Chapter 19 Encounter in Jingming Temple 1
The noisy crowd calmed down in an instant. As soon as the woman heard this, she immediately wiped her tears: "It's not easy for me to be an orphan and a widow. How can you bully us like this? I'm afraid this girl is with this little thief."
Everyone looked at Xia Mengning, who was talking. The latter just smiled and turned to the man standing in the middle, a little proud.
"I'm not with this man, I'm just a passer-by, but if you wrong a good person like this, I'm afraid you can't sit idly by."
After a pause, Xia Mengning said loudly, "Then let me ask you, you said that you came to the capital to marry. What kind of marriage did you vote for? Also, the child in your arms was obviously asleep just now. Why would he cry as soon as you speak? Since you knew that something had happened, you didn't go to the government, but you sat here and wanted to To make things bigger, I think that although you are wearing simple clothes, the brocade embroidered shoes decorated with Dongzhu should not be cheap, right?
After saying this, someone in the crowd immediately saw the shoes exposed under the woman's skirt. "Oh, my God, really, her shoes are really not cheap."
Xia Mengning smiled and said, "If you come to the marriage and hold the child as you said, the situation should not be very good. It is reasonable to calm down as soon as possible when you encounter this kind of thing, but you have to make a big deal. I listen to your accent. It should be a local in the capital. Do you want me to call you to go to the official? Report to the magistrate, let him redress your grievances? By the way, it's easy to find out where you came here to get married.
The woman was a little guilty. She held the child and looked timidly at the man standing in the middle. Xia Mengning saw it and knew it. She said to Zhulian beside her, "Let's go."
Suddenly, someone in the crowd said, "Hua? Isn't that man the sister-in-law of the Wang family in the east of the city? It's really not like changing clothes.
With this, everyone began to speculate. When the woman saw the man in the middle nodding to her, she covered her face and hurriedly left with the child in her arms.
Xia Mengning had already got into the carriage, and the crowd quickly dispersed. Zhulian raised the curtain to look, and whispered to Xia Mengning, "That man hasn't left yet." Xia Mengning looked outside and happened to see the man's smiling expression.
Do you really play tricks on people like monkeys? Xia Mengning thought that this person's mind was not so dull.
The carriage drove smoothly to the foot of the mountain of Jingming Temple. Xia Mengning got off the carriage. What she could see was the cyan peak. Zhulian hesitated, "Miss, this mountain road is not easy to walk. Let's hire a soft sedan chair."
Xia Mengning looked at the people on both sides. Some of the ladies of large families chose to take a soft sedan chair to go up the mountain. After thinking about it, Xia Mengning shook her head, "Nothing, praying for blessings must be sincere. What is the mountain road? Let's go up on foot."
After saying that, he took the lead. Zhulian and Xin's mother also hurriedly followed behind when they saw this.
Jingming Temple is a royal temple. In order to facilitate people to go up the mountain to kneel down and pray for blessings, the court has already sent people to widen and build the mountain road. In addition, the distance itself is not very far. Xia Mengning and his party came to Jingming Temple with almost only one incense.
When you look up, you can see the plaque hanging on it. The three words of Jingming Temple are flowing, and the pen is sharp but soft. Xia Mengning praises slightly, which is a rare good word.
Entering the temple, there were several people standing sparsely in the yard. Xia Mengning walked into the hall. The huge golden Buddha statue was placed in the center of the hall. The sandalwood and solemn atmosphere gave the whole hall a sense of majesty and solemnity.
Kneeling on the futon in front of her, Xia Mengning closed her eyes and her heart was calm. At this moment, a slightly old voice came, "Donor, put down your obsession, and you will be happy."
Xia Mengning opened her eyes and saw an old monk in a yellow coat standing beside her. At present, she just stood up slowly and naturally smoothed the folds on her clothes with her hands. "Master Yun regret said, why is the obsession? Why is it easy to put it down?"
Yun regret looked at her a few times and said with a smile, "The donor is the fate of Jin Gui, but if you can't let go of all kinds of things in your previous life in your heart, I'm afraid it will be difficult to escape disaster."
Xia Mengning nod, but changed the topic, "Master Yun regret is polite. Today, I'm just here to pray for my grandmother. By the way, I will return my wish to the Buddha. In a few days, it will be my grandmother's birthday. I want to ask the master for a copy of the Buddhist scriptures. May the master give up his love."
Yun Hui nodded, "Why not? The benefactor is the daughter of the Prime Minister's mansion. My grandmother once donated silver for the construction of the temple for our temple. This is a small busyness. It's better to wait in the later Zen room.
Xia Mengning knew that Master Yun Hui was good at divination and knew that his origin was not uncommon, so she followed him to the meditation room in the backyard.
When he came to the meditation room in the backyard, Master Yun Hui smiled and said, "The benefactor is here for a moment. The old man will go and copy the Buddhist scriptures."
Xia Mengning nod, "There is an old master."
After Yun Hui left, Xia Mengning sat on the small stool by the table and looked at the surrounding decorations. When she raised her eyes, she inadvertently saw a Guanyin statue hanging on the wall. The memories of her previous life rolled over. At that time, she married Changsun Mo and took good care of her every day. He wanted a son, so he invited a son to send her. Yin returned home, knelt down day by day, and finally gave birth to Wuer, but in the end...
Xia Mengning walked in front of the Guanyin statue and knelt down slowly. Her long eyelashes kept trembling. Finally, two lines of tears rolled down. Wuer, I'm sorry for you. I don't have the ability to protect you, but I brought you to this world and made you suffer so much.
Outside the window, two men stood there, and one of them said, "Prince Mo, what do you think of this woman?"
Changsun Mo's sharp eyes locked the woman kneeling on the ground in the room. He only felt as if he was a little sad, and he didn't even know why.
"The son is joking. It's just a common girl in the prime minister's mansion. If you want to marry back, you can't be a side concubine." Changsun Yun didn't think so. The phoenix's eyes narrowed, and the folding fan in his hand shook slightly. A white brocade robe set off his face as warm as jade, like a fairy.
He looked at the woman kneeling on the ground and remembered that he visited the Prime Minister's Mansion at night that day. He wanted to hide in the dark to watch the bustle. Who knew that the woman actually saw from death. When he hadn't reacted, he had saved her from the front of the pillar. Looking at her eyes, he was calm and indifferent. Changsun Yun touched his face, which was difficult. Do you mean to look ordinary? When I came to my senses, I found that something was wrong on that day. When I saved her, I clearly felt that her body was extremely stiff. It seemed that it had been sealed. Changsun Yun suddenly laughed. It turned out that his hero was too much to save beauty. He had already prepared. Thinking of this, Changsun Yun couldn't I'm not a little curious. Why does such a concubine in the Prime Minister's Mansion know so much? Is she hidden? Now when he saw her kneeling on the ground, his helpless sadness was obvious. He actually had a desire to protect her. Changsun Yun pinched the palm of his hand, as if he wanted to restrain his mood.
