Chapter 16: Meditation Nunnery
After the rain, the drainage system of Chang'an City is still relatively smooth. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 The heavy rain for many days has not dispersed much of the merchants in the city, and a new round of shopping has begun in the most lively Causeway Lane, where the walls washed away by the rain need new pulp, and the wisteria trellises that have been blown away need to be newly bought. And located in the southwest of the imperial city of Siheng Street is the famous "official road", here are all the dignitaries and nobles, the royal relatives and relatives, and here it seems extremely quiet, each mansion is closed door, the sixth house is the mansion of Si Jingyi, majestic and magnificent, the door is strictly controlled, just because the king has not yet been sealed, so there is no plaque on the door, but the officials of all sizes in the capital know which family this is. A carriage sped past and stopped in front of the door.
Si Jingyi returned to the mansion with confidence, and the staff had already gathered in the left hall to discuss, and he told everyone about what he had gained in Muhou Mansion today, and only briefly said at the end that it was the Hou Mansion sisters who mentioned it, everyone always felt that Si Jingyi was modest and cautious, and thought that even if the daughter of the boudoir family was smart, she was always limited by her own vision, and she could not be as far-reaching as a man. What's more, these people rely on their own intelligence, and if they admit that they are inferior to women, it is really difficult for strong people. Therefore, although he knew that the second prince had returned from the Hou Ye's Mansion, he only felt that he had sold Mu Jinglin a favor.
Si Jingyi's discussion here is in full swing, the six princes are not so lucky, the six princes and concubines are not a person who will compete for favor, although the women in the palace are said to be expensive by their mothers, but there are more children with their mothers. The second prince is a real example, because of Xiao Guifei, the power of the second prince can develop so fast. Si Jingyang's power in the court is not as good as Si Jingyi, he naturally knows that the most important thing for civil and military officials is the strength of the prince himself, so when he was sixteen years old, he invited himself to go to the army for training, and experienced several wars that were not big or small, and beat his reputation out. And when he was in the army, the six princes were accustomed to winning people's hearts, a prince deliberately wooed, many people were loyal to him, since the victory returned, the first minister to meet him was the military department Shangshu, just because of the military quartermaster over the years, Si Jingyang just took office to find out about this matter, and knew that the military department Shangshu Jizhi Pavilion would be submissive to him. It was only because the Emperor Taishang loved to fight in the east and the west the most, and he was most disgusted with those who dared to use military funds and salaries, so all of them were severely punished for this behavior, and even their families were involved. It's just that Emperor Yuan Wen didn't pay as much attention to these as before in the future, and the atmosphere of emphasizing literature over military force in the court was getting worse and worse, so some people began to do something about it. Although Marquis Mu knew about this and had many impeachments against Ji Zhige, it was just that Emperor Yuan Wen was looking at Mu Jinglin unpleasantly and wanted to suppress it, how could he easily get his wish, and besides, although there were disputes on the border of Guozhou in recent years, most of them did not need to go to war, Emperor Yuan Wen, as long as he could not hurt him, he would be happy to watch the courtiers fight non-stop. It's just that Mu Houye and Ji Shangshu are completely evil.
The six princes did not put much effort into Emperor Yuanwen's holy decree, he himself felt that his father's head was eating those pills more and more of a woman's kindness, and the refugees of the riot could not find a name to accept it, but the one who could not be subdued was the person who secretly provoked it, and took it down with a knife, what did he do with such a thought! But there is still a way to have it, otherwise how can the military department take such an errand, Ji Zhige has not coveted this matter for a day or two, and these things have been handed over to him. Si Jingyang is just going to the street to relax these days, and no one likes it for the sake of the snake.
The Jingxin Nunnery on the outskirts of the city is a well-known nunnery, and there is an endless stream of pilgrims coming and going in the past, and there are many more new ones to pray for blessings after the rain. It is rumored that the presiding officer Hui Min is quite familiar with Buddhism, but it is rare for ordinary people to see it, so he has to give a lecture in July and can see the true face. Mu Chujin and Mu Chuse were on their way, the air on the outskirts of the city was fresh and filled with the smell of earth, all the way through the hustle and bustle of the city, and gradually drifted away. Although it is a suburb, only because the temple has received royal attention, there is a flat avenue of blue brick repair all the way, which looks no different from the official road. Mu Chuse is a non-believer in ghosts and gods, she is a soul at the end of the modern age, but she has accepted the ideas of modern science, and besides, she has been immersed in that atmosphere for a long time, even more than the years in Chang'an City. It's just that capable people can't be underestimated, and if my sister really wants to visit Mrs. Huimin, she is willing to follow. She knows that her sister is too burdened, and after her own experience, her soul has gone to the outside world, and the impact of new things has diluted her hatred a lot, but her sister is watching her relatives being Lingchi, and the family will decline in an instant, and her pressure is far more than herself. Therefore, I always love to be impulsive, but my sister is very stable and can take every step.
From the foot of the mountain, they had to go up on foot, and even though the two of them had the support of a maid, they were also sweating lightly. In front of it is the quaint meditation hermitage, although it is not as majestic as the temple of the imperial city, but it is more solemn and pious. As soon as the two stopped, they saw a girl in Tsing Yi standing up, and when they saw them, they came with a smile.
"Dare to ask, but the eldest lady and the second miss of the Hou Mansion?"
"It's us, we didn't tell Gui'an before we went out, what?"
"The donor has doubts in his heart, the host has long known, please come with me."
A group of people walked through the front yard, passed the lotus pond, and came to the meditation room in the side courtyard, this meditation room is really simple, except for the low collapse of meditation, the square table, there is nothing else. The boy in Tsing Yi led them to arrive and left on his own, just letting them in.
The two pushed the door in, and what greeted them was a thin nun with kind eyebrows, she was boiling water to make tea, and when she saw them coming, she only made a gesture of sitting, and the two knew that she was the wise master.
Mu Chujin still looked like he was related, and said to Huixin: "Master, do you know that my sister and I ........"
Master Huixin naturally felt very pity for them in her heart, she calculated a few days ago that there had been a great change in the world, and with the technique of the five elements tortoise shell, it could be calculated that the Hou Mansion Shuangshu was actually the reincarnation of resentment, but the luck of the atmosphere far overpowered the disaster of the other who was also reincarnated. It can be seen that it was the suffering in the previous life that should not be like this, so that it could be repeated. The two of them came today to seek peace of mind.
I saw her slowly speak: "What the two donors want, the poor nun knows a little bit about it." Everything in the world has an order, and so is reincarnation, reversing the will of heaven, although it is not forced, everything is man-made, and it is natural to follow ......"
