Zhongnan Mountain, also known as Taiyi Mountain, Difei Mountain, Zhongnan Mountain, Zhounan Mountain, or Nanshan for short, is located in the middle section of the Qinling Mountains in Shaanxi Province.
The south of Chang'an, the birthplace of allusions such as "Shoubi Nanshan" and "Zhongnan Shortcut", is an important geographical symbol of Huaxia.
Zhongnan Mountain has dangerous terrain and rugged roads. There are five large valleys and over a hundred small valleys, stretching for hundreds of miles.
"Zuo Zhuan" calls Zhongnan Mountain "the danger of Jiuzhou", and "Historical Records" records that the Qinling Mountains are "the obstacle to the world".
"Chang'an County Chronicle" records: "Zhongnan stretches across the south of Guanzhong, starting from Qinlong in the west and ending at Lantian in the east. It is 800 miles apart. People in the past said that there is no bigger mountain than Zhongnan, even outside Taihang."
It can be seen from these records that Zhongnan Mountain is a famous mountain in ancient times.
If there is a famous mountain, there must be a famous temple, and the Buddhist Caotang Temple is located here.
Caotang Temple is located at the northern foot of Guifeng Mountain, with Fengshui River to the east, Taishui River to the west, and Guifeng, Guanyin, Zige and Dading peaks of Zhongnan Mountain to the south. It has beautiful scenery.
As the starting point for the introduction of Buddhism into the Central Plains, it is also the ancestral home of the "San Lun Sect", one of the "Eight Sects of Buddhism".
It is not only the first national translation center for Buddhist scriptures in Huaxia, but also the longest and largest translation center among the three major translation centers in Buddhism.
At the foot of Zhongnan Mountain, Yang Fan stood on his horse and saw a beautiful hilltop surrounded by mountains. From a distance, he could see a looming temple located among the mountains.
It was noon at this time, and the colorful glazed tiles of the temple reflected the brilliance of the sun, making it look dazzling.
Such a grandeur shows the splendor of Buddhism and also dissipates a bit of the delicate air in the mountains.
Looking at the winding mountain road, Yang Fan was a little depressed.
However, I had promised Princess Gaoyang to accompany her to the temple fair on June 19, Guanyin's birthday, some time ago, so I had to take leave from the Firearms Prison. Update without error@
Early this morning, Princess Gaoyang asked Princess Jinyang to come to the Firearms Supervisory Station to find him.
Even though he was somewhat reluctant, Yang Fan could only act as a bodyguard.
Of course, it doesn't mean that Yang Fan doesn't want to accompany Princess Jinyang to the temple fair.
But this time the time is tight and the task is heavy. His Majesty Li Er has high expectations for the firearms inspection, so Yang Fan naturally does not dare to neglect.
Moreover, without machine tool processing, all barrels must be polished manually.
All the craftsmen in the Firearms Supervision Department worked overtime, and it was a very busy time.
If we spend three days fishing and two days drying the nets, we still don’t know how long it will take to complete the task.
Since His Majesty Li Er asked him to quickly produce muskets and thunder.
You can't just get a few muskets and fool people, right?
Hong Tianlei's experiment was very dangerous, and Yang Fan could only watch as much as possible.
However, when several princesses called, Yang Fan naturally had to obey.
What's more, Princess Gaoyang obviously caught Yang Fan's weakness and asked Princess Jinyang to invite her. It was impossible for Yang Fan to refuse.
But Yang Fan was very puzzled. There were many temples in Chang'an City. Why did these princes and grandsons come to the remote Caotang Temple to visit the temple fair?
While thinking, the carriage following behind opened the curtain, revealing the cute face of Princess Jinyang.
Seeing Yang Fan standing on the horse, Princess Jinyang asked in a sweet voice: "Brother-in-law, why don't you leave? Do you not know the way? Sister Changle and Sister Gaoyang came first. They should have arrived long ago, but don't let them Long wait!"
Yang Fan smiled slightly: "Nuo, we'll be there soon!"
As he spoke, he lifted the rope, causing the horse beneath him to neigh and take small steps with its four hooves.
The horseshoe collided with the bluestone underfoot, making a clattering sound.
Princess Jinyang's eyes lit up, she felt that riding a horse was so majestic, and she immediately said coquettishly: "Brother-in-law, I want to ride a horse!"
Regarding Princess Jinyang's request, Yang Fan would not even have the slightest thought of rejecting it.
Even if she wants to go up to the sky to catch the stars, Yang Fan will probably find a way to redeem Shenzhou spaceships from the system.
So, Yang Fan nodded without hesitation.
But the nun who was taking care of Princess Jinyang was frightened and immediately said: "Your Highness, how can you be so ridiculous? If something unexpected happens in this mountainous and rugged area, how can I explain to the queen?"
Although Princess Jinyang wanted to ride a horse, she couldn't embarrass this old woman, so she could only talk unhappy. (This chapter is not finished yet!)
Chapter 531: Keeping an Appointment
But the longing look in his eyes could not be concealed.
Seeing Princess Jinyang's disappointed expression, Yang Fan was filled with panic.
This sweet little girl, no matter how eager she is, will not willfully cause worries and troubles to those around her.
She knew that if something unexpected happened, these nuns would have to bear the wrath of His Majesty Li Er.
But Yang Fan didn't care about this.
Five or six-year-old children are naturally exploring the world and being active. Is it really good to be so repressive in nature?
Besides, this little girl like a flower might wither and wither in a few years. How could Yang Fan bear to let her down.
It doesn’t matter whether you call him willful or a stick!
Of course Yang Fan didn't allow this to happen, so he grabbed the horse's belly and approached Princess Jinyang.
Holding the rope with one hand, he reached in from the car curtain with the other hand, put his arm around Princess Jinyang's waist, and said with a smile: "We are riding a big horse. Your Highness, please hold on tight!"
Princess Jinyang, who was originally full of disappointment, shone brightly, her cute big eyes twinkling.
Seeing Yang Fan's actions, he was suddenly filled with infinite surprise. He didn't care so much, so he stretched out his hands and hugged Yang Fan's arm tightly.
After all, Princess Jinyang is just a cute baby of five or six years old.
Yang Fan just exerted a little force, and he lifted Princess Jinyang's petite body out of the car window.
The nun who was waiting on the side was frightened and shouted with a trembling voice: "My lord Wannian County, the mountain is high and the road is slippery. Be careful of hurting the princess. Put her down quickly."
Yang Fan placed Princess Jinyang on the saddle in front of him, fixed Princess Jinyang tightly in his arms, and then said with a smile: "Mommy, don't worry, if there is any accident, I will bear it."
"If His Majesty is to blame afterwards, just put the responsibility directly on me, and His Majesty will definitely not punish you."
Then he leaned over to look at Princess Jinyang, whose face was flushed with excitement, and asked dotingly: "Your Highness, are you ready? Let's gallop on the horses right away!"
Princess Jinyang was so happy that she turned around and took a big sip on Yang Fan's face, shouting excitedly: "Brother-in-law, hurry up... drive!"
It's just that Princess Gaoyang doesn't know how to control a horse, so the reins are swung around in her little hands.
The horse just raised its head and walked leisurely.
Yang Fan chuckled, clamped the horse's belly, and shouted: "Hold on, ride!"
The horse beneath him suddenly stepped forward, its brisk steps making a loud sound on the bluestone path, and soon disappeared on the mountain path.
When the accompanying palace maid saw this, she was so frightened that she almost lost her soul and screamed: "County Lord, His Highness has a body of thousands of gold, please slow down, be careful of Your Highness falling..."
These people almost greeted all Yang Fan's eighteen generations of ancestors in their hearts.
Where are such stupid people?
This is Her Royal Highness Princess Jinyang!
The apple of the eye of the current emperor!
If an accident happens, it doesn't matter if you, Yang Fan, are thick-skinned and thick-skinned, and get beaten by His Majesty.
But we servants don’t have the status of Yang Fan, so we are not allowed to be killed by the emperor?
Who are we provoking?
Aren't you just going out to visit the temple fair?
I thought it was a good job, but I didn't know it was going to scare me to death.
This damn Yang Fan is really a stick, he is simply lawless...
Yang Fan, who had already run away, didn't care what they thought?
The silver bell-like laughter of Princess Jinyang in her arms seemed to be the most beautiful music in the world!
As long as the little girl is happy, I dare to break the truth, let alone just riding a horse.
The horse trotted along the winding road, turned one corner after another, and came to a relatively gentle area.
The environment here is beautiful, quiet and pleasant, with shadowy woods, overgrown weeds, the sound of hundreds of sounds, and the gurgling water.
Among the green mountains and trees, a Buddhist temple is hidden among them.
The temple reflected in the green trees, with its gray-white walls, blue-grey temple ridges, and pale green towering ancient trees, are all bathed in the golden sun.
The surrounding trees are towering and their branches are entwined, fully displaying the charm of this ancient temple in the mountains.
Connected to the temple is. (This chapter is not finished yet!)
Chapter 531: Keeping an Appointment
There is a path in the forest, which is paved with granite and winds up along the slow slope. What comes into view is the main entrance of the temple.
There are two stone lions in front of the temple. They are majestic but not fierce. They seem to be influenced by Buddhism and are particularly cute.
Yang Fan thought that not many people came to Caotang Temple, which was located deep in the mountains.
I had thought that the open space in front of the temple was already filled with luxury carriages.
Apparently, many people also come here to pray!
Just as he was about to ride his horse over, he heard Princess Jinyang in her arms shouting: "Brother-in-law, we are going the wrong way, we are going the wrong way! My sister and the others said they would wait for us in the other courtyard nearby..."
Yang Fan looked in the direction of Princess Jinyang's fleshy finger and saw a trail hidden among the woods, a small fork in the road.
Moss has grown on the road, and there are faint marks of horseshoes and ruts. If you don't look carefully, you will hardly notice it.
Yang Fan didn't doubt that he was there and went straight into the path.
There is a lot of greenery here, and even though the sun is scorching hot, the temperature is not high.
With the chirping of birds and the chirping of insects in my ears, I felt a bit like I was in a paradise.
Walking out of the path, your eyes suddenly opened up.
A piece of emerald green grass comes into view like a carpet, and an exquisite courtyard stands next to it, looking unique and original.
Yang Fan was a little surprised!
How could there be such a solemn and elegant courtyard? Isn't this a Buddhist temple?
Just when Yang Fan was confused, the voice of Princess Jinyang came.
"Brother-in-law, brother-in-law, look, sisters and the others are waiting for us there!"
Yang Fan raised his eyes and saw two beauties in palace attire standing side by side at the pavilion under the shade of the trees.
Due to the distance, the two of them lowered their heads, and Yang Fan could not see clearly.
Looking from a distance, these two people are graceful and light. Reflected by the light spots, they are as beautiful as fairies!
Perhaps hearing the sound, the two women turned their heads and when they saw Yang Fan and the others, they immediately waved their hands excitedly. @精品\/书馆*First update~~
"Xiao Sizi, this way..."
Only then did Yang Fan see the appearance of the two people clearly.
It is Princess Gaoyang and Princess Changle.
The two of them stand together, like lotus flowers side by side, and are extremely beautiful.
With a groan, Yang Fan stopped the horse beneath him.
He hugged Princess Jinyang with one hand, supported her with the other, and jumped off the horse.
On the other side of the pavilion, Princess Changle also secretly looked forward, just in time to see Yang Fan jumping off the horse vigorously.
Wearing a sky-blue Shu brocade robe and black leather boots, although his figure is not burly, his muscles and bones appear well-proportioned, and his movements are quite casual and free.
Princess Changle bit her lips lightly and whispered in her heart: "Why does everyone call him Bang Chui for such an extraordinary talent? He is simply a rare talent in the world!"
At this moment, Princess Changle avoided looking into Yang Fan's eyes, and the two eyes met each other.
His eyes were focused, his eyebrows were thick, his lips were pressed together, and there was a faint smile on his angular face.
It should be said that Yang Fan looks very good.
In terms of beauty alone, compared with Changsun Chong, Li Ke and others, he is indeed a bit ordinary.
But Yang Fan's self-confidence and proud masculinity are not something ordinary people can possess.
Of course, the most impressive thing is Yang Fan's eyes as dark as ink and as bright as stars.
At this moment, Yang Fan was shining with unknown brilliance. When he looked at himself, he was slightly complicated. There was surprise, reluctance, and a trace of regret in his eyes.
Of course, it's also mixed with possessiveness.
The eyes that seemed to be able to speak made Princess Changle's heart beat wildly.
This was the first time she looked at Yang Fan, and for some reason, she felt a trace of shame in her heart.
Thinking of what Princess Gao Yang said in the morning, Princess Changle couldn't help but feel flushed and hot.
Princess Gaoyang on the side saw Sister Changle and her husband looking at each other from a distance, and Princess Gaoyang couldn't help but smile.
He leaned into Princess Changle's ear and said, "Sister Changle, how do you think the husband I have chosen? Doesn't he look good?"
"I tell you, a man, in addition to looks, must also have a strong body, this is it. (This chapter is not over yet!)
Chapter 531: Keeping an Appointment
We women rely on us throughout our lives. "
"If my sister can take a fancy to you, how about you give me half of it?"
Princess Changle suddenly blushed and was extremely embarrassed. Update without error@
Although she has been married once, she is still a young lady after all.
Now being teased by Princess Gao Yang, Princess Changle immediately blushed with embarrassment. Finally, she cheered up and pretended to be angry: "What are you talking about, sister? I have never had such thoughts?"
"Also, you're not married yet, how do you know so much?"
Princess Gao Yang chuckled: "This is what Concubine Yang taught me... Why is my sister so shy? Isn't this normal?"
With that said, Princess Gao Yang pulled up Princess Chang Le and walked slowly towards Yang Fan.
Princess Changle struggled slightly, but did not break free. She could only follow Princess Gaoyang closely with a light step.
The two beauties' willow waists are swaying lightly, matching the beautiful scenery of the mountains. They are simply beautiful.
Yang Fan's eyes widened when he saw it!
Princess Jinyang waved her hands vigorously and shouted excitedly: "Sister, sister... Sizi was riding a big horse just now, did you see it?"
Only then did Yang Fan come to his senses and put down Princess Jinyang in his arms.
As soon as her feet landed on the ground, Princess Jinyang spread out her short legs and ran towards Princess Gaoyang and the others excitedly.
Yang Fan ran a few steps and came to Princess Gao Yang.
As she grows older, Princess Gaoyang's figure becomes more plump.
The fair melon-seed face is as white as jade, the cherry-shaped mouth is as bright as fire, the willow eyebrows are curved and the eyes are full of autumn, and the affection in the eyes cannot be concealed at all. She is really a lovely fairy...
At this time, Princess Changle on the side also raised her head and looked at Yang Fan, her smart eyes were charming and angry: "County Lord, we haven't seen you for a long time!"
Yang Fan's heart skipped a beat when he saw such a pair of talking eyes. He quickly bowed and saluted, "Wei Chen has met Her Royal Highness."
Seeing the two people looking a little embarrassed, Princess Gaoyang chuckled and said softly: "Langjun, sister...it's not the first time you have met, why are you so elegant? We are all a family, why do you need to imitate those sour people?" You are so polite as a rotten scribe."
"Is Gao Yang being in your way here? You can do whatever you want and don't worry about me. I'll just pretend I didn't see you..."
Yang Fan sweated profusely, what are these words...
Just do whatever you want and pretend you didn't see it?
Yang Fan thought so!
But do you think Princess Changle is a girl from a brothel?
Besides, why do girls in brothels still have to pay?
Princess Gaoyang teases her sister like this, isn't she afraid that Princess Changle will be angry?
But to Yang Fan's surprise, Princess Changle just blushed and glared fiercely.
Then he lowered his head, with a hint of sorrow between his brows, adding a bit of fragility.
Yang Fan was dumbfounded!
What's happening here?
Is Her Royal Highness the Princess such a good-tempered person?
Although he couldn't figure it out, in order to relieve the embarrassment, Yang Fan coughed dryly and asked: "Your Highness, since today is Guanyin's birthday, let's go to the temple fair as soon as possible?"
Princess Gao Yang suddenly laughed: "It's true, Mr. Lang. It's past noon now, and the temple fair is almost over. Why else do we have to attend the temple fair?"
Yang Fan looked depressed and murmured in a low voice: "Since you have finished shopping, why did you ask me to come?"
Princess Gaoyang said quickly: "Although the temple fair is over, there will be a banquet later. I hope my husband can accompany us to attend."
Yang Fan frowned and asked: "What kind of banquet? Who is there?"
Princess Gaoyang replied: "Except for some brothers and sisters, the rest are the invited noble children!"
Hearing this, Yang Fan's head got bigger. He hated this kind of banquet the most. .
