Chapter 11

Yuan Jin didn't care how long he had chosen the lady of Dingguo Mansion, so he would probably talk to Gu Heng about his marriage.

After all, it is still unknown whether she can choose, and she has many more headaches than this. However, the other sisters couldn't calm down and discussed Gu Heng excitedly for a long time.

"You have heard that the Lord of Danyang County liked what Marquis Wei Yong liked so much that he forced his family to marry him. Unfortunately, Marquis Wei Yong still didn't like her."

"I also heard that Gu Heng had a cousin who loved him very much, so the county magistrate couldn't tolerate her. He actually pushed her down from the second floor when he was listening to a play..."

Yuan Jin was a little overwhelmed by the audience.

Gu Heng's cousin clearly fell downstairs when he was listening to the opera. What does it have to do with her?

Is she so bored?

She didn't want to listen any longer. Fortunately, after the vegetarian meal, the temple sent a master to pass on the message and said that she could go in.

"I think Prince Jing has left." The old lady wanted to go to Chongshan Temple to catch a feast, so she called Old Lady Xue to accompany her.

Old Mrs. Xue was just about to go and eat incense to ensure that the matter was safe and smooth, so she brought several granddaughters into the side door.

The Chongshan Temple is indeed very grand. There are nearly a thousand pavilions, pavilions, corridors and verandas, and there are six main halls on the middle line. Among them, Thousand-Eyed Thousand-Handed Guanyin in the Great Compassion Hall is the most grand, three feet high, covered with gold foil, and shining with golden light. According to the explanation of Buddhist scriptures, Thousand-Handed Thousand-Eyed Guanyin is one of the "six disguised forms" of Guanyin, which can see through all the misfortunes and blessings in the world. The signatures I asked here are said to be the most effective in Taiyuan Prefecture.

Old Mrs. Xue first knelt on the cushion, and when she came, she asked all the granddaughters to ask for a fortune and bad fortune.

The masters of Zhike handed the sign to several wives.

Yuan Jin took the sign and knelt down and closed her eyes. Although she didn't believe in Buddhism, she would not prevent her from asking for a sign.

The sign shaking, and a sign fell to the ground.

She put down the sign and picked it up. She saw that the verse said: I woke up from the treasure in my dream and said that the southern mountain was just a hoe. The destiny of heaven should follow the will of heaven, and the creation and foolingness cannot be stopped.

The signs of several ladies have been released. Yuan Zhen and Yuan Shan have got a good sign, and they are very happy. Only Yuan Yu has got a sign, and she is a little unhappy. Yuan Zhu didn't throw it out at all, but she is young, so no one pays attention to her. She snatched Yuan Jin's sign and looked at her, turning left and right, and she was a little curious: "Hey, Sister Fourth. Your sign is unique. Other signs say something about wealth and marriage, but your sign is confused, making people wonder what it means!"

After hearing this, Old Mrs. Xue also came and took Yuan Jin's signature. She exclaimed softly and handed it to a monk next to her who explained the signature: "Master, what does this sentence mean?"

The monk was wearing an old red cassock, very thin and not very good-looking. His only eyes revealed a kind of tranquility that was born in the world. He clasped his hands and recited the Buddha's name, took the sign and looked at it, and smiled and said, "This lady is afraid she will be rich and powerful."

Xue Yuanyu next to him laughed: "Master, don't read it wrong. She is not as rich as a life, but her life is almost the same!"

The old lady of Dingguo Duke smiled and said nothing. Old Mrs. Xue glared at Xue Yuanyu, saying that this granddaughter really had no one to keep a door in her mouth!

The monk smiled and said, "The fate is not important. My wife has purple energy and her fate intersects with the purple-Wei Star, which is extremely expensive." As soon as the monk finished speaking, the rest of the people felt uncomfortable, saying that this common house was said to be noble in fate, so where do they have the legitimate descendants?

What else is Ziweixing mentioned? Could it be that Xue Yuanjin still has the life of the empress? She is a polite family, and her father's official sesame seeds are bigger. It is good to be a juren's wife!

Yuan Jin's expression was unpredictable.

Ziwei Star, the Lord of Stars, and the Emperor's Stars.

Could it be that she had a fate with Zi Weixing because of raising Zhu Xun? He is now the crown prince, and it is legitimate to become an emperor.

But at this moment, an old monk wearing a cassock came in and first put aside the pilgrims before saying to the master of the signature: "Why are you hiding here again? You didn't sweep the backyard when you got up in the morning. Now the abbot is angry. Go quickly, don't unbroken the signature here!"

The monk heard that the abbot was angry and hurriedly said goodbye and left.

The old monk said to them, "Don't be surprised. He was just in charge of cleaning the backyard and shouldn't have signed the sign here. If he said something was missing, please take care of it."

Xue Yuanshan smiled: "It turned out to be a sweeping monk, but we misunderstood! The fourth sister must not take Yuan Yu's words just now to heart."

Xue Yuanshan advised her to secretly mock her, just to tell her not to dream of having a wealthy life.

How could Yuan Jin care about this? The two of the second wife only want to ask for a bargain, which is not afraid. They are not as high as Xue Yuanzhen, so Xue Yuanzhen is too lazy to pay attention to these younger sisters who are not as good as her. Yuan Jin also smiled: "Sister Yuan Yu has always been like this. I guess it is because she is still young and her second aunt has not taught her much, so it doesn't matter!"

Yuanshan's face turned bad when she heard it. Didn't she say that her sister was uneducated?

She found that the fourth sister became more and more eloquent, and she couldn't even ask her for a word, so she hummed and stopped talking.

Old Mrs. Xue watched from the side, her face turned cold several times. Fortunately, the old lady of Dingguo did not say anything, so she suppressed her attack.

After asking for a visa, the old lady wanted to go with Mrs. Xue to listen to a monk's lecture on the "Lingyun Sutra", but how could the girls sit and listen to the boring lectures. Mrs. Xue asked several girls to be accompanied by the mother-in-law, first go to the main halls to burn incense one by one, and finally return to the other courtyard to take a carriage.

Only Yuan Jin had no nanny to serve her. When she came, she only followed a maid Liu'er, but Yuan Jin was also left in the other courtyard to take care of Wen Yu. She and Yuan Zhu went to the Main Hall to burn incense.

On the way, Yuanzhu's nanny talked about interesting stories about Chongshan Temple: "...If you say that the real interesting thing in this temple is the big bell built during the Zhengde period. I heard that it is about a meter high. If you ring the bell on weekdays, you can hear it in half of the city!"

When Yuanzhu heard this, she wanted to go and see a look. "What's the point of going to burn incense? Let's go and see this clock. I've never seen such a big clock before!"

Her nanny was a little embarrassed: "Fifth Lady, let's go back after scent. The bell tower is still a bit far away. It's not too late!"

Yuanzhu came to pull Yuanjin again: "Sister Four, let's go and have a look!"

Yuan Jin was upset by the matter he had just asked for a visa, so he didn't feel like going to see Zhong, and just wanted to go back quickly. "The clock tower is far away, and you will be tired after you walk." Yuan Jin knew a child like Yuan Zhu very well.

Yuanzhu was unwilling to give up and said naughtyly: "I must go and see it! If you don't go, just wait for me here!"

She was afraid that the nanny would catch her and ran very fast. There were many corridors along the way, and there were no people in just a few steps.

Her nanny was afraid of losing her, so she even called the fifth lady to chase her.

Yuan Jin sighed and was shocked to follow a child! He could only follow him.

After just turning a few times, the two of them disappeared.

Yuan Jin stood at the fork in the corridor, and at a glance, there were all the eaves of mountains and mountains. I didn't know where they were going. Under the eaves were carvings of various gods and Buddhas, painted faces, and one hundred and eight arhats were either happy or angry, or extremely evil or extremely angry, which made her a little dizzy and took a step back.

"Is the little donor unable to find anyone?" A voice suddenly came from behind. Yuan Jin was shocked and looked back.

It turned out to be the monk in the palace who was wearing an old brown robe and very thin. He looked at her with a smile on his face.

"Master, where did those two go?" Yuan Jin also clasped his hands and asked him.

"If the little donor finds someone, you can find it there." The monk pointed to her a corridor.

Yuan Jin thanked him and went in the direction he pointed. He vaguely heard him seemingly chanting the Buddha's name behind his back, but when she looked back, the monk was gone.

She walked along the corridor pointed by the monk, but she couldn't find Yuanzhu and her nanny at all.

It was indeed not too early at this time. The sun shone obliquely across the corridor columns and cast a large area of ​​light and shadow on the ground, the vermilion walls, and the exquisite wood carvings under the corridors all dimly from the dusk, as hazy as if they were in the painting.

The mountains in the distance are quiet, the tired birds return to their nests, and the thick bells and drums ring long.

Yuan Jin was unwilling to appreciate such a scenery. She didn't know where she was. There were temple corridors around her. She walked around the corridor, but she kept circling around the corridor, and no one was seen. Yuan Jin was a little anxious. After all, it was getting dark and she was alone. She wanted to walk back along the same path, but after walking a few times, she didn't even know where she came from.

Unexpectedly, when she walked to the corner, she suddenly bumped into someone! It seemed that she bumped into something hard object being held by the visitor. Yuan Jin's forehead was hit and hurt!

Yuan Jin was knocked back two steps, in pain and anxious, and forgot his current identity for a moment, and scolded: "Who are you? Don't you have eyes when you walk!"

The man who bumped into Yuan Jin was a man. He just held a lot of books and was knocked all over the floor by Yuan Jin.

The man raised his head. He had thick eyebrows like a sword, his nose was high, about twenty-seven or twenty-eight years old. Hearing Yuan Jin's words, he smiled and asked, "Aren't you hitting me?"

"It was clearly the book you hugged hit me!" Yuan Jin saw that he didn't admit it, and covered his forehead and said, "You are not careful when you are walking on the road with so many things in your arms. The corners of the book are too sharp and they are denied when hitting my forehead!"

Yuan Jin was actually hurt by the pain and took out his style as a county lord. She looked at the person. He was wearing an ordinary right-sided green cotton robe, without any ornaments, and was strong and slender, and quite tall. She was only tall at his chest. He smiled, but his eyes were calm and deep.

Since he was dressed simply, no one followed him. He should be an ordinary lay Buddhist living in the temple.

"You little girl are not old, but she is very aggressive." He didn't seem to care, picked up his book and said, "You go quickly, it's getting late."

After saying that, he was about to leave.

Seeing that he was about to leave, Yuan Jin grabbed his sleeve: "Stop! Do you want to leave if you hit someone?"

The man glanced at her hand holding her sleeve and pulled the corner of her mouth, and seemed to feel a little incredible: "What do you want?"

After all, I was going to ask someone else's question, Yuan Jin's voice became a little vague, "I originally wanted to go to Main Hall, but I didn't find the way here... Do you know how to get there?"

It turned out that I was lost and didn't know how to go, but I still dared to be so arrogant.

The man raised his hand and pointed her in the direction: "Just pass from here and walk another corridor."

"Forget it this time... Be careful next time you walk, don't hit someone else!" Yuan Jin said, and the man responded with a smile.

Yuan Jin walked towards the direction he pointed, and was rubbing his forehead that was still suffering from pain.

It's just a half-grown girl, she's very brave, and she even wants to teach him a lesson.

The man smiled and turned around after watching the girl disappear.

Two people knelt down quietly in front of him and said respectfully: "Your Highness."

"Yes." Zhu Qian walked forward and asked lightly, "How could someone break in?"

"Your Highness forgives your crime, and your subordinates are negligent for a moment." said the kneeling man, "I wanted to shoot him..."

His Highness Jing comes to Chongshan Temple to worship Buddha every year to pray for Empress Dowager Xiaoding, who raised him. He wanted to set off for Datong in the morning, but he stayed behind temporarily. Since Chongshan Temple had been unblocked, His Highness did not ask him to seal it up again, which caused negligence in defense.

"Just a little girl, she wouldn't be such a ruthless move." Zhu Qian said lightly. Even though the little girl accidentally broke into his residence, his bodyguard almost shot her when the collision just now. In order to ensure his safety, this was almost a necessary control measure.

But he made a secret gesture to stop his subordinate from taking action and spared the little girl's life. She still grabbed him and refused to forgive her, but she didn't know that if he hadn't stopped her, she would have died long ago.

Zhu Qi walked straight into the hall and said, "Take the Datong Geometric Map for me."
