Cui Tingting felt confident, so she cried out her words to Shen Mingshu again, wiping her tears and said: "Mingshu is young and doesn't think this matter is serious. I can do it in Jingshan Temple or even in Yu I can hide in the palace for a few days, but I can’t hide for a lifetime!”
"My parents have ordered me to marry a matchmaker sooner or later. I must obey my father's arrangements to marry and fill the house. Princess, don't think I'm nagging, I really don't know what to do..."
"I am a sixteen- or seventeen-year-old girl who has gone to fill a house for an old man who is over fifty years old, instead of being his concubine. Why am I so miserable..."
Soaking her feet in hot water was so comfortable that Shen Moran fell into a drowsy state. Listening to her non-stop chatter, she felt her ears buzzing and couldn't hear clearly what she said.
"My cousin doesn't want to fill houses for others, but there is a way."
Cui Tingting stopped crying immediately and asked: "What can I do?"
She clearly had an arrangement in her heart, but she still came to her to cry. She wanted to let this evil person do it for her. She wanted to plot against Shen Mingshu, but she also didn't want to break up with her. After saying so many words to guide her, wasn't it because she wanted to let her do it? She continued what she said.
If she agrees to persuade Shen Mingshu and let Shen Mingshu take the decision to let her in, then she can get her wish without resorting to those underhanded tactics.
The abacus crackled, thinking she was a fool!
"The peach blossoms in the back mountain are in full bloom, and there are many talented people who come to visit. My cousin can choose the one that pleases her eyes, and the rice will be cooked. Even if my uncle objects, there is nothing he can do..."
Cui Tingting didn't expect her idea to be so bold. Why did she say, "Princess, my father is also the sixth-rank chief of the Ministry of Punishment. I am an upright official lady. How could I do such a shameless thing?"
"My father will break my legs then..."
Shen Moran yawned and said: "Should I shamelessly marry a wishful man, or should I shamelessly marry an old man over fifty years old to fill a house and risk a lifetime of happiness? My cousin chooses. Fish and bear's paw. If you can’t have both, cousin will make your own choice.”
Cui Tingting understood the meaning of her words very clearly and almost pointed at her nose and said she was greedy.
Did he just follow her words and say she was greedy, or did he see through his own mind and accuse himself of wanting to plot against her?
"Is there really no other way?"
Cui Tingting tested her for the last time, staring at her cautiously. Shen Moran had scheming ideas and methods, she had seen it a long time ago. He teamed up with Si Yiluo to force Mrs. Ge to not come down, and almost threw her and her mother into the trap. Imprisonment...
Shen Moran asked back: "Cousin, do you have any better ideas?"
Cui Tingting could see the mockery in her smiling eyes and said with a guilty conscience: "Thank you, Princess. I really shouldn't bother you with my affairs. I'll think about it when I go back..."
Shen Moran waved to Jiu Er.
"Send my cousin off."
Jiu Er stepped aside and said respectfully: "Miss Cui, please."
Cui Tingting went out from her place unwillingly, and happened to meet Zhou Zhan and Zhou Yu coming back from evening classes. Zhou Zhan leaned his whole body on the attendant, almost being carried back. On the other hand, His Royal Highness Prince Yu was still graceful. Handsome and calm.
"I have met your two highnesses."
Zhou Zhan didn't even have the energy to nod, so he was helped back to the Zen room to rest by the guards.
Zhou Yu stopped, looked at her face and asked, "What's wrong with Miss Cui? Have you cried?"
Cui Tingting wiped the corners of her eyes with a handkerchief and said, "Thank you for your concern, Your Highness. I'm fine. Your Highness has had a hard day, please go back to your room and rest soon."
Zhou Yu hummed and said, "Qixi, take Miss Cui back to her room."
"Your Highness..."
Zhou Yu walked past her without squinting. This call did not make him look back. Cui Tingting bit her lip. The place where she lived was vacated by Shen Mingshu's servants. She was in the same courtyard as them. There was still a chance...
in the room.
After waving the servant away, Zhou Yu stretched, stretched out his arms and kicked his legs.
A normal person would not be able to bear the thought of meditating for a day.
"I'll help you rub your back."
Shen Mingshu undressed him.
Zhou Yu lay on the bed and thought: "I have to go to morning class tomorrow morning. I can't be outdone by my seventh brother..."
I thought Zhou Zhan came to Jingshan Temple just for a formality, but I didn't expect that he was serious about it! For a moment, Zhou Yu didn't know how many days he would stay here.
He was still thinking about other things. He didn't hear anything Shen Mingshu said in her ear. He just sighed and fell asleep on his stomach.
Shen Mingshu was talking about Cui Tingting's matter. Seeing that he was not in the mood to listen, she stopped talking and put the matter down.
the other side.
As soon as Zhou Zhan returned to the room, he no longer needed support. Yinyue closed the door and exited. He sat down by the bed. Seeing that Shen Moran was too tired to get out of bed, he rubbed her waist twice and said with a smile: "Where are you going today?"
Already?"
Shen Moran looked at the roof with dull eyes.
"I looked for Master Wu, but couldn't find him."
Zhou Zhan didn't expect her to be so anxious and let it slip.
"Today I was giving a lecture on Buddhism with the master in charge, and I accidentally mentioned Master Wu."
Shen Moran moved her eyes over and saw that he had stopped, so she asked, "What then?"
She forced herself to get up.
"The presiding master said that all things are impermanent, birth and destruction, and all phenomena are related to fate. The fact that you and I met Master Wu shows that we are destined, and there is no need to deliberately search for it."
Seeing her staring at him with clear black and white eyes, Zhou Zhan pointed his finger at the tip of her nose.
"I only said that yesterday afternoon, our husband and wife had the same dream. We regarded yesterday's experience as a dream and told the host master."
Shen Moran lay back down again.
It seems that she underestimated this guy. Their experience was a bit like what was recorded in Peach Blossom Spring. It was unclear whether it was a dream or reality. If someone wrote it into an article and spread it, it would become a good story.
"What if Master Wu's body is really found in that place according to the guidance of the dream?" Shen Moran had an idea, "Use this to build momentum and get twice the result with half the effort!"
Shen Moran has no bottom line. No matter who he is, even Tathagata Buddha, as long as it is beneficial to her, she will take advantage of it.
Zhou Yu originally wanted to persuade her not to think about this matter, but unexpectedly it made her more determined.
"Master Liowu is an eminent monk, we shouldn't..."
He has this idea, but it is just an idea. If it can be realized for the best, but if it cannot be realized, just use the words just now to make yourself feel at ease.
After all, he still maintained a sense of awe in his heart.
But Shen Moran, who had died once, did not feel afraid.
"Your Highness will lend Yin Yue to me tomorrow. I suspect that there is a formation in the peach forest that ordinary people cannot break. We entered it by mistake yesterday. It will take some effort to find it."
Zhou Zhan didn't expect that she could even see the hidden formations in the peach forest, so he asked tentatively: "Aran, do you really not know how to do martial arts?"
But he saw the girl in his arms looked surprised.
"Is there really a formation in the peach forest?"
The formation in the peach forest was so mysterious that even he was not sure that he could get through it, so he came up with an excuse to avoid putting her in danger.
The couple was silent for a moment, and Shen Moran grinned and said, "If Your Highness is not sure, I can send a message to A Luo and ask A Luo to help..."
Zhou Zhan's eyebrows twitched, and before she said those words, he nodded and said, "I am sure."
