"Jian'er, tomorrow is the seventeenth day, it's too late." Song Ruoxi found a reason to give up Tuo's idea.

"Tomorrow, people from all cities will only choose to enter Beijing. After rest, the list will not be presented until the 19th, and the draft will not start on the 20th. Everything is still in time."

Song Ruoxi's eyebrows moved slightly, "How could you know so clearly?"

"Jingchen, when I left Jinglian Temple, you gave me the silver to me for emergency needs. I laughed at you. Now I know how naive I was at that time." A sneered sneer appeared on Kuo's lips, "Silver is very useful, just as they said, money can make the devil push the mill."

"If you want to leave the Hou Mansion, there is another way, and you don't need to enter the palace."

"Jingchen, I must enter the palace. My name is on the list. I ask you to find Master Jingyu, because I want the Empress Dowager to be the backer, to gain a foothold in the palace, and then to do it step by step, and to do it slowly."

Song Ruoxi's eyes turned dark. The person with a smart face in front of him was indeed not the simple and reckless Jian'er in Jinglian Temple. He gently pulled out his hand and asked, "If we didn't meet Yipinxian, what would you do?"

"If you have money, you can find out a lot of things. Even if I am locked up in the inner house by my wife, I know that you will go to Taohua Temple to worship Buddha every few days. Jingchen, if you want to break the world in the future and become a monk and a nun in the future, I will not advise you. If you don't have this intention, don't go too hard, so as not to affect your marriage. If you want to go, don't go for a fixed time, so as not to be plotted by those who are interested."

"Thank you for your reminder." The last time I met Zhu Qianyao, Song Ruoxi had noticed this problem, but he still expressed his gratitude to Kuang Chui for his kindness.

"Jingchen, can you help me?"

Song Ruoxi lowered his eyelids and avoided his burning eager gaze.

"Jingchen, if I can survive in the Hou Mansion, I can survive in the palace. Don't worry." Kuo Chui said confidently.

"The Hou Mansion is just a small pond, but the imperial palace is an unfathomable sea. In the Hou Mansion, you can get through the wind and water, but you may not be able to be in the imperial palace." Song Ruoxi poured her cold water.

"I know, so I asked Master Jingyu for help. I cherish my life very much. I don't want to die so soon." Tuo smiled.

"The rain and dew come from a little favor, and we strive to spread all over the thousand doors. Three thousand palace maids have rouge faces, and there are no tears in the spring. Jian'er, why do you have to go to this muddy water?" Song Ruoxi advised him hard.

"I'm already in muddy water, so I can just stir the water more muddy so that I can survive." Kuo Chui begs again, "Jingchen, help me."

Song Ruoxi looked at her with deep eyes, "What should you do if I insist on not helping you?"

"Jingchen, I know, you can't bear to push me into the fire pit, but Jingchen, I'm already in the fire pit, and I'm going to be burned to death and reborn in the fire. There are only these two ways to go." Kuo Feng curled the corner of his lips, "If you want to hear the news of my death, you don't have to help me."

Song Ruoxi looked at the small fan-shaped jade screen on the table, and said nothing for a long time, his eyes were entangled. After a while, "I will go to Taohua Temple, but whether she will help you is not something I can control."

"You are willing to tell me about the success or not, I thank you." A shame flashed in Kuang's eyes. After all, she used her only friend to force her to come forward to help in the name of death.

"How can I tell you whether things will be successful?" Song Ruoxi asked.

"You don't have to tell me specifically that everything will be clear when you enter the palace to be drafted on the 20th."

"If you choose, you will be as good as your wish. If you don't choose, what will you do?"

The first half of the sentence is annoyed, and the second half is full of concern. Kuo smiled and said, "Jingchen, I haven't heard you play the flute for a long time. Can you play a song for me today?"

Seeing that Kuo Feng avoided the question, Song Ruoxi's eyes flashed, and he didn't ask any more questions. He got up and went to the study to get the jade flute, and played the song "The Mantra of Eliminating Disasters and Auspiciousness", "Nanmo Sanmanduo, Mother Tuan, Aboladi, He Duoshe..."

Hearing the familiar Sanskrit sound, tears were hidden in Kuo's eyes, and he murmured to himself: "Modify the mandala according to law. He sincerely obeys and recites it. All disasters are eliminated and cannot be harmed."

The next day, Song Ruoxi went to Taohua Temple to find Jingyu, "Senior Brother, if possible, please help her."

Jingyu clasped his hands together and chanted the Buddha's chant, "Since she asked you to come, I will take this trip."

"Senior brother, I'm sorry, I'm making things difficult for you." Song Ruoxi lowered his eyelids and his eyelashes trembled slightly.

"It's not Ponini who is in a dilemma, it's you." Jingyu smiled, "You don't want to come, but you have to come."

Song Ruoxi smiled bitterly, "I know she uses me, but I still can't refuse her cruelly."

"It is better to be at peace and follow the circumstances. You are poor and have little thoughts to be pure and blessed. You are famous and have a long grievance. You can have a full meal. You can have thousands of years of brocade clothes. The world's greatest is life and death. You can be as good as life and death. You can be as good as gold." Jingyu clasped his hands together, "If all sentient beings can suddenly realize, how can you not go to hell? Junior brother, don't suffer yourself because of the ignorance of sentient beings. Gains, losses, prosperity and drought are all destined, and poverty, longevity and death are always the heaven."

Song Ruoxi's eyes turned from dark to bright, his hands closed and said, "Thank you, senior brother, for your advice."

Jingyu picked up the wooden hammer, rang the wooden fish, and chanted: "Avalokitesvara Bodhisattva practiced the deep Prajna Paramita. He saw that the five aggregates were empty, and he could overcome all sufferings and disasters..."

"The relics are the empty appearance of all dharmas, neither born nor destroyed, neither dirty nor clean, neither increasing nor decreasing..." Song Ruoxi thought of the Heart Sutra after his thoughts. In the curling blue smoke, the beautiful face seemed more holy and peaceful.

Song Ruoxi copied the "Divine Mantra of Eliminating Disasters and Auspiciousness" in the temple and offered it to Guanyin, praying for the boundless Dharma, and disasters will be eliminated, and good luck will come!

Shen Shizheng, Song Ruoxi left Taohua Temple and returned to the city. When he walked halfway, the carriage stopped. The silkworm frowned and asked, "Xiao Muzi, what's wrong?"

"Girl, there is a carriage in front of the road blocking the middle of the road, and it seems to be broken." Xiaomuzi said.

"Can you get there?" Song Ruoxi asked.

Xiao Muzi said: "You can pass by after passing by, but this section of the road is relatively narrow, and there are fields on both sides. The young man is afraid that the wheels will slid in and will cause danger. For safety, the girl has to get off the car and walk for a while."

"I don't want to fall into the field, get off the car!" Song Ruoxiu smiled, Xiangxiu put a hat on her, the master and servant got off the carriage, and the two guards turned over and got off the horse, and led the horse behind the four.

Song Ruoxi walked a few steps and a young man walked towards him, bowing and saying, "Miss is polite."

"Who are you? Why do you want to stop my girl from going?" Two guards went up to protect Song Ruoxi, one from left to right, and asked in a deep voice.

The man said: "In Zuo Dongnian, Huaining County, I escorted the girl to Beijing as an alternative. Who would have thought that the wheels would suddenly break down when they arrived here. The two girls were very delicate and had no power to travel a long distance. There was a ruthless request from me, and I hope the girl would agree."

Song Ruoxi looked up and saw that there were indeed a few people standing by the roadside, "You want me to take them all the way."

"That's right, please help me, girl." Zuo Dongnian said sincerely.

Huaining County selected five girls and took three carriages to Beijing to choose from. It was still two miles away from the capital. The wheels of a carriage were broken. The three girls and three maids had already squeezed the two carriages, and the two girls and two maids could not squeeze up and could only stay here. The two girls were noble girls who entered the palace. Zuo Dongnian dared not slacken, and he did not dare to let them get on someone else's carriage casually. After finally seeing the girl Song Ruoxi, he took the liberty to come forward and ask.

Song Ruoxi hesitated for a moment and said, "I can take them all the way."

"Thank you, Miss." Zuo Dongnian bowed.

"Aren't you afraid that I'll abduct them?" There are more than two miles away from the city. These two girls are beautiful girls again. If something goes wrong, Song Ruoxi can't afford to take the initiative to invite Zuo Dongnian to get on the bus. This is why she uses this sentence to remind Zuo Dongnian.

Zuo Dongnian was stunned for a moment and smiled, "Please allow me to sit with the coachman after I get off."

"Then I'm sorry, sir." Song Ruoxi smiled.

"Girl, you can get on the car." Xiao Muzi had already driven the carriage and shouted back.

Zuo Dongnian hurriedly arranged for the two girls and maids to get on the car, and he sat with Xiao Muzi, leaving two yamen runners to deal with the broken carriage.

The carriage seemed very crowded because there were four more people. The two girls took off the hats, with a hint of tiredness between their eyebrows, but it did not harm their appearance.

Xiangxiu was about to help Song Ruoxi get the hat, but Cannibal reached out to stop it, "No need to take it, you will get out of the car later. It's too troublesome to get it, don't take too much trouble."

The two girls were stunned for a moment, their bright eyes flowed, and a faint smile appeared on their lips. The girl must have looked very poor. Her mother-in-law was afraid that she would be ashamed of herself, so she would not let her take the cover.

"Thank you, Miss." The two mistakenly believed that Song Ruoxi was ugly, and they felt that they would enter the palace in the future and fly up the branches to turn into phoenixes, and would not have any interaction with her, so they were unwilling to talk to her too much and sat reservedly.

Song Ruoxi didn't care much about the attitudes of the two.

After the carriage entered the city, Zuo Dongnian saw the person who turned the carriage to pick them up and smiled and said, "Brother, please stop the car."

Xiao Muzi pulled the reins and stopped the horse.

"Miss Wang, Miss Liu, I'm here to pick up our carriage. Please get out of the carriage." Zuo Dongnian jumped out of the carriage and said loudly.

The maid of the two girls put a hat on the two and helped them get off the carriage. Zuo Dongnian thanked Song Ruoxi again, "Thank you for your thanks to the girl today, thank you girl."

"Sir, don't be polite." Song Ruoxi did not get out of the car, and did not even lift the curtains. He sat in the carriage and said lightly.

"Girl, please go first." Zuo Dongnian has the eyesight than the two girls. He can take two maids, an old lady and two guards out, and his family background must be extraordinary.

"Xiao Muzi, let's go!" The silk lady didn't say politely to him and said loudly.

"Hell!" Xiao Muzi shook the reins, and snow hooves pulled the carriage and slowly moved forward.

"I'll hurry up the carriage. You go check which girl she is from, so I can thank you in the future." Zuo Dongnian got on the carriage and whispered to the coachman.

The coachman jumped out of the carriage and followed him from both distance and near.

"Girl, someone follows us." The silkworm noticed it.

"Let the people outside take care of this matter." Song Ruoxi narrowed his eyes slightly and leaned against the cushion.

The silkworm lifted the curtains and said, "Someone followed behind."

"I know, little." The guard slowed down his horse's speed, but failed to catch the agile coachman. The coachman hid in the alley and gave a few small money to the three little beggars, so that they could follow him from afar.

The little beggar watched the carriage driving into the gate of the Song family and came back to tell him. The coachman went back and told Zuo Dongnian. When he learned that it was a girl from a famous family, Zuo Dongnian nodded slightly, saying that this should be the case for the ladies from a wealthy family.

The night was quieter, and Song Ruoxi, who had been lying on the bed for a long time, did not fall asleep. When he heard the mint breathing sound of the vigilant mint, he quietly stood up, walked out of the room, looked up at the quiet night sky, and asked softly: "Is anyone here?"

"The charm is." The sound seems to be far and near, faintly.

"I want to meet Mo Xun, can you help me find him?" Song Ruoxi asked.

Mei didn't speak immediately, waited for a moment, and asked, "When will the girl want to see the young master?"

"Tomorrow or the day after tomorrow, it will be decided by him."

"Please go back to your room and sleep."

"Thank you." Song Ruoxi thanked him and went to bed.

When she got up early in the morning, Song Ruoxi saw a flower note on the dressing table with a sentence written on it, "The weather is good today, and I'll be served with wine."

Song Ruoxi used the excuse to go to the Meatlou to eat fried turtle doves and wanted to go out.

Ji Yun couldn't resist her and had to let her go.

It was still in that wing room that Song Ruoxi saw Shangguan Moxun wearing purple clothes, jade belts, and ivory folding fan.

"What's the matter with me?" Shangguan Mo asked.

"There is a girl from Chengjin Hou Mansion who can participate in the talent show. Can you help me pay attention to her?" Song Ruoxi asked.

"Why?" Shangguan Moxun turned the folding fan in his hand.
