Chapter Thirty-Eight: The Master of the Imperial Temple!
King Xuan suddenly spoke up and explained her confusion: "I once saw you, but I just passed by, I never really looked at you head-on, and I never saw you wearing rouge! When you're in a better mood one day, you can show it to me, okay? ”
"Good!" Liu Mengyan agreed without hesitation, because she thought, no matter what, on the day of marriage, rouge must be used, and it will not be wasted! Silently put away the things, put the hairpin in his hair, and happily followed King Xuan back to the banquet.
As soon as she went back, she saw many people looking at her, and when she listened carefully, she found that the general meaning of these people was that she once relied on the princess for her glory. All her princesses are infinitely tolerant, her birthday is more magnificent than the prince, and now that the princess is dead, she is so depressed that she never even mentioned her birthday, but came to congratulate Xiao Luan Mo on his birthday.
Liu Mengyan rolled her eyes, she is really a down-and-out phoenix is not as good as a chicken, not to mention, she is not down-down!
pouted, poked the food in the bowl with an unhappy face, and poked it hard like those with broken mouths, for fear that it would not die! And in fact, it really can't be poked to death!
Although I was very happy to receive the gifts from King Xuan and Xiao Lumo today, I was still very angry when I heard these people speak. It wasn't until the emperor stretched out his hand to bring out a tray that everyone's eyes were drawn to it.
The emperor got up, took the tray, walked in front of Liu Mengyan, put the tray on her table, unveiled it, and it was actually a set of water jade headdresses! Everyone exploded at once, and everyone knew that water jade was unique to Nanguo, and only the royal family could deserve it. And the emperor directly came up with a complete set this time, which is really surprising and embarrassing!
"Nettle, I know that you are very sad after the death of the princess, don't be afraid, my uncle will give you every birthday in the future! This set of water jade was once given by Nanguo, and I ordered someone to create a set of headdresses for you, each with your name engraved on it! The emperor said with a greasy look.
The startled Liu Mengyan completely forgot where she was, looked at Shui Yu blankly, and then looked at the emperor. The surrounding ministers began to mumble again, and Liu Mengyan knew that it must be saying that she was pampered and arrogant, and did not understand etiquette and other bad things. But she really didn't know what to do, so she rolled her eyes and fell back. Fainted!
For the sake of realism, Liu Mengyan fell very naturally, her head hit the floor and her painful brain buzzed, but her face didn't even frown. Let the emperor look at her blankly, and his heart was still beating: Isn't he frightened?
Not only was I scared, I was scared to death! But she pretended to be dizzy, which scared the emperor not to say anything, but also scared King Xuan. He picked her up across the table, and without saying a word, walked to the resting palace.
After walking a few steps, I slowed down and relaxed a lot. The emperor glanced at the direction of King Xuan and ordered someone to bring the water jade and send it. Then, continue to stay in charge of the big picture.
"There's no one left, stop pretending!" King Xuan gently put her down and knocked her on the forehead: "I'm scared to death!"
"Hey, hey!" Liu Mengyan opened her eyes and sat up, "It's not because the emperor suddenly gave me such a valuable gift. Now that my mother has passed away, I wish he didn't spoil me anymore! Don't be like this, it's easy to attract jealousy! ”
King Xuan smiled: "He actually wants to spoil you, and spoil you to the point that no one dares to mess with you, so he can rest assured!"
"The hypocrisy and cruelty of the human heart is never as simple as it seems. No one dares to mess with me just on the surface, behind the scenes, maybe they will all work together to bring me down! ”
King Xuan spread his hands helplessly and pointed to the tray on the table: "That can't be helped, your imperial uncle has already ordered someone to send Shui Yu, yours!"
This birthday can be regarded as a frightening and heavy fright. As a result, when she went home, she was already tired and was about to collapse, and she looked at the handkerchief, and there was a nettle on it, but when she saw the faint Xuan character on the handkerchief, she was so excited that she couldn't sleep!
Mo Yuhang returned home and sat on a chair and pondered! He knew that Liu Mengyan was not his daughter, but he never knew who her father was. Looking at the extent to which the emperor favored Liu Mengyan, he once suspected that it was the emperor's daughter, and seeing that he personally gave Liu Mengyan a gift tonight, the meaning could not be more obvious. Thinking of this, he slapped angrily on the table: "The people of the royal family, it is really dirty, it was really blind to my dog eyes at the beginning, actually, actually, actually, alas!"
Mo Yuhang slapped his hand in pain, and finally said secretly: "No, even if it is the emperor's daughter, she must die!" As for the emperor, he will also have to pay the price! "There is such a thing as a green hat, it is not said that you wear it, since you brought it to me, you have to accept the consequences! So he looked at him fiercely and started a new round of planning.
A few days later, Liu Mengyan ran to the palace again and went out to play with Xiao Ranmo. Xiao Lumo has nothing to do, of course he is willing to play. It was also him who triumphantly ran to King Xuan to show off: "Jing Xuan, a certain county lord invited me to go out to play, it seems that someone still can't do it!"
"Oh, that's because Benwang has recently contracted a cold and is not suitable for going out." King Xuan's words obviously meant that Xiao Zhanmo was a spare tire, and it was because he was unwell that he went to find Xiao Zhanmo.
Xiao Lumo retorted while being suspicious: "Wind cold? I see where you are getting caught with the cold? Besides, even if you are infected with wind and cold, you can't go to the Imperial Temple, Bishui Lake, and Maple Leaf Forest! ”
"I can't do anything about my body, so I can only be sorry for Nettle. It's really wronged to let her walk with you."
"You!" Xiao Lumo was exhausted: "I'm too lazy to bother with you, so you're jealous, hum!"
Early the next morning, Xiao Mo and the others rode their horses and prepared to gallop all the way to the Imperial Temple. The autumn scenery is also beautiful, and when the two of them are halfway there, they stop galloping and sit on horseback and walk leisurely.
"Nettle!" Xiao Lumo shouted.
Liu Mengyan turned her head in surprise: "Hey, why did you change your name?"
"Nettle!" Xiao Lumo stopped his horse and looked very serious: "Jing Xuan, he's very good!" But there seemed to be someone in him. There are two portraits hanging in his room from childhood to adulthood, one is my mother, and the other one I don't know who it is, he just said, surnamed Bai! ”
"If you have a portrait, you don't necessarily like her!" Although Liu Mengyan was a little unhappy, she still chose to believe him.
"I know, I just wanted to remind you that there is such a person. Maybe one day, she'll be back. Be prepared! Xiao Lumo just wanted to say: "If she comes back, there will definitely be a gap between you, you have to deal with it reasonably, don't be blinded by illusions!"
"Hmm!" Liu Mengyan nodded: "I know, thank you!" She knew that she had seen this situation on TV. That person must be an old lover, the one who left deep memories in his heart. Although I know, my heart is still sour.
"Alright, let's go!" Xiao Lumo tugged at the horse rope: "I'm just reminding you, it's not that this situation will definitely happen." Also, I'm sure Jing Xuan will be good to you. If you have any difficulties, just look for me, I'm also your cousin! ”
I know that the odds are high, but isn't it yet there? Forget it, don't think about it! "Well, let's go, play with me!"
"Let's go!" Xiao Lumo answered, and then galloped forward, and Liu Mengyan also hurriedly followed. It didn't take long to arrive at the Imperial Temple, which is very magnificent, after all, it is an exclusive temple built by the royal family. The people who come here to offer incense are either princes and nobles or rich and powerful people, and the money donated for incense is a lot of money.
As soon as I walked in, I felt a strong aura of gods. I don't know how to describe this feeling, but I think of the shock of a person who has never been out of the house to see the Great Wall for the first time. I got goosebumps all over my body, it turned out that this was the ancient building, magnificent and shocking! Compared with those modern tofu scum projects, it is simply a product made by God! Although the ancient people and ideas were backward, the architecture was really strong!
Liu Mengyan's tears of excitement were about to flow out, and she walked inside step by step. Looking at the Buddha statues of different shapes, a kind of respect arises spontaneously. Xiao Luomo may have seen too much, he looked like he didn't care, leaning against the door, with a grass in his mouth, like a little rascal!
Liu Mengyan smiled, turned her head and continued to look at the temple, only to find that a monk suddenly appeared in front of her. The monk clasped his hands in front of his chest, smiled honey, and didn't speak for a long time, looking mysterious.
Liu Mengyan was very worried in her heart, often at this time, they were all eminent monks, and he would say to himself: The donor is not a person in this world, his own life has been exhausted, and he has the breath of death...... and so on, a bunch of clever words, which are convincing! If she is now revealed, what if she is beheaded! Hurry, no, you must die and not admit it, you must be calm!
After thinking about it, Liu Mengyan lifted her breath, then smiled slightly, stretched out her hand and folded her chest to the monk and said, "Amitabha, good master!"
Then the monk smiled and bowed to her: "Amitabha, can the donor give the sesame oil money first?"
"Huh?" What the? Liu Mengyan put countless question marks in her mind, what is the situation? Shouldn't he be a master of scheming? As a result, I asked for sesame oil money!! This, this, how good is it for her!
"The wind is strong and I don't hear clearly, you say it again!" Liu Mengyan said with the corners of her mouth pulled.
How do you know that the monk's smile stiffened for a moment: "Donor, the little monk just said, please donor add some sesame oil to the temple!"
"Oooh!" After Liu Mengyan made sure that she heard correctly, she took out a few pieces of broken silver from her pocket and put them into the merit phase. The monk immediately closed his eyes and bowed to Liu Mengyan: "Amitabha, thank you!"
Liu Mengyan smiled awkwardly and squinted her eyes to look around: "Where is your master?"
The monk said proudly: "The little monk is the master!"
Liu Mengyan asked: "Dare to ask the master's number?"
"Stingy!" The monk said without changing his face. Countless sparks rose in Liu Mengyan's heart, and she actually said that she was stingy and looked down on people too much! So, he took out his bag and threw in the broken silver again. Then I looked at the monk, but I didn't expect the monk to still say two words: "Stingy!"
Liu Mengyan threw the whole bag in, see if you still say that I am stingy!
The monk still replied, "Stingy!"
"!" Rima, this person is too cunning! Shameless!
Liu Mengyan ran away while chattering. Xiao Lumo didn't see where he went, so he walked around and looked for him by the way. But she didn't notice that as soon as she left with her front foot, the monk put his hand into the merit and took out the money with his back foot: "These rich people are easy to deceive!"
"Dead thing, you're cheating money again!" An angry roar in the distance: "Don't roll over to me yet!"
So, the monk complained: I was found again! With the silver in his hand, he went to the courtyard where the sound came from!
"Master!" Then he handed over the silver: "It's all here!"
A bamboo stick slapped on his hand: "How many times have I told you, don't deceive the new female donor, you are deaf, right?"
The monk shook in pain, almost didn't hold the silver, and muttered in his heart: Yes, I am not allowed to deceive, leave it to you to deceive!
"Okay, you imperial uncle, who are you deceiving?" Xiao Lumo suddenly appeared, strung behind him, took a stick of grass and swept it on the emperor's shiny bald head: "I haven't seen you for a few months, the emperor's bald head is much brighter!"
Uncle Huang turned around and slapped Xiao Lumo with a bamboo stick: "Stinky boy, as soon as you come, you will tease the elders, see if I don't kill you!"
Xiao Lumo shouted while hiding: "You fight, if you don't kill me today, tomorrow I will let everyone in the world know that you are a liar, and you are cheating money every day!"
The incense equipment of the imperial temple and all kinds of maintenance funds were paid by the emperor for him. But he just likes to collect money, and others think that the income of the imperial temple belongs to the palace, but in fact, it is all in the hands of the imperial uncle. He's super rich, but he's super stingy. When the money arrives in his hands, there is really no return. And he is so rich, a person's savings are about to catch up with half of the national treasury, but he is the kind of super rich slave who spends a copper plate for three days!
Hearing this, Uncle Huang became honest, walked forward with a smile, pulled him and asked, "Ouch, my good nephew, it's not right to be Uncle Huang just now, come on, let Uncle Huang see, have you hit?"
The monk who was watching the play over there was secretly stuffing silver into his pocket, and just stuffed it into his arms, before he could take it out, he heard an angry roar: "Don't move!"
As soon as he looked up, his master was looking at him: "Take it out, you can't even lose a corner!"
The little monk had no choice but to take out the silver, put it on the ground, and pushed it forward, don't look over his head and not look at the silver on the ground. He finally understood that no matter where he was or where his heart was, his master's first concern would always be on the silver!
"Xiao Luomo!" Liu Mengyan finally came over and looked at the scene: "Why are you here, let me find it for a while, I thought I was going somewhere, but as a result, the special thing is actually in the same place!"
"I'm not leaving!" Xiao Lumo jumped on the stone table in the yard: "I just found a bush and lay down for a while!"
"What is this?" Uncle Huang immediately stood up solemnly and straightened out his clothes: "Donor......"
"Don't pretend!" Xiao Lumo patted his shiny head: "My own people, what are you pretending!"
"Jing'er, this is my imperial uncle, my father's youngest brother, my own brother!" Xiao Ranmo introduced: "But he gave up the opportunity to be a prince and had to come to be a monk, you say it's not weird, hahaha~"
Uncle Huang? This looks, it's just like a b, which point looks like a royal man? However, it is very similar to Xiao Lumo hahaha. However, looking like that, he is in his early twenties, at most twenty-three or fourteen years old. "Why is your imperial uncle always so young?"
Xiao Lumo said teasingly: "You don't know that there is a saying, it's called the old man, the old man, he is, hahaha!"
Uncle Huang kept rolling his eyes on the side, if it weren't for the money, he wouldn't be so stubborn, hum!
"What is this talking about? So lively! Everyone was stunned, why did this voice look so much like King Xuan's! Everyone looked at the gate of the courtyard, and sure enough, King Xuan casually shook the folding fan and walked out!
"What's wrong with this? Aren't you happy to see this king? Looking at Liu Mengyan's surprised look, King Xuan asked with a smile.
"No, no, happy! You, you, how could you be here! Liu Mengyan was really happy, she didn't expect to meet him here, so her heart beat faster and she was slightly flustered.
King Xuan pointed to the master (Xiao Hongli): "This king came to find the host for some things, but I didn't expect to meet you!" ”
Liu Mengyan laughed embarrassedly: "What a coincidence, hehe!"
King Xuan knocked her head with a folding fan: "Silly girl!"
Xiao Luan Mo couldn't stand it anymore: "Hey, hey, Jing Xuan, it's so unfair, it's stingy here (little monk, his master thinks he's stingy, whether he agrees or not, the law name must be called stingy!) There are four of them, and you only greet one person, what does that mean? ”
"What do you mean, you don't understand?" King Xuan asked rhetorically.
"......" Xiao Lumo turned around and walked to the emperor's side: "Do you see it?"
Uncle Huang nodded: "It seems, I probably saw it!"
King Xuan smiled and asked her, "Jing'er, how about I take you to the temple for a walk?"
The three of them squatted in a row: "Look, they said they had something to do with me, but they didn't even say hello to me!"
Xiao Lumo took the grass and bit the grass with his teeth to shake it up and down: "The power of love, probably like this!"
Treat people as nothing, treat people as air! I only see each other in my eyes, I am affectionate and secret, so chic and comfortable, so romantic and beautiful!
Liu Mengyan wanted to go, but she was afraid of being seen. People are like this, when they have nothing, they are so right. When you do it, you'll find that the two of you are doing nothing.
King Xuan knew what she was worried about, and he was also concerned about her safety, so he turned his head to Xiao Luomo, who was squatting on the side, and said, "Zhuangmo, come and walk with us!"
"What? I? Xiao Lumo stood up in surprise: "Why, I'm not going!"
"Not going?" King Xuan smiled a little sinisterly: "If you don't go back to this king, tell the emperor that you didn't practice martial arts for a whole month last month!"
"You!" Xiao Lumo pointed at him, couldn't speak for a long time, and finally flicked his sleeves, put his head together, and followed them. Listening to them talking and laughing, when he met someone passing by, he had to pretend to be involved in a few words. In fact, he didn't have the right to intervene at all, and he gritted his teeth when he was angry!
I was happy to go out to play with her, but I was so angry that I went back to the palace and lay on the bed, but I didn't fall asleep for half the night. Early the next morning, the two made an appointment to go to Bishui Lake, and as soon as they arrived, they saw King Xuan sitting by the lake fishing, and he was so angry that he wanted to commit suicide by jumping into the lake!
