070 Things from the past
Chi Feng Kite went non-stop for a day and a night to the place that her grandmother said.
Muqu Mountain, steep and straight, few people on the mountain, there are hunters into the mountain often frightened back, saying that there are fierce insects in the mountain.
There are no villages around.
When Chi Feng Kite arrived at the place, he dismounted, and let his entourage stay at the bottom of the mountain, and he went straight to the east, and there was a mountain road.
He went up the mountain, and halfway through, he heard movement behind him, drew his sword and blocked it, and a small pebble was bounced away by the sword.
Chi Feng Yuan put down the sword in his hand and said, "My grandmother is the lord of Rongcheng, my wife's aunt and grandmother's name is Fang Rou, my wife is now poisoned, please save my wife's life." ”
At this time, a monk appeared, holding a Zen staff in one hand and bowing in the other.
Chi Fengyuan took out the seal that his grandmother gave him, and the man took it and looked at it, and turned around for him to leave.
Chi Feng Kite went down the mountain at great speed, got on the horse and galloped away.
When I came back, I saw that Yuxi was still lying quietly as when he left.
He went to his grandmother again and returned the seal to her.
Chi Fengyuan asked, "Grandmother, is He Qing trying to force Master Minghui to come out?" ”
Along the way, he kept thinking, did the Empress Dowager just attack the jade rhino just to threaten him?
And what are the two Buddhist scriptures that were given to Yuxi before?
When He was young, two girlfriends died and the other went crazy, and the crazy one also died after giving the Buddhist scriptures, is there any connection between this?
Mrs. Chi was in a trance, immersed in her memories.
After a while, he said: "Fang Rou will be the crown princess at the age of ten, and she will marry into the palace with the queen's gift." Very few people have seen her, I know her in the palace, but ...... I don't like her much. I'm a royal girl, I've been high up since I was a child, I don't like Fang Rou, she has a kind of casual casualness, I don't think she deserves to be a queen. ”
"He Qing," Mrs. Chi paused and said, "I knew her earlier than Fang Rou, she is a person who will like her as long as she is in contact with her, proficient in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, and is kind to her, everyone praises her, many teenagers are fascinated by her, and the He family who asks for marriage refuses." ”
Chi Feng Yuan asked, "Including the Fang family?" ”
Old Madam Chi glanced at her grandson, shook her head and said, "There is no Fang family, Uncle Fang and Brother He Qing are classmates. ”
She looked at her grandson meaningfully, and then didn't say anything about the Fang family.
"He Qing took the initiative to date Fang Rou, she had a good relationship with a princess in the palace, and met Fang Rou in the palace, and we often met at the princess's time. He Qing...... It really makes people think that she is very good, very good, I thought that she was dating Fang Rou in order to make friends with the future queen, until I accidentally saw her looking at Fang Rou's back with unkind eyes, I was surprised, and I began to pay attention to her, she was so well disguised, I thought she would be jealous at first for the queen's position. ”
Chi Fengyuan also thought that the Empress Dowager was very kind before, and almost all the ladies praised the Empress Dowager very much, and tried to hide from the Empress Dowager.
He felt from the emperor's attitude towards the empress dowager that the empress dowager was not ordinary, and the person who could make the emperor vigilant and cautious was not a kind and amiable person.
"Because I didn't like Fang Rou, I didn't remind her to be wary of He Qing, Minghui...... If he is not a monk, I will call him a cousin, he returned to Beijing to participate in the emperor's wedding, the emperor is very good to this younger brother who has been a monk since he was a child, and joked that you are still vulgar, I will give you the position, and Fang Rou and I will go to the mountain. ”
"Your Majesty...... I like Fang Rou very much, because she has no palace concubine in the palace, she is waiting to marry Fang Rou. Injustice, Minghui entered the palace, the emperor asked Minghui to preach the scriptures, and let a few of us listen together. I went to Xiangshan to find Minghui, and overheard Minghui talking to Fang Rou, Fang Rou told the emperor that she would not enter the palace, and Minghui also told the emperor that he still took Fang Rou to the west and never returned to Beijing. I was taken aback, I didn't expect them to be in love. ”
Chi Fengyuan listened quietly, he already knew some of these before.
"Your Majesty...... There are few like this, he was reluctant to Fang Rou, and he didn't want Fang Rou to be wronged, so he agreed. I'm Minghui's cousin, Huiming...... It makes people feel that the gods in the sky are nothing more than that, every time Minghui enters the palace, the emperor is very happy, I saw He Qing's eyes again, others didn't pay attention to her, but I kept paying attention, and I still saw that she saw Minghui differently. She first contacted Fang Rou perhaps because of the queen's position, and later because of Minghui. ”
Old Madam Chi's voice gradually lowered, and there was pain in her eyes.
"At that time, I was not worth it for the emperor and Minghui, and I felt that for the sake of Fang Rou's brothers, how could Fang Rou be virtuous? I was impulsive, pretending to be surprised to tell He Qing about Minghui and Fang Rou, and I thought that He Qing would break them up if he knew. Later, I knew that I was jealous of Fang Rou, how could she live so comfortably and casually, the emperor was devoted to her, and Minghui gave up the glory and wealth of the capital for her. But I didn't expect He Qing to be more jealous of Fang Rou, I didn't expect her to let Fang Rou die. ”
Mrs. Chi shed tears, Fang Rou was gone, Minghui left Beijing and went to the snow-capped mountains in the west, and the emperor married He Qing, but he was not happy.
"Fang Rou is gone, I am ashamed of Minghui, ashamed of Fang Rou, I followed He Qing to Xiangshan, and heard He Qing say to Minghui that she was willing to accompany him to the west, she didn't want anything, as long as she followed Minghui, I saw the madness and obsession in her eyes, Minghui rejected her, saying that she would pray for Fang Rou for a lifetime to pray for the next life for the two of them to meet."
Old Madam Chi's eyes showed anger, and the speed of her speech became faster.
Minghui didn't know that Fang Rou's death was related to He Qing, and didn't guard against her. He Qing said that if she didn't take her away, she would jump off the mountain, He Qing showed her true face in front of people for the only time in her life, her crazy face. She was really jumping, Minghui went to pull her, I saw her holding Minghui's hand and pushing back, she wanted to die with Minghui! ”
She took another deep breath and said, "The monk who followed Minghui came out of nowhere to stop it, at that time, my age had not gone through such a blink of an eye, and I fainted with fright. Since then, Xiangshan has been guarded, no one can enter, only I give Fang Rou incense and sweep the tomb every year. I told Minghui what I did, I didn't ask him for forgiveness, it was my fault, why forgive me? But Minghui didn't say anything, I could go in and incense Fang Rou, he didn't hold a grudge against me. ”
Hearing this, Chi Fengyuan still asked what he had just asked: "He Qing poisoned the jade rhino in order to force Minghui to come out?" ”
Old Madam Chi shook her head and said, "You can never guess what He Qing is doing, maybe it is, maybe there are other reasons. ”
She looked into the distance and said, "The only one who can make He Qing take out the antidote is Minghui, this year is the time that Fang Rou and Minghui made an appointment to go back to Xiangshan together and return to the place where they dated." Minghui didn't leave because he was going to do something for Fang Rou next month, and when Fang Rou was born, He Qing probably knew about it. ”
Chi Feng Kite took a deep breath and said, "I know. ”
