At this moment, Wang Kaizhi suddenly said: "Since Emperor Taizongwen of this dynasty, the Xu family and the Xiao family are both prosperous and lossy, as we all know, now the Xu family is a well-deserved descendant, and there are two generations of queens, namely Emperor Taizongwen's Deshun Holy Empress, and Emperor Gaozongsu's Empress Zhenxian, and the eldest princess Xiao Zhinan Xunzheng is in power, and his son-in-law Xu Beiyou is also from the Xu family. ”

Speaking of this, he paused slightly, and smiled at the husband and wife: "The ancestral home of the Xu family was in the capital, and it was not until the founding of the Great Qi that it moved into the imperial capital, and the Xiao family was rooted in the imperial capital during the reign of Zheng Mingwu. ”

Xu Beiyou didn't speak, and Xiao Zhinan opened his mouth to answer: "The old gentleman's eyes are like torches. ”

The old man shook his head and smiled: "What kind of wisdom is like a torch, it's just that you little couple don't want to deceive me, an old man." ”

After chatting, a group of people go up along the Shinto road again, and then walk out of the distance of four or five miles, the temple gate of the ancestral garden of the Buddha gate has been faintly visible, the temple gate is majestic, the momentum is magnificent, the south to the five thresholds are in the middle of the three, the single eaves rest the mountain, the eaves are heavy ridges and the golden tile roof.

At this time, the whole temple gate has been lit up, on the last section of the Shinto road in front of the temple gate, there is a monk who knows the guest every ten steps, it is not only to check the invitation, but also to guide the way for the visitors, after all, the ancestral garden of Buddhism has accumulated for thousands of years, it occupies a large area, the number of buildings, the complexity of the temple, the wide space, are not inferior to the construction after the post-construction, Da Zheng, The imperial palace of the imperial capital built by the three dynasties of the Great Qi Dynasty, coupled with the fact that it is a heavy place for monks, has countless hidden prohibitions, if there is no one to guide the way, the visitors either enter the forbidden land by mistake, or violate the prohibition, it is a big joke.

When it comes to inspecting the invitation, the invitation of Buddhism is not simple, and the so-called inviter is also a solemn gift. The original name of the invitation was Brief, and the chronicle was Simplified.

Jane, narrow and long, mostly made of bamboo and wood. Buddhism continues the ancient system, and the invitations are still made of bamboo and wood, which are divided into upper, middle and lower three.

The third-class invitations, made of good elm wood and bordered with silver threads, can only represent one person, and most of the people who attend the meeting, such as the characters of the scattered immortals, are such invitations.

The second-class invitation, made of the finest rosewood, with gold wire trimming and inlays, can bring ten followers. Most of the people who can get such invitations are famous people, such as Wang Kaizhi, who is a Confucian gentleman, he received a second-class invitation, so he brought ten disciples to the meeting.

As for the first-class invitation, it is made of golden silk nanmu, and the abbot of Buddhism personally waved the book, and can bring more than 100 people. Those who can receive first-class invitations must be the master of a sect, and they must be a sect at the level of three sects and nine streams, in addition, there are also the Great Qi court, Wei State, grassland, Muwangfu, and Houjian court will also receive a first-class invitation.

This time, Xu Beiyou and Xiao Zhinan received first-class invitations, but the two of them did not bring half of their entourage and came alone, not like Buddhist guests holding first-class invitations, but like ordinary people with only third-class invitations, just to join in the fun.

Not long after Xu Beiyou and Xiao Zhinan left the imperial capital, the imperial court had already announced the news that this time the Bon Festival Festival of Buddhism, Xu Beiyou would replace the position of Lan Yu back then, and participate in the dual capacity of the sect leader of the Sword Sect and the emperor's son-in-law Xiaoge Lao, but there was no mention of Xiao Zhinan's whereabouts, so that the world still thought that Xiao Zhinan, who had been promoted from Her Royal Highness the princess to the regent princess, was still in the imperial capital.

As soon as this news spread, it immediately set off great waves, and today, it can be said that it is no more famous than Xu Beiyou. Although it is true that the three saints of the Tianji List are tied for the same name, the other two saints will not appear in front of the world when they are idle, one has been sitting in the Xuandu for a long time, and the other has been in Daliang City for a long time. Only Xu Beiyou is different, he not only entered the WTO, but also set off a great movement, with the demeanor of Shangguan Xianchen back then, and his name can be said to be known to everyone.

Because of this, this Obon Festival, many people are looking forward to what kind of attitude this new great sword immortal will arrive at the Buddha Gate, is it stepping on ten thousand swords?

It's just that no one thought that Xu Beiyou would come to Buddhism in this way, and he was accompanied by a princess who should not have appeared here.

When you get here, and then go to the ancestral court of Buddhism, everyone has their own place, Wang Kai and his pedestrians are mostly going to Confucianism to meet with old friends, and Xu Beiyou and Xiao Zhinan as "children of the family", according to the reason to "hold together" with the children of other families, so a group of people parted ways in this place very tacitly, Wang Kai and a pedestrian went straight to the temple under the guidance of a monk who knew the guest, while Xu Beiyou and Xiao Zhinan were not busy entering the temple, but went in another direction along the mountain road.

The Obon Festival Festival is famous, in addition to the people who received the invitation, there are many uninvited people, plus some small households, only received a third-class invitation, but want to take the disciples to see the world, so they have to leave the disciples outside the door, so many reasons, so that outside the temple gate gathered a bustling group of people, Buddhism is not good to drive people directly, can only send monks to maintain order, as a result, many monks simply follow the example of the Julu City market, set up a stall here, anyway, under the nose of the Buddha, it is the day when the masters gather, and they are not afraid that there are thieves who dare to break ground on the head of Tai Sui, come and go, making it like a temple fair in the world, so lively, by many monks jokingly called the world's first-class temple fair.

Xu Beiyou didn't feel too deeply about this, but Xiao Zhinan was born in the deep palace since he was a child, but he was quite interested in such a fireworks-filled occasion, according to her, she has long admired the name of the "temple fair" here, it is said that there are many rare gadgets, and the price is fair, for ordinary monks, this place is far better than the obon festival that pays attention to the rules.

Probably aroused the feelings of the year, Xiao Zhinan pulled Xu Beiyou to walk around one stall after another, although it is a quiet place for Buddhism, but there is no shortage of female monks, most of these female monks will sell some rouge gouache and other women's things, not compared to the mundane things in the world under the mountain, everything that can be sold here has its own uniqueness, moisturizing the face is really not an empty word, it is very popular with rich women.

Xiao Zhinan is naturally no exception, and for the first time he told Xu Beiyou about many of his daughter's boudoir words, such as women's makeup, clothing, jewelry, light makeup, heavy makeup, peach blossom makeup, and rouge made of eighteen kinds of petals.

After shopping for a long time, Xu Beiyou watched her pick and choose, but she didn't buy it, and couldn't help asking, "Which one do you like?" or neither?"

Xiao Zhinan said with a smile: "Buying things lies in the word 'shopping', not necessarily to buy." ”

Xu Beiyou was stunned and said, "Addicted?"

Xiao Zhinan smiled but did not speak.

Xu Beiyou asked tentatively: "I feel sorry for the money? ”

Xiao Zhinan still shook his head.

Xu Beiyou had no choice but to go with her.

The two went around the stall, and Xiao Zhinan actually took a fancy to a few kinds of rouge, but the price was extremely expensive, which made her hesitate, and in the end she was not willing to spend a lot of money.

In the end, Xiao Zhinan only bought a box of rouge, which was not the best or the worst, and cost her a hundred taels of gold.
