Hello Chang’an

Chapter 28 The Tower in the Temple

"Is Ning Ning really forgetting things?" Mrs. Wang, the wine-offering lady, grabbed the girl's hand, her eyes full of heartache: "What on earth did the doctor say? Have you asked the palace medical officer to come and see her?"

"Yesterday, in addition to the ones from the house, we also invited three other doctors. They all only prescribed some prescriptions for recuperating and calming the nerves." Chang Kuo said, "When I come back from outside today, I will send someone to the palace to invite you with my sign." A medical officer came to take a look."

Qiao Jijiu looked at him: "Sui Ning looks like this now, why do you want to go out and work?"

Chang Suining thought it was about going to see Zhou Ding, so he said, "Don't worry, except that I can't remember anything, everything else is fine."

Chang Kuo said: "I just want to take Suining out to Dayun Temple -"

Chang Suining was stunned: "Dayun Temple?"

Isn’t it the top of the week?

Chang Kuo gave her a "you have enough time" look.

"Okay..." Mrs. Wang nodded and thought, "Go and pay homage. Ning Ning's disease is rare. Perhaps due to this shock, evil spirits entered the body and came back with something unclean... Go to the temple to exorcise Once the evil spirit is driven away, maybe it will be better.”

Chang Suining: "..."

Just give her name.

"Ignorance." Qiao Jijiu glanced at his wife, snorted, and said, "But it's time to go. As the abbot, Wu Jue can't leave the temple. If he sees that Suining is safe, he will feel at ease." ”

—Wujue?

—Abbot?

Chang Suining blinked.

Did he really become a monk?

"How about I go there with Ning Ning?" Qiao Yubai, a young man, asked Chang Sui Ning warmly.

Thinking of Zhou Ding's incident, Chang Suining subconsciously wanted to decline, but before she had to say anything, Chang Sui'an already said, "Don't you have to go to the Imperial College today?"

Qiao Yubai was about to say "no problem" when Chang Kuo waved his hand and said, "Why is there any need to make such a big show of things? Sui Ning's affairs should not be publicized. It's just going out, don't be too ostentatious."

Hearing the words "not suitable for publicity", I looked at the Qiao family in front of me, and then thought about Yu Zeng who was also informed, Wu Jue, who was now the abbot of Dayun Temple, and even Wei Shuyi, as well as those who were probably also aware of it. Cui Jing revealed her identity...Chang Sui Ning - I can't say that it is not publicized enough, I can only say that it has attracted much attention.

But there is nothing we can do about it, there are so many fathers named Ah Li.

"It makes sense." Qiao Jijiu nodded, and told Chang Suining: "Sui Ning can rest in peace for a while, and when he feels better, he will go find Third Dad, and then Third Dad will take you fishing." …”

Wang immediately said angrily: "What kind of fish are you fishing for? I know how to fish all day long, but I think you look like a fish!"

Although it's been a long time, Chang Sui Ning is no stranger to this.

Here at Lao Chang - there is nothing that cannot be solved with practice.

With Mr. Joe - there's nothing a fishing trip can't fix.

"What do you know, woman? Fishing is the best way to calm the mind and nourish the mind. When the mind is calm, the mind will be clear, and the crux in the brain will naturally be cured without medicine."

"Don't even think about applying this fallacy to Ning Ning!" Mrs. Wang was furious after hearing this: "...Yesterday I told Mianmian that after a hundred years, you don't need to be buried in the ancestral graves. It's better to just bury you in the Wei River. !”

Qiao Jijiu was not angry, and hummed nonchalantly: "That's very good. I just want to be with the fish, which is better than sleeping underground with a woman like you."

"The fish may not want to see you." Mrs. Wang also snorted: "Who cares what you think, I just saw that you have done too many sins, and I want you to go to the river to make amends, so as not to harm your descendants!"

Qiao Jijiu stared at him. Seeing that the two were about to quarrel, Chang Sui Ning hurriedly asked: "By the way, why don't you see Mianmian... sister here?"

The Qiao family has a son and a daughter. Qiao Yubai is younger than Changsui'an, while Qiao Yumian is slightly older than Ah Li - and since Ah Li calls everyone his father equally, he must also call Qiao Yumian his sister.

"Mianmian is inconvenient to go out." Qiao Yubai, who had a headache from the quarrel between her father and mother, hurriedly answered, "Because she has been suffering from wind and cold in the past few days, she was afraid that she would be sick again, so she asked me to send her greetings. Sister Ningning.”

After all, Mianmian and Ningning were competing, one was weak, and the other was infected with the cold. Whenever they met, they would become two.

It is inconvenient to go out—what do you mean?

Chang Suining noticed the first half of the young man's sentence, thought about it for a moment, and did not rush to ask further questions. "Okay, okay, let's all go our separate ways." Chang Kuo, who especially couldn't hear the quarrel between the Qiao family and his wife, began to drive people away, "It's getting late, it's time to go out."

Before leaving, Mrs. Wang handed a food box to Xi'er and told her: "...take these snacks with you and remember to remind Ning Ning to eat some on the way."

Hearing the emphasis on the word "reminder" in her tone, Chang Sui Ning couldn't help but feel that it was good to have a broken brain. Not only could he "speak and act weird" anytime and anywhere he wanted, but there were also people who had to worry about food, clothing, housing and transportation.

On the carriage to Dayun Temple, Xi'er did as he was told, reminding Chang Sui Ning to eat snacks from time to time.

Although he had breakfast in the morning, he was probably tired from standing still and a little hungry. Chang Suining picked up a jade dew dumpling and tasted it. It was indeed delicious.

Bian asked casually: "When was this Dayun Temple built?"

She had never heard of such a temple in the capital.

Xi'er replied: "It was built by the saint when he ascended the throne. It must have been twelve years ago."

Twelve years ago?

Chang Sui Ning inevitably paid special attention to this point in time - she died that year, and it turned out that was the year the Ming Dynasty ascended the throne and proclaimed herself emperor.

Sure enough, from the beginning to the end, she was just paving the way for Minghou - using her dignity, flesh and blood, and even her life to help her ascend to the supreme position.

This wasn't the first day she knew this.

She knew it as early as fifteen years ago.

Chang Suining lowered his head and took another bite of the dumpling.

"Girl, is it delicious?" Xi'er asked from the side.

"tasty."

Xi'er showed a big smile.

The little maid has a round face and two dimples when she smiles, which is really cute and beautiful.

Chang Sui Ning also dispelled the dullness in his heart, opened the car curtain, and looked out at the spring scenery outside the car.

Dayun Temple arrived soon.

It is worthy of being built by someone specially ordered when the new emperor ascended the throne. The temple here is extremely grand and solemn, and at a glance, the carriages, horses and soft sedans parked not far from the temple are either rich or noble. They are probably only for the royal family and officials. open.

Chang Kuo was accustomed to traveling with a sword. Before entering the temple, he took off his sword and handed it to his entourage before leading his brother and sister inside.

Chang Suining followed Chang Kuo and went to the main hall to burn incense first. Chang Kuo asked people to add money for incense oil and was generous.

After offering the incense, Chang Kuo strode out of the hall and asked the monks outside the hall: "Where is Wu Jueren? Does he not know that I am coming?"

Wujue is the abbot of Dayun Temple. Even the disciples of the clan will call him master when they meet him. If someone calls him by his title directly, the monks will think it is very rude, but if it were the person in front of him, it would be very reasonable.

All the monks in the temple knew that General Chang and the abbot were old friends.

Before entering Buddhism, the presiding master and General Chang were under the same command of the former prince. General Chang was the deputy general, and the presiding master was a military advisor.

"Amitabha." The monk said at this time: "The abbot and the abbot were discussing Buddhism with a benefactor. He has not left the quiet room since last night. He does not know that the regular benefactor is here."

"Why is Buddhism so mysterious that I can't finish talking about it all night long?" Chang Kuo wondered for a moment and said, "Okay, I'll just go find him."

The monks performed Buddhist rituals and watched him off.

"What is this place?" Chang Suining asked casually as he passed a high tower on the way to the abbot's quiet room.

It is not uncommon to build pagodas in large temples. She asked this question because she noticed something strange.

Thank you everyone, I got 100 monthly tickets yesterday as I wished, hahaha~

In the new January, I wish everyone good luck and good health.
