Chapter 116 Du Shiniang (39)

Because the abbot was entertaining distinguished guests, Jing Wenfu didn't take Bai Lu to see the abbot, and went directly to the backyard of the east chamber.

"Peony is the favorite of spring, why ever envy peony." Bai Lu looked at the peony flowers blooming in the courtyard, and read obsessively.

Jing Wenfu embraced Bai Lu's shoulders, with a relaxed smile on his face, looking at the peony flowers, "The flowers of Chenming Temple are also famous in Shangjin City, the peach blossoms in early spring, the peonies in summer , the chrysanthemums in autumn, and the winter plums in winter, everything is unique."

"Wen Fu, I've never seen so many peonies, they're so beautiful." Bai Lu leaned against Jing Wenfu's arms, her gaze was still staring at those peonies without moving away.

"Lu'er likes it, so today is not in vain." Jing Wenfu held Bai Lu with one hand, and picked up a lock of her hair with the other hand, wrapping it around her fingertips.

Because there were distinguished guests in Chenming Temple, Jing Wenfu and Bai Lu couldn't eat the vegetarian food in the temple, so they had to eat some snacks they brought.

"I wanted to take you to enjoy the flowers, but everything has been messed up." Jing Wenfu held the teacup in his hand and took a sip, a little frustrated.

Bai Lu put her hand on his arm, and smiled at him, "No, I already feel that this trip is worthwhile to see such beautiful peony, and besides, it's better to go back earlier, we can have a good time together Let’s have dinner and some literary gifts, what do you think?”

The gloomy look on Jing Wenfu's face dissipated a little. He put down the teacup in his hand, took Bai Lu's hand and kissed it, "Lu'er is still caring."

Bai Lu lowered her head shyly, withdrew her held hand, cast a coquettish glance at Jing Wenfu, and turned around, "This is a temple, the Buddha is watching from the sky, don't mess around."

Jing Wenfu smiled indifferently, but did not cross the line after that.

When Bai Lu felt that the peony flowers were similar, Jing Wenfu led Bai Lu away. As soon as he arrived at the gate of the temple, he saw a group of people standing dirty, blocking the way out of the temple.

"Did something happen?" Bai Lu looked forward slightly, curious.

"Fu Ding." Jing Wenfu called out.

Fu Ding hurried forward, folded his hands and bent down, "What do you want, young master?"

Jing Wenfu raised his chin to the front, "Go and see what's going on."

"Yes." Fu Ding ordered, and immediately squeezed into the crowd in front.

"When Fu Ding comes back, you'll know what happened ahead." Jing Wenfu turned to Bai Lu and said.

After about half a cup of tea, Fu Ding ran back panting, with a somewhat excited expression on his face, "Young Master! Young Master! Who do you think the person in front is?"

Jing Wenfu was playing with Bai Lu's hair, and turned his head to glance at Fu Ding, "Which family is the nobleman?"

Fu Ding's body trembled unconsciously, and the expression on his face restrained a little, "It's the old lady of the Duke's mansion, who brought the young master to Chenming Temple to pray for Duke Shen."

"Is it the Duke's Mansion? No wonder those monks don't let idlers in." Jing Wenfu pondered for a while, then turned to ask Bai Lu beside him, "Does Lu'er know the origin of the Duke's Mansion?"

Bai Lu shook her head, "I don't know."

"This Shen Guogong was originally just a lieutenant general. He followed the late emperor to conquer the surrounding small countries. Later, he made countless contributions on the battlefield. He even saved the late emperor's life. He had a close relationship with the late emperor. The late emperor made an exception and made him a duke. However, the current emperor The attitude towards this Shen Guogong needs to be studied." Jing Wenfu looked at those people in front and narrowed his eyes slightly.

"How do you say that?" Bai Lu raised her head in doubt, Shen Guogong has such a deep friendship with the late emperor, so why does the current emperor have a bad attitude towards him?

Jing Wenfu approached Bai Lu and whispered in her ear, "No matter how sincere Shen Guogong is, it is for the late emperor. Naturally, the current emperor will not trust him lightly, so he is sent to guard the border, and his wife and children stay in Shangjincheng. It's a tie."

Bai Lu nodded knowingly, and at the same time became somewhat curious about Jing Wenfu's identity. He knew such hidden things, who exactly is Jing Wenfu?
