Putuo Temple is not far from the capital, and they arrived at their destination after an hour.

Sang Xuanyue donated a sum of incense money, and was successfully assigned to live in a secluded Kuolang courtyard by the monk of Zhike.

Fortunately, they went out early and walked quickly, but as soon as they settled in the temple, the rain fell.

It's already winter, and the air is very cold, and in the afternoon, the rain turns into snow insects, and it tends to turn into snow.

Su Jin was glad, "Fortunately, when we came, the girl let us take a thick cotton coat, otherwise in this weather, we would have frozen to death if we went out in thin clothes." ”

It's actually okay now, although it's very cold outside, there is a charcoal basin in the house. And because the incense money given by the girl is enough, the temple treats them generously. Not only is there a sufficient supply of charcoal in the girl and the young master's house, but even in the house where she and Su Xin and Dongxue lived, the charcoal fire also warmed the house.

It's just that the quality of the charcoal fire is not good, there is a gas of coal smoke, and there is always black ash, so it can't be burned for a long time. Otherwise, when you wake up the next day, your designated nose and face will turn black.

Sang Xuanyue put down the book and began to wash under Su Jin's service. When everything was done, Su Jin said, "Tonight, the slave and maid will keep vigil for the girl, right?" ”

Sang Xuanyue shook her head, "No need for you." This day is tiring enough, you go back and rest. Tomorrow is the day of my mother's birthday, and there are still things to be busy, so you can take care of your spirits, just keep some snacks for me tomorrow. ”

"But there's been no news over there......"

"No news is good news, wait. Didn't we hire two dart masters, and they were watching in the dark. ”

Sang Xuanyue combed her black hair unhurriedly, and sent Su Jin back to her room to rest. When Su Jin walked away, the room was quiet again, and Sang Twisting Yue slowly stopped moving.

Her black hair like a waterfall hung down on her waist, her cheeks were as smooth as jade, her charming peach blossom eyes were calm, and the whole person was silently pondering something.

Getting up early and going out so early is intentional. First, I am really worried that it will rain today, and the mountain road is muddy and difficult to walk; But more importantly, he was worried that Sun Zhu would see their whereabouts and immediately follow them.

Sun Zhu is the son of Wang Xu's henchman, who is a typical villain. Earlier, when they were in the Wang family, Sun Zhu relied on his mother to gain power, and his heart even moved to Su Jin and Su Xin.

Sang Xuanyue also wanted to finish her mother's birth safely, so she naturally thought that she could let Wang Xu's people find out a quarter of an hour later, so she tried to be a quarter of an hour late.

Therefore, they pack their things while it is dark, and go out before dawn. And according to the character of "staying at home" set by her, if Sun Zhu is not a particularly scheming person, I am afraid that he will not think of them going out for a while.

But what if he had a scheming plan and bought someone to keep an eye on her whereabouts in the Hou Mansion?

Sang Xuanyue was worried in her heart, and felt that the latter was more likely.

However, today's rain helped them, and the mountain road was muddy and slippery, and ordinary people did not dare to rush at this time.

And there is also a prince in Putuo Temple who cultivates here, although he has long been ignorant of the world, but the guards around him are still there. Ordinary people are afraid of the majesty of the royal family, and they dare not make trouble here even if they want to.

……

It was getting late, but it was getting brighter and brighter outside, and when I looked out, I didn't know when the snow had fallen. The snowflakes had accumulated a thick layer on the ground, and even the rooftops and treetops in the distance had changed color.

The snow is really heavy.

Sang Xuanyue pushed open the door and walked out, Su Xin hadn't slept yet, she just splashed her feet and was about to go back to the house. Seeing that the girl had come out, she hurriedly came over and asked, "Can't the girl sleep?" ”

Sang Xuanyue: "I'll sleep in a while." Sanniang, let them go back to the house to rest. In today's weather, no one should come. ”

Sanniang and Wuniang are the two female dart masters that the nurse helped find, and the two of them are about thirty years old, and they are both grandmothers. is also in charge of the dart game, and is in charge of a large mess. If it weren't for the sang's screwing of the moon and the money, they would not have accepted this kind of errand.

As soon as Sang finished speaking, he saw a slender and slender woman coming out of that corner, and a little shorter, but more sturdy woman came out of the shadow of the courtyard.

The two are a pair of sisters and are married to a pair of brothers. followed her husband, who was a dart master, to the north and south, and the two were very knowledgeable. Sang Xuanyue counted on them to save their lives, so he didn't hide anything from them, the two knew who the enemy was, but in this weather, unless someone wanted to die, he would never enter the mountain at this time.

The two of them saluted Sang and withdrew.

They lived in two separate rooms, sandwiching Sang Xuanyue and Qing'er in the middle. According to their alertness, no one in the courtyard came, and if anyone did, the traps they had buried around the courtyard alone would be enough for someone to drink.

It was really quiet this night, but Sang Xuanyue had something on his mind, and he didn't fall asleep until dawn.

After sleeping for less than an hour, he got up again to celebrate his mother's funeral.

Sang Xuanyue specially invited a master to recite the scriptures, and the sisters and brothers performed three bows and six knocks, and then burned the Buddhist scriptures copied for their mother, and the clothes, shoes and socks made for their mother. Finally, they lit two more lanterns for their parents, and the sisters and brothers knelt in front of the Buddha and prayed to their parents not to worry about them and to reincarnate as soon as possible.

It's simple, but it's complicated.

Sang Xuanyue's body has been recuperating well this month, but she really can't stand kneeling in front of the Buddha for almost a whole day. When he returned that evening, he lay in bed and couldn't move. When she got up early the next day, her knees were swollen, and the bruises were so big that they were black and purple, and it was scary to look at.

Qing'er didn't break in coldly, and just saw her sister's swollen steamed bun with high knees, and the whole person was stunned and shrunk all over, as if he remembered something that made him unbearable.

Seeing this, Sang Xuanyue hurriedly beckoned his younger brother to come over, and comforted him gently, "It's just scary to look at, but it's not that serious." ”

Because her skin is delicate and snow-white, there will be bruises and purple marks on her body after being bumped. And the traces are difficult to fade, and some are even obvious after more than ten days.

In the Wang family before, after losing her husband, Wang Xu tortured her to vent her anger, and made her kneel at every turn, and let her kneel to copy books. Her knees were swollen during that time, and it looked like her legs were going to be ruined. But in fact, it's okay, although it looks terrible from the outside, she is also in pain, and the person who drags her leg is going to be lame, but although there is a part of the pain, it really doesn't get to that point. It's just that she pretends to be out of self-preservation.

It's definitely impossible to go down the mountain.

But they didn't plan to go down the mountain so soon.

I finally came out once, and I must take a few more days of relaxation before going back; It snowed overnight the night before yesterday, Putuo Mountain is steep, and you usually have to be careful when you go up the mountain, but now the snow will not melt, and the mountain is very muddy. Unless you don't die, who will go up and down the mountain at this time?

After a snowfall, the plum blossoms on the mountain bloomed, and the quiet plum blossoms spread throughout the Putuo Temple.

Before Sang Twisted Moon promised his younger brother, to wait for the plum blossoms to take him to Putuo Temple to enjoy the scenery, now it is a coincidence, the plum blossoms are open, better is the temple is clean, and now there are no outsiders to come. Wouldn't this be convenient for their siblings?

The two of them enjoyed the scenery and painting, and they were a little happy in Putuo Temple.

That is, when the sister and brother had a difficult time, in the Wei County Treasurer's Mansion, Wang Xu's face was dark and calm, coughing and covering his mouth with a handkerchief, the whole person was anxious and furious, and the whole house was raging.

The house was full of broken porcelain, and the maids outside the house knelt in the snowdrifts, their thin bodies shivering.

Wang Xu still didn't understand his hatred, and his mouth was like a demon, "Sluts deserve to die!" ”

Mama Grandma was obviously used to seeing this scene, and she knew that Madame's anger was not directed at herself, but since Madame entered the Hou Mansion, Madame has been crazy and punished the people around her.

She was black-hearted and ruthless, and in less than two months, four maids lost their legs and feet, and one died. Thanks to his own master, he has been operating on this one-third of an acre of land in Wei County for many years, otherwise his wife would not have been summoned by the government several times.

But in the past two days, Mrs. has become more and more angry, just because the pillar sent a message that Sang Xuanyue left the Hou Mansion and went to Putuo Temple. But it's been three or four days, and I haven't seen the pillar tie people back. Madame was angry that he was not doing his job well, and even she, an old woman, was angry.

Mama tried her best to hide in the corner and pretend to be invisible, silently praying in her heart that the unruly son would quickly bring Sang Xuanyue to Mrs. to dissipate her anger, otherwise Mrs. would toss it again, and her life would be almost dead when she was old.
