Chapter 456: Bloody Disaster, Loss of Qualification
"Master Liaochen."
Jiang Wumei was the first to speak, and Xu Junjun followed closely behind and shouted:
"Hello, Master Liaochen."
The two of them spoke one after another, and Liaochen, who was sitting upright in the room, slowly opened his eyes in the dim light.
“You two are here.
Please take a seat. "
Liaochen seemed to have anticipated the arrival of the two and even prepared three teacups in advance.
This is the treatment that Jiang Wumei and Xiao Tong didn't get when they came last time.
The two sat down opposite Lechen. Jiang Wumei glanced at Xu Junjun and signaled her with her eyes to listen more and talk less.
Xu Junjun nodded quietly at her and made a zipper-locking gesture with his mouth, indicating that he would not say much today.
"Don't be nervous, you two."
Lechen raised his hand to pour tea, the fragrance of tea overflowed, and there was a cup of clear tea in front of Jiang Wumei and Xu Junjun respectively.
Jiang Wumei thanked Xu Junjun, picked up the tea and took a sip, their eyes meeting to convey information.
Finally, Jiang Wumei put down the teacup and said with a smile:
“I came here in a hurry this time, I hope I didn’t disturb the master.
To be honest, I came here today to trouble you for something."
Lechen just smiled without saying anything. He picked up the tea and took a few sips until the tea was half gone. Then he spoke slowly:
"Your Majesty, your words are too sincere. You two came here today to ask questions, not to do business."
Jiang Wumei and Xu Junjun's expressions changed instantly, and they looked at Chen with awe and temptation.
"Imperial Consort, Princess Yuhe, I have only one thing to say: now that we are here, let us make the best of it.
Everything in the universe, yin and yang rotate, and fate is determined by heaven.
When destiny has been determined, we must go through it with an open mind, so as to live up to our destiny."
Jiang Wumei pondered the meaning of Lechen's words, but Xu Junjun couldn't help but lean forward and ask:
"Master Liaochen, since you can see through life and death, could you tell me and Niao Niao how long we can live?"
They have special origins, and Xu Junjun is eager to know how many years they have left to stay in this world.
Xu Junjun's eyes were filled with urgency and exploration. Jiang Wumei looked up when she heard the voice and stared at Chen seriously.
Looking at the wrinkles on Laochen's old face, Jiang Wumei steadied her breathing and asked Xu Junjun:
"Since Master Liaochen was able to calculate my life and death, he must also have an idea of my and Junjun's lifespans.
I hope the master will make an exception and help me solve my doubts once, considering that Junjun and I are different.
We have no other intentions, we just want to know how much time we have left to accompany our husbands and children..."
There was a muffled rumbling sound in the sky, and a long-brewing rain began to fall.
The cold rain, accompanied by the chill wind, penetrated the mountains and fell on the Zen temple, making crackling sounds.
When they came out of the Zen temple again, Jiang Wumei and Xu Junjun both looked unhappy.
The Qilin Guards and the Imperial Guards came forward and asked in a low voice:
"Your Highness, the rain is getting heavy and the mountain roads are slippery. Can we wait in the temple until the rain subsides before setting off?"
With something on her mind, Qilinwei asked, and Jiang Wumei paused for a moment before nodding:
"Let's find a place in the back hills to wait.
Wait until the rain subsides before returning to the palace."
It's still early and Junjun still has some things to do, so he's not in a hurry to go down the mountain.
Qilin Guard nodded in agreement and immediately went down to arrange for the two to rest in the Zen temple.
Jiang Wumei and Xu Junjun walked out of the Zen temple and along the stone path for a while. Xu Junjun suddenly turned his head and asked Jiang Wumei:
"Niao Niao, what Monk Liaochen said just now, do you think it's true or false?"
This stinky monk, when she and Niao Niao asked him questions, he answered ambiguously and didn't give a definite answer. After talking about this and that for a long time, he let her and Niao Niao leave. But as soon as they left, the old monk started talking about the kid again, and cursed the kid to have a bloody disaster when he was ten years old. The best way to resolve it was to go out with him to travel for a few years to get rid of the blood.
I bother!
Seeing Jiang Wumei's face turn pale, Xu Junjun wanted to kick the old monk who was talking nonsense and make him shut up.
Unfortunately, he was stopped by Jiang Wumei.
When the two of them came out, Xu Junjun looked unhappy, and Jiang Wumei also had a worried look on her brows.
"I do not know either."
Jiang Wumei shook her head, feeling a little confused.
Just now, Lechen suggested that An'er follow him to leave the capital and travel around the world, but An'er is still so young, how could she bear to let the child wander around with a monk without a fixed place to stay.
I'm afraid Xiao Tong would not agree.
Bloody disaster...
Perhaps, this Liaochen was not as powerful as she imagined.
Maybe I calculated it wrong.
Jiang Wumei comforted herself, and when she looked up, she found Xu Junjun looking at her with a worried look, and a faint smile appeared on her face:
“Don’t worry, I’m fine.
What's more, the time Master Liaochen mentioned was ten years old.
There are still several years to go, so there’s no need to worry so much in advance.”
Jiang Wumei didn't know whether she was persuading Xu Junjun or herself. The raindrops falling from the sky were still dense, and occasionally a few of them passed through the eaves and hit her cheeks, bringing a hint of coolness.
Jiang Wumei glanced at the gray sky, her eyes penetrating the rain curtain as she looked towards the Huguo Temple hidden in the mountains.
"Master Liaochen just said that if you want to set up a memorial tablet for Madam Huo, you can go directly to the front temple and find the abbot.
It's still early, let's go and take care of this matter before going down the mountain."
Although she did not get a clear answer on this trip, Lechen's words also showed that she and Junjun were not destined to die early.
Jiang Wumei made up her mind and prepared to finish the matter of Old Madam Huo with Xu Junjun first, and then return to the palace to discuss the matter with Xiao Tong.
Xu Junjun nodded, and the two of them went to the front temple to find the abbot and explain their purpose.
Unexpectedly, the host laughed when he heard it.
Tell them that Mrs. Huo already has a memorial tablet in the temple and there is no need to set up another one.
Jiang Wumei didn't say anything and looked at Xu Junjun. Xu Junjun hesitated for a moment, but still asked:
"Was it General Huo who set up the memorial tablet for Madam Huo?"
"yes.
At that time, General Huo and his wife and Lieutenant General Huo came to the temple together to erect the statue for Mrs. Huo.
Afterwards, Major General Huo often came to the temple to burn incense and chant sutras."
Xu Junjun felt very uncomfortable after hearing this.
Yes, Huo Zhengfeng and his wife are both very filial. Now that Mrs. Huo has passed away, it is not surprising that they came to Huguo Temple to set up a memorial tablet to show their filial piety.
Xu Junjun felt even more sad. After all the twists and turns, in the end, she didn't even have the qualifications to set up a memorial tablet for Madam Huo.
She really let down Madam Huo's love for her.
Blinking away the heat in her eyes, Xu Junjun suppressed the frustration surging in her heart and forced a smile towards Jiang Wumei:
"Niao Niao, I want to go see Madam Huo's memorial tablet, and by the way...
Light a stick of incense."
