Chabixing?

At this moment, I thought I had recognized the wrong person because it was too dark and the light was so dark, so it was inevitable to recognize the wrong person - but who else could there be except him with dark golden hair?

Moreover, when he walked out of the Taoist temple, he immediately took two steps towards us when he saw me.

"Miss? Emperor?"

It's really him!

For a moment, everyone was stunned. After all, they had walked in the palace and everyone around Pei Yuanhao knew him, but they never thought that they would see him in this place.

And I didn't expect that I didn't see him on the last day of discussion at Xishan Academy before. I asked Nan Zhenyi only to find out that he sent him to do something, and then there was no news about him. I didn't care about the affairs of the Academy, but I didn't expect that he would appear here.

What did he do here? Could it be that he came to do what Nan Zhenyi told him?

What else should I do with Nan Zhenyi and here?

In an instant, countless doubts emerged from my heart. I forgot to speak for a while. But he walked slowly over and walked to the horses of Pei Yuanhao and me, looked at us for a while, and said, "Miss, the Emperor."

Pei Yuanhao spoke at this time, and his voice also showed a little shock: "Chabixing, why are you here?"

This sentence asked everyone about the doubts.

Chabixing's face was not what I used to seeing in the past. The relaxed and teasing expression turned out to be a little heavier. When he walked to us and the firelight illuminated his face more clearly, he found that his eyes were very red and swollen, and his expression seemed a little haggard, as if he had not had a rest for several days.

If someone else was like this, I would understand it, but-

Chabixing?

He was like a monkey jumping out of a stone, his whole body seemed to have endless energy, and his optimistic attitude also allowed him to face any problems with ease, without any bonds that made him worry. Even when he entered the court, he could easily do so many heavy things.

But now that he is in such a situation, it is obvious that he has really encountered a big deal.

So I bent down from the horse and asked, "Chabixing, what happened?"

This sentence made his eyes flash slightly. He looked at me and then at Pei Yuanhao. He seemed to have a lot to say, but in the end he only sighed and said, "It's late, it's still raining. The eldest lady and the emperor first-"

He looked back and the Taoist boy followed him and looked at us in shock. Obviously, Pei Yuanhao and I really scared him.

He turned around and said a few words to the Taoist boy. The Taoist boy nodded and immediately turned over and ran in. This time the noise was quite loud. In a short while, the lights lit up one after another.

Chabixing said: "This Taoist temple is small and there are not many houses. I am afraid that only the eldest lady and the emperor, there are a few people, and the others-"

Wenhu and Wenbao immediately said: "We must protect the Emperor's safety."

Chabixing said: "There is no danger here."

Pei Yuanhao said, "You guys will take people around and stop, and I will go in and take a look."

Wenhu and Wenbao hurriedly said, "Emperor!"

Pei Yuanhao had already turned over and got off the horse and walked to Chabixing: "I believe him."

I also turned over and got off the horse and walked over. I didn't have many people, and because it was in Xichuan, most of them were not worried. Only Susu and Du Yan followed me. Du Yan said, "If you have me to protect the emperor, you can rest assured."

They were all business operations and could barely trust each other.

Pei Yuanhao gave a few more words, then made a gesture to Chabixing. Chabixing walked over and opened the door. The few of us slowly walked into the Taoist temple.

As soon as I entered, I felt the fragrance in the air became stronger.

It is indeed as I thought before, very small, but because of the smallness, the layout is more compact and reasonable, the doors are neat, and there is no extra carving of the eaves and beams. Obviously, this small Taoist temple has no money, but it makes people feel very comfortable.

Just in the past was an incense burner. Because of the rain, the incense ash inside was already cold, and the rain was clattering. Behind the incense burner was the Ling Palace. The candlelight inside was not extinguished, and you could vaguely see the statue of Wang Lingguan.

Behind it seemed that there was a higher palace, and the Sanqing should be worshipped, but Chabixing did not mean to take us back. After passing the Ling Palace, he walked along a long corridor on the right and walked to a courtyard.

It was also pitch black here, but as soon as I got closer, the little Taoist boy came over with a few Taoist priests.

One of them had neat clothes and a faint fragrance on his body, and should be the abbot of this Taoist temple.

They came over and hurriedly saluted Pei Yuanhao and me: "I'm bowing."

When they spoke, they looked a little frightened.

I'm afraid there are not many pilgrims in this kind of Taoist temple all year round. Now, two big names like Pei Yuanhao are suddenly here. No wonder they all got up. Chabixing said: "Don't care if you really do. His Majesty the Emperor and Miss Yan just came to us to ask something about it, it has nothing to do with those people a few days ago."

Pei Yuanhao and I looked at each other again.

When the Taoist priests heard this, they were relieved and quickly said, "Since that's the case, I won't disturb you."

It was obvious that we came late at night to disturb their rest, but instead they said that they would not disturb them. I felt a little funny, but there was no expression on my face. I just bowed to them. Several Taoist priests took the little Taoist boy backed out.

Even so, the lights outside did not go out again. It seemed that they were destined to be in peace tonight.

I turned around and looked at Chabixing: "You are very familiar with them, not like this is the first time you've been here."

Chabixing laughed and said, "Miss, don't mess with me. Since the lady is here, she naturally has to figure out everything before leaving. Go in first, it seems that the rain is getting heavy again."

Indeed, after a gust of wind, the surrounding trees swayed and the raindrops became denser. The torches in our hands were extinguished so that only a little flame was left. He took us hurried into the yard and pushed the door into a room.

As soon as I entered this room, a warm fragrance of medicine came towards me. A candlestick was lit on the table. The swaying candlelight shone on this not-so-large room. It was different from the room where ordinary Taoist priests practiced. This room had a bit of fireworks, just like the place where ordinary people lived, but in fact the furnishings were very simple. It was just a wooden table, two benches, and an incense table. There was a stone bed in the corner of the wall. The bedding on the bed seemed a little messy. It was obviously because the little Taoist yelled at me just now and had no time to clean up.

There was a blue cloth curtain hanging on the wall on the other side, and I didn’t know where it led.

Du Yan, Su Su and the others stayed in the corridor outside. Pei Yuanhao and I walked into the room and sat at the table. Chabixing said, "The mountain residence is simple, there is no good tea, there is only a little cold water."

I said, "We came here in the middle of the night, not just to eat, drink and enjoy."

He heard this and raised his eyebrows: "That's true."

After saying that, he put down the cup in his hand.

This looks a bit like Chabixing on weekdays.

I asked, "Chabixing, why did you come here? I didn't see you when I was discussing the last day of the academy. Didn't Nan Zhenyi ask you to come out to do business?"

He smiled and said, "I'm here to do what my master told me."

"Here?" I couldn't help but look out again. What did Nan Zhenyi ask him to come here to do in this quiet Taoist temple in the rain?

"Why is that?"

"For the library."

"Bookhouse?"

"Well," he nodded and said, "Senior Brother asked me to come here to find the person who was responsible for building the library."

I was shocked.

It was not that he shocked Nan Zhenyi to predict that the library might face a crisis of collapse before that, but that the person responsible for the library building was here?

Back then, my mother paid for the library to be built, so the person who was responsible for the creation must have had some contact with her.

I hurriedly asked, "Who is it?"

This time, Chabixing did not answer immediately, but just looked at me with a complicated expression.

Pei Yuanhao didn't say anything. His eyes kept looking at the blue cloth curtain on the wall over there. At this time, he asked: "Who is there?"

Chabixing also looked back and the expression on his face became more complicated. He looked at us, then was silent for a moment before he stood up and said, "Miss and the Emperor come in and have a look, just-be careful."

Pei Yuanhao and I looked at each other and immediately followed him.

He lifted the blue cloth curtain and then saw that there was a room inside, which was simpler than outside, but a bed with a shorter table beside the bed, and an empty bowl was placed on it, emitting the fragrance of medicine.

No wonder I smelled the scent of medicine as soon as I came in.

However, when we approached, we found that there was still someone sleeping on the bed, with his eyes closed and his face pale, which was obviously a wounded person.

But these are not that noticeable.

What really surprised Pei Yuanhao and I was that the person on the bed had golden hair and deep facial features, even deeper than Cha Bixing, which was a completely different appearance from the people in the Central Plains.

The ghost uncle I saw in the Dulai Pavilion in the capital immediately flashed through my mind. It seemed that this was the appearance.

This person - is someone from overseas?!

However, although he was unconscious, he could still see from the wrinkles at the corners of his eyes and mouth that he was not young, at least in his fifties.

My voice was a little dumb: "He is-"
