Priceless: A widow with a baby asks the prince to marry again
Chapter 160 Your Dynasty's Destruction Is Not Unfair
I listened quietly to the old man's angry curse until it gradually stopped.
"But I think that in this matter, God is very fair. God will not continue a dynasty that has run out of luck just because of the unwillingness of a few individuals."
Chu Shiyu said calmly: "The whole court is full of arrogant people. You have a far-sighted prince, but you want to abolish him and trap you in a Taoist temple. It is not unfair that your dynasty was destroyed."
The old man looked at the young man in front of him in silence. He could hear the meaning of comfort, but how could his lack of recognition compare to the pain of his country being destroyed and his family being ruined...
Ruifeng's eyes flickered, and then he added: "If you are not the last crown prince, you will be the deposed crown prince. Your father has no eyes to recognize gold and jade, but without his support, you can't fight against the decadent trend of decay and decline."
"Looking back now, my father was also constrained by various factors. Chu Yuan saw the opportunity to fight internally and suddenly sent troops to attack everyone by surprise. However, when the country was in crisis, some parties stood by and watched, while others even took advantage of the situation and divided up the territory."
The old man sighed softly: "The various kings in the tribe have long been independent and refused to obey the order. The current Tatars are the continuation of my uncle's rule in the north, but now they have also replaced the original with the new one."
Chu Shiyu suddenly realized, "So what you mean is that the Tatars are now your enemies, not your friends?"
"Neither a friend nor an enemy. Decades have passed, times have changed, and I have come to understand that I am just a mortal. I cannot save a collapsing building, nor can I stop the general trend of the world..." the old man sighed.
Chu Shiyu suddenly understood the Taoist's intention. This tortuous story was meant to tell him that the prince named Boerzhijin Seriguleng had indeed sacrificed his life for the previous dynasty, but fate could not be changed, and everything had been settled...
"I have investigated the Baitian Temple. It was first known to the public more than 20 years ago. At that time, the Taoist temple on the mountain was still a thatched hut. Later, pilgrims saw that the hut was dilapidated, so they spontaneously built two small houses for you as a Taoist temple..."
Chu Shiyu stated: "As far as is known, you have not been outside the five-mile radius for more than 20 years. The farthest you have been is to the surrounding villages to exchange some oil, salt and sundries."
"That's a good place to observe the sky. There are fifty great ways, forty-nine of which are derived from the heavens, and one of which is hidden by humans. That place happens to coincide with the great ways, and it is the place where the mysteries of heaven converge."
The old Taoist shook his head and smiled, "Escape from the world, sit in the mountains and watch the changes of the heavens. People say that a bystander sees more clearly. Now that I have become a monk and put aside worldly affairs, I can see things clearly all of a sudden."
"The real Seriguleng died in the fire fifty-four years ago...The one who survived as promised by God was the master of Baitian Temple, who lost his name and was obsessed with observing the sky."
Chu Shiyu believed in his heart that the old Taoist was devoted to Taoism, but national affairs should not be taken lightly. The Oirat and Tatars were currently the biggest threats to Daxia, far beyond the reach of the small countries in the southwest. The situation in the north was a matter of great concern, so he needed to think it over again and again.
"But you left Baitian Temple more than a year ago and have been elusive ever since. Your whereabouts are unknown... Now that you come to the Daxia Palace and bring up the Tatars, you are in stark contrast to your previous state of not caring about worldly affairs."
"I thought I had seen through the world and severed the cause and effect..."
The old man was slightly startled, and murmured softly: "But after all, humans are not plants..."
On the thin face, the clear eyes became dazed again...
The dim light that shone on the boy ten years ago seemed to transcend time, and it was indistinguishable from the dawn light at this moment...
There were three striking claw marks on the boy's face...
On the boy’s forehead, and on his knees, which were exposed due to the rips on his pants, there was dirt mixed with blood…
Although he still had the appearance of a teenager, he was tall and strong, which was rare among the natives of the southwest...
But even without these characteristics, when his eyes, which were immersed in observing the sky, saw the boy, he knew that this was his karma...
The boy said that he wanted to ask God to leave him a relative...
The boy didn’t know that for more than 40 years, he had also been praying to God to leave him a relative…
Is it ridiculous to attribute the fate of a country to five drawbacks and three deficiencies?
But the country was destroyed and his family was ruined, and the regret from the bottom of his heart never let him go! If he had not interfered and suppressed, if he had not thought he could change the fate of the country, if...
But there is no if! In the real fate, his home and country died a full ten years earlier!
His nightmare is no longer the vegetable market...
But what was lost was irreversible, and all his regrets and remorse were placed on his last blood relative...
For things that matter to them, people would rather believe that they are real. If they cut off the relationship and no longer communicate with each other, the cause and effect will be cut off. Even if there are the so-called five disadvantages and three shortcomings, it will not affect them. This is why people become monks and what does it mean to be a monk...
He deliberately ignored her, never met her in the past few decades, and never read her fortune...
But when the boy appeared before him, the scar on his face told him about his past. The person he wanted to stay with was no longer there...
Things are unpredictable, how can an accident be attributed to five disadvantages and three deficiencies? But the pain in my heart is so clear.
The boy didn't know that when he looked at the boy, the boy's fate was slowly unfolding in his eyes...
The boy will die on March 3, nine years from now, which is the 49th day of the lunar calendar…
What is destined cannot be changed.
But after seeing it, how can I remain indifferent?
Destined... or want to change...
It was the first time that someone stayed overnight at the Baitian Temple on the hill. That night, he calculated again and again. He was no longer the ignorant prince who tried to change the fate of the country with his half-baked knowledge, but he still did not see a glimmer of hope...
When his heart was broken, he found an erratic variable, which still did not bring him life, but it could make the rest of his life no longer lonely and helpless...
The old Taoist raised his eyes and looked at Chu Shiyu.
At that time he also saw that the so-called variable was the true fate of this boy from the Chu family.
True fate is also destined by heaven, but unlike life and death, the time of meeting is not predetermined by heaven. The Chu family has taken all the good things in the world, and helped their family members to grab it. At that time, he just felt it was just right.
And now, he did not feel the slightest bit of guilt, because this kid from the Chu family was also destined to die young.
It was also difficult to change life and death, but when he met his destiny at the moment of life and death, the two destiny collided and a glimmer of hope appeared. He helped Qin Lie to win the destiny, which was equivalent to extending the life of this kid from the Chu family...
"Every word I said at the banquet is true. Your match with Liu is a sign of prosperity for Daxia, and the current dispute with the Tatars is just the beginning." The old Taoist said sincerely.
Chu Shiyu frowned and asked, "Can't you tell me the details first?"
The old Taoist shook his head and laughed, "The secret of heaven cannot be revealed. Although I have decided to tell it, there is still a difference between saying it once and saying it twice. I am already old, and I have to use my life frugally."
Knowing that the old Taoist didn't want to say more, Chu Shiyu didn't force him anymore. He glanced at the already slightly bright sky, stood up and said softly: "Someone will come to call us to the imperial study later, you take a rest for a while."
The old Taoist waved his hand calmly and lay down on the couch.
It was another sleepless night, and Chu Shiyu felt a little tired, so he went to the master bedroom in the yard to rest.
He didn't notice that after a while, another tall and burly figure entered the side room where the Taoist priest was housed...
