For the emperor

Cang Tiansu didn't know what Master Ning Yuan said to Cang Jinglan. Of course, he didn't want to know at all. The job of the official department is not easy. He has just been transferred, and he is not familiar with the staff. It is also very difficult to adapt of.

Ever since the trip to the Lenggong on the eve of the coming-of-age ceremony, Cang Tiansu has untied the stalks that have been stuck in his heart all along. Come on, remember the old life.

Master Ningyuan chose to live near the Lenggong, so Cang Tiansu reduced the frequency of hanging out in the Lenggong.

But for the fourth time, he was pointing at the pagoda tree in front of the broken brick house in Lenggong, and was telling Duan Yu about the foolish behavior of burying things in the soil under the tree roots when he was a child. Turning his head to look, he saw Ning Yuan stumbling over.

This old man, who was about to exceed double digits in age, had a very quiet quality. He moved very slowly step by step, slowly stirring the surrounding air, and his demeanor was calm and open-minded, just like a real Buddha.

Cang Tian has always been influenced by Li Mi, and he is an atheist, but he is still willing to show the minimum respect to such a well-known old man, so he saluted respectfully and greeted him.

Ning Yuan held a string of Buddhist beads in his hand, looked at him quietly for a long while, and slowly broke into a smile, the wrinkles on his face were full of kindness and gentleness, and his brown eyes were clear and peaceful: "I don't know how big I am when I leave for many years." Is the prince all right?"

Cang Tiansu was very uncomfortable being looked at, and he didn't like this kind of gaze that seemed to see people's whole body clearly and thoroughly.

If Ning Yuan has been looking at Emperor Cang Jing with such eyes, then he has no doubts about the rumors he heard earlier, that Emperor Jing flew into a rage after talking with Master Ning Yuan. .

When Cang Tiansu heard this news for the first time, he regretted that Li Quan had the ability to stop the furious Emperor Cang Jing. With Master Ning Yuan's prestige among the people, if Cang Jinglan really killed him Cut it off, the public outrage he aroused was enough for him to drink a pot.

"Master, I'm afraid I remembered it wrong. This junior didn't have the chance to meet the master before." Cang Tiansu chuckled, and slowly lowered his eyes to cover up the stream of light in his eyes, and he had an inexplicable premonition.

"The poor monk once had a relationship with the eldest prince 17 years ago." Ning Yuan put his hands together and returned a half salute.

Seventeen years ago, he was still in Yan Ji's stomach, Cang Tiansu suppressed his curiosity, and abnormally didn't get to the bottom of it.

He trusted his intuition in this kind of matter, so he just pulled Duan Yu, nodded apologetically to Ning Yuan, spoke softly, and smiled lightly: "The younger generation will not disturb the master's sightseeing."

Duan Yu widened his eyes and looked at Ning Yuan curiously and in awe. Although he really wanted to listen to him to say a few more words, even if he stood a little closer, he could feel the Buddha's aura, but he noticed Cang Tiansu's indifferent attitude and nodded hurriedly. Followed him and started to leave.

Ning Yuan looked at these two young men who had turned half the sky of Wuji Continent upside down, and didn't care about the cold reception he received, just smiled lightly, and whispered: "People come and go alone in the world, live and die alone. , suffering and happiness, there is no substitute."

He made it clear that he had something to say, since he couldn't avoid it, Cang Tiansu simply stopped and looked sideways at him: "Master, are you talking to this junior?"

"Without him, the poor monk is just reciting Buddhist gatha." After Ning Yuan finished speaking, he slowly turned a Buddhist bead, "The sun will move, the moon will lose, the road will be stained, and there will be no time to destroy. When things prosper, they decline. It is also the constant of heaven and earth. Therefore, there are deficiencies, so that we can reach perfection infinitely."

Cang Tiansu took a deep look at him, heard that there was something in his words, and gave up the idea of ​​leaving immediately: "This junior is extremely stupid, and I hope the master will explain it clearly."

"The past cannot be remembered, and those who come can still be chased. Instead of being immersed in the pain of the past and unable to extricate yourself, holding grudges for the rest of your life will only increase your sadness. It is better to look up and look forward, with longing and hope in your heart." Ning Yuan's eyes were not on him. Stop, and continue to move forward slowly, the voice is not loud, "Your Highness, if you let others go, why don't you let yourself go?"

Cang Tiansu had mixed feelings in his heart at this moment, but he didn't know when he became so famous. The right and wrong between him and the Liu family had already reached Ning Yuan's ears, and he was even asked to explain him.

He stood still and watched Ning Yuan go farther and farther away, and there was no one left. Then he turned his head and smiled at Duan Yu: "Why are you looking at me with this expression?"

Duan Yu smiled awkwardly, and scratched his hair uncomfortably: "No, it's nothing, in fact, I think what he said is quite right, I think you are too tired to live..."

When Duan Yu was speaking, he had been very carefully speculating on Cang Tiansu's expression, but he didn't see anything, and couldn't figure out if he was angry, so he explained in a panic: "I have no other intention, just to express my opinion , I understand how bitter you have been all this time, and I didn't let you let go of your hatred or anything."

Duan Yu has always understood that there is a forbidden area in Cang Tiansu's heart, which is a place that no one else can touch, no matter how nice or close people are, so he can only walk around carefully, turning a blind eye.

"I understand," Cang Tiansu held his hand, "After this matter, I want to go to the Great Compassion Temple to fast, wash away the sins on my body, and also meditate for a while."

"How long is a period of time?" Duan Yu asked, staring into his eyes.

"Maybe three to two months, maybe three to five years... Don't worry, I will come back on time to attend your wedding with your eldest sister." Cang Tiansu half closed his eyes, and his voice was extremely soft.

As soon as he finished speaking, Duan Yu threw his hand away with a sullen face, pushed the man away without saying a word, and strode forward.

Cang Tiansu looked at Duan Yu's back, but did not chase after him, but sighed helplessly: "Don't be stupid, you are the only blood of the Duan family, have you forgotten what the general said before he died?"

Duan Yu paused on his heels, turned his head halfway, then abruptly stopped his movements, snorted heavily, strode away without turning his head.

Cang Tiansu was not surprised by his sudden turn of events, because he had expected it and did not panic.This is a twists and turns that he and Duan Yu will eventually go through. If we don't spread it out now, we will face it sooner or later.

Cang Tiansu didn't feel much touched in his heart. His character determines that reason will always overwhelm emotion. It is impossible for him not to marry all his life. Not only will he marry a wife, but he is also destined to have wives and concubines in groups. Marriage is needed to strengthen the relationship with courtiers.

In this relationship, Cang Tiansu has always placed him and Duan Yu on the same footing. Since he couldn't do it, he naturally wouldn't ask Duan Yu not to marry for him.

What's more, it was Emperor Cang Jing who personally appointed Duan Yu to marry her. As the eldest princess, it was a matter of the royal family's face, so Duan Yu couldn't help but be disobedient, otherwise the Duan family's only seedling would also be folded in.

Forget it, Duan Yu is still unwilling to accept this fact, so let him slowly enlighten him, but Duan Yu has always been pure and enthusiastic in his feelings, and it may take a lot of work to let him understand this, let's just take it one step at a time, Cang Tiansu frowned worriedly.
