Qin Lei nodded, didn't say anything, and followed the little eunuch into the carriage, and after entering the imperial city, he did not continue to enter the palace north, but turned left into the East Palace of Emperor Tianyou. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 ｉｎｆｏ

The carriage stopped at the back door, and the little eunuch pushed the door and invited the prince to enter. Qin Lei looked at it, good guy, full of ruins and broken walls, a black and burning yard, overgrown with wild grasses and wild flowers, like a legendary haunted place.

I couldn't help but gasp and said, "You didn't go the wrong way, right?" ”

The little eunuch didn't know how to answer, and stood there helpless.

"Lord Wang, this is the Scholarly Pavilion." Shi Dang reminded softly.

Qin Lei couldn't help but be stunned, pointing to the dilapidated barren eyes and said, "How did it become like this?" ”

The little eunuch came back to his senses and replied in a low voice: "A few years ago, I was burned by Lord Taiwei. ”

Qin Lei stopped asking questions in a knowing interest.

The little eunuch led Qin Lei out of the courtyard of the Scholarly Pavilion, went to the outside of the study of the Prince's Mansion, and said respectfully: "Your Majesty said that the prince only needs to go in when he comes, and there is no need to report." And he stepped aside.

Qin Lei entered the study, but he didn't see a figure, only heard the sound of gurgling water behind the high bookshelf, he couldn't help but slow down his breathing, slowly walked to the bookshelf, turned around a screen, and saw his second brother wearing a light blue civilian clothes, sitting leisurely at a small wooden table, on the table is still the set of small and delicate, with a variety of utensils.

The small copper kettle on the table had begun to steam. Through this ever-changing white mist, Qin Lei suddenly had a sense of déjà vu, he remembered that they had done the same thing in the same place and in the same place about five years ago.

Five years later, everything seems to repeat itself, and it seems that everything has not changed, but the identities and moods of the two have become very different.

The person who invited him to drink tea had been promoted from the unpopular prince to the king of a country, and even today, his long-standing confidant was completely finished, and I think this young majesty should breathe a sigh of relief.

The guests who came to drink tea have also completed the transformation from a trembling empty prince to a double prince and generalissimo king, which can be described as the first real power faction in Daqin.

In the eyes of ordinary people, these two young people should be proud, smile at each other, and then pretend to say: "It's not over yet, we still need to work hard." ”

But there was no trace of joy on the faces of the two, but they both saw sorrow in each other's eyes...... Victory belongs to the imperial grandmother, and glory belongs to her alone, so what do we have to be happy about?

The only thing that belongs to us is the series of problems she left behind.

"Let's do it." Seeing Qin Lei standing by the screen in a daze, Emperor Tianyou smiled gently.

Qin Lei nodded and sat on the chair opposite the second brother. Then the water boiled, Qin Lei pushed the tea set over, and Emperor Tianyou opened the empty teapot and poured boiling water into the warm kettle. Then pour the water from the teapot into a shallow dish of purple sand...... Everything is as tacit as it was at the beginning, and it has not been rusty because of these years.

The emperor took out a white porcelain tea pot from under the small machine. The prince took off the bamboo cover, sniffed it lightly, handed it to Qin Lei and said, "Look what kind of tea this is." ”

"The high-grade silver needle Baihao 'Lao Jun Mei' in Wuyi Mountain, Fujian." Qin Lei smiled and said, "Everything is the same, and so is the tea." ”

Emperor Tianyou shook his head and smiled: "Not really, at least the bamboo tube has been replaced with a porcelain jar." ”

"It seems that the imperial brother has figured it out." Qin Lei chuckled.

"I'm stupid, you can figure it out in a blink of an eye, but I have to think about it for three or five years." Emperor Tianyou looked at Qin Lei and said with a smile: "Why didn't you tell me at the beginning?" ”

"Drinking tea is the way." Qin Lei Zhengse said: "Since it is the Tao, there is no real right or wrong, how to come in your heart, how to come, everything you want is the Tao." ”

"Sounds reasonable." Qin Ting shook his head and smiled: "It's just that it doesn't have any effect, I'd better slowly realize." So he used a small copper spoon to scoop a spoonful of tea leaves into the teapot, but it was still only a spoonful.

Seeing the corners of Qin Lei's mouth twitch, Qin Ting couldn't help but say slightly proudly: "Since you said it's good to do whatever you want, then I still like to be more elegant." Apparently he has already researched that making gongfu tea with mellow tea leaves will have a better effect.

Qin Lei smiled bitterly and said, "It's not the first time I've done it to lift a stone and hit my own feet." ”

Qin Ting smiled, added three or five spoons of tea to the pot, and said with a smile: "Knowing that it is inappropriate and doing it intentionally is not the way of hospitality. As he spoke, he washed the dishes without a trace of fireworks, poured tea and water. The movements are more dusty and focused than they were back then.

Qin Lei couldn't help but be secretly strange, stretched out the middle finger and index finger of his two hands, took the teacup, but it hung in the air, did not send it to his mouth, but asked, "Brother Huang, can you ask a question?" ”

The prince also picked up a cup, put it to his mouth, closed his eyes slightly, shook his head lightly to taste a tranquility, took a sip for a long time, and said lightly: "Your heart is still very chaotic, but my heart has returned to peace." ”

Qin Lei pursed his lips and held back the question stiffly, he already knew how the second brother would answer him.

The two sat opposite each other without saying a word, and Qin Ting drank a cup of artistic conception; Qin Lei increased the burden on his bladder one by one.

After drinking a pot of tea, Qin Ting put down the teacup, looked at Qin Lei fixedly, and said: "You once said: 'The Tao is Tao, the Tao is very Tao, and the red dust is easy to investigate and difficult to understand. The name is famous, very famous, and the Tao is ruthless but affectionate. This sentence has been bothering me for many years, and after many ups and downs and many tribulations, I can really understand the meaning of this sentence. ”

"What do you mean? Let's talk about it," Qin Lei said in surprise: "I don't even know it myself. ”

"You originally knew," Qin Ting said in a flat tone: "It's just that over the years, the officials have been getting bigger and bigger, and there are more and more things, and I don't have the heart to think about these anymore." ”

"Indeed." Qin Lei had to nod and said: "I feel that I have been kidnapped, there are always all kinds of people looking for me for twelve hours a day, all kinds of things to do, I just want to deal with these things every day, at most I think about how to do it in the future, I don't have time to look back and see if I have gone astray." ”

said with a self-deprecating smile: "It's useless to watch it, because I've been kidnapped, and it's not up to me to decide which direction to go." ”

"I've said so, and you're still eye-catching to me." Emperor Tianyou looked at Qin Lei with a smile on his face, and suddenly smiled: "You don't have to explain at all, because I didn't want to be this emperor in the first place." ”

It was like someone had his pants ripped off in public, Qin Lei's face suddenly turned red, but he couldn't say a word.

Qin Ting smiled slightly, poured Qin Lei a cup of tea and said, "You also said that Hongchen is easy to understand. In fact, it is really simple for people to see through the red dust. Saying that, he sighed lightly and said, "But if you want to achieve the Great Dao, it is too difficult." ”

"Why do you want to be enlightened?" Qin Lei asked softly, "What thing is actually quite empty." ”

"Why is it your reason to be horizontal and vertical?" Emperor Tianyou couldn't help but laugh dumbly: "It turns out that you don't believe anything. ”

"I actually believe in the Tao." Qin Lei shook his head and said, "But the way of heaven is too slim, and it is not something that we ordinary people can verify." ”

"It's not an ethereal thing," Emperor Tianyou shook his head and said: "It does exist, if you can obtain the Tao, you will be able to understand all the mysteries in this world, see through all the disguises, know all the knowledge, and everything in the world can be mastered!" He also added: "Those who have reached this realm regard all things as nothing, carefree, joyful and sorrowful, and the feeling of joy is always in their hearts." ”

"Isn't that a fool?" Qin Lei smiled bitterly: "When you encounter something happy, you have to be happy, and when you encounter something unhappy, you have to be sad, this is a normal person." ”

"You're just going to be abnormal." Qin Li shook his head slowly, and said an earth-shattering sentence: "I have decided to give up the throne to you at the right time, and then concentrate on seeking the Tao." ”

This is really difficult to answer, because Qin Lei's covetous heart for the artifact is already like lice on a bald man's head, which is obvious, so it is not easy for him to be too clear, that would be too hypocritical. had no choice but to say: "How can you abandon the throne that others dream of?" ”

"The husband is not guilty, but he is guilty." Qin Ting said lightly: "I hope to live some ordinary days, and I don't want to be someone else's target anymore." Qin Lei was embarrassed again.

"I'm not talking about you." Sensing Qin Lei's discomfort, Qin Ting explained: "It's just because Li Hun has feelings about this." ”

"I know." Qin Lei smiled and said, "Second brother never touches the cheapness of his mouth. ”

Qin Ting smiled faintly: "But before this, I want to complete a big thing, so that I can go down in history." ”

Qin Lei knew what he was talking about, and said sincerely: "This thing is not easy to do, you will be hated to death." ”

"It doesn't matter," Qin Ting smiled casually: "Since I can't make people love me, it's not bad to make people hate." ”

"Why bother?" Knowing that he had made up his mind, Qin Lei was silent for a moment, and finally couldn't help but say, "You have received it on behalf of others." ”

"As long as you don't live up to me." Qin Ting smiled faintly: "Those who know me say that I am worried, and those who don't know what I want." Brother, since you understand what I want, don't say more. Saying that, he clapped his hands and stood up and said, "Just let me do a big job!" ”

Qin Lei got up with a solemn face and said, "How can you make me embarrassed?" ”

"It's okay," patted him on the arm, "and when I can't stand it anymore, you go on top." ”

Looking at his brother deeply, Qin Lei realized that he had never understood him, nodded silently, and turned to leave.

Qin Ting watched Qin Lei leave with a smile until he disappeared from sight, and then lightly packed up the tea set......

Everything is the same as it was five years ago.
