Chapter 793: Is This the Main Point?

Pan Shuo was a friend who treated Xie Xian as a confidant, a lifelong friend.

However, this matter with the Prince of Huaiyang was neither big nor small. There was no need to make a trip so late at night. It was not that serious.

Especially if the emperor was suspicious of him because of this, it was even more unnecessary.

“Damn it, I’m drunk!” He raised his hand and patted his head, and his head buzzed.

Madam Xu shut her mouth tightly. She really wanted to step forward and ask, Why, did you hear the sound of water?

There was no need to be surprised or surprised when she heard it. It was in her heart.

“You don’t have to go tomorrow. Anyway, we can see each other in court. I’ll just tell him.”Pan Shuo came back to his senses.” I came here because of this. What’s the difference between you and me today and tomorrow?””

Madam Xu sighed.

“Don’t tell Xie Pushe. There are many ears and eyes in the palace. Do you know who will hear it?”

“A while ago, I heard Eldest Lady Xiao mention that the Xie family will be holding a ceremony at Qingliang Temple for three consecutive days during the Ghost Festival. It’s just like our residence, but today we have received Aunt’s decree to enter the palace.”

“Anyway, I have to rush over tomorrow, so I can say hello to Lady Xiao.”

Usually, when he interacted with Xiao Baoxin, the two of them got along well.

Madam Xu had a gentle personality and was the most gentle. She was good to everyone.

She had heard about Xiao Baoxin before, but she knew that he was a jinx and didn’t dare to offend him. When Pan Shuo first asked them to get close, she had come on tenterhooks.

However, after a long time, she understood that that person was a straightforward person with a straightforward personality. He was born to abhor evil and would not do one thing in front of others and do another behind their backs.

It was refreshing and relaxing to get along with him, and he liked him from the bottom of his heart.

Compared to those who had thousands of knots in their hearts, were full of schemes, and had a belly full of schemes, they were simply too good.

The rarest thing was not to get tired of getting along with each other and not to get tired of talking for a long time.

“Alright, then you can go.”

Pan Shuo listened to Madam Xu’s advice. There were indeed many people in the palace, and he had a loud voice. If someone heard it and the Emperor heard it, it would be difficult to handle.

“.. Erm, what did I say in the palace?”

“Like I said, those few people who were promoted were all promoted by Xie Xian?”

He had really forgotten. He was too excited and too carried away. He was still a little dizzy.

He asked very carefully, afraid that Madam Xu would give him a definite answer.

In the end, Madam Xu nodded her head so readily that her little neck almost broke in his hand.”Yes, sir! Although you didn’t say it out loud, you did mean it.”

Perhaps Emperor Yong Ping didn’t understand or hear him clearly, so Pan Shuo held onto some hope.

In the blink of an eye, Madam Xu extinguished the basin of foot-washing water.

“You didn’t see the emperor’s gaze at that time. I stole a glance and was so scared that my bones went cold.”

“You still dare to peek at the emperor? Looking at the king directly, aren’t you afraid of being labeled as disrespectful?”

Madam Xu: Is that the main point?

No matter how honest she was, she didn’t have the heart to remind him that no matter how disrespectful she was, would she still conspire with Xie Xian to scheme against the Emperor? He insulted the King of Huaiyang for being disrespectful?

He said that he was raising pigs and cows. Did he not know that the King of Huaiyang was afraid of that word?

“Alright, I understand. I won’t do it again in the future.”She had a good temper.

Pan Shuo returned to the manor and instructed Madam Xu,” “When I see Lady Xiao tomorrow, tell her everything, including my heroic bearing! I am loyal to Xie Xuanhui! I can’t be humble about this and belittle myself.”

He couldn’t do something good without others knowing.

Mrs. Xu: Life is so difficult.

###

Madam Xu was filled with emotions that night, but it didn’t stop her from getting on the ox cart and heading straight to Qingliang Temple the next morning.

Qingliang Temple is on Qingliang Mountain, more than a mile outside Jiankang City.

Madam Xu hurried along, and even if she took the ox cart, she couldn’t go very fast. It was almost noon when they arrived at Qingliang Temple.

The Dharma Assembly continued to be in and out of the temple, but all the families were resting in the Chongming temple on the west side of the temple.

Most of the people of Daliang believed in Buddhism. However, Buddhism had been aggressive in the past few years and had enriched the three views of the Central Plainsmen. With the turmoil of the previous dynasty and the vigorous promotion and support of the founding emperor of Daliang, there were already three to four hundred monasteries of various sizes in Jiankang City in the past hundred years.

Waguan Temple had always been the first choice of Jiankang people. It was famous, popular, and had its own history.

But ever since Noble Consort Liu died there, be it Emperor Yuheng or the new Emperor Yongping, they would forever be in pain and could never go back. The aristocratic families avoided it, and it was also a taboo. They followed the example of their superiors and gradually, Waguan Temple declined.

Only the commoners who lived nearby would burn incense and pray to Buddha in their spare time. The dignitaries were basically extinct.

The collapse of Waguan Temple had helped many other temples.

Qingliang Temple was one of them.

Because it was built after Waguan Temple, there were no legends to add luster to it. The road was ordinary, and the mountain temple was not small. It was not far from Waguan Temple. It could be said that compared to Waguan Temple, the only difference was its reputation and popularity.

Now, at least he had some popularity.

There were at least three or four famous families in Jiankang City who had come to the Central Yuan Dharma Assembly.

Among them, the Xie family was undoubtedly the most eye-catching. Their status was there, and they attracted a lot of attention.

Madam Xu’s goal was clear. She could not leave the Pan family behind and go directly to the Xie family. It would be light for people to say that she was fawning over them. If the Emperor heard about it, all their efforts would be in vain.

Since it had already come to this, shouldn’t he act perfectly?

He met with all the members of the Pan family and had a simple meal. Then, it was time for the Dharma Assembly in the afternoon. Those who were sincere in worshipping Buddha could also go listen to the scriptures and recite Buddha.

After all, sincerity was still a matter of practice. It was not just adding some money to be a letter.

Madam Xu didn’t go to the temple hall in front. Instead, she walked along the veranda to the east side of the Xie family’s guest room.

Mother Xie was already old and did not come out to cause trouble this time. Only Madam Yuan, Madam Cai, and Madam Wang brought the younger generation Xiao Baoxin, Xie Wan, and Wang Qiang. Twelfth Aunt Wang was at home taking care of the child and did not follow him out.

Madam Yuan was used to being sincere in dealing with Buddhism. If not for Xie Yan, she would have seen through the mortal world and her heart would be like dead ashes.

However, on the special day of the Ghost Festival, Lady Yuan was still very devout. She bathed, burned incense, chanted scriptures, and worshipped Buddha. Every year, she would go to the temple to help Xie Shizhong.

After the old madams had their afternoon tea, they took a short break and went to the front hall.

Wang Qiang was widowed for Chu Silang and would hold a few soul ferrying ceremonies almost every year. She was extremely pious. It was also at this time that she could leave Chu An in the residence and let Twelfth Madam Wang take care of him. Usually, she would focus on taking care of and nurturing Chu An.

Although the Chu Clan would definitely not be able to attend the Spiritual Conference, since Wang Qiong had fallen out with the Chu Clan, she had not returned for the past two years. Naturally, she would not participate in this Spiritual Conference and would organize it together with the Xie Clan.

She naturally went to the front hall. Only Xie Wan and Xiao Baoxin stayed in the guest room to rest.

One only believed in Mo Wen’s future, and the other…She was used to hearing and seeing Buddha’s face and snake’s heart, so she instinctively resisted whatever she believed.
