After the powerful minister was reborn, he married the delicate girl back home

Li Jiaorong heard from her husband that there was a nobleman living in "Qinshan Temple". They had to go and meet this nobleman to burn incense this time. No matter whether the nobleman wanted to see them or not, the etiquette must not be broken.

What kind of noble person is he? Li Jiaorong was curious about actually living in a temple, and pestered Gu Xingmo to tell her about that noble man. Gu Xingmo couldn't resist her, so he had to tell everything he knew.

It turned out that the noble lady was the sister of the current Holy One's mother. After the Holy One ascended the throne, she was named Princess Roujia.

The eldest princess Roujia once suffered from a serious illness, which lasted for more than a year. During the period of the eldest princess's illness, no one except the Queen Mother saw her.

After she recovered from the illness, the eldest princess suddenly ran to "Qinshan Temple" and said that she wanted to shave her head, practice Buddhism, and take refuge in my Buddha.

But the eldest princess is a member of the royal family after all, so the abbot did not cut off her hair easily. He only said that her "relationship with the world is over" and allowed her to practice cultivation in the temple with her hair.

And this practice has been practiced for many years.

At first, some women with ulterior motives made excuses to offer incense, but in fact they wanted to look familiar in front of the eldest princess. The eldest princess was so annoyed that she wrote a letter directly to Emperor Yin. Later, the "Qinshan Temple" became the eldest princess. Guards were even posted at the foot of the mountain to guard the place where one person was cultivating, and ordinary people were not allowed to go up.

The eldest princess wanted to pray for the entire Northern Dynasty, hoping that the country would be stable and the people could live and work in peace and contentment. This became a popular story among the people.

After hearing this, Li Jiaorong praised Princess Roujia for being a strange person, but after she finished her praise, she became even more puzzled. Since ordinary people were not allowed to disturb the princess's spiritual practice, wouldn't it be bad for her to go to the temple to burn incense and worship Buddha? Why do the Queen Mother and the Queen have to go to "Qinshan Temple" by themselves?

She didn't understand, she couldn't figure it out, so she turned to ask Gu Xingmo, thinking that if her husband was so smart, he might know!

In fact, Gu Xing had a vague guess in his heart, but it was so ridiculous that he subconsciously thought it was impossible. He could only comfort him: "Because the incense is effective, the Queen Mother and the Empress like you, so they allowed you to go to Qinshan Temple." "Burn incense and pray."

Apart from this reason, there is no other explanation.

Li Jiaorong didn't have much doubt about this explanation, and soon she was happily preparing gifts and things for burning incense.

This time when he went to "Qinshan Temple", Gu Xingmo accompanied Li Jiarong. In his eyes, it was not a shameful thing to accompany his wife to the temple to offer incense. Besides, he could always be with the little girl by his side. Don't worry.

The two of them rode a carriage all the way to the foot of the mountain.

As expected, there were guards guarding the place, but when they heard that the person coming was Gu Xiuzan's wife, they let him go immediately.

The carriage drove slowly again, and Li Jiaorong couldn't hold back her curiosity, so she lifted the curtains, glanced at the guards behind the carriage, and asked doubtfully: "Why didn't they stop us? Aren't they afraid that we were... Bad guy?"

Gu Xingmo sighed and replied: "Maybe someone has given them instructions in advance."

That person is either the Queen Mother or the Queen.

Why do these two people want the little girl to come to "Qinshan Temple" so much? Is it really what I think?

Gu Xingmo glanced at Li Jiarong, no, that was too absurd and impossible. He must have been overthinking it. Maybe the two of them just simply liked the little girl.

The road up the mountain was not easy to walk, the road was full of potholes, and Li Jiaorong's body began to stagger.

Flip it to the left and knock it to the right.

Gu Xingmo saw that he was distressed, so he hugged her into his arms. Feeling the tenderness in his arms, Gu Xingmo suddenly figured out, why should he care so much? As long as she can stay well by his side, the remaining soldiers will come to cover up the water and the earth.

In this way, the two arrived at the temple.

When we arrived at the temple, we first offered incense.

The maid was carrying a copper basin. The copper basin was filled with spring water from the backyard. It was slightly cool to the touch and somewhat comfortable.

After Li Jiaorong washed her hands, she meant to take a bath and burn incense. Then she glanced at Gu Xingmo and wanted to go into the palace alone. Even when they arrived, Gu Xingmo was still worried, so he also scooped water to wash his hands and left. Go in.

After entering the temple, light candles before burning incense.

Then he bowed down to invite incense and burned it. Three sticks formed one column, which means the incense of the three treasures.

Li Jiaorong smiled brightly at a golden statue in the hall and recited what she had just heard from others: "Please pray for the blessings of Buddha and Bodhisattva, so that all demonic obstacles can be eliminated, the body and mind will be healthy and worry-free, and the family will be harmonious and the career will be prosperous."

After kneeling down, Gu Xingmo supported Li Jiaorong, the two of them stood up, and donated a lot of sesame oil money at the door.

There were not many pilgrims in the temple, and not many monks. At least they hadn't seen one since they came in. Although the place was very clean, it always felt deserted.

The little novice sweeping the floor came over with a big broom. When he saw Gu Xingmo and Li Jiaorong, he couldn't hide the surprise in his eyes. He quickly put his hands together, lowered his head slightly, and said softly: "Amitabha, you two How did the donor come up?”

"My husband and I came up from the bottom of the mountain. May I ask, young master, where is Princess Roujia's meditation room?"

Although Gu Xingmo had been here in his previous life, it was already dark at that time and the time had been too long, so he couldn't remember clearly. He could only ask about the young monk in the temple.

The little monk scratched his head and held it in for a long time: "The eldest princess will not see you."

Gu Xingmo knew that he was kindly reminding her, so he smiled lightly and replied: "It doesn't matter if the eldest princess sees us or not, etiquette cannot be broken after all."

Seeing that he couldn't stop them, the young monk pointed to a yard at the back, "That's where the eldest princess does her spiritual cultivation."

Gu Xingmo thanked Li Jiaorong, and asked people to carry the gifts they had brought, and prepared to go home after delivering them. After walking a few steps, the originally clear sky was gradually shrouded in dark clouds, and large shadows gathered above his head. , like it's going to rain.

Li Jiaorong glanced at Gu Xingmo uneasily, as if she didn't expect that the weather would change at a moment's notice.

Seeing this, Gu Xingmo shook her hand reassuringly, "It's okay, I won't be able to get off for a while. Don't worry, just send your things in and I'll wait for you outside the house."

Li Jiaorong nodded and then knocked on the courtyard door.

"I'm coming……"

Soon, the door was pushed open. Li Jiaorong looked at the palace maid standing in the courtyard and said word by word: "I am the wife of Gu Xingmo, an official of the sixth rank of the Hanlin Academy. I am here today to offer incense and come to pay my respects." Princess Roujia, I hope my aunt will inform you."

The palace maid was dumbfounded, as if she didn't expect that she could come in. After she realized what she was doing, she quickly saluted, asked Li Jiarong to wait a moment, and then hurried in to report.

The palace maid hurriedly ran in and knelt down in front of Zhou Yuzhao with a plop, "Princess, there is someone outside the door."

Zhou Yuzhao turned the Buddhist beads on her wrist and asked casually: "Who is here?"

"Back to the princess, she said that she is the wife of Gu Xingmo, a sixth-rank official. She came here today to offer incense. She heard that the eldest princess was here to perform a religious retreat, so she came here to pay her respects."

"No, let her go quickly." Zhou Yuzhao was not interested in the visitor at all and said without raising his head.

The palace maid hesitated for a while, only responded "yes", and then retreated. Cuizhu suddenly called her from the side and said respectfully: "Princess, please go over and have a look first, and ask the lady how she came up." ?”

"Qinshan Temple" has not seen outsiders for a long time. Cuizhu didn't know how they got here, so she wanted to go out and have a look. If they were unreasonable, they would have to pay the price.

Zhou Yuzhao waved her hand, and everything went with her.
