Chapter 74
Li Wenwei hurriedly explained: "Zhou Lang has a heart, I did suffer from typhoid fever during this time, but I didn't want Zhou Lang to worry, so I refused Zhou Lang's invitation, please don't be weird." She was not my personal maid, maybe I heard the doctor say that I had better not get out of bed and lie down to recuperate, so I told Zhou Lang this, my maid was spoiled by me, which made Zhou Lang smile. ”
"This, Zhou Lang is a sin, he actually let Miss Li come out, if it is blown by the wind, how can typhoid fever be more severe." Zhou Lang asked with concern, and Li Wenwei's face turned red instantly.
"It's okay, this disease has been cured for more than half a month, and now it's much better, as long as it doesn't blow the wind."
"The veil on Miss Li's face is just to keep out the wind?" Zhou Lang stared pointedly at the veil on her face.
Li Wenwei was afraid that Zhou Lang would see her face, so she tilted her head slightly and said, "Yes, wearing a veil in today's weather, you can go out of the room, otherwise Daddy really won't let me go out." ”
Li Wenwei said helplessly, but there was a trace of pride in her voice.
Master Li is a well-known good father, and he is obedient to Li Wenwei.
Speaking of going out, Zhou Lang finally remembered the purpose of coming today, and he asked gently: "I wonder if Miss Li can enjoy her face and go boating on the lake with Zhou Lang?" ”
This is what Li Wenwei dreamed of, plus the veil helped her cover her face, and she was not afraid to go out, not to mention that there was Cheng Zhen by her side, Cheng Zhen would protect her.
"Okay."
As soon as Li Wenwei agreed, she began to regret it, boating on the lake, if the wind is strong and the veil is blown off, what can she do, does she want to jump into the lake?
How could Zhou Lang give her a chance to regret it, the slender Danfeng eyes converged, and said lightly: "My carriage is outside, Miss Li, please." ”
Zhou Lang made a gesture of invitation and made way for Li Wenwei.
His tone was tough and could not be refused, Li Wenwei was hot by Zhou Lang, she agreed in a daze just now, if she refuses again, even if Zhou Lang has a good temperament, she will be angry, a humble son like Zhou Lang, he is angry, that is scary. Li Wenwei didn't dare to try, so she could only nod, and Chengzhen and Liluo followed.
on the carriage
"Zhoulang, where are we going? Is it going to Qinghu? ”
Li Wenwei asked, Qinghu Lake is a more famous lake in Shangchi, where many literati and scholars often gather, boating on the lake, chanting poems, very happy.
Zhou Lang just smiled mysteriously, and didn't say where he was going, he just said that he would know when he went, and Li Wenwei would definitely like it.
Li Wenwei blushed and nodded shyly.
She felt that Zhou Lang was surprising her.
Zhaowang's Mansion
Li Xin'er's beautiful name is King Zhao's blessing, and she found the Ling family, the Ling family has always responded to Li Xin'er's needs, but she was just told to be careful and sent a few maids and six women to follow, and the guards asked her to tell the Ouyang family that the guards in the palace were controlled by the Ouyang family.
Although she didn't have much friendship with the Ouyang family, this time Li Xin'er went up the mountain to pray for King Zhao, and she believed that the Ouyang family would not obstruct it.
Sure enough, the result was as she imagined, but the process was a little different, she felt a little looked down upon, the Ouyang clan didn't even let her enter the door, but after Sun Mo listened to her words, he sent more than a dozen guards to follow.
The dozen or so guards were simply an insult to her, and she remembered that Qin Siyu once went out of the door with fifty guards.
Danxia Mountain is at the border of the mall, there is the most prosperous Putuo Temple, Putuo Temple is a thousand-year-old temple, the incense is prosperous, many people who sincerely come to pray to God can get their wishes, so whether it is a festival or not, the people who come and go are endless.
There were many people walking, and the carriage could only be parked outside, not driven in.
Li Xin'er sat in the carriage, closed her eyes and recuperated, thinking about what excuse to use to walk around, of course, her purpose today is not really to pray for King Zhao, King Zhao has already woken up, what else to pray. She's looking for opportunities.
"Miss Li, it's here."
A voice sounded outside, Li Xin'er lifted the curtain and asked, "What's the matter?" ”
Although these people don't respect her very much, and her attitude doesn't have a trace of disgust, now that she has no background or power, they don't value her, it doesn't matter, she can change this situation one day, and then she will ask these people to help her pull her shoes.
"Are you there?"
Li Xin'er looked forward, there was still a long way ahead, and there was no temple in sight, but there were many carriages parked around.
What do you pout, a little contemptuous in your heart, the Great Zhou people, what do you know, when it comes to praying, you don't even know the rules of the temple.
"The rules of Putuo Temple, everyone must walk up the mountain, otherwise it is insincere, insincere, and the Bodhisattva will not bless." He said coldly.
Walking up? Li Xin'er looked at the steep and long road, how long would it take to walk up?
How can there be such a rule? The most famous Nanhua Temple in the Great Zhou Dynasty does not have such rules.
Seeing Li Xin'er's embarrassed and reluctant look, she said sarcastically: "Miss Li is noble, isn't it embarrassing for Miss Li to climb such a high mountain, or send a few maids to go up and add incense." ”
In fact, I don't want to go up, everything is good in Putuo Temple, the only bad thing is that the road is not easy to walk, every time I accompany the Ling family to go up, I toss her old bones to death. It takes at least a few days to recuperate.
The Ling family, that is the master who controls these subordinates, of course she has to give face, and she doesn't dare to offend. But what is Li Xin'er, a nameless and shareless woman, she even wants her to accompany her, but she is unwilling in her heart.
Li Xin'er hooked the corners of her mouth, saying it as if she was good for her everywhere, but in fact, she was digging a pit for her to step on. She brought so many people out and said that she would go up the mountain to pray for King Zhao, if she only let a few maids go up and sit down by herself, then what would those people say about her at that time? What will King Zhao think of her?
When she is Qin Siyu's stupid woman?
"No need, thank you for your kindness, let's go up."
Li Xin'er lifted the curtain and jumped off the carriage, with an awe-inspiring demeanor, without a little twist, and without stepping on her back to get off.
This is unexpected, in their impression, the women of the Great Zhou Kingdom are always twisting and pinching, and they have to talk about manners in everything.
Li Xin'er was very satisfied with the surprise and appreciation she saw in their eyes, she knew very well the folk customs that the Shang Kingdom loved, and she also knew that they didn't like the people of the Great Zhou Kingdom, she just wanted to let them know that she was not an ordinary Great Zhou people, she was very different from Qin Siyu, she was more suitable to be the mother of the Shang Kingdom.
Usually there are people who come to Putuo Mountain, ordinary people, dignitaries and nobles, when Li Xin'er and his group appeared, everyone else stepped aside to avoid it, so as not to disturb these nobles.
Li Xin'er likes to be held up by this kind of feeling of being high, she looks up and listens to the speculation of others about her, some people guess that she is the daughter of a certain official, some people guess that she is the daughter of a big businessman, and their eyes look at her with yearning and envy.
Putuo Temple has three difficulties, it is difficult to go up the mountain, it is difficult to bless, and it is difficult to host.
That is to say, it is difficult to go up the mountain, the blessing is the cloth strip that is rare in Putuo Temple to receive the chanting and prayer of the monk for a year, the length of half an arm, can be used to fold into a charm, many people who go up the mountain want to get, but unfortunately the number of blessings is limited, only a hundred, or released in different periods, so it is difficult to get the blessing, very lucky. The difficulty of hosting is to want to meet the host, which is very difficult. The host of Putuo Temple is famous, and he has a good word, but his reputation is stronger than doing good deeds. There was once a believer, is a woman in her thirties who was divorced by her husband, such a woman, it is difficult to remarry, and the object is not picky, by chance, she met Putuo Temple presided over the master of Yuan, and said that she has a prosperous husband, and suddenly the woman's reputation has been greatly improved, and the door of the house has been broken by the matchmaker, and the objects of the door-to-door marriage are all too good. It is precisely this kind of thing that those women who are divorced, whether they are married or unmarried, and are divorced, all run to Putuo Temple, just to meet Master Yuan.
After climbing for two hours, Li Xin'er and others climbed the mountain, looking at the lights in front of them, there was an endless stream of people coming and going, and there was only a wooden plaque hanging above, which said Putuo Temple with gold lacquer characters.
A few of them were used to following the Ling family, so they took Li Xin'er in familiarly, and instructed the maids to place the melons and fruits, and some of them went to light incense.
The Guanyin in front of Li Xin'er seemed to be made of white jade, looking very noble, her eyes were very kind, and she couldn't help but kneel on the grass.
The maids had already laid out the melons and fruits, Li Xin'er took the bamboo sticks and muttered in a low voice, saying that she hoped that King Zhao would recover soon, and hoped that the country and the people would be safe. This is to make a show for people to see, and Li Xin'er has always been very good at acting. Everyone saw that she was so sincere, and their rejection of her was reduced, a person from the Great Zhou Kingdom could think so much about Shangguo, why did they still suspect others.
Li Xin'er kowtowed in a real way, and the sound of snorting was very loud. Not only did the people who came to ask for a sign next to her look sideways, but even the people she brought with her were dumbfounded.
That's what she wants, and for the sake of the future, she doesn't mind being herself.
After kowtowing for ninety-nine times, when Li Xin'er raised her head, her forehead was full of blood, and her skin had long been worn out, and the blood flowed down her face and neck as she stood up.
Li Xin'er wanted to stand up, she only felt dizzy and couldn't stand steadily, they reacted immediately, and the two hurriedly stepped forward to support her, one of them held a clean brocade silk and held down the wound to prevent continued bleeding.
"Miss, what do you think?" Her voice was tikto, she was really afraid. Li Xin'er has a bit of a status in front of the Ling family, and besides, King Zhao's favor for her, who doesn't know the entire Zhao Palace.
This time, the Ling clan sent them to follow, just because they wanted them to watch her and protect her, but when the time came, they fainted and were sent back to the house, how could they recover their lives.
But they never thought that Li Xin'er would be so sincere, and she actually kowtowed ninety-nine times, asking for the well-being of King Zhao and Shangguo.
