The next morning, Zhou Dingcheng came to the inner house to find him and asked him to hurry to Hanshan Temple for a walk.

He saw Xiao Nier and besides being close to each other at this time, so close that he almost dropped his jaw, and he really didn't know how to coax Xiao Nier again. These days, he has also touched Xiao Nier's temperament, this Nizi has a stubborn force, who really wants to annoy anyone, I guess I don't understand.

As the saying goes, a key opens a lock. Besides, the way to make Xiao Nier happy is a little, if not a hundred, there are a thousand. As for Zuo Ling, besides, she has always been uncoaxing, she is completely happy with her happiness, and she is distressed by her distress.

Anything, as long as it is a habit, there is always a way to solve it.

However, besides, the surface is relaxed and the heart is also drumming, Pomegranate's attention must be sad, the difficulty cannot be overstated, let alone Pomegranate, even Chen Musa is not sure about that level, bringing back a Xiao Nier, it is useless for him to explain this matter.

Originally, he wanted to trap his father, return everything to his father, and let him come forward to solve it, but now that his father and sister are not here, he is like an orphan, how can he decide on a marriage, who will call the rules?

Originally, he was going to go to Chen's Mansion last night to meet the teacher and meet with Pomegranate, and the first thought when he woke up in the morning was this, and he almost couldn't wait, but when he thought of these difficulties, he suddenly felt that his head was like a fight.

Of course, going to Hanshan Temple is also a very important thing. One is that his father once warned him, and the other is that in Fengyang Mansion, Hanshan Deqing also specially explained to him, and as soon as he returned to Suzhou, he immediately went to Hanshan Temple to ask to see the abbot. He also knew that the Hanshan Temple was hiding their family's secrets.

After eating breakfast, the three of them got into a carriage and went to Hanshan Temple outside the city. Xiao Nier didn't want to go, but Zhou Dingcheng had to pull her.

At this time, in the wax moon, the smell of the New Year has become stronger, and there are children everywhere wearing cotton jackets and setting off small firecrackers, all of them are so cold that their faces are red, but they are extremely excited.

Both sides of the street are also full of stalls selling New Year's goods, and the people who buy New Year's goods in front of each stall are even more shoulder to shoulder, but in winter, there is no sweat to come out, and there is no scene of sweating like rain.

"It's time for us to buy New Year's goods, right?" Xiao Nier looked at the stalls and couldn't wait to go down and buy a car to go home. Buying New Year's goods is also a special pleasure and enjoyment.

"Uncle Ji and Aunt Liu, they will buy it." Besides, there is no joy of the New Year in my heart, but I am heavy, and I am about to pass an important stage in my life.

Originally, for the poor, the New Year is to pass the pass, so it is called the New Year's Pass, and when it comes to the pass, many things have to be settled at the end of the year, and those who owe money have to figure out how to escape at this time.

Besides, he didn't have the trouble of owing money, but his difficulties were deeper, heavier, and more sad, and he couldn't avoid it.

"Don't worry, the young grandmother won't want your life, at most she will punish you to kneel on the washboard for a few days. I told Liu's mother to sew a thick cotton pad on our washboard. Xiao Nier snickered as she comforted him.

Besides, she was amused by her, Zhou Dingcheng laughed out loud and praised: "Sister, you are so creative." ”

Xiao Nier said proudly: "That's, I don't feel sorry for him, who feels sorry for him." ”

An hour later, the carriage stopped, and the three of them climbed the stairs all the way to Hanshan Temple.

Hanshan Temple is famous for the Song Dynasty Zen monks to pick up, thus become a famous temple in the sea, literati and ink writers, official eunuchs and squires all pass by near Suzhou, all go here to pay homage and worship, so the incense is very prosperous. Although it is not as famous as Nanjing Daxiangguo Temple and Hangzhou Lingyin Temple, it also has its own characteristics.

Zhou Dingcheng led the two of them to the abbot's room, but saw a monk about fifty years old waiting for them under the eaves outside the house, and there were several young monks and small novices on the left and right.

"Zhou Dingcheng has seen God bless Daoyou." Zhou Dingcheng stepped forward to make a joke, he was courteous as a Wudang Taoist.

"Fellow Daoist is polite, this is the little benefactor." This monk is none other than Master Tianyou, the abbot of Hanshan Temple.

"Besides, the disciple has seen the master." Besides, he hurriedly stepped forward and bowed down to pay homage.

"And me, great monk, my name is Xiao Nier." Xiao Nier was not far behind, and stepped forward to introduce herself.

"Lord Xiao Shi is here, and our temple is fortunate." Tianyou said with a smile, clasping his hands together.

Moreover, the moment he saw the abbot of Tianyou, he felt that his eyes were like an abyss, and he fell into it in an instant, and his whole body was naked in front of this master, not only every cell of his body, but even the smallest thoughts in the deepest part of his heart could not escape, he couldn't help but sweat all over, just like a child who had not reviewed his homework and was facing a big exam.

The abbot of Tianyou didn't mean to do this, he just glanced at it, but anyone who was looked at by him would feel this way, not only that. For Zhou Dingcheng and Xiao Nier, the abbot of Tianyou did not use such sharp eyes, but lowered his eyes slightly and spoke softly.

Zhou Dingcheng and Tianyou exchanged a few words, and they were led to another guest house by the monk Zhike, and Xiao Nier was also invited. Only besides, he was invited into the abbot's room, and he was followed by a young novice of eight or nine years old.

"The old monk is also strange, if he wants to talk about any secret things, he won't let us listen to them, it's so rare." Xiao Nier pouted.

"Women are not allowed in the abbot's room, this is the rule." Zhou Dingcheng explained.

"What a rule, no wonder they can't find a wife." Xiao Nier snorted angrily.

Zhou Dingcheng laughed, the monk can't find a wife, what does it have to do with the rules of the abbot's room?

Xiao Nier is very unfamiliar with monks, her hometown has no Buddha, no Taoism and no Confucianism, and there is no concept of these three realms at all, but later I heard that monks do not marry wives, and I wondered, and now I finally found the reason.

In fact, at the beginning of the Ming Dynasty, it was not uncommon for monks and Taoists to marry wives and have children, and wine and meat were not taboo, which was completely similar to the laity. After the war at the end of the Yuan Dynasty, the rules of the jungle were abolished, and the monks and Taoists were also free.

Besides, he was led into the small abbot's room, which is really worthy of being called the abbot, and there is indeed only the place of the abbot. There are only two futons on the ground, a low one, one of the futons is gray in color, and the original color can no longer be seen, the low few and the other futon are new, it is estimated that they were specially prepared for him, usually this master only has one futon to meditate indoors, and there is not even a bed.

The two sat down across the dairle, and the little novice brought a pot of tea, and immediately withdrew, closing the door.

"Does the master have something important to tell his disciples?" Besides, I can't wait, I asked first.

"It's not that I have something to do, but before Ling Zun left, he left a letter and put it here for me, asking you to come mainly to hand over this letter." The abbot of Tianyou said lightly, and took out an unopened letter from his cuff.

Besides, he hurriedly changed his sitting position to a kneeling position, took the letter with both hands, and then his hands trembled, and it took half a day to open it. He didn't know why his father left him a letter, and he didn't know what was written on it, but it must be very important to store the letter here, instead of letting Liu's mother pass it on.

Besides, when I opened the envelope and unfolded the letterhead, the letter was indeed Guo Zhong's handwriting. The letter first told him that because of the emergency, he and Guo Yu had to move to another place immediately, and there was no need to worry about safety issues, and there was no need to be in suspense when they met in the future.

What is written below makes Besides's heart tighten. What Guo Zhong means is that he has already thought about it, let him go out for exercise, experience the world, and when he comes back, he will reveal the mystery of the family history of the Guo family to his son.

It turned out that the original surname of the Kuang family was Zhu, not the surname Kuang, and this surname was changed by a fortune teller master when he fled in the early years of Yongle, saying that no matter where their family went, they could avoid great disasters by living by the water. Therefore, it is recommended to change the surname to the situation next to the word water. As for why he fled, he didn't know very well, and the reason for passing it down from generation to generation was: the ancestor at that time was an imperial doctor who followed Emperor Jianwen away, and he was also a disciple of the great Confucian Fang Xiaoru.

Moreover, the name also came from this, his generation was Yunzi, and his father named him "Yunming" when he was born.

Wish, Yunming?

Besides, the buzzing of my brain almost exploded!

Could it be that I am one of the four great talents in the middle of the Ming Dynasty, and the same name as Tang Bohu, Wen Zhengming, and Zhou Wenbin? ! Besides, I never expected that I would get Zhu Yunming's identity by crossing over.

I'm Zhu Yunming, Zhu Yunming is me? He still felt a little incredulous.

He then looked down, in addition to the name, his father also gave him the word "Zhishan", because he was born with six fingers on his feet, so he took this word, according to physiognomy, those who have six fingers on their hands and feet are versatile people.

Zhu Zhishan, it won't be wrong, the name and word are right. He felt a wave of ecstasy.

It's just that next, but it made him feel a little regretful, his father repeatedly explained to him in the letter, this matter must not be known to outsiders, and he has to continue to use this name, unless one day the matter of the ancestor is rehabilitated, or he gets the emperor's amnesty, and no one pursues the case again, he can show his true identity openly.

Then there were some instructions, telling him to obey Master Tianyou's arrangement in everything, never make his own opinions, continue to study hard, strive for good fame in the examination, and strive to eliminate the case with his own strength in the future and glorify his ancestors.

Besides, his heart was agitated, he really knew that his son was as good as his father, he thought exactly this in his heart, to completely eliminate this case with his own strength, and his family would no longer have to flee in all directions in the future, and no longer have to live in fear, and now he added another one, and he should be able to find out his true life experience in front of the world and restore his real name.

Maybe he didn't write much about it, but that's enough. Moreover, the biggest mystery in my heart has been revealed, although it is not completely thorough, and there are still many details that have not been clarified.

For example, what was the official residence of the ancestors who were by Emperor Jianwen's side back then? What happened later? It is rumored that what is the relationship between the descendants of Emperor Jianwen and the Zhu family? And so on and so forth.

"The master also knows about the disciple's family background, right?" Moreover, after reading the letter, I respectfully asked Master Tianyou.

"Lao Wei knows something, but the things back then were too secretive, don't talk about Lao Gao, I'm afraid even Ling Zun doesn't know enough about it. As far as I know, the family tree of the Zun family has been burned that year. Master Tianyou said lightly.

"Burned, why?"

Besides, I have always wondered why I have never seen the family tree, and I thought that my father would not let me see it, but now I know that it was burned down as early as the early years of Yongle.

"It is said that there is a huge secret hidden in it, and even the descendants of the Zunfu cannot let it know, so it was burned. What the old man knows is still from some records of the temple's predecessors, and of course it is also top secret, and only the abbots of the past generations can see it," said Master Tianyou.

"Please ask the master to solve the doubts of the disciple."

According to records, during the Hongwu period, Ling Zushang and the prince Zhu Biao were friends of cloth, and the two families had close contacts, not the relationship between ordinary princes and courtiers, and the children of the two families were also like a family. It is said that when Emperor Jianwen was young, he often played and stayed in the Zun Mansion, and the children of the Zun Mansion were also in the East Palace as if they were in their own home. ”

Besides, listening to it, my heart became more and more frightened, it seems that the ancestor is not an ordinary person, he can be like a buddy with the prince, can he be ordinary? No wonder Zhu Di regarded it as a thorn in the flesh in his eye, and left an edict to chase and kill, and he never died.

Master Tianyou continued: "Originally, this time I wanted to transfer you away, but Senior Brother Tianci of Longxing Temple specially contacted me and asked me to arrange this matter, and Lao Wei was basically ready. But a few days ago, Murong Daoyou passed by here and said that you don't want to transfer anymore, you want to stay here to live, and you want to use your own strength to resolve this case in the future, but your courage is commendable. ”

"I have this heart, does the master think it is possible?" Besides, he asked.

"It's too difficult, let me tell you, Ling Zu's matter is not simply as simple as following Emperor Jianwen to run away, but there is another big secret, this secret was originally hidden in the family tree of the Zun Mansion, but unfortunately it has been burned. There are probably not many people in the world who know about this now, and Lao Wei doesn't know at all. I don't know it, I don't know, I don't dare to speculate. ”

Besides, he looked at the master with blank eyes, hoping to get more information from him.

Master Tianyou continued: "But the old man knows that in the past hundred years, I don't know how many people have played the book to the emperor, and even used all kinds of power to get the emperor to decree an amnesty to the Imperial Palace, but unfortunately they have not been able to do so. ”

"What could it be?"

"I just said, don't dare to speculate, you should know what I mean. The descendants of the family members of the courtiers who followed His Majesty Emperor Jianwen back then, died and fled, and the imperial court had long given up the pursuit, and even the so-called ancestor protectors had given up, but the only one who was persevering in the Zunfu was pursuing it to the end, probably because of this great secret. If you want to eliminate this case, you must first find out what this secret is, and according to the old man's estimation, only the royal family has a record of this great secret. ”

Besides, hearing this, his heart became more and more firm, it seems that he is on the right path to start from the royal secret file, and he hasn't had time to read the copy of the royal secret file brought back from Fengyang this time, and he doesn't know how Zhou Dingcheng got it.

"It shouldn't be up to you to decide what to do, but if there's danger, you have to move. However, Senior Brother Tianci of Longxing Temple has already passed the word that Fengyang suffered a catastrophe this time, but fortunately, the old man of Qianji took action and wiped out all traces. Lao Wei estimated that the Ancestor Protector Sect would not act rashly until they figured out the Fengyang incident, which would buy you a few years. ”

How many years? And some headaches. This means that if it is not completely resolved within a few years, the difficulties encountered in the future will be even greater. However, with his meager strength, can he completely resolve the case for the Guo family in a few years, no, for the Zhu family?

That's to deal with the imperial court, when it comes to such things, if you use the relationship between the Zhongshan Mansion or the Wucheng Marquis Mansion, everyone will be happy if you do it well, and if you don't do it well, it will affect others.

Master Tianyou finally said that after taking over as the abbot, he read some codex of the previous abbots, and he knew that every abbot of Hanshan Temple consciously took on the mission of protecting the bloodline of the Kuang family, and later he had several private meetings with Kuang Zhong and deepened his understanding of the case.

"In the future, if you feel that someone is following or watching, once you feel ominous, please come here at any time, at least take refuge first, and you can move at any time. However, never come when there is nothing to do. Master Tianyou advised.

"Thank you, Master." and bowed down on their knees.

Saying goodbye to Tianyou and leaving the abbot's room, Zhou Dingcheng and Xiao Nier were waiting for him outside, the three of them looked at each other, and no one spoke.

Out of the mountain gate, and looked back inside, but did not see a single monk, only the people who entered the incense one after another walked in and out.

When they came to a hillside, there was no figure nearby, and the pent-up passion in his heart finally burst out, he puffed up his chest, raised his hands high, and shouted loudly into the air: "I am Zhu Yunming!" I'm Zhuzhishan! ”
