All Lin'an knows that there is a little monk in Lingyin Temple, who does not avoid meat and fish, and occasionally can drink two sips of wine...... That is, this kid is only twelve years old, and his hair is not yet complete, otherwise, I am afraid that the lust ring will also be a crime.

But no one can say anything, after all, this is a favor from His Majesty the Emperor himself......

Oh my God! Since Emperor Huizong believed in Taoism, when have the disciples of our Buddha family ever been so close to the heavenly family!

Over the years, the great monks have not only been ridden on the head by Taoist priests, but those who are Confucianists and scholars are all hating the Buddha so much, if it weren't for the Tan Hao master licking his face to please those literati, he often put what "Confucianism is interpretation, interpretation is Confucianism; The monk is the layman, and the layman is the monk; Everything is holy, and holiness is everything", if these words are on their lips, I'm afraid they, the masters, will go to see the Buddha extermination again.

Speaking of which, this Tan Hao master was taken away by the emperor, but now even a monk can't do it.

So with such a figure as Daoji, it was too late for everyone to praise him, how could they dare to reprimand him.

Daoji's life has always been very happy, at least before the twelve years of Shaoxing, he was very happy.

Even if the emperor doesn't ask him to eat meat, he will eat it in the future, although Fohai is reluctant to him, he also knows that he has a deep relationship with Buddha, but when his parents handed him over to Fohai, they had already made it very clear:

"This child has a thin life, and he only wants to grow up healthily under the protection of the Buddha, and nothing else...... The Li family is such a lone seedling, and he will go back to inherit the family business after all. ”

This kind of thing is not uncommon in every temple, and Fohai also likes him tightly, so he naturally responds.

The Li family is originally everyone, and Daoji's ancestors are still related to the Zhao family! His ancestor Li Zunqiao was Renzong's concubine, and he once made a town festival envoy, which is Yue Fei's current position; His father Li Maochun was also an official in Tiantai County, but he couldn't see Qin Xiangye, so he simply resigned and went into hiding.

The family is illustrious, very accessible.

So after knowing the identity of this person, Empress Dowager Wei was still polite to him after all.

"Can you do my mother-in-law a favor?"

She tried to look kind...... But after so many years of hard life, the bitterness is a feeling that emanates from the inside out, and it is also a proof of her life in the past fifteen years.

Dao Ji looked at this strange old woman, her face was full of wrinkles, as if she had been poked by a knife and a gun, and the potholes were pitted, and no amount of powder could fill those ravines.

There is also a body of gold and silver, and when I look at it from a distance, I think I saw a bottle of Buddha statue...... After all, in Daoji's memory, in addition to the Buddha statue, how could anyone hang so much gold on his body.

Aren't you tired?

Before coming, he asked Fohai:

"Master, the Queen Mother is the mother of the official family?"

Fohai touched his bald head and said, "Yes, she is the mother of the official family, the mother of the family...... She had endured a great deal of hardship in the Northland, and she was also a poor person. ”

"If she asks you for help, if she can, you can help her, and it can be regarded as repaying the official family for your kindness."

So, although he thought she looked weird now, Dao Ji still saluted her:

"The Queen Mother has orders, and the little monk does everything."

Influenced by her own man, Empress Dowager Wei only believes in Taoism and does not believe in Buddhism, but at this moment, seeing him look small, but he made such a gesture, he still can't help laughing.

"Then thank you, little master......"

Speaking, without too much nonsense, she and a few palace maids and maids took Xiao Daoji to the door of the inner palace.

Looking at that door, the queen mother was angry!

Don't talk about anything else, even if the official family really gave an order not to allow others to enter, then the people in you don't know to come out?!

The common people still have to go to meet the elders during the New Year, why is it not as good as the royal family?

I really don't even have half a rule...... Since a few of you are delicate and refuse to come out, then this palace will come to pay you New Year's greetings, it's finally done, right?!

Empress Dowager Wei is now like a resentful woman, a resentful woman whose son married a daughter-in-law and forgot her mother, the inner palace door is a lock in her heart, if she can't unlock it, even if she dies, she probably can't turn a blind eye.

"Do you see that door...... I heard that in the past, Brother Jiu'er often took you in, and you also lived in it for a long time. ”

Knowing that the 'ninth brother' in her mouth was the official family, Dao Ji did not hide it at all:

"Yes, the little monk has gone in, not only has he been in, but the princess is very good to the little monk."

Empress Dowager Wei already knew who was inside, and when she heard the little monk mention it at this moment, the anger in her heart suddenly rushed up:

"Since this is the case, then you can help your mother-in-law go again, go to see that kind of lady, and help your mother-in-law ask her."

"What does the Queen Mother want the little monk to ask?"

"Ask her, the palace is not dead yet, is she thinking about ruling the inner palace?"

Although Dao Ji didn't know why the Queen Mother didn't ask in person, since he had promised her, there was no reason to regret it.

And the master often says cause and effect, he has already formed a cause with the queen mother, so he has to have the effect.

Thinking of this, he clasped his hands together again and made a Buddhist salute to the Queen Mother:

"Then the little monk went."

After saying that, he walked towards the inner palace gate.

Although the door was closed and there were some soldiers in front of him, he had been with the emperor for several months, and he was not as afraid of these people as ordinary people, but was a little ...... Cordial.

The person is small, the steps are small, he wants to run over, and he thinks that he must not lose his demeanor in front of the Queen Mother, so he still walks upright, and when he reaches the place where there are ten zhang in front of the inner palace, he stopped.

At his feet, too, was a crossbow bolt.

No matter how calm his mind is, he is only a child in his early tens, if he is not afraid, it must be false, if he takes a step faster just now, the crossbow arrow can be shot directly at his body.

It was only at this time that Dao Ji understood why the Queen Mother herself was reluctant to come.

He silently recited Amitabha Buddha in his heart, and looked back a little helplessly, but saw that the Queen Mother seemed to be a different person, and the gentleness of the twisting jaw that he had worked hard to come out was gone, but like a Shura pretending to be a Buddha.

It's apathetic.

Perhaps it was the first time I saw a monk here, and it was a young child, when one of the ironclad soldiers shouted:

"The inner palace is important, no one is allowed to enter, the little monk leaves quickly, don't cause trouble!"

One step forward will cost you your life, one step back...... is to break the promise, whether it is forward or backward, Dao Ji is unwilling.

He just stood where he was, and in such a cold day, sweat was oozing from his forehead.

"Queen Mother, he stopped."

The words of the palace maid next to her came, and Empress Dowager Wei was not blind, so she naturally saw it.

What she hopes most is that the standards of the people inside are not uniform, and the little monk is allowed to enter, but he is not allowed to enter by himself, so that he will have a reason in front of his own son at that time.

Take 10,000 steps back and say, even if those martial artists shoot this little monk to death outside the gate of the inner palace, this is also a human life, and it is also a child that Brother Jiu'er likes, and he will have more reasons to complain at that time.

And the last thing I want to see is the current scene.

They also stopped the little monk outside, in this way, they did what the emperor said, even if the ninth brother wanted to be harsh, he had to remember their loyalty and tie his hands and feet.

"Little master, you must help your mother-in-law ask, ask clearly, ask for understanding!"

The voice of the Queen Mother came from behind him, and Dao Ji's hand holding the rosary was already pale, and his mind was in turmoil.

I don't know how long it took to struggle, but the little monk continued to take a step forward.

He only took a step, but before his back foot could catch up, there was more than an arrow stuck in front of him, and the dense arrows separated him from the road ahead.

Amitabha......

The official family said that life comes first, and if the monk doesn't help, he really can't help.

Thinking so, he turned around and came back and made a gesture towards the Queen Mother, his little face full of great apologies.

Empress Dowager Wei completely returned to her original appearance, although she was expressionless, but she was real, like the face of a dead man.

Daoji lowered his head and didn't dare to look at her again.

It is said that the first salute and then the soldiers, although the Empress Dowager Wei was born as a maidservant, but now she is also the real queen mother, and the mother was expensive by virtue of her son, and the Emperor Huizong, who had never looked at her with his eyes in his life, finally recognized her name as the queen after her ninth brother ascended the throne.

All in all, Empress Dowager Wei is a particular person, at least she thinks so.

Gently patting his palm, the forbidden army, who had been waiting on the edge of the Qingyan Hall for a long time, escorted a group of people through the palace gate and came to the outside of the courtyard wall of the inner palace.

These people were all gagged, and although they didn't say a word, Dao Ji saw his face clearly and stopped his steps abruptly.

"Daddy...... Mother! ”

It stands to reason that he is still an outsider, whether it is Li Maochun or Mrs. Li, he should be called a 'donor'.

But the parents of the body and skin, Li Maochun has accumulated virtue and done good deeds for many years, and he is called Li Shanren by the neighbors, even if he is a big traitor, Fohai knows that Daoji will eventually reunite with them.

He often talked to him about his parents, and never refused to sever his connection with the world.

After all, he was only twelve years old, and Dao Ji was taught well by Fohai, and he never resented his father and mother for sending him to Buddhism, and he missed them very much like all children of this age in the world.

He thought about it again and again, but he didn't expect that when he met them again, it would be in such a scene.

"The Queen Mother's ......"

Tears soon appeared in the eyes of the little monk, no matter how stupid he was, he also knew what this official mother meant at this time.

Seeing his father and mother kneeling on the ground, and the knife on his neck was also framed, he had no other way, and his first reaction was to look at the queen mother for help.

"Little Master! Mother-in-law specially brought your family to reunite with you! As long as you help your mother-in-law pass the word, your family will be together in no time! ”

The Queen Mother was still expressionless, and she was wearing a long jacket with red piping in the New Year, which was clearly a rare warm color in this snow-white Lin'an, but at this time, Dao Ji only felt that she was extremely cold.

Li Maochun only had this son at the age of forty, and no one in the world felt more sorry for Daoji than him, although he didn't know what the Queen Mother wanted Daoji to do at the moment, but seeing the dense arrows behind his son, he knew that it was definitely not a good thing.

He just struggled hard to stand up, but he was pressed by the forbidden army behind him, and he couldn't speak, except for the green tendons that burst out of his neck, which showed his excitement at this time.

Dao Ji turned his head after all, he had no other choice, and the emperor's mother did not give him any other choice.

He just didn't quite understand why it was the way it was.

Taking a deep breath, he took a step forward...... The 'click' sound of the ironclad soldier loading the crossbow arrow on the bow of the god arm was unusually harsh at this time.

"Little monk, hurry back! Don't lose your life innocently! ”

They are soldiers of the Great Song Dynasty, so they naturally take the emperor's order as the first, although they are a little unbearable to this child at this time, but the verbal threats are definitely not only threats.

Dao Ji goes one step further, they really know how to shoot arrows.

Seeing that he started to leave again, Empress Dowager Wei was very satisfied with Daoji's performance, she looked at Li Maochun next to her who seemed to be about to breathe fire, and said with some regret:

"Li Yuanwai is so blessed to have such an obedient and filial son."

"It's like this palace, separated from his son for so many years, even if he wants to see it, he can't see it."

"Don't worry too much, he's just going to help the palace run errands, and when it's done, your family will be reunited."

To be honest, she had to admit that she was indeed a little jealous.

The jealous family staged a father-son, mother-son relationship in front of him.

Nine Brothers...... You are not allowed to treat me slowly, treat your mother slowly!

"Monk, stop!"

Dao Ji didn't dare to look at it anymore, he didn't know what the concept of death was, but he thought that he had eaten so much meat and drunk so many times last year, thinking that even if he died, he would no longer be able to become a Buddha.

If you can't become a Buddha, you can only go to hell, maybe you will become a sheep or a cow, and you will be slaughtered and made into a good dish.

The farther and farther his thoughts drifted, and even the person holding the crossbow bolt in front of him didn't seem so afraid.

And at this time, in the inner palace gate, the rain and the wind were already noisy.

"What is the relationship between the little master of Daoji and the official family, you don't know! If something really happens, how should you explain it to the officials! ”

"I am the commander of the Imperial City Division, and I received an order from the official family that no one is allowed to put it in, otherwise, ...... Regardless of killing, if Daoji is let in, how should I explain it to the officials?! ”

Chong Yu looked at this somewhat strange brother:

"You're foolish! I don't know how to work! If you do this, when the official family starts a fire, you will still be the one who suffers! ”

Hearing her sister comment on herself, Chongfeng laughed instead:

"The official family also said the same thing about the old man, I can't be a hero like him, it's worth it to be a little similar to him."

The 'old man' in his mouth is naturally the middle of the plant, and he didn't expect that at this time, he still had the heart to say these words, he was angry and angry, and he couldn't wait to slap him in the face.

But she forcibly suppressed her temper...... She is not alone now, and the emperor's efforts before leaving Lin'an have finally paid off.

Chongfeng also knew about this, so he put away his smile and looked at her seriously:

"Why did the Queen Mother force Daoji in, have you ever thought about it?"

"If Dao Ji really came in, then when the Imperial City Division carried out His Majesty's order, it did not treat everyone equally, and even favored one over the other, and the thin one was still the current Queen Mother, do you think that if the official family comes back and she goes to file a complaint, how will the official family treat me?"

"Don't say it's coming in, if Dao Ji insists on coming forward, but in the end he is safe and sound, this matter will not be over."

When filial piety is the most important thing today, who doesn't know about this?

Especially when Qin Hui was killed, the official family was in the name of avenging her parents, and now that the Queen Mother is really back, the emperor treats her as well as others, if this matter spreads......

Where is the Zhao Guan's house located?

Where does the word 'filial piety' stand?

Chongyu is not a fool, but she and Daoji have known each other for a long time, and like the emperor, they all like this child.

If he really had an accident, let alone the emperor, even if it was herself, she wouldn't be able to get by.

"But the Queen Mother tied up his parents! He had no other choice! ”

"I don't have any other choice......"

It's only been out for a few months, but it seems to have matured a lot, as if it was a different person.

"Sister...... These are troubled times, you and I both know it. ”

Not only do they know, but they have been on the front line of the anti-gold struggle all year round, and they know better than others.

"Yes, Lin'an is prosperous, but out of the Huai River, there are bones everywhere, graves that stretch for miles, and countless hard-working people, hard-working people who are more bitter than the farmer...... In troubled times, people will die. ”

"I don't want anything to happen to Daoji, but I can't mess with the overall situation of the official family...... Jin Ren sent the queen mother back, even if she is excessive, the official family can't do anything to her, because she is the mother of the official family, and because in the eyes of the world, the official family is a filial son, this image cannot be broken, at least not in my hands. ”

"So treat Daoji, my brother can't be soft, who called before, I have already said cruel words in front of the Queen Mother......"

Chong Yu knew that she couldn't persuade him, so she just folded her hands together and silently recited the Heart Sutra that Dao Ji taught her.

And the little monk ...... He only felt that he had walked a long way, with his eyes closed, but he didn't know how far away he was from the inner palace gate, he had thought about it a lot, but he felt that he had no regrets in this life.

I just remembered that the official family said at that time that they would break their own color rings...... He'd tasted the meat, it tasted good, and he didn't know what the color ring was.

The leading ironclad army is also struggling, he really hopes that the commander can come out now, come out to stop him, but wait and wait, seeing that the little monk is almost in front of this door, but there is not even the slightest reaction behind the door.

That's it......

It's a pity, but a military order is a military order.

He raised his hand slightly, and as soon as he put it down, the crossbow arrows would all shoot towards Daoji...... In just an instant, this little monk can die so far.

"Shoot the neck and give him a hard time."

It was the only thing he could do for Daoji......

Empress Dowager Wei looked at Li Maochun on the side, and suddenly had some other thoughts.

I don't know if I've been in Jinguo for a long time and have seen more tricks...... For example, the concubines of the harem went to Jinying to pour wine topless, and the two emperors had to laugh and agree; Another example is that the pregnant Empress Xing was forced to ride a horse, and finally the fetus was picked out......

All in all, her heart has become a little twisted.

Li Yuanwai...... Mrs. Li, I am also a mother, and I can't see parents like this. ”

"Otherwise, you can go with the little master."

As she spoke, she waved her hand, and the forbidden army holding the two of them immediately stood back, never holding the two of them again.

Without the restraint of others, Li Maochun, who had been struggling, finally stood up...... He untied the strip of cloth that bound his mouth and rushed towards Daoji.

This person who is over half a hundred years old, this person with gray temples, seems to have great potential at this time, and he can run faster than many young people.

Dao Ji has traveled for a long time, and he quickly catches up.

"Repair the fate!"

The little monk hadn't heard his layman's real name for a long time, and he only felt as if he had been taken into his arms...... It's warm and familiar.

"Repair...... My son. ”

Dao Ji only felt that this embrace was trembling uncontrollably, and he finally opened his eyes, and it was his father who was in front of him.

"Daddy!"

Children are like that...... For parents, they have a lot, wealth, fame, status, but for children, the only thing he has is his parents.

A great sense of security came, and Dao Ji shouted at him many times, and Li Maochun, who was pale, couldn't stop laughing, patting his back and touching his head.

And Mrs. Li, although it was a little slower, but she still arrived after all.

Dao Ji looked at the tears in her eyes and hurriedly comforted:

"Mother, I'm fine! You see, I don't have anything! ”

He spun around in place, exposing his small body completely in front of the two of them.

"It's okay, it's okay."

"By the way, I'm still following Master!"

As if remembering something important, Dao Ji stood up again, folded his hands and said:

"Master Li, Wanfu, Mrs. Li, Wanfu."

With such a look, there should be few people in the world who can hold it.

Li Maochun's smile never stopped, he looked at Dao Ji, and finally spoke:

"You go forward, the Queen Mother's busy father and mother are here to help, I don't need your help."

"No, this is what the little monk promised the Queen Mother."

Dao Ji knew what was ahead, and of course he didn't want his father and mother to take risks.

But Li Maochun suddenly became anxious: "Go back quickly!" ”

As soon as he opened his mouth, he couldn't hold it anymore and vomited a lot of blood.

"Dad, you're ......"

His father fell forward, and the whole person lay in front of Daoji, and it was only at this time that the little monk saw the arrow stuck in his back.

"Daddy......"

Dao Ji suddenly panicked, he held his father's head, and kept wiping the blood from his mouth with his little hands, as if as long as he wiped it off, his father would be fine.

But the blood, no matter how much you wipe it, you can't wipe it out, Li Maochun stretched out his hand and touched his face:

"Xiuyuan, you have to ...... Peace, ...... Healthy...... To ......"

What else is going on, he can't say.

Dao Chai ...... Li Xiuyuan seemed to have forgotten to even shed tears, he was just a little dazed, and kept repeating to wipe the blood from the corner of Li Maochun's mouth, and even Mrs. Li, who had been crying next to him, was lying on his father's back, and he didn't seem to notice it.

She was also hit by an arrow, but she was afraid that Daoji would see it, so she pulled it out.

Right now...... Like Li Maochun, she couldn't help it.

"When contemplating the bodhisattva of self-reliance, when he walks in the deep prajnaparamita, he sees that the five aggregates are empty, and he overcomes all suffering...... According to Prajnaparamita, the mind is unhindered. There is no obstacle, there is no terror, far from the upside-down dream, the ...... nirvana"

Chong Yu memorized this Heart Sutra over and over again, she didn't even know what it meant, but she didn't miss a word, she remembered to understand.

Finally, she stopped, and when she looked up again, her face was already full of tears.

She couldn't care about anything else, she pressed the phoenix hairpin on her head against her throat, forcing others to open the door of the inner palace, she looked at Dao Ji not far away, and walked towards him slowly, but extremely firmly.

Empress Dowager Wei saw it clearly, and finally laughed, laughing so much that the flowers and branches trembled, and the powder on her face kept falling, dissolving with the white of Lin'an.

Listening to the bells in the palace again, it turned out that the banquet prepared by the Holy Emperor of Xiaociyuan for the ministers had already begun.
