Chapter 204: My Wife and Children. 3
She and Xiao Lisheng are half happy, half bitter.
The courtyard is deep without half a human figure, and on the dark and rainy night, the flowers and trees swayed and fell long shadows, giving birth to countless gloomy shadows.
It stands to reason that if the coffin was really taken away by Xiao Lisheng, it must be in the palace, but now, it is so quiet from the palace that there is no one at all.
For the first time, she doubted her guess, could it be that she guessed wrong?
Just as she was thinking about it, a human voice came from the noisy wind and rain, and she hurriedly dodged behind the shadows of the flowers and trees, listening attentively, and the people who came walked in the rain, but their steps were extremely brisk.
The internal force is profound, and the light work is superior.
If the coffin is not here, how can someone come from the palace late at night? There must be something strange.
With a thought in her mind, she had already swept out briskly, following the figure as she moved, and she hurried across the courtyard corridor, seeing a bright red figure in the distance.
Her body staggered, this person is not Fo Leng, who else could it be?
Follen left the Regent's Mansion before her, how could he arrive later than her? As soon as her mind moved, she had an answer, thinking about it, Fo Leng was afraid that she had already gone to the palace.
Watching his brisk and flying figure fluttering among the branches and leaves of the green onion tree, where he passed, the hem of his clothes was flipped, and it was clear that he was like a red lotus in full bloom.
A moment of elegance, unparalleled in the world.
He went too quickly and never looked back, he didn't notice her following, Yun Geci hurriedly chased after her, and just fell from the high wall, the wide and deep courtyard fell red.
On Mayday, the acacia tree bloomed for thirty years, and it was time for the flowering season to wither.
Half a night of wind and rain, the red flowers fell to the ground, at a glance, the soft red of the ground, endless ripples and delicate, such as the big red wedding dress she wore when she married into the palace that day.
Fo Leng had stopped, and was standing under the flower tree not far away, the rain was falling slowly, and he stood motionless in the vast dark night, and she saw not far away, there was a slight flickering fire.
The huge one is away from the palace, only this one has a fire, she took a closer look, and then found that she unconsciously followed the Buddha Leng to the West Buddha Hall.
After she and Xiao Lisheng got married, after a few years of fighting, Xiao Lisheng won the appreciation of Emperor Wen and had a certain position in the court.
Although he moved out of the palace, he was able to go in and out of the palace frequently.
She remembered that that day, the third year after she married him, Xiao Lisheng came back from the palace, his expression was extremely ugly and weird, and he was silent for a day, even when she talked to him, he refused to speak.
He locked himself in the study all day, and when he came out at night, he saw her waiting at the door of the study, and the first thing he said was: "Ah Ci, I want to set up a Buddhist hall." ”
Buddha Hall? She was stunned for a moment before she reacted, Xiao Lisheng has never believed in gods and Buddhas, does not believe in fate, and has never set foot in the temple and Buddha hall.
Why do you want to set up a Buddhist hall in the house today?
Seeing that his expression was not happy, she didn't want to ask too much, and ordered someone to open a secluded courtyard in the west of the palace, and invited a monk to baptize and establish a Buddha.
At that time, she didn't believe in Buddhism, and after the Buddhist hall was set up, she rarely went, and every time she went, it was because she went to find Xiao Lisheng.
The West Buddha Hall has become the place where Xiao Lisheng goes most often.
He spread everyone and meditated in front of the Buddha, bowing down reverently, not allowing anyone to disturb him, not even to come close.
Xiao Lisheng's temperament has changed greatly, if it starts from that day.
The man was more reticent than before, cold and angry, and controlled his emotions to almost no ups and downs.
She no longer saw him laughing, no longer seeing him sad, and the young man grew into a cold appearance in the deep separation from the palace.
During that time, she was in the midst of a war with Beihu, and she ran around the court all day long, rarely having time to take care of Xiao Lisheng, and couldn't explore the changes in his mind.
Then, she commanded an expedition to Beihu, and soon after, Xiao Lisheng also led his troops to the remote Moxi, thousands of miles away from her.
The war with Beihu lasted for more than a year, and when she came back, Emperor Wen specially allowed Xiao Lisheng a three-month holiday in order to comfort her, and the two of them were able to meet in Chang'an.
Xiao Lisheng returned to Chang'an for three months, except for the time spent with her, he stayed in the Buddhist hall, cleaned his clothes and burned incense, and meditated and meditated.
She went to him occasionally, but she didn't like the darkness and depression in the Buddhist hall, and she didn't stay for long.
When Xiao Lisheng left from Chang'an, she went to see him off, and the only thing he told her was to let her, when she was free, go to the Buddha Hall to burn incense for him.
The furnishings in the Buddha hall cannot be moved.
She smiled and nodded, but her heart was sour, they had not seen each other for more than a year, and when they saw each other again, she obviously felt Xiao Lisheng's alienation.
There is no warm affection between husband and wife before.
Seeing that it was another long separation, Xiao Lisheng was not reluctant at all, and he refused to say a word even if he told her to take care.
After sending Xiao Lisheng away, she searched the world and went to the Buddha Hall to burn incense according to his wishes, and was inevitably a little curious about Xiao Lisheng's importance to the Buddha Hall.
But she checked the inside and outside of the Buddha hall, and she didn't find the slightest difference, except for a Maitreya Buddha enshrined in the Buddha hall, which is an incense burner futon, and nothing else.
In the end, she and Xiao Lisheng were no longer in love with each other, and he stepped on the bones of the Yun family and her corpse to ascend to the position of the Ninety-Five, but she still failed to discover the secrets in the Buddhist hall.
She just felt that in the Buddha hall, there must be Xiao Lisheng's most obscure secret, and this secret was only known to him.
Even she didn't know the slightest.
After Xiao Lisheng ascended the throne, the entire Liwang Mansion was abandoned by Xiao Lisheng, and even the West Buddha Hall, which he valued the most at the time, could not be spared.
Come to think of it, the secrets hidden in the Buddha hall have been silently erased by Xiao Lisheng.
Now that the West Buddha Hall is on fire again, her heart was picked up in an instant, and the coffin must have been carried to this place.
This place is the place where Xiao Lisheng makes offerings to the gods and Buddhas.
Now it is a tomb for souls.
In order to get a glimpse of the scene where the lights were, she quietly turned back, jumped on the high wall, hid among the shadows of the trees, and saw the wind lanterns swaying from side to side under the eaves of the Buddhist hall.
In the hazy light of the wind lamp, a black figure was hidden in the dim light, and the halo depicted the cold and deep outline of the person, and a knife seemed to be hidden between his eyebrows, and the edge was fierce.
Seeing this face, the blood in her body suddenly reversed, and a fire burned in her brain, and the three words Xiao Lisheng were like a barb, pierced into her heart, and could not be removed.
She didn't expect that Xiao Lisheng would leave the palace in person.
The fire spread to the courtyard in front of the corridor, where there were two coffins lying upright, buried in the ground for some years, washed by the rain, the color of the coffins, black and heavy, without any damage.
Back then, Xiao Yihan used a lot of thought to build the coffin for them.
It's a pity that no matter how good the coffin is, the people buried in it will only have broken bones left.
