Chapter 11: Close

After the completion of the ceremony, Jue Repentance was left behind by the emperor, as the name suggests, to discuss the law of the country, in fact, Jue Repentance himself also understood in his heart, this is nothing more than the emperor is asking about the art of immortality again.

Jue regretted his face and folded his hands towards the Chongzhen Emperor, and then he remembered that the girl was still in the meditation room, so he ordered the little novice to go over. I wanted to see how the girl broke the chess game, but I guess I don't have a chance.

Ten years, it has been more than ten years since Emperor Chongzhen was in power alone, so this time on the day of the little gods, Emperor Chongzhen also came to Daming Temple with the Queen Mother.

The large-scale ritual of worshiping the heavens has ended, and all the palace concubines and women have dispersed in an orderly manner and went to those halls to worship the gods.

For a time, Daming Temple was full of people.

Hao Zhen'er stayed alone in the meditation room, holding a white and black son in one hand and playing against herself, she didn't have any hobbies before, but she had some research on chess games, because she felt that this harem was also like a chess game, fighting silently.

In the second half of her life, her mind was almost all placed in those intrigues, people's hearts were ugly, good and evil, and human feelings were warm and cold, and she looked at them all over the years.

He has also been betrayed, and he has betrayed others.

The qiΔ“ of the harem is like a play that will never end, you sing it, we appear, and everything you think in your heart is much the same.

With the fall of the last sunspot and the end of the chess game, Hao Zhen'er's thinking gradually flew away, and the face that would not appear for ten thousand years showed the vicissitudes and loneliness that did not match her age at the moment.

What was infected in those young eyes was not indifference, but the vicissitudes of sudden aging.

"Little donor." Little Novice walked in.

Hao Zhen'er came back to her senses and saw the little novice walking in, "What's the matter?" She recognized this little monk and was following Jue Peng

Xiao Shami clasped his hands together, "The master told me to tell the little donor that he wants to teach the emperor the Dharma, and if the donor is bored, he can go out for a walk." ”

"Well, I know, I'm sorry for the little master."

"Donor, please, if you want to go somewhere, let them lead the way." After speaking, the little novice turned and left.

After Xiao Shami left, Xiao Tao entered the house and waited for Hao Zhen'er to stay and put on shoes.

Is Jue Repentant preaching Buddhism to Emperor Chongzhen? Hao Zhen'er hooked the corners of her mouth, if she remembers correctly, the current emperor has passed the age of his establishment, and Murong Hao's health is not very good in his life.

She remembered that the crown princess was calculated to be born prematurely, she died in order to give birth to this son, and lost her mother at a young age, and the prince's particularly favored side concubine controlled a matter in the prince's mansion.

If it weren't for her, the great grandmother, who was guarding him behind his back, Murong Hao probably wouldn't have the life to sit in today's seat.

Hao Zhen'er walked out of the meditation room and asked if there was any quiet place here, now there are too many palace concubines and noblewomen, this is unnatural, and she has seen a lot of this kind of thing in her previous life.

Now is different from the past, she is no longer the high-ranking empress dowager, she has no ability to protect herself now, and she doesn't want to be involved for no reason.

So if you can't afford to provoke you, can't you still hide?

Xiao Shami, who had been waiting at the door, quickly took Hao Zhen'er and his party to the side, and after walking for a while, Hao Zhen'er found that they were probably walking towards the back mountain of Daming Temple.

Daming Temple is divided into a front yard for parking and pick-up of guests, then an atrium dedicated to many gods, a small courtyard of houses where guests can live, and a separate backyard with monks living in the back.

Behind this backyard is connected to the mountain behind, and there is a paddock fenced off for hunting, and there is also a field for growing vegetables to sustain the supply source of the temple.

Ten years have passed, and the general layout of Daming Temple has not changed much, but the small places have changed. In the past, it was not possible to go to the mountains through the backyard, and you had to go around the front yard, but now it may not be possible.

Xiao Shami took Hao Zhen'er and the others to a place that resembled a garden, and there was a large forest in front of them, and there was a pavilion near the pond and a rockery not far from the door, so they went to that pavilion. "This pavilion is pretty good." Hao Zhen'er stood up and looked around at the surrounding scenery, this place really didn't exist in the previous life.

After Xiao Tao glanced at Hao Zhen'er, she looked at Xiao Shami with a smile and said, "Little master, I don't know when this beautiful garden was built, and where is it connected in front?" β€œ

Xiao Shami replied shyly: "This garden was built five years ago, and this was originally a peach garden belonging to the back mountain, and then it was enclosed into this garden. ”

"Then will this garden have a lot of me?" Xiao Tao covered her mouth and smiled.

Xiao Shami's face was slightly red, and he folded his hands and said to Xiao Tao, "The peach trees in this garden are not fruitful. ”

Xiao Shami's embarrassed answer made everyone laugh along with Xiao Tao.

Hao Zhen'er looked at them and laughed, but she didn't stop them, and after looking at them for a while, she said, "Little master, you can leave first, let's sit down and go back." ”

Xiao Shami lowered his head and left the garden, anyway, he had already completed the task he ordered, but Xiao Shami still didn't understand a little, obviously the young lady of that family didn't look big, but why did she feel like a child in front of her?

The little novice couldn't figure it out after thinking about it all the way, and before finally leaving the garden, he looked back and saw only the little figure.

Hao Zhen'er sat quietly on the stone bench, and the servant behind him brought a tea set and food box, and put some food on the table at this moment.

Except for Xiao Tao who followed and served, the rest of the maids and grandmothers stood outside the pavilion and waited, Hao Zhen'er picked up the teacup and glanced at Xiao Tao, "You did a good job just now, go back and receive the reward." ”

Hao Zhen'er's words made Xiao Tao ecstatic, after all, this was the first word of appreciation she got after following her master, Xiao Tao sorted out her expression a little, looked at Hao Zhen'er and said, "This is what a slave should do." "Yes." Hao Zhen'er put the tea on the teacup, "I have clear rewards and punishments, now you are much better than before, in this case, then there is a task entrusted to you." "Master, please speak." Xiao Tao stood respectfully beside Hao Zhen'er, although she said that Miss was only ten years old, she did not treat Miss as an ordinary ten-year-old child.

She has followed Miss since she entered the house, and she has been by Miss's side after her accident, she is not a child of the house, but Miss has never treated her badly.

When the young lady woke up, her temperament changed greatly, and her calm thinking and way of speaking were no different from those of adults, but she had always kept this secret for the young lady, so even the lady never knew it, and the lady only knew that the young lady was silent. In fact, the young lady deliberately did not speak, so as not to arouse suspicion. "You have also seen that there is no trustworthy person around me except for you, and now you basically understand my temperament and requirements, so after I go back this time, I will ask my mother to ask a few people to come over, and you have been in this mansion for a long time, so this person needs you to help me choose." "The slave must do her best to do this for the young lady." "Yes." Hao Zhen'er's eyes fell on the peach forest again, and she remembered the joke that Xiao Tao made just now, "By the way, do you think the name Xiao Tao is okay?" If you are not satisfied, you can change it. "Back to Miss, the slaves and maids have used this name for many years, Miss Xie hurts." Xiao Tao's eyes looked at Hao Zhen'er with eyes, full of gratitude. "It's up to you to decide." Since they all said so, then she didn't have any opinions, she used to be very strict with the people around her, because at that time, she took a wrong step and would never recover.

Now she doesn't need those, so she doesn't have so many requirements for the people around her, as long as she is not stupid, loyalty is enough.

"Let's talk about this peach orchard, Xiao Shami's words just now shouldn't have been finished."

"Back to Miss, this."

"In the future, no outsider will directly answer that there is no need for so many rules." Hao Zhen'er directly interrupted Xiao Tao's words.

"It's Miss, I heard that the emperor built it for Daibi Niangniang five years ago in Taoyuan, and she is the mother of today's most favored princess Worry-free."

Hao Zhen'er nodded, it turned out that there was still this reason in it, thinking that this Daibi Niangniang was very favored, this Daming Temple is not a place where you can build construction casually.

Dai Bi Niangniang, the princess of Wuguo, wants to come to this favored Cheng DΓΉ is inseparable from the emperor's need to rely on Wuguo.

(There will be one change tomorrow, two changes the day after tomorrow, by the way, when the contract was negotiated, the editor-in-chief asked to change the title of the book, and it was still called the previous name "The Rebirth of the Queen Mother")
