Feng Ye watched eagerly from the side. Seeing that she had not moved her pen, he asked curiously: "Why don't you draw?"
Lin Xi said calmly: "My painting is not good-looking."
Feng Ye took the paper kite and said with a smile: "It doesn't matter, my grandmother is good at painting! I'll ask her to help!"
After saying that, he trotted out of the yard.
Texue looked surprised: "Let the Queen Mother draw paper kites for you?"
Lin Xi: "No? If not, I'll draw it myself."
Taxue: "..."
It's not a matter of whether it's possible or not.
The little princes have already run away, forget it.
Feng Ye ran in and saw that the Queen Mother was meeting with several concubines.
After hearing that the young lady from the Duke's Mansion allowed the young prince to come to the Queen Mother to draw paper kites, several concubines disagreed.
This is the Queen Mother Mo Bao!
"The young lady from the Duke's residence is a little ignorant of etiquette." The Taifu's wife scolded her.
Feng Ye glared at her: "You are not allowed to say that about Lin Xi, she is my best friend!" He turned around and dove into the Empress Dowager's arms like a baby, "Grandma, please."
"Okay, okay, the Aijia will paint it for you." She had the last choice for this grandson.
Under the watchful eyes of several concubines, the Queen Mother picked up a pen and began to draw a paper kite.
I first drew a few lotus leaves and lotus flowers, but when I saw that the colors were a little dull, I added a few red fish.
"Thank you, grandma. Can grandma fly a kite with her grandson?" Feng Ye asked expectantly.
The weather is nice today and it would be nice to go for a walk outside. The Queen Mother couldn't bear to refuse those wet eyes.
Thinking that the paper kite had its own contribution today, he nodded in agreement.
The fateful woman who was left in the house was at a loss as to what the capabilities of the young lady from the Duke's Mansion were.
It’s okay for the little prince to be so protective, but the queen mother is so tolerant of her?
You must know that the Queen Mother has high attainments in calligraphy and painting, and is highly praised by today's literati.
Usually calligraphy treasures are framed by good students, and whoever gets them is a great honor.
Who would have thought that the Queen Mother's precious calligraphy would be sent to heaven today?
——
Lin Xi and Feng Ye held the spool together and watched the kite flying higher and higher.
Ta Xue was very vigilant, but fortunately the Queen Mother only said a word from time to time.
Didn't embarrass the eldest lady.
It was almost time for lunch, and Lin Xi tightened the thread little by little.
Naturally, the paper kite painted by the Queen Mother must be kept well.
The Queen Mother went back first, changed her clothes and came out, looking at Lin Xi squatting and talking to Feng Ye.
She gestured to the palace maid, wanting to hear what the two people had to say.
Why does the little prince like her so much?
Lin Xi touched Feng Ye's head: "It's best to be at your age. It won't be fun if you get older."
Feng Ye: "Why did you say that?"
Lin Xi: "The Queen Mother brought you to the palace to raise you in the hope that you would be safe. However, the concubines in the palace have too many thoughts. If you grow up surrounded by them, you won't be cute in a few years."
Feng Ye didn't seem to understand. He held Lin Xi's hand and said with a smile: "Apart from the emperor's grandmother, Lin Xi, you are the best to me, and I like you second."
Lin Xi: "Really? I like you too. I hope you can always be carefree, safe and never have any worries."
Feng Ye, who had been well protected since childhood, nodded in understanding.
When the Queen Mother heard these words, her heart ached. She only had a biological daughter under her knees.
Princess Yun'an married Marquis Xuanping at the age of fifteen. She died in childbirth a year later, leaving only a frail and sick child.
Marquis Xuanping renewed his marriage just after his filial piety, married his cousin who was also from a high family, and soon had two more sons.
Climbing to the position of Queen Mother, she has never seen any tricks.
Marquis Xuanping and his wife were childhood sweethearts, their love was strong, and they also had their own children...
Feng Ye was both a small county king and the crown prince of Xuanping Hou.
For the sake of his position as the heir apparent, he would inevitably be plotted against.
The Queen Mother then took her grandson into her lap and raised her, but the palace was full of twists and turns.
This young lady from the Duke's Mansion fell in love with Feng Ye, and it was rare that she truly cared about him as much as she did.
The Queen Mother was silent for a long time before she came out.
Lin Xi let go of Feng Ye and stood up to salute.
Although she had already heard the footsteps.
She really liked Feng Ye, such a cute and polite child. It was a pity that she was led astray by those women in the palace who were obsessed with fighting.
She said this with a clear conscience, why couldn't she intentionally let the Queen Mother hear it?
The Queen Mother looked at the girl in front of her, and she felt that her eyes were closed. She said with a kind face: "Let's go, you and the Ai family and the little prince will have dinner together."
After a pause, she thought for a while and then said, "The Ai family knows that you don't like vegetarian food. You are inevitably greedy when you are young. Today you are eating the same food as the little prince."
Feng Ye is the only one in the temple who can eat meat.
Lin Xi: "Thank you, Queen Mother."
You are more generous than the queen! More powerful, richer, and easier to talk to!
After learning the news, in order to please the Queen Mother, the wife who had been vegetarian for a long time in the temple became uneasy.
Why is this?
Zhao Zhi was even more confused. Why? She was also very young!
The author has something to say:
Lin Xi: Wait a minute, my thighs will get tight soon.
Brother: ...while I’m not here, right?
Chapter 21
◎Everyone is here◎
The peaceful days passed quickly, and it had been half a month since Lin Xi came to Baiyun Temple to worship Buddha.
The date she agreed with Lu Yan was getting closer and closer.
She has made it clear to the Queen Mother and will be returning soon.
Lin Xi: "I can't believe that I gained a little weight when I came to the temple to clean up my body."
Ta Xue said at a loss for words: "Miss, you think about eating every day, and you never skip a meal."
Lin Xi: "..."
Well, this girl is becoming more and more rude in trying to make trouble.
This afternoon, the temple was very lively.
Master Huaiyue from Yuyun Temple in the city came to pay homage to the abbot.
This is not surprising, he is a close disciple of Master Baichen, the abbot.
Buddhism flourished in the Zhou Dynasty. A few years ago, the emperor considered that Baiyu Temple was too far away, so he ordered people to build Yuyun Temple in the city.
Nowadays, Yuyun Temple is full of incense, and there is an endless stream of people coming in and out every day. Some people even travel thousands of miles just to see Zen Master Huaiyue and pay homage to the light of the Buddha.
Not to mention that the emperor often summoned Master Huaiyue to the palace, not only to discuss Buddhist scriptures, but sometimes to debate government affairs with him.
Lin Xi walked in from outside and met Huaiyue standing in the distance.
He is quite tall, wearing a purple cassock and a silver fish bag, with a dragon-like and phoenix-like appearance, and a calm and ascetic expression.
Lin Xi didn't take it seriously. Monks pay attention to the purity of the six sense organs, but the person in front of him made him unable to see through it.
Just like walking in the mortal world by observing the precepts.
Otherwise, there are so many monks in the world, why would he catch the emperor's eye?
Lin Xi clasped his hands together and said seriously: "I am confused, Master, can you answer it for me?"
"The female donor is polite." Huaiyue returned the gift.
The two people changed places and came to Lin Xi's yard.
It's clean and undisturbed here.
Lin Xi got straight to the point: "It has only been ten years since I became an enke. Those who are not from aristocratic families may not be able to become a fifth-rank official in the capital when they are old. The master took a shortcut and participated in politics as a monk. In front of His Majesty, he is no better than those senior officials." A thief is light in weight.”
Therefore, it is said that this person is not stained with the world on the outside, but is stained with all the worldly things on the inside.
Huaiyue smiled like a bright moon: "On the Buddha's birthday, the donor pretended to be lame and asked the pilgrims to take the initiative to avoid a road. He was as quick and resourceful as before."
Lin Xi: "You are also very good at acting while sitting high on the meditation platform. I can tell at a glance that you are acting."
Huaiyue didn't take it seriously: "The female donor has always had a high level of understanding."
The two had known each other many years ago, and they were both in a mess at the time.
Now we meet again, one is a living eminent monk and the other is the young lady from the Duke's residence.
Many years ago, they went to the temple's wishing fountain together at night and stole money several times.
