Chapter 10: Bright Moon

Li Shengxi didn't care, today's Zhou family is not as prosperous as Emperor Yongping in the early years, relying on only some foundations. If a family wants to take root, it can't do without its roots, but if it wants to be invincible and deep-rooted, it is naturally inseparable from military power.

Xiangcheng Marquis is a fierce general of the Northern Qi Dynasty, holding heavy troops, guarding Xichang, and is a copper wall of the Northern Qi Dynasty to block Xirong.

Li Shengxing smiled and didn't continue the topic, she looked at the beautiful piece of silk and asked, "You often deal with the rich and noble families in Beijing, do you know which lady often goes to Mingyue Nunnery?" ”

Yesterday, a laughing lady told her that Miaoduan was the sister-in-law of Mingyue Nunnery.

……

Zhou Lingwang knelt in front of the Buddha reverently, and bowed three times in a row before he got up with incense.

"Siniang, do you want to go back to the wing?" Red Bean helped Zhou Lingwang down the steps.

Zhou Lingwang would come to Mingyue Nunnery every month to offer incense, and then fast and bathe for three days to pray for the blessing of the family.

Zhou Lingwang shook her head, she smiled, "The scenery in the Mingyue Nunnery is excellent, now it is the early spring season, the grass grows and the warbler flies, if you don't go to enjoy the scenery, wouldn't it be a disappointment to the spring?" ”

During the state funeral, no feasting is allowed, otherwise, every time this season, there must be a lot of official daughters to go out together.

"The fourth lady is so interested." A familiar voice came from his side, and Zhou Lingwang looked sideways.

Li Shengxi, who was dressed in Nian Xipi, walked over slowly and saluted Zhou Lingwang.

"Gu Niangzi." Zhou Lingwang smiled and returned the salute, "Gu Niangzi also came to offer incense?" ”

Li Shengxing shook his head, "Although I put on a stick of incense, I didn't come here for incense." The concubine is not as pious as Zhou Niangzi, for business. ”

"Business? Could it be that the sea green worn by the masters in the temple is also supplied by Gu Niangzi? ”

Li Shengxing nodded.

Zhou Lingwang was originally just joking, but when he saw Li Shengxing admit it, he couldn't help but be a little surprised, the price of the silk embroidery workshop is extremely high, even if Mingyue Nunnery is a famous nunnery, it is impossible to set the business of the silk embroidery workshop for every nun.

Li Shengxi seemed to see what Zhou Lingwang was thinking, and said as he walked: "There are still a few embroidery workshops in the hands of the concubine, which are opened in the West Market, which are not as famous as the silk embroidery workshop, and the fourth lady has not heard much about it." ”

Zhou Ling saw that it was naturally impossible for these businessmen to make a living from just one shop, and it was not surprising that there were several shops that could eat them all.

"I don't know how to do the clothes that I asked the embroidery workshop to make last time?" Zhou Lingwang and Li Shengxi walked together, but she didn't mean to urge, that is, she saw "Gu Nianxi", so she asked.

Li Shengxing nodded, "The clothes of the fourth lady and several other ladies have been made, but the one of the third lady is a little more complicated, and it has not been made yet, and the concubine is thinking that when it is all made, she will send it to the fourth lady." ”

The third lady in her mouth is Zhou Lingwang's sister-in-law, Zhou Lingwen, that is, the one that the Zhou family is preparing to send to the palace.

Zhou Lingwang bent down and stroked the camellia in front of him, his expression was indifferent and elegant, "It's okay, don't worry." ”

"The four ladies often come here to fast, I don't know which master in this Mingyue Nunnery has the most refined Buddhism? The concubine often had nightmares some days ago, so she made a few peace charms, hoping that the masters would help open the light, and then hang them in the courtyard of the house to calm down and calm the nerves. Li Shengxi changed the subject.

Zhou Lingwang got up slowly, and when he heard the words, he replied: "The masters in the nunnery are naturally profound in Buddhism, but if this is the case that Gu Niangzi said, it is better to go to Master Jingxuan, she is the best at this." ”

Li Shengxing frowned when he heard this, and said regretfully: "Is this so? But the concubine just heard that Master Jing Xuan was too sick in bed, and she was afraid that she didn't have the energy. ”

"Master Jing Xuan is too sick?" Zhou Lingwang was slightly startled when he heard this, and hurriedly looked at the red bean beside him.

Hongdou is also at a loss, she is following her own lady, not leaving an inch along the way, when the lady is pious and incense, she is also quietly beside her, she has never talked to others, she naturally does not know that Master Jing Xuan is too sick.

Zhou Lingwang looked ashamed, "I don't often look for Mrs. Jing Xuan, although I have a relationship, but the friendship is not deep, and now that she is sick, I don't even know." I should pay a visit. ”

As the two spoke, they went to Mrs. Jingxuan's meditation room together, and before the two of them could walk in, they heard an argument outside Mrs. Jingxuan's house.

"Where's Miaoduan? I've been coming to Mingyue Nunnery for the past few days, and every time I say I want to see her, they always find all kinds of reasons to stop me, if I didn't know some people and ask them to interrogate, I wouldn't know that Miaoduan had been taken away. Where did you get Myoduan? ”

This is an extremely beautiful female voice, tactful and coquettish, even if she is angry, it seems to be with a thousand strands of affection, and women can't help but feel a little sad when they hear it, let alone a man.

"Miaoduan...... Ahem...... Miaoduan is fine, don't worry, I am her master, and naturally I won't harm her. She was only fifteen years old, so did she have to stay in the temple all the time...... You are her sister, are you really willing to let her become a monk? ”

"If it's a good place, why are you hiding it from me? I really don't want her to be a monk, but what does it matter if she's willing? They can inquire about it, and the people who took Miao Duan away seem to be eunuchs in the palace. If she is a monk, I can see her often. If there's anything bad, I can help her. But if she enters the palace, then I won't be able to look at her again......"

A trace of surprise crossed Zhou Lingwang's eyes, and she turned around, "Master Jingxuan is too guest, why don't you come back another day, what does Gu Niangzi think?" ”

Li Shengxi's face was embarrassed, and he nodded when he heard this, "It should be like this." ”

Jing Xuan is Miaoduan's master, and he is also the person who raised Miaoduan, which Li Shengxian knows.

In all fairness, Jing Xuan is very good to Miao Duan, she picked Miao Duan back from the outside more than ten years ago and raised her carefully, just like her own daughter.

Now that Miao Duan has been taken away by the Flower and Bird Envoy, if she is not sad and sad, she will not be bedridden after Miao Duan is taken away. But she is just a nun and has some fame, but how can she compete with the eunuchs, take a step back, even if she is willing to let it go, but what about Mingyue Nunnery? If she really went to make trouble, a group of nuns in Mingyue Nunnery, there would only be a dead end.

Because of this, she was depressed and couldn't afford to get sick.

Li Shengxi induced Zhou Lingwang to come here today, hoping that Jing Xuan, driven by his "love for daughter", would be able to confide in Zhou Lingwang something.

I didn't expect to hear this, but although it was an accident, it was a good thing for Li Shengxi.

After all, if there was no accident, she would have to find a way to make Jing Xuan "confide in her heart", and with this accident, it saved her a lot of effort.

There was just one thing that surprised her.
