Chapter 242: The Postman at the Foot of the Mountain

The carriage drove smoothly through the long street, and when it reached the gate of the imperial capital, the road seemed much wider and there were not so many people.

The coachman asked in a low voice outside: "Your Majesty, would you like me to go faster?"

I looked at the sky outside and nodded: "Hurry up, otherwise the sun will be shining by noon."

The coachman then raised his whip and whipped it out in the air with a crisp sound, and the two horses in front of him ran forward steadily.

I looked at the wide and flat road in front of me and admired: "It is worthy of being in the imperial capital at the feet of the Emperor. Even the roads in the suburbs are so wide."

The caravan was not qualified to go on the official roads, but the civilian roads were bumpy and bumpy, and it was especially muddy when it rained, making it really difficult.

The road in front of us is made of loess, which is flat and solid. Although it is not as good as the official road, which uses water to cleanse the dust, it is still very convenient and easy to walk.

The coachman's voice came from outside: "What the nobles don't know is that Qingxuan Temple is a good place that every household in the city wants to go to. Therefore, during the holidays, the rich and powerful jointly invest in repairing and leveling this road."

"This is also greatly appreciated by the gods in the temple."

I was a little surprised, thinking that these people came here not only to be praised by the gods in the temple, but also because these rich people couldn't adapt to the bumpy and shaking when traveling by themselves.

However, no matter what the reason is, the smooth and wide roads are very convenient for the people, and it is indeed a good deed.

From this we can see that Qingxuan Temple is really a good place to go. If I really have the ability, I would also like to spend some time practicing in the temple.

only……

Xiaolian was a little worried: "I don't know if ghosts like Lantern and I are allowed."

I thought for a moment: "It doesn't matter. We met the Taoist priest of Qingxi Temple in Zhu Mansion before. He is very open-minded and open-minded. He doesn't mind this."

From a glance at the writings, we can see that today's Taoist priests do not stick to these things.

What's more, even if they have a grudge, the worst case scenario is that I will take them away. With Bai Xuan here, there is no need to be afraid of anyone.



The road was flat and the horses ran very fast, but they arrived at the foot of the mountain in just over an hour.

At this moment, the coachman looked at the majestic mountain in front of him with admiration: "Noble sir, the carriage can only go so far."

"We are going up the mountain next. Do we need a couple of postmen to go to our inn next to us? They have lived at the foot of the mountain for generations and are familiar with going up the mountain. They are better than the guards in our house."

"No need-"

Before I finished speaking, I saw a group of father and son with thin faces squatting at the door of the inn, looking at this side eagerly, with longing in their eyes.

I sighed secretly in my heart and then waved. I saw the middle-aged man first shocked, then ecstatic. He quickly wiped his palms on the hem of his clothes and then ran all the way over.

"I think these two people are destined to me, so I asked them to carry me up the mountain."

The driver was stunned for a moment, and then he responded:

"It all depends on your arrangement."

But he still sighed: "If I had known this, I would have brought the special sedan here. The inns here are used by ordinary people."

"fine."

I looked at the soft sedan carried by the father and son. Although it was made of simple rattan, it felt particularly refreshing to sit on it in the summer.

At this moment, under the shade of a tree at the foot of the mountain, the two of them eagerly asked for a bowl of water from the store, then wiped the wicker chair again and again, and then asked me: "Your Excellency, please sit down."

"Our father and son have been on this mountain for twenty or thirty years, and we are the most secure."

I nodded, then pinned the lantern to the wicker chair and opened the black umbrella.

A faint cool breeze blew by, and the two of them couldn't help showing a look of comfort.
