[Xiaogua, the people living in the temple are all monks, right? ]
【Yes. 】
[Going to a Buddhist temple to pray for a child, isn't this... strange? ]
When Mrs. Jiang heard this, she knew what she was thinking and was about to explain, but the system spoke first.
The system said: [Very strange! Host, please go over and take a look later, so that I can see what's inside.]
[OK! Leave it to me.]
Mrs. Jiang remained silent. How can it be proper for an unmarried girl like you to go to a temple to pray for a child?
She said helplessly: "Yangyang, it's normal to go to the temple to pray for a child, don't think about those messy things."
"It's normal to pray for a child in a temple? Mom, are you okay?"
Hearing this, Mrs. Jiang glared at her in reproach.
"The predecessor of Huguo Temple was Prajna Temple. Seven years ago, a great monk emerged and was favored by His Majesty. Then it was moved to its current location and became Daxia's Huguo Temple.
After the monks of Prajna Temple moved into Huguo Temple, Prajna Temple became empty. Later, at some unknown time, a nun moved in.
Gradually, the number of nuns in the temple increased, and now it has completely become a nunnery, but the name has not been changed."
Jiang Yueyang supported Madam Jiang and walked towards the road leading to Huguo Temple, while asking, "What's the matter with praying for a child?"
"It is said that the nun who presided over the temple picked up a statue of Guanyin Bodhisattva from outside and placed it next to the Buddha statue. Most of the people who came to pray for children got what they wanted."
After listening to Mrs. Jiang's explanation, Jiang Yueyang still had doubts in his heart.
But she didn't ask any more questions and just said "oh" simply.
Although Jiang Yueyang did not raise any more questions on the surface, she still couldn't help but mutter to the system: "Little melon, I still find it very strange. I won't say anything about the nuns living in the Buddhist temple.
Next to the Buddha statue is a statue of Guanyin Bodhisattva, who is said to be giving birth to a child. How could the abbot and the monks of Huguo Temple not have any objections? It's weird, and everything about it is weird! 】
[Does the host want to find out? ]
【certainly! 】
When Mrs. Jiang heard that she still felt that the Prajna Temple was strange, she swallowed the words of explanation after she had them on her lips.
Forget it. What my daughter wants to do cannot be stopped even by ten oxen. I'd better save my energy.
In this way, the mother and daughter went all the way towards the Huguo Temple. When they reached halfway up the mountain, they saw the people who were going to the Huguo Temple to pray for blessings.
There are also several familiar faces among them, including the wife of the Duke of England, the wife of the Left Prime Minister and Mrs. Wei.
Of these three ladies, Jiang Yueyang had only met the Duchess of England's wife once, during the autumn hunt.
Each of them had one or two girls with them, who must be their daughters.
The Lady of the Duke of England, who had stopped to rest, was the first to see Jiang Yueyang and couldn't help but waved, "Master Jiang."
The other two ladies instinctively turned their heads to look over, and Wen Shuyan, who was standing next to the left prime minister's wife, winked at her.
Jiang Yueyang responded with a smile, "Madam Yingguo is well."
Jiang Yueyang and Madam Jiang walked up, and the four ladies nodded to each other.
"Why don't you guys hurry up and pay your respects to the young...Princess Yongle." The Lady of the Duke of Yingguo reminded the younger generations.
The five girls immediately knelt down and saluted Jiang Yueyang, "Your servants greet Princess Yongle, and wish her good health and happiness."
Jiang Yueyang's mouth twitched when she heard this. Why can they always do it so neatly?
Really didn't you rehearse it in advance?
Without hearing Jiang Yueyang ask them to excuse themselves, the five girls remained in the posture of saluting without moving.
Mrs. Jiang pulled the corner of her mouth awkwardly upon seeing this, and then secretly poked the person beside her who was just daydreaming.
Jiang Yueyang came back to her senses instantly, raised her hand and said, "Ladies, there's no need to be polite, please stand up."
"Thank you, Princess."
When the people around saw this scene, they couldn't help but whisper.
"Is that the legendary Master Xiao Jiang?"
"Yes, she was personally conferred the title of Princess Yongle by His Majesty."
"She looks so young! But she's so pretty!"
"If my daughter could be so successful, I would wake up laughing in my dreams."
"Then I still advise you not to wake up. Those wishful thinking can only come true in dreams."
"You are such a nasty person."
"Honest advice is unpleasant to the ear."
“…”
Jiang Yueyang heard all the whispers, but she pretended not to hear them and ignored them.
It is human nature to gossip.
The ladies obviously pretended not to hear. Lady Yingguo asked with a smile, "Master Xiao Jiang and Madam Jiang are here to pray as well?"
"Yes, I hope that my brother can pass the imperial examination."
"Then our goal is the same, let's work together."
"OK."
After that, the group headed to the Huguo Temple together.
Mrs. Jiang was pulled away by the Lady of the Duke of England and the others, and all they talked about was their children's imperial examinations and marriage.
Jiang Yueyang was pulled by Wen Shuyan to the girl's house to talk. She heard the wife of the Left Prime Minister and Mrs. Wei asking their mother if their son had found a marriage.
She is looking at her brother!
Wen Shuyan asked: "Yangyang, how did you get the leave?"
"I just said I wanted to accompany my mother to the Huguo Temple to pray for blessings."
"You approved it right away? When did Kong Jijiu talk like this?"
Wen Shuyan remembered her brother saying that Kong Jijiu hated people asking for leave at every turn, especially for excuses like burning incense to pray for blessings, or celebrating the birthdays of relatives and friends.
"Strange, isn't it? I find it strange too, but Kong Jijiu approved it. Maybe he was just in a good mood that day."
Wen Shuyan's mouth twitched. Are you trying to say that he was mentally ill that day?
