Volume 3 The Storm Rises Chapter 215 The Land of Witness
There was a peck as soon as he drank it, and Li Linqian also faintly felt in his heart that from today onwards, his career was already bleak, even if the two factions fought because of himself, there was no stage for him to perform.
However, Li Linqian did not have the slightest remorse, and put him to death and survive, but it is not just that he survived, but he was reborn, and he did everything that he should do as the leader of the Queen Mother's party, even if the Queen Mother's party loses in the future party struggle, the responsibility should not be taken by him alone.
After putting everything aside, Li Linqian suddenly realized that there are still too many things waiting to be completed in this world, and he has wasted too much time, and in the future, he should live for himself, and he doesn't have to think too much about the pros and cons.
The summer sun still tirelessly bakes the earth, and it will not have the slightest fluctuation in itself because of the joys, sorrows, and sorrows of the world.
After Liu An left the Qiming Palace, he felt hot and uneasy, so on the way back to the Tianling Palace, the meticulous dragon robe on his body had been pulled into chaos by him, as if he did not have the slightest imperial spirit.
Xiao Yuanzi has been bowing down to lead the way, but all of Liu An's actions still fell in his eyes, but he who has always taken care of Liu An meticulously did not say anything at this time, because he knew that Liu An needed to vent at this time, otherwise the depression accumulated in his heart would make Liu An crazy.
There was silence all the way, and it didn't take long for Liu An's royal car to return to the Tianling Palace, Liu An kept grabbing the dragon robe on his body alone, walked towards the inner hall, got rid of the eunuchs who followed him, and sent away the palace maids in the palace, Liu An closed the door hard, and locked himself in the inner hall of the Tianling Palace.
Xiao Yuanzi glanced at the accompanying eunuchs and palace maids in the hall, and after they all left, he walked lightly to the door of the inner hall, bowing to one side, although he knew that Liu An was on top of his anger and could not tolerate the disturbance of others, but Xiao Yuanzi, who had followed Liu An for most of his life, knew Liu An's temperament and did not dare to leave his duties without permission, because it would not be long before Liu An would summon him in.
Sure enough, about a stick of incense passed, Liu An, who had smothered himself in the inner hall, made a lazy voice.
"Someone, Xiao Yuanzi. ”
Xiao Yuanzi moved his back a little stiff, and then responded enthusiastically: "Your Majesty, the slave is here." ”
Pushing open the door of the inner hall, Xiao Yuanzi bowed in, in the bright inner hall, Liu An stood next to the windowsill with his hands on his back, the dragon robe on his body had long disappeared, replaced by a cyan regular robe.
At this time, Liu An lost the majesty that belonged to the Son of Heaven, and more of the taste of the market on ordinary people, even in the warm sunshine, Liu An's face still looked a little gloomy, obviously the depression in his heart has not been exhausted.
Looking at a few naughty finches in the sky, Liu An said lightly: "Get ready, follow me out of the palace." ”
"The slave received the order, the slave has already retreated, there is no one else in the Tianling Palace, and he can leave at any time, but I don't know who Huang Ye plans to bring with him when he goes out of the palace this time?"
Over the years, the number of times Liu An has been out of the palace can be said to be pitiful, but whenever Liu An is restless, he will always go to a place, and every time he comes back from that place, Liu An will sweep away the previous haze and regain his vitality.
Liu An shook his head, and still said lightly: "No one needs to bring it this time, you and I can go together." ”
Xiao Yuanzi was shocked when he heard this, although it was said that Liu An only took him with him when he left the palace, which was a great trust for him, but Xiao Yuanzi did not dare to accept this trust wantonly, the Son of Heaven traveled is not trivial, although it is a micro-service patrol, but Liu An's personal safety can not be joked, and it must be ensured that nothing goes wrong.
After Xiao Yuanzi thought about it, he made a suggestion to Liu An: "Huang Ye, I'm afraid this is not appropriate, right? It is Li Chao, the commander of the front door, who is on duty today, why don't you go and inform him and let him hide in the dark to escort him?"
However, Liu An shook his head and said with a mocking face: "No need, if my life is so worrying all around this imperial city, then I am the emperor who has done it in vain, even if he is assassinated, he deserves it." ”
Xiao Yuanzi hurriedly knelt on the ground, and said in a trembling voice: "The emperor is the only saint of heaven today, how can he talk about life and death lightly? ”
Liu An retracted his gaze looking at the sky, turned his head to look at Xiao Yuanzi and said, "Let's go, you also know that the person closed the door after noon, even if I, the Holy Son of Heaven, want to see it, the door is closed, this is unique." ”
Xiao Yuanzi hurriedly bowed down to receive the order, but his heart was a lot easier, it seemed that Liu An had recovered a lot, at least at this time, he had begun to laugh at himself, and he was no longer as gloomy and terrible as just now.
The one in Liu An's mouth is chanting and praying sincerely in front of a tall Buddha statue at this time, in front of the tall Buddha statue, he seems so humble and insignificant, like the dust everywhere in this world, which can't attract any attention.
He is a monk of Qinglian Temple, and his Dharma name is Wuxi.
No worries, no traces, this is not only the name of the law, but also his current state of mind, since escaping into the empty door, he has indeed done this, every day sunrise and sunset, chanting Buddha, self-cultivation, even if he is on the edge of the imperial city of Dacheng, but it seems to be outside the world, and there is no intersection with this mottled earthly world.
Boom~
The melodious bell rings, which is the bell of the Qinglian Temple that is about to open the door every day, and it is also the sound of the monks in the temple at the end of their morning class.
After reciting the last verse, Wuxian bent down and bowed deeply to the tall Buddha statue, that look, that gesture, all showed his dedication, he had been doing such actions for a full fifteen years.
In the past fifteen years, without a trace, he has been doing the same thing day after day, year after year, just to get rid of the self-blame in his heart, but even if he is already an elder of Qinglian Temple, the self-blame in his heart still refuses to dissipate, I am afraid that for the rest of his life, he will spend his life with the self-blame in his heart, until the end of his life, he will be relieved.
Boom~
The bell rang again, and under the impetus of the four warrior monks, the heavy wooden door of Qinglian Temple slowly converged to both sides, revealing the tall copper tripod in the square, and the top of the copper tripod was inserted with three pillars of thick red incense, and the smoke drifted in the air, adding a solemn atmosphere to the whole square.
With the opening of the gate, the pilgrims waiting outside the Qinglian Temple crossed the threshold one after another, and stepped into the Qinglian Temple with a pious heart, including the richly dressed man and the down-and-out man who was dressed in rags and looked like a beggar.
When all people pass by the copper tripod, they will light the red incense in their hands, and then insert it into the groove in front of the copper tripod, this pillar of incense is called the entrance incense, after lighting the incense, it represents the clear Qinglian Temple enshrined in the gods and Buddhas, and the wishes made can also be known by the gods and Buddhas, so as to give blessings.
Judging from the wide groove and the endless stream of people, the incense of Qinglian Temple is still quite prosperous, regardless of whether the blessings given by the gods and Buddhas are not effective, at least the people who come to Qinglian Temple to incense get the relief they want.
Soon after the first wave of people entered Qinglian Temple, Liu An, who was dressed in green shirts, and Xiao Yuanzi, who had been dressed in disguise, appeared outside the gate of Qinglian Temple.
Why did Xiao Yuanzi have to dress up in disguise? Because he lived in the palace all the year round, Xiao Yuanzi's breath that belonged to eunuchs was too heavy, and he looked very different from ordinary people, and he was afraid that his image would attract unnecessary attention, so he carefully cleaned it up.
Liu An strode into the gate of Qinglian Temple, he is very familiar with Qinglian Temple, not only because he has been frequented all these years, but also because this is the place where he witnessed the success of Dacheng, in that rainy night fifteen years ago, it was here that he really embarked on the road of the emperor and became the holy son of heaven who was admired by the world.
Standing below the copper tripod, Liu An did not exercise his privilege of the Son of Heaven, but lined up behind a ragged man very regularly, waiting to insert the three pillars of red incense in his hand in the groove.
And Xiao Yuanzi is like a hen protecting her chickens, with a pair of small eyes looking at Liu An's body very vigilantly, for fear that an uninvited guest will suddenly appear and cause harm to Liu An.
Compared with Xiao Yuanzi's caution, Liu An was unmoved, not to mention that Liu An was just wearing a green robe at this time, no one knew his true face, even if Liu An revealed his identity as an emperor, no one in this Qinglian Temple could hurt Liu An, because in the Qinglian Temple, there was a powerful but infamous monk, guarding the solemnity and tranquility of the Qinglian Temple all the time.
And the reason why Liu An knew that there was such a person in Qinglian Temple was not because he was the master of this Dacheng country and knew everything, but because in the previous conversation with Wuji, he heard Wuji inadvertently mention this matter, otherwise Liu An, as an emperor, would not know that there was such a tiger lying on the side of his couch.
Later, under the recommendation of no trace, Liu An also met with this master, who claimed to be from the holy land, and heard that there were countless thunderbolts in this Qingbo peak fifteen years ago, which was called the catastrophe by the world, so he has been living in the Qinglian Temple, sincerely worshipping the Buddha, not asking about the world, in order to expect to meet the scene of the day again.
Originally, Liu An was also defensive about having such a character by his side, but after years of communication, Liu An took off the guard in his heart, and he and the master can be regarded as old friends.
