The Prime Minister's Darling novel Chapter 311

Chapter 311: Offering Incense (First Watch)

Fen Lin hadn’t been asleep long before he woke Lin Chengye: “Don’t sleep anymore, it’s time to go offer incense!”

Lin Chengye was still in a daze: “Offer what incense?”

Fen Lin quickly jumped off the bed, changing into his clothes as he said: “You forgot, today is the first day of the New Year, it was agreed we would go to Puji Temple to grab the first incense offering!”

Puji Temple is a very famous temple in Capital City. Unlike other temples mainly known for seeking marriage or children, Puji Temple was famous for the prayers of students hoping to pass the scholar exams.

There were rumors in Capital City that anyone who got the first incense offering in Puji Temple would eventually become a high-ranked scholar.

Fen Lin didn’t dare to hope that he could become a high-ranked scholar, he prayed to Buddha that he would pass the Provincial Exam and become a tribute scholar!

It appeared that Lin Chengye had completely forgotten about this. He pulled the blanket over his head and continued to sleep heavily.

Fen Lin pulled down the blanket and said: “Stop sleeping, get up! We still need to get Liulang!”

On hearing the mention of Liulang, Lin Chengye woke up considerably: “Hmm, alright.”

Fen Lin went to knock at the door of the east room.

Xiao Liulang was awakened, he looked at the sleeping Gu Jiao beside him and frowned impatiently. He did not want to get out of bed, but he was afraid if he did not go out, Fen Lin would keep knocking on the door.

He got out of bed and opened the door for Fen Lin. A rush of cold air poured in. He quickly went out and closed the door behind him: “What’s the matter?”

Fen Lin rubbed his hands and said: “We’re going to offer incense! Hurry up! If we don’t leave now, we won’t be reaching in time! We are going to grab the first incense offering! Even if we don’t get the first incense, any within the first one hundred will also work!”

“But, Liulang’s leg, is it okay?” Lin Chengye walked over and asked.

Fen Lin said: “It’s okay! We won’t have to walk much! The carriage can go directly to the river bank, we just have to cross a bridge to reach the temple!”

After all, Xiao Liulang’s surgery was successful, Gu Jiao said his foot was not in pain anymore, and it was just necessary to exercise more!

Last New Year’s Eve, Xiao Liulang promised Fen Lin that, if there was a chance to go to Capital City for the exam, he would definitely go to Puji Temple.

How could Xiao Liulang have anticipated that he would indeed travel to Capital City?

How did he step by step reach where he was now despite swearing never to set foot in Capital City again?

The last time she saw him in her dreams was in June when he went to the Provincial City for his exam. Half a year had blurred by without any unfortunate incidents, he even thought there wouldn’t be any problems anymore. _{ƒreeωebnovel.ƈom}
