I smiled faintly and said, "It's not considerate, it's just pushing yourself and others." ”

The Imperial Doctor didn't say anything more, just packed up the medicine box. I asked lightly: "If the imperial doctor finds out about some unsightly murder in the palace, will he tell the truth or hide it?" ”

The imperial doctor's hand froze for a moment, and then he said respectfully: "How can such a thing be met by the ministers?" The mother laughed. ”

I said lightly, "I'm afraid that some of them can only be seen by you as imperial doctors," I paused slightly, and said, "For example, poisoning ......."

The things in the doctor's hand fell on the table with a clatter, and I gave him a faint look, and he hurriedly put the things away. After a while, the Imperial Doctor said: "If this happens, and you have been informed in advance or not warned in advance, no matter what the situation is, the Imperial Doctor will have the same tongue," the Imperial Doctor looked around and said in a low voice, "That's it, I don't know." ”

After listening to this, my blood cooled and I sat there in a daze. The Imperial Physician was already packing up and preparing to go out, I raised my eyes and looked over, the Imperial Physician's sideburns were a little spotted with gray hair, and I saw him carrying the medicine box out, so I said: "The Imperial Physician is a person with excellent medical skills, and he is also a person with a clear mind. The fact that Tai Hospital has gone through ups and downs for so many years and can still occupy a place in Tai Hospital is not just the result of excellent medical skills. ”

The imperial doctor turned around lightly, looked at me, the traces of the vicissitudes of time on his face became more and more obvious, and said, "I made an exception here in Niangniang, and Weichen said something that shouldn't be said." ”

I looked at this old man who was the same age as my father, and said softly, "It's the palace that asked something that shouldn't be asked, why didn't the imperial doctor resign from his position here and return to his hometown to live?" ”

The imperial doctor smiled faintly and said, "Niangniang, people like Weichen know too much, and they will die in the Tai Hospital." He sighed and said, "If not, it will be Weichen's family who will die." ”

I looked at him in shock, but the imperial doctor still smiled faintly: "Weichen saved the life and helped the wounded, but I don't know where he did it, and he may not get a good end in this life." Healers are so scared. His voice was hoarse, and he said, "That's it, it's Weichen's long-cherished wish that Weichen's family is safe." ”

The Imperial Physician retreated, leaving me stunned in the room.

The sun outside the window is still clean and warm in winter, and I am always used to equating my feelings with other people's feelings. It's easy for me to live here, and I think it's easy for others. I thought I was on the side of justice trying to find those who wanted to kill, but I forgot that more people would lose their lives because of it. That's why the imperial doctor in the cold palace was trembling that day, right? He knew everything, he didn't dare to say it, he couldn't say it, and he was afraid that I would see it, afraid that I would ask, and that I would kill him if I couldn't ask, so he was difficult to ride a tiger no matter what, so he was in a cold sweat.

How have I persecuted others like this?

In the evening, I went to see Miao Wu again, and she was much better, willing to take medicine, and ate some things, and her complexion was much better. Xiang'er has been guarding her, and I am much more relieved, so I didn't stay long.

There have been too many things in recent days, and I have been trapped in the palace for a long time, so I sneaked out of the palace without anyone on the second day.

The bustling atmosphere is full of New Year's atmosphere, selling Spring Festival couplets, selling New Year's goods, and practicing dragon and lion dances on the street, a long queue...... There is also an endless stream of merchants from the Western Regions who are also entering Beijing to do business. I squeezed around in the crowd, and suddenly missed Qi Yue very much, but I couldn't get in touch for a while at the moment, so I could only increase my sadness.

I just wanted to go to Qixia Temple to see the concubine, so I hired a carriage and went to Qixia Temple.

The road is bumpy, the snow on the steps of the mountain temple has not yet melted, and the branches of the trees on the mountain are intertwined, so that the atmosphere of the evening drum and morning bell is extraordinarily solemn. I told the carriage to wait at the bottom of the hill, and went up step by step.

It's still the same as before, the thousand-year-old temple is still the same as it was a thousand years ago, seeing the prosperity of the world and the world, which is why people here can always see through people's hearts at a glance, right? Because people can't get rid of endless desires and desires, and always think about many possibilities and impossibilities. A person who has no desires and no desires is always much cleaner than a person who is full of desires.

I climbed up and stood on the stone steps at the edge of the mountain temple and looked at the mountains in the distance, the boundless mountains hidden in the winter mist, the sunlight was no longer transparent and clear, but faint, foggy, and the distant mountains were hidden here.

I stood there and looked at it for a long time, and exclaimed, "What beautiful rivers and mountains......"

When a little master next to me heard my exclamation, he also stopped and said, "All things are spiritual. ”

I turned around, saluted the little master, and smiled: "That's what the master said." "My expression dimmed a little, in fact, I have the next sentence, that is: what a beautiful river and mountain, it has been created by how many lives and cannibalism......

The little master said respectfully: "Is the donor here to ask for a signature?" ”

I shook my head and said, "Come and see an old man enshrined here." Can you ask the master to lead the way? ”

The little master said, "Then please come with me." The little master led the way, and I followed and asked, "May I ask the master, how often does the royal family come to worship?" ”

The little master said: "Don't blame the donor, the poor monk has just been ordained a monk for less than a month, and many daily matters and Buddhism are still being practiced. Therefore, the benefactor asked about it, and the poor monk did not know about it. ”

When he arrived at the place, the little master said: "The donor can go in to find the name of the deceased, and the date of birth and death can be known, and the poor monk is waiting here for the son to come out, and then lead the son out." ”

I saluted and said, "Thank you, master." And he went in.

The rows were full of tablets dedicated to the dead, and I didn't know the name of the concubine, so I searched for it according to the day I left, and saw the tablet of the concubine in an inconspicuous corner. I squatted down, carefully wiped the dust on it, and put on two more pillars of incense.

I looked at it quietly for a long time, and said softly: "Concubine, I know the grievances of your death, but I am only afraid that I will bring many innocent people at the moment, so I must not find out the real culprit who killed you," I sighed and said, "It's just that Concubine, you can rest assured, the truth will always surface, in the next life, don't be born in such an era, find a free place, and experience what it means to be alive." ”

The birds outside were chirping happily, but even the sun was lingering outside the door in the house, the atmosphere was gloomy, and I don't know where a trace of wind squeezed in through the cracks in the window, slowly blowing away the scattered and neat incense ashes, blowing scattered but smooth......

I knelt there for a long time, thinking that the little master was still waiting for me outside, and I didn't want to linger long, so I just came out hesitantly. The little master waited quietly outside, and when he saw me come out, he smiled faintly, turned around and showed me the way.

The little master said lightly: "The poor monk doesn't know who the donor's so-called old man is, but he just wants to say to the donor that the deceased is gone." ”

I smiled faintly and said, "Master's words are good, but what I can't let go of is not the old man who has gone, but why the old man left and what he suffered when he left." ”

The little master said: "Everyone has their own destiny, and the donor can't help all sentient beings, but can just do his best." ”

There was still dry grass on the green brick road, swaying in the breeze, and I blurted out: "Dare to ask the master why he entered the empty door?" ”

The little master stopped, looked at me lightly, I lowered my head slightly, and smiled: "The four major people who enter the Buddha Gate are empty, I asked the wrong question." ”

The little master smiled faintly and said: "The donor has nothing to avoid, since it is the four major emptiness, if the heart is ethereal, I am not afraid of the mortal dust to disturb me." The little master said and continued to walk, saying, "The poor monk did not suffer a lot of setbacks in his life before he converted to Buddhism, the poor monk just saw it, it's just that." ”

Seeing that I seemed to have some doubts, the little master slowly spoke: "The poor monks and laymen came from a famous family and a scholarly family. The third generation of the lay family is an official, although he is not a powerful government and the opposition, he is also a high-ranking official. The little master had already led me to the place where I came, stood still, and said lightly, "The poor monk was also pinned on high hopes that day, he was carefully cultivated since he was a child, and he was used to seeing the glory and wealth of this world, and he felt helpless when he saw a lot of deceit between brothers. ”

I replied lightly: "Therefore, it is broken and put down." ”

The little master bowed his head lightly and said, "That's right," he looked at me and said lightly, "The poor monk is convinced that the donor is also a person with wise roots, so why should he be serious about the affairs of the world?" How can this reincarnation of life be easily escaped? ”

I sighed, "That's exactly what the master said." ”

The clear sky was covered by wisps of clouds, which covered the original blue with a slight chill, and the slightly chilly weather brought a little bit of snow or two. It didn't flutter down, but fell straight down, falling in the mountains, falling on corrugated, falling on dead branches, falling in the palm of the hand, cold in a place as big as a needle's eye seeping into the bone marrow, cold to the bone.

The little master looked at the falling snow and said lightly: "Being unable to predict life is like being unable to predict falling snow." ”

I just looked at the falling snow with a smile, and the little master said: "People, just like snow, are noble, but I don't know where they fell halfway, whether they melted in the mud or died in the plum blossoms, and I don't know the ending." ”

I stood for a short moment, then took my leave. Walking on the mountain road, the words of the little master "People are as ...... as snow" echoed in his ears, many years ago, Qi Min also said this, the throne, whether it is fought or not, his result is like snow. Descending the mountain along the thin snow road, the snow fell finely, some just lying quietly on the stone steps, and some were trampled under my feet, how different the fate was...... I smiled faintly: "It melted like snow...... "Whether it's clean or dirty, it's just melting."
