Chapter 703

"I've been standing there for a while, okay, let's go back! I want to be alone here quietly."

Wang Yan bowed and retreated from the Ganlu Hall, Li Zhi walked towards the steps of the front hall that could not be covered by the eaves, letting the cold rain hit his face and his exposed arm skin.

Seeing His Majesty like this, the ladies in charge of lamps and night watchmen all changed their expressions slightly, but no one dared to remind His Majesty.

The rain on his face turned from cold to warm. Li Zhi looked at the pitch-black sky and the rain that flew into the light of palace lanterns like thousands of silver threads.

Li Zhi stepped down the steps, and the maid who held the lantern hurriedly followed Li Zhi, but Li Zhi gave him a stare, and almost dropped the lantern in his hand because of panic.

"Don't follow me!"

"Yes! The servant obeys the order."

Li Zhi walked out of the Ganlu Palace, and walked in the night and spring rain of the imperial palace. Li Zhi had no purpose, no direction, just like an ant whose antennae had been pinched off.

When he saw the gate of Foguang Temple, Li Zhi rang the gate.

It wasn't the familiar little nun who opened the door, but Huijing. She was not wearing a monk's hat at this time, and her short hair at the ear was very clear in Li Zhi's sight.

"I didn't expect you to be the one who opened the door."

"Just woke up at night, and heard a knock on the door. Your Majesty, come in quickly, why are you so wet?"

Huijing held the lantern, Li Zhi looked at the Buddhist hall not far away, the Buddhist hall was lit with ever-burning lights, and Li Zhi walked towards it.

"Your Majesty, go to the side room and change your clothes first!"

"No, it's just that the clothes outside are wet."

Li Zhi walked into the Buddhist hall and saw several Buddha statues smiling gently there. Li Zhi walked in front of the Buddha statues, pulled a futon, and sat there casually.

"Your Majesty, what's the matter with you tonight?"

Huijing hung the lantern aside, walked beside Li Zhi, put her hand on Li Zhi's shoulder lightly, and asked softly.

"It's nothing, don't worry about me."

"Ke Huijing sees that His Majesty seems to be very preoccupied."

"Hui Jing, you have profound Buddhist studies and are born with deep spiritual roots. Can I ask you a few questions?"

"Ask your majesty if you have anything!"

Huijing naturally noticed the difference between Li Zhi and Heping. Normally, at this time, Li Zhi shouldn't have started to behave mischievously.

"I can't remember the faces of people I know very well!"

"How familiar is the face of a very familiar person?"

"It's as familiar as the queen mother."

"Your Majesty, as soon as you came in, Huijing felt that something was wrong with you today. What happened?"

"I can't see through the emptiness, I can't see through the prosperity and silence, and I can't remember that familiar face ever again."

"Your Majesty, do you still remember the warmth in your arms, the familiar smell, and the gentle side face you saw when you looked up?"

"The warmth in my arms, the familiar smell..."

Li Zhi muttered there, Huijing had already pulled a futon, sat opposite Li Zhi, under the gaze of the Buddha statue, Huijing pulled Li Zhi into her arms.

"The warmth in my arms, the familiar smell..."

Li Zhi was still muttering, Huijing hugged him and kissed his forehead.

"I am very familiar with this kiss, she has kissed me like this before."

"Does Your Majesty remember her appearance clearly now?"

"Still can't remember."

"Your Majesty, please rest well."

In the Tai Chi Palace in the early morning, the rain was still falling, Hui Jing yawned, looking at Li Zhi who was still sleeping soundly in her arms, her face was tender.

Without waking Li Zhi up, Huijing continued to sit in the Buddhist hall like this. Several white foxes ran in here, and the biggest one snuggled up beside Huijing, whimpering and whimpering.

"Okay, Xue'er, Your Majesty is making noise."

Huijing gently rubbed Xue'er's snow-white hair, where Li Zhi had already opened his eyes.

There was tenderness on the side of the face, Li Zhi looked up at Hui Jing, at a certain moment, he seemed to remember that person's appearance was more three-dimensional, but the face was still blurred.

"Master, let you sit here for one night."

"Your Majesty is awake!"

"Well, I woke up. Last night, I felt that this embrace was very warm and familiar."

Li Zhi got up, and Hui Jing also got up, but after sitting quietly for a long time, the blood circulation was not smooth, and she fell suddenly, Li Zhi quickly helped her up.

"Your Majesty, the morning time has passed."

"It's okay, I haven't gone to court early for several months."

Li Zhi stood outside the Buddhist hall, the spring rain outside was much heavier than yesterday, the ground was wet at this time, and the spring rain was like silk and fog.

Wu Meiniang didn't see her master come back all night, so she ran to the Buddhist hall very early in the morning, but saw His Majesty looking at the rain in front of her.

And the master sat on a futon, rubbing his legs and feet.

"Your Majesty, were you here last night?"

"Well, I talked about some Buddhism with my teacher."

Wu Meiniang had already walked towards Huijing, squatted down, and helped Master rub her legs and feet.

Sitting quietly for one night, there is still a person in my arms, and the blood circulation is indeed much poorer.

When Huijing finally managed to stand still, she dragged Wu Meiniang to Li Zhi's side.

The three of them didn't know what to say or what to do, quietly watching the rain fall as if it wouldn't stop.

Xue'er and the three cubs also ran beside the three of them at this time, whimpering and screaming twice, Wu Meiniang hurried to the kitchen to prepare food for the snow foxes.

"Your Majesty, are you feeling better now?"

"Accompany me to Tangquan Palace today! Coincidentally, I also want to take Sister Wencheng to visit."

"Okay! Huijing will go and get ready."

"Since the hair has been left to the ears, don't wear plain robes."

"Huijing has been wearing this plain robe all these years."

"Since you want to walk into the world of mortals, try the clothes and accessories of this world of mortals."

"Then Huijing will change it now. By the way, Your Majesty, do you want to bring Mei Niang?"

"Well, take it with you!"

The convoy in the palace is a bit huge, and the road traffic at this time is far from being as developed as in later generations. Even if you go to the Royal Palace, you have to walk through the mud all the way.

Fortunately, the carriage was still waterproof at this time, and the royal carriage was still extremely warm.

When they arrived at Tangquan Palace, the empress and others followed Princess Wencheng to have a look here, but Li Zhi had already taken an oil-paper umbrella, and Hui Jing followed beside him. The figure and appearance of the women who have served for many years are much better.

Li Zhi held the umbrella with one hand, and lightly wrapped Huijing's waist with the other.

Walking out of Tangquan Palace without letting anyone follow, I walked slowly in the spring rain, along the cobblestone path until I reached a grave.

The inscription in front of the tomb marked the identity of the owner of the tomb. Li Zhi stood in front of the tomb. Huijing looked at the inscription and then at Li Zhi.

"Your Majesty can't remember what Concubine Lan looks like?"

"No, come here, just to see her."

Li Zhi caressed the wet stone tablet with his hand, the stone tablet in his palm was cold and wet, as if it had lost the temperature of the cold rain.
