After becoming a princess, she fell in love with the emperor of the enemy country

Chapter 272 Going up the mountain

When Qi Wuyou heard this, a look of understanding flashed across his face, and he thought to himself: Really, how could I have forgotten that Duke Anguo had thought so a long time ago.

In fact, she was not a superstitious person, but considering that she could take this opportunity to accompany An Ning to relax, it was also a good thing.

However, it is just a temple, how could it be so magical? Can marriage be realized by any prayer?

Qi Wuyou couldn't help but feel curious and confused.

After pondering for a moment, she glanced at An Ning beside her, and finally decided to satisfy her curiosity and go to Yunxi Temple to take a look.

So, she said, "If that's the case, then let's go and have a look. If we don't ask for a marriage, we can ask for something else."

An Ning raised her eyebrows, said nothing, and just nodded slightly to show her agreement.

Anyway, it's a rare opportunity to go out and play, so going to the suburbs to relax is a good choice.

Seeing that An Ning agreed, Qi Wuyou was overjoyed. He held An Ning's hand tightly and walked towards Yunxi Temple happily.

Along the way, she was very excited. She had never been to a temple to burn incense before. It felt so wonderful.

An Ning followed her silently with a faint smile on her face.

Yuehua couldn't help but feel moved since she heard An Ning say that she wanted to find a husband to marry into her family.

She had been in the Yu Mansion for so many days, but had never seen the so-called eldest young master of the Yu Mansion.

The more Yuehua thought about it, the more confused she became. She was very curious about whether the eldest son of the Yu family must have a good-for-nothing, which would lead the Yu family to find a husband for the eldest daughter to inherit the family business.

Thinking of this, Yuehua suddenly felt an impulse in her heart.

If she could return to the palace, report the matter to the prince, and help him take down the eldest daughter of the Yu family, wouldn't it mean that the prince could smoothly take over the huge family business of the Yu family?

Yuehua looked at An Ning's departing back, and a sense of guilt and remorse surged in her heart.

After all, she had been living quite comfortably in the Jade Mansion these days.

Although Miss Yu is cold to others, she has a pretty good temper.

Yuehua couldn't bear to see a woman like this being used by the prince.

but……

Yuehua clenched her teeth tightly, with a hint of helplessness in her eyes.

She knew very well that her situation was difficult. If she could not find out the real murderer who assassinated the prince and could not provide valuable clues, the prince would never let her go easily.

Thinking of this, Yuehua made up her mind to help the prince win over the eldest lady of the Yu family no matter what.

She looked at An Ning's back as she walked away, and a feeling of regret and helplessness welled up in her heart: I'm sorry, Miss Yu, if you don't care about yourself, you will be punished by heaven and earth. I have no choice but to do this.

However, Yuehua did not realize that while she was struggling with her inner struggle, Lianxiang had been quietly observing her.

Lianxiang sneered in her heart. This woman's thoughts were written all over her face. She was obviously planning how to harm An Ning.

It's really ridiculous. She actually dared to set her sights on my people. It's better not to be caught by me, otherwise I will make her suffer the consequences.

Finally arriving at Yuxi Temple, Qi Wuyou stood at the foot of the mountain and looked up. His originally bright smile instantly turned into a sad face.

Qi Wuyou couldn't help but complain: "Why didn't anyone tell me that I have to climb a mountain to burn incense at the temple?"

An Ning looked calm. She looked at Qi Wuyou with a playful expression and said, "Since my little sister doesn't want to climb the mountain, let's go back!"

This game has been going on for quite a long time, and An Ning thinks that he should go back and study medicine properly.

If I don't study hard, it will be troublesome if I fail the master's assessment.

Besides, if she failed the exam, Lan Sheng would definitely laugh at her.

After hearing An Ning's words, Qi Wuyou shook his head to express his disagreement.

She said, "No, since we've come all the way here, how can we just go back empty-handed? We have to go up and take a look!"

After saying that, she took An Ning's hand and prepared to go up the mountain together.

So the two of them walked up step by step along the rugged mountain road.

Because the journey was long and difficult, and Qi Wuyou's physical strength could not keep up, it took them more than an hour to finally climb to the top of the mountain and arrive at the entrance of Yuxi Temple.

Qi Wuyou was already exhausted and out of breath at this time, but when she saw the other three people, she couldn't help feeling unbalanced.

The three of them didn't look tired at all. Walking such a long mountain road looked no different from walking on flat ground.

Qi Wuyou had a resentful look in her eyes, but she was so tired that she couldn't breathe and had no time to talk to An Ning about this.

An Ning saw through Qi Wuyou's thoughts at a glance and said with a smile: "I often go up the mountain to dig herbs, and it takes more than ten miles to go back and forth. Moreover, I have to carry a heavy medicine basket every time, so this distance is a piece of cake for me."

After hearing this, Qi Wuyou sighed helplessly.

Then, Qi Wuyou looked at Lianxiang and Yuehua who were following behind him.

Seeing this, Lianxiang spread her hands and said, "Miss, I've told you a long time ago that you shouldn't lie down all the time when eating, otherwise you'll only gain fat but no strength."

Qi Wuyou was speechless for a moment and took a deep breath, but he couldn't refute it, so he pulled An Ning and continued to walk forward.

Qi Wuyou and An Ning followed the crowd into the temple.

Qi Wuyou looked left and right but didn't find anything different about this temple.

The temple is filled with a faint scent of sandalwood, making people feel peaceful and solemn.

Qi Wuyou and An Ning followed other pilgrims to the main hall.

Qi Wuyou had never been to a temple to burn incense before, so naturally he knew nothing about these things.

As for An Ning, she has never come to the temple again since that incident.

An Ning used to go to the temple frequently, but after that incident, she stopped going there.

If there really was a god blessing her, why did she pray so devoutly every time, but Xiaotao still left her in the end?

An Ning had a complicated expression. Looking at the kind-looking Buddha statue, a feeling of annoyance surged in her heart.

But seeing Qi Wuyou's enthusiastic look, she didn't want to spoil his fun, so she reluctantly followed Qi Wuyou and lit a stick of incense.

After burning incense, they began to visit the ancient temple.

Qi Wuyou was curious about everything, but An Ning was not interested at all.

The temple is solemn and dignified, with strong incense and a faint scent of sandalwood.

As they walked, they came to a side hall.

Compared to the main hall, this place is relatively deserted, but it has a quiet and peaceful atmosphere.

However, the incense in this hall is no less than that in the main hall.

Qi Wuyou felt strange and looked from afar, only to see a Buddha statue he had never seen before.

This Buddha statue is different from the common ones. Its expression is kind and gentle. It is a statue of a woman, which makes people feel extremely at ease.

Qi Wuyou curiously asked the monk next to him about the origin and meaning of the Buddha statue.
