Chapter 311 It is better to rely on yourself than anyone else

It snowed heavily for two days and two nights.

The ground was covered with a thick layer of whiteness.

Nalan County is mainly coming, will we have to wait for the snow to melt?

If so, wouldn't it be a few days?

Early in the morning, Lin Xueman sat in front of the window, looked at the vast snow outside the window, sighed, and then lowered her head to sew the needlework in her hand. To pass the time, when she was about to go up the mountain, she went to the cloth shop to give Xiao Chengyu and the children After tearing up the fabric, they planned to sew a cloak of the same style as her for each of them, the one with a hat. Unexpectedly, the owner of the tailor shop had never seen this style before, and compared it for a long time. Just cut the fabric.

Lin Xueman stroked the soft fabric in her hand, and a smile appeared on the corner of her mouth. She specially asked the tailor shop owner to cut this piece for her son to be longer, so that she could wear it next year. Children always grow very fast. !

A family of three all wear the same style of cloak, will there be a feeling of parent-child attire? She imagined the scene of Xiao Chengyu and her son wearing the cloak she made, and almost laughed out loud. It is obviously a parent-child attire!I hope the handwork is not too poor. She will check the stitches inside and out every time she sews to see if the stitches are crooked. The fabric and the fur used as the lining are of the best quality. If the stitches are crooked, it would be too shameful!

Just as I was thinking, someone knocked on the door.

She hurriedly put down the needle and thread in her hand, opened the door, and it turned out to be the Hollow Master of Baohua Temple who was in charge of receiving pilgrims.

"Benefactor." When Master Hollow saw her, he clasped his hands together and said, "Benefactor, this is the first snow this winter. The poor monk went to the plum forest early in the morning to collect the snow water. It will be boiled into plum blossom tea. Move to the tea room to drink tea!"

"Thank you, Master." Lin Xueman smiled at her, and followed him out of the wing.

"The poor monk should thank the benefactor for donating so much money for sesame oil!" Master Hollow said as he walked, "Baohua Temple's simple tea and light food and a shabby room can't be repaid. I'm afraid that only this plum blossom tea can enter the benefactor's possession." eye!"

Lin Xueman smiled, if she didn't donate some sesame oil money, how could she live in grandiosely and wait for Princess Nalan....

The snow has stopped, and the monks in the temple are sweeping the snow in the yard in an orderly manner.The two walked through the empty yard of the back hall one by one and entered the tea room. As soon as they entered the door, they could smell a faint fragrance.

The tea room was very warm, and the brazier inside was burning brightly.

On the window sill, a red plum in full bloom was placed in an antique vase.Crystal clear water droplets are still swaying on the delicate petals, and you want to drop it!

"Benefactor, please sit down!" Master Hollow looked at her serenely, and poured her a cup of tea, "Please benefactor, please try the first plum blossom tea after snow this year. This tea from our Baohua Temple is loved by Princess Nalan." Drink, that's why it is famous in the capital!"

"Thank you, master!" Lin Xueman smiled.After receiving it, I saw light red tea in a white teacup.There were one or two petals floating on it, and after taking a sip, it was indeed very fragrant, leaving a lingering fragrance on my teeth.

At this time, there were several rapid knocks on the door.

A young monk with a delicate face hurried in and reported: "Master, there is a report from the palace. It is said that the chief of Nalan County is coming to worship the Buddha and offer incense. He is already on his way. Let Baohua Temple get ready quickly!"

Abbot Hollow frowned slightly. In the past, he had been notified in advance. Why was it so sudden today?

He hurriedly clasped his hands together and said to Lin Xueman: "Benefactor, I'm sorry, please go back to your room to rest and don't move around, so as not to disturb Princess Nalan's holy car. Another day, the poor monk will invite the benefactor to come and taste the wine." Tea!" As he said, he followed the little monk and walked out quickly.

She is coming!

Lin Xueman followed suit.

Master Hollow had already brought everyone to the main hall to greet him. There were only a few pilgrims in the main hall. Under the guidance of a few guards, they either went down the mountain or went back to their rooms to avoid the royal guard of honor. When they saw Lin Xueman, they stepped forward and said : "Madam, please go back to the room and avoid it for a while, idlers are not allowed to stay here."

It really is royal style!

Lin Xueman had no choice but to go back to the wing room with a few other pilgrims who lived in the back hall, but saw Qin Sanlang anxiously walking up and down at her door, she was overjoyed, so she rushed forward and asked, "Sanlang, How did you come?"

"Where did you go? I've been waiting here for a long time!" Qin Sanlang frowned.

The two entered the wing room.

"I was delayed for a while by Abbot Hollow to taste tea. I heard that Princess Nalan is here?" Lin Xueman asked hastily.

"Well, that's exactly why I came to you." Qin Sanlang said in a deep voice, "This time Concubine Liu accompanied Princess Nalan to come. Concubine Liu has a strict order. It's a time of war, so you must protect Princess Nalan well. No one should disturb Princess Nalan's quietness, the reason why she suddenly came to Baohua Temple this time is to ensure the safety of Princess Nalan, so I'm afraid you won't be able to see Princess Nalan!"

"Why?" Lin Xueman was puzzled, "I want to ask Princess Nalan, and I don't want to harm her. You just need to send a message and let me meet her!"

"It is precisely because of this that I don't let you go to see Princess Nalan, but to wait patiently and don't act rashly until I have a chance to talk to Princess Nalan." Qin Sanlang looked at her, and then Said, "To tell you the truth, I am the one responsible for the safety of the princess this time, so I don't want to cause any unpleasantness!"

"You are afraid that I will hurt you, aren't you?" Lin Xueman's heart sank, and she looked at Qin Sanlang suspiciously. Is this person still the childhood sweetheart from before?How could such a small matter become pushy?

"That's not true, it's just that it's my first time on this job, so I'm extra cautious." Qin Sanlang said in a low voice, "If Concubine Liu Gui doesn't follow, I can find a way to introduce you, but now that she's here, I don't We can’t speak, let’s find another way!”

"I understand, I'll figure it out myself!" Lin Xueman said blankly, "Go and do your work! I won't cause you any trouble!"

"Then you stay here at ease, don't go out, other pilgrims can move around after Princess Nalan burns incense." Qin Sanlang walked a few steps, then turned back and instructed.

"Understood!" Lin Xueman replied lukewarmly.

Qin Sanlang hurried out.

Lin Xueman sat in the room, getting angrier as she thought about it.In this world besides yourself, who else can you rely on?

It is better to rely on yourself than anyone else!

She thought for a while, picked up a porcelain bottle of water on the table, walked out the door, saw a small corner door in the corner of the yard, opened the door, and walked out.

You can vaguely hear the melodious drumming and murmuring chanting in the front hall.

Not far away, there is indeed a plum forest.

The plum blossoms on the branches are in full bloom in clusters, and they are fiery red.The top is covered with white snow, which is very beautiful!

She walked over with the bottle in her arms, broke off a plum branch, and gently stroked the snow on the petals into the bottle. This ancient air is so good!The snow is really white and white, without a trace of impurities.Really crystal clear!

There is wind blowing.

A burst of snow was blown up from the tree, covering her all over, and some even got into her neck. It was icy cold, and she couldn't help shivering.

The snow on the ground was not cleaned by anyone, and it creaked when stepped on it.With bursts of chills, only drilled the soles of the feet.While stomping her feet, she shuttled under the tree to collect the snowflakes on the petals, leaving strings of shallow footprints on the snow.

It's really cold today!

"Ma'am, what is this?" Xu Quanfu slept in the house for a whole day, and just walked to the yard to see if the snow had stopped, when he saw Lin Xueman walking in from the outside with a bottle in his face flushed from the cold.He asked suspiciously, "Where did you go?"

"Go to that Merlin outside. Collect some snowflakes from the petals." Lin Xueman said, stomping the snowflakes stuck to her feet.

"Then why didn't you call me?" Xu Quanfu said, "Madam, do you want to use these snowflakes to make tea? I heard that the tea made from the snow on the petals is very delicious!"

"How can you do these things!" Lin Xueman smiled and said, "I want to make tea, but not for me to drink, I want to make it for Princess Nalan to drink!"

"Then how can I help?" Xu Quanfu suddenly realized.

"No, just take care of yourself, that's fine!" Lin Xueman carried the bottle into the tea room in the apse, and saw Master Kong Xin sitting on the couch with his eyes closed, and a young monk beside him was carefully cleaning the tea set.

"Master!" Lin Xueman walked over, gently put the bottle in his hand on the table, and said, "Just now I heard that someone came from the palace, and I have nothing to do, so I specially went to pick some petal snow..."

The hollow master's eyelids moved, but he didn't make a sound.

"Thank you, benefactor!" The little monk heard the words, his eyes lit up, he quickly took it, smelled it, and said with a smile, "It really is the snow on the petals." Now it's over, he doesn't need to go to the plum forest to pick snow.

How patient it is to pick such a bottle of snowflakes!

"The benefactor wants to serve tea?" Master Hollow asked suddenly.

"Exactly!" Lin Xueman felt a little embarrassed when he was suddenly seen through.

The little monk looked at her in bewilderment.

"Bixian, let's make tea! I'll lead her to deliver this plum blossom tea to the princess later!" Master Hollow said slowly, and then began to close his eyes and meditate.

"Yes!" The little monk replied respectfully.

The noon sun is still faint, making people feel no warmth at all.

Instead, I felt a bone-chilling chill.

From the tea room in the apse to the embroidered pavilion where Princess Nalan stayed, there was a distance of several hundred meters, but there were layers of guards guarding it, so not even a fly could fly in.

Lin Xueman walked cautiously behind Bixian with a cup of tea, and couldn't help but feel a little excited. If she could see Princess Nalan, then she would have a little more hope to see her child.

When they arrived at the gate of the Xiu Pavilion, the guards at the gate stopped them expressionlessly: "Who are you here for?"

"The poor monk was ordered by the abbot to deliver plum blossom tea after the snow." Bixian stepped forward and said with clasped hands.

"Wait a minute!" The guard turned around and entered the embroidery pavilion, and after a while, he came out again, his expression stretched a lot, he walked up to Lin Xueman, and said kindly, "Go in!"

Lin Xueman was overjoyed, and followed the guard into the room.

After crossing two thresholds, I heard bursts of piano sound coming from the room. The sound of the piano sounded very cheerful.

At the door, two maids greeted him hurriedly.

"Stay!" One of them reached out to take the tea in Lin Xueman's hand.

Lin Xueman's hands trembled, and the teapot fell to the ground and shattered.

"Ah..." Everyone suddenly turned pale with shock.

The sound of the piano in the room stopped.

"What's the matter?" A pink figure came out gracefully.

"Damn it, you disturbed the princess!" The maid said tremblingly, pointing at Lin Xueman, and said in a trembling voice, "It was her, she knocked over the teapot on purpose!" (To be continued.
