Chapter Ninety-One: White Horse Temple

Baili Yanqing didn't know that the eldest lady and Cui Yingying had been thinking about the bracelet on her hand, and early this morning, Baili Yanqing followed the old lady's team and took the carriage with the sign of Baili Mansion towards the White Horse Temple.

There are still several temples in the suburbs of Beijing, but the White Horse Temple is different, when the third emperor of the Great Xia Kingdom, Xia Shizu, gave the throne to Xia Shengzu, and went to the White Horse Temple to become a monk, and the law name is Master Yuanzhen.

Although Emperor Xia Shizu Master Yuanzhen has gone to immortals, the White Horse Temple is different from many temples, because the royal family attaches great importance to the White Horse Temple, the status of the White Horse Temple is naturally higher than other temples. Moreover, the White Horse Temple has a good reputation and is far away, and many people go to the White Horse Temple to pray to God and worship the Buddha, and the incense is still flourishing.

Today, the old lady took the three-room daughter-in-law, returned my granddaughter-in-law, and grandchildren's daughter-in-law to the White Horse Temple to incense, escorted by Baili Chenghui and Baili Chengsong.

Baili Yanqing sat with the eldest lady, Cui Yingying, Baili Yanyu, and Baili Wenji, and Mo Yan also squeezed up, making Baili Yanqing breathe a sigh of relief, otherwise she would feel very uncomfortable sitting with the eldest lady and Cui Yingying.

The old lady and the eldest lady can't get along, so they have always been with the second lady, after all, they are still cousins.

This team was very lively, not only did the concubines go, but also the aunts who had children in each room also went with their children.

It is rare to be able to come out of the back house, especially the aunt, it is even more difficult to get out of the house. When gathering at the gate of Baili Mansion, Baili Yanqing could look at the eyes of the aunts who tried their best to hide and delight, and couldn't help but feel that she was happy, fortunately she was the daughter of Baili Mansion, not other identities, if she crossed to the brothel or the aunt's body, she felt that her life must be very miserable.

She doesn't know how to fight, she doesn't have much calculating at all, although she also thinks that if she is in that environment, she can't. But in order to survive, it will definitely be.

But she doesn't like that kind of life, needless to say, the woman in the Qinglou is not a haode, she is an aunt in the backyard, not to mention a haode, she can't help her all her life, and she has to look at people's faces everywhere, and even after giving birth to a son, she is still the most stained.

My aunt is just a half-master and half-servant, and she is just a good concubine or a noble concubine. The flat wife doesn't have to think about it. In this big family, there are few equal wives, and with a flat wife, other people's daughters have to be scrupulous if they want to marry in the past.

However, when Baili Yanqing arrived in the Great Xia Kingdom, she experienced the fact that the daughter of the Tang family became the equal wife of Cui Erye, and the Tang family agreed to forget it, but I didn't expect the Cui family to agree, which made Baili Yanqing very incomprehensible.

It's just that her head is not enough, so she doesn't think about it much. Naturally, we will know later.

What happens to the Tang family now, it is not a matter of Baili Yanqing's concern, Tang Zhaoyi and the four princes in the palace look a little isolated, and self-protection has become a problem.

Although Baili Yanqing knew that Tang Zhaoyi was not unable to protect herself. was just worried about something, and the murder of the fourth prince also made Tang Zhaoyi a little frustrated. But from another point of view, it's not bad that the four princes are stupid now. At least not a rake.

After all, Emperor Xia Hui is still young, and now he has five princes, and there will be more in the future. The future heir is cruel, and the previous history tells her that a prince from a low background does not mean that he has no chance to be an emperor.

"Madame, it's here." As soon as the carriage stopped, I heard the sound of a girl outside.

Baili Yanqing also heard the sound of the morning bell at this time, from far to near, after getting off the car one after another, as soon as she looked up, she saw the simple and magnificent temple halfway up the mountainside, and there were eight BMW horses in front of the temple, like eight horses.

Sure enough, the incense is at its peak, looking at the smoke curling and the rising smoke, there is a feeling of being in a wonderful fairyland. It's a pity that the smell of incense is too strong, which makes Baili Yanqing a little unaccustomed, but it is undeniable that the White Horse Temple is very famous, and many people have already gone up the mountain to seek Buddha early in the morning.

Although everyone is equal in front of the Buddha, when the distinguished guests arrive at the temple, the Buddha will still come out to greet them.

This is only the foot of the mountain, the temple is halfway up the mountain, they have to get off the carriage first when they get to the foot of the mountain, and then bow to the temple first reverently before returning to the carriage and go up the mountain.

"Daddy, I'm going to walk up with you." After bowing, Baili Yanqing didn't want to go back to the carriage, so she said to Baili Chenghui.

People who go up the mountain to seek the Buddha and are sincere generally walk up the long 999 steps. But the general female dependents are pampered, and they are in the inner courtyard and do not exercise, so they rarely come out, so it is difficult to climb up.

Among the female dependents, everyone glanced at Baili Yanqing, and felt that Baili Yanqing's tone was so big, they didn't dare to say that they would climb up, Baili Yanqing, a five-year-old girl, actually wanted to climb the stairs.

At that moment, the eldest lady reprimanded: "Nonsense." ”

The old lady and the others looked at Baili Yanqing disapprovingly, thinking that this child was too troublesome, so Haode could just go up in the carriage with them, and climb the stairs by everyone.

If it's a young teenager, it's okay, but a little girl, they are very unfavorable.

"Qing'er, listen to your grandmother, and follow your mother in the carriage." Cui Yingying coaxed Baili Yanqing softly, like coaxing an ignorant child.

"Qing'er, I'll climb with you." Mo Yan stood beside Baili Yanqing and said supportively.

The monk who came to pick up Baili Mansion didn't say anything, but looked at Baili Yanqing's eyes with a slight smile, nobles come to pray to God and worship Buddha, and they rarely climb the ladder, but the nobles have the most sesame oil money. And whether the temple incense is prosperous or not depends on the generosity of the nobles, although the monk is a vegetarian, but also has to live, not to mention that the temple also needs incense to inherit.

In particular, when the royal family and the family arrive at the temple, they will inform in advance, and there will be monks who will come out to greet and arrange a rest.

Baili Chenghui agreed: "Okay, Qing'er climbed up with me." ”

"Qing'er is messing around, why don't you come nonsense." The eldest lady glared at Baili Chenghui.

"It's okay, Qing'er can't climb up, and I'm there." Baili Chenghui said.

Cui Yingying wanted to say something, but she didn't refute Baili Chenghui, but Baili Yanyu, Yanmeng, Yanhui and Baili Wenxiu all wanted to be with Baili Yanqing, but their aunt didn't want her daughter to join in the fun. However, no one cared about Baili Wenxiu, and Aunt Song was not released, so she couldn't come together, so even if she followed Baili Yanqing, no one said anything about him.

"Father, I want it too." Baili Yanjiao said to Baili Chengsong.

Originally, Baili Chengsong didn't want to climb up, but when he saw Baili Chenghui climbing, he didn't want to ride a horse.

"It's not too early, let's get in the car." The old lady didn't care anymore, and took the lead in getting into the carriage first.

As soon as the old lady left, everyone also got into the carriage, leaving only Baili Chenghui and Baili Yanqing, Mo Yan and Baili Wenxiu, as well as Baili Chengsong and Baili Yanjiao, father and daughter.

After the old lady's carriage left, Baili Chenghui also began to take the children to climb the stairs.

Nine hundred and ninety-nine steps, no wonder those female relatives lost their color when they heard it, Baili Yanqing only stepped down a dozen steps and already felt that her steps were heavy.

Looking up at the top, it was a little far away, but today this staircase, she walked the staircase.

However, Baili Yanqing and Mo Yan were okay, because they learned martial arts, so it was quite easy at the beginning. But Baili Wenxiu was a little sweaty, but he still gritted his teeth and persevered, Baili Chenghui was a little impressed by the children, he himself was a little tired, he didn't expect the children to persevere.

Especially Baili Yanqing, Baili Chenghui thought that after a few steps, Baili Yanqing would let him carry it, he was ready, but his daughter didn't give face.

It's that Baili Chengsong is not as smooth as Baili Yanqing, Baili Yanjiao has been coquettish since she was a child, and when she saw Baili Yanqing wanting to climb, she wanted to climb too, but after climbing, she knew that it was not easy to climb.

"Father, Jiao'er's feet hurt, I want to hug you." Baili Yanjiao stretched out her hand towards Baili Chengsong.

Usually, Baili Chengsong is most fond of this daughter, that is, the son-in-law was born, and the status of the daughter has not changed. But looking at Baili Yanqing comparing her daughter, Baili Chengsong was a little dissatisfied, at the same age, she also grew up in the same house, but Baili Yanqing could insist, but her daughter couldn't.

They didn't climb fast, after all, there were children, and the children were very small.

Baili Chengsong has always been very dissatisfied with Baili Chenghui, and he doesn't even want his children to lose to Baili Chenghui's children. But Baili Chenghui is the son of the long house, and he is the son of the second room, and the identity of Baili Chenghui's heir makes Baili Chengsong even more unconvinced.

How can he, who is proud of his talents, willing to surrender to Baili Chenghui.

"Jiao'er go again." Baili Chengsong coaxed Baili Yanjiao and said.

"Woo, father, Jiao'er can't walk anymore, her leg hurts. Jiao'er don't climb, don't climb. Baili Yanjiao cried on the spot, she wanted to turn back and take the carriage, she didn't want to climb up.

But generally you can't climb, but if you climb, you have to continue walking, otherwise it will be disrespectful to the Buddha, so Baili Chengsong simply picked up Baili Yanjiao and walked forward. But I've only walked a dozen steps, and there are more than 900 more, so it's very tiring to hold it like this.

"Go, go, go, go." Baili Yanqing hummed a small tune and encouraged herself, this was the first outdoor sport in her two lifetimes combined, so she must persevere.

"Qing'er, stop singing, leave your strength." The corners of Mo Yan's mouth curled slightly, he shook his head, and his steps became lighter.

Baili Chenghui also agreed with Mo Yan's words, but he also shook his head and laughed as he listened to Mo Yan humming a little tune.

"Second brother, let me hug Jiao'er, you can take a rest." Compared with Baili Chengsong, Baili Chenghui is relaxed.

It's a pity that Baili Chengsong didn't want to appreciate it, and said politely: "Brother Xiexie, don't worry, I can do it." ”

Baili Chenghui didn't care, watching Baili Chengsong pass him, he walked up several steps with Baili Yanqing in his arms, and distanced himself from them-
