The two were silent, Qi Zhinian looked down at their shadows on the ground.
It was Qi Zhinian who spoke first, and he whispered: "I'm sorry, I didn't deliberately lie to you before... I just didn't dare to say it, I was afraid that you would hate me after you knew who I was... I was even more afraid that you would hate me ... I have lived in the British government since I was a child, although my mother told me that this is not my home, and you are not my father.
"But I always hear them say behind my back that you are my father. They think I am still young and I don't understand... As time goes on, I don't know who I am... Everyone loves to mention it so much You, curiosity has occupied my heart day by day, and you are so outstanding, before I know it, my curiosity has gradually turned into admiration..."
Speaking of this, Qi Zhinian smiled embarrassedly: "Yes, even though I have never met you... I think every day what kind of person you will be, and you will really be me Is your father? Just like that, day after day, I grow up slowly, and I still have never seen you...
"I don't like to go out to play, I don't like to make friends, I just like to stay at home and study. My husband told me how good your knowledge is, and the mother at home also said how smart you are, and I would think again, when will I I can also be like you... When I am as good as you, will you be willing to come and see me?"
"...I don't know what I'm talking about, I'm sorry, I really didn't mean to lie to you... I'm afraid that if you know who I am, you will ignore me immediately, I just want to talk to you more, Spend more time with you even for a moment..."
Speaking of this, the sourness in Qi Zhinian's heart welled up again, as if he remembered those days and nights when he was growing up who worshiped and yearned for Qi Huai.
Qi Huai let out a long sigh.
Fortunately, he thought that Qi Zhinian might also have a little affection for him.
After all, he was arrogant.
How can such a young child understand love with such a pure white piece of paper?
It turned out that in Qi Zhinian's eyes, he was indeed just a trustworthy elder.
Qi Huai smiled wryly, with bitterness in his mouth.
Qi Zhinian was so sad that he almost cried, he raised his head, laughed, then lowered his head, looked at Qi Huai and said, "I don't know what happened back then, and I don't ask for your forgiveness, I just want to thank you You are willing to give me and my mother such a safe haven, thank you for protecting us for so many years..."
"The next road, we will go by ourselves..."
Qi Zhinian almost couldn't continue, he stood up, didn't even dare to look at Qi Huai anymore, looked at his toes and said, "I'm leaving, I'm leaving tomorrow, I'm sorry, thank you!!"
After speaking, Qi Zhinian turned around and ran away.
The moment he turned around, tears fell, Qi Zhinian covered his face with one hand and ran vigorously, like a cloud that was drifting away quickly, it disappeared from Qi Huai's vision in a blink of an eye.
Qi Huai leaned back, leaning his back on the pillar of the veranda, he looked up at the sky, the moon was hanging alone in the sky, no longer accompanied by clouds.
Obviously the flower shadows are so noisy, and the moonlight is so graceful.
Why is he so sad.
At night, Jiang Qiniang and the others had already rested, Qi Zhinian couldn't fall asleep, and sat by the window looking at the moon in the sky in a daze.
He has watched the moon here for 16 years, and tonight is the last time.
Suddenly there was a soft sound, Qi Zhinian came back to his senses, and saw a figure looming from the base of the wall, he immediately stood up, poked his head out, and it was Qi Huai he saw!
Qi Zhinian was shocked, Qi Huai walked to his window and whispered, "Take you somewhere."
"I, I'm leaving tomorrow..." Qi Zhinian subconsciously refused.
"It won't delay your leaving, come." After saying that, Qi Huai reached out to the window and hugged him out, completely unrefusable.
Qi Zhi was young and easily carried out by Qi Huai. In fact, Qi Zhinian knew that he was very willing to stay by Qi Huai's side forever in his heart. He wanted to see him every day, but reason and reality did not allow it.
At this time, the moon is hazy, and they will leave tomorrow.
So irrational this time?
In fact, Qi Zhinian's thoughts at this time were of no use at all, Qi Huai made it clear that he wanted to take him away.
After Qi Huai carried him out, he let go of him, took his hand and walked straight out. Qingyin lives on the west side of the British residence, very close to the west gate, they went out directly from the west gate, Qi Zhinian no longer wanted to ask Wherever Qi Huai wants to take him, anyway, he is willing to do anything in the last few hours.
There was a carriage parked outside the door, Qi Huai carried him onto it first, and then followed him into the carriage.
Qi Huai didn't follow in, but with a flick of the pole, the carriage ran out directly.
Qi Zhinian poked his head out immediately, looked left and right, and asked doubtfully, "Brother Cheng, aren't you here?"
"No."
"...Just the two of us?"
"Yes."
"Where are we... going?"
"You will know when you go."
"……Oh."
Qi Huai didn't speak any more, it was a bit different from usual, usually when the two of them get along in private, Qi Huai would always tease Qi Zhinian, but now he didn't say a word, he was a little cold, Qi Zhinian was uncomfortable and at the same time, I feel inexplicably at ease again.
Qi Huai drove the car extremely fast, he said to Qi Zhinian: "Sit down."
Qi Zhinian moved out slowly, and sat down beside him: "I'll accompany you outside."
"Isn't it cold?" Qi Huai looked at him sideways, the wind in the spring night was still quite cold.
Qi Zhinian smiled and shook his head at him.
"Then sit down." After finishing speaking, Qi Huai whipped out the whip, and the speed of the car was even faster.
The street scene on both sides retreated rapidly, and the sound of the wind passed by his ears clearly. Qi Zhinian felt that he had never seen a more beautiful Kyoto than tonight.
When it was almost midnight, there was no one on the street, but the carriage approached towards the city gate.
Qi Zhinian secretly wondered, is he going out of the city?
Then the carriage stopped at the base of the city wall, Qi Huai grabbed the reins, and after stopping, he jumped off the carriage first, turned around and stretched out his hand to Qi Zhinian: "Come on."
Qi Zhinian took his hand and jumped to the ground.
Qi Huai held his hand behind his back and went directly to the tower, where there were guards guarding the gate and patrolling. When he saw Qi Huai approaching, he bent down with a smile and said, "Your Majesty has ordered you to come, please. -"
After the gates of the city are closed, no one can leave the city. This is something written into the law, unless something extremely important happens.
According to what the guards said, Qi Huai actually told the emperor about this in advance?Just to get out of the city, won't it arouse the emperor's suspicion?
Will the emperor want to harm Qi Huai even more?
Qi Zhinian's thoughts drifted away all of a sudden, but luckily Qi Huai still dragged him out of the city through the side door on the other side of the tower.
There was actually a carriage there, Qi Zhinian had no idea what it was going to do.
But Qi Huai never spoke, he still didn't ask, obediently climbed into the carriage, sat beside Qi Huai to accompany him, and walked for about half an hour before he gradually became familiar with the road in front of him.
This is the road leading to Yunshan Temple.
In Kyoto, the temple with the highest standard is of course the royal temple Huguo Temple, but the most famous one is Yunshan Temple. No matter whether you are rich or poor, everyone loves to go to Yunshan Temple.
Qi Zhinian has no friends anymore, and at this age, he always travels with people a few times. One spring, he was brought to Yunshan Temple and ate the vegetarian food there.
The vegetarian food in Yunshan Temple is delicious and the scenery is even better.
Qi Zhinian had a good impression of Yunshan Temple, but he didn't know why Qi Huai brought him to Yunshan Temple?
Yunshan Temple is on the top of a mountain that is not very high. For the sake of sincerity, the way up from the foot of the mountain can only be walked. Qi Huai parked the carriage at the foot of the mountain and took Qi Zhinian up the mountain together.
The mountain road was inevitably bumpy, and the night was too dark, so Qi Zhinian walked crookedly.
Whenever he was about to fall, Qi Huai would always reach out to stabilize his arm, and later Qi Huai simply half-supported him to walk up the mountain, Qi Zhinian was much more relaxed and never fell again.
The two came to the gate of the temple, but the door was tightly closed.
"The door hasn't been opened yet."
"Well, let's wait for a while. After an hour, the master will get up for morning class."
"Oh!" Qi Zhinian was not afraid to wait, in the land of Buddhism, there is nothing wrong with being more devout.
A very tall and luxuriant bodhi tree was planted in front of the gate of Yunshan Temple. Qi Zhinian suddenly thought of the nameless temple in the depths of the Fragrant Snow Sea that night when he first saw Qi Huai. That time, it was also at night, and the gate was tightly closed, but Qingfeng and Langyue still gave me a lot of medicine...Later, Langyue told me that it was actually you who asked them to pack it for me."
Qi Zhinian looked at Qi Huai: "Thank you...you are really a very, very good person."
Qi Huai was amused in his heart, if someone else said that, he might think it was hypocrisy.
Qi Zhinian said this, but he was very useful.
In this world, people who think he is a good person used to have only one mother, but now there is one more.
Qi Huai didn't restrain himself anymore, and rubbed his head, after all, he didn't have many chances.
Qi Zhinian smiled, and said again: "Fortunately, I was the only one who found the mountain in the middle of the night, otherwise you would have given out a lot of medicine."
Qi Huai asked back, "Why should I help them?"
"Uh, you helped me."
Qi Huai smiled and said directly: "Did you feel anything wrong that night?"
As he spoke, he pointed to the bodhi tree.
Qi Zhinian thought about it carefully, and his eyes lit up: "I remembered! That day I always felt that the pine tree in front of the Taoist temple was ringing, but when I looked up, there was nothing! No way—"
Qi Huai nodded: "I'm on the tree."
"..."
"I'm not the nice guy you think I am."
Qi Huai added another sentence in his heart: I just treat you well.
Qi Zhinian seemed to retort, but Qi Huai refused to listen, and asked him, "Why don't you sit on the tree for a while? We can wait for the sunrise."
"It's better not to, this is the bodhi tree, the place where the Buddha sits quietly, we sit on it, but we don't respect the Bodhisattva!" Qi Zhinian said very seriously.
It made Qi Huai laugh, and he pointed to a tree farther away: "I'm talking about that one, it just faces the east."
"... Oh." Qi Zhinian was a little embarrassed.
Qi Huai was still laughing at the beginning, laughing and laughing, but his heart became unhappy again, and there were only a few hours left to watch.
He sighed, walked under the tree with Qi Zhinian, jumped up the tree with Qi Zhinian, let Qi Zhinian sit on the inside of the branch, he sat next to Qi Zhinian, wanting to What to say, actually found that there is no way to talk about it.
Qi Zhinian was the same, suddenly there was silence around him, the night on the mountain was very quiet, he also wanted to say something, but because he wanted to say too much, too much, he couldn't say a word.
The two of them sat shoulder to shoulder, looking at the east, and it seemed that they didn't wait too long, and everything around them began to change slowly.
First, in the Yunshan Temple on the left, the lights began to light up one by one, and then dense but slight footsteps sounded, and the birds in the forest also sounded one by one, and the whiteness of the sky was smudged layer by layer.
Finally, "Om--", the morning bell of Yunshan Temple rang, and the sound of wooden fish and chanting came one after another.
The gold border in the distance has already rolled over Qi Zhinian and Qi Huai's bodies.
"Crackling——" the ancient gate of Yunshan Temple was slowly opened, and a new day began.
The day when Qi Zhinian left also arrived.
Qi Huai jumped back to the ground with Qi Zhinian in his arms, and led him into Yunshan Temple.
Qi Huai asked to see the abbot, and a quarter of an hour later, in the Zen room, they waited for the abbot. The abbot looked very kind, said "Amitabha", and asked with a smile, "What's the donor's business?"
After finishing speaking, the abbot also smiled at Qi Zhinian.
Qi Huai took out a purse from his sleeve pocket, and a Jade Guanyin from his pocket, and handed it to the abbot: "Please ask the abbot to consecrate this Jade Guanyin."
"Amitabha, the almsgiver sit and wait for a while." The abbot took the purse, turned around and left the meditation room.
"..." Qi Zhinian watched the door open and close dully.
Qi Huai took a sip of tea but didn't speak.
Qi Zhinian looked down at his hands on his knees. He heard the sound of chanting sutras and the laughter of Shangxiang people in the distance. He twisted his hands together.
Until the abbot came back again, he solemnly returned Jade Guanyin to Qi Huai.
Qi Huai got up to thank him, the abbot smiled and said "Amitabha" again, and then left.
Qi Huai turned his head, looked at Qi Zhinian who was sitting there in a daze, and stretched out his hand towards him, Qi Zhinian was a few beats behind in reacting, puzzled, Qi Huai took Qi Zhinian's hand, and took the Jade Avalokitesvara Put it in his palm.
Yu Guanyin was cold, Qi Huai's hands were even colder, but Qi Zhinian felt his palms were hot.
"Let's go. I left a letter when I came. I'm afraid they have already left. I'll send you to meet them."
After Qi Huai finished speaking, he stepped out of the meditation room.
Qi Zhinian clenched Jade Avalokitesvara tightly in his hand, and followed them out. The two walked out of Yunshan Temple one after the other. Before getting into the carriage, Qi Zhinian gritted his teeth, his voice even trembling: "I, I can, I can Can I give you a hug..."
Qi Huai looked back at him, and Qi Zhinian looked at him nervously.
Just when Qi Zhinian thought that Qi Huai was about to refuse, Qi Huai suddenly walked up to him and held him in his arms with open arms. Qi Zhinian wanted to look up, but Qi Huai held his head in his arms.
Soon, Qi Huai let go of him, carried him into the car, and pushed him into the car.
"Let's go." He pressed his back against the door of the carriage to prevent Qi Zhinian from coming out again, and drove the carriage down the mountain.
Sure enough, after going down the mountain and walking along the road for a few miles, Qi Zhinian saw a few carriages parked by the side of the road through the window, and Qi Huai's voice sounded from outside the carriage: "It's a long journey, donkey carts don't It's too safe, I've arranged two carriages. After you leave, I will ask someone to take care of the mother and daughter of the Lin family. I asked him what he meant, and he is willing to follow you from now on. The deed is with Mother Fan. Here Mother Fan offered 1 taels, don’t refuse, this is what mother meant. The prince lost a lot of property, which was piled up in the car. Mother also gave Fan mother a few posts written by herself. Eyes, just use them."
"..." Qi Zhinian bowed his head. When he heard the first sentence, he was just surprised, then grateful, and then guilty. When Qi Huai finished speaking and stopped talking, all he had left was sad.
There was no moment that made him understand more than this moment.
They are really leaving.
Even though he was wearing white clothes, the tear stains on the clothes were already obvious, Qi Zhinian wiped away the tears with the back of his hand, he wanted to tell Qi Huai that he knew it all, and also wanted to ask Qi Huai not to worry, they would live well.
When he opened his mouth, he almost let out a whimper, and he hurriedly shut up again.
And the carriage has gradually stopped.
"Get out of the car."
Qi Zhinian took a deep breath, wiped his face with his sleeves vigorously, and then opened the door to get out of the car. He didn't dare to look at Qi Huai, and avoided looking in another direction, but saw the eldest princess in ordinary clothes, He was a little surprised, he didn't expect the eldest princess to come too.
The eldest princess looked at Qi Huai, walked up to Qi Zhinian, and said rare and warm words in her usual high-ranking tone: "Don't be so stupid when you are outside, all the posts I wrote are with Mother Fan , write to me when you run out.”
"..." Qi Zhinian nodded vigorously.
"Let's go early while there are few people at this time."
After all, the eldest princess stepped aside, Qi Zhinian bent down to give the eldest princess a deep salute, and when he was about to turn around, his figure froze slightly, whether he was looking at Qi Huai, in order not to cry, his eyes closed Blinking vigorously, contemplating for a long time, only said three words: "I'm leaving..."
Qi Huai smiled at him: "Let's go."
Qi Zhinian bit his lip, took a few steps to the carriage, and hurriedly climbed into the carriage.
Mother Fan also came forward to salute them, Xiao Wu was a little ignorant, but followed suit, Huang Lian who left with them said with a smile: "Don't worry, I will take good care of them."
The eldest princess nodded, and they all got into the carriage, Xiao Wu flicked his whip, and the two carriages headed east one by one.
The carriage got farther and farther away, and the eldest princess asked, "Are you willing?"
Qi Huai, who was standing right behind her, said with a wry smile: "In his eyes, I'm just a symbol of his father, nothing more."
The eldest princess looked back at him, she sighed, and patted his shoulder: "Go back."
Sending the eldest princess back to the mansion, Qi Huai went to the palace first, and then acted with the emperor for a while. After all, the Marquis of Qingning was not completely dismissed. Later, because the prince pleaded for mercy, the emperor just demoted him to Qing Ning Bo, the Jiang family is very grateful to the prince, and probably hates Qi Huai too much.
Qi Huai didn't care at all.
The father and son each have their own thoughts, what kind of drama they are doing, and what their own ideas are, doesn't he know?
So he praised the prince vigorously, saying that he has the style of the first emperor, and he deserves to be the prince hand-picked by the first emperor.
This is also another place where the emperor was very angry. In fact, this crown prince was not wanted by him, but by the late emperor!
The first emperor's last decree hand-picked the prince as the prince, and the emperor delayed it for several years, until he couldn't delay it any longer, and he couldn't grasp the handle of the prince, so he had to make the prince the prince.
He is well-behaved as an emperor, what kind of prince should he be?
Curse yourself to die early? !
Besides, his crown prince should have been established by himself!
Qi Huai laughed in his heart when he saw his expression changing, but he was forcibly suppressing it.
With this kind of heart, I dare to imitate other people's thinking.
The emperor was not happy, and naturally he didn't want Qi Huai to be happy, he said: "Oh, Brother Nian is gone, right? Actually, if I want to tell you, what's the point of recording him in the Qi family's genealogy? After all, he has been raised for many years. My child, I can't bear it."
"Sigh." Qi Huai sighed deeply, "Uncle, it's not like you don't know the secret behind it."
The emperor thought that Qi Huai actually hated Qi Zhinian, so he wanted to boast: "Brother Nian is such a good child, because you have a good family education, the queen has always missed him, and even wanted to call him Xiao Wushang, the same child , what do you say you care about!"
Qi Huai pretended to be sullen and refused to speak.
The emperor felt relieved, so he let him go. Hearing that Qi Huai "quietly" went up the mountain just after leaving the palace, he was even more delighted, thinking that Qi Huai was completely depressed.
Xu Yan is coming back soon, Qi Huai is going up the mountain to wait for him.
In the secret room of the Taoist temple, he met "Qi Huai", and after saying what he should say, "Qi Huai" said: "Master Guo, a young man came to look for you earlier."
Qi Huai knew about this matter, and the guards said it.
He nodded, not paying much attention to it, but "Qi Huai" went on to say: "He can recognize that I'm not you."
Qi Huai raised his head to look at him, his originally lazy eyes became extraordinarily sharp.
"Qi Huai" felt cold all over his body, and immediately said: "I have never made any mistakes, even the crane you raised didn't see the difference, but the young man just took one look at me and knew that I was not you, and even questioned me." Where have you been?"
Qi Huai frowned, he believed what "Qi Huai" said, but, how could Qi Zhinian recognize that it wasn't him?
This is simply too unbelievable.
"Qi Huai" looked at his expression, and asked cautiously: "Master, what kind of important person is that young man?"
Qi Huai remained silent.
To him, Qi Zhinian is like a treasure that needs to be treasured, and he just wants to hide it where no one can see it.
Therefore, this is also a feeling that he will never be able to share with others, including his double.
His substitute was after he was born, and his father realized that something was wrong, so he asked the master to find this boy who was the same age as him but looked very similar.
I grew up with him when I was young, but he changed his appearance. He never went out with Qi Huai, and worked as a book boy for him at home. He learned everything from Qi Huai. When he was 12 years old, he "died" for a very reasonable reason. In fact, he went to Jiangxuemen and continued to learn the kung fu from his master Qi Huai.
When he went to Jiangxuemen to remove the disguise, even the master couldn't recognize him, thinking that Qi Huai had sneaked in.
Before his father died, he had seen him once.
The two of them stood next to each other, and my father couldn't make out who was who.
This is the only person who has identified the two of them in 33 years.
This is also the only person Qi Huai has moved his heart for in the past 33 years.
Such a person, he really wants to let him go?
When did he, Qi Huai, become so kind?Do you only care about other people's feelings, but completely ignore your own?
He wants to let such a person leave his world and spend his life with others in a place he will never see again?
Qi Huai stood up suddenly.
"Master!" "Qi Huai" hastily called him to stop.
Qi Huai has strode away.
The author has something to say:
感谢在2021-11-2621:43:14~2021-11-2722:08:47期间为我投出霸王票或灌溉营养液的小天使哦~

Thank you very much for your support, I will continue to work hard!
It was Qi Zhinian who spoke first, and he whispered: "I'm sorry, I didn't deliberately lie to you before... I just didn't dare to say it, I was afraid that you would hate me after you knew who I was... I was even more afraid that you would hate me ...

"I don't like to go out to play, I don't like to make friends, I just like to stay at home and study.

"The next road, we will go by ourselves..."
Qi Zhinian almost couldn't continue, he stood up, didn't even dare to look at Qi Huai anymore, looked at his toes and said, "I'm leaving, I'm leaving tomorrow, I'm sorry, thank you!!"
After speaking, Qi Zhinian turned around and ran away.
The moment he turned around, tears fell, Qi Zhinian covered his face with one hand and ran vigorously, like a cloud that was drifting away quickly, it disappeared from Qi Huai's vision in a blink of an eye.
Qi Huai leaned back, leaning his back on the pillar of the veranda, he looked up at the sky, the moon was hanging alone in the sky, no longer accompanied by clouds.
Obviously the flower shadows are so noisy, and the moonlight is so graceful.
Why is he so sad.
At night, Jiang Qiniang and the others had already rested, Qi Zhinian couldn't fall asleep, and sat by the window looking at the moon in the sky in a daze.

Qi Huai drove the car extremely fast, he said to Qi Zhinian: "Sit down."
Qi Zhinian moved out slowly, and sat down beside him: "I'll accompany you outside."
"Isn't it cold?" Qi Huai looked at him sideways, the wind in the spring night was still quite cold.
Qi Zhinian smiled and shook his head at him.
"Then sit down." After finishing speaking, Qi Huai whipped out the whip, and the speed of the car was even faster.
The street scene on both sides retreated rapidly, and the sound of the wind passed by his ears clearly. Qi Zhinian felt that he had never seen a more beautiful Kyoto than tonight.

This is the road leading to Yunshan Temple.
In Kyoto, the temple with the highest standard is of course the royal temple Huguo Temple, but the most famous one is Yunshan Temple. No matter whether you are rich or poor, everyone loves to go to Yunshan Temple.
Qi Zhinian has no friends anymore, and at this age, he always travels with people a few times. One spring, he was brought to Yunshan Temple and ate the vegetarian food there.
The vegetarian food in Yunshan Temple is delicious and the scenery is even better.
Qi Zhinian had a good impression of Yunshan Temple, but he didn't know why Qi Huai brought him to Yunshan Temple?
Yunshan Temple is on the top of a mountain that is not very high. For the sake of sincerity, the way up from the foot of the mountain can only be walked. Qi Huai parked the carriage at the foot of the mountain and took Qi Zhinian up the mountain together.
The mountain road was inevitably bumpy, and the night was too dark, so Qi Zhinian walked crookedly.
Whenever he was about to fall, Qi Huai would always reach out to stabilize his arm, and later Qi Huai simply half-supported him to walk up the mountain, Qi Zhinian was much more relaxed and never fell again.
The two came to the gate of the temple, but the door was tightly closed.
"The door hasn't been opened yet."
"Well, let's wait for a while. After an hour, the master will get up for morning class."
"Oh!" Qi Zhinian was not afraid to wait, in the land of Buddhism, there is nothing wrong with being more devout.
A very tall and luxuriant bodhi tree was planted in front of the gate of Yunshan Temple. Qi Zhinian suddenly thought of the nameless temple in the depths of the Fragrant Snow Sea that night when he first saw Qi Huai. That time, it was also at night, and the gate was tightly closed, but Qingfeng and Langyue still gave me a lot of medicine...Later, Langyue told me that it was actually you who asked them to pack it for me."
Qi Zhinian looked at Qi Huai: "Thank you...you are really a very, very good person."
Qi Huai was amused in his heart, if someone else said that, he might think it was hypocrisy.
Qi Zhinian said this, but he was very useful.
In this world, people who think he is a good person used to have only one mother, but now there is one more.
Qi Huai didn't restrain himself anymore, and rubbed his head, after all, he didn't have many chances.
Qi Zhinian smiled, and said again: "Fortunately, I was the only one who found the mountain in the middle of the night, otherwise you would have given out a lot of medicine."
Qi Huai asked back, "Why should I help them?"
"Uh, you helped me."
Qi Huai smiled and said directly: "Did you feel anything wrong that night?"
As he spoke, he pointed to the bodhi tree.
Qi Zhinian thought about it carefully, and his eyes lit up: "I remembered! That day I always felt that the pine tree in front of the Taoist temple was ringing, but when I looked up, there was nothing! No way—"
Qi Huai nodded: "I'm on the tree."
"..."
"I'm not the nice guy you think I am."
Qi Huai added another sentence in his heart: I just treat you well.
Qi Zhinian seemed to retort, but Qi Huai refused to listen, and asked him, "Why don't you sit on the tree for a while? We can wait for the sunrise."
"It's better not to, this is the bodhi tree, the place where the Buddha sits quietly, we sit on it, but we don't respect the Bodhisattva!" Qi Zhinian said very seriously.
It made Qi Huai laugh, and he pointed to a tree farther away: "I'm talking about that one, it just faces the east."
"... Oh." Qi Zhinian was a little embarrassed.
Qi Huai was still laughing at the beginning, laughing and laughing, but his heart became unhappy again, and there were only a few hours left to watch.
He sighed, walked under the tree with Qi Zhinian, jumped up the tree with Qi Zhinian, let Qi Zhinian sit on the inside of the branch, he sat next to Qi Zhinian, wanting to What to say, actually found that there is no way to talk about it.
Qi Zhinian was the same, suddenly there was silence around him, the night on the mountain was very quiet, he also wanted to say something, but because he wanted to say too much, too much, he couldn't say a word.
The two of them sat shoulder to shoulder, looking at the east, and it seemed that they didn't wait too long, and everything around them began to change slowly.
First, in the Yunshan Temple on the left, the lights began to light up one by one, and then dense but slight footsteps sounded, and the birds in the forest also sounded one by one, and the whiteness of the sky was smudged layer by layer.
Finally, "Om--", the morning bell of Yunshan Temple rang, and the sound of wooden fish and chanting came one after another.
The gold border in the distance has already rolled over Qi Zhinian and Qi Huai's bodies.
"Crackling——" the ancient gate of Yunshan Temple was slowly opened, and a new day began.
The day when Qi Zhinian left also arrived.
Qi Huai jumped back to the ground with Qi Zhinian in his arms, and led him into Yunshan Temple.
Qi Huai asked to see the abbot, and a quarter of an hour later, in the Zen room, they waited for the abbot. The abbot looked very kind, said "Amitabha", and asked with a smile, "What's the donor's business?"
After finishing speaking, the abbot also smiled at Qi Zhinian.
Qi Huai took out a purse from his sleeve pocket, and a Jade Guanyin from his pocket, and handed it to the abbot: "Please ask the abbot to consecrate this Jade Guanyin."
"Amitabha, the almsgiver sit and wait for a while." The abbot took the purse, turned around and left the meditation room.
"..." Qi Zhinian watched the door open and close dully.
Qi Huai took a sip of tea but didn't speak.
Qi Zhinian looked down at his hands on his knees. He heard the sound of chanting sutras and the laughter of Shangxiang people in the distance. He twisted his hands together.
Until the abbot came back again, he solemnly returned Jade Guanyin to Qi Huai.
Qi Huai got up to thank him, the abbot smiled and said "Amitabha" again, and then left.
Qi Huai turned his head, looked at Qi Zhinian who was sitting there in a daze, and stretched out his hand towards him, Qi Zhinian was a few beats behind in reacting, puzzled, Qi Huai took Qi Zhinian's hand, and took the Jade Avalokitesvara Put it in his palm.
Yu Guanyin was cold, Qi Huai's hands were even colder, but Qi Zhinian felt his palms were hot.
"Let's go. I left a letter when I came. I'm afraid they have already left. I'll send you to meet them."
After Qi Huai finished speaking, he stepped out of the meditation room.
Qi Zhinian clenched Jade Avalokitesvara tightly in his hand, and followed them out. The two walked out of Yunshan Temple one after the other. Before getting into the carriage, Qi Zhinian gritted his teeth, his voice even trembling: "I, I can, I can Can I give you a hug..."
Qi Huai looked back at him, and Qi Zhinian looked at him nervously.
Just when Qi Zhinian thought that Qi Huai was about to refuse, Qi Huai suddenly walked up to him and held him in his arms with open arms. Qi Zhinian wanted to look up, but Qi Huai held his head in his arms.
Soon, Qi Huai let go of him, carried him into the car, and pushed him into the car.
"Let's go." He pressed his back against the door of the carriage to prevent Qi Zhinian from coming out again, and drove the carriage down the mountain.
Sure enough, after going down the mountain and walking along the road for a few miles, Qi Zhinian saw a few carriages parked by the side of the road through the window, and Qi Huai's voice sounded from outside the carriage: "It's a long journey, donkey carts don't It's too safe, I've arranged two carriages. After you leave, I will ask someone to take care of the mother and daughter of the Lin family. I asked him what he meant, and he is willing to follow you from now on. The deed is with Mother Fan. Here Mother Fan offered 1 taels, don’t refuse, this is what mother meant. The prince lost a lot of property, which was piled up in the car. Mother also gave Fan mother a few posts written by herself. Eyes, just use them."
"..." Qi Zhinian bowed his head. When he heard the first sentence, he was just surprised, then grateful, and then guilty. When Qi Huai finished speaking and stopped talking, all he had left was sad.
There was no moment that made him understand more than this moment.
They are really leaving.
Even though he was wearing white clothes, the tear stains on the clothes were already obvious, Qi Zhinian wiped away the tears with the back of his hand, he wanted to tell Qi Huai that he knew it all, and also wanted to ask Qi Huai not to worry, they would live well.
When he opened his mouth, he almost let out a whimper, and he hurriedly shut up again.
And the carriage has gradually stopped.
"Get out of the car."
Qi Zhinian took a deep breath, wiped his face with his sleeves vigorously, and then opened the door to get out of the car. He didn't dare to look at Qi Huai, and avoided looking in another direction, but saw the eldest princess in ordinary clothes, He was a little surprised, he didn't expect the eldest princess to come too.
The eldest princess looked at Qi Huai, walked up to Qi Zhinian, and said rare and warm words in her usual high-ranking tone: "Don't be so stupid when you are outside, all the posts I wrote are with Mother Fan , write to me when you run out.”
"..." Qi Zhinian nodded vigorously.
"Let's go early while there are few people at this time."
After all, the eldest princess stepped aside, Qi Zhinian bent down to give the eldest princess a deep salute, and when he was about to turn around, his figure froze slightly, whether he was looking at Qi Huai, in order not to cry, his eyes closed Blinking vigorously, contemplating for a long time, only said three words: "I'm leaving..."
Qi Huai smiled at him: "Let's go."
Qi Zhinian bit his lip, took a few steps to the carriage, and hurriedly climbed into the carriage.
Mother Fan also came forward to salute them, Xiao Wu was a little ignorant, but followed suit, Huang Lian who left with them said with a smile: "Don't worry, I will take good care of them."
The eldest princess nodded, and they all got into the carriage, Xiao Wu flicked his whip, and the two carriages headed east one by one.
The carriage got farther and farther away, and the eldest princess asked, "Are you willing?"
Qi Huai, who was standing right behind her, said with a wry smile: "In his eyes, I'm just a symbol of his father, nothing more."
The eldest princess looked back at him, she sighed, and patted his shoulder: "Go back."
Sending the eldest princess back to the mansion, Qi Huai went to the palace first, and then acted with the emperor for a while. After all, the Marquis of Qingning was not completely dismissed. Later, because the prince pleaded for mercy, the emperor just demoted him to Qing Ning Bo, the Jiang family is very grateful to the prince, and probably hates Qi Huai too much.
Qi Huai didn't care at all.
The father and son each have their own thoughts, what kind of drama they are doing, and what their own ideas are, doesn't he know?
So he praised the prince vigorously, saying that he has the style of the first emperor, and he deserves to be the prince hand-picked by the first emperor.
This is also another place where the emperor was very angry. In fact, this crown prince was not wanted by him, but by the late emperor!
The first emperor's last decree hand-picked the prince as the prince, and the emperor delayed it for several years, until he couldn't delay it any longer, and he couldn't grasp the handle of the prince, so he had to make the prince the prince.
He is well-behaved as an emperor, what kind of prince should he be?
Curse yourself to die early? !
Besides, his crown prince should have been established by himself!
Qi Huai laughed in his heart when he saw his expression changing, but he was forcibly suppressing it.
With this kind of heart, I dare to imitate other people's thinking.
The emperor was not happy, and naturally he didn't want Qi Huai to be happy, he said: "Oh, Brother Nian is gone, right? Actually, if I want to tell you, what's the point of recording him in the Qi family's genealogy? After all, he has been raised for many years. My child, I can't bear it."
"Sigh." Qi Huai sighed deeply, "Uncle, it's not like you don't know the secret behind it."
The emperor thought that Qi Huai actually hated Qi Zhinian, so he wanted to boast: "Brother Nian is such a good child, because you have a good family education, the queen has always missed him, and even wanted to call him Xiao Wushang, the same child , what do you say you care about!"
Qi Huai pretended to be sullen and refused to speak.
The emperor felt relieved, so he let him go. Hearing that Qi Huai "quietly" went up the mountain just after leaving the palace, he was even more delighted, thinking that Qi Huai was completely depressed.
Xu Yan is coming back soon, Qi Huai is going up the mountain to wait for him.
In the secret room of the Taoist temple, he met "Qi Huai", and after saying what he should say, "Qi Huai" said: "Master Guo, a young man came to look for you earlier."
Qi Huai knew about this matter, and the guards said it.
He nodded, not paying much attention to it, but "Qi Huai" went on to say: "He can recognize that I'm not you."
Qi Huai raised his head to look at him, his originally lazy eyes became extraordinarily sharp.
"Qi Huai" felt cold all over his body, and immediately said: "I have never made any mistakes, even the crane you raised didn't see the difference, but the young man just took one look at me and knew that I was not you, and even questioned me." Where have you been?"
Qi Huai frowned, he believed what "Qi Huai" said, but, how could Qi Zhinian recognize that it wasn't him?
This is simply too unbelievable.
"Qi Huai" looked at his expression, and asked cautiously: "Master, what kind of important person is that young man?"
Qi Huai remained silent.
To him, Qi Zhinian is like a treasure that needs to be treasured, and he just wants to hide it where no one can see it.
Therefore, this is also a feeling that he will never be able to share with others, including his double.
His substitute was after he was born, and his father realized that something was wrong, so he asked the master to find this boy who was the same age as him but looked very similar.
I grew up with him when I was young, but he changed his appearance. He never went out with Qi Huai, and worked as a book boy for him at home. He learned everything from Qi Huai. When he was 12 years old, he "died" for a very reasonable reason. In fact, he went to Jiangxuemen and continued to learn the kung fu from his master Qi Huai.
When he went to Jiangxuemen to remove the disguise, even the master couldn't recognize him, thinking that Qi Huai had sneaked in.
Before his father died, he had seen him once.
The two of them stood next to each other, and my father couldn't make out who was who.
This is the only person who has identified the two of them in 33 years.
This is also the only person Qi Huai has moved his heart for in the past 33 years.
Such a person, he really wants to let him go?
When did he, Qi Huai, become so kind?Do you only care about other people's feelings, but completely ignore your own?
He wants to let such a person leave his world and spend his life with others in a place he will never see again?
Qi Huai stood up suddenly.
"Master!" "Qi Huai" hastily called him to stop.
Qi Huai has strode away.
The author has something to say:
