Chapter 160: The Wish (3rd Watch)
A soft breeze blew over Hua Jin's little face and blew her forehead hair up.
"Fifth girl, isn't that Xuan Gongzi over there?" The peach said behind him, his voice pleasant.
She raised an eyebrow and replied, "Looks like so." β
"Is it someone the fifth girl knows?"
Hua Jin looked sideways at Du Niangzi who was asking, "It's my brother's classmate." β
"It's also the lifesaver of our five girls." The peach added.
Du Niangzi smiled, "As the girl's life-saving benefactor and the fourth young master's classmate, the fifth girl should go forward to say hello." β
Her tone was calm and her eyes clear, "Those of us who are slaves are far away. β
Hua Jin bowed his head, and knew that Xuanfei would not appear here rashly if he had nothing to do, so he walked towards the stele tower where he stood.
"When contemplating the bodhisattva of self-contemplation, when he walks in the deep prajnaparamita, he sees that the five aggregates are empty, and he overcomes all suffering." Hua Jin recited the inscription on the stele, and the title on it was "Mahaprajnaparamita Heart Sutra".
"It turns out that Childe is reading the Heart Sutra."
Xuan Fei turned his head, his hair was tied up in a mess, although he only used a hosta to tie his hair, but the hairpin was white and lush, which complemented his cold cheeks, "The fifth girl often reads Buddhist scriptures? β
"Not really." Hua Jin said calmly, and asked him: "Childe often comes to the temple?" β
"I rarely come when I have something, and I don't come at all when I have nothing."
His answer was even more calm, Hua Jin raised his lips and smiled, "What is the so-called matter of the son coming here today?" β
"Your brother begs me for something."
"Brother has been bothering Xuan Gongzi again?"
"He asked me if I could find out the purpose of the princess's trip."
Hua Jin glanced back at the fragrant mist of the Daxiong Treasure Hall behind him, and smiled back, "Is that son clear?" β
Xuan Fei still stood with his hands in his hands, his face was calm and his voice was mellow, "In the half a year before Prince Su returned to the palace, I used the name of King Su to invite all the imperial doctors in the palace. β
Sure enough, as she expected, there was a big problem with the eldest sister's body.
But how serious is the problem? That is, how long will she live?
If even the imperial doctor in the palace is helpless, then the purpose of returning here is no longer to seek medical treatment, let alone seek Buddha.
Hua Jin raised his eyebrows and looked at Xuan Fei, "Can the prince tell me what her greatest wish will be with the status of the princess today?" β
Xuan Fei looked back at Huajin and saw her frowning slightly like a moon-cutting brow, and couldn't help but sigh in his heart: What a smart little girl!
Anyway, he came today to tell her the truth, so that she could be psychologically prepared, and he simply didn't sell it, "People in high positions will be very greedy for power." The princess is well aware of the benefits of rights, but she is also a mother, and she wants her children to keep this right for a long time. β
For the sake of the heir, for the sake of her nephew whom she has never met, for him to grow up safely and smoothly inherit the princely title.
However, she Zhang Huatong can't do this, her body doesn't allow it.
She can't accompany her son to grow up safely and healthily, so she needs such a person, someone from her mother's family, to protect her son from being mutilated by the calculations of future step-concubines after she is soon in the ground.
So she relied on her love with King Su to get a place for her own family to get a place as a step-concubine, this candidate can't be too old, it's best not to give birth within a few years of entering the palace, and can't become a strong competitor for Wang Shizi.
I have to experience it in the bloody rain in the backyard, so that I can't blow it down in the backyard of the palace in the future.
And this person should be a concubine, so that the identity of Wang Shizi's mother will not be criticized.
Therefore, Hua Tong's main purpose in returning to Zhangfu this time is to choose a step-concubine for King Su, and to put it bluntly, to choose an escort for her son.
Obviously, Hua Tong already has a goal, that is, she Hua Jin.
A loving mother loves her son, not for retribution. As her mother Hua Tong's calculations, she can understand, but she is unwilling to do this, even if the princess is a good destination that many women dream of, she is not willing, then there is no way.
Hua Jin raised his lips and showed a sneering smile, facing Shang Xuanfei's inquiring gaze, as if waiting for her answer.
"It's a pity that Hua Jin can't help with this matter. I can only pray for my big sister every day, hoping that my big sister can achieve her wish as soon as possible. She also didn't know why she wanted to tell Xuanfei what she thought.
I simply didn't think about it anymore, and I was slightly blessed, "Thank you for Xuan Gongzi's trust from my brother who came to tell me today." β
Xuan Fei straightened his sleeve robe, and his tone was calm and calm, "Xuan also thanked the girl for sewing the robe that day." β
"That's also the first time that Childe rescued him."
"It's inconvenient to stay here for a long time, so I will leave first."
"Xuan Gongzi walks slowly."
Watching Xuan Fei flick his sleeves and leave like a strong wind, Hua Jin thought of a question: How did he know that the sleeve was sewn by her personally, and was her needlework really clumsy?
Looking back at Du Niangzi, it seems that she really has to fill the faΓ§ade.
Today's weather is just right, and the group did not go back to the temple immediately, so they walked around the stele forest in the back mountain for a while.
It wasn't until Hua Tong sent someone to report that the scriptures over there had been finished, and the food was ready immediately, so that they could go back to eat.
The food in Baiyun Temple can be regarded as exquisite and delicious, but Hua Jin is a meatless person, so he put down the dishes and chopsticks after only a little use.
When I went down the mountain and returned home, the white cloud gathering at the foot of the mountain had not yet dispersed, and the crowd was bustling and lively.
Hua Jin could see that Hua Tong's mood was much brighter than when he came, so he also lifted the curtain and looked out, "Jin'er see if there is anything you like, although there are no too valuable things here, there are also novel things." If you fall in love with my sister and give it to you. β
"Big sister has already given Jin'er a lot of gifts when she came."
Hua Tong lowered the curtain, covered his mouth with a handkerchief and smiled, "What are those gifts, there are better things in the palace." It's just that the eldest sister can't bring so much from a long journey, and if she has the opportunity, she will definitely take her sisters to the palace as guests. β
Sure enough, he began to make moves, Hua Jin smiled secretly.
"That's enough." She didn't reveal her yearning for the palace.
Hua Tong saw that Hua Jin didn't follow her routine, so he changed the topic again, "If your eldest brother-in-law is here, he can buy the whole market to please us?" Your brother-in-law ......"
Hua Tong looked over again and saw that Hua Jin had already lifted the curtain and looked out, "Big sister, look, there is a clay man over there." β
Hua Tong only felt that her ruthless move was blocked by weakness, making her unspeakably depressed.
But thinking that the abbot master said that she would get what she wanted, Hua Tong also had to show confidence and make persistent efforts.
The imperial doctor said that even if she was hanging ginseng every day, she probably only had a year to live, and she still had a lot to do......
