Chapter 179
Han Youning pretended not to see Wu Jian's wink, and stood there straight.

Wang Guifei's aunt is the queen mother, her elder brother is the chief minister of the cabinet, and her son is the prince. Although she is only a noble concubine, because the queen is a careless person, she is actually in charge of the entire harem.

What she said, whether right or wrong, no one dared to refute.

Even if the matter of Yu Sui came up to the emperor, it would still be a bunch of courtiers who testified on behalf of the concubine Wang Guifei, and the emperor would at most calm down the matter for the sake of his father.

But she didn't want her father to accept the favor of the emperor and waste military merit for nothing.His father's military exploits were used against Marquis Yongping.

Just when the two eunuchs were about to step forward to arrest the man, Han Youning said, "The minister helped the empress to solve the disaster, why does the empress still blame the minister?"

Concubine Wang raised her hand to stop them, and said with a sneer, "Duke Ding has always been quiet, but he gave birth to a daughter who speaks eloquently. Tell me, how did you help me solve the disaster?"

Han Youning squatted down, picked up a few pieces of broken jade and put them on the low table, "Have you ever heard the saying that 'broken jade can prevent disaster'?"

"I've heard it before, but it's just a self-comforting statement from a broken jade. If you use this to exonerate yourself, I'm afraid it won't work."

Han Youning smiled slightly and asked, "Is your mother not feeling well recently?"

Concubine Wang glanced at her, "Do you know medical skills?"

Han Youning said, "My daughter is dull, she only understands a little bit. But my mother's health is not good, it can't be seen by medical skills."

She understands a little bit, but it's really just "a little bit". It's all master Xuanzhi coaxed and tricked her to teach her, and she remembers some of it.

Han Youning pointed to the broken jade on the table and said, "This jade incense burner is often grinded by the empress, and it has been bound up with you for life and death. The servant girl saw that the jade was broken so badly, it must be a disaster that would endanger the life of the empress, and you just now There is no danger of a sword for Yu to stop, so it must be that the empress is ill."

Wang Guifei looked at the broken jade on the table and thought about it in her heart.

In recent months, she has been exhausted, unable to cheer up, and her temper is more irritable than ever.

The envoy Liu and several imperial physicians came to examine her pulse, and they only said that it was due to the inevitable accumulation of dryness in autumn and winter, and prescribed a prescription to remove dryness and moisten the lungs, but she did not get much better after taking it.

Because of this, she has not often met with the emperor recently, so as not to make him displeased by an accident.

Concubine Wang Guifei was a bit uncertain when she spoke again, she was not as strong as before, "Then what do you mean, if the jade is broken, the disaster of this palace will be solved, and the body will be healed?"

"Jade has saved you from disasters, and your body was broken into pieces. You have to put it well. First wrap the broken jade with a red cloth, and then find a clean place full of spiritual energy to bury it. It is to bury the jade, and it is considered a good thing for it." Destination. Then find a new jade incense burner to replace it, but the new jade incense burner must be purified in front of the Buddha for seven days to be more appropriate, and your empress..."

Han Youning paused, but stopped talking.

Wang Guifei listened with half-closed eyes, and seeing her stop, she said impatiently, "Hurry up."

"Your Majesty needs to fast for seven days with a pure heart and asceticism, eat vegetarian food, burn vegetarian incense, and recite Buddhist scriptures. Only in this way can the root of evil and evil be removed."

Concubine Wang's face darkened, "Pretending to be a ghost, you are a boudoir girl, where did you learn these messy things?"

She opened her eyes suddenly, "Did Concubine De teach you to say that?"

Wu Jian was also sweating for Han Youning, "Hey little girl, although he was a bit quick-witted to make up such an excuse.But why do you insist on making Wang Guifei fast? Isn't it because you can't serve the emperor for seven days?
It's your fault if she doesn't get annoyed!
Wu Jian laughed and said, "This is the first time the county lord has entered the palace, and only saw the emperor and your empress, how could she know Concubine De?"

Concubine Wang said softly, "You don't have to smooth things over. Don't you all say that the real Phoenix is ​​back? The third prince and Duke Ding have been walking around a lot, and Concubine De took advantage of her son's position to join Duke Ding's mansion, so what's wrong with that?" possible?"

Han Youning smiled and said, "Your Majesty, you may not know that the third prince once angrily scolded the courtier's daughter in the Qingchun Building. The clay figurines are still angry, and the courtier's daughter is not so magnanimous to help them."

"None is the best. Then tell me, where did you know about these sayings that broken pieces of jade can prevent disasters?"

Han Youning smiled, "My daughter's grandmother believes in Buddhism, and often takes her daughter to the temple to worship the Buddha. The monks in that temple are good teachers, and they are greedy for the snacks made by the ministers, so they insist on accepting the ministers as lay disciples. After coming and going, the ministers learn a little Things, among them is the item of jade fragments to prevent disasters."

Master Xuanzhi knew a lot of complicated things, and wanted to teach everything. In order to trick her into learning more, he tried his best to make up a lot of stories and allusions, and then incorporated the things he wanted to teach.

As for why it became more and more difficult to teach in the end, it was not because the apprentice was benefiting, but because he could no longer make up stories in his mind.

The maid in charge of the palace, Bai Zhi, smiled, and interjected, "The county lord learned something that he didn't know much from a monk in the countryside, so I told my empress that she fasted and worshiped the Buddha, because she felt that there were no good temples in the capital city. ?"

She took a white jade pendant and tied it around Wang Guifei's waist, and said, "Just say this jade pendant was consecrated by Master Qingde of Ling'an Temple. Master Qingde is highly respected and profound in Buddhism. Master Xuanzhi came from the same clan, so we should call him Master Xuanzhi Master Uncle."

Concubine Wang stroked the jade pendant and stopped walking, feeling a little more at ease. It's good that no one mentions these evil things, but once they are mentioned, believe it or not, they will always feel uneasy.

"Well, you send someone to Ling'an Temple, add two thousand taels of sesame oil money, invite Master Qingde to come into the palace, and say that the palace wants to set up a small Buddhist hall in Yikun Palace, let him give advice .Presumably so, he can agree to come over.”

Master Qingde devotes himself to practice, and it is not easy to leave the mountain, even if you are a royal.

But he still approves of such a pious thing as setting up a Buddhist hall. Before the small Buddhist hall was set up in Kunning Palace, he personally came to give directions and arrange it.

Bai Zhi responded with a smile, and glanced at Han Youning who was scratching her fingers, with a bit of arrogance, "What is the county lord doing?"

Han Youning said, "I'm thinking about how to discuss seniority with Master Qingde."

Bai Zhi sneered, "The county lord speaks so loudly. After worshiping a monk in the countryside, he feels that he has stepped into Buddhism? Even if you count all ten fingers, you still can't reach the seniority of Master Qingde."

The palace guards in the palace also lowered their heads and suppressed a smile.

The chairperson of Zhaoping County took a more serious tone.

Wu Jian also sighed, not knowing how to help her.

His mind was spinning quickly, thinking of how to find an excuse to leave, and go to the imperial study to report to the rescuers.

Now that the matter has come to this point, I don't care whether I will offend Wang Guifei.

Han Youning said sternly, "Ten fingers are not necessary, three fingers are enough."

This time even Wang Guifei, who never liked to laugh, laughed heartily.

She laughed for a long time, pointed at Han Youning and said, "You do resemble your father, very arrogant!"
