After I was reborn, I became Mrs. Chief Assistant

Chapter 236 Playing Chess
Shi Ling was stunned for a while, but didn't react at all. After a long time, he finally got up and went to pick up the luggage, but soon he found out in despair that he couldn't take it away.

I can't take anything with me.

The gold, silver and jewelry bestowed by the emperor, the silk and satin he bought in Kyoto, and even the golden crown on his head seemed bulky to him.

Seeing him dawdling for a long time, Wen Lu said impatiently: "Hurry up."

Shi Ling glanced at the carriage reluctantly, turned his head and tremblingly said: "Strong man, I... I packed it up."

Wen Lu looked up at him, a trace of surprise flashed in his eyes, and then said: "Let's go. The farther the better, don't go back to Kyoto, and don't go back to Meihai."

Shi Lingcai half-understood what he said, he didn't know where he could go, or how far he needed to go, but he still stumbled away.

Wen Lu stood in the bamboo grove, until he saw Shi Lingcai's figure gradually turned into a black dot, and he turned around and walked back.

He wasn't worried that Shi Ling would return to the capital.

The adults are kind-hearted, so they told him to let him go.If Shi Ling didn't know what to do and wanted to come back, it would be tantamount to asking for his own death, no wonder he was so cruel.

……

It was almost September, and many students from all over Daye hurried to go, because the Zhanglu Academy was about to hold a big exam.

However, Yun Zhuo was very negative, even Qiu Xing couldn't help asking her, did she really not read books?
After all, she once won the first place at the Zhanglu Banquet, and now she is not prepared at all. If she does not get a good grade in the big exam, there will definitely be a lot of gossip.

Yun Zhuo was sitting cross-legged on the couch and eating pastries. Hearing this, she said, "I won't watch it."

The reason why she wanted to go to Zhanglu Academy at the beginning was just for the Zhanglu Banquet. Now that the banquet is over and she has won the top spot as she wished, there is no need to go again.

Although Qiu Xing felt that this was not good, but Yun Zhuo was the master after all, so she didn't dare to say anything more, so she just changed the subject and said: "Today the vegetable farmer sent a basket of lotus roots, girl, do you have any vegetables you want to eat? If so If there is something, the servants here will tell the kitchen to do it."

Yun Zhuo thought for a while and said, "Is it just delivered in the morning? Is it fresh?"

"It's fresh." Qiu Xing said, "Haha! When it was delivered in the morning, it was still covered with a layer of mud. Later, when the servants went to the kitchen to look at it, they had already washed it. The lotus root looked tender and tender, so I wanted to fry it." It should be delicious."

Yun Zhuo said: "In this case, you go to pick up a basket, and let's go to Miaohua Temple."

Although Qiu Xing wondered why she had to bring a basket of lotus roots to Miaohua Temple, she thought of what Hongxiu had said to her before she left, so she didn't ask.She said yes, then turned around and went down.

Yun Zhuo remembered that Jiming liked to eat lotus root in this season, and it happened that the lotus root was crispy, tender and juicy at this time, so he could send it to him.

Qiu Xing quickly picked up the lotus roots in the kitchen, she carried the basket on her shoulders, and came to Wotang Residence, seeing that Yun Zhuo had also packed them up.The two went out together.

Because Yun Zhuo's idea was temporary, it was almost noon when the two arrived at Miaohua Temple, and there was also curling smoke rising from the dining hall in the temple.

Jiming was sitting on the futon and meditating. Seeing her coming, he suddenly felt a headache.After all, Yun Zhuo is a character who doesn't go to the Three Treasures Hall for nothing, but whenever she comes, she must have something to trouble him.

But I don't know where she got the ability to bring things that suit him every time.

Adhering to the calm demeanor that a generation of eminent monks should have, he got up from the futon, put his hands together and came to the door: "Why is Master Yun here?"

"A new basket of lotus roots has arrived in the mansion. I thought that the master would like it, so I brought it to you. I hope the master will not dislike it."

Jiming really likes to eat lotus root, but this season is when lotus root is in short supply. As early as July and August, the steward in charge of purchasing in the mansion of the nobleman in Kyoto has already made an order with the vegetable farmers in the suburbs of Beijing, so it is not available in the temple at this time.

He looked greedily at the fresh and tender lotus root in the bamboo basket, then quickly looked away, and said with a wry smile, "Please take it back, Master Yun."

Before he said the reason, Yun Zhuo had already guessed the reason. She sighed, but she didn't expect that the impression that she would go to the Three Treasures Hall for everything in Jiming's heart had been so deeply ingrained. She explained: "I have nothing to do here this time." I beg you, just accept it, as my thank you for introducing me to Mrs. Wei."

At the beginning, she searched for a candidate in the capital, and finally made a plan to have Master Wei recognize Chun Xue as a righteous daughter.In the end, it was thanks to Jiming that she got to know Mrs. Wei.

Jiming glanced at her, as if he couldn't believe it, and asked again: "Is there really nothing else?"

Yun Zhuo nodded: "There is really nothing else."

After all, Jiming couldn't collect the things and drove them away, so he politely said, "Sponsor Yun must not have had lunch yet, if you don't mind, why don't you have a vegetarian meal in the temple?"

He was already frightened by Yun Zhuokeng, even if he was an eminent monk, he would inevitably be contaminated with some mundane vulgarity at this time.

Who knows that Yun Zhuo doesn't know what politeness is, even though Jiming asked like this, she responded accordingly: "That's fine, then thank you, Master."

Although Miaohua Temple is very prosperous, people usually come to the temple to offer incense, but unless it is the first and fifteenth day of the Lunar New Year, Miaohua Temple does not invite guests to eat vegetarian meals.

The corner of Jiming's mouth twitched, but he finally restrained himself from falling out with Yun Zhuo on the spot.

Although he really wanted to ask Yun Zhuo, it's fine for you to bring wine over and ask me to do things for you, why now even if you can't find anything for me to help, you still have to knock on Miaohua Temple for a meal?
"Just right!" Jiming glanced at the chessboard that hadn't been put away, and said, "Since you are a student of Mu Guiliu, you must be good at chess. I'm thinking about a game of chess recently, so come and talk with me." How many rounds?"

The smile on Yun Zhuo's lips could hardly be suppressed, not only is her chess skill good, she even beat him once!

She nodded and followed: "Of course."

This is the first time for Qiu Xing to know that the girl from her family is also acquainted with the famous eminent monk Master Jiming. I don't know why Master Jiming doesn't seem to like her very much?

Since the two of them wanted to play chess, she naturally wanted to be by the side.But after several fights, she knew why Master Jiming didn't like her so much.

Many times, he was almost on the verge of losing. Although he managed to turn the tide and save the situation in the end, for such a character, even a tie would be considered a shameful thing, right?

At the end of the chess game, Jiming narrowly won by a piece.

Yun Zhuo hadn't experienced such a hearty feeling for a long time. She looked at the chess game and exclaimed: "Master chess is superb, I am not as good as you."

"But next time I will definitely win it back." She said again.
