EBE Chapter 172: Show Your Spirit
Chapter 172: Show Your Spirit
"Didn't something like this happen in the Baohua Hall of Dafu Temple before?" Zhou Chang was even more afraid that everyone present would not remember this, so he reminded loudly, "Now seven days have passed, and the golden jade belt that I offered is still there. Doesn't that mean that the Buddha did not show his power?"
“This…, Your Highness Prince Yi, the Buddha’s manifestation is not in this way…” Shusheng didn’t know how to answer. The main reason was that he had practiced for many years, and he had only heard that other people had various supernatural powers, but he himself had not cultivated any, so he was often not confident.
What Zhou Chang wanted was to make the other party feel guilty. With a look of disappointment on his face, he turned around and walked forward to the altar, grabbing the belt that was still on it.
He took a step back and knelt on the mat, raised his belt high, looked up and asked the sky: "Buddha, why don't you show up? I pray that the war between Lin and Shen will end quickly, so that the people will not suffer from the war. Buddha, why don't you show up?"
"Your Highness Prince Yi, this is not how we pray to the Buddha, Your Highness Prince Yi..." Zhou Chang's actions really disturbed the chanting of everyone present, and Shusheng had to stand up and come over to dissuade him.
Zhou Chang didn't listen and shouted even louder: "Buddha, the fairy lady in the dream has said that as long as you are willing to accept the offering, you will definitely fulfill your disciple's wish. Please accept it."
"Amitabha, His Highness Prince Yi..." Shusheng was so anxious that all he could do was chant the Buddha's name.
"Master Shusheng, if the Buddha appears, you should accept my belt now. Please Buddha appear and accept my offering. I am sincere..." Zhou Chang said in an extremely firm tone, shaking the belt in his hand.
Shusheng had never seen anyone pray like this before, it was simply forced upon him, he could not bear to watch, but he had to go forward and support him: Amitabha, Your Highness Prince Yi, this is not how you make a wish. "
"Then what should I do?" Zhou Chang asked, just kneeling and not getting up. "If the Buddha doesn't agree today, I won't get up. Could it be that the Buddha and the Fairy Queen think my belt is not valuable enough?"
"Amitabha, no..." The next second, Shusheng had just uttered the Buddha's name when he was suddenly stunned.
The belt in Prince Yi's hand disappeared out of thin air before his eyes.
"what……"
"hiss……"
In front of Shusheng and everyone present, Zhou Chang "delivered" the gold and jade belt to the plane in 0.1 seconds.
"Ding, congratulations, the transaction was successful, and you received a commission of two hundred and fifty taels." The voice of the viewpoint system must have sounded.
[Level: Upper Nine-Three]
【Commission: -7,949,350 taels】
【Order: 333】
Two hundred and five?
Zhou Chang wondered if this was the conspicuous system hinting at something?
This belt has been with Prince Yi Fengming for many years and is only used on important occasions. It still looks new.
When it was originally taken out, a customer placed an order. Zhou Chang has been waiting until now for today's operation.
But she remained kneeling with her hands raised high, as if she didn't know what was happening, and she was still shouting: "The Fairy Goddess appeared, the Buddha appeared, and granted my disciple's wish."
Customer orders suddenly increased to more than 300. Whether they could be cleared in one go depended on this one move.
"Your Highness, Your Highness, Your Highness..." Shusheng took two steps back, still too stunned to utter a complete sentence.
Someone shouted from below: "Ah, it's the Buddha appearing."
This loud shout made Zhou Chang withdraw his hand and look stunned.
"Amitabha..." The monk who was quick to react muttered to himself.
The women behind the bamboo curtains on both sides could no longer remain calm. They stood up one after another and crowded to the front to watch.
"Is this the Buddha or the Fairy Goddess appearing?" Zhou Chang's eyes widened in surprise, and he slowly stood up from the cushion, but his hands were still holding the gold and jade belt.
Shusheng came back to his senses after a long while. He swallowed his saliva, then suddenly knelt on the bluestone floor and kowtowed, crying and shouting: "Ah, the Buddha appeared, the Buddha appeared, I finally got to see the Buddha appear with my own eyes today."
Zhou Chang admitted that she had no idea how to fool a great master like Master Yuanjue, but she was somewhat confident about Shusheng, and she believed that this monk could definitely help her.
After Shusheng’s shout, everyone became more convinced.
Soon, the news spread.
Zhou Chang originally wanted to "retire after success" temporarily and let the news of the "apparition" fly for a while.
Before he could slip away from the side, he was grabbed by a middle-aged lady.
"Your Highness Prince Yi, was that true just now?" The middle-aged noble lady was dressed in silk and satin, but wore a plain hairpin on her head. She was in her early forties and looked a little haggard.
Zhou Chang was able to barely recognize, based on the memory of Concubine Rui Shen Rui, that this person was Concubine Xu Shufei, the biological mother of the eleventh princess.
Concubine Xu Shu looked earnest: "The Eleventh Princess has been seriously ill in bed for several months. Previously, she had been chanting sutras and praying for blessings in Baohua Hall, but it didn't work. Will it work if she changes to here?"
"Uh..." Zhou Chang was about to say the word "can", but when it reached his lips, he suddenly changed his tone.
How many months?
Zhou Chang couldn't help but think back to the time when Xiao Lan disappeared under that identity. Five months had already passed in a flash, and half a year had already passed. The Eleventh Princess became ill due to the "accident" with Xiao Lan. When she was still Concubine Rui, she heard about it but didn't take it seriously.
How come it’s been so long and the princess’s illness hasn’t healed yet?
Zhou Chang didn't dare to say anything nonsense about the matter.
But now that so many eyes are on her, and they are the main "suppliers" of goods for her live streaming sales, what should she say?
Concubine Xu Shu loved her daughter dearly. She shook Zhou Chang twice and took off a thick, dark green bracelet from her wrist. "This was given to me by your majesty. I have worn it for so many years. If it can help relieve the princess's illness, I am willing to offer it to the Buddha."
Zhou Chang now knew that Emperor Lin seldom rewarded the harem with items, and even if he did, they were not the best. But the jade bracelet was valuable, which showed that it was rare, and it showed Concubine Xu's sincerity.
"If your Majesty is sincere, please feel free to offer your sacrifice," Zhou Chang nodded as a courtesy, turning sideways to avoid the gazes of the people in the harem, "Since my prayers just now were answered, I believe that your maternal love will surely be blessed by God."
After hearing this, Concubine Xu smiled, turned around and went to the altar, presented the jade bracelet personally, and bowed three times.
When Concubine Xu Shu stood up, Zhou Chang went forward again and said, "Madam Shu, Eleventh Sister has been ill and it is not convenient for me to visit her, but I don't know what her specific illness is."
I am still worried. The Eleventh Princess is either suffering from lovesickness or depression. It will not work just by offering sacrifices to her.
Concubine Xu sighed, "Alas, the princess lost her appetite at first, and was troubled by thoughts. Later, she developed a fever and fell into a coma. The imperial physician prescribed some medicine and took care of her for a while, and her symptoms gradually eased. But since then, she has been listless all day long, eating little, sleeping little, and laughing little. She also feels weak all over and often feels sick. No matter how much medicine she takes, it doesn't help."
The two of them walked to a less crowded place while talking.
"Oh, maybe it's because she's been bored in the house for too long," Zhou Chang couldn't say it was lovesickness. "Eleventh sister loves music, have you hired a musician to play for her? Some songs can cheer people up and relieve their worries."
"Of course not. Well, I won't hide it from Prince Yi," Concubine Xu shook her head and sighed. It was obvious that she had said some of the things she had said countless times. "The princess got sick after Si Le Xiao Lan disappeared. Later, she invited a musician, but it didn't get better. Instead, it made her worried." "Research will lead to discovery.
