Chapter Twenty-Six: Seeking Blessings for Yourself
The blessing ceremony was ruined, and the lecture was so ridiculous, just when everyone didn't know how to sigh that the passing year was unfavorable, the little novice outside the door came to report again, "Xuanzhi, Master Xuanzhi is here." ”
"Today, because I took Hui'an in my place and disrupted the Dharma lectures, I didn't want to go, so I invited Master Xuanzhi who happened to travel here, Master Xuanzhi has profound Buddhism, and I believe that his words and words can be thought-provoking." Leng Changxi spoke slowly, and continued, "Regarding Hui'an, Jieqi and Luliu, they disturbed the prayers, disrespected the Buddha, and slandered the third girl Qin, since it happened in Wan'an Temple, and Jieqi and Hui'an are both disciples of Wan'an Temple, and they are going to hand them over to Master Huineng to deal with, I don't know what everyone thinks?" ”
Master Xuanzhi's reputation in Daqi is not inferior to Hui Neng, but he has been practicing penance behind closed doors, rarely seeing guests, and the people who can invite him are by no means ordinary, just this alone, everyone is already impressed by Leng Changxi, and naturally there will be no objections to Leng Changxi's proposal, and they all nodded in agreement.
After the lecture, Qin Yunuan was about to go back to the wing room to pack up his things, and when he returned home later, a little novice ran over with a letter in his hand, saluted Qin Yunuan, and said, "Qin San girl, this is a letter from the family teacher Hui Neng to the Qin family's wife," After speaking, he pointed to the green willow road in the distance, "It's because that sister is disrespectful to the Buddha, and the family teacher wants her to stay in the temple and be punished first. ”
"Master Huineng is merciful, and Yu Nuan has been taught." Qin Yunuan respectfully replied to the little novice, and the little novice walked away while scratching his head, he didn't understand Qin Yunuan's words, his own master punished people, and became merciful.
Qin Yunuan sighed slightly, this little novice will not understand, if Luliu returns to the Qin family, as a slave whose bad things are still exposed, Dou Qing'e will definitely not spare her, when the time comes, I am afraid that life is better than death, if it stays in the temple, there is still a glimmer of life, Master Huineng is wise and wise, how can he not know the reason.
Qin Yunuan was about to turn around, but heard a shrill and poignant pleading from behind him, "Three girls, three girls stay, Lu Liu has something to say." ”
Qin Yunuan turned around slowly, and saw that Green Willow broke free from the shackles of the two monks and came straight to him, and subconsciously took a step back, and Man'er and Tong'er hurriedly blocked in front to prevent Green Willow from getting closer.
"Our girl has nothing to say to you, what else do you want to make bad?" Tong'er smacked a cruel word at the green willow.
Green Willow suddenly became sad, gritted his teeth, and began to kowtow to Qin Yunuan when he knelt down, "Three girls, it's the green willow that is wrong, the green willow is confused by the ghost, but the green willow has no way, the green willow is the son of the Qin family, the father and mother went early, the green willow and the sister depended on each other, and worked together in the Qin family, this time the eldest lady ordered, if the green willow is not copied, the eldest lady will take the green willow's sister to open the knife, and the green willow is also ......." ”
"Bah," Tong'er didn't sympathize with this arrogant and vicious maid at all, "for the sake of your own sister, you came to harm our girl, it's not selfish." ”
"Who is your sister?" Qin Yunuan asked lightly.
Lu Liu said with tears in her eyes, "It is Fusheng who used to be a porter in the courtyard of the third girl, and was later sent to the courtyard of the second girl by the third girl." ”
"Oh, it turns out that you are two sisters," Man'er couldn't help but read, "The mind of being a sister is not pure, and it is no wonder that being a sister loves to pick up the cracks." ”
Qin Yunuan frowned slightly, and said to Lu Liu, "What do you want to do with me telling this?" ”
What can Green Willow do? What else could she do? Now she has been caught, although she has obviously disposed of the soles and the red powder, but she doesn't know what General Leng is capable of, and she has stained the soles of her shoes with black mud, and she has also found the red powder that she threw in the firewood, and now her words and deeds can't escape the eyes of others, and it is a miracle that she can live.
"Green willow doesn't ask for anything else, I just hope that the third girl can open up to the slave's sister, don't pursue it, Fusheng was also coerced by his wife to report the news for his wife, and now Fusheng was sent to the second girl's yard, and he was beaten and scolded by the second girl every day, and he didn't live well." Green Willow said tremblingly, for the sake of her sister, even if she pulls down her face and kowtows, she is willing.
"Do you want me to protect your sister in the Qin family?" Qin Yunan snorted coldly, if Lu Liu really thought like this, it would really be too whimsical.
Green Willow choked with a choked throat, didn't dare to speak, and said after a while, "Green Willow doesn't dare, I just ask the third girl not to embarrass Green Willow's sister anymore." ”
"Don't be embarrassed? Qin Yunuan turned to the side, and the hot air condensed into a white mist in the cold air and spread out, but Qin Yunuan's brows seemed to be condensed with a layer of gloom, "Did I embarrass you or did you press step by step?" If it weren't for you one move after another, why would I fight back? Now you don't have to go back to the Qin family, it's just a blessing to be imprisoned in Wan'an Temple by the Leng family. As for Fusheng, you can only let her ask for more blessings, you are the son of the Qin family, and you know best what the inner house looks like. ”
After Qin Yunuan finished speaking, he turned around and wanted to leave, but Lu Liu suddenly shouted, "There is something in the scriptures, three girls, three girls, there are things in the scriptures." ”
Towards dusk, there are a few more shades of blue-gray in the sky, under the unmelted snow, the tender green grass has arched new shoots, and the undispersed mist burns in the golden sunset, peaceful and warm.
Qin Yunuan was standing next to the Qin family's carriage and saying goodbye to Fang Ziying.
"I know it's not easy for you to come out, if I have a chance in the future, I will go to the Taiwei Mansion to chat with you." Fang Ziying reluctantly pulled Qin Yunuan, it was really not easy to find such a confidant in life.
"Forget it," Qin Yunuan was also a little reluctant, she had no friends in her previous life, she was locked in the yard by her mother every day, she was like a raised domestic animal, she kept embroidering this and that for her sister, Fang Ziying, should be regarded as her first friend in this life, "You are the daughter of the Taifu family, and if you lower your status and come to me, I am afraid that you will be criticized, it is not good for you and me, if there is a chance, we will talk about it." ”
There were young ladies and young masters who stepped on the carriage and returned home, and there were very few people in front of the mountain gate.
The two of them were about to continue to greet each other, but a high-pitched male voice came from a distance, "Miss Fang Fourth and Miss Qin San are affectionate and friendly, it's really enviable." ”
Shangguan Rang strode over, deliberately flicked the folding fan at Qin Yunuan, and fanned it in a pretentious manner.
"What do you have to envy about the friendship of your daughter's family." Fang Ziying squinted and said, she had never looked down on the straw bales of the Shangguan family, and the last time she was on the palace road, she also had a quarrel with Shangguan Yi for this.
At this time, Shangguan Yi was sitting on a three-horse carriage ten steps away, the dark purple curtains were decorated with neat tassels, swaying wildly in the mountain wind, Shangguan Yi was obviously displeased, but he only leaned on the car window, staring at this side.
Listening to Man'er, Shangguan Yi lost her temper after returning to the wing room at noon, and also rewarded her personal maid with two slaps, most of the time, she also knew the news that Qin Yun's makeup and face had healed, so she was depressed and in a bad mood.
However, Shangguan Rang didn't notice Shangguan Yi's sparkling eyes at all, but just approached Qin Yunuan more and more cheekily: "What I envy is not Miss Qin San, what I envy is Miss Fang Si, I can never forget it with the girl of the Qin family, keep in mind in my heart, when I go to Shangguan Rang, I can also have this honor." ”
"In front of the public, Shangguan Gongzi said this, aren't you afraid of blushing?" Qin Yunuan looked coldly at Shangguan Rang, who thought he was suave.
But I don't know what kind of demon this Shangguan Rang is in, he folded the fan and said with a smile, "I say everything from the bottom of my heart, why do I blush?" ”
Qin Yunuan didn't want to be involved with this kind of person, so she turned around and wanted to leave, but who expected Shangguan Rang to catch up and ask, "I spent 10,000 gold to buy a piece of heavenly silk today, and the third girl Qin is willing to watch it with you." ”
"The carriage is ready, I'm afraid it will delay the viewing."
"It's okay," Shangguan Rang continued to ask, "I heard that Ning Wangfu has recently been responsible for renovating the White Horse Academy, and it will be completed on the third day of the third month of March. ”
Qin Yunuan bowed back, "Yunuan is a female dependent, it is not easy to get out of the house, besides, if you play alone with Shangguan Gongzi, it is really inappropriate." ”
"That's ......." Shangguan Rang wanted to invite again, and a voice that was so cold that it made people feel like they were on the edge of the abyss sounded faintly, "Shangguan Gongzi, you still fan on a cold day, aren't you afraid of the cold?" ”
With such a ghostly and demagogic tone, who would it be if it wasn't Leng Changxi?
Qin Yunuan was already sitting in the carriage, and when he heard the voice, he subconsciously lifted the curtain, Leng Changxi was still upright, standing like a pine, but the blue color of his chin faintly revealed his exhaustion, recently Ning Wangfu was responsible for repairing the White Horse Academy, Leng Changxi was also responsible for some follow-up affairs of Eastern Qin, plus the waves of today's blessing, a nineteen-year-old boy, he really lacked skills.
Under the carriage, Leng Changxi stood with his hands in his hands, and said coldly to Shangguan, "This is the carriage of the third girl Qin, and Shangguan Gongzi is entangled here, I'm afraid it doesn't fit in with etiquette." ”
Shangguan Rang looked a little embarrassed, he nodded with a smile and said, "I just want to make an appointment with ......." ”
"I just heard it," a slight hint of disdain floated at the corner of Leng Changxi's mouth, "First, Shangguan Gongzi's heavenly silk is a second-class product bought from the Yuman Embroidery Village in the east of our Ningwangfu City, and it doesn't need ten thousand gold, and second, the completion date of the White Horse Academy is not the third day of March, but the first day of March, if Shangguan Gongzi intends to come to play, don't mistake the time, the third ......." ”
When Shangguan Rang heard this, his face was already blue and white, and he was inevitably a little surprised when he heard that Pingbai had an extra "third", and suddenly raised his head, but saw Leng Changxi stretching out his hand and pointing in the direction of the carriage of Shangguan Mansion, "Miss Shangguan has been waiting for a long time, if Gongzi Shangguan doesn't go back, I'm afraid it will anger Miss Shangguan." ”
Shangguan Rang is arrogant and graceful outside, and he is afraid that his father will listen to his little sister inside, which is an open secret.
Looking at the back of Shangguan Rang hurriedly retreating and leaving, Qin Yunuan breathed a sigh of relief, put down the carriage curtain, and picked up the hand warmer on the small wooden table and covered it.
"I have something to say to you." Through the thick cotton curtain, Leng Changxi's voice was like a penetrating arrow, which shook Qin Yunuan's heart, his voice carried a different kind of luck and stagnation, Qin Yunuan leaned towards the cotton curtain, and his tone became more and more polite, "What does General Leng have to say?" ”
