Chapter 452: Chapter 452: Weiyang wins Lingxuan’s Buddha beads
Tang Yuanyuan pulled Weiyang back. “Although you don’t need to spend money to become a monk, it’s still difficult. You Can’t eat the meat and meat that you love.”
Weiyang pondered for a moment. For the sake of meat, she decided not to become a monk for the time being.
After the wedding banquet, Weiyang returned to the Princess’residence.
The Princess’residence was given to her by her parents the moment she was born. The carvings, beams, and paintings were all the most exquisite in the world.
The first thing Wei Yang did when she returned to the Princess’residence was to count her own money.
Today, her second brother was marrying a princess. As her younger sister, she had no choice but to take out a lot of silver as a gift..
The palace maid beside Wei Yang, Xiao Mang, said, “Master, you’ve counted it several times. Don’t worry, there won’t be a lack of silver notes.”
Weiyang said, “I can only be at ease if I count them every day. I don’t need to worry about the restaurants. I have nothing to do. I’m quite happy counting banknotes.”
Qiao Nihong and Qiao Nichang had not seen Princess Weiyang for a long time.
Knowing that she had come to Chang ‘an, Qiao Nihong brought Qiao Nichang to see her. She did not know if she was as stingy as she was when she was young.
When Weiyang heard that her two cousins had come, she let them in and asked the palace maids to serve them tea.
Qiao nihong teased, “I thought I wouldn’t even be able to get a cup of tea at the Princess’residence. The princess is not as stingy as they say.”
Weiyang said, “Cousin, it’s been a long time. You teased me the moment you came.
No matter how stingy I am, I know my manners. I still have to spend money where I should. “What business do you two cousins have with me?”
Qiao nihong smiled and said, “You haven’t been back to Chang ‘an for a long time. Do you want us to take you to Chang ‘an city to play?”
“No, it costs money to play,”Weiyang refused. “Thank you for your kindness, Cousins.”
Qiao nihong said, “We are going to Yuan Xi Temple. It doesn’t cost money to pray at Yuan Xi Temple. Do you want to go with us?”
Wei Yang nodded when she heard that they could play without money. “Sure, let’s go together.”
The incense in the Yuan Xi Temple had always been very popular.
The day after Lu Ang and Qian Qingyu got married, they also came to the Yuan Xi Temple to rebuild the golden body of the bodhisattva.
Lu Ang said to Qian qingyu, “Back then, I asked for a fortune here and it was quite effective.
There was a marriage tree in front. Back then, Nihon asked for four marriage talismans here and asked us to wear them to pray for her. Later, Qian Yu, Nihon, and I all had a home, but she was gone.”
Hearing Lu Ang’s words, Qian Qingyu remembered how deep her misunderstanding was. She didn’t want to say it out loud and let Lu Ang make fun of her again.
When the two of them entered the hall, they saw Weiyang, Nihon, and Nihon in the hall.
After Weiyang knelt down, the novice monk took a tray and walked to her side. Lu Weiyang did not know what he meant.
She looked at Qiao Nichang and Qiao Nichang who took ten hundred taels of silver notes and placed them on the tray.
Weiyang widened her eyes and said, “I forgot to bring the silver when I was in a hurry.”
The novice monk looked at the gold hairpin on Weiyang’s head.
Wei Yang gritted his teeth and pulled out a gold hairpin from his head and placed it on the tray.
The young novice monk did not take the tray away. Instead, he handed it to Wei Yang. Wei Yang gritted his teeth again and took off the silver bracelet on his right hand. The gold bracelet on his left hand was placed on the small tray.
Only then did the young novice monk take the tray and leave.
Wei Yang’s breathing stopped and he almost fainted. Qiao Nihon, who was at the side, quickly supported Wei Yang.
Wei Yang whispered into Qiao ni Hong’s ear, “Cousin, you lied to me! Didn’t you say that you don’t need to spend money to come to the temple? How Are They Merciful Monks? They are simply bandits!”
Qiao ni Hong:”…”
Lu Ang stepped forward and asked, “Wei Yang, what’s wrong? Do you feel uncomfortable?”
Wei Yang forced a smile and shook his head. “It’s nothing. Second Brother and sister-in-law, are you also here to worship Buddha?”
Lu ang nodded and said, “A few years ago, I asked for a fortune here. It was very effective, so I came here today to reconstruct the golden body of Bodhisattva…”
Wei Yang turned around and saw two guards carrying a small box of gold. She felt dizzy and stuffy again.
Wei Yang went to the back of the temple to get some fresh air. She was afraid that she would really faint if she saw her second brother squandering so much.
Wei Yang had always been used to being free outside and did not like her maidservants following her. As she walked into the back of the mountain, she saw the word “Abbot”written on it.
There was an ancient ginkgo tree inside. At this time, the ginkgo leaves were slightly yellow and fell with the wind, landing on the monk’s kasaya inside. Wei Yang looked over and saw that the monk’s kasaya inside was different from the others’red-gold color, he was wearing a white-gold kasaya.
Great Tang had a rule that only the abbots of a temple could wear kasaya of this color.
The abbots of a temple were also the masters of this temple. Wei Yang thought of the silver taels that she had been cheated of just now, so she entered and saw the monk’s appearance clearly.
Wei Yang had seen all the beauties since she was a child. Her parents and brothers were all beauties. However, when she saw the young monk in front of her, she was still stunned by his appearance.
“Amitabha, female benefactor, are you lost?”
Wei Yang said, “No, I saw master playing chess alone and wanted to spar with him. I wonder if Master can teach me a game?”
Ling Xuan raised his head to look at the girl who had just reached marriageable age and said, “Female benefactor, if you don’t mind, I will naturally accompany you.”
Wei Yang sat opposite Ling Xuan and a ginkgo leaf fell right in front of her. Wei Yang held the ginkgo leaf and placed a white chess piece on Tianyuan.
Ling Xuan placed a black stone on the star position.
Wei Yang played with the ginkgo leaf with one hand and played chess with the other. After twenty stones, Wei Yang said, “Master, it’s not fun just playing chess. Why don’t we make a bet?”
Ling Xuan held the Buddha bead with one hand and said, “Amitabha. Buddhists don’t gamble.”
Wei Yang said, “But isn’t winning or losing a chess game between two black and white stones also a Gamble?”
Ling Xuan fiddled with the Buddha bead and said, “In that case, what do you want to Bet?”
Wei Yang immediately took a fancy to the Buddha bead in Ling Xuan’s hand. The hairpin on her head and the bracelet on her hand added up to at least five taels of gold.
The Buddha bead in Ling Xuan’s hand was carved from precious wood, which was just enough to match her five taels of gold.
“If I win, I want the Buddha bead in your hand.”
Ling Xuan asked, “What if the female benefactor loses?”
“How can I lose?”When she was young, she learned chess from her father. Later, when she went to Lingnan to learn chess from her grandfather, many go masters lost to her in chess.
Wei Yang said, “If I lose, I will come to the temple every day to clean the fallen leaves for a month.”
“Okay,”Ling Xuan replied.
Wei Yang continued playing chess. After the time it takes for two incense sticks to burn, Wei Yang’s playing slowed down a lot. It had been a long time since she had seen such a difficult opponent. If she had known earlier, she would not have played Tianyuan first.
Every time Wei Yang played, it was very difficult. In the end, she won by a fluke.
Wei Yang also saw the astonishment in the eyes of the monk in front of her.
Ling Xuan put his palms together and said, “Amitabha. The chess skills of the female almsgiver are unparalleled in the world. I am willing to accept my loss and give this Buddhist bead to you.”
Wei Yang took the Buddhist bead from Ling Xuan and said, “Thank you, Master.”
