Leader Lan Palace

Chapter 2497 Eight Volumes 22 Witch Curse
Wanxi had an epiphany, and she couldn't help but asked Monk Delin softly with a smile, "It turns out that Feilai Peak is a magic weapon, whether it's a flute or a whistle, it's all played for the emperor after all."

Wanxi raised her eyes and looked at the hundreds of Buddha statues accumulated over 800 years on the cliff of Feilai Peak. She couldn't help but smile with happiness in her heart.

"Who is playing it? Heaven and earth, and all the Buddhas on Feilai Peak."

Wanxi looked sideways at the emperor with a smile, "Your Majesty, all the Buddhas on the flying peak are singing in unison, just to welcome you. Concubine, congratulations to Your Majesty."

Emperor Longyan was very happy, in front of so many people, especially the great monks in the jungles of Hangzhou, he was embarrassed to reach out to hug Wanxi, but just smiled, stretched out his fingertips, and lightly touched Wanxi's wrist Checked it.

Wanxi wears green jade bracelets on her left wrist, and they collide with each other, jingling like a spring.

When the wind stopped, the sound of nature, like a flute or a whistle, also stopped.

Wanxi lowered her eyes slightly, and looked behind the emperor.

Fu Long'an, as He Shuo's son-in-law, is also the ambassador of Luan Yiwei at this time. During this southern tour, he personally served as the emperor's personal guard and followed the emperor.

Wanxi called softly, "Brother Long, come here."

Fu Long'an hurriedly stepped forward, "What is the intention of the imperial concubine, Emiang?"

Wanxi smiled and blinked, "Do you still remember the eagle bone whistle you blew in my palace when you were young?"

There are two most expensive deer whistles in Wanxi Palace. One is made of Haidongqing's leg bone. It was made of antlers, it was sent back to her by the emperor on her birthday when she failed to follow the emperor to Mulan that year.

The two bone whistles are one of the most cherished objects in Wanxi Palace, usually I am reluctant to take them out to look at them.

But Wanxi is willing to give all her good things to the children.Fulong'an's younger brother was also curious about the deer whistle, so he was very rare about the deer whistle.Wanxi is not only willing to let him play, but also allows him to play.

The deer whistle is faint, echoing the fond memories of Fu Longan's childhood.

Fu Long'an smiled and nodded firmly, "Aniang, this servant remembers!"

Wanxi gestured to Fu Longan and smiled encouragingly.

Fulong'an was a little nervous, Wanxi said softly, "Go."

Fulong'an hit Qian'er and begged to come forward.

The emperor's long eyes flickered slightly, and he looked towards Wanxi.Wanxi nodded with a smile.

The emperor also relaxed, and said with a smile, "I'm sure."

Fu Long'an strode forward, climbed up the rock, pointed at the small hole on the mountain wall, and sucked his lips.

yo-yo-

Like the sound of a deer, it falls from the sky.Although it is not as clear as the sound of the wind before, it is still more expensive than the sound of yo yo, which is more like the sound of deer than before.

Wanxi turned around with a smile, walked to the engraved statue of the Budai monk, and said as if using the identity of the Budai monk: "Yo Yo Lu Ming, the apple of the wild food. I have guests, and I play the lute and sheng."

The emperor couldn't help laughing, stretched out his hand to pull Wanxi over, and turned to Delin, "Have you ever seen such a cloth bag monk?"

Wanxi hurriedly said, "Master Abbot, I am being abrupt."

Delin also laughed, clasped her hands together, and recited: "Maitreya is the real Maitreya, with tens of billions of incarnations, showing it to people all the time, but people don't know it."

This is the verse of death left by Budai monk when he passed away, and the Zen inside is infinite.

The emperor also nodded with a smile, tilting his head to look at Wanxi with a smile, "The Buddha has no form. How do you know that the Buddha can't be transformed into your appearance when he comes to this world?"

Wanxi was secretly delighted, her cheeks blushed, and she hurriedly returned to the emperor's side.

Walking around this time, before raising his eyes, his gaze also fell into the eyes of the one behind the emperor and behind the imperial guards, who was the head of all the accompanying ministers—Jiu Ye Fu Heng.

Wanxi's heart trembled slightly, then she smiled calmly and nodded leisurely.

Fu Heng made a virtual salute in mid-air, but he couldn't hide his eyes after all, and the sadness that flowed past disappeared.

Listening to the sound of the stone cave blowing by Fulong'an, the emperor got up and drove with a smile.Delin led a group of monks to send him out of the mountain.

The emperor left without saying a word, but with a smile on his face, Yuqin was also a little puzzled, and after getting into the carriage, he asked Wanxi why.

Wanxi smiled and bowed her head, "I don't know much. It's just a guess. Hangzhou is mostly a Zen temple, and the monks all believe in Zen. And what Zen pays attention to is 'sudden enlightenment', which lies in the sudden clarity of the Lingtai, and no more Language. Just like the famous 'nianhuayixiao'."

Yuqin also nodded with a smile, "So, the emperor 'started with a smile', although he didn't say anything, he actually said everything."

Wanxi looked sideways in relief, and lifted the curtain to look at the emperor riding a horse ahead.

"Smile" means epiphany, for a sudden enlightenment, to let go completely.From this point of view, the knot in the emperor's heart has been solved.
.
Because of today's peace of mind, the emperor went back to the West Lake Palace for dinner that night, and distributed a good dish of duck with lotus seeds to Nalashi, Wanxi, Yuqin and Concubine Rong.

Nalashi did not fall behind.

After dinner, the emperor finished his afternoon business and went to the Empress Dowager's Palace to greet her in the evening.

The Nala family lived with the empress dowager, so she also went to see the emperor.

The emperor still had a pleasant face, with a smile in his eyes, and when he saw her, he said in a soft voice, "I went to Lingyin Temple today, which is very good. You can also go to Lingyin Temple with Huang Erniang tomorrow to pilgrimage."

Nala's heart twitched for a moment, and he couldn't tell whether he was happy or unhappy.

Ordinarily, the emperor seems to have forgotten the quarrel that day, and he can treat her as usual today; but... the emperor still remembers the trouble of asking her to worship Buddha and offer incense, which made her feel a little unhappy.

At this age, the empress dowager has become more devout in reverence for gods and Buddhas. Seeing the emperor's return from today's trip, her expression is calm.The Empress Dowager asked with a smile, "What good things happened to the Emperor in Lingyin Temple?"

The emperor stood beside the empress dowager, held his mother's hand and said, "Ernie Minger, go, the abbot of Lingyin Temple, Delin, is also a wonderful person."

"Oh?" The Empress Dowager couldn't help raising her eyebrows, "Who recommended it?"

Due to the respected status of Lingyin Temple, and it was a place that the emperor would visit every time he visited the south, the abbot and monk of Lingyin Temple had to be recommended by local officials before he could inherit the mantle.

The emperor laughed, "My son also asked specifically today, and I just found out that Xiong Xuepeng, the governor of Zhejiang, recommended it."

The Empress Dowager thought for a while, "Xiong Xuepeng? Oh, I remembered, he was the governor of Shuntian Prefecture in the capital, and he also served in the Ministry of Rites. It turned out that he was sent to Zhejiang."

The emperor listened, lowered his head and pursed his lips and smiled.

He remembered that when he and Jiu'er talked about Xiong Xuepeng back then, the two of them could still laugh, "Does a bear have to learn how to spread its wings like a big Peng, and want to fly to the sky?"

This Xiong Xuepeng, back then quietly undertook to make the clothes for Jiu'er to be promoted, so that he could suddenly decree that after he was promoted, the canonization ceremony would be held very soon, and Jiu'er's position would be confirmed go.

Today is another reunion by fate, it is obvious that this person has some kind of good relationship with Jiu'er.
.
The empress dowager cared more about the Buddhist teachings in Lingyin Temple than she paid much attention to the emperor's expression.

But Nala's is different.

She has never paid attention to the Buddhist teachings of the Han people and the teachings of Zen temples.An old Manchurian like her, she believes in the shaman god, or the Lamaism spread from Mongolia to Manchuria. She doesn't believe in the mysterious and mysterious meditation of the Han people.

So her spiritual head is only with the emperor.The slight change in the emperor's expression was caught by her.

Her heart was churning again.

She couldn't help tilting her head and asked Dege softly, "The emperor went to Lingyin Temple, who followed him?"

Dege replied: "Concubine Rong and Ning Changzai believe in their own true gods, so they must not go to the Buddhist temple. Yongchangzai is in front of the empress dowager, so naturally they can't go. If so, those who can accompany the emperor to go , and only Concubine Ling and Concubine Qing are left."

Nala couldn't help gnashing her teeth.

In this way, the emperor went to the Zen temple today and came back with such a smile. I'm afraid he took those two Han women's hoofs to travel around the mountains and rivers, and he had fun! .
After sending the emperor away, Nala went back to his bedroom, and then asked, "Is it settled for what I asked you to inquire about?"

De Ge and the others were a little worried, and said cautiously, "Master Ming'er is going to accompany the Empress Dowager to visit Lingyin Temple?"

Doing those nasty things before worshiping Buddha will eventually have the disadvantage of intentionally offending the gods and Buddhas.Even the Dege three, they themselves are not willing.

But Nala sneered, "The empress dowager is going, what Buddha do I worship?! The god I want to worship is the ancestor god in Kunning Palace; the Buddha I want to visit is the Buddha of Lamaism! They What does the Buddhism of the Han people have to do with me?"

After all, there are different schools of Buddhism.The Buddhism here in Hangzhou is of course Han Buddhism, but before the Manchus entered the customs, they were influenced by Mongolia and believed in the Tibetan lineage.

"I tell you to speak quickly, and you will reply immediately! After all, if you don't do anything about this matter, it will be too late!"

Dege took a deep breath carefully, "The solution is already found, and the stonemason has been found. But... master, you can decide who to apply this method to?"

After listening to Dege's detailed explanation of the spell-casting method, Nala's curled his lips and sneered, "You mean, that method can achieve two effects—or it can drive people's spirits, and call that The unruly ones have become obedient; the other is to directly kill people."

Dege nodded cautiously, "Exactly... It is said that it is very effective in Jiangnan. Someone once used this method to curse the sixteen members of the enemy's family to death."

Nala smiled with satisfaction, "That's all right. I'm not going to..."

The scene of the emperor smiling with his long eyes and speaking softly appeared before Nala's eyes.Between her teeth and cheeks, there is still the fragrance of lotus seeds and ducks that the emperor gave her this afternoon.

What's more, back then, she was able to secure the position in the middle palace with her concubine position, and it was all supported by the empress dowager behind her.In order to establish her as the queen, the empress dowager did not hesitate to turn her face with the emperor several times.

She lowered her head, and her heart softened so sourly and sweetly.

"It's the first one. I just want them to forget their prejudice against me and treat me well from now on. We will still be a close family."

Dege and Guoxin looked at each other, their hearts beating wildly.

"It's just...to do that, after all, you have to use a few tricks—or hair braids, or clothes corners."

Nalashi had already made up his mind to go, but when the situation came to an end, he might not be panic-stricken.

She twisted the rosary with her fingertips vigorously, and her long nails collided with the rosary, making a piercing sound.

This movement made her unable to listen, she was afraid that the sound would make her flustered, so she would not be able to be firm.

She threw the rosary on the table violently and stopped counting.

"That's not difficult! In the past few years, I have occasionally served the empress dowager to comb her hair, but when I combed my hair, I hid it. The emperor also said that he planned to wait for the empress dowager's [-]th birthday to have blonde hair Pagoda, enshrine all the hair of the Empress Dowager. So I still have it in my hand!"

As Nalashi said, a string of cold light could not help flashing in his thin eyes.

"Besides, even if someone finds out in the future, I can push all the origin of the empress dowager's hair to Yongchang! After all, since she entered the palace, the empress dowager has only called the empress dowager to comb her hair and wash her face. She's going to do it by herself, so I don't need it!"

Dege and Guoxin looked at each other again, and they both nodded.

——As long as they can find a surrogate ghost and take the honor of the master's palace, then this time's incident will naturally be the same as those in the past.

"As for the emperor's clothes..." Nala closed her eyes, "it's not difficult. Go to the cabinet, there should be a few of the emperor's pajamas in our palace. It's just that we are in Hangzhou right now. I can't remember for a while, whether I brought it out or not."

Between her and the emperor, although they have been stumbling over the years, there are imperial concubines Huixian, Shujia, and Chunhui in front of them; and there is imperial concubine Ling behind... But she is still born with the emperor. Those children went there.

At any rate, the emperor came here occasionally in those years, so he also kept pajamas in her palace.

Dege hurriedly took the key himself, and went to search in the cabinet.

In fact, Dege was also a little worried, or a little lucky-wasn't this on the southern tour, they must have brought the emperor's pajamas with them.After all, the emperor hasn't checked the master's brand for many years, so it's useless to come out with pajamas, isn't it?

The master really wants to use that method to curse the empress dowager, after all, there will always be a dead ghost there, that's all right; but if the master also curses the emperor, Dege and the others are not at ease.If the emperor's pajamas can't be found today, the master will not be able to cast spells on the emperor, that would be a good thing, and let her give Song Xia a heart.

——After all, the emperor is not the empress dowager.No one can guarantee that casting spells on the emperor will work.

With this in mind, Dege went to the cabinet and searched briefly, then turned around and went back to Nala's, only saying, "Sure enough, I didn't bring it out."

But Nala lowered his head, raised his finger and pointed to the quilt, "Go to the drawer at the bottom, wrap it with my two old pajamas, and there is one worn by the Emperor."

There was a bang in Dege's heart.
.
On the thirteenth day of the second lunar month, the emperor and the empress dowager split into two groups and went to one place each.

The emperor took Wanxi, Yuqin, and Concubine Rong to Three Pools Reflecting the Moon and Yiyuan; the Empress Dowager took Nala to Liuyi Spring and Lingyin Temple.

When they arrived at Lingyin Temple, Monk Delin personally picked up the empress dowager and the queen's two palaces.After talking about the Dharma for a while, the empress dowager also felt that Delin's words were pleasing to her ears, and the emperor mentioned that Delin was a wonderful person yesterday, the empress dowager was very happy, so she personally gave Delin a meal.

After eating, the Empress Dowager rewarded 54 taels of incense and gold according to the old practice of the previous three southern tours.

From the moment Nala entered Lingyin Temple, she was absent-minded.On the one hand, it is because she does not want to believe in the Chinese teaching of Buddhism, and on the other hand, she is concerned about the spell casting that was arranged last night—the empress dowager’s hair and the emperor’s clothes have already been handed over. Maybe the stonemason is about to start. Seal these victorious things into the bridge piles.

After the empress dowager rewarded the fragrance gold, even Yong Changzai went to add five liang of silver sesame oil.Nalashi still stood there distracted, even the Empress Dowager couldn't help staring at her.

Dege quickly reminded him softly, and Nala finally came back to his senses.

Looking at the lacquer plate held by Delin herself, which contained two silver coins, Nalashi held back his reluctance, and asked someone to take out a silver coin to fill it in.

The silver seals are big and small, with the empress dowager and Yongchang's two silver seals for comparison, one can guess how much Nala gave from the size of the seals.

The empress dowager frowned a little.

On the contrary, Yongchang smiled, "Looking at the size of the silver seal, the Queen's master rewarded him with the same amount as the concubine. The concubine was really panicked, if she had known, she would have added less sesame oil."

Nala's heartbroken, he sneered and said, "Your mother's family has given you a lot of self-esteem, you can give as much as you want. It's the same as mine, and I don't blame you. Express yourself to each other. The mind is enough."

Still in the middle of a Buddhist temple, surrounded by monks from Lingyin Temple, Nala gave only so much, the empress dowager gritted her teeth, walked over and whispered, "You are the empress of our Qing Dynasty after all. !"

Thinking of the effectiveness of the magic spell, Nalashi is no longer afraid of facing the empress dowager.

Just go in a few days, when the spell is effective, the empress dowager will change her temper and be kind to her.Maybe she will be able to control the empress dowager's spirit at that time, and the old lady will do what she wants to do to the empress dowager.

Thinking of it this way, Nalashi couldn't help but be happy.Even facing the empress dowager's anger, he also laughed, "Oh, look at what you said. It's not the first time we've come back to Lingyin Temple. Every time I only give five taels."

"This is an old rule. It can also be said that I have only such a small fate for this Lingyin Temple. Five taels is already a lot. How much do you want?"

The empress dowager turned pale with anger.

She is 73 years old this year, which is the "Kan'er Year". She originally wanted to burn incense in various Buddhist temples in Hangzhou, in order to seek the protection of gods and Buddhas, and live a long life.But Nala not only refused to add blessings and longevity to her, but said such words under the guidance of this god and Buddha!
The old lady was so angry that her fingers were trembling, pointing at Nalashi, she was speechless for a long time.
.
Because the empress dowager and the emperor lived in two separate palaces, and this day was not the day when the emperor came to greet him, the emperor did not know what happened at Lingyin Temple that day.

Although the empress dowager was very angry, she still endured it when she returned to her bedroom, not mentioning it for the time being.

On the contrary, Xiao Shiwu came to pay his respects to the Empress Dowager this evening and presented a poem.

The Empress Dowager was originally full of anger, but she didn't expect her little grandson, who was just four and a half years old, to be able to write poetry!She was happy for a while, but it also washed away the previous unhappiness.

Little Shiwu quietly looked at the Empress Dowager's expression, kept his thoughts in his heart, and said obediently, "Yesterday, Huang Ama went to Lingyin Temple to offer incense, and I heard from Ernie that the great monk of Lingyin Temple presented it to Huang Ama's new servant. Longjing tea. After drinking Longjing tea at Lingyin Temple, Huang Ama came back with a smile on her face."

"The grandson was very curious about what the Dragon Well was. He thought that since it was called 'Dragon Well', he was destined to have a relationship with Huang Ama, the real dragon emperor, so he was as happy as Huang Ama. So today, the grandson asked for familiarity. , I took my grandson to Longjing to have a look.”

"When my grandson came to Longjing, he felt that his heart was wide open, so he imitated Huang Ama's favorite poem in the old days, and he also learned to write these few lines. I hope that Huang Ma's mother will correct..."

Based on the words spoken by this four and a half year old child, no poems or songs are important, the empress dowager just pulled her grandson into her arms, and kissed and kissed her grandson affectionately.

Only then did she lower her eyes to look at the poem, and the Empress Dowager was also surprised.

Originally, I didn't expect this child who hadn't formally entered school to write any rhyming poems. It would be nice to be able to write a few jingles, but I saw "Ode to Dragon Well" neatly written on the paper: "... Thunder suddenly doubts rain, and bamboo spring does not know autumn."

Although the Empress Dowager is Manchurian, she can also write Chinese poems. Seeing that her little grandson has written such neat and meaningful poems, it is hard to believe that it was written by a four and a half year old child who has not yet entered school. !
The empress dowager was so happy, she hugged Xiao Shiwu and kept shouting "My heart and soul", which really made the old lady very happy.

"Luo Binwang wrote "Ode to the Goose" when he was seven years old. You are only six years old this year, one year younger than Luo Binwang, and you can already write such a neat "Ode to the Dragon Well"! You are also a child, It's also Yin Yong, my dear grandson Yuanzi, you are going to surpass King Luo Bin!"

The little fifteenth master blushed with joy, "... King Luo Bin doesn't have a good mother like his grandson, nor a good mother like Huang Ama! The grandson just inherited the teachings of Huang Ma and Huang Ama."

In the empress dowager's dormitory, bursts of hearty laughter came out through the window, without any concealment.

Nalashi listened to this in his bedroom, and could not help squinting, "The weather is like that during the day, but it's like this when you come back. Could it be that our practice has already started, and it has come to fruition so soon ?”
.
The emperor was very happy to hear that the Empress Dowager returned from Lingyin Temple on this day, so he visited Delin and Lingyin Temple again on the [-]th day of the second lunar month.

The abbot, Monk Delin, was ordered to receive the reward outside the gate of the West Lake Palace, including: 550 taels of incense and gold, eight pieces of clothes, eight bundles of Tibetan incense, four seals of Omba incense, and one shaft of stone-carved Buddha statue.

Perhaps because the empress dowager was happy, the emperor credited Nala with all the credit.On the [-]th day of the second lunar month, the emperor also specially announced that the chefs in Suzhou would make a stewed five-spice chicken with bird's nest and reward it to Nala.

This is a separate reward, and it is only given to Nalashi. How long has it been since Nalashi has not been treated like this, and this makes him overjoyed.

"Both of their mothers have changed their sex today! It worked, our method really worked!"
