Stunning Poisonous Doctor Princess-Chapter 941 - To Prostrate Myself to Bodhisattvas
Chapter 941 To Prostrate Myself to Bodhisattvas
“Aunt… Aunt…”
The little boy was just a baby, who was learning how to speak. The first word he pronounced was actually “aunt”.
Lin Mengya had a big smile on her face. She hugged Moyan and kissed him.
She thought that she was lucky in this life. Her husband was incomparably good-looking and had an unparalleled manner, powerful and loyal to her, and her brothers were also uncommonly excellent people.
Now, she had a nephew, who turned out to be as delicate as a doll.
She was exceptionally lucky.
When she saw those people trying to cause trouble for her now, there was no grudge in her heart.
Who could have a trouble-free life? Those unexpected troubles could be treated as spices of her life when she felt bored.
“Master, aren’t you afraid that Prince will marry that crazy girl?”
Baishao was unlucky today and suffered a clean-up very early.
Knowing that her master liked sunflower seeds, she scooped up a handful of sunflower seeds and shelled them for her master.
In fact, as soon as the prince left, they learned from their master why the emperor urgently summoned the prince today.
The poor Emperor of Dajin thought that he did a perfect job and caught them off guard. But in fact, even the servants in Prince Yu’s Mansion knew what he was thinking.
He was a really humbled emperor.
Lin Mengya narrowed her eyes. Although they had been spending days in hiding before, Baiji, who was extremely careful, still remembered that Lin Mengya liked to eat sweets like candied fruits in winter.
Baiji had long prepared green plums, waxberries, dark plums, and other candied fruits. Now that they were served, Lin Mengya felt so sweet even in her heart.
The maidservants in the family gave Feng Zidie the nickname “Crazy Girl”.
Feng Zidie was more a domineering and willful daughter of a rich family than a crazy girl for a man. She could not bear any setbacks at all.
She required whomever she liked to like her.
If that man did not like her, he would owe her.
She did not know why Feng Zidie had such an idea, and she always scoffed at the logic of pirates.
She and Long Tianyu were equal.
She loved him, and he did not have to love her. But her love was not a cheap and unsalable product that could be thrown to a man casually.
If she were Feng Zidie, she would rather totally confess her affection for that man in front of him.
If he liked her, it would be a happy ending. If he did not, she would just think that she had spent a wonderful time in unrequited love.
She must cherish herself before others cherished her.
Feng Zidie did not understand that, so in the eyes of the spectators, she had become the most ridiculous woman.
“What should I be afraid of? Do you think that my prince is so stupid?”
She knew her man better than anyone else. If she kept being so suspicious, it would be an insult to him.
Anyway, she did not take Feng Zidie seriously at all. She looked around the yard and then looked at Baishao doubtfully.
“Didn’t you invite Elder Sister Lin Lang? Why can’t I see her?”
Su Linlang was still living in Prince Yu’s Mansion. In the opinion of Lin Mengya and Long Tianyu, at least before Sheng Nankun was “resurrected”, they had the responsibility to protect Su Linlang.
Although Lin Mengya did not think that Su Linlang should act in fidelity to Sheng Nankun, at least she did not want them to regret it for the rest of their lives because of all kinds of misunderstandings.
Furthermore, based on the past days she had spent with Su Linlang, she had learned that her cousin was a very affectionate person.
Hopefully, she would get what she wanted in the end.
“Princess Lin Lang has gone to offer incense to Buddhas with her maidservants. It’s said that a new temple has been built outside the city. The last time Princess Lin Lang went out to drive away her worries, she seemed to attach much importance to the incense sticks there for no reason. Now, she goes there every few days. Maybe Buddhas there are more responsive to prayers.”
It was Baizhi who replied. She was known as a know-it-all in Prince Yu’s Mansion.
The girl seemed to know everything. She looked so cute that people could easily let down their guard against her.
Lin Mengya wanted her to try the main business of Sanjue Hall. After all, Baishao had been able to shock the entire Capital City with a stamp of her foot now.
Looking at Baishao, who was distressed by the loss of only one tael of silver, Lin Mengya could only say in her heart, “As the saying goes, the wealthier, the stingier.”
“Oh, the incense sticks there must be good. Ask Sister Lin Lang to help donate some money to the temple in our name someday. Anyway, your Elder Sister Baishao is rich, so we can spend some money on good deeds.”
Moyan sat in her arms and ate the sweet chestnut cake.
Lin Mengya teased Baishao casually, but the latter just rolled her eyes and took out the notes as much as a few thousand taels of silver from her sleeve to execute her master’s instructions.
“The incense sticks are not really good. In my opinion, the monks in the temple are so handsome that Princess Lin Lang is fascinated by them,” Baishao said casually while curling her lips.
Lin Mengya put down the candied fruits in her hand and pondered.
“Moyan, do you want to see Bodhisattvas with me?”
The baby’s eyes were dark and bright. Although he did not know what the Bodhisattvas were, when he heard that he could go out with his aunt, he immediately nodded like a chick pecking rice.
“Well, we are at a loose end anyway. Let’s go to see how handsome the monks in this temple are.”
Anyone who wanted to seduce someone from her family had to first ask her, the head of the family, for permission!
Probably because the family was suddenly at ease after the war, their passion for such a meaningless matter reached an unprecedentedly high level.
After Lin Mengya mentioned that, the whole family, including men and women, old and young, rushed to catch the adulterer… no, to prostrate themselves to Buddhas.
However, she had to leave some people at home to look after the house.
After picking four maidservants, as well as Ms. Tian and Ms. Bai who looked honest and upright, she and the baby, escorted by Brother Ning, went to the temple.
“A few days ago, these shops were closed, but now they’re busy again.”
Baizhi lifted the curtain of the horse carriage and saw that the shops that had been affected were open now.
The Capital City was bustling with people. It seemed that it had returned to prosperity overnight.
“Humans are like the weeds. As long as the weeds are not burnt to ashes, they can come back to life in the next spring. Whether it is war or disease, as long as people are still alive, there is hope,” Lin Mengya sighed genuinely while holding the baby in her arms.
Whether the Crown Prince or the Emperor of Dajin, they looked down on these commoners in their hearts.
But it was these commoners who supported them as well as the world.
She always thought that a truly wise monarch should conform to public opinion and be responsible for the commoners ruled by him.
It was probably the most difficult job in the world.
Fortunately, Long Qinghan could be regarded as the backup.
Otherwise, she must try to give birth to a son who would ascend to the throne as soon as possible.
She was happy to sit back and relax, unconcerned about others’ suffering.
“Ah-choo-”
Long Qinghan, who had just come from the Imperial Palace with Long Tianyu, let out a huge sneeze.
For no reason, he felt a chill down his spine.
He looked up at the sky in confusion. It seemed that he needed more warmth than the cloak provided. He’d better wear a cotton-padded jacket inside.
“Are you sure this is the temple?”
She jumped out of the horse carriage with the baby in her arms. Because their destination was the temple, Lin Mengya only wore a blue cloak, which made her look very cool and fresh.
However, the baby in her arms was wearing an orange robe, looking like a plump orange.
In front of them stood a small temple.
It never seemed like a Buddhist temple. Instead, it looked like a theatre troupe on the street just for fun.
“Yes, it is.” 𝐟re𝐞w𝐞𝒃𝓃𝒐𝐯𝚎𝒍.c૦𝚖
Baizhi nodded after repeated confirmation.
The temple was indeed a little small and shabby. But maybe, there was a Bodhisattva who would grant wishes.
“Well, let’s go in and have a look.”
At first glance, Lin Mengya had a weird feeling.
However, without proof, she could not jump to conclusions.
Lin Mengya led the group of people to the temple on the mountain. The grand words “Temple of Emptiness” on the gate made Lin Mengya frown involuntarily.
It was not a warning about dangers. Rather, it was a feeling about… Well, she first went in to have a look.
The Temple of Emptiness was not empty. At least, it was as fully equipped as ordinary temples.
Lin Mengya went through the temple gate to the inner courtyard and frowned slightly.
She… She was not mistaken, was she?
There were two monks, with a penetrating gaze, standing straight on the left and right in the new Front Hall.
Moreover, the Vajras and Guardians on their left and right were holding something sparkling. They were weapons that could be used to kill someone, weren’t they?
Behind the Vajras and Guardians were rows of blades, spears, sticks… Also, she was sure that these weapons were frequently used.
Lin Mengya looked around quickly and always felt that there was something wrong with the Temple of Emptiness.
After passing through the Front Hall, they arrived at the Hall of Heavenly Kings.
There should have been nothing wrong, but why were there always a few monks staring at them since they came in?
Yes, that’s right. They were staring at them.
Even though each of them was wearing a robe and shoes like ordinary monks, with a bald head, she could notice their bold and unconstrained mannerisms easily.
Monks usually looked at the others with peaceful eyes and solemn expressions.
However, they all had stern expressions on their faces, as if they were debt collectors.
Lin Mengya suddenly felt a headache. It seemed that she should spare time to ask the masters of disguise of the Sanjue Hall to teach Long Tianyu’s men.
Only a blind person would be unable to see through their disguise.
Behind the Hall of Heavenly Kings was the Grand Hall.
Lin Mengya frowned even more tightly because she saw dozens of monks doing a martial-art squat!
If they wanted to practice martial arts, they should disguise themselves as warrior monks at least.
“What the hell is this?” Fortunately, they were all on the same side. Otherwise, the group of fake monks would be arrested as bandits, wouldn’t they?
While she was complaining about them ruthlessly in her heart, her family members were enjoying themselves watching the scenes.
“Look at the newly opened temple. It’s really different!”
