Chapter 397: The First Disciple
As soon as Yunfeng and Xun Guanniang came closer, Concubine Pei took Donghai Wang Chong and saluted: "I, mother and son, thank the general for taking care of you these days. Now that Wang Dun is defeated, we are ready to return to Jinling. Come here."
Farewell to the general.[ . ]"
Although he had learned from Zhang Lingyun that Concubine Pei was leaving, Yunfeng was still secretly relieved when he heard about it. This woman's identity was too sensitive, and staying with her would be a source of instability, so he quickly returned the favor.
: "Mrs. Pei is too polite to talk about taking care of her. It's fine that you and King Donghai don't mind that the reception is rough. When do you plan to return?"
"Early tomorrow morning!" Concubine Pei responded lightly, and looked at Xun Guanniang again, with a sense of reluctance. Concubine Pei had never had a close friend, not to mention her past humiliating experiences.
Specially, no men or women dared to approach her easily, so they could only live alone as a widow.
Although Jinling is leisurely, it is also lonely. Over the past few days, Xun Guanniang has been running to accompany her from time to time, and Concubine Pei has developed a kind of best friend-like feeling for Xun Guanniang. When she thinks that she may never see her again in the future, it is unavoidable.
It was empty, and there was a sour feeling in my nose.
Concubine Pei's eyes seemed to be covered with mist, and then she secretly sighed and said with a forced smile: "Sister Guan Niang, it's time for you to return to Shanggui with General Yun this time? I don't know when to start? Sister
I'm afraid I won't be able to come to see you off, so I wish you a happy marriage first."
Xun Guanniang's pretty face turned red, she shook her head and said, "If my sister doesn't go back, if he has time during the day, he can go to Jinling to visit my sister."
"Oh? Why?" Concubine Pei was greatly surprised. At the same time, she felt a sense of relief. Then her heart tightened: 'I have a lover separated by nearly ten thousand miles. How can I be so selfish?'
Just when she was blaming herself, Xun Guanniang's voice came into her ears: "My sister still has some unfinished business in Jiankang, not to mention that she has promised the master to stay and renovate the mountain gate into a main altar. I will wait for Duan Shan to come again next time to build it."
Kang, my sister will go back with him."
Concubine Pei came back to her senses and asked repeatedly: "What's going on? Sister Guan Niang, aren't you from the Huaxian Sect? Why do you want to change your name to Zhengyiyi?"
Xun Guanniang smiled complicatedly: "It's not just a name change, it's actually that from tomorrow onwards, there will only be Zhengyiyi in the world and there will no longer be Huaxian Sect..." Next, he introduced Zhengyiyi in detail.
The whole story.
Concubine Pei listened silently, but her face kept changing. Xun Guanniang stopped talking for a long time and still remained silent. Yunfeng and Xun Guanniang couldn't help but look at each other. They were both a little confused. Xun Guanniang was waiting to ask, Concubine Pei
But he gave a solemn salute: "Sister Guan Niang, I have an unkind request. I wonder if you can agree to it?"
"Sister, why are you like this? Just say it straight away...\\..\\" Xun Guanniang helped Concubine Pei up. The look of surprise in her beautiful eyes became even stronger.
"Sister, I would like to join the righteous family, be taught the fasting rituals by the Taoist priests, and bow before Mr. Zakikawa." There was a boom! Concubine Pei's words were like thunder exploding in front of the forest, making the three of them confused.
faint.
Wang Chong of the East China Sea called out quickly: "Mom, don't be confused. You have a noble status, how can you enter the Taoist sect?"
Xun Guanniang also advised: "Sister, what King Donghai said is reasonable. What's more, what will King Donghai do if you enter the Taoist sect?"
Concubine Pei waved her hand and said: "Sister, there is no need to persuade him anymore. Chong'er is not young anymore. What does it mean to be a vassal in Jinling alone? What's more, after inheriting Tongyin, the king of the East China Sea, who in the world dares to touch him? Although my sister understands that she has nothing to do with him.
No destiny for immortality
, but I want to accumulate some blessings through Qingxiu to atone for my late husband's sins, and also to make myself feel at ease." Then he turned around and ordered: "Chong'er, you can return to Jinling early tomorrow morning, and my mother will be there from now on.
Stay in Jiankang."
Xun Guanniang still asked: "Sister, you have a special status, will the court be willing to do so? Don't let any troubles arise!"
"Humph!" Concubine Pei snorted coldly: "Why doesn't the imperial court think that it is too lenient? What does it have to do with the Sima family if my sister enters Taoism or Buddhism? Unless Mr. Zhikawa is afraid of the imperial court and is worried about this.
Don't worry about that, otherwise my sister will really be in trance. Let's see what the court can do to me."
Xun Guanniang was speechless for a while and couldn't help but look at Yunfeng. Unexpectedly, Yunfeng nodded and said: "It is a rare blessing for Mrs. Pei to be able to worship Mr. Zhichuan and practice the Golden Elixir Dao. Besides, the Zhengyi Dao does not have as many rules and regulations as Buddhism."
. As long as you act in accordance with benevolence, justice, propriety, wisdom and trust, Mr. Zakikawa should be fine. If he resists, someone will go and explain!"
Yunfeng considered the problem entirely from the perspective of interests. The benefits of Concubine Pei's joining the Zhengyi School far outweighed the disadvantages. Her status as the widow of King Yue of Donghai was remarkable and could greatly improve the Zhengyi School among the scholars.
of appeal.
Xun Guanniang was slightly stunned. Yunfeng's cheerfulness was beyond her expectation. Then she understood what this man was thinking and couldn't help but glare at him angrily!
However, Concubine Pei was filled with joy and saluted again: "I have thanked General Yun, please take care of this matter." I am afraid no one can guess Concubine Pei's thoughts. Why atone for the sins of King Donghai is all nonsense.
Her marriage was a political marriage. When she married Wang Yue of Donghai, she was only a hairpin, and Wang Yue of Donghai was already an old man. Even she didn't believe that there were feelings.
Concubine Pei had only one purpose, she was reluctant to leave Xun Guanniang! She was afraid of returning to Jinling to live a lonely life, so she would rather join the Taoist sect than stay in Jiankang, otherwise she would have no reason to stay. As for how many days
For the time being, she couldn't care about what would happen if Xun Guanniang left in the future. The delay lasted for a while. Perhaps Concubine Pei herself didn't realize that if she took another step forward in her feelings for Xun Guanniang, it would be Lily!
Xun Guanniang couldn't guess what Concubine Pei was thinking, so she shook her head helplessly: "Since my sister insists on it, please go up the mountain with Guan early tomorrow morning. By the way, Duanshan, you can go back by yourself, as a teacher and sister."
I have something to tell you, and I may have to come back later in the evening." After saying that, Concubine Pei and King Donghai rushed to Yunfeng to say goodbye, and then left with Concubine Pei's hand.
Early the next morning, Xun Guanniang took Concubine Pei to see Ge Hong. Although Ge Hong was reluctant, he couldn't bear Concubine Pei's pleading and Yunfeng's push, so he had to accept the noble Princess Donghai as his first female disciple.
.Since the ritual of fasting and fasting has not yet been formulated, Concubine Pei can only be regarded as a registered disciple for the time being, and cannot officially become a disciple.
Yunfeng took advantage of this relatively free time, and together with Yu Wenjun, Zhang Lingyun and other girls, they also devoted themselves to the reconstruction of Zhengda Mountain Gate. The big sign on the archway needed to be replaced, and Yunfeng planned to ask Wang Xizhi to write it, including Xun Guanniang's courtyard.
, all the lay disciples had to move to the foot of the mountain to reflect the difference from the inner disciples, and the main hall also had to be renovated.
