Lin Mengya winked at Bai Ji, who immediately opened the door and went out to check.
The sound of the Taoist shouting became increasingly clear.
Fortunately, there were guards from the palace guarding the carriage, but for a while, the civilians were still unable to get close.
"Master, they are refugees outside the city. They gathered around the incense-burning carriage and begged for food. The servants took the initiative and asked the guards to take half of the cotton clothes and grains and distribute them in the alms shed in front."
Bai Ji was a quick-thinking girl. She knew that the refugees came from poor families, so she ordered the guards in the house not to make things difficult for them.
"Well, very good, concubine, what do you think?"
Empress De Fei nodded, she was a bodhisattva-hearted person, and she would always bring something to donate when she came out to offer incense.
"Your girl did a good job. Originally, these things were given to the poor. Now someone comes to ask for them. How can we not give them to them?"
Lin Mengya quietly lifted the curtain of the carriage and saw civilians in ragged clothes outside, thoughtfully.
What they can do is nothing more than a drop in the bucket. If they want to eradicate poverty in this country, it cannot be reversed with the power of one person.
Those in power only know how to support each other and fight for power, but they have forgotten that the root of this country is these refugees.
The refugees were led to the alms shed by the food and cotton clothes, and the carriage continued to move forward proudly.
Today is a good day for offering incense. Early in the morning, the foot of the mountain is packed with carriages of dignitaries who come to offer incense.
Fortunately, Empress Dowager De was a frequent visitor to the temple, and there were already waiting young novices standing at the door looking forward to her arrival.
"The empress is polite, the monk's name is Qingyue, and the empress's compassionate heart is touching."
The little novice monk was only sixteen or seventeen years old. He had a round face, delicate eyebrows, and was wearing a simple monk's robe. He was quite smart.
"Young master, you are polite."
Concubine De clasped her hands together, bowed, and followed the little master up the stone stairs of the mountain temple.
"Bai Zhi, you stay here and look after the carriage. Bai Zhi will go to the temple with me. If anything happens, send someone to find me."
Baiji nodded and stayed in the carriage.
There were many people coming to worship Buddha, even though Lin Mengya and Concubine De were the most noble among them.
But in this bustling place, how can one care about one's status and dignity
In a short time, Lin Mengya and Bai Zhi fell behind, separated by a few pilgrims who came to offer incense.
Except for the novice monks in the temple, all the servants and servants stayed at the foot of the mountain.
Although Lin Mengya was beautiful, she was dressed plainly, so she did not attract anyone's attention.
The ancient temple was quiet and beautiful, and Aunt Jingyue told Concubine De that she could move around as she pleased.
Leading Bai Zhi, the two of them found an empty space and walked to the back hill of the mountain temple.
There are also a lot fewer people here, mostly young ladies and ladies from various families, but they just think it's quiet here.
"Master, come here to sit and rest. If I had known there were so many people in the temple, I would rather stay at home and look after the house."
With a cute little face on her face, Bai Zhi took out the snack box hidden in her arms.
The delicate and elegant box of plum blossom mahogany contained a dozen tea cakes of various colors hidden inside.
Picking one up and stuffing it into his mouth, a satisfied smile appeared on his little face.
"Oh, you! You really can eat wherever you go. I think I'll have to find you a husband who can make snacks in the future. Otherwise, you won't be able to make other people poor!"
Lin Mengya nodded Bai Zhi's head. When she was a child, she didn't think this guy was so greedy.
Perhaps she suffered too much at the Zhennan Hou Mansion. This girl was so arrogant that when she arrived at Prince Yu's Mansion, she would eat and drink without any courtesy.
"Miss, you bought this box for me, didn't you? This is called gluttony. By the way, I heard in the past few days that the eldest young master will return to Beijing soon!"
Young Master? Lin Mengya's mind immediately reflected a gentle and handsome face.
The smile on the corner of his mouth was also filled with warmth.
The eldest brother has been guarding the border with his father for three years. Now, is he finally coming back
"It's all my fault. After all this time, I still don't know how to send a message to my father and brother."
Even if she was writing a letter, she didn't know who to entrust it to.
When she was in Zhennanhou's mansion, Shangguan Qing strictly prohibited her from contacting the outside world. Otherwise, how could the queen's conspiracy be accomplished so easily.
"You can't blame me, miss. It's the madam who doesn't want you to contact the outside world. Who stole my snack box!"
Bai Zhi's voice was filled with indignation, her apricot eyes and brows raised as she looked at the person who had snatched away her snack box.
"What is this? It's very interesting. Why don't you give it to me?"
The man is tall and tall, with a high nose and a bit of unruly handsomeness.
Although he was dressed like a noble nobleman, the man's appearance showed that he was not from the Jin Dynasty.
"I won't give it to you! The lady gave it to me, please give it back to me!"
Bai Zhi was absolutely furious. Normally, this little snack box was her life, and no one else could touch it easily.
Now it was taken away by a strange man, and the greedy little loli instantly turned into a food-protecting tyrannosaurus.
"My lord, a gentleman does not take what others like, not to mention that this gadget is the favorite of my maid. I'm afraid it wouldn't be good if you took it away."
A clear voice, polite but firm.
The man looked at Lin Mengya and saw that she was a little girl who was not as tall as his chest, so he immediately ignored her.
After changing hands, she actually put the box into her arms. Bai Zhi almost pounced on him and fought with him.
"This is one tael of silver, so I bought the box."
Arrogantly, he took out a piece of silver from his arms, threw it to Bai Zhi, turned around and left.
"Eh-you took my little girl's things, patted her butt and wanted to leave?"
A joking voice sounded, and Qinghu, dressed in guard clothes, suddenly appeared.
With a kiss in front of the man, Bai Zhi took out Bai Zhi's snack box in his hand.
"Here, take it."
Qinghu and Bai Zhi are dim sum acquaintances, and they have the same understanding of food as gods.
"What a beautiful kung fu. I don't want the box anymore. How about you come and compete with me?"
Lin Mengya pulled Bai Zhi and stepped aside. That man was quite a freak.
Although Lin Mengya couldn't understand the so-called martial arts moves, she could feel that the man was being beaten by Qinghu.
"Just don't beat him to death. After the beating, leave one tael of silver for others to treat their illnesses."
After finishing her words coldly, Lin Mengya left the one tael of silver on the ground.
He turned around and left with Bai Zhi, but behind him came the strange man's various screams.
"You can't slap me in the face!"
"You Dajin people are so shameless, why do you just hit others in the face?"
"Ah! My face!"
Deserve it!
Walking along the mountain road, Lin Mengya soon reached the halfway point of the mountain.
There are already few people here, but fortunately, there is Bai Zhi accompanying me.
Qinghu seemed to have made some kind of deal with Long Tianyu. He stayed in his yard all day long, and everyone turned a blind eye.
Qinghu secretly accompanies him when he goes in and out.
If he hadn't met this weirdo today, Qinghu wouldn't have shown up so easily.
"Miss, that guy is really bad. Wow, all my snacks were damaged!"
Bai Zhi was about to cry without tears, holding her snack box, but the sensitive Lin Mengya's body tensed up in the next second.
There are people gathering around!
Although it was not as good as a martial arts master's hearing and positioning, Lin Mengya didn't know why, but her five senses were different from ordinary people.
Sure enough, vaguely, many masked men in black emerged from the woods.
Lin Mengya turned her beautiful eyes and looked at the person in front of her with caution. The person who came was not good.
"Who are you? This is the princess of Prince Yu's Mansion, so you must not be rude!"
Before she could stop her, Bai Zhi revealed Lin Mengya's true identity.
These people are clearly here for me, so what can they do if they reveal their identity as the princess
"take away!"
The men in black were well-trained and surrounded Lin Mengya, wanting to catch her.
But at this time, Qinghu was not by her side, so Lin Mengya had no choice but to surrender.
"Wait a minute, since you know my identity, don't go too far."
Lin Mengya pulled Bai Zhi, but quietly dropped the snack box in her hand.
After Qinghu teaches that person a lesson, he will definitely come looking for her.
Hope, he can understand what he means.
"I'm sorry, Princess Yu."
The leader of the men in black slashed hard at Lin Mengya's neck. Instantly, after a dull pain, Lin Mengya fell into the darkness.
The feeling of not being in control of the body is very bad.
The first feeling I felt when I woke up from the darkness was that my hands and feet were tightly tied up.
Maintaining even breathing, Lin Mengya's eyes opened slightly.
There was the sound of horse hooves hitting the ground outside. Although it was very small, Lin Mengya could still distinguish it.
There was a very hard touch underneath her body. It seemed that she was on a carriage.
Taking advantage of the bumpy posture, Lin Mengya looked around. Except for Bai Zhi, who was lying in the corner like her, it seemed that there was no one else.
Where on earth are these people taking her
"Angelica dahurica, angelica dahurica, wake up."
Lowering her voice, Lin Mengya touched Bai Zhi. Fortunately, she just passed out.
Bai Zhi also slowly woke up, and Lin Mengya covered her mouth in time to prevent her from screaming.
"Shh, keep your voice down, we're on the carriage now."
Bai Zhi nodded, and her eyes widened in fear. Fortunately, it was the young lady who was covering her, otherwise, she would have definitely bitten him down.
Inside the carriage, it was sealed tightly.
Even the windows were nailed shut, so although they didn't feel stuffy, it was extremely difficult for them to escape.
What are the origins of this group of people
