Chapter 29: Disillusionment

Wu Huan, speaking of Mo Xuan plainly, Emperor Xuan went back with our country's navy, and he helped the navy win the battle and brought back a lot of jewels. After returning to the people, he made good connections with the people, was kind and charitable, won the hearts of the people, and the ministers in the court were also very convinced and supported him, and three years later he became the regent of the Confucian Kingdom. A few years later, the emperor died of illness. He was supported by the ministers and the people to become the emperor, he was the greatest emperor of the Confucian country, and changed the name of the country to Liangguo. The creation of "Yongcheng Shengshi" abolished the harsh etiquette laws that had been imposed on women, so that women could regain their freedom to read and learn calligraphy. He has worked hard all his life and dedicated himself to the Confucian country. After his death, he also passed the throne to his nephew. It wasn't until he washed and wore the golden jade clothes after his death that everyone knew that his legs were like this. After that, the tradition of not being able to be an emperor with incomplete body hair and skin was abolished.

Mo Xuan obviously had pain and inconvenience, but he had to disguise himself when there were people, so that no one could see him. I don't know how he endured in the country of Confucianism?

My tears fell on the prosthetic leg, I always thought that he was just a noble young master, but I didn't know that he was actually the crown prince of the Confucian Kingdom, if I knew that he would never come back, I would be better for him. Go down. Sitting in the Liuli Palace, thinking about Mo Xuan in the past, he always sat in front of a few cases on the other side of the window to watch the twists and turns. Every time I was lazy to look at him.

He always looked at the fold and said without looking up, princess, don't look at me.

At that time, I always wondered why he could sit there so intently all day, from morning till night, until the moon was on the branches in the evening, and then went back to sleep.

I'm half gray now. In my heart, he is still the hard-working, proud, and noble nobleman.

It was my first year as empress

Mo Xuan saw the news on the fold at the beginning. The mainland is coming to attack the Moon Country, and Qianfeng is helpless when he learns the news. At this time, Mo Xuan took the fold and found Qianfeng. On the Thousand Winds Mansion, he sat face to face in front of the low table where Thousand Winds sat on the couch.

Qianfeng poured tea for Mo Xuan and said, if the empress knew that her imperial manager did not tidy up the folds and ran to my house to drink tea, she would ask me for my sin.

Mo Xuan took out the fold from his arms and handed it to Qianfeng and was startled. The naval army of the Junru Kingdom has been marching on us, probably for months. Qianfeng was shocked, how good is this the first general to go north to the northern cold land.

Mo Xuan took a sip of tea, stood up, walked to the window, looked out the window and said, I am the prince of Junru Kingdom, and when I led the troops to attack the Moon Kingdom six years ago, I was injured by my younger brother. At that time, I fell into the sea and then the Junru Kingdom was defeated and withdrew, but I couldn't go out to the sea from places like Yakou in the west, but I just wanted to return to China at that time. Then I thought about going to the sea from the east to make a detour to Junru, but as soon as I arrived at Lei Cheng in the east, a large number of plagues occurred in Lei Cheng, and I was also sent to the sea burial cliff by others as a dying person. Until I thought I was going to die in a foreign land, but it was the princess who saved me and she made me reborn, and I thought it was time for me to repay the favor. I will now go back to the Confucian Kingdom and put an end to this pointless war.

Qian Feng was silent for a long time before he spoke, You have been out for so many years, and you don't know the situation on the mainland now. Rushing back not only can't help Yueguo. Maybe, I'll put my own life into it.

Mo Xuan said, don't worry, I have two things, the first is a prescription for the treatment of epidemics. The second is a boatload of precious stones and gold, with which I will at least not die. And I, the person, leave the comfort nest. In the past few years of drifting outside, I have learned a lot of things. I'm going to be fine, don't worry.

Qianfeng is still not at ease, but the Jun Confucian Kingdom has sent a naval army, how can it be possible to go back without fighting?

Mo Xuan said that with that boatload of gold, silver and jewelry, it was impossible for them not to return, of course, they still needed to find more people at the border to bluff and scare them. Under coercion and temptation, I am not afraid that those soldiers will not give in.

Good. Qianfeng bowed his hand, I am here to represent the whole country of the moon, thank you, Mo Xuan. No, it's the crown prince of the Confucian Kingdom. Is there anything else you need me to help with, Mo Xuan said.

Mo Xuan helped up Qianfeng who bowed and saluted, I am used to others calling me Mo Xuan, I should thank the empress, and the grace of saving my life should be reciprocated. I don't need your help anymore, I just hope you don't tell the empress. My identity, don't say anything about everything now. I know that it is impossible for me to be here after I return to the palace, and it is impossible for me to come back.

Qianfeng said, why don't you let the empress know, she has the right to know.

Mo Xuan picked up the tea on the table, took a sip and said lightly, the most bitter thing in this world is lovesickness. The most painful thing in this world is to love and not be able to, I know that the empress doesn't love me. The pain is self-inflicted, but the bitter wine of acacia is enough for me to taste alone.

Qianfeng said, who is not tasting this cup of bitter wine. Okay, I promise you. I'm not going to tell her about today.

The next day, I sat in a small boat with the monk without flowers, and he paddled and I sat across from him in simple clothes. In the Lethe River in the palace, the weather is hazy and I don't know when it will rain. Why did you come to this Lethe Lake?

The flowerless said lightly, I have a relationship with the female benefactor, and it was the Buddha who guided me here.

Then why did your Buddha guide you?

Perhaps, it is to solve the doubts of the female benefactor and get the female benefactor out of the sea of suffering.

Then you can tell me about it.

The Buddha said that there are eight sufferings in life, and there are eight sufferings in life, namely: birth suffering, old suffering, sickness, death, love and parting suffering, resentment will be suffering, asking for no suffering, and the five yin are blazing suffering. "The five yin are the five aggregates, and the five yin gather into a body, like a blazing fire, from which the first seven sufferings are born.

The sixth suffering is called "love parting". Love parting is a kind of persistent suffering. Life is originally less together and more separated, if you can see through this, the pain of love and separation will not exist; But if you really want to be so "empty", you can't do it unless you have great wisdom. Therefore, the Buddha also said that the suffering above the seven sufferings is the suffering of not knowing the Dharma, which is called "suffering". The Buddha advocates detachment from suffering and happiness, and mortals just don't want to be so tasteless, knowing that it is in the end

Bitterness, but also happiness first; The warmth of family love, the fiery love of lovers, and the purity of friend love are really reluctant, even if there is a parting in the end, how many people can resist the joy of immersion?

When the flowers fall and the clouds disperse, the winter thunder shakes the summer rain and snow, I am shocked to realize that yesterday's life is today's dream, and the love is finally fluttering away like the sand in my hand.

Before I knew it, I had reached the shore, and I got off the boat with Wuhua, and I saw Siming coming from afar. He wore a white robe, and his hair was combed in half and tied with a crown of jade. Meet the Empress.

Siming, you're just in time, let me introduce you. Looking at Wuhuan on the side, this is Master Wuhuan.

Monk Ping, I have seen the donor.

Siming said, I hate people who pretend to be ghosts the most. I don't look at Wuhuan and be a little arrogant.

Wuhuan felt bored and said, the monk took his leave, the female benefactor.

I said, "Master walks slowly."

Seeing Wuhuan walking away. I said to Siming, what's wrong with you, is there something wrong?

Auntie, I'm fine, I just think that those people who are full of detached and noble mouths are just the most failed people in reality, and they are unwilling to face failure. only to find a reason for himself to say that he is noble and detached and doesn't care about success, but he is in love with Hongchen.

I put my hands together and faced the sky, Siming, don't you say that Master Wuhuan, he is a person with a high level of Buddhist cultivation?

Auntie, I hope you can always be the same as before, and don't change. I hope we can always be the same as before, Auntie, I'll go back and watch the music first.

I looked at the distant back, and I thought he had grown up.

See Empress.

When I turned around, it was a thousand winds. Why don't you make a sound?

Qianfeng said, what are you looking at, empress?

Looking at Siming's direction, he has been walking for a while, Qianfeng must not have seen it, turned his head to Qianfeng and said, Look at the sky, it may be raining.

Qianfeng said that the minister came to discuss with the empress that the minister wanted to resign and live in seclusion in the mountains and forests, and Siming was also older, so it was time to return the child to a clean world.

I said, if it wasn't because of the rumors outside, I should have imprisoned the miracle doctor at that time.

Qianfeng smiled, Empress, I don't care anymore, you don't have to be angry.

I also smile, Qianfeng, tomorrow I will pass the throne to Siming. Let's go together, and leave it to him in the country of the moon.

Qianfeng said, why did you suddenly make this decision, but it's okay for you to go with us, Qianxue has always been very nostalgic for the days when we were on the boat together.

I saw the sun's light reflected in the irregular gaps in the dark clouds in the sky, and slowly the sunlight became bigger and bigger, and I couldn't let go of everything I had past.

Qianfeng said, okay, I'll go and prepare.

Siming, aunt, I heard that you want to pass the throne to me?

Yes, you have grown up and can govern the Moon Country well. Did the monk tell you to do this?

No, I had planned to do that for a long time.

Auntie, I don't want to change, I want to always be like this, I hope my aunt doesn't change either.

I touched Siming's face, the only constant thing in this world is change. You've grown up. I will leave slowly, people are going to return to heaven and earth, no one can accompany anyone for a lifetime, my aunt is old, she retracts her hand and touches the wrinkles at the corners of her eyes, I can't always accompany you sooner or later one day will walk in front of you.

No, my aunt is still young, why should she think about it for so long.

Siming, forget it.

A few days later, in the Taiji Palace, I passed the imperial throne to Siming, and saw him sitting on top of the Taiji Hall in a yellow robe. I think he's my best work. Qianfeng also took off his official uniform and distributed the power to the six divisions, and everything was handed over to Siming.
