Chapter 718 Let that Child Go, Just for the Sake of General Liu’s Death.

Late at night, when Rong Leng came in, he saw that although Liu Wei was still holding these two things in her hands, she had already fallen asleep.

He closed the Buddhist scriptures, put away the soul-calling nails, got on the bed, hugged the person in his arms, and fell asleep.

The nights on the mountain are colder than those at the bottom, but people on the mountain go to bed early, so the cold air in the middle of the night doesn't seem too harsh.

Gu Wen was told by Liu Wei that from the beginning of the night, he had to sleep next to his master.

Therefore, after confirming that the master was asleep, Gu Wen sat at the table and began to take a nap.

It was just a light sleep at first, but as time passed, Gu Wen became more and more confused. After a while, he fell drowsily on the table and could not get up again.

Master Mingwu slowly opened his eyes, looked at the flickering candlelight on the table, sighed, slowly sat up from the bed, leaned weakly on the pillow, and asked the air: "What else are you doing? "

The candlelight flickered for a while, and then the door opened.

There was more than one person outside the door.

There were dozens of figures, shadowy and shadowy, but finally, the figure in the middle walked in. After that person came in, the others closed the door of the meditation room from the outside.

In the Zen room, silence returned again.

Master Mingwu's cloudy eyes looked at the person who walked into the candlelight, and the fatigue on his face was particularly profound.

The man under the candlelight also followed the steps and slowly walked towards the bed.

After standing on the edge of the collapse, she spoke quietly, and her voice was an old female voice: "Hundreds of thousand-year-old ginseng roots and hundreds of kilograms of fine medicinal materials have been delivered to your temple."

Master Mingwu recited a Buddhist verse and then said: "The benefactor is so kind and I understand it deeply. Please take back the original things. I will not be able to die for a while with my dilapidated body."

But the other party let out a breath, as if he was holding back something, and finally said sternly: "The Ai family doesn't want to be favored by others! The master has done a good job in protecting you, and some external medicines are just a thought!"

Master Mingwu didn't speak, but his pale face looked particularly blurry in the flickering candlelight.

The other party was a little angry, gritting his teeth and said: "You were a weak scholar when you were young, and a pedantic monk when you are old. Do you really think that you have made no progress at all in your life?"

Master Mingwu closed his eyes and silently recited a Buddhist verse.

But the other party continued to mock lightly: "You have been serving the Buddha for many years, but you can't escape from the world. If you really ignore everything, why would you accept that slap for Aijia? There are always some people who want to put Aijia to death. If you meddle in this business, you will harm yourself and your temple."

"The road is rough, the concubine is in serious trouble."

Concubine Ning, Mrs. Ding, snorted coldly. Her majestic face revealed a bit of her customary aloofness. She looked at the half-dead old monk in front of her and said, "The Ai family heard that several guests came to your temple today." ?”

Master Mingwu opened his eyes immediately, his eyes guarded.

Concubine Ning smiled: "Why are you nervous? What happened back then has long since passed, Liu Huan has been dead long ago, and there has been no news from the Ji family for many years. If the Ai family wants to take action against the orphan of the Liu family, why bother waiting until today?"

Master Mingwu's voice turned cold: "I only found out a few months ago that she is the eldest lady of the Liu family, but it seems that the concubine has already known about it."

Concubine Ning, who is over eight years old, looks energetic. Although she is old, her complexion is as good as she can tell. She doesn't hide it: "The Ai family didn't know about you for a long time, but there is a rumor in the capital about a Mr. Liu. Why should the Ai family investigate? In this world, the Ai family is worried about anyone with the surname Liu!"

Master Mingwu said in a bad tone: "You are so worried, but your Majesty has done too much harm to your heart. Are you afraid that the ancestors of the Liu family will come to settle accounts with you?"

"Whatever you say." As if she had heard such words too many times, the concubine didn't care. She looked relaxed and spoke in a very casual tone: "Anyway, you blocked that slap for the Ai family. The Ai family owes Once upon a time, you have delicious medicinal materials. I originally wanted to ask two imperial doctors to diagnose and treat you, but now that Liu Wei is here, I don’t need it anymore. In the future, if there is a chance, I will return this favor to you."

Master Mingwu said: "I have already stepped half-legged into the coffin. The empress repays my kindness, but I will not accept it. If possible, I would ask the concubine to let the child go, just for the sake of the dead General Liu." "

But the concubine said: "Liu Yuan has no face! He killed my own son, and I wanted his life. It is commendable that he did not drive out all the Liu family. As for you, you have understood clearly for many years, but you have not understood it. You are afraid of this Buddhist scripture." I’m thinking about it all the way to my stomach!”

Master Mingwu didn't get angry even after speaking such evil words. He just lowered his head calmly and recited a Buddhist verse again.

Concubine Ning couldn't bear to see how he looked like he had seen through everything, and asked coldly: "Tomorrow the Ai family will return to the palace. Do you know why the Ai family is going back?"

Master Mingwu was silent.

Concubine Ning didn't seem to need him to answer, and said directly: "Qinyang is dead."

Master Mingwu’s eyelids moved.

"Do you still remember Qinyang? It was you who named Qinyang."

Master Mingwu was silent.

Concubine Ning smiled: "The Ai family doesn't like any of the children in the palace, except that child, who lives on the same month and day as the Ai family. The Ai family was very happy when they saw her. She held her infant child in her arms. She, Aijia, personally went to Guanyuan Temple to pray for blessings. It happened that you were discussing Taoism with the master of Guanyuan Temple, and you were also there. At that time, Aijia asked all the masters to give her a name, but only you named her. Aijia is the most harmonious, do you know? Why?"

Of course Master Mingwu knows it, but the more he knows it, the harder Master Mingwu closes his eyes, and even wants to close his ears if possible.

Master Mingwu, I don’t want to hear it again.

"Qinyang, Qin, is the cousin's name for the Ai family, and Yang is the name for your family before becoming a monk. Tell me, what do you want to express?"

"Just a casual comment, Princess, don't worry too much." Master Mingwu held on for a long time before gritting his teeth and saying.

After saying this, Master Mingwu's face turned a little pale.

Concubine Ning shook her head: "You are joking. Listen to the Ai family, but you are not. So, the Ai family decided on this name for the child, but now, the child is dead. In the end, is it Qinyang who dies, or you and me? ……died……"

Master Mingwu glanced at the concubine secretly. It was rare to see the mother of the country who had been domineering for decades, showing a gloomy expression.

Master Mingwu's expression remained unchanged, but deep down in his heart, he was still shaking: "You and I would have died long ago, so why mention it again."

These words were so heartless that Concubine Ning straightened up her flabby face almost immediately, with a sharp look in her eyes, and finally said: "Not necessarily."

Master Mingwu looked at the concubine again.

Concubine Ning said: "The Ai family discovered that the Ai family has another connection with you, that is, the child of the Liu family and the child of my Rong family have become a couple. Does this mean that you and the Ai family have something in common? , in the end, is there still Shu Mo?”
