During the Spring Festival, the palace is going to be celebrated, so the great monk as the abbot of the national temple is also getting more and more busy, in the past ten days, he needs to participate in many large and small royal entertainments every day, I can't remember the last time I saw the big monk.

And no matter how greedy I am, on the day of the Spring Festival, I will inevitably enter the palace with the great monk, but I have long lost the freshness of the beginning, and I am only quite lazy.

On this day, I roughly cleaned up, anyway, there was no intention of overpowering the crowd, and it was rude to dress up.

Looking at the surrounding scene, my heart can't help but feel heavy, and I can't turn a blind eye to the extremely noble arrangement everywhere, hide among the people and salute and sit, and the head that can't function seems to be all the actions of my own active consciousness, but are pulled by something invisible, but there is no chaos.

Tonight is no better than the last birthday banquet, almost all the ministers above the fourth grade and their wives and relatives are present, very lively, I am just the most inconspicuous of them, so it's okay, eat quietly, take care of yourself in a daze, no one will bother me.

Isn't there a saying that is often on the lips of the saying "The only way to solve worries is Du Kang"?

I picked up the wine jug and filled the wine glass, before I could get into my throat, I found that the second prince was staring at me, regardless of my eldest sister beside me, I endured the scorching gaze cast by the second prince, and endured the harsh gaze cast by my eldest sister, one like a raging flame, one like nine-foot ice, but whether it was a flame or ice, I really couldn't bear it, since I raised my eyes and stared at the second prince fiercely, I couldn't see how vicious my gaze was, I only knew that the second prince finally looked away timidly, and the eldest sister looked at him anymore, He also looked away.

I was finally able to take a sip of wine in peace, but after a while, I accidentally saw the third master looking at me thoughtfully, I wanted to think that I didn't see it, but the fact is that if I see it, I see it, and there is no way to treat it as if I didn't see it, and the result of forcibly acting as not seeing it like me is that I feel uncomfortable, drinking and drinking are not happy, and eating and eating are not comfortable.

Of course, I couldn't understand what he was thinking, and I didn't want to waste it, but I turned my head to meet his eyes, filled myself with wine, and shook my glass at him with a chuckle, and he softened his expression, and pulled out a smile, and took the cup and drank with me.

I put down the wine glass, held my head and thought, there shouldn't be any more people who know me now, but I can't die, as soon as my eyes moved, I saw Jian Ning wanting to shout but didn't dare to shout with his eyes locked on me, although he was far away, but he could also take a look at Jian Ning with a snicker, she must have seen everything that had just happened, I puffed up my eyebrows and looked at her, smiled slightly, and bowed my chin.

After returning to the temple after the dinner, I was tired like a child, and I only felt that it took energy to carry water and chop firewood, but now I feel that my spirit is even more tense.

I was so sleepy that my upper eyelids were on my lower eyelids, and I returned to the room with the great monk, and just wanted to push the door in, but the big monk grabbed me and asked, "What are you doing?" ”

I hurriedly said, "Of course I'm sleeping, I'm almost tired." ”

The great monk looked at me with a smile and said, "Today's Chinese New Year's Eve, there will be fireworks later, you don't keep the year, but you are ready to sleep directly with your head covered?" ”

I listened, shuddering, "Fireworks? It can't be the kind that was put on the last birthday party, right? It's too noisy, don't look at it, don't look at it. ”

The big monk still didn't let go, and said in a harmonious voice: "The birthday banquet is specially matched by the palace, but we are things, small, and not noisy." ”

I looked at the great monk and reluctantly agreed: "Okay, okay, isn't it okay to keep the New Year?" ”

So, I gave up the intention of going back to my room to sleep, and walked in the temple with the great monk, "By the way, what did Your Majesty let you do today?" ”

The great monk whispered: "It's not just those things, chanting, washing, and watching the heavens. ”

I covered my mouth and smiled, "Looking at the sky? You can still look at the sky? It seems that Your Majesty has used you as a living Buddha! ”

The great monk looked at me and said helplessly: "Xubei, I also deliberately studied the Book of Changes because of this, but later I found that it doesn't matter whether I study it or not. ”

I was curious and asked, "Why?" ”

The great monk sighed: "Because later I found out that it doesn't matter whether it is accurate or not, the important thing is that on such a day, whether it is the royal family or the minister, they just want to hear good words." ”

I said, "What if you say a good thing, but there is a great disaster in the coming year?" ”

The great monk smiled: "You can't say something auspicious, but that's okay, people, it's just not clear, you tell him what he wants to hear, even if it backfires, he will help you find a good excuse, but if you say what he doesn't want to hear, then things will be as you said, even if you don't show your face quietly, but in your heart you hate you." ”

Is it easy to have such a lawsuit between people's hearts and looks?

At tonight's dinner, I have seen it, and it is most unpleasant to mediate with the people of the royal family who are one step at a time, not to mention His Majesty, who holds the supreme imperial power?

Even if His Majesty no longer cares about political affairs, it is not simple to be able to hold the imperial power for so many years under so many fierce eyes.

I shook my head and said, "Heaven is fair. ”

The great monk was puzzled: "What do you mean by this? ”

I said, "Your Majesty holds the imperial power in his hands, and has more scheming in his chest than others, and if he were not ruthless, his achievements would probably be even greater than now." ”

The great monk replied: "But God just let Your Majesty meet the concubine of the year, Your Majesty fell into it again, and the concubine died early in the end, so many accidents overlapping together may be so small, but it still happened." ”

In front, the little monks gathered in the treasure hall with pre-arranged pastries, chatting and waiting for the coming of the New Year, talking and laughing, and no one left the table first.

After glancing in with the great monk from the door, I swept straight over, without stepping into the disturbance of their interest, all year round, the same morning and evening classes, striking the bell and chanting, and only today they can completely relax and talk about what they are really interested in.

About to walk to the great monk's meditation room, the two of them were speechless for a while, but they heard several loud cannons outside, and the big monk hurriedly said: "This is not put by Jinsu Temple." ”

I was completely frightened and woke up unexpectedly, and pulled the great monk to run to the temple gate, "The New Year is coming!" ”

The great monk said as he ran: "What are you running?" ”

I said, "Let's go and see, and we'll go and shoot the artillery." ”

As soon as I arrived at the door, I and the big monks were out of breath, a few children gathered around the corner smoking matches to light a cannonball, smashing on the ground and sparks flew everywhere, but I didn't expect the little monks in the temple to be shocked out, looking at these children with a smile, one of them suddenly proposed: "Why don't we also take the things in the temple here to put them?" ”

Little monks, look at me, I'll look at you.

"Okay!"

"It's so fun!"

……

As he spoke, his eyes fell on the great monk, who cleared his throat and said, "Okay, you guys move carefully!" ”

Not long after, the little monks moved the fireworks in the temple to the door one after another, and after lighting them, it was really not like the birthday banquet night that exploded in the air, but like the thousands of trees and flowers blown away by the east wind, falling like rain, and the multiplicity was dotted, I was stunned, and I always felt that the bright and distant galaxy was now in front of me, and the dream-like beauty.

The big monk secretly hooked my hand in the dark, I turned my face and smiled at him, the little monks on the side stared at the fireworks and looked straight at the fireworks, the children in the corner laughed, jumped, ran, and the cannon in their hands was thrown "bang bang".

In this way, we ushered in the twenty-third year of Nanliang.
