Reborn Concubine Queen

Chapter 210 The Way Home (2)

The female officer who led Shi Yiqing in turned pale with fright, and hurriedly knelt on the ground to distinguish: "Reporting to the Queen Mother, no one told her to kneel on the ground and wait, maybe she got it wrong and knelt there."

The queen mother was furious: "Even if she knelt down wrongly, you who are serving outside will not go forward to remind her?! Aijia sees that you are bullying and bullying others!"

Liao Chen, who watched the farce with cold eyes, said calmly: "The queen mother calm down, it will be useless to scold her now, it is better to put this girl in one place first, and invite the doctor to come in to see her."

The queen mother nodded in agreement, and said to the nurse Qingfeng who was waiting behind her: "You call people down as soon as possible, call the imperial doctor on duty in the imperial hospital to show her, and open another quiet room for her, and call Xiao Liangzi to go Just tell Gao Qichang that Shi Yiqing loves me deeply, I will keep her in the palace for a few more nights, and I will ask her to go back for a reunion with husband and wife after a while."

Seeing that the queen mother had no other orders, Qingfeng hurriedly went down to pass on the words according to the queen mother's wishes, and settled Shi Yiqing who was drowsy.Afterwards, the imperial doctor came quickly and took Shi Yiqing's pulse through the curtain. Seeing that it was just typhoid fever entering her body, coupled with the fact that she was overly frightened, she prescribed medicine to dispel the cold and retreated.

Shi Yiqing slept for three days in a state of confusion, during which time he faintly woke up, because his whole body was limp and weak, he passed out again after a while, and continued to repeat until the third night, and then he managed to get better.

Because the accident happened in the Fulu Palace, the Queen Mother also put on a good posture, and cooked the supplements sent by the imperial doctor every day, so she told Shi Yiqing to get better soon.

On the fourth day after entering the palace, Shi Yiqing got up early to pay his respects to the queen mother, but this time the queen mother did not ask her to wait outside the palace for a long time, perhaps because she was afraid of her sick body.

Shi Yiqing bowed his knees in the hall to pay respects to the Queen Mother, and only after getting permission from the Queen Mother did he dare to get up from the ground, stand by the side with his hands down, and listen to orders at any time.

The Empress Dowager originally looked down on Shi Yiqing. Although she was quite pleasing to the eye when she entered the palace with Mrs. Shi in the early years, but now five years later, according to her memory, that pure and lovely girl back then has become a disregarded girl. Disgraceful to the family, a lowly woman who fled without permission, married and had children.

Now, because Zen Master Liaochen, who considered himself noble and did not want to associate with others, praised Shi Yiqing's human nature in front of her, the queen mother changed her mind about Shi Yiqing.

"I heard that when you were in Jing'an Temple, you also studied some scriptures with the teacher?"

Shi Yiqing hurriedly bowed and replied: "I have learned a little bit from what I've seen and heard."

Seeing her humility, the queen mother nodded and said with a faint smile: "Some time ago, the Ai family heard a Buddhist verse, so you should come and listen to it too? The Buddha's verse says that if there is love, you will plant seeds, and the fruit will come back to life. No seed, no sex and no birth. Can you figure out what this means?"

Shi Yiqing thought for a moment, then respectfully replied: "Reporting to the Empress Dowager, the women have never read or written since they were young, so I can only hear that this is a Buddhist gather spoken by the fifth Zen master Hongren and the sixth Zen master Huineng in Zen Buddhism. I can't understand the Buddha's meaning, but what the Buddha Zen Master wants to explain is just the six realms of human beings. No one can get rid of reincarnation. If you want to get rid of it, you can only achieve Nirvana. Only then can we really transcend the world, jump out of the six realms, and live forever.”

The sound of the wooden fish was mixed with the scriptures with a clear and clear mind. Shi Yiqing maintained a humble movement and did not dare to move. He only felt that the fleeting time in the past had become so long. The queen mother on it spoke.

"Stay flat." The Empress Dowager took a deep look at Shi Yiqing, opened her eyes calmly and said, "Breeze, give me a seat."

Shi Yiqing thanked the queen mother, sat on the rich and luxurious red sandalwood round stool, fidgeted and straightened his back, and accompanied the queen mother who was sitting cross-legged on the arhat couch, and listened to the whole "Heart Sutra" sung by Chan Master Chen.

Waiting for Shi Yiqing tormented until Chen finished the last note, stopped tapping Muyu's hand, just about to breathe a sigh of relief, when she heard the Queen Mother call her suddenly: "Gao Shishi, come here and talk to Aijia. "

Shi Yiqing hurriedly got up and stood beside the Queen Mother.The queen mother wiped the corners of her mouth with a towel, and said slowly: "I was prejudiced before, and I only thought that you were like those women outside, and you could do everything. It shows that you are shameless. If you don't Zen Master Liaochen told me about your childhood, and Qingfeng inquired for you in many ways and passed it on to me. Buddha."

Shi Yiqing, who was waiting on the sidelines, couldn't help but wonder: When did she, Shi Yiqing, become a Buddhist?
The queen mother paused, seeing that Shi Yiqing's expression was still calm, she couldn't help but nodded with satisfaction: "Look at you, it really seems that you have been trained in front of the Buddha, you don't panic when things happen, don't panic when things happen, you are a bit of a Xiao family Like a mother."

Shi Yiqing lowered her head and said: "Back to the Queen Mother, my mother is of noble birth, and she is a relative of the emperor. The common women dare not discredit her and disgrace the Shi family and the Xiao family."

"When you were young, your grandmother was always thinking of you, and had already written your name under your mother of the Xiao family, and you were the princess of Yuanhe, who was sealed by the emperor himself. This identity is also called the Xiao family, your mother of the Xiao family. No shame."

When these words came out, Shi Yiqing was startled, he raised his head to look at the empress dowager in surprise, immediately felt that this was an offense, and hurriedly lowered his head and knelt on the ground again: "The woman offended, I hope the empress dowager will forgive me!"

The Empress Dowager raised her hand and called the female officer who was waiting on the side to help her up from the ground: "You child, you are really timid. You kneel on the ground every now and then, which is inappropriate."

Seeing that the Empress Dowager was not angry, Shi Yiqing vaguely understood that the royal family acquiesced in the fact that she lived in the world as Shi Yiqing, so she couldn't help but feel joy in her heart, and her face showed a little: "Thank you, Empress Dowager, thank you, Empress Dowager!"

The queen mother saw that she knew everything, she was really smart, and she liked it: "Forget it, you don't have to thank me. If you want to thank me, you should thank the emperor for his kindness. If the emperor didn't speak up in person, according to Aijia's temperament, he would definitely not be able to." Forgive."

"Thank you, the emperor, for your kindness, and thank you, the queen mother, for your mercy!"

The Empress Dowager got off the Luohan couch and walked in front of Shi Yiqing, called someone to support her to stand up, and said with a smile: "It's my Buddha's mercy. That's all, no one is allowed to mention this matter again, as long as you are like a child, fostered in the I have never returned to my hometown in the countryside, and now I am returning to Beijing to visit my old friends."

When Shi Yiqing saw that the court really didn't want to pursue it anymore, he was willing to let go of his burden and smiled with relief.
