Rebirth: Raising an Emperor as a Wife

After entering the gate, you are facing the Daxiong Palace. In front of the hall, a crooked ginkgo tree covers the entire roof, like a canopy, revealing a sense of Zen.There are three golden Buddha statues in the Daxiong Hall. Xue Yao tidied up his clothes outside the hall, and walked slowly to the Buddha, regardless of what kind of Buddha it was, bowing his head devoutly and offering incense.According to his previous personality, he would definitely disdain to do these things, but now, he was born again, and his heart is full of reverence for the things of gods and Buddhas, so naturally he dare not be negligent in the slightest.

After offering incense, he followed the boy who led the way to the abbot's room.

The furnishings in the room are extremely simple, with a bed, a table and a futon. The incense burner on the table is filled with sandalwood, which is lightly placed without wind, and the fragrance is elegant, which makes people want to be quiet.The abbot is an old monk who is nearly seventy years old. His Dharma name is Yuancheng. With a snow-white beard under his jaw, he looks like an eminent monk.When Xue Yao came in, the old abbot Yuan Cheng was sitting on the futon and chanting scriptures. Seeing Xue Yao coming in, he slowly twisted the beads in his hand and walked over to pay his respects.

"Amitabha, benefactor Xue is very polite."

"Abbot is polite," Xue Yao saluted with clasped hands, and then handed over the scriptures copied by Jing Yi.

The old abbot accepted it with a smile, and ordered the little boy to hold it down, "The Sixth Highness has a heart, and Lao Na will burn incense and bathe tomorrow to bless His Highness."

Xue Yao was also polite, "Then I would like to thank the abbot." Xue Yao has never had much understanding, and he knows very little about Buddhism.Having said that, I don't know how to deal with the old abbot.Then the old abbot said suddenly: "The palace has been troubled recently, please take care of yourself, Your Highness the Sixth Highness."

What he said, Xue Yao's heart moved, could it be that the old abbot knew something inside.Immediately asked, "Abbot, please give me some pointers."

The old abbot had an inscrutable look on his face, and he turned the Buddha string in his hand, "Lao Na only knows how to practice Zen and discuss scriptures, but he doesn't know how to give advice. It's just that the empress left the Facheng Temple early this morning. A big event happened. Lao Na has acquainted with His Highness the Sixth Highness a few times, and knows that he is not a treacherous and cunning person, so he cares a little bit."

Well, it’s as if the old abbot said nothing, Xue Yao felt that he would not be able to ask anything, "I will definitely pass on the master's concern to His Highness. If that is the case, I will take my leave."

The old abbot didn't keep any guests either, "Please benefactor."

After leaving the abbot's door, the boy who led the way stood outside the door and said softly, "The benefactor comes with me."

This is to take him out. Xue Yao always felt that there was something in the old monk's words, but he still couldn't guess the sharp edge. He followed the boy for two steps and asked, "Little master, when the empress worships the Buddha, she also lives in the temple." ?"

The boy had a very pure mind, and when he heard his question, he replied in a straightforward manner, "The empress is very pious in worshiping the Buddha. When she came to the temple, she was just like ordinary bhikkhunis. Never missed a day, and ate just like us."

Xue Yao continued to ask, "Which room does the empress live in?"

The boy pointed to the row of meditation rooms on the right, "That's the second one over there."

"Oh," Xue Yao smiled, "Thank you, little master." He said in his heart that he would come back tonight to take a closer look.

After returning to Jinghua Palace, Jing Yi has not returned yet, presumably he is accompanying the Queen Mother in the Queen Mother Palace.Seeing that it was almost noon, Xue Yao came back with a food box, ready to finish lunch, take a good rest, and lay a solid foundation for the night's action.

It just so happened that Huzi pushed the door open and came in. His eyes lit up when he saw the food box, and he started to eat it unceremoniously.Fortunately, Xue Yao had the foresight to take a double food box, so no one would be hungry.

The news brought by Huzi was still expected. Although some people in the court had been defending Mr. Zhang, but under the pressure from the queen, the emperor finally put Zhang Jin in prison.And because of the controversy over the Chongzheng Hall, the emperor had a headache and had to rest for three days.In other words, although Mr. Zhang was locked in a big prison, the charges have not yet been judged, and there are at least three days to do something for Xue Yao.

Thinking of this, Xue Yao couldn't help but think a little more about the current emperor.

With Zhang Jin's behavior style, there should be many enemies in the court, but the emperor's secret protection may have played a big role in being able to live safely until now.This time against the queen, the method was a little hasty, but it wasn't necessarily a bad thing.The emperor didn't get angry because of this yesterday, maybe he wanted to see what the two sides could fight for.

Thinking about the group of people kneeling outside the Chongzheng Hall, they are already half of the officials in the court. The Xue clan is so powerful that no emperor would want to see it.That's why there are only three days. This is to see how capable Mr. Zhang is, and whether he can shake the authority of the Queen and the Xue family.

From ancient times to the present, things above the court have never been as simple and straightforward as we imagined.

When Xue Yao woke up again, it was already dusk, the sky after the rain was as blue as washing, and a gorgeous sunset was reflected in the west, so beautiful that people couldn't move away.He didn't even remember that he had ever seen such a sunset, maybe he didn't have this mood at all before, but now, even his mood has changed after changing the route.

The Jing Pavilion is very quiet, Jing Yi is probably resting in the room, and Chen Zhao should be in his own room or in the martial arts arena.In the morning, Huzi had a good idea. Xue Yao decided to come and find this Chen Zhao. However, he didn't just want Chen Zhao's help to keep an eye on Ju'er. He also had a very bold idea. I believe he must be interested. .

Xue Yao listened quietly in front of the room for a while, made sure that someone was inside, and knocked on the door.Hearing a sound from inside, "Please come in," then pushed the door in, and then closed the door carefully.

Chen Zhao was reading a book at the table, when he heard the voice, he raised his head and saw that it was Xue Yao. He was surprised at first, then showed a disgusted expression, and said bluntly, "What are you doing here?"

Chen Zhao was a man of yin and yang, so Xue Yao pretended not to see his stinky face, pulled a stool and sat down by the table, "I have something to tell you."

"What's the matter, finish talking and go."

"...,"

This person is really not welcome at all, so Xue Yao had no choice but to ask, "In the past two days, you have heard something about the prince."

Chen Zhao chuckled, "Your Highness the Sixth Highness hasn't entered the court yet, so what do we have to do with the affairs of the previous court." The conversation changed, and he continued, "Don't mess around, don't harm His Highness when the time comes, It also hurt us, and I can't spare you at that time."

Xue Yao smiled, "It's too late. Let me tell you now, the Crown Prince has already attacked His Highness the Sixth Highness. Do you still think you are safe?"

How could Chen Zhao just believe his nonsense, snorted coldly and shouted, "Nonsense."
