imperial concubine

Chapter 92
In the early morning, as soon as Su Wan opened her eyes, Zhu Ru sent her a very frightening news. The three thieves caught by Instructor Li last night had taken poison and committed suicide before they were delivered to the master.

Hearing this news, Su Wan was a little shocked, not because of the three people who committed suicide, but because Su Wan never imagined that Qi Ruobing hated herself so much that she even did not hesitate to use dead men from the Prime Minister's Mansion to assassinate herself .

It's just that it's fine, in this way, as long as I'm still standing between Fang Yuanli and Qi Ruobing, the two of them will never want to reconcile as before.If this continues, Fang Yuanli will completely neglect Qi Ruobing one day.

Getting off the bed and sitting in front of the dressing table, Su Wan asked Zhuru to do a very simple waterfall bun for herself, then changed into a light and plain dress, and after breakfast, she went directly to the old lady in Rongshou Hall to say hello.

The old lady had just finished her morning class and was chanting scriptures in the front hall.Su Wan walked in with a smile on her face, and said to the old lady with a smile: "Wan'er pays tribute to grandma, may grandma be prosperous, happy and healthy."

The old lady who was chanting didn't pay attention to it, and just finished reading the scriptures in her mouth.Then she opened her eyes and said to Su Wan with a smile, "Wan'er is here, get up and sit down!"

The maid at the side served Su Wan tea, and the old lady gently twirled the rosary in her hand, and asked, "Wan'er, did another thief break into your courtyard last night?"

Although the old lady doesn't care about the affairs in the Hou's mansion, she is the most honorable person in the Hou's mansion after all, no matter how big or small, someone will naturally tell the old lady.

Su Wan, who had just sat down, quickly got up again, "I'm worried about Grandma Lao. They are just a few petty thieves. They were caught by Coach Li and the others last night, and have already been handed over to my father."

The old lady sitting on the main seat sighed, shook her head and said: "I have been praying for the people in the Marquis Mansion in this hall of honor and longevity all day long, but I don't think you are still in such trouble. My child , your life is a little too thin."

Seeing the loving light in the old lady's eyes, Su Wan couldn't help but feel a little sad. Although she was unlucky, she was blessed. Her father, queen, and queen died at the hands of others, and the emperor's younger brother has never heard from her. She was the only one who was able to come back from the dead. I can't tell whether to cry or laugh.

Su Wan just felt a little sad, and then said to the old lady: "Grandma is right. Wan'er also feels that these days are not peaceful, so she wants to worship Buddha."

Hearing that her granddaughter said she was going to pray to Buddha, the old lady was very happy. She nodded with a smile and said, "Very good. Go to worship more often and drive away all the evil spirits on your body. Go, go, it's a good thing."

Just when Su Wan was about to thank the old lady, she heard the sound of footsteps outside Rongshou hall, and then the lady in formal attire stepped in from outside, with a smile on her face.

When the eldest lady saw that Su Wan was also there, a slight look of surprise flashed across her face, and she said to the old lady on the main seat: "Mother, today is the day for you to pay homage to the Buddha. The daughter-in-law gave you the Everything was delivered."

The old lady smiled and nodded, "I see. Mrs. Zhang, how did the interrogation of the three little thieves go last night? Did you find anything?"

Dare to break ground on the head of the Hou's mansion, these people must have unusual backgrounds, and if they can't interrogate anything last night, I'm afraid they won't be able to interrogate anything in the future.

Sure enough, the Da Furen shook her head and said: "Mother, the three little thieves caught yesterday night had taken poison and committed suicide before they were brought to the Master. There was no time for trial."

Su Wan on the side let out a low exclamation, pretending to be aware of it just now.The old lady who was sitting on the main seat was calm, but said a few words of Amitabha lightly in her mouth.

Then the old lady turned her head and said to Su Wan: "Wan'er, it seems that your calamity is not over, you should go to worship Buddha earlier! Master Wu Nian of Puji Temple has profound Buddhist teachings, you can go to him to ask for a peace talisman belt Protect yourself."

Looking at the old lady's cloudy eyes, Su Wan didn't know the meaning of her words, so she could only secretly remember the name of Master Wunian in her heart, and then said to the old lady: "Wan'er knows. Grandma, mother, Wan'er will leave first gone."

Back in the courtyard, he ordered Zhuru to prepare something, then went straight to Puji Temple.Zhuru was a little worried, her young lady and the eldest lady were in the same situation now, could it be that the eldest lady let go of this good opportunity to make things difficult for the young lady so easily?
Su Wan pursed her lips and smiled, and then said to Zhuru: "The current Hou's Mansion is no longer the previous Hou's Mansion. In the current Hou's Mansion, I can go out whenever I want, and come back when I want to. No one can stop me. Including the eldest lady."

Seeing that the young lady is so confident, although Zhuru doesn't know why, she is also very happy.In the past, the young lady was always bullied by the third young lady, but now the young lady is not only no longer bullied, but even bullied her.My worries are nothing to the young lady.

Zhuru prepared some practical things, helped Su Wan into the carriage, and the two went directly to Puji Temple.There was a heavy fog in the temple today, when Su Wan arrived at the temple, the fog was still there, and the temple on the middle of the mountain was shrouded in clouds and mist, just like a fairyland.

After getting off the carriage, Su Wan came to the main hall with ease, looked at the golden Buddha statue in front of him, and the rows of bright ever-burning lamps on both sides of the main hall, and sighed softly. If you want to speak, tears will flow first.

There was no one else in the hall except Su Wan.After a long time, Su Wan sighed softly, did not worship Buddha or offer incense, but turned and left the hall.

Zhuru outside the door was looking at the surrounding scenery boredly, when she saw Su Wan coming out, she said in surprise: "Miss, you finished worshiping so soon?"

It hasn't been time for a cup of tea since I put down the lady and went in. When I came last time, the lady stayed inside for a full incense stick.Why so fast this time?
Su Wan smiled at Zhuru, and then said to her: "Well, before grandma came, she told me to ask an eminent monk named Master Wu Nian to ask for a peace talisman. Zhuru, do you know this master?"

In the previous life, although Su Wan came to Puji Temple, he just glanced at it and left in a hurry. The masters on the mountain only saw the abbot and the abbot. As for the master Wu Nian, he had never seen it before. heard.

Zhuru nodded and said: "Yes, it is said that Master Wu Nian is an eminent monk who has attained the Tao. He has been traveling around the world as a traveling monk before and only settled down here three years ago. Others say that the master is very effective."

After hearing Zhuru's explanation, Su Wan nodded slightly. It turned out that when the master settled here, it was the time when he was in great trouble. No wonder he didn't know the name of the master.

Ask Zhuru to take him to meet the master Wu Nian, and after a while, he arrives at a Zen room behind Puji Temple, the Zen room is very quiet, there are several green pines in the courtyard, but there is no one in the courtyard, it looks a bit deserted .

Looking at the deserted small courtyard, Su Wan frowned and asked: "Zhuru, is this really the residence of Master Wu Nian?" After getting a positive answer, Su Wan said again: "Then why is it so deserted? Could it be that you are a person with a false name? "

Zhuru didn't know how to explain it to the young lady, she was in a dilemma when she heard someone in the room say: "If your heart is cold, you will feel deserted when you look at everything; if your heart is warm, you will naturally feel the warmth in this courtyard." meaning."

The voice was extremely loud. Although it was answering Su Wan's question, there seemed to be something else in the words.Su Wan's eyes rolled slightly, there was a bit of sarcasm in the words, to have such a profound Dharma, I think this person is Wu Nian.

Su Wan took two steps forward, and said loudly: "Su Wan has met the master. I have heard about the master for a long time, and the Dharma is superb. I wonder if Su Wan is destined to meet the master today?"

Although Wu Nian spoke just now, he didn't greet him.Su Wan knew in her heart that such high-level hermits had always had some eccentricities, so she had better ask first, so as not to be rejected.

Wu Nian laughed and said, "It's fate for you to come today. Since you're here, unless you don't want to see me, why can't you see me?"

Hearing that Wu Nian allowed her to see him, Su Wan asked Zhuru to wait for her outside the courtyard, then walked to the courtyard alone, came to the room where someone had spoken just now, opened the door and entered.

As soon as Su Wan entered the room, she said: "I never thought that the master would have guests. Su Wan is so abrupt, I hope the master will forgive me."

There were two people sitting in the meditation room, one with a high crown and belt, and a narrow-sleeved brocade jacket. He was handsome and extraordinary. He was Huo Jing who had met Su Wan a few times before; With a smile on his face, he must be Master Wu Nian.

Seeing Su Wan come in, Wu Nian also asked Su Wan to sit down, and said with a smile: "It's okay, one person is also enlightenment, two people are also enlightenment, there are many people and few poor monks don't care. What's more, the fate of the two of you They are all extremely weird, and the poor monk happened to read them together."

Hearing Wu Nian's words, Su Wan's heart shuddered.I am reborn, except that I know it in my heart, even Zhuru who follows me day and night, who is deeply trusted by me, doesn't know.Unexpectedly, this monk could see at a glance that he was weird.

However, Su Wan was just stunned for a moment, and then said with a smile: "Master was joking. Su Wan just asked for a peace talisman for today's matter, so what's so weird? Could it be that the master wanted to scare us on purpose so that we can learn from us?" Do you want to get more wealth in your hands?"

If it were an ordinary monk, hearing Su Wan disrespect him so much, he would probably be furious at this moment.But Wu Nian was not angry, and still had a gentle smile on his face, "If Miss is afraid that I will cheat the money, then she will not give it. The poor monk will not force it."

Huo Jing on the side became interested at this time, and asked with a smile: "Master said that the fate of the two of us is weird. As far as I know, this kind of fate is unique. After careful calculation, today is the master's profit. "

Hearing Huo Jing's words, Wu Nian nodded again and again, "Benefactor Huo is absolutely right. It should be the poor monk who gave you money today."

Su Wan saw that the jokes between the two were okay, and knew that the two must be very familiar friends, so she said, "Master, don't be too wordy. Su Wan came here to ask for a peace talisman, and I would like to ask the master to give me one." .”

Master Wu Nian looked at the two of them, then laughed three times, took out two peace talismans from behind him, gave one to Huo Jing and the other to Su Wan, and said in his mouth: "The phoenix is ​​nirvana, and the real dragon is here. The cloud rises, the dragon returns and the phoenix returns!"

After finishing speaking, Wu Nian turned around and lay down on the bed, ignoring the two of them.Huo Jing frowned and looked at the peace amulet in his hand, and put it on casually.He and Wu Nian are old acquaintances, and he often sees his strange behavior, so he doesn't take it seriously.

But Su Wan had never met Wu Nian before, so seeing him act like this, she didn't know what it meant.Then he looked at Wu Nian on the bed, then at the peace talisman in his hand, and finally walked out of the Zen room with a wry smile.
