79_79301The carriage stopped at the back door of a shop on North Street in the inner city, and Twilight Qing entered the courtyard with Bu Xihuan, and saw the word "Rong" written on the lantern hanging under the porch, so she remembered that a few days ago, Bu Xihuan gave her a hidden stake of the Piercing Moon Gate in Shengjing, among which there was an antique shop, and the owner's surname was Rong.

The little servant wore a hood and carried a lantern to lead the way, and half-bowed his head all the way without saying a word, and when he reached the outside of the storeroom, he opened the door and respectfully retreated.

In the corner of the storeroom, there was a lampstand, and among them kneeling was a young man, in a green shirt and a hat, half-covering his face, as if he had been waiting for a long time.

"Lord."

"Hmm." Bu Xihuan responded, his eyes were as cold as water, and he asked casually, "Ready?" ”

"Back to the Lord, it is ready. And when the Lord went up to the gate, he was answered. The man in the green shirt gave up, knocked twice on the green brick on the ground, and the Bogu frame in the room suddenly moved, and a secret room appeared behind the wall.

Twilight glanced at the green brick, suddenly felt that the palm of her hand was pinched, and when she raised her eyes, she saw a faint smile in Bu Xihuan's eyes, and took her hand and entered the secret room.

In the secret room, you can see a downward stone staircase, and oil lamps on both sides lead the way, allowing only two people to walk side by side. This secret room is not as delicate as the secret passage of the palace, Bu Xihuan took the hand of the twilight and walked slowly, the sleeves were rolled, the gait was elegant, as if the jade bricks were paved under the feet, the hall in front of him was high and wide, and it was like the silence of the night in the depths of the night, he took her hand and walked under the corridor of the pearl to guide the way, and saw the richness and prosperity of the world.

Twilight sighed lightly, even if this person walked on a potholed yellow mud road, he could walk so leisurely.

The man's palm was warm, holding her hand, rubbing it for a while, Twilight was itchy, and couldn't help frowning and staring at Bu Xihuan. Feeling her gaze, the man smiled lowly, and the laughter was extremely lazy and pleasant in the cramped and long secret passage, scratching into his heart and lingering.

"At the gate of the city today, can you watch the drama comfortably?" Laugh and ask.

That day, the Empress Dowager issued an order for him to choose a concubine, she was not happy, he knew, so he secretly summoned the male concubine back to Beijing, so she felt more comfortable?

"Aren't you afraid that the Empress Dowager will order to kill these male concubines in anger?" Twilight knew what Bu Xihuan wanted to hear, but she didn't mention it.

Bu Xihuan sighed, knowing that it was more difficult to listen to the heartfelt words from her mouth than not to let her perform an autopsy, and sighed in his heart, but he said, "She won't." When I summoned the male concubine back to Beijing, people in the world would only think that I was unruly, unscrupulous, unfilial, and unfilial. The more I am like this, the more reason the Yuan family has to abolish the emperor, although this move is unexpected by her, but it is also beneficial to her, so she will keep those male concubines, let me mess around, and be scolded by the world. ”

In order not to let the Shengjing Palace get the news, Bu Xihuan picked the sons who had entered the cold palace a few years ago. But Twilight knew that the real male concubines had long since died, and their faces had been stripped of their skins to make human skin masks, and now wearing those human skin masks were the hidden guards of the Piercing Moon Division. The sons who were sent to spy on Bu Xihuan back then returned to Beijing and became the eyeliner that Bu Xihuan placed in the courtier's mansion. They are no longer powerless talented scholars, but well-trained killers, these people have entered the courtiers' mansions in a dignified manner, and in the future, they will be a sharp blade to control the courtiers!

Bu Xihuan's chess hand is beautiful, he has been "good at men" since he was fifteen years old, and this game has been carefully arranged for ten years, which can be described as far-reaching.

It's really hard for him.

"What happened to those palace concubines who were abused and killed back then?" Twilight asked. With the city of Bu Xihuan, he should be able to calculate that the empress dowager will choose a concubine for him, and what he is waiting for is this day, summoning the male concubines back to Beijing and arranging them into the courtier's mansion. So, the empress dowager has the heart of abolishing the emperor, why should she choose a concubine for him? Were those palace concubines really tortured and killed by Bu Xihuan back then?

"That's the Empress Dowager's means." Bu Xihuan smiled coldly, "At that time, the court was not all about the Yuan party, and I was growing up, and the court gradually had a disagreement with the Yuan family, so the empress dowager issued a decree to choose a concubine for me." The choice of concubines is fake, and it takes the opportunity to test the courtiers' intentions, but anyone who sends his daughter to the harem is regarded as a different party by the Yuan family. I knew that I must not have the heart of marriage, otherwise there would be a risk of insecurity, and I would ignore those women after they entered the palace, and only care about bowing and walking the horses, and having fun all day long. But they still died, and they were all done by the eunuchs I brought into the palace from the palace, and the civil and military of the Manchu Dynasty thought that the palace concubine was killed by me, and the eight courtiers hated me to the bone, and then they were all sent far away. Since then, no one in the court is willing to send his daughter to the palace to be my concubine, and I don't want to marry, lest he become a pro-government, except for a Yuan family, and another family will come. So he simply abandoned these, found another way, called himself a good man, widely selected the world's handsome sons, and went down to the Bianhe River every year. This move ruined the emperor's reputation, and it was beneficial to the Yuan family's plan to abolish the emperor, so the empress dowager did not detain me, but secretly sent many people to me. ”

"And then you spent ten years replacing all these people." Twilight Qing sighed, the Empress Dowager is really a woman who has experienced ups and downs in the deep palace, her means are clever, and Bu Xihuan is growing up day by day, and the city is quite deep, and this game between the two has seen the final battle.

"She now ordered to choose a concubine for me, because there are still neutral ministers in the court, she is not very at ease, and there are still some in the court who have been subdued in the prestige of the Yuan family, but because of the old grievances against the people she likes, she wants to take this opportunity to choose a concubine, and the women of these families will be selected into the palace, and the emperor will be abolished in the future, and they will be removed together. The Empress Dowager's move is already the final purge of the court. Bu Xihuan said lightly.

He said slowly, Du Qing didn't have much experience in court affairs, but he heard it clearly, and couldn't help asking: "You and the Yuan family must have a fight to the death, have you ever thought about how to treat Yuan Xiu?" ”

Yuan Xiu is dedicated to the country, he has no selfish grudges in his heart, he is a rare hero in this world, she admires him, and she doesn't want the world's people to deceive and fight for power and profit to ruin this good man.

But Bu Xihuan and the Empress Dowager are endless, the revenge of killing his mother must be avenged, and Yuan Xiu is affectionate, his aunt loves him to the bone, Yuan Xiangguo is his biological father, both of them are close relatives, he will not watch his father and aunt being executed.

Are Bu Xihuan and Yuan Xiu destined to become enemies?

Sure enough, Bu Xihuan was silent, only holding her hand and moving forward, without saying a word for a long time.

Twilight Qing didn't speak again, she knew that there was a solution, but she couldn't bear to say - only if Bu Xihuan put Yuan Xiangguo and the Empress Dowager under house arrest and didn't kill them, he and Yuan Xiu would not become enemies.

But this is too difficult for Bu Xihuan, just like the Queen Mother can't do it without avenging the murder of her son, she can't do it without avenging the murder of her father, they are all people who can't let go of family hatred in this world, why do you ask Bu Xihuan to let go of the revenge of killing her mother?

She couldn't persuade her to say this, she was too high-minded.

Bu Xihuan is the emperor, as the king of a country, he should serve the country and the people, put aside his own grievances, and leave a generation of famous generals who can secure the border. But he is also a son of man, and he has witnessed the tragic situation of his mother lying in the coffin, how can he not think about avenging his mother?

Bu Xihuan has a dilemma of being a prince and a son, and Yuan Xiu has a dilemma of being a minister and a son, and both of them are actually difficult.

"Qingqing." Bu Xihuan's voice suddenly came, Twilight Qing was held by him, half a step behind, when he raised his eyes to look at him, he only saw his back, and heard him say lightly, "You once said that in the grievances between the first emperor and the Yuan family, the innocent is me and the Nine Emperor Princes, but this is the fate of the royal descendants." My father Wang Yong is cowardly, there is no possibility of succession, I will only be the son of King Heng, and it has nothing to do with this world, but I entered the palace. Yuan Xiu is the same, he has no intention of seizing the throne, but he still has to come back after avoiding the northwest for ten years. We all have a shackle fate that we can't escape, and what will happen in the future is already determined. ”

Twilight was silent for a while before asking, "Do you believe in your fate?" ”

"Don't believe it!" Bu Xihuan smiled, if he believed in his fate, he would have accepted his fate a long time ago, why would he endure and plan in the deep palace for many years?

"You...... You don't want me to have a grudge against Yuan Xiu, do you? He asked, which seemed to be a bit of a difficult question.

"Yes." Dusk Qing said honestly that he and the Nine Emperor Princes were innocent back then, and now Yuan Xiu is also innocent.

This time, Xi Huan was silent, and Twilight only felt that he was holding her with a slight tightness, and led her slowly through the long secret passage, she didn't know how long she walked, only to feel that his warm palms were gradually sweating. Twilight had been walking slowly for half a step, not parallel to him, to see his expression, at this time, she thought that there must be waves in his heart, if it was her, she would need to be quiet. It's just that the secret passage is narrow, and she can't give him personal space, so she can only lag behind half a step. Maybe she should let go of his hand and let him walk ahead alone, thinking slowly, but for some reason she didn't let go. All these years, he was in a difficult situation and had been alone, and at this time she didn't want to let go of his hand and let him go alone.

She knew what it was like to be alone, and she felt that it was better to have someone with her than to go alone.

I don't know how long I walked forward, when Twilight looked up, I saw an upward stone staircase, the mechanism was also in the wick, Bu Xihuan flicked his fingers to extinguish the candle, pressed under the wick, and there was a sound of heavy objects moving away from the top, Twilight Qing picked up the steps, and went out of the secret passage to see that this was actually a Guanyin temple, and the statue of Guanyin with a golden body was moved away from half a zhang of the place, and after the two came up, the statue of Guanyin slowly moved to its original position.

The temple hall is quite small, but the incense is prosperous, and there is unburned Buddha incense at night, but the door of the temple is closed, and there is no sound everywhere. As soon as Bu Xihuan opened the door of the palace, the cold wind carried sporadic snowflakes in, although it was cold, it made people wake up.

Bu Xihuan stood at the door for a long time and didn't come out, Ren Yi hunted in the cold wind, and said for a long time: "Okay, then I will fight with this life again." ”

His voice was indifferent, not like the lazy and smiling on weekdays, and the twilight stood behind him, only to see the man's back as tall as the shore, the moon sleeves were wide, and suddenly the bright moon in the sky was replaced.

The two did not leave the small hall, but went to a nearby meditation room, where candlesticks were placed in the four corners, and two sets of Long Wuwei's clothes and two masks were placed on a meditation table.

When changing clothes, Twilight Qing went to the tent, and it was rare for the two of them to be serious, and the two quickly disguised themselves, and when they left the small temple, they were already Long Wuwei.

This temple is not far from the city gate, look up and you can see the tower, Bu Xihuan took Twilight Qing to stop at the corner of an alley, about a moment of waiting, heard the sound of the three watches, after a while, a team of dragon guards walked in front of the alley, Twilight Qing took refuge in the alley, saw the last two people in the alley when they passed through the alley silently turned in, the moonlight shone on the faces of the two, it was exactly the same as the face of Twilight and Bu Xihuan!

Twilight Qing suddenly understood, and as soon as she saw the two of them enter the alley, she and Bu Xihuan walked out of the alley and followed behind the team of dragon guards.

This team of people went to the city gate to change the guard, just after the change of guard, there was a person who would invite them to go to the corner tower to eat and drink, this team of Long Wuwei's squad leader did not feel inappropriate, obviously this kind of lazy and slippery things have been done many times in the night.

When they arrived at the corner tower, everyone drank and punched, and after a while, all the medicine was poured out, and the general knelt down and said, "The Lord needs to return to the city before the fifth watch." ”

Bu Xihuan responded lightly, the partial general opened the city gate, Twilight Qing and Bu Xihuan walked out of the city for two or three miles, a carriage came out of the forest next to the official road, the two got into the carriage, and went straight to the Dahan Temple.

Dahan Temple is in the middle of the mountain, the mountain road is winding, the bright moon hangs high, the forest on both sides is like a sea of night flowers, Bu Xihuan picked up the curtain, gazing at the mountain flowers by the moonlight, Dusk Qing knew that he remembered the incident when he accompanied his mother to the mountain to worship the Buddha when he was a child, so he never made a sound to disturb all the way.

It wasn't until the carriage stopped that Bu Xihuan came back to his senses and found that he had arrived at the gate of the temple.

When Twilight got out of the carriage and took a look, she realized that this was not the main gate of the Great Han Temple, but a small gate near the peach forest. The carriage drove into the forest and hid it, and the coachman came forward and knocked five times, and when the door opened, a small novice saluted Bu Xihuan and Dusk Qing, and led the two into the temple.

But as soon as the temple gate was closed, I saw someone coming from afar!

The little novice paused, took Twilight's hand tightly, and took her to hide behind the rockery next to her! When Twilight Qing saw this, she knew that the person was not a person who took a happy step, and she couldn't help but feel a little sad, all the way out of the city, everything was arranged, and something went wrong in the temple!

At this time, the little novice stepped forward, saluted the visitor, and said, "Uncle Shi......"

The man did not wait for the little novice to finish speaking, then pronounced the Buddha's name, and said to the rockery: "The two donors, please show up, the abbot is invited." ”

Twilight Qing was a little stunned, raised her eyes and frowned when she saw Bu Xihuan, and then walked out from behind the rockery with her, and asked lightly: "Dare to ask the abbot master how he knows that the two of us are here tonight?" ”

The monk smiled and said, "The abbot said that the distinguished guest is visiting, please see it." ”

Guest? See?

Twilight suddenly felt strange, can the abbot of this Dahan Temple pinch it?

Bu Xihuan's face was slightly pale, and he had more respect, and said with a calm smile: "Then Master Lao will lead the way." ”

The monk smiled and turned around, Bu Xihuan and Dusk Qing followed, Dahan Temple is the Great Xingguo Temple, magnificent, the two passed several halls, it was very long to walk, only then arrived at a Zen temple outside, the door opened, a light in the room was like a bean, an old monk sat quietly in front of the Buddha statue, heard the door open, and looked at Dusk Qing first when he opened his eyes-

Off topic -

Don't ask me about Feng Xing's death or anything, it's not.
