Qing Dynasty: Pampering The Queen

Chapter 2984: please be safe

   Chapter 2984 Greetings

  Because Concubine De was here to pray for blessings, the second half of Huangjue Temple had already banned pilgrims from entering, and was guarded by heavy troops.

  On weekdays, those who enter the temple to add incense can only be in the first half.

   Today, the fourth master brought Mu Jin and other concubines from the harem, the third elder brother and the fourth elder brother came to Huangjue Temple to visit the concubine De, who was eating fast and praying to Buddha here. Naturally, they have cleared the field since yesterday.

When    Mu Jin and his party arrived, the host and the core monks including Master Rong Qing led the monks to greet them at the foot of the mountain.

   Fourth Master and Mu Jin waited to get off the carriage, and the host hurriedly led everyone forward to salute.

   The fourth master also believed in Buddhism, and in his hand hung the string of rosary beads that Mu Jin bought for him when he was in Jiangnan a few years ago. He met the host and greeted him politely.

   After a few greetings, everyone went up the mountain together.

   To show piety, the fourth master led the crowd on foot.

  Huangjue Temple was built on the hillside. Because of the prosperous incense, the stone steps built up the mountain are actually very gentle and easy to walk.

   It's just that Concubine Qi and the others usually have such a big place for activities. The farthest way to go on weekdays is to visit the Imperial Garden. Where did you go?

   This journey down the road is miserable.

   When we arrived at Huangjue Temple, we were panting, sweating, and all in a state of embarrassment. Only Mu Jin was blushing, and his breathing was never messy.

   Mu Jin gave Concubine Qi a dissatisfied glance at everyone, and lightly ordered someone to take them down to clean up, and then greet Tai Concubine De later, and led Mu Jin to the main hall to enter the incense.

  The statue of Buddha is solemn, sitting on the top, surrounded by incense, people can't help but feel a little awe.

   Fourth Master reached out to Mu Jin: "Come here."

   Mu Jin smiled, stepped forward slowly, raised her hand slightly, her slender white hand fell into the palm of the fourth master, and the fourth master led her forward.

   The little novice who was serving in front of the Buddha's incense did not dare to raise his head, and hurriedly gave the incense to the fourth master with respectful hands.

  The Fourth Master took it, but gave it to Mu Jin first, and then took a bunch of three incense sticks.

  The two entered the incense together, and the host hurriedly invited them into the arranged courtyard to rest.

  Although the resting place was actually carefully arranged for the emperor to rest, but the emperor obviously did not intend to separate from the imperial concubine, who dares to talk?

   Regarding the favor of the imperial concubine, there are so many pilgrims coming and going in Huangjue Temple, coupled with the close relationship with the royal family, it is natural to pay more attention to the imperial city on weekdays.

  However, it was a surprise to see him today.

   Where is the favor of the emperor, the imperial concubine? It is clearly inseparable, like paint and glue.

  Su Peisheng went to the back to report first, but when he came back, he was a little embarrassed, saying that Concubine De was doing her homework today and had not finished her homework, so she could not see anyone for the time being.

The fourth master didn't know whether his mother-in-law was really doing his homework and hadn't finished his homework or was deliberately trying to embarrass himself, so he calmly said: "In this case, you bring two people over there and wait, when will the concubine finish her work? When will you come over and report your homework to me. I naturally don’t want to disturb the concubine. You can all go down, I and the imperial concubine can walk around freely and look around, you don’t have to follow.”

   The host responded quickly, and Shi Li led the crowd to retreat.

  The Fourth Master didn't care about Concubine De's sincerity, holding Mu Jin's hand with a smile: "Let's go, let's walk around to relax, does Jin'er still have the strength to walk?"
