Wrong Changhuan

In the southwest of Jiangdong City, the Dongping Hou Mansion stands facing the street, with a rich gate in the north and green mountains in the south.

At this time, accompanied by Chen Siqi's brother and sister, the princess went out to greet her in person. Behind her, the butler and a few servants had been waiting at the door for a long time.

More and more people around stopped to watch, whispering to each other from time to time, discussing the noble atmosphere of the princess, and also discussing which family has such a big battle, and the Hou Mansion treats them so favorably.

Before noon, when Xie's carriage arrived, Xie Tianci and Wen Tingzhao dismounted first, greeted the princess, and exchanged greetings with the elder brothers and sisters.

The son's eyes circled around the carriage workshop, and until Chang Huan poked his head out of the first carriage, his eyes found the target, and his eyes seemed to be glued to her, unable to move away.

Chang Huan got out of the car with the help of Ye Rong, then turned around to help Xie Baitang who got out of the car, and then looked around lively, but he didn't see the familiar white figure, and felt a little disappointed.

Xie Baitang saw the princess and hurriedly greeted Chang Huan to come forward.

Murong Bing came forward with Chen Sining's support, and Chen Sining said first, "Aunt Tang, mother always misses you several times every day, if you don't come, she will go to the island to see you in person."

Murong Bing took Xie Baitang's hand and said with a smile, "I've been looking forward to your coming, but today I finally came. Amitabha--" the expressions were all intimate.

Xie Baitang said with a smile, "Xiao Nuan, come and meet the Princess—"

Chang Huan looked at this elegant-looking, gentle middle-aged woman. The nine phoenix Asahi hairpin on her head, red jade and golden steps set off her nobility. She was similar to Chen Sining, but she didn't have the slightest airs. --"

Murong Bing hurriedly supported her arm, looked her up and down affectionately, and said with a smile, "I have injuries on my body, so there is no need to be polite. I heard Qi'er talk about you earlier, and when I saw you today, it really hurts me." Said Then he and Xie Baitang looked at each other tacitly and smiled, and said, "According to my friendship with your mother, you should call me Aunt Bing."

Chang Huan glanced at Xie Baitang, seeing her smiling and acquiescing, he called softly, "Hi Aunt Bing--"

Murong Bing smiled and said, "Okay--ok--"

At this time, Xie Tiandong, Xie Tianshu and others also saluted the princess.

The prince said, "It's cold outside, mother and Aunt Tang should go in first." Then he looked at Chang Huan again, and greeted him a little cautiously, "Sister Xiaonuan, you've worked hard all the way."

Chang Huan nodded in greeting, which was a response.

Murong Bing said, "Blame me, I was happy for a while, but I forgot that you all took the bus all the way, and it was hard work. Let's go in. It just so happens that Aji sent people to deliver good tea from the southwest as a tribute recently. I invite you to taste it together." Holding Xie Baitang with his left hand and Chang Huan with his right hand, he entered the gate of the mansion.

Behind him, Xie Tianshu shot Chang Huan a resentful gaze, but she didn't know it.

Behind the corner of the north-south alley, [-] meters to the west of the gate of Hou's Mansion, Yang Yan and An Cuo watched the scene, saw everyone entering the gate of the mansion, and turned their figures back into the alley.

Yang Yan leaned against the wall, breathed a sigh of relief, and said, "They don't know Chang Huan's identity, so it should be fine." After a pause, he frowned, "How did you tell her then?"

An made a mistake, "I just said that the person who followed her came from the Hou Mansion."

Yang Yan forgot to look out again, and said, "That's good! If she asks, you can tell her directly, and it's okay. Others, don't need to say more."

"Maybe, she has heard about the early years of the Lin family." An Cuo thought for a while, "If she just hid her identity because she came to the Hou's mansion, you don't have to be so careful. What are you worried about? An Cuo paused, doubts arose, and he whispered, "Yang Yan, do you still have something to hide from her? Or is this matter not only about the Dongping Hou Mansion, but also...Jiangxia King? "

"Why do you ask that?" Yang Yan looked uncomfortable, as if he had been poked into his heart, and said, "Hou's mansion is not a place to stay for a long time, you tell her to be careful." He paused and looked directly at An Cuo , said with a serious face, "An Cuo, I know that Chang Huan likes you, and you really care about her, so I will only say this once, for her good, and for your future... Regarding Murong Ji...don't let him get close to Chang Huan."

"Why?" An Cuo was puzzled.

"Why are there so many reasons? Don't you just say it? Even though those spies are in the Marquis Mansion, they obey Murong Ji's orders. But anyone who gets involved with Murong Ji will definitely have bad things."

An Cuo looked at Yang Yan's impatience, and knew that there must be some reason behind it that she didn't know. Although she still had doubts in her heart, she believed Yang Yan's words and said, "I see."

Who is Murong Ji, An Cuo must have heard of it.He was able to be the regent, and no one in Nan'an country could surpass him. Even the emperor would call him brother emperor and give him seven points of face.This kind of person can say the same thing, turning his hands into clouds and his hands into rain. Lin Yun, the loyal military general at that time, could be regarded as a person who could shake the government and the opposition. Wasn't it because of his suggestion that he was stationed far away on the border, and in the end the city was destroyed and people died. Lin Yun The general and his wife died, but they ended up with no bones left. Lin Yuer and his brother only escaped by luck.And they are also Chang Huan's relatives.

If someone like Murong Ji had deep thoughts and plans, if Chang Huan met him, he would definitely not be his match.If Yang Yan is concerned about this, it should be.

An made a mistake, "Yang Yan, I believe in you. I won't let her take risks."

Yang Yan looked at An Cuo, and said after a long time, "Chang Huan, I didn't see the wrong person... I hope, I didn't see the wrong person either."

The Buddhist hall next to the main hall of Dongpinghou Mansion.

Chang Huan followed Xie Baitang all the way here, and Chen Siqi took everyone else to the front hall to drink tea.

After Murong Bing came into the room, he offered incense first, and Chang Huan and Xie Baitang followed suit, prostrating.

Chang Huan didn't believe in these things.

When she was ten years old, an old monk came to Anpingtang to beg for alms and recited the Heart Sutra. On the spur of the moment, Chang Huan recited the Heart Sutra verbatim.

The Heart Sutra is short, only a hundred words.Chang Huan just had nothing to do, and wanted to tease the old monk, but he didn't want the old monk to drag her into wanting her to become a monk, saying that she had a predestined relationship with Buddhism, and had such wisdom and blessings, which are rare in the world , but was stopped by Lin Xun and Yang Yan, and finally sent a lot of money away, and the old monk left reluctantly.

After Murong Bing saluted, with slightly frowned eyebrows, he said to the nanny behind him, "Bring it up." The nanny brought a purple lacquered wooden plate enshrined in front of the Buddha to Chang Huan, and on it was covered with a There is a layer of yellow brocade, and a red agate bracelet is placed in the middle of the brocade.

Murong Bing said warmly, "I don't know what to give as a gift for the meeting. A few days ago, the Queen Mother sent someone to send a pair of bracelets as a tribute from the Western Regions. I enshrined them for a few days. One was given to Ning'er, and this one will be given to you. .”

Chang Huan didn't know whether to accept it, but Xie Baitang smiled and nodded, saying, "This is her blessing."

Ye Rong stepped forward to pick up the tray, Chang Huan thanked again, followed them out of the Buddhist hall, entered the small hall outside the Buddhist hall, and took a seat next to Xie Baitang.

Compared with the Buddhist hall, this small hall is much simpler.At this time, the charcoal stove has been fired, and the house is warm.

The servant girl served the tea, Xie Baitang looked at the tea soup, took another sip and said, "The taste is full-bodied, with a lingering fragrance, it really is a good tea."

Hearing so, Chang Huan also tasted it, it was really good.

Murong Bing smiled and said, "Atang Ruoxi, take some back when you leave, and say it was offered by Lincang." As he spoke, he winked at the nanny beside him, as a request.

Xie Baitang said with a sly smile, "It's disrespectful, so I'll thank you first, Bing'er." He raised his glass and took another sip, still wanting more.

Chang Huan has never seen Xie Baitang have such a playful look, it is different from what she has seen before.The current Xie Baitang's happiness is beyond words, without any constraints.If she had put on a layer of caution when getting along with outsiders in Xiaoyao Island, but now she is relaxed like never before.

Chang Huan was relieved, and looked at the large piece of Murong Bing wearing a rosary in his hand, and said, "Aunt Bing believes in the Bodhisattva Dharma and is compassionate, so there will be good rewards." She was curious, Xie Baitang, a person who encounters evil and stops evil, But he was able to become friends with such a compassionate person for many years.This fate is really amazing.

Murong Bing said, "Amitabha --" said with clasped hands together in salute, and said with a smile, "Don't ask for good rewards, just ask for peace of mind, that's all right now."

Chang Huan agreed, "If you feel at ease, you will be at ease."

Murong Bing looked at Xie Baitang and smiled, then looked at Chang Huan and said, "Then do you know that there is a cloud in Buddhism, form is not different from emptiness, emptiness is not different from form, form is emptiness, emptiness is form, what's the explanation?"

Chang Huan said, "Everything is like a dream."

Xie Baitang said, "Since everything is empty, why bother pursuing this emptiness?!"

Chang Huan explained warmly, "The emptiness mentioned by the Buddhists does not refer to nothingness, but to the changes of all phases seen by the eyes, and there is no eternal body. Just like the teacup I saw today, it may be broken tomorrow. Return to dust. Not nothingness, but no eternity."

Murong Bing's eyes lit up, he smiled and nodded, but he didn't speak.

Xie Baitang suddenly realized, and said, "So that's the case, it's the first time I've heard of such a solution, and now that I think about it, it's also true."

Murong Bing joked, "Usually I advise you not to be obsessed, but you can't listen to half a sentence. Right now, you have an epiphany fast enough. It seems that it's not that you can't listen, but that there is no right person who said—" While talking, he took a sip of tea, looked at the two with a smile, and said, "Xiao Nuan, have you heard of Buddhism before?"

Chang Huan lowered his head and said humbly, "I just read the Buddhist scriptures occasionally, what I said just now is just my superficial knowledge, the Dharma is so profound, I made Aunt Bing laugh--"

Murong Bing said with a smile, "It's rare that you have such an opinion at such a young age." After saying this, he felt more love for the person in front of him.

Xie Baitang said, "I don't understand Buddhism, but I do understand detoxification. I recently made a new prescription for the old man, you can try it." Ye Rong took out a piece of paper from her sleeve and handed it over.

The nanny on the side took it.

Murong Bing said, "Father was still talking about you the day before yesterday, saying that you haven't come for a long time."

Chang Huan just thought that the old man was referring to Old Prince Jiang Xia?Is that the regent's father?Is he poisoned?Thinking about this, I became curious.

But as soon as Murong Bing finished speaking, there was a commotion outside, and the nurse at the side went out, returned after a while, leaned over and said, "Master Zhipei, someone outside is looking for Master Zhipei, saying that someone has been murdered." Evil. Slaves throw them out now--"

Murong Bing said, "I usually teach you to be merciful, why have you forgotten...Since you are here to find Master Zhibei, you go and invite him." He turned his head and said, "Let's go and have a look too."

Chang Huan went out with Xie Baitang and Murong Bing.
