and son

"no!"

Gillian is determined to go.

God knows how many days she has stayed in the palace, mold is almost growing on her body.

And enjoy yourself as early as possible, who will wait until later.

Meng Chuji further tempted: "Not only will I take you to play, but I will buy you whatever you fancy, even a street. You can go back."

"Tch, I don't have anything for the princess, do you want you to buy it for me? No, I'm going."

Ah Jiao hummed disdainfully and turned her head to ignore him.

Meng Chuji looked at the back of her head for a while, and saw that she was determined to follow him, so he said helplessly, "Okay, don't regret it."

Isn't it just multiple people?

Is there anything he can do about her?

Jieshi sneaked away in the middle of the night while she was asleep, but she didn't expect it.

So, the carriage drove all the way, and Gillian arrived at Taiping Temple with him.

I heard that the princess was coming, and the abbot and monks of Taiping Temple came to greet her in person. Although Buddhism is quiet and does not seek power, who in the world is not afraid of imperial power.

Meng Chuji got out of the carriage and performed Buddhist rituals with the abbot. The abbot and the monks led him into the temple and climbed the 99-step ladder, which meant that ninety-nine return to one, returning to the original.

The Taiping Temple is very spectacular, standing on the waist of the peak, the temple is located in a detached place, it really looks like a place of immortals and Buddhas.

The abbot chatted with Meng Chuji one after another, Ajiao was far behind and couldn't move after climbing a few steps, and the soldiers didn't dare to pass her, they were further behind.

Meng Chuji did not hide from Gillian's sight, and took out the decree from the bag and handed it over: "Abbot, please keep it for me."

The abbot hid the decree in the sleeve of his cassock, smiled kindly and said: "The Buddha said fate and cause and effect, I hope the donor can take it back one day."

Meng Chuji was shocked: "Do you know what that is?"

The abbot shook his head lightly: "I don't know, I don't know."

Meng Chuji's expression froze slightly. Although he said he didn't know, he felt that he clearly knew.

At this time, Gillian muttered loudly from behind: "Sister-in-law, sister-in-law, I can't walk anymore."

Meng Chuji turned his head and saw A-Jiao sitting on the ladder, no matter whether it was dirty or not, her head was sweating, she looked limp and weak, and her pretty face was full of grievances.

Meng Chuji raised his eyebrows and said: "Don't come if you want to come, you can't walk, you have to walk the 99 steps by yourself, this is a respect for Buddhism."

The abbot smiled: "Respecting the Buddha, the Buddha is in the heart; if you don't respect the Buddha, all kinds of ceremonies are empty."

Then he turned his head and said to A-Jiao: "The benefactor, why don't you let the monks in the temple help you up."

A-Jiao looked at Meng Chuji, begging for advice. After all, women and men are not to be touched, not even monks. She hoped that Meng Chuji would be more accommodating.

Meng Chuji frowned and was about to call Ah Fu, thinking that Ah Fu was also a man, and all the people present were men except A Jiao, so he said, "I'll carry you."

Although he is also a man, he is her sister-in-law in name anyway.

A Jiao's almond eyes widened, and she said in disbelief: "Sister-in-law, can you memorize me?"

"If you can't carry it on your back, you will eat less in the future."

He is a big man with superb arms, and he can't carry her on his back, so how heavy should she be?

"Okay, okay."

A-Jiao was overjoyed, she was separated from Meng Chuji by seven or eight steps, and rushed up immediately.

Meng Chuji suddenly felt a little regretful, but it was impossible not to do what was promised, so she squatted down and let her come up, A-Jiao was not afraid of crushing him, so she hugged her neck and climbed up, Meng Chuji Picking her up firmly, I heard her whispering in my ear:

"Sister-in-law, you are so powerful, why am I not so strong?"

As she spoke, she lay on her back and played with her hair and his earlobes, which were thin and tender, as if the sun could shine through them.

Meng Chuji's veins twitched, and he stopped him: "Don't move around, if you move around again, I'll put you down and crawl by yourself."

What virtue, both of them like to play with his ears.

Gillian let out a muffled "Oh", but she really didn't move.

Meng Chuji walked up with her on his back, so he didn't have the time to talk to the abbot, but Gillian said to the abbot, "Hey, monk, is the Bodhisattva here really spiritual? Can you bless my grandma get well?"

The abbot didn't mind her speaking casually, and smiled slightly: "The filial piety of the benefactor can touch the world, and I believe that the Bodhisattva can fulfill the wish of the benefactor."

A-Jiao rolled her eyes, and said again: "Then can I ask for marriage here? Let me figure out what kind of person I can marry. If it works, I will ask the prince and brother to build the Taiping Temple and put the Bodhisattva in your temple. All cast into golden bodies."

The abbot asked, "Does the benefactor have someone she likes?"

Gillian replied without hesitation: "I like my sister-in-law who is not hypocritical or exaggerated. She can take me to play and leave me alone. Moreover, the sister-in-law looks better than the prince and brother when she disguises herself as a man. He is like this, not like him, don’t want to.”

The abbot twitched his fingers while listening to her, and after a while, he said in a low voice: "The person the benefactor said is not the one who is destined, but the one who can't get it, but the benefactor, the red luan, is moving, and the marriage is only half a month away. "

"Half a month?" Gillian frowned in dissatisfaction, "You mean I'm going to get married in half a month?"

"The Buddha said, don't say it."

"whispering sound."

Gillian snorted, then grabbed Meng Chuji's collar and said, "Sister-in-law, let's go back, this temple is not working."

Meng Chuji was speechless: "Don't make trouble, we are not here to play, but to pray."

Gillian said sullenly, "But it doesn't work."

Meng Chuji wanted to beat her to death, and said that she was not working in front of the abbot. Fortunately, the abbot had a good temper, but he just laughed and didn't get angry. It can be said that he has a big heart.

Then he criticized her harshly and said: "How do you know if you are working or not? Maybe you will find Mr. Ruyi in half a month. When you come back, why don't you slap yourself in the face?"

Gillian thought about it for a while, and it seemed that it was too early to say anything. If a man like Meng Chuji disguised as a man descended from the sky, she would quickly pack up her things and marry him, and asked her mother to add more dowry. , as happy as her prince and brother.

In the meantime, the 99 ladders are finished.

The gate of the temple is strictly guarded. There was a heavy snowfall before. It seems that some unbehaved monks built a snowman at the gate for fun, making this treasure temple two points lively.

Meng Chuji put Gillian down, and as soon as Gillian's eyes lit up, she rushed towards the snowman, digging out a mouth for the snowman who only had eyes but no nose and mouth, and the snowman suddenly became like a silly mentally handicapped.

A-Jiao was extremely satisfied, she put her fingertips red from touching the snow into Meng Chuji's armpit, and squeezed her whole body towards Meng Chuji's body, saying, "Keep me warm, keep me warm."

Meng Chuji couldn't help but said: "Your prince and brother didn't want to see me well, so did you send you by my side?"

A-Jiao couldn't stop laughing.

After entering the temple, the abbot asked the monks to arrange a wing room and a residence for him. After a fast meal, he went to worship the Bodhisattva in the temple.

There are too many statues of Bodhisattvas, and I can barely recognize a few. I can recognize Avalokitesvara and Wei Tuo, but I can’t recognize the others.

Meng Chuji and Gillian started worshiping from the first one, and the abbot stood aside and performed the Buddha ceremony, and then introduced the life experience of this Bodhisattva, such as what good deeds he had done and how his merits and virtues were perfected to achieve the right fruit.

Don't look at Gillian who felt tired and thought that the vegetarian food was not delicious when she came up, but she was very serious when she worshiped the Bodhisattva, and she kowtowed in a proper manner, which could be seen to be extremely sincere.

Meng Chuji was not as serious as her, and got up after three simple kowtows. After worshiping a hall in this way, the two of them could only rest.

Back in the wing room, Gillian suggested: "Sister-in-law, let's go out and play for a while. I heard that there are some Wancheng around, so let's take a stroll."

Meng Chuji took a sip of tea and refused: "I won't go."

"Sister-in-law, let's just play for a while, the Bodhisattva will not blame us."

Gillian pulled Meng Chuji's sleeve, trying to pull him up from the chair.

Meng Chuji lowered his eyelashes: "A-Jiao, don't touch people casually in the future, you are a princess and you should look like a princess."

Gillian was reprimanded abruptly, and was stunned for a while.

Why does she feel that her dear sister-in-law has been dropped?

He never paid attention to these before.

Meng Chuji raised his eyes, his gaze was very calm: "You will have a husband and son-in-law, you will also have your prince and brother, they will take you to play, if they don't want to, just make a few more troubles, and they will always agree."

Gillian flustered for no reason: "Sister-in-law, what's wrong with you?"

Meng Chuji turned his head and said, "It's nothing."

A-Jiao felt that there was something clear. The current Meng Chuji is completely different from before. The previous Meng Chuji was more playful than her. Even if she didn't want her to be coquettish, he would agree to it. The current Meng Chuji actually scolded her, just like the prince. .

"Sister-in-law, have I made you unhappy? I won't play anymore. It's okay if I stop playing. Don't be angry with me."

Gillian went around to him, squatted in front of him, and shook his hand.

Meng Chuji withdrew his hands and looked straight into her eyes: "You must like someone who likes you, the relationship can be cultivated, and he accommodates you and indulges you to love you deeply, only in this way can you be happy, Li Xiuyi is very good."

Gillian understood and stood up angrily.

"Why did you mention him all of a sudden? I haven't talked to him for many days, and I'm still angry with him. What's so good about him? You and the prince and brother respect him. Why do you all think it's me when we quarrel? It's his fault, he is good at everything, why don't you marry yourself."

Meng Chuji opened his mouth to say something.

Gillian stomped her feet and left: "I won't tell you that I'm going to sleep, I'll sleep by myself."

Meng Chuji watched her go away, put down the teacup, the temperature of the tea wall was already cold.

Then he lay on the bed and covered his face with a pillow.

He thought too much.

How could Gillian like him?

Both of them are women, Gillian probably didn't even think about that.

It's just that he's too scared.

It is enough to owe Pei Jing alone, if he accidentally stole the heart of another girl, how should he deal with himself.

He was destined to go.

A-Jiao stepped out of the wing, and found a novice to prepare a clean wing for her. After the novice led her to the room next to Meng Chuji, she lay down on the bed for a while, tossing and turning irritably.

After a while, she sat up, found a red dress from the baggage that she hadn't packed carefully to catch up with Meng Chuji, and covered her face with the red dress. Thinking of the scene of Meng Chuji disguised as a man that day, she couldn't help but think: Why is Meng Chuji not a man?

If she is a man, let the crown prince give her the title of son-in-law, so that Li Xiuyi won't be entangled.
