4. Chapter 04

Feng Jingruo was stunned for a moment, and then silently looked away at the distant horizon......

Feng Jingze originally had this mention only on the spur of the moment, but now after seeing Feng Jingruo's silent refusal, his head cleared up again.

As a result, this mention yƬ just started and died.

The refusal was only because he was lazy, but after the refusal, Feng Jingruo was very unhappy.

Especially after Feng Jingze fell silent, Feng Jingruo was a little apprehensive in his heart.

The lifesaver won't be angry, right?

He secretly turned his head to glance at Feng Jingze, and saw him sitting on the side expressionlessly, with no joy or anger on his face. After feeling Feng Jingruo's gaze, he didn't move.

Feng Jingruo: "......" So are you really angry?

Feng Jingruo got up, carefully grabbed Feng Jingze's sleeve and shook it, and shouted softly: "Big brother......"

Feng Jingze's expression did not move at all.

Feng Jingze was naturally not angry, the mention just now was just raised by his head, and it would have no effect on him if Feng Jingze didn't want to learn.

It's just that he is used to not liking words, and after Feng Jingruo silently refused, he couldn't find a suitable topic for a while, so he also fell silent.

Now seeing Feng Jingruo calling him with a coquettish voice, Feng Jingze's heart softened and turned his head to look over.

Seeing that Feng Jingze was willing to look at him, Feng Jingruo became happy, he looked around, stood up and ran forward a few steps, stood under a peach blossom tree, stood on tiptoe and gently folded an extremely gorgeous peach blossom.

Holding the peach blossom branch, Feng Jingruo ran back with a happy face and stood in front of Feng Jingze.

Feng Jingze sat on the ground, Feng Jingruo stood, in such a posture, Feng Jingruo finally didn't have to look up at him, but bent down, held the peach blossom with white and tender fingers, and handed it to Feng Jingze.

Feng Jingze raised his eyelids lightly, Feng Jingruo was a little nervous, and said, "Big brother, give it to you." ā€

Feng Jingze raised his eyebrows slightly, looking at him with a smile.

The sun shone on Feng Jingze through the peach blossom forest, and he sat against the light, smiling like this, elegant and noble.

And Feng Jingruo, as an eight-year-old little group, was also fascinated by Feng Jingze's smile.

He stumbled and said, "I ...... I think you look better than this peach blossom, big brother, but I can't find anything better for you right now. Later, when I find something that is more compatible with you, big brother, I will definitely give it to you. ā€

Feng Jingze chuckled.

He doesn't smile often, but when he does, he is unusually handsome.

Feng Jingruo was stunned and said, "Big brother, you are so good-looking...... Exceptional......"

Feng Jingze stretched out his hand to take the peach blossom, and under Feng Jingruo's expectant eyes, he even took the tip of his nose and sniffed it.

Then he suddenly jumped up, and the white clothes floated over the clothes, and in a blink of an eye, bursts of peach blossoms fell.

Countless petals fell from the top of her head, and Feng Jingruo stared at this sudden flower fall with wide eyes.

Feng Jingze stood still in front of him, bent down to look at him, dressed in white, and the corners of his mouth were lightly raised.

He stretched out his hand and flicked Feng Jingruo's forehead and said, "Do you like it?" ā€

Feng Jingruo nodded stunned.

Feng Jingze: "You give me a peach blossom, and I give you a falling flower, how about it?" ā€

That night, Feng Jingruo's dreams were full of peach blossoms, and among the colorful petals, the corners of Feng Jingze's mouth smiled at him.

The next morning, the bell of the temple's morning class rang, and Feng Jingruo woke up from his sleep.

He hurriedly put on his clothes and ran to the place where he went to the morning class.

Running into the main hall, which was already neatly filled with little monks, Feng Jingruo slipped in from the back row gently and quickly, and then stood up.

The abbot walked out.

He swept around, his eyes fell on Feng Jingruo, Feng Jingruo puffed up his chest and showed a big smile at him.

The abbot looked away and began his morning lesson.

After the morning class, Feng Jingruo curiously asked the little monk Mingyi beside him, "Did you get a reward yesterday?" ā€

Mingyi shook his head and said unhappily, "No." Not only did I not, I asked several people, but they didn't either, and it seems that the concubine is not very satisfied with our service. ā€

Feng Jingruo saw Mingyi's pouting appearance, raised his hand and patted him on the shoulder, and said, "It doesn't matter if you don't get a reward, it's good to be able to take a look at the concubine and the second prince who can't be seen on weekdays." ā€

"It's strange to say that the second prince only stayed on the prayer platform for a while, and then he didn't show up all day." Mingyi said.

Feng Jingruo remembered his big brother who spent the whole day with him yesterday.

He asked, "Mingyi, do you know what the name of the second prince is?" ā€

"It is said to be called Feng Jingze."

Feng Jingze...... Gu Ze......

Feng Jingruo scratched his head, could it be that yesterday's big brother ...... Is it the second prince?

However, the second prince ...... He is the second prince of Feng Kingdom, his status is so noble, how can he stay with him in the Peach Blossom Forest for an afternoon?

"If you don't have it, come here." At this moment, the abbot's voice came, interrupting Feng Jingruo's thoughts.

"Mingyi, what are you still doing here? Ready to stand for the morning? Seeing that Mingyi was still standing beside Feng Jingruo, the abbot said sternly.

Ming Yi hurriedly ran away.

In an instant, only Feng Jingruo and the abbot were left in the hall.

"Abbot......" Feng Jingruo moved his steps and walked over and shouted.

The abbot glanced at him and said, "You come with me." ā€

Feng Jingruo sighed, obediently followed behind the host, and followed him to the precept hall of Tianhe Temple.

This is Feng Jingruo's first time entering the Discipline Hall.

When he saw the Discipline Hall, Feng Jingruo began to feel apprehensive in his heart, and quickly went through in his mind whether he had committed any crimes recently, but except for being almost late for morning class this morning, he didn't do anything wrong.

Could it be that the big snake that was cut in the backyard yesterday was not cleaned up in time and was discovered by the host?

Feng Jingruo stood at the door of the precept hall and glanced inside, it was empty, except for a few futons, there were almost no other furnishings.

"Abbot?" Feng Jingruo was full of questions and looked at the abbot.

"Come in." The abbot stepped over the threshold of the Hall of Discipline and entered.

Feng Jingruo really didn't want to go in, so he subconsciously grabbed the door frame with both hands and looked at the abbot with blinking eyes.

The abbot stood still, turned to look at him, his eyes calm, and held the Buddha beads.

Feng Jingruo said softly: "Abbot, I'...... I don't know what I'm doing wrong......"

"You didn't do anything wrong, come in, I have something to say to you." The abbot softened his voice and said.

Feng Jingruo bit her lower lip, walked over step by step, and looked at the abbot with a small face.

"Your master came to me last night and said that you have been impetuous, which is not conducive to cultivation. After we discussed it, we decided to let you stay in the precept hall and meditate for a while. The abbot said slowly.

Feng Jingruo's eyes widened and said, "Abbot, where is my master?" He came to me yesterday and said he was going to take me out. "I didn't mention it at all!

"Your master has temporarily taken over a mission to go out of the city, and he won't have time to come over for half a month." The abbot said, "When he returns, you will be able to come out of the Hall of Discipline." ā€

"But......" Feng Jingruo wanted to say that he was not impetuous, his state of mind was the same as before, comfortable and calm.

But seeing the abbot's eyes flickering and secretive, Feng Jingruo suddenly came to his senses and let him stay in the Discipline Hall, maybe it was just an excuse.

"If there is emptiness, everything in the world has a cause." The abbot stroked the Buddha beads with his fingers and said earnestly, "Some things may seem bad now, but as time goes by, you will find that these things that you think are bad are actually very beneficial inside." ā€

As he spoke, the abbot took out a book from his arms and handed it to Feng Jingruo, saying, "This is the book that your master asked me to hand over to you." He said that since you don't like to practice martial arts, I won't force you to practice martial arts from now on, as long as you can learn basic martial arts to protect yourself. ā€

This is a book without a cover, the cover seems to have been forcibly torn off, Feng Jingruo opened it and looked at it, the content inside was illustrated, he raised his head to look at the abbot, and wondered: "Abbot, what kind of book is this?" ā€

"You'll understand after reading it."

After the abbot left, the door of the precept hall was closed from the outside, and Feng Jingruo stood in place, looking at the empty hall.

The roof of the main hall is very high, there are no windows, and you can't see the scenery outside, and you can't hear the sound outside.

The sun doesn't shine in.

The only light in this hall is the three bright lights placed in front of it.

Feng Jingruo slowly walked to the door and raised his hand to pull the door.

To no avail.

The door to the main hall was locked from the outside by the presiding officer.

Feng Jingruo looked at this silent and huge hall, and his heart suddenly swelled with great grievances, he didn't know what he had done wrong, why did the master lock him up in this deep and dark place.

He had to go to see the Peach Blossom Forest with Feng Jingze in the afternoon, so he could only miss the appointment.

Feng Jingze took the sword and was about to go out when he met his mother Gu Mingliu coming over.

"Ze'er, where are you going?" Gu Mingliu walked over and asked.

"Get out for a walk."

"Going for a walk?" Gu Mingliu frowned lightly and said, "Where did you go yesterday afternoon?" Why haven't I seen you all afternoon? ā€

Feng Jingze stopped his steps as he walked out, put the saber on the table, and said lightly: "Mother, I will also have my personal time." ā€

"Your personal time? Ze'er, do you know what you're supposed to do right now? Gu Mingliu walked into the room, looked around for a week, and then sat down on the chair, retreated from the subordinate serving beside him, and said, "What you have to do now is not to buy personal time, but to win your father's favor." ā€

Feng Jingze: "My father will not abolish the current prince and make me the prince." ā€

"Accidents happen in everything." Gu Mingliu sneered, "The prince was only born half a month earlier than you, and his conduct, knowledge, and martial arts are as good as you." ā€

Feng Jingze also sat down, picked up the teacup and took a sip, Gu Mingliu saw his unhurried appearance, and he couldn't wait to get into his head and twist his thoughts.

"Mother." Feng Jingze put down the teacup and said slowly, "Prince, he is not only the eldest son of his father, he is also the eldest son of his father. And the queen has the entire Cong family behind her. ā€

Gu Mingliu Jiao's beautiful face showed a touch of hideousness: "Cong family? The emperor is just using the power of their family, speaking of the largest family in the Feng Kingdom, the Cong family is not qualified, and the Yun family is the real ...... back then."

Her voice came to an abrupt halt.

As if she had mentioned something terrible, a trace of panic flashed on Gu Mingliu's face, and in order to get the panic out of her heart, she even picked up the cup of tea that Feng Jingze had drunk just now.

"Mother." Feng Jingze lightly pressed her hand, took down the teacup, got up and poured her a cup of tea and pushed it in front of her, and said, "I drank the tea just now, and the concubine drank this new cup of tea." ā€

Gu Mingliu didn't drink tea, but stood up and said, "Ze'er, I'm a little dizzy, go back and rest first." ā€

"The child sent his mother back."

"No...... No need......" Gu Mingliu hurriedly walked out, and when she walked to the door, Feng Jingze's voice came from behind her: "Mother, the Yun family you just talked about, but Concubine Yun's maiden family?" ā€

Gu Mingliu's figure flickered, she raised her hand to hold the door frame, and said, "Ze'er, don't mention this matter again." ā€

Feng Jingze remembered the Concubine Yun he had seen when he happened to pass by the Cold Palace.

There are only four women in his father's palace, except for the queen, there are only three concubines left, namely Concubine Ming, Concubine Xuan and Concubine Yun.

And Concubine Yun has been in the cold palace for eight years.

The minister of Fengguo will play every year to let the emperor expand the harem, however, since Concubine Yun was beaten into the cold palace, the emperor has no new concubines, nor has he ever been a palace maid.

Since then, no new princess or princess has been born.

Since the little prince Feng Jingruo, who was born to Concubine Yun eight years ago, died overnight, this dynasty is like a curse, the king does not accept concubines, and the harem has no heirs.
