"Rui'er, do you refuse to believe me like this?"

Dinghaihou's eyes flashed with something crystalline, it was not tears, it was just confusion, just confusion, just uncontrollable excitement.

Rui'er turned around, she couldn't bear to look at this man who she used to think about in the morning and twilight, and now he also revealed his weak side.

"Go away before anyone finds us. Born as a child of the Hongyin Dynasty, he must do something for her.

I can't do anything for my mother anymore, but I have to do something for my country. ”

"However, you are just an ordinary girl, you also have the marriage you want, the family you want, and the ordinary life you want."

"No, I'm not qualified to ask for that.

Whoever put my brother on that throne has what he has that we must lose.

And, in essence, we are all one.

The desire for power in our hearts is all the same. ”

After saying the last word, Rui'er suddenly ran out.

She had figured out what she had been thinking about for the last few days, and she had to do something. Instead of waiting for the ceremony of the great funeral in this small temple.

Dinghaihou wanted to reach out to grab her, but the hand fell in mid-air, weak and depressed.

Rui'er just strode like that, and she felt like she had never felt so happy.

All the hesitation, all the uncertainty that I had before, was gone.

She only felt that the future path was her own choice, her own decision, and she had nothing to do with her brother.

She walked into the Red Maple Temple, and the night did not seem to fade away.

However, the old monk who presided over the Red Maple Temple had already started his morning class in the main hall.

The presiding old monk had turned white in ten years, and he didn't know that welcoming Concubine Shu to escape the summer had become such a big sin.

The one above hasn't started to ask for the guilt yet, but these days, those palace maids crying in the backyard and side hall have always made him upset.

Whose sin is this? Damnation?

I don't know how Concubine Shu contracted the plague, obviously no one in the temple has been infected yet, even the palace people who served were only sick after Concubine Shu, and they recovered quickly, and they are all fine now.

Every day they wept loudly, but the magistrate said that they were unknown people, and that they were afraid of infecting others, so they were only detained here, and refused to be imprisoned, but they also refused to let them go.

Every time the presiding old monk heard the cry and scolding, he felt that it was his own fault, and this plague must be because he was always disrespectful in front of the Buddha, so that Hongfeng Temple would suffer from this great disaster.

In the darkest time before dawn, the old monk had not slept well last night, and at this moment he only felt that Venus was shining in front of him, and he saw a young girl coming in from outside.

There was only a dim lamp in the main hall, and he didn't call the little apprentice to get up and add oil, everything was drowsy.

This scene was like a dream, and the old monk watched the young girl walk in step by step.

Completely forgetting that this was the darkest time before dawn, and there would be no normal pilgrims outside at all.

Dreams, illusions?

Princess Rui'er sincerely worshiped and worshipped in front of the Buddha, if her mother has a spirit in the sky, I hope to bless her with the Buddha.

"Master, I want to ask you a few questions."

Rui'er turned to the presiding old monk, she thought that she was still in the morning class in front of the Buddha at the moment, so diligent, she must be a high-ranking monk.

The presiding monk was stunned, he didn't want to, this young woman still had to ask himself questions.

Who is she, why did she come so late at night, and there was no maid or guard to follow.

Looking at her luxurious clothes and extraordinary temperament, she should not be the person who appeared here at this moment. I love to read

At this moment, it should only be those Buddhas who are diligent in practice, chanting Buddhas and Bodhisattvas in their hearts, knocking small wooden fish in their hands, diligently wiping away the dust on their hearts, and making a heart transparent and pure.

However, this woman is here to worship the Buddha diligently, and she has to ask questions to herself.

"I don't know where the donor came from, why is he here at this moment?"

Rui'er smiled, "The master is also confused, why bother asking about karma, isn't it good to just look at the current karma?" ”

The presiding old monk suddenly realized in his heart, "It turned out that I came to ask, and I was sharp."

This is my job, and I'm afraid she won't be able to do it. ”

After calming down, the presiding old monk felt that the girl in front of him was not a ghost or a demon, but just a lost lamb.

"Girl, may I ask."

Princess Rui'er nodded, she remembered the displacement she had been away all these days, when would she ever think that she would have such a day.

came to Haojing from Pennsylvania, and then went to Pingcheng from Haojing.

Thousands of miles away, she has never been able to escape her fate.

When my brother used to hide himself in Pennsylvania, he probably thought that it would be best never to fulfill the mission of the princess by himself.

Who knows, it's all going to turn out too fast.

"Master, my first question is, is there no trouble when a person dies?"

When the presiding monk heard that it was a matter of life and death, he had some compassion, and this was indeed a matter of children.

"After a person dies, if he is blessed, he can go to the Western Elysium, and then he will be free from all troubles;

If there is no good fortune, then you will be reborn and still go around in the world, and then the troubles will continue to follow. ”

"Master, it's really wise. My second question is, do people change? ”

Looking at the serious appearance of the girl in front of him, the presiding monk rose a trace of compassion again.

"People are changing all the time, they are changing, and others are also changing. Even after death, we will change.

But all cause and effect remain the same, emptiness does not change, and the Buddha does not change. ”

Princess Rui'er suddenly asked, "Then the love and hate have not changed?" The Tao has not changed? ”

She asked suddenly, sharply, as if a dark fire had suddenly emerged from beneath the ground.

The presiding monk was taken aback, "Tao, Buddhism doesn't preach." Love and hate are karmic retribution.

Maybe it changes, maybe it doesn't change. ”

"Okay, then my third question, no, I don't have a problem, thank you for the master's suggestion."

When she was about to go out, she suddenly whispered.

"If I do more blessed things, maybe I can cultivate a good afterlife."

This sentence was very light, but the presiding monk heard it, "Girl, don't talk about the next life, let's spend this life." ”

"Taught." She picked up a wooden fish on the ground and crushed it into sawdust with a gentle pinch.

Then, without looking back, Princess Rui'er strode out.

The presiding monk looked at the crumbs of the wooden fish and froze again.

She, who the hell was the broken wooden fish speechless, and the whole hall suddenly became drowsy and empty, as if no one had ever come.

When Princess Rui'er walked out of the Red Maple Temple, a ray of morning light on the horizon had already torn through the dark night sky, and her heart lit up.

At the end of lovesickness, he broke off his exile.
