Li Fanming's letter soon appeared: "We were led astray by Zong Wude. The Zong family wanted to force him to break off relations with you. He didn't want to go back to the Zong family, but tricked us to Mount Tai, saying that since there is a custom of climbing mountains on Double Ninth Festival, we should climb Mount Tai! I know about your affairs. Even my stupid rabbit doesn't worry about you, so I don't have to worry about you. It's good to lose. It's not shameful to lose to the great scholar. It's shameful for the great scholar to win you! I won't say more. The side of a woman reminds me of my sister who married far away. I'm busy!"
"Beast!" Fang Yun replied with a smile.
On the way, Fang Yun kept accepting and replying to messages.
The journey was smooth as the number of people heading towards Yushan was far less than that towards the other four mountains, where the number of people going there numbered in the hundreds of thousands.
Unlike other ordinary cities, the holy temple in the capital is extremely powerful and covers a wide range.
The power range of the Holy Temple in an ordinary city is a few miles outside the city wall, but the power of the Holy Temple in the capital also covers many fortresses hundreds of miles away. Although the capital’s security is not as strict as Yuhai City, the power of the Holy Temple is even stronger.
The capital is also the only city in Jingguo that is suppressed by a semi-saint Zhenwen.
Yushan is a beautiful mountain ten miles away from the capital. An important condition for becoming a famous family in the capital is to have a villa in Yushan.
Any villa in Yushan is worth no less than 50,000 taels, and the largest villa is even worth tens of millions of taels.
After leaving the capital, Yushan Mountain was getting closer and closer. Fang Yun put everything else aside, held Yang Yuhuan's hand, and they looked at Yushan Mountain together in the carriage and talked in a low voice.
Yang Yuhuan said: "This mountain is similar to Jiling in Ji County."
"Well, the shapes are very similar." Actually, Fang Yun felt that there was a big difference in his heart, but since this matter was unimportant, he might as well go along with Yang Yuhuan's meaning. It is better to make one person happy than to make both of them unhappy.
The shape of the mountain is never as important as Yang Yuhuan's mood.
Yang Yuhuan added: "Well, seeing this mountain reminds me of your poem "Early Morning Walk in Ji County". Even a woman like me who doesn't understand poetry thinks it's really well written."
"Yeah. I don't care if others praise me, but when Sister Yuhuan praises me, I like it in my heart." Fang Yun said.
Yang Yuhuan smiled gently, her face full of happiness.
Nunu immediately stood up and pointed at himself with his little paws to ask for praise, but Fang Yun reached out and pressed him back into his arms.
Fang Yun continued to talk with Yang Yuhuan, and soon they arrived at the foot of Yushan Mountain, where tens of thousands of carriages were already parked.
Fang Yun jumped off the carriage first. When Yang Yuhuan was about to bend down to get off, Fang Yun stretched out his arms and held her horizontally in front of him. Then he bent down and slowly put her on the ground.
Yang Yuhuan let out a soft cry when she was picked up, then quickly covered her mouth.
After her feet landed on the ground, Yang Yuhuan kept her head down, her face red all the way to her neck.
Nunu walked around gracefully, looking up at Yang Yuhuan, curious about why she was shy. After thinking for a long time, she couldn't figure it out, so she simply jumped into Fang Yun's arms and cried to Yang Yuhuan, letting her see that she was being held by Fang Yun. She wasn't shy at all.
Fang Yun reached out to hold Yang Yuhuan's hand and walked forward slowly.
Yushan is shaded by green trees and has a beautiful environment. A green stone staircase winds up along the hillside until it disappears.
There were many strong men in thin clothes at the bottom of the stone steps, with some chairs beside them.
Fang Yun looked up and saw that there were hundreds of people climbing up, but only a dozen were sitting on chairs.
Many porters were sitting at the foot of the mountain, worried.
Fang Yun pulled Yang Yuhuan towards a four-person chair. As they walked, he said, "You are weak, so go sit on a four-person chair, which is more stable than a two-person chair."
Yang Yuhuan hastily refused: "No! Why spend so much money? Besides, how can I be embarrassed to let someone carry me? I'm not an official."
"Why, do you want me to carry you up?" Fang Yun said.
"This is even more unacceptable!" Yang Yuhuan stared at Fang Yun nervously, fearing that Fang Yun would really carry her up. If this really happened, she didn't know how many people would accuse the two of them of being disrespectful.
"Since this one is even less possible, you can only choose the former." Fang Yun said with a smile.
Yang Yuhuan shook her head repeatedly and said, "I'm not a young lady. I'm not used to being carried by others. They are quite pitiful."
Fang Yun said sternly, "They don't need pity. They are paid for their efforts, just like the officials, merchants, farmers and workers. If you insist on pitying them, then let me ask you, is it better to let them wait here for a day and go back hungry, or to select four of them, let them work for their efforts in exchange for rewards, and go back to feed and clothe their families?"
Yang Yuhuan was stunned, then smiled and said, "Xiaoyun has really grown up and understands things that her sister doesn't understand. Okay, I understand."
At this time, a cold voice came from behind.
"I'll also choose a four-person chair."
Fang Yun looked back curiously and saw a woman wearing a black veil standing there. Her entire face was covered by the black veil, so he couldn't see her appearance clearly, but he vaguely felt that this woman was very imposing.
"Yes!" A middle-aged man who looked like a butler immediately took the woman in black veil to look for a chair.
Fang Yun looked at the woman again, then took Yang Yuhuan to a chair, negotiated a price with the four people, and then went up the mountain together.
Although the four-person chair was stable, it was still shaking. Yang Yuhuan held the armrest with her right hand and held Fang Yun tightly with her left hand.
The official seal of Marquis Wen kept moving slightly, but Fang Yun paid no attention to it because it was not an urgent letter. He kept holding Yang Yuhuan's hand tightly and chatting with her with a smile.
“Sister Yuhuan, I remember you were very courageous, why are you so timid now?”
"It's swaying, I'm a little scared." Yang Yuhuan's voice was a little timid, and she wanted to take back her left hand.
Fang Yun held her hand tightly and smiled, "It's okay, I'm here, you don't have to be afraid. Look at Nunu and Xiao Liuxing, they are so heartless."
Yang Yuhuan followed Fang Yun's gaze and saw Nunu running up and down the stone stairs like a puppy.
Little Meteor is even more playful. He first flies quickly to the high steps, then rolls down along the stairs, while Nunu follows behind with a smile and tries to catch him.
People nearby often smile knowingly, it is really a good thing to have such a cute little animal accompany you on the hiking trip.
Fang Yun looked back and saw the masked woman in black veil looking at the little fox. The previous aura was gone, and she looked like an ordinary woman.
The woman suddenly turned her head and looked towards Yushan Mountain in the distance.
The Yushan stairs not only spread upwards, but also spread to the sides, forming roads leading to independent courtyards. Each courtyard is surrounded by lush trees, quiet and mysterious.
Fang Yun withdrew his gaze, continued to hold Yang Yuhuan and chat with her.
Soon, they reached the top of the mountain. Fang Yun paid the money, thanked the four porters, and walked forward with Yang Yuhuan.
The top of Yushan Mountain is very wide, surrounded by some buildings and houses, and in the middle is a huge square, where tens of thousands of people are waiting for the literary meeting to begin. (To be continued...)
