Phoenix Shadow Coming From the Sky: Ten, De Yin Mo Violation 4
Dong Shixiu did not go to court for a few days, Fengji recuperated in the mansion, and Feng Duying stayed behind closed doors after returning to the imperial capital, so he was too busy with Huangti, Ningjingyuan, Baiyima, Huajing How many people are there in Taiwan and South China? Not only do they have to deal with daily political affairs, but also seeing that the winter solstice is approaching, the whole court has to make preparations for the sacrifice to heaven, so several people go to the palace to stay in the official hall every day, and they have not returned to the house for several days.
At the same time, everyone in Liang Duo was a little anxious. The papers had been handed over day after day, but His Majesty didn't move at all. His behavior was very different from the past, and it was really unpredictable. If His Majesty loses his temper as before and protects General Feng, then they will have more words to instigate the officials. At that time, no matter how much His Majesty defends his shortcomings, he will not be able to block everyone's mouths. So he wanted to discuss with Feng Renran again, but after sending the news, Feng Renran avoided meeting, and after secretly cursing treacherously, Liang Duo could only hold it down temporarily.
The sixth day of November.
On this day, Dong Shixiu did not go to court as usual, and then he waited for Ning Jingyuan in the Jingchen Palace. The two discussed behind closed doors for an hour before Ning Ningyuan left the palace.
At the time of You, Dong Shixiu was sitting alone in Jingchen Hall, and Long Tu came to report: "Your Majesty, Mr. Yu has arrived."
Dong Shixiu, who was wandering outside the sky, was a little stunned when he heard about it, and then he came back to his senses, stood up suddenly, and asked quickly: "Where is the Jade Master? But outside the city? I will go to meet him."
"Mr. Yu is in Lingxiao Hall." Long Tu replied.
Dong Shixiu stopped his rushing steps, then quickly turned around and headed towards the Lingxiao Hall. When he reached the Lingxiao Hall, he opened the door, and saw a tall and thin person standing by the window.
Seeing that figure from behind, Dong Shixiu suddenly relaxed, and a warm current in his chest slowly spread. "Jade Master." Stepping into the main hall, the emperor of Dadong respectfully and sincerely bowed to the back figure by the window.
Long Tu quietly closed the palace door, then walked out of Sanzhang, and waited quietly.
The figure by the window turned around, it was a man who didn't look young but you couldn't tell his age. The main hall was not lit, and the light was dim, only a twilight light came in from the window, reflecting his distant eyebrows like mountains and rivers, with a clarity and tranquility beyond the world.
"Sixiu, come here." The person by the window beckoned. In the whole world, the only one who can directly call Emperor Dadong by his name is the legendary master——Yu Yantian.
On the left side of the main hall, there is a floor-to-ceiling round window with a height and a width. There is a thick soft carpet on the floor in front of the window. At this moment, Dong Shixiu walked over, took off his shoes, stepped on the soft blanket and walked to the window.
"Look." Yu Yantian pointed out the window and said.
In front of the window is a plum tree, which grows extremely tall and is full of plum blossoms. Looking up from the window where they are standing, they can only see bright red plum blossoms blooming in clusters, as if blooming in the sky. On the sky, in the cold wind at twilight, the pavilions swayed, like clusters of fireworks burning and jumping in the sky, shining brightly and scorching eyes.
Seeing this scene, Dong Shixiu couldn't help feeling his eyes light up.
"Some things, if you stand in a different position and look in a different direction, you will have a completely different scene." Yu Yantian said indifferently, and after he finished speaking, he turned around and sat down on the soft blanket, slightly Looking up at Dong Shixiu standing in front of the window, "It depends on whether your eyes can see it."
Dong Shixiu's heart was shocked, and something flashed in his mind. He looked away from the red plum outside the window, and sat down opposite Yu Yantian, "Thank you, Master Yu, for your teaching."
Yu Yantian just smiled faintly, stretched out his hand to take the teapot on the low table, and poured two cups of tea. With the curling white air, a scent of tea permeated the hall, and the fragrance was refreshing.
"I haven't seen you for a few years, how is Jade Master?" Dong Shixiu looked at his mentor opposite. Judging from their appearance and demeanor, they are no different from when they parted. In fact, since they met when they were young, their mentor has always looked like this. They are all fathers now, but it seems that their mentor will never grow old.
Yu Yantian pushed a cup of tea in front of him, picked up the other cup with one hand, took a sip and put it down, then looked up at him, and said: "These years, I have lived with your teacher in a small village. He bought some chickens and ducks, raised a yard of flowers, and accompanied Shi Kuang to study, and also cultivated, picked tea, and brewed wine together... It was a fulfillment of his childhood wish. The back eaves of the elm and willow shade, the front of the peach and plum hall. It is warm and warm in the distant village, and the smoke in Yiyixu.'”[Note ○1]
He was not surprised when he heard that Dong started to cultivate. After so many years of getting along, he knew the habits of his mentor. "How is the teacher's mother? The younger brother should be an adult by now."
"Your teacher's wife is very good, but Shi Kuang has indeed grown a lot taller." Yuyan had a faint smile on his face all the time. It was clearly winter evening, but his smile and demeanor were like a spring breeze blowing over a snowy field, It is also clear, bright and warm.
The casual question and answer made Dong Shixiu feel his shoulders loosen, and his mind slowly became calm. He took a sip from the teacup, and a warm current poured into his stomach. In the gradually dimming twilight, only the fragrance of tea wafted up in the hall, and occasionally there was a slight sound of drinking tea, as quiet as an ancient temple in a deep pool.
After drinking a cup of tea, the two put down their teacups and looked at each other.
For a moment, Yu Yantian's gentle and clear voice sounded: "On the way I came, I heard that you just leveled Jiuluo Mountain, but that shouldn't be the reason why you asked Chongyuan to find me."
After ruling the world that year, Yu Yantian was about to retire. He treated the eight people more favorably than their parents, but when the wealth and honor were already in his hands, he did not take money, did not report his whereabouts, and went away in a leisurely manner with his wife and children. No matter how hard the eight people tried their best to keep them, they couldn't keep them, so they had to send them off thousands of miles away, one way after another, until finally Yu Yantian said helplessly, "Okay, in case...you have something to do, you can find Chongyuan." Find me", the eight people were released. Liu Chongyuan is a knight-errant and an old friend of Yu Yantian. He left this clue because he couldn't hold back the eight people's persistence, and because he was reluctant to abandon his disciple completely.
"Jade Master." Dong Shixiu called softly, but fell silent again. He turned his head and looked out of the window. At the end of the sky, it seems to see beyond the years.
Yu Yantian didn't speak, just sat quietly, looking at his disciple --- today's supreme under heaven.
After a long silence, Dong Shixiu said, "Master Yu, when people think of the emperor, they only think of the supreme imperial power and wealth." He still looked sideways out of the window.
Yu Yantian nodded slightly, but neither agreed nor refuted.
"Actually, we didn't think the same way back then." Dong Shixiu raised his dark brows, with a slight self-mockery in his eyes, "But I didn't know until I became emperor that on this shoulder, While resting on supreme authority and splendor, one is burdened with burdens and responsibilities that weigh over a thousand mountains.”
Yuyan said nothing, quietly watching Dong Shixiu.
"Naturally, I don't regret being the emperor." Dong Shixiu raised his head slightly, his profound facial features were very clear in the twilight, and the grace and confidence of an emperor stretched between his brows. "Back then, when I agreed to marry the Liang family, I was mentally prepared. No matter whether it was successful or not, regardless of merits or demerits, I was the eldest brother and should bear it."
Yu Yantian smiled, vaguely approving.
"Yu Shi, I am the emperor today, and I have to make a decision in everything." Dong Shixiu turned his head and looked at his teacher, calmly and calmly. "I'm looking for the Jade Master because the Jade Master gave the eight of us the gift of rebirth. Because of the Jade Master, we are the eight of us today, and we have this Dadong Dynasty. So although I made a decision, I still insist Let the Jade Master know."
Yu Yantian's heart moved, but what he thought about was what he had learned along the way.
"Yu Shi, I have made a decision." Dong Shixiu's eyes were clear and his expression was firm.
