The punishment of the female imperial court

Chapter 44

The location of Yinlong Temple is actually not good.

Because it is close to Qixia Gate and connected to the mountains outside the city, the terrain is high in the south and low in the north, and it is an inverted shape.

The monks who built the temple at that time took advantage of the terrain to stack the Buddhist halls layer by layer, forming a screen with the mountains outside the city, echoing the Daming Palace from a distance.

When the first emperor was young and had not yet succeeded to the throne, because of his admiration for Buddhism, he stayed in the monastery incognito for several months, eating and living with the monks.

After succeeding to the throne, he praised the temple highly.It is called a "barrier" to block the evil winds outside the city, and it is hidden as the guard of Daming Palace.But Fuguang is swaying, full of splendor, and there is a hidden dragon spirit lingering, so he personally mentioned it as "Yinlong Temple".

Boyi stood at the steps of Yinlong Temple, pursing his lips tightly.

Sure enough, it was brilliant.

But that brilliance did not jump into those black eyes at all.

After standing for a while, he climbed up the stairs, but this time, no one stopped him.

The monks of Yinlong Temple heard about his intention and led him and Jiushu inside.

He deliberately did not mention the matter of offering incense and confessing, and together with the monks, they passed through many Buddhist halls, turned into the monk's dormitory, and entered a secluded small courtyard.

When the guiding monk saw someone brought him there, he conveniently left.Those who come to find Jikong are all poor people with miserable backgrounds, so naturally they can't just listen to their secrets.Therefore, they often wait outside the temple, bring people and leave.

Bo Yi had calmed down now, and felt that his annoyance was a little inexplicable.He lowered his expression and was about to knock on the door, but the courtyard door suddenly opened, and standing inside the door was the familiar red dress.

Both of them didn't expect to meet each other here, they stared wide-eyed for a while, only the neighing of Harmony Yincao remained.

"What are you here for?"

The corners of Yu Qiansi's lips twitched lightly, her eyes flicked past him, and stopped on Jiu Shu behind him.

Seeing Yu Qiansi's relaxed brows slowly frowned, Bo Yi felt that the insects in the yard were too noisy.

"Why? You are only allowed to come, and I am not allowed to come? Yinlong Temple belongs to your family?" Boyi's ear tipped suspiciously, looking at Yu Qian's joking expression, he felt embarrassed to be exposed.

Yu Qiansi took a step back, gave way to the door, and stretched out her hand in a "please" gesture.

"Of course I can. It's just that spring is good in the capital, Mr. Uncle, don't forget to go to the criminal justice department to cancel the record and get things as soon as possible."

Boyi pretended to be calm and took a long legged step, passing by her side.

"Oh, that's right! Remind Uncle Bo, you still owe me a bet. I hope that the trip to Yinlong Temple can make my wish come true."

Yu Qiansi looked at Bo Yi's steady figure, turned around and left as if he had succeeded.

The red skirt suddenly bloomed as the woman turned around like a cloud, and disappeared in an instant.

Jiu Shu was dumbfounded, is this the legendary Jade Rakshasa?
Although he followed secretly yesterday, he did not dare to approach.Looking at it up close now, it is really dazzling.

Looking at the wine book with such a disappointing appearance, Boyi cleared his throat in dissatisfaction, and said to the wine book, which suddenly returned to his senses, "You should go to the front hall to recite the sutras for me if you do this in this pure place of Buddhism. , give me your mortal mind quietly!"

Jiu Shu pouted aggrievedly.

Didn't you also be at a loss by this Jade Rakshasa, and you came here to ask for a Buddha's lottery?How dare you talk about me.

Looking back, Bo Yi felt that everything was not going well. The little monk who led the way in the small courtyard seemed to have known that he would come, and led him to the quiet hall, which made him even more unhappy.

He should have a good understanding of Ji Kong who pretends to be a ghost.

I had put on airs and planned to find out the truth, but I didn't expect to be caught off guard by the sincere apology when I saw Jikong's face.

The fragrance of tea is overflowing in the hall, and the old monk is full of smiles.

"The behavior in the morning is really helpless. First, if you want to ask for a lottery, you really need the suffering master to come in person. Second, I have an appointment with the jade hall master today, and I am worried that it will be bad if you meet. This is why I have to find an excuse. Let the little novice next to you stop you and ask you to wait in the front hall. I didn't expect you to come so fast."

"I think, you definitely don't want to meet the Jade Pavilion Master at this moment."

The fragrance lingered in the nostrils of the nightless Hou, and was handed out by the kind-eyed and round-faced monk in front of him. He was in trouble, and he always felt that his villainous heart saved the gentleman's belly.

No wonder no one mentioned confession when he came.The monk who led the way did not understand what the little novice said.Jikong probably didn't expect that someone would dare to lie in front of the Buddha, and instead of going around the front hall, he would come directly to find him...

He smiled and took the teacup with both hands, and the fragrance burst out, extinguishing the arrogance just now.

Take a sip, the honey fragrance fills the teeth, and the aftertaste is mellow. It is a good ancient tree Dianqing, which is at least 50 years old.

"I don't know how the master knows that I will come?"

Ji Kong picked up a rosary, and recited a Buddha's mantra as if sighing softly.

"The affairs of the Marquis of Guang'an are well known in the capital, and yesterday I saw a trace of an old seal, so I thought, maybe the son of an old man has returned."

The bright red tea soup in Boyi's hand made waves.

The pupils shrank suddenly, and he looked deeply, with indescribable panic in his eyes.

An old friend?

Jikong didn't want to say any more, and just asked him: "Have you thought about it clearly, the benefactor? If you choose this path, there will be no possibility of turning back."

There are ripples in the cup, and the sound is heart-stirring.

He hurriedly put the cup on the table, clenched his fists and lowered his eyes, trying to meditate.

Ji Kong didn't urge him, just closed his eyes, and chanted the meditation mantra as if no one else was there.

It took a long time to hear Boyi's hoarse voice.

"I'm still young, so I can't really remember what happened back then. But I still remember that when she was leaving, she gave me small letters and called me 'Xian'an'. I stayed in a corner, as she wished."

Leisurely and peaceful.

Ji Kong stopped chanting, and silently moved the rosary in his hand.The rosary beads were tapped lightly, scattered and scattered, making a small undulating sound.

"Although the master is an outsider, he should also understand the heart of being a child. Now that I know that she died with injustice, how can I be at peace?"

Jikong shook his head, as if he had expected it a long time ago, and handed over a Buddhist lotus made of pagoda tree wood.

One corner is carved with a lotus, the knife is deep, and the pen touches the soul.

The written verdict:

"If you are weak, you will be defeated, and if you die in a family, you will also talk about your relatives. Occasionally, you will find an old relationship, and I hope you will return with a big dream."

It is exactly the Buddhist lottery requested by Yuli Pavilion.

Boyi stared at the verdict, a trace of pain flashed in his eyes.

"Is the big dream coming back?"

The scattered dreams of childhood have gradually become clear since yesterday.

There was sarcasm on the corner of his lips, and when he raised his head again, his expression returned to calm.

He thanked him freely and turned to leave.

Jiushu knew that Boyi didn't really ask him to chant scriptures, so he wandered around the temple and then came back. The Yinlong Temple was crowded with pilgrims and it was very lively, so he had to turn back and wait outside the door to obey step by step instructions.Just now the young master dismissed him in front of the little monk, and he immediately understood that this gave him a reasonable reason to investigate.After following the young master for so long, there is still some tacit understanding.

This brother Jikong monk kept saying "the blood debt of killing evil", if he didn't just talk about it, he must have other deep meanings.But knowing their identities, those who dare to make a fuss about "killing evil" are naturally from the north.But I wandered around and found nothing unusual.

He was good at observing words and expressions, and seeing his young master's gloomy face, he didn't dare to say any more, and followed him out of Yinlong Temple with his head down, heading for Yuli Hall.

Boyi handed over the Buddhist beads and amulet that he just got yesterday to Yuli Hall, and left a few words about the entrustment.

After dealing with all this, I only realized when I raised my head that the sky was getting dark and there were crowds of people.

Flower God's birthday party just got lively.

From the moment he left the Yinlong Temple, he was in a state of confusion and was at a loss for what to do.

Entering Beijing this time, there are too many unexpected things.

He stepped into the world of mortals and drifted with the crowd.

Seeing that he was still dull, Jiu Shu finally couldn't hold back, and asked tentatively: "Master, I heard that Lingyun Pavilion is very lively today, so the selection of the 'Flower Lady' has been going on since noon. Why don't we go too?" Join in the fun?"

After finishing his sentence, he looked up and saw his young master standing upright in the crowd, his face was as calm as a deep pool, but his slightly condensed brow betrayed his thoughts.

Among them, the lights flickered, as if a candle was lit.Jiu Shu followed his gaze and only had time to see a pair of red clothes disappearing into the gate of the restaurant under the bright lights.

Looking at the snow-blue carriage parked beside it, the pattern on it is complicated, and the word "King" is lightly outlined.

It was clear in an instant, and I didn't dare to say another word, I just closed my mouth and stood quietly.

During the flower festival, at dusk, talented scholars and beautiful ladies naturally have nothing to do with others.

After a long time, there was a hint of sarcasm on Boyi's sharp-edged face, but he didn't know who it was for.

"Wine book, the wine I asked you to bring, is it here?"

"My subordinate went to the suburbs of Beijing to get it early yesterday morning. According to your instructions, I found a remote winery and stored it. That winery has also been sold."

Jiu Shu secretly sighed his hard work.

Not only did he need to use the seal to find people and inquire about the Yuli Pavilion, but he also had to run around the suburbs of Beijing and the capital. Just after returning yesterday, he was arranged to follow Yuqiansi again, and today he even made two trips to Yinlong Temple.

What can the young master do without himself?

"Take me to see."

Could it be that the young master was angry for a while and wanted to get drunk?

"Master, that was the first jug of wine you brewed ten years ago. Didn't you say that when we leave Beijing safely, we should drink it as a celebration wine? Drink it now, it's not very auspicious."

Bo Yi gave him a gouged look, and Jiu Shu immediately shut up and obediently led the way.

Passing by that restaurant, bursts of spicy came.Even if you don't look at it, you know it's the flavor of Sichuan.

He snorted secretly: "Don't eat the delicacies of mountains and seas, and eat some offal organs, I don't know the goods."
