As a result, on this day, Lin Aoxue and Yunyan slept until sunset before getting up from the bed.

Lin Aoxue finally got his wish and got dirty, his mouth was full of oil, and his eyes were shining.

Yun Yan was helpless, thinking that the two of them finally got together, so let her go, but fortunately yesterday, Lin Aoxue spent a lot of physical strength.

The two fell asleep hugging each other until the evening.

Lin Aoxue woke up first, her throat was a little sore, her whole body seemed to fall apart, and her arms were sore and soft.

When I get older, I still have to stop, and my physical strength is not so good.

Lin Aoxue sighed helplessly in her heart, thinking about whether it would be better to be more restrained.

After she woke up, she thought about instructing the palace servants to prepare dinner, but when she moved slightly, Yunyan woke up.

Yun Yan's voice was also very dry. She opened her eyes, glanced at Lin Aoxue, and hummed softly:

"Mu Xue, I'm thirsty and want to drink water."

How could Lin Aoxue keep her Yan'er waiting for a long time, she immediately jumped off the bed naked, walked towards the desk, and put her underwear on her body.

Although her legs and feet were a little weak when she landed, she didn't fully recover after sleeping in the morning and afternoon. She used her excellent martial arts skills to forcibly stabilize her figure, and then she came to the table lightly and heavily, and put the case on the table. She poured a cup of herbal tea and sent it to Yunyan.

Yunyan saw that Lin Aoxue was wearing thin clothes, she grabbed the clothes from the bed and draped it over Lin Aoxue, and let out a light anger:

"Why are you so anxious? Although it is already spring, the outside of the quilt is still cold. What if it freezes?"

Lin Aoxue stuck out her tongue and tightened her clothes as she said, and replied:

"Okay, Yan'er drink tea."

Yunyan glared at her, then took two sips of tea from the tea bowl in Lin Aoxue's hand to moisten her throat, and then helped each other up with Lin Aoxue, Yunyan also sighed in her heart:

Better to be in moderation.

Let's do some medicated food to recuperate your body from tomorrow.

After the two got dressed, Lin Aoxue went out to let the palace attendants prepare dinner, and then went to rest in the courtyard of Yuyan Palace with Yunyan. The warm sun reflected on the water is a rare tranquility and beauty.

"Yan'er, let's go to Yuanming Temple tomorrow to pray for incense."

Yuanming Temple is on the outskirts of the capital. She wants to take advantage of the holiday she promised to the ministers to have a good time, and take Yunyan out of the palace to play. Yuanming Temple is a quiet place. I also wanted to bring Yunyan to visit, and that's why I came up with such a proposal.

Yunyan scalded the celadon cup with hot tea, then poured a small cup of tea for Lin Aoxue, gently pushed it to Lin Aoxue's hand, and replied with a smile:

"Okay."

As the ruler of a country, Lin Aoxue has very little time to travel. Now that this opportunity is rare, Yunyan is naturally willing to leave the palace with her and relax.

Yunyan nodded, and Lin Aoxue immediately sent the order to let the palace staff arrange it. It was getting late today. After dinner, the two of them enjoyed poetry and paintings for a while, and then they both went to bed.

In the early morning of the second day, the palace servants had already prepared their carriages and horses. Lin Aoxue and Yunyan left the palace in a carriage, and with a hundred guards behind them, they left the capital and headed to Yuanming Temple.

The Yuanming Temple was full of incense and many tourists. Lin Aoxue didn't say hello to Hongming in advance. Anyway, it was just an impromptu trip. If everything was arranged properly, there would be people offering offerings in fear and sincerity.

After leaving the capital, at the foot of the mountain near the Yuanming Temple, there were large tracts of fertile fields. Lin Aoxue lifted the curtain of the carriage and looked out. There were farmers working in the fields.

Looking at the endless fields and the children chasing and making troubles up and down the fields, Lin Aoxue rarely felt a sense of pride and satisfaction. This is the country under her seat.

She suddenly felt that it was not bad to be the emperor. She could give shelter to her beloved ones, and she could use the power in her hands to realize the wish that her father could not fulfill at the beginning.

That's fine too.

Although not as she originally wished, she took Yunyan back to the mountains and forests and went far away.

But like now, when she has free time occasionally, she can travel with Yunyan and see the mountains, rivers and the earth. It can be regarded as another way to fulfill the wish she made with Yunyan at first.

Lin Aoxue thought to herself, and when she looked back, she saw Yunyan looking out from the car window on the other side. On the boundless wilderness, there was a lush green patch, which made people feel refreshed and refreshed.

"It is also a blessing for the people of Ning to have a benevolent ruler like Mu Xue."

Yun Yan suddenly pursed her lips and smiled, the light in her eyes was soft and warm, and Lin Aoxue felt extremely excited.

After traveling for half a day, the carriage arrived at the foot of the mountain where the Yuanming Temple is located. Lin Aoxue thought about entering the temple to meet her teacher, and she had to be more religious, so she suggested walking up the mountain.

Yun Yan had no objection, the carriage had been sitting for a long time, and the bones all over his body seemed to fall apart.

Lin Aoxue stepped out of the carriage, reached out to Yunyan again, and let Yunyan help her get off the carriage.

This trip was also in micro-clothing, so Lin Aoxue and Yunyan did not wear very luxurious underground palace clothes. They looked more like two wealthy young ladies, and ordinary people would not carry more than a hundred attendants with them.

Lin Aoxue and Yunyan went up the mountain hand in hand. The mountain road was not difficult to walk. After Hongming became a monk in the previous dynasty, the Prime Minister cherished his apprentice and spent a lot of money to rebuild the mountain road, paving the smooth stone steps all the way to the gate of Yuanming Temple.

Therefore, starting from the foot of Yuanming Temple, there is no rough and muddy road.

Yunyan followed behind Lin Aoxue, looking at the long stone steps leading to the top of the mountain, with a soft light in her eyes, she suddenly felt something, turned her head and sighed at Lin Aoxue:

"Mu Xue, you spent ten years on this mountain before."

Lin Aoxue nodded, pursed her lips and smiled.

On the way up the mountain, since the day she left the capital with Hongming, she has walked back and forth many times, and she can't remember. Which part of the stone road is in disrepair and which is loose because of the road. The vegetation on both sides turned the direction.

She knows it all.

This is a rare change in her own family, after three years of wandering in Beijing, a rare ten years of peaceful time.

The only regret is that at that time there was only hatred in her heart, and her obsession was so deep that she didn't have much thought to appreciate the short-term peace that her teacher brought her.

At the beginning, if she wished, she could live peacefully and peacefully in Yuanming Temple for a lifetime.

Hongming will protect her. Even if she doesn't go home, she can still be a lay disciple. In the mountains next to Yuanming Temple, she builds a hut and has no trouble in her life.

But she herself gave up that opportunity.

Everyone makes choices all their lives, and every choice is what they think is the best or the most appropriate at the moment, so there is nothing to regret.

Life moves forward step by step, if there is no Lin Aoxue who left the temple many years ago, there is no power in the palm of the world today, Ning Muxue, the king of Ning who returned with Yunyan to visit.

Even though the journey up the mountain was not bumpy, it was also very physically exhausting. Lin Aoxue and the few servants behind them were all trainers, and they didn't feel too tired even halfway through. , was a little tired.

Lin Aoxue was not in a hurry to go up the mountain, so she changed her mind and took Yunyan to a pavilion halfway up the mountain.

The pavilion looks a little old, but fortunately, monks from the temple often come down to clean it, and it is fairly clean. The pavilion is located on a rock projecting out of the mountain, flanked by pine trees jutting out of the mountain wall.

Lin Aoxue led Yunyan into the pavilion for a short rest. From the pavilion, he looked down the mountain. He could see all the villages under the mountain at a glance, and had a panoramic view of all the beautiful fields.

"it's beautiful."

Standing on the edge of the pavilion, Yunyan looked around, looking at such a scene, as if her heart could become wider.

Looking from this position, it is much more complete than what I saw in the carriage just now.

Lin Aoxue motioned for the guards to stay outside the pavilion, while she walked into the pavilion slowly, stood beside Yunyan, accompanied her to watch the distant scenery, and said with a smile:

"Yeah, it's pretty."

Yunyan's eyes were filled with autumn waves, she turned to look at Lin Aoxue, and smiled:

"Your Majesty, in this peaceful and prosperous world, how much credit can your concubines take?"

Lin Aoxue laughed and nodded in response:

"That's natural. Without the help of the Queen, where would I have achieved today."

The two rested in the pavilion for a while, and when they were about to go up the mountain again, they saw an old man selling candied haws on the side of the mountain road. Sugar haws are mostly sold to children, because there are many pilgrims in Yuanming Temple, so there are many children who travel between the mountains.

Lin Aoxue paced up to the old man, bought a candied haws, and then went up the mountain with Yunyan one by one.

The guards who followed them looked at each other in dismay, and Xue Guan, who had always been used to Lin Aoxue's cold face, wanted to laugh a little.

Although they walked very slowly, the remaining half of the mountain road soon came to an end. The sun had just slanted to the west, and Lin Aoxue led Yunyan to stand in front of the Yuanming Temple.

At this time, the pilgrims hadn't dispersed yet, and there were many people passing by, but there were no pilgrims like Lin Aoxue and Yunyan who followed more than a hundred guards, so the sweeping monks in front of the temple saw them all at once.

When Lin Aoxue practiced in Yuanming Temple many years ago, she was dressed in men's clothing. Only Master Hongming knew Lin Aoxue's identity. Now Lin Aoxue wore a skirt and went up the mountain. The monks in the temple only thought that the female benefactor was kind and familiar, but she was not. Couldn't recognize her identity the first time.

But such a distinguished pilgrim will not be neglected no matter where he goes, even in the Genmei Temple.

The two sweeping monks came over quickly, folded their hands in salute to Lin Aoxue and Yunyan, and asked:

"Are all the benefactors here to offer incense at the temple?"

Yuanming Temple was full of incense, and there were countless dignitaries and dignitaries who came to the temple to offer incense, so the monk who was sweeping the floor was calm and did not deliberately compliment and please, but said with an easy-going attitude.

Lin Aoxue nodded and smiled, and replied:

"Come to the temple to add incense. Besides, I don't know if Master Hongming has free time recently. I want to visit the temple."

When the sweeper heard Lin Aoxue mentioning Hongming's name, he suddenly realized that most of the people who got close to Master Hongming were dignitaries and dignitaries, and the pompous ones like Lin Aoxue and Yunyan couldn't even be ranked.

The monk nodded and replied:

"Master Hongming said in the hall today that there is still about half an hour to end, and there will be no arrangements after that."

Lin Aoxue heard the words and said:

"Then I'll go into the temple first to add incense, and after the Master's lectures are over, I'll go to see you."

The monk led the way sideways:

"So, please, the donor here."

The road he was referring to was the side entrance with few pedestrians on the side. The main entrance was crowded and not clean. Many people with status liked to enter the temple from a place with fewer people, and Lin Aoxue and others were no exception.

Lin Aoxue thanked the sweeping monk who led the way, and then took Yunyan and the guards into the temple from the sidewalk.

The environment of the temple is quiet and quiet, and many pilgrims come and go in the front hall. Lin Aoxue is very familiar with the environment of the temple, so he directly detours from the secluded path to the Guanyin Hall at the rear.

Lin Aoxue accompanied Yunyan, entered the Guanyin Hall and entered the incense, and then went forward, there were many other halls such as the Arhat Hall, so I won't go into details.

Halfway through, Yun Yan suddenly suggested that he wanted to visit the place where Lin Aoxue lived when he was young.

Once Yunyan asked for anything, Lin Aoxue always responded. Since Yunyan wanted to know her past, she was also willing to show her past to Yunyan.

Yuanming Temple is not a big one. The place where the monks live in the backyard is very secluded, and the meditation rooms are lined up in a row, neat and clean.

After Lin Aoxue went down the mountain, Hongming did not vacate the meditation room where she lived, so everything remained as it was, except that there were monks guarding outside the monastery. Seeing Lin Aoxue and others coming, the monks were very surprised. There were few in the backyard. Pilgrims came over, not to mention two beautiful female benefactors.

They were very surprised, and immediately a monk guarding the gate came over and said:

"Followers, this is the place for the purification of the Zen courtyard. If the donor is to bring incense in the courtyard, please detour to the front courtyard."

Lin Aoxue laughed when she heard this familiar voice:

"Senior Brother Pingyue, I haven't seen you for many years, stay safe."

The monk who just spoke had a look of surprise on his face. He couldn't remember when he had ever met such a beautiful woman. They were cultivating in the monastery, and they didn't have too much contact with the female pilgrims who came and went. Someone could actually shout out. His dharma name made him feel a little helpless for a while.

However, when he took a closer look, he realized that the woman looked familiar. He frowned slightly, not daring to answer lightly, but hesitantly asked:

"The donor... recognize the little monk?"

Lin Aoxue laughed, and suddenly stepped forward and started with Ping Yue. Ping Yue was shocked and subconsciously counterattacked, and Lin Aoxue, you came and I made an appointment for more than ten moves.

The martial arts that Lin Aoxue performed just now came from the same school as him.

He was stunned for a while, and suddenly realized who Lin Aoxue looked like. It was Lin Aoxue who had left the temple and went down the mountain many years ago to join the army in the north.

Yuanming Temple has many pilgrims, and their tongues are mixed, and the news came quickly. He also heard that after his younger brother went down the mountain, he became prosperous in the north, and later went to Beijing to quell the rebellion, ended the rebellion of the previous dynasty, and ascended the throne as the emperor.

It was only after Lin Aoxue ascended the throne that the news came out. It turned out that Lin Aoxue, the great general in the North, was actually a woman who did not let her men down. .

Pingyue has also heard of these news, but he has never seen the real body of the Empress, so for a while, he did not dare to associate the gentle and handsome woman he saw with the junior and junior brothers who had been together day and night, and who had been chopping wood and carrying water together. .

He was stunned for a while before finally reacting, but he didn't dare to call Junior Brother Lin Aoxue, but after being stunned for a while, he bowed and said with a wry smile:

"I never thought it was the Empress who came in person. Now, how can this junior brother call out."

Then he looked at Yun Yan next to Lin Aoxue, and recalled that there was news two days ago that His Majesty the Empress was getting married, and the Empress was a beautiful woman.

"Presumably this is the queen. I don't know if your majesty and the queen are visiting, the little monk will be far away."

Lin Aoxue knew that her identity could no longer be returned to the past. Even if these brothers and sisters recognized her identity, they were destined to not be able to chat and laugh with her like before.

She didn't want to force it either, and after Yunyan and Pingyue nodded, they said:

"Senior Brother Pingyue, I want to go back to the meditation room where I lived before."

It's not that she wants to put on airs deliberately, but after all, today is different from the past.

After her voice fell, Pingyue took the initiative to move out of the way, Yun Lin Aoxue led people into the temple, and when Lin Aoxue entered the courtyard, Pingyue said again:

"Do you need the monk to inform the mage?"

It stands to reason that it is not an exaggeration for the empress to visit Yuanming Temple in person, and the host of the temple goes down the mountain to welcome her from afar. However, Lin Aoxue came quietly, and Pingyue thought that Lin Aoxue might be visiting Master Hongming, so he asked this question.

Lin Aoxue heard the words and waved:

"Don't bother, the respected teacher is teaching the scriptures outside the hall, and I will visit after that."

Pingyue was stunned for a while, and suddenly felt guilty in his heart, but he didn't understand why he felt guilty. He stopped outside the temple and watched Lin Ao, Xueyun and Yan walk towards a temple next to him, with a very complicated expression.

Lin Aoxue ignored Pingyue, she asked Xue Guan to wait in the courtyard with others, and specially reminded Mo Jiao to clean up the monks in the courtyard, so she and Yunyan went to the meditation room where she once lived.

Everything in the house is still the same as before. The Zen room, which has not been inhabited for many years, is fortunate that someone comes to clean it from time to time, and it looks fairly clean.

Yunyan looked around, and the furnishings in the room were very simple. There was only a wooden bed, a low table, and a small cabinet, which contained several sets of monk robes, which was simpler than the tent that Lin Aoxue lived in when he was in the military camp.

Lin Aoxue walked around the room and told Yunyan about the days when he practiced in the monastery with a relaxed expression. There was an open space behind the meditation room, and a wooden formation was set up in the open space. The brothers and sisters practice martial arts together.

Hearing Lin Aoxue talk about the past, Yunyan felt a little melancholy, she could almost imagine what kind of life Lin Aoxue lived at that time.

During the time Lin Aoxue spent in the temple, it was desolate and bitter. Even though there were brothers and sisters around, no one knew her true body, and no one could share her joy. To practice martial arts to such a degree, it can be seen how much hardship she has paid.

Fortunately, all of this has passed, and they revisited their old places, recalling bitterness and sweetness, only to know that everything they have gained today is not easy.

Lin Aoxue didn't have a painful expression on her face. She looked back at Yunyan. To be able to achieve something today, to meet Yunyan, and to be with her like this, was something she had never dreamed of in the past ten years.

Yun Yan walked to Lin Aoxue's side, held her hand, squeezed her palm, and Lin Aoxue laughed.

She has no regrets if she can win Yan'er's favor in this life and marry her as her wife.

The two did not stay in the temple for too long. Lin Aoxue counted the time. After they entered the incense in the front yard, they visited the temple again. Presumably the time was almost up, and it was time for Master Hongming's lectures to end.

They came out of the Zen courtyard together, nodded when they passed Pingyue, and then walked away slowly.
