After rebirth, White Lotus forced her husband to be a good man

Chapter 14: Being a Wife Teaches You "Be Pure of Heart and Restrain from Desires"

The sun shines warmly on the brocade quilt, and the room is filled with warmth. As New Year's Eve approaches, the temperature has risen slightly after a sudden drop. Tan Yuwang sinks into the soft big bed, his long eyelashes tremble slightly, and his cheeks on both sides are a little... Pink and tender.

A burst of heat hit her, and she stretched out one hand under the thick quilt. The hot sunlight shone on her skin, and the warmth penetrated into her wrist. She hummed, opened her eyes, and flashed Staring at the ceiling with big flashing eyes.

After waking up for a while, she yawned loudly, turned around and wanted to stay in bed for a while, but she turned around and sat up, her hair all messy.

"Yeniansi? Your Highness?" She shouted throughout the room, stood up and walked out. The dazzling sunlight shone on her face. She blocked her eyes and walked out, and saw Liu Ye coming in from the yard, "Yeniansi where?"

"Reporting to the Second Miss, my uncle is in the North Courtyard." Liu Ye stood aside respectfully, holding a jade device for purifying the mouth. Qin Yuwang raised his hand to pick up a glass of rose scented leaf water, held it in his mouth for a while, and then spit it out gently. , "Go and prepare something to eat for me."

Liu Ye turned his eyes and couldn't hide the smile on his face, "Yes, slave, I'll go now."

The North Courtyard was very desolate. Tan Yuwang missed Ye Niansi's small body and wondered if he could survive the day in that room without floor heating.

On the way there, she saw many people walking out of the yard where the maids lived, with frightened expressions on their faces.

She didn't know what happened, so she stopped the two people and asked them.

"Go back to Miss Second, the house is haunted..." A few of the more courageous house slaves said tremblingly.

Qin Yuwang listened to what they said with a stern look on her face. After hearing this, her face turned pale with fright. Her heart suddenly sank, "Yeniansi..." She quickly ran towards the north courtyard.

In the yard where the autumn wind swept the fallen leaves, Ye Niansi held a broom in his hand and swept aside the fallen leaves and remaining snow in the yard. The original bluestone terrace and white porcelain tiles were exposed inch by inch, and he was the only one in the yard.

The sound of footsteps in the distance disrupted the tranquility of the place. Several domestic slaves came to deliver food to him. When they saw Ye Niansi, each of them was a little surprised.

Because I heard that someone in the house had done something to his room, I originally wanted to scare him, but unexpectedly, nothing happened to him.

"Your Highness the Night King, it's time to eat." They didn't want to cause any more trouble, so they placed the food in the room behind him. Before leaving, a man suddenly stepped on something soft under his feet. Stopping and looking down slowly, the puppy opened its two bright eyes and looked at him eagerly.

"Ah - you damn dog!" Without exception, they all knew this dog. They were also responsible for the destruction of the room that Ye Niansi was about to stay in that day. They never expected that this dog would still be there. alive.

The man raised his foot and stepped on the dog. The dog only had its front legs and could not run away. It could only whine and bark.

"Stop." Ye Niansi came forward, looking at them quietly with his black eyes, and his voice was very calm, "My servants, I don't know where it has offended you, why should you treat it like this?"

Those house slaves were already frightened because of the strange things happening in the house, and now they were even more frightened when they saw the dog coming back from the dead. They were afraid that this bad luck would also happen to them, "Night Nian Si, I advise you to mind your own business. Now that you have arrived at the Qin Mansion, the Emperor no longer wants you! Your life and death will be decided by the Qin Mansion!"

"We're going to kill a dog. You'd better shut up, or we'll beat you too!"

Ye Niansi's black eyes suddenly surged with a fierce evil force. He looked at the disabled dog with no ability to struggle under the fists of the crowd, and his mind flashed back to the time when he was being beaten.

He closed his eyes slightly, a cold light flashed on the tall bridge of his nose, his thin lips trembled slightly, and he recited the Insect Technique Mantra.

The ants who were sleeping and resting in the grass woke up one after another, rubbed their bulging bellies on the ground, and looked at the two house slaves with their orange-red and dark green eyes.

A large group of black insects and ants gathered at a rapid speed.

Ye Nian Si Nian's speed was getting faster and faster, and he opened his eyes suddenly, his eyes slightly glowing with blood red and looked straight at the two people opposite him, like a roaring lion in the dark night.

"His Royal Highness the Night King——"

Tan Yuwang's silver bell-like voice came from the distance. She ran over from a distance with a full rice bucket in her hand.

Ye Niansi's back was facing the direction she came from. The moment he heard the voice, he immediately stopped chanting the curse. He raised his eyes to look at the group of domestic slaves, and stepped forward to protect the slaves when they landed fiercely. As a puppy, a house slave didn't have time to stop his feet and kicked him on the left arm, then hurriedly stopped.

Ye Niansi knelt on one knee, clutching his left arm tightly. His moon-green robe was stained with blood. He looked at the group of domestic slaves with evil eyes.

Qin Yuwang ran to him and squatted down, holding his arm nervously, "Are you injured?"

The evil in Ye Niansi's eyes was swept away. His black eyes glanced coldly at the ground. For just a moment, the ends of his eyes turned slightly red and he said silently, "It has nothing to do with them."

Qin Yuwang frowned and stood up, "Who told you to come here and be so arrogant?"

The slaves were so frightened that they hurriedly knelt on the ground one by one, "Second Miss, you guys just want to get this dog away, and don't want to offend my uncle. Second Miss knows this!"

Qin Yuwang looked at the dog on the ground that was missing two hind legs, and couldn't help but feel a little frightened. She glanced at Ye Niansi, with little doubts in her heart, "This little tyrant has always cared little about other people's life and death matters." She put it on the shelf, but the life of this puppy was so important.But does this also mean that he is not that bad? 】

Qin Yuwang waved his hand, "Everyone, get out. You are not allowed to come in privately without my order from now on!"

"Yes, yes..." Several house slaves kowtowed several times, lowered their waists and went out.

Qin Yuwang helped Ye Niansi up and handed him the lunch box in his hand. Just as the man was about to reach out to take it, Qin Yuwang suddenly retracted, leaving his palm empty.

His black eyes were slightly raised, with a cold look in them, and his voice was cool and hoarse, "Second Miss, what do you mean?"

Qin Yuwang took a few steps closer, raised his head and looked directly into his eyes. Perhaps because of his abstinence, Ye Niansi's face was still beautiful and flawless even when viewed from such a close distance. "When did you learn this trick?"

Ye Niansi's eyes were as calm as the vast sea and rivers, "I don't understand what the second lady said."

Qin Yuwang had a smile on his lips, tilted his head slightly, and walked closer to him. Ye Niansi lowered his head slightly and was forced to step back step by step.

"Okay, now I have not only learned to show weakness, but also learned to act stupid. Your Highness the Night King, you finally look like a normal person." After forcing him to a corner, behind Ye Niansi was a stone table, slightly tilted Leaning on his side, Qin Yuwang raised his head and stood in front of him.

The woman's breath came back repeatedly on his neck.

Ye Niansi retorted, "I didn't." He stubbornly covered the wound, and would rather lean against the stone table, with the muscles on his waist as clear as bricks, than move even half an inch closer to Tan Yuwang.

Qin Yuwang raised his hand and held his wrist, looking at him calmly and softly, "It doesn't matter, this is good. Your Highness can show weakness in front of me from now on. I will help anyone who bullies you or makes you unhappy." You solve it."

Ye Niansi was startled, but his tone was still cold, "It's extremely stupid to show your weakness to others."

Qin Yuwang shook his head, and the bun on his bun shook slightly, "No, I don't think so at all. If you don't tell your pain, how will others know you and love you?"

"Come, let me help His Highness take care of the wound." Tan Yuwang took a few steps back before Ye Niansi was willing to sit on the stone bench.

She skillfully removed the original accessories, wiped the wound clean, and wrapped it around with thin gauze. "Your Highness's wound is healing quickly. In a few days, it shouldn't bleed so easily. You should take good care of yourself in the past few days and don't do anything too tiring."

Ye Niansi's dark eyes saw that her right hand was deliberately covered with a long sleeve. Compared with her left hand, it was not a bit swollen. His dark eyes slid upward and looked at her gentle and calm smile at that time. She came over from behind, and that was the first time he felt warm in the shadow.

His dark eyes looked at the light scattered behind her thin figure. He always thought that he was destined to be born in hell due to the environment. Only by being able to control the destruction of all living things could he truly feel the beauty and warmth of this world.

But his deep-rooted thoughts were shaken shamefully because of her existence. In a moment of trance, he felt as if he had her, and even the shadows in this world were no longer miserable.

If he were an ordinary person, then he should be extremely satisfied at this moment. A person who has never been loved has received the care of others, and he would be fine as long as he lives like this.

But how could he be an ordinary person?

How could he be an ordinary person.

He can't even decide his own life or death, or the life or death of his mother's family. He lives in this world with a bad reputation after being a witch. He is despised by thousands of people for being the legitimate son he doesn't want to be. He is also the golden mean and power among the princes and emperors. The sacrifice of the Valve Game.

Everyone around him, whether they love him or not, there are undoubtedly only two endings between them and him. One is that he is treated as a chess piece and discarded after use, and the other is that the people around him are treated as chess pieces by him. Life and death are different paths.

He looked back, feeling extremely disgusted and ashamed that he had coveted warmth and love for a moment. "Okay, the dressing has been changed. Let's have breakfast. Oh, by the way," Qin Yuwang suddenly remembered a good place, "Your Highness, I will take you to a place in my house." She couldn't help but pull him up. With his hand, he pulled him towards the south courtyard.

Ye Niansi followed her, watching her holding his hand, trying to resist, but unable to take it back, his eyebrows filled with disgust.

When he reached an antique small attic, Qin Yuwang stopped. Ye Niansi stopped slowly and raised his eyes to look at the attic in front of him from bottom to top.

The windows, pavilions, carved railings and jade mirrors of this small building are all made of bamboo. The bamboo is painted with dark red paint and coated with a layer of fruit oil. It is very bright in the sun, but the color is Tasteful.

In "Jiangnan Louting" he had seen, there was a very famous architect named Duofen. This was his typical style. He liked to use bamboo to make various objects that ordinary people could not even imagine. .

He had carefully observed the design of the entire mansion, which was all in the style of a northern general's mansion. It was spacious and grand. I am afraid this is the only Xiaojiabiyu attic, which fully reflects the Jiangnan style.

Qin Yuwang raised his eyes and looked at this place, "Does this pavilion look familiar to Your Highness?"

Ye Niansi coldly lowered his eyelids and said coldly, "It's just a broken yard. What can you do if you are familiar with it? What can you do if you are not familiar with it?"

Qin Yu rolled her eyes at him. This person was really disappointing. She took a few steps forward and pointed at the flowers and trees around the yard. "Your Majesty, do you remember a poem called, 'If they are exposed to snow together in the morning, this life can be regarded as shared.'" Whitehead'?"

Ye Niansi gave her a disdainful look with his black eyes. This was a poem written by Yuan Xi, a former Yibin scholar. He was separated from his fiancée due to the war. After seeing his home burned down, he stayed at Ninggu Pagoda for 50 years. He was able to return to his hometown at the age of 74. But he only saw that his wife had died the year he left.

The two met only once, and they agreed to get married in response to the matchmaker's advice. It was a snowy night when they met and fell in love. Yuan Xi took his wife to the attic to recite poems and compose poems. He thought that this would be the norm in his life, but he didn't want to miss it. It became a lifelong swan song.

The famous poem "Snow Hair" was included in Yuan Xi's collection of poems "The Thorn Bird Movement". Unlike other literati, Yuan Xi's inscription to that collection of poems was not a poem he thought was the best, but a poem he thought was the best. It's a story about a thornbill.

The thornbill is a very loyal bird. If one of the couple dies early, the other will spend his whole life looking for the longest thorn in the world, then rush to the thorn and let the thorn pierce its chest. , before dying, he made the loudest sound, seeming to tell his lover in heaven that he was coming to accompany her.

This was supposed to be a story Ye Niansi had read when he was five years old, and he was surprised that he had remembered it all these years.He looked at Qin Yuwang and said, "Second Miss wants to recite poems and compose poems. I'm afraid I can't help you. If there's nothing else, I'll go back first."

He turned around to leave, but Qin Yuwang hurriedly grabbed him, his cheeks flushed anxiously, "Don't be anxious, I brought you here for a purpose, and I prepared a gift for you!"

Sitting next to the window with a good view on the second floor, Ye Niansi lowered his eyes and looked at the "Record of Meditation" on the table. He frowned slightly, "Is this the gift that the second lady prepared for me?"

Qin Yuwang sat opposite him, picked up a small steamed bun and ate it, "Yes! You don't know that there are many good books in this study, many of which cannot be bought by civil servants today even if they ask around. What a great book!”

"The poem I just told you about, its owner is Mr. Yuan Xi, well... It must have been hundreds of years ago. It should be when the world still had the surname Xiao. At that time, many literati, Because they had just been unified, there was some turmoil, and they wrote many, many poems.”

"The small attic we are sitting in now is where Mr. Yuan Xi brought his wife. In fact, Mr. Yuan Xi's family is in a very good situation. The current Qin House was built by merging 33 houses in the Zhongzheng [-]st Ring Road of Beijing. Yes, the loft was originally going to be demolished because the style seemed a bit out of place. After all, Mr. Yuan Xi is from Yibin, Jiangnan."

"But because I like my husband's poems very much and also like his book "The Thorn Birds Movement", my father kept this place and continued to use it as a library."

Tan Yuwang smiled slightly, closed his eyes, and took a few gentle breaths. The scent of books here was very strong. The fragrance of books that had been left for a long time was a hundred times better than the superficial smell of rouge and gouache.

She opened her eyes and looked at Ye Niansi, wanting to talk to him more, but seeing his cold look, she sighed and said, "That's all, His Highness should not be interested in Mr. Yuan Xi and his "Thorn Bird Movement". But your Highness must read this "Record of Meditation" carefully."

Ye Niansi's dark eyes stared closely at the book on the table. There was a title on the cover of the book called "Jingxin Record" and it was written by "Yuan Xi the Sinner".

It is a book written by Yuan Xi.He couldn't help but a hint of provocation and disdain flashed across his brows.

Looking at the ancient books, there are many people who have achieved great attainments in the method of meditation. Whether it is based on Buddhist compassion, Taoist Guangji in this life, or the distance of the court and the suffering of all living beings at dawn, you can find it casually. I can find no less than ten excellent works.

Although Yuan Xi is a talented person, his thinking is too narrow-minded. He is half of the royal family, close to the water, and has a certain ability to judge the situation. However, he has spent 50 years in vain for a woman, spending all the joys and sorrows of his life. Regarding such an illusory thing as "love", it is no wonder that he suffered from desires, thoughts, greed, anger and ignorance, and did nothing in his life.

Only a semi-literate scholar like Qin Yuwang, who doesn't study, would be interested in letting others learn from the meditative experience written by a single person.

Ye Niansi looked sideways at the furnishings in the library. There were wide bookshelves everywhere, as high as two people, with no end in sight. Although they looked small from the outside, they actually had a broad view from the inside.It was also his first time to visit a building designed by Master Dauphin, and he was really shocked by his ingenuity.

Although this book made little sense, the other books in the room were very helpful to him.Since he was imprisoned in the cold palace at the age of six, he has never read a book.

Although he is not completely relieved of the fear of his life now, if he does not seize this opportunity to make up for the ten years of lagging behind, he will be counted dead sooner or later.

Ye Niansi's tone rarely softened, "Okay. I promise the second lady to read this book carefully..." He lowered his head and glanced, ""Jingxin Record".

After speaking, he looked directly at Tan Yuwang, who held his chin in his hands and blinked at him.

Ye Niansi thought, [Why doesn’t she leave? 】

Qin Yuwang thought, "This is the first time he looked at me so affectionately. It seems that my beauty trap was successful!" 】

Ye Niansi bit his back teeth slightly and said, "Second Miss, don't you have anything else to do today?"

Qin Yuwang rolled his eyes, tilted his head and thought about it carefully, and then thought about it again, "Yes."

"Then I won't delay the second lady." Ye Niansi wished she could disappear quickly so that he could see what treasures Tan Yu had hidden in the library.

Qin Yuwang smiled, her little face as cute as a flower, "My mission is to accompany you, husband, to study. This "Jingxin Lu" is very difficult to read. I heard that you haven't read a book since you were six years old. , then it must be a little difficult for you to read. I am here, if you have any questions, you can ask me!" She blinked.

Ye Niansi looked at her directly, "Ask you?"

"Yes, yes, at least I have read it once. I must have a slightly better understanding than you, right? And I have been reading since I was a child. Don't worry, Your Highness, I have already given instructions to the people below, and they will be here at meal time After bringing the food, His Highness can read in peace and contentment. Whenever he finishes reading, we will change to the next one." Qin Yuwang said.

Ye Niansi lowered his eyes slightly, and clenched the big palm on his knees slightly, "At that time in Kunlunxu, this woman should have been killed." 】

He reluctantly made a sound, "Okay." He didn't believe it, and Tan Yu hoped to stick with him all the time.

He raised his hand and opened the book and found that it was the first volume of "Records of Meditation". There were ten volumes in the whole book. Looking at the snow-white pages and the green and sedate block letters, There was some doubt in Ye Niansi's eyebrows.

This book is at least 200 years old.If he remembered correctly, it should have been written by Yuan Xi when he was 69 years old. Although he has not read it, Yuan Xi's style has always preferred Xiaozhuan and rarely used formal regular script.

Besides, this book has been preserved to this day, and the paper is still so white?Shouldn't it be yellowish?

He raised his head slightly and met Qin Yuwang's two big eyes. She smiled and read the book, then looked at him. The smile was a little frozen on her face, and her expression was still a little serious. "You are reading, what are you looking at me for?" , are there any words on my face?"

Ye Niansi could only lower his eyes and forcefully flip through the pages. Every time he turned a page, the scent of ink came out. The words were beautiful and neat, but some of the words were a little bit soaked in ink at the end. It was obvious that his hands were shaking. .

He glanced at the first page, and then quickly turned to the second page. Qin Yuwang stopped him, "You can't read like this, you have to read every word carefully."

Ye Niansi frowned slightly, his black eyes filled with helplessness, but he remained expressionless and nodded, "Okay."

He originally thought that the content in the Meditation Record should at least have some relationship with Buddhism and Taoism, but he did not expect that the content in this book was really unexpected. The sentences in it were all like this -

"All human beings are born to suffer, and all living beings are suffering, but suffering is not the meaning of human beings. Human beings are born to be good, and if they abandon their thoughts and indulge in lust, they will not have the consequences of killing and hatred. A person will definitely meet one or two noble people in his life. Awaken your original intention amidst the overwhelming material desires, enjoy the beauty of love, and be free from suffering."

"The relationship between husband and wife is delicate. In ancient times, husband and wife, the fate of parents, the words of matchmakers. Meeting each other may be lifelong, or it may be the end of life. It can be seen that life is short, except for the ignorance of children for ten years, except for the old, weak, sick and disabled In ten years, there are less than twenty years left to enjoy the goodness and beauty of the world, what a pity.”

"However, the existence of love turns everything into endlessness, and turns resentment into blessing. Love exists in the righteousness of life and death, as well as in food, clothing, and warmth. The meaning of life is not to be emperor or honor, to be high, to win, or to be powerful. What is precious is that there is a close person beside you, who is considerate of sorrow and warms your tent like a hibiscus."

These words are not as profound as the scriptures, but it can be seen that the person who wrote them is indeed a kind person who pays attention to using love to resolve the suffering in the world.Reading it as a fantasy work can barely cultivate your sentiments.

Ye Niansi felt that his eyes were a little sore. He raised his eyes slightly and found that Qin Yuwang was still looking at him directly, with a look of expectation on his face, "How is it? What did you read?"

Ye Niansi held the book in his hand, and his slender joints moved slightly.

He looked at Qin Yuwang's shining eyes and thought, what does she want him to read?
