Chapter 16
The heavy bell rings, and the incense mist in the Guiyuan Temple is shrouded, and it is peaceful. In the spring, the sarotree pulls out new branches, the green new leaves add vitality to the vicissitudes of life, and the red line sways in the breeze, as if waving to me, as if it is the first time to see me.
"The night and the moon are bright, and this night is embarrassing. Pei Shaoyi picked up a flower note and said hatefully, "Which one of these uneducated dares to say the same thing as Lao Tzu?"
It's like being suddenly pulled back to the reality of red dust from the realm of selfless meditation, and the vulgar words of Thirteen made me full of black lines: "The beautiful scenery was ruined by you like this, and I shouldn't have brought you to disturb the purity of Buddhism." β
Thirteen sneered, and said with a dead face: "Which is Lianxi's flower note?"
I searched for a long time from memory, but I never found it. Under the sora tree, I jumped up and down with the thirteen and two people, and the obscene appearance scared away a group of good men and women who prayed to hang the red line.
ββ¦β¦ These two people don't talk about public morality, and the Bodhisattvas are scared away!"
"Do they have any special fetishes? It's scary, let's get out of ......."
"Let's go, let's go......"
I stabbed my elbow thirteen times: "Hey, I think we are too eye-catching, I'm afraid that someone will come to the temple to pick us up if we go on like this, or forget it!"
"No!" Thirteen was resolute, "I must find Lianxi's flower note!"
I rolled my eyes, and was thinking about whether to give him a nonsense, when a pale piece of paper suddenly came to me, and two slender fingers just covered the handwriting on the paper.
"Is this what the girl is looking for?" a deep voice sounded, the words were a little stiff, and the hoarse voice and accent did not resemble those of the Central Plains.
I took the letter suspiciously and took the note, and I recognized Lianxi's handwriting at a glance. Pei Shisan grabbed a look, looked up at the strange man, and his expression was also hesitant: "Who are you?
The man smiled and opened the red sandalwood folding fan in his hand: "The thirteen young people in the Xiaoyao Hou Mansion, He Yue has long admired his name." β
"Your name is He Yue?" Thirteen asked, "I don't see that you are not from the Central Plains, and you have a Han name." β
"I followed my father to do business outside Cyprus, but my mother was Han. β
I looked up and down at this man named He Yue, his eyebrows were raised, which made me feel a little inexplicably familiar. He Yue was dressed in a luxurious outfit, with gold and silver threads embroidered with complex patterns on his robe, and five-colored jewels and agate inlaid at the corners of his neckline.
"Your fur, I'm afraid I'm going to lose to others. I stabbed thirteen or two more times, teasingly. Thirteen pursed his mouth, handed the flower note to me again, and changed the topic: "What do you think Lianxi's wish means?"
ββLike the bright moon, a thousand times apart. A tree promises to be sad for ten years.
It's obviously the mind of the Lianxi girl, but at this moment, it poked at the softness of my heart for no reason. What Lianxi meant by this was that the person she longed for was farther away from her than Mingyue, and even if she wrote her wish on a tree, it might take a long time to come true. β
Thirteen groaned: "She is so insistent, should I also write one to express my firmness?"
I didn't think about it and blurted out: "Lianxi is by your side, you don't chase it, what's the use of just thinking about relying on immortals?" As soon as I finished speaking, I was frightened by myself. Because of this sentence, I miss it especially at this moment.
I went back and forth with Thirteen Eleven a few times, and suddenly found that He Yue was left aside. Although it was just a meeting in Pingshui, I also felt rude, so I thought about apologizing and saying goodbye to him. When I was about to raise my head, I bumped into He Yue's inquiring gaze impartially, and my heart jumped suddenly, and I hurriedly dodged.
His eyes sent me some kind of danger signal, and I pulled Thirteen and waved to him with a smile: "We have an appointment tonight, so we won't stay longer." Childe, farewell, farewell. β
After walking away, Thirteen asked me, "Didn't you say that you wanted to take me to the baptism of the Buddha, why did you run away again?"
I glanced back, and there was a tall and straight figure standing under the sora tree. I remember passing by him before leaving, and he whispered in my ear, "Princess Zhaoyuan, we will see you again." β
Sure enough, this sentence came true.
It was the night of the Son of Heaven who received the wind and washed the dust for the Turkic envoys, and accepted the Fengying Terrace with the gift of the nine-guest state banquet. Xiao Chongyan said that he was sick, and during the banquet, I actually saw Lianwu attend on his behalf, and the deceased was overjoyed.
"I heard that as soon as the Turkic prince arrived in Chang'an today, he didn't even see the emperor, so he went to Guiyuan Temple with his sister. Sister, how did you meet the Turkic prince?"
A sweet voice sounded during the banquet, it was Miss Xiao's family. Sitting next to her sat Lan Shao, who she hadn't seen for many days, except that her face was a little rounder, nothing else had changed.
"Today I just happened to leave the palace, and I met a group of strangers. He himself wanted to go to the Zen temple and ordered me to lead the way, so that people could not look at their identity. Lan Shao's words were full of contempt, and he suddenly lowered his voice, approached Miss Xiao and said, "Fortunately, I took Hudong's name, if the peace and relatives fall on my head, wouldn't it be wronged?"
I silently recited Amitabha Buddha several times in my heart, and it was indeed not a gentleman's work to listen to the corner of the wall, but the gap in the corner was too big, obviously to me, and I couldn't help myself if I didn't listen. Of course, Thirteen also heard their conversation, and said angrily: "In vain, I used to think that she was dignified and quiet, and she was simply blind to my dog's eyes!"
I was stunned for a moment, and I always felt that something was not quite right with this statement, but seeing that Thirteen was still resentful, I still swallowed the latter words into my stomach.
The emperor has not been very good since he came out on tour, and although he had a state banquet for the Turkic envoys tonight, he thought that he would also give an explanation to the old ministers who opposed him, so he did not attend. The night banquet in the palace was held by King Yan and the four princes.
The peacock emerald screen and the treasure top canopy surrounded Shen Zhan and Jing Hong, and the two of them walked side by side with the Turkic prince. Shen Zhan is peerless, Jing Hong is handsome and handsome, and the Turkic prince is not inferior when he walks in it. The three of them attracted a lot of attention along the way, and sat on the main seat in the hall. Lan Shao opened his mouth again at this time: "This Turkic prince named Helan Yue was born handsome. I heard that his mother was the eldest princess of Chengyang, but I don't know why this princess who was close to save Li Min didn't descend the throne to him, but gave it to a stinky little doll. β
"The eldest princess is the daughter of Da Zhou after all, so naturally she will not raise tigers. I don't know who will be the flower of this great good thing this time?" Miss Xiao said in a weird manner on the side, Xu is the Xiao family has been in the limelight recently, and her arrogance has become more and more arrogant.
Lan Shao glanced at me with slanted eyes, and the corners of his mouth hooked up a smile: "I heard that this time my father and the Turkic prince unanimously agreed to ornate the order of heaven, if any daughter of the clan is chosen by God, she will not be able to shirk it." β
I looked at the thirteen faces and expressed puzzlement. As soon as he turned his head, he saw a ceremonial official holding a jade plate covered with red silk with both hands and pacing to the bottom of the jade steps in the hall.
"Acacia Jun is known to be long, and the exquisite dice are long. The most infatuated Chang'an guest, you should know the meaning of this thing. Lianwu picked up the bamboo slip and read it slowly, and took out a white jade dice from the jade plate, "The emperor dictated, today's ordination, I will use this Bodhi dice in my hand to determine the choice of relatives in the clan, once selected, there will be no repentance." β
