go away!Don't attack me!

The Dharma conference was held in the largest temple in the capital, "Huangjue Temple", and it lasted for ten days. Every morning, eminent monks gave lectures, and in the afternoon, debates were held. On the last day, there was a discussion on the Mingjing Temple.

Although Yun Qi is a half-Buddhist disciple, he is not a monk. Lectures and debates have nothing to do with him. It's just that as a national teacher, such a grand event of Taoism cannot be ignored. On the first day, no matter what, he has to show his face.

Those who also need to show their faces are Emperor Qian and many princes and ministers, which can be regarded as giving enough face to the Buddhist sects of the world.

It was the fourth prince Liu Qin, an old acquaintance, who arranged the specific affairs during the period. After all, he was the one who took over the monks at Kudu Temple, so it was a bit of a passion, but the sixth prince Liu Yue did not get involved this time. Instead, it was the eldest prince. Liu Jun, led hundreds of imperial troops stationed in Huangjue Temple, responsible for guarding the safety.

Although Yun Qi, the Great Monk and Pu Hong started from Kudu Temple together, they parted ways when they reached the gate of the city. The Great Monk and Pu Hong went directly to Huangjue Temple to participate in the Buddhist meeting, while Yun Qi first went to join Emperor Qian and the others. , After the monks who participated in the Buddhist meeting lined up for the welcome, they entered the temple with great momentum.

In Huangjue Temple, hundreds of eminent monks stood on both sides, Yun Qi and Emperor Qian walked side by side, followed by the princes and ministers - it's not that Yun Qi's status as a national teacher is really so high, it's just that in this situation On special occasions, the status of the national teacher can be raised as high as possible.

Emperor Qian and the others were worried that Yun Qi was too young to be able to control the scene, but now it seems that it is a bit redundant.

Yun Qi was still dressed in a complicated long robe, with large sleeves and a ribbon.

The young man's gestures are elegant and dusty, coupled with that beautiful face, a pair of clear and quiet eyes, his eyebrows are lowered, he looks like a Buddha descending to the world, pure and immaculate and majestic, he is the Qiandi walking in a dragon robe On the side, there is no sign of weakness.

I have to say that, in terms of looks alone, our newly-released Master National Teacher is really good at selling.

In addition to holding a posture for people to visit and admire, Yunqi actually has no specific role today.

Most of the functions of those who walked with him were similar to his, just to support the scene and make up the number of people.

After all the cutscenes were finally over, Emperor Qian announced the official start of the Dharma Conference after his speech.

The first lecturer was naturally No. 1 in Buddhism, Master Duhai.

Yun Qi sat on the futon, closed his eyes and thought about it, trying to distract himself—no way, every time he heard the monks chanting, he wanted to sleep, especially the great monk, who could neither sing nor tell stories. If he is willing to sleep, the great monk will read the scriptures to him, and he will feel sleepy as soon as he listens to it.

No, I can't hold it anymore!

Yun Qi yawned indistinctly, not daring to look back to see if he was noticed, so he had an idea and began to practice Buddhist mudra.

I don’t know if it’s just an illusion, but practicing mudras while the great monk is lecturing seems to be very efficient, probably because listening to his lecturing makes it easier...uh, to enter samadhi?

I don't know how long it took, Yun Qi opened his eyes, but saw that the stage was empty, the great monk was looking at him with a smile on his side, and the eyes of all the eminent monks around him were also focused on him, with joy and joy in their eyes. With a look of admiration, Emperor Qian, who was originally sitting beside him, had a complicated expression.

"The master of the state teacher is born with spiritual wisdom and profound cultivation. The poor monk respects... Amitabha."

"Amitabha!"

"Amitabha……"

Yun Qi was confused, he really didn't know what he had done, but he also knew not to show timidity, he returned the salute with one hand, smiled and said nothing.

Fortunately, another eminent monk came to the stage at this moment, everyone's attention was shifted to the stage, Emperor Qian patted Yunqi's shoulder lightly, and said: "Master Guoshi, come with me for a walk?"

He is an emperor, and he doesn't believe in Buddhism. He patiently listened to the monk's lecture out of respect. Naturally, he couldn't keep listening here.

Yun Qi happened to have the intention of slipping away, so he got up quietly together with him.

Different from the quietness and deepness of Kudu Temple, Huangjue Temple is magnificent and magnificent, with a flat and open terrain, even the trees planted are straight and regular, walking among them, even one's heart is widened.

The two walked slowly along the bluestone road, Qiandi smiled and said: "Those monks are very cute, I thought they would make trouble because you are not a Buddhist, and even force you to become a monk!"

Yun Qi shook his head and said: "Your Majesty does not know, I am a disciple of Kudu Temple, I am not allowed to become a monk if I am under 16 years old."

Emperor Qian was stunned: How could there be such a rule in the monk's temple?

Yun Qi said: "The monks in Kudu Temple are all people who really devote themselves to cultivating Buddhism, it doesn't mean that if you find a child and raise them in the temple, you will be a monk.

"Don't worry about them. In fact, they are all orphans adopted by the monastery. They shave their heads and wear monk robes just for convenience. When they are 16 years old, they will be sent down the mountain to practice. The shortest is half a year, and the longest is not limited. The precepts have been broken... After half a year, if you still focus on practicing Buddhism, you can come back at any time. If you marry a wife and have children outside, the master and the others will only be happy for him.

"The master said that just because they grew up in a monk's temple, they cannot be forced to become monks, even if they are coerced by kindness, they must choose to leave the world of mortals themselves to be considered true Buddhists.

"Outsiders don't know the rules of Kudu Temple, but these eminent monks know about it. I'm still young, they will only think that I'm practicing in the world of mortals, and I will eventually become a monk. How can they have any objections?"

By the time he knew that he would not become a monk, he would have already quit his job as a national teacher.

"Then you..." Emperor Qian looked at him with a complicated expression: "It's not true..."

But he couldn't say those two words.

Yun Qi shrugged his shoulders and said: "Master doesn't allow it. Besides, there are many precepts in Buddhism. Although I prefer to be vegetarian, I will occasionally be greedy for meat. If I really get tired of the world, I will probably go to the mountains with my hair!"

Suddenly there was no one around, Yun Qi realized that Emperor Qian had stopped at some point, followed him and said, "Your Majesty?"

Emperor Qian looked at him, with a slightly astringent tone: "Qi'er..."

Yunqi frowned.

Ever since the eldest princess went up the mountain and told him the story of Gu Yunxi, Yun Qi had faintly rejected Emperor Qian, and only half a month ago when he talked about his life experience, he returned to the past... But when he said "Qi'er", he heard It's not uncomfortable.

Emperor Qian walked slowly to his side, sighed, and said, "You may not like to hear some things, but I still want to say them."

Regardless of whether this little guy is of his blood or not, seeing that he has the desire to escape from the world at a young age, Emperor Qian's heart is very blocked.

"The relationship between people is never static, let alone born with it." He looked up at the sky, with a heavy voice: "Half a month ago, you said that I, even now, I don't regret taking that bowl of abortion pills, I only regret that I didn't take the medicine hard enough and hard enough...

"Yes, you're right, but that was 16 years ago, and that was the choice 16 years ago.

"I pity Xi'er, but it doesn't mean I don't feel sorry for my own flesh and blood. It's just that I can only choose Xi'er among Monk Yunxi's pregnant child...but that was 16 years ago."

"If it is today 16 years later," Emperor Qian looked sideways at Yunqi, subconsciously stretched out his hand to caress, and said in a low voice, "If that child stood in front of me alive, let me stand between him and Xi'er, If I choose once... I really don't know how I will choose."

Yun Qi took a step back, avoiding Emperor Qian's hand.

Emperor Qian sighed softly, put his hands behind his back, walked slowly, and said after a long time: "If you are really my child, I would have no face to tell you these words..."

"That's why Yunqing, he doesn't say anything, he can't say anything... What's more, he doesn't like to talk, he only does it. Don't look at him as smart, but emotionally, whether it is He is so clumsy about any emotion...

"Yun Qi, your mother is your mother, you are you, even if he deliberately prevented the child from being born, it doesn't mean..."

Yun Qi interrupted: "Your Majesty, can we not talk about this?"

Emperor Qian was slightly taken aback, then waved his hand, and said: "Forget it, let's not talk if you don't want to talk... If it weren't for being forced by the Queen Mother, I don't want to speak well for that brat."

He smiled again: "It's almost time for lunch. It's rare for you to go down the mountain, and it's rare for me to go out of the palace to have a meal together? Last time you asked me to have a meal, but you didn't eat it when you went. It made me unable to eat for a few days, so I have to make up for it this time."

Yun Qi shook his head decisively: "No."

"why?"

Yun Qi said: "I have no money!"

Emperor Qian was speechless for a moment. The king of his country took the initiative to ask someone to treat him to a meal. What a shame, but he was flatly rejected, and the reason was... no money!

Emperor Qian sighed and said, "Then I invite you, is it alright?"

Yun Qi glanced at Emperor Qian with disgust, shook his head and said, "It still doesn't work."

Wearing a dragon robe, want to go out to eat out?What a joke!

"I will go back to the temple to eat with the master later."

Today, he only needs to show his face, and the great monk has a high status, seniority, and age. This kind of Buddhist meeting does not need to participate in the whole process. The first day of the lecture is enough, and it is enough to go there occasionally later.

But Puhong is different. As a representative of Kudu Temple, not only must he stay here for ten days, but he must also perform brilliantly in the lectures and debates. Otherwise, where will the face of the ancestor of Buddhism in Kudu Temple be put?

Emperor Qian shook his head: It's still so shameless!But he can also experience the feeling of bumping into a wall with this father and son, and after touching it a lot, he will get used to it... It's quite a thought not to touch it after a while.

"Then... next time?"

Yun Qi nodded without sincerity: "Next time."

"By the way, the queen mother has always wanted to see you, when is it convenient for you..."

Yun Qi shook his head: "It's not convenient at any time."

Emperor Qian was speechless for a moment: "...Forget it, I didn't say anything."

Emperor Qian went back to the palace first, and Yun Qi was resting in the side room next to the lecture hall. He had just made a pot of tea for himself, when an uninvited guest came uninvited. It was the two princes Liu Jun and Liu Qin.

After standing up and saying hello to his seat, Liu Qin said: "Liu Qin was able to return to Beijing safely with the help of Master Meng Guoshi. There are too many things these days, and it is Liu Qin's fault that he has not been able to thank you in person."

Yun Qi shook his head and said: "Your Highness the Fourth Prince is serious."

I really can't blame Liu Qin. Since Yunqi entered Beijing, he either recuperated his wounds behind closed doors or practiced in seclusion. Except for Qin Yi, Zhang Cheng who fought with him, and the shameless Chen Qun, almost everyone else no see.

Liu Qin has done his utmost to be courteous. He sent gifts every now and then, and even visited twice in person. Unfortunately, they were all rejected. Only now did he have the opportunity to speak face to face.

Yun Qi poured tea for them, looked at the eldest prince Liu Jun, and said, "It just so happens that your highness came down, and I was about to remind the first prince. I saw the luck of the Huangjue Temple today, and there was a faintly ominous aura hovering around. The prince still needs to take strict precautions to avoid catastrophe."

Liu Jun was stunned, and said: "Since the national teacher can see the evil spirit, there is no way to get rid of it?"

Yun Qi shook his head, and said: "Some of the catastrophes in this world are due to luck, and some are due to cause and effect. The difference is like meeting robbers on the road and enemies deliberately seeking revenge... The former can be resolved by taking a detour. The latter can only be dealt with carefully.”

Liu Jun said: "The master of the country can see, who will this calamity fall on?"

Yun Qi still shook his head: "This fierce aura is erratic, there is no definite number, but it is not fierce. Your Highness is careful, so the consequences can be minimized."

Liu Qindao: "What the national teacher means is that some people deliberately want to make trouble at the Buddhist meeting, and may even cause death?"

Although he was talking to Yun Qi, he looked at Liu Jun. Obviously, this sentence was to remind Liu Jun, so Yun Qi smiled and didn't answer. Just at this time, the lecture in the morning was over, so he got up and left.

After leaving the temple gate, I saw another unexpected person: "General Qin?"

Didn't this person protect the emperor and go back to the palace? Why did he appear here again?

Qin Yi led the horse, stood together with Qing Yi and others, cupped his hands and said: "The safety of the national teacher is the most important thing, and the officials are here to send the national teacher and Master Duhai back to the temple."

Yun Qi finally couldn't help it, and said: "General Qin, isn't the job of the commander of the imperial guards particularly busy?"

As soon as the words came out, Qing Yi and the others almost laughed out loud, and there were endless "chi chi".

The color of Qin Yi's black face changed, but the expression remained the same, and he said: "Besides me, there are two deputy commanders in the imperial guards. The three of us take turns guarding the palace. When your majesty is out of the palace, every... ..."

"Thank you, General Qin," Yun Qi saw that he seemed to be about to memorize the entire duty list of the Imperial Army, and quickly stopped: "Let's go!"

Qin Yi was interrupted in the middle of his speech, and he was stunned for a while before he realized it, and quickly got on his horse.

After half a day's episode passed, Yun Qi returned to his original state of life, repairing talismans and seal seals, playing wildly with the young monks, bickering with the great monk, and teasing his horse and dog.

On the [-]th day of the first lunar month, there was another heavy snowfall, and the weather that had been somewhat warmer suddenly turned cold again.

Yun Qi was idle and bored, sitting in front of the window, stretching out his hand to catch the snowflakes, watching the big snowflakes turn into small wet marks on the palm of his hand.

Suddenly Qing Yi lifted the curtain and said, "My lord! The eldest prince is here!"

Yun Qi let out a "huh": "Has something happened in Huangjue Temple?"

Liu Jun strode into the door, bringing in a cold air, gritted his teeth and said, "Master Minghui passed away!"

Yun Qi said: "Who is Master Ming Hui?"

He said again: "He was killed by someone? What about Nephew Puhong, is he alright?"

……

In the small pavilion that was almost covered by heavy snow, Liu Yue withdrew his eyes from the heavy snow, turned to look at the slim girl in snow-white fox fur, his eyes were full of sarcasm: "Let me ask the Queen Mother for a marriage, marry me You are a concubine...Miss Gu Qi, are you joking?"
