Chapter 497: Going to Dragon Temple

As an important figure in this plan, Guo Huan had to show his face.

This time, it was finally not Wei Ting who was pretending to be Guo Huan. Su Li happily welcomed his first open trip.

“Brother! ”

Guo Lingxi walked over excitedly and held Su Li’s arm affectionately. Su Li immediately put on a pained expression. “What are you doing?”

Guo Lingxi said, “Go to the Dragon Temple to pray!”

Guo Lingxi was the princess of the dynasty, so she naturally went.

“Are you planning to… always… hold my arm?” Su Li asked in extreme pain.

“Can’t I?” Guo Lingxi asked.

Su Li used his grandmother’s kind tone. “You’re not young anymore… Men and women don’t sit at the same table when they’re seven years old. As a girl, you have to know your limits.”

Guo Lingxi was speechless.

The blessing lasted for a total of two days, which happened to be the school holidays.

Su Xiaoxiao sent Su Ergou and the three little ones to the Marquis of Zhenbei.

This made Matriarch Su and Madam Tao extremely happy.

The few young brats at home had grown up. They became officials or went to school. No one knew where the only fifth son went. The residence was cold and cheerless. The two of them were about to suffocate to death.

Su Ergou politely called them… Grandmother and Auntie.

Matriarch Su asked him to call her grandmother and not let him use any words that might seem like an outsider.

The three little ones also called her great-grandma and eldest-grandma obediently.

Madam Tao was overjoyed. She was clearly a grandmother, but they still called

her aunt. How embarrassing!

“You guys!”

She pinched their little faces.

The three little ones did not forget to bring their two brothers.

Xiaohu introduced seriously, “Sihu, Wuhu.”

Madam Tao was stunned. “Wuhu (perished)?”

Dahu said, “It’s Wuhu (Fifth Tiger)!”

Madam Tao wondered,” Isn’t this still Wuhu(perished)? Why did you give this name to the parrot?

Xiaohu opened the birdcage. “Wuhu, come out and play.”

Matriarch Su and Madam Tao were shocked. Aiya, the bird was going to fly!

However, not only did the Mystic Wind Parrot not fly, but it also resisted coming out.

Xiaohu took out Wuhu.

The black parrot rolled its eyes.

In the past, countless opportunities to escape were placed in front of it.

However, it could not move its claws away for a bag of bird food.

It had to fly away today!

It had to dash toward the freedom he had yearned for for for a long time!

“Wuhu, let’s eat.” Xiaohu took out the bird food Su Xiaoxiao had brought from the pharmacy.

The Mystic Wind Parrot decided,”l can dash to freedom next time.”

The blessing ceremony began on the ninth day of the New Year, even earlier than the court. In order to ensure that every step did not delay the auspicious time, the royal family and ministers had to stay at the National Protector Dragon Temple the night before.

The mighty prayer team set off from the palace entrance. The royal family was in front, and the officials were behind.

The imperial guards and the Qin family’s iron cavalry escorted them the entire time.

Qin Canglan brought Su Cheng along.

This was the first time Su Cheng had officially appeared in front of others as the Duke Protector and the heir of the Qin family’s army.

He was wearing silver armor and a silver helmet, riding on a warhorse that was also covered in armor.

He was no longer Bully Su of Apricot Flower Village, but the majestic Young Master of the Qin family.

Qin Canglan looked at his valiant son and touched his right wrist in relief.

Ever since he took the medicine his granddaughter gave him, his wrist had improved a lot. The gout rarely acted up, and his strength had recovered a little.

The Grand Astronomer said that the star had fallen to scare him. In his opinion, he could live for another ten years!

Emperor Jing Xuan sat in a carriage while the princes rode horses.

The Eldest Prince, Xiao Duye, who had been grounded for many days, was also released.

He and Xiao Zhonghua rode in front of Emperor Jing Xuan’s horse.

The Second Prince, Xiao Shunyang, did not follow the two of them. He took a few steps back in a low profile manner and rode unhurriedly beside the Grand Empress Dowager’s carriage.

Bai Xihe sat in the car in boredom.

The weather was a little bad, and it was stuffy sitting in the carriage.

Bai Xihe pushed open the window on the left and saw Xiao Shunyang on his horse.

“No.” Bai Xihe closed the window.

After a moment, she pushed open the window on the right.

When she saw Su Cheng riding on the warhorse, her eyelids twitched and she closed the window!

Su Cheng was puzzled. Eh? What happened just now?

“Grand Empress Dowager?” Little Yunzi looked at her in confusion.

“It’s fine,” Bai Xihe said calmly.

Behind Bai Xihe’s carriage were the carriages of the Empress Dowager, the Empress, and the two princesses.

The Empress Dowager also felt very stuffy and hot.

She asked Eunuch Cheng to push open the windows on both sides before a cold wind finally blew.

She sighed. “It’s only May, but the weather is already so hot.” “It’s hot in the carriage,” Su Xiaoxiao said. “It’ll be cooler on the mountain.” Also, the Empress Dowager was actually wearing too much.

The clothes of the ancients were layered on the inside and outside. It would be strange if they were not hot.

“Open the window wider.” The Empress Dowager was about to faint from the heat.

“Yes.” Eunuch Cheng opened the window to the maximum and took a fan to fan the Empress Dowager and Su Xiaoxiao.

Princess Jingning and Princess Hui An sat in a carriage.

The two of them were no longer hot.

Princess Hui An crossed her arms. Her eyes were sharp and cold.

“Why are you squeezing into a carriage with me?” she asked angrily.

Princess Jing Ning said calmly, “Do you think I want to come?”

In the past, Princess Jingning rode with the Empress, and Princess Hui An rode in the Empress Dowager’s carriage.

This year, there was a female physcian accompanying the Empress Dowager in the carriage. Princess Hui An could only be alone in the carriage. In order to not let her be alone, the Empress asked Princess Jingning to accompany her.

Her mother simply wanted peace!

A trace of resentment flashed across Princess Jingning’s eyes.

In the afternoon, the convoy arrived at the foot of the Dragon Temple.

The Dragon Temple was only so big. Other than the royal family and some guards who could live in it, the others rested in a nearby villa.

Su Xiaoxiao and the Empress Dowager got out of the carriage.

Only then did she realize that Jing Yi had been silently escorting the back of the carriage.

“Jing Yi? It’s been a long time.” She walked over and greeted him. “Have you recovered from your injuries?”

Jing Yi got off the horse. “I’ve recovered.”

Su Xiaoxiao looked around and whispered, “Did anything happen along the way?

Jing Yi shook his head. “No.”

Su Xiaoxiao muttered, “The White Lotus Society let us come over safely?”

Jing Yi thought for a moment and said, “When we first set off, the soldiers will not have exhausted their energy and their combat strength is high. Typically, assassins would not choose this time. The journey back is the most dangerous. At that time, everyone’s mental strength would be already a little weak, so it is easy to make mistakes.”

Su Xiaoxiao felt gratified that her family had grown up. “You’ve grown up. You even know this.”

Jing Yi frowned and said, “I’m not a child!”

Su Xiaoxiao smiled.

Only children said that they were not children.

Jing Yi’s analysis made sense. It was indeed the most dangerous to go back. Therefore, on the way back, he would put in 120% effort and doubled his vigilance.

However, if they predicted the White Lotus Society’s actions, would the White Lotus Society predict their judgment?

The White Lotus Society might not wait until the blessing was over.

In these two days, the White Lotus Society could attack at any time.

“Physician Su, it’s time to go up the mountain,” Eunuch Cheng said.

“Okay.” Su Xiaoxiao nodded and said to Jing Yi, “I’ll go first.”

Not far away, Guo Lingxi lifted the curtain and glared at Su Xiaoxiao coldly. “So what if you go up the mountain? I can go up too!”

Guo Lingxi went to look for Bai Xihe.

Bai Xihe was bored for the entire journey in the carriage. Her entire body was hot to the point of heatstroke. The moment she came out, she missed a step. Xiao Shunyang’s expression changed as he pounced over to save her.

Bai Xihe instinctively grabbed to the side.

Su Cheng, who had just dismounted, wondered, “Eh? Who pulled my belt?”
