Unparalleled Concubine

When the little girl said this, she covered her mouth and ran into the yard to report.

Li Xin also felt a little emotional when he heard this little girl address Cui Jiuniang.

More than ten years ago, when he first entered the capital, Cui Jiuniang and Cui Jiuniang were 26 years old at the time of their prime. Now more than ten years have passed, and the shopkeeper of Deyilou is almost 38 years old.

She already had people calling her aunt.

After Li Xin stood at the door and waited for a while, Cui Jiuniang, dressed in plain white, walked to the door under the guidance of the little girl.

Before getting close, Li Xin saw the prayer beads spinning in her hand at a glance.

The hair full of black hair has been stuffed into the monk's hat.

The plain white clothes are monk's clothes,

After approaching, Lord Jing'an looked Cui Jiuniang up and down, who was not wearing any makeup, and sighed slightly: "Long time no see, sister is a layman?"

Cui Jiuniang smiled slightly.

"A few years ago, I had the idea of ​​becoming a monk, but it was inconvenient for me to go out, and I couldn't get shaved, so I just stayed at home as a lay Buddhist, practicing Buddhism, and cultivating my body."

She looked up and smiled at Li Xin.

"Why is Hou Ye free and come to my place?"

Li Xinxin sighed.

His Royal Highness Wei Wang left the palace to open the mansion at the age of 16. He was an ambitious person, so after opening the mansion, he began to actively cultivate his own power. Cui Jiuniang's Deyilou was one of the properties of Wei Wangfu. Cui Jiuniang's side Helping Wei Wang's mansion run the Deyi Building, while being a lover for His Royal Highness Wei Wang.

Later, His Royal Highness King Wei finally ascended the throne and became the aloof Ninth Five-Year Supreme. The woman who helped him manage Deyilou for seven years failed to enter the palace, let alone become a concubine. Instead, she hid in this place to avoid suspicion. In the alley, one hides for ten years.

These ten years have been Cui Jiuniang's last youth.

Although she said verbally that she never thought of entering the palace as a concubine, but as long as she is a normal person, how can she not have any thoughts in her heart?

When Li Xin came to see her, he wanted to send her to Danzhou so that she would not have to suffer in the capital, but she shook her head and did not agree.

In a blink of an eye, ten years passed, and the former His Royal Highness King Wei was already lying in the Tailing Mausoleum.

This woman who had been waiting in Qinhuaifang Hutong for ten years finally let go of her obsession and chose to become a monk at home.

Looking at Cui Jiuniang in a monk's robe and hat, Li Xinxin sighed.

Emperor Taikang said, I'm sorry to many people, but if you want to say the most sorry, it's probably this prostitute.

The two "siblings" sat down in the small yard.

Jiu Niang reached out to fill Li Xin with tea, and then sat opposite Li Xin.

Li Houye, who was eloquent in the court hall, was silent here for a long time, and finally took a sip of tea, and said slowly: "Sister, you don't need to become a monk."

He sighed and put down the teacup in his hand.

"Now, Sister Cui can go out and live her own life. The late Emperor has already passed away, and no one will pursue my sister's affairs again."

"Even if someone is there, my younger brother can try to block it for my elder sister."

Jiuniang held the hot tea in both hands, lowered her head and took a sip.

Then she smiled.

"No one has ever forced me to become a monk. This is my own decision."

Li Xin frowned slightly.

"Sister can still marry... a husband and a child."

Jiu Niang said quietly: "Finding husbands and children is a way of life, and the ancient Qingdeng Buddha is also a way of life. I am used to living here, and I am more and more peaceful. I can't bear the troubles outside."

She added a cup of tea to Li Xin, and asked with a smile, "How is Xiao Xiao doing recently? Maybe she hasn't seen me for a long time."

In the past ten years, Li Xin didn't come to see Cui Jiuniang much because of taboos, but Zhong Xiaoxiao often came to visit her. I just came back, and I haven't seen Jiuniang for almost a year.

Lord Jing'an gave a wry smile,

"That girl has deep roots in love, and it probably won't be long before she will be clamoring to get married."

"That's a good thing."

Cui Jiuniang smiled quietly.

"It's a good thing to get married. You can't be like me and never get married for the rest of your life."

Mentioning this, Li Xin sighed slightly.

He bowed his head and took a sip of tea.

"It's him who can't stand my sister."

Jiu Niang shook her head, with a smile still in her eyes.

"It's my fate."

Chapter 864

Li Xin stayed in this small courtyard for a long time, almost half a day. During this half day, he spent most of the time reminiscing with Cui Jiuniang and asking about Cui Jiuniang's future plans.

This woman, who has experienced ups and downs in her life, finally chose to convert to Buddhism. She planned to find a nunnery to lose her hair after a while, but under Li Xin's persuasion, she continued to practice at home with her hair.

What Li Xin meant was that after three years, if Jiu Niang still had the same idea, he wouldn't stop her anymore.

When he left, it was already evening and the sun was setting.

Jiu Niang personally sent him to the door with a gentle tone.

"Although I don't know how the current court situation is, being an official in the capital is not always safe, and... he is not here anymore, Lord Hou be careful."

Li Xin nodded with a smile.

"Sister Cui, don't worry. After so many years, the bone-piercing blizzard was the most dangerous. I survived that blizzard by selling charcoal to Sister Cui, and there will be nothing difficult in the future."

Hearing Li Xin talk about the past, Jiu Niang also looked at Li Xin with emotion.

"That's right, that skinny charcoal seller back then is now the first-rank Taifu in the dynasty."

Jiu Niang smiled gently.

"After reading the history books, I'm afraid you alone can stand in this position at this age, and still stand so securely."
