The two hundred and forty-seventh round

The construction drawings of the Taiyi Hall were completed in three days. When Qin Ying arrived at Xihuaguan, the craftsmen had already begun to break ground. The Taoist people watched around the backyard for a while, and when they saw Qin Ying walking with their hands behind their backs, they consciously dispersed and made way for them.

The leading craftsman stopped his command and greeted Qin Ying.

Qin Ying leaned over and saluted back, calling the Taoist to put himself on a seat under the tree and watch them do things in person. Within half an hour, however, she fell asleep against the trunk of the tree.

The Taoist people passing by saw the viewer hanging his head, with an innocent childlike sleeping face on his face, and they all pursed their lips and snickered. Obviously, there was a clanging construction sound in front of Qin Ying, but she was able to fall asleep peacefully. I really let the eight winds blow, and I didn't move.

When she woke up, the noisy construction sound in her ears had stopped, and she moved her stiff neck to get up, only to see that she was wearing a scarlet robe on her front.

The Fukuda lattice on top was woven with gold thread, which made her eyes sting. Qin Ying blinked and looked away, lifted his robe and wrapped it between his arms, got up and asked the Taoist beside him casually, "Only a monk has come?" Taking off the robe on her body and covering her, Qin Ying could only think of a person doing this.

The Taoist bowed respectfully and said: "Back to the Lord, a certain master of Puguang Temple came to pay respects, and the Taoist boy who greeted him led him into the guest hall to sit. After waiting for you for a long time, he went into the backyard to look for you. ”

Qin Ying heard the Taoist's vague answer, and had already guessed who the person was. She lowered her head and looked at the vermilion robe between her arms, was silent for a moment and sighed: "They have all become high monks of Puguang Temple, and they are still so ignorant of the rules." After saying that, she flashed into the cloister, and went to the guest hall to see Ruqi in the shade.

I haven't seen him for more than three months, and now he is wearing a magnolia-colored monk's robe, sitting in the guest hall quietly making tea, and then pouring himself a drink. That unpretentious and somewhat frank bearing made Qin Ying's eyes light up.

Qin Ying walked over and sat down, handing the robe between his arms back to him. After pouring a cup of tea and taking a sip, Qin Yingying smiled and said: "I just got an errand from Puguang Temple a few days ago, and now you are wearing a robe and going out of the temple gate to enter the door, you are also high-profile enough." ”

Since she became the master of the temple, she deliberately maintained a close relationship with the Honglu Temple, so as to always pay attention to the personnel changes of the various temples in Chang'an City. So she entered the upper circle of this religion, and her horizons became broader.

Ruqi didn't care about the words and attitudes of outsiders, but after Qin Ying's pointing, he also knew that he was really ostentatious when he was in the conflict between Buddhism and Taoism. He curled the corners of his lips and smiled shyly: "You and I intersect, will it cause you trouble?" ”

She shook her head. Although he put on a robe for himself, which surprised Qin Ying, this incident happened in his Xihua Temple, and I believe that the Taoist he saw would not spread it.

The smile on Ruqi's lips deepened.

The two of them sat down and talked about the old for a while. He listened to her talk about the scenery and people in Youzhou, and she listened to him talk about the flourishing plants and trees on Zhongnan Mountain. In the end, the conversation returned to the sharp attitude of the two factions of Buddhism and Taoism in Chang'an City, which were incompatible with each other.

He asked Qin Ying if he was hostile to Buddhism in his heart.

Qin Ying pondered the question he had raised, and felt more and more that Ruqi was wrong. If she saw the people of Buddhism as competitors, how could she drink tea and chat with him? Does he feel like he's an exception?

Thinking about it, her face became serious, and she sat down and said to him: "I thought that the two schools of Buddhism and Taoism were like wells and rivers, and they did not interfere with each other. ”

Ruqi saw that Qin Ying was like some kind of animal with hair on his body, and quickly waved his hand and said, "I heard that Xihuaguan intends to compete for pilgrim incense...... Then I asked, don't go to your heart. "Actually, he came here today to be entrusted by Master Tan to explore Qin Ying's background.

Qin Ying gradually relaxed, bent her tight spine, spread her crossed legs and changed to a comfortable sitting position.

As a result, he found a new problem and asked her if it was pleasant to be half-born in the world.

The atmosphere was a little embarrassed by Ruqi, who couldn't speak tactfully.

She was stunned for a moment and then said slowly, barely holding on.

The master of Puguang Temple has been absent from this temple for a long time, and he is very busy with seven. The two said goodbye without saying much.

Qin Ying didn't personally send him out of Xihuaguan, but just sat in the guest hall and looked at his back and said a few more words, put the robe into the cloth bag and left. At this time, she already vaguely felt that the difference in status made them have to part ways, and the days of walking side by side in Longtian Temple two years ago are gone.

Qin Ying was absent-minded when she was eating in the evening, Mei Sanniang thought that Qin Ying was missing her sister and brother-in-law who left Chang'an in the afternoon, so she silently gave Qin Ying non-stop dishes. Qin Ying didn't move her chopsticks twice before saying that she was a little tired and went back to her room early to sleep.

That night, Qin Ying had a dream that was both real and illusory.

She dreamed that she was the master of Xihua Guan and Ruqi was the master of Puguang Temple, and they represented the two schools of Buddhism and Taoism respectively, and stood on the cusp of public opinion hostilely.

In the dream, just like the Daxingshan Temple that she participated in two years ago, a very high wooden platform was built on top of the open space. She was dressed in a black and white robe, combed a high bun and wore a crown of golden hairpins and feathers. Ruqi on the opposite side is the same appearance as today. They were supposed to sit and talk, but the two of them didn't say a word.

Everyone in the audience looked at Qin Ying, at first they called the divine doctor neatly, and then suddenly changed their tone and scolded her in a chaotic manner. Hearing the sound getting louder and louder, Qin Ying couldn't help but blushed and turned her head to look at the audience. As a result, he saw Hou Junji in the crowd, and he pulled out a horizontal knife in public and threw it at her.

Qin Ying sat up from the couch suddenly, and after waking up, he didn't know for a moment that everything he saw in his dream was illusory. I touched my neck, and then I smoothed my shirt without scars.

Because of a dream, she couldn't give up all morning. Mei Sanniang tied her hair, and Qin Ying was still sitting in front of the mirror. Mei Sanniang teased her a few words, and Qin Ying barely cheered up.

At the time of the court meeting, she knelt on the seat of the Wupin official, and watched Hou Jun gather on the court hall and turn over the rain with his mouth, and her heart was very uncomfortable.

However, Hou Junji soon jumped and didn't have long to go. Because some people began to write to participate in his loyal henchmen Dai Guan. Hou Junji wanted to avoid suspicion, so he had to sit in the banquet and watch silently.

Dai Xuan sat in the position of the head of the household under the fourth grade. In his early years, he followed Wang Shichong to do things, and later submitted to Li Tang. In the first year of Zhenguan, he won the blue eyes of His Majesty, and the speed of promotion to the official position was comparable to that of a group of old ministers who had planned great things under the account of King Qin. However, Dai Xuan is exquisitely and sleekly in everything he does, and it stands to reason that he has not offended anyone.

Before Qin Ying finished recalling Dai Guan's past, he heard the two classes of ministers quarreling.

"Didn't Lord Dai bend the law for personal gain in the household department? How did Mei Xuan, who was a smash hit in the past, infiltrate the teaching workshop from Pingkangfang? If she hadn't opened up the relationship between the household department, how could she change from a prostitute to an official prostitute? (To be continued.) )
