Yesterday was the Mid-Autumn Festival, and early this morning Wang Xianghe ran to Tianwang Lake to find himself, this is obviously not Wang Xianghe ate too much, and he came over to talk to himself, wishing himself a happy Mid-Autumn Festival.

And since the Mid-Autumn Festival is that the people and officials will celebrate happily as a family, there is no reason why the royal family should not get together to celebrate the Mid-Autumn Festival, right?

So there is almost no need to guess, Xu Changting is almost sure that Wang Xianghe made a special trip to Tianwang Lake to find himself, which is definitely not his own intention, naturally it is the meaning of the current emperor Yuan Hong.

glanced at Pei Murong beside him, and wanted to subconsciously let Pei Murong avoid suspicion, but Pei Murong, who had changed into a new dress, was so eye-catching that even Xu Changting couldn't help but be moved.

So he simply said: "My own people, if the eunuch Wang has anything, just say it." ”

Wang Xianghe glanced at the bright and moving Pei Murong again in surprise, and was a little suspicious in his heart, how can this guy go wherever he goes, there will be such a beautiful beauty around him? The peach blossom luck is too prosperous!

However, it was only a flash in his heart, and he said without any mud and water: "Two things, one: Danfeng City's unfavorable things about some Buddhist monks now, is it a rumor that you deliberately released?" Two: Yesterday, the emperor was admiring the moon in Jingxin Lake, and something happened...... Is it related to you? ”

Xu Changting examined Wang Xianghe, and did not deny or admit that those unfavorable rumors about Buddhist monks were related to him, but asked: "The second thing, what are you referring to?" ”

Wang Xianghe took a deep breath, I have to say that Xu Changting is really scheming, even Wang Xianghe, who has read countless people and dealt with countless officials, can't see the slightest difference from Xu Changting's face.

Looking at the surroundings where people came and went, Wang Xianghe pointed to a more secluded place not far away, and then Xu Changting nodded, signaling Huo Nuer to go and tell his family first, so that they didn't have to wait for themselves to climb Shengfeng Mountain first.

Following Wang Xianghe to the front, Xu Changting found that Pei Murong's expression looked a little strange, and he couldn't help but ask with concern, while Pei Murong looked a little flustered, and barely squeezed out a smile and shook his head to indicate that he was fine.

Wang Xianghe looked at Xu Changting and Pei Murong quietly, and he seemed to have guessed the reason for Pei Murong's panic.

However, Wang Xianghe didn't plan to break it, but told Xu Changting about some magical things that happened in the palace yesterday while walking.

Today's emperor Yuan Hong because of the favor of the noble concubine, so that he gradually became no longer enthusiastic about the matter of worshiping the Buddha, especially since the truce of the Southern Tang Dynasty, Yuan Hong is not only less and less enthusiastic about the Buddhists, but also has further dissatisfaction.

In addition, in the past few days, there have been some things that are not conducive to the Buddhist monks not abiding by the rules and precepts, so that on the night of the full moon of the Mid-Autumn Festival, on the Jingxin Lake painting boat in the palace, the Queen Mother is deeply afraid that these rumors will further increase Yuan Hong's dissatisfaction with the Buddhist family, so she showed Yuan Hong some magical things that are sincere to the Buddha.

For example, a fish that was frozen in ice, after being put into the water, came to life in the pious chanting of the Queen Mother in a short time.

Another example: an ordinary rope, also in the pious chanting of the Queen Mother, is constantly burning after being ignited.

What's even more amazing is that a needle actually floated on the water, and then suddenly exploded in front of everyone.

"Is there such a thing?" Xu Changting frowned and asked.

Wang Xianghe looked at Xu Changting and nodded firmly: "Yes, our family witnessed it yesterday, and there will be no mistake." ”

Xu Changting nodded clearly, and looked at the surface of Tianwang Lake where the painting boats were shuttling endlessly in the distance, and Pei Murong next to him was also surprised at this moment.

Wang Xianghe continued solemnly: "Yesterday, in the window near the Queen Mother, suddenly a bloody handprint appeared, which startled everyone present. Zhang Huipu smiled and said that there were fish in the middle of the lake, so he ordered someone to bring a bowl of water, and then took an ordinary embroidery needle and tried it.

Zhang Huipu said that if the needle sank to the bottom of the bowl, it proved that he was thinking too much, but if it did not sink to the bottom of the bowl, and there would even be other abnormalities, I am afraid that there is something wrong with it.

Then, unexpectedly, the needle actually floated on the surface of the water, and just when everyone was in disbelief, the bowl of water suddenly exploded, confirming Zhang HP's statement.

Then under the queen mother's questioning, Zhang Huipu said that there was a frozen fish in the lake, but it was not a fish demon, but the Bodhisattva was framed before the reincarnation of a pious believer. ”

"So the Queen Mother ordered someone to dive into the water, found the fish that was frozen, and then broke the ice to take the fish and put it in the water, and after a while, the fish actually lived, and then it was released in full view?" Xu Changting continued Wang Xianghe's words.

"You...... How do you know so clearly? Wang Xianghe was startled and asked.

Pei Murong on the side also looked at Xu Changting with a shocked face, but then remembered that Xu Changting had been cultivating Buddhism and recuperating in Yongning Temple for many years, and his heart was immediately relieved: Obviously, Xu Changting should also be a devout Buddhist!

"And what's the story of that burning rope you're talking about?" Xu Changting continued to ask with a relaxed expression.

Wang Xianghe looked at Xu Changting, who didn't look surprised at all, in shock, and after a pause, he continued: "After the fish came back to life last night, the Queen Mother was naturally very happy, so she was ready to let people raise that fish in Longfu Palace, and accompany her to worship the Buddha in the future. However, some people are afraid that the fish is ominous...... thing. ”

"No, at this time, that Zhang HP stood up again, took a rope and said, if the rope in his hand is in front of the fish, if it can be burned, he will worship the Buddha with the Queen Mother, but if the rope continues to burn, does that mean that the fish was killed by someone before reincarnation, so there is still its unfinished calamity ...... in the six realms of reincarnation."

Xu Changting said with a relaxed expression, and Wang Xianghe's face on the side changed and changed, although it was different from what Zhang Huiping said last night, but it seemed to be ...... Now that I think about it, it seems that this is the truth.

The so-called fish, that is, one of the eight auspicious representatives in Buddhism, is also because the wooden fish in front of the Buddha has a warning, and the fish in the Buddhist family means wealth, peace, and the fish can see through the turbid muddy water and have a discerning eye.

"Zhang Huipu told the Queen Mother at the time that this fish has a deep Buddha fate, because of its discerning eyes, so he came to the Queen Mother to complain, I am afraid that it is related to the fact that someone in Danfeng City slandered the Buddhist family during this time, and told the Queen Mother that if it is raised in the palace to chant together, I am afraid that it will violate the Buddha's will, and the rope has not been burned, so I put the fish back to Jingxin Lake." Wang Xianghe looked at Xu Changting thoughtfully, and for a moment he also understood a little why the emperor asked him to come to Xu Changting early in the morning.

The emperor's intention is obviously not to let him tell Xu Changting about the bizarre things last night, but to let him warn Xu Changting that Yu is looking for the Queen Mother to complain about grievances, and mentioning that someone in Danfeng City has slandered the Buddhist family, is it meant to mean something, it is to target those who deliberately spread rumors, and it is to target Xu Changting, the mastermind behind the scenes, right?

"Did the emperor say anything else?" With an unfathomable smile on the corner of his mouth, Xu Changting shook his head slightly and asked Wang Xianghe.

Wang Xianghe also subconsciously shook his head: "No, the emperor just asked our family to tell you the truth about what happened in the palace last night, oh, by the way, the noble concubine also asked our family to ask you, the matter of the fish has nothing to do with you, right?" ”

Xu Changting frowned and asked puzzledly, "What can this have to do with me?" ”

Wang Xianghe sighed slightly and continued: "The noble concubine doesn't believe in Buddhism, Xu Gongzi naturally knows, right? ”

Xu Changting nodded silently, he did know about this matter, but he only knew about it when he was fishing by the river a few days ago, and he didn't know it at all before.

Wang Xianghe looked at Xu Changting, who was silent, and suddenly smiled mysteriously for some reason, and then said: "Xu Gongzi must still remember that some time ago, when the emperor took the noble concubine to Banlong Village, what did you drink for the emperor and the concubine to relieve the heat, right?" It was hot, but you could make ice out of thin air! Can it make sense? And some time ago, you went to the river to fish for three days, and then you think of the ice and fish last night, no wonder the noble concubine thinks it has something to do with you. ”

Xu Changting was a little speechless for a while, he didn't expect that Aunt Yuan's imagination was so rich, and this kind of thing could also be related to him?

But if you think about it carefully, it seems that it is really like that, the ice in the peach juice of the half-dragon at the beginning, fishing by the river some time ago, so ...... It's not too hard for you to freeze fish in ice, is it?

"Did the noble concubine really say that?" Xu Changting frowned and asked.

"What does the concubine mean...... Even if you don't know about it, I'm afraid it has nothing to do with you. Don't forget, although last night was the Mid-Autumn Festival, it is impossible to meditate on the lake and just freeze a piece of ice for no reason, and there is a so-called reincarnated fish in the ice, right? Wang Xianghe's tone of speech at this time was almost exactly the same as Gao Zhaorong's.

Obviously, he was like Gao Zhaorong's upper body at the moment, questioning Xu Changting from Gao Zhaorong's perspective.

This made Xu Changting slightly distracted: Is it that when Wang Xianghe conveys the emperor's will, he will learn the tone of Yuan Hong's speech?

Xu Changting shook his head silently, and then said: "This matter has nothing to do with me at all, but it's ....... ”

"But what?" Wang Xianghe's eyes were a little sharp.

"But what happened in the palace last night was by no means as mysterious and mysterious as Zhang Huipu said, but just pretending to be a ghost." Xu Changting said lightly.

Wang Xianghe's expression tightened, and he asked, "Are you sure?" ”

Xu Changting opened his mouth, and just wanted to say for grant, but suddenly thought of his life experience, so the word of course on his lips was swallowed by him again.

Then he said with a somewhat dazed expression: "Whether it is reincarnation or reincarnation, or the six reincarnations, I can't determine whether it is true or false, but I know very well that last night, whether it was the bloody handprints that surprised everyone, or the embroidery needles floating in the bowl of water and the explosion, including the burning rope...... It's not that hard. ”

"Really?" Wang Xianghe asked again.

Xu Changting was silent, but nodded very firmly.
