On the way down the mountain, it suddenly snowed heavily, and Duan Zhixuan took me to a temple not far away to escape the wind and snow.

A monk brought hot tea and said, "Amitabha, two female donors, please rest here for a while." ”

I immediately clasped my palms together and replied, "Thank you, little master." ”

The little monk made another salute and said: "The female benefactor does not have to be polite, the monks are merciful, since they have come to this temple, they are destined." Amitabha, the female benefactor, please rest, and the little monk said goodbye first. ”

I stopped talking, and watched the little monk leave in return.

Xiaofu was tidying up the bed for me, and when I saw that there was nothing to do, I walked out of the room, stood under the porch, looked at the pine trees in the courtyard and the snow, and couldn't help but sigh: "The snow weighs on the green pine, and the green pine is straight and straight." You must know that the pine is high and clean, and stay until the snow melts. ”

"Amitabha! It seems that the monk has hair, it seems to be vulgar and dustless, dreaming in a dream, and seeing the outside body. ”

I looked at the person who spoke, it was a kind old monk, I frowned slightly, what did he mean by that?

I made a Buddhist salutation to him and asked, "Excuse me, Master, what do you mean by that?" ”

He smiled, looked out of the corridor and said, "Amitabha! The Buddha said: Don't say. Where did the female benefactor come from? Where are they going? ”

I was slightly stunned, looked at the monk, and couldn't help but smile and said, "From where you came from, where you go." ”

The old monk still looked out of the corridor, reached out to catch the falling snow outside the corridor, then turned to me and asked, "Donor, do you say it's water or snow?" ”

I looked at a few drops of water in his hand, and couldn't help but be stunned, this... If you use what I've learned, snow is a natural phenomenon of water condensing in the air and then falling, or snow falling; Snow is a form of water in a solid state. Snow only occurs under the influence of very cold temperatures and extratropical cyclones. Precipitation consisting of large amounts of white, opaque ice crystals and their polymers.

I frowned, thought for a moment and said, "Water is not water, snow is not snow." ”

The old monk smiled and said: "The heart is not the heart, the thing is not the thing, the heart is higher than the thing; The heart is the heart, the thing is the thing, the heart and the thing are one, and the heart and the thing are one; People are in the dust, not dust, dust in the heart, turning into dust; People in the world have no definite law, and then they know that there is no law; The affairs of the world are still unfinished, so why not settle them. ”

I looked at the old monk and was shocked for a while, then folded my hands and gave him a Buddhist salute, and said with a smile: "Thank you for your advice." ”

He smiled and said nothing, and folded his hands in return to me. At this time, a little monk ran up and shouted, "Master Jizang, the presiding officer has prepared the scriptures and waited." ”

I was slightly stunned, looked at the old monk in front of me, and said incredulously: "It turns out that you are Master Jizang." ”

Master Jizang said: "In front of the female benefactor, the little monk does not dare to be. ”

The little monk came running, saluted me, turned to Master Jizang and said, "Master, please come with me." After saying that, the little monk bowed to me again, and led Master Jizang to leave.

Master Jizang looked at me and also performed a Buddha salute, and I returned the salute and looked at the back of him leaving, only to hear: "The mind is not born, but it is born from the origin." The heart is immortal, but it dies when it is destroyed. A thought arises, and a thought dies. Don't force anything! ”

Watching the master's back turn around the corridor and disappear, I turned my head and continued to look at the snow in the courtyard. I didn't believe in gods and Buddhas before, but now I do, maybe it's really fate!

Xiaofu packed up her things and walked out and asked, "Miss, who were you talking to just now?" ”

I looked at Xiaofu, this girl has been with me for a year, two years older than me, and half a head taller than me, and now she is also smart. In two years, I will be of the age of marriage, and I will definitely find a good family for her at that time, but only if she likes it too. Compare my education is not the words of a matchmaker, but free love.

Thinking about me, I smiled and said, "My Xiaofu has also grown up, and in two years, it will be time to get married." ”

Xiaofu instantly blushed and said hotly: "Miss, Buddhism is pure, how can you say these unashamed words." ”

I smiled and said, "Don't my little fu want to get married?" Do you want to be an old girl for the rest of your life? ”

Xiaofu blushed and raised her hand to hit me, "Miss! You..."

I immediately ran into the house, and she chased after her, laughter wafting through the air.

No one noticed that a black figure was standing around the corner, taking in all of this.

…

It wasn't until the wind and snow stopped that Duan Zhixuan came to me and took me back to Duan's mansion.

As soon as he entered the house, he closed the door, I looked at him a little confused, he pulled me to sit at the tea table, and said, "Yue'er, my brother wants to discuss something with you." ”

I frowned slightly, Duan Zhixuan would discuss things with me, and I was very curious and asked, "Brother, what's the matter?" ”

Duan Zhixuan thought for a while and said: "A few days ago, the eldest son and the third son of the Li family came, just to recruit their father, it seems that the world will soon change their names and surnames." ”

I nodded, thinking back to the history of the Tang Dynasty, there is nothing to say about this period of Yanshi, but the person in front of me, Duan Zhixuan, is famous, one of the twenty-four heroes of Lingyan Pavilion under Li Shimin, I remember that when the Xuanwumen Change, he was also involved.

Duan Zhixuan saw that I was thinking, and continued: "But yesterday Li Ergongzi also came, but he didn't look for his father, but met me alone. ”

I was shocked in my heart, Li Shimin has been here. When did it come? When did you meet Duan Zhixuan? Could it be... I looked at Duan Zhixuan and saw him nodding. Sure enough, Duan Zhixuan deliberately took me to that temple to hide from the wind and snow yesterday, and then he never came to look for me, it turned out that he went to see Li Shimin.

I thought about it, and Master Jizang said to me, "Don't force anything." Since Duan Zhixuan is destined to be a capable and famous general under Li Shimin in the future, then I can't deliberately let Duan Zhixuan join Li Jiancheng because I like Li Yuanji now.

I looked at Duan Zhixuan and said, "Second Prince Li is a good choice, and he will definitely become famous in the future with his brother." ”

Duan Zhixuan looked at me, thought for a while, nodded and said, "Okay, since Yue'er said this, then I will go back to the second son." But now if I leave my father, I will have no troops, how can I serve my second son. ”

I thought about it for a while and said with a smile: "Brother, aren't there hundreds of people in prison?" ”

Duan Zhixuan was stunned for a moment, looked at me in surprise and said, "What does Yue'er mean..."

I nodded and said, "That's right, those mountain bandits, they are all capital crimes, if someone gives them a chance to make meritorious contributions, they will definitely be able to be loyal, and these mountain bandits are all good at kung fu, as long as they have a little training, they are a strong army." It's up to the elder brother himself, and the remaining elder brother can be recruited slowly. ”

Duan Zhixuan was pleasantly surprised, stepped forward and hugged me, and said excitedly: "Good Yue'er, my brother will definitely be famous in the world, and when the time comes, you will marry in style!" ”

I was speechless, how could this matter still be related to my marriage. However, I still smiled and hugged him back, hoping that in the future, Duan Zhixuan would be the key to the survival of Li Jiancheng and Li Yuanji.

…

Half a month later, it was rumored that Duan Zhixuan had formed a very powerful team by himself, and there was an endless stream of people who came to recruit, and soon the team had expanded from more than 100 people to 500 people.

Duan Zhixuan was very busy, tomorrow was the first day, and when he thought that he hadn't seen Duan Zhixuan for nearly ten days, he had a trace of anticipation in his heart, and wanted to ask him how his army was building. But when I thought about it, I was going to see the two brothers and sisters and Duan Yanshi tomorrow, and I was a little resistant.

The snow is a little heavy today, I looked at the rabbit fur knee pads in my hand, thinking about giving it to Duan Zhixuan tomorrow, although it is a little ugly, but I also made it myself, Duan Zhixuan should like it, right?

Xiaofu brought hot tea, which I specially asked her to make red date and wolfberry tea, and Xiaomei went out to help me get something. Xiaofu looked at me holding the knee pads, shook her head and smiled: "Miss, Li Gongzi will definitely like it." ”

I brushed my cheeks hot, looked at Xiao Fuyan and said happily: "This... This is for my brother! ”

Xiaofu put down the tea and raised her eyebrows slightly: "Oh! Both pairs are for the eldest prince? Then Xiaofu went to tell the eldest prince. ”

I watched her turn around and was about to go out, so I immediately stopped her mouth and said, "Okay, okay, only one pair is for my brother." Okay, right? ”

Xiaofu smiled and poured a cup of jujube tea and handed it to me, I put down my knee pads, but the tea was held in my hand, and immediately a warm current hit, I took a sip, the sweet taste, just like the feeling in my heart now.
