I walked leisurely on the mountain road of Fangcun Mountain, picking wild fruits in the mountain with small flower belts like Nangong Ruyu, and saw several hares chasing each other all over the mountain with screams.

Half of the square inch mountain could hear her screams of excitement.

"Xiao Hua, hurry up and stop them. Master, hurry up and help Yu'er catch the rabbit... Little rabbit, don't run so fast!"

It seems like this entire mountain is in her little hands.

The autumn wind, the wild fruits, and the mountains are filled with Nangong Ruyu's tender voice.

Looking at the two of them, Li Ye shouted: "Yu'er, you have to go back to Xuantian Temple while it's still dark."

Nangong Ruyu's laughter came from far away. It turned out that she finally caught a little hare with the help of Xiaohua, and she was very happy.

He ran to Li Ye with the little rabbit in his arms and showed him the little rabbit in his hand.

"This is a hare, can it be fed?" Li Ye looked at her and smiled.

"I don't know? Xiaohua said I can try it."

The hare in Nangong Ruyu's arms was frightened and looked at the three of them with big eyes.

Li Ye shook his head, looked at her and said with a smile: "Go back and try, if it doesn't work, let it go."

"Yu'er went to Master's place to pick some vegetable leaves and brought them back to feed it."

Nangong Ruyu smiled.

"No, there is a lot of green grass in the mountains. Just ask Xiaohua to take you to pick some and bring it back."

Holding Nangong Ruyu's little hand, the three of them headed towards Xuantian Temple.

He has decided to spend the winter in Xuantian Temple, mainly thinking that the two masters will leave at some time. Before they ascend, he wants to spend more time with the two old people.

I don't know since when, Li Ye discovered that people around him were slowly leaving this world.

Starting from Bai Susu, to Lao Yuan Lao Lang, then Xiao Bai, then the Emperor, and then the woman in white, even Mu Mu and Xiao Qing left him, and the two masters in front of him were also leaving.

For some reason, even after seeing away one familiar person after another, he still felt a little pain in his heart, unable to reach the state where his heart is as solid as a rock.

Is this what the old monk at the Great Buddha Temple meant by compassion?

Not really. When I fought in southern Xinjiang and fought on the Fuchun River, even though tens of thousands of people were lying dead, I didn’t even frown?

Could it be that the drop of blue blood essence in his body really gave him a demonic character?

So, what about my apprentice?

Li Ye doesn't know what will happen to Nangong Ruyu after the drop of essence and blood in her body is refined. For now, I can only take her with me.

One is to protect her, and the other is to prevent other practitioners from discovering the secrets in her body.

Fortunately, Nangong Xuanyuan already knew about this matter.

He could hide from Wu Xin, but there was no way to hide from Nangong Xuanyuan.

After all, if you don't go home for a long time, anyone will become suspicious, let alone a young lady from the Nangong family.

"Master, Master, isn't it this winter that we won't go back to Prajna Temple?" Nangong Ruyu was thinking about the jars of wine Li Ye had brewed.

"Where is the wine and it won't escape? Master Minghui is watching over it?"

Li Ye thought to himself that no one in this Prajna Temple would go to his small courtyard, except Wuxin and Wuyou.

Even if the two of them went there, they would just take a look at the yard and clean it up.

Even if the two of them stayed overnight, they would return to their own meditation rooms and would not stay in the small courtyard.

"The wine made by Yu'er is watched over by your master and father, as well as your master uncle Wuyou."

Li Ye looked at her and smiled, thinking that she was indeed a little money addict.

If not every girl was obsessed with money when she was young?

He thought he should find an opportunity to ask Princess Wutong. As a princess, she shouldn't be like Mu Mu, right?

Nangong Ruyu looked at him and smiled: "Dad doesn't know how to drink, but Master Minghui will definitely take a few sips secretly."

"He will hold back. It will only be considered good wine if it is left until next summer." Thinking about what the wine addict said, I thought to myself, how can it be considered good wine if it is not brewed enough for spring, summer, autumn and winter?

...

On the other hand, after Lan Pingchuan, the acting head of the Buddhist capital, learned about the emperor's intention, he was extremely grateful to Jiang Ruoyu and asked to invite the three of them to the palace for dinner, but Jiang Ruoyan refused.

Encourage him to think well of the people of Xixuan Territory and protect the Buddhist capital. As for other matters, the emperor will naturally make decisions when the time comes.

After a quick meeting, they left the Buddhist capital with Xia Wutong, Tang Heyu and headed for Fangcun Mountain.

How could they not be anxious when the sky was turning snowy?

Jiang Ruoyu originally asked the black-clad guards to return to the imperial city, but he insisted on meeting with the Imperial Preceptor, saying that the emperor had something to say and wanted to ask the Imperial Preceptor for his opinion.

In this way, the Nangong Nan family sent Nangong Jue to Fangcun Mountain with the four of them, saying that they were driving the carriage back to the Nangong family, and that they would come to the Buddhist capital to pick up the carriage after the bodyguards in black came down the mountain.

The group left the Buddhist capital early in the morning. Xia Wutong and Tang Qiuyu spent two days shopping in the city and bought countless clothes and food.

The two even bought winter clothes for Li Ye, not to mention Nangong Ruyu.

The Nangong family had already prepared clothes for the three of them to take up the mountain, which saved them a lot of trouble.

After all, the three of them have never met the little girl, and they don't know her figure or preferences.

Naturally, the clothes prepared by the Nangong Family are the most suitable.

Sitting in the carriage, Xia Wutong turned sideways, looked at Tang Qiuyu and asked, "I don't know whether he is at Prajna Temple or Xuantian Temple at this time?"

Tang Qiuyu thought for a while and said: "Let's go to Xuantian Temple first. Isn't he the disciple of Taoist Master Qingxu? We can go over and pay a visit to the Taoist Master."

Jiang Ruoyu thought for a while and said, "Okay, I also want to go to Xuantian Temple first."

Xia Wutong didn't know about her mother, but when her master and mother both said they wanted to go to Xuantian Temple first, she had no choice but to follow them honestly.

Fortunately, both of them have walked the mountain road here several times, so there is no need to look for a guide.

As long as the bodyguard in black can see Li Ye, he doesn't care where he goes.

His mission is to complete the tasks assigned by the emperor.

"This time we finally reached Fangcun Mountain without any danger."

It took two hours for the four of them to arrive in front of the mountain gate of Xuantian Temple. Tang Qiuyu finally breathed a sigh of relief. After all, following Jiang Ruoyu, she was under considerable pressure.

It's okay to be okay, but if something unexpected happens, it won't be easy for the three of them.

"I didn't expect that the legendary Xuantian Temple would be so simple. It is truly a paradise that only focuses on cultivation and does not care about the worldly affairs."

Looking at the blue Taoist temple of Xuantian Temple, Jiang Ruoyu was filled with emotions.

"Yeah." Xia Wutong raised his eyebrows and said with a smile: "This is my first time coming here, and I think the same as my mother."

Not only her, but also Li Ye who climbed Fangcun Mountain for the first time and stood in front of Prajna Temple had the same idea as the two of them.

Too simple.

"Simplicity to the extreme is the principle of spiritual practice!"

Jiang Ruoyu then said the same words as her husband before, and pulled Xia Wutong up the mountain.

They had to go to the Qingshi Courtyard first to see if Li Ye was there.

Tang Qiuyu looked at her and said: "There is another place in the back mountain. Only that guy Li Ye can enter. Neither we nor his husband can enter, and we don't know what good things are hidden in it."

Jiang Ruoyu was stunned, looked at the two of them and asked, "What place is so mysterious?"

Xia Wutong curled her lips and said with a smile: "There is a cave in the back mountain that only Li Ye and Mu Mu can enter, and neither of us can enter."

"That's an interesting place, maybe I want to see it too." Jiang Ruoyu said with a smile.

Tang Qiuyu raised his head and glanced at the hazy sky, and replied calmly: "You may not be able to go, it will snow on this mountain either tomorrow or the day after tomorrow."

Xia Wutong turned to look at his mother and said with a smile: "I forgot about this. If it snows on Fangcun Mountain, it will be difficult to walk. Otherwise, it wouldn't be called Fangcun Mountain."

"You are taking the words out of context. If the Imperial Master hears this, he will laugh for who knows how many days." Tang Qiuyu knew clearly that this was not the truth, but he could not say anything to her for a moment.

While they were talking, the four of them came to the door of the Qingshi Courtyard. Before they entered, Nangong Ruyu's cry came from inside.

"Little rabbit, don't run away. Come over here and Yu'er will feed you some vegetable leaves."

Unable to withstand her pestering, Xiaohua finally took her to the vegetable field in Xuantian Temple to pick some green vegetables, eat some, and use the rest to feed the little hare they caught.

Xia Wutong was happy, pushed open the courtyard door, and called softly: "Junior brother."

...

"Who are you and how did you break into my yard?"

Nangong Ruyu looked at the group of four people who came in through the door with vigilant eyes, holding the little rabbit tightly in her arms.

It seems to be saying, this is my territory, please reveal your identity quickly, and if you don't know me, leave immediately.

This lady does not welcome strangers.

Xia Wutong looked at the wary Nangong Ruyu and smiled, and said softly: "Xiao Yu'er, I'm here to find your master, where are the others?"

"Looking for my master?..." As soon as Nangong Ruyu heard that the other party called her name and came to see the master, she didn't dare to put on airs anymore.

"Master went to have tea with Master. Miss, where are you from and what are you doing with my master?"

As soon as he heard that Li Ye was not here, Xia Wutong immediately wanted to go to Xuantian Temple to find him.

Jiang Ruoyu grabbed her, shook her head and said, "What's the hurry?"

Seeing Nangong Ruyu who did not let down her guard, Jiang Ruoyu laughed and waved to her: "Is your name Nangong Ruyu?"

After saying that, he and Tang Qiuyu sat at the stone table under the pear tree.

"How did you know my name?" When Nangong Ruyu heard the other party calling out her name, she turned back to look at Xiaohua and said, "Sister Xiaohua, lock up this little rabbit."

After saying that, she put the rabbit in Xiaohua's arms, for fear that the previous few people would snatch her treasure.

"I also know that your grandfather is Nangong Xuanyuan and your aunt is Nangong Feiyan, right?"

Jiang Ruoyu looked at the cute elf in front of her and felt extremely happy.

"Hmm, are you here to find Yu'er or the master?" Nangong Ruyu couldn't help but relax her vigilance when she saw that the other party knew her family so well.

"I'm here to give you this." Jiang Ruoyu took out Nangong Ruyu and the identity gold medal and put them in his hands.

Nangong Ruyu took one look at the shiny gold medal and couldn't help but take it and look at it in her hands.

"There is another word here...ruyu? What does this mean? Why is there a golden phoenix behind it?"

Nangong Ruyu couldn't put it down at the moment, looked at Jiang Ruoyu and asked with a smile.

"This means that from now on, you will be the princess of the Five Domains Dynasty, and your name will be Princess Ruyu."

Jiang Ruoyu reached out and touched Nangong Ruyu's black hair, smiling lightly.

"My master really begged me for a princess? Oh my God, Xiaohua, I'm going to find the master and tell him the good news."

Nangong Ruyu didn't expect that Li Ye would actually beg a princess to come back to him in the imperial city.

"Don't worry yet. This sister is just like you. She is a princess of the imperial dynasty. From now on, you will call her Sister Wutong."

Jiang Ruoyu pulled Xia Wutong and said to Nangong Ruyu.

"Sister Princess, will Yu'er be a little princess like Sister Princess in the future?"

Although Nangong Ruyu was young, Li Ye still told her some of the rules and regulations in the imperial city. After all, it was lonely and boring in the mountains.

"From now on, my Yu'er is also a little princess!"

Before Jiang Ruoyu and Xia Wutong could reply, Li Ye's warm voice came from the door.
