The last carriage was a bit low-key, but it wasn't too different from the one behind. The other one was for a servant girl. The difference between them was like heaven and earth.

Compared to the hustle and bustle of the city outside, the inside of the carriage was even more lonely.

The State Protecting Temple was situated on top of a great cold mountain. The mountain peak was beautiful, the scenery beautiful.

The beautiful scenery of the State Protecting Temple, the nearby pavilions shining with the sunset, the world covered in ice and snow, and other such beautiful scenery, attracted countless other people other than pilgrims.

Even though the snow was blocking the way, on this day, there were still many people who came to State Protecting Temple to burn incense.

When they were a hundred meters away from the main hall of the State Protecting Temple, the carriage stopped, got off, and walked towards the ninety-nine steps.

Below the steps was a bustling market, and above the steps was a solemn and dignified Gu Sha.

In front of the ancient halberd was a vast expanse of flat land. There was a scarlet gold copper cauldron, and three thick incense sticks were inserted into it. The fragrance was pleasant and pleasant.

The incense of State Protecting Temple had the effect of calming one's mind and calming one's breathing. The Ji Qin normally recited a scripture in the manor, and the incense that was lit ablaze was the incense bought from the State Protecting Temple.

The incense rose in spirals, ending in the hubbub, returning to tranquility.

The Ping Bei Manor was used to having fifteen joss sticks in one's mouth. Ji Zhen and the others also frequently came with the old lady, so they recognized all the monks that were welcoming guests and brought them into the palace.

In the palace, the virtuous and the filial, kneeling in the midst of the sweet fragrance, sincerely begging the Buddha, Bodhisattva, for peace and security, for a smooth career, for freedom from misfortune, for a husband …

Bodhisattva lowered his head, welcoming kindness.

After the incense was given to the Pingbei Mansion, he would donate 20 taels of silver each month.

The marriage contract in State Protecting Temple was very popular. When a girl who wasn't married came to State Protecting Temple, she had to go to the Marriage Hall to ask for marriage.

Outside of the Marriage Hall, there was a Marriage Tree. Red silk was hung all over it. There were jade pendants being sold nearby, and most of them appeared in pairs. A mandarin duck and Tilly …

Stepping onto the stairs, Cui Er pointed to a stall on the other side, and said mysteriously, "I heard that the State Protecting Temple's mages' divination is very accurate, without asking for the birthday, without writing anything, and with a single glance, sever the hearts of people."

The Old Liu said disdainfully, "Definitely not."

In her previous life, wasn't her so-called blissful marriage just like Shui Yue and the flower in the mirror?

I wonder what her divination is in this life?

Ji Zhen then walked over and took out three taels of silver from his bosom and placed it in the censer in front of him.

In such a bustling place, he actually felt drowsy. Hearing the sound of money entering the furnace, the corner of his mouth curled up into a smile. Half a month had finally passed.

The old mage retracted his robe, and sat upright. He glanced at Ji Zhen, and was slightly startled, and smiled.

Ji Zhen was stunned by the old mage's actions.

It was for no other reason but because the old mage pointed to the signboard behind him. It was written in three taels of silver, and on the second side, there was ten gold.

"Miss, you don't have enough money." He patted his fortune plate and smiled.

Cui Er was furious, "This is the first time my lady has calculated, three silver is enough, how can she charge ten gold?"

"Your girl understands," he said.

An Ran controlled her emotions and said: "Cui Er, give him the money."

Cui Er's face turned white, but obediently handed the hundred taels of silver to him, and took back the three taels of silver. Her eyes were filled with hatred, if it wasn't for him saying that his family was not stained with the stench of copper, how could they be so greedy?

"Right. This bandit even passed wine and meat through his intestines. Lord Buddha's heart is still there." The old mage tucked the banknotes into his sleeves and mumbled softly.

"May I know how much the third divination is?" Ji Zhen casually asked.

The old mage patted the signboard again. There were only three words written on it: A divination is not more than three. When he flipped it over, there were two lines of small words: Test your past life, ask about the present life, and the future of Fuxiu.

Ji Zhen stared intently at the old mage's hands, his hands pressing down on two words: Doing good deeds with virtue. Then, the old mage began to doze off. With a light snoring sound, Ji Zhen laughed.

When they were far away from the stall, Old Liu complained, "Other people only need three copper coins for a divination, but he is a thousand times more expensive. No wonder there was a sparrow at the entrance!"

The street markets outside were bustling, and were not depressed at all due to the snow. The things on the small stalls were very cheap, and they could only be played with occasionally. Although this kind of thing was pretty, taking it out as a guest would ruin the reputation of Hou Mansion.

Most of the time, they would buy a pile and play with it for a few days before giving it to the maids beside them.

Ji Zhen liked sweets, especially the candied fruits. Every time she came back, he had to eat her fill.

Even the candy seller recognized her, as he welcomed her with a smile, "The girl changed to a girl by your side? Did you also give her a candy bar? "

Ji Zhen smiled and nodded. She picked a sugar-coated person and let Cui Er pick one herself, making Cui Er happy.

No matter how much Ji Zhen thought about it, he had to endure it. Otherwise, if she made people say that he had leaked the news, she would be punished. When they reached Merlin, there would be no one left to eat as much as she liked.

Ji Zhen strolled from the small stall to the small stall. If it was in the past, she would have bought some, but today, she didn't have much silver on him.

Seeing that there was a stall that sold books, Ji Zhen walked over. After walking for two steps, she stopped.

It was for no other reason but because the Second Prince, Xuan Yue, was standing in front of Ji Zhen. Why did he suddenly come here?

"What is it? You're looking at me in a daze? " At this time, Ji Zhen realized that the Cui Er who was following him had already disappeared, and there was no one familiar with her body anymore. Subconsciously, Ji Zhen reached out to grab the soft whip at his waist, but did not expect Xuan Yue to hold his hand. "Are you that afraid of me?"

"What about the Second Prince? You don't understand what I said last time, right? " Ji Zhen shook off Xuan Yue's hands, but was pulled fiercely into his embrace.

"Of course I don't understand, and I don't understand either." Xuan Yue rested his chin on Ji Zhen's head and said intimately.

"Don't move again. I'm afraid that if you move again, I won't be able to resist and eat you." Xuan Yue's breath burned the skin behind Ji Zhen's ears.
