Chapter 19 Wuchanyuan, a century-old temple

(Please collect it, please collect it!!!)

The Mount Emei mentioned here is actually not just a mountain, but a general name for a group of mountains surrounding Mount Emei.

When you come to Mount Emei, you can’t miss the rhododendrons. From April to June (March to May in the lunar calendar), it is a good time for the rhododendrons to bloom in the mountains of Mount Emei. Every late spring and early summer,

The breeze is refreshing, the azaleas are blooming, the beauty is beautiful, and the light is auspicious,

The flowers complement each other, which is really wonderful. But here you can see the greenery and majestic vitality everywhere. Standing in the pavilion, overlooking the entire mountain scenery, far away from the water and close to the mountains, lush and green, drink a cup of sake and sing a song of praise

The poems about the beautiful scenery of mountains and rivers are very pleasant and refreshing.

Zhengyao and others rested for a while in the pavilion. After lunch, they got up again and walked up the mountain. While eating, they heard from the owner of the garden that there was an ancient temple on the top of the mountain, and the ancient temple was quite popular here.

It is famous, and believers from all over the world will come to pay homage and offer incense. There is a century-old tree in the temple, which is a famous wishing tree in this generation and is very effective. It is said that dignitaries, wealthy businessmen and gentry from the capital come to fulfill their wishes all year round.

Of course, there is also an eminent monk living inside. This monk has a very high level of Buddhism and is quite famous. This is the main reason why believers from all over the world come here. After hearing what the owner of the garden said, Zhengyao and others also became curious.

I also wanted to see the so-called wishing tree and see the face of the old monk.

Perhaps because of the temple, the road from here to the mountain is much wider and smoother than the one below, which saved Zhengyao and others a lot of time in going up the mountain. After walking for about an hour, Zhengyao and his party were already there

The mountain gate of the temple could be vaguely seen, so Zhengyao and his party immediately quickened their pace.

"Wuchanyuan".

Three big black characters stand solemnly on the large blue stone tablet nearby, giving people the feeling of a centuries-old temple.

"It's so majestic! What a magnificent century-old temple!" As soon as Zhang Cheng approached the mountain gate, he was shocked by the dozens of steps made of lapis lazuli, and was filled with admiration.

Seeing this, Zheng Yao couldn't help but be startled. He thought he had been to Mount Emei once or twice, but he had never seen such a temple here. It seems that with the passage of time, this century-old temple has become more and more popular in the future.

There will inevitably be a day of destruction.

"It's really spectacular and magnificent." Zhengyao couldn't help but sigh with emotion.

I saw towering trees on both sides, and the lapis lazuli stairs in the middle slowly went up to the main hall. The antique atmosphere made people feel comfortable physically and mentally. The red tiles and red walls were particularly eye-catching. Among the temples in the world, this Wuchanyuan should be

It's at the forefront.

"What are you doing here stupidly? Since you're here, let's go in!" Ning'an didn't want to stand here like them. You sighed and I praised him. Without saying a word, he stepped onto the sky.

Bluestone stairs.

"What an impatient woman." Zhengyao shook his head helplessly, smiled at each other and followed Liu Yan leisurely.

After walking up dozens of lapis lazuli stairs, Zhengyao and his party arrived in front of the main hall. At this time, an old monk in sackcloth came over, looked at Zhengyao and the others, and said kindly: "Amitabha, how wonderful! How wonderful!

A donor has come from afar, I wonder what I can do for you?"

The old monk was dressed in gray clothes, holding a bunch of Buddhist beads in his hand, bowing with one hand, and his eyes were bright. From his tone, it seemed that he had been in this temple for a while.

When Liu Yan saw this, he naturally bowed and said respectfully: "Master, I came here to visit your temple and find a place to rest for two days. After the visit, I will go down the mountain.

"Secondly, I also want to donate some sesame oil money, which can be regarded as a bit of charity."

With that said, Liu Yan immediately took out a palmful of banknotes from his arms, which was a full five hundred taels (actually Liu Yan was not short of money, just five hundred taels was really nothing), and threw it directly into the banknote.

Inside the donation box.

He said that he wanted to donate money for sesame oil, and besides, this was not a big day for court meetings, and the donation was five hundred taels. Which monk wouldn’t be excited about it? The old monk in front of him was naturally no exception, so he said: "Lao Monk

This is the introduction of this court, the name is Shun Ming, all donors, please follow me."

With that said, Shun Ming turned right. Zheng Yao and others followed Shun Ming without asking any questions.

After passing through a corridor, everyone came to a large courtyard. The courtyard was very large. There were three-story houses on both sides, all with red tiles and red walls. A large Zen character could be seen occasionally on the wall. After looking around,

Zhengyao finally understood where this place was. It turned out that this was the guest room where the foreign visitors lived. It seemed that when Zhengyao and others said that they wanted to donate money, the old monk Shunming treated them as VIPs.

.

Sure enough, after going around an alley, the group came to a single courtyard. The renovated house here only had one floor, but it was quite large, with five rooms.

The old monk Shunming said softly with a smile: "The other rooms are already full of lay tourists. Several donors will stay here. After settling in, I will take everyone to visit the temple. Oh, by the way, Dong

Don't go to the garden, there are a few distinguished guests from the imperial court there who don't want to be disturbed by outsiders."

Shunming's attitude towards Zhengyao and others is very friendly (nonsense! Five hundred taels, six people living in such a quiet hut is already expensive. If the old monk arranges a worse house, he will not be friendly.

If it is, it cannot be justified.) After saying that, Zhengyao and others were satisfied with this. After sorting it out for a while, seeing that it was still early, they asked Shunming to take everyone to visit.

However, there was a knot in Ning'an's heart that she couldn't let go of, and that was the so-called distinguished guest of the imperial court in Dongyuan. Is there anyone more noble than herself? Thinking about it, she had the idea of ​​​​seeing him.

"Hey, old monk, where is the Dongyuan you mentioned? Also, who is that distinguished guest from the imperial court?"

In fact, what Ning An said was exactly what Zheng Yao was thinking, but he knew that Ning An couldn't help but ask, so he simply stayed silent and waited for Ning An to speak, not wanting to be really embarrassed by him.

You guessed it right. Zhengyao got the information he wanted without any effort. This move was indeed smart enough.

"This female benefactor." The old monk Shunming stopped, turned around, and said softly, "The distinguished guest from Dongyuan is not an ordinary distinguished guest. He comes here every three years, and only

He will live in the small garden in Dongyuan. It is strange to say that every time he comes, he only stays for a month. In total, it has been twenty years."

"Huh? There are such strange things, it's really novel!" Liu Yan couldn't help but asked in confusion.

Ning An was not interested in this, and said with a slight dissatisfaction: "I asked you who that person is, who told you to talk about these useless things!"

What Ning An was thinking was actually very simple. With people from the imperial court here, he was inevitably a little timid. After all, Zhengyao Liu Yan and others didn't know that she was a princess, and she didn't want them to know her identity, so she

Ask Shunming about it

.If that person is just some high-ranking official in the court, then he definitely doesn’t know him, so he has nothing to worry about; and if he knows that person, then he can inform him in advance to avoid unnecessary trouble.

exposed his identity.

Of course, Zhengyao and others had no idea of ​​these thoughts in Ning'an's mind, so they naturally thought that Ning'an was just messing around.

When the old monk Shunming saw that Ning An was dissatisfied with him, he immediately felt apologetic. Naturally, he could not offend such a VIP, so he apologized and said: "Yes, I didn't answer the question as I asked, but I was rude to the female benefactor. I still hope that the female donor will be offended."

The donor should not be surprised. But that man from Dongyuan does have a good background. I tell you, this man is the world-famous Prince Jing."

"What? Prince Jing is here?"

Everyone, including Ning'an, couldn't help but be surprised. However, Zhengyao thought about it carefully, and immediately regained his composure, muttering to himself: "They say they only live in Shu once every three years, and Prince Jing also comes to Shu once every three years."

I can already guess that the number is close to ten. It seems that my reaction is really slow."

"Prince Jing has been here for twenty years? How come I have never heard of this?" Ning An suddenly became confused. It seemed that when he was in the palace, he had never heard of Prince Jing or his father, Concubine Shen.

Just mentioned it before.

"Hahaha, what's so strange about you if you haven't heard of it? Who do you think you are? Are you the current princess?" Zhengyao suddenly smiled. This Ning'an was too self-righteous. Why did Prince Jing say that?

Does she have to have heard about it?

Although the expressions of Liu Yan, Zhang Cheng and others were not as exaggerated as Zheng Yao's, they still felt that Ning An's words were very funny, but they just laughed and didn't take it seriously.

"Who said that I..." Ning An was about to fight back against Zheng Yao, but suddenly realized that she was not a princess at this moment, so she immediately changed her words, "Can't the girl have heard about Prince Jing? You are just arrogant!"

Zhengyao didn't pay much attention to Ning An's performance. He thought she wanted to scold him again, but suddenly thought that this was a pure place of Buddhism, so he stopped. So he didn't want to quarrel with Ning An anymore, so he shook his head.

, said helplessly: "That's all, I guess you make sense."

After saying that, Zhengyao ignored Ning'an, but took two steps forward and said to the old monk Shunming: "Master, let's look around first. Thank you for your help, Master!"

After saying that, Liu Yan and Zhang Cheng also walked forward. Ning An hesitated on the spot for a while, thinking about what to do if she saw Prince Jing. Before she could think of a good idea,
Chapter completed!
