Poor children

Chapter 234: The princess encounters a strange Taoist priest during a chess game in the temple and only interprets the marriage lotus
一
Lingjiu Temple is filled with cigarette smoke. As the most famous Buddhist resort in China, there is an endless stream of pilgrims here all year round. Along the way up the mountain, Zi Tong actually came back. He couldn't help but look at everything fresh.

"I heard that the old emperor from the previous dynasty became a monk here." Zitong worshiped the Tathagata Buddha in the Main Hall and wandered around the temple after he came out.
"Is that the bad emperor that the master talked about who ruined my family?" Hanako asked.

"The old emperor didn't care about the natural disaster that year, and many people died." Zi Tong sighed.

"It's a blessing that the second master took me back, otherwise I would have died a long time ago. It was all the fault of the old emperor." Hanako was still very angry when she recalled the past.
"There seems to be someone playing chess in the pavilion over there." From a distance, Zitong saw two people sitting in the pavilion, an old man and a young boy, who seemed to be playing chess. His master Heming Jushi's chess skills could be said to be unparalleled in the world, and he used his chess skills to All the information was passed to Zi Tong. Whenever she sees someone playing chess, this girl feels itchy, so she naturally wants to go over and take a look.
A master and a servant went to the front pavilion, and when they got closer, they could see the two people in the pavilion. The old man looked about 60 years old, with a fat body and a round face. There are nine ring scars on it, but he looks like a monk
The other one is a young man, Mr. Pianpian, tall, with a white face and beardless, handsome and handsome, not like a child from an ordinary family
It seemed that the chess game between the two was very tense. The young man had long been at a disadvantage, but he still racked his brains to try to survive.

"Your chess game looks difficult." Zi Tong only glanced at it briefly and understood.
"What's the matter with you?" The young master was already angry because he was trapped in the chess game, and he was even more angry when he heard that Zi Tong had determined his death. But as soon as he said this, he looked up and saw a A beautiful young lady, but he felt embarrassed

"Young master, you can't afford to lose?" Zi Tong was not angry, but instead made fun of him.

Seeing that it was a young lady, the little boy said nothing more, but he could only stare at the chessboard in a daze, unable to think of a way to solve the problem, but he didn't want to admit defeat

Zi Tong quietly picked up a piece and placed it on the chessboard, and saw that the whole board of dead chess came to life immediately, and the two people in the pavilion stared at her with wide eyes.

The monk had already determined the victory, but he didn't expect that there would be someone who could solve the dead game he made. He thought this girl was incredible, and the young master didn't expect that this young lady could be so skilled in chess at such a young age. It was inevitable that she would be defeated. Deeply admired
"Little girl, where did you come from?" the old monk asked her, stroking his beard.
"Of course I'm calling from anywhere." Zi Tong doesn't want people to know her identity, especially in a place like this.

"Your chess skills are so good. Who is your master?" the old monk asked again.

"My master doesn't like others to know his old man's name. Please forgive me for being inconvenient to mention it here." Zitong said again, "Today, the young girl interrupted the chess game abruptly. I will apologize to the two of you first, and the young girl will leave first." "That's it." After Zi Tong said this, he hurriedly left with Hanako without waiting for any reaction from the two of them.

The two wandered around the temple for another half day. They felt bored and planned to go down the mountain. However, halfway up the mountain, they saw a Taoist priest who interpreted the lotus and insisted on pestering her to draw a lotus.
"This Taoist priest, it's not me. My master, master, and uncle are all Taoists. Why do I have to draw a lot from you?" Zi Tong was also impatient. Why was that old Taoist priest? Chasing after her

"This girl, I think you are extraordinary. Since your masters and ancestors are all from the same sect, I will give this lot to you today. Come on, stretch out your hand and take any one." The old Taoist priest delivered the lot bucket to you. In front of Zi Tong
Zi Tong saw that he couldn't shirk it, so he reluctantly reached into the bucket of lottery tickets, took out a lottery ticket and handed it to the old Taoist priest.

"The girl's marriage has arrived," the old Taoist priest laughed

"What kind of marriage?" Zi Tong was still confused. At this moment, he heard a voice above his head behind him, "Why is it you? Are you going back down the mountain?"

Zi Tong looked around, and behind him was the young man playing chess in the pavilion.
"Why are you going down the mountain too?" Zi Tong looked at him. As he stood like this, he looked taller, and she was not even as high as his chest.
"The girl's horse must have been left at the foot of the mountain. Why don't we go down the mountain together?" the young master invited
"It's our way anyway, so let's go together," Zi Tong said

Although they went down the mountain together, the journey felt very long. Both of them were embarrassed and didn't know what to say. Zi Tong also lost some of her usual arrogance, and felt that there was something stuck in her heart.

The young master was even more shy. He only glanced sideways at Zi Tong from time to time, but he didn't know what to say.

It wasn't until the mountain got on the horse that the young master said, "Where does the girl live, why don't you let me take you back?"

"No need." After Zitong said, he felt that he had chosen the wrong words, and hurriedly added, "I have other things to do, and I won't be going home for the time being. Please go ahead, my lord."

The young master looked a little disappointed when he saw Zi Tong leaving. He didn't know where she came from. If he wanted to find her in the future, he didn't know where to look.
Zitong felt even more sad at this moment, because he received a letter from the palace early in the morning, telling her to enter the palace today to meet His Majesty the Emperor, and if she dared not to go, she might be beaten to death by her father

Zi Tong lingered outside the palace for a few more hours. He really had no choice but to go into the palace if he didn't go in. It would be dark, so he gritted his teeth and went into the palace and went to Changping Hall, scolding his father along the way. I thought about what I said over and over again, and the more I thought about it, the bigger my head felt.

When they arrived at the Changping Hall, they didn’t see Tianxing in the main hall. After asking the palace, they found out that Tianxing had just gone to Concubine Yan’s palace for dinner and would not be back tonight.
Zi Tong was overjoyed when he heard this. He never imagined that such a good thing could happen in the world. It happened that his father was not here when he came.

It is true that Tian Xing decided to go to Concubine Yan's palace today, and he also looked at the day he recruited Zi Tong to enter the palace.

"In that case, I will go back first. If the father comes back, you can tell him that I have already come. It's just an unlucky thing. I have to choose another day to pay my respects." Zi Tong said, although his face was tense. It's tight, but my heart is full of joy
The palace officials of Changping Palace all responded one by one and respectfully sent Zi Tong out of the main hall of Changping Palace.

Perhaps by chance, Chunya came out of the side hall just in time, and the two of them bumped into each other.
"Who is this?" Zitong saw that Chunya's figure was fair, but she covered her face tightly, she really couldn't see anything.
"This is Concubine Chun," Jin Feng said. When Chun Ya entered the palace, the third lady specially entrusted her to Jin Feng to take care of her. After the old lady passed away, Jin Feng was almost given away to get married by the second lady, but she didn't. Ken was left by the third lady, and it came in handy this time.
"Concubine Chun? I haven't been back for a long time. I heard that my father has taken in several concubines, and you must be one of them." Zi Tong couldn't see her appearance clearly, and he didn't want to stay in the palace for a long time, and he didn't care about Chun Ya. , just want to leave
