Zhou Shuren felt that fortune-telling was a bit of a joke. No matter how the emperor asked, Master Huixin would just say four words: "stabilize the country and ensure its security." He didn't say any other words. When asked urgently, Master Huixin would just say "Amitabha."
No matter how unwilling the emperor was, it was of no use. He knew the old monk's abilities, and someone had told his fortune once, and it was accurate.
The beads in the emperor's hand were spinning rapidly. It was obvious that the emperor was dissatisfied. He wanted to hear more. People are greedy.
The prince looked left and right, and finally stood there obediently. Of course, it would have been better if he had ignored the gaze directed at Zhou Shuren.
The emperor looked at Hui Xin who had her eyes closed, and after a long silence, he sighed and said, "I am sorry to bother you today. Do you know what you can and cannot say?"
Hui Xin then opened his eyes, "Amitabha, I understand."
Zhou Shuren looked at Huixin with scrutiny, and saw Huixin looking at him. Huixin was old, and her eyes were deep. Zhou Shuren felt like he was seen through. All of a sudden he saw Master Huixin smile again, and it seemed like it was an illusion just now.
Zhou Shuren, "!!"
He felt that the old monk had something to say, and his heart was pounding!
The emperor and others did not notice this little action. The emperor was still ill. After a while, he was tired and said, "Master Huixin, I will not keep you any longer."
After a pause, he said to Zhou Shuren, "Marquis Zhou should also go back."
Zhou Shuren, "..."
This gives me a sense of security. I'm sure I don't need him anymore. However, I just had my fortune told, so it's better for me to run away.
Master Huixin stood up, and Zhou Shuren followed suit, and then they retreated together.
After leaving the hall, Zhou Shuren let out a long sigh. He had not come out since he came in yesterday. He was anxious to go home. He wondered how worried his wife must be!
Zhou Shuren nodded to Master Huixin, then left quickly. He didn't want to talk to the old monk. His intuition told him that it was better to stay away from him.
They had only walked halfway out of the palace, and Master Huixin had been following them at a leisurely pace. Zhou Shuren was not stupid, so he stopped and said, "Master Huixin."
Hui Xin chanted Amitabha Buddha, "I was wondering when Lord Zhou would stop. Lord Zhou is indeed very thoughtful."
Zhou Shuren rolled his eyes in his heart, but he was sure that he would stop. "I don't deserve Master Huixin's praise. I am actually just an ordinary person, a very ordinary person."
Hui Xin, "Everyone in this world is a vulgar person, but Zhou Hou is the one who sees things clearly."
Zhou Shuren, "..."
Okay, you are a master, and what you said are all life philosophies.
Hui Xin had wanted to meet Zhou Hou alone for a long time, but unfortunately, Zhou Hou was unwilling to come to Huguo Temple, and he could not leave the temple often. This was the first time he met Zhou Hou. "I have always been curious about Zhou Hou, and today I met him."
Zhou Shuren asked: "Disappointed?"
"No, seeing you today actually makes me feel at ease."
Otherwise, he would not have told the result in front of Zhou Hou. People are greedy, and Zhou Hou would not do that, so he was willing to tell it, but was unwilling to say more.
Hui Xin continued, "I am familiar with Lord Zhou's policies. Lord Zhou is dedicated to the people. I admire him. I hope that Lord Zhou's heart for the people will not change. Amitabha."
Zhou Shuren's eyes were complicated. The old monk was being modest. He must have studied all his policies. He trusted him. "This Marquis's original intention remains unchanged."
Master Huixin smiled and said, "Great kindness."
This conversation soon reached the ears of the Emperor and the Retired Emperor. The Emperor coughed and asked, "What do you think of Zhou Shuren?"
The emperor put down the beads in his hand, his face serious, "A normal person would be more or less surprised to hear that he is the one who stabilizes the country, but Zhou Shuren was not like that. Instead, he listened to the result as if he was watching a joke."
Zhou Shuren looked like this was fortune telling, and that was it
The emperor chuckled, "This man doesn't tell fortunes. His family never tells fortunes for their offspring except for matching their horoscopes. But Huixin has something to say."
The emperor, "didn't tell Zhou Shuren, but he affirmed Zhou Shuren's heart for the people."
The emperor said quietly, "I am just too persistent."
Your Majesty, "The nightmare is too real."
The emperor didn't want to recall it, and waved to his grandson, "You have been here today. I don't like you to rely too much on Marquis Zhou, but you must respect him. You have to control the degree."
Prince, "Yes."
The Emperor continued, "Let's forget about what happened today."
Prince, "My grandson will keep his mouth shut."
He is not stupid, so why would he leak it? Grandpa actually calculated Zhou Hou's fortune twice, which shows that grandpa completely believes in Zhou Hou's ability to stabilize the country. How could he let other people know
At Zhou's house, Zhulan came in with Shuren. Now the maids and the old women were all there, so she didn't want to smell anything. She could only ask, "Do you want to take a bath?"
Zhou Shuren didn't wash up yesterday, so he really wanted to take a shower. "Okay."
Zhulan followed him into the house and said, "Then you take a shower, I'll ask the kitchen to prepare your favorite meal."
Zhou Shuren said: "Don't make too much. I can't eat it all. Just make less."
"good."
She told Zhou Shuren to change his clothes by himself while she went out to make arrangements.
Zhou Shuren took a quick shower, and when he came out, he curled up on the small kang, drinking the prepared juice to replenish his water. He felt comfortable and said with a smile: "A nest of gold or silver is not as good as my own nest. My own home is still more comfortable."
Zhulan had already sent the maids away, and there was no one guarding the door. "The boss and Changyi wanted to stay home today, but I didn't let them. I sent them all away this morning. The boss should be back from the farm soon."
After listening to it, Zhou Shuren told the story of what happened in the palace, "The elders can't talk about this. The royal family also wants me to shut up. There were no outsiders in the palace at that time."
Zhu Lan took a long time to come back to her senses. "I actually told you your fortune twice? Was it accurate?"
"Whether it's accurate or not, what we have done in recent years is indeed a good strategy. Compared with the nightmare of the retired emperor, our life is now certain. Master Ligong Huixin and I talked for a while. This master is indeed capable."
Zhu Lan, "That's why I hate fortune tellers the most. Wu Ming's grandmother also told Wu Ming's fortune, and it was accurate."
Zhou Shuren, "..."
He was scared, scared, but after having his fortune told today, it was even more impossible for him to go to the Huguo Temple.
Zhulan nodded at the table and said, "Let's just live our lives as usual so that the royal family won't think too much."
"I know what I should do. It doesn't matter whether I have my fortune told or not."
Zhulan sneered, "What sweet dreams are you having."
Zhou Shuren, "Hmm?"
"You were given a fortune twice, and with the added bonus of the Emperor's nightmare, do you think the royal family will let you go?"
Zhou Shuren, "..."
Zhou Shuren came out of the palace with Master Huixin. Everyone was confused. After being confused, they just wanted to know what had happened in the palace.
So the couple hadn't talked for a moment when Rong Yuyun came over.
Zhou Shuren kept silent about it. He didn't want to lie. If he lied, he would have to cover it up, so it was better to keep silent.
Rong Yuyun was sure that he couldn't get anything out of him, so he stopped asking. He felt relieved that Shuren was back. "I have something to tell you."
