Chapter 20
"Brother, there is nothing special about stopping here." Instead of being alone in private, Li Heng went out incognito again. When there are others outside, Li Fang respectfully calls Li Heng brother.
Li Heng stands far away from the gate of the small temple of Guanyin. When Li Lang chased after him, he perfectly missed the Jia sisters and cousins Liao Lun and Lu Mian who entered the temple. So seeing that there was nothing to enjoy here, Li Lang couldn't help but ask.
"Waiting for you." Li Heng gave Li Fang a somewhat confusing answer.
"That's it." Li Fang believed it.
Li Heng didn't want to continue talking nonsense with the Third Emperor's younger brother Li Fang. Li Heng made a decision in his heart.
Send the child to Guanyin in the small temple. Liao Lun lived up to his beauty bonus along the way. Even if he came from a good family, this young master of the uncle's house was willing to lower his body and coax people.
Once such a good-looking and gentle aristocratic young man made a low profile, he explained the origin of the Buddha and Bodhisattvas in Daxiangguo Temple and some folk anecdotes along the way.
The four Jia sisters listened with gusto, and from time to time they even praised Mr. Lun in front of them. The impression score of Mr. Lun is rising even more.
"Second brother of the Liao family, you know so much." Jia Liu Niang, a little person, clapped her hands and praised. She said, "You must be a learned and extraordinary person."
Liao Lun watched the little girl praise her while looking at him with admiring eyes. At this moment, Liao Lun felt happy, he got a sense of recognition. It's like eating an ice bowl to relieve the heat in the dog days of summer. It feels so comfortable.
"I'm just explaining some anecdotes. I can't be considered knowledgeable. The sixth sister of the Jia family is too ridiculous." Liao Lun replied modestly.
"Second brother of the Liao family, your explanations along the way are very interesting. You must have read many books. If you are humble and knowledgeable, you will make me feel inferior." Jia Erniang praised Liao Lun when her sixth sister Afterwards, she echoed another reply.
Jia Yuanniang and Jia Sanniang watched from the side as their cousins from the second room went into battle together to praise others. Jia Yuanniang thought that her second sister had praised Liao Lun too much along the way. There were one, two, and three, and it was impossible that the second sister felt that Liao Lun was a good match. However, the second sister had intentions, and Liao Lun was not her marriage partner.
When Mrs. Changwen's uncle was choosing a daughter-in-law, she would definitely not think that the concubine of the second wife of Sui Guogong's residence was worthy of her legitimate son, even the second legitimate son. Because the second uncle's official hat must be too small in the eyes of this lady.
Jia Yuanniang was thinking about her guess. Jia Sanniang simply regards herself as a turtle squatting in the melon field. She just eats melons and watches the show. She doesn't talk too much.
Noon.
The Jia sisters, Liao Lun, Lu Mian and their entourage finished by offering incense and praying for blessings. The journey took a long time. After returning to Jingxinzhai, Jia Sanniang and other juniors presented gifts obtained through prayers from various places.
After Princess Song and the other three elders present took a look at the gifts one by one, they praised the juniors who went back to pray for blessings.
In the meditation room, the elders chatted for a while, and the juniors listened. The time did not wait too long. After some words, Jia Zhao led the four sisters of the Jia family to say goodbye and leave.
After everyone in the Jia family left, Princess Song's eyes fell on her nephew Liao Lun in the flower hall. She asked: "Today Lun'er is accompanying the sisters of the Jia family to burn incense and pray for blessings. What do you think of the three sisters of the Jia family?"
Don't ask anyone else, just ask Sanniang. Liao Lun was not stupid, he had some vague guesses. Liao Lun hurriedly replied: "The daughter of the prince, the bells and the bells are beautiful, and everything is good."
"Look how interesting this child's words are." Concubine Song pointed at her nephew and said to her sister Liao Song: "Sister, I see that your family will soon have a cup of tea as a bride's gift. .”
"With my sister's good words, I can make my wish come true." Ms. Liao Song replied with a happy tone and a smile in her eyes.
In the fifteenth year of Hongwu's reign, on the fifth day of March, the Jia family left Daxiangguo Temple and returned to Suiguogong's mansion. After returning to the mansion, the group first went to Ning'an Hall to say hello to Princess Long'an, an elder.
"How about eating and having fun at Daxiangguo Temple?" Princess Long'an smiled kindly and asked her granddaughters.
"Everything is fine." Jia Yuanniang replied first.
"Very good." Jia Erniang told her eldest sister the same answer.
"There are many Buddhas and Bodhisattvas in the temple, and there are more people offering incense and praying. You can go out for sightseeing, enjoy the scenery, and pray for peace of mind and peace of mind. I especially tried the vegetarian food in the temple. It was very delicious and I praised it very much." Jia Sanniang details You have to express your opinion.
"The vegetarian food is not as good as the food in the house." After Jia Liu Niang refuted the third sister's words, she kept naming a list of dishes with high meat content.
Obviously, in Jia Liu Niang's heart, meat is still delicious. No matter how similar Su Zhai's meat is, it can't fool Jia Liu Niang's little nose and tongue.
"Grandma, the sea of pear flowers in Daxiangguo Temple is so big and beautiful." Jia Liu Niang sipped her saliva, and she became greedy after reporting the names of a bunch of meat dishes.
Jia Liu Niang stretched out her chubby hand to show how big it was. It was so vast that it had no edge. She said: "Next year, grandma will go to enjoy the sea of pear flowers together. It's so big, so beautiful, so beautiful." When I was stuck in the sea of pear flowers and enjoyed the beautiful scenery, all I could see was the fragrance of the flowers. Jia Liu Niang thought it was good after seeing it, and she wanted her grandmother to have a look too.
In Ning'an Hall, there was a funny little pistachio like Jia Liu Niang, who was laughing and talking to Yan Yan for a while.
In the fifteenth year of Hongwu's reign, it was the sixth day of March.
In Tingyu Pavilion, Jia Sanniang had just fed the puppy Fubao and was about to pet the dog. The eldest maid Mo Xiang came into the room and said, "Girl, Ning'an Hall has sent word that you should come."
"Only call me, or should all the sisters go?" Jia Sanniang asked.
"Except for the sixth girl, you, the eldest girl, and the second girl are all going to Ning'an Hall." Mo Xiang replied hurriedly.
Jia Sanniang thought that there must be something going on, but she didn't know how big the relationship was with her?
After she tidied up her appearance and left the main room and stood under the corridor, Jia Sanniang saw her second sister coming out of the east wing.
"Second sister."
"Third sister." The two sisters greeted each other.
After that, Jia Sanniang said with a smile: "Second sister, let's go together."
"Okay." Jia Erniang replied. So the two sisters left Tingyu Pavilion together and went to Ning'an Hall.
After waiting at Ning'an Hall and entering the flower hall, Jia Sanniang saw her eldest sister Yuan Niang chatting with her grandmother about some interesting things at home.
"My granddaughter wishes my grandmother good luck. May my grandma be blessed." Jia Sanniang and her second sister stepped forward to give blessings.
"No need to be polite, get up quickly." Princess Long'an smiled and pointed to the seat next to her, and said: "Sit down."
After sitting down, Jia Sanniang listened to her grandmother who was sitting in the main seat of the flower hall and said, "I have called you three sisters here for an important matter."
The real drama is here.
Jia Sanniang quickly cheered up and prepared to listen carefully to what her grandmother had to say about the important things.
"A new decree has been passed down from the palace, the royal draft is on the eighth day of March. This time, the old method is not used, and quotas are no longer recommended to enter the palace to participate in the election. In the palace of the noble ministers in Kyoto, as long as there is no engagement, all those between the ages of thirteen and seventeen will All ladies must participate in the election." As soon as Princess Long'an finished speaking, the flower hall suddenly became quiet.
