In April of the tenth year of Zaisheng, Master Huining passed away in his place of meditation.

When the news reached the palace, Mrs. Huining's body had already been buried in the crabapple field that she had carefully tended over the years.

The little nun who came to the palace to deliver the message said that Master Huining's last words were not to enter the emperor's tomb, the ancestor's tomb, or the concubine's tomb, and there was no need for filial piety or funeral ceremonies. A little bit, let alone a little bit in the palace.

The Son of Heaven, King Ning, the Concubine, the Princess and others brought their families to mourn without even displaying the guard of honor. They left the imperial city at night and arrived at the mountain where Master Hui Ning lived quietly at dawn.

Mrs. Huining passed away almost nothing, only a string of prayer beads that had been used for more than [-] years was left for her eldest daughter Gu Jin, and a longevity lamp that belonged to Yunyao was left for her. Emperor Gu Xiu's.

Other than that, nothing else.

Throughout Master Huining's life, Meng Xuefu, no one can tell whether her life is worthwhile or not, good or bad.

She was originally the daughter of Prince Rong'an's concubine and Dingguo Gong Meng Cen. There are three older brothers in the Meng family. She grew up under the care of thousands of pets and loves. The most beautiful, most enviable and even jealous official lady in the capital.

In this way, she was supposed to marry a son of a well-matched family in a safe and stable way, have children in a safe and stable way, and in her later years, her children and grandchildren would live comfortably and richly.

But she fell in love with the person she shouldn't be emotionally attached to the most, and for this person, she willingly married the most hypocritical and indifferent man in the world.

After getting married, she was cowardly by nature and couldn't bear the title of the crown prince and concubine at all, nor could she restrain the beauties in the prince's mansion who had their own thoughts. She could only hide behind her lover and live in those hypocritical calculations all day long. .

Later, her lover was also let down, and died in vain in the northern wilderness where there was no grass and snow all the year round.Her first child, the child who could talk, laugh, write, recite poems and call her mother, was also buried in the hands of those who did anything for imperial power.Even if she is the most honorable woman in this dynasty, she is helpless in the face of the death of her child and the departure of her lover.

She was desperate, as cowardly as she was, she could only think of escaping, escaping from everything she didn't want to face, and paralyzed herself with Sanskrit Zen words all day long.

It wasn't until her lover's flesh and blood returned to Miyagi that the hope in her heart was rekindled.She used the only power in her hands to push her lover's flesh and blood to the supreme position, and then guarded her lover's spiritual position until the end of her life.

Meng Xuefu's life is over, she has been let down too many times in this life, but the only thing she feels owed is her eldest daughter.

Her eldest daughter is so slim, elegant, dignified and gentle, tolerant and tough, tolerant and kind, her eldest daughter is different from her, she bears the phoenix crown on her head, and is responsible as the princess of the country. .In the days when she was not protected by her biological mother, she used her wings to protect those weak little brothers, allowing them to enjoy a moment of tenderness in the cold palace wall.

It is also because of this that everyone ignores that Gu Jin can be naive, flamboyant, and pampered in the first place.

The princess of Guochao is not born to be a princess, the princess is born to be just a little girl who loves red, pink, fragrance and jade.

Meng Xuefu left, and buried under her lover's favorite crabapple tree, and turned into a pile of soil, silently blending into the vast mountains and rivers of Dazhou.

Buddha's afterlife, causal cycle.

She didn't know what karma she had planted in her previous life to produce today's karma.

If she really owed her, she must have paid off by guarding her spiritual seat for the last nearly 20 years and lighting the longevity lamp for her every day.

If there is really hope for a comeback, she is still willing to meet her, the most beautiful and bright woman in the world.

***

Because of the sudden death of Mrs. Hui Ning, Princess Ning Xu Jingrou, who has always been considerate, was worried that Princess Qingzhao would feel depressed due to the loss of her mother, so she forcibly dragged Princess Qingzhao Gu Jin under the banner of going to Nanyang to do goods. Going out to relax, even the son-in-law Zhuo Yi and three children were thrown in Bianjing City.

Xu Jingrou said: Eldest sister has been in Beijing for many years, she has been worrying about royal affairs, and never had a good time.So this time she and Princess Qingzhao left Beijing for a visit, no matter what the return date is, if they had a good time, they might not come back for a year or so.

In May of that year, Ning Wang Guyou sent away his beloved wife and elder sister tearfully, returned to the palace and cried for half an hour before being kicked by his mother and concubine to the princess mansion to pick him up and stay with his father Gu Xican, the little princess in Bianjing City.

The five-year-old little princess has been held in the hands of these parents and brothers like a baby since the day she was born. She really wanted the stars but not the moon, and the sun and not the stars.

Except for Princess Qingzhao, the biological mother, no one wanted to restrain this little guy, and everyone tried to make her happy and make her happy.

When Princess Qingzhao was around, these parents still had a little bit of fear. They were afraid of Princess Qingzhao's threat and dared not pamper their young daughter too much.As soon as Princess Qingzhao left, everyone came out of the cage like a trapped bird, completely freeing themselves.

On the first day after Princess Qingzhao left, Concubine Jin took the little guy to Prince Ning's mansion, and watched the trick all night with her arms around the little princess who was so excited that she didn't want to fall asleep.

On the fifth day after Princess Qingzhao left, Prince Heng took his newly married wife Meng Tong to pick up his young sister to the northern suburbs. When they came back, they bought three bottles of huge stone beasts. I want to put it in the mansion.

On the tenth day after Princess Qingzhao left, the Emperor Chao and Prince Ning Yi personally took the little princess to the market in Bianjing City, and no one was allowed to clean the streets. Wherever he is commanding him to go, he will go there.His Royal Highness King Ning followed beside him, and behind him were two servants carrying money boxes. The little princess said she wanted it, and he immediately paid the money and wrapped up the entire booth for her.

Among this group of parents, only Taifu Han is a special case.

When everyone was busy taking the little princess on a tour of mountains and rivers, eating fat and drinking fat.Taifu Han only ordered people to find a seven-stringed guqin from the warehouse in the palace. After cooperating with the king to manage the government every day, he plucked the strings and tuned the rhythm in the Yangyi residence.

In the afternoon of this day, Gu Xiu also rested in the Yangyi Residence to read a book.

Unexpectedly, Han Mochu was wearing a dark robe and playing the piano with plain hands, which really made him unable to concentrate. He read a page of the book five or six times over and over again, but he didn't even understand what was written on the first line.

"If your majesty doesn't care about reading, come here. Why are the scrolls so innocent? How could they have been ground like that by your majesty?" Han Mochu stopped playing the qin, packed up the pen and ink beside him to record the melody, and made room for Gu Xiu to come out. .

Gu Xiu, who was summoned, immediately closed the crumpled book in his hand, walked to the person, and hugged the person's back very naturally: "How can Ziran be in such a good mood these days, thinking of playing the piano? "

"Isn't the little princess going to be enlightened after the new year? Those papers and dogmas are inevitably boring, so I thought about compiling these enlightenment books into tunes, and then the musicians in the palace would sing them. When the little princess is enlightened in the next year, she will also be able to learn them." It's easier." Han Mo leaned back at Chuqing, raised the corner of his mouth and smiled warmly: "Your Majesty can hear the melody now? How do you feel?"

"Oh, Mr. Yi'an became famous at a young age, and he is proficient in all six arts. The melody composed by Mr. Yi'an himself is always good." Gu Xiu sighed softly, and there was an unknown amount of bitterness in his sigh: "After so many years, I have never heard of Ziran playing the piano."

"For so many years, I have never heard His Majesty sigh." Han Mochu bluntly said with a smile: "Could it be possible that Your Majesty will still be jealous of the little princess?"

"I'm not jealous, I just thought that both enlightenment and teaching are the same, why have I and Yucheng never heard Mrs. Han playing the piano, nor have I heard that clerical dogmas can be sung and recited?" Gu Xiu said. , and directly spread his left hand on the qin platform in front of Han Mochu: "When I was reciting the book, I only knew that I made a mistake, so I took a note."

"Your Majesty, is this going to settle the old dispute with the minister again?" Han Mochu raised his hand and patted Gu Xiu's palm lightly, and accidentally hooked it on the strings of the zither and let out a short buzzing sound: "Your Majesty and His Royal Highness are both men, my little one." The princess is a daughter's family, so the daughter's family should be enlightened like this, if His Majesty thinks it's unfair, then he will become a daughter's family in the next life, and at that time, I will compose music for His Majesty and teach His Majesty how to recite it."

Gu Xiu closed his eyes and hugged Han Mochu's back, his ears were filled with what Han Mochu said about this life and the afterlife, he felt warm in his heart, and unconsciously clinging closer to others: "Zi Ran, let me caress you for a while. "

"Okay, what does Yunchi want to hear?" Han Mochu's fingertips quickly brushed over the strings, and the sound of the strings was crisp and clear, like the tinkling of spring water.

"Everything is fine. I'm not very proficient in rhythm." After Gu Xiu finished speaking, he let go of Han Mochu's back, turned his body sideways and leaned down on his pillow, and lay on his back on Han Mochu's cross-legged lap with peace of mind. Every breath is filled with the faint fragrance of paper and ink on that person: "As long as Ziran plays the piano, I like to listen to everything."

"Okay, Your Majesty must concentrate when listening to the qin, and you must stop peeking at me." Han Mochu said in a low voice, stroking the strings of the qin, and the melodious sound of the qin made people listen attentively.

His piano skills were not taught by Mr. Yi Wei, but he learned from a piano teacher in the piano hall in Guangling City when he was young.

In fact, he didn't need to learn the piano.It's just because there are many poets and poets on Huainan Road at that time, and everyone loves to be arty.If he wants to stand out from this group of people, he must truly be proficient in all six arts without any shortcomings.

At that time, he didn't know that one day he would become the little prince's junior teacher, and would have the opportunity to enter the palace to accompany him for the rest of his life.

He just wanted to make himself strong as soon as possible, strong enough to be seen by the king, strong enough to take care of both kindness and hatred on his own.

Thinking about it now, in the end it was the curtain from the sky that gave him and Gu Xiu a chance.
