Remember [Qianqian βΓ· Xiaoβ said in one second, and read it for free without pop-ups!
Since Xiao Jiu arrived in the capital, he always felt that his days were not free, but he couldn't say what he was busy with every day.
"Grandma and grandfather have a banquet, and I have to go to the Suguo Mansion tomorrow. Xiao Jiu counted the banquets he was going to attend these days, and at the end, he sighed: "Fortunately, I was shocked by that time, these people were a little scared, and they didn't dare to say something in front of me, and the atmosphere was harmonious." β
It is also unintentionally planted in the willows and willows.
"It's just a woman with a broken mouth, and if you don't like it, you don't have to pay attention to it. Yan Xi frowned, he really didn't look down on some of the women in the back house of the capital, and he didn't want Xiao Jiu to be close to them, so as not to spoil his nature.
"There is also good for women with broken mouths, and if they knew something, they would like to make a fuss known to the whole world. Xiao Jiu felt that she still liked to listen to gossip, but she only liked to listen to it, not to talk about it.
"It's good that you know it in your heart. Xiao Jiu has not been in the capital since he was a child, and Yan Xi is still somewhat worried that Xiao Jiu will not be able to socialize among those noble ladies.
"Got it. Xiao Jiu paused, and then said: "Tomorrow I will go to the Suguo Mansion, and I will ask Brother Nanyu again, will this scripture imply what it means, didn't he study the scriptures very well before?"
"It's fine. Yan Xi replied in a deep voice: "I'll pick you up tomorrow." β
"Okay. β

The Suguo Mansion invited Mrs. Xiao to a banquet, and also sent a post to the Lan family, which can be called solemn.
After getting up early and having a meal, Xiao Jiu took Mrs. Xiao Chen to the Suguo Mansion, and the porter got the news early, and several people got off the carriage and went to the backyard from the second gate in a sedan chair.
The Lan family came early, and when Xiao Jiu and the others entered the side hall, the two families had arrived, although Mrs. Xiao was just an ordinary old lady from the countryside, Yu Xiao Jiu had great favors, Mrs. Su, Mrs. Su, Mrs. Lan, Mrs. Lan, and Mrs. Lan all got up and took two steps to greet her.
Xiao Jiu's heart was moved, but it was not easy to stop it, after all, it was all for her, and the elders could do this, otherwise according to the identity of the old ladies of the Su Lan family, no matter where they went, they would be respected as the upper seats.
After some greetings, everyone sat down again, Xiao Jiu led the way to kowtow to the elders, and received a lot of red envelopes, and the old lady Su opened his mouth to drive people away, "Okay, juniors should go out and have fun." β
"Yes. β
Xiao Jiu is also big-hearted, and after Mrs. Su drove people away, she was really relieved to follow her brothers together.
The brothers of the Su family have recognized their sister for a long time, and now they finally have time to talk to her, they used to think that it was good to have a brother, but when the brothers wanted to speak, Xiao Jiu finally understood the torment.
More than a dozen brothers said one sentence each, and she had to reply with more than a dozen sentences, and she couldn't favor one over the other.
The quietest ones were Nanyu and Xiao Chen, Xiao Jiu talked to his brothers for a long time before finally getting out to find Nanyu.
"Brother. Xiao Jiu'er smiled shyly and whispered, "Xiao Jiu'er has something to ask my brother." β
"What's the matter?" Although Nanyu had no expression, his eyes were very gentle.
Xiao Jiu read out that passage of scripture and asked, "Yan Xi told me the meaning of the scripture, but I always felt that this should be something to imply, but unfortunately I was too stupid and always couldn't figure it out." β
"If you are sick and sweaty, you will gradually heal and damage your ears. Nanyu read a sentence, paused for a while, and finally spoke: "Change the evil and do the good, the sin will be eliminated, and the sick body will slowly improve, if you don't continue to be evil, the body will naturally deteriorate." β
"Buddhism talks about the reincarnation of cause and effect, and if you hear this scripture under the Bodhi tree, then the answer to what you think in your heart is naturally in this scripture. β
Nanyu's words made Xiao Jiu ponder, what was she thinking when she walked over?
Or what has always been the most desperate thing to know in her heart?
β¦β¦ It's the identity of that person.
Xiao Jiu's eyes lit up, if this scripture really has a directional meaning, then this person, isn't it, the sixth prince?
The mother of the sixth prince died in childbirth, although it was not difficult to walk in the palace, but in the end it was not as good as other princes, especially because he was not in good health, and there was no possibility of ascending to the throne.
It is precisely because of this that other people's eyes will not be on the Six Princes, nor will they doubt and guard against him, so that he can do many things.
Although Xiao Jiu felt that this speculation was reasonable and well-founded, there was no substantive evidence, everything was just speculation, and he couldn't count it, but there was a direction to investigate.
"Thank you, brother, I see. Xiao Jiu thanked him with a smile and asked, "How does my brother know that I heard this scripture under the Bodhi tree?"
"You went to Xiangguoji Temple yesterday. Nanyu explained lightly: "When I went to Xiangguo Temple for my brother in the past, I also had the honor to meditate under the Bodhi tree. β
Xiao Jiu was surprised, this means, Nanyu also heard it?
It seems that she is not entirely special, she has a divine power, Su Ci has a dream warning, she can hear the scriptures under the Bodhi tree, and Nanyu can do the same.
Does that mean that there are many such "special" people in places she doesn't know?
Although Xiao Jiu was puzzled in her heart, she didn't dwell on it for long, after all, this kind of thing can't be investigated with great fanfare, and besides, it's not interesting to find out, she just knows it in her heart, so she quickly threw it into the back of her mind.
I don't know what the elders talked about, but the juniors were happy, because of Xiao Jiu's relationship, the brothers of the Su family and the cousins of the Lan family were extremely friendly to Xiao Chen.
When Xiao Jiu was laughing with his brothers, he suddenly remembered the jade pendant on the ancestor of the Lan family, so he called Su Ci to find Old Lady Lan together.
Xiao Jiu sent Furong to invite Old Lady Lan, she and Su Ci waited in the gazebo in the garden, and the maids retreated far away after sending tea, snacks, melons and fruits.
Xiao Jiu ate an apple, took out the preserved fruit from his purse and ate it, and after a while, he finished eating, and waited for Mrs. Lan.
"You girl, what do you have to say secretly?" Although Old Lady Lan was reprimanded, the smile on her face was extremely obvious.
Xiao Jiu pouted and said coquettishly: "Of course it's a big deal, it's not good to be known by others." β
Old Lady Lan laughed and said, "Then Xiao Jiu'er has something important to tell her grandfather?"
"Xiao Jiu'er wanted to ask about the missing jade pendant back then. Xiao Jiu's voice became a little lower.
"Jade pendant?" Old Lady Lan was very surprised, her eyes were a little sharper, and she asked lightly, "What do you ask that jade pendant for?"
Of course, Xiao Jiu didn't miss the old lady's eyes just now, and secretly smacked his tongue, but he didn't expect the old lady to be quite cautious, and his granddaughter was on guard.
"My brother said that it was a jade pendant left by the ancestor of the Lan family's divine doctor, and only the blood of the descendants of the Lan family could open the jade pendant, is that so, grandfather?" Xiao Jiu looked at the old lady Lan with blank eyes.
