Xi Ze walked out angrily and sat down on the phoenix seat in the main hall of Shou'an Palace. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

When the concubines saw Xi Ze, they all got up and bowed down: "The concubines meet the emperor!" ”

Xi Ze looked at everyone on the phoenix seat, slowed down his emotions, and said, "Let's all be flat!" You've been serving here these days, and you've worked hard, so sit down and talk! ”

"Emperor Xie!" Only then did the concubines sit down one after another and look at Xi Ze.

Xi Ze turned his eyes to look at Wang Ningxuan and asked, "Empress, how many people have entered the inner hall to serve today?" ”

Wang Ningxuan replied: "If you go back to the emperor, there are concubines who go to the inner hall to serve today, Concubine Jing, Concubine Yu and Wang Jieyu!" ”

Xi Ze nodded thoughtfully when he heard this, his eyes suddenly turned to Shen Luyi's body, and asked, "Concubine Jing, have you recited Buddha?" ”

Shen Luyi's heart was stunned when he heard this, and he didn't know what Xi Ze's question meant, so he just replied truthfully: "No, the concubines don't chant Buddha!" ”

Xi Ze snorted, then turned his eyes to look at Yu Guifei, and asked, "Cousin, I heard that you often copy Buddhist scriptures for the queen mother, have you recited Buddha today?" ”

Seeing that something was wrong with the situation, Concubine Yu replied cautiously: "The concubine didn't chant Buddha today!" ”

Xi Ze further asked, "Then you usually accompany your mother to chant Buddha?" ”

Concubine Yu shook her head and said, "No, I just helped my aunt copy the Buddhist scriptures, and I didn't recite the Buddha!" ”

Xi Ze's gaze was like a torch, and he stayed on Wang Ningxuan's body again, and asked, "Queen, have you recited Buddha today?" ”

Wang Ningxuan lifted his mind and replied, "There are no concubines!" ”

"Then I ask you, have you ever recited Buddha with your mother before?"

Wang Ningxuan suddenly became a little nervous, and said a little hesitantly: "Concubine...... The concubine didn't dare to deceive the emperor, so the concubine accompanied the queen mother to read once or twice, but the concubine did not recite the Buddha in her own palace, nor did she copy the Buddhist scriptures! Please also ask the emperor to see it! ”

When Xi Ze heard this, his face was not very good, he snorted coldly, and said heavily: "Your temperament is too docile, you will do whatever the queen mother asks you to do, you never know how to refuse, the queen mother asked you to accompany her to chant Buddha, you accompany her to chant Buddha?" Have you ever wondered who you are? Listen to me, you are not allowed to recite the Buddha! You are the queen and the mother of a country, how can you chant Buddha like a monk? Do you want to become a nun? ”

Xi Ze said seriously, Wang Ningxuan was stunned, and hurriedly shook his head and said: "The concubine has no such idea, it is completely to make the queen mother happy, but the concubine does not believe in Buddhism, since the emperor does not like it, the concubine will never read it again in the future!" ”

Xi Ze snorted and didn't speak.

Then, his eyes turned to Wang Jieyu and asked, "Wang Jieyu, are you pregnant and chanting Buddha?" ”

Wang Jieyu hurriedly said: "The concubine never recites Buddha, please rest assured!" ”

Xi Ze glanced at her coldly, looked down again, and said, "Who else among you recites Buddha?" ”

When the concubines below heard this, you look at me, I look at you, and they shook their heads.

Seeing this, Xi Ze said in a cold voice: "Today, have you seen anyone chanting Buddha? ”

"No ......," the concubines still shook their heads.

The atmosphere suddenly became a little tense, Xi Ze seemed to be a little angry, everyone was cautious about their own actions, and they didn't even dare to breathe.

Xi Ze glanced at the concubines below, and said without a trace of warmth: "If any of you are chanting Buddha, I will fulfill her, send her to the temple, and let her recite enough!" Did you hear me clearly? ”

Everyone hurriedly replied in unison: "Hear clearly! ”

Xi Ze snorted, and then said coldly: "You are all here to serve today, has anyone come to the Queen Mother to mention Master Mingkong?" ”

The concubines still shook their heads.

Xi Ze turned his eyes to look at Wang Ningxuan and asked, "Empress, you are serving in the inner hall, have you heard that someone went to the Queen Mother today to mention Master Mingkong?" ”

Wang Ningxuan shook his head and replied truthfully: "Today, the concubine didn't hear anyone mention Master Mingkong in front of the queen mother!" Besides, Master Mingkong has been imprisoned in the Severe Punishment Division, which is a taboo thing in the palace, who else will mention him? ”

When Xi Ze heard this, he muttered for a long time, his eyes stared straight down, and said heavily and powerfully: "You all listen to me, from now on, everyone supervises each other, if anyone comes to the queen mother to mention Master Mingkong, I will send her to Mingkong as a companion, as long as you see it, come and report it to me, as long as the report is true, I will be rewarded, have you heard clearly?" ”

Everyone hurriedly said: "The concubine obeys the order!" ”

Xi Ze then instructed: "You stay in this main hall and wait for the summons, all give me some points, without the summons of the queen mother, don't go in, don't make loud noises, don't affect the rest of the queen mother, have you remembered clearly?" ”

Everyone said in unison: "The concubines obey the order, and they all remember it clearly!" ”

After Xi Ze finished explaining these things, he got up and walked out of the inner hall, came to the courtyard and stood, quietly looking at the bright moon in the sky, waiting for the result of praying for the night's treatment!

Seeing that Xi Ze did not leave, the concubines did not dare to speak, even if it was just whispering, they just passed glances to each other, and each was cautious about his behavior.

Seeing Xi Ze standing alone in the courtyard for a long time, as if he was preoccupied, Yun Tian got up and came behind Xi Ze, and asked gently, "Xi Ze, what's wrong with you?" What happened? You look so upset! ”

Xi Ze heard Yun Tian's voice, turned to look at Yun Tian, frowned and said, "The queen mother asked me to release that demon monk again, that is a liar, why does the queen mother still believe him?" ”

It turned out that because of this, Yun Tian gently persuaded: "The Queen Mother doesn't believe in Master Mingkong, the Queen Mother just believes in Buddhism, don't be angry!" ”

Xi Ze sighed and said, "It's all very ethereal things, I have already made it clear to the queen mother, why does the queen mother still believe it?" ”

Yun Tian persuaded: "The Queen Mother is old, her mind is wandering, and she needs a support, so she will believe in the things of God and Buddha, and she has always recited Buddha, and she believes in Buddha very much, and you suddenly let her stop believing in Buddha, it will be useless for a while!" ”

Xi Ze said again: "I was thinking, when the Queen Mother mentioned Master Mingkong today, did someone say something in front of her?" Did you hear that today? ”

Yun Tian shook his head and said, "I've been sitting in the main hall, and I haven't gone to the inner hall to serve, but I haven't heard anyone mention Mingkong!" ”

"Then do you see anyone chanting Buddha?" Xi Ze asked again.

Yun Qian thought for a while and said, "When I was sitting in the main hall, I saw that Concubine Yu had her eyes closed all the time, and she was chanting words in her mouth, I don't know if she was praying?" (To be continued.) )
