  Chapter 377 Prince

  Duanwangfu.

  The south of the inner city was built during the period of the first emperor, covering an area of ​​about 60 mu.

   It consists of five main entrances, seven main halls, nine wings on both sides, seven shrines, and seven back buildings.

  The building is majestic and magnificent, with splendid decoration.

   There are rockery and flowing water, lakes and ponds, nine-curved corridors, waterside pavilions, martial arts training grounds, etc., everything.

   It was noon at this time.

  After having lunch, Duan Wang Nangongke is playing football with his only daughter, Nangong Xiaorui.

  Football in this era was passed from the western countries. It is quite similar to football, but the field is smaller and the number of people can be arbitrary.

  Although Nangong Xiaorui is only nine years old, she is wearing a red dress with a ponytail and knee pads. She looks heroic and runs like the wind, as if she has endless strength.

   But Nangong Ke was sweating profusely, out of breath, and could no longer run.

  Seven tall men stood side by side outside the arena, the oldest was nearly thirty, and the youngest was only in his teens, all cheering for Nangong Xiaorui.

  They are all warriors, and at the same time, they are all brothers of Nangong Xiaorui.

  Nan Gongke ran for a while, but couldn't run anymore, stopped and waved his hands and said: "Xiaorui, the father is dying, take a break, take a break."

  Nangong Xiaorui hooked her little foot, and the ball flew into her hand, she curled her mouth and said, "Father is really useless, don't come to play with me in the future."

  Nan Gongke took the towel handed over by the servant, wiped the sweat from his forehead, and said with an apologetic smile, "Don't be angry, Xiaorui, let Father rest for a while, and Father will play with you later."

"Humph!"

  Nangong Xiaorui turned her head and said, "Seventh Brother, you will replace King Father."

  The sixteen or seventeen-year-old boy immediately stepped onto the stage and said with a smile, "Okay, Xiaorui, I won't let you."

   "Tch, I don't know who will let whom."

  Nangong Xiaorui threw the ball in his hand, it landed on his feet, and then kicked it out.

  Nangong Ke had to leave. While drinking water, a servant hurried over and said in a low voice, "My lord, Steward Ning just came to report that the princess of Nanguo County Wangfu is here and wants to visit you."

   Nangong Ke was taken aback when he heard the words, with a look of surprise on his face: "Brother Thirteen's daughter?"

  He suddenly remembered what happened at Jinchan Temple last time, his expression changed, and he said, "Besides her, who else?"

  The servant whispered: "There is also a young man in a Confucian robe."

   Nangong Ke sneered when he heard it, and said with a sneer: "As expected, I am here not to ask for something back, but to ask for a reward. Go, say that the king is on a lunch break, and he is not feeling well today, so I can't see you."

  The servant promised and left immediately.

  Just a few steps away, Nangong Ke suddenly said: "Come back!"

   Then he murmured again: "If I don't see you, I'm afraid Brother Thirteen will think too much if he finds out. Forget it, let's go."

   After speaking, he explained to the sons next to him and left.

  Luo Qingzhou followed Nangong Meijiao into the magnificent Duanwang Mansion, and waited in the living room.

   Nangong Meijiao sat drinking tea.

  As for him, he could only stand by the side and stand with his hands down.

  It doesn't matter in the Qin Mansion, but outside, naturally you have to abide by the rules.

   What's more, this is the Prince's Mansion.

   Nangong Meijiao took a sip of tea, turned to look at him and said, "Have you remembered all the skills I just taught you?"

  Luo Qingzhou said respectfully: "Princess, remember everything."

   Nangong Meijiao said indifferently: "Don't tell others what happened today, throw limestone in the future, and don't say that I taught you, did you hear?"

   "Yes, Princess."

  Luo Qingzhou responded respectfully.

  Nangong Meijiao put down her teacup and said, "Have you thought about what to do later?"

  Luo Qingzhou said: "Responsiveness."

  Nangong Meijiao glanced at him, then suddenly asked: "Then Firefox Tears, can you really get it?"

  Luo Qingzhou said: "Yes."

   Nangong Meijiao said: "Can you tell me which friend it is?"

  Luo Qingzhou lowered his head and said, "No."

   Nangong Meijiao narrowed her eyes and said, "Why? I won't say it."

  Luo Qingzhou said: "I promised my friend that I can't tell others. People can't stand without trust, Princess, I'm sorry."

"Humph!"

  Nangong Meijiao snorted coldly and did not speak again.

   Another moment passed.

  A middle-aged man dressed in brocade robes, surrounded by housekeepers and servants, came in from the door, and said with a smile on his face, "Niece Xian, why do you have time today to come to my house to play?"

   Nangong Meijiao quickly stood up, bowed and saluted: "Uncle Shiba, to be honest, I came here today to ask for something."

"Oh?"

   Nangong Ke's eyes flashed, and he looked at the boy behind her.

  Luo Qingzhou cupped his hands and bowed his head and said, "I'm going down to Luo Qingzhou, and I've seen the prince."

   Nangong Ke looked away, ignored him, and said with a smile on his face: "Niece Xian, if there is anything that Uncle Eighteen can help with, just say it."

Nangong Meijiao didn't beat around the bush, and said directly: "I heard from my father that there is a Xuantian Jade Maiden tree in Shiba Shu's house. My cousin is seriously ill, and she is short of medicine. It happens to be the morning dew from the Xuantian Jade Maiden tree, so today Come here to bother me. If Uncle Eighteen is convenient, I hope it can be done."

   "Xuantian Jade Girl Tree Morning Dew?"

   Nangong Ke was stunned for a moment when he heard the words, then frowned, and said, "Which liar told you that this is blind medicine?"

   Nangong Meijiao said: "Master Wukong of Jinchan Temple."

  As soon as this remark came out, Nangong Ke was startled, and his face changed color: "Master Wukong? Last time you went, did you see Master Wukong? How is this possible?"

   Nangong Meijiao said: "I did see it. The abbot asked people to ring the bell continuously, just to invite Master Wukong to come out, not because of an enemy invasion."

Nangong Ke was stunned for a while when he heard the words, and suddenly said: "So that's the case. No wonder the king sent people to investigate at the end, but found that there was no major incident and no enemies. At that time, the king was still wondering why the bell kept ringing. "

Immediately, with a face full of curiosity and disbelief, he said, "Niece Xian, how did you invite that Master Wukong out? I have been there many times, but I have never even seen the abbot's face. See, you actually invited that master out the first time you went there. If it hadn’t come from your mouth, this king would never believe it.”

   Nangong Meijiao looked up at the others behind him.

  Seeing this, Nangong Ke waved his hand and said, "Stand back, whoever dares to say a word in the conversation just now, come and see me!"

   "Yes, my lord."

  The butler and the servants retreated immediately.

   Nangong Ke said: "Don't worry, niece Xian, they are all old people in the house, loyal and loyal, no one will tell this matter."

  Nangong Meijiao then said: "Uncle Shiba, the abbot, the elders, and Master Wukong are all thanks to Luo Qingzhou for being able to come out to see us."

Nangong Ke was startled when he heard the words, looked at the young man behind her again, and said: "Could it be because of those few Buddhist gatha? But it's not very likely, if the abbot came out for those few Buddhist gatha, it's possible But that Master Wukong hasn't seen a visitor for a hundred years, so he shouldn't come out of the mountain easily. Kid, what did you do?"

  Luo Qingzhou said respectfully: "My lord, after the lord took those few Buddhist gatha away, I wrote another Buddhist gatha."

  Nan Gongke's expression darkened when he heard the words, and he said displeasedly: "Boy, you must have evidence for what you say. When did this king take some of your Buddhist verses? Who can prove it?"

  Luo Qingzhou bowed his head and said: "I made a mistake. What I mean is that after the prince took away the few Buddhist gatha I gave to the prince, I wrote another Buddhist gatha for Jinchan Temple."

After hearing this, Nangong Ke showed a satisfied smile on his face, and then said curiously: "I wrote another Buddhist gatha. This king doesn't believe it. There is something better than that [Body Is a Bodhi Tree]. Buddhist gatha."

   Nangong Meijiao suddenly interjected: "Uncle Eighteen, is it convenient for us to give us the morning dew from the Xuantian Jade Girl Tree?"

   Nangong Ke showed a smile on his face, and said: "Niece Xian, don't worry, wait until the king finishes asking."

  Luo Qingzhou said respectfully: "My lord, the last Buddhist gatha is indeed better than that one [Body Is a Bodhi Tree], and it is specifically for answering this Buddhist gatha."

"Oh?"

   Nangong Ke suddenly became excited, and quickly approached him and said, "Read! Read it out and listen to me!"

   Then suddenly said: "Wait a minute, let's write it out."

   Immediately, he took out a pen, ink, paper and inkstone from his sleeve, put it on the table next to him, grinded the ink himself, and said impatiently: "Come on, write on this paper!"

  Luo Qingzhou glanced at the ruby ​​ring on his finger, walked over to pick up the pen, waited for a while, dipped in ink and wrote it down.

   Nangong Ke stared at it with wide eyes. When he finished writing the last word, he suddenly said excitedly: "Name! Write your name too!"

  Luo Qingzhou hesitated for a moment, and wrote down the word "Qingzhou".

  Nan Gongke picked up the rice paper, read it several times, and muttered: "Bodhi has no tree, and the mirror is not a stand. There is nothing in the first place, where is the dust! No wonder, no wonder..."

   Immediately, he looked up at the young man in front of him and said, "No wonder the old monk is willing to come out to see you. These two Buddhist verses can indeed become the treasures of his Jinchan Temple!"

   Then he sighed suddenly: "It's a pity, it's a pity...this king's picture is not Chumo, hey..."

  Luo Qingzhou held a pen and cupped his hands and said: "If the prince likes Buddhist gatha, here are a few more, which have never been written."

  As soon as these words came out, Nangong Ke was surprised: "Really?"

  Luo Qingzhou nodded, picked up a pen and dipped it in ink, and wrote it out.

  Nan Gongke hurriedly studied the ink himself, and leaned beside him to watch.

  "Buddha does not see the body and knows that it is a Buddha. If there is knowledge, there is no other Buddha..."

   "The law is lawless, and the law is lawless. When it is impossible now, the law has never been law..."

   "The heart is the same as the realm of the void, showing the law of the same void..."

  Luo Qingzhou wrote five poems in a row, writing like a dragon, in one go.

  Nan Gongke held his breath watching from the side, his face was full of excitement, and he couldn't help reading it out.

  Nangong Meijiao stood aside, looking at that handsome and serious face, she couldn't help thinking to herself: No wonder Weimo is so devoted to him, everyone in the Qin family loves him so much, he really has the ability and qualifications...

  Luo Qingzhou put down his pen.

Nangong Ke couldn't wait to pick up the rice paper on the table, and while blowing on the ink, he read it several times over and over again, and suddenly smiled, smiling from ear to ear: "Qingzhou, good, well written, wonderfully written Ah! These five Buddhist verses are all rare and good poems, so I will not be polite."

   After finishing speaking, he blew on the ink a few more times, and then put it away directly, as if he was afraid that he would go back on his word.

  Luo Qingzhou cupped his hands and said, "My lord, can you give us some of the morning dew from the Xuantian Jade Girl Tree?"

   At this time, it is justifiable to ask for something.

Nangong Ke seemed to have just remembered this matter, a little confused: "Qingzhou, niece Xian, this king also wants to agree to this matter. It's just that the Xuantian Jade Girl Tree is planted by my daughter, except for her mother. No one can go except to see it. Even this king can only go to see it once a month, and every time he goes, he is disgusted, saying that this king is vulgar and will affect the growth of the Xuantian Jade Girl Tree. Look, you can't get close, hey..."

  Paused, he said again: "Well, Rui'er is playing football in the back, you go with me. If you convince her, there will be no problem."

  Luo Qingzhou and Nangong Meijiao looked at each other.

  Nangong Meijiao asked: "Uncle Shiba, besides playing football, does Rui'er like anything else?"

   Nangong Ke said with a smile: "Let's go, talk while walking. The things that girl likes are very weird, and ordinary people don't like them."

   The two followed behind, left the living room, and headed towards the field behind.
