Chapter 387

Master Yuanjing is a highly respected monk, Xiao Lingyi had heard of him when she was the princess of Jun Wuchen, and seeing him now, she respected him very much, and looked at Master Yuanjing with a serious expression.

After entering the temple, Master Yuanjing looked back at them and said with a pleasant face, "The benefactors must have been exhausted all the way, and it is almost noon. How about the benefactors, why don't you go to the main hall to offer incense after the fasting meal first? The meditation room is ready."

In the eyes of monks, there is no distinction between high and low, so even though several people are of extraordinary status, Master Yuanjing still regards them as benefactors.

This kind of behavior fell into the eyes of Song Qinghuan, and he became more and more respectful to Master Yuanjing, and sighed in his heart, no wonder Tianning Temple has stood upright for several dynasties without falling down, such an attitude that is neither vulgar nor humble, is the true quality that Buddhist disciples should have sex.

Tianning Temple often has high-ranking officials and their families come to offer incense, so there are many meditation rooms for female guests in the temple.Shen Chuhan sent someone to notify him two days ago, so the meditation room in the temple has been cleaned and ready.

Song Qinghuan looked at Xiao Lingyi, "What does your mother think?"

Xiao Lingyi looked up at the rising sun in the sky, nodded and said, "That's fine." Then, he smiled at Master Yuanjing, "Then I will trouble Master."

Master Yuanjing saluted together eleven times, "The benefactor is very polite."

As he spoke, he looked at an older monk beside him, and ordered, "Enlightenment, go and instruct the kitchen to prepare a vegetarian meal for the benefactors."

The monastery monk named Wuwu responded, saluted and retreated.

Master Yuanjing looked at another round-faced monk again, "It's empty, you take a few benefactors to the meditation room to rest for a while."

After the eleven ceremonies of Konghe, he looked at Song Qinghuan and the others and said, "Several benefactors, please come with the poor monk."

After resigning from Master Yuanjing, everyone followed Kong and went to the meditation room.

Although the terrain of Xuyu Mountain is not high, there are no other mountains around it, so the view is quite good.Walking along the way, you can see the wheat fields at the foot of the mountain in the distance, dotted with scattered farm houses, and the fragrance of trees wafts from the nose, which does not have the fun of the countryside.

The meditation room is located in the backyard of Tianning Temple, and the women's residence is set up separately, so there is no need to worry about being disturbed.

Liao Kong led a person to several meditation rooms standing side by side, turned his head and bowed to them, "Several benefactors, the meditation room has arrived, please rest here for a while, and the fasting meal will be delivered later."

"Thank you little master." Xiao Lingyi agreed and watched him leave.

Xiao Lingyi assigned the rooms to everyone, and the accompanying maid went in first to tidy up.Several people sat and rested on the stone chairs in the courtyard.

Several camellia trees were planted in the courtyard, and now when the flowers are in bloom, the courtyard is full of fragrance.

Xiao Lingyi breathed a sigh of relief, complex streamers flickered in his eyes.

Over the past few days, she has looked the same on the surface, but she has been struggling in her heart.

As early as when she was in the underground palace, she had the desire to die. If Jun Wuyin hadn't threatened her with Shen Chuhan's life, she would not have survived so easily.

It's just that she didn't expect that in this life, she would still see the sun again.

After being rescued from the underground palace by Shen Chuhan, she saw Song Qinghuan, saw Youyou, and knew that Shen Chuhan was living a happy life now, and the only worry she could not let go of was finally gone.In the dead of night, the idea of ​​following Jun Wuchen came up again.

Although Shen Chuhan has restored her identity now, the fact that she served the kings of two dynasties will not be erased, and the guilt for Jun Wuchen is still in her heart.So these days, I have been condemned by my conscience.

Originally, he endured the humiliation and succumbed to Jun Wuyin, just for the sake of the Xiao family and the life of the child in his womb.Now, Jun Wuyin is dead, and Shen Chuhan has grown up and has a happy family.In this world, she has nothing to miss, so these days, she misses Jun Wuchen even more.

It's just that she still has concerns.

Shen Chuhan managed to rescue her from the underground palace, and Song Qinghuan and Jun Xi always treated her as their biological mother. If she really passed away like this, they would be very sad.Xiao Lingyi didn't want to hurt them, so she hesitated all the time.

Especially now that Song Qinghuan was pregnant again, if she really passed away, if Song Qinghuan was too sad and became pregnant, she would not feel at ease even under Jiuquan.

Because of these thoughts, she has been restless and distracted these days, and it happened that Junwan proposed to go to Tianning Temple to relax, and she immediately agreed.

The Buddhist Pure Land may really have the effect of cleansing people's souls.

Sure enough, as soon as I stepped into the thousand-year-old temple, surrounded by lush green trees, and listened to the Sanskrit sounds faintly in my ears, my impetuous heart suddenly calmed down a lot.Looking at Song Qinghuan and Junxi, who were smiling and charming beside them, the balance in my heart gradually tilted towards them.

The dead are gone, so are the living.

Shen Chuhan was already paranoid, if she really passed away, she didn't know what he would do.There are also Song Qinghuan and Junxi, she treats them like a few, and doesn't want to make them sad.

Along the way, the idea of ​​seeking death in my heart was gradually dispelled.

She let out a long breath of turbidity in her heart, and suppressed the light in her eyes, so as not to be seen by others.

After she settled her mind, she raised her eyes, with a warm smile still on her face.Thinking of the fetus in Song Qinghuan's womb, he couldn't help but raise his eyebrows slightly, and looked at her with a smile, "How is Huan'er feeling recently?" While speaking, his gentle eyes fell on her abdomen.

Song Qinghuan followed her gaze, stroked her abdomen with both hands, and there was a glimmer of light on the corners of her eyes and brows, "The little guy is just like her sister, she is very well-behaved, and she didn't cause trouble for me."

"That's good." Xiao Lingyi nodded, and said with concern, "Hasn't the first three months passed?"

"Not yet." Song Qinghuan shook his head.

"Then you have to be careful, you can't be sloppy in the first three months."

Song Qinghuan pursed her lips and smiled, "I will be careful, mother and concubine don't worry."

Jun Wan sat in a corner with her head bowed, her face was submissive, but her heart was burning like a fire, which made her almost lose her mind.

From the day she learned that Song Qinghuan was pregnant again, the flame of jealousy in her heart became more and more intense.

Watching her beloved marry other women and have children, but she can't express any strange emotions, this feeling makes her almost suffocate.

But now, every word Xiao Lingyi and Song Qinghuan said was like an extremely sharp knife, mercilessly piercing into her heart, causing her to be dripping with blood.

"Yunhe is not young." While talking, Xiao Lingyi suddenly turned to Jun Wan, and spoke kindly.

As far as Xiao Lingyi was concerned, although she was dissatisfied with Jun Wan's actions just now, considering that she had lived with him for several years, it was not good to neglect her too much.

What's more, when I think about it carefully, I feel that this child has a pitiful life, and his mind is inevitably more sensitive. As long as he is not a treacherous person, these small tricks, she will pass by with one eye closed. That's why the topic was shifted to her.

Hearing Xiao Lingyi's voice, Jun Wan hurriedly withdrew her thoughts, concealed the anger in her eyes, raised her head and smiled obediently at Xiao Lingyi, as if a little embarrassed.

Xiao Lingyi glanced at her meaningfully, "Shouldn't it be time to think about the important things in my life?"

Jun Wan's cheeks flushed, and she lowered her head again, looking like she didn't know what to say, but there was a flash of vigilance in her eyes.

Given a choice, she would rather die alone than marry someone she doesn't like.

In the past, when Jun Wuji was still alive, because he knew that he was not favored, Jun Wan was not so worried.As long as there is no need for a marriage, Jun Wuyin will not think of himself at all.

But things are different today.

She doesn't like Song Qinghuan, and in the same way, she can feel that Song Qinghuan doesn't like herself.Even, her intuition told her that Song Qinghuan might already know her feelings for Shen Chuhan.Then, in order to cut off his own thoughts, Song Qinghuan may recruit a concubine for himself at any time and send him out of the palace.

Therefore, during this period of time, she has been very vigilant in her words and deeds, so as not to let Song Qinghuan catch anything.Unexpectedly, Xiao Lingyi also brought up this matter today.

Clenching her five fingers, suppressing the uneasiness in her heart, she showed a timid expression, "Empress Dowager, Junwan still...doesn't want to marry yet."

"You are the eldest princess, so what if you don't want to marry someone?" Xiao Lingyi looked at Junwan with a pleasing expression, but doubts appeared in her eyes.

She has seen countless people, so she can tell at a glance that Jun Wan is really against getting married.

It is said that the girl Huaichun, a girl of Jun Wan's age, would be so indifferent or even resist when talking about her own marriage?Could it be... is there any hidden secret in it?
Thinking about it this way, there was a hint of inquiry in Jun Wan's gaze.

Counting it, the time Jun Wan lived with her was only two years, and she was still young at that time, and my impression of her was entirely based on her when she was young.Xiao Lingyi has no idea what happened to her and what kind of person she has grown up to over the years.

When she came to look for her two days ago, Xiao Lingyi was very enthusiastic towards her because of her past affection.

But today, Xiao Lingyi saw some clues.

The girl Jun Wan doesn't seem to be as safe and secure as she appears on the surface.

But, what exactly is she asking for?

Jun Wan saw that Xiao Lingyi didn't intend to let go of this topic, so he could only bite his lips, and looked at Xiao Lingyi timidly, "I...I don't have anyone I like yet."

"Really?" Xiao Lingyi was suspicious, and looked at her calmly, then turned his gaze.

It just so happened that the rooms were all ready at this time, and each maid came out and invited everyone to enter.

Song Qinghuan watched Xiao Lingyi enter the room before Fang stepped into the room.

"Lan Xi." Sitting down on the chair and taking a sip of tea, Xiao Lingyi looked at Lan Xi who was in front of her, and said thoughtfully, "Go and call Ning Ping Chang Di Ji over, just say that I have something to say to her .”

"Yes." Lan Xi agreed and walked out quickly.

Soon, footsteps sounded outside the door.

"Mother, are you looking for me?" Jun Xi's figure appeared at the door of the room.

Xiao Lingyi waved at her, signaling her to come in and sit down.

Jun Xi entered the room, saluted, and sat down beside Xiao Lingyi, "Does the Empress have any orders?"

Xiao Lingyi nodded, "I want to ask you something."

"Mother, please speak."

"Just now at the gate of Changdi Ji's Mansion, what did you say?" Xiao Lingyi looked at her with a somewhat serious expression.

Jun Xi was startled, and soon realized what Xiao Lingyi was asking, and a look of embarrassment appeared on his face, "Mother, I'm not sure whether I should talk about that matter."

"What's wrong?" Xiao Lingyi frowned.

Jun Xi took a deep breath.

She brought up this topic just now, mainly to cooperate with Song Qinghuan, but she didn't expect Xiao Lingyi to hear it in her heart.

"The incident you mentioned is related to Huaner and Yunhe?"

Junxi nodded.

Xiao Lingyi looked at her, "Xi'er, I want to know."

Jun Xi sighed, thinking that this matter was not a secret, even if he didn't tell it, Xiao Lingyi could find out by himself as long as he wanted to, so he said, "At that time, Ah Huan had just returned to Lindu, and she was full of worries. Worry, but it happened to coincide with domestic turmoil in Yu, Emperor Yu was injured by an assassin, and his life and death were unknown. In order to prevent A Huan from being too sad when he found out, Brother Huang specially ordered the news to be blocked. But whether it was intentional or not, Yun and After going to Prince Han's mansion, he revealed this matter."

Xiao Lingyi frowned fiercely.

Jun Xi continued, "A Huan was caught off guard when he heard the news, and his fetus became gassy, ​​so that... he gave birth prematurely and gave birth to You You." After a pause, "Fortunately, A Huan and You You are safe, otherwise, brother Huang With the level of nervousness towards A Huan, Yun He is probably long gone."

Shen Chuhan is Xiao Lingyi's son, Xiao Lingyi naturally knows better than others what kind of temperament he is, so Jun Xi didn't hide the latter sentence.

"There is such a thing!" After hearing this, Xiao Lingyi was obviously surprised, frowning, with a thoughtful expression.

Jun Xi looked up at Xiao Lingyi, hesitant to speak.

"What did Xi'er want to say?" Xiao Lingyi asked.

"I shouldn't have said that." Jun Xi hesitated for a moment before opening his mouth, "It's just... I'm afraid that my mother's kindness will be used by others, so I still want to remind you. Jun Wan, she may not be as good as you. As innocent and harmless as it appears on the surface."

Jun Xi didn't know Jun Wan's thoughts about Shen Chuhan.But she also vaguely noticed Jun Wan's inexplicable hostility towards Song Qinghuan. She knew that Xiao Lingyi had raised Jun Wan, and she was afraid that she would be blinded by her old love, so she said this.

Xiao Lingyi's long eyelashes trembled.

Even someone as indifferent as Jun Xi could see her thoughts. It seemed that Jun Wan was no longer the timid little girl she used to be.

With a long sigh, he nodded and said, "I understand. No matter when, I will put Huan'er's interests first."

Jun Xi smiled, "Then...does the queen mother have any other orders?"

Xiao Lingyi shook her head, "No more, you should go back to your room and rest for a while."

Jun Xi agreed, took his leave and left.

After a few people rested for a while, the monk brought over the prepared fast meal.

After the fast meal, a group of people walked to the Daxiong Hall under the guidance of the monks.

Stepping into the main hall, what greets your eyes is a big Buddha, sitting in the hall, as high as three feet, resplendent in gold and jade.There are eighteen arhats cast in gold and bronze all around the Buddha. Some are sitting on a deer, thinking, or clarifying Yuyu, raising their hands to celebrate, or riding an elephant, with eyes in all directions, with different expressions and lifelike expressions.

There are no other people in the temple, and the Daxiong Hall is more open and quiet. There are monks chanting scriptures in the hall, and the Sanskrit sounds can be heard in the ears, making people's minds calm down, as if they have been washed.

Seeing them entering, the monk stopped chanting, and the monk who had just called Kong Kong stepped forward, bowed to them, and handed over the burning incense in his hand.

Xiao Lingyi took it, knelt down on the futon in front of the Buddha statue, held three sticks of incense, and bowed to the huge Buddha statue in front of him, with solemn eyes and a pious expression.

Although Song Qinghuan didn't believe in Buddhism, but in such an environment, he couldn't help being infected. He knelt down and worshiped the Buddha, praying a few words silently in his heart.I hope that God will open his eyes and not let Shen Chuhan suffer any more pain.

After the incense was burnt, Master Yuanjing spoke scriptures for a few more people.The Dharma is profound, and even people like Song Qinghuan who don't believe in gods and Buddhas have learned a lot from it.

After listening to Master Yuanjing's lecture, they took a short rest. As it was getting late and Tianning Temple was still some distance away from the imperial palace, they decided to go down the mountain and leave.

After asking Lan Xi to donate incense money to Tianning Temple, and bid farewell to Master Yuanjing, the group boarded the carriage again and drove down the mountain.

Although the trip to Tianning Temple was short this time, everyone had a lot of feelings. Compared with the previous time, everyone's mood has changed.Therefore, no one made a sound for a while, and in the process of descending the mountain, only the rolling sound of the wheels could be heard.

Seeing that he was almost halfway up the mountain, Song Qinghuan suddenly smelled an unusual smell.

Before he could react, the carriage stopped suddenly, and the bodies of several people couldn't control their bodies and fell forward.
