After rebirth, the daughter of the marquisate went crazy

Zhao Qianxue returned to her yard and started dressing up.

In the front yard, Minister Zhao was not at home, but was accompanied by Master Zhao and Zhao Qianxue's biological brother Zhao Tianyou.

Uncle Zhao smiled and said, "Qianxue is taking too long. She's kept His Highness waiting. Someone, go and urge the young lady."

Shen Mingxiu smiled warmly, "This palace came unexpectedly, Master, there is no need to rush the young lady."

Zhao Tianyou smiled and said, "Your Highness is so forgiving. It is my blessing."

"A girl should take her time with her makeup, there's no rush."

About half an hour later, Zhao Qianxue finally arrived.

She was wearing a purple gauze blouse embroidered with golden peonies, and a crabapple-colored crescent-shaped phoenix-tail skirt that fell to the ground. She had exquisite makeup and her black hair was like clouds.

Seeing Shen Mingxiu, her face flushed and her voice was gentle, "I'm sorry to have kept Your Highness waiting."

Shen Mingxiu's smile didn't reach his eyes. "To see Miss Zhao so graceful, waiting another hour wouldn't be too long."

Zhao Qianxue glanced at Shen Mingxiu shyly and affectionately, then quickly looked away, her voice even softer than water, "Your Highness, thank you for your kind words."

Shen Mingxiu stood up and said with a smile, "Since Miss Zhao is ready, let's set off."

Master Zhao and Zhao Tianyou escorted the two men out of the Zhao Mansion's gate. Seeing the carriage going away, Master Zhao stroked his beard and nodded with satisfaction.

"Although it's an arranged marriage, it's our blessing that His Highness the Fourth Prince values ​​Qianxue so much."

Zhao Tianyou agreed, "Yes, my little sister is still very competitive."

Outside the city, Nanhua Temple.

The abbot of Nanhua Temple had been waiting outside the temple for a long time. Seeing the carriage from the Prince of Chu's Palace slowly approaching, the abbot hurriedly took the monks to greet them.

"Amitabha, Your Highness the King of Chu, I am honored to be here."

Shen Yanli placed the tablet of the Empress Dowager in Nanhua Temple and lit the longevity lamp. If he was in Kyoto, he would come here every three months to burn incense for the Empress Dowager. A few years ago, when he was marching and fighting outside, people from the Prince's Mansion also came to burn incense on his behalf.

Master Lekong, the abbot of Nanhua Temple, was quite familiar with Shen Yanli. When Shen Yanli came to Nanhua Temple, he would sometimes listen to Master Lekong's lectures, or they would play a game of mahjong. Although he did not believe in Buddhism, listening to the master's lectures would calm him down.

When the curtain was opened, a beautiful lady came out of the carriage.

Master Liaokong was stunned for a moment, then quickly recognized who it was. "Amitabha, Miss Ye, long time no see. How are you?"

Ye Qingyu smiled gently, "Master, you have a good memory."

Although she had come to burn incense twice, both times she came with the Ye family and had never had face-to-face dealings with the host, so how could he recognize her?

At this time, Shen Yanli had already gotten off the carriage. The carriages in the Prince of Chu's Palace were specially made to facilitate Shen Yanli's wheelchair being pushed down from the back of the carriage.

"Master Liaokong."

"Your Highness, Prince of Chu," Master Liaokong said with compassion, "Your Highness seems to be much better off after not seeing you for a few months."

Shen Yanli curled his lips slightly, "Master still has such a good eye."

Master Liaokong smiled and nodded, "Your Highness, Miss Ye, please."

Nanhua Temple is not small. Although it is not the national temple of the Daqing Dynasty, it occupies the entire mountain.

Ye Qingyu and Shen Yanli first went to burn incense to the Queen.

Ye Qingyu knelt devoutly on the cushion, looking up at the tablet of the Empress, in front of which were lit eternal lamps.

She couldn't help but pray in her heart, hoping that the Queen would bless the King of Chu.

Looking at the eternal lamp in front of her, Ye Qingyu remembered the eternal lamp she had offered in Nanhua Temple for the unborn child in her previous life. She should go and see it.

Master Liaokong said, "Lunch is not ready yet, but the pomegranate flowers in the back mountain are blooming. Your Highness can take Miss Ye to enjoy them."

Shen Yanli nodded, "Qingqing, do you want to go enjoy the flowers?"

Ye Qingyu naturally wanted to go and see it. "Of course, I heard there's a pomegranate tree in the back mountain of Nanhua Temple. Every May, the pomegranate flowers bloom like fire, which is very beautiful. This time I came just in time, so of course I have to go and enjoy it."

Shen Yanli looked at her with tender eyes, "Okay, Lin Feng, let's go to the back mountain."

Although it was a mountain road, fortunately Nanhua Temple had built a flat path, so Shen Yanli's wheelchair could reach the pomegranate forest unimpeded.

The rich fragrance of pomegranates can be smelled from afar. From a distance, countless fiery red flowers are blooming among the green bushes.

It was also the first time for Ye Qingyu to see a field of pomegranate flowers, and she was indescribably happy.

"After the light rain, the lotus leaves turn over, and the pomegranate flowers are about to bloom." (Su Shi - "Ruan Lang Gui")

"The ancients really couldn't compare to me. It really blooms like fire and smoke." Ye Qingyu said with emotion.

Seeing that Ye Qingyu really liked it, Shen Yanli said, "If Qingqing likes it, you can plant a patch in the garden of Prince Chu's mansion."

Ye Qingyu smiled, "Although I like it, it doesn't have to be like this. Every year at this time, Your Highness can just accompany me to Nanhua Temple to appreciate it."

Shen Yanli nodded, "Okay, from now on we will come here to enjoy the flowers at this time every year."

There is a pavilion in the back hills, and Mo Shu has prepared some refreshments. "Miss, Your Highness, please move to the pavilion and have some snacks."

The pavilion is built on a small hill. Looking out, you can see fields of pomegranate flowers, and the gentle breeze brings the rich fragrance of flowers.

The two of them were enjoying the scenery and drinking tea in the pavilion. A young monk from the temple came to tell them that lunch was ready, and then they went back.

After lunch, Shen Yanli asked Ye Qingyu to go to the side room to rest for a while, as he was going to listen to Master Kong’s lecture.

Ye Qingyu rested for a while, then went to the hall where she lit the eternal lamp, washed her hands and burned incense.

She had just walked out of the hall and had not gone far when she heard someone calling her.

"Ms. Ye, please stay."

Ye Qingyu frowned slightly. Even though she didn't turn around, she could tell who the person was.

Ye Qingyu turned around and saluted indifferently, "Your Highness greets His Royal Highness the Fourth Prince."

Shen Mingxiu's smile was as gentle as a spring breeze. "I didn't expect to see Miss Ye here. What a fate. Miss Ye, did you come to Nanhua Temple to burn incense?"

Ye Qingyu said, "Your Highness the King of Chu and I have come here to burn incense and take a stroll."

Ye Qingyu's eyes were filled with impatience. "Why is the Fourth Prince here?"

Shen Mingxiu is not a Buddhist.

Shen Mingxiu's expression remained warm. "I heard that the pomegranate flowers at Nanhua Temple have bloomed, so I thought I'd come and see them. Every year at this time, the pomegranate flowers on the hill behind Nanhua Temple are in full bloom, like a blaze of fire. Miss Ye, have you been there?"

Ye Qingyu nodded, "This servant went with His Majesty the Prince of Chu to take a look."

After hearing her answer, Shen Mingxiu's eyes flashed with a dark light, "That's good."

"Since there is nothing else, I will take my leave."

Ye Qingyu didn't want to be alone with this person at all. She couldn't suppress the hatred surging in her heart. She was afraid that she would lose control and chop this enemy with a knife.

Seeing Ye Qingyu turn around and try to leave, Shen Mingxiu couldn't let her go like that. He quickly stopped her, "Miss Ye, I called you because I have something to tell you."

Ye Qingyu raised her eyebrows. She didn’t think there was anything she could say to him given her current status.
