Chapter 139 The rain is coming
Feng Lisheng and Peter didn't take her words to heart.
Not long after, the road was cleared, and Peter left with his **** in good spirits.
Shen Mingjiao was a little worried, "He won't be arrested as a different kind?"
The main reason is that they are a group of people who are very good-looking, but they don't understand the language.
Feng Lisheng didn't care: "I'm not a woman, what danger can I encounter?"
Shen Mingjiao: "Who said that a good-looking man is dangerous outside, okay?"
After the two chatted for a while, Shen Mingjiao was going to go to Huguo Temple.
Feng Lisheng looked at her suspiciously: "Are you going to worship Buddha?"
In my impression, my princess doesn’t believe in Buddhism!
Shen Mingjiao shrugged helplessly: "The death day of the Empress Dowager is coming soon! So we royal family mbers are going to Huguo Temple to fast and pray for the Empress Dowager."
Feng Lisheng frowned: "Why is it so early? Isn't the mother's death day still more than a month away?"
"You don't know? Because the year is good this year, and it's the empress dowager's taboo, so the Ministry of Rites proposed to make a big deal and start doing things more than a month in advance. Those of us who are daughters-in-law and so important ministers and won in the court will co here." Copy scriptures and fast for three days, "
Feng Lisheng has never heard of it, mainly because he has been very busy these two days. He didn't think much about it, after all, the royal family did have such a rule.
"Then I'll take you there."
Shen Mingjiao waved her hand: "No, Huguo Temple is not far away, so you should go get busy first!"
"I have nothing to do today..."
Before the words fell, a fast horse ca forward, and the soldier in armor dismounted and saluted with fists in his hands:
"Your Highness, there is an urgent report from the army that officials and bandits in Pingjiang County, Suzhou have colluded and aroused public grievances, resulting in riots. Many people have died. The Suzhou garrison is requesting support."
Feng Lisheng's face beca more and more serious.
Shen Mingjiao saw it, and said: "It's important, let's go!"
Feng Lisheng nodded, pointed to Tie Zhu and followed Shen Mingjiao.
Because Feng Lisheng accompanied him out, he didn't bring many guards, and Yang Dayanger was also sent out by him.
"I'll let Xu Daniu and the others co over later."
Shen Mingjiao was a little speechless: "It's not like I'm going on a long trip, I'm going to a group of high-ranking officials and won. Besides, didn't the second prince of Beidi leave? What danger can I have?"
Feng Lisheng thought about it, and said that he might return late today, so he followed the soldier and left.
Shen Mingjiao supported Qiu Ju's hand to get on the sedan chair. The carriage headed towards Huguo Temple.
In a sedan chair not far away, Shen Mingyan quietly watched the carriage disappear from sight. Then he lowered his head and gritted his teeth, and with a bark, the delicate handkerchief in his hand was severely torn in half.
…
Arrived at the gate of the Huguo Temple, Shen Mingjiao just got out of the carriage when she saw Cui Lingling supporting Mrs. Lu Guogong.
Cui Lingling saw her, her eyes lit up, she let go of Mrs. Lu Guogong's hand, and trotted over.
Frightened Mrs. Lu Guogong repeatedly exclaid: "Hey! Slow down..."
Shen Mingjiao walked over a few steps and grabbed her, "I'm going to be a mother, and you're still so frizzy!"
Cui Lingling stuck out her tongue.
Mrs. Lu Guogong and Shen Mingjiao who caught up with her bent down to salute, and then touched Cui Lingling's head.
"Princess, please take care of my Lingling."
After finishing speaking, he walked into the temple hand in hand with several wives of similar age.
Shen Mingjiao asked curiously: "Why did you also co to Huguo Temple?"
"I ca with my mother." She sighed sadly, "Now that Qin Yan is not here, the house is really deserted!"
"By the way, I'm about to go to Su Wang's Mansion? There is a clue to what your Highness wants to investigate."
"He has sothing to go to the military camp, and I'm afraid he won't be back until tomorrow, or you can just tell , I'll go back and tell him."
Cui Lingling shook her head with a serious face: "No, there are rules in our religion, you can't trade news with others casually."
Shen Mingjiao: "The family mbers can't do it either?"
Cui Lingling shook her head righteously: "No."
"Okay! Anyway, I will know tomorrow."
She asked Feng Lisheng privately about the relationship between the Red Lotus Sect and the royal family. To sum it up, the Red Lotus Sect is regarded as the emperor's intelligence organization.
Of course, the Red Lotus Sect is not privately owned by the royal family. The two parties belong to a cooperative relationship. The Red Lotus Sect is responsible for providing information to the emperor, and the emperor has to protect them secretly.
After the accumulation of generations, the information network of the Red Lotus Sect has penetrated almost the entire Great Xia.
…
The two entered the main hall of the Huguo Temple, and found that several princesses and so important officials and won had arrived.
Not long after, the forbidden army in armor creases cleared the way, and Luan, who was protecting the queen, entered the Huguo Temple, along with the crown princess Su Qing.
Calculating that it was almost ti, several eminent monks from Huguo Temple filed into the hall, perford a Buddhist ceremony to the queen, and then began to perform rituals with their legs crossed.
The queen takes the lead, followed by several princesses, and then the wives. Everyone bowed their heads and knelt silently, and the whole hall looked solemn and solemn.
This ceremony will last for two full hours, but everyone here is pampered, so kneeling for two hours is naturally impossible.
The monks of Huguo Temple also knew this, so after half an hour, the Buddhist beads that were rolled under the pavilion of the first eminent monk.
The queen took the lead in supporting Su Qing's hand to stand up, and sat down on a low stool to rest.
When the ladies saw this, they got up in twos and threes, or sat and rested, or went to the back hall together to go to the toilet.
Shen Mingjiao rubbed her kneeling numb legs, then lifted her feet to the apse. Princess Yu limped after her, "Let's go together."
The queen glanced at the backs of the two leaving, and said to Su Qing who was sitting gracefully: "The princess should also go down and have so tea and snacks!"
Su Qing lowered her eyelashes, hiding the emotions in her eyes, and said with a warm smile: "Thank you mother for your compassion, Qing'er is not tired."
Shen Mingjiao and the two ca to the Gong room in the back hall, and there were already several ladies standing at the door.
Seeing that it would take a long ti to wait, Princess Yu pulled the lady beside her,
"Is there no other house besides this?"
The lady who was questioned shook her head. Instead, a lady at the side pointed to a door in the back corner and said:
"Just before I ca in, I heard from a passing monk that there is a Gongfang after going out of this gate and going north for a while."
Princess Yu dragged Shen Mingjiao to go there, and when the other wives saw and saw so many people in front of them, they also walked out of the corner door together.
Because we want to pray for the queen mother and show sincerity, everyone including the queen. They all left the maids and maids outside.
Didn't go far, and everyone saw a Gong room.
Princess Yu went in first, and after she ca out, it was Shen Mingjiao's turn. After all, the two of them had the highest status present.
Several wives disliked the taste of Gong's house, so they all stood far away.
Princess Yu stood for a while, and the voices of two won could be heard from afar.
"...Hey, have you heard? The eldest son of Han Shilang's mansion is having an affair with Han Shilang's concubine, and the guests who ca to the banquet happened to bump into him, tsk tsk! I heard that the concubine's bellyband is hanging on Han Gongzi's arm..."
Princess Yu's eyes brightened, as if she had picked up a huge sum of money, she couldn't help but hold her breath and leaned forward to listen. The other ladies also raised their ears calmly.
Don’t listen to anything indecent. When encountering this kind of hot gossip, especially if the target is soone they know, the one who can hold back and not listen is definitely a saint!
Obviously, the ladies present were not. Moreover, those two won seem to be very good at telling this kind of gossip, within a few words, the listeners can't stop.
Completely forgot that they ca to use the toilet.
Until Cui Lingling, who was strolling in the front yard, passed by, she saluted Princess Yu and asked curiously, "Why are you standing here for so long? By the way, where is Sister Gillian?"
Princess Yu finally woke up from the state of receiving gossip, glanced at the quiet Gongfang, and said in a daze:
"My brother and sister are going to the toilet, hey, why hasn't she co out after so long?"
The wives also ca back to their senses. Soone glanced at the two wives who had disappeared, feeling a bad premonition in their hearts.
Cui Lingling didn't care so much, and rushed to Gong's room in a few steps, it was empty and there was no one at all.
