Seeing what Concubine De said, Chu Yu nodded immediately.
"Mom, don't worry."
Originally, she didn't mean to offend. How could she be so ignorant to such an old grandfather?
But she felt that the world had deified that master.
Maybe the master will also feel very tired.
The carriage drove for nearly an hour before arriving at the destination.
The person who came to greet them was a young monk who looked very smart.
After greeting everyone, he led them into the temple together.
When you enter the temple, you will see the huge Buddha statue several feet high.
The Buddha statue has attained the golden body and is looking at everyone with his compassionate eyes.
Chu Yu really felt the power of faith at this moment.
Although she didn't ask for anything at the moment, she followed the example of others and clasped her hands together and recited a few words of peace and peace.
Then she subconsciously wanted to stand up, but the people around her, including the Queen Mother and Concubine De, were all kneeling.
They all put their hands together, lowered their heads piously, and closed their eyes. What are they praying for?
Seeing this, Chu Yu felt a little embarrassed. It was too different, and she knelt down along with everyone else.
…
Wang Family Courtyard.
"If you have nothing to do, please step back, boss, you guys will stay."
Emperor Kangxi waved to several ministers.
After a while, the ministers all retreated.
There are only a few brothers left.
Emperor Kangxi did not speak to them, but looked at Liang Jiugong beside him and asked: "The Queen Mother should have arrived at Qiling Temple now, right?"
Liang Jiugong nodded immediately: "I've been gone for a while. Counting the time, I should have arrived not long ago."
Emperor Kangxi nodded: "Prepare your horses."
Then he turned back to the brothers and said, "I will take you to Qiling Temple to have a look."
Speaking of which, Emperor Kangxi wanted to pick up the Queen Mother and Concubine De on the one hand, and on the other hand, he really wanted to see what Qiling Temple looked like now.
Qiling Temple, formerly known as Daming Temple, had many believers who supported the Ming Dynasty.
Furthermore, Emperor Kangxi really attached great importance to Yangzhou.
Yangzhou ten days...
It was a hurdle that Emperor Kangxi couldn't get over.
So many subjects...
Emperor Kangxi felt very sad every time he thought about it.
After so long, everyone in the world has almost forgotten this incident.
However, as a person in power, he always remembers it clearly.
He wants to warn himself not to make the same mistakes as his predecessors.
Likewise, he felt that as a Manchu, he would feel this way in his heart.
What about the people in Yangzhou?
What if there is still someone who remembers what happened?
For all people in the world, killing is always the last solution to the problem.
He, Aixinjueluo Xuanye, wanted all his subjects to live a prosperous life.
He wants his subjects to know.
Our Qing Dynasty is much stronger than the corrupt Ming Dynasty.
When future generations are told that they are people of the Qing Dynasty, they must hold their heads high.
"Huang Ama, please go call a team of guards?"
After listening to Kangxi's words, the eldest brother immediately cupped his fists and said.
Emperor Kangxi thought for a moment and nodded: "Go ahead and let the guards dress casually and blend in with the crowd."
"Yes!" The eldest brother agreed with his fists clasped, and then quickly walked out of the yard.
An hour and a half later, Emperor Kangxi found Chu Yu and his party in the Zen room in the backyard.
"Why is the emperor here?"
As soon as the Queen Mother saw Emperor Kangxi, she smiled so much that a deep crease appeared at the end of her eyes.
"Mom, you'd better call your son by his name. You went out alone and your son was a little worried, so I brought them here to have a look."
Emperor Kangxi smiled gently and respectfully.
"Okay, okay, thank you for your hard work. This is the end of my worship, why don't you go back now?"
The Queen Mother did not want to delay Emperor Kangxi's affairs.
I originally wanted to have some snacks here and then listen to the master talk about Buddhism.
But seeing him coming to pick her up like this, the Queen Mother was a little reluctant to leave, but compared to what happened to Emperor Kangxi, hers was nothing worth mentioning.
Emperor Kangxi smiled: "Since you have arrived at Qiling Temple, you will stay here for one night.
Tomorrow, my son will take you around Yangzhou City happily."
As he said this, Emperor Kangxi glanced at Concubine De subconsciously.
Concubine De was stunned for a moment, then lowered her head.
Wasn't that what he said when she said she wanted to have a good time in Yangzhou City?
"This...isn't good, you still have official duties..."
The Queen Mother was somewhat moved after hearing what Emperor Kangxi said.
One night in this temple tree can cleanse your whole body and mind.
She likes places like this.
It's just that they have to stay outside, which is really inconvenient.
Besides, it would delay Emperor Kangxi's political affairs, so she hesitated.
When Emperor Kangxi saw the Queen Mother's appearance, he immediately helped her to sit down at the table.
"Mother, my son will make the decision for you. He will stay in this temple for one night today and then go back tomorrow."
Emperor Kangxi naturally knew the Queen Mother.
The Queen Mother was not willing to refuse Emperor Kangxi's kindness, so she smiled and nodded.
But Concubine De frowned slightly at this moment.
For some reason, she felt a little flustered.
I vaguely felt that it was inappropriate to stay in Qiling Temple at night.
There seemed to be something, and she had gradually touched the edge, but she just couldn't string everything together.
At that moment, she wanted to persuade them to go back directly, but seeing the smiles on the faces of the Queen Mother and Emperor Kangxi, she didn't know what kind of reason she could use to persuade these people to go back.
After hesitating for a long time, I finally gave up.
It's okay, it should be okay, I have brought so many guards here, even if there are assassins, I can handle them.
It's okay, it must be okay.
She comforted herself like this.
But I can't let go of my heart.
No matter what she did next, Concubine De seemed a little distracted.
The people around me are all human beings, so naturally they can see it.
When the Queen Mother saw Concubine De's appearance, she immediately said to the crowd:
"You all should go out and have a look. The Ai family has invited Master Huiming to come over and give lectures to the Ai family. I think he will be here soon."
After saying this, he saw an old man with white hair and beard.
"Amitabha, hello all donors."
The old monk nodded and smiled along with everyone with a kind look on his face.
When the Queen Mother saw him, she immediately stood up and greeted him: "Master Huiming, I have long admired your name, and I take the liberty of disturbing you."
Although Master Huiming is not as good as Master Huicong, he is still somewhat famous.
The Queen Mother was very happy to see him now.
After hearing the Queen Mother's words, Master Huiming lowered his head slightly and said, "Donor, you are devoted to the Buddha. It is my honor to have a discussion with you."
The Queen Mother then asked Master Huiming to sit down.
Seeing this, Emperor Kangxi took the lead and walked out of the house. He left a few guards at the door to look after the Queen Mother, and then took everyone to sit in a pavilion next to her.
The person who came to serve him now was not the young monk at first, but a middle-aged man who seemed to be quite mature in his work.
