stay away from the world of mortals, and to stop those hypocritical fake pilgrims.

The carriage stopped at the foot of the mountain, Zhao Yuanxiang covered his face with a light gauze, and then got out of the carriage with the old lady, and the guards behind immediately dismounted and followed.

Nanny Li stepped forward to support the old lady's arm, glanced up, and said with a smile: "Only the old lady's good health can climb up such a high stone step. Anyone who comes from other people's homes can't climb it." They're little girls."

Zhao Yuanxiang raised his eyes and glanced upwards, there were a few scattered people in front of him, all of them were women, and those in brocade clothes were supported by maidservants.

The old lady took Zhao Yuanxiang's hand and asked with a smile, "Have you been here before?"

Before Zhao Yuanxiang was 14 years old, he lived in Orion's house on the outskirts of the capital, and Shanhua Temple was also on the outskirts of the city, so it was normal for her to come here.

Zhao Yuanxiang shook his head, his eyes were sour, and he forcibly held back: "Uncle and aunt won't let me come out, saying that I'm afraid I will be recognized and cause trouble for my father."

She spoke very softly, coupled with the appearance of forcibly enduring grievances, it is really pitiful.The old lady sighed and squeezed her hand tightly: "It will be fine in the future, come on, let's go up."

Qingsang quickly came to help Zhao Yuanxiang, Zhao Yuanxiang shook his head slightly, and said with a smile: "Don't support me, I must be stronger than you."

How can a girl who grew up in the mountains be afraid of climbing?

They had only climbed up for a short distance, when suddenly a girl's voice came from behind: "The ones in front are Mrs. Zhao and County Lord Jingyun?"

The voice was very familiar, Zhao Yuanxiang and the old lady stopped, looked back, and saw an acquaintance——Ye Yi, the daughter of General Ye's family.

Wasn't she the first girl who laughed out loud after Zhao Yanran made a fool of herself in public?

Zhao Yuanxiang waved to her with a smile, and the old lady also said with a smile: "Miss Ye is a good girl, but she speaks too straightforwardly. If you say something wrong, just pretend you didn't hear it."

Ye Yi lifted the hem of the skirt and ran up quickly, because he was a little tired, his face was flushed, and he looked very delicate.

She took a few breaths before saluting the old lady and Zhao Yuanxiang, and greeted with a smile: "Old lady Zhao, Lord Jingyun County, I didn't expect it to be you, what a coincidence!"

Zhao Yuanxiang smiled and said: "Miss Ye, don't be polite, don't call me the county master, just call me by my name."

Ye Yi was not impolite, nodded and said: "Yuan Xiang, I didn't go to the queen's palace banquet. I heard that you were injured in the palace to save you. Is your arm okay?"

Zhao Yuanxiang couldn't help being slightly moved, this girl who had only met once was the first person to ask about his injuries.
