After these two words, the voice cut off.The king of Han seemed to want to say something, but he hesitated to speak.In the conversation just now, Ayao's appearance became clearer in her mind.Although she was happy, but for some reason, she also panicked.

The concubine sighed in her heart, and patted Hanwang on the shoulder to show her comfort.The panic in the King of Han's heart calmed down.

The next day, the weather was fine, and it was time to go out for a trip.

In the case of Li Shou last time, His Majesty's intention to protect the King of Han was obvious. Because of this, the ministers gradually became less afraid of the King of Han, and seldom participated in the impeachment of her.

The king of Han realized that he finally let go of the heart he had been holding on for many years, and he was no longer the same as before, always nesting in the mansion.When I am in a good mood, I will go out for a walk.

This time, it was rare for the concubine to accompany her.

The King of Han was delighted, so he ordered people to prepare the stove and cloak, and sent his attendants to the White Horse Temple to inform the abbot.The White Horse Temple is full of incense, and there are many pilgrims coming and going. If you don't book a room in advance, you may not even be able to sit down and drink some tea.

It was almost time when the King of Han and his concubine went out.

The king of Han was very happy, and he was very happy that the princess went out with her.Seeing that she was so happy, the princess couldn't help but feel guilty. From now on, she should accompany His Highness out for a walk more often.

The White Horse Temple is located in the north of Luoyang City, with a simple style and a large area.The scenery in the temple is beautiful and full of interest. Not only women love to go there, but also literati and inkmen often borrow the Xixin Pavilion in the temple to recite poems and paint pictures.

When the King of Han and his concubine got out of the carriage, they saw a majestic mountain gate. There were three gates in the mountain, which were named Kongmen, Wuxiangmen, and Wuzuomen respectively, corresponding to the three doors of liberation in Buddhism.

The walls of the temple are painted in vermilion. When you step up the steps and look at it quietly, you feel warm and cool. The whole temple seems to be enveloped in Zen.

The king of Han and his concubine walked side by side.There are people all around, including common people and officials' family members, walking in groups of three or four, chatting and laughing endlessly.

The King of Han looked ahead, and could vaguely see the smoky incense burner in front of the Daxiong Hall.She tilted her head, lowered her voice, and said to the concubine: I heard that the presiding master Faru is an eminent monk who has attained the Tao. He is already a hundred years old. Although his beard and hair are white, he walks like flying.I've never seen him, so I don't know what he looks like or if he's different from ordinary people.

The princess smiled: He is also a human being, how can he be different from ordinary people?

The King of Han was ashamed: It is always different if you can get the Tao.

The princess looked at her and smiled without saying a word.

Along the stone steps, climb up the steps, and there will be more people in front of the Daxiong Hall.A monk in cassock came out of the hall, followed by two young monks, walking slowly towards the King of Han.

The monk is about sixty years old, he has shaved off his beard and hair, but his long eyebrows are white.He walked slowly in front of the King of Han, clasped his hands together, and saluted: I have seen Xiao Tanyue.

The King of Han also returned a salute, saying very politely, "Master Lao Faguang personally welcomes you."

Fa Guang smiled, glanced at the princess, did not stay, turned sideways, made a gesture of invitation and said: Please burn incense in the Tanyue Hall.

The king of Han entered together with his concubine and offered a stick of incense to the Buddha.

The two came here because of the plum blossom grove. Faguang had been welcoming guests in the temple for many years, so he gave him some winks. Shaman, let them serve well.

The king of Han and his concubine went out of the hall and went to the temple.

Behind the main hall is a small open space, which is paved with stone bricks, flat and without slope, surrounded by temples dedicated to Bodhisattvas, with a censer placed in the middle, and the smoke above the censer is like a fairyland.

The two walked through the open space and went straight to the back.The number of pilgrims gradually decreased, and the little novice introduced them to them: "Further ahead, there is a plum blossom forest. Outside the plum blossom forest is a pavilion named Xixin Pavilion. There are literati here to meet friends with literature. Today, there is no one. Vegetarian dishes, at noon, the two Tanyues can eat in the pavilion.

Just as he was talking, the plum blossom forest was in front of him.

That piece of plum blossoms, white and pink, spread out in an orderly manner, as if it were boundless.

Such beautiful scenery and such a large plum blossom are rare in Beijing. Only the red plum blossom in front of the Linde Hall in the palace can be compared with it.

The King of Han approached slowly, leaned in front of the tree, and watched the shape of the flower.

The two novice monks stopped following and just waited outside the forest.

The King of Han took a good look for a while, and she felt that the scene in front of her was very familiar, reminding her of the peach blossom behind Guangping Temple.There are no rules for the plum trees to be planted, as if a few were planted here and a few there, and when the trees grew and blossomed, they became one piece.

Going forward and passing through several trees, a stone table appeared in front of him. There were four stone benches around the stone table, and on one of them sat a monk wearing an eminent monk's cassock.

The monk had a kind face and kind eyes, which made people feel good. There was a small stove in front of him, and a pot of tea was boiled on the small stove.The fragrance of tea, accompanied by the fragrance of plum, overflows leisurely and makes people feel refreshed.

Brewing tea in the plum blossom forest is so elegant.

The monk looked at the two of them and said with a smile: "It is fate to meet each other. Poor monk Faru, I would like to invite the two Tanyues to have a cup of tea."

Is he Faru? The King of Han was surprised. Thinking that this person is more than a hundred years old, he couldn't help feeling embarrassed, and looked at the princess.Knowing that she was confused, the princess took her hand comfortingly and sat down on the stone bench.
