The autumn sun is blazing, the streets are bustling with pedestrians, and the roadside shops and stalls sell everything from vegetarian buns for a penny to antique treasures worth thousands of dollars. Some people say that in the capital, as long as you have the right and money, there is only what you can't think of, and there is nothing you can't buy.

Merchants from other places walked through the crowd, looked at the prosperous scene in front of them, and couldn't help but sigh: "It is worthy of the capital!" The weather of the imperial capital is really extraordinary! Suddenly, I saw a nun on the side of the road, he was a devout believer in Buddhism, he was busy taking out a few big money from his sleeve, bought a few vegetarian buns, and gave them to the nun, and received some praise and thanks.

Suddenly, there was a commotion in the crowd at the end of the street, and they fled to the side of the road in a panic, and with the sound of hurried horses' hooves, six tall horses galloped towards them with uniformly dressed and heavily armed guards. It was followed by a large and splendid carriage, and behind it was a smaller carriage, also decorated with jewels, and behind it were six other knightly guards. This group of twelve riders and two bicycles, as if they didn't know that they were walking on a crowded street, just rushed forward, startling pedestrians to avoid it.

The carriages and horses galloped past, bringing up a cloud of dust. The pedestrians coughed and returned to the road, all looking at the back of the car driving away, pointing and pointing.

The merchant was so smoked by the dust that tears flowed out, and when he finally felt better, he saw the nun who was talking to him fall to the ground, and hurriedly asked, "Little Master, are you okay?" ”

The nun slowly got up and titheed: "It's okay for the poor nun, thank you for the donor's inquiry." So he lowered his head and wiped the pot, but unfortunately the food in it was already covered with dust.

Only then did the merchant find out that this nun had clear eyebrows, fair skin, and was only about 20 years old, so why did she become a monk? It's a pity, it's a He sighed secretly and asked the stall owner next to him, "What is the origin of the owner of that carriage?" It's so domineering! ”

The stall owner said: "The guests don't know, it's our famous peerless beauty in Beijing, the young lady of Liu Shangshu's family, and the sixth lady of the Pingyang Gu family!" What a real famous lady! ”

The merchant wondered: "Even if you are from a famous family, there is no reason to be so domineering, right?" ”

The stall owner showed an ambiguous smile: "Her husband's family is already powerful, but the most powerful is her backer!" You don't know, do you? There are several nobles standing behind her! I heard that even today's queen mother, when she sees her, she is called a sister! ”

The merchant wondered even more: "What is the reason for this?" ”

The stall owner smiled but said nothing.

"Silence! Where are you?! A female voice came from not far away, and the nun who was standing on the side was distracted, reacted, hurriedly saluted the merchant again, hurried away, and whispered "Senior Sister" to another middle-aged nun who greeted her.

The middle-aged nun frowned: "Why did you get the meal dirty?" Master is shouting at us, if we don't go back to the temple, we will miss the lunch class! ”

"Yes......" The young nun bowed her head and meekly followed her.

The merchant watched them go away, and found that under the ugly face of the middle-aged nun, the young nun was even more beautiful, why did such a beauty become a monk? Remembering that the owner of the carriage was a peerless beauty, he couldn't help but shake his head. What about the beauty? My daughter's family still has to be docile and gentle!

"This guest, I have all kinds of refined hairpins here, do you want to buy some back?" Let the lady and the lady wear it to add a bit of style! The stall owner enthusiastically recommended his goods to him, and he looked at it, remembering that his youngest daughter was already in the mood for love, so he squatted down and picked it up with great interest.

The streets were bustling again, as if nothing had happened. However, in the hearts of some people, the carriage and the majestic guards cannot be easily forgotten.

The northwest of Dabaoguo Temple, is a dense forest, there is a nunnery behind the forest, it was originally the place where the nuns under the jurisdiction of the temple practiced, and occasionally there will be foreign nuns to come to place orders. When it got dark that day, the nuns in the nunnery had done evening classes, and then they went back to their rooms to recite the scriptures.

The middle-aged nun who had shown her face in front of the foreign merchants during the day was crooked on the couch, holding a thin bamboo stick and picking her teeth, and complained: "I heard that the fast meal of this Dabaoguo Temple is very delicious, otherwise I would not persuade the master to come here to place an order, but I didn't expect the nunnery to open a separate unit, and the food made is unpalatable, and I didn't get anything good when I went out, so it's really unlucky!" ”

The object of her speech was none other than the young nun Jingxu, who was now sitting upright at the table, closing her eyes and reciting the scriptures, and hearing her complaints, but did not speak.

The middle-aged nun was dissatisfied: "I'm talking to you!" What kind of shelf?! ”

After reciting the last few words of the scriptures, Jing Xuan opened his eyes and said lightly: "Senior sister, monks need to abstain from hatred and have a pure heart and few desires. ”

The middle-aged nun rolled over and sneered, "I'm the senior sister!" You've only been with Master for a few years? Just preach to me?! ”

Jingxu bowed his head and said nothing. The middle-aged nun knew that she was a docile and silent person, and she no longer scolded, but said sarcastically: "I know you are not happy today!" When I was on the street, I heard that the rampaging nobleman was the young lady of Liu Shangshu's family, the sixth lady of the Pingyang Gu family! Aren't you also the young lady of Pingyang Gu's? So what?! People are high-ranking nobles, with fine clothes and food, but you can only nest here, the green lantern ancient Buddha, eating unpalatable food! No one will take a second look at them when they die! ”

Jingxu's eyelids trembled slightly, and she returned to calm, and said lightly: "That's all the past, I've forgotten it, why should Senior Sister still remember it?" ”

The middle-aged nun sneered: "You said it lightly, you sleep in the open every day, you have three disasters and eight disasters, and we are the ones who suffer!" If I hadn't persuaded Master to place an order here, and she had recognized a few sincere official wives who were willing to listen to the Dharma a few times, we would have starved to death! Since you are the daughter of a noble family, why can't you share the worries of the master and sisters?! After a pause, she suddenly remembered something, and suddenly turned her anger into joy: "Yes! I just heard from the people in the nunnery that the noble lady is going to pray for blessings in Dabaoguo Temple today! You are all a family, why don't you go and talk to her and let her reward us with more sesame oil?! It's also filial piety to the Master, isn't it? ”

Jingxu was silent, the middle-aged nun was anxious, so she came forward to urge her, she got up to avoid, turned around and walked out of the nunnery, but did not go to the temple in front of her, only lingered on the edge of the woods.

The night was dewy and a gust of autumn wind blew, and she couldn't help but shiver. He shook his hand and looked up at the sky by chance, but found that today was the full moon, and the moon was big and round, hanging brightly in the sky. She looked at it and burst into tears.

It's been a long time since she's been in such a leisurely way to enjoy the moon, and the last time it was when her grandmother was alive, right? She was raised by her grandmother after her parents died when she was a child, and because she had no brother to support her, she was just a neglected daughter in the clan. After my grandmother died, I had no support. She cautiously and strictly adhered to the discipline of the boudoir, did not dare to say a word, and took one more step, for fear of being looked down upon, but the final result was really not good.

The boldest and most outrageous thing she has done in her life is to refuse the marriage arranged by the patriarch and resolutely become a monk, right? Although the life of the monk was very hard, she felt much more relaxed, compared to the oppressive life in that big family, she would rather endure hunger and cold, and even the daily complaints and sarcasm of her senior sister were as happy as they were.

Another gust of cold wind blew, and he shivered quietly, and then looked at the moon, but felt that the moonlight had become a little weird, and it actually brought some blood. She thought she had misunderstood, and was about to see more clearly, when she suddenly heard footsteps hurrying towards her. Could it be the monks in the temple? Quietly retreated behind a tree.

However, what appeared under the moonlight was a group of three people, two men and one woman, one of whom was wearing a guard uniform, just like the knight he had seen in the daytime, and that woman, beautiful and beautiful, who was not the sixth cousin of a wealthy family and a prominent position?

She was in a trance for a while, and suddenly saw her old friend, and she couldn't help but sigh. The sixth sister has always been the pearl of the Pingyang Gu family, and since the age of ten, she has been famous for her talent. Her father was a high-ranking official in the court, and her brothers were all outstanding talents, and there was no more beautiful sister in the former clan than her.

"Who?!" The other man suddenly spoke, and the eyes of the three of them swept in the direction where Jingxu was.

Jingxu had palpitations for a while, and hurriedly walked out. Although the man was dressed in fine clothes, his eyes were full of anger, he was by no means a good person, and it was better for her to identify herself as soon as possible.

The three of them were slightly relieved to see that it was a nun. It's just that the noble lady saw that the nun had been staring at her, and she was a little displeased: "Where are you a nun?!" ”

Jingxu smiled bitterly, after a few years of parting, she no longer recognized herself? Then he opened his mouth and shouted: "Wen Hui ......"

The face of the man in the fancy clothes changed, and before she could say anything, the silver light flashed in his hand, and Jingxu felt a chill in his heart, and then he saw a silver sword sink into his chest, and as the sword body was pulled out, she lost all her strength and fell to the ground softly.

Wen Hui asked urgently: "What are you killing her for?!" If you make the abbot angry, you can't guarantee that you won't leak our business! ”

The man in gorgeous clothes sneered: "This nun knows your name, who knows what the intentions are?" It's better to start first and save you trouble! Let's go, just throw the murder charge to the person behind us! Wen Hui stopped pestering them when she heard this, and hurriedly followed them away.

Lying on the ground quietly, her body getting colder, and her eyes gradually drifting, but she was unwilling, why...... Give her a reason!

It was only the passage of blood that gradually took her life, and her consciousness sank into darkness completely, only the strange moonlight still shone on her corpse.

I don't know how long it took, she woke up from the scorching heat, only to feel as if there was a fire burning in her body, tossing and turning, and screaming in pain. A familiar and unfamiliar voice whispered in her ear: "You must be safe, you must get through......"

She searched for the voice in her memory, but the answer made her disbelief, and when she opened her eyes suddenly, she almost gasped for breath when she looked at the loving face in front of her.

"Wake up, wake up! Old lady, little lady is awake! The old woman straightened up in surprise and ran out.

Jingxu, on the other hand, looked at his small hands in disbelief, and glanced at the furnishings in the room, only to feel a rumbling in his head. Isn't it her grandmother who has been dead for many years who entered the door with the support of the old woman just now?!

Is the Buddha blessing? Is this a dream or is it real? She's actually reborn!

At this time, she was still a ten-year-old girl, her family business had not yet fallen and withered, her grandmother had not died, and she was not an orphan girl who was helpless and could only be manipulated by others, and she had not yet become a monk......

Her name...... It's still Gu Wenyi.
