Chapter 53: Shoki Kuaikawa (Asking for Recommendation)

"It is said that there was a former monk of Myoshin Temple in Mino Province! Your Highness, take a look! "Ah Ju is holding a needle and thread to shuttle up and down a handkerchief, she is a devout Buddhist, to be precise, a devout member of the Myoshinji sect, because the Kira family has been a believer of the Myoshinji sect for generations, and the Myoshinji Temple in Kyoto is the main mountain, and a small half of the ministers of the dynasty in Kyoto are believers in Daitokuji Temple or Myoshinji Temple, and the middle courtyard family and the branch family Atago are all like this.

"Well, the temples of the Myoshinji sect are all places worth visiting...... Speaking of which, my father also met my mother at Myoshinji Temple in Kyoto, right? Was Ah Ju there at the time? Kira Manmatsumaru glanced at Katsuhime carefully, then turned sideways and asked very gossipy.

"Ah Ju was not there at the time, because Ah Ju was not born yet, and Her Royal Highness the princess also said that because she was only a few years old at the time, she didn't remember this incident, and Her Royal Highness would not be satisfied with this answer, right?" Ah Ju smiled slightly, dispelling the fire of gossip that was burning in Kira Manmatsumaru's heart.

"Cut, so boring! I'm still going to have a singing and crying love.,Is it just a story of Lori controlling Lori? Kira Manmatsumaru muttered two words without a voice, his father Kira Yoshiyao was born in the third year of Bunkame, and he was eighteen years older than his mother, Nakain Aihime, who was born in the first year of Oei.

When I didn't consider the age gap before, there was also a love story that could be sung and cried, who would have thought that it would be such a result, sitting in the carriage and depressed for half a minute, and then woken up by little Lori Katsuhime: "Oni-chan!" Look, what a big Buddhist temple built on the mountain! It's not the same as Honshoji Temple! ”

"Does Katsuhime like Honshoji?"

"I don't like it! The monks of Honshoji Temple have terrible eyes and always stare at their mother, and Katsuhime doesn't like them very much! Tong Yan is unscrupulous, the listener pays attention, Kira Wanmatsu Pill and Ah Ju's faces changed suddenly, Ah Ju was so frightened that she almost threw away the needle and thread in her hand, and hurriedly pulled Katsuhime, and said eagerly: "Katsuhime must not say this!" ”

"Hmmm! Katsuhime never told anyone that her mother wasn't like this before, but then a monk from Nagashima came to Honshoji Temple. Little Lori seemed to understand and shook out all the words she was holding in her heart, and then promised again and again that she would not tell anyone, so that the two of them could rest assured.

Kira Manmatsumaru Tetsumaru shouted outside the carriage with a blue face: "Zhengqing! Call me the security chief! ”

After a while, there was a soft "squeak" sound on the wheels outside the carriage, and through the thick curtain of the carriage, the voice of the chief of the Hattori security guard came in: "What does the hall owner command!" ”

"Let me find out what happened to Mrs. Ogasawara and Honshoji, and! I don't want to see that monk from Ise Nagashima anymore. ”

"Yes! Your Majesty will do it immediately! When the word "do" fell, the sound had drifted to the back of the carriage and gradually faded away.

"Oni-chan, why don't you want to see that monk again? Katsuhime remembers that Oni-chan has never been to Honshoji Temple! Little Lori Katsuhime's unintentional words attracted Aju's concerned eyes, Kira Manmatsumu shook his head lightly and said that it was okay, he knew the meaning of Aju's eyes.

The life of the samurai family is very troublesome to sum up, but as far as the result is concerned, it just revolves around the transition between killing and being killed, and as a relative of the samurai family, he has long been accustomed to this kind of life, and Aju is just worried about his safety, not caring about the unmasked monk of Nagashima, not to mention that the monk is very likely to have an affair with Kira Manmatsumaru's uncle, and being killed is not worthy of sympathy.

The motorcade quickly stopped, and the hundreds of steps not far from here are the destinations of this tour, Mino-myoshin-ji temple sent a branch temple to Chongfuku-ji Temple, and the horse-bound samurai of the Kira family followed his steps to climb the steps, when the large group of people came to the front of the mountain of Chongfukuji Temple, the mountain gate of Chongfukuji Temple suddenly opened, and a monk in his thirties wearing a robe greeted him with a cadre of monks from the temple.

This monk in a robe looks very good, if he does not shave as a monk, he will definitely be a handsome man, and said in a familiar Kyoto accent: "Tanyue came from afar to come, so that the whole temple feels honored, and the poor monk Kuaikawa Shaoxi welcomes Tanyue with his residence in Chongfu Temple." ”

"From afar? It seems that Master Kuaikawa is also prepared! ”

"The poor monk is only prepared for the 'person with a heart', but I don't know that Tan Yue is a 'person with a heart'?" Two people who are very different in age and height look at each other and smile, and Kuaichuan Shaoxi led a group of more than a dozen people into Chongfu Temple, as for the team? Of course, stand guard outside the temple.

The Myoshinji school is a new sect from the Southern Song Dynasty in the Kamakura period, because it is different from the new Zen style of the Kinai Five Mountains School and is favored by the samurai, of course, this price is also not welcomed by the five mountains of Kinai, the new sect does not have a strong foundation, and the innate characteristics of Zen Buddhism make them lack the kind of aggression of the Honai sect, the Lotus sect or the five mountains of Kinai, and there is no huge group of monks and armed believers, so it is classified as a harmless sect, Kira Manmatsu Maru dared to enter the temple in an unfamiliar area on behalf of only a dozen people after revealing his identity, There is only this harmless and co-believing Miaoshin temple school.

"Speaking of which, the name Kuaikawa Shaoxi is really a little familiar! It's just that I can't remember where the character is for a while. Kira Manmatsumu could be sure that he had heard of this Dharma name, but there were any celebrities among the monks in Mino, and his eyes were really black, and he followed Kuaikawa Shaoxi around the small temple, and then bowed to the Bodhisattva and the Holy Kannon in the main hall.

It wasn't until Kuaikawa Shaoxi introduced the monks of this temple that he mentioned his apprentice, Huya Zongyi, who is twenty years old this year, that he remembered the origin of the two masters: "Isn't Kuaikawa Shaoxi the high monk of Kai?" It seems that he and another monk made the banner of the Wind Forest Volcano, this is a hardcore Takeda powder! How are Mino people? I heard that the common surname is Toki? Isn't Tiger Zai Zongyi that someone's master? Am I lucky again? ”

Kira Manmatsumu was in a mood for a while and didn't pay attention to what Kuaikawa Shaoxi said, and when he came back to his senses, the high monk didn't know where to run, and spent a lot of time finding him, and immediately mentioned to him: "Master Kuaikawa's words made the family suddenly!" I wonder if Master Kuaikawa has any plans to return to Kyoto to practice? It would be a waste for such a small temple as Chongfukuji Temple to be held by a high monk like you! ”

"The poor monk has plans to return to Kyoto...... Just not now. Kuaichuan Shaoxi's answer disappointed him, and then the senior monk said: "However, the poor monk intends to let the disciple Huzai Zongyi enter Luo to study the scriptures and wonderful methods of the Miaoxin Temple in Dabenshan, so the poor monk cheekily asked Tan Yue to take my disciple for a ride." ”

"Well, is it just a study of the Dharma? All right! My family agreed! If the master has a chance, please consider the proposal of the family, and the family has taken his leave! "Kira Manmatsu Pill is happy first and then sad, and in the end he didn't even get a single hair, but when the monk made this kind of request, he couldn't help but know how to lift it, and leave a good impression on each other, maybe there will be a chance in the future, at least give him a thought of going to Kyoto.

Note: Shoki Kuaikawa is one of the founders of the Wind Forest Volcano Banner used by Takeda Shingen, an authentic Mino background, Toraya Sob Many people also know that they are Date Masamune's masters, but they are masters and apprentices Most people don't know.
