Chapter 326 Marriage
"Dignified guest?"
"Ah."
"Then I will withdraw first, so as not to disturb the master and the distinguished guest."
"Go ahead, don't forget today's homework. I will check it after the guests leave."
Master Huici had a kind face, but the words he said sounded very cruel in the ears of his disciple.
The little monk, who originally thought he had escaped, hung his round head and said, "Yes, Master."
If I were full of vitality just now, now I feel like I have lost all hope.
Seeing him retreat listlessly, Master Huici smiled and shook his head.
As soon as Shen Li and Pei Yu entered the yard, they saw a little monk about four or five years old, with his big round head drooping and delicate eyebrows that could not be ignored.
At this moment, he was pouting, opening and closing the team, and no one knew what he was muttering.
"Senior brother."
He first bowed to the novice monk who was leading the way, and then looked at Shen Li and Pei Yu.
These are the distinguished guests that Master mentioned. They are both so good-looking!
"Kong Shi, is Master Huici in there? There are two distinguished guests who want to see him."
"Yes, Brother, the master is already waiting. I'm going to do my homework first."
"Okay," he nodded to Kong Shi, then made a gesture of invitation to Shen Li and Pei Yu.
Soon the two of them sat opposite Master Huici. Huici poured two cups of tea and pushed them in front of them. "Your Majesty, it's a rare opportunity for you to come here. How about trying my tea?"
"Thank you."
"This girl can also have a taste."
"Okay, thank you."
Shen Li was not surprised that he could see through her female body. Master Huici was about fifty years old and had met many people, so it was not surprising that he could tell the difference between men and women.
After they finished a cup of tea, Huici asked, "Prince Jingnan is not here to chat with me this time, right? I guess he is here for marriage. Am I right?"
Pei Yu put down the teacup, "Master, your guess is correct. I would like to ask you to calculate the fate between you and A-Li."
Huici stroked the white beard on his chin and said, "Prince Jingnan wants to ask about marriage, so let me ask you, if I calculate that there is no fate between you two, or there is no fate, what will you do?"
Pei Yu's expression did not change, and he continued to smile. "It's nothing. Before I met Ah Li, I didn't believe in the word fate. Now that I have met her, it is fate."
"Hahaha, you are indeed the decisive King Jingnan. Your ideas are different from others. If that's the case, why do you still want to settle the score?"
Pei Yu did not comment on his words, "A-Li is new here, so I brought her here to play for a while. As for the marriage, it's just a side note."
"I see. Then please tell me your birth dates and I will calculate them for you."
There are prepared pens, ink, paper and inkstone on the table, and there is also a charcoal basin in the room, so the ink has not solidified and you just need to pick up the pen and write.
Shen Li also looked up and wrote down her birth date. Hers was the same as Shen Li's, so she didn't hesitate when she started writing.
Huici looked at the two pieces of paper on the table, lowered her head and calculated for a while, then looked up at the two of them and said only one sentence: "The bond between King Jingnan and this girl is very deep."
Shen Li and Pei Yu both nodded, obviously understanding what he meant.
Huici said again: "Your Majesty, it's rare that you have time to come here. How about we have a chat?"
Pei Yu looked at Shen Li, "A Li?"
"You play chess with the master, I'm going to go for a walk outside."
"Don't go too far, ask a young master to lead the way for you."
"Ah."
After coming out, Shen Li did call a young master and asked him where the best scenery was in Putuo Temple. He pointed in a direction and Shen Li went there alone.
There is a path leading directly to the back mountain. The fallen snow on the path has been swept away. Due to the cold weather recently, few people come here. Both sides are filled with white fallen snow, and the scenery is really nice with the snow dotted on the trees.
After walking for a while, I found a few girls in front of me. They seemed to be arguing with each other and almost started fighting.
Shen Li ignored them. When she approached, the two groups of people who were quarreling had already gone their separate ways. Shen Li had good hearing, so even though they were far away, she could still hear the conversation between the master and servant in front of her.
"Miss, you are the fiancée of the King of Yan. How dare a cousin like her bully you!"
"I think she is just coveting the position of Princess Yan. She had to bring you all the way here from the capital. She has bad intentions!"
"Okay, Xiaoyu, we are outside now. It would be bad if other people heard what we said."
"Yes, ma'am."
Xiaoyu was still a little indignant. Her young lady was a lady from a noble family and had never suffered such a hardship. She had a carriage when she went out on weekdays and a charcoal fire in her bedroom in winter. Now here, nothing was as good as in the capital. The young lady had never been to such a bitter and cold place.
"Miss, are we really going to go up there? What if Miss Mo is lying?"
"No, Xiaoyu, I've asked around, this temple has great marriages, it would be even better if we hang this marriage rope under the big tree on the top of the mountain."
Xiaoyu's face was full of anxiety, "Miss, this is just hearsay, what if it's not true?"
Miss He said calmly, "Xiao Yu, now the King of Yan and the Queen already know about this matter. No matter what the purpose is, I, your young lady, will do this, and I will do it perfectly. Do you understand?"
Xiaoyu's face was full of distress, "I understand, Miss, Xiaoyu will accompany you."
After hearing this, Shen Li understood the dirty deeds between the noble families more clearly. Even these delicate young ladies would run to this bitter cold place for such a small matter. It was really...
I don’t know what to say!
Shen Li did not go up the mountain because they would definitely meet each other there and she did not want to get involved in their affairs.
There is a pavilion halfway up the mountain, from which you can see the scenery below the mountain. Gazing from the pavilion into the distance, everywhere you look is covered with heavy snow, and all you can see is a stretch of endless mountains.
Thinking that the time was almost up, he walked down the mountain. In the Zen room, the chess game between Pei Yu and Hui Ci was nearing its end, and in the end Pei Yu narrowly won by one piece.
"The prince's chess skills are still so impressive."
"The master's isn't bad either."
When he played chess with others in the past, he rarely had to spend so much time, and Master Huici's chess skills were also top-notch.
Soon, Shen Li came back. When Pei Yu walked out of the meditation room with her, he heard Hui Ci whisper: "Amitabha, Buddha saves those who are destined to be saved, and those who are destined to be saved should not be missed."
If you miss it, it means you are not destined to be together.
"Thank you, Master."
Pei Yu and Shen Li strolled around Putuo Temple for a while before going down the mountain and going home.
"Ah Yu, have you known Master Huici before?"
"Well, Master Huici used to be in Mount Putuo. He was in the Ciguang Temple in the capital. At that time, I lit a long-burning lamp for my mother in the temple, and that's how I got to know him."
"I see. Next time we go to the capital, can you take me to visit Ciguang Temple?"
