Chapter 113 Inkstone is back
Zhengze is the sword disciple around Zhao Yungui, representing the wishes of the Imperial Master.
Xiao Zhengze, who walked into the main hall, wore a straight white and blue robe, with a sword on his waist, and respectfully saluted the Queen Mother and others.
Jiang Jinshuang raised her eyebrows slightly, a little surprised.
Why is little Zhengze here?
The Queen Mother did not have much contact with the Imperial Master, but she respected him very much.
Now that she saw Zhengze, she smiled lovingly: "Why are you here, Lord Zhengze? Is the Master of the State also at the Huguo Temple?"
Xiao Zhengze faced the Queen Mother Feng Zun, neither humble nor arrogant, calm and polite: "Back to the Queen Mother, my Lord has been practicing in Huguo Temple these days and is staying in the Zen room in the back mountain."
The Queen Mother nodded: "The Imperial Master has dedicated his whole life for Wan Jin, and the Ai family is very pleased."
After a pause, the Queen Mother still smiled: "I wonder why Lord Zhengze is here?"
Xiao Zhengze cupped his fists and bowed: "Back to the Queen Mother, my lord has not come to worship the Buddha statue since he came to Huguo Temple."
"But the Queen Mother also knows that as a national teacher, even though the three religions have the same origin, it is not easy to come and worship the Buddha statue in person."
The Queen Mother nodded slightly and expressed her understanding: "So, Sir Zhengze came to offer incense on behalf of the Imperial Master?"
Upon hearing this question, Xiao Zhengze slowly faced Jiang Jinshuang.
"Your Royal Highness, my master said that he would like to ask you to offer a stick of incense on his behalf."
The regular voice is clear and clear.
When everyone heard this, they were stunned.
Especially the Queen Mother frowned when she heard this, and the kindness on her face disappeared: "Mr. Zhengze, did you remember it wrong? It is clear that her status is not suitable for offering incense to the Imperial Master."
After saying that, the Queen Mother glanced at Jiang Biechen behind her.
Jiang Biechen understood and took a few steps forward: "If you don't mind, Sir, I would like to offer incense and worship Buddha for him."
Zhengze clasped his fists and said, "Your Highness, please forgive me. My lord told me when he came here that the prince is the future heir apparent. He has a body worth thousands of dollars. It is enough to worship him. It is disrespectful to offer incense to him."
It would be disrespectful to ask the Prince of the East Palace to offer incense for the Imperial Master, but would it not be right to ask Her Royal Highness Princess Zhaoming to offer incense?
Jiang Jinshuang suppressed the smile on her lips and looked at Xiao Zhengze calmly.
——This little guy just wants to support her, right?
Jiang Biechen frowned slightly, but couldn't argue.
Hearing this, the Queen Mother twitched her lips and said, "In that case, if the Imperial Master does not dislike it, Yu Rong can also offer incense on your behalf."
With that said, the Queen Mother pointed to Xia Yurong beside her.
Xia Yurong bit her lip slightly, with a shy blush on her cheeks, and turned towards little Zhengze: "I have met Mr. Zhengze."
The beautiful little sword eyebrows frowned. Facing this woman whom he had never seen before, little Zhengze had no good temper.
"I've never seen it, I don't know it, I'm not qualified."
He spoke coldly, causing Xia Yurong's expression to change drastically, and she became a little helpless.
Xiao Zhengze didn't care about this, he still turned to face Jiang Jinshuang, bowed slightly and clasped his fists: "Your Highness, please offer a stick of incense for our National Master."
The Queen Mother refused to tolerate her.
Zhao Yungui wanted to support her.
Jiang Jinshuang chuckled lightly and took a few steps forward: "Then it's better to be respectful than to obey."
Hearing this, the Queen Mother frowned and said in a cold voice: "Zhaoming, see your own position clearly."
It's already a warning.
Jiang Jinshuang chuckled lightly, but before she could speak, Zhengze on the side said firmly: "The Queen Mother, my master also said that if he has any objections, he can argue in person. Please don't embarrass Her Highness the Princess."
Neither humble nor arrogant, never giving in.
For a moment, there was a cold look on the Queen Mother's face.
"I really don't want to worship Buddha. Since it is requested by the Master of the State, I will reluctantly ask for a stick of incense."
Jiang Jinshuang is particularly good at taking advantage and acting well.
The Queen Mother's face became even more ugly.
She walked to the futon. As soon as she stepped behind her, Abbot Zhengze and Miaofeng both took a stick of incense and prepared to hand it to Jiang Jinshuang.
Jiang Jinshuang smiled and took them all.
The Queen Mother could only ask for a stick of incense from Huguo Temple.
——She asked for two sticks.
Isn't this a slap in the Queen Mother's face? Jiang Jinshuang was happy.
It seems that this trip to Huguo Temple is quite interesting.
In the end, Jiang Jinshuang finished worshiping the Golden Buddha under the cold eyes of the Queen Mother. She stood up calmly and heard Xiao Zhengze on the side say: "Thank you, Your Highness."
The Queen Mother watched the entire process with a cold expression. After Jiang Jinshuang stood up, she snorted coldly and left with a puff of sleeves.
Xia Yurong bit her lip slightly and followed the Queen Mother away.
Jiang Biechen chuckled, looked at Jiang Jinshuang with interest, then turned and left the hall.
After everyone left, Xiao Zhengze bowed to Abbot Miaofeng beside him and thanked him: "Thank you, Master. Master said that if the Queen Mother blames him in the future, Master will just go find him."
When Miaofeng heard this, he just waved his hands and smiled: "It's just a small matter of offering incense, how can it be so serious."
Zhengze didn't say anything else, he just frowned and snorted coldly at Jiang Jinshuang.
Yo ho?
Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version!
Jiang Jinshuang laughed out loud and said unconsciously: "Sister Zhengze, why do you treat your master with so much respect and treat your beautiful sister so coldly?"
Zhengze snorted unhappily: "My master knew that you were going to get into trouble, so he asked me to help you."
"That's unfair, little sir Zhengze," Jiang Jinshuang blinked innocently, "I didn't say a word, I'm very well-behaved."
"You, you, you, you!" Zhengze pointed at Jiang Jinshuang and wanted to say something, but for a long time he just crossed his arms and muttered, "Anyway, it was my master's clever plan!"
Jiang Jinshuang followed the good advice: "Yes, yes, thank you, Master, for your rescue. I am deeply grateful~"
In fact, even if the Imperial Master doesn't come and Master Miaofeng doesn't speak for her, it doesn't matter.
It was just a stick of incense. Jiang Jinshuang didn't care much about these false gifts.
But now that they were willing to support her, the feeling was different.
Jiang Jinshuang was in a good mood.
Xiao Zhengze was duplicitous: "Don't be sentimental. I, my master, took action to prevent Master Miaofeng from being embarrassed, not for you."
Changed his mind again.
I just said it was to save her.
Jiang Jinshuang smiled and shook her head, brushing the top of Xiao Zhengze's hair with one hand: "Okay, okay, what Mr. Zhengze said is right. No matter what, I still want to thank Mr. Imperial Master. Mr. Zhengze will do it for me." Bring it to the palace.”
The tips of Zheng Ze's ears turned red, and he took a few steps back in a hurry, combing his fallen hair in a panic: "Discourteous! Extremely rude!"
With that said, Xiaozheng turned around and left angrily!
When the matter came to an end, Jiang Jinshuang said goodbye to Master Miaofeng and returned to the meditation room.
There are many Zen rooms in Huguo Temple.
Jiang Jinshuang's Zen room is the most corner one among several people. It is remote and quiet, with few people coming.
As soon as she entered the courtyard, Jiang Jinshuang still felt a little familiar. When she opened the door of the Zen room, Jiang Jinshuang was stunned at the entrance.
——She saw a vase placed on the desk in the Zen room. There were several blooming peach blossom branches in the vase, so fresh that you could still see the dewdrops on them.
No wonder this Zen room looks familiar.
——It was the one she stayed in when she brought Pei Du to Huguo Temple.
However, this flower branch looks very new, as if it is replaced regularly.
Jiang Jinshuang went out and asked a young novice monk.
The little novice monk thought for a while and then realized: "The donor is talking about the Zen room in the corner of the other courtyard, right?"
"The flower branches in the Zen room were placed personally by a donor who came to stay in the temple every spring and placed flower branches in the room every day."
"Later, the young monk also got used to it. After the benefactor left, if the peach blossoms had not yet bloomed, the young monk would find a flower branch and place it in the Zen room after a few days."
After a pause, the young novice monk said: "Does the donor not like peach blossoms? Go and take out the vase, young monk."
Jiang Jinshuang smiled and waved her hand: "No, little master, thank you very much."
——
It's night.
After the fast meal, Jiang Jinshuang lay on the bed in the Zen room.
She had to get up early tomorrow to go to the temple to chant sutras and pray, so Jiang Jinshuang closed her eyes early.
A figure passed through the door.
Jiang Jinshuang slowly opened her eyes.
A shadow fell outside the window lattice.
Jiang Jinshuang smiled helplessly: "Yanjue, how did you know I was here?"
