Chapter 036: No need to explain

Sibling......

When Lu Zhi heard this, he instantly understood, they need a proper identity when they are walking outside, if they go everywhere under the banner of the prince of Zhenjiang, wherever they go, the local officials and the people will definitely be disturbed, and it is really inconvenient to walk.

The identity of the brother and sister visiting relatives played a cover role just right, and it also saved the exploration of others, as for the rest, she thought, but anyone who saw Duan Chen would not only regard him as a teenager more than ten years old.

Looking at his hand stretched out with a smile on his face, Lu Zhi finally slowly stretched out his hand.

It's a pity that although Duan Chen is already ten years old and tall, Lu Zhi is only five years old after all, even if she stretches out her hand, she still can't reach it.

Seeing this, Wu Yi on the side took two steps forward to pick up Lu Zhi and put him directly on the horse's back, in front of Duan Chen.

Sitting on horseback, sure enough, it was a different vision and state of mind, but it was the first time she was riding on horseback, although her vision was good, she was very nervous, and she didn't know where to put her hands and feet.

Duan Chen stretched out his arm and hugged her into his arms, took the reins and whispered softly in her ear: "Don't worry, everything has me." ”

His voice was very soft, but it was strange that Lu Zhi felt so reliable, so she took a deep breath and slowly exhaled, gradually relaxed her stiff body, nodded and said yes.

Seeing this, Duan Chen's face became softer, and he rode his horse with a clamp on his horse's belly, he walked in front of the team, and his speed was not fast or slow, very steady, so that Lu Zhi, who was riding a horse for the first time, gradually forgot about everything else, and only concentrated on enjoying the scenery along the way.

Out of the city, after walking for more than an hour, when the sunset was shrouded, the group finally came to Ming'en Temple.

It was almost dusk, and many pilgrims had returned one after another, and the temple seemed very peaceful and quiet.

Duan Chen took Lu Zhi to visit all the way, and when he entered the Daxiong Treasure Hall, the nurse beside him was very devout to worship one by one, and after she finished worshipping, she came to Lu Zhi's side, handed over the incense invited at the door and whispered: "Ming'en Temple is very effective, Miss also worship the Buddha and Bodhisattva and make a wish." ”

Lu Zhi looked at the incense handed by the nurse but didn't reach out to take it, but said lightly: "No need, if the wish is realized, it will definitely come to repay the wish, but I don't know if there will be a chance to come here again, if you don't pay the vow, wouldn't it be disrespectful to the Buddha and Bodhisattva." ”

Hearing this, the nurse's face was suddenly annoyed: "What Miss said is very true, how did the slave and maid not think of it." ”

After speaking, she hurriedly went to the Bodhisattva to bow down again, and babbled that if her wish came true, she couldn't come back and wish to return to the Buddha and Bodhisattva.

Lu Zhi looked at her appearance and sighed, in fact, she was just looking for an excuse, not that she didn't believe that there were ghosts and gods in this world, and it wasn't that she didn't respect ghosts and gods, but because she believed that everything was man-made, and fate was just her own choice, a cause and effect.

glanced at Duan Chen, and saw that he had no intention of visiting the Buddha, but just stood quietly beside her, and couldn't help asking, "Why didn't the prince go to worship?" ”

Duan Chen glanced at her and raised his lips slightly: "I believe that things are more man-made." ”

Lu Zhi was stunned when she heard this, retracted her gaze and turned her head, and somehow remembered what he said to her about smart people on the day she first met, he said that people who are born smart are destined to have a bad fate, and those who are forced by fate to be smart are destined to be extremely wise.

Either seems to end well.

And these two seem to be talking about him and her.

And he and she seem to believe that everything is man-made.

After visiting several halls of the temple, the sun had already set, and Duan Chen found a monk to hand over his prayer note to Abbot Huichen.

It didn't take long for the monk who was passing the word to come in a hurry and respectfully saluted Duan Chen: "Amitabha, the little monk doesn't know how lazy the son of the world is when he comes, and he still hopes that the son of the world is not strange." The abbot is now in the meditation room, and the prince asks the little monk to come. ”

Duan Chen glanced at a few guards and nurses behind him, and said to the monk: "If it's late today, I wonder if it's convenient for me to wait for the night?" ”

Hearing this, the monk hurriedly nodded: "Convenient, convenient." ”

After saying that, he summoned another monk and asked him to lead the people to the backyard to settle down.

Lu Zhi was about to go with her, but Duan Chen suddenly reached out and grabbed her wrist and smiled at her; "Come with me."

Lu Zhi looked down at the wrist he was holding, although she didn't know why he wanted her to go with her, but she knew that he insisted on it, and was silent for a moment and turned to the nurse and said, "Nurse, you go to settle first, and I will look for you later." ”

Seeing that she agreed to go, Duan Chen let go of his hand.

The nurse nodded, and then left with the monk.

Lu Zhi followed Duan Chen to the meditation room, and the monk who led the way retreated and closed the door of the meditation room, the room was burning with fragrance, and the abbot of Huichen was sitting in the room with his eyes closed and chanting, and after the door was closed, he opened his eyes: "The prince has worked hard all the way, please take a seat." ”

Duan Chen and Lu Zhi saluted him, sat down on the side, and Abbot Huichen personally poured two cups of tea and handed them over, then looked at Lu Zhi and said, "This is ......"

Duan Chen smiled slightly, didn't make much introduction, just said lightly: "It's not an outsider." ”

Huichen was slightly stunned when he heard this, looked at Lu Zhi carefully, and nodded: "Many things are really fate, and the son of the world has indeed not found the wrong person." ”

When Duan Chen heard this, there was a hint of complexity on his face, as if he was a little surprised and as if everything was expected.

Lu Zhi lowered her eyes slightly when she heard this, Duan Chen's sentence was not an outsider, and Abbot Huichen's sentence that she had never found the wrong person, for some reason, made her a little uneasy.

She took a sip of the tea cup in front of her, hiding her thoughts, and only didn't hear it.

Duan Chen, who was on the side, also took a sip of the teacup, and smiled at Lu Zhi with a slight smile: "Abbot Huichen and my father are close friends, and my father knew that I would pass by here, so he specially repaired a letter and ordered me to come to visit. ”

After speaking, in order to wait for Lu Zhi to respond, he talked with Huichen, they mostly talked about some Zen words, Lu Zhi listened quietly, but his mind was already far away.

He didn't really need to explain it to himself.

After chatting for a long time, Duan Chen and Huichen talked about the old days again, and then got up to say goodbye.

Huichen personally sent Duan Chen and Lu Zhi to the door of the meditation room, and when he parted, he recited a Buddha name, and said lightly: "Please also ask the prince to inform the prince that the poor monk is already in preparation, but it will take time, and I hope the prince is not strange." ”

Duan Chen nodded: "This matter is time-consuming, and my father naturally understands." ”

Hearing this, Huichen recited another Buddha name, and called the monks to send Duan Chen and Lu Zhi back to their residence.

Returning to the room to wash up, Lu Zhi lay on the bed and looked at the moonlight spilling in from the window, frowning slightly, today's events really made her a little puzzled, why Duan Chen asked her to go with her, why did he not want her to go with him, and he was not an outsider, and he was even more incomprehensible if Abbot Huichen did not find the wrong person......

She sighed and shook her head, turned sideways and closed her eyes, it's just that since she can't figure it out, why think about it again, it's just a few gray hairs, she is still young, she doesn't want to turn gray so soon......
