Ye Temple is located in the southwest of Chang'an City Chongde Fang, for the royal temple, generally placed in the royal family without a concubine, Zhenguan 23 years, after the death of Tang Taizong Wu Meiniang is here to become a monk, spent her three years of the saddest life trough.

Today, Ganye Temple ushered in a new monk, Li Jingyan, the county lord of Pingyang in the Tang Dynasty, and there is no shortage of people who became monks and nuns in the Tang Dynasty, almost every emperor has a daughter and a monk, but most of them are for the same purpose, to obtain a free identity, and not to the Buddha and the Buddha.

As soon as the sky was bright, Li Jingyan went out, she didn't apply powder, plain clothes and white skirts, the morning sun shone on her body and face, her hair was as black as black jade, her eyes were as gentle as antelopes, her cheeks were slightly thin and thin, between her eyebrows, she was originally full of hopeful vitality, but now it was thinly shrouded in a layer of anxiety and sadness.

Li Jingyan went out, through the back door, low-key and not showy, a light carriage, no maids to serve, only the curtain has been with her, and there is a father who leaned on the door and stared at her far away and refused to look back for a long time.

Li Jingyan bit her lip from time to time, leaned weakly in front of the car window, and looked at the sky blankly, looking sad and lost.

She once almost became a monk in Yangzhou, but when she retracted this step, she no longer had this thought, she just wanted to quietly taste her hard-won happiness, but happiness hid turmoil, and this time she stepped into the ancient Buddha again.

"Are you worried that the fake will come true?" The curtain saw Li Jingyan's melancholy.

"I don't know what I'm worried about, I feel that my heart is blank, the future is difficult and confused, as if I can't see a way out, I, I'm a little scared."

Li Jingyan sighed slightly, "Sister Lian'er, did you say that Li Lang came back today?" ”

"He might come!" The curtain smiled reluctantly, in fact, Li Qing was so busy with the establishment of the official cabinet shop that she didn't even have time to eat in the past few days, so she arranged Li Jingyan's affairs for Li Qinglai, and according to him, today will be the first party, how can he have time.

"If Li Lang really can't come, what if I'm still here?"

The curtain took Li Jingyan's hand, only to feel that her hand was extremely cold, and she was still trembling slightly, although she was only a few months older than Li Jingyan, but at this moment, like a big sister, she hugged Li Jingyan's shoulders tightly, passed her body temperature to her, and said in a firm tone: "Don't be afraid!" I will stay with you until we go home together. ”

The carriage turned a corner, left Suzaku Street, and walked along the wall of Anye Fang, and a few miles ahead to Chongde Fang, where Ganye Temple is located in the northeast corner of Chongde Fang.

Suddenly, the speed of the carriage slowed down significantly, as if someone was blocking the road in front of her, Li Jingyan, who was leaning on the window of the car in reverie, looked forward in surprise, there was a wide and straight road ahead, only a few passers-by were walking on the side, there was no special situation, but when she was about to retract her head from the window, she suddenly froze, just a few hundred steps behind her, there were two or three hundred cavalry guards following in small steps, just among the cavalry, Li Qing was dressed in a blue robe and long robe, and his smile was vague, Li Jingyan only felt that his eye sockets were sour, She leaned back on the cushion and closed her eyes, tears of happiness finally rolling out from under her long eyelashes, and the knot in her heart that had worried her most was untied.

"Li Lang hasn't forgotten me, he's behind!"

.

Ganye Temple is a place for female nuns to participate in Zen, especially involving many harem concubines, men are not allowed to enter, several eunuchs in the palace and the host of Ganye Temple are waiting at the gate, the carriage of the lord of Pingyang slowly approached, the car door opened, Li Jingyan stepped out of the car door with the support of the curtain, and the slender ** finally stepped on this temple that broke the intestines of countless women, she looked up, only to see that the temple was large-scale, and the glazed tiles were shining under the reflection of the sun, coating the roof of the entire temple with a layer of gold, and the temple gate was old and mottled, The vermilion paint has peeled off a lot, and there is no one in sight, and it looks dull, only a few wrinkled old nuns are standing at the door, looking at this young and beautiful Tang County Lord with sympathetic eyes, and there is no trace of green silk under the monk's hat.

Li Jingyan's heart suddenly panicked, she grabbed the curtain's hand, suddenly looked back, only to see Li Qing standing a hundred steps away looking at herself, her eyes were soft and full of confidence, Li Jingyan's heart settled down a little, let go of the curtain's hand, and strode towards the host of Ganye Temple.

"Mrs. Shi, she is the lord of Pingyang County who came to become a monk by order, and the person has been sent, please ask Mrs. Shi to draw here, and I will return to the palace to reply to the decree."

A eunuch couldn't wait to open the handed book and handed over the clay box.

The host of the Ganye Temple is an old nun, the legal name is difficult to understand, she has been in the Ganye Temple for 50 years, full of vicissitudes, the years have worn away the characteristics of her woman, she does not wear a monk's hat, the bald head is dazzling and clear in the sun, a pair of sharp eyes directly at the bottom of the heart, it looks extremely hideous.

She has seen countless wealthy ladies from ice and snow jade skin to goosebumps and crane hair evolution, has long been hard as iron, no longer a trace of sympathy, today is the Pingyang County Lord to wear the guilt to practice, the emperor's edict is ambiguous, only said that she temporarily to the sense of karma practice, but did not have a clear period of practice, similar edicts she has seen a lot, this is a contradictory mentality of the emperor, both want to let these women once, but also hope that the wrong will be wrong, let them practice forever, in order to protect the royal face. It is difficult to understand that Lao Ni naturally understands the emperor's heart, she looked at this mellow and beautiful girl, known as the first beauty of the Tang royal family, and her heart sneered, since she was here, did she think she was just here for an outing?

She casually pressed her handprint on the book, which was regarded as accepting Li Jingyan, and after a few eunuchs hurriedly left, she glanced at Li Jingyan, and her mouth was hoarse and old

It's like a broken gong strike.

"Now that you have arrived at Lao Nun, you are no longer the lord of the royal family, just an ordinary little nun, you must not put up a royal frame, you must not listen to the call, you must not be arrogant and rude, do you hear?"

She saw that Li Jingyan was silent, and did not reply to herself, and her heart was even more jealous, and she saw that her long hair was like a waterfall and her white clothes were dusty, so she took the razor in her left hand, touched her head with her right hand, and said coldly: "You kneel, the rule of entering the Ganye Temple is to break the three thousand dust first, and then enter the temple." "This is the most effective way to deal with such noble women, as long as the green silk is shaved off, their spirits will collapse.

Li was shocked, her father had originally told her that she was leading the hair to practice for three months, but how had it changed again, she instinctively stepped back, avoiding the withered hands like the claws of the old nun.

"Didn't you say that it was good to lead the practice? Why should I be shaved? ”

Unable to understand his face, "This is a royal temple, the old nun only listens to the emperor's holy decree, and the holy decree does not say the word with hair, so you must lose your hair!" With a short snort, more than a dozen tall and fat nuns walked out of the temple and pressed towards Li Jingyan with a fierce momentum.

At this moment, a flower appeared in front of the difficult eyes, and I saw two powerful arrows. She found that there were three men standing a hundred paces in front of her, a young man in a blue robe with a smile, and behind him stood a soldier, one holding a longbow and one holding a steel crossbow, his eyes were as cold as snow, exuding murderous intent, and the old nun looked back at the tail of the arrow that was still trembling and trembling, and touched his ears again, and his face instantly turned dead gray, and his legs were weak, and he collapsed to the ground.

The sound of horses' hooves gradually sounded, and a large group of cavalry poured out from both sides of the temple, and in a moment surrounded the gate of Ganye Temple like an iron bucket, surrounded the curtain and Li Jingyan, and more than a dozen tall and fat nuns were so frightened that they retreated again and again, but the temple gate had been blocked, and no one could go back.

"Who are you? This is a royal temple, so you can't go wild here! Unable to understand being helped up by the two old nuns, his voice trembling and said to the blue-robed young man who walked with a smile.

Li Qing walked up slowly, squatted in front of her, looked up at the sky, looked at the ground, and said with a smile: "This is not Ganye Temple, Ganye Temple is still two zhang away, I am only a passerby at most." ”

He pointed at Li Jingyan, shook his head and sighed: "Such a fairy-like beauty wants to accompany the ancient Buddha for a long time, and even the Buddha Lord can't bear it, so he ordered me to draw a sword to help and come to stop it!" ”

"Do you know who she is and why she is a monk? Are you so bold and reckless, aren't you afraid of offending Long Yan and condemning you? His throat rang a little, but as soon as he touched the cold gaze of Wu Xingsu and Li Fei Shouyu, his tone immediately softened, "This is the county lord of Pingyang, who is ordered to become a monk, don't get into trouble." ”

Li Qing laughed, "Who will believe your words, then where is your holy will?" Let me see, if it's true, I'll leave at once! ”

Seeing Li Qing pretending to be a ghost there, the curtain next to him was secretly amused, so he turned around and whispered to Li Jingyan and laughed: "Do you think this old nun will really come up with a holy decree?" ”

"I don't know!"

Li Jingyan shook her head, she was glad that Li Lang stepped forward to save herself, but she was worried about him, if this matter spread to the palace, Li Lang would really be reprimanded by the emperor.

It was difficult to understand suddenly, what was passing by, this young man was clearly here for Li Jingyan, she immediately remembered the rumors of the marriage of the two Li Xiang, so she pointed to Li Qing and said: "You, you are Li Qing, the household servant?" ”

"Yes, it's me!"

Li Qing smiled slightly: "I remember that the holy decree only ordered the lord of Pingyang to become a monk in Ganye Temple, and it did not say that she could not return to the world, nor did it limit her time limit for becoming a monk, ten or eight years, or even a generation, right?" ”

It was difficult to understand and be afraid, but he didn't know what Li Qing meant, so he had to nod his head.

Li Qing smiled, "Since ten or eight years is okay, then being a monk for a while is not considered to be a rebellion, since she has already become a monk, then now she is still vulgar and goes with me, Mrs. Shi, you won't object, right?" ”

He took out a counter ticket from his bosom and gently threw it on her body, "This is two thousand pieces of incense money, which can be regarded as a fate between the county lord of Pingyang and Ganye Temple." ”

"This.

As soon as Lao Ni's words fell, the arrows of Wu Xingsu and Li Fei Shouyu shot at her one after another, the soles of her feet, the sides of her legs, her waist, and the side of her face, and in a moment, dozens of arrows shot around her, and finally, Li Fei Yuanli's big axe rested lightly on her bald head, and the sharp axe blade made her head tingle.

"Old thief, the governor of my family looks up to you, you don't have to toast and don't eat and drink! If you don't believe it, the old axe has chopped you. ”

Unenlightened and almost fainted, she forcibly guarded a trace of sobriety, and fought with her upper and lower teeth: "Poor.

"The teacher is so sincere, Li Qing doesn't listen to it, but it seems that he is too disrespectful to the teacher."

Li Qing smiled happily, stepped forward and shrugged his shoulders at Li Jingyan, and spread his hand and said: "The host must order you to return to the vulgar, it seems that you have no relationship with the Buddha, let's go!" ”

Li Jingyan and the curtain looked at each other, smiles bloomed on their faces at the same time, they held hands, and ran towards the carriage quickly, like a red cloud and a white cloud flying under the blue sky.

Li Qing turned over and got on his horse, galloped past Nanwu, and left her with the last sentence, "The county lord of Pingyang has become a monk in Ganye Temple and will be a nun for life, you have to remember, this is what the emperor meant!" ”
