The mountain gate of the Jade Buddha Temple has long been surrounded by water, and the pilgrims who enter the incense and listen to the scriptures are waiting reverently on the side of the road, waiting for a lecture for a while.

With a flower on her forehead, the girl was graceful, and walked with her maid with a smile; The old woman holding the child in her hand also carried a bamboo basket with incense and candles in her hand, and squeezed in from the crowd;

The most lively is the hawker who sells Hu Biscuits in the crowd with a small pick, covered with a handful of golden and crispy Hu Biscuits under the coarse linen white cloth, and the aroma is fragrant, attracting the children to bite their fingers and look at it obsessively.

Gu Mingli saw the lively scene outside from behind the rickety curtain, her face was full of curiosity, she turned her head and laughed softly: "It turns out that this lecture will be so lively, there are so many people coming. ”

She has been raised in the side courtyard of the house since she was a child, and she has not even been out of the courtyard gate a few times, and she can only come out to kowtow to the old lady and Gu Qing and his wife during the New Year's holidays, where have she ever seen such a scene.

Gu Mingzhu leaned against the window and smiled: "The lecture of the Jade Buddha Temple is famous all over the world, and the people invited to give lectures are all quite famous masters, and it is difficult to see them in their spare time, let alone listen to them preach the scriptures in person." ”

Gu Mingyue also spoke at this time: "I heard that this lecture will invite Zen Master Zhanzhen of Yunlin Temple in Jiangnan, who is a famous monk in the world. ”

"Zen Master Zhanzhen?" Gu Mingli was full of surprise when she heard this.

Gu Mingzhu smiled: "I'll see it in a while." ”

She was not curious, only calm.

The Gu family's carriage passed through the waiting crowd, entered the mountain gate, and went towards the Tianwang Palace, where the lecture was in front of the Tianwang Palace.

When she got out of the carriage, Gu Mingli's eyes were even more insufficient, and she looked at the several-foot-high Dharma platform in front of the main hall in a daze, and she couldn't come back to her senses for a long time.

Gu Mingyue smiled and said to her: "I'm afraid that the fourth sister has never seen it yet, this is the Dharma platform for a while, and the mages are going to meditate and preach on that high platform." ”

Gu Mingli saw Gu Mingyu on the side looking at her with a smile, full of sarcasm, and suddenly blushed, and lowered her head to look at her Luo skirt.

Gu Mingyue frowned and glanced at Gu Mingyu, and then smiled and persuaded Gu Mingli a few words, just as gentle and considerate as she usually was.

Gu Mingzhu walked to the Gu family's couch and sat down, not looking at the Dharma platform, but silently looking at the seat of the Ming Yellow Dragon and Phoenix Chengxiang brocade soft couch in the middle.

Today is the birthday of the saint, the double saints will come to the Jade Buddha Temple to listen to the scriptures, and the nobles in the palace will also come, Chen Liuwang is no exception, and Cui Qilang, who has been staying in Chang'an Chenliu Wangfu these days, will also follow.

So why did Cui Wulang come to Chang'an quietly, but he never showed up on such an occasion?

She thought of what she saw in Dongshi that day, a handsome and cold face carved from jade, and the eyes that looked at her were as deep as the night sky, and she couldn't see joy or anger.

What exactly are he and the Cui family planning?

Just thinking about it, another noble mansion arrived, Wang Yuanniang saw several ladies of the Gu family from a distance, and walked over quickly with the maidservant: "Yueniang, Yuniang......"

When he saw Gu Mingzhu, he smiled a little uncomfortable, and said, "The eldest lady is also here today?" ”

Gu Mingyue smiled and talked to her: "I haven't seen you for a while, you are a lot taller, this Hunan skirt is really good-looking, it's a new trick." ”

Wang Yuanniang is the best with Gu Mingyue on weekdays, and nodded with a smile: "It was only done by Tianxiangfang, and I just got on today." ”

Gu Mingyu smiled: "I'm afraid you deliberately wore it for us to see." ”

The three of them chattered and talked, leaving Gu Mingzhu and Gu Mingli aside.

Gu Mingli was very uncomfortable clutching her handkerchief, turning her body uneasily, glancing at Gu Mingyue and them from time to time, but when she turned around, she saw Gu Mingzhu sitting calmly on the side.

Gu Mingzhu's expression was calm, without the slightest hint of embarrassment, and that light and breezy look taught Gu Mingli to calm down and sit behind her silently.

Mrs. Cen San also came with Mrs. Cen Liu, and after meeting Mrs. Gu and Luo Shi, she said a few words, and then saw Gu Mingzhu sitting calmly on the side.

"The eldest lady is very good? I sent someone to the house twice to ask, and I was relieved to hear that there was no major problem. "Mrs. Cen San is still warm-hearted.

Gu Mingzhu was very grateful, got up and curtsied to her and thanked her: "It's already good to have Mrs. Lao care." ”

For a notorious and helpless lady like her, Mrs. Cen San can care so much because she is kind-hearted.

Mrs. Cen San looked at her, as well as Sister Gu Mingyue, who was talking and laughing with the lady of the Wang family, and smiled lightly: "Yun Niang has always been thinking about wanting to talk to you, you two small ones can play together, and I will talk to the eldest lady and Mrs. Wang." ”

Cen Yun smiled timidly and said to Gu Mingzhu: "The eldest lady is fine." ”

Gu Mingzhu looked at the mother and daughter of the Cen family, and couldn't help but feel a warm current in her heart, such pure kindness, she had never experienced it for many years.

Mrs. Wang was talking to Old Madam Gu and Luo Shi, and when she turned around and saw someone not far away, her face couldn't help but change slightly, and she said softly: "Taishifu is here." ”

The old lady of the Guo family never came, but it was a few ladies and ladies who came, and the second lady Guo followed behind with Guo Yulan from a distance, and the ladies in front of her with cold faces were a few steps away after all.

"It's the eldest lady of the Guo family, the second lady and the fifth lady." Mrs. Cen recognized it at a glance, and her tone was full of sarcasm.

"For the sake of the trouble at the Qujiang banquet before, the Guo family's room and the third room and the fifth room have no contact with the second room, and now they are all making trouble to separate the family."

The corners of Mrs. Cen San's mouth curled up when she said: "If it weren't for Mrs. Guo's refusal to agree, and she kept pressing, I'm afraid that the second room would have been kicked out of the Taishi Mansion a long time ago." ”

Gu Mingzhu looked at Second Mrs. Guo, but she hadn't seen her for a few days, but Second Mrs. Guo's expression was haggard and frighteningly old, her face was also dull, and the corners of her eyes were faintly wrinkled.

Guo Yulan followed her, and the mother and daughter lost their high-flying and domineering appearance in the past, and they were rarely low-key and quiet.

It seems that after Guo Yuxiu was sent to the East Palace, their life in the Guo Mansion was not easy, after all, everyone knew about the scandal at the Qujiang banquet, and they lost all the faces of the Guo family, how could other people in the Guo family tolerate them.

Second Lady Guo seemed to notice the gaze not far away, looked up, and saw Gu Mingzhu looking at them calmly, and suddenly became furious, looking at Gu Mingzhu's eyes could almost quench poisonous fire.

It's all this cheap hoof, it's she who caused their family to become like this, and they never have a good life again!

She would never let Gu Mingzhu go like this, the Guo family couldn't swallow this breath in vain!

Gu Mingzhu saw the hatred and viciousness in her eyes clearly, but she still looked back at her calmly.

She and the second room of the Guo family have been in a life-and-death situation for a long, long time.
