Chapter 163 - 163: Jealous (4)



When did they become so familiar with each other?

It was just a meeting at the Buddha Temple, yet she could address him so intimately?

Xie Xingyun glanced at her in self-deprecation and turned his horse around.

At first, Bai Xianyu still had doubts. After hearing Mo Xin’s words, she could already confirm the identity of the man in front of her.

He was not Lin Yuan.

Rather, he was Mo Linyuan.

Mo was the imperial surname of Daqing.

Mo Linyuan was still smiling. “We met a few times by chance previously. We’re old acquaintances, right?”

Bai Xianyu did not take this matter to heart. She had to care about a person in order to feel sad or embarrassed by his deception. To her, Mo Linyuan was just a casual acquaintance. Coupled with his special identity, it was understandable that he did not reveal his real name.

Hence, she quickly smiled. “Yes.”

Second Prince Li Dan and Third Prince Li Jing walked over and exchanged pleasantries with Mo Linyuan. The other princes had already mounted their horses and were about to go forward together.

Among them, the oldest was only the Second Prince, Li Dan. He was still not even 18 years old.

In the end, they were all a group of young men and women. Other than the Third Prince, the other princes were still studying in school. Even though they had the status of being members of the imperial family, they were still at an unruly age.

The men rode horses while the women sat in carriages.

A group of people marched towards the Great Xiangguo Temple.

* * *

The Great Xiangguo Temple was located in one of the most prosperous areas of the capital. It had survived several dynasties and was magnificent in scale. Its main structure was comprised of the Seven-Treasures Buddha Hall, Wenshu Hall, the three gates of the Heavy Tower, the East and West Pagodas, and so on. It occupies more than 500 acres and has jurisdiction over more than 60 Buddhist monasteries. There were many tourists from ail over the world.

Compared to the previous Buddha Temple, the Great Xiangguo Temple was even more prosperous. The Emperor held annual banquets, offered sacrifices and prayed to gods. Famous monks appeared in large numbers and the collection of scriptures was as vast as the sea.

After settling down and eating, the envoy delegation stayed at the Great Xiangguo Temple, while Mo Linyuan and the others boarded the pleasure boat.

The pleasure boat was extremely spacious inside and could accommodate dozens of people. At the bow of the boat, a few veiled dancers bent down and stretched their sleeves while the musicians played music, accompanied by the sound of flowing water. The atmosphere was uniquely romantic.

Xie Xingyun found a spot not far from Bai Xianyu. He placed the silver sword by his hand but did not look at her.

Bai Xianyu watched as Li Dan and the others surrounded Mo Linyuan and chatted. Young people always seemed to have a lot to talk about. They were all nobles, so they quickly got along.

“Lin Yuan, this river is called the Zuo River. It’s one of the branches of the Li River. It flows around the river and can take in the prosperous scene of the Great Kui dynasty. How do you find it? Isn’t it beautiful?”

Mo Linyuan took a look with a smile and said, “Beautiful.”

“The temple fair of the Great Xiangguo Temple is also famous. We can go together tomorrow.” Li Yi brought a pot of wine and smiled. The guard took it and poured wine for everyone.

Xie Xingyun had just closed his eyes to pretend to sleep, his long legs outstretched. The guard took a careful look. His hand that was holding the wine pot turned in a different direction.

Because of the large number of tourists, bureaucrats, literati, and foreigners gathered here, there was a lot of trade near the Great Xiangguo Temple, and the temple fair was even more lively.

“Unfortunately, I can only sightsee for ten days. The Grand Tutor had even assigned me many tasks. When I return to the residence, 1 still have to copy some books and write some papers.”

The one who spoke was the youngest prince among them, the Seventh Prince, Li Chun. Although he was young, he was already 14 years old.

Fourth Prince Li Yi smiled and said, “You only know how to play.”

Li Chun sighed helplessly. “However, it’s not bad to be able to play for a few days. We rarely have holidays. This time, it’s all thanks to Brother Mo.”

Mo Linyuan smiled politely.

Everyone spoke one after another, and it was especially lively.

Mo Xin and a few girls sat in the back row and were also discussing the rouge and cosmetics of the capital and Daqing. The entire pleasure boat was chattering.

In order to prevent any eventuality, when choosing a seat, Bai Xianyu chose to sit in the middle. On her left was where the women sat, on her right, not far away, was Mo Linyuan.

She looked at their smiling faces and found nothing unusual. If the mastermind behind the murder at the White Horse Post was really any one of them, then this person was really too scheming.

At this moment, Bai Xianyu’s arm was pushed by someone. Mo Xin followed her gaze and teased, “Xianyu, are you interested in my cousin?”

Xie Xingyun opened his eyes.

Bai Xianyu tilted her head and smiled simply. “Princess, you’re thinking too much.”

Mo Xin smiled and did not expose her.

Originally, her attitude towards Bai Xianyu was a little complex. No girl would feel comfortable seeing such a beautiful woman in front of someone they liked..
