Chapter Eighty-Six: Copying the Scriptures
It takes a total of three days to keep the spirit, on the first night, Lin Zuiliu and Liao Luan were guarding together, and in the next two days, she has been in the inner hall, keeping watch with the concubines of the little emperor.
It wasn't until the third day that Liao Luan sent her back to Zhennan Wangfu.
The coffin of the Queen Mother was to be sent to the imperial mausoleum, and she was buried in a mausoleum with the first emperor in a side hall not far from him.
These things, a female relative like Lin Zuiliu is not suitable for mixing, she went back to the palace directly, looked at the cold and empty room, and suddenly felt a little uncomfortable.
She slowly sat down in her chair and began to ponder what had happened in the palace in the past two days.
The Queen Mother has always disliked Concubine Chen during her lifetime, this is something that everyone knows, Lin Zuiliu has always felt that even if she is herself, she can't repay the Queen Mother with virtue.
But she didn't expect that in the past three days, the person who did not fall in the inner hall for a moment every day turned out to be Concubine Chen.
Concubine Chen talked to her a lot, and when she talked about it the most, her eyes were almost red.
"Actually, the queen mother doesn't dislike me as much as it is rumored outside, she just can't accept the emperor's attitude towards me, I can understand it."
She thought of what Concubine Chen said, and finally couldn't help but sigh.
After the Queen Mother's funeral, the capital was silent for a long time, no shouting was allowed on the street, and no one went to all kinds of entertainment venues for recreation, let alone getting married.
Concubine Chen once said with Lin Zuiliu that she would go to Ding'an Temple to copy the scriptures for the Queen Mother, and Lin Zuiliu also gladly agreed, so after Liao Luan came back from the palace today, he found Lin Zuiliu.
As soon as they met, he looked at Lin Zuiliu and immediately said, "I heard the emperor say that you promised to go with Concubine Chen to copy the scriptures?" ”
It's been a month, and Lin Zuiliu has almost forgotten about it, and now Liao Luan suddenly remembered it when she mentioned it, and nodded in realization.
"Yes, the concubine did tell me once when she was guarding the spirit, and I should have gone down at that time, but I didn't expect it to take so long to go."
Liao Luan was very reluctant to let Lin Zuiliu leave him to act alone, and he was also very reluctant not to see her for a long time.
However, today, the emperor Longkou has agreed to Concubine Chen, and specially instructed himself to let Lin Zuiliu go with him, and he can't refuse.
"The emperor told me today, asked me to come back and tell you, and set off the day after tomorrow, and asked you to go to Ding'an Temple with Concubine Chen."
Liao Luan is often busy with government affairs, and he is bored to stay in the palace every day, and when he heard Liao Luan say this, Lin Zuiliu readily agreed.
I didn't expect Lin Zuiliu to agree to such a happy Liao Luan......
"You...... Isn't there anything you want to tell me? ”
Liao Luan's expression looked really tangled, and Lin Zuiliu thought about it for a long time and couldn't figure out what he wanted to say to her, so he smacked his lips.
"Wishing myself a nice trip?"
Her inquiring expression was very sincere, Liao Luan blocked her chest in one breath, waved her hand depressedly, turned around and left the small courtyard directly.
Seeing Liao Luan like this, Lin Zuiliu turned to look at Yi Dong beside him, frowned and said, "What does he want me to say?" ”
Yi Dong also shook his head in confusion, and the master and servant looked at each other for a long time before Lin Zuiliu got up and went into the house to find Cui He to pack his things.
Two days passed quickly, and Concubine Chen came to pick up Lin Zuiliu in her own carriage.
The words of the Buddhist scriptures are more complicated, and the words are more difficult to speak, and it requires people to calm down, so it takes a long time to copy a scripture book, which takes about a week.
Lin Zuiliu got into the carriage with him, Concubine Chen was favored, and the carriage in the palace was naturally not small compared to the Zhennan Palace, so it was not bad.
The carriage went up the mountain steadily, and Concubine Chen and Lin Zuiliu were coquettish guests, so they arrived at the gate of Ding'an Temple, and the host was at the door.
Looking at the familiar walls, plaques, and familiar hosts, Lin Zuiliu suddenly remembered the scene of last year's affair with the Queen Mother and Princess Zhaoyuan.
Last year, she was injured, and she was unconscious all the way, and she didn't see her until she went to Ding'an Temple, and now when she came over, she saw that everyone was bowing to her and Concubine Chen with their hands together, and they hurriedly said no.
The house arranged by the host for the two of them is in the wing room on the east side, it seems that the wing rooms here all look similar, Lin Zuiliu pushed the door in, and saw that the building was similar to the original life she had lived in.
It made her think about things even more.
She was here thinking about the good old days, in the palace, as soon as Liao Luan, who had already left the court, returned to the palace, the housekeeper told him that Lin Zuiliu had been picked up.
Before he could say goodbye, the little girl was taken away.
Is Concubine Chen in such a hurry?
What's going on with the emperor, why don't you know how to pull it!
However, no matter how resentful he was in his heart, it was a fact that Lin Zuiliu had left, and he really hadn't seen the little girl for three weeks.
Now that the facts have been decided, he didn't think much about it, turned around and went directly into the study, Shaoguang was standing at the door with a letter in his hand, and handed him the letter when he saw Liao Luan coming.
It was a week to copy the Buddhist scriptures, and Lin Zuiliu followed Concubine Chen every day to get up and go into the scripture pavilion to copy the scriptures one by one.
Lin Zuiliu's ancient characters are not well written, which also comes down to the fact that she didn't know how to write calligraphy, Liao Luan has seen her crawl many times, and finally couldn't hold back, pulled her and began to teach her to write.
Liao Luan's handwriting is very good-looking, with a thin gold font in one hand, and it should be more aggressive, with the momentum of breaking through the clouds, and the writing is very good-looking.
He has always been the kind of careful person, and he specially wrote a handwritten outline for Lin Zuiliu for her to practice.
Therefore, for such a long time, Lin Zuiliu's words are also a little bit of Liao Luan's style.
Because of this, Concubine Chen was quite puzzled when she saw her writing on the first day.
"You are the word...... What is a thin gold body? ”
Women rarely practice thin gold characters, after all, the pen is too sharp, not suitable for ancient women who have always admired gentleness and gentleness.
I didn't expect Lin Zuiliu's thin gold body to be written in a decent way.
Lin Zuiliu didn't hide it, and said directly with a big grin, "I didn't ask Mr. to teach calligraphy before, this is taught by the prince, and he learns thin gold body." ”
Concubine Chen has never inquired much about Lin Zuiliu's life experience, but it has been boiling for a while, and she has heard some of it even if she doesn't go social.
Therefore, she also understood the reason why Lin Zuiliu couldn't afford to teach Mr. Xi.
And Concubine Chen's own writing is a good-looking fly-headed small letter, the handwriting is small and clear, and it is very neat, Lin Zuiliu couldn't help but exclaim when she saw it.
Sure enough, people can't be good-looking, who can say that a good-looking woman is a vase?
The two of them calmed down and copied the scriptures until the afternoon, until their backs ached and their necks hurt, and Lin Zuiliu finally put down the pen unbearably, and looked at Concubine Chen on the opposite side who was still writing carefully stroke by stroke.
"It's not good for your eyes to write for so long, don't write it yet, we'll just walk around and rest our eyes."
Hearing Lin Zuiliu's proposal, Concubine Chen also nodded, got up and followed Lin Zuiliu out of the Tibetan Scripture Pavilion together, walked out of the courtyard along the path, and followed the bamboo forest in the backyard.
The bamboo forest is still the original bamboo forest, and the bamboo looks lush at this time, and the two of them are chatting all the way, but there is also a kind of leisure that steals half a day.
There were a few monks on the trail along the way, who were sweeping the ground with a big broom all at once, and the two chatted happily and didn't care about looking around, and the monk who was wearing a white robe sweeping the floor with his back to them bumped into Concubine Chen.
Concubine Chen has been in the palace for a long time, and she has always been a delicate body, but now that she is hit like this, she is about to fall backwards as soon as she stumbles.
Lin Zuiliu was startled, and subconsciously wanted to reach out to help, but before the hand fell on Concubine Chen, suddenly a pair of big hands with distinct bones suddenly supported Concubine Chen.
She breathed a sigh of relief in her heart, and then she raised her head to look, and found that it was the little monk who had just bumped into the two of them who was holding Concubine Chen.
The monk looked at the grade was not big, his eyebrows were handsome, and he was quite tall, Lin Zuiliu looked at him with high eyebrows and sharp eyes, and for a while he felt that he was a little different from the monks who were like masters of the Tao in his mind.
After he helped Concubine Chen, he immediately lowered his head, because he was holding a broom in one hand, he only stretched out one hand and put it in front of him, and said, "Amitabha, I collided with the two female donors, it is really the poor monk's, the poor monk apologizes here." ”
He also had a nice voice, very magnetic and mild.
Lin Zuiliu waved his hand and said, "It's okay, it's because we didn't see the road", then turned to look at Concubine Chen beside her, and asked, "Are you okay, Chen'er, where are you knocking?" ”
After she finished asking in one sentence, Concubine Chen didn't pay attention to her, Lin Zuiliu thought she was frightened, and she was a little anxious, and hurriedly pulled her up and down for a long time.
While looking, he said in his mouth, "What's wrong with you?" It's all right. ”
At this time, Concubine Chen's eyes kept staring directly at the little monk in front of her, and without blinking, Lin Zuiliu finally felt that something was wrong.
God, wouldn't it be because this little monk is good-looking that Concubine Chen will take a fancy to him.
She blatantly cuckolded the little emperor like this, and the little emperor liked her so much, he wouldn't crush her in anger and then connect the nine clans.
She is also a witness to this series of events, and she will not be clicked directly with her when the time comes......
The more she thought about it, the more frightened she became, Lin Zuiliu almost wanted to directly pull Concubine Chen out of this ominous place.
Where Cheng thought, before she started to put into action, Concubine Chen, who had been in a daze, suddenly said softly, "Long time no see." ”
The phrase "long time no see" contains a lot of emotions, including happiness, relief, and reluctance.
However, what Concubine Chen said at this time, Lin Zuiliu couldn't hear what kind of emotion she was saying.
She didn't expect that these two identities were very different, and the people who couldn't beat the eight poles actually knew each other.
