Chapter 172: Visiting Cheng Mansion (3)
Everything was ready to stop, Tang Xiu came out of the space, opened the door that had been tied before, and then fell asleep on the bed.
It wasn't until about five o'clock in the afternoon that Tang Xiu, who was sleeping soundly, was really awakened by a loud kicking on the door.
"Who?!"
Before his eyes were fully opened, Tang Xiu's body had already jumped off the bed reflexively, his feet were staggered back and forth, and his hands were raised flat to pose in a protective posture facing the person at the door.
However, when he saw that it was a bald monk who came in, his nervous heart also relaxed.
"It turned out to be Master Xuanzang!" Tang Xiu put down his hands, stood up straight, glanced at the door behind Xuanzang, and said, "Master Xuanzang broke in in such a hurry, I don't know why?" ”
Such a high-ranking monk has even learned to kick other people's doors, what is wrong with this world?
seemed to realize his recklessness, Xuanzang folded his hands and made a Buddha salute, and said apologetically: "The poor monk was excited for a while, please forgive Tang Jushi!" ”
"Okay, anyway, this door is also the property of your Ci'en Temple, Master Xuanzang don't say it's kicking, even if he directly unloads the door, Tang has no opinion."
Just got out of bed in a hurry, Tang Xiu didn't even care about wearing shoes, now that the crisis is over, Tang Xiu turned around and put the boots on his feet, put on the coat hanging at the head of the bed, walked to the table and chair next to him, lifted the kettle, poured a cup of herbal tea and took a sip, stretched out his hand to ask Xuanzang to sit down in front of him, and said lightly: "If there is anything, Master Xuanzang just said it directly, he came to look for the kid in such a hurry, wouldn't it be just to kick the kid's door?" ”
"Tang Jushi, that luminous pearl is no longer lit!"
Not wanting to say anything more about kicking the door, Xuanzang went straight to the point, staring at Tang Xiu with bright eyes, and his face was excited and unbearable.
"So long?" Tang Xiu was also stunned, knowing what Xuanzang meant when he said that it was not bright, so he felt a little surprised, looked up at the sky, and said, "It's been almost two hours, it can't be that the brightness has just started to decrease, right?" ”
Two hours is four hours, which is almost an afternoon, and the luminous pearl only shines for half an hour at noon.
Xuanzang said: "To be precise, it is two and a half hours, the light is cold, bright but not stinging, and more importantly, the brightness has always been very stable, if it is placed on the top of the Big Wild Goose Pagoda, it will inevitably cause a sensation in the entire Chang'an City!" ”
If a lens shines for only half an hour, it can make the luminous beads shine for two and a half hours, and if the four mirrors shine for a whole day, won't the luminous beads shine for two to three days in a row?
This is undoubtedly a great news for Xuanzang and the Temple of Mercy and Grace, Xuanzang was a little irritated and behaved abnormally, which is understandable.
"That's right, it can cause a certain sensation, otherwise how can it be called a Buddha miracle?" Tang Xiu nodded lightly without being surprised, and asked Xuanzang in a negative voice, "But what does it matter to me?" I have done everything that should be done, and I have completely explained what I should say, and this matter has no longer have any relationship in the future. ”
"How can it be okay?" Seeing that Tang Xiu tried his best to get rid of his relationship with the Buddha, Xuanzang chuckled and said: "After all, this matter is led by Tang Jushi, and now even Lu Guogong already knows the details, even if the poor monk wants to hide it, he can't hide it for a long time, and now the emperor already knows all the causes and effects of the matter, so no matter how reluctant Tang Jushi is, I'm afraid he will never be able to put it aside again." ”
"Although it will not be publicized publicly, those who should know will definitely know that this kind of fame and profit, and even accumulate a good deal that belongs to the emperor, why does Tang Jushi have to shirk it again and again?"
Xuanzang didn't quite understand Tang Xiu's thoughts, this was obviously a good thing that others couldn't ask for, why did he want to cover it up?
Are you really indifferent to fame and fortune, or are you afraid that you will get into trouble because of this?
Ignoring Xuanzang's question, Tang Xiu put down the teacup in his hand and said lightly, "We will leave tomorrow." ”
"The poor monk already knows." I feel that Tang Xiu's speech is a little unreasonable, is this directly related to the problems of his department? Xuanzang continued: "Tang Jushi has already said it at noon. Although he was reluctant to give up, if Tang Jushi really wanted to leave, the poor monk would never stop him. I just hope that after Tang Jushi returns to Taiyuan, if he has any more leisure, he will definitely come to the Temple of Mercy and Grace again, and then the poor monks will be swept away! ”
Tang Xiu shook his head and said: "This time I didn't go back to Taiyuan, but went to Lu Guogong's Cheng Mansion, and I agreed to the invitation made by Lu Guogong himself." Starting tomorrow, I will take my family to live in the Lu Guogong Mansion temporarily, as for how long I will stay temporarily, the specific time has not been determined, it may be one day or two days, or ten days and a half months. ”
"Move...... Moving to Chengfu? ”
Xuanzang was stunned, and the first reaction in his heart was that he was dug into a corner by Cheng Yanjin!
Even the corner of the Buddha dares to dig, this Cheng biting gold is really ...... Really...... There's nothing you can do with him......
Although Xuanzang's influence in Chang'an in front of the emperor is not small, he himself knows very well that his prestige and influence are far inferior to Lu Guogongcheng's bite of gold, it is not a system at all, and it is not on the same order of magnitude, it cannot be compared.
Therefore, Xuanzang's second reaction was helpless, deeply helpless, such a golden rooster that could lay golden eggs was taken away by Cheng Biting Jin, so unwilling.
Tang Xiu continued: "At that time, Lu Guogong gave me two choices, one was that I obediently went to Chengfu as a guest, and he let people wait for him with delicious food and drink. The second is that he tied me up to Cheng Mansion as a guest, and then let people wait for me with delicious food and drink. So I chose to go to Chengfu obediently as a guest, Master Xuanzang thinks I did the right thing to make this choice? ”
After hearing this, a black line appeared in front of Xuanzang's forehead, he knew that this was definitely Cheng Biting Jin's style of acting, such a strange way of entertaining, except for Cheng Biting Jin, no one else could do it.
"Wise." Xuanzang persuaded with some bitterness in his heart: "But Tang Jushi can rest assured, Lu Guogong has no ill will towards Tang Jushi, but Lu Guogong's way of acting is a little special, and he should not mean to be under house arrest or hurt Tang Jushi." ”
"I know." Tang Xiu said: "So I can still sit here quietly and talk to Master Xuanzang, so I have been asking Master Xuanzang not to leak the things related to the Buddha's miracles, otherwise I may have more trouble." And I, hate trouble. ”
"However, the poor monk took advantage of such a big advantage of Tang Jushi in such a way, and he always felt a little uneasy......
"If Master Xuanzang really feels uneasy, then help the kid do something." Taking over Xuanzang's words, Tang Xiu took out a drawing prepared in advance from his sleeve and handed it to Xuanzang, "Use those transparent crystal leftovers, let those craftsmen work hard tonight, and polish some of the things drawn on this paper for the kid, and Master Xuanzang will be a great help to the kid." ”
