Volume 2 Chapter 23 Tianning Temple Puja
A few days later, the Ming court received accurate news from the border pass that the Tatars had indeed destroyed the country. Because of Zhu Qizhen's order, the people who lived in the Huitong Pavilion were very dissatisfied, and to put it clearly, the officials of Honglu Temple gave small shoes to wear.
In this regard, he first expressed a stern protest and issued a condemnation, but the officials of Honglu Temple did not change, and they still made it very uncomfortable for the Wara envoys to live in the same hall as usual.
The other small countries in the Huitong Pavilion, or the envoys of other countries who came from afar, saw what happened to Wara, and although there were discussions in private, they ended the arguments with the strength of the Ming Dynasty, and the small countries had no diplomacy.
He Qiaoxin took Ah Da to visit the people in the Huitong Pavilion, but when he walked to the door of He Mansion, he was stopped by He Wenyuan, who had just left the place.
"Qiao Xinwu'er, His Royal Highness King Yu will hold a festival in Tianning Temple tomorrow, and I specially let you tell you that His Highness invites you to participate tomorrow."
"Tianning Temple? But the Tianning Temple where the black-clothed prime minister Yao Guangxiao once lived? ”
He Wenyuan couldn't help laughing, the one in the capital is called Tianning Temple, isn't this one.
"That's right, it's that Tianning Temple, Qiao Xin has any doubts."
"No, the child still has to go to the guild hall, so let's go first."
took Ah Da straight to the Huitong Pavilion, He Wenyuan looked at the backs of the two at the door of the He Mansion, and was a little confused, in the Huitong Pavilion, are there people they know?
He Wenyuan didn't know that everyone had saved He Qiaoxin, and He Qiaofu originally planned to tell him that He Qiaoxin was afraid that He Wenyuan would worry, so he asked He Qiaofu to keep it secret.
When I came to the hall, I explained my intention, and the guards at the door went in to report. The guard of the hall is an official of Honglu Temple, and he is the Shaoqing of Honglu Temple. I heard that He Qiaoxin was here, and I was a little puzzled, but I hurried to the door to confirm.
When I came to the door, I saw He Qiaoxin's water-sleeved green shirt from a distance, and then looked down, a sword hung on his waist, who was not He Qiaoxin, the third son of He Mansion, who was not the Ming Dynasty.
"The ancestor has seen He Jieyuan, what is the matter with He Jieyuan coming to the Huitong Pavilion?"
The ancestor can be on duty in the same hall, and he is also at ease, and he is easy to communicate with people. was originally an official from the fifth grade, but he was so polite to a township who had just tried it, although there was a reason for Wenyuan, it can also be seen that the ancestor is very good at being a man.
"The students have seen the Yuan people, and the students came here to see Warat, and when they came, they also met Boyan Timur first."
The ancestor smiled and froze, this He Qiaoxin is really good at picking people, seeing Warat and his party, this Zhu Qizhen's order is not polite to the people of Wara, you will come to meet.
"Why don't you meet the envoys of other countries, such as the envoys of Luzon, be polite to our thieves, this envoy of Warat is not very good with us, and he doesn't like them at the top."
Fingers stretched out to the sky, He Qiaoxin understood, this is the little emperor who doesn't like the people of Wara, and behind his back, he asked Honglu Temple to wear small shoes for Wara and his party.
Knowing the cause and effect, He Qiaoxin didn't force it, and stepped forward without a trace of a bag of silver slipped into the ancestor's hand, the ancestor's expression changed, and he put the silver into the cuffs without a trace.
"Since this is the case, the students will not see the envoys of Wara, so they will bother Lord Yuan to help me bring a word, and say that He Qiaoxin is grateful to the people of Wara for saving their lives."
"Be sure to bring the words, He Jieyuan rest assured."
Leaving the guild hall with Ah Da, the ancestor sent a paragraph, returned to the door of the guild hall, touched the silver bag in the cuff with his hand, pinched it and turned it upside down, and the corners of his mouth were hooked.
It is said that He Qiaoxin, the third son of He Fu, is very talented, and he has made a lot of money in the past two years, it seems that what he said is true, this shot is a big mistake, this has to have five taels of silver, a big dog!
"It's gone, so let's go back?"
Hearing Ah Da's question, He Qiaoxin was speechless and pointed to his head.
"Ah Da, can you really grow your brain, don't dress like a Confucian genius all day long, and don't even move your head as a result."
Ah Da was reluctant to hear it, adjusted the sword behind him, and said to He Qiaoxin:
"It's not that you said that you want to see each other first, thank you in person, put this matter to an end, and go back like this without seeing it, I'll ask what's wrong."
"The ancestors are all pointing to the sky, you still don't understand, the little emperor has an opinion on Wara, let's go to Wara's side against the wind, you have lived enough in Daming."
"I understand when you say this, you scholars have a lot of fancy intestines, and they are twists and turns."
He Qiaoxin made a thumbs down gesture, and said with disdain in his mouth: "You know a bird!" ”
Although I don't know what He Qiaoxin's gesture means, Ah Da understood the meaning between the words, and stretched out his hands to make the same gesture towards He Qiaoxin.
When He Qiaoxin saw it, he hurriedly moved his hands together, and the people passing by on the street felt that these two nerves were abnormal.
The next day, at the gate of Tianning Temple, He Qiaoxin and Ah Da looked at the scenery of Tianning Temple.
In the northwest corner of Tianning Temple, there is a courtyard that is the former residence of Yao Guangxiao, the black-clothed prime minister, called the Grandmaster's Mansion. In the middle of the temple is the famous, famous relict pagoda, it is rumored that Yao Guangxiao is sitting in the relics pagoda, I don't know whether it is true or not.
Since the first year of orthodoxy, the flowers and plants of Tianning Temple have gradually flourished, and it has gradually become a place for young ladies and ladies in the capital to enjoy flowers and worship Buddha.
Before He Qiaoxin entered the temple, he saw the tallest dense-eaves brick tower in the capital, and also saw the flowers blooming on both sides of the road.
There was a little eunuch with sharp eyes, and He Qiaoxin, who was just about to enter the temple of Tianning Temple, was discovered, and hurriedly ran into the gate of the temple and went in to report.
Entering the gate of Tianning Temple with Ah Da, he saw the Wei companion he had seen in the palace last time.
"He Gongzi is here, the old slave gave He Gongzi a salute, the little eunuch saw you at the door, give me a report, the old slave hurried to pick you up, the festival was held in front, His Royal Highness has been waiting for He Gongzi for a long time, hurry up with the old slave to see His Highness."
"Father-in-law Wei, please lead the way, Qiao Xin will follow."
"He Gongzi here, please!"
Tianning Temple is divided into two courtyards, north and south, and the place where the festival is held is the front yard.
The front yard is added to the Tianning Temple to lead the main hall, the center of the courtyard is the relics pagoda, there is a table with golden silk steps at the entrance of the main hall, and Zhu Qiyu is sitting next to the table.
Seeing He Qiaoxin, Zhu Qiyu hooked his hand, and Wei Companion led the person to Zhu Qiyu's table and stood behind Zhu Qiyu.
"Come to Qiao Xin, this is your position next to you, all the talented and beautiful people of the young generation in the capital are coming today, hurry up and take a seat, the festival is about to begin."
"I've seen His Royal Highness the King of Servants!"
After the salute, He Qiaoxin took his seat, Ah Da stood next to him, and the two watched with interest, the royal festival was held, and I didn't know that it was different from the folk festival.
"I've seen He Jieyuan, in Xia Wei Ming, my father's criminal department is still Wei Yuan."
A son sitting next to him greeted He Qiaoxin, and when he heard that his father was Wei Yuan, He Qiaoxin didn't dare to slack off, and hurriedly replied:
"I have met Brother Wei, my father and Uncle Wei have always been good friends, and now my father is still working under Uncle Wei, it is really an honor to know Brother Wei today."
Wei Ming smiled, he thought that Qiao Xin was brilliant and peerless, and he was a young man, he would be an arrogant person, but he didn't expect to be so easy to speak.
He Qiaoxin took a look, and there were indeed younger generations all around, but the interesting thing was that they were all descendants of officials who had a good personal relationship with Zhu Qiyu like He Wenyuan, or the descendants of officials of Zhu Qiyu's family.
His eyes turned around, but he didn't see Qian curling, He Qiaoxin guessed that Qian Gui might not have a good relationship with Zhu Qiyu as he guessed.
"The festival begins!" Wei accompanied the old man's voice sounded, and he saw a group of monks under the leadership of an old monk, starting to circle around the relic.
Time passed, and the old monk recited a sentence, and the monks who followed followed him.
"Why? This person has no self. No one. There are no sentient beings. The lifeless one. So what's the case. I am right and wrong......"
The Diamond Sutra is usually used for meditation, and it is not surprising that it is used for blessings. But He Qiaoxin still wondered, since this festival was held by Zhu Qiyu, then the prayer scripture should not be this.
You must know that this is when Chengzu was alive, whenever he encountered a major event and could not make a decision, he would let the black-clothed prime minister Yao Guangxiao recite the meditation scripture, and use this scripture to pray for blessings in Tianning Temple, what Zhu Qiyu wants to do.
Ah Da is sleepy when he listens, for Ah Da listening to this, it is like going back to the days when he was a child, learning the four books, five classics and six arts in the family private school.
He Qiaoxin looked at Wei Ming, and saw that Wei Ming was also frowning, as if thinking about something.
He Qiaoxin was thinking about it, when the monks entered the second step, he saw a group of monks facing the direction of the palace, kowtowing, and chanting words in their mouths.
It's too far away to hear it clearly, anyway, what I occasionally hear is the prosperity of the Ming Dynasty, the prosperity of the royal family, long live the emperor and other words.
There was a snoring sound behind him, and he was too close to be heard by Zhu Qiyu, who was sitting at the door of the main hall, and turned his head to look over.
He Qiaoxin squeezed out an embarrassed smile and looked behind him, sure enough, it was Ah Da's snoring, seeing Ah Da like this, he slept quite soundly.
Stretched out his hand and pinched it vigorously, looking at Zhu Qiyu's cheeks here, good guy! It must have hurt now.
"Ahh
"Shhhh Be quiet, don't die. ”
Ah Da held back the pain and looked solemnly at the monks. He Qiaoxin turned his head, smiled slightly apologetically and said to Zhu Qiyu:
"Your Royal Highness, don't blame, Ah Da protected me last night and didn't close my eyes, maybe I was sleepy, and I didn't mean to disrespect the Fa."
Zhu Qiyu glanced at the two of them strangely and waved his hand.
"It's okay, if your guard is sleepy, you can let him go to the meditation room to rest for a while."
"No, His Royal Highness King Xie Yun cares."
Zhu Qiyu could only "hehe" to hide the embarrassment of He Qiaoxin and the others, but he still recalled in his mind that just now, He Qiaoxin pinched Ah Da, thinking that the corners of his mouth twitched again.
Towards the end of the festival, Wei accompanied him to the courtyard to read out Zhu Qiyu's reward to the monks, and also briefly said the purpose of today's festival.
