"Miss, can't you really ask the Qingyun Temple Master to come over? She is really powerful." Yu Chun couldn't help but say again. She had heard a lot of rumors about the Qingyun Temple Master since she was a child. The Master was praised as a deity. After hearing and seeing so much, Yu Chun had a crush on the Qingyun Temple Master.
"Of course not. If she wanted to see me, she would have faced me directly." Qu Moying smiled and shook his head.
"The abbot of Qingyun Temple may not know the young lady!" Yu Chun thought for a moment and said.
Yu Dong reached out and tapped her forehead. "How could the Qingyun Temple Master not know that the bamboo building in front belongs to the prince? Now that the young lady can go there, she must have guessed the young lady's identity. Although she is not in the temple, she is still closely related to the palace. She must have known that the young lady became the Princess of England."
"So, even if she has never seen the young lady, she would have guessed it?" Yu Chun covered her head with her hands and cried out, taking a step back, very unconvinced, "The master of Qingyun Temple is an otherworldly expert, how could he care about such worldly matters!"
"When we were there before, the abbot of Qingyun Temple was with Concubine Ji. It can be seen that he is not just otherworldly." After tasting the tea, Qu Moying suddenly smiled, picked up the teacup and took another sip.
"I think so too. If this man is really an indifferent hermit, why would he meet Concubine Ji? The biggest difference between Concubine Ji and the young lady at that time is that she is a member of the royal family. That was the time when she had a bright future." Yu Dong said disapprovingly.
For the master of Qingyun Temple, Yudong is not Yuchun.
"Excuse me, is Miss Qu Si here?" A voice suddenly came from outside the bamboo building, and the master and his servants were all stunned.
Yudong reacted the fastest. At Qu Moying's signal, he pushed open the door and walked out. However, he saw a female nun standing downstairs of the small building. She looked to be in her twenties, in the prime of her life, with delicate features and a beautiful appearance.
It was really surprising to see such a female nun in such a place. Even though Yu Dong was very brave, he was stunned for a moment.
"Excuse me, is Miss Qu Si here?" The nun below looked up and smiled, her face was bright, and against the Taoist robe, she actually looked as if she was floating in the sky.
"Who are you?" Yu Dong asked after looking her up and down.
"I'm Ning Yinzi, and I've been following the abbot's instructions to bring some snacks and tea to Miss Qu Si." Master Ning Yin smiled and pointed to the food basket in his hand.
It really does look like a heavy food basket.
"Yudong, please let in Master Ningyin." Qu Moying's gentle voice came from behind Yudong. Although Yudong was still a little confused, it was not convenient to ask more questions at this time.
Go down and help Master Ningyin to carry up the food basket.
"My humble abbot greets Miss Qu Si." Zhenren Ning Yin came up and bowed to Qu Moying, who also stood up and bowed sideways.
"You are so polite, please take a seat."
"Thank you, Miss Qu Si." Master Ning Yin thanked her generously and sat down on the brocade stool opposite Qu Moying, with a smile on her face and a beautiful complexion. With the Taoist robe, her complexion seemed even more fairy-like.
It is really a pity that such a woman ended up in a Taoist temple.
"Just now, when the abbot saw Miss Qu Si coming, he asked me to bring some snacks and tea to Miss Qu Si." Master Ning Yin picked up the food basket that Yu Dong had placed on the ground.
Then they took them out one by one.
There were indeed quite a lot of things, four plates of dim sum, still emitting a faint steam, obviously having been prepared not long ago.
The sweet aroma of the snacks and the fresh fragrance of the tea made everyone present feel warm and comfortable.
Qu Moying took the tea handed over by Master Ning Yin, took a sip, and tasted it carefully. The tea had a light floral fragrance that was refreshing.
"What do you think, Miss Qu Si?" Master Ning Yin also poured himself a cup, sat down and took a sip, then asked with a smile.
"It was made from the snow on the plum petals last year, which was buried deep underground and was taken out not long ago." Qu Moying said with a smile, and took another sip, "The water stains are very good, which shows that the plum blossoms are also excellent."
"Miss Qu Si is indeed a wonderful person. This water was indeed buried by me last year. When I heard that Miss Qu Si was coming, I specially made tea and sent it to you." Master Ning Yin smiled. She was very beautiful, but not the kind that could attack others. She was very likable.
"Why haven't I seen Master Ning Yin before?" Qu Moying asked with a smile.
"In fact, I have been in Qingyun Temple for a long time, but my appearance is not good. My master told me to focus on cultivation and avoid showing up in public." Master Ningyin smiled, his eyes fell, and he looked a little helpless. "I was forced to become a nun because of my appearance."
This must be another old story of being forced to enter Qingyun Temple. Look at this person's appearance. If she were from an ordinary family, she might not be able to protect herself. Her beauty is too great, which is not necessarily a good thing for ordinary people. If she is not careful, she may end up in a brothel.
Being a female priest who does not show her face here is actually a good thing.
Of course, this first requires you to overcome loneliness.
Qu Moying was not curious about the past of this Master Ning Yin, and had no intention of asking further. He was only interested in the two words in her previous sentence: "Whose master is Master Ning Yin's disciple?"
"My master is the abbot of the temple." Master Ning Yin seemed a little embarrassed, and said with a slightly red face, "It was I who let the cat out of the bag."
"No wonder the Immortal is so outstanding that he has the temple master as his teacher." Qu Moying praised.
"Miss Qu Si, you are too kind! My master does not want others to know that she is my master. I always address her as the abbot. When I came here just now, the abbot specially asked me to send a few books to Miss Qu Si. I heard that Miss Qu Si has some research on musical notation. There happened to be a few books in the abbot, so I brought two of them here."
Master Ning Yin smiled and took out two music scores from the bottom of the food basket and pushed them in front of Qu Moying. "It's rare for Fourth Miss Qu to come to the temple. Something like that happened when she was in the temple before. Afterwards, our temple master felt very guilty. I originally wanted to come to apologize to Fourth Miss Qu, but it was not convenient. It just so happened that Fourth Miss Qu came today."
She was talking about the fact that Qu Moying had performed a funeral for his mother before, and the funeral was held in a different temple. Others were unaware of this, but the master of Qingyun Temple must have known about it.
Afterwards, many things also happened in Qingyun Temple. If the temple master were to investigate, he would definitely find many clues.
Although this incident has nothing to do with Qingyun Temple, it happened in Qingyun Temple after all. The master of Qingyun Temple had such an idea, which was very polite but reasonable.
"It's all over now, you are too polite." Qu Moying
Her eyes swept across the music score in front of her, and her brows couldn't help but slightly knotted.
Now, has everyone guessed that she likes music scores
"Although the incident has passed, our temple master is still upset, so he specially ordered me to come here to apologize." Taoist Master Ning Yin stood up and bowed properly to Qu Moying.
Qu Moying quickly stood up and returned the greeting.
"Now that the things have been delivered, I'll take my leave!" Master Ning Yin had no intention of staying here any longer and said goodbye to Qu Moying with a smile.
"It's a rare opportunity to meet the real person, why don't you sit down and chat?" Qu Moying invited.
Master Ning Yin hesitated for a moment, but then said generously, "Then I'm sorry to bother Miss Qu Si."
"Sorry for disturbing you. It's fate that we meet." Qu Moying said with a smile.
"Indeed, it is fate that I can see the true face of Fourth Miss Qu. I heard that Fourth Miss Qu had eye disease since childhood. Now that she is cured, Fourth Miss Qu is very lucky." Master Ning Yin said with a smile.
These words made Yu Chun, who was standing behind Qu Moying, very excited. When she heard that the Master Ning Yin in front of her was the disciple of the master of Qingyun Temple, she was already very excited. Now she looked at the Master Ning Yin with even more excitement.
The abbot of Qingyun Temple is extremely efficacious. This Ningyin Zhenren has not appeared in public in the past, so she must have been practicing. So she must be extremely efficacious, and what she said must be true.
"Thank you for your kind words, sir." Qu Moying smiled slightly. Under her long eyelashes, her eyes were clear with a hint of smile, like spring light breaking through water, extremely tempting.
The Ning Yin in front of me is really beautiful and pure.
But compared to Qu Moying, who looks charming at first glance, and pure and charming upon closer inspection, she is still a little inferior. However, people prefer purity. To be honest, even if most people think that Qu Moying is much more beautiful, they will still say that Ning Yin is a fairy from heaven.
Fairies are supposed to be pure, so how can they be so alluring and charming
Picking up the music score in front of him, Qu Moying flipped through two pages and was immediately attracted. A burning look flashed in his eyes and he couldn't help but repeatedly said, "Good score, good score!"
"This score should have been left behind when the first master was alive. I don't know exactly when it was left behind, but after reading it, I think it should be the widely circulated Hanjiang score. It's just that the Hanjiang score was destroyed later, and there is no longer any version of it."
Master Ning Yin sighed.
Han Jiang Pu was once written by a great zither player in the previous dynasty. It was widely sung at one time, and even the concubines in the harem were proud to know a piece of Han Jiang Pu. But later, this zither player was implicated in a case of treason, and not only was his entire family executed, but even the copy of Han Jiang Pu was banned.
No one dared to speak out in public anymore.
After that, there was war and the Han Jiang Pu music was no longer played. Until now, I have never heard of anyone having the Han Jiang Pu music sheet.
Qu Moying read through the score again at a glance. The more he read, the more he agreed with it. His fingers even moved uncontrollably along the edges, making picking and swiping movements as he followed the tune of the score, as if he were playing the piece himself.
After a long while, he put down the music sheet in his hand, smiled like a flower, and sighed: "That's it, I didn't expect that the real person is also a master of music!"
If you didn't have a deep knowledge of zither music, you wouldn't know the story of Hanjiangpu.
