Chapter 549: Storm and Clouds Surge
Just when Li Hao and Li Zhi were greeting, they saw another team coming towards this side in the rear, the speed was very fast, this team was not small, five hundred people, and it was actually escorted by Jin Wuwei, Li Hao and Li Zhi looked at this team approaching, a little confused.
"Your Highness, is there any prince in the palace who is more awesome than you? Actually escorted by Jin Wuwei? Li Hao asked in a daze, he could be sure that this was not Li Shimin's Luan, because if the emperor left the palace, he would inevitably play the emperor's guard of honor.
Li Zhi scratched his head with a dry smile when he heard this: "There shouldn't be." ”
Just as they were talking, Li Guo, the lieutenant general of the Yulin Army who was in charge of escorting Li Zhi, had already greeted him with a hundred Yulin troops, who is coming, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is here, please take a detour!
The team slowly stopped, only to see one of the people in the team riding out of the crowd, Li Hao and Li Zhi suddenly exclaimed in unison: "Li Yuanzhong? ”
That's right, this Jin Wuwei is actually a team led by Li Yuanzhong, the general of the Yulin Army and the general of Jin Wuwei.
When Li Guo saw Li Yuanzhong, he was so frightened that he hurriedly led everyone to dismount and salute: "Meet the general!" ”
Li Yuanzhong raised his hand to signal them to be exempted, and said in a loud voice: "This general is canonized and escorted Princess Jinyang to come to Ganye Temple to be ordained and ordained!" ”
Li Zhi said happily when he heard this: "It's Mingda's sister's car, haha." ”
Li Hao also smiled faintly and said, "Your Highness, let's go and welcome Princess Jinyang." ”
"Good!" The two got on their horses one after another, turned their horses' heads and headed towards Princess Jinyang's convoy.
Li Yuanzhong saw Li Zhi and Li Hao coming together, and hurriedly dismounted and saluted: "Meet His Royal Highness the Prince, meet King Qiongnan!" ”
"General Lee, excuse me." Li Zhi immediately stepped forward to support Li Yuanzhong, and Li Hao took a step behind him.
At this time, Li Mingda's carriage curtain in the rear was lifted, revealing Li Mingda's little head, Li Mingda blinked and saw Li Hao and Li Zhi with big eyes, and shouted happily: "Brother Slave, sir!" So saying, he was about to get out of the carriage.
Seeing this, the eunuch on the side hurriedly prepared the horse pier, and Gong'e helped Li Mingda get out of the car.
Li Mingda came to Li Zhi and Li Hao and saluted: "Brother Prince, sir." When officially addressed, she generally referred to Li Zhi as the prince's elder brother rather than the childish slave elder brother.
Li Hao and Li Zhi both nodded with a smile, and Li Zhi asked with a smile: "Mingda, you are really ...... Why did I suddenly come to Ganye Temple, and I didn't play the honor guard, I also said who was so powerful, and actually asked General Li to take Jin Wuwei to escort him. ”
Mingda smiled and said: "This is suddenly arranged by my father, my father sent someone to ask Master Xuanzang to be ordained for Mingda, but Master Xuanzang refused, my father was helpless, and said that Brother Prince, you happened to come to Ganye Temple, so I asked General Li to escort Mingda to Ganye Temple to ask Abbot Huijing to take ordination for me, so that Brother Prince could take care of Mingda, because Mingda was about to become a member of Buddhism, so he didn't fight the princess's honor guard." ”
"You...... What nonsense. Li Zhi smiled and touched her head, and said dotingly, "Even if you are a monk, you are also a princess, and when you go out in the future, you must fight the princess's honor guard." ”
"Yes, Mingda knows." Li Mingda nodded obediently, and as she spoke, she raised her head slightly and looked at Li Hao.
Li Hao didn't know what to say at the moment, he was a little embarrassed, so embarrassed that his brain suddenly cramped, and said: "Since the two highnesses are going to Ganye Temple, then the ministers will avoid it, and go to repay their vows another day." ”
"Don't!" Li Zhi hurriedly said, "Other people need to be avoided, but you don't have to avoid poetry." ”
Since ancient times, the royal travel, the people and ministers have to avoid, which is equivalent to the charter of the future world, in fact, this is also for the sake of safety, unless some ministers have permission, but like Li Hao, with so many parts, it is absolutely impossible to enter the same temple with the royal team.
Li Mingda also said anxiously at this time: "If Mingda delays Mr.'s business, then Mingda will not go to Ganye Temple first." ”
Li Hao touched his nose when he heard this, and said, "Since this is the case, then let's go together, and the ministers will definitely protect the safety of the two highnesses." ”
Li Zhi smiled and said: "Poetry madman, you are worried about the sky, with General Li Yuanzhong and so many Yulin Army Jin Wuwei here, what are you worried about." ”
Li Hao looked up at the sky and said, "It's not early, there are still nearly ten miles of mountain roads, we have to hurry, otherwise we won't be able to reach Ganye Temple after dark." ”
"That's right." Li Zhi nodded, turned his head to Li Yuanzhong and said, "General Li, Lone's team and Sister Mingda's team are all together, and you will lead them." ”
"Yes!" Li Yuanzhong clenched his fists and took his life.
Li Zhi patted Li Mingda on the shoulder: "Mingda, go back to the car, let's get ready to go up the mountain." ”
"Hmm." Li Mingda nodded obediently and returned to the carriage.
Li Hao and Li Zhi each rode back to the team, and Li Hao led the team to meet Li Zhi's team.
The three teams are in one place, and begin to go up the mountain, the mountain here is relatively gentle, the speed of the carriage and horses is a lot slower, to the halfway up the mountain, it is a stone step path leading to the Ganye Temple, this stone step path is not long, it is only twenty or thirty meters, everyone abandoned the carriage and horse, two pregnant women and Li Mingda sat in a sedan chair, and the others walked up the mountain.
There are a lot of Yulin troops standing guard along the way, including the Ganye Temple, and there are also Yulin troops everywhere, adding up to a hundred people, because Li Zhi is the prince, he wants to come to repay his wishes, so he naturally has to notify in advance, and send people to clear the field to ensure safety, this hundred Yulin army has been here for several days.
Hui Jing, the abbot of Ganye Temple, took the nuns of the whole temple to greet each other at the temple gate, and when Li Zhi brought people to come, Hui Jing took all the nuns to salute: "Welcome His Royal Highness the Prince to Ganye Temple." ”
Li Zhi stepped forward and returned the salute and said, "Ladies and gentlemen, please excuse me, this time not only came alone, but Princess Jinyang also came." ”
As soon as he finished speaking, Li Yuanzhong suddenly stepped out of the ranks, tore open a bright yellow scroll, and said loudly: "The holy decree has arrived!" Hui Jing, the abbot of Ganye Temple, received the order! ”
"Hui Jing welcomes the Holy Decree!" Master Hui Jing hurriedly took the nuns to salute again.
Li Yuanzhong began to recite the holy decree, and the content of the holy decree was very simple, saying that the Duke of Jinyang would mainly lead the family to practice, and ask Master Huijing to help him take the ordination.
After reciting the holy decree, Master Huijing stepped forward to receive the holy decree, and at this time, Li Hao stepped forward and saluted: "Li Hao, King of Qiongnan, meet Master Huijing." ”
"King Qiongnan?" As soon as Master Huijing heard this name, her eyes suddenly lit up, and she raised her head and began to look at Li Hao, it was obvious that he was more interested in Li Hao than the prince and Princess Jinyang.
Master Hui Jing hurriedly folded his salute and said: "It turned out that King Qiongnan was coming, and the poor nun was clumsy, and he didn't know the distinguished guests, so he was disrespectful." ”
"The teacher is too serious." Li Hao said seriously, "In front of the Buddha, all living beings are equal, and Mrs. Shi's words are a bit of a surprise." ”
Master Huijing was shocked again when she heard this, and then sighed: "I have long heard that Wang Zhiguan of Qiongnan is in the world, but I didn't expect that the prince is also proficient in Buddhism. ”
Li Hao's heart suddenly thousands of grass and mud horses galloped past, this is called mastery of Buddhism? This is an old-fashioned line in Tianlong Babu, okay, but also a Buddhist Zen machine? Am I pretending to be successful?
At this moment, Li Hao suddenly felt a sense of coldness, he turned his head to look, and found that Wu Meiniang was staring at him, and when he saw his eyes, Wu Meiniang immediately looked away.
Seeing Wu Meiniang, Li Hao frowned suddenly, he thought of Li Zhi again, turned his head to look at Li Zhi, Li Zhi didn't seem to see Wu Meiniang, he was happy for Li Hao pretending to be successful, and came over and said: "Sir, I didn't expect you to be proficient in Buddhism, Mr. always surprises Zhi." ”
If he is really capable, Li Hao is not afraid of boasting, but he really doesn't know anything about Buddhism, and if he continues to boast, he will blush, and hurriedly divert the topic and say: "Ah, it's getting late, let's go in quickly." ”
Li Zhi nodded: "Yes, Abbot Huijing, have the guest rooms been arranged?" ”
Hui Jing said: "Back to His Royal Highness the Prince, everything has already been prepared, all the rooms have been sprinkled and cleaned, please come with the poor nun." ”
As she spoke, Hui Jing led them into the Ganye Temple.
Ganye Temple is not big, add up to a total of more than 80 nuns, there are not many rooms, suddenly more than 1,000 people came, how can this small Ganye Temple be accommodated, fortunately, most of Yulin Jun and Jin Wuwei are stationed outside the temple, the rest are stationed in the open space in the temple, so many guards are stationed in small places, Ah Da and Ah Er who are hiding in the secret room under Wu Meiniang's meditation room are so frightened that their livers flutter and jump, although they are masters, but no matter how high their hands are, they can't beat more than a thousand elite soldiers, And most of these Yulin Army and Jin Wuwei still have crossbows, it's really not something they can deal with, they can only hide in the underground secret room like rats, fortunately, this underground secret room has a passage to the outside world, if they find that the situation is wrong, they can escape at any time, otherwise they don't even dare to stay in this secret room.
Li Hao was arranged to live in the East Chamber, and Li Zhi lived in a courtyard, as soon as he settled, Li Hao let a hundred special forces be distributed in every corner of the courtyard, and then let the accompanying masters protect Li Mingda, he only brought Situ Feng and Zeng Yulin father and daughter out this time, Ye Mengqiu, Chen Song, Lu Yun, Zhu Ruihuan They are responsible for caring for the home hospital.
After all, Li Mingda was kidnapped once, and Li Hao specially sent Zeng Yulin's daughter Zeng Yihan to protect Li Mingda this time, Zeng Yihan is daughter, and it is more convenient to protect Li Mingda.
After setting up all the sentry posts, Li Hao was finally relieved, and then, Huijing sent someone to invite them to the restaurant for a meal, so Li Hao took Li Ping and Li Zhi and his wife to the restaurant to eat together.
At the same time, Wu Meiniang had returned to the room, she knocked three times on a bluestone slab in the corner, and then knocked twice, the bluestone slab was slowly jacked up, Wu Meiniang struggled to move the bluestone slab, and poked her head out to take a look, I don't know if it was Ah Da or Ah Er, anyway, the two looked exactly the same.
"Don't worry, no one, come out." Wu Meiniang spoke, and Ah Da and Ah Er came out one after another.
"How's it going?" Ah Da asked worriedly.
"Don't worry, as long as you hide in the secret room, you'll be fine." Wu Meiniang said, "Senior Brother Liang Ding has already sent a message to Master, and I believe there will be a response soon." ”
A few days ago, Liang Ding failed to assassinate Di Renjie and came to Wu Meiniang to hide from his injuries, but he didn't expect a hundred Yulin Jun to suddenly come to the temple and began to clear the field, saying that the princess was pregnant, and the prince wanted to bring the princess to repay the vows, and since then, one hundred Yulin troops have lived here.
Wu Meiniang told Liang Ding at the time that if the crown princess gave birth to a girl, it would be fine, but if she gave birth to a boy, then it would definitely affect the big plan in the future.
