Hou Mansion has a daughter to marry

Chapter 256
Morning bells and evening drums, Qingshan Temple is hidden among the mountains, there is only a natural mountain road winding up, and the steaming incense is lingering, the temple seems ethereal and unreal, as if it was morning, the clouds are in the fog, and the Sanskrit sounds are faint, just like The Qionglou Yuyu in the sky is too secretive.

Because of a matter on her mind and nothing else to do during the day, Princess Zhongqin had a whim and immediately pulled Kou Lianyi and Xie Changan to offer incense at Qingshan Temple.

Autumn is inevitably bleak, but the autumn scenery among the mountains has a special taste.

The sky is high and the clouds are clear, clear and bright. Wild geese fly south and suddenly change their appearance. Occasionally, a mountain eagle is vigorous and bends down, not knowing what kind of prey its sharp claws land on.The forest is half untouched, and there are Xiao Xiao's fallen leaves in front of her eyes, going with the mountain wind, crossing the dry branches, crossing the ridge, and going deeper into the mountain, where the lush greenery seems to hide endless hope.

The pilgrims who came and went were all elegant. Two young girls in moon-white robes stood under the shade of the trees. Suddenly, there was a pleasant mountain breeze, dancing the leaves all over the trees. The sound of the piano matches.

Although Xie Chang'an and Kou Lianyi were not elegant people, seeing the scenery in front of them, they were moved and excited. They wanted to imitate the literati and poets in reciting poems to fight against each other. Kou Lianyi said two words, "It's so beautiful!" The two looked at each other and smiled, as if they understood each other's embarrassment.

Princess Zhongqin is not as happy as Xie Chang'an and Kou Lianyi. After walking for a quarter of an hour on the mountain road, Princess Zhongqin breaks out in a little sweat and can't help panting slightly. Complaining, I would have gone to Tongguang Temple if I knew it earlier. Anyway, the carriage can go straight to the gate of the temple.

Alas, it's not just for the word of piety.

Seeing Prince Zhong's distressed look, Xie Chang'an smiled lightly, and said thoughtfully: "Mother, it's still early, we are not in a hurry, if we take a short rest, it will not be too late to go forward."

After finishing the words, Kou Lianyi could hear Kou Lianyi shouting, "Mother, Sister Chang'an, there is a pavilion here!" I have to say, Kou Lianyi's "mother" became more and more fluent.

Unbearably old and feeble, and delighted in the thoughtfulness and thoughtfulness of the two daughters-in-law, the loyal princess smiled and nodded, and Xie Chang'an went with Chao Kou Lianyi.

At first glance, it looks like a simple resting pavilion, but when you walk in, you can see scriptures carved on the inconspicuous pillars. The handwriting is strong and powerful, and the writing is like flowing water.The scene of Xuanzang traveling to spread Buddhism is painted on the top of the eyes, which is solemn and dignified, but not lacking in compassion.If you lower your head to look at the ordinary stone bench, I think there is another unexpected joy.

The loyal prince and concubine who has always come to pay respects to the Buddha sighed: "This Qingshan Temple is full of Buddhism."

This is also why although Qingshan Temple is "blocked and long" and hidden deep in the mountains, there are still an endless stream of pilgrims coming here.

Although Xie Chang'an and Kou Lianyi didn't believe in ghosts and gods, they were able to enter the green mountains. Although they hadn't entered the temple yet, their hearts were inexplicably peaceful, and their troubles and miscellaneous thoughts were completely thrown among the mountains and disappeared without a trace.

In the shade of green and yellow trees, you can vaguely see the Qingshan Temple surrounded by incense. Xie Chang'an's clear eyes are condensed, and there is a slight movement, and the deep worry is not concealed, but there is no pious prayer in his heart.

In comparison, Kou Lianyi is carefree. Once married into the palace, she is the honor of the princess. There is no need for a mother to be expensive according to her son. After being promoted to a noble position, the smart and beautiful eyes only look at the freshness, and the heart is leisurely, and there is no more touch.

But it is new. Because there are no elders in the family, how can Kou Lianyi, a young girl, come to the temple, no matter what she asks for, it always makes people daydream. What happened today can be regarded as an "ice-breaking journey" with the temple for more than ten years. ", As for whether he went to a temple when he was young, it is unclear.

After a short rest, Princess Zhong regained her strength and called Xie Chang'an and Kou Lianyi to continue going up.

The Sanskrit sound becomes clearer and clearer, and I don't feel noisy, I only feel the mood of the eyes, which is a peace that cannot be found anywhere else.The incense cauldron in front of the temple is filled with smoke, which is enough to show the number of believers or the sincerity of their hearts.The dignitaries, the ordinary people, are all just devout believers here.

Xie Changan knelt on the futon, staring at the compassionate Willow Bodhisattva, silent for a while, then closed his eyes, asking for nothing but peace and health.

Kou Lianyi seemed to have nothing else to ask for, her eyes seemed to be closed, she looked around quietly, but her face was full of freshness.

Needless to say, Princess Zhongqin asked so much, so much so that the two got up from the futon, burned incense, and when they looked back at Princess Zhongqin, they vaguely felt that Princess Zhongqin still had many wishes that had not been prayed for.

The two of them were waiting by the side, not the slightest bit impatient, because what the loyal prince and concubine wanted was for them.

Xie Chang'an thought for a while, and said to Kou Lianyi: "Lianyi, you wait for mother here, I went to ask for a peace talisman." In Xie Chang'an's heart, the matter of Bamuza has never ended, even during this period of time calm.

If believing in Buddha can keep the two little guys safe, why not?
When the three of them were all ready, the sun was already rising, and their belly was empty, so it was hard to avoid embarrassment, Princess Zhongqin hurriedly smiled and said: "This noodle tastes good, why don't you go and try it." The two went to another place.

Seeing a lot of people waiting not far away, I knew that the noodles were not bad.

Zhongqin Wangfei and the others consciously waited by the side, and did not urge them, but the scent of noodle was urging the gluttons in their stomachs.

This is Qingshan Temple, regardless of class, no privileges, but it is equal to all living beings as stated by Buddhism.Naturally, there were people who broke the rules in the past, but they all asked the stern and selfless abbot to "please" out of the temple gate, so as to make an example of others.

Speaking of this and the presiding officer, his whereabouts are erratic, as if he is always in the temple, and he seems to be absent, and he cannot be seen on weekdays. He only says that the monks show up when they encounter difficulties. The mystery of mind Buddhism.

Xie Chang'an didn't know that she had met this host before, and would meet again soon, so naturally this is a later story.

When the three of them ate the vegetarian noodles as they wished, the greedy worms in their stomachs almost couldn't hold back and sang a song. The noodles were chewy, and the noodle soup was sweet. It seemed to be mountain spring water made from local materials, and the shredded mushrooms were also delicious, simple and delicious. Simple.

It was the hungry Kou Lianyi who swallowed the jujube whole, but wiped out the noodles in a moment, patted his belly with satisfaction, and said with a smile on his face, "delicious, delicious!"

Xie Chang'an and Princess Zhong glanced at Kou Lianyi, who was informal, thought it was a smile, and continued to use it slowly.

After lunch, Quan Dang went down the mountain for a walk, and the three of them walked down the mountain slowly along the stone path, but they didn't know that a monk looked at the three of them from a distance, and murmured: "It's difficult, But I have to go south..." After speaking, a trace of anxiety seemed to appear on his compassionate face, and he turned around and went to an unknown path.

The reason why Xiao Yu didn't follow today was because he went out early in the morning for some reason, thinking that he didn't want to disturb Xie Changan's clear dream, so he didn't ask.But Xie Chang'an was not worried that Xiao Yu would dare to flirt with others.

It was Yan Qinglan who Xiao Yu made an appointment with.

Every time the manager of Qinlefang saw the drowsy shopkeeper, he no longer panicked when he saw Xiao Yu, and occasionally laughed and chatted, and then led Xiao Yu behind.

When Xiao Yu came, Yan Qinglan had arrived early and was leisurely drinking tea. It was the new tea that Master Liu got, so Xiao Yu was also lucky.

"Senior Yan, I've been bothering you so early this morning, I don't think it's strange for Shizi Yan."

Yan Qinglan smiled gently, got up and greeted Xiao Yu to take her seat, seeming to be teasing, "You and I are not brothers who live and die together, but also half acquaintances, and King An is so unkind, but it is not humane." .”

Xiao Yu followed goodness like a stream, "The friendship between a gentleman and a gentleman is as light as water. Prince Yan is a gentleman, and I have also inherited this way."

After exchanging a few casual greetings, Xiao Yu stopped joking, and cut to the point: "Sir Yan, I invited you here today because I have something to discuss with you." The ins and outs of the remaining forces were explained in detail.

Xiao Yu is self-reliant and keen, and also feels that Yan Qinglan has always been intelligent, but now she is in a cloud of fog, if Yan Qinglan is asked to think about it as a bystander, she may have a different view.

The fragrance of tea is lingering in the room, no outsiders bother them, the two of them are also silent, they can vaguely hear the sound of people coming and going in front.

After a long time, Yan Qinglan gradually showed worry, and said in a deep voice: "If I think right, those people just made a feint and did not suffer serious injuries. King An still needs to be careful."

Xiao Yu was startled, his clear eyes caught Yan Qinglan's warm eyes, and he didn't make a sound, his eyes were floating, but he was thinking.

"But that's the case..." Xiao Yu is not stupid, he knows a little bit, but he refuses to believe it. If so, just wait for one person to be unprepared, and he may be killed at any time...Jun Mei frowned, his eyes were condensed, as if What kind of resolution was made, and he said in a deep voice: "We must not sit still and wait for death."

Yan Qinglan nodded, instead of worrying about it all day, it is better to lead the snake out of the hole, so as to avoid future troubles.Knowing that Xiao Yu is a smart person, Yan Qinglan didn't say any more, just took a cup of tea and tasted it, "I hope you are safe and well."

Although he was worried, his eyes were firm and unstoppable. Xiao Yu raised his eyes and smiled at Yan Qinglan, but the smile didn't reach his eyes, "Don't worry, Mr. Yan, he is the only one who dies, nothing else."

Because she had something on her mind, Xiao Yu didn't delay much, thanked Yan Qinglan and went back home, but Yan Qinglan stayed and competed with Liu Fangzhu in silk and bamboo orchestral arts, she really is an elegant person.

When Xiao Yu returned to the mansion, he went to see the two little guys first. Because no one was with him today, Xiao Ruoying was throwing a temper tantrum. When she saw Xiao Yu, her pink and jade-carved face finally broke into a smile, babbling. , is naughty and doesn't call his father.

Seeing the pink and tender dough balls coquettishly in his arms, Xiao Yu's heart was so soft that it couldn't be controlled, but the depths of his eyes became incomparably hardened, and the black clouds pressed down on the city to destroy it.
