Master Jingyuan nodded.
"That would be perfect! Junior sister, you have already left the monastic life, so please make yourself at home! This humble nun will not see you off any further!"
"Thank you, Senior Sister!"
"Thank you, Master!"
Linghu Lan thought for a moment, then took out a string of Buddhist prayer beads given to her by the young emperor, and took out paper and pen from the incense table, writing a few lines:
I wander the world, making my home wherever I go. Do not search for me or think of me; just know that I always have you in my heart.
To be a wise and benevolent ruler, you must always remember times of crisis, always cherish compassion for the poor and weak, and always remember that a strong nation and a strong people depend on a strong ruler and strong ministers...
...
The letter is finished.
She used Buddhist prayer beads to weigh down the letter.
She bowed to Abbess Jingyuan and said, "Senior Sister, take care!"
After saying that, he took Hongchen's hand, and the two of them went down the mountain through the back gate.
Master Jingyuan sighed silently, "Junior Sister, take care!"
She watched the two of them leave and slowly closed the mountain gate.
Looking back at the prayer beads and letter, I silently put them away in the box.
A young novice monk asked in a childish voice:
"Master, why did the Regent leave behind this letter?"
"Naturally, it's for the sake of Puhui Temple. If Puhui Temple loses the regent who has become a monk, I'm afraid His Majesty will take his anger out on it. With this letter and Buddhist beads, Puhui Temple can be kept safe."
"Master, shall we give the letter to His Majesty?"
"Let's wait a few days!"
"Huh, why is that?"
Master Jingyuan did not answer, but fell into deep thought.
Naturally, we should wait until they are far away and can't be caught before sending them off.
As the abbot of Puhui Temple, she was frequently visited by important figures, giving her a keener understanding and clearer view of the political situation in the court.
The regent's decision to become a monk was inevitable.
The mundane world is certainly one of the reasons.
Another reason is probably that he had no choice but to become a monk in order to avoid the court's strife and the resulting chaos.
Throughout history, few regents in any dynasty have met a good end. Even if the emperor was wise and the ministers were virtuous at the beginning, many of them found that once the emperor took charge of the government, conflicts with the regents became increasingly prominent.
The regent was always kind-hearted and naturally did not want to go to the point of turning against the emperor, nor did he want to put the emperor in a difficult position, so he became a nun.
It's such a pity that such a bright and intelligent person was lost.
"Amitabha!"
The sudden chanting of Buddhist prayers startled the young novice.
"Master, is it time to do your homework?"
"Um!"
...
At the foot of the mountain.
Linghu Lan and Hongchen walked side by side.
"Heh, I teased you so much, and you don't even recognize me?"
Hongchen felt a little embarrassed, "I've always kept myself pure for you!"
Should I thank you?
"No, I should thank you for staying by my side through thick and thin!"
"What's going on? We've been practicing dual cultivation techniques, why don't you recognize me?"
"I guess I grew up listening to Buddhist scriptures, and Buddha blocked you out!"
Linghu Lan: "..."
You've been recognized by Buddha, that's amazing!
In the end, he still converted to Buddhism with his sister!
Linghu Lan grabbed Hongchen by the neck with both hands.
"I'll give you a chance to rephrase your words!"
"Ahem... It's because my cultivation is not up to par that Buddha has expelled me. I have no choice but to beg you to take me in."
Linghu Lan nodded in satisfaction.
"Good boy! I don't mind if you're a mentally challenged child like you. Come on, I'll buy you some candy!"
"A lollipop?"
Linghu Lan: "..." This is so dirty! Driving is my specialty, you need to be pure, pure!!!
#System friendly reminder: Your husband has been severely stained. Does he need stain remover?#
Their laughter echoed through the mountains and forests.
"I still need to practice the last move of the dual cultivation technique, otherwise if I encounter such a detached and desireless technique again, I'm afraid I'll be blocked again!"
"Yes! Whatever my wife says is right!"
"Call me Master, thank you!"
"..."
