Three days later, the emperor traveled to the Great Mercy and Grace Temple.

The Great Ci'en Temple is a temple dedicated to the royal family, and this trip was arranged early, because a month ago, the emperor was sitting in the palace, and suddenly a snake swam towards him from the water, and before he could get close to the emperor, he was killed by the chamberlain.

The snake is a fake dragon, and when it dies, it dies, but the emperor had a dream that night.

I dreamed that this snake cried to him, saying that he had achieved success in cultivation, and he originally wanted to ask the emperor for a seal, but he was killed before he could enter it, and asked the emperor to burn a little Sutra of Death for it anyway, so that he could get out of the animal path and be reincarnated as a humane.

The emperor didn't believe in this, but there were some knots in his heart that were difficult to untie, so he decided to make this trip to the Great Mercy and Grace Temple.

The emperor's trip is a big deal.

On this day, there was an early opening of the Royal Forest Army, and hundreds of officials surrounded them into the Great Ci'en Temple, and after burning incense, the emperor left Gu Changlan and prepared to eat fast in the Daci'en Temple and then go back.

Gu Changlan stood beside the gentle emperor, and he became more and more sharp, cold as frost, and the civil and military officials didn't dare to look at him, so they left one after another.

Mu Cai said with a smile: "Why does the emperor always look like this, so that the hundred officials are afraid when they see it, I heard people say last night that they gave you a nickname behind your back, called the Living Hades." ”

Gu Changlan's eyes didn't move, and said: "It's reasonable to take it, the younger brother is the living king of Hades, then they should go to the Hall of Eternal Life to worship, so as not to have a short life." ”

Mu Cai said: "You, this character, tell me what is good about you, go, let's go to the Palace of Eternal Life to have a look." ”

The Hall of Eternal Life was built on other hills, and there was a path through it, but in fact, it was no longer within the scope of the Great Mercy and Grace Temple.

Gu Changlan said: "Your Majesty, the Palace of Eternal Life was built by the people of the previous dynasty, and no one was sent to clean it, it was all the fault of the younger brother, and he said this sentence with many mouths." ”

Mu Cai said: "It's okay, there are many secret guards around me, and you are here, what are you afraid of, let's go, let's also go and take a look at the Palace of Eternal Life built by the people." ”

The emperor was interested, and he said that he would leave, and he didn't want to bring more people, so he only brought a personal eunuch to go, and Gu Changlan followed.

There is a Guanyin Niangniang enshrined in this hall of eternal life, many people will also come here to light the lantern, pray for the health of the family, today because the emperor is out on patrol, everywhere is avoided, today it seems particularly deserted, there is a monk in the temple who has a pending order, see no one today, and do not know where to hide.

Mu Cai looked at this too beautiful Hall of Eternal Life and said, "This is a bit shabby. ”

Gu Changlan said: "Ordinary people, burn incense for peace, and you don't need to spend any incense money, once it is built, the incense will be cold." ”

Mu Cai said: "It's still the emperor's brother who is reasonable." ”

Gu Changlan said: "It's not that the younger brother is reasonable, but the younger brother has been away for a long time, and he sees these small people in the market, no more than the emperor who cares about the world and worries about the dynasty." ”

Mu Cai said: "What you say is a run." ”

Gu Changlan hurriedly knelt down and said, "Brother Chen is wrong. ”

Mu Cai helped him up and said, "Admit your mistakes at every turn, we two brothers, what's wrong is good, if you didn't help me deal with these tricky things, where would I have been so relieved." ”

Gu Changlan said: "Yes." ”

Mu Cai said: "Go in and have a look." ”

Gu Changlan said: "Your Majesty, please wait for a while, and after the younger brother takes someone in to check, then invite the emperor into the palace." ”

Mu Cai said: "I am on a whim, could it be that there are assassins who can figure out what I am thinking on a whim? ”

As he spoke, he stepped over the threshold and stepped in.

The hall of eternal life is narrow, and the incense is very heavy, as soon as Mu Cai enters the hall, he sees a girl kneeling in front of the statue of Guanyin.

Gu Changlan hurriedly stepped forward to separate the people, but Mu Cai waved his hand.

A girl, even if she wants to hurt him, how big a wave can she make, at most she is a bait, don't startle the bait, but scare the angler away.

The girl was not as slender as it is now, but a little chubby, and she was quite white, kneeling on the ground and kowtowing.

"The Bodhisattva blesses his brother's illness, and if the elder brother is cured, the believer will come to kowtow to the Bodhisattva every day. ”

Mu Cai listened to her voice, his brows furrowed, and his face had changed slightly.

He stepped forward and said, "Look up and see." ”

The girl shuddered, looked up at Mu Cai dissatisfiedly, and said angrily: "Where did you come from! If you dare to be presumptuous in front of the Bodhisattva, aren't you afraid that the Bodhisattva will punish you!"

She crackled a lot, Mu Cai didn't listen to a word, just stunned, looked at her, and then muttered: "Like, too similar!"

The girl said, "What are you like, go away, don't stand in my way here to worship the Bodhisattva!"

Gu Changlan scolded: "Presumptuous!

Mu Cai stopped Gu Changlan, with a glimmer of light in his eyes, and said, "Don't you think she looks a lot like the person we are looking for?"

Gu Changlan said: "Brother Chen doesn't think it's like it, if the person the emperor is looking for, if he is really alive, he must be displaced and fleeing in all directions, otherwise how can he not find it, since he is living such a life, it is definitely not as white and mellow as he is now." ”

He was telling the truth.

The emperor was too suspicious, if Gu Changlan also said that it was like, he would have to suspect that this was a game that Gu Changlan did for him, but Gu Changlan said so categorically that it was not like it, and the emperor's suspicions were dispelled, but the more he looked at it, the more he felt like it.

The girl was furious by them, looked at the guards who followed behind her, and guessed that she had provoked someone, so she stubbornly stopped talking.

Mu Cai crouched down, clasped her chin, and looked at it carefully.

This elf's strange eyebrows and eyes are very similar to Gu Ningzhao when he was a child, if Gu Ningzhao grows up, he must be like this, with sharp teeth and sharp mouth, refusing to admit defeat.

He asked softly, "What's your name?"

The girl said, "I want you to take care of it, Deng's disciple!"

Mu Cai said: "Girl, if you don't tell me, I will send someone to investigate, and I can find your brother, do you tell me yourself, or I will investigate." ”

The girl frowned and said, "I, you are the emperor!"

Mu Cai felt that he was the emperor, and today was also particularly refreshing, and said with a smile: "Can you say it now?"

The girl said, "My name is Xiong Yu." ”

and Gu Ningzhao is a name that has nothing to do with Fengma Niu.

Mu Cai was a little disappointed in his heart, and said, "Then where is your home?"

The girl said: "Didn't the emperor say that if I told you the name, you won't check?"

Mu Cai said: "Hey, I am the emperor, whatever I ask, you can just answer." ”

As he spoke, he remembered another person who always answered the question, Gu Ningzhao, you asked her if she had eaten, no matter before or after the meal, she said she hadn't eaten, you asked her why she was so happy today, and she said that she was happy because she met her second brother.

In the past, he always felt angry, and secretly wondered if he was a pistachio existence, until he lost Gu Ningzhao, and found that he was the only one in the world who was simply happy to see him.

The girl said: "My family lives in Fu'an County, outside the capital, there are parents and brothers at home, there are no other relatives, the family conditions are not very good, I used to do a little business, and then I can't do it anymore, now I have bought a few acres of land, in farming, my brother has Feng Han, that's all, what else does the emperor want to ask." ”

She crackled and said a lot, and Mu Cai suddenly felt that this temper was more like.

He smiled and said, "I like you a lot, are you willing to go back to the palace with me?"

Xiong Yu thought for a while and said, "If I don't go back to the palace with the emperor, will the emperor let me go?"

Mu Cai said: "No, I will still find your house, lock up your father and mother, and then snatch you into the palace." ”

He said it was a joke, but it still made people feel that if Xiong Yu didn't agree, it wouldn't be a joke.
