The prefect: "Ah... isn't this from the same department?" He had always thought it was from the same department.
"Of course not! Guanyin Bodhisattva and Buddha are from the same family! Buddhism and Taoism are separate!"
The prefect said: "Thank you, county magistrate, for your advice." He naturally knew that Buddhism and Taoism were separated, but no one had thought deeply about it before!
"Some people pray to Buddha and then go to a Taoist temple. Isn't that inappropriate?"
His mother is a Buddhist, but his wife likes to go to Taoist temples...
Wei Fu looked at the prefect as if he were a fool: "That's definitely not right!"
"You should be loyal to your uncle. For example, you can be loyal to my uncle, but you can't be loyal to my uncle and someone else at the same time!"
"I am devoted and loyal to the emperor. I will never have any second thoughts about you. Please understand my words, princess." Wei Fu's words scared the prefect. He felt that there were traps everywhere when talking to the little princess!
But he couldn't help asking, and told Wei Fu about his family situation: "May I ask, Princess, how should I deal with this situation in my family?"
Wei Fu said calmly, "You don't need to worry about them. A person's life is predetermined from the moment they are born. The people we see who defy fate and change their destiny are those who were destined to do so, not those who changed their destiny through hard work."
"If someone is extremely unlucky and wants to have better luck, I can only give them four words: do more good deeds."
The prefect concluded, "So, praying to the gods and Buddhas is useless?"
Wei Fu nodded: "It's definitely useless!"
"If you want to live a good life, you'd better do more things instead of praying to the gods. The gods and Buddhas are so busy, how can they have time to listen to the wishes of ordinary people?"
"Just be respectful! He might not hear you begging him, but if you scold him, he might hear you."
The prefect asked cautiously, "My Lady, does this count as scolding them?"
Wei Fu scratched his head: "I don't think so!"
"My master told me not to dwell on the myriad gods and Buddhas. I used to worship the Three Pure Ones, but they refused to accept my offerings."
The prefect: "..." If he didn't know the ability of this little ancestor, he would probably think that this little ancestor was despised by all the gods and Buddhas.
As they were talking, they had already arrived at the prefectural yamen. The prefect was very capable and the guards helped them there. Then the prefect's wife came over with her maid, carrying some food, drinks and toys that children liked to eat and play with.
The prince brought such a group of people here with a solemn expression. The prefect knew that something must have happened. After the prince arrived at the yamen, he went into the study with the prefect and Su Cheng.
The prefect's wife personally greeted Su Rui, Wei Fu and Long Yin.
The prefect's wife believed it and was very fond of Wei Fu when she saw him. After greeting Wei Fu, she immediately and attentively put all the food, drinks and toys in front of Wei Fu.
"These are all arranged by this humble lady based on my son's preferences. If the princess doesn't like them, please tell me. If the princess likes anything, you can also tell me."
When she heard the legend of Wei Fu before, she had been praying that the prefect would be more capable so that she could come to Beijing as soon as possible. She would feel honored to stand on the same land with a fairy-like figure like the princess.
When she heard the prefect send someone to say that the princess had arrived, she was overjoyed and excited for a long time before she could control herself.
Wei Fu could sense the magistrate's wife's fondness for her, and she smiled adorably, "Thank you, auntie. I really like these."
Well, Wei Fu has already eaten all three kinds of snacks.
Because time was short, the prefect's wife did not prepare too many fancy things.
When the prefect's wife heard Wei Fu call her aunt, she was happier than hearing her own son call her mother.
"As long as Princess likes it, I will personally make pork elbow for you later." Many people know that Wei Fu likes to eat pork elbow.
She did not correct Wei Fu's way of addressing her. The princess called her aunt, so she was aunt.
No rebuttal accepted.
When the prefect finished talking to the prince, he came over with a serious expression, and saw his wife holding the princess with a very satisfied look on her face, and her behavior was extremely strange, holding the princess and sucking her wildly!
The prefect stumbled, but the prince quickly supported him and prevented him from falling to the ground.
After an awkward thank you, the prefect immediately apologized to the crown prince: "My humble wife is very fond of the princess and even bought a small portrait of her at a high price to worship. That's why she behaved so disrespectfully. I will go and teach her a lesson right now."
After saying this, he didn't dare wait for the prince to express his opinion. He went over and pulled the wife of the prefect to let go of Wei Fu, pulled her aside and said through gritted teeth: "What the hell are you doing?"
The prefect's wife let go of his hand and sneered, "Is the princess angry?"
When the prefect went to see Wei Fu, he saw Wei Fu feeding snacks to the prince and Su Cheng, and then serving tea. He had a sweet smile on his face and did not look unhappy at all.
And seeing her lively and lovely smile and energetic appearance, people feel relaxed for no reason and happy from the bottom of their hearts.
The prefect could only say, "Be more restrained. She is the princess! The emperor holds her in the palm of his hand."
The prefect's wife was full of pride: "The princess calls me aunt~~~"
"Don't treat me as an outsider."
Then she gloated and said, "Sir, you should go back to the backyard and see what the old lady is doing!"
"You have been discussing matters for so long. I want to take the princess back to the backyard, because even I, the old lady, dare not take the princess back."
Wei Fu and his companions were exhausted from the long journey, so they should have been given a place to rest first. It would have been fine if the prince and his companions had something else to do, but Wei Fu and his companions could have rested first.
It’s just that someone came to tell the wife of the prefect that the old lady was drying Buddhist scriptures in the yard and had brought a bunch of monks with her.
Because the old lady and the prefect's wife had different beliefs, they were always at odds with each other and often fought in the backyard.
The prefect didn't need to go back to see what was happening in the backyard. He knew what was happening. His forehead was throbbing. "You go and greet the guests for me first. I'll be back soon."
The prefect's wife waved her hand in disdain.
The prefect was gone for a long time before returning with a tired look on his face. The prefect's wife then led Wei Fu and the others to stay. Wei Fu and Su Rui were arranged to stay in the guest rooms in the backyard, while Long Yin and the others were naturally arranged to stay in the guest rooms in the front yard. When Wei Fu and the others went to the yard, they could still smell the scent of incense.
Knowing that there was an old lady in the mansion, the prince said he wanted to visit her. Although he was of noble status, he still knew how to respect the elderly and love the young.
The prefect declined politely. The prince knew etiquette, but he could not ignore it.
But what the prince encountered this time was a big deal!
He had a huge headache. On the one hand, he was worried about offending the Crown Prince and Wei Fu, and on the other hand, he was worried that General Mao and his men would go all out and kill them directly.
