Becoming The Real Rich Daughter After Divorce Novel - Chapter 455
Chapter 455: Chapter 455, the Prime Minister’s Temple
Lu Chen said, “I don’t think Zhao Qingquan is good enough for Weiyang.”
Qiao jinniang smiled and said, “According to your standards, no one in this world is good enough for Weiyang! However, I also don’t think Crown Prince Zhao is good enough.
“However, Xi’er’s wedding is coming from all over the world. If the Tubo of the northern desert asks to marry the princess and refuses rashly, it will hurt the harmony between the two countries. We have to arrange a marriage for her first.”
Great Tang’s national strength was prosperous, so it was naturally not afraid of fighting with the Tubo from the northern desert. However, since the beginning of the trade, the various countries had maintained a friendly appearance.
If they used the position of the mother of the country to ask to marry Princess Great Tang, if Great Tang was unwilling, it would hurt the harmony.
It was not only the princess who needed to marry during times of war, but the princesses in the prosperous era also had to marry. It was just that their status was different from the past.
The Tubo imperial court was already discussing the matter of marrying Princess Datang. Therefore, Lady Qiao was also happy to see Weiyang find the one he loved in his heart as soon as possible.
Lu Chen said, “You don’t have to worry about it. Datang’s national strength is flourishing. I think they won’t insist on marrying her.”
Lu Weiyang did not see anyone he liked after a day.
However, many young masters were shocked by Princess Weiyang’s appearance. Princess Weiyang was not in Chang ‘an in the past. No one had seen how good-looking she was in person.
…
Today, she was standing with Qiao Nichang, the publicly recognized number one beauty in Chang ‘an. They did not lose at all. They all went forward to please Lu Weiyang.
Lu Weiyang was finally annoyed. He hid to the side to find some peace and quiet. When he saw Qiao Jinniang, he ran over and jumped into her arms, “Mother, don’t let Grandmother do this in the future. I don’t like it at all. I don’t like getting married. Isn’t it good for me to stay by your side for the rest of my life?”
Qiao Jinniang stroked Lu Weiyang’s head and smiled dotingly. “Sure. I’m just afraid that you’ll dislike mother in a few years.”
Lu Weiyang hugged Qiao jinniang tightly and said, “Why would I dislike you?”
Qiao jinniang said, “You’ve been cooped up here all day today. It’s been hard on you. Do you have anywhere you want to go to play? Mother will accompany you.”
Lu Weiyang said, “I want to go to the temple of Prime Minister. Some time ago, I drew a huge ominous lot at the Yuanxi Temple. I’ve always been thinking about it, and I’ve been very unlucky these past few days.”
When Lu Chen heard about the ominous lot, he consoled lu weiyang, “Misfortune is a blessing in disguise, and misfortune is a blessing in disguise.”The ominous lot might not necessarily be bad, but it could also turn for the better. What did the lot say?”
Lu Weiyang said, “What does it say about the world being safe and sound? It doesn’t let down the Tathagata, and it doesn’t let you down. A monk can not eat meat. I don’t want to become a monk.”
Lu Chen said, “This signing document refers to the great ancestor’s Great Aunt Hui an’s great grandmother. When Princess Hui an was young, she fell in love with a monk. After she got married, she often interacted with the monk. In a fit of anger, the great ancestor ordered the monk to be sentenced to death. Princess Hui an rebelled.”
Lu Weiyang said, “Father, don’t worry. I definitely won’t rebel. A rebellion will cost a lot of money. I Won’t be willing to part with it.”
Qiao Jinniang chuckled. “I know you won’t rebel.”
Lu Chen sighed. “I Wonder Who Your Miserly character followed?”
Qiao jinniang said, “I’ve always been generous. She definitely followed you.”
Lu Chen:”…”
..
Qiao Jinniang had always been skeptical about the matters of the Gods and Buddhas. However, in order to make Lu Weiyang Beg for Peace of mind, she still brought Lu Chen to the Prime Minister Temple.
Lu Chen went to look for Ling Xuan. When Ling Xuan learned of the purpose of the noble’s visit, he put his palms together and said, “Amitabha Buddha, there is no such thing as fate in Buddhism. The lottery in Yuanxi Temple is also a combination of the folk temples and Daoists’lottery.
“The Buddha cultivates in this life and wishes to come to the next life. In this life, only by accumulating merit can one be blessed in the next life. As for the lottery of great evil, the princess does not need to take it to heart. “Only by doing more good deeds in this life can one have merit in the next life.”
Lu Weiyang said, “But second brother said that the lottery in Yuan Xi temple is very effective.”
Ling Xuan pressed his palms together and said, “Amitabha Buddha, if the princess can’t Let It Go, why don’t you quietly copy the Scriptures in front of the Buddha? You can repay your sins in half a month.”
Qiao Jinniang looked at Lu Weiyang and said, “There is a side room in the Prime Minister Temple. Mother will accompany you to stay on the mountain for half a month. If you sincerely copy the Scriptures, you can also pray for Peace of mind.”
Lu Weiyang said, “It’s cold on the mountain. Daughter can stay here alone to copy the scriptures. Mother doesn’t have to accompany me.”
Lu Chen also said to Qiao jinniang, “Weiyang is not young anymore. Just let her stay in the temple together.”
“She has never suffered since she was young, and she likes to eat meat. I’m afraid that she is too poor in the temple.”
Qiao Jinniang was really worried about Lu Weiyang staying in the temple alone.
Lu Chen smiled lightly. “Don’t worry. Master Ling Xuan, I’ll leave Weiyang in your care.”
“Your Majesty, don’t worry. I will take good care of the Princess.”Ling Xuan put his hands together and bowed.
Qiao Jinniang and Lu Chen said when they left the mountain, “Master Ling Xuan has an extraordinary appearance. He is one of the best men in Chang ‘an.”
Lu Chen said, “If he was not a Buddha at birth and still living in the secular world, he would be one of the best among the princes and Sons of Chang ‘an.”
“Is he from an extraordinary family?”
Lu chen nodded and said, “He was originally the son of the eldest son of the Zhao family. The current Uncle Zhao is his uncle.”
Qiao jinniang asked curiously, “In that case, the title of nobility of Uncle Zhao’s estate originally belonged to him?”
Lu Chen said, “Yes. His father died early that year, and he was a posthumous child. When Old Uncle Zhao was still alive, he once wanted to confer this grandson the title of crown prince. Later, the abbot of the Prime Minister Temple said that he was a son of Buddha destined by Heaven. His infant child became a monk and his title fell to the current Uncle Zhao.”
Qiao Jinniang asked, “Then isn’t he very pitiful? He became a monk at birth, and I’m afraid that he doesn’t even know what meat tastes like. Did he just miss out on the delicacies of the human world?”
Lu Chen smiled faintly. “Yes.”
..
Lu Weiyang quietly sat on his knees in a corner of the great hall, copying scriptures. He watched Ling Xuan kneel in front of the Buddha statue, devoutly reciting the Heart Sutra, and knocking on the wooden fish.
The afternoon sun shone on Ling Xuan’s body, seemingly casting a layer of golden light on his body.
Lu Weiyang rested her chin on her hand, unable to shift her gaze for a moment.
Until she heard a voice from master Ling Xuan, “Your Highness, copying scriptures requires sincerity. If the heart is not sincere, the sin will become even deeper.”
When Lu Weiyang heard this, she continued to copy scriptures until the sky darkened and she returned to the side room.
Lu Weiyang did not like extravagance to begin with. The rooms in the prime minister temple were prepared for the nobles and were not truly poor. For Lu Weiyang, they were just right.
The vegetarian dishes in the prime minister temple were not bad either. Lu Weiyang felt that it was a good choice to become a monk here.
However, Lu Weiyang, who was woken up by the ringing of the bell and chanting of the scriptures before dawn the next day, completely gave up on the idea of becoming a monk.
She asked the palace maids outside that it was only a quarter past three in the morning and they were already unable to sleep because of the sound of the chanting. They had no choice but to get up.
