Chapter XXXVII

In the restaurant of Liufu, on the large round table, Jian Xiu sat calmly in a dark blue robe, his eyes squinted slightly, and he lightly picked up the dishes in the bowl.

Mo Changli's expression in a red dress was completely in contrast to Jian Xiu, he smiled, sandwiched a chicken leg into Miss Liu's bowl, and attached sweet words, "Ji'er's body is too thin, eat more." ”

Yun Xiu was stunned, and the corner of his eye glanced at Mo Changli, and his expression was disgusted.

Mo Changli seemed to have already seen Yun Xiu's demeanor, but he was not angry, and even threw a "This is how this is going to be the son of this world" at Yun Xiu after saying this to Miss Liu, which made you angry.

Miss Liu already clearly felt that there was a secret competition between these two people, but she, who was the fuse between these two people, didn't see anything.

She didn't refuse the dishes that Mo Changli sent to the bowl, and she still took Yun Xiusheng's soup. However, she subconsciously glanced at Jian Xiu, but saw that Jian Xiu just sat there coldly and didn't say anything.

Miss Liu put down her chopsticks and muttered, "I'm full, you can eat." ”

When Miss Liu got up, Mo Changli cast a puzzled expression, "Yi'er, this is the end of eating." ”

Miss Liu ignored him and walked out directly.

She did not go back to the room but came to Liu Zhizhou's study, which was still the same as before, and was taken care of by Wu Bo in an orderly manner.

There was a whole wall of books in the study, and the memories of the willows in her mind were clear in her mind, and they had already melted. She remembered that once in this study, her father Liu Xianfu was flipping through an ancient book.

That night, Liu Piaoyi brought a bowl of ginseng soup to her father, and while her father was drinking the soup, she picked up the book that his father was reading.

On the outer cover of that book was written the White Lotus Sect.

Liu Piaoyi heard about the White Lotus Sect in the market, and was very curious, so he flipped through the book. This ancient book of the White Lotus Sect records the history of the White Lotus Sect.

At that time, Liu Piaoyi just glanced at it casually, and she was not interested in those, and at this time, she had deep emotions about it.

Coming tonight, she flipped through her father's book to find the one she had seen that year.

After flipping through it for a while, I finally saw those three words in the innermost part of the bookshelfβ€”β€”β€”β€” White Lotus Sect.

Miss Liu's face flashed with joy. She returned to Luoding City this time not only to worship Luo Yan and meet Pansu Lao Dao, but also because Luo Yan had a large team in Lushui County back then, and Luo Yan's brothers were often in her Yao Village, and even more people from her Yao Village.

At that time, she thought that Luo Yan was just because of his ability and courage, and his brothers were willing to follow him. But she had never seen Luo Yan play the name of the White Lotus Sect.

Now that I think about it, too, the imperial court suppressed the White Lotus Sect, how could it reveal its identity at will.

Under the night light, Miss Liu took a deep breath, slowly opened the book of "White Lotus Sect", and flipped through it.

This book is indeed a record of the history and some events of the White Lotus Sect.

The White Lotus Sect originated during the Song Dynasty, when the White Lotus Sect was only a branch of Buddhism and was not inconspicuous. In the Song Dynasty, the practice of reciting Buddha in folk associations was very common and not unusual. Among their followers, they also preach the idea of "persuading others to do good".

Therefore, the imperial court did not suppress these people who formed associations to recite Buddhism, but helped them more. Song Renzong also gave them a plaque with the word "White Lotus". Not only ordinary people and monks, but also many scholars and even prime ministers have joined such organizations as an honor.

The White Lotus Sect worships Amitabha Buddha, advocates reciting Buddha and keeping precepts, and stipulates that believers do not kill, steal, commit adultery, lie or drink alcohol.

During the Southern Song Dynasty, because the country was facing the dilemma of swords and soldiers at any time, there were more people who recited Buddhism. At that time, the White Lotus Sect was called the "White Lotus Sect".

The real change of the White Lotus Sect occurred during the Yuan Dynasty. At the beginning of the Yuan Dynasty, the White Lotus Sect was not forbidden. Because it doesn't get in the way. But some people use the name of the White Lotus Sect to swagger and deceive, and even rebel.

In the middle and late Yuan Dynasty, the upper-class rulers were very brutal, and the common people were miserable. More and more people began to identify with the idea of the White Lotus rebellion, and many were willing to join them.

Emperor Zhu Yuanzhang of the Ming Dynasty was inextricably linked to the uprising of the White Lotus Sect. Han Shantong's son, "King Xiaoming" Han Lin'er, was the leader of Emperor Taizu. The White Lotus Sect also helped Zhu Yuanzhang to a certain extent in the uprising. Even so, after Zhu Yuanzhang sat on the throne, he still ordered that the White Lotus Sect was strictly forbidden, and even large-scale killing.

Emperor Taizu had a natural fear of rebellion. But the White Lotus Sect did not disappear because of the emperor's suppression. The peasants who attached themselves to the White Lotus Sect had resentment, and some of the people began to do something that they found meaningful.

Since the Zhengde period, there has been a worship of the childless mother, and there is the so-called eight-character mantra of "vacuum hometown, childless mother". It is said that the lifeless old mother is an ancient Buddha who has no birth and no death in heaven, and she wants to return her earthly children to the heavenly realm to avoid calamity, and this heavenly realm is the vacuum home.

In the eighteenth year of Yongle, Tang Sai'er launched a peasant uprising, which was also the prevalence of the White Lotus Sect at that time, but it was still defeated by the imperial court. Since this large-scale war, the trend of the White Lotus Sect has declined, but the imperial court has been suppressing it.

And the reason for all this is that the bureaucratic landlords encroached on the peasants' land in large quantities, the officialdom was dark, corruption was rampant, and the common people at the bottom finally could not hold on, and under the call of the leaders of the White Lotus Sect, a large-scale uprising.

Regardless of whether the White Lotus Sect uprising was wrong or right, it was impossible for the imperial court not to pay attention to it. Nor can it be allowed to prevail.

After Miss Liu covered the book, she finally understood that the people could not fight the court.

His own Yao Village is an example, even if the name of the name is for the people's livelihood, the imperial court will still suppress it and exterminate it.

Whether it was their fault or the fault of the imperial court, Miss Liu felt that it was only left to future generations to comment. But right now, if Su Qingshan and some other White Lotus Sectists didn't do anything against their conscience, she didn't want to see them captured by the imperial court like this.

If it is really said that Luo Yan was wrong four years ago, but is her Yaomin wrong, and are her parents at fault? The court still doesn't care about the lives of the people.

Miss Liu sneered again.

Opening the door of the study and stepping into the night, there was a figure under the osmanthus tree in the courtyard, and Miss Liu raised her eyes and looked at it suspiciously.

There was a man standing under the tree, it was him, Jian Xiu, and his eyes were looking at him.

Miss Liu blinked, her clear eyes full of doubts, as if he was waiting for her.

Jian Xiu walked under the tree, looked sincere, and said quietly, "Is your body okay?" ”

Body?

Miss Liu was stunned, yes, he must have thought he was sick last night.

"I was sick last night, but I'm fine today, it's fine." She said with a smile, for fear that he would be suspicious if she said something inappropriate.

Jian Xiu didn't smile, his face was serious, "Is it that after being bitten by a snake, the poison made your eyes red last night, but it was a sequelae?" ”

He really saw it.

Miss Liu froze, not knowing how to explain.

"Perhaps." She was at a loss for what he said.

Jian Xiu frowned, and his tone was light, "Find a doctor tomorrow to take a look, if it's really a sequelae, you can't ignore it." ”

Looking for a doctor?

Miss Liu's heart tightened, "No, no, no." ”

She was afraid that if she let a doctor like Xingruchen know about her ghost and butterfly coexistence, she would inevitably not know what kind of tongue it would cause.

Ordinary doctors may not be able to show the symptoms, or even be able to see it, but it is as clear as a matter of dust to probe her pulse.

This man is easy to talk and has a strong mouth, and the others? Miss Liu couldn't guarantee it.

He watched her thick eyelashes tremble slightly, her face soft and white, as if glowing in the dark.

Seeing that she refused, Jian Xiu's expression didn't react much, but he said after a half-sound, "Come to me next time like this, don't carry it alone." ”

"Okay." Miss Liu blurted out as he spoke. But as soon as the words came out, he was stunned that he was so obedient to him.

A smile appeared on Jian Xiu's face, "It's late, go and rest." ”

Miss Liu nodded and smiled at him, "The fourth cousin also rested early." ”

Jian Xiu waited for her to go back to the room first before slowly turning around and walking towards her west wing.

In the night light, he sat down at the table, stretched out his left hand, and looked at the row of tooth marks on his wrist, which she had bitten last night, and the teeth had pierced deep into his flesh, bleeding.

After she fell asleep, he washed his hands and applied some powder, and the tooth mark wound was better today.

His eyes were as black as jade, and when he remembered the red eyes last night, he felt that his condition was not ordinary.

What are the symptoms of a child's physical illness?

She doesn't know martial arts, and she doesn't go crazy like practicing.

~~~~~~~~

After returning to the room, Miss Liu lay on the bed and thought not about what Jian Xiu had just said, but about the ancient books she read tonight.

Regarding the White Lotus Sect, the imperial court will not give up tracking down the White Lotus Sect, and it has been vigorously pursuing the White Lotus Sect over the years. Su Qingshan had already kidnapped himself that time, kidnapped Yun Xiu and Jian Xiu to fight, even if he was lucky enough to escape that time, if he was met by Jian Xiu at this time, he would definitely be killed.

He is the commander of the Jinyi Guard, and the Beizhen Fusi under his command is in charge of the edict, and he can arrest, execute, and execute on his own, and I don't know how many cases have been tried. Su Qingshan's case didn't need to ask the emperor at all, he could handle it.

Thinking that he had decided the lives and deaths of many people at a young age, uneasy thoughts hung over her heart.

Miss Liu pondered, or let Su Qingshan leave this Luodingzhou, so as not to run into these brocade guards, maybe there will be a way to live, if Jian Xiu really touches it, it will be difficult to say.
