[R18] Quick Travel Heroine’s Counterattack Plan (h) – Chapter 270 of “Quick Travel Heroine’s Counterattack Plan (h)” [English]

Girl Queen Mother(11)

The royal family has a rule that every year, the Queen Mother will choose a day to lead everyone in the harem to Yunshan Temple to worship Buddha and pray for good weather for the country, and this year is no exception.The Ministry of Rites reviewed the almanac and decided to go to Yunshan Temple to pay homage to the Buddha on May 12th three days later.

However, the current emperor has no concubines. It is said that the entire harem, but in fact, it is only the Queen Mother Leng Xiyan who goes to worship the Buddha.This situation has lasted for two years. However, this year, for the first time, Xuanyuan Ce proposed to accompany the Queen Mother to worship Buddha. Although the courtiers found it strange, they did not raise any objection.

On May 12th, Leng Xiyan was dragged up early in the morning to wash and change clothes.After struggling for almost an hour, I finally got it done.Leng Xiyan was wearing a dress that represented the Queen Mother’s status, with solemn makeup on her face, and she looked very majestic.However, only she knew that she was almost suffocated by the weight of her clothes, jewelry, etc.Thinking of having to wear such heavy clothes all day long, Leng Xiyan felt that she was beyond love.

After dressing up, it was time to set off.A large group of people arrived outside the Qinzheng Hall. Xuanyuan Ce was already waiting there, and the ministers were also lined up neatly.It was the first time that Xuanyuan Ce saw her dressed so formally, and a smile appeared on his lips.Caihe helped Leng Xiyan get into the carriage, and Xuanyuan Ce also got into the chariot.Eunuch Yu next to him shouted loudly: “Let’s set off!”

The ministers knelt down one after another and said in unison respectfully: “I respectfully see off your Majesty, and respectfully see off the Queen Mother…” Under the gaze of the ministers, a large group of people set off for Yunshan Temple.

The carriage was swaying along the way, and Leng Xiyan was not full of sleep, so she swayed and fell asleep.I don’t know how much time passed, but I heard someone outside shouting: “Stop the sedan!” Then, the carriage stopped where it was, and Leng Xiyan woke up.

Caihe helped her get out of the carriage, and Leng Xiyan looked at the surrounding environment. Surrounded by mountains, she seemed to hear chanting in her ears, and the smell of incense was still in the air.Looking at the stairs in front of us, they are continuous and seemingly endless. The top of the stairs is Yunshan Temple.She suddenly had a bad premonition: This…couldn’t he have to climb up by himself?

The next moment, Caihe’s words confirmed her thoughts: “Empress Dowager, let’s go up…” Leng Xiyan cried sadly and began to climb the stairs resignedly.When Xuanyuan Ce saw this, a smile flashed in his eyes.When she climbed the last step, Leng Xiyan almost cried with joy.In front of him was the main hall of Yunshan Temple. In front of the main hall, an old monk stood there, presumably the abbot of the temple.

He came forward and said respectfully: “I see your Majesty and the Queen Mother!”

Xuanyuan Ce said: “Master Xuankong doesn’t need to be polite…”

“Back to Your Majesty, back to the Queen Mother, the palace is ready, do you want to start now?” The two nodded.

Master Xuankong led them into the hall.In the hall, the monks knelt on futons and lined up neatly.In the middle of the hall is a huge Buddha statue, with incense burning in front of it.In such a solemn hall, Leng Xiyan’s expression couldn’t help but become serious.

Xuanyuan Ce and Leng Xiyan knelt on the two futons in the front and began to listen to Master Xuankong’s chanting: Avalokitesvara Bodhisattva, walking in the deep Prajna Paramita for a long time, saw that the five aggregates are empty and survived all hardships.Relics, color is not different from emptiness, emptiness is not different from color, color is emptiness, emptiness is color, and the same is true for feelings, thoughts, and actions…

Leng Xiyan listened carefully and felt that her heart had broadened a lot.Xuanyuan Ce looked at her and saw that she was listening attentively. A flash of admiration flashed in his eyes, and he felt even more moved by her being so serious.

Next it was the time to say the sacrificial speech.Xuanyuan Ce opened his mouth and read: I am sincere and frightened and tell the God of Heaven and the gods of the four directions: Since I came to the throne, I have respected the instructions of my ancestors, sympathized with the sufferings of the people, and cured the five qi… Present various gifts such as cang bi, jade gui, three animals, sake, and four bamboo sticks, and burn the above gifts, praying to God and the gods to share them!

After that, there was a salute and incense burning.Xuanyuan Ce and Leng Xiyan each took three sticks of incense from the hands of the little novice monk on the side, held the incense and bowed respectfully to the Buddha, then inserted it into the incense burner, and finally knelt on the futon again and kowtowed three times respectfully before they were finally finished.

Master Xuankong said: “The ceremony has been completed. Please go to the emperor and the queen mother to rest. The backyard room has been prepared…”

Xuanyuan Ce nodded and said, “I’m sorry to trouble Master Xuankong…”

Led by the young novice monk, a group of people headed to the backyard.The backyard is divided into small independent courtyards. Leng Xiyan lives in the Plum Courtyard, and Xuanyuan Ce lives in the Bamboo Courtyard. The two courtyards are right next door.

The young novice monk said: “Back to Your Majesty, back to the Queen Mother, the wing has arrived. Please have a good rest, the two benefactors. I will leave first…” After saying this, the young novice monk left.

Xuanyuan Ce and Leng Xiyan parted at the entrance of the courtyard.Leng Xiyan walked into the plum courtyard. There was a plum tree planted in the courtyard, with plum blossoms in full bloom. When the wind blew, the plum blossoms fluttered down one after another, creating a unique artistic conception.

But now Leng Xiyan had no intention of admiring it. She walked into the wing room. The decoration of the wing room was very simple, with a bed, a cabinet, and a table, but it was very clean. The bedding and pillows were all brand new. Leng Xiyan was very satisfied.With Caihe’s help, she took off her heavy dress, jewelry and headdress, took off the makeup on her face, washed herself a little, lay on the bed and fell asleep quickly.
