The glazed palace is burning with a heavy smell of incense, as if it was specially concocted to suppress the strong smell of medicine everywhere. The queen's body was fine when she pulled out the poison, but now she is awake and recovers quickly, after the rain, the sky is sunny and the dark clouds are overwhelmed, and the people in the palace are in good spirits. Looking through the window, the seasonal flowers and plants are still blooming well, and although it is late autumn and early winter, the scenery outside the hall is pleasing to the eye.

Although the scenery was beautiful, the clear eyes of the heart only stayed for a moment, and after a short period of contemplation, he closed his eyes again and chanted alone in silence. Previously, even though the invitation documents with the official seal came like snowflakes, and there was even a handwritten letter written by the Queen Mother herself, while talking with him about Buddhism and Taoism, she warmly invited him to have more contacts with the palace, but Xinche still politely and indifferently rejected everyone's kindness. He never imagined that one day he would actually end up in this golden cage on all sides.

"Cage?"

As soon as this thought grew, Xin Che followed it silently with the phrase "sin". His identity should not have given birth to such a strongly biased statement, "The heart is the source of evil, and the form is sin", and it is only the individual himself who really becomes a barrier and confusion, not the place where he is located.

The silence around him could only be heard as the slight plucking of the rosary between his fingers, and even the sound of breathing and heartbeat was hidden in the heavy aroma.

The Golden Palace of the Imperial Palace is not as good as the Green Lantern Ancient Temple, and Xin Che stepped into the palace forbidden three days ago, and this thought has been circling in his mind. The world is so big, the monks have no home, and they should be at peace wherever they go, and he comforted himself like this. The blue beads in his hand shook lightly a few times.

After all, he is a person who practices martial arts, although he is in a foreign place and recites the scriptures with his eyes closed, but the five senses are all divergent outside, so when the palace people deliberately approach with light steps, he will notice it for the first time, and turn around and take the lead in breaking the peace.

"Amitabha, what's the matter with the benefactor?"

The person who came was a young maid with a beautiful appearance, and her dress seemed to be the palace man who was serving in the glass hall. Xin Che came alone to save people's lives, and after a few days of diagnosis and treatment in the queen's palace, he still didn't recognize these palace people who looked similar. It's still the original master of Xinche, who has never been cold. Never put a little thought on irrelevant and meaningless trivialities.

He offered to talk. The maid who approached her blushed and hesitated a few times before she finally summoned up the courage to raise her head and meet her eyes.

"That, the master has recently healed His Majesty and Niangniang at the same time, and it is really hard. At the moment, there is still an autumn breeze outside. Standing like this, I am afraid that it is easy to catch the wind cold. ”

Two simple sentences. The maid stumbled a few times intermittently before she finished speaking. Looking at Xinche's eyes, half shy, half enthusiastic, the blushing became more and more intense, and he secretly gritted his teeth before holding a stove in his hand in front of Xinche.

"Even if the master is not afraid of the wind and cold, it is better not to freeze."

The maid's words flickered. One moment ago, he said that he should "be careful of the cold", and the next moment he said "not afraid of the wind and cold", which was obviously a little too nervous, and the words did not reach the meaning. Xu is girl Huaichun's eyes were full of unconcealed care, and Xinche immediately took a step back and opened up some distance very vigilantly.

"The donor is polite, saving people's lives is better than creating a seventh-level floating slaughter, saving people is the responsibility that people in Buddhism should bear, and poor monks dare not take credit for themselves. As for this, it is thanks to kindness and gratitude, and those who practice martial arts do not need to be close to the stove. ”

Xin Che made a gesture of refusal, and after bowing to the maid with his hand, he had no intention of continuing the conversation, but closed his eyes and began to chant again. The maid touched a soft nail, was stunned in the distance for a while, bit her lower lip and glanced at the back of her heart as straight as a pine, but after all, she couldn't muster up the courage to continue talking.

People don't know when and how he entered the palace, and they don't even know his specific name, but they know that this person was respected as a saint by the queen mother as soon as he appeared, not only was he courteous, but he also successfully saved the emperor and queen from the emergency and pain.

What's more, although this saint is a well-known monk, he was born with a young and vigorous good-looking skin, and in the original words of the rumor, he is a "real worldly master with picturesque eyebrows and the sun and moon in his arms".

The rumors are not exaggerated, and every palace maid who has heard or seen the heart is eager to rub in the direction of the Liuli Palace at all times, so that they can witness the so-called "celestial demeanor", and the little maid is one of them. Although her enthusiasm was still rejected without hesitation as expected, it still did not prevent her from continuing to pay attention quietly.

The voice of the chanting was deep and clear, and the vague scriptures seemed to flow out of the chest, and before they could be dispersed in the air, they were reabsorbed by a powerful force, and the end of each sentence that seemed to be there hit the bystanders who were listening to it just right. Even the Queen Mother waited until his scriptures stayed at a certain pause before she slowly walked out of the inner hall and politely and respectfully called, "Master, well." ”

The two greeted each other, and they didn't show any difference after getting along for a few days, and they were grateful to the Queen Mother for respecting the Buddha and re-establishing the state religion, and the Queen Mother respected him for being a rare cultivator in the temple when he was young.

Xin Che asked a few words about the queen's situation, and the queen mother replied carefully one by one, and the content was completely consistent with Xin Che's previous inference, and Xin Che said congratulations to the queen mother with a relaxed expression, saying that the queen would be completely cured in a day or two.

"It's good to be healed, but it's not a happy event. Originally, it was an unwarranted disaster that flew into the disaster, not to mention that the disaster did not go alone. ”

The Queen Mother's expression was not very good after being tired for days, and when she said a word of flying disaster, the heart and eyes of the person sitting on one side changed slightly, but she didn't say a word, and the Queen Mother sighed again.

"Thanks to the master's timely help, otherwise my sons and daughters would have suffered a lot, not to mention that it will hurt the country in general in the long run, and it will be scary to think about it."

"The Queen Mother is serious, what the poor monk does is just right to comply with the will of God, if you really want to thank it, you should also thank the Queen Mother herself. My Buddha is compassionate, and the immeasurable merits of my mother are all in front of me, so I can naturally be blessed by God. ”

Xinche's words are good, and even the Queen Mother's slightly depressed thoughts have dissipated for a while, and the fingers that originally stroked her forehead slightly pulled the sideburns and broken hair was a rare look of embarrassment.

"The master is young and promising, neither proud nor rigid, is really a rare talent, no wonder people often say that the reincarnation of the Yunju Temple is a rare monk in a hundred years."

"The poor monk is just a messenger who serves the Buddha, and he never dares to claim to be a great monk. Niangniang can just call it whatever she wants, Xinche can't afford such a 'master' title. ”

is talented but not talented, and the queen mother feels more and more that this person is very good. The two talked happily for a while, and the Queen Mother did not hesitate to express her appreciation for Xinche and Yunju Temple, and even openly and secretly raised the question of the candidate for the national teacher who left the country many times.

It wasn't until the Queen Mother smiled and said, "Master should be rewarded", that Xinche took the initiative to answer the conversation for the first time and asked respectfully in a deep voice.

"Since this is the case, the poor monk has the courage to beg the Queen Mother to spare one person's life." (To be continued.) )
