Chapter 81: The Reincarnation of Di Gong
Jing Wan'er smelled a cold fragrance in this room, which was coming from Li Xiuqi's body, and it was similar to the fragrance in the Daxiong Treasure Hall. She looked at Li Xiuqi, it is rumored that the prince of Changle loves beauties, and there are often secrets of this prince in the palace, and this cold fragrance is also very similar to a woman's rouge.
The monks in the courtyard saw Pei Tan appear, "There are carrier pigeons raised in the temple, if Pei Siqing trusts them, they can be sent back to Chang'an by the pigeons of this temple." "The correspondence between Qinglong Temple and Daming Palace can be said to be not a lot.
Pei Tan said: "Just do it." ”
Jing Wan'er followed him back to the courtyard next door, and the new wing room was indeed complete with everything, and there was a paper, pen, and inkstone on the table.
I saw Pei Tan pick up the pen and slowly glanced at Jing Wan'er.
Jing Wan'er was still silent, and when she walked over and saw that the inkstone was clean, she lifted the ink and began to grind.
After a long time, Pei Tan dipped himself in ink and put pen to paper.
Jing Wan'er lowered her head, she should have thought that Huigen had an impression of the past, and Xuan Lian was old, so she couldn't imagine that her memory was so strong.
Pei Tan wrote a letter over there, sealed it with fire wax, and handed it to the monk who came to pick up the letter.
Jing Wan'er watched the monk walk out, and couldn't help but say, "Aren't you afraid that Qinglong Temple will intercept the letter?" ”
The thin layer of fire wax is afraid to prevent gentlemen and villains.
Pei Tan's attitude seemed to be calmer than Jing Wan'er, but he didn't know what he thought in his heart, "I didn't write anything in the letter, if this is the case, it will be intercepted, which means that there is a problem with Qinglong Temple." ”
I saw the carrier pigeon flying to Chang'an City from the southeast.
Jing Wan'er looked out the window, the monks in the courtyard looked kind, these were all monks, and the warrior monks who were fierce in the morning were obviously not the same group.
Her gaze crossed the courtyard, looked to the other side, and said with some humor: "Your Highness, aren't you leaving?" ”
Pei Tan is already a silent man, Li Xiuqi said that sentence directly to Pei Tan, and countered Pei Tan's army in this way.
Jing Wan'er pondered for a while and smiled faintly: "This highness said that he was in retreat for the first half of the month, but he saw it better than anyone else. So Li Xiuqi knew that Qinglong Temple doubted himself.
Pei Tan's eyes were pale and fell on the girl: "Never underestimate the people of the Li Tang royal family." ”
Jing Wan'er shook slightly, and turned her head to look at Pei Tan.
In fact, all kinds of signs show that Huigen's death has a lot to do with Li Xiuqi, but a dignified prince and grandson will have any grudges with a little monk.
Not to mention killing.
Jing Wan'er said after a while: "This time, if it weren't for the insistence of the adults, I'm afraid that Qinglong Temple and even the abbot Xuanlian would seem to have inadverted it." ”
A song "Preface to King Teng's Pavilion" is still popular.
Li Xiuqi is now just an idle prince, far away from the court and the royal family, Zhongzong retains his freedom to enter and leave the Daming Palace, and in the Tang Dynasty, Li Xiuqi's privileges are beyond the level of the prince.
Jing Wan'er remembered the tribute from Fanbang in the Daxiong Treasure Hall - Alocasia Flower.
Pei Tan suddenly said: "After meeting the prince, I don't think it's the prince." ”
Originally, Qinglong Temple's vague attitude, as well as the strangeness of this matter, etc., even made Pei Tan a little suspicious before, but until he saw Li Xiuqi himself, this feeling suddenly became wrong.
Jing Wan'er looked at Pei Tan, because there was some novelty, Pei Tan was not the kind of person who relied on intuition. He often said that the Dali Temple judged the case, paying attention to the real evidence, that is, only the real evidence will convince the Dali Temple.
Jing Wan'er's eyes rolled: "If the palace knows that the matter involves King Changle, will you let the adults check it?" ”
Even Jing Wan'er, the little palace maid, knew that she would definitely not.
At night, the Buddha number came from the courtyard, and there was more and more sorrow, and even the little monks who served outside the courtyard closed their eyes tightly, chanted words in their mouths, and twisted the Buddhist beads in their hands.
Pei Tan was a person who was prone to sleep and was prone to sleep, he immediately opened his eyes and saw the figure of Pei Guard's guard guarding the door, and the slender shadow was silent
A sense of solemnity.
"What's going on out there?"
Pei Tan watched, Pei Guard heard the order, gently opened the door, and stood at the door facing Pei Tan.
"Childe, it should be a kind of chanting ceremony."
Of course, this low and sad voice is the sound of chanting, and what can cause such a grand momentum must be that all the monks in the entire Qinglong Temple have begun to chant.
Of course, it is rare for monks to chant sutras in the middle of the night, and their sad tone also makes people feel a sudden desolation in their hearts.
Pei Tan looked at a monk at the door, and spoke for a long time: "It's overdue." ”
These scriptures are nothing else, they are the mantras of the Buddha's rebirth, and a monk at the door noticed the movement, looked at Pei Tan with a sad face and said: "The abbot personally presided over the transcendent ceremony to send Senior Brother Huigen into the next life reincarnation. ”
After death, if a person does not transcend the sainthood, he becomes a wandering spirit of the dead.
Poor families have no money to overpay, and their families will recite a few verses of scripture on the grave with tears in their eyes.
But Qinglong Temple is a monk who cultivates, bathes and fasts every day, listens to the Sanskrit sound of the Buddha, and is still worried that he will not be able to enter reincarnation.
Just look at the figure of the girl flashing at the door, she seems to have already stood in the courtyard, watching this grand chanting.
"What are you going to do with Huigen's corpse after the transcendence is over?" Jing Wan'er slowly looked at the monk who had just spoken.
The monk said: "Naturally, it is safe to enter the earth." ”
Jing Wan'er said: "But the cause of Huigen's death is not known yet, let alone an autopsy. ”
These words made the monk Mu Ran's eyes widen, and the air that was colder than the courtyard made Pei Tan's body in his middle clothes cold.
I saw that the monk stopped chanting the scriptures, and his eyes glared at Jing Wan'er angrily.
"Hurriedly buried before the autopsy, do you want to have a grand super-grand ceremony, and you can't let your senior brother live in peace, right?" Some of the sneering voices came from the girl's mouth.
The monks who were chanting scriptures in the courtyard all stopped their voices. They looked at Jing Wan'er.
Pei Tan also immediately lifted the futon and walked down from the bed. When he came to the door, he saw that Jing Wan'er was also dressed in a hurry
The outer coat is so thin and stands in the cold wind.
He stared at the monks in the courtyard, and the silent eyes of these monks also reflected the figures of the two people.
Pei Tan finally looked at the monk beside him: "I have seen Abbot Xuanlian during the day, and he did not say that he wanted to be buried so quickly. ”
The monk's face was covered with a layer of cold night frost: "After the ceremony, it must be buried at an auspicious time, and the donor's words are not to make my senior brother's soul uneasy?" ”
Pei Tan looked at the monk: "Since the cause of death is unknown, how to bury it?" There seemed to be a chill on his face.
In the attic during the day, before they had time to check the clues on Huigen's body, they were taken to see Xuanlian.
When they came back, the body in the attic had been carried away, not to mention that it was a professional autopsy, even Pei Tan himself had only seen the corpse hastily.
The monk's face moved: "These, the donor should go and ask the master." ”
In the middle of the night, how did you pass through this group of monks to ask Master Xuanlian.
Pei Tan said: "Let's go into the house first." ”
Although Jing Wan'er was cold at the moment, she still didn't want to leave.
Pei Tan gestured to the two of his own people outside the door, and among a bunch of monks in plain clothes, they looked so abrupt.
Jing Wan'er hesitated, turned around and her door was still open, but she saw Pei Tan and said, "You come in first." ”
She walked into Pei Tan's room.
There is a charcoal fire burning in the house, and it is naturally warm.
"Your Excellency?" Jing Wan'er asked.
Pei Tan was still dragging his shoes at the moment, because of this interruption, it took a long time for the chanting to sound outside the door. Only then did he slowly say, "No matter what, they should be allowed to finish this sutra tonight." "This is the least respect for the deceased, even if it is Dali Temple, there is no need to investigate the case tonight.
Jing Wan'er was speechless for a while, looking at tonight's battle, Qinglong Temple's attitude towards Huigen was not fake, they were really sad for Huigen's death. Then it should not stop Dali Temple from investigating the case.
Pei Tan said slowly: "The Buddhists attach great importance to the whole corpse after death, and may not agree to conduct an autopsy on Huigen. ”
Not only Buddhists, but also the common people also value the integrity of the corpse, even if they die, they must also be buried completely, looking forward to the consummation of the next life. Otherwise, there would be no so-called torture of splitting the corpses of five horses.
Jing Wan'er said after a moment: "Unless even Xuanlian doesn't want to know how her favorite apprentice died." ”
Entering the temple to practice is to isolate the world, and there is no worldly father and mother, but the temple abbot is their master.
Will there be parents who don't want to know the murderer who killed their children?
After the silence, Pei Tan said: "I believe that what Master Xuanlian has promised will not be untrustworthy. ”
Xuan Lian acquiesced to Pei Tan's investigation, if she didn't let the cause of Huigen's death be checked, it would be in vain, and no judge could decide the case without knowing the cause of death.
Di Gong can't live again.
