The eldest lady Zhao is in charge, and the young lady in the house is also well prepared for her trip, and she will never lose General Su's face. The carriage was covered with velvet blankets to keep people warm to ensure that there were no bumps in the process, spices were smoked, and fresh fruit and hot tea were placed on the small table.

Su Xiangsi sat on the soft silk cushion, swaying slightly as the carriage walked, and climbed up sleepily. Covering his mouth and yawning, he was going to sleep again, but he was still confused when he was dragged up by rosin early in the morning to make up.

Liu Wu took the velvet blanket on the side and covered it for Su Xiangsi, and sat on one side without making a sound. It's not easy for Miss to wake up early today without losing her temper.

After leaving the city, it takes half an hour to reach the foot of Mount Puluo. The carriage paused, and Su Xiangsi opened his eyes with a light sleep, his eyes were clear, and he didn't seem to be asleep.

Rosin sorted out Su Xiangsi's somewhat messy dress, and after confirming that it was okay, she helped her out of the carriage. The incense of Puluo Temple is the most prosperous, the pilgrims are endless, and there are many carriages parked at the foot of the mountain.

I went to ask Mrs. Su to go out early in the morning, and I also warned the young lady that she should not lose the face of General Su's mansion.

In the cold of winter, the leaves of the trees withered, the branches and branches were covered with frost, and the ground was covered with snow. The white, somewhat glaring, and the bright sky are the same color. I could faintly hear the sound of a bell coming from the top of the mountain.

Calm down and feel that your body and mind will be washed away by this holy place, and the greed of human nature in the darkness will be washed away.

Although the mountain is not high, you can see the magnificent temple of the temple by 100 steps. Following in the footsteps of Su Qing and Su Yiling, stepping on the snow to climb the mountain, there were already many pilgrims on the steps. Su Xiangsi listened carefully to their conversation and knew that the master who chanted the scriptures today was Huiji.

She was secretly surprised in her heart, the people's reverence for Master Huiji was more prestigious than she had imagined. The foot of the mountain is still bustling, and there are people who have not gone up the mountain, and I don't know how many people have been in the temple. If you can't get the bamboo card of Master Huiji, you won't have the opportunity to enter the hall to listen to the scriptures, and the people who came today estimate that all of them are coming to Master Huiji.

A few decades ago, Puluo Temple was just a small temple. During the reign of Emperor Taizu, when he returned from a visit to the city, it rained heavily, and he accidentally bumped into the Puluo Temple to avoid the rain, praying for good weather in the coming year.

Surprisingly, the drought and flood conditions have improved to a great extent in the past five years, and the prosperity is better than in previous years. also got the twin sons of the dragon and phoenix.

Emperor Taizu Longyan Dayue allocated a huge amount of money to repair and rename Puluo Temple, and the annual incense money is not a small amount.

As soon as this news came out, the people believed that the heavenly manifestation was at the peak of incense.

Su Xiangsi stood in front of the gate of the temple, and really felt the simplicity and solemnity that came to her face.

"The second lady is kind-hearted and never leaves a chanting meeting behind." The monk's words attracted the attention of many people.

The eldest lady of General Su's Mansion is a talented girl, and the second lady is a kind and Buddhist person.

"The master is overrated, the grandmother is inconvenient, and it doesn't hurt for the little girl to run a few more times." Blessed with a blessed body, he took the bamboo card handed to him by the monk with both hands.

It is worthy of being a daughter from the noble portal, treating people with a number of thorough manners, and the proficient knowledge is also very different from ordinary people. The scriptures are dry and difficult to understand, and it takes twelve points of patience to read them.

The daughter of the young family, I am afraid that only Su Yiling can discuss the scriptures with Master Huiji freely.

Having a bamboo plaque means that you can enter the hall to listen to Master Huiji's chanting, regardless of the status of the noble, first come, first served.

There was still some time before chanting, and the little monk led the group to the side courtyard for a short rest.

There are many shrubs and flowers, although they have withered, some are depressed and poignant, but the environment is clean and quiet, and you can see the majestic golden tiles through the withered branches. Summer is sure to be a lush sight and a shady and comfortable mecca.

Rosin and catkins helped Su Xiangsi change her dress, and the mountain road was covered with snow and mud. The skirt has been wet a lot, not to mention the cold, someone in the hall will definitely notice it, and it is inevitable that someone will make a fuss in the future.

Liu Fu was even more indignant in her heart, bullying her own young lady for not coming to the holy land of Buddhism, and no one came to give you a guide or two on the things that should be paid attention to before going out. It is said that it is casual clothes to travel, and the packages carried by their personal maids are not also clean clothes.

Rosin made pastries in the morning, just enough to make Su Acacia cushion her stomach. I don't know when the chanting will end, I can't come out at will without a break, and the eldest lady has prepared fresh fruits for the young lady's carriage.

After resting for a while, Su Xiangsi came out of the door just in time to see Su Qing and Su Yiling stepping out of the small door of the courtyard, the three of them looked at each other and were stunned, Su Yiling was only embarrassed for a moment, and returned to her usual gentleness

Su Xiangsi smiled kindly: "It's good to see my sister, otherwise I won't recognize the way to the Treasure Scripture Palace." ”

"I was just about to send someone to call the third sister, and you came out first." Su Yiling's eyes swept over Su Xiangsi's clean dress, and her smile did not decrease.

Su Qing and Su Yiling's attention was disappointed, and the two of them didn't seem to think of their third sister when they left the house. When I arrived at the Treasure Scripture Hall, I remembered that Su Xiangsi would miss the time no matter how she was in a hurry at that time.

The pilgrims reverently knelt on the futon and prayed sincerely, and the monks recited obscure scriptures accompanied by the sound of wooden fish, which became softer and farther away. Su Xiangsi looked at the Buddha statue with kind eyebrows and was a little distracted.

In my mind, I recalled over and over again the power and power that I had from the beginning to the present, the hesitation and failure in the process, the detours I took again and again, and the various things that almost killed me when my wings were not yet full made Acacia sigh. The deeper your mind is directed, the more you want to break free, you find that you can't control your consciousness.

Liu Wu naturally stepped forward to support Su Xiangsi and made a little effort: "Miss, it's your turn." ”

Su Xiangsi came out of his thoughts violently, and took a puff of the red sandalwood floating in the hall, and the monk on the side had already collected the scriptures. The pilgrims have finished their prostrations.

Personally light three sticks of incense and kneel in front of the Buddha statue, holding the incense in both hands and raising it above your forehead. When he closed his eyes to pray silently, he stopped thinking in his heart, was silent for a while, bowed three times, got up, and put incense into the censer.

Tables and chairs have been set up in the side hall, a single table for a single person, and the scriptures to be read today are placed on the table. Some pilgrims have already taken their seats. Su Xiangsi sat down in the vacant seat next to Su Yiling and looked at the scriptures on the table.

Su Yiling glanced at Su Xiangsi a few more times without a trace, and there was some mocking pity in her eyes, which was pity for Su Xiangsi.

Although the woman does not go to the school, she can ask her husband to teach in the school in the house. General Su once asked Mr. Teaching to teach a few young masters and young ladies in the mansion.

Su Xiangsi fell into the water when she was seven years old, and her body fell into the root of the disease and she stopped attending the class. Su Qing's Huigen is the best, and she learns things the fastest. The older the older the gap between the siblings became, and finally General Su dismissed the academy and let each academy hire a gentleman alone.

Su Yiling knew that Mrs. Su believed in Buddhism, and she had been working the scriptures by the Song family since she was a child. And Tingzhuyuan has never invited Mr. Teacher, this third sister is afraid that she has not yet read all the words.

"Qing'er, the girl sitting next to Yiling has never seen it." The delicate woman wears a temperament like an orchid, and at a glance, she knows that she is not an ordinary girl.

"That's my third uncle's daughter-in-law, and she rarely goes out on weekdays. I was afraid that she would be too depressed in the house, so I took her out to pass the time. ”

"No wonder I've never seen it, but why haven't I heard Mrs. Jin Anhou mention it." The girl felt strange, although the boudoir girl rarely went out, but there was no reason not to see guests. The daughters of other gods and daughters don't like to go out, and they will find ways to make their reputations

"This ...... This ...... "Su Qing is a little embarrassed" The third uncle and third aunt are not at home, and the third sister is alone, we are afraid that she will feel wronged, so everything will follow her. That's all he said. The girl in front of her suddenly realized.

Su Qing returned to her seat after greeting her acquaintance, saw Acacia reading the scriptures, and leaned over: "The third sister has never read the scriptures, and if you don't understand anything after chanting, you can ask the second sister for advice." ”

The girl was disappointed when she heard this, the two young ladies of General Su's Mansion were well-known in the capital, but the third sister seemed to be a shallow learner.

"How does the eldest sister know that I have never read the scriptures." Su Xiangsi's appearance of smiling made Su Qing stunned, "The chanting is about to start, eldest sister, sit down." ”

Su Qing was stunned.

This is the first time Su Xiangsi has replied to her?

Listening to the chanting of the monks is a boring and long process, which tests one's patience. Very few people can calm down, and there are not a few who are distracted. Those who come to hear the scriptures for the first time may not be able to endure hunger and cold, and faint in the temple.

Su Yiling thought that Su Xiangsi couldn't sit still, but she didn't expect that she would be calm after the whole chanting.

However, her third sister has never been simple.
