Crazy criticizes the empress because she is bent on mistaking Buddhism

Chapter 47 Returning to the Capital

It has been more than two months since Xie Qingyun did not go to court.

The ministers were restless and began to block the palace entrance more and more frequently, trying to get an explanation.

However, Tiansheng was the only one who came out to respond to them every time.

The old eunuch was used to big scenes and was able to handle the officials with ease.Even if he was surrounded by a group of people and interrogated, he could always find a way to say something that would not only set the specific time for the emperor to go to court, but also give the ministers new expectations.

It makes people gnash their teeth with hatred, but they are helplessly persuaded by Tiansheng every time.

At the same time, in the past two months, the refugees in the suburbs of Beijing were finally settled.

Thanks to Huicheng for this matter.

Although there were other officials helping to deal with the problem, only Huicheng lived and ate with the refugees for three months and did not return home for three months.

Moreover, Huicheng not only meets the material needs of the refugees, but also provides them with spiritual support.

He preached to them, calmed the public's restless emotions, and at the same time worked hard to reconcile the conflicts between the refugees and the local residents.

Through Huicheng's unremitting efforts, in just three months, the original refugee camp began to take shape as a village.

Now, instead of relying on government supplies, many families can become self-reliant by running small businesses.

Huicheng also planned land for each of them, so that they can sow seeds next spring.

These refugees regard Huicheng as their savior, and even depict the Buddhas placed in their homes as Huicheng.

With the expansion of Huicheng's reputation, his followers are also increasing.Later, not only refugees, but also villagers from other villages near the outskirts of Beijing began to worship him.

These people have all benefited from him and inherited his kindness. In their eyes, Huicheng is a living Buddha.

It's just that they don't know why, even though the living Buddha has saved so many people, he always shows a sad face in a place where no one notices.

..................................................................

Xie Qingyun returned to Beijing.

When Runliu heard the news and hurried to the palace gate to pick her up, he saw her holding Tianseng's hand with a smile in her eyes.

The Heavenly Monk seemed a little reluctant, but he didn't struggle.

Runliu suppressed the excitement in his heart, walked over and knelt down and said, "Your Majesty is welcome back to the palace."

Xie Qingyun hummed: "Get up."

Runliu responded, stood up and stood beside Xie Qingyun.

He felt that Xie Qingyun seemed to become... much brighter.

Runliu glanced at Tianseng, who was being pulled by Xie Qingyun, and silently lowered his eyes.

It's probably because of the eminent monk.

His judgment at the time was correct.The eminent monk is His Majesty's medicine.

Runliu ignored the bitterness in his heart.

"Have those ministers come to make trouble these days when I'm not here?" Xie Qingyun asked as she walked.

Runliu said: "I come here every day. Fortunately, Eunuch Sheng and the Prime Minister are here, so it's quite safe."

Xie Qingyun nodded and asked no more questions. She planned to go back to the palace to change into her dragon robe and deal with the ministers in person.

Before the Heavenly Monk left, Xie Qingyun had changed her clothes and saw him sitting there, looking like a cold immortal.

Xie Qingyun couldn't help but walked over and kissed him.

"I have to take care of some things. You should go back to Jingxin Hall first."

"I'll look for you later, how about having dinner together?"

Celestial Monk, who was caught off guard and kissed him, now blushed a little. His coldness just now disappeared and he turned back into Zhuo Yulang in the mortal world.

He lowered his eyes and said "hmm" softly.

Xie Qingyun called Runliu to send Monk Tian back to Jingxin Hall, and then took Tiansheng to the front hall first.

As soon as Xie Qingyun left, Tianseng quickly regained his composure.

It seemed that the nervousness and shyness just now had never appeared on his face.

"Senior monk, please." Runliu said respectfully.

The Heavenly Monk nodded and followed him towards the Jingxin Hall.

He was the only two people walking one behind the other on the quiet palace road.

Runliu lowered his eyebrows and looked down quietly.

The heavenly monk is not a talkative person either.

It wasn't until he was about to reach the Jingxin Hall that Runliu said, "Thank you, the eminent monk, for what happened to the King of Chu." The secret guards around Xie Qingyun were all confidants he had trained. Runliu knew everything about what happened to them in the south of the Yangtze River.

The heavenly monk said: "If you are an adult, you can do it."

Run Liu shook his head: "The only people who can do this are eminent monks in the world."

He knew the emperor's character very well.

If it had been someone else other than an eminent monk, he probably wouldn't have survived until the moment he made his own decision.

The Heavenly Monk said: "That's because you know your Majesty too well."

It is precisely because Runliu understands Xie Qingyun's temper and pain so well that he subconsciously becomes timid when he comes into contact with people from his past.

Runliu was thoughtful, and after a while, he smiled bitterly and said, "Maybe."

Maybe so.

But even if Tianseng explained the reason in one word, he still wouldn't muster up the courage to change her again.

Because he...doesn't have the qualifications at all...

Junliu didn't want to think about it anymore.

He spoke with a bit of sourness: "Your Majesty seems to have changed a lot."

The Heavenly Monk hummed, "After King Chu untied Your Majesty's heart, she has indeed changed a lot."

The heavenly monk did not understand the former Xie Qingyun.

If he knew enough, he would know that the change Runliu mentioned was not only reflected in his character, but also in his actions.

This is the first time since Xie Qingyun came to the throne that she has not killed anyone for more than two months.

But Junliu didn't tell him.

"To be honest with you, eminent monk, in fact, besides the King of Chu, Your Majesty has another knot in his heart."

"If the eminent monk is willing to help, you may be able to completely cure your majesty's heart ailment."

The Heavenly Monk asked: "Master, are you referring to Xue Chuan?"

He had heard Runliu mention it once before when Xie Qingyun was ill.

This time when I went back to see the King of Chu, Xie Qingyun herself asked about Xue Chuan's incident, whether the late emperor would blame her.

So he guessed that Xue Chuan was Xie Qingyun's biggest worry.

Sure enough, Runliu responded: "The Xue family has been slaughtered by His Majesty a long time ago, but a few months ago, Jin Yiwei captured another one."

He briefly told the monk what happened that day: "Later, His Majesty lost this memory due to illness. For His Majesty's sake, we did not mention it in person."

"Where is that Xue family now?"

"That man is just a young man. He is now in prison. Although he has not been tortured again, his will is not strong enough. He is frightened every day and is now a little crazy." Runliu said truthfully.

Because Xie Qingyun wanted to hide this matter, not many people knew about it.

The heavenly monk nodded and said hello.

"Please allow this poor monk to think about it."

Injuries sustained over the years cannot be healed overnight.

An opportunity is also needed.

Junliu was not in a hurry and nodded in agreement.

They had now reached the entrance of the Jingxin Hall. Runliu looked inside and said, "The palace people have tidied up the hall, so the eminent monk can rest assured."

The heavenly monk said thank you.

"There is one more thing... I want to ask the eminent monk."

Runliu said: "Have you changed your mind?"

He looked at the Heavenly Monk, unable to hide the nervousness in his eyes, and his hands clenched tightly unconsciously.

Until I heard Tian Monk's cold voice: "No."

Runliu couldn't say whether he was relieved or disappointed after hearing this answer.

Especially after he heard about what happened between His Majesty and the Heavenly Monk in Jiangnan.

He thought he was going to be replaced.

But I heard the Heavenly Monk say: "The poor monk has been here for too long."

"When Your Majesty's last knot is resolved, the poor monk plans to return to White Horse Temple."

　I'll try my best to update twice tomorrow.
