The concubine is enchanting: the favorite princess

Chapter 511
While speaking, Fengyao and Xiaoqing had been led out of the mountain gate behind.Going straight up a small path leading to the halfway up the mountain, after walking for nearly a stick of incense, I saw a small Buddhist hall.There are three huts on the left and right, and the doors and windows are all closed. It seems that no one lives there yet.

The master said: "This is the Buddhist hall prepared for the almsgiver in the temple, but he has not received the almsgiver in the past year. If the two of you stay, you need to tidy up yourself."

Feng Yao didn't look too much, then nodded and said: "Feng Yao came to practice, so it's better to practice hard. I also practiced in Zhujing Nunnery for a few months before, and I can bear the coldness on the mountain."

The master said: "That's the best." Then he turned his head and pointed to the little novice who followed all the way: "Xiuyuan comes here every three days and will bring food and Buddhist scriptures. If the benefactor has something to do, just tell Xiuyuan .”

Feng Yao hurriedly put his palms together, and saluted the little novice named Xiu Yuan.The little novice returned the salute very politely, but he never said a word, he just lowered his head and narrowed his eyes, never looking cheaply.

This can be regarded as the end of the explanation, and the master took Xiu Yuan back.Only Fengyao and Xiaoqing were left in the Buddhist hall, and Xiaoqing was still holding a volume of Yizhi in her arms.

Xiaoqing saw that there was no one else around, so she took the scroll and said, "Master, what should I do with this?"

Feng Yao took it and unfolded it, glanced at it casually, and rolled it back.Then I looked around in the Buddhist hall, and I saw a Buddhist niche on the right hand side, which is the place where incense candles and offerings are placed on weekdays.He pointed and said, "Just put it there, it's not considered negligence."

Xiaoqing was slightly surprised, but thinking about it, there is no ancestral hall dedicated to the will in this temple.Simply according to Feng Yao's intention, put Yi Zhi on it.Turning back and asking again: "Master, I want to ask, what should we do about the things mentioned in the edict?"

When the father-in-law announced the decree before, Feng Yao looked listless, Xiaoqing thought Feng Yao hadn't heard the content of the decree, so she asked now.

Feng Yao laughed and said: "I can never forget it by ear at the age of five, and I can recite a "Avatamsaka Sutra" after only one listening, which won the favor of Grandma Huang. The meaning of this decree is not profound. How can I not understand the principles of the university? Isn’t it just that I have to copy ten scriptures with my fingertips? I just copy it.”

Xiaoqing was startled when she heard it, and quickly took Feng Yao's hands and said: "Master, ten fingers connect to the heart. The Empress Dowager asked you to copy the scriptures with your fingertips. If you copy ten scriptures, even if you don't exhaust your efforts , but also a great loss of vitality. How can you not see through this vicious intention?"

Feng Yao smiled: "Since I've come here, I want to devote my heart to the Buddha and practice painstakingly. Not to mention copying scriptures with blood from my fingertips, even if I'm really asked to copy scriptures with blood from my heart, I'm willing."

"Master! This is absolutely impossible." Xiao Qing simply held onto Feng Yao's hand, as if Feng Yao was about to prick her finger and let blood flow.

Feng Yao shook his head and said: "Even if I really use my blood to copy the scriptures, then my hard work can't be wasted. Naturally, I have a way to get the best of both worlds, so that they all come to nothing. To lose, but to gain."

Xiaoqing couldn't understand, and didn't dare to think about it.As long as he thinks that Feng Yao is really going to use blood to copy scriptures, his heart will tremble with pain.But seeing Feng Yao's resolute eyes, knowing that she has made up her mind, she couldn't help saying: "Since the master is determined to do this, then Xiaoqing should do the bloodletting for the master. I don't believe it, but what can the empress dowager tell after reading a scripture?" One is the master's blood, which one is Xiaoqing's blood? I'm afraid she won't be able to tell the difference even if it's pig's blood or dog's blood."

When Feng Yao heard this, he quickly patted Xiaoqing's mouth, acting aggressively, and scolded: "You slave is so unruly, how can you be bullied in front of gods and Buddhas? Quickly kneel down and apologize to the Buddha."

Xiao Qing was taken aback for a moment, but seeing Feng Yao's sincere eyes, she knew that Feng Yao was sincere to the Buddha and would not allow herself to talk nonsense.Busily knelt down and kowtowed to the Bodhisattva in the Buddhist hall to apologize.

After three bows and nine kowtows, Feng Yao dragged Xiao Qing out.After going out, he sighed and said: "Although I am not a monk, I knew when I was practicing in Zhujing Nunnery that the world can be deceived, but gods and Buddhas cannot be deceived. In fact, the Buddha is in the heart, and the one who deceives is only my conscience. Since the queen mother has this will, I will do it. But I also said, I will not let this blood flow in vain. These ten scriptures are of great use to me."

Xiao Qing naturally didn't understand what Feng Yao meant by the great use, but since Feng Yao said it, she must have believed it very much.

Letting go of the scripture matter for now, Xiao Qing realized that these rooms really needed to be tidied up.Except that the Buddhist hall was tidy and clean, the three huts on the left and right were covered with a thin layer of dust.The house closest to the mountain wall was still against the tide, and the corner of the house on the north side had already grown a layer of mildew.

Feng Yao also saw the situation in the house, and said to Xiaoqing: "We only live in the two rooms in Chaoyang, and don't worry about it here."

Xiaoqing agreed, and went to the well behind the Buddhist hall to fetch water, ready to clean up.

Feng Yao rolled up his sleeves and wanted to help, but was pushed away by Xiaoqing: "My good master, how can I let you do this kind of rough work. I am an active person, you let me idle, I feel sick all over."

Feng Yao smiled, looked at the dust in the room and the layers of cobwebs in the corners, and knew that he really couldn't learn it for a while, so he said: "Then I'll go and boil some water, drinking water and eating later Useful."

Xiaoqing moved her mouth, as if she wanted to persuade her.But looking at Feng Yao's sparkling eyes, he gave up.But in the end he still said: "I'd better go to the kitchen to light the fire. Master, just watch and wait for the water to boil."

Feng Yao laughed "puchi", but he didn't rush to do it.He just followed Xiaoqing to the kitchen.When Xiaoqing lit the fire, she was sitting on a small bench beside her, holding her chin and watching carefully.

As soon as Xiaoqing raised her head, she saw Fengyao's concentration, and she couldn't help wondering, "Why does master look at me like this?"

"I'm not looking at you, I'm just learning how to make a fire." Feng Yao recalled the incident of making pancakes in the cavalry camp the day before, and couldn't help laughing: "Sometimes it's best to grow on yourself, although you may not be able to use it if you learn it. But it’s better than nothing when you use it.”

Xiaoqing shook her head, indicating that she didn't quite understand.Feng Yao said seriously: "If you have someone you like in the future, you will understand. You will think about lighting a fire for him, cooking for him, doing laundry for him, and making quilts for him. But I don't know how to do these things."

Xiao Qing still shook her head, but this time she said two words, which made Feng Yao want to slap her.Xiaoqing said, "I will."
