Text 26 Temple of Mercy and Grace
Since seeing Chengyang and Lanling, Li Hong's little butt has hurt for three days, and every night before going to bed, he has to ask the palace maid to help him take some painkillers for bruises.
Lanling was much more ruthless than Chengyang, which made Li Hongda feel frightened by Lanling in his heart, and he no longer dared to be naughty in front of Lanling.
Pu Wang's Mansion is located in Yankangfang, which occupies a quarter of the area, and the mansion of Shijin Yuan makes Li Hong feel like he must go through the procedures of visiting the park before he can leave the mansion every time he goes out.
Today he was forced out of the house, a few days ago in the Chengyang princess mansion was agreed by Lanling to go to the newly built "Temple of Mercy and Grace" today to burn incense and worship the Buddha, to go to his own bad luck.
"Acting King, what should I do about this?" Xia Zhi looked at the two exquisite towers that were casually thrown in the room by Li Hong and asked.
"Put it away and put it away, don't break it, and treasure it when you return to the palace." Although these two exquisite towers are garbage in his eyes, they represent Chengyang and Lanling, and the heartfelt love for his juniors.
This intention made Li Hong's heart warm, he originally thought that there would be no such thing as family affection in the palace, but he didn't expect that Chengyang and Lanling could be generous and give themselves such a precious thing to them without hesitation.
After packing up everything, Xia Zhi and Xiaoxue accompanied Li Hong to the gate of the mansion, and the four people of Jingjing, Hua Meng, Cheetah, and Mangzhong were already waiting at the gate of the mansion.
The seven people did not wear the same luxurious and gorgeous clothes as when they were in the palace, but under Li Hong's instructions, they all changed into green clothes and plain robes, looking like an ordinary, honest son of a family with his subordinates out of the house.
Although Xia Zhi and Xiaoxue are also wearing light cyan shirts and skirts, the coarse cloth clothes still can't cover them, the delicate bodies that are developing, and the two of them are palace maids selected by Wu Mei, their faces and postures are naturally first-class, and their slim appearance still makes people reluctant to take their eyes off them.
The carriage was prepared by Li Yifu yesterday, there is no way, he has not been allowed to leave the palace yet, so there is no carriage specially equipped for him, but these Li Hong doesn't care, the ordinary carriage is good, it is enough to be able to stuff him and the two palace maids.
Mang Chong and Stunned drove on both sides of the carriage, while Cheetah and Hua Meng followed behind the carriage, and the seven began to run to the Ci'en Temple on the bustling and crowded streets of Chang'an.
In the past few days, although the little butt has been aching faintly, there is no way to stop Li Hong from browsing Chang'an City, in the past few days, Li Hong has taken them to Chang'an City is about to go around, and all the food has been tasted, Li Hong is like a free bird, and finally soared in Chang'an City.
Ci'en Temple was built in Kaimingfang, in fact, it was not far from his Pu Wang's Mansion, Li Hong intended to walk, but Xia Zhi and Xiaoxue did not agree. In the past few days, I have basically walked around Chang'an City, but it is the four palace maids who are tired, not only the legs, but the two arms are more tired than the legs.
Because the walking that the king said was that they took turns to walk with him, and the four palace maids all had sore arms than legs at the end of the day. And the acting king has now added a new problem, that is, he does not let the four cheetahs hug him, and only let the four palace maids hug him on the summer solstice.
A group of seven people arrived at Kaimingfang to park the carriage and walk on the bustling streets, which is not very eye-catching, and now the people of Chang'an City are mostly richer than other places, and most of the children of the Yin Shi family go out with their subordinates.
Although it is not as good as Li Hong to take six people out at once, it is still very common to take two or three people out in Chang'an City. In addition, there are many officials in Chang'an City, and the scene of hugging before and after going out makes the people of Chang'an City not surprised.
The entrance of the newly built Temple of Mercy and Grace is paved with bluestone slabs, and the bluestone slabs with watermarks have obviously been washed with water early in the morning.
Li Hong glanced left and right a few times, but didn't see Lanling's carriage coming, his fingers unconsciously wrapped around Xiaoxue's hair and muttered: "It's really unpunctual, and warned me not to be late, but in the end, she was late, and asked Aunt Lanling to invite us to dinner at noon." ”
"Little thing, I haven't seen my ass for a few days, and it's itchy again, and I'm beaten again, right?"
Lan Ling's voice sounded from behind him, startling Li Hong, and he hurriedly looked back, only to see that Lan Ling had only brought two maids, and then there was no one behind him.
"You...... That's all you brought with you? You're not afraid that something will go wrong. Li Hong let go of Xiaoxue's hair wrapped around his fingers, and was placed on the ground by Xiaoxue to salute Lanling and asked.
Lanling is also dressed in plain clothes and skirts, except for a bright golden step on the bun, he does not bring any other jewelry, and the whole person looks like a blooming lily, pure and elegant.
"Although Chang'an City is mixed, the three religions and nine streams are mixed in it, and the foreign merchants seem to be a little messy, but it is still very peaceful, you don't have to worry about your aunt's safety, don't you have so many people, and you can't protect your aunt."
Lanling was only two years older than Chengyang, and he was only twenty-seven or eighteen years old at this time, so he took Li Hong's hand and began to walk towards the Temple of Mercy and Grace.
Xia Zhi and Xiaoxue followed, and the four cheetahs scattered around, faintly isolating them from other pilgrims, and as for the two maids brought by Lanling, they had been sent by Lanling to play by themselves.
Li Hong looked up at the buildings in the Temple of Mercy and Grace, whether it is the scripture room or the Buddhist hall or the tribute courtyard, all the buildings here reflect the economic prosperity of the Tang Dynasty, and the painting art and carving art on the wall edge and the corridor are all beautiful, or carved with the meaning of Buddhism, Arhat, Guanyin, etc.
Obviously, it has not been opened for a long time, and there is not much incense ash in the huge incense burner, and there are special monks in each temple to take care of it.
The further back you go, the cleaner it is, the Yong'an Canal is on the side of the Ci'en Temple, and the Ci'en Temple also uses the terrain to introduce the Yong'an Canal water into a corner of the Buddhist temple and build a small release pond.
Lanling walked forward, Li Hong had no choice but to follow her, looking at her not like she was coming for the first time, as if she was familiar with the architectural pattern here.
"The poor monk has seen Master Li." A middle-aged monk came out of the woods on the side and stood with a smile.
"Lanling has seen Master Weiying. This is Lanling's nephew, Hong'er, who has quickly met Master Weiying. Lanling said after folding his hands and saluting.
"Li Hong has seen Master Weiying." Li Hong also folded his hands in front of Wei Ying.
"Yesterday, the poor monk disciple has informed the poor monk Li Shizhu that he will come today, so the poor monk is waiting here today, and Li Shizhu invites the Buddhist temple to speak." Only Ying stretched out his hand and led Lanling to the back of the Temple of Mercy and Grace, obviously this place is only open for pilgrims with status, and I didn't see too many ordinary people coming here along the way.
Li Hong looked at Wei Ying's kind smile, and he could always think of the face of Li Yifu who hid the knife in his smile. And after entering here, I always feel that something is wrong, and the cheetah and the stunned look are also a little vigilant, and their eyes sweep around from time to time.
"Lanling is here today, I want to ask the master to do a good deed for Lanling's nephew, and I hope to listen to the master's teaching." Lanling grabbed Li Hong's hand, and she felt that the little guy wanted to run.
"Oh, Lord Li has won the award, the acting king has a wisdom root at such an age, I'm afraid the poor monk can't help the acting king." Yui sat down on the futon and said slowly.
As soon as Li Hong sat down on the futon, he was picked up by Lanling and changed to a sitting position, kneeling there with his feet together, his buttocks sitting on his heels, and his hands being folded and placed on his lower abdomen by Lanling.
"You know he's the acting king?" Lanling finished fiddling with Li Hong and asked.
Wei Ying smiled, the whole person seemed to be in slow motion, and he lit three pillars of incense and put it into the incense burner without hurrying, and then continued: "Although it is the first time for the acting king to leave the palace, the acting king's cleverness and wit have spread throughout the streets and alleys of Chang'an City, and it is difficult to know the acting king, let alone ......." ”
Wei Ying stopped and looked at Li Hong with a smile, and only said to Lanling after a while: "A few days ago, the acting king smashed the envoy of the Turtle Zi Kingdom in the palace and entered the Duobao Linglong Pagoda dedicated to His Majesty, which is already a well-known matter. ”
Lanling nodded heavily, turned his head and said to Li Hong: "Hong'er, you go out to play for a while, and then come here to pick up my aunt after a stick of incense." ”
Li Hong looked up at Lanling, then nodded obediently, and walked out after saluting Wei Ying.
Li Hong left the stinging and mangzhong at the door to wait for Lanling, and he took Xia Zhi and Xiaoxue, as well as Hua Meng and cheetah, and began to continue to wander around.
"Acting King, why do I always feel that there is a mystery here." The cheetah is like a real cheetah, with its nose in the air and not knowing what to smell.
"You don't think this is very similar to Li Yifu, this temple was repaired by the Guizi people, I feel that this guy just said that when I broke the Linglong Pagoda, he gritted his teeth and said, although what he said was gentle enough, but compared to Li Yifu's smile hidden knife, it is still a little worse."
"What's that?" After passing through a forest, a house made of blue bricks and tiles looked like a monk's residence, but the yellow paper on the window had been pierced several times, and the figure inside was looming, but it was not a shaved bald monk.
"What's so strange about the house?" Xiaoxue looked at Xia Solstice and said in surprise.
"It's not the house, it's the back of the house, you see, what's that shiny thing?" Xia Zhi stretched out his finger and pointed to the back of the house and said.
Li Hong is relatively short, because of the angle, when he asked for the first time on the summer solstice, he saw those things that shimmered in the sunlight, and he stared at it suspiciously, and the more he looked at it, the more he looked like the broken glass slag he had seen in the previous life.
So a few people stepped forward, only to see that the shiny pile was broken glass slag, and looking at the texture, it was all broken glass slag with the same texture as the Linglong Tower.
"Huh? How many Exquisite Towers would have to be broken to pile up so many pieces. Xiaoxue looked at the pile of fragments distressedly, obviously falling ten or eight fragments was not enough to gather so many fragments.
Li Hong glanced at her dissatisfied: "You mean that this king has fallen less." ”
After finishing speaking, Li Hong ignored her, but squatted down and picked up a piece of broken glass and looked at it carefully, and after watching Xiaoxue squat, he wanted to pull the pile of fragments with his hands, and hurriedly stopped him: "Be careful, this thing is extremely sharp, carefully cut the ......." ”
"Ah......h Xiaoxue quickly withdrew her hand, only to see that red blood flowed from the tip of her index finger in an instant.
"I haven't listened to all the warnings, it's okay, just find clean water and rinse it, but it will leave a scar." Li Hong frightened.
After finishing speaking, Li Hong continued to pinch a piece of fragments and study it carefully, muttering to himself while studying: "These fragments don't look like they are broken, but like defective products ready to be recycled, can it be that the Temple of Mercy and Grace can make that exquisite pagoda?" ”
At this moment, the cheetah suddenly ran over, picked up Li Hong, who was still thinking, and whispered: "Acting King, let's get out of here quickly, it's very weird here." ”
"Huh? What's going on? Suddenly being picked up by a cheetah, Li Hong, who was taken aback, asked with his fingers still pinching the fragments.
"The slave and maid looked in curiously from the back window just now, this house is full of my Datang people, and they are all wearing shackles, these people are imprisoned." The cheetah hugged him, and Xia Zhi and the others followed him and walked quickly to the Buddhist temple where Lanling was.
