Twin Brocade

Chapter 148
"Even if we all die, it will still exist."

"The only thing that can affect it and change it is the wind, the rain, and the unfathomable power of nature. The wind and rain will erode the mountain, the thunder and lightning will split the trees on the mountain, and the wildfire will bring disaster."

"But when it's all over, it's still it, standing still."

These words, like a bolt of lightning, split the fog that shrouded Fang Jinshu's heart.She muttered to herself: "So, no matter how the external environment changes, as long as you stick to your heart, will you be fearless?"

With a compassionate face, Jing Chen proclaimed a Buddha's name, "Amitabha, little benefactor, you are enlightened."

As long as she can remember, she has followed her master to study Buddhism, and finally took over the position of the presiding officer of Jingyi Temple because of her superb attainments.She could tell that Fang Jinshu was no ordinary little girl, behind her, something happened that even she couldn't see through.

But Fodu has a predestined person, and she has no intention of pursuing Fang Jinshu's secrets, and she is dedicated to helping her to do good.

"Stay true to your heart and give merit wherever you go. Shuyin, I see that your future road is not smooth, but remember not to go astray for any reason."

Fang Jinshu clasped his hands together, and said reverently, "Shuyin remembers the teachings of the teacher." If there were not too many worldly things lingering around her, she would even want to convert to Buddhism at this moment.

Spring goes, and summer solstice.

Princess Jingan and Jingle went down the mountain one after another.

Master Jingchen presided over the return ceremony for Jinglai, and both the Ministry of Rites and Zongzheng Temple sent officials to watch the ceremony.Taking this opportunity, Fang Shuyu came to visit her daughter again, and was relieved to see that she was all well.

Before leaving, Princess Jing'an told her earnestly that when she returned home, she must ask Fang Fei to tell her anything.

With the two princesses gone, there are only a few concubines left in the nunnery, and the days become more and more dull.

Fang Jinshu discovered that the coming and going of the princess did not have any impact on the people in the nunnery.Jingyi Nunnery seems to have a characteristic of immobility like a mountain. Changes in the outside world will not cast any influence on the nunnery.

He comes, let him come; he goes, let him go.

It's as if the water has passed without a trace, and after a few ripples, the years in the mountains are as usual.

This kind of Jingyi Nunnery, which coincides with the meaning of Zen, is the real pure place of Buddhism.

Fang Jinshu also practiced martial arts in the morning, morning and evening classes, and chanted scriptures before the spirit of the heroic empress dowager every morning. This was a compulsory homework.In addition, I went to the mountains with Huiyin and others to collect herbs and mushrooms, and went to hot springs with the nuns several times.

With Huiyin here, the embarrassment of being accidentally broken into the hot spring will naturally not happen again.The hunters in the mountains saw it from a distance and avoided the hot springs.They often move in the mountains and know the movements of the nuns.

When the first autumn rain came, Fang Jinshu couldn't help feeling homesick.

She lived a carefree life in the nunnery, but the closer she was to going home, the more she missed her relatives and friends.

It's been almost a year, how are they doing?
Did my mother visit the famous doctor of Su's family in Jiangnan? Is the elder sister's marriage confirmed?

Has grandma been bullied by her second uncle and grandmother? The two concubines in the second room will have their marriage settled...

Fang Jinshu thought about everyone in the family next to each other. These things cannot be clearly written even in thick letters.Only when I go home will I understand.

In golden autumn and October, the air is filled with the breath of harvest.

In the farmland at the foot of the mountain, farmers are racing against time to harvest the autumn harvest.Taking advantage of such good weather, harvested grains, hulled them and dried them in the sun, paid the rent and taxes, and the rest can still live a good year.

Such a good year cannot be let down.

A line of guards of honor came out of the palace, guarded by a group of martial arts soldiers, and the prince rode ahead with a decree in hand.Following the order of the queen in the palace, they went to Jingyi Nunnery to pick up Fang Jinshu and return to Beijing to pay the order.

Fang Jinshu entered the nunnery to chant sutras for the heroic empress dowager, and got the empress' approval.But for the most distinguished couple in Quangaomang, it is impossible to pay attention to such trivial matters.

Before the beginning of autumn, Fang Mu took Fang Shuyu to Prince Duan's residence with a heavy gift.

Within a few days, Zongzheng Temple took the booklet and went to the palace.It has been a full year since the youngest daughter of Yan Fang's family is pure, filial and filial, praying for the heroes and martyrs, the empress dowager.Such a soft and graceful woman can be encouraged and rewarded as a model of the boudoir, and bestowed with the emperor's grace.

The gifts from the Fang family were not given in vain, and Prince Duan reciprocated, which not only successfully attracted the attention of the empress, but also gilded Fang Jinshu's reputation.

Princess Jing'an went to the palace, and said that in the Jingyi nunnery, a junior was very suitable for her.After Emperor Qinglong inquired, he found out that it was Fang Jinshu who was encouraged by Zongzheng Temple's excerpts.

Emperor Qinglong knew his aunt's temperament, and he never praised someone easily.Seeing that his aunt liked her, and that Fang Jinshu was his favorite granddaughter of the Fang family, he issued a decree through Empress Cao's hand, announcing her to return to Beijing.

A group of people came to the foot of the mountain, and the prince walked in front with the imperial decree in one hand and the robe in the other.On this day last year, he was the one who sent Fang Jinshu up the mountain with his own hands, and this year he was the one who came to welcome him back.

In just one year, his attitude has become much more respectful.While climbing the mountain, he thought to himself: This girl from the Fang family is really lucky!This trip to the nunnery actually made Princess Jing'an speak for her.

Recalling the extraordinaryness of Fang Jinshu when he saw Fang Jinshu when he went up the mountain last year, he dared not underestimate him even more.

Fang Jinshu had received the letter from his father a long time ago, and he knew that if there were no accidents, he would return to Beijing on time.So Fangfei packed her luggage, said goodbye to the concubines, and went to Jinghe to sit there for half a day.

Jinghe entrusted Fang Jinshu with Han Ruyan's hiding place in Beijing and her contact information.She is optimistic about Fang Jinshu, but she will not only pin her hopes on her. To deal with Concubine Zheng, she has her own ideas.

Now, you might as well make a good relationship first, maybe you can use it sometime.

Knowing that she was going to leave, Master Jingchen said too much and allowed the nuns to rest for half a day.The nuns who had always been friends with Fang Jinshu in the nunnery came to see each other off one after another.

They don't have precious gifts, but they have a sincere heart.Yuanyin held Fang Jinshu's hand tearfully, and sobbed, "If you leave, I'll be the youngest again."

Fang Fei teased her and said, "How could it be? Xia Ri's masters just accepted two new young disciples into the nunnery, who are much younger than you."

Yuanyin stomped her feet and said, "What's the matter? In this yard, I'm still the youngest."

Her pure mind made Fang Jinshu laugh, and coaxed, "I'll bring you some delicious food when I return to Beijing. The sweet-scented osmanthus cake in this season is the sweetest. There is a time-honored brand on Dingdingmen Street, and their home is counted in the entire capital." Best done. Want to eat?"

As soon as she heard the food, Yuanyin immediately forgot about parting, looked at Fang Jinshu with bright eyes, and said, "Don't forget about Shuyin."
