The guests in the hall were in an uproar after hearing this, and even the Lu family couldn't believe that the famous Yuan Chou Shitai would come to visit in person at this time, but she never asked about mundane things, and even gave a lecture to the former queen mother, the queen mother came to the Lingyuan Temple dojo to listen to the teaching, but today she came uninvited, and this sudden arrival made Lu Yuanzhi a little unprepared.

Fortunately, Mrs. Huang went to Lingyuan Temple to listen to the scriptures every day, and she was mostly ordered by Yuan Chou's teacher, so she had a friendship with her teacher, and hurriedly led the ladies in the house to go to the front yard to greet her with Lu Yuanzhi and Lu Yuanze.

Yuan Chou Shi is nearly sixty years old, in good health, wearing a white gauze robe with a dark bottom, his eyes are slightly narrowed, he seems to be smiling but not smiling, the monks are always serious, and they will show the compassion and kindness of the elders, with unique charm and unique charm, followed by four young monks and nuns, and the first one is holding a yellow cloth brocade box in his hand. The housekeeper greeted Mrs. Shi into the door, and Mr. and Mrs. Xiangguo and Lu Yuanze greeted Mrs. Xiang and saluted Mrs. Shi from afar.

"I don't know if the master is here, please forgive me for missing the welcome!" Lu Yuanzhi said humbly, although he is not a believer in Buddhism, but there are many believers in Buddhism in the Lu family, he has been affected since he was a child, and he knows that Yuan Chou is too famous, so he naturally treats him with courtesy.

Master Yuan Chou returned the courtesy and smiled gently: "It is the fault of the poor nuns who came uninvited and disturbed this great wedding banquet, and I also ask Lord Xiangguo and his wife to forgive the poor nuns." ”

Mrs. Huang hurriedly said: "No, no, no, Mrs. Shi has always not asked about mundane matters, but today she went down the mountain for my idiot wedding, it is really a great honor for our Lu family, how can it be disturbed? It is to let our Lu family shine! If we knew that Mrs. Shi was coming, we would definitely go to Lingyuan Temple to greet her, this is really a joy and joy, and I also invite Mrs. Shi to come in and enjoy and eat my son's cup of tea?"

Mrs. Yuan Chou shook his head: "Thank you for your kindness." Mrs. Huang also knows that the poor nun never asks about the affairs of the laity, but Mrs. Huang has often listened to the scriptures in the poor nun dojo for many years, as long as the poor nun is in Chang'an, it is not wrong to miss a one, very pious, very Buddha, today's lady's eldest son is happy to get married, in addition to the poor nun to congratulate him, but also to bring a Buddhist treasure for the newlyweds, in order to ensure auspiciousness and peace, but also ask the newlyweds to accept. ”

The disciple behind her opened the brocade box and took out the treasure, and Mrs. Huang immediately recognized that this was one of the three major temple magic vessels of Lingyuan Temple - the purple gold Buddha bowl, which had been enshrined on the golden Buddha in the main hall for hundreds of years, but now it was invited to the Lu family, which was really a precious gift that could not be compared.

The Lu family thanked them again and again, and King Jin Xuan and others also warmly invited Mrs. Yuan Chou into the hall, but Mrs. Shi couldn't shirk it, so she had to agree to enter the main hall to eat a cup of tea.

They hugged Mrs. Shi and walked inside, at this time most of the guests were sitting in the hall, curious and not easy to enter and exit at will, Mrs. Shi had just stepped into the hall, and everyone had time to get up and say hello, but seeing Gu Qingning walking forward quickly, kneeling down in front of Mrs. Yuanchou, kowtowing and bowing: "I am fortunate to meet the master here, and the disciple Gu Qingning bows his head." ”

Everyone was even more surprised, it was rumored that this Yuan Chou master never accepted lay disciples, why could Gu Qingning call the master directly?

And Master Yuan Chou had a kind face, and said with a light smile: "It turned out to be Qingning, hurry up, let the master see, where is your father and brother......?"

Gu's father and son stepped forward to salute, Gu Qingning's eyes were slightly red, and said: "After the master returned to Chang'an, Qingning wanted to go to Lingyuan Temple to meet and listen to the teaching, but his health has not been good, so he was delayed, and I ask the master to forgive me." ”

Master Yuan Chou stroked her shoulder lightly and said, "It's okay, it's okay, if you have a Buddha in your heart, you are a member of the Buddha's family, so why do you need to go into the temple to worship? As long as you don't neglect your homework." ”

Most of them are still stuck in the scandal of the Gu family some time ago, just waiting to see what jokes the Gu family will cause at the Lu family's wedding banquet to confirm their speculation, and they never thought that there would be a section of Yuan Chou Shitai.

Madame Huang asked, "Could it be that Miss Gu is a senior disciple of Shitai?"

Mrs. Yuan Chou took Gu Qingning's hand into the table and sat down, and replied: "Whether to accept or not depends on the Buddha's fate, Qingning has worshiped Buddhism since she was a child, and she is dedicated to the Buddha, quite wise, and she is a leader in practice, and has already vowed not to marry a Buddha for the rest of her life, and she is indeed the only lay disciple of the poor nuns." ”

As soon as these words came out, it really made everyone sigh in their hearts, and the Lu family finally understood that Master Yuan Chou was not here to send the temple magic weapon to the Lu family, but to send such a sentence to the Gu family.

Gu Qingning had already vowed not to marry for life.

One sentence to solve the scourge of rumors.

After that, Mrs. Yuan Chou proposed to pray for the new people of the Lu family to chant Buddhist scriptures and send wishes, and let Gu Qingning chant the scriptures with her in the courtyard, Gu Qingning's performance was completely aware of the Buddhist rites, chanting scriptures and meditating, burning incense to complete the course, skillful and pious, in full view of everyone, no different from other Buddhist disciples, everyone changed their views on the previous rumors after seeing it, and after knowing the reason why she did not marry, the official ladies who originally mocked Gu Qingning had respect for her.

This is a move to solve the difficulties of the Gu family and the Lu family, such a situation not only reassures the hearts of King Jin Xuan and everyone, but also reassures the hearts of the Lu family, but for Gu Qingning, it is a self-imposed shackle, and he is trapped after purifying his name.

After the Buddhist work was done, Master Yuan Chou said goodbye, the banquet continued, and everyone treated their families with another attitude. The hall was full of splendor, the music was up again, the Gu family was still eating and drinking at the last table, Gu Qingning didn't move the chopsticks again, Lu Yuanze then saluted the guests of Dongtang, the crowd looked at this side in the shouting, glanced at her, and the two raised their glasses at the same time and drank them all.

At the end of the banquet, the guests went to toast to the host and the newcomer, only the three Gu family members were left in this corner, they looked at the lively crowd in the hall, Gu Qinghuan asked: "The powerful people of the city gather together, father, can you see who we can ally with?" Although I know that my father is planning, the child is stupid, and he has been paying attention, and he has no idea. ”

Gu Qingxuan poured himself a glass of wine, looked at the chief of the hall, and said with a smile: "What's so difficult? As long as we look at who is the most hospitable, who gives the most generous gifts, and who sits side by side with Lu Xiangguo and entertains the most, we can ally with whomever we want." ”

Sangu's eyes fell on Lu Yuanzhi's side, he sat on his right King Jin Xuan, this is not a guest, and he is pushing a cup with the person on the left to drink a drink, that person is also in a high position with him, and brings a few cars of luxury gifts to congratulate, during the banquet with the Lu family toasted the most, and Lu Yuanzhi is even closer to King Jin Xuan, Lu Yuanzhi also regarded him as a guest and did not dare to slack off, that person is one of the three dukes, the imperial historian, Yin Jiheng.

After a glance, they smiled at each other, touched a glass tacitly, and then went to the chief to toast the Lu family and King Jin Xuan.

The wedding banquet is about to end, the three eyes say goodbye, they walk out, Gu Qingxuan is in front, the eldest son and eldest daughter follow closely, all of them are cloth and simple clothes, through the full house of brocade robes and gorgeous clothes, out of the Fuli Ming Hall, the pace is steady, and slowly go.

According to the number of etiquette, the housekeeper sent off the guests, and as soon as they left, the butler of the Xiangfu who was polite in person glanced at the gift box sent by the Gu family, and mocked softly with disdain: "Dare to come to the Xiangfu to eat and drink with such a crude gift, this Gu family, it is really ridiculous!"

didn't want to be heard by Qiao Huai'an next to him, he looked at the back of Sangu, pondered, was silent for a while, and then shook his head slightly, sighing softly, "In such a situation, come calmly and leave calmly, is it ridiculous or terrible?"
