Chapter 1170: Punishment for Mistakes
Shen Nanzhi squeezed out a smile, and did not rush to pay attention to Wang Qianqian, but first went up to the few monks sitting in the front and blessed them: "Master Huikong, the letter girl Shen Nanzhi...... This morning, someone said that they were learning to chant in the Pure Heart Temple, and the believer ran a long way......"
"Don't make excuses!" Without waiting for Huikong to say anything, Wang Qianqian couldn't hold her breath anymore and stood up from the futon, "Master Huikong, Concubine An said that the rules of the women's chanting place in the Xuanqing Hall were handed over to me to manage, this Shen Nanzhi dared to eat at will on the first day, and he was full of lies, this is insincere to the Buddha's heart!" I'll punish her for Master Huikong, okay? ”
Huikong is sixty or seventy years old this year, his eyebrows and beard are already gray, and his appearance is ...... Shen Nanzhi felt very much like Maitreya Buddha, and he didn't know if it was because he had been in Buddhism for a long time, but he was also peaceful just by sitting, but he was also majestic.
When Shen Nanzhi entered, he only opened his eyes and glanced lightly, then closed his eyes again and continued to knock on the wooden fish to chant, and when he heard Wang Qianqian say this, he didn't even open his eyes: "Since it is Concubine An's instructions, Miss Wang can do it herself." ”
Hearing this, Wang Qianqian looked at Shen Nanzhi's expression more and more gloomy as if she had won a gold medal for avoiding death-now you don't have to think about it to know who is planning behind it, Shen Nanzhi was stunned there, I don't know what to say, the most taboo thing about chanting and worshipping the Buddha is to argue loudly, and she didn't want to disobey such a solemn occasion, so she had to grit her teeth and wait for Wang Qianqian's fate.
"You entered the palace to pray for blessings, and I don't want to delay a big event for you! Kneel on the ground behind you and follow the chanting, and when you have finished sending the scriptures, you will kneel down and copy the scriptures. Wang Qianqian pointed to the ground where there was nothing on her toes.
Someone next to him couldn't look at it, and said in a low voice: "This kneeling on such a hard floor for a day, your knees can't be broken?" Isn't that a little too ......?"
"If you want to kneel, kneel! You don't even want to kneel for a day, do you think you have a sincere heart? Wang Qianqian directly interrupted the man's words, "Hmph, you dare to be late on the first day, or that someone told you the wrong place, the eunuchs conveyed in the palace are all unified, but you can't do it?" I see that you are not pure at all, you just know how to be lazy and slippery! ”
The hall was extremely quiet, the sound of Master Huikong beating the wooden fish was still calm, Shen Nanzhi had no temperament in such a scene, he just thought he was unlucky, and went up and waved lightly to Master Huikong: "The believer Shen Nanzhi is at fault, and she is willing to be ......punished."
With that, he silently pushed to the end, kneeling down next to the cold ground.
I never felt that kneeling was a hard thing before, after kneeling for a morning, Shen Nanzhi finally realized his innocence, and also realized the necessity of the existence of the futon, the ground was hard and cold, and it was okay to kneel for a while, but after a while, I felt that my knees were painful, and the cool air rose from the ground, and after a while, Shen Nanzhi's hands became as cold as the ground.
At lunchtime, she tried to get up, but she suddenly lost her strength and fell to the side, and if it were not for a girl next to her who reached out and caught her, she would have lost her honor in front of the palace.
Lunch was used in the side hall of Xuanqing Palace, Shen Nanzhi only took two mouthfuls casually, and was so distressed that Lilac's eyes were red and swollen, and she and Yulu squatted and rubbed her knees for a long time: "Miss Wang is also a little ruthless...... I even asked the girl to kneel for more than two hours! The girl has also been honored since she was a child, where can she withstand such a punishment? ”
Seeing that she was crying breathlessly, Shen Nanzhi couldn't bear to tell her: Your girl, I have to kneel and copy Buddhist scriptures in the afternoon!
Yulu seemed to have seen a lot about this, and only sighed deeply, "In the past, slaves and maids served in the palace, and the masters were also punished to kneel down at every turn, and there were also those who knelt in the wind in the cold winter wax moon!" The slave maid who used to serve the little master was the root of the illness in this way, and he ...... every year after entering the palace Xiang Xiaoyu died. Fortunately, the emperor was compassionate, and the slaves and maids invited themselves to the palace. ”
"But the girl...... Calling Miss Wang so targeted, how can I go to the imperial doctor to get medicine? Lilac cried, "Minor illnesses and pains in the palace must be registered and reported, Concubine An and Miss Wang colluded, how could they allow our girl's medicinal herbs!?" ”
As she spoke, Yulu's eyes turned red, and she wiped her tears, "Girl, Sister Lilac and I will ask for some eggs in the dining room later, and when the girl goes back tonight, I will apply them carefully, and the egg whites can reduce swelling...... I'll ask the Imperial Doctor if he can approve some herbs, if not...... It's always better to have than not to have. ”
Shen Nanzhi chuckled and nodded, and reached out to help the two little girls wipe away their tears: "Okay, okay, if you kneel, you can't die, how can I not bear this bitterness?" Don't cry like this, you two don't cry like this, I was punished, but you called me to comfort you! ”
In the afternoon, he knelt down again to copy Buddhist scriptures.
Shen Nanzhi's handwriting is not satisfactory, and kneeling on the ground is even more distorted, and Wang Qianqian grasps this point and refuses to let go, this page says that she is perfunctory, that page says that she is not convinced, and that one says that she wants to go to rest quickly. Just like that, she copied out more than 50 pages of a small volume of Buddhist scriptures of more than 10 pages.
Wang Qianqian, a partial, felt that she was not satisfied, and counted Shen Nanzhi from head to toe proudly. Originally, the first day was only over at the end of Shen Shi, but because Wang Qianqian wanted to target Shen Nanzhi, he dragged a room of people to Youshi.
Gradually, even others became more and more impatient.
Huikong walked in from the outside with the Buddha beads, only glanced at the impatient girls on his faces, folded his hands, and sighed: "That's the end of today, your hearts are already uncertain, and it won't help to stay as long as you want!" ”
The girls were released, and they rushed out one by one, Wang Qianqian wanted to say something, but Huikong glanced at it with careful eyes: "Wang Liu's girl also go back, the Buddha said that compassion is in her heart, Wang Liu's aggressiveness today is really against God's will, you should go back and copy a Buddhist scripture, and Tao Zhi's mind is." ”
The implication was to ask her to go back and copy the Buddhist scriptures, but Wang Qianqian was stunned for a moment, and then smiled: "Master, why don't I want to be merciful?" It's just that Concubine An said that discipline has to be grasped strictly, if Shen Nanzhi is indulged, everyone will be lazy in the future, but what is good? ”
A monk, a powerful person, no matter how the two of them say it, they can't go together, Shen Nanzhi has already asked Meng Xian to stand up, and hurriedly stepped forward and said: "Master Huikong, today is indeed my fault, guilty should be punished, Nanzhi will not make any more mistakes in the future, and the sister of the Wang family will not give you the Buddha's wish!" ”
Huikong glanced at Shen Nanzhi, and then nodded with a rare smile.
