041 Mistaken Lonely Soul
At this time, it is the middle of winter, and Yu Wenyong and his party have passed through Zhongnan Mountain to Chang'an has been a few days later, the weather is still good, sitting on horseback and looking into the distance, the huge Chang'an City is even more majestic under the warm winter sun.
"Report ...... Since yesterday afternoon, Wei Xiaokuan of the Zhu State has led a group of ministers of the court and the central government to admonish each other with death under the city gate, if the emperor insists on letting Concubine Yan enter Chang'an City! They will drink poisonous wine and kill themselves, the matter is so important that the minions dare not make their own decisions, so they have to wait for the emperor here!"
Before entering the city, someone came out to intercept me, I couldn't help but laugh bitterly, and when I turned my head to look at Yu Wenyong, there was an instant more provocation in my eyes.
"Didn't the emperor inform them that it was not Concubine Yan who came back, but the queen of your Great Zhou Kingdom......
Before he finished speaking, he turned and pointed to the guard kneeling in front of the horse and said loudly:
"You slave, you dare to offend this palace with words, come here, give me my mouth, without the order of this palace, Hugh has to stop!"
My tone was arrogant, and as soon as the words came out, a ruthless light appeared in my eyes, and the guards in front of me all looked embarrassed, at a loss, and their eyes could only fall on Yu Wenyong's face in hesitation.
I snorted softly, disapproving, presumably in this way, no one can tolerate me in their eyes anymore... At this moment, Yu Wenyong suddenly jumped off the horse, and I didn't understand what he meant, and a loud slap exploded in my ears......
Yu Wenyong's sudden action made me stunned, and when I saw him waving his hand and turning around, he threw a straight look at me, his expression was arrogant, a touch of stubbornness flashed in his deep eyes, and he scolded the group of people in front of him in a low voice:
"Go and tell them that I want to canonize Concubine Yan as the queen, and whoever obstructs it will be punished with death!"
His words were firm, and there was a faint determination in his words that was irrefutable.
I was shocked in my heart, and when he said this, I immediately lost my proportions, so I had to avoid his gaze and excuse myself:
"They won't even let me enter the city? How can they allow me to be a queen! Why don't the emperor slow this down in advance, I see the picturesque scenery outside the city, which is also conducive to my impatient temperament, why don't you let me spend a year and a half outside the city, and wait for the government and the opposition to settle down and everything calms down, and then canonize me as the queen, so that even if they have another statement! They may not be like today! Let the emperor embarrass you!"
Yu Wenyong listened to my words, silent, I was uneasy in my heart, I don't know what he is going to do?
"Since I ascended the throne, there have been constant wars in the world, and the people have suffered unspeakably. Now that the end of the year is approaching, I want to go to Guiyuan Temple to live for a while, fasting and bathing, praying for the blessings of the people of the world!
In the middle of the night, the cold snow of the winter began to whirl in the air, the sky was cold, the cold wind was bone-chilling, and the Guiyuan Temple, isolated in the snow, was shrouded in an inexplicable mystery under the cold of the snow. The copper bell at the corner of the eaves tinkled in the cold wind, mixed with the Zen chanting of the monks in the temple in the evening class, and the sound of the wooden fish, which suddenly made people's hearts more clear.
The civil and military officials waited outside the city gate for a long time, but they didn't expect Yu Wenyong to leave them behind, and directly took me to live in the Guiyuan Temple, and they were panicked for a while, presumably Wei Xiaokuan was really unwilling, and failed to give up, under his leadership, a group of important ministers in the court came to visit the Guiyuan Temple late at night, and knelt on the ground layer after layer outside the main hall without fear of wind and snow......
Since I was a child, I have faintly heard that Xiao Yan, Emperor Wu of Liang in the Southern Dynasty, emphasized Buddhism, and gave up his life in Tongtai Temple three times, and each time he let the ministers of the court redeem it with hundreds of millions of money, resulting in the emptiness of the treasury, the people were looted, and finally the country was ruined.
But this time Yu Wenyong suddenly decided to live in Guiyuan Temple, how could the civil and military ministers of the Manchu Dynasty not be suspicious, counting the rise and fall of the Southern Dynasties one by one, and scolding me in private was nothing more than a demon girl bewitching the emperor to repeat the mistakes of the past, disaster to the country and the people, and so on, but I never thought that Yu Wenyong's real intention was that he couldn't let go of the word "love".
At this time, while Yu Wenyong was going to deal with the ministers, I handed over the child in my hand to the maid who was summoned from the palace to take care of it, and I went out of the house and silently explored the escape route in the temple.
Thinking all the way, I followed my temperament through the temple, and before I knew it, I went to the depths. By this time the snow had stopped, and by the faint candles scattered in the corners of the temple, I saw that there was a very simple wooden house at the end of the road, and I felt uneasy, and I was about to turn away without much thought, when suddenly a deep voice came from the house behind me:
"Amitabha, since the female benefactor is destined to be here, why don't you go into the house and talk about it?"
I frowned, I didn't know why, and my voice paused before replying to him:
"It's just a female stream in the next place, and I'm afraid it's inconvenient to take the liberty of visiting, and I hope that Master Haihan will come!"
As soon as I finished speaking, the voice continued:
"It doesn't matter, the donor is a woman, and the monk has been meditating for many years. This invitation is nothing more than because the old monk happened to get a piece of colorful water jade many years ago, and he wanted to ask the donor a few questions!"
As soon as he said this, my heart trembled, and I subconsciously touched my waist, the colorful water jade that was silently kept from Yun Si was obviously still there, why did he suddenly mention this? Could it be that he knew something, could it?
With a thought, the bamboo door of the wooden house opened slowly without wind. I hesitated slightly, but after all, I couldn't resist the doubts in my heart, and still stepped into the wooden house.
The house was shabby, a dim oil lamp lit with a bean-sized yellow light, and the wooden house flickered brightly and darkly. I fixed my eyes and saw a young monk sitting on the bamboo bed by the window, his cloth robe was a little old, and what surprised me was that his appearance did not match the low, old-fashioned voice I had just heard......
"The female donor doesn't need to panic, the poor monk Shi Lingyu cultivates dry Zen, so the appearance can last for a long time!"
When the monk saw that my eyes were astonished, he explained with words, his eyes were inexplicable, and his tone was even more calm and stable, I really didn't know what he was going to do?
"Where is the colorful water jade that the master said now?"
The monk threw a glance at me, slowly raised his hand, his palm slightly open, and I saw that he really had a piece of colorful water jade in his hand, which was scorching in the dim candlelight.
He stared at me for a long time, and there was an inexplicable frightening power in his eyes, and I was uncertain when I saw it, and after a long time, he finally spoke:
"All the sufferings of the female benefactor are due to her involuntarily self-conscious! If she can recover herself, she will be able to get out of the sea of suffering!"
"The reply itself?"
I was shocked by his words, did he really know everything, knew that I was not from this era, knew that all kinds of evil were all because I couldn't help myself......
"Where you came from, where you will go back now! The troubled times and strife you have brought will also be restored to peace with you leaving!"
As he spoke, his voice stopped, and he slowly got up and walked slowly towards me, and said to me word by word:
"Don't think about this scene anymore! This bitterness and happiness are all vain to the donor, and obsession with this is just looking at the moon in the water and looking for flowers in the mirror. Why don't you make up your mind to go to Longmen Mountain with the old monk as soon as possible, and work together to open the Yan Gate and find your true nature, it is better than continuing to be a lonely ghost who has returned to the wrong place and suffering in vain!"
