Crossing the Unknown Country

Chapter 493: Meeting the Ninth Prince

They argued fiercely, and finally Su He Niang made the final decision and said that they should go to worship together tomorrow and go boating to relax. The three brothers also needed to relax after the exam, and the whole family followed to relax.

This time, there were about twenty people including the master, so they asked the servant to charter a boat that could seat twenty people, so that everyone could go boating on the lake together easily.

The next morning, they took the incense they had bought and some fruits and snacks as offerings and went to the temple together.

The temple was already very popular, and it was even more popular these days. Many students came to burn incense and pray for blessings. Many people came to worship with a pious heart, believing that it was better to believe it than not to believe it.

Su He firmly believed that her time travel broke the previous atheism, otherwise it could not be explained.

Su He followed his family into the main hall and knelt down to worship. There were too many people, so they had to go in in batches and kowtow to each god and Buddha.

After Su He finished bowing, she looked up at the solemn and majestic Buddha statue, hoping that he would bless the world and her family. She hoped that she could live a smooth and peaceful life without war and poverty.

Su He's brothers all bowed sincerely, hoping that the three brothers could pass the imperial examination this time, so that the Su family could rely on them for peace and happiness. Only by passing the imperial examination could they enter the official career and give full play to their talents.

Su He went out first and bought some red ribbons, wrote her wishes on them, and waited for her brothers to come out and tie them to the branches of the big banyan tree. There were so many red ribbons tied to the tall and dense tree that the branches were already full.

Su Feng watched everyone walk out of the temple together, and said with a smile: "We have already worshipped the Buddha sincerely. Now it's time to stroll around this street..."

Su He smiled and agreed, "Today is my treat, everyone, eat and drink to your heart's content!..."

Su Pei smiled and said, "That's great. Su He is a small rich man. We don't have to be polite..."

The Su He masters also joked, "Then just eat the meat! This is the most delicious..."

"I see there are some meat buns there, they smell good..."

"Let's go buy some wine and dumplings. Dumplings go well with wine, and the more you drink, the better..."

Su He's father looked at Su He and said, "It's not too late to regret now. Dad can pay for you..."

Su He waved her hand forward and said, "This is a rare opportunity. Money is earned to be spent. It doesn't matter who spends it. Besides, they are all family members..."

She was speaking passionately when she suddenly heard someone behind her say, "Am I considered one of us? Can I be invited?"

Su He turned her head. Aren't these the Ninth Prince and his men? When she saw that there were more than a dozen followers, her heart was bleeding.

Who made her so outspoken today and speak out in public? This is her retribution. If her family spent her money, she wouldn't feel bad, but the Ninth Prince couldn't! But she couldn't refuse the invitation.

She gritted her teeth and said, "Why are you here? We are partners, so of course we are family. Let's go together. I'll take care of it today."

The Ninth Prince felt amused when he saw her pained expression, but he didn't show it. He smiled and said, "Let's go. I have the boat ready. Xiao Su He will treat us to food and drinks on the boat today!"

Su He murmured, "We have prepared the boat. Can we separate for a while?" She didn't want to follow the Ninth Prince from the bottom of her heart. She simply didn't like the imperial power.

The Ninth Prince wanted to laugh in his heart, but he said, "Our ship is big enough. We finally met, so let's be together!"

Su He's father said at this time: "I asked the servant to withdraw over there, and I will go with the Ninth Prince. I have been thinking about meeting him to thank him!"

As soon as they said that, everyone else followed the Ninth Prince onto the boat. As soon as they saw the boat, they knew what luxury meant. The boat was decorated with carved beams and painted buildings, and it was exquisite and elegant. The maids on board were all as beautiful as fairies. They came to greet the Ninth Prince gracefully and knelt down to welcome him.

Su He then remembered that he had not bowed to the Ninth Prince just now. Was it because he was too familiar with him to remember? In fact, Su He was unwilling to kneel down, so he deliberately ignored it.
