Cui Jishu under the wall climbed up with his support for the wall, and he definitely couldn't get up. I was so anxious that I jumped high, and I went around and around, looking for something to borrow.

"Don't look for it, there's nothing, someone will naturally come looking for you later." The old man seemed to be smug and laughed at Cui Jishu under the wall. Then he smiled and looked at Gao Cheng with a serious face, "Who are you?" "It's just that the seriousness seems to be pretended, and the face is deliberately stretched to make people feel funny and cute.

"You don't know who I am, so you dare to meddle with my son's affairs?" Gao Cheng said angrily.

"Thou art very beautiful, and I like it. Lovers are different, and each of them has a reason to like them. The old man was still smiling.

Gao Cheng was a little surprised, he looked at the old man intently, as if he was thinking something.

"Don't think about it, I know you're very smart. I'm the Tianzhu monk Bodhidharma," he pointed downwards to the inside of Tongtai Temple, "the one they said." Saying that, he pulled Gao Cheng and jumped off the wall, and he had already entered the Tongtai Temple.

"Shizi!" I only heard Cui Jishu shouting outside the wall.

Bodhidharma didn't seem to hear Cui Jishu shouting.

"He'......," Gao Cheng pointed outside.

"He has his own place, and you have your own place." Dharma pulled Gao Cheng and left.

"Where?" Gao Cheng asked as he was dragged away.

"Didn't you come to see the Emperor of Liang?" Bodhidharma paused and asked.

"yes, what about you?" Gao Cheng looked at him.

"Me too." Damora turned around and walked away, whispering in Gao Cheng's ear.

"Why do you have to be like this? Xiao Yan has been waiting for you here for a long time. Gao Cheng asked puzzled.

Unexpectedly, Bodhidharma shook his head with a smile and only said two words, "It's fun." ”

"Play?" Gao Cheng was surprised again.

"Without you, without me, without anything, without the world, in the illusion, everything is like fun." Bodhidharma replied with a smile, and at the same time led Gao Cheng forward. "Why take it seriously, why take it seriously...... There is me now, and there is no me after that......" Gao Cheng was even more confused and confused.

Cui Jishu outside the temple was in a hurry when he suddenly heard the hooves of horses.

A man in black dismounted in the dark and walked towards Cui Jishu without hurrying, he looked around and asked, "What about the prince?" ”

Cui Jishu exclaimed, "General Changyou? What are you doing here? ”

Gao Cheng relied on his memory to find the thatched hall by the lotus pond last time. Dodging behind the pillar and looking inside, the door of the temple is still wide open, and the bright veil is hung at the door of the temple. The wind blew the gauze tent, and he clearly saw the emperor Xiao Yan who was meditating in the hall, and he didn't change his residence. Gao Cheng looked back at Bodhidharma, who was standing at the door of the temple without dodging.

"Get in, get in. If you have this moment, why not go? Bodhidharma was still smiling, and he stepped into the thatched hall, and laughed loudly, "The old monk and the layman should have had this meeting. ”

Gao Cheng also followed Bodhidharma into the hall, only to see that Bodhidharma's right hand seemed to be lightly drawn in the air, then holding a lotus flower, and said with a smile, "The layman is pious to the Buddha, but it is pitiful, and the Buddha treasure lotus flower is to comfort the heart of the layman to the Buddha." As he spoke, he gently popped out the lotus flower in his hand, and it fell into the arms of Emperor Xiao Yan of Liang.

Xiao Yan opened his eyes, looked at Dharma, and then looked at Gao Cheng, his face was cold, he was playing with lotus flowers in his hands, only focusing on Gao Cheng and going back and forth, and said lightly, "You are from the Northern Dynasty, why did you enter the Southern Dynasty?" The north and the south have never been in harmony with each other, I have never intended to be in the north, and I don't know what the northerners mean by the south? Could it be that if you couldn't assassinate last time, you have to kill Xiao Ming? He had no fear in his words, and he was obviously not afraid that Gao Cheng might really kill him, maybe Xiao Yan never really thought that Gao Cheng had ever plotted to assassinate him. It's just that after meeting him, he already knew that it was Gao Cheng who came last time.

It was the first time that Gao Cheng had been so close to the emperor of the Southern Dynasty and looked at each other so closely. I have long heard that Emperor Xiao Yan of Liang has been on the throne for decades, not only good poetry and rhythm, good at calligraphy and painting, but also strange that he is a brave general, and he governs the enemy like the ultimate realm. Gao Cheng took a few steps forward from behind Damour, standing in front of Xiao Yan, looking straight ahead, with a trace of disdain that could not be hidden in his eyes, "Old man, what's the use of killing you?" Liang is not because you are not there. Gao Cheng doesn't explain himself. It's just that he spoke amazingly, and he didn't think that Emperor Xiao Yan of Liang was in the country, and the country would not exist if the emperor did not exist.

This is something that Xiao Yan can't understand and can't accept.

"It's a pity, it......'s a pity," Bodhidharma listened quietly and smiled at Gao Cheng.

Xiao Yan didn't know this old monk. Gao Cheng's words didn't seem to anger him, he was still expressionless, and only asked, "The old monk is pitiful for a while, and pity for a while, is he talking about someone else or himself?" What is there to pity and what is to be sorry for? ”

"It's hard work and effort, it's all empty in the end, and it's empty and empty, it's better to have nothing to do in the forest, isn't it a pity?" Bodhidharma smiled.

"The kid is quite angry, and it is time to cultivate virtue and purify the heart and worship the Buddha, and this Buddha treasure will be given to you." Xiao Yan didn't pay attention to Damour's words, but just flicked the lotus flower in his hand towards Gao Cheng.

Gao Cheng had no intention of picking it up, but the lotus flower was falling into Gao Cheng's hands. Gao Cheng was stunned, held the lotus and watched, and said indifferently for a while, "Very good, my Great Wei has always been devout to the Buddha, and I have carved many cave temples to support the Buddha in Wuzhou Sacred Mountain." It is a pure place on the mountain of Shaomuro, and a temple can be built in the dense forest for this Buddha treasure. Don't pray for the past life and the next life, don't seek longevity and Kangning, only cultivate purity and inaction. Gao Cheng was a little confused when he spoke, and his words were not like his usual tone, but he suddenly felt that the world seemed to be boring.

"I am when I come today, and who am I tomorrow? I am not my true self at this time, and who is who I know at that time? Bodhidharma smiled and turned to go out.

"I have no intention of committing a crime in the north, and the northerners don't have to visit me." Xiao Yan said lightly, "I only hope that the people of Liang Kingdom will be dedicated to the Buddha and will not cause disasters." After that, Xiao Yan closed his eyes and sat in meditation again, as if he no longer paid attention to Gao Cheng.

Gao Cheng came out with a lotus in his hand, but there was no trace of Bodhidharma.

The Buddha lamps are shining everywhere in Tongtai Temple. There were few guards and soldiers, and the novices had their own business. Chen Yuankang and Cui Jishu quietly walked by. Cui Jishu seems to be still trapped in what Chen Yuankang said just now and is preoccupied. Finally, he couldn't help but ask again, "General Changyou, is the black-clothed man who followed the prince and plotted to assassinate the prince really sent by Hou Jing?" Chen Yuankang didn't speak, but only secretly watched the various halls, looking for Gao Cheng.

Cui Jishu finally came to his senses, but gritted his teeth and said angrily, "Hou Jingxian sent someone to kill the prince, and then half-truths and half-truths to save the son, it is really treacherous, I must report to the prime minister." ”

"Uncle Zheng, don't say much." Chen Yuankang had to stop to reassure him. He even regretted telling Cui Jishu about Hou Jing's secret actions, he originally expected him to serve Gao Cheng every day, just thinking that he was vigilant, but he didn't expect him to be so uncontrollable. I had to concentrate on persuading again, "The prime minister has to rely on Hou Jing, the temper of the prince knows that there will be a big event immediately, you and I should not make trouble for the time being, just pay more attention." ”

Under the Medicine Pagoda, when the wind passes by at night, you can hear the crisp and slightly sad bell of the pagoda. Yuwentai stood under the pagoda and looked up at the towering pagoda. As if something was touching his wound, he unconsciously raised his hand and stroked his shoulder blade. In the dark, he lost the indifferent smile that he always had, and he also lost the ambition he had when he followed General Taigaba in the Kansai Daixing. For a split second he seemed to lose himself. Or maybe he really doesn't understand, what is he sneaking into Jiankang for?

"General Yuwen will also have children and soft intestines?" Hou Jing slowly paced to his side, and also looked at the Medicine Master Pagoda and said lightly.

"Is the public coming to Jiankang just to find the son?" Yu Wentai secretly sorted out his thoughts, calmed down and asked.

"Of course it's different from General Yuwen. I have a wife and children, and I don't admire the style of Confucianism, and I have no interest in Jiangnan women. He seemed to be teasing. There was a moment of silence and said, "My wife is in danger for my safety, and I will not live up to it." ”

Yuwentai didn't expect Hou Jing to have such a relationship, so he couldn't help but turn his head to look at him. He just said very gently, "Puyang Gong is also so entangled in this way? ”

Hearing his voice as cold as iron, Hou Jing suddenly felt a chill in his heart, and couldn't help but stare at Yu Wentai. This person, he seems to have never known, known. How is he the Yuwentai he knows? So strange and so unfathomable. That kind of incomprehensibility is not even as good as the great prime minister Gao Huan. Hou Jing's heart was full of thoughts for a moment, and he didn't say a word.

In the pagoda, the candles are flickering, full of warm light. When Xiao Qiongju, who closed his eyes and recited, closed the scroll, he caught a glimpse of Yang Shunhua sitting in front of the window, stroking his cheek with one hand, and contemplating against the window. And the window was closed, and I didn't know what she was thinking. Usually quiet and silent, but never so preoccupied.

Xiao Qiongju stood up and walked to Yang Shunhua's side, reached out and gently stroked her shoulder, and smiled mischievously, "What is Sister thinking?" ”

When Yang Shunhua looked back, Xiao Qiongju only felt that her eyes were big and bright, dreamlike, and beautiful. Her face was suddenly covered with red clouds, as if her heart was well known. In fact, she didn't hear what the princess was saying at all, but she was still immersed in her interrupted dream.

"Is the princess tired of chanting?" Yang Shunhua adjusted himself without words.

"I'm tired and want to rest for a while. Does my sister want to rest? Xiao Qiongju is no longer joking.

"I ...... I went out for a walk. "Whether she wants to or not, Yang Shunhua just wants to wake up from her dream as soon as possible.

Xiao Qiongju watched her stand up and slowly walked to the door, Yang Shunhua suddenly stopped and turned around, looked at Xiao Qiongju and said, "I am willing to serve the princess for the rest of my life and will not leave." ”

Xiao Qiongju's heart was hot, and she only nodded, unable to speak.
