The thunder is thousands of peaks, the rain is full of peaks, and the entire Wan'en Temple is shrouded in smoke and rain.

In the dust mirror garden of Wan'en Temple, the bells are murmuring.

Because of the large number of pilgrims, Wan'en Temple repairs many accommodations, some cost less money, and some cost more money, only the dust mirror garden located in the mountain behind the temple gate, no matter how much money can not buy.

Only royal relatives or scholarly eunuchs are only accepted here.

In the Xiaguang Palace, faintly come the sound of chanting scriptures, there are curling Sanskrit incense lingering in the main hall, the ancient temple of green lights, the rainy night, like the secluded realm of the world.

And in the drizzle, a figure gradually appeared, interrupting the silence.

The man braved the rain, crossed the bamboo bridge, and walked to the front of the temple.

He had just walked to the front of the hall, and out of the hall came a tall man in green, wearing a long sword at his waist, with a grim expression.

Pei Yunyi brushed away the raindrops on his body, and was about to go inside, but was stopped by Xiao Zhufeng.

Xiao Zhufeng said: "Your Highness is debating the scriptures with Master Jingchen. ”

Pei Yunyi sighed: "It's been an hour, haven't you finished arguing yet?" ”

Xiao Zhufeng said with a handsome face: "The Buddhist scriptures are obscure, the Dharma is solemn, His Royal Highness King Ning is virtuous and good......"

"Forget it, Xiao Er," Pei Yunyi unceremoniously interrupted his friend's words and sneered: "Good deeds are often easy to fail, and good people are often slandered." Come to me and say this. ”

Xiao Zhufeng was silent for a moment, and lowered his voice: "The Queen Mother has been sick recently, and Her Royal Highness has asked for a hand-copied scripture to pray for the Queen Mother......"

Pei Yunyi said "oh": "I see." He glanced at the palace gate again, and sighed leisurely: "It's not easy to be the emperor's brother. ”

The two of them stood in front of the door of the palace, the eaves rained like hemp, miserable and sassy, looking at the past at a glance, like the two black stones standing in front of the palace.

Pei Yunyao looked at the rain for a while, and suddenly spoke: "Tomorrow's Qinglian Festival, will you go to light the lamp?" ”

"Early tomorrow morning, I will go down the mountain with His Royal Highness King Ning."

Pei Yunyi only stared at the rain curtain: "I thought you lit a lamp to pray for her." ”

Hearing this, Xiao Zhufeng's expression moved slightly, and he spoke after a moment: "I heard that you went to see her last night, is she okay?" ”

Pei Yunyi was silent, and after a while, he sighed and said seriously: "Xiao Er, if you kill Mu Sheng, in this case, maybe there will be a chance to be my brother-in-law in this life." ”

Xiao Zhufeng said calmly: "She won't be happy. ”

"Yes." After Pei Yunyi finished speaking, he was silent again, and after a while, he smiled, reached out and patted his friend's shoulder, but didn't say anything.

Only the lonely night rain does not stop.

……

The night rain in the temple always seems a little bleak.

But bleakness is better than weirdness.

In a house in Wuhuaiyuan, Ke Chengxing touched his shoulder, felt a little cold, and got up to close the window.

The little servant Wanfu was squatting on the ground, sorting out the hand-copied scriptures for him.

I don't know if it's a lot of heart or if it really has a miraculous effect, since Ke Chengxing came to Wan'en Temple, he really hasn't encountered the ghost of the Lu clan again.

In fact, from the day he planned to come to the Qinglian Festival, the ghost of the Lu family seemed to know very well, it was not as rampant as before, and he didn't sleep night and night like in the past, and he rarely slept two whole nights.

Therefore, Ke Chengxing regarded Wan'en Temple as a lifesaver.

Even if it is a vicious ghost, seeing gods and Buddhas is like a mouse seeing a cat. Ke Chengxing sat down at the table, the monk had already sent exquisite food, he was anxious for a few days, he lost a lot of weight, and now his heart is getting wider, and his long-lost appetite reappeared, so he took the dishes and chopsticks and feasted on it.

Eating and eating, Ke Chengxing remembered the Lu family.

Since the appearance of the Lu ghost, he forced himself not to remember his deceased wife, those nightmares were scary enough, and Ke Chengxing didn't want to ask for trouble. But now that he is in the ancient temple, blessed by the Bodhisattva, such a solemn and pure place, he finally dares to recall Lu's appearance in his mind openly.

Ke Chengxing treated Lu's family, in fact, it was love at first sight.

He went to the county to collect the old accounts of his father's kiln porcelain when he was in the world, and met bandits on the way, the carriage was hijacked, and the coachman was seriously injured and died in order to save him, and after he fled for several miles, he suddenly found himself in a strange wilderness, and there was no way to ask for help.

It was nearly evening, and no one was passing by, and wild beasts were often eating men in the wilderness. Just when Ke Chengxing was in despair, Lu Qian, who had returned home from a study tour at the academy, passed by by and saw that he was in a difficult situation, so he helped him and took him back to Changwu County together.

Ke Chengxing met Lu Rou at that time.

Lu Qian took him back to the Lu family, and the Lu family saw that he was pitiful, robbed of his money and penniless, so they took him in. Ke Chengxing wrote a letter to Shengjing and asked his mother to send someone to pick it up. In those days when they were waiting for the Ke family to come, Ke Chengxing and the Lu family also got along happily.

Ke Chengxing still remembers the day he first met Lu Rou.

He had just escaped death, covered in mud and in a state of embarrassment. Lu Qian helped him to a house, and he couldn't help frowning as he looked at the simple door in front of him.

The county seat is not big, and the houses on the street are really shabby, so the roof rammed with mud and hay is good if it doesn't rain, but if it rains, it will inevitably leak.

Just thinking about it, Lu Qian had already shouted at the door: "Dad, mother, sister!" ”

A clear female voice came from inside, and then a young woman came out of the dark room.

The woman wore a cloud bun, only inserted a carved wooden hairpin in her hair, wore a lotus lotus-colored cotton shirt skirt, long eyebrows, and a slight contempt. Although the hairpin skirt cloth is difficult to hide the beauty. The dilapidated hut became glamorous because of this beauty.

Ke Chengxing was so amazed by Lu Rou that he couldn't speak.

I didn't expect such a beautiful city to be in such a small city.

He fell in love with Lu Rou at first sight, and when he was in the Lu family, he always paid attention to this woman. Lu's father is a teacher, there is only one son and one daughter in the family, Lu Rou's younger brother Lu Qian is studying in the academy, and he can take the examination in two years. Although Lu Rou is a woman, Lu's father teaches his daughter like a son from another family, she is literate and hyphenated, and her poetry and etiquette are not worse than those of Shengjing's students.

Ke Chengxing became more and more excited, and after the Ke family came to take him back to Shengjing, he told Mrs. Ke that he wanted to marry Lu Rou. Mrs. Ke disagreed at first, thinking that the Lu family had a poor background and was not worthy of the Ke family.

At that time, Ke Chengxing knelt in front of Mrs. Ke and insisted: "Mother, although the Lu family is poor now, Lu Qian, the second son of the Lu family, is now studying in the college. ”

"We merchants, how difficult it is to marry the official family. If you hire a woman who is looking for a better family background, most of the woman's family is pampered. I have been in the Lu family for more than half a month, the daughter of the Lu family is gentle and considerate, thoughtful, and has read books, so I know how decent it is. If you really enter the house, you will never be unreasonable, and because of your low family background, you will inevitably be in awe of us, isn't it good? ”

When Mrs. Ke heard that his words were not unreasonable, she felt a little moved in her heart. So he sent people to Changwu County to inquire about the character of the Lu family, and got the statement that the Lu family was upright. I really couldn't resist my son's insistence, so I found an iceman to go to Lu's house to talk about it.

The family affair was set smoothly.

Although Ke Chengxing was born as a merchant, he was born handsome and chic, elegant and moving, just looking at his appearance, it is not an exaggeration to say that he is the son of an official family. In those days in the Lu family, he tried his best to behave mildly and politely in front of the Lu family, and the Lu family had a good impression of him.

And the fourteen dowry gifts are enough to express the sincerity of the Ke family.

In short, Lu Rou successfully entered the door of the Ke family.

Ke Chengxing has this wife, is there any shortcoming? Moreover, Lu Rou was not only born beautiful, but also knew how to advance and retreat, and the children of the clan secretly envied him behind his back for marrying such a virtuous helper.

Until that day, Fengle Building was ......

The wind outside the window blew the window with a "snap", waking him up from his thoughts.

The night was silent in the distance, and the mountain temple was like a behemoth in the sound of the rain.

Ke Chengxing raised his head, shivered, and asked Wanfu, who was cleaning up on the side: "What time is it?" ”

Wanfu looked at the missing moment in the room and replied, "It's almost midnight." ”

"So fast?"

Ke Chengxing's expression was grim, and he stood up: "Take the things, let's go." ”
