Foster son and husband

Chapter 203 Camping
Xu Junying was overjoyed, his heart was beating wildly - he had dreamed of this kindness and consideration, but he had never been able to ask for it, and suddenly it fell from the sky, which stunned him!

Chang Lehou came up from behind, saw him staring blankly with a kerchief, and joked, "What? Which lady gave it to you?"

Xu Junying turned around, and the two of them laughed tacitly. The joke was caused by Ning Yuanhou. When he took off his coat and put it back in his wife's car, his wife handed him an embroidered handkerchief to wipe his sweat. Between jade belts, my colleagues are amused:
"Where did you find the champagne? Tell us to pick one up too!"

Ning Yuanhou laughed: "I didn't pick it up, Mrs. Ning Yuanhou and the second lady of the Gan family gave it to me!"

Everyone came out of the army, and they joked casually, as long as it wasn't too much, and it was okay to joke, and someone got a handkerchief handed over by a family member from the car, and everyone didn't say it was from the wife, but just said which lady it was Rewarded.

Xu Junying just smiled and watched them amused, but she didn't expect to get that kind of honor. Meimei's carriage walked ahead, closely following Mrs. Dingguo's carriage, and approached Feng's chariot. She is still very indifferent to herself and wants to get her handkerchief I'm afraid it will be difficult.On the uphill section, the newly widened road was a bit difficult to navigate, and the carriage was swaying. I was worried that Meimei had never traveled such a long distance, so I asked from time to time, and walked with me. I planned to go over the mountain and ask the emperor to see if I could Speed ​​up the trip.Getting this handkerchief by accident, Xu Junying was overjoyed, but she didn't show it on her face, she just wiped off the sweat lightly, carefully tied the handkerchief embroidered with plum blossoms on the jade belt around her waist, and planned with Chang Lehou The horse went forward.

Finally at the resting place, Meimei got out of the car and saw Xu Junying hurrying over, and said to her: "Your Majesty divides into three yards to rest, you and Mrs. Dingguogong and Mrs. Changlehou...don't worry, Ministry of Rites The people here have already made preparations. The town is very quiet, and all the courtyards are very clean and refreshing. After lunch, take a good rest and wait for the sun to go down. On the night road, it should be in the middle of the night, after a short rest, incense will be offered, and it will take a whole day after all the work..."

While talking, someone shouted not far away: "Marquis Xu?"

Meimei saw a man who looked like a civil servant looking around, so she said, "Someone is looking for you, go and do it, I will take care of myself!"

Xu Junying looked at her, hesitated to speak, and finally nodded and walked away.

Sure enough, as Xu Junying said, after dinner, she hurried on the road at dusk. Countless torches lit up the night sky. She didn't know how other people would travel outside. A unique wilderness night scene.

The mountain breeze is blowing, and the coolness is refreshing. After all, it is in the wild, and the temperature difference between day and night is really too big.A round of bright moon hangs in the sky, and the team walks on the hillside. At the foot of the slope is a quietly flowing river. The bright moon and the torches are reflected in the river at the same time. Remembering that I was already in the ancient times, I couldn't help laughing. How can I tell my relatives and friends about such a beautiful place and beautiful night?
Xu Junying came again unexpectedly, and sent a few bright red bayberry fruits picked from the mountain: "Eating this fruit will not spoil your stomach. Eat two to refresh your mind. It will be cold at night. Don't fall asleep, it will be there in a while!"

Cuixi took Yangmei, Cui Lian hurriedly took out Xu Junying's robe, but looked at Meimei and said softly: "It's windy outside, give the clothes to Lord Hou?"

Meimei nodded, Cui Lian moved to the car door and handed out the robe: "Young Madam said it's cold outside, please put on your clothes!"

Xu Junying said: "Mrs. Xie is concerned!"

Meimei rolled her eyes, stretched out her hand to pinch Cui Lian.

After walking for another hour, they finally arrived at the destination. When the carriage stopped, Meimei let out a sigh of relief: After all, it is not as comfortable as a car, and it is not an asphalt road. Even with several layers of cushions, it is still a little shaking gosh.

Stepping up the stone steps to the monastery, she saw Lin Runan, walking beside the queen, about ten steps away, the queen saw that she was in good spirits, looked back, met her eyes, nodded with a smile, and followed the emperor .

Mrs. Dingguo laughed from the side: "It's really embarrassing for the empress, walking such a long way, but fortunately the emperor is considerate and taught me to put a soft couch on the phoenix chariot, otherwise I will be exhausted!"

It turned out that, lying on the car, no matter how it shakes, it won't be too uncomfortable.

Mrs. Changle Hou, Mrs. Changxing Hou and Mrs. Ning Yuanhou rushed over. Everyone greeted each other and climbed up the stone steps together with smiles.

The mountain temple is quiet and cold, the Buddhist gate is clean, and no noise is allowed. The imperial forest army and dragon riders are stationed outside the temple, and most of the imperial guards are only around the mountain gate. Except for the guards who may secretly escort, there are only ten personal guards surrounding the emperor and queen. Entering the temple, the civil and military officials were left at the second gate, and their own monks arranged their whereabouts. The abbot and the abbot welcomed the holy driver, respectfully led the emperor around the main hall, and first went to the Jingya Temple to rest. It was already the second watch , I can still rest for a few hours, and at five o'clock, I will bathe and burn incense, burn incense in the main hall, and open the altar to worship the Buddha.

The twelve wives followed the queen and were led to the inner courtyard together, and entered another side courtyard, where they shared a room and settled down in six meditation rooms.

Meimei was with Mrs. Dingguo, she didn't understand anything, she just followed Mrs. Dingguo, opened her eyes wide, and worked hard to secretly learn other people's rules and movements.She did not know anything about pilgrimage to the Buddha, but she had entered temples a few times in her previous life. It was just for viewing and sightseeing, and she had never really worshiped the Buddha. Once she went to a temple in Guangdong, and saw a monk wearing a watch and playing with a mobile phone, smiling. Leaning on the side of the release pool and chatting with the girls, it opened the eyes of a few of their schoolgirls, secretly took pictures with their mobile phones, and was chased by the monk around the temple.

The monks in the Pufa Temple are serious and [-]% Buddhist scholars. Not to mention the Buddhist altar surrounded by cigarettes and fluttering prayer flags, the great master wearing a dazzling cassock and sitting upright with his eyes closed sits on a futon and is neatly arranged. , the dignified and solemn face, the big and small monks with downcast eyes, even the little novice outside the temple who is serious about sweeping the floor, are enough to convince Meimei that this is the real pure land of Buddhism!
Bustling and going round and round, under the guidance of the monks, Meimei followed Mrs. Dingguo and the queen, and was busy from the fifth watch until the afternoon before everything was over. In addition to hearing that Pufa Temple "be promoted to be an imperial temple from now on", Meimei has no intention of listening to anything else.

After returning to the Zen room to rest for a while, he was invited out again. It turned out that the emperor had gone somewhere, and the married woman had the opportunity to have a vegetarian meal with the queen.

After the ranking was arranged, Meimei still couldn't get close to Lin Runan, separated by the two dukes and wives, she glanced at Lin Runan, then turned her head away, Lin Runan lowered her eyes, but the queen smiled, as if she wanted to see what they were doing trick.

Leaving the monastery the next day, sitting in the car, even after changing clothes, she still felt the smell of incense coming from her body. Fortunately, the smell of incense was not unpleasant, so Meimei ignored it.

The return journey is no better than the time when we came. When we come, we must catch incense on the [-]th auspicious time. The return journey will be much more carefree. The weather is fine and the sun is shining brightly. You can see the beautiful mountains and rivers in the distance, and the enchanting vegetation in the distance. The scenery is so charming. The empress and his courtiers were full of sighs. Halfway through the journey, the emperor got up and decided not to stay in the original palace. He ordered to camp on the spot, play in the wild for half a day, light a bonfire at night, and have a feast of wild game. At dawn on the second day, I drove back to the city again.

This Meimei loves the bonfire dinner the most. Xu Junying led her carriage to a place under the shade of a tree and stopped, helped her off the carriage, and when she told her the news, she was extremely happy and said repeatedly: "It's so fun. Wild game feast? Where did the wild game come from? Someone went hunting, right? Let me go together, okay?"

Xu Junying looked at her with a smile: "If I take you there, I'm afraid I won't even be able to kill a hare!"

"No way?"

Meimei touched the jewelry hairpin on her head, rattled her steps, then looked down at the clothes on her body, which were full of silk and satin, and worn with palace sash, and hurriedly said: "I have brought several sets of clothes, if you want me to go, just change into a light one. Some, guaranteed to run fast!"

How could Xu Junying have the heart to refuse her?He only said one sentence: "Go change your clothes, I'll wait for you!"

Meimei quickly climbed back into the carriage again, lowered the door curtain, and with the help of Cuixi and Cui Lian, she redressed herself, removed all the jewelry that was in the way on her head, decorated it with ribbons and pearls, and put on a strong double snail. A bun, with strands of hair hanging down each cheek, intertwined with silver threads, because I went hunting in the mountains and was afraid of the prey, so I specially changed into a light blue moiré tight-fitting narrow-sleeved dress, with a green ribbon lightly tied around the waist , the wide piping skirt just hangs down to the bare feet, in order to prevent the rain, Cui Lian brought deerskin boots, which are just in use at this time, Meimei is neatly dressed and relaxed, she jumped off the carriage to scare Xu Junying After a jump, he looked around and said softly:

"Why is this so? What if you fall down and get hurt?"

What a hypocrite, he is obviously afraid that people will see his wife who made fun of him behave badly!
Meimei was in a very good mood, and smiled: "Don't worry, I'll jump when I see it. No one will see it, so let's go!"

As he spoke, he walked briskly and ran towards the crowded place: "Ask Mrs. Dingguo if she is going?"

Xu Junying hurriedly held her back: "Wait...listen to me!"

Meimei stopped: "Speak, I'm listening!"

Xu Junying grabbed her other hand, held it tightly in her palm, looked into her eyes and said, "Meimei, you are dressed in such a simple and elegant way, but you really look good!"

Meimei cut her eyes, turned her eyes away, Xu Junying couldn't help laughing, and said: "There will be many people going up the mountain, and the women's relatives, like Mrs. Changle Hou, are skilled. In the past, when they went out hunting, they would wait for you guys." Go, I didn't expect the emperor to have such a move this time, so I probably didn't prepare for it, but they won't let go of this opportunity, and they will go."

Meimei nodded: "That's right, I'll just follow them!"

Xu Junying paused, and put away her smile: "There are also King Qi, Princess Qi, Zhang Jingyun... Promise me, you will only follow me and don't go with anyone, okay?"
