Chapter 50: Crossing from the South to the North (1)
She snatched the door out of the annex, as if she had fled in the wilderness. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 When Li Yuan found her, she was sitting on the bluestone steps in the mountains with her knees crossed, her whole body trembling uncontrollably, and her eyes were full of panic and anger.
"Master?" Seeing her like this, Li Yuan's tone was cautious and a little trembling, "What's going on?" I, I'll take you home. ”
"Ah Yuan." Su Lan looked up at him, her eyes were sluggish, and there was an uncontrollable choking and trembling in her voice, "No, send me to Qingyuan's meditation room." ”
Qingyuan was watering the flowers and trees in the courtyard, and when he saw Su Lan being held by Li Yuan's arm, he was angry and walked slowly, and he was also shocked.
Qingyuan let her into the inner room, sighed, and went out again to tell Li Yuan to rest assured for the time being, leaving her here, before returning to the room, Su Lan was still trembling, and her eyes were blood-red.
Qingyuan sat at the tea table, made her a cup of tea, handed it to his hand, and didn't talk to her, just sat on the futon on the other side, and slowly recited the scriptures.
Half an hour later, Qing Yuan saw that Su Lan's expression was already clear, and then he said: "Hou Ye's mind is in turmoil, I don't know what kind of inexplicable thing it is, touching your heart obsession." ”
"People in the red dust, worried and confused, nothing more than that." Su Lan smiled gently, full of anger, and was a young man, "If I can really not be confused and worried, I will be the same as you." ”
"Those who practice cannot be free from confusion." Qingyuan shook his head, "It's just that Hou Ye is very obsessed in his heart, so he is burdened by it." ”
"Look outside this meditation room, the wind blows the leaves." Su Lan smiled gently, calmly and calmly, as if they were two people, "The wind moves or the leaves move?" It's just heartbeat. ”
Qingyuan looked at her, and he could also know a thing or two about the gaffe. He knew that her mind was firm and almost paranoid, and he had also persuaded her with Zen machines, but it was also fruitless.
"Master Hou has drunk the tea and is ready to go down the mountain." Qingyuan also smiled slightly and asked.
"The abbot is going to chase away the guests." Su Lan shook her head, "This Zen room flower tree, how pure, I can hide here for half a day?" The voices of people outside the mountain were boiling, and I couldn't feel at ease. ”
"Master Hou is a talented person with longitude and latitude, and he is very intelligent." Qingyuan smiled and added tea to her, "I naturally know that this peace of mind has nothing to do with the mountains and mountains." ”
"The people in Beijing messed up my mind, but when I returned from the south to the north, I disappeared in a blink of an eye." Su Lan drank tea, and her tone was low, "My heart can be at peace for a while." ”
She stood up and smiled at him: "I have been involved in a lot of lives through the palace change, and I will lend me your small Buddha hall." ”
"Useful?"
Su Lan clasped her hands together and recited the Buddha's name, "It's useless, asking for self-deception, it's originally a matter of life and death, not saying right or wrong." I reckon I'm going to kill people again tomorrow. ”
In the dim light, Qingyuan exited the small Buddha hall and saw Su Lan prostrate in front of the Buddha shrine amid the sandalwood incense, with a pious posture.
The Nine Heavenly Gods and Buddhas, the Bodhisattvas of the Ten Directions, are also invisible, cannot be forgiven, her hidden sins, her secret hearts.
Her heart was empty, and she actually hoped that at this time, someone would pull out her sword and make her go calmly, and her bones would be cold in an instant.
When she got up again, she was the peerless Su Lan again, with a beautiful appearance, her hands stained with blood, high above, no sorrow, no joy and no fear.
――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――
When Qi Lang, who was covered in blood, was transported back to the North Palace by the secret guards, Wang Su was really startled. It was confirmed several times that no one from the Chu State had seen Qi Lang's whereabouts this morning, so he stabilized his mind and treated his wounds.
Qi Lang's face was pale, and there was no blood on his lips, but he didn't say a word when Wang Su moved his hand. Wang Su finished sprinkling the gold sore medicine and bandaged Qi Lang's wound before he sighed and sat aside.
"Your Majesty, this wound is not a little half a month, I'm afraid it won't heal. The road is bumpy, but I am afraid that it will be more unfavorable for healing. The next scar is ironclad. ”
"It's okay to leave a scar." Qi Lang said with a smile, "They all said that they stabbed a knife in the heart, but this time I know what it feels like." ”
"Concubine Xian, how is Your Majesty preparing?"
"Even if you have the heart, you can't do it now." Qi Lang couldn't see the irony in Wang Su's smile, "What's more, there is no intention and no power." ”
"These days, I'm tired of the prime minister personally changing my dressing." Qi Lang propped himself up, touched the wound, and took two breaths of cold air with a "hiss", "Ah Yan is really ruthless." ”
"She stabbed me with her left hand." Qi Lang and Wang Su sat opposite each other, with a pillow stuffed behind their backs, "Although the sleeve robe is wide, I can still see that the scar on the back of her hand is an inch long." ”
"That should be Xie Zhiyi's injury." Wang Su looked at Qi Lang's left hand on the side, the fingers were slender, and there was a cocoon on the tiger's mouth, but there was no scar.
"In the first month of the year before last, Chu Zhouyun fought a fierce battle under the city for half a month, and the generals on both sides finally went into battle in person and were all wounded." Wang Su sighed and looked at Qi Lang, "When she was nine years old, Mrs. Liu escorted her to study the girl. was pricked by a needle, and she ran to Cheng Hou's study and cried for an hour, and she never learned female red again. ”
Qi Lang lowered his eyes and said in a low voice: "I really want to tell the world and tell everyone that this Su Lan, she, is, is Su Yan." Then she will fall, and I will be able to welcome her back to me. I will be able to guard and protect my little girl, and I will not let anyone add a scar to her. ”
"Su Lan, who fell into dust, will only be crushed by others." Wang Su sneered, "Your Majesty, if you really have a thought, then you are crazy, and you want her life." ”
Qi Lang also laughed out loud: "I'm probably crazy. ”
Wang Su smiled slightly: "The world is undecided, you won't be dizzy for the love of your children." ”
It was raining outside the hall at this time, and the smell of earth wafted in, blending with the faint bloody atmosphere under the cover of Su Hexiang.
Wang Su got up and walked to the bay window, looked at Yu Linwei, who didn't know when he was on guard again, his thoughts drifted away, and said, "Your Majesty, this is the marriage of the Seventh Master?" ”
"Emperor Chu has no sisters, and the eldest princesses are not very close to him, and it is not beneficial to marry the seventh child." Qi Lang sat on the couch, fiddling with the spicy Su Hexiang in the incense burner, and when it came to political affairs, the bitterness on his face disappeared, "It's the little sister of the queen Wang clan who is the most suitable." The noble daughter of the family is not wronged. ”
"I'm just afraid that my temperament is not compatible with the Seventh Master." Wang Su frowned, "The goddaughter of the family, the eldest daughter is different from the younger daughter. This Wang Jing is a little girl, almost twenty years younger than her brother Wang Yu, and she is pampered. Although she also knows the specifications and means, where can she compare to her sister, who is a rare hero in the fat powder pile. Ah Yan also said that she has a good appearance, and she has been smart since she was a child, she is very arrogant, and she is even more arrogant. is difficult to get along with the free and easy nature of the seventh master. ”
"Lao Qi is just marrying a Chu girl, compared to choosing one randomly regardless of height, shortness, fat or thinness, it can now be regarded as a god-sent fate." Qi Lang snorted coldly, "Do you really think you can let him pick and choose?" ”
"But in this matter, Your Majesty doesn't even ask what the Seventh Master means?"
"I can't do everything as I want, let alone him?" Qi Lang shook his head, "Since you are supported by the people of Qi Country, you must repay something." When I left Beijing, I told him that I would bring him a Chu girl back, which was not considered to be asking him what he meant. ”
Wang Su looked at the fine rain, and couldn't speak, only feeling an incomprehensible sadness in his heart, which was really melancholy in the world.
Qi Lang, who was leaning on the couch, slowly closed his eyes. He remembered that before he was made the crown prince at the age of eighteen, his father asked Cheng Hou Suyin, who had just returned from conquering the country, her father, who could be a king.
Su Yin said: "The five princes' minds are pure and strong. As a monarch, your mind is pure and persistent. Only those who are persistent can afford it, and the throne of the Qi country can be able to withstand this long-cherished wish to dominate the world. ”
When Su Yin said this, he didn't have six months and three days left to live.
The rain had been raining all day, and Qi Lang sat on the couch, watching the sun struggle to emerge from the clouds several times, but it was only a few faint rays of light sprinkled in front of his eyes, just like him, sour.
In this world, there is a precious thing, which he used to exchange for the supreme and supreme position in this world, but he also lost such a thing.
But he doesn't believe in fate, what if he struggles a few times, even if the daylight is faint, one day, the sky will still shine through.
As long as his name is written on every inch of soil she stands and every step she takes, he will be able to regain it.
