Chapter 274
The end of the new year has come, and the first year of coming to Taimiao is a little deserted.

When Mingxi came back from the mountain, she heard Yingxiu say that the queen mother wanted to see her, so she hurried back to her room and changed her clothes. When she walked to the door of the queen mother's room, she rubbed the bruises at the corners of her eyes with a guilty face, "Hiss..."

I didn't pay attention to hurting my face when I was practicing today, and I didn't expect my mother to make a surprise attack. I didn't even have time to prepare...

do not care!
She gritted her teeth and walked in with a smile: "Queen, are you looking for me?"

The charcoal is burning in the room, and a burst of warmth comes to the face, accompanied by a light sandalwood.

The Empress Dowager was sitting by the window, with a hand-copied Buddhist scriptures and a pot of hot tea in front of her. The tea was just brewed and steamed.

She stopped what she was doing when she heard the sound, put down her pen and looked over, she saw the bruises at the corners of her eyes at a glance, and frowned slightly.

Her small face was porcelain white, so the bruise was particularly obvious.

The Empress Dowager's face was inexplicable, her eyes seemed to be smiling but not smiling, "Did you accidentally drop it again?"

Ming Xi subconsciously put her hands together the broken hair in front of her forehead, trying to cover it a bit, she smiled shyly, "Hey, recently, the snow has been so heavy recently that I can't even see the road clearly!"

How can someone fall twice in three days?

Ming Xi wondered if the Queen Mother knew about it long ago but just didn't expose her!
As expected, the Queen Mother didn't bother about this matter, her eyes fell on the Buddhist scriptures in front of her again, and she said slowly, "Come and sit."

Ming Xi obediently said "Oh", walked over to her and sat down.

Her eyes were unconsciously attracted by the Buddhist scriptures in front of her. After studying for a period of time, she didn't know all the characters above, but she could barely recognize some of them.

At first glance, I think the word "Queen Dowager" is good-looking, but it is too sharp, with a murderous aura rushing towards my face. Although I am extremely restrained, I can still get a glimpse of it from the beginning and end of the stroke.

It may have something to do with her early experience on the battlefield.

It's okay to put such characters in other places. They can be used to copy Buddhist scriptures.

Xu Mingxi watched it for a while, and the queen mother noticed it and said, "If you want to ask anything, just say it."

Ming Xi blinked her eyes and stared at her curiously, "Does Queen Mother really believe in Buddhism?"

The queen mother gave her a meaningful look, and the corner of her mouth curled up, "Why do you ask?"

Ming Xi showed a hint of doubt on his face, "I see that my mother copied the scriptures and recited the Buddha every day, but there is not a single related object in the house, so I am a little curious."

It stands to reason that people who believe in Buddhism should put some things such as Guanyin Buddha statues in the house, but there is nothing in the Empress Dowager's room, and meat and vegetables are not taboo, which inevitably makes some sense.

"You guessed it right, the Ai family never believed in Buddhism." She put down her pen, held up the copied Buddhist scriptures, her expression was calm, "Ai's family followed the late emperor to fight in all directions in the early years, with countless blood stains on their hands, copying scriptures and chanting Buddha? "She snorted softly, her tone slightly mocking, "If the Buddha could appear, the Ai family would have gone with the late emperor long ago."

Ming Xi opened her mouth and looked stunned, then said in surprise, "Then why are you..."

The Empress Dowager raised her eyes, with a half-smile in her eyes, "Jiaojiao, sometimes some things are done for others to see."

Seeing Mingxi's slightly dazed expression, she squinted her eyes, and her eyes suddenly became serious: "Su'er was only thirteen when he first came to the throne, and he had nothing to rely on for his young age. At that time, there were not many people who coveted this position. It’s the disposal of a group of people that makes those people more peaceful.”
