Chapter 407 The Imperial Concubine is Pure and Elegant (One Hundred and Fifty-Seven)

The next day, Liang Sheng came to Chengqian Palace after the morning court session.

He looked at Cui Li, who was dressed in casual clothes, and couldn't help but hug her and said, "I really don't want to let you leave the palace. Can't you stay for me?"

Cui Li smiled and shook her head, saying, "Sheng Lang, the palace is truly oppressive and restrictive, and there's so much unseen warfare going on. I don't like it here, and I'm truly sorry. Li'er has made up her mind to leave. Besides, I'm only going to be out of the palace for two years. Baiyun Temple is only ten miles from the capital, so you can come visit us often! It's not like we won't be back in the palace anymore. Don't I have to go back for festivals like your birthday and the annual banquet?"

Liang Sheng remained silent. He was afraid that if he spoke again, he would stop Cui Li from leaving and make Cui Li unhappy.

Cui Li had thought about how to leave the palace secretly before, but later found out that she could just leave the palace with the help of Liang Sheng, and then make plans after leaving the palace.

Anyway, the original owner had been clamoring to leave the palace every few days, so it wouldn't be out of place for her to bring it up.

Cuiyun came in quietly and said, "Your Majesty, Your Majesty, everything is ready."

"Well, Sheng Lang, let's set off."

"You just take advantage of the fact that I can't bear to refuse you."

Cui Li smiled, took Liang Sheng's hand, and said a few soft words.

Liang Sheng helped Cui Li sit in a comfortable sedan chair. He had already ordered people to clear a way out of the palace, and they left the palace quietly.

They left the palace in disguise and did not tell the empress dowager for the time being. After Cui Li left, someone from Chengqian Palace would impersonate her and the several personal maids she took away.

To outsiders, the imperial concubine was doing well in Chengqian Palace, taking care of her pregnancy.

The real Cui Li has already come to Baiyun Temple with Liang Sheng.

Baiyun Temple is the place where the Imperial Master practices meditation and is not open to the public. Even the mountain is the private property of the Imperial Master's Mansion, and even the mountain roads leading to the public have not been repaired.

Looking up from the bottom of the mountain, it is deserted, shrouded in white mist, with blooming mountain flowers, birds singing crisply, and the air fresh and pleasant. From the perspective of the environment, it is indeed a good place for meditation.

The Imperial Master set up a maze outside Baiyun Temple so that ordinary people could not disturb him. Only by taking a specific path or holding his jade seal could one go up the mountain.

Moreover, the national teacher also specially made an aerial pulley, which is a unique skill. After sitting in it and starting it, you can go up the mountain through the mechanism.

The pulley is two meters long, one meter wide and two meters high. The space is not large and is sealed on all sides, leaving only two small windows on the left and right for ventilation, which can block wind, sun and rain.

The original owner loved riding the scooter, and every time he came to Baiyun Temple with the Imperial Master, he would never walk up the mountain.

Only once did she anger the Imperial Master, who insisted she climb a mountain. So she, Xuan Yunian, and Cui Yun climbed up. When they reached the top, the Imperial Master was meditating, clutching his whisk, and complained that the original owner was walking too slowly.

Cui Li thought about the little old man in her memory and wondered if she could meet him again.

Cuiyun and Le Chang walked in front, holding the jade seal, and the others followed her up the mountain.

This was Cuiyun's second visit to Baiyun Temple, and she still felt it was magical, because as long as she held the jade seal, she would naturally know which way to go up the mountain, and she would not encounter snakes, insects, rats or ants on the way.

She found that the route she took this time was completely different from the last time. This time, she would even pass by a small waterfall. The sound of the rushing water was the natural music of the mountains and forests.

Le Chang also changed into a round-necked, wide-sleeved cotton spring shirt, and walked beside Cuiyun with a smile, praising the exquisite design of Baiyun Temple and calling it a beautiful place with great natural beauty.

The three palace maids and four eunuchs who were following behind saw the beautiful scenery along the way and started chatting happily, completely free of the restraint they had in the palace.

Cui Li and Liang Sheng went up together on the cable car. It felt wonderful to sit on it and look down at the mountains and forests. A quarter of an hour later, they landed steadily on the flat ground outside the Taoist temple.
