For the next two days, He Mansion was uncharacteristically quiet.

Perhaps it was Shi Kong's words last time that stimulated He Xiu to some extent. He is very well behaved now, he did not show his face in front of Shi Kong, and did not cause He Xuanling any trouble. Buddhist scriptures.

After a few days of digging around in a decent manner, it can be regarded as hard work, but don't say anything about being completely enlightened, on the contrary, I feel panicked, and I get a headache when I look at those densely packed scriptures.

If this went on like this, He Xiu felt that he might be going crazy.

Well, don't bother.

"Qingyu," He Xiu closed the "Lotus Sutra" in his hand, and he forced himself to call out, "Don't take a nap, go out for a walk with me."

A head slowly poked out from behind the curtain, rubbed his eyes and said: "Master, you can think about it, I have been suffocating for the past two days." The big black grape-like eyes are very cute.

He Xiu saw that although he was young, he was rarely clever and had excellent hearing, so he stayed by his side.

"The monk who came here a few days ago, how is it now?"

He Xiu leaned on the couch, looked at Qing Yu in the bronze mirror who was neatly binding his hair, and asked casually.

Qing Yu pursed his lips when he heard the words: "Well, the master will worship that monk as if it were a real Buddha...Young master will not come to take a look if he hasn't left his room for two days."

"Oh?"

"That's not it," Qing Yu said angrily as he fixed his bun with a jade hairpin, "Master placed that monk in the Summer Palace, and also ordered the idlers not to disturb him at all... It is said that the food and clothing, decoration, etc. The furnishings are all in accordance with the regulations of the Royal Zen Temple."

He Xiu smiled: "It's strange to say, he has always had a high vision, why is he so interested in this monk Shikong?"

"Young master, don't tell me, this monk seems to be quite young." Qing Yu approached him at this time, lowered his voice and said mysteriously: "Do you still remember the ninth son of the Holy One today? He escaped into Buddhism five years ago , the one who bestowed the title of 'Zen Master Huizhen'."

In the middle of the conversation, he changed into an old-fashioned look and sighed decently: "Hey, I don't know why I can't think about it so much. It is clearly rumored that she is both talented and beautiful, and she was born with a vision from heaven, and she was favored by the Holy One."

He Xiu glanced at him, "You know what, keep talking."

"After the Ninth Prince entered Buddhism, he was different from the other bald donkeys. He devoted himself to studying Buddhism, and he has achieved profound attainments in just a few years. He not only compiled Buddhist lectures by himself, but also presided over the opening of the altar to preach. When teaching the Dharma, The audience is very large, often reaching more than 1 people, and even those famous monks and masters come one after another."

The corner of He Xiu's lips curled up, and he understood what he meant: "Why, you want to say that Shi Kong is the Ninth Prince?"

Qing Yu nodded: "I overheard the master's private conversation with an adult from the capital. The man said that Shi Kong and the Nine Princes who opened the altar to teach the Fa are quite similar."

As soon as he finished speaking, before he had time to claim credit, He Xiu grabbed his ear and raised it.

"Hey, hey, master, it hurts, it hurts..."

He Xiu said angrily: "Is it possible to have good ears? Don't listen to what you shouldn't! How many times this month? The last time Aunt Liu stole a man, and the last time the master asked the doctor to stop him. The next best thing is that he was not found out, if he is caught straight, the family law service is still light!"

Qing Yu lowered his head, aggrieved and silent.

"If you are bored in the mansion, I have something for you to do right now."

Qing Yu's eyes lit up: "Young master, tell me."

"Mingqi was sent to Zuixiaolou by me. Go to him and find out, where are the people who were with that monk before going?"

"Okay, I'll do it right now."

Turning around and wanting to run, He Xiu stretched out his hand to grab him, angry and funny: "What's the hurry, it's still early, I can't delay you playing around outside, first go out for a walk with me."

Qing Yu immediately flinched like a defeated rooster, followed He Xiu out the door with his head drooping.

After leaving the door, it was a different scene. The sun had just dispelled the thick fog and illuminated the sky and the earth.It's a pity that the snow fell hard last night, the frost on the ground would not melt for a while, He Xiu was afraid of the cold, the cold air outside seemed to freeze his internal organs, so the two of them only wandered around the Merlin for a while, then Want to leave.

"Master, isn't that Aunt Liu?"

With sharp eyes, Qing Yu pointed at the slender figure on the Meilin path in the distance with his chubby little finger, and whispered.

He Xiu raised his eyes and looked over, but the figure was too far away, and disappeared quickly before he could see clearly.

...That direction is opposite to the West Wing where Aunt Liu lives, and it looks like...

"Lingering Garden!" Qing Yu yelled, "Passing through the plum grove, there is Lingering Garden over there. Not long after the master left this morning, this Aunt Liu became restless, even a monk would not let her go! "

He Xiu suddenly had a strange feeling in his heart, he lowered his eyes slightly and said, "With that monk's appearance, let alone Aunt Liu, I'm afraid even a nun would be tempted."

Qing Yu pursed his lips, disapproving, "Isn't he just a monk, where can I see better if I shave my head? In my opinion, I can't compare to the young master."

After He Xiu heard this, he immediately became amused, and stretched out his hand to pinch Qing Yu's nose: "You little flatterer."

He frowned again and said, "Let's go, let's go and watch too. It's a trivial matter for Aunt Liu to make a joke, but if this Shi Kong is really the Ninth Prince, He Fu might cause trouble."

Speaking of Aunt Liu, she is also a strange person.

It was presented to He Xuanling by a Yangzhou salt merchant three years ago. It is said to be a first-class lean horse. He Xuanling soon won the favor, and was helped by a maid to become an aunt.

Besides, after the original owner of the body drugged his father so badly, Aunt Liu became even more restless, and secretly fell in love with some strong and long-term workers in the mansion.The original owner bumped into it once, probably because he thought the green hat on his father's head looked quite right, so he pretended not to see it.That Aunt Liu gradually became more courageous, and her words and deeds became more and more coquettish.

……

A shallow and sarcastic smile floated on He Xiu's lips, and he followed unhurriedly.

Aunt Liu was wearing a pleated skirt of hibiscus, auspicious clouds and hundreds of flowers, and she was covered with a light pink snow fox fur coat.He Xiu didn't make a sound, grabbed Qingyu's toes, and turned into the garden with lightness kung fu.

This Lingering Garden is built in imitation of a water town in the south of the Yangtze River. There are clear springs, rockery and green bamboos everywhere, wind pavilions and moon pavilions, which belong to each other.The magnificent and spacious hall is hidden in it, adding a bit of poetic and artistic conception.

"few……"

Just as Qing Yu was about to speak, He Xiu raised his hand to cover his mouth, and made a silent gesture to him.

Then he also imitated his young master, using the rockery in the courtyard to cover his figure, and looked towards the hall.At a glance, I saw Aunt Liu who was kneeling on the ground, pretending to worship the Buddha statue.

That golden Buddha statue is naturally also one of He Xuanling's collections, and now in order to please Shi Kong, he has also been removed from his own small treasury and placed on the table in a decent manner.There are neat Buddhist scriptures on the left and right sides of the Buddha statue, a delicate lotus lantern is placed in front, and symmetrical and neat incense burners, streamers, purified water, flowers and fruits, and some vegetarian food are placed around it.

After praying, the maid helped Aunt Liu to stand up, turned around and looked at Shi Kong standing behind her.

Aunt Liu was ruined by the original owner's medicine because of her appearance, and she has not healed repeatedly, so she always covers her face with a long veil, but she has a little bit of a taste of wanting to hug a pipa and half cover her face.She is a first-class "skinny horse", so she naturally knows how to adorn herself. She wears a horse bun on her head and inserts a treasure hairpin obliquely, and a purple jade pendant. .

He Xiu watched her walk towards Shikong with cold eyes, and the disgust in his heart was even worse than before.

Being far away, I couldn't hear what they said clearly, but I saw that Aunt Liu suddenly became unstable and fell straight into Shi Kong's arms.

He Xiu suffocated his breath, and his heart sank.

But Shi Kong was not in a hurry, he held Aunt Liu's bright wrist with one hand, and Aunt Liu stabilized her figure, and stood up again in a slightly unnatural way, the bright red agate ornaments on her wrist set off the bone-cut body. Especially fine and smooth.

Aunt Liu failed to make a plan, and she didn't know what she said to Shi Kong.

Shi Kong nodded.

Then Aunt Liu stretched out her plain hand, intending to take off the veil on her face, but she remembered something behind her ear and said something again.

Shi Kong didn't make a sound, but the maid next to Aunt Liu was blessed, bowed her head and left the hall, and turned around as if to close the door for the two of them.

How could He Xiu bear it, he immediately called Qing Yu to come out from behind the rockery, and walked quickly towards the hall.

"I don't know why Master has something important to discuss with my aunt, but you have to close the door to thank the guests." He Xiu suppressed his anger and kicked open the door that was about to close, making the maid tremble with fright.

He didn't even look at Aunt Liu when it was over, but just stared at Shikong, "This lonely man and widow, I'm afraid it's not suitable."

Shikong recited a sentence of Buddha.

Heh, this attitude is really not taking the initiative, not refusing, not being responsible.He Xiu laughed angrily, feeling a little baffled himself.

"Young master, this concubine heard that Master Shikong was good at medicine, and wanted to ask for medicine, but this concubine was ugly and ashamed to show it to the public, so..."

"You know you're ugly and you still show your face, get out!"

Seeing that the situation was not good, Aunt Liu made excuses.After all, He Xiu is a legitimate son, and his status is comparable to that of He Xuanling, so Aunt Liu still dare not be presumptuous in front of him.Unexpectedly, being scolded by pointing his nose like this, he was so angry that his liver hurt, but he couldn't get angry, so he could only grit his teeth and make a note in his heart, and walked away in despair with the maid.

After scolding him away, He Xiu felt a lot more relieved, and called Qing Yu.

No one answered, He Xiu raised his voice, "Qing Yu!"

Still no one answered.

Turning around, he realized that the servant behind him was looking at Shi Kong straightly, as if he was infatuated.

When He Xiu went up, a chestnut hit him on the forehead.

Qing Yu came back to his senses with an ouch, looked at He Xiu embarrassingly, and dodged his eyes.

"That's it! Who said just now..." He Xiu stopped talking halfway, and suddenly stopped, and changed his words, "Go and watch outside, I have something to say to him."

"Oh."

Qing Yu complied, and looked back at Shi Kong reluctantly for several times before closing the door again.
