054 Statue of the Celestial Maiden

Xi'er nodded and whispered, "The eyes of the Qiao family lady were injured five years ago. ”

Five years ago?

It should have been eleven years old.

Chang Sui Ning frowned slightly and asked, "How did you get hurt?" ”

"He fell from his horse, injured his head, and almost lost his life, and woke up in a coma for several days...... Because of the injury in the brain, Lang Zhong took another pill in order to save people, and he couldn't see when he woke up. ”

Xi'er said sadly: "The girl and the lady of the Qiao family have grown up together since childhood, and I don't know how many times I cried day and night for this matter in those two years......"

Speaking of this, I couldn't help but be moved: "There was a time when the girl wanted to hug the Qiao family lady and cry together, saying that even if her eyes were cried together, it was good to accompany the Qiao family to not see it." ”

I still remember that the lady of the Qiao family held back her tears and said - I understand my sister's intentions, but Lang Zhong said that I can't cry anymore, and I really can't accompany my sister. My sister is free to cry, don't be restrained.

The girl sobbed, and it was not interesting to cry alone, and there was no way to be unrestrained, so she slowly stopped.

Chang Suining couldn't help asking: "Is there really no way to recover?" ”

Xi'er sighed: "The medical officer in the palace has seen it, and I have also seen many Langzhong, but they are helpless. ”

And when it comes to the question of recovery -

Xi'er couldn't help but whisper: "Girl, have you consciously been getting better recently?" ”

Chang Suining: "Not at all. ”

Xi'er wrung her fingers: "But it's half a moon today......"

Chang Suining reacted for a moment, and then thought of what he said on the day he 'first met' Xi'er-

"Oh, the half-moon period, I'm talking nonsense."

She said that Xi'er secretly counted what she was counting with her fingers all day long.

Xi'er's eyes widened and she said "ah": "Girl, why is this?" ”

Chang Suining took a sip of tea: "I was afraid that you had something to do with the things that hurt me that week, so I didn't dare to believe it, so I casually said it to bluff you, lest you tell lies and deceive me." ”

Xi'er: "......"

The girl is really candid!

And after thinking about it, since the girl chose to speak clearly with her at this time, doesn't that mean that after the girl lost her memory, she actually regained the trust of the girl for the second time?

Well done, Xi'er, it's you!

And if you ask what the trick is, it's nothing more than three words - with sincerity.

Xi'er clenched her fists, affirmed herself, and summed up her experience, and couldn't help asking: "...... girl's brain?"

Chang Suining said decisively: "It's not better." ”

Listening to her girl's tone of "there is no room for salvation at all" and "completely give up treatment", Xi'er stopped talking for a while, and finally accepted this cruel reality.

……

In the tower of the goddess, the white marble plastic pool, in the center of the pond water, there is a statue of white jade, crystal clear, the jade light is moist, it seems to be real and illusory.

That statue is the statue of the "Heavenly Maiden" enshrined in this tower.

"The Buddha said that reincarnation is mysterious, and it is difficult for me to understand it, even if I can't explain it explicitly, can the gods and Buddhas give me some guidance...... What the hell am I going to do......

The white-haired Emperor of the Holy Book raised his head slightly, looked at the colorful statues of gods and Buddhas painted on the walls of the square tower, and muttered to himself: "When will my son return......

The tower was silent, only the water in the pond flowed softly, and no one or a god or Buddha responded to the emperor's prayers.

The Holy Emperor's gaze slowly drooped and fell back on the statue of the Celestial Maiden.

The original flawless white jade statue has a striking crack in front of its neck at this moment.

Cui Jing looked at the crack and listened to Master Wuji chanting "Amitabha" beside him.

Mingluo's gaze has always been fixed on the face of the statue of the goddess, in front of him is clearly a jade carving thing, but it is also lifelike, the carving work is meticulous to every strand of hair, under the incense offering for many years, it is better to have a divine soul, so that people see this image, it is as if they really see a young woman who is infinitely gorgeous and noble and stubborn, standing tall and not arrogant, looking at them without sorrow or joy.

But how good can it be?

After all, all that's left is just a cold jade statue.

Ming Luo lowered his eyes and looked at his own reflection in the pool.

As she had done countless times in the mirror, she raised her cold eyebrows slightly, and silently flattened the corners of her lips, making her demeanor even calmer.

The waves of water shook the reflection into a different shape, and she raised her eyes again.

Half an hour later, the Holy Book Emperor walked out of the Heavenly Maiden Tower.

An official waiting outside greeted him and saluted.

The only trace of touch on the face of the emperor who came out of the tower was gone, and only the solemn attitude of the emperor remained, and he led his ministers to the apse to discuss matters.

Ming Luo was instructed to go to the officials of the Ministry of Rites to arrange and check the matters of tomorrow's prayer ceremony, so he stayed here to salute and send the holy car away.

When she straightened up and subconsciously looked to her side, Cui Jing was gone.

"Nushi, you say...... Is the magic circle in the Celestial Maiden Tower here really useful? The henchwoman envoy who had been following Ming Luo's side for many years asked quietly.

Ming Luo twisted his eyebrows slightly: "Don't discuss this matter in vain." ”

The female envoy was busy with her face: "The servant knows his mistake." ”

Mingluo raised his feet and walked forward, hearing the sound of the copper bell hanging high on the tower behind him, and a trace of irony flashed in his eyes.

People have been dead for many years, and their bodies have long been turned into white bones, so how can they talk about resurrection?

My aunt is so holy, how can she not know that this so-called magic circle is just a delusion...... In the end, it's just to make up for the debt in my heart.

This tower was not built for the "Heavenly Maiden", but for the aunt's heart that could not break through the obstacle of reconciliation.

What about the Ninety-Five, my aunt is still old, and the highest position is also the lonely, so she is so trapped in the old things, and the trace of family affection that she once gave up and cut off by her own hands in the old things.

That's a good thing –

Mingluo looked ahead.

At least for her, it couldn't have been better.

……

After half a day of busy settlement, most of the officials were tired, so they stayed in the meditation room to rest in preparation for tomorrow's prayer ceremony.

In this way, except for the monks and the officials and palace people who are preparing for the ceremony, it is rare to see the figure of loitering around the temple.

And in the bamboo forest behind a Zen temple, there was a woman's cold sarcastic words at this time.

"Lord Lang hasn't returned home for a long time, if he hadn't come here with his car, it would be difficult to see Lord Lang...... If you don't know, you have to be the lord of the Lang who has another family and children outside the house. ”

The man's tone was restrained: "Yesterday's death of the Qin family, you and I have a record in our hearts, why should my wife still act here as if she was deeply harmed by my Yao family." ”

"What does Qin's death have to do with me? How many doctors she has hired over the years, and she has died of a long illness without a doctor...... Even if you want to blame it, you can only blame her for this catastrophe in her life! ”

Pei's cheeks trembled slightly because of excitement: "Lang mainly calculates this account for her and me, and my dignified Pei family's eldest daughter lives like this, and those concubines in the clan are all a hundred times more decent than me!" Who am I going to ask for this debt? ”

Looking at each other, Yao Yi's jaw tightened, and after a while, he said word by word: "From beginning to end, only your heart is not respectable." Pei, it's not that I forced you to 'marry' to the Yao family. ”

Hearing him say this, Pei's eyes turned red with anger: "Yao Yi, you are supported by my Pei family, and it will be difficult for me to have an heir if I destroy my body for you...... Why do you accuse me! ”

Yao Yi looked at her steadily: "Not long after you gave birth to Ran'er, because you were too suspicious, you repeatedly suspected that I was having an affair with the female envoy in the mansion...... You are suspicious, depressed and angry because of the postpartum wind, so you fell into the root of the disease, no wonder others! ”

"You talked about this, put all the blame on me, and repeatedly mentioned it in front of Ran'er, saying that it was because you gave birth to her that you ended up like this, and I can't make her feel guilty and uneasy all the timeβ€”β€”"

"Over the years, you have held your identity as the daughter of the Pei family, and you have done everything in the house, everyone has bowed down to you and tolerated you in every way, but you still don't know how to be satisfied...... You must know that my Yao family has never owed you a cent! ”

Yao Yi said this, took a deep breath, and calmed down: "I have been married for many years, I think I have never been ashamed of you - today I am all I say, if you are still stubborn and treat my Yao family as an enemy, then it is better to separate from each other, you belong to your Pei family, and be your eldest daughter of the Pei family." ”

Pei's body was shocked, and he looked at him in disbelief: "What did you say?" ”

He's going to reconcile with her?!

He's going to kick her away?!

She almost gritted her teeth: "Yao Yi, you ungrateful, villain who crosses the river and demolishes the bridge!" Why are you ...... I am the daughter of the Pei family, and my father is the head of the Pei family, why do you dare! ”

Yao Yi closed his eyes, said no more, and turned away unbearably.

Seeing his figure disappear outside the bamboo forest, the servant woman stepped forward to support the trembling Pei family: "Madam, the Qin family has just died, you shouldn't have another conflict with Lord Lang......

"Didn't you hear?" Pei's eyes were cold: "He wants to reconcile with me...... Sure enough, he was planning to get the illegitimate daughter back! He was afraid that I would be bad for him and his sweetheart's daughter! ”

"Don't think about it...... He didn't want to get it! ”

"Well, he thinks he's amazing now...... Then I have to take a good look at how much skill he has, whether he can protect that little scumbag! ”

……

Yao Yi walked out of the bamboo forest path, calmed down, and just stepped on the road paved with blue bricks, he saw a person in a general's robe walking not far ahead.

He recognized the person who came, his expression was straight, and he stepped forward: "General Changda." ”

"Yao Tingwei." Chang Kuo was a little surprised to meet this person here, raised his hand and returned the salute, his face was silent, and he scolded in his heart-

I can't even control my own mother-in-law, what kind of Dali Siqing is still doing, and I still check the eucalyptus of a fart! Pack up and go home to pick up manure!

I glanced at the other party's typical literati body - you can't win by picking dung!

"Presumably this is the Lang Jun of your mansion, right?" Yao Tingwei looked at Chang Sui'an beside Chang Kuo.

Chang Kuo's head: "It's the dog." ”

Yao Yi pondered for a moment and asked as if chatting: "Is this blessing ceremony accompanied only by your son?" ”

"That's not it, Chang Mou also has a daughter, and she is here this time." Chang Kuo said, looking at the fork in the road in front of him, and immediately smiled: "It's a coincidence, it's coming-"

Chang Suian hurriedly beckoned: "Sister, where is it!" ”

Yao Yi immediately looked over.
