The traitor has a white moonlight

The people outside the nunnery were covered in snow, the people inside the nunnery were silent to the candle, and the wooden door creaked open, only to see a solitary shadow in front of the candle.

"The snow is falling more and more. If it continues at this rate, the road down the mountain will be closed before tomorrow morning." The sound of people coming before the door came, and it was Master Yuanshan, the presiding officer of Jingyun Nunnery, who came. The old concubine turned her head when she heard the sound, and then she stepped in: "Kneeling outside in this weather, the iron body can't bear it, so Liaochen really doesn't want to go and see?"

The old concubine got up and performed a Buddhist ceremony to Master Yuanshan: "Didn't the master say that people from the Buddhist sect are empty of all four elements, and all mundane things are vain, why are you bringing this up now?"

"The so-called dust removal means that all kinds of mortal worlds have been cut off. Since then, the blue lamp and ancient Buddha have been troubled and worry-free. However, the world of mortals in your heart has not gone away, and your eyebrows are troubled. Why do you get rid of dust?" Master Yuan Shan left. In front of the old concubine: "Even if you can't let it go, let's go and have a look. Everything in the world has a cause and effect. Whether it is fate or evil, it is the law of fate. It is good to let nature take its course. Don't force it, it will only increase troubles, Amitabha. "

Master Yuan Shan said a Buddhist gatha, then turned and left.The old concubine stared at the candlelight for a long time in a daze, then got up and opened the umbrella and went out the door.

All the way through the halls and corridors, the old concubine felt full of resentment, and she would never soften her heart. However, when the door of the nunnery was opened, and she saw the two people hugging and kneeling in front of the door, covered in snow, almost frozen into ice sculptures, her heart went crazy. Can't help but tremble.

Gu Huaisheng was already dazed from the cold, but when he heard the movement, he raised his head with difficulty, recognized who it was in a daze, and saluted stiffly: "Old, old concubine..."

Zhao Yue raised his head following Gu Huaisheng's movements, without saying a word, but looked at the old concubine with deep and pained eyes, full of prayers.

The old concubine could be indifferent to Gu Huaisheng, but she couldn't face her own son, with such a fragile appearance on the snowy ground, such pleading eyes, just one glance, it was like being stabbed in the heart by a knife.From that look, the old concubine clearly understood that even if she fell into Buddhism, Zhao Yue would suffer and blame herself, but she would never let go of Gu Huaisheng's hand.

"You have been stubborn since you were a child. Whether it is right or wrong, ten cows will not be able to pull back what you believe in. You are stubborn, so stubborn. Your father is gentle. You follow him everywhere, but you will not hit the south wall if you follow me. Stubbornness that doesn't look back." The old concubine sighed sadly: "Don't kneel down, come in." After saying that, she lowered her eyes and turned back.

"Yes!" Zhao Yue shouted loudly: "Thank you, mother!" Then he stiffly helped Gu Huaisheng up, and followed him into the door stumbling.

The rule of not entering the nunnery cannot be broken, so the old concubine did not lead the two to the main house, but to the ear courtyard separated by a wall.That side is usually used to store sundries, and few people go there on weekdays, so they are not afraid of offending Buddhist taboos.

"Just make do here tonight. There is an abandoned stove over there. The firewood may be damp. The stove is usable. Burn some hot water to warm your body. When it dawns tomorrow, go down the mountain. "Although the old concubine brought people in, she didn't give a good face, turned around and left after speaking.

"Mother!" Zhao Yue hurriedly called people to stop: "Then you, will you come back with us?"

"I have shaved my hair and become a nun, and I will practice Buddhism for the rest of my life. Of course, I will not return." The old concubine took two steps, stopped again, but did not turn around, and said after a while: "I have been a widow for half my life. From resentment to hatred, from hatred to fear, my state of mind has long been distorted. Now that I think about it, even though I have been sinking and struggling for half my life, the prosperous secular world was not suitable for me. It's not a home."

"Mother……"

"Since you have made your choice, live well, Amitabha." At the moment when she crossed the threshold without turning her head, the old concubine had been obsessed with it for many years, and she finally let go of it, and realized that the presider's speech was boundless. The law is just a thought.

The old concubine made up her mind, Gu Huaisheng was anxious and confused, she turned to Zhao Yue and asked, "She seems to be serious, what should I do?"

"If this is what she wants, then I respect her choice." Zhao Yue sighed: "If she wants to say she can't let go, the only thing she can't let go of is her father."

"Then with her current status, can she still go to the Buddha Temple to worship the Buddha?" Gu Huaisheng wrinkled her nose and shook her head: "Probably not."

Zhao Yue shook his head, and took the initiative to end the topic: "Sit on the haystack for a while, cover your body with more grass to warm up, and I'll get some hot water."

"How can you, a prince, do this, it's me..."

"Be honest." After glancing at Gu Huaisheng, Zhao Yue went out immediately.

Gu Huaisheng smirked twice, without arguing with him, wrapped his cloak tightly and shrank back to the haystack, pulling all the hay piled up around him to cover his body, but it was still useless to shiver with the cold wind.

It took Zhao Yue a long time to go this time, and it took him a long time to come back holding a torch and carrying a wooden bucket with a gray face.

"I should take a hot bath, but there is no water in the tank. I boiled it with snow water, so I can just make do with soaking my hands and feet." Zhao Yue put down the barrel, turned around and inserted the torch into the wall behind him. On the gap in the wall: "Stop dawdling, hurry up and make bubbles."

Gu Huaisheng got up from the haystack, patted the grass clippings and walked over, with his sleeves rolled up, but his attention was on the wall, and he was happy to see where the torch was inserted.

"You put the torch in very well. Just the hole, the cold wind poured straight into it, so it's not so cold after being blocked." As he spoke, Gu Huaisheng had already walked to the wooden barrel, and Zhao Yue didn't let Zhao Yue do anything this time. , put his hand in it consciously, and hissed hotly: "Exciting."

Zhao Yue glanced at him, rolled up his sleeves and went to soak together: "Don't make such strange noises, let people hear you, and think that we are doing something insulting and desecrating the holy place of Buddhism."

Gu Huaisheng almost bit his tongue, and after a long while grinning grimly, he choked out a sentence: "My lord, you are so dirty."

"To each other." Zhao Yue stared at the barrel without raising his head.

Gu Huaisheng clicked his tongue, too lazy to argue with him, but thinking of Yun Mo and the coachman, he couldn't help worrying.

"Yun Mo and Uncle Liu are still at the foot of the mountain..."

"Don't worry." Zhao Yue was not worried: "They don't know where to hide when it snows, and they are not fools."

Gu Huaisheng: "..."

"Go to bed early after soaking, you have to go down the mountain and return to Beijing tomorrow." Zhao Yue glanced at Gu Huaisheng and said.

"You really don't want to persuade me any more?" Gu Huaisheng was still a little confused.

"Yeah." Zhao Yue nodded: "The emperor has just ascended the throne, so there are many things that need to be kept in mind. It has been delayed for a long time, and I am afraid of trouble."

"Tell me about you, throwing away the title of emperor and becoming regent, it's still the same exhaustion." Gu Huaisheng curled his lips.

Zhao Yue then laughed: "That's because you, sir, are incompetent. After teaching for so long, stupid students still can't handle it alone. You have to work hard, sir. I'm free, and I rely entirely on my husband."

"Shameless." Gu Huaisheng rolled his eyes at him, and after soaking their hands and feet together, they dug into the haystack: "Ah! It's still warm if two people squeeze together!"

Zhao Yue covered the cloak that Gu Huaisheng took off on the grass quilt, and lay down with his arms around the person: "Go to sleep."

After sleeping soundly all night, Gu Huaisheng was worried that he would get sick if he fell asleep in this environment, but he didn't want to wake up in the morning refreshed and warm, which was no worse than the feeling at home.

Just as he was stretching comfortably, he heard a cough coming from his side, and he stopped his movements and turned his head to look over.

"Why are you coughing? Could it be that you are sick?" Gu Huaisheng said as he reached out to touch Zhao Yue's forehead, but was blocked by the other's raised arm.

"I'm fine." Zhao Yue sat up, but his first reaction was to care about Gu Huaisheng: "And you, you slept well, are you freezing?"

"No, I slept pretty well, I was warm and not cold." Gu Huaisheng looked worried: "But you don't seem to be well." Even if you don't touch it, you can tell from Zhao Yue's face, that red , too abnormal: "Do you have a fever?"

"It's okay." Zhao Yue took the clothes and put them on, moving swiftly, but he really didn't look sick: "Hurry up, I'll go outside to see if the snow has stopped."

Zhao Yue quickly put on his clothes and went out. Gu Huaisheng looked at his back and sighed, and put it on quickly without delay.When going out, he pulled out the torch stick that had been extinguished for a long time on the wall, and Gu Huaisheng threw it into the haystack, clapped his hands and walked out.

The snow has stopped, but the snow is quite thick, and the eyes are all white.

Gu Huaisheng walked to Zhao Yue's side: "Are you going to bid farewell to the old concubine?"

"Yeah." Zhao Yue nodded, turned around and gathered Gu Huaisheng's cloak, then turned around and lowered the eaves: "Let's go."

However, when the two went there, the door was shut again, and the old concubine refused to come out to see them again.However, the little nun I met yesterday brought a vegetarian meal and freshly unpacked vegetarian buns for the two of them to take with them on the way.

"I don't know if I can have a little teacher to help me with a sentence." Zhao Yue took the food box, passed it to Gu Huaisheng to hold it, performed a Buddhist ceremony, and said politely.

"Please tell me, benefactor." The little nun returned a Buddhist salute.

"The twelfth lunar month is coming to an end, and I will get married two days before New Year's Eve. I hope my mother can come back..."

"It turned out to be this." The little nun took out a kit from her sleeve and handed it to Zhao Yue: "She expected you to say this, but she won't return, and asked me to pass this kit to Zhao Yue. Donor, say yes, give your daughter-in-law a new wedding gift."

Gu Huaisheng was taking off the lid of the food box, but was staggered by the word "daughter-in-law", and almost choked on his own saliva, but before he could protest and say something, the little nun turned around and left.

Zhao Yue was also very surprised at first, but he was amused when he saw Gu Huaisheng's reaction so big, and put the bag in his arms: "Take it, Zhao's daughter-in-law, this is a change of words given to you by your mother-in-law." present."

Gu Huaisheng raised his foot and kicked it: "Fuck you, are you looking for a pump?"

"Are you willing?" Zhao Yue smiled and watched Gu Huaisheng baring his teeth and claws, not dodging or dodging, and letting the kicks go.

"Aren't I kicking?" Gu Huaisheng glared at him, then turned and left: "I'm gone, I don't bother to talk to you."
