When I am connected with the prince of the same life

Chapter 12 Hand Warmers

The ordinary days are like running water, passing by in a hurry.

In the past few days, Cheng Muqing went to Jingyuan every day.After several days of contact, the relationship with Lin Heng has also eased.At least, he can take medicine obediently.

In addition, Cheng Muqing did not forget to send Jinxi to find an "expert".But before Jinxi could find her, her natal family posted a post inviting her to Linyin Temple.

Linyin Temple can also be regarded as an imperial temple.After the current sage unified the world two years ago, he began to build Buddhist temples and gymnasiums everywhere.In order to pursue longevity, he often entrusts people to make alchemy and sends envoys to find the world of longevity.

Coincidentally, there is an eminent monk in Linyin Temple named "Master of Enlightenment".

Since everyone calls him a master, he must be an expert, and maybe he can see the problems between her and Lin Heng.

So in this misty day, when the air was so cold that it was hard to breathe, Cheng Muqing went out with Lin Heng on his shoulders.

Carry, yes, just carry.

The girl will carry the boy who is thinner than her, and walk to the door step by step under the surprised eyes of the crowd, and get into the carriage.

The horses are delicate and the carriages are luxurious.The walls of the compartment were covered with soft leather, and a layer of warmth was also made.In the middle of the carriage, there is a small square coffee table with hot tea poured on it.

Cheng Muqing hugged Lin Heng's waist and placed him firmly on the wooden board.

"Cough, cough, cough..." The cold air sucked into his lungs, making him cough uncontrollably.Lin Heng's complexion was as pale as paper, and his phoenix eyes gleamed with tears.

"Jinxi, bring some clothes?" Cheng Muqing said quickly when he saw that he was coughing badly and his expression was not good.

Lin Heng held back his cough, and an abnormal blush gradually appeared on his face.

"My lord, go into the carriage." Cheng Muqing raised the curtain of the carriage, hugged his slender waist with the other hand, and led him into the carriage.

Entering the carriage, Lin Heng sat down by the fireplace.

Cheng Muqing took two thick sable fur cloaks from Jinxi.She put the cloak on him and pulled up the collar for him.

Lin Heng is like a rag doll, letting her control herself.

Cheng Muqing was only satisfied when he successfully transformed Lin Heng into a graceful and fat man, "Human, I just want to be fatter. Thick flesh, so I won't be afraid of the cold!"

Thick flesh is not easy to die!

At this moment, Lin Heng's fair face was already buried in the mink fur on his clothes, and he looked cute and cute.

The past few days have not been pleasant to get along with each other.Except at first because she "cheated" on him, he was very dissatisfied.And now that he doesn't want to go out, she carries it out.Other than that, he was like a puppet for her to play with.

Because it is in the city, the carriage does not travel fast.

Along the way, Lin Heng quietly leaned against the inner wall of the carriage as usual.His eyes were downcast, most of his face was buried in the furry collar.

He was so alone, as if isolated from the world.

Cheng Muqing pursed her lips, remembering what he once said, that she was kind to him only because she had a life bond with him.

Thinking about it now, he should be very lonely, right?

"My lord, no matter whether we can solve the problem this time, I will treat you well." Cheng Muqing said, "I will find you a few more servants and let them accompany you."

Lin Heng didn't reply.

A long time ago, someone said, "I will visit you often and bring you delicious food next time."

But it was only a month, and after a month, he never saw her again.

……

Linyin Temple is built on a mountain outside the capital. The mountain is so tall and densely forested that it is said to be a spiritual mountain.

The carriage parked in an open space, because it belonged to the palace, no one dared to approach it.

Cheng Muqing jumped out of the carriage, turned around and went to help Lin Heng.

The girl's fingers were slender and slender, her skin was a bit rough, and there was a thick callus on the tiger's mouth.Lin Heng silently put the hand warmer in his hand on it.

"What are you doing?" Cheng Muqing smiled, "Give me a hand warmer?"

Lin Heng stared at her blankly, not knowing what to say for a moment.

"Come on." Cheng Muqing switched hands to hold him, "I'll support you, come down slowly."

Lin Heng felt that her hands were warmer than a stove.

Helping him off the carriage, Cheng Muqing stuffed the hand warmer into his arms again.Immediately, he turned around and walked towards the sedan chairs of Marquis Wu'an and the Duke of England not far away.

Dow and Tao Yushan bowed to the couple.

Her mother is the legitimate daughter of the British government. She is of noble birth and is very well-behaved.My grandfather used to be the Taifu, and my uncle is now a prince, and he is the censor of Zuodu in the court.Tao Yushan is her uncle's legitimate daughter and also the prospective princess.Cheng Muqing grew up with her since she was a child. They are both close friends and cousins.

After all, Cheng Muqing knew the rules when he was away from home.She held the two of them up in a serious manner, and smiled at them gently, like a dignified and virtuous nobleman.

"Why did you bring the prince here?" Tao Shi looked at her with reproachful eyes, "The prince is still ill."

"Your girl, the injury on my head is not healed either." Cheng Muqing muttered softly, "Why don't you see that you care about me?"

"I think you are very healthy, you almost ran over just now." Tao frowned, "As Princess Qi, you have to pay attention to your every move..." She started nagging.

Cheng Muqing bowed his head and dared not speak.

She has followed her father's temper since she was a child, and likes to be unrestrained, go to the house to expose tiles, and wield knives and guns.From childhood to adulthood, there are five members of the family, and she is criticized by her mother all day long.As the only daughter of the Marquis of Wu'an's mansion, she is naturally the key object of care in the eyes of her mother.

Therefore, she was still very afraid of her mother.

The road leading to the temple on the mountain is very long, with large and wide steps.It may be because the Chinese New Year is approaching, and the mountain roads are full of pedestrians.

The mountain is surrounded by white clouds, and there are rhythmic bells from the ancient temple.

The temple is made of mahogany, layer by layer, and at a glance, it is tall and solemn.

There is a famous woman standing at the gate of the temple. The woman is young and dressed as a woman.And beside her was an elderly middle-aged woman.At this moment, the middle-aged woman was raising her hand to beat her on the head.

It looked like a mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, Cheng Muqing secretly came to a conclusion in his heart.

"How can the child be lost?" The middle-aged mother-in-law stretched out her index finger and nodded her daughter-in-law's head, "What's the use of my son marrying you? You are so cute, you can't do anything, and you lost the child! When I go home, I will let my son sleep about you!"

"Mother!" The daughter-in-law was obviously frightened, she thumped and knelt on the ground, "No, mother, please give me another chance! Mother! Mother... Anyway, go find the child now..."

The two stood at the gate of the temple, and many people around looked at the excitement.

Cheng Muqing raised his eyes while going up the steps.She has a serious face, but she complains in her heart, what's the use of gathering here if she doesn't hurry to find the child?

Compared to what she was muttering in her heart, Tao Yushan was much more direct.

"This mother-in-law is really interesting. She is not in a hurry to find a child. Instead, she performed a show for us passers-by that a mother-in-law divorces a son for a son. So that our group of people will not be bored on the way to incense." Tao Yushan's voice was not loud, but it spread lightly into the ears of the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law.

The mother-in-law knew she was being sarcastic as soon as she heard it. Just as she was about to scold someone, she found that the little girl was dressed luxuriously, and there were several servants behind her.

This is probably a wealthy family, she can't afford to mess with it.The breath she just mentioned immediately made her swallow again.The mother-in-law looked around, only to realize that there were spectators all around, and the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law became a laughing stock.

"Go!" The mother-in-law grabbed her daughter-in-law's hair and pulled her away.

"Mom! Don't go, we're going to find the baby..." the woman cried.

"What are you looking for?" The mother-in-law dragged her, "Don't be ashamed of yourself here!"

"Have you ever seen such a tall girl?" Seeing that she didn't help her, the woman turned her head to look at other pilgrims passing by, "Round face, a little dark, a little thin..."

"It turned out that it was a girl who was lost, no wonder the mother-in-law didn't care at all." Tao Yushan lowered her eyebrows slightly, "It's so pitiful, if such a big child falls into the hands of human traffickers... there is a high probability that she will be bought as a child bride."

Cheng Muqing has also heard of this.There are some poor families who can't marry a decent wife, so they will spend money to buy a girl as a wife.This kind of abducted child is not expensive to sell.Traffickers don't think these girls are human beings, they only see objects and interests.

Girls are sold to be daughters-in-law, and boys are bought to be the sons of those who have no offspring or disabled, and let him beg along the street.

There are many places where, seeing that the baby is a daughter, they will abandon it.This has also led to an imbalance in the ratio of men to women here, and many men are still unable to marry a wife when they are 40 or [-] years old.This kind of situation has become more and more, and the situation of human trafficking has naturally fermented.

The Jin Dynasty has very strict criminal laws for human traffickers. Once caught, they will be sentenced to death and punish the three clans.Buying and selling is the same crime, and the buyer will also be beheaded.But even if the criminal law is harsh, people will still choose this path.
