The news that Chu Yan was appointed as the Commander of the Jinwu Guard spread instantly in the capital like wings, because Chu Yan had already had a great reputation in the capital before, and this time taking over the position of Commander of the Jinwu Guard is also what the people want. Praise the emperor for his eyesight and knowledge of gold, but few people mentioned the ten years he was bedridden.
After the news came out, some families were happy and some were sad.
Marquis Weiyuan's Mansion, Prince Yan's Mansion, the Seventh Prince and the people who supported the Seventh Prince were all rejoicing, but King Jing, who was the close relative of Chu Yan, didn't see much joy on his face, and Prince Jing's only in-law, Ann, was very happy. Jingbo also had a bitter face.
When Uncle An Jing returned home, he happened to meet Su Yan leaving with Zhong Ning and the maids.
Su Yan saw Uncle An Jing's sad face right away, and she knew why Uncle An Jing was upset, so she deliberately asked, "Why doesn't Father look very happy?"
Could he say it was because he was afraid that Chu Yan would trip him up
"You want to go out?" Although Uncle An Jing no longer has any majesty to talk about with Su Yan, he still acted like a strict father and "pointed" Su Yan in Su Yan's ear: "Whether this woman is a husband or not, The family is much favored, so I still have to rely on my natal family." Uncle An Jing had a serious face, but he almost said to Su Yan directly, "It is only good for you to say a few words of kindness for the father in front of the eldest son." up.
Seeing that An Jingbo clearly wanted her to help, but still pretended to be a wolf with a big tail, Su Yan thought it was very funny, and nodded slightly: "Daughter remembers father's teaching."
"Um."
Uncle An Jing watched Su Yan get into the carriage, but he was thinking about how to please Chu Yan, the future son-in-law.
The moment Su Yan's carriage left, several beggars squatting opposite An Jingbo's mansion also quietly left.
In King Qin's mansion, King Qin tapped the table with his index finger.
"Commander of the Jinwu Guard?" Qin Wang narrowed his sharp eagle eyes: "It seems that Father really values this person."
"Yes." The long follower replied.
King Qin's eyes were like a deep pool, making it impossible to guess what he was thinking. King Qin paused for a moment: "How long will it take for Yinwei to come back?"
The hidden guards are the two teams of guards sent by King Qin to investigate Princess Jinyang and Su Yan.
The long follower roughly estimated: "The time is too long, at least half a month."
"Okay." King Qin's index finger was still tapping rhythmically on the table, constantly planning in his mind.
The emperor planned to introduce him to the people of the world through the welcome banquet two days later. Originally, the king of Qin thought it was too hasty, but now, he couldn't wait.
After a while, a man dressed as a porter came in and whispered something in King Qin's ear.
Qin Wang's eyes lit up, and a wicked smile appeared on the corner of his mouth: "Prepare the horse!"
Ci'an Temple is on the outskirts of the city, as soon as Su Yan's carriage left the city gate, Zhong Ning couldn't wait to open the window and look out.
As February approaches, the weather is no longer cold, only the cold wind is still howling, and the ice and snow on the ground are constantly melting under the sunshine.
Ci'an Temple is just a small temple. The old lady came here once in a while when she was young, and she felt that the Bodhisattva in this temple is very effective, so she came here often. Over the past few decades, she has donated a lot of sesame oil money to Ci'an Temple.
Because of this, most of the people who come and go to Ci'an Temple are ordinary people or small families. When Su Yan's sedan chair stopped at the foot of the mountain, many people inevitably watched him.
Su Yan went up the mountain on foot, and under the guidance of Cai Xia, she first donated money for sesame oil before entering the hall.
People say that nine out of ten temples are rich, and this is indeed true. Although Ci'an Temple is only a small temple, it is quite impressive, not to mention the golden bodies of all Bodhisattvas in the main hall, even the words on the plaque at the entrance are pure gold.
As soon as she stepped into the hall, Su Yan felt an invisible coercion. She felt that she was being watched by many people, her heart was trembling, and even her scalp felt cold. Su Yan didn't know what was wrong with her, she resisted the strange feeling and walked to the center of the hall, when she looked up, she saw an arhat staring at her like a copper bell, her heart skipped a beat, and her face turned pale.
Su Yan held back her fear and raised her head to look at the Buddha enshrined in the middle of the main hall, but she felt dizzy as soon as her eyes touched the Buddha, and she wobbled so that she couldn't stand still.
"Senior Sister, what's wrong with you?" Zhong Ning supported Su Yan, and asked repeatedly when she saw her complexion.
Su Yan paled and shook her head.
I couldn't help but wonder in my heart, could it be that I was so scared when I saw the Buddha because I lived my whole life again and violated the way of heaven
Just when Su Yan was thinking wildly, an old monk in cassock walked towards Su Yan with his palms folded.
"Amitabha, this old man is the abbot of this temple, and his Dharma name is Yuan'an." Yuan'an had a white beard on his face. A pair of clear eyes glanced between Su Yan's eyebrows, and then clasped his hands together and performed a Buddhist ceremony to Su Yan: "The benefactor should leave as soon as possible, you are not a person of this world, a person who violates the way of heaven. Staying in this hall may damage Yangshou."
This monk actually saw it? Su Yan was very surprised, looked up at Yuan An, only to find that his eyes were exceptionally clear, Su Yan had a feeling that she had nothing to hide under his gaze. At the same time, when Yuan An walked in front of her, the strange coercion that Su Yan felt disappeared instantly.
Immediately four big characters popped up in Su Yan's mind, "I have attained enlightenment to an eminent monk."
"Amitabha." Su Yan performed the Buddha's ceremony respectfully to Yuan An, and looked at Yuan An earnestly. She wanted to ask Yuan An if she knew why she violated the law of heaven to live again, or whether it would have any effect on her future if she violated the law of heaven. Influence.
But before Su Yan asked, Yuan An seemed to know what Su Yan was going to say, smiled and shook his head at Su Yan and said: "The Buddha said, don't say it. Everything has a cause and an effect, and there is an effect." There must be a reason, the donor can get this good fortune, it must be someone who planted the fruit for you."
The meaning of Yuan An's presiding is... Her rebirth is the result, and what caused her rebirth was someone planted a cause for her in the previous life? Who would that be? What is the reason for planting it
Su Yan couldn't figure it out for a while.
Zhong Ning looked at the bewildered monk who suddenly appeared out of nowhere: "We have donated money for sesame oil." He obviously regarded Yuan An as one of those monks begging for money for sesame oil.
Su Yan stopped Zhong Ning, and solemnly performed a Buddha ceremony to Yuan An: "Thank you, Master."
Yuan An smiled, turned and left.
The moment Yuan An left, Su Yan felt the coercion again, and immediately dragged Zhong Ning out of the hall with her head down.
"What's wrong with you today?" Zhong Ning felt that Su Yan was a little strange.
