Chapter 287: Concubine Jing's Secret Letter

Qi Mo fragrance fluttering willows like a line, time is like a flash of electricity, unconsciously, to Emperor Jinchun, since the death of the eldest wife, the eldest master has not continued the string, Xiao Mansion inside and outside the affairs are taken care of by Aunt Zhang, the second old man is not angry, although the second wife is a wife, but also nested in the nest is not treated by the old lady, for let a concubine take care of the house, but also dare to be angry and dare not speak, the old lady will also open one eye in the future, close one eye only do not know, but also fall idle.

Unable to see with his eyes, in addition to touching the flowers, the old lady prefers to listen to music, Aunt Zhang simply bought a few Qingqi to raise in Xiao Mansion, often sang to the old lady, and occasionally set up a stage, invited the troupe to come in, and please the old lady.

On this day, Aunt Zhang, the second wife and others sat together in the west room of the Shouxi Hall, accompanied the old lady to listen to the music, only to see the newly bought exquisite and timid sitting on the embroidery pier, gently plucking the pipa, like a pearl falling on the jade plate, and like a cold spring dripping water, the red lips opened lightly, bowed down and sang:

Drunk in the spring, the green window still sings to stay in the spring.

Asked where the spring was, the flowers fell and the cherry blossoms were speechless.

Misty and insignificant, trees in the smoke of the desert......

was listening to the engross, only to see Ruyan hurriedly walked in, leaned to the old lady's ear and said:

"Back to the old lady, Concubine Jing in the palace sent Gonggong Li to pass the word."

Hearing this, the old lady was startled, and hurriedly waved her hand to signal Linglong to stop, and ordered:

"Quickly send a message to the eldest master, order someone to set up an incense case in the front hall, and change clothes ......"

Without waiting for the old lady to finish speaking, Ruyan hurriedly said:

"Old lady, then Gonggong Li said that it was a secret letter, and Concubine Jing said, there is no need to put incense on the case, just let Gonggong Li dictate it to you personally."

Hearing this, the old lady's face froze, thinking that it was a secret letter, and going to the front hall to provoke everyone's suspicion, so he sent everyone away, leaving only the waiter and Aunt Zhang, who was helped by Aunt Zhang to get off the kang and sit on a chair in the ground, and then passed on Gonggong Li to come in.

After a while, Ruyan took Gonggong Li in, and the waiter had tea in the morning, and after seeing the ceremony, Gonggong Li didn't drink the tea, and said:

"Back to Mrs. Xiao, Concubine Jing asked the slave to pass the word, the prince played long live yesterday, because the emperor's filial piety has been full, ask long live to give marriage, marry Li Qing's daughter Mengxi as the crown princess!"

"What! Crown Princess! Hooray agreed? ”

Decree a marriage? That's it!

Not to mention that Xiao Junfei Mengxi will not marry, not to mention how much benefit Mengxi will bring to the Xiao family when he returns home, just say that once Mengxi is ordered to marry the prince and enter the palace, it is okay in front of him, the prince will ascend the throne one day, even if he does not become a queen, only a concubine, her status as a cousin will be crushed to death, in order to hide people's eyes, the prince will definitely destroy the Xiao family with his own hands!

It was too shocking, and the old lady was calm, but she couldn't hold her breath, and she didn't wait for Gonggong Li to finish speaking, so she asked urgently, seeing Gonggong Li's embarrassed face, Aunt Zhang was too busy and comforted in a low voice:

"Don't worry, old lady, listen to Gonggong Li first."

Only then did the old lady calm down, shut his mouth, his unfocused eyes stared closely in the direction of Gonggong Li, and when he saw that everyone was stopped, Gonggong Li said:

"The concubine said that because the Li family was from a low background and was a lower cousin, it would damage the royal majesty, and the long live lord did not allow it. But because of the appreciation of Li's talent, there is the intention of accepting the Li family as the prince's side concubine, because the father and son disagree, Long Live did not make an order for the time being, and Concubine Jing asked the old lady to make plans early. ”

Mengxi's medicinal skills are unparalleled in the world, it is always good to be able to collect them in the royal family, the prince intends to marry, how can he miss it, although he is stiff in front of him, I am afraid that once the royal family has this mind, Xi'er will be included in the East Palace sooner or later.

Hearing this, the old lady finally knew the word "afraid", at this time she hated to kowtow to Mengxi a few times, call grandma a few times, as long as she was willing to go back to Xiao's mansion.

The spirit of beating the spirit of serving the book rewarded Gonggong Li, and sent it out respectfully, the old lady immediately withered, Aunt Zhang saw it, and while ordering people to pass on the old man, she said cautiously:

"Old lady, otherwise, the concubine will persuade the second master again and ask him to take Miss Li back......"

The old lady shook his head and said:

"It's difficult, it's been almost four years, every time Xi'er came to the house, I persuaded her to come back, but because the ancestral training didn't allow it, she refused to die, and so did Jun'er, where is the domineering energy four years ago, just waiting without marrying, like an ascetic."

"Yes, the children of the third master are all toddlers, the second master is still so consumed, although you carried the red jade to your aunt, but the second master didn't even look at it, it was so cold in the jade garden, when did this have to wait until it was a head, the second master is a lover, if it really happened to give a decree to marry, the holy decree is difficult to disobey, I'm afraid it's ......"

Hearing this, the old lady shuddered, remembering all the past, if Mengxi really got married, I am afraid that Jun'er will not be able to live.

She is really old, not Mengxi's good medicine to raise, she has entered the coffin early, but Jun'er has no queen, she will not die. Although Yun'er has a son, she is not a grandson after all, how can she compare with Jun'er!

As soon as he entered the door, he listened to the old lady's relay, and the eldest master's brows were twisted into a pimple, and he was silent for a long time, and said:

"Mother, Xi'er entered the palace, not to mention that Jun'er would be a good person, just to say that Xi'er was the daughter-in-law of the Xiao family, and the prince would not let go of the Xiao family after he ascended the throne...... It's really going to be destroyed......"

"Who said no, it's just that the ancestral training is difficult to disobey, these years, because of the ancestral training, Xi'er will not come back even if he dies, I have thought of all the ways we should think, what else can we do?"

Seeing the old lady sighing, Aunt Zhang's eyes suddenly lit up and said;

"Old lady, it's better to tell Miss Li about this, Miss Li doesn't want to marry the prince, I'm worried that the holy decree will be issued, she won't be able to disobey, so maybe she will go home early......"

"How can anyone not want to be the queen, I heard that Xi'er has traveled all over the famous mountains in the past few years, and occasionally Jun'er accompanies him when he is not busy, and he is followed by the prince, Xi'er has never refused, it's hard to say that she doesn't like the prince, I want to wish for a long live marriage, otherwise, I came back so early after so many years, why bother to use Zuxun as a cover."

Hearing this, Aunt Zhang and the eldest lord both wilted, and the room fell silent for a while, and for a long time, the eldest lord raised his head and said hesitantly:

"Mother, I think back then, you listened to Master Jingyun's words, so you left Xi'er, legend has it that Master Jingyun has lived for hundreds of years, his virtue is immeasurable, and his mana is boundless, maybe he can help us pray to our ancestors and resolve this knot, we might as well ......"

Hearing this, the old lady's eyes lit up, yes, if it wasn't Master Jingyun, how could the Xiao family be associated with the God of Medicine, and the bell must be tied to the bell......

Sitting in the carriage, carefully listening to the gongs and drums on both sides of the road, such as the gongs and drums, mixed with the shouts of the high and low buying and selling shops, feeling the extraordinary liveliness here, the old lady secretly guessed that the Jingyun Temple had arrived. I didn't feel a little uneasy, I don't know if I can have the fate to meet Master Jingyun again this time......

This time I came to Jingyun Temple, the old lady was not as flamboyant as before, and was accompanied by Aunt Zhang, and there were only a dozen people in the group. It is said that in order to show piety, pilgrims generally get off at Yimen and come up all the way, but the old lady is old and blind, so Aunt Zhang directly ordered the carriage to pass through Yimen until it came to the Shanmen Hall before stopping.

Opening the car door, Aunt Zhang and the second wife got out of the car, walked quickly to the old lady's carriage, and helped her get out of the car, because the old lady couldn't see it, and everyone didn't enjoy the scenery in the courtyard, so they hugged and went directly into the Tianwang Palace, turned right and went out from the back door, and went straight to the Daxiong Treasure Palace.

Supported by Aunt Zhang and the second wife, the old lady climbed the bluestone steps step by step, came to the incense burner in front of the Daxiong Treasure Palace, the servant Ruyi had been waiting there, holding the incense that had been lit in his hand, seeing the old lady coming, both hands respectfully handed it over, Aunt Zhang took the old lady's hand to help her take it, the left hand was on the top, the right hand was held down, held high above the head and worshiped three times reverently, placed in the incense burner, connected to the nine burns, the old lady was supported by the two, turned around and stepped into the Daxiong Treasure Palace.

Entering the hall, the second wife stepped forward to donate a considerable amount of sesame oil money, and then came in to the servant, Ruyi will bring the offering one by one, there is already a small mass to take it, according to the rules one by one, such as smoke to come forward to lay the futon in the house, Aunt Zhang then helped the old lady to kneel up religiously.

The old lady knelt there with his hands together, reverently recited a few words, bowed down with five bodies, and after three bows, helped the old lady to get up, and waited for Aunt Zhang and the waiter to finish worshipping, the old lady ordered everyone to go out and wait after worshipping, and he was supported by the waiter and Aunt Zhang, and turned right to the back door and walked.

Out of the Daxiong Treasure Palace, Aunt Zhang and the waiter glanced at each other, did not know how to go to the abbot's room, was hesitating, only to see a small mass from the left side of the small door out, towards the Yuantong Palace, the waiter hurriedly let go of the old lady, stepped forward and saluted and said:

"Little master stays, my master wants to see the abbot, how to go to the abbot's room?"

"Amitabha, go forward from here, go out of that door, and turn left again......"

The little Mass pointed and spoke for a long time, and the waiter was a head and two big, and he listened in a daze, and when he finished speaking, the waiter begged:

"This little master said too fast, and the road is complicated, the little woman can't remember it for a while, can you please take my master there?"

"Amitabha, has this benefactor ever made an appointment with the abbot?"

"This ...... My master just took the liberty of visiting. ”

"Amitabha, the donor may not know, the abbot of this temple only sees someone who is destined, I'm afraid it's ......"

As he was talking, he saw an old monk with white eyebrows and white beard wearing a red robe walking out of the Yuantong Hall, and read from a distance:

"Amitabha!"

The voice was as loud as a bell, and it came out far away, the old lady's body trembled, and she turned her face away with the voice, and subconsciously shouted:

"Master Jingyun!"

The person who came was Master Jingyun, and I saw him slowly walking down the steps, coming to the old lady, clasping his hands together, and saying:

"Amitabha, goodbye donor, we are also destined."

"You are really Master Jingyun, do you remember meeting a disciple six years ago?"

Hearing this, the old lady asked tremblingly.

"Amitabha, the female donor, it is Lao Na, Lao Na has been waiting for you for a long time, and I didn't expect the donor to come today."

Listening to Master Jingyun's words, the old lady let go of Aunt Zhang's support, bowed reverently in the direction of the voice, and said:

"It's really you, the disciple, who meets Master Jingyun."

"Amitabha! Donors don't have to be polite. ”

was helped up by Aunt Zhang, and the old lady said reverently:

"The master once lit the disciple six years ago, saying that the disciple's granddaughter-in-law is a nobleman, and asked the disciple to leave her with the grandson, but this person's background violated the disciple's ancestors' teachings, causing this person to leave the house four years ago, and has been unwilling to return to the house, this person's background can not be changed, and the ancestral training is even more difficult to disobey.
