The moon comes to take pictures

And near the twelfth lunar month, snow falls in the south of the Yangtze River.

The fish pond in Lanquan Temple was covered with ice, and the monks held up the oars and knocked on it all morning. When the sun rose in the mountains, under the golden light, all the fish that had been hungry all night came out and waited for food with their mouths open.

Before it was the coldest time, the ice-knocking monk breathed the white mist, smelled the faint fragrance of plum blossoms in the temple, and turned his head to see someone approaching.

"Ning Tanyue." The monk put down the long oar and looked at the person coming.

White brocade shoes, vellus hair cloak, a golden lock vaguely hidden on the chest, white cheeks and cheeks, showing a pampered charm.

Ning Ruichen lowered his head slightly, his phoenix eyes were curved up, he may not be twenty, but there was a serenity in his eyes: "I'll feed the fish."

The monk clasped his palms together: "Tanyue, please go ahead, the young monk will go to cook the vegetarian meal first."

"Thank you, Master."

As soon as the monk left, the little boy beside Ning Ruichen fumbled to find fish food from his body: "When we were going out, the master specially called me over and told us to go home quickly after worshiping the Buddha."

"Yeah." Ning Ruichen didn't pay much attention, twirled the fish food, and saw the fish in the pond gradually gathering, splashing the water and fighting for food with their heads up.

"Master!" The little boy wrinkled his face, and there was no scruple between the master and the servant, "You are freezing outside, and when you go back, the master will expose Bao'er's skin!"

The tail of the fish in the pool was swaying, Ning Ruichen threw the fish food, and pretended to be cold: "The young master kindly brought you out to see the snow, and you are thinking about how the master will expose your skin. Besides, with the young master protecting you, what is there to be afraid of?" .”

Bao'er muttered: "Young master is not in good health..." No matter how smart he was, he was a child after all. In Jinling, it was really rare to see such a heavy snow, so he quickly threw himself on the plain white snow beside the fish pond. Like a dog let out a joy.

Lanquan Temple is very big, Bao'er didn't dare to go too far, and went back and forth to skim the snow and squeeze the ball by the edge of the fish pond.

With no one whispering in his ear, Ning Ruichen felt relieved, dipped his fingers under the water surface, and the slippery fish head came close to him.Playing for a while like a child, there was a melodious sound of clangs floating down from the top, it was windy, and the copper bells of several pagodas outside the wall couldn't stop ringing.

When the clear hum falls, the wonderland of Buddhism makes people forget the customs.At this time, there was a slight chatter in the wind, like a group of people talking in a low voice, Ning Ruichen couldn't help turning his head, and saw behind a yellow wall not far away, a piece of skirt floated from a round moon door, and then a The childish boy was wearing a girl's dress, smiling, and talking to the companion behind him.

Hurrah, a dozen children of the same age came out in a file. In front of them was a straight road leading to some meditation room.The monk led the way in front, without saying a word, a group of people passed by, and the last person walked out of the moon gate slowly.

With the plum blossom tree in front of him, Ning Ruichen couldn't see it very clearly, but his figure really looked like a clump of bamboo or a pine.Outside the folded branches, the thin and tough figure can only see an old washed winter coat. When the wind blows, he looks this way inexplicably.

Ning Ruichen couldn't dodge it in time, and suddenly looked at him vaguely.

How to describe this person, he has a cold expression, but he has the temperament of a literati, but it is far from the image of a scholar in his memory.Ning Ruichen felt strange, and heard the children in front stop and turn their heads, calling "Sir" crisply, and before they had time to figure out the relationship between them, a group of people huddled together and walked away.

There are only a few stars splashing water by the fish pond.The children who were chattering just now seemed like an unprovoked mirage in the cold weather.

Ning Ruichen threw a piece of fish food, as if he was tired, and asked Bao'er next to him: "What do those people who went there just now do?"

When he asked this, Bao'er might not know, but it was very strange. He felt that the doubt could be dispelled only by asking.

"When I came in, I heard that it was the eunuch Chang who invited me to sing the song. She is proficient in playing lyrics and drama." The Knorr team."

"So it's like this, you can sing in the temple?" Ning Ruichen glanced at the pool, where the big koi poked their heads, grabbing a piece of food.He tilted his head and smiled, and he didn't know who he was laughing at. He grabbed the bait and threw it into the water, and there was another rattling sound.

Bao'er held up the snow, and seeing the water marks on her palm, she pouted: "Singing is of course not allowed, but the backside of the temple has built a waterside stage for them, maybe it's here to use plain Fast, abnormal eunuch this person..."

Bao'er was eloquent, but Ning Ruichen was in a daze. After a while, the sound of water in the pool woke him up, "Is there a stage behind the temple?"

"Hey, how can I avoid the vulgarity now..." Bao'er wiped off the water on the corner of her robe, and now she felt cold, and rubbed her hands: "When will the young master finish feeding the fish, let's go into the monk's room to warm up by the fire."

"If you are afraid of the cold, go in first."

Bao'er shook her head: "That won't work, I'm not here, someone will take the opportunity to bully the young master."

"Who dares to be presumptuous here." Ning Ruichen brushed away the residue from his palm, watching the fish gradually disperse.In the gray sky, suddenly there was a long ringing of the bell, and a flock of black birds flew into the sky, and the bell stopped after three rings. This was to tell the pilgrims in the temple that the morning meal was ready.

Ning Ruichen rolled up his cuffs, his cheeks were blown pale by the wind, and was about to speak, when a high-pitched voice suddenly rose from the oblique spine: "Nephew!"

Bao'er was startled, and stared there.

Soon, the child realized that the sharp voice was an eunuch.The thick and colorful clothes that were rarely seen in the temple flashed loudly, and Bao'er stopped immediately, and lowered his head to move closer to Ning Ruichen.

"Chang Dugong." Ning Ruichen smiled and walked a few steps closer.

A dozen or so young eunuchs in blue and white clothes gathered at some unknown time, and in the middle stood a fiery red eunuch.His face was ruddy, his chin was slightly rounded, he had a roughly erect appearance, but he opened a pair of juvenile almond eyes, and stood there with his whole body, with an imposing aura of wealth and honor, this is Chang Xi, the Nanjing defense official.It is said that he is domineering and loves extravagance, which is normal, there is no eunuch who is not domineering.

"I'm sorry, your father and I are old acquaintances." Chang Xi dragged his tone and handed the stove affectionately.

Ning Ruichen bowed slightly: "Thank you, Mr. Chang."

This is still out of the ordinary, but it sounds closer than "Duke Gong", Chang Xi waved his hand and said, "Nephew is also here to make offerings? The bell for fasting just rang, let's go and use it together."

The little eunuchs next to him were all listening to Yin'er, ready to open the way for someone.Unexpectedly, Ning Ruichen held the hand stove and handed it to Bao'er next to him: "I should have been cherished by Mr. Chang, but the family is really in a hurry. I prayed to Buddha this morning, so I should go home."

Not too tactfully refused, the little eunuchs around did not move, but they all sensed Chang Xi's displeasure.

No one made a sound first, in the icy wind, Bao'er couldn't help shivering from the cold.

"It's a pity." Chang Xi's complexion didn't change much, her rosy mouth was still upturned, she just stared at Bao'er and said, "Your father is stubborn, go back and persuade him, that's not the case, why can't you return to Beijing for so long."
