Chapter 228: Desire to eliminate evil for the sage (1)
In the early morning, I had returned to Huguo Temple, walked into the Puxian Hall amid the ethereal and distant sound of Buddha drums, and chanted the sutra quietly and religiously. The heaviest stone in the heart has been put down, and only when Xiuhe takes out the account book, the Liu family's affairs will be more assured.
After reciting the sutras for a day, my heart calmed down, the worries in my heart disappeared a bit, and I slept well at night. I woke up in the early morning the next day and had to go back to the palace after breakfast.
Puji sent me out of the monastery. I just thanked him. He smiled kindly and handed a scripture in front of me, and said softly: "The shadow in my heart should not last for long. If it lasts for a long time, it will be lingering. Go. In this world, there are too many helpless things, too many helpless people, too many helpless hearts, just right and wrong, but you have to be right and right."
I looked up at him, and Qinghe's eyes were full of compassion. The corners of his eyes were sore, and his heart was tumbling. Once again, I thanked him again and again. He took the scripture with both hands and smiled elegantly: "Thank you, Master."
"Amitabha Buddha", Abbot Puji laughed: "The donor is good."
The carriage "rolled" forward, and suddenly stopped ten miles outside the capital.
Hui Ju lightly opened the door curtain: "What happened?"
I kept looking down at the scripture, and Puji also gifted me three scented wax, in the shape of a lotus flower, which I held in my hand like a jade fragrance, soft and smooth. When he was feeling the boundlessness of Buddhism, Hui Ju whispered: "Niang, the emperor is here."
I put down the objects in my hand, sorted out my emotions and expressions, and got out of the carriage. I saw Shen Xiyao riding on a white horse, full of vigor and bravery. He was dressed in white and fluttered like an immortal, with Xu Zhengyuan beside him, riding a black horse in black, his expression as serious as ever.
I got out of the carriage, leaned slightly and smiled and asked, "Why is the emperor here?"
Shen Xiyao did not answer, but looked at me with a smile, with tenderness in his eyes. He stretched out a hand to me, and I held it without hesitation, and as soon as he tried hard, I was taken to the horseback. There was a wild beating in his heart, and he looked at him pretending to be angrily. He laughed "hehe", squeezed his horse's belly, and the horse screamed and turned towards the capital.
I was shocked in my heart, so I would return to Beijing from Huangjiacun on the same day to ride with him. Thinking of all the things back then, I couldn't help but sweat. Although I knew that this time was different from the past, the fear in my heart still filled up.
"The emperor, Huiju is still there?" Before I finished my words, Shen Xiyao lowered his head and kissed me softly, "I think you want to do a lot, and I just want to see you sooner. This is here."
Suddenly, I was full of emotions. It seemed to drink honey, but it made me sad. I forcibly resisted the tears in the corners of my eyes to keep it from flowing, and the worries in my heart disappeared, leaving only sweetness and joy.
Xu Zhengyuan followed closely, and Hui Ju rode another horse behind him, and smiled at me.
The horse slowed down and walked on the forest path like a stroll in the garden. The sun was warm and the breeze drove away the heat, making people feel as comfortable as drinking ice water.
"It's been a long time since I've been out of the palace. Will Wei Er be willing to visit the scenery of the capital with me?" Shen Xiyao lowered his head and asked me.
I was worried about Xuan'er, but I didn't want to stir his interest, so I was a little embarrassed for a while.
Seeing my worries, Shen Xiyao pretended to be aggrieved: "Sure enough, if a woman has a child, she doesn't want a husband."
"The emperor!" I groaned, "Xuan'er is sick?"
"He was healed when I came out. Zhang Dehai and Zhilan are taking care of him, so there must be no problem." Shen Xiyao gently stroked my hair, "Don't worry about it."
My heart fell halfway and gave him a bright smile: "Then Mr. Lau Fu."
Shen Xiyao was taken aback, "haha" laughed, "Does the lady want to go?"
"Just stroll around. As long as you are walking with your husband, everything is beautiful." I smiled sweetly and met his gaze.
Sure enough, he was very helpful to his words, and he deposited the horse in the inn on South Street and strolled with me hand in hand.
Huiju and Xu Zhengyuan followed, the former looking around with excitement, and the latter with a serious look around them. I only held Shen Xiyao's arm and gave him gossip everywhere, very happy.
When Hua Deng first started, the four of us came to Juxian Pavilion, the most prestigious restaurant in Beijing. Shen Xiyao looked at the three-story restaurant in front of him and said to me: "This restaurant tastes very good. Let's have dinner here."
I smiled coquettishly: "Du Yifujun."
At this time, Juxian Pavilion was full of guests, and there was no room for it. A Xiao Er came out and smiled apologetically at us: "Several guest officials are really embarrassed, there are no seats available at this time. If a few are willing, there will be some tea and melon seeds."
I looked at the hall, and saw the crowds inside, the sound of cups and saucers was endless. Because I didn't know how long to wait, and thinking about Xuan'er, I gently pulled Shen Xiyao's sleeve and whispered: "Would you like to change the house?"
Shen Xiyao held my hand and asked Xiao Er with a smile: "Are there private rooms?"
Xiao Er shook his head: "Private rooms have been booked three days earlier." He scratched his head and said: "Wait a few people, a few tables are almost finished, it won't be long."
Shen Xiyao nodded, took me to sit in the waiting area, and personally poured a cup of tea and handed it to me, explaining: "The pigeon eggs in the Juxian Pavilion are truly unique in the world. They are out today. It's a pity not to taste it. ."
I hid my mouth and smiled and said, "Dove eggs? Does the cook at home know how to make them?" Looking up at Shen Xiyao, there was a child-like stubborn look on his face.
He shook his head, with a hint of contempt: "It's not that smell at all, it's far from it."
I joked: "My husband said this, if Mr. Zhang heard it, I was afraid that he would change the cook."
Shen Xiyao's face was a relaxed color that Su Ri couldn't see. He "haha" smiled and said, "That's why I didn't bring him out. Sometimes it was too long-winded."
Huiju and Xu Zhengyuan, who stood behind them, smiled stiffly and endured very hard.
As we were talking, we saw a table of guests waiting to check out by the window, and Xiao Er asked us over with a smile on his face. Shen Xiyao took my hand and looked yearning.
Unexpectedly, when we were just about to sit down, the two men in Jinyi pushed Shen Xiyao away first, and sat on the chairs without looking at us, as if nothing happened, they started talking and laughing.
I was surprised to see Shen Xiyao's face, and saw his face as usual, but there was discomfort surging between his brows. Xu Zhengyuan stepped forward and said to the two men: "Two sons, this position should belong to my son."
The two raised their eyes and swept over Xu Zhengyuan arrogantly. One of them was wearing a rust red sprinkled gold satin robe, and the rogue said: "You call this chair, it will answer you and you are yours." After that, "haha" laughed. It's very rude to get up.
The other man wore a silver-grey group blessing brocade robe, with a cunning look on his face, pretending to be polite and patted the man's arm, but didn't look at us, just looked at the cowering mistress: "Mistress, you say Who owns this position?"
The little second looked at us and then at them, very embarrassed not to speak.
I understood in my heart that we dare to meet Street Fighter. I don’t want to do more entanglement to cause meaningless right and wrong. I was about to pull Shen Xiyao away. I saw Xiao Er arched his hands towards the two and said to us: "A few guest officials, there is also a table over there to settle accounts, it is better to go there. Well, the scenery is just as good."
"Obviously we will arrive first, so why give them?" Xu Zhengyuan said dissatisfied. His voice was loud, and he had the aura of a general, which attracted everyone's attention for a while.
Xiao Er wiped the cold sweat on his forehead, and whispered to Shen Xiyao: "Don't hide from the guest officer, we can't afford these two people."
Xu Zhengyuan angrily said: "They can't afford to provoke, do we think they can afford it?"
The small twenty is divided into difficulties, but the two at the table seem to have never seen them, just chatting on their own, and talking about vulgar things, without putting people in their eyes.
Shen Xiyao raised his hand, Xu Zhengyuan stopped talking. He smiled slightly, but his eyes were as cold as an iceberg: "This is your way of hospitality in Juxianlou?" He said to the two people: "Everything pays attention to first come first, you two do it, I'm afraid it's improper."
The two "Huo" had to stand up, and the man in the rusty red robe roared, "What comes first, then comes later. I will be in this position today. What can you do to me?"
Shen Xiyao shook his head: "I can't do anything to you." His tone seemed helpless, but I could hear the danger underneath.
"Haha, that's it, don't hurry up!" The man knocked the seeds and spit out the skin of the seeds to Shen Xiyao's feet.
I saw Shen Xiyao's face stunned, and the emperor who had been suppressing his majesty showed some beards. The man was horrified, as if to embolden himself, he spit out again, and it touched the corner of Shen Xiyao's robe.
Shen Xiyao was born as an emperor. When did he receive such insults and was about to attack, Xu Zhengyuan was about to draw out his sword and was held by Shen Xiyao.
"Oh, I have to draw the sword!" The man in the silver-gray robe turned pale, but he still said stiffly: "Do you know what the crime is for walking with the sword at the feet of the emperor? Xiao Er, boss, quickly send these people to the official office! "
Xu Zhengyuan said gruffly: "Since I dare to walk with a sword, he is naturally allowed!"
The two were stunned. Only the generals who are responsible for the safety of Gyeonggi and have a rank 5 or above can use swords. They looked at Xu Zhengyuan and Shen Xiyao, who had been smiling faintly. They exchanged glances. The man in the rusty red robe coughed. He said: "Huh, what then?" After saying that, he ignored us.
Xiao Er came over to pull us, almost begging: "Guest, there is a private room upstairs that is vacant, please let us please."
I think Shen Xiyao shouldn't want to make matters worse, so he said: "My husband, my concubine is a little tired, let's go."
Shen Xiyao glanced at me with concern and understood what I meant. It's just that, after all, he is in his prime, just when he is full of spirits, he is also the emperor supreme, when he has suffered such idleness, and how can he easily calm his unhappiness. But when he saw my pleading look, he took my hand tightly, suppressed his anger, and raised his foot to walk upstairs.
It was all right now. I didn’t want the two of them to see us compromise, thinking that we were subdued, and couldn’t help laughing "haha". The rusty red robe man cast a contemptuous look at us and happened to see me who had been hiding behind Shen Xiyao. , Suddenly showing a stunning look, stood up and pulled my sleeve.
I was taken aback and almost screamed. Shen Xiyao turned his head, his gaze fell on that hand, as if a sharp sword shot out of his eyes, and the hand was cut off in the next instant.
"Remove your dirty hands!" His displeasure was obvious, and the emperor's natural unangered and mighty power was revealed, which was frightening.
The two looked at each other, and naturally let go of their hands, but the frivolous words came up again: "This little lady is so beautiful, it is better to follow us, wear gold and silver, eat fragrant and spicy food, no one in this capital dare to bully. You, save yourself from being wronged like this, haha!"
I was full of anger and anger. Shen Xiyao finally couldn't bear it and was about to step forward. Xu Zhengyuan even pulled out his sword.
Seeing that a fight is inevitable, I'm not afraid that Shen Xiyao will suffer. The two people in front of me are puffy, and they look like lazy people. I'm afraid Xu Zhengyuan will be able to subdue it all at once. I just don't want to make trouble, it would be bad if I expose my identity.
Just about to hold Shen Xiyao, I saw someone abruptly stepped in, stopped and hugged Shen Xiyao, with a look of horror: "The son calms down his anger, the son calms down, if you have something to say!"
Shen Xiyao threw an ingot of gold and smashed it on the table: "Don't worry, the shop is broken, and my son will build a new building for you as it is!" He said that he had to push Xiao Er and go forward.
