"Yuanyuan, do you really stop thinking about what the mother and concubine said?" Seeing her daughter sitting on the swing in a daze, Princess Dingnan came closer and sat at the stone table not far away.
Wen Yuan didn't say anything, got off the swing and walked to sit next to her mother.
The woman took her daughter's hand and patiently persuaded her: "There are so many good men in the capital, but you are already past your prime. If you don't hurry up, you will really become an old girl. Starting tomorrow, mother will help you."
When Wen Yuan heard that his mother and concubine were going to go on a blind date for him again, Wen Yuan's head got bigger and he rejected his mother irritably, "Mom, my daughter hopes that this matter will happen as it happens. Please don't specially arrange it for me."
But the princess couldn't listen to what she said now, and kept talking about how good the men in the capital were.
Wen Yuan's thoughts drifted away, and his mind was filled with the weird and handsome fox monk in his dream.
"Since Yuanyuan didn't refuse, it's settled." The woman succeeded while Wen Yuan was in a daze, and she felt happy at this time.
Determined? What's settled?
When he reacted again, his mother had already walked away quickly, and Wen Yuan could only ask Chunhua, who had been guarding her.
"What?! Who are you going to see in Tingfeng Hall tomorrow?!"
It's over, it's over, it's over, my mother has tricked me, and I have to go see the man I don't want to see tomorrow.
*
At noon the next day, under the supervision of her mother, Wen Yuan dressed up and went to Tingfeng Hall.
It is the best teahouse in the capital. It is built next to the river and has a wonderful view of the river.
The person we are going to meet today is Su Yanqing, the eldest son of the cabinet bachelor. He is a gentle and polite man with a decent appearance, but he still cannot interest Wen Yuan.
The two of them sat together for a long time without saying a word, but it was obvious that the man still liked Wen Yuan very much, and his face turned red.
When Wen Yuan was bored, she looked out the window and saw a familiar figure. The clear white color firmly locked her heart.
Before even having time to say goodbye to Mr. Su, Wen Yuan jumped out of the second floor window using Qinggong, "Wait a minute!" It's over, he ran away, this monster monk shouldn't dare to mess around in broad daylight...
Wen Yuan couldn't guarantee whether this monster would do anything harmful to the world.
The man who was still sitting in Tingfeng Hall was confused. What was going on? Before he could say a word, the beauty disappeared...
And he still walked with Qinggong.
Su Yanqing was unwilling to give in and ran downstairs as fast as he could to catch up.
Wen Yuan followed the white figure to the willow tree by the river, but just when he was about to find it, the person suddenly disappeared.
"I'm obviously very fast... I obviously saw it coming this way, but why did I disappear..." Wen Yuan sat on the stone chair by the river in frustration.
A gentle voice came from behind. I thought it was him, but when I heard it again, it didn't look like that. "Master Su, you and I are destined to have no fate. Please come back."
The demon monk couldn't be found. Wen Yuan's temper suddenly rose, so his tone was a little aggressive. After calming down, he reluctantly apologized to the man, "I'm sorry, Mr. Su. Wen Yuan was irrational just now. Please go back, I think." Be alone."
"Has the princess already found a man that she likes?" Su Yanqing's words were filled with sadness. His first love was over before it even began.
Wen Yuan looked at the calm river, melancholy in his heart, and his eyes were deep and distant, "Yes, except him, I will not marry anyone or fall in love with anyone, so Mr. Su, don't waste your time on me. There is a better woman waiting for you."
Wen Yuan pretended to be the same in order to get rid of the man, but little did he know that both of them took it seriously.
Wait...two people?
Just as the man was about to speak, the two of them heard a clear and melodious male voice coming from above their heads, "I wonder where the person you like, young lady, is?"
Wen Yuan stood up in shock, looked up and saw the demon monk, leaning on a thick willow tree, playing with a white jade flute in his hand.
What an outstanding man...
Su Yanqing was stunned. The man in front of him, regardless of his temperament and appearance, was one of a kind. He was really ashamed of himself.
No wonder Wen Yuan looks down on other men.
"Miss Wen, I'll leave first."
Su Yanqing was not the kind of person to mess around, so he left the rest of his time to this "beautiful couple".
After he left, Shen Huaiyan jumped down from the willow tree and stood quietly next to Wen Yuan with his tall figure. The man raised his hand and lifted a strand of her long hair, "It's my fault for keeping Yuan Qing waiting for so long."
Yuan... Yuanqing? !
Wen Yuan opened his hand angrily, "It's just to help you get rid of a difficult blind date. Don't think that I will let it go, demon monk."
But Shen Huaiyan didn't care about this at all, and became presumptuous again, "Haha~ My Yuan Qing is cute even when angry." Shen Huaiyan's hand unconsciously touched Wen Yuan's cheek, "This is a rare opportunity, let's go for a walk together."
"I owe you a favor today. You should leave quickly. There are extremely skilled demon hunters everywhere in the capital. Watch out for your fox head." Wen Yuan didn't appreciate it and knocked his hand off again, but it could still be seen that She didn't want Shen Huaiyan to die.
But the man brought the topic to other places, "In the past, when I called you Yuan Qing, you would get into my arms and act like a baby... But now, it's different from the past. You have already..." You don't remember me.
He didn't say the last half of the sentence, and his melancholy eyes drifted away. Wen Yuan felt strange but didn't want to ask. She wasn't interested in things about monsters.
Shen Huaiyan breathed out a breath of evil spirit towards Wen Yuan, and the woman in front of him fainted instantly.
Holding her in his arms, Shen Huaiyan felt as if he had been in another world... This situation must have been there for more than a hundred years.
When Wen Yuan woke up, he found that he had been taken to the ancient tree in the peach forest outside the city. This tree was planted by Emperor Taizu himself when he founded the country. It is evergreen and lush all year round.
Before he could curse the bitch next to him, the man waved his big hand in front of Wen Yuan's eyes, and a dark red mist enveloped the two of them.
In the mist is a man and woman walking side by side under the moon. The two are laughing and playing, showing their love.
When the scene turned, Wen Yuan saw the woman's face clearly. Her skin was like cream, her eyebrows were dark and her lips were red, "Isn't this..." herself?
Wen Yuan tapped her slender hand, and the scene in the mist flipped again. This time she saw clearly the appearance of the man, who was the demon monk next to her.
She didn't understand, and thought it was a monster using sorcery, and tried to disperse the smoke with her hands.
But as Shen Huaiyan's voice rang in his ears, Wen Yuan's thoughts gradually drifted away, "Yuan Qing, don't you remember? You and I have been in love for nine lives. We are destined to meet each other in every life, but I came a little later in this life... But Don’t worry, I will protect you in this life and won’t let you suffer the pain of the past.”
He didn't expect that Wen Yuan would be so determined that he could still be awake and jump down from the tree after reading those memories in the mist. "I won't let you go next time. I will definitely let the monster hunter catch you." .”
Wen Yuan wiped the dirt off his body and walked away without looking back, not even leaving Shen Huaiyan a chance to explain.
The man sitting on the tree only felt strange that he had used magic. Logically speaking, she should be able to remember some things from her previous life, so how could she walk away so calmly.
However, how could such a highly cultivated fox demon use magic to Wen Yuan be fine? He fainted at the gate as soon as he entered the city.
The officers and soldiers guarding the city gate were frightened. This was Princess Shunyang. If anything happened at the city gate, he would not be alive.
Who doesn't know that this ancestor was the favorite of the royal family. The empress dowager personally educated her and the emperor held her in his hands. The granddaughter grew up in the hands of the emperor. She was carried to court by the emperor when she was one year old.
Even if he scribbled on the memorial, the Supreme Emperor would not bear to rebuke him.
Wen Yuan was three years old that year. While playing in the plum garden, she stepped on her skirt and fell, and her cheek was scratched by a branch. The Emperor didn't say anything when he saw this, and immediately executed the three maids who took care of Wen Yuan on the grounds of improper care.
And all this shows that Wen Yuan's status in the royal family is important, so the officers and soldiers guarding the city gate are so nervous. Wen Yuan is safe, but if Wen Yuan has a shortcoming... I don't dare to think about the outcome...
"Mr. Hu, what's wrong with my Yuanyuan? What's the serious illness?" The princess was so anxious that she burst into tears. She kept saying that she had forced her daughter to go on a blind date...
The sons on the side took turns to comfort her, but to no avail, "If my daughter is gone, I will follow her!"
"Madam, why are you forcing Yuanyuan to go on a blind date not long after she came back? Okay, okay, don't panic. The imperial doctor hasn't spoken yet. We Yuanyuan are blessed people, so it's definitely not a big deal. disease."
King Dingnan was very affectionate with his wife. Even so, he was not willing to rebuke his wife. He only gently stroked his wife's back to make her relax.
Dr. Hu, who was diagnosing the pulse, did not speak. He only frowned and stroked his beard. This made everyone worried. After thinking about it, it must be some kind of incurable disease. Even Dr. Hu, the head of the hospital, could not do anything.
After a long while, the old man calmed down and said calmly: "The princess is fine. Maybe she is too hot due to the heat. Put some ice cubes in the room and come and fan the princess. It will be fine after the heat goes down."
After hearing this, several people felt relieved.
But even the imperial doctor didn't know that Wen Yuan's condition was not heatstroke, but a dehydration caused by demonic power. Fortunately, it was not life-threatening and he could just rest for a few days.
Wen Yuan woke up as soon as she burned the incense. As soon as she woke up, she straightened her clothes and ran to the palace. A group of servants chased her and shouted to her, but they pretended not to hear her.
Wen Yuan looked at the ring in her hand, and then thought of what the demon monk said to her. Now she wanted to know the origin of this ring and whether it had anything to do with her unexplained fainting.
After finding the emperor's demon hunter, Wen Yuan showed the ring to the man in front of him. It was just an ordinary soft silver ring, but it almost killed the man.
"May I ask Princess, where did you find this ring?" The man did not dare to touch Wen Yuan's ring anymore, and took Wen Yuan aside before asking about the origin of the ring.
"A young novice monk gave it to me." Wen Yuan lied, but it couldn't be seen on his face.
The demon catcher had no doubts and just asked Wen Yuan to put the ring on.
