Destroyed outside, gold and jade inside

Chapter 142 Unexpected Stubbornness

A night without dreams.

After the morning court the next day, Fang Yan returned to the palace early in the morning, which is really rare.He is the regent, the Holy One is young, and he takes care of all the important affairs of the court.People in the house are not used to being so leisurely today.

And there is another distinguished guest coming back with him!
The distinguished guest was not very old, but he was quite imposing, he was surrounded by people to serve him, and there were countless hidden guards following behind him.

"Uncle, where is Mrs. Shen?" The little emperor arrived at Prince Qi's mansion, took a look at the scenery of the mansion, and couldn't help asking with a smile.

King Qi shook his immature shoulders, "Someone has already asked for it."

The little emperor nodded happily, "I don't know what delicacies I can taste today? How can Mrs. Shen know how to cook so many delicious foods?"

King Qi shook his head helplessly, no matter how precocious the Holy Majesty is, he can't get rid of the child's heart.

When Shen Xinniang was invited, the little emperor immediately threw down the jade pot he was playing with, and with a sense of ease that he had never felt in the palace, he jumped to her side and grabbed the corners of her clothes with both hands, "Miss Shen, I'm coming to see you!"

Shen Xinniang knelt down to salute.

The little emperor quickly waved his hands, "I came out in a low-clothes suit, and made a special trip to see you, so please don't salute Mrs. Shen!"

Shen Xinniang nodded slightly, but did not make a sound.

"In the palace, Madam Shen was wronged again." The little emperor lowered his head a little disappointed, and said in a low voice, "I didn't do what I promised you last time."

Shen Xinniang shook her head slowly, "There is no rush, the Holy Majesty is young now, it is impossible to say that he will grow up, he will grow up all at once."

"Miss Shen is not disappointed in me?" The little emperor raised his head and looked at her eagerly.

Shen Xinniang slowly shook her head, "How could it be?"

"Then are you angry? Are you angry with the Empress Dowager? Are you angry with that court lady? Also," the little emperor paused, "Are you angry with me?"

Shen Xinniang shook her head, "I'm not angry."

"Why?" The little emperor blinked.

"It's nothing, it's worth getting angry." Shen Xinniang said slowly, "She wants my life, I know it, it's not worth getting angry about."

The little emperor nodded half-understood, "It's good that you don't get angry, I just came to see you and want to make you happy. It's like the last time I was sick and you entered the palace to see me!"

Shen Xinniang slightly blessed her body, "Thank you, Your Majesty, for your concern!"

The little emperor shook his head in disapproval, "Ms. Shen is like this, isn't she estranged from me?"

Shen Xinniang looked down at him.

The little emperor grinned like a mouse that stole honey, "If you really want to thank me, can you reward me with a delicious meal?"

Shen Xinniang nodded slowly, "It should be so."

"It's still early to cook, and I heard that Shen Xiniang is very good at chess, why don't you play a game with me, so that I can also appreciate the lady's chess skills?" The little emperor said with a smile.

Shen Xinniang glanced at Fang Yan, lowered her eyes and said: "Although it's early, it's just right to have a snack. Why don't you go and make snacks and refreshments for your Majesty?"

The little emperor was so coaxing, he clapped his hands and smiled immediately, "Well, well, it's so good!"

Shen Xinniang exited the hall.

Fang Yan chuckled helplessly behind her. The momentum of her chess play was really not suitable for playing against the Tong Sheng.

As soon as Shen Xinniang came to the small kitchen in Fang Yan's courtyard, Jin Xiang hurried to find her.

"Lady, Lady Gongsun is here!" Jin Xiang said urgently.

Shen Xinniang stopped what she was doing, "Why don't you come in?"

"Miss Gongsun said that it is not easy to make an appointment with Master Ziyang alone. Master Ziyang is very busy on weekdays. She didn't waste much time and waited for the lady in the carriage." Jin Xiang explained.

Shen Xinniang heard the words and looked in the direction of the hall.

"If the lady rejects Mrs. Gongsun," Dan Xin said, "would she think it was the lady who didn't want to go?"

Jin Xiang glanced at Dan Xin, moved her mouth and did not speak.On the one hand, it was the holy majesty who came out of the palace to meet her, and on the other hand, he was kindly inviting and making an appointment with Mrs. Gongsun, the real Ziyang.Should I go or stay?

"Why don't you tell Mrs. Gongsun that the Holy Majesty is at the mansion, and it is inconvenient for you to go there today, so I will make an appointment for another day. It will save Mrs. Gongsun's misunderstanding?" Dan Xin said with a frown.

"Your Majesty left the palace in a low-clothes, so it's inconvenient for people to know?" Jin Xiang shook his head and objected.

"Then..." Dan Xin frowned, looking at Shen Xinniang.

Shen Xinniang hesitated for a moment, but put down the objects in her hands, and walked towards the hall.

"Wife is this?" Jin Xiang asked.

Dan Xin tugged her, "Hurry up and follow!"

The two quickly followed Shen Xinniang, saw Shen Xinniang entered the hall empty-handed, and said to the Holy Majesty: "I tell the Holy Majesty, I have to go out today, so it is inconvenient to make snacks for the Holy Majesty."

The little emperor was stunned holding the chess piece, "Huh? Where is Mrs. Shen going?"

Shen Xinniang lowered her eyes and hesitated for a moment, then said slowly: "Go to Xuanyu Temple with Mrs. Gongsun."

"I made a special trip out of the palace to visit my wife, Xuanyu Temple, can't I go another day?" The little emperor's voice was a little disappointed.

Shen Xiniang couldn't restrain her eagerness in her heart.

She really wants to know the answer, and really wants to know whether the mysterious Ziyang real person who was passed on from Xuanyu Temple can help her get back to the past?Don't say that if you miss today's opportunity, Mrs. Gongsun may have a misunderstanding and it will be difficult to make an appointment next time.Even if she could wait until the next time, how could she wait for the eagerness in her heart?
"My lord, this concubine is planning to go today." Shen Xinniang said, her tone was slow but firm.

The little emperor hesitated for a moment, threw down the chess pieces, jumped off the couch, and reached out to grab Shen Xinniang's clothes, "Is it the newly built Xuanyu Temple in the south of the city? It's just right, I've heard of it, so I'll go with Shen Niangzi!"

Fang Yan got up immediately, "Your Majesty, Xuanyu Temple is full of incense, and there are many and mixed people. It is very inconvenient to leave suddenly."

"I want to be with Mrs. Shen." The little emperor held onto the corner of Shen Xiniang's clothes and did not let go.

Fang Yan's eyes fell on Shen Xinniang, as if waiting for her to say no.

If she didn't leave, the little emperor would naturally not make a fuss about going.

But Shen Xinniang, who usually understands people's hearts, refuses to speak today, as stubborn as a little emperor.

"Xin'er..." Fang Yan spoke slowly.

"Ms. Gongsun's frame is waiting outside." Shen Xiniang said.

"No, make another date with her?" Fang Yan asked in a deep voice.

Shen Xinniang glanced at him, deep in her dark eyes was the longing and eagerness that others could not understand.

But the little emperor was holding onto the corner of Shen Xiniang's clothes and refused to let go.It's rare to go out of the palace for a trip, and go back after having fun?

The three of them stalemate, and there was a moment of silence in the hall.

Both Shen Xinniang and the little emperor are equally stubborn.

Only Fang Yan sighed lightly, and took the lead to compromise: "The Holy Majesty must not wander around, and I will accompany the Holy Majesty at any time."

The little emperor nodded repeatedly, "Don't worry, uncle, I won't run around!" The voice was cheerful and joyful, like a bird escaping from a cage.

Fang Yan shook his head helplessly and asked someone to prepare the frame.

When Mrs. Gongsun was about to ask someone to ask again, she saw a large carriage coming out of the side door of the palace.

"Let Mrs. Shen come and sit..." Before her words fell, the carriage left the gate of the palace, but it was a very spacious four-horse carriage of the prince's specifications.

Gongsun Lan clicked her tongue.

The little girl beside him asked: "Should you invite Mrs. Shen to come and sit?"

Gongsun Lan stretched out her hand and flicked the little girl's forehead, "You are stupid, it's not bad if we are invited to sit in such a luxurious carriage! Let's invite him, can he come?"

The little maid smiled and stuck out her tongue.

Gongsun Lan squinted her eyes and said with emotion: "I heard that she is just a concubine of the palace, but now it seems that it is not the case at all! How can the concubine of the palace use the carriage of Prince Qi when traveling? The prince is quite favored?"

The large carriage of the Wangfu stopped for a moment next to the carriage of Gongsun's house. The two coachmen greeted each other, and the carriage started to move again.

Shen Xinniang did not invite Mrs. Gongsun to ride with her.

"It's really icy and cold! Why don't you invite me to take a ride in such a big carriage?" Gongsun Lan said with a smile while sitting in the swaying carriage.

She didn't know the reason until the carriage stopped outside Xuanyu Temple in the south of the city.

It turned out that not only Shen Xinniang was sitting in the wide frame, but even King Qi was there.

Seeing Prince Qi getting out of the carriage, when Gongsun Lan was about to step forward to salute, she saw King Qi turn around and stretch out her hand to help another person get off the carriage.

There are not many people in this world who can make Prince Qi reach out to help him.

Seeing that immature figure with Xiao Xiaoman's innocent face, Gongsun Lan's jaw almost dropped in shock.

"Holy Saint..." She stepped forward and blessed herself quickly.

Jin Xiang took a wrong step and stood beside her, and quickly supported her.

The little emperor shook his head and said with a smile: "Small clothes, outside, don't need to be polite!"

Gongsun Lan nodded, and looked at Shen Xiniang who was supported by King Qi from the carriage frame in surprise.

Can let Prince Qi personally support each other, and ride with the emperor.This Mrs. Shen is really extraordinary!It seems that the person who is close to me is really extraordinary!She pursed her lips and smiled, "Miss Shen!"

Shen Xinniang nodded at her, "Thank you, Mrs. Gongsun, for inviting me."

"No thanks, no thanks! You're doing me a favor by coming! I don't know if Master Ziyang can heal me!" Gongsun Lan said with a smile.

"Heal what?" the little emperor asked, "Is there something wrong with Mrs. Shen?"

Hearing this, Fang Yan frowned slightly and looked at Shen Xinniang.

Shen Xinniang lowered her eyes, and slowly replied: "Come and see the eyes, maybe it can be healed."

Hearing this, the little emperor nodded repeatedly, "Although Mrs. Shen's eyes are black and bright, she is also pretty, but the lady said that if black and white are distinct, she will only be more beautiful. Then I will wait to see her eyes, which are more beautiful if they are black and white!"

Shen Xinniang nodded slowly, and when she raised her eyes, she happened to meet Fang Yan's deep gaze.

Shen Xinniang nodded slightly at him, Fang Yan moved her lips, but finally did not make a sound.Finally understand why she must come today, knowing that the little emperor insists on relying on her and refuses to compromise.

Ziyang Zhenren was passed on as a miracle.The ten-mile long street in Nanshi has grown from a small number at the beginning to a rush to buy it now.It is not so much the credit of the Xuanmiao Temple, but the credit of inviting Master Ziyang to come here to see Fengshui.

It was because he listened to the advice of his staff and set aside land for the Xuanmiao Temple near Nanshi, and allowed the Xuanmiao Temple to expand, that it was effective.

Why did she come to see Master Ziyang, and what diseases did she have that needed to be treated? He couldn't be more clear.

It would be deceiving to have no expectations in your heart, but in addition to the expectations, there are some tensions and apprehensions that cannot be ignored.She shouldn't be more relaxed than him, right?

But nothing could be seen on her face, she was still as plain as before.As if she really just came to see if the eyes could be healed.
