People always say "take a trip that goes without saying a word", but there are very few people who really do it. They are always bound by time, or are bound by themselves. They tell themselves that this is not possible, and they cannot let go of everything and set off now. But Xu Yan and the Minister of Rites prove to you with practical actions: they can do it!

Just after Xu Yan finished reading the memorial, he sent the guards around him to the Minister of Rites' Mansion. In less than two days, the Minister of Rites prepared a complete set of plans for Xu Yan to play for the ministers. Xu Yan was worried that if the activities of the ministers and the people were interspersed with each other, it would be difficult to manage and would not be able to assign guards to protect them. Now that she has solved a major problem, she has added a lot of impressions of the Minister of Rites.

Where is Ningshan? Xu Yan, who is knowledgeable and talented, could not remember it for a while, but at this time she only thought it was because she was superficial. She absolutely did not expect that it would be because Ningshan is a barren mountain and wilderness where birds do not shit...

Although she studied at Qingshan Academy, the academy was built on the mountain, but because she always rode a horse or rode a horse, she never climbed it. Therefore, it can be said that she was a person with no experience in climbing the mountain. It felt very interesting to have ministers accompany her on the first time she climbed the mountain. However, because she didn't like exercise, she felt a little overwhelmed after walking not long.

After she proposed this plan in the court, what surprised her was that most of the young ministers agreed to go there. Even Lu Huai and Peng Yue raised their hands on their own, and they didn't know if they had colluded privately.

As they set out in the same way as before, in order to experience the fun of climbing, they specially parked the carriage at the foot of the mountain, and the group walked up in a mighty manner. I don’t know how long they walked, and finally saw a red building, which looked like they had arrived at the temple. The large army in front stopped, and she breathed a sigh of relief. Unexpectedly, climbing the mountain was even more tiring than she thought.

She looked up at the sky. The sky was a little gloomy and the sun was hidden in a hazy place, but the heat did not decrease at all. With the unique tide, people became more and more unable to get excited. She stopped and gasped slightly. It was not until Yingchun beside her that she forced her to get over again.

I thought the former convenience was a place where the flowers bloomed, but who would have thought that the front was just a piece of loess, which was completely different from the paradise described by the Minister of Rites. When she saw this scene, she couldn't help feeling a little disappointed.

Ningshan is not far from Qingyun Academy. She has been in Qingyun Academy for several years. Every time she finishes class in the evening and looks into the setting sun, she can always see the red temple on the emerald green jade belt. She always thinks that she must go up to see it in person when she has time, but she is delayed by one thing or another. So she will secretly depict the scenery on the mountain in her heart. I guess that temple is written by Master Dingru, "A cicada roars after the rain, and the pine and osmanthus autumn are floating. The moss is covered with the steps, and the white birds are staying." It is full of Zen beauty.

There are no flowers here, and there are no temples that the Minister of Rites asks for a great sense of marriage. When the group of people who arrived first saw this scene, they were filled with unexplained feelings of loss.

"Continue to go forward. There is still a way to go before Dinglin Temple." The guidance from the Minister of Rites came from behind. They breathed a sigh of relief for a while. It turned out that this was not their destination. But as they gradually moved forward, the road ahead became more and more difficult.

The muddy land and the obstacles growing across the branches seemed to mock their overestimation. Their "pioneers" were blocked by these obstacles and hesitated and dared not take steps. And at this moment, a kind reminder from the Minister of Rites came from behind: "Be careful, there may be some insects inside, and there may even be snakes."

Hearing this sentence, a layer of cold sweat immediately emerged from her back. She had already hesitated and did not dare to step out easily at this moment. But the ministers behind her were waiting in line in front of this short broken wall. She was determined and stepped out with Yingchun's support.

She didn't know what Tang Seng thought when he entered the Pansi Cave. But she especially remembered that she was full of fear at that time, fearing that some monster would pop up after taking the next step. So she walked with great caution, staring at the steps below her feet, fearing that something would be served in the dark, and taking the opportunity to attack when she was unprepared. Her spirit was very tense along the way, and her heartbeat seemed to be still. She didn't even dare to breathe too loudly, for fear of disturbing some creatures on the road. Yingchun, who was beside her, kept supporting her and giving her the courage to continue walking.

When she finally arrived on the road, she breathed a sigh of relief. In her shock, she secretly sighed in her heart: This is her first climbing, but she wants it to be the last. The sport of climbing is not something that she is particularly timid.

Life is that no matter how many ups and downs you have experienced or how rugged the road ahead is, you still have to bite the bullet and walk on it. The same is true for climbing a mountain. The end ahead is the end that she has been looking forward to, and the people she cares about are around her. At that moment, she suddenly felt that the meaning of life seemed to be here.

But life will never be calm. It always gives you a blow when you feel that everything is so beautiful. As it turns out, the faint feeling of uneasiness in her heart from the beginning of going up the mountain is not groundless.

No one noticed that just as everyone was joking and jokingly heading forward, the clouds had swallowed up the light of the entire sky.

"Tick" She touched the crystal water droplets on the back of her hand and looked into the sky. Like the end of the world, the rolling dark clouds eroded all the light of the day like a nightmare. With a thunder, the rain poured down, and instantly swept the earth.

The ministers were stunned by this scene and took out the umbrellas they carried and held up. Everyone hid under the trees in front, hoping that the towering tree could cover themselves for a moment. But the wind and rain fell ruthlessly, whistling and washing away everything in the world. Everyone's umbrellas were swaying in the wind and rain, and they could not completely cover themselves. The rain seemed to have life, sweeping from all directions, soaking everyone's clothes. Everyone curled up and snuggling to warm each other. She listened to the "crackling" sound of raindrops as big as beans on the umbrella, and her heart was mixed for a while.

After a long time, the rain finally subsided, as soft as the rain in the south as people remembered. They packed up their mood and embarked on the journey again. After the wind and rain, it was always a rainbow, and they walked smoothly along the way. Along the way, they walked a little smoother. Along the way, the pink cherry blossoms swayed down the stream formed by the rain, which was so beautiful. While enjoying the scenery, they finally arrived at Dinglin Temple.

When she sat in the meditation room and looked around at the ministers who were in a unified shape, followed the abbot to the marriage tree of Dinglin Temple, and recalled the beautiful scenery she encountered along the way, she understood the meaning of this trip:

This trip is not when, or where the destination is, but fortunately I have you by my side.
