Chapter 279 Kindness turns revenge
The two hundred and seventy-ninth round
A few days ago, the master of the Xuandu Temple had discussed the Dharma process with the Taoists invited by the various views, and had practiced it many times, but now he just took the silk book and confirmed it again. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
Even if Qin Ying is very familiar with Buxu Tagang, he must make concessions for the overall situation. After all, the Xuandu view of the Midyear Festival on July 15 is not her alone.
The Dharma assigned to her by the Lord of Xuandu Guan was to recite prayers. This errand is not difficult to say, but simple is not easy. It relies on the ability to control the field at a macro level. Because when chanting, it should be accompanied by the steps of the Taoist on the stage, bowing and bowing, and the flags and ceremonial guards moving on both sides are opened and closed.
Although Qin Ying's reputation spread, she was short and could not convince the Taoists she had never met, so the legal affairs of reciting the prayers were shared by several Taoists. In this way, there can be an alternate, and there is no need to let one person stand in front of the stage from beginning to end.
Taking advantage of the closed door of the Xuandu Temple, the Xuandu Temple Lord asked a few of them to take a look at the process again, and then turned around to arrange the wishful child of the Duanxiang case, as well as the two teams of honor guards.
The silk book in Qin Ying's hand recorded in detail the various excerpts of the Taoist books needed for the ritual, and she scanned the two rounds at a glance, reciting them with the rest of the Taoist people who were reciting the prayers, and reminded each other if there was any confusion.
Noon is the time when the yang energy is at its fullest, while the heat is bitterly hot. The Dharma was set by the Lord of Xuandu Guan.
Now there is still an hour before the official start, Qin Ying and they finished praying, and felt that the legs and feet standing on the ground were a little stiff, so he found a white grass futon to sit under the corridor outside the hall to rest, looking at the high platform erected in the square in the distance, and the figures on it seemed to be tireless, walking back and forth under the sight of the Lord and several overseers in charge.
"The morning fungus does not know the obscurity, and the cockroach does not know the spring and autumn." Qin Ying unconsciously came up with a sentence from "Zhuangzi Wandering" in his mind and muttered.
……
The Daheungzenji Temple next door is also in full swing preparing for the ceremony.
Ruqi served as the head of the honor guard in Obon. He wore a vermilion Futian robe embroidered with gold thread, constantly shuttling between the two teams of honor guards, carefully guiding the monks, how to hold the prayer flag with both hands is the most stable, and how big the steps are the most solemn.
In the past, he was just an unknown person who studied law theory and medical skills in the Caotang Temple of Zhongnan Mountain, following the Taoist Xuanshi, and he was unknown and did not care about the world; Now it has only been a few months since he descended the mountain, but he has grown into a young monk who can provoke a place in the Dharma industry.
In the Daxiong Treasure Hall on the side, Master Tanzang and several monks proofread the pronunciation of the scriptures that they were going to recite for a while. Daxingshan Temple has also invited many monks from various Buddhist temples today, and each of them speaks subtle differences in official dialect, so it is still necessary to pick important words to correct them.
Although the recitation of the scriptures is accompanied by the music of bells and drums, and the tune is completely unknown to the general public, it is better to be rigorous.
There are still two moments before Tatsumi is handed over. Xuandu Temple and Daxingshan Temple open at the same time, welcome the pilgrims who are busy watching the ceremony, it is said that participating in such a grand ceremony, it can dissipate the disaster to a certain extent, there are temple fair stalls around the temple to visit, so all people are vying to gather in these two squares.
Qin Ying was lazy and was discovered by the Lord of Xuandu, she touched her nose and quickly stood up, and stood in front of the stage with several Taoists who were reciting prayers. She had an approachable smile on her face, and her eyes froze as she swept to a familiar shadow in the distance.
Hou Junji brought his wife and children into the audience.
- Do you still want to be blessed by the gods after all the evil deeds? Qin Ying said coldly in her heart, and finally turned her gaze to the side quietly, but saw Mei Sanniang and Empress Xiao on the right.
She remembered that before she went out this morning, she seemed to hear Mei Sanniang say that she wanted to come to Xuandu to watch her preside over the ceremony. However, this scene of the gathering of enemies was unexpected.
A year ago, Mei Sanniang received Hou Junji's blue eyes, and was taken care of by him from an ordinary music prostitute to an official prostitute in the teaching workshop, and on the third day of the third month of March, she was noticed by His Majesty, and His Majesty asked her to play a song of music alone in front of the courtiers, and Mei Sanniang became famous after that. is no less than Qin Ying's status in the market now.
However, there are good and bad times for people. Lao Tzuyun, blessings and misfortunes lurk, and misfortunes and blessings rely on.
When Mei Sanniang went to the Hou Mansion for a banquet, she was treated lightly as the host of the night banquet. She subconsciously rebelled against him, even if he was her important benefactor, she did not allow herself to repay the kindness with her body.
Qianjun tied to a hair, and she used the Qibao tassel hairpin she was wearing to poke deeply into his Tanzhong acupoint.
Qin Ying only taught her this trick for self-defense in the past, but she didn't expect that she would really use it on others.
The guests were taken aback by this sudden change, and Hou Junji's wife came out of the backyard to see the bloodstained scene, and hurriedly asked someone to tie up Mei Sanniang, and asked the Yongzhou Mansion Yin in the seat to contact the guards and put this bold official prostitute in prison.
Zhao Tan, a geisha who entered the mansion with Mei Sanniang for a banquet, was also interrogated overnight, and this matter was tossed to the second half of the time, and Zhao Tan, who had no idea, was released from Yongzhou Prison, and she cried silently after she went back.
Qin Ying dreamed that Mei Sanniang had an accident, and rushed to Zhonglu Pavilion the next day to beg the bustard's mother to save Mei Sanniang's life, but the bustard's mother did not say a word about it, and it had the meaning of clearing up the relationship and saving the whole pavilion. Qin Ying had no choice but to go to the geisha in the pavilion and ask if there was a way to save Mei Sanniang.
Mo Xiang told Qin Ying not to worry, and took Qin Ying to Xingdaoli to meet Empress Xiao of the previous dynasty, and persuaded Empress Xiao with extremely solemn words, asking her to try to mediate in it.
Empress Xiao of the former dynasty and the current Empress Changsun have a kinship, and they usually move around more often, and Empress Xiao's eighth brother Xiao Yu is a servant shot above 10,000 people under one person, and she has the power of the harem in the former dynasty.
Mo Xiang has the courage to ask Queen Xiao here, and she can also persuade Queen Xiao, which is enough to prove that her courage is extraordinary.
After the trial of the three divisions, Mei Sanniang was released after receiving one of the lighter five punishments, and after recuperating from the injuries on her body, Queen Xiao read that Mei Sanniang was desperate, so she took her in the house and her companion.
Mei Sanniang only knew a long time later how much effort Empress Xiao had put into settling her own affairs, and she became more and more respectful in serving Empress Xiao. Now that Qin Ying has bought a house and taken Mei Sanniang out of Xiao's house, Mei Sanniang will still go to Xiao's house every few days to visit Queen Xiao. She is an important benefactor that Mei Sanniang will never forget in her life.
Hou Junji was kind to Mei Sanniang in the past, but he took kindness to repay him and turned his kindness into revenge. And Empress Xiao basically gave Mei Sanniang a great life-saving grace unconditionally, and did not take the initiative to ask for anything in return.
The relationship between these three people is complicated, and if they meet in Xuandu, they don't know what to do.
Qin Ying wanted to hold his forehead and sigh now. (To be continued.) )
