Chapter 22 Perils

In the East Side Hall, there have been many young masters who are daughters of powerful families in Beijing, many of whom Qin Yunuan has seen at the Flower Dynasty Festival banquet, and at this moment they are all just sitting on the sidelines, looking at Shangguan Yi who was angry in the middle of the crowd and Leng Changxi, who was still calm and indifferent.

It's not that they like to watch the excitement, it's just that in this situation, one is a general with outstanding military achievements, and the other is a left-handed beloved daughter, no one dares to interfere, and they have no right to interfere.

"Leng Changxi, others are afraid of you, but I am not afraid of you, you have to drink this cup of tea if you want to, if you don't want to drink it! Gotta drink it too! Shangguan Yi stood aside with his waist crossed, his apricot eyes red with anger.

Turning his head, he happened to see Qin Yunuan and Shangguan Rang standing together, directly pulled Shangguan Rang, and said coquettishly: "Brother, you are finally here, you go back and tell your father that it was Leng Changxi who deliberately made things difficult for me, and I kindly soaked in the first-class Tieguanyin, but I was disliked by others." ”

Shangguan Rang looked a little embarrassed, looking back and forth at the two of them, he felt that he had fallen into a bellows, and there was a cold wind at both ends.

"Why is Miss Shangguan so aggressive?" Compared with Shangguan Yi's impatience, Leng Changxi seemed to be so unhurried, he knocked the white jade crystal clear exquisite tea cup with his index finger, and a contemptuous and cold smile appeared on his face, "The tea is old, obviously old tea, the tea is broken but not fragrant, it is obviously tea residue, and this tea water," Leng Changxi nodded the tip of his nose and tilted his head and said, "Shangguan girl, haven't you boiled yet?" ”

"Brother." Shangguan Yi turned her head and looked at Shangguan Rang pleadingly, when she was alone, she could scold others, but when her brother came, she relied on her brother even more.

It's a pity that this Shangguan has been incompetent since he was a child, and he can't learn and have no skills, he can't argue, and his tongue can't say: "General Leng, you see, this is also the intention of the sister." ”

Leng Changxi stood up with his hands in his hands, looked back and said: "No matter how good the tea is, if it is not carefully soaked, it will be in vain, Miss Shangguan, you can't afford this tea." It was obviously a polite word, but it made Shangguan Yi lose face again.

Shangguan let him be in a dilemma at this time, and in a blink of an eye, he saw Qin Yunuan who came in with him, regardless of thirty-seven twenty-one, he actually pushed Qin Yunuan forward: "Miss Qin San, you are helping to persuade General Leng." ”

You don't push the hall full of noble ladies and young masters, but let me persuade you? Qin Yunuan subconsciously pursed her lips, and her two willow eyebrows trembled like cicada wings, but these small movements fell into Leng Changxi's eyes.

Before Qin Yunuan could speak, Leng Changxi raised his voice and said: "Shangguan Gongzi is serious, everyone has come to Wan'an Temple to pray for their families, why make it so embarrassing, just keep your duty." ”

"Hmph, are you saying that I am not sensible and deliberately cause trouble, when I was a child, your brother praised me for being smart and clever, why are you cold family, the difference is so big." Shangguan Yi has a young lady's temper, and she can't stand the slightest grievance at all.

Leng Changxi's expression was indifferent, and his sword eyebrows were raised into a good-looking arc: "Before the age of twelve, Shangguan girl still didn't mention it, after all, at that time, my brother was young and ignorant, and what she said, Shangguan girl shouldn't take it too seriously." ”

Immediately, private whispers sounded around again, and even Qin Yunuan couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth, this Leng Changxi seemed to be very different from the usual battlefield generals.

At the right time, a monk came to report outside the door, saying that the Mahavira Hall was ready and could start praying at any time, so please don't miss the auspicious time.

Everyone went one after another, the Daxiong Treasure Hall, the hall has been lit sixteen pots of charcoal fire, smoked the whole hall as warm as spring, sixty-four futons are neatly placed, and the maids are waiting outside.

The hall is offered to five Buddhas, in the middle, is to say the Buddha Shakyamuni, sit on the knees, the left hand is placed horizontally on the left foot, the right hand is bent upwards to make a ring, majestic and solemn, the gilded gold body exudes an irresistible majesty.

The person who presided over the blessing ceremony was a monk who looked at some faces, about fifty years old, born with kind eyebrows and kind eyes, slightly blessed, he wore a red flat gold embroidered robe, and saluted: "The poor monk is called Hui'an, and the senior brother Huineng is unwell today, so let the poor monk preside over on his behalf." ”

"What's wrong with Master Huineng?" Fang Ziying asked, "In the past, it was Master Huineng who presided over it, and we also had some relationship with Master Huineng, so it stands to reason that we should be visiting." ”

"There's no need to be so troublesome," Hui An hurriedly replied: "Senior brother is just a typhoid cold, and now he needs to recuperate. ”

Qin Yunuan and Fang Ziying glanced at each other, but knelt on the futon hand in hand.

The prayer ceremony went smoothly, although Master Huineng was not there, but Hui'an also presided over it in an orderly manner, and the Buddhist teachings were also very close to the hearts of the people, and there was reason and evidence.

"I wish the family a safe and smooth family history, and several younger sisters can find a wishful husband and marry the love of my sister's family." Fang Ziying folded her hands, extremely religious.

Qin Yunuan also secretly made a wish: "I hope that this life will be safe and stable, the traitor will be destroyed, and the villain will be absolute, if Yu Nuan can protect Baochuan to become a safe and talented person, the people around him will be worry-free, and Yu Nuan will come to repay the wish with incense, candles and red silk." ”

While chanting, someone suddenly pointed to the statue of Shakyamuni Buddha and exclaimed, "The Buddha is in tears!" ”

"Really, the Buddha shed tears, but it was still blood and tears."

Everyone lost their looks, and the Buddha shed tears, which is a sign of great evil.

Qin Yunuan looked up, and sure enough, he saw that on the one-foot-high Buddha statue, a red water stain was bubbling from the inside of the eye socket, slowly dripping down the outside of the gilded cheek, and it looked like it was really like tears.

How can the Buddha statue shed tears, someone must be making trouble!

"Oh no, the Buddha is crying, this is a great omen, it must be that someone here has offended the Buddha and suffered this retribution." Someone shouted in panic.

"It's just a Buddha statue," Fang Ziying pretended to be calm, "Maybe it's just that the paint of this Buddha statue hasn't dried yet, and the air has been moist due to the recent snowmelt." ”

"I'm afraid, but that's not the case." Li Weijun, who had been silent before, suddenly opened his mouth and said to Qin Yunuan and Fang Ziying, "If it is really us, there are some demons or ominous people here, it is not necessarily, is it Sister Yunuan?" ”

Qin Yunuan and Li Weijun have a very shallow relationship, but it was the last time at the Flower Dynasty Festival banquet, she came with Shangguan Yi to make a strong momentum, but this time she only called her own name, as if she was prepared, if it was not for herself, it was for the person behind her.

"Not necessarily," Qin Yunuan smiled lightly, "There is a law in everything, and today's events are ......." ”

"The Buddha has appeared, and there must be demons in this hall!" Before Qin Yunuan finished speaking, a loud and unequivocal sound permeated the Daxiong Treasure Hall, and the echo was still ringing around the beams among the few tower incense, and the person who spoke was none other than Master Hui'an, who presided over the blessing ceremony.

The audience was in an uproar, and everyone looked at each other.

"You blind monk, what are you talking nonsense," Shangguan Yi was most taboo about these unclean and obscene things, she said angrily: "The people who came to pray for blessings today are all powerful officials and eunuchs in Beijing, where did the demons come from, if you have nothing to do, I will go back and let Daddy cure your sins." ”

"What if nothing is wrong but something is true?" Li Weijun's petite face flashed with a hint of gloom, "Master Hui'an, you go on." ”

Half a month ago, Shangguan Yi and Li Weijun were still angry with the same enemy, and they were angry with Qin Yun makeup, but now they are turning against each other, it seems that Shangguan Yi has nothing to do with this matter, but it is a pity that she can't hide the eldest lady's temper, and turned her head and said: "Everyone is here to pray for blessings, why do you Li Weijun always like to stir up trouble?" ”

"Sister Shangguan, what you said is not right," Li Weijun tilted his head, "I am also for everyone's good, so I will find out clearly, so as not to misunderstand." Then he urged again, "Master Hui'an, your Dharma is profound, and you must know the causes and effects of it. ”

Hui An only closed his eyes, turned the dragon eye Buddha beads in his hand, sighed "Amitabha" before opening his eyes and muttered: "Among you, are there any born in May?" ”

Qin Yunuan was slightly stunned, but soon calmed down, her expression was still quiet, but some people could see that the turbulent undercurrent under the calm, she was nervous after all, it turned out that this omnipotent and secretly scheming little woman would also be nervous.

Leng Changxi stared sideways at Qin Yunuan, the eyes of the two converged in the warm but cool air, Leng Changxi's long figure exuded a chill that made Qin Yunuan feel like he was shuttling in the dark night, lost in it, and couldn't get out.

"I remember that Sister Yu Nuan was born in May, right," above the main hall, a crisp and graceful voice sounded, "On the fifth day of May this year, it should be fifteen." ”

Qin Yunuan turned around and saw that it was Li Weijun who spoke, and all this move was aimed at herself, it seemed that Dou Qing'e had really exhausted her mind to deal with herself.

Qin Yunuan replied lightly, "I have only a one-sided relationship with Sister Li, and Sister Li actually remembers Yu Nuan's birthday so clearly, Yu Nuan, I am really flattered." ”

"Besides, is there anyone else?" Hui An pinched the Buddha beads and slowly opened his eyes.

Everyone shook their heads, and the eyes that looked at Qin Yunuan gradually changed.

Hui An continued to pinch the Buddha beads and said, "The so-called born in February, Ke parents, born in May, Ke whole family, a great omen." ”

Qin Yunuan replied slowly, "Everyone knows this sentence, but the master seems to have made a mistake, the daughter was born in February, and the one who was born in May was not good, it was a man." ”

Hui An walked up to Qin Yunuan, pointed at Qin Yunuan and continued, "Mayborn is indeed talking about men, but the donor is a girl and a man, which is even more unlucky. ”

"Nonsense," Fang Ziying couldn't help it, "My sister Yunuan was born with clear eyebrows and beautiful eyes, how can she be a girl and a man." ”

Hui An shook his head with a profound look, and asked instead, "Then let me ask you, recently, are there any women in the Qin family's mansion who have difficulty giving birth?" ”

Qin Yunuan raised her eyebrows, nodded and said, "That's right, one of my father's aunts had a difficult birth two months ago, and finally survived with ginseng." ”

Hui'an didn't seem to expect Qin Yunuan to answer so briskly, and asked more and more confidently, "Recently, is it true that my brother has not returned from a long trip, and Ling Zun also has a bloody disaster?" Even the female dependents in the family have not been avoided? ”

Qin Yunuan smiled softly, "That's right, my brother Qin Linfeng has been traveling far away, and the return date is uncertain, my father came with the eldest prince Jiangnan to the front of the southern tour, and was attacked by assassins, and my father stepped forward to protect the safety of the eldest prince and sprained his arm." And my two sisters, the eldest sister was injured in the palace, and the second sister was punished and grounded for doing something wrong. Every one, master, you're right. ”

After Qin Yunuan finished speaking, the discussion in the hall was even more endless, only Leng Changxi, he was as quiet as a fir tree in the night, cold and tall, no one knew what he was waiting for, maybe it was dawn, maybe it was darkness darker than night.

"Hmph, it's really a broom star," Li Weijun raised his voice and said, "A concubine who has caused the Qin family to live in peace, what's the use of keeping it." ”

"So, the eldest prince was attacked by assassins, and he was also indirectly dragged down by the third girl Qin? This is implicating the prince's safety. "Some people are afraid that the world will not be chaotic.

Hui An just closed his eyes in amazement, and said in pieces: "Amitabha, what a wrong, wronged. ”

"What the master said is Yu Nuan, and he also has something to say." Qin Yunuan looked sideways slightly, and her face was as pure as a lotus.
