Daoist, he doesn't understand love

Although impatient, Ti Ye still went to Gongchen Palace where the Empress Dowager lived.

Empress Dowager Zhang Jinyi, born in the family of generals, has acquired a strong temper since she was a child, and is known as having a fatherly style, but it is a pity that as a daughter, she cannot go into battle to kill the enemy.Later, when Zhang Jinyi first grew up, she was selected to enter the palace. After becoming the first emperor, she gave birth to Ti Ye. However, a sudden change happened, and the first emperor stayed on the couch for a long time. Zhang Jinyi thus became the ruler of the first emperor and became the female emperor in the eyes of historians. More than ten years.

It's just that who would have guessed that at the time when Empress Zhang took over the power, she actually handed over the power to the new emperor with her own hands, and then lived deep in the palace, shutting herself behind closed doors.

When Ti Ye arrived at Gongchen Palace, the female officer next to Zhang Jinyi came out to greet her, and said: "Your Majesty, Your Majesty is waiting for Your Majesty in the small Buddhist hall."

When Ti Ye heard the words, she had an expression that was expected and not surprised.

After the Empress Dowager Zhang retired to the deep palace, she built a small Buddhist hall in the Gongchen Palace. Except for three meals a day and going to bed, she almost stayed in the Buddhist hall for the rest of the time.

The Buddhist hall is right next to the main hall, transformed from a warm pavilion, and connected to the main hall, and the two are connected. Ti Ye followed the female officer and entered the main hall, but did not enter the Buddhist hall.

Ti Ye didn't like the smell of incense inside, and never went in.

After waiting for a while, Queen Mother Zhang came out from inside.

Although she is said to be the empress dowager, in fact Zhang Jinyi is only in her 30s and not yet [-] years old, but she seems to have lived a long time, and there is an aura of twilight around her.She was originally born with a gorgeous face that was almost sharp, but at this time no makeup was applied, and her long black hair was completely wrapped in a nun hat. It is hard to imagine her shining brilliance in the past.

When Ti Ye saw her, she was quite honest, stood up from the chair, and called out respectfully: "Mother's queen."

Zhang Jinyi kept twisting the beads in her hands, but she acted and spoke as usual, without being affected at all. She hummed indifferently, gave Tiye a sideways look, and said, "I thought I couldn't invite you anymore."

Only when she was talking, she still couldn't help showing a bit of the aura of being an empress and a mother.

How unpredictable Ti Ye is outside, when he comes to this person, he will restrain himself a lot. He is a little obedient, and said: "Mother calls son, how dare son not come."

Zhang Jinyi ignored him, walked to a chair and sat down, closed her eyes, twisted the beads quickly in her hands, and did not speak.

Ti Ye waited, and couldn't help asking: "Mother called me, do you have any orders?"

Zhang Jinyi thought she didn't hear his words. With her eyes closed, her lips twitched, she silently recited the entire scripture without making a sound, and then opened her eyes. For a moment, there seemed to be a needle-like sharpness passing through her eyes, piercing straight into the mouth. Xiang Tiye said: "Why did you summon the lords of all states and counties to the capital?"

Ti Ye seemed to have expected that she would ask this a long time ago. Hearing this, his expression didn't change much, he just curled his lips and said, "Mother, didn't you say that I can be in charge when I grow up? Why bother to ask these questions? matter."

Also with some coquettish tone.

Zhang Jinyi didn't listen to his tricks, and his face that was still quiet just now showed a bit of sternness, and he said to Ti Ye: "I let you take charge of the government, but I don't want you to mess around."

Ti Ye didn't seem very convinced: "Why is this messing around? During the years when my mother was in power, these lords lived freely in their own fiefs, and they never saw each other in court. This is really unreasonable."

Zhang Jinyi snorted coldly and said, "What are you asking them to do, to usurp your position?"

But Ti Ye didn't take it seriously, and said: "Mother, you have reformed the bureaucracy and rectified the court system in the past ten years, and you have already organized the whole court like an iron bucket. Who can easily usurp your son's position, and, besides,"

As Ti Ye spoke, he suddenly paused, and the hostility gathered between his brows again, the patterns on his face seemed to flow and glow, and he lifted his lips, but he laughed: "Since I am The rumored reincarnation of monsters, these are only mortal bodies, how can they resist me?"

Hearing what he said, Zhang Jinyi's movement of twirling the bead suddenly froze, and then she started to twirl more quickly, her face completely sank, and she said sharply: "What nonsense are you talking about, who said you are a demon, who dares to do that explain?!"

The woman who was dignified, solemn and calm just now became hysterical almost immediately just because she heard the word "monster", but Ti Ye didn't avoid it. Looking at the woman in front of her, she was silent for a while, then suddenly said: "If I'm not a demon, mother, why are you so angry?"

Zhang Jinyi's expression froze, and then her lips moved, as if she wanted to say something.

But it was preempted by Ti Ye: "If I wasn't, my royal father, how could he suddenly contract a sudden illness on that night ten years ago, so that he lost his mind, and in the last few years, he couldn't even speak?" come out?"

Zhang Jinyi's fingers tightened suddenly, and she tightly grasped the rosary in her hand. She twirled the beads quickly, and silently recited scriptures in her lips, as if trying to isolate Ti Ye's voice.

But the voice of the other party was pervasive, and broke in again: "Mother, why do you live in this small Buddhist hall all day long, chanting Buddhist scriptures all day long?"

Zhang Jinyi stopped twisting the beads, like a stone statue, motionless.

Ti Ye looked at the plain-faced woman in front of him, his eyes almost showed a kind of impatience, he said: "Who are you full of guilt for, you have no peace day and night, you need to use this method in order to transcend the other party and get rid of it Own?"

Zhang Jinyi didn't make a sound.

Ti Ye said in a low voice: "Over the years, Queen Mother, you have worked so hard to eliminate dissidents and replaced the court with people from your mother's clan. You saved my life, helped me ascend the throne, and wiped out all threats for me. And obstacles——mother, my child is lucky to have a mother like you, no matter what the child's status is, she loves me and protects me like this."

Zhang Jinyi's fingers trembled slightly, and finally she could no longer be indifferent. She looked at the young man in front of her, who was about to grow up, but after all, the young man who had not yet fully grown up, her eyes showed a daze and pity for a moment. A circle of red began to glow, as if tears were about to pour out.

Her lips trembled, and she said: "Son, you are the bone and flesh that fell from my body, how can mother not cherish you and protect you..."

It doesn't matter whether he is a human or a fairy, a demon or a demon, this is her son, and she wants to protect him, no matter who he is, he must not harm her child.

No matter who it is, it cannot.

"But mother," Ti Ye raised his voice slightly, he was still in the period of changing his voice, his voice sounded a little unnatural, slightly hoarse, but it was definitely not the clear and crisp child's voice anymore.

He has escaped from the helpless and weak childhood period when he needed others to coax and comfort him and his mother to protect him.

Ti Ye said: "The child has grown up."

"I've grown up, so I don't need you to protect me anymore," Ti Ye said word by word, full of firmness, "I can protect myself, and I can also protect you."

Zhang Jinyi opened his blurred eyes, staring at the young man in front of him in a daze.

It seems that she never really realized that the child she once held in her arms has grown so big that she is taller than her.

"Those who hate me but are afraid of me, this is of course the best, so that I can control them, and those who want to kill me and harm me," Ti Ye's face was flushed with red lines, and a trace of hostility flashed in his eyes, he said, "Of course I won't let them go."

After Ti Ye said these words, the room suddenly became very silent.

Zhang Jinyi seemed to be intimidated, and said quietly, "So you asked them to come to the capital..."

Ti Ye nodded, and said softly: "I just give them a chance to see if they want to live."

"What's more," Ti Ye paused, a strange light suddenly flashed in his eyes, and his voice suddenly dropped, almost as if he was whispering to his lover.

He said: "I want to borrow their strength to help me find someone."

When Zhang Jinyi heard this, the shock on her face had not had time to recede, and she was startled again, but she quickly realized who the other party was looking for.

She was shocked: "You want to find him—do you really believe that there is such a person?"

Ti Ye didn't speak, but the expression on his face made it clear.

This made Zhang Jinyi even more inconceivable than what Ti Ye said just now, she couldn't help but frowned, and said: "That's just a legend that was passed down in the previous dynasty, that legendary sect no longer exists, The previous dynasty has long since perished, so how can you prove that there is such a person—even if there was such a person, after more than 100 years, the other party has already been reincarnated, how can you find it?"

Ti Ye was unmoved by what she said before, until he heard the reincarnation, his eyebrows moved slightly, he seemed to have figured out something in an instant, and the whole person suddenly realized, with a relaxed expression on his face Opening it, he said, "That's right."

"Maybe that person, like me, was reincarnated a long time ago, and now he is another person."

After realizing this, Ti Ye frowned slightly, and said to himself: "If he is really reincarnated and becomes another person, it's really hard to find him."

Zhang Jinyi looked at his son, who was obviously thinking seriously, with a worried look on his face.

She didn't understand why her son believed in the rumor so much, as if possessed by a demon, and even became obsessed with it.

Speaking of that rumor, Zhang Jinyi felt that it was actually not so strange.

Just like every dynasty is about to perish, God will give a series of early warnings, such as natural disasters and man-made disasters, which emerge in endlessly.

The same is true when the previous dynasty is about to perish.

The ruler of the previous dynasty believed in comprehension and devoted himself to pursuing the way of becoming an immortal. He also specially set up a special post of national teacher and priest, and specially invited advanced cultivators to take up the post.Because of the country's lord's faith, the people followed him enthusiastically, and the status of the sects of cultivating immortals rose rapidly. Various sects of cultivating immortals also sprung up like bamboo shoots after a spring rain. Nakanoki, numerous and indispensable, had become part of the former dynasty.

Although there are many sects for cultivating immortals, there are only a few that are truly famous and have achieved results. The best cultivation resources are almost monopolized by those few sects, and among them the strongest and most influential The other family is almost regarded as the state religion.If the aristocratic clan members of the previous dynasty wanted to enter the court and become an official, they basically had to go to that sect to study for a few years. In this way, that sect was also jokingly called the royal school, which was opened exclusively for the royal children.

With such a great reputation, it can be said that no one knew it at that time, no one did not know it.

That sect is called Dao Yi Sect.

And the reason why the previous dynasty perished was because this Taoist sect was wiped out overnight.
