Chapter 570 The secret must not be revealed
Just after packing up, Beixiu Banquet came back.
After lunch, Shen Ruzhou and Beixiu Yan set off. Miaodong and Qin Ming also accompanied them, and the four of them rushed to Xuanqing Temple.
The carriage was walking on the official road in the suburbs of Beijing. There were not many pedestrians on the road, but the scenery was pretty good. Shen Ruzhou lifted the car curtain and looked all the way.
"Is it so good-looking?" Bei Xiuyan said with a faint voice. He moved towards Shen Ruzhou and couldn't help but look outside.
Shen Ruzhou smiled and said, "Actually, I can't tell, but I was very happy as soon as I went out. I just felt that the world was vast and I couldn't see enough."
"If you like it, I will take you out often in the future." Bei Xiuyan rubbed her head lovingly.
"My lord, are you not afraid that I will run wild and have no intention of settling down in the inner house in the future?" Shen Ruzhou tilted his head, his eyes were shining brightly, and his curved eyelashes were trembling slightly, cunningly and smartly.
Bei Xiuyan's eyes were full of her, his sword eyebrows were raised, and his bearing was outstanding.
"Even a woman should not just be trapped in the four directions under the roof. Like Zhou, you have a benevolent heart and are proficient in medical skills. You should travel to various states and places to fight injustices, treat difficult diseases, and live a different life. All the world."
Live your own world.
Shen Ruzhou repeated these words in his heart several times, feeling how lucky he was to meet Beixiu Yan. He never restrained her with the three obediences and four virtues, and always encouraged and supported her to do what she wanted to do.
With such a man by his side, Shen Ruzhou felt that he was the most blessed person in the world.
"My lord, I'm very happy to meet you in this life." Shen Ruzhou sat up straight and said every word seriously.
Beixiu Yan also straightened his body and replied solemnly, "Ruzhou, I am happy to be with you."
As night fell, the carriage stopped in front of a guesthouse, and several people decided to rest here for the night before setting off again tomorrow.
In small shops in the countryside, the food is simple, only clear soup noodles.
After sitting in the car for several hours, Shen Ruzhou was already hungry, but he really couldn't work up his appetite for the clear soup and watery noodles.
When he was in trouble, Beixiu Yan took out the food box from the car. Shen Ruzhou opened it with a smile and hurriedly opened it. There were red bean cakes, hanging flower cakes, and purple rice cheese. Looking at the second layer, unexpectedly It is full of dried fruits of various colors, including peanuts, chestnuts, walnuts, etc.
Her happy eyes turned into slits as she smiled, but she said angrily: "How come the prince has prepared so many snacks, but he treats me like a child."
Beixiu Yan took out the snacks in the food box one by one and placed them in front of her. Hearing the sound, he said: "I'm afraid you won't be used to eating outside food, so I prepared some. Just eat it and wait until you get to the prefecture and county tomorrow to buy some." Just bring some delicious food with you, and you won’t be short-changed on the road.”
With the hanging flower cake in her mouth, Shen Ruzhou felt sweet in her heart. She gave some to Qin Ming and Miaodong, picked up a piece of red bean cake and passed it to Bei Xiuyan's mouth.
When Bei Xiuyan saw everyone looking at him, he looked a little embarrassed. Shen Ruzhou refused to comply. He put his hand there and refused to take it back.
She had always followed the rules, but now that no one knew their identity in the wilderness shop, she became willful.
Seeing her overbearing look, Bei Xiuyan finally smiled fondly and opened his mouth to eat.
After resting for a night, everyone continued on their way the next day.
Not long after traveling, the sky suddenly became cloudy and it was about to rain. Beixiu Yan asked Qin Ming to find a nearby temple to take shelter from the rain.
When a few people entered the temple, there were already many people taking shelter from the rain. Everyone had nothing to do, so they heard an old man talk about anecdotes,
"We have a Taoist priest here who is very good at fortune-telling."
"More than ten years ago, this Taoist priest traveled to Zezhou and met Emperor Yong'an, who was still the governor of the county at that time. The Taoist priest saw that this man had the appearance of an emperor, and then made suggestions along the way to support Emperor Yong'an in his final quest for the throne. "
"Then what happened next? If the Taoist priest made such a great contribution, he must be a high-ranking official with a generous salary." A young man asked curiously.
"Get out of here, don't ask for fame or fame." The old man shook his head and said, "The Taoist priest doesn't want anything. He returns to his hometown, performs fortune-telling and interprets fortunes, and lives a life of wandering clouds and wild cranes."
As soon as he finished speaking, everyone sighed, and the young man asked, "If he doesn't want to be a high-ranking official and rich in salary, then what does he want?"
"For peace in the world and happiness for the people." The old gentleman stroked his beard, his deep eyes full of respect.
The young man stood up directly and said loudly: "I don't believe there is such a fool. It must be you who made the nonsense casually."
"You are young and have little knowledge. You don't understand the lofty aspirations of those who care about the world." The old gentleman didn't care much about it. When he saw that the rain outside had stopped, he got up and left.
People who came here to rest were all people on their way. As soon as the rain stopped, they all packed up and left.
Shen Ruzhou stood up and was about to walk out when he saw Bei Xiuyan still sitting there, seemingly still immersed in the old gentleman's story, lost in thought.
She pulled him with her hand and said with a smile, "You don't believe it, do you?"
Bei Xiuyan said: "The old gentleman is right, there is indeed this person. I have seen it in the royal secret files. He is Emperor Yong'an's counselor named Dongfang Qingling. However, this person has been hiding in hiding and his whereabouts are unknown. "
Having said this, Bei Xiuyan strode out to catch up with the old man who had just told the story, and asked for advice, "May I ask, sir, where can I find this Taoist priest?"
"It's in the village ahead. He often sets up a stall to tell fortunes. You can find it if you ask." The old gentleman pointed forward enthusiastically.
Beixiuyan bowed his hands and thanked him, and decided to pay a visit to the Taoist priest.
After walking for more than an hour, they arrived at the village the old gentleman mentioned. Bei Xiuyan and Shen Ruzhou got off the carriage and were about to inquire when they saw a long queue in front of a hexagram stall not far away.
Bei Xiuyan looked from a distance and recognized Dongfang Qingling at a glance. He had met this man when he was in Yongzhou.
Previously, he had always thought that he was Xiao Chenyan's adviser. When he was in Yongzhou, he came to check the tattoos on his body. Now it seems that it is still unclear whether this person is an enemy or a friend.
The people who came to tell fortunes were all nearby villagers, and the questions they asked were trivial and complicated. But no matter what he asked, Mr. Dongfang answered them one by one, and everyone only received one penny.
Shen Ruzhou was last in line for the Beixiu Banquet, and it wasn't until the sun set that it was their turn.
Beixiu Banquet came forward and bowed his hands in greeting. Before he could say anything, Mr. Dongfang said: "Young Master, your destiny is precious. Everything you say and do is related to the people of the country. No matter what you want to ask, I can only reply with one sentence. Don't reveal the secret." .”
Hearing this, Beixiu Yan was startled for a moment, then he smiled with a clear smile, put a penny on his desk, cupped his hands and said, "Thank you, Taoist Priest, for bothering you."
Seeing Bei Xiuyan turning around to leave, Shen Ruzhou quickly stopped him and said, "Wait a moment, you have finished the calculation, I haven't done it yet."
After saying that, she sat down in front of the hexagram table and said with a bit of shyness: "Taoist Priest, I want to calculate my fate."
Beixiu Yan listened on the side, and his breath suddenly stagnated. When he saw Mr. Dongfang raising his eyes and looking at them, his face suddenly became hot.
Mr. Dongfang shook his feather fan and said with a smile: "The girl has an excellent marriage. She will definitely marry a man of her choice in the future, have children, and grow old in love."
After hearing this, Shen Ruzhou smiled brighter than the summer sun.
