It was already the third day that Jiang Chen came into this world, and what happened every day left him with lingering fears.

After meeting Zhao Hu who came back from the border today, he suddenly had the idea of ​​going to the border to find his grandfather.

He said to Ah Fu who was lying next to him:

"Afu, I want to take a trip to Xiliang."

Ah Fu turned over and said to him:

"Sir, do you want to go to the border to inquire about General Li? Then do you think General Li will really surrender to Xiliang as the court said?"

Jiang Chen put his hands behind his head, glanced at him sideways and said:

"Ah Fu, in your mind, you actually thought that the general would surrender to the Xiliang people?"

Ah Fu climbed up on his side.He said to Jiang Chen:

"This is the crime the imperial court charged the general. I have been doubting this issue. Of course I don't hope that the general will surrender to the enemy. If the general and the young general are still alive, if they know that the entire Li family has been executed by the emperor, , the lives of so many close relatives were lost because of them. How can they bear this cruel fact? For them, every day of their lives is torture. Their hearts should How sad it is. As long as the general lives, he has surrendered to the enemy, and I can accept this fact."

When Ah Fu said this, a bloody scene appeared in Jiang Chen's mind.

She finally understood the painful situation of her mother crying every day. If she hadn't been reluctant to let him go and have a stupid son, she might have left this world long ago.

He said to Afu;

"Is there any famous temple near the capital?"

Ah Fu looked at him puzzled and said:

"Master, why are you looking for a temple?"

Jiang Chen said to him:

"I want to go there to pray for the souls of the Li family who have died. This can be considered as a little contribution from a junior like me."

Ah Fu thought for a moment and said immediately:

"Young master, there is a White Horse Temple more than ten miles away from the capital. The incense there is the most prosperous. There is an endless stream of believers who go there to worship every day. Why don't we go there tomorrow to transcend. Once there, we just need to pay tribute to the temple. Just give some incense money and write the names of your loved ones on it, and the monks in the temple can help those relatives to save their souls."

After Jiang Chen heard this, he said to Ah Fu:

"Okay, then we'll go there tomorrow. You can go to bed early and we'll leave early tomorrow."

Ah Fu said to Jiang Chen:

"Master, do you want to tell Madam about our trip?"

Jiang Chen said:

"It's such a long journey, and my mother is not in good health, so let's not tell her for the time being."

Ah Fu said to Jiang Chen:

"My wife usually worships at home every day. In fact, she should be the most sad one. Losing so many relatives all at once, who can bear this blow?"

The two of them didn't talk all night. The next day, they got up early and went straight to the White Horse Temple.

Jiang Chen is dressed in plain clothes, with a slim and tall figure, and a temperament as noble and elegant as a orchid or jade tree.He stood out from the crowd like a chicken, very abrupt.

These ordinary men and women who went to White Horse Temple to burn incense and worship Buddha slowly walked past him. His unique temperament that was incompatible with these people attracted people's attention from time to time.

Just as they walked through the lush tree-lined avenues and walked up the stairs, they saw the magnificent temples and temples in the distance, with antique buildings, apricot-yellow courtyard walls, blue-gray temple ridges, and pale green towering ancient trees. In the rose-red morning glow, it looks solemn and solemn.

The master and the servant slowly entered the temple. The hall was crowded with people. People knelt on the futons devoutly and silently expressed their wishes and appeals to the gods above, hoping to use their piety and faith to gain the Buddha's blessing. bless.

Ah Fu said to Jiang Chen:

"Sir, you take a stroll here first. I'll give the sesame oil money to the master in front and ask them to give Chaodu Chaodu according to the name on the list."

Jiang Chen waved his hand to Ah Fu and asked him to do his work. He had almost never been to this ancient temple to offer incense before.I feel like everything is so interesting and fresh.

At this moment, a middle-aged lady was seen walking towards the main hall, accompanied by two servants.

Behind her came a master and a servant, two young women.Then he walked towards the main hall.

The woman suddenly raised her head and saw Jiang Chen standing not far away, admiring the mural again.Her eyes were suddenly attracted by the man in front of her.

Her eyes didn't move away from Jiang Chen's face for a long time. The little girl next to her gently tugged on her butt, as if to remind her.said:

"Miss, ma'am."

The little girl's cry seemed to bring back the woman's loss of composure.

She came back to her senses and said to the little girl next to her:

"What did you ask me to do?"

The little girl smiled and said softly to her:

"Miss, I also saw a charming young man over there, but I don't know who he is from that family. Do you want me to go up and ask him?"

The woman nudged the little girl. At this moment, the lady in front shouted to the girl behind:

"Yan'er, Xiaodie, why are you so slow? Master is waiting for us."

The woman named Yan'er looked at Jiang Chen again and was pulled away by the little maid.

Jiang Chen saw the woman frequently paying attention to him, and was also attracted by her eyes.

He casually looked at the various murals on the wall, waiting for Ah Fu to come back after finishing his work.

I heard a young monk in front of me reporting the amount of sesame oil money, while another monk was writing notes at his desk.

"Mother Liu Cui of the Duke Protector's Palace, 50 taels of sesame oil money."

The sound was neither far nor near, it just passed through the crowd and flew into Jiang Chen's ears.

After Jiang Chen heard this, he looked back at the woman in surprise.What a coincidence. The woman in front of him was Liu Hanyan, who had been engaged to him since childhood.

Although he has never met her, her name is very familiar to him.

Thinking about what Ah Fu told him yesterday, he knew that Liu Hanyan was not willing to marry Jiang Chen.

I saw a mother and daughter kneeling on the futon, with their hands clasped together, praying to the statue above.

Jiang Chen, who was not far from her, could clearly hear the prayers in Cui's mouth.

It turns out that mother and daughter came here to burn incense, hoping that the gods would bless them and cancel the marriage smoothly, so that their daughter could choose a better husband.

Thinking of this, he even felt a little funny.He wanted to leave here quickly, so he walked towards the door.

Liu Hanyan's eyes glanced at Jiang Chen from time to time until he saw him walking out of the door.
