Chapter 463: Chapter 463, return to Chang ‘an prime minister temple

Ling Xuan held Weiyang’s hand and said, “When I was young, I learned of my identity from my senior brother. When the Zhao family came to the temple to offer incense, I met Lady Zhao once.

“When I was young, I asked her why she didn’t want me. She said that this was the only way I could live.

“Moreover, Master Yitong was the abbot of the Prime Minister Temple. Master Yitong said that I was fated to be Buddha’s son, so she agreed to send me to the temple.”

Lu Weiyang had grown up in a harmonious family, but she also understood that the two brothers were fighting for the title of nobility.

The second uncle of the Zhao family would not be so easily willing to give up the position of the imperial residence to his little nephew.

Lu Weiyang reached out and touched Ling Xuan’s bald head.

Ling Xuan held Lu Weiyang’s hand, and his eyes revealed a hint of danger as he said, “Weiyang!”

Lu Weiyang smiled and said, “My mother always touches my head like this when I feel uncomfortable. I know that you must feel very wronged when you think about what happened when you were young, so I want to touch your head too!”

Ling Xuan let go of Weiyang’s hand and let Weiyang touch his head.

The candlelight was lit at the side, and Lu Weiyang and Ling Xuan leaned against each other and gradually fell asleep.

The few secret guards outside did not know whether they should barge in or not. If they did not, they were afraid that their master would blame them. If they barged in and ruined the princess’good deed, they would not have to think about living a good life.

They had been on tenterhooks for the whole night and did not hear the voices that should not have come from inside. They let out a sigh of relief.

Lu Weiyang and Ling Xuan returned to Luoyang City. Ling Xuan was pulled into a ready-made clothing store by Lu Weiyang.

After changing out of his kasaya, he changed into a black round-necked robe, and put on a crown, he became a young man dressed in fresh clothes.

Ling Xuan had been subject to Buddhist rules all his life, and he had never worn clothes other than a monk’s robe.

Lu Weiyang paid the silver in satisfaction.

Qiao Nihong happened to see this scene. “TSK tsk, our little Princess Weiyang has finally changed her personality. The Sun Won’t rise from the west, will it?”

Lu Weiyang snorted. “Cousin, cousin Nichang will be getting married next spring. Do you have someone to marry?”

“You!”Qiao Nihong Sighed. “Alright, I helped you so much yesterday. You turned around and treated me like this. Cousin’s heart is cold. My Heart is cold. Master Ling Xuan…”

Lu Weiyang quickly covered Qiao Nihong’s mouth and said, “The Yuan Xi temple is very effective in seeking marriage. Cousin will definitely be able to find a good marriage if you go to the Yuan Xi temple a few more times.”

Qiao nihong smiled and said, “Then I’ll leave it to you.”

Lu Weiyang held Ling Xuan’s hand and said, “I haven’t had a good time in Luoyang city in the past few days. You have to make it up to me!”

Ling Xuan nodded. He had already decided to return to the secular world, so he naturally had no objections to Lu Weiyang.

Lu Weiyang first pulled Ling Xuan to the palace to build a snowman and said, “I went to Lingnan when I was very young. There was no snow in Lingnan, and the snow in Lin ‘an was not very heavy. I’ve always thought of the Snowman I used to build when I was young.”

Ling Xuan helped Lu Weiyang build a snowman. “The Prime Minister Temple is on the mountain. Even though it was the first place in Chang ‘an where it snowed, I often built snowmen with my senior and Junior Brothers when I Was Young.”

Lu Weiyang put a piece of coal into the Snowman’s eyes and asked, “If you want to return to the secular world from the Prime Minister Temple, will you regret it?”

Ling Xuan replied, “No.”

Lu Weiyang smiled faintly. “It would have been better if you had said so earlier. You’ve made me sad for so many days. Look, my eyes are much purer than before.”

Ling Xuan lowered his head and looked into Lu Weiyang’s eyes. He gently planted a kiss on her eyes, “I promise that I won’t make you sad again in the future, and I won’t Make You Cry again. When I return to Chang ‘an, I’ll give the abbot’s position to someone else and immediately return to the secular world.”

“But I may not be able to marry you right away.”

“Why?”Lu Weiyang asked.

Ling Xuan said, “I have no achievements and fame. After renouncing asceticism, I have nothing. If I want to marry Princess Shang, I’m not qualified.”

Lu Weiyang said helplessly, “But I have a lot of silver. Although I was a little stingy in the past, I won’t feel sorry for giving you silver.”

Ling Xuan smiled faintly. “How can I Use Your Silver?”

Lu Weiyang said, “I don’t want it. Although I don’t want to get married so early, what if you have no fame and fortune and want to go back to being a monk? “No, you must marry me immediately. At worst, you can fight for fame and fortune after marriage.

“It doesn’t matter if you don’t want my silver. We can go to a street stall and play chess. Last time, I played the exquisite chess game you set up on the street, and I even got fifty taels of silver.”

Ling Xuan said, “Any gambler who gathers together can not get more than five taels of silver once.”

“Five taels of silver is enough. I’m very easy to feed. It’s not like I haven’t eaten steamed buns and pickled vegetables before. That year, during the drought in Lingnan, I mingled among the disaster victims and relied on pickled vegetables and porridge to survive.”

Lu Weiyang made a small snowball with his hand and said, “This is all I can eat in a day. Moreover, I’m still a princess. Royal Brother Won’t watch me starve.”

Ling Xuan smiled lightly. “Okay, after I return to the secular world, I will propose marriage to the two saints.”

Ling Xuan and Lu Weiyang returned to Chang ‘an together. When they reached the gate of Chang ‘an, they had no choice but to part ways. In the end, Ling Xuan still did not return to the secular world as the abbot of the Prime Minister Temple.

These few days, Ling Xuan had a great time in Luoyang. When Ling Xuan returned to the gate of the Prime Minister Temple, it felt like a lifetime had passed.

“Master Fangzhang, you’re back. These past few days, Old Madam Zhao and first Madam Zhao have been coming to the temple every day to look for you.”

Ling Xuan Sighed and said to the little novice monk, “Go and bring Ling Yuan, ling FA, and Ling Xin Junior Brothers to the Fangzhang Courtyard.”

“Yes, Fangzhang.”

Ling Xuan entered the FANGZHANG courtyard and knelt before the memorial tablets of the successive abbots of the Prime Minister’s Temple.

After his junior brothers arrived, they clasped their hands together and asked Ling Xuan, “Senior brother, do you have any instructions?”

These junior brothers were all much older than Ling Xuan, but Ling Xuan had grown up in the temple since he was young, so he naturally became his senior brother.

Ling Xuan said, “I have decided to renounce asceticism. In the future, the position of Abbot of the Prime Minister Temple will be handed over to junior brother Ling Yuan.”

Ling yuan immediately said, “Senior brother Abbot, you must not. Back then, when Master Yi Tong was around, he said that you and Buddha were fated to cultivate to become Buddha in the future. The Four Seas Buddhism holds you in high esteem. You must not renounce asceticism!”

“That’s right, senior brother abbot, if you renounce asceticism, what will happen to our Prime Minister Temple? The reputation of the Prime Minister Temple is great, and you are also the National Master. If you are not in the Prime Minister Temple, the reputation of the prime minister temple will definitely be greatly weakened.”

Ling Xuan heard Ling Xin’s words and said, “When you enter the Buddhist sect to cultivate Buddhism, you don’t care about fame or obscurity. If you meditate and recite scriptures and do more good deeds, you will definitely be rewarded with good fortune and become a Buddha.”

Ling Yuan said, “But senior brother Fangzhang, why do you want to renounce asceticism? In a few days, the great masters of the Japanese and Tubo will come to my great Tang. At that time, we may not be able to have your attainments in Buddhism.”

“Yes, senior brother, you are the National Master. If you want to renounce asceticism, I’m afraid the imperial court will not be willing!”
