Chapter 68 Downhill

I didn’t expect that the bluestone slab would also involve the palace. What kind of evil ghost happened in the palace more than 20 years ago? Things are getting more and more complicated. It’s not something that a kid like me can figure out. Maybe I should look for an opportunity.

Meet my grandfather.

"In this case, how come the bluestone slab got into the hands of the second house and is still in the Marquis's mansion?" Xuan Bao had an idea in his mind, but on the surface he looked surprised.

The holy monk spread his hands and expressed that he was also innocent: "There is a cause and a result. If necessary, I can go down the mountain with you and collect that thing."

"No need." Xuan Bao refused without hesitation.

"Isn't this why you went up the mountain?" The old monk finally figured it out, "Why did you refuse again?"

"I don't think it's appropriate to accept the bluestone at this time." Xuan Bao frowned, "When necessary, I'll ask you to go down the mountain again."

"That's fine."

At this time, there was a noise outside, and the voices mixed with it sounded familiar to Xuan Bao. The second brother and the others were looking for him.

"A poor monk doesn't see outsiders."

Xuan Bao immediately understood what the old monk meant, immediately stood up and saluted him, strode out of the door, turned around and closed the two doors knowingly.

Looking up, not far from the cloister, Xiao Kexiao and the others, plus Luo Yilan and their three masters and servants, nearly ten people came over in a mighty manner. The two young novices who wanted to stop them couldn't stop them at all.

"Miss Seventh." Xia Yu was the first to notice and shouted happily.

"Shh." Xuan Bao made a silent gesture to signal to leave.

Seeing Xuan Bao, Xiao Kexiao breathed a sigh of relief. Standing next to her was Luo Yilan, an only daughter with no brothers or sisters. She couldn't help but look envious when she saw this.

Approaching, Xuan Bao saluted the two novice monks as an apology, and they both smiled in return.

After leading a group of people farther away, Xuan Bao stopped and said, "Second brother, don't worry, I'm just going to meet the old Taoist master's old friend."

"The monk took us to burn incense. Brother Xiao accidentally saw the abbot passing by but not seeing you. He became anxious. We just walked with him around the temple looking for you. When we walked to the corridor

I was stopped by two young masters." Luo Yilan explained the matter clearly in a few words.

Xuan Bao grinned and said, "It's my fault for not making it clear to my second brother in advance."

"It's fine." Xiao Kexiao looked at Xuan Bao up and down and felt relieved.

"Let's go, I'm going to offer incense to the Bodhisattva." Seeing that his second brother was full of questions, Xuan Bao immediately changed the subject.

After all, Luo Yilan is an outsider, and this is not the place to talk. Xiao Kexiao quickly realized,

After offering incense, a group of people went down the mountain. Xuan Bao had something on his mind and didn't talk much. Xiao Kexiao was a person who didn't talk much. Luo Yilan didn't talk much as a boudoir girl. They walked quietly to the halfway up the mountain and parked the car.

place.

Luo Yilan's heart skipped a beat when she saw the Xiao family's carriage. She had long seen that the Xiao family brothers and sisters were either rich or noble, but when she saw their carriage, she was shocked to realize that maybe their true identity was greater than she imagined.

The middle ones are even more noble.

"Miss Xiao, Mr. Xiao, you saved me today. I will go back and report to my father. I will come to say thank you another day."

"It's easy, no need for it." Xiao Kexiao refused without hesitation.

Luo Yilan lowered her head to hide her embarrassment and sadness. Xuan Bao noticed it and took over with a smile: "Sister Luo, where is your mansion? I will visit you when I leave the mansion another day."

"Kyoto Prefecture." Luo Yilan replied softly.

Xuan Bao turned to Xiao Kexiao, "Do you know where the Kyoto mansion is, brother?"

Xiao Kexiao reacted immediately: "Master Luo, the governor of Kyoto, is yours?"

"My young lady is the only daughter of Lord Yin Luo of Kyoto." Luo Yilan's maid bowed and replied.

"Oh." Xiao Kexiao replied lightly and then Gonggong turned around first.

"Sister Luo, goodbye." Xuan Bao said and turned around and walked towards his carriage.

Watching the Xiao family's two carriages galloping away, Luo Yilan sighed quietly and then turned around and got into the carriage.

Xuan Bao slumped down on the seat as soon as she got in the car. Dong Xue and Xia Yu waited on her and drank a few sips of tea before bringing out the snacks they had prepared.

"You two can ask whatever you want. Don't you feel uncomfortable holding it back like this?"

Xia Yuxiao asked: "Miss Qi, do you think Miss Luo is very good."

"Very beautiful." Xuan Bao answered the question inappropriately.

Dongxue immediately understood what her seventh lady meant: "It just looks pleasing to the eye, but you can't say whether it's good or not?"

"Well, Dongxue is getting smarter and smarter after following me." Xuan Bao's face was full of embarrassment, "Guess again why I asked her whose girl she is?"

"I know." Xia Yu rushed to answer, "It's because of the second young master."

Touching his nose, Xuan Bao was a little uninterested: "I thought I was the only one who could tell that Sister Luo has a crush on the second brother."

Xia Yu automatically thought, "Isn't it normal for the second young master to be a hero and save the beauty, so the beauty wants to marry him?"

"You've watched too many dramas." Xuan Bao poured cold water on him, "I don't think my second brother is that interested."

"Stop talking about this. Talking openly will cause trouble." Dongxue warned.

Besides, Xiao Kexiao was sitting in the carriage thinking. He didn't believe that Xuanbao was just visiting Tianlong Temple. From the words of the abbot at the door, it could be inferred that she came specifically to see the sacred monk.

The divine monk does not meet people easily, even if the emperor wants to meet him, it is not easy, but Xuan Bao meets him. Is it really because he and her old Taoist master are old friends?

Xuan Bao chatted and laughed with the two maids for a while and then leaned on the seat and fell asleep. The little baby had his eyes closed but his little mind was spinning non-stop.

I originally thought that meeting the divine monk would solve the problem, but I didn't expect it to become even more chaotic. My grandfather, who had been dead for more than 20 years, also got involved, and even the palace was implicated. Xuan Bao was under great pressure. How could such a complicated matter be solved?

On the bed, she just wanted to be a little baby in peace.

His stomach suddenly growled, and Xuan Bao remembered that it was already past afternoon when they set out in the morning. They had only eaten some snacks but had not yet eaten lunch.

"Second brother, second brother. Find a place to eat, I'm so hungry." Xuan Bao shouted as he raised the car curtains.

Being reminded by Xuan Bao, Xiao Kexiao secretly scolded himself for being too careless. Looking at the sun, it should have passed noon, so it was already past lunch time.

Lifting the curtains of the car and taking a look, Xiao Kexiao told the driver: "Stop at Juweilou ahead."

With the support of Dong Xue and Xia Yu, Xuan Bao jumped out of the carriage and looked up at the three-story restaurant with expectation on her face.

"Second brother, this restaurant is so big, should we go there to have dinner?"

"Juweilou is a famous old restaurant in the capital. Come on, go in and have a look. You can eat whatever you want. My second brother is treating you."

Xiao Kexiao took Xuan Bao's hand and walked forward. It seemed that he hadn't been here for several years, so he didn't know if the food was the same as before.

It was really good. Xuan Bao looked around with great interest. Such a beautiful tavern was an eye-opener for her.

"Oh, no wonder the magpies screamed early in the morning. What kind of wind brought the little Xuanbao here today?"
