Chapter 281

Daming Palace, in front of Xuanwu Gate.

A team of qianniuwei stands at the gate and stops Qin mubai, Princess Gaoyang and others.

"Princess highness, general Qin, forgive me for being rude at the end." Qianniu Bei, the leader, said in a business-related tone, "I'm here to wait for the princess and the general."

"It seems that Li Ji has already sent someone to report it to his majesty." Qin mubai and Princess Gaoyang looked at each other and said, "tell me, what's your will?"

"Your Majesty orders Princess Gaoyang and Qin mubai to go to dajiaoguan to see the driver in Fuling coffin." The thousand cattle guards prepare the body to return a way.

"I see." Qin Mu nodded and went back to Princess Gaoyang. He looked at her anxiously. "Do you hear me, dajiaoguan?"

"Well..." Princess Gaoyang's reaction was surprisingly calm, and she nodded gently, "let's go!"

"I'll see your majesty and empress de later..."

"Mubai, don't worry." Princess Gaoyang interrupted him and took a deep breath

"Good." Qin Mu nodded in vain, and the appearance of Yinde imperial concubine appeared in his heart.

At this point, Princess Gaoyang's heart has been untied. Li Shimin doesn't have to worry about it for him. The only one that makes people feel uneasy is the Yinde imperial concubine who may have been heartbroken in the grand view.

What will this poor woman do when she sees the body of her only son?

……

Qianniuwei leads the way. Qin mubai and others protect Li you's coffin. Enter the imperial city and go to the Grand View of Daming Palace.

In today's palace, it's very lonely. There are few people on the way. Perhaps the emperor had already sent people to make arrangements. As a result, all the way through, it's just like this.

Gaoyang princess has been silent, some dignified expression, but her eyes have been showing a strong expression, as if to make some important decisions, and as if constantly to cheer herself up.

Big angle view. At the gate stood several hundred cavalry guards, whom Qin mubai had known.

Here we are. The qianniuwei retreated, and a group of Baiqi came out of the temple. They first saluted Princess Gaoyang and Qin mubai, and then began to carry the coffin into the temple.

Qin mubai called a familiar Baiqi in private and asked, "Your Majesty is in the view."

"Yes." Baiqi whispered back, then looked around warily and said in a low voice, "general, be careful. Your majesty is not happy today, and his old man's roar comes from the room from time to time. "

"Scold Yin de imperial concubine?"

"Then I don't know All in all. The general must be careful

"I see. Go ahead with your work

Just then, several monks came out of the Taoist temple. All the way out of the Taoist temple with hands folded and eyes fixed, did not say hello to anyone.

"Strange, where are the monks in the Taoist temple? What's more, these big headed monks don't seem to be small. They don't pay attention to Gao Yang and our general. They don't even come to bow when they see each other. " Qin mubai whispered to himself.

Princess Gaoyang was standing beside Qin mubai, watching those Baiqi carrying the coffin quietly. At this time, she said softly, "it's the monks of Famen Temple, the royal temple. These monks regard themselves as non monks and eminent monks. They still don't kneel down when they see the emperor. They have been deeply favored by the emperor. "

"Famen Temple?" Qin mubai murmured curiously and said, "is it the famous" Asoka Temple "

"Yes." Princess Gaoyang nodded and said, "Famen Temple is located a hundred miles west of Chang'an. Its original name is asokang temple. There are more than 5000 monks in the temple. A few years ago, my grandfather emperor Wude renamed it "Famen Temple.". I have heard my father talk about this temple. It seems that it has a history of hundreds of years and was built at the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty. In the temple, there is a pagoda with Sakyamuni Buddha's relic. Hundreds of years ago, a man named Asoka unified Tianzhu and divided the Sakyamuni Buddhist relic into 84000 pieces, which were sent to various Buddhist holy places to build pagodas for worship. It is said that the word "tower" was created at that time. Before that, I never had such a word in the Central Plains. "

"Gao Yang, I didn't expect you to be so erudite." Qin mubai also intended to distract Princess Gaoyang from being too nervous, so he said with a smile, "Famen Temple, I've heard a lot about it, but I've never seen it. We'll have a look some other day. "

"Good..." Princess Gaoyang nodded her head with a smile, but she felt pale and powerless.

At this time, the coffin pivot had been unloaded, and more than a dozen riders raised the coffin and slowly entered the Taoist temple. In order to facilitate the entry of the spiritual pivot, the gates of the Taoist temple were demolished. It seems that the emperor is really ready.

a hundred rode to come to embrace the boxing to worship: "Princess highness, general Qin, your majesty has invited."

"Well, lead the way." Qin mubai took Princess Gaoyang's hand and patted it gently in her palm, smiling.

Princess Gaoyang also smiles. They walk in front of their shoulders and follow the Baiqi to the Taoist temple.

All the Taoist nuns in the temple were gone, and all the way through a few porches, only the emperor's close guards were guarding. When they were young, Qin mubai and Princess Gaoyang went to an independent courtyard and stood in front of a door.Baiqi leads them to this place, then takes a fist to exit from Xuyuan. The pivot was soon carried.

Qin mubai and Princess Gaoyang are waiting to make a voice to see each other. The door is opened from inside. Li Shimin stood in front of them, glanced at them without expression, and said calmly, "come in - carry the pivot in!"

"Yes."

When they agreed, Qin mubai and Princess Gaoyang entered the room. Hundreds of cavalry guards wheezed the coffin in, and they all retreated quietly.

Within a hundred steps of the whole courtyard, there were no idle people.

This room is exactly the meditation room where the Yinde imperial concubine rests peacefully. At this time, with snow-white hair, she still kneels on the futon, bows her head and looks at the bronze statue of Laozi in silence.

Li Shimin covered the door in person, cut his hands on his back and went to the coffin.

He twisted his eyebrows, bit his teeth, and his cheeks bulged slightly. Staring at the coffin but not speaking, the meaning in the eyes is very complicated.

The room is quiet, you can clearly hear the burning of candles.

After a while, Li Shimin cleared his throat and said, "your son is back."

The Yinde imperial concubine who knelt on the futon trembled a little, didn't say a word, stood up silently and turned around.

All of a sudden, Qin mubai's heart twitched Yinde imperial concubine, just a year no see, she actually like old ten years old?!

Princess Gaoyang was obviously more surprised and distressed. She looked at Princess Yinde, her eyes turned red, and her voice trembled: "mother Princess..."

"Good..." Yin de imperial concubine is shallow however of a smile, came up to lightly caress to caress Gao Yang princess's hair bun. Then, he reached out and stroked the coffin, just as he stroked Princess Gaoyang, stroking the newly painted coffin, and murmured, "son, you're back..."

No one spoke.

At present, it seems that everything is so inappropriate.

Li Shimin has always maintained that look, quiet, solemn, sharp and complex eyes, also do not know what he is thinking.

"Open the coffin and let me have a look at him." Yin de imperial concubine also didn't cry, the facial expression and the eyes all calmed to be unusual, light of say.

Qin mubai turned to Li Shimin for his advice.

"Don't look at me." Li Shimin's light way.

Qin Mu nodded and thought: if it were not for the king's reserve, Li Shimin would have gone to lift the coffin by himself. Ah After all, blood is thicker than water. Why didn't he want to see his unworthy son at last?

So Qin mubai came forward, untied the rope wrapped in the coffin, and slid the coffin over.

The body had been antiseptic, and there was no peculiar smell in the coffin. At the moment, Li you seems to be asleep with a smile on his face, but his face is as white as white paper.

Li Shimin, Princess Yinde and Princess Gaoyang all quietly look at Li you's body and fall into silence.

There is no expected crying and emotional loss of control, at present, the three people actually so tacit understanding of quiet, quiet surprisingly.

Gaoyang princess has been supporting Yinde princess, afraid her mother fainted or how. At this time, Yinde Princess gently put aside Princess Gaoyang's hand, put her hand into the coffin, stroked Li you's face.

"You er, you er..." She called in a low voice, just like when Li you was young, she was calling him to get up.

Li Shimin took a deep breath and sighed heavily. He cut his hands on his back and tightened his brows.

"Mother. Just cry... " Looking at her mother like this, Princess Gaoyang was already worried. Her voice trembled and she said, "it's better to cry."

"Mother doesn't cry. Why do you want to cry? " On the contrary, Yinde's concubine smiles and caresses Li you's face kindly, with a few clear crow's feet at the corners of her eyes.

For a moment, Princess Gaoyang didn't know what to say. Instead, she wept.

At this time, Li Shimin said to himself, "I'm sorry. He is going to be plated with gold and chromium and placed in the holy Tomb of Ashoka tower. "

"Oh?" Qin mubai was surprised.

"Why, you don't think so?" Li Shimin asked.

"No. Wei Chen is just a little puzzled. " Qin mubai said truthfully.

At this time, Yinde Princess chuckled and said, "the Li family regards Laozi as their ancestor and respects Taoism. His Majesty's son, however, is to be buried in the Ayu tower of Famen Temple. No wonder general Qin is puzzled. "

The implication is that it means to fight for Li you. According to the Royal custom, after the death of princes and princesses, they should be buried in the mausoleum of the former Emperor, even if they were born from the common people. Right now. Empress changsun has been buried in Zhaoling, which is the mausoleum where Li Shimin will lie a hundred years later. According to common sense, Li you should be buried in Zhaoling. Even if he had no right to be buried in the mausoleum, he should be buried in the countryside as a marquis. Now, but don't let him "live in peace", no wonder Yinde imperial concubine so angry.

Li Shimin's reaction was calm. He said, "I knew you would be unhappy. I did it with good intentions. Taoism advocates the practice and attainment of the Tao while Buddhism emphasizes the reincarnation and karma. You'er is a sinful man in this life. I hope that he can live under the influence of Buddhism. To purify the demons and live in bliss, you can be a peaceful and good person in the afterlife. What's wrong with that? "Qin Mu nodded in vain, without saying anything. He guessed that this incident of Li you had touched Li Shimin a lot. After he ascended the throne from the change of his own Xuanwu, I'm afraid that he left a shadow in his heart. He hated, or was afraid of, his son and imitated him to do such a thing. Day defense and night defense, such a thing happened after all. At present, he is going to put Li you's body in Famen Temple instead of burying it. To put it mildly, he is going to let him go through the Buddha's Dharma and live in bliss. But does the deep meaning have the meaning of "hanging corpse and alerting"?

He hoped that his other sons would learn from Li you.

"What a cruel father." Yin de imperial concubine shakes her head, her face is still smiling, but it is bitter to the extreme.

Princess Gaoyang didn't know if she thought of this layer, but she was tearful and didn't cry or speak.

"Ah Whatever you say! " Li Shimin sighed again, shook his head and said. "This is the end of the matter. Everything is irreparable. I only hope that Li you will not repeat his mistakes in the next life

"Oh! He's dead, and you don't forgive him Yinde concubine shook her head and gazed at Li you's face. Her eyes showed bottomless despair and sadness. She murmured, "You'er, thank you for your good father! If there is an afterlife, you should not be born in the imperial family. That's the greatest blessing! "

Li Shimin glanced at the Yinde imperial concubine and turned to Qin mubai: "mubai, close the coffin!"

"Yes." Qin Mu Bai arched his hand and was about to step forward. Yinde imperial concubine suddenly said: "slow down!"

"What are you doing?" Li Shimin's voice was a little deep and dignified.

"Nothing."

Yinde took out a pair of scissors, which had been prepared for a long time. She frightened Princess Gaoyang and Li Shimin and said, "stop!"

Yinde imperial concubine is a light smile, conveniently cut off a bunch of their own white hair, sprinkled into the coffin.

"You'er, remember the smell of mother. In the afterlife, I will be my child. "

"You!..." Li Shimin wrong ER and some anger staring at Yinde imperial concubine. I don't know what to say.

"Why, does it violate your Majesty's power?" Yin de imperial concubine threw scissors casually, hit the ground abrupt jingle.

Then, she turned around, went to the bronze statue peacefully, and knelt down again as before.

"Mother..." Princess Gaoyang seemed to feel something wrong. She quickly went to the side of Yinde, squatted down and asked in a low voice, "do you really want to Are you a monk? "

"Home, no home. What's the difference? What are the differences between becoming a monk and not becoming a monk? " Yin de imperial concubine light way, "cut off vexation silk, cut off this life margin.". Since your majesty says that Buddhism can repair karma in the afterlife, I will become a nun. I will spend the rest of my life, hoping that I can continue the relationship with you'er in the next life. Gao Yang, do it yourself. Don't think I'll read it again. "

"Mother, don't I don't want you to be a monk! Mother, do you know that when a nun wants to shave off her hair, it's ugly! " Princess Gaoyang cried eagerly in a low voice, "father, please come to persuade mother! She's a beautiful lady. If she really goes out of her family and becomes a nun, will it be a royal disgrace to spread it out? "

"Let her go!" Li Shimin has a little bit of the smell of letting the broken pot fall.

Qin mubai said nothing and covered the coffin. My heart is full of feelings.

Li Shimin and Yinde imperial concubine are a pair of dead enemies. When their son died, it was clear that both of them were very sad, but it seemed that they would not let each other go. It's as if they're all about the sin of their son's life. Blame it on the other side.

"Mubai, the funeral of the king of Qi is up to you." Li Shimin suddenly said, "I have already given an order to master Huiye, the abbot of Famen Temple. In addition, I will also assign officials from Hubu, Taichang temple and Taimiao temple to assist you. If you don't understand anything, just discuss with them. "

"Yes, I do." Qin mubai bowed his hand to answer the promise.

Li Shimin nodded, his face still solemn. He looked sideways at Princess Gaoyang, as if to say that she was still resting. Finally, he couldn't help calling out: "Gaoyang."

Princess Gaoyang answered. After wiping his tears, he went to Li Shimin and gave a gift: "the emperor is here."

Li Shimin held out his hand, stroked her head with pity, and said, "later, I will come to Penglai hall to see my father."

"Yes..."

"I'll go first." After Li Shimin said that, he turned to go out, but his step was a meal. He looked back at Li you's coffin, browed slightly, and finally strode away.

Qin mubai and Princess Gaoyang watched the emperor go away. They all feel that this man, no matter how quiet his expression is, can hardly hide the unspeakable sadness in his heart.

On the other hand, it's not surprising that she should have cried and even fainted. On the contrary, she didn't even shed tears.

That sentence - "mother does not cry. Why do you want to cry? " But words are like needles, which can pierce people's hearts.

Perhaps she also thinks that Li you's death is not a relief to study. Or maybe. There is no more sorrow than death of heart. Her tears have already dried up.……

Soon afterwards, several officials from Zongzheng temple, Hubu and Taimiao came together to ask Qin mubai if he could move the king's coffin to Taimiao to offer sacrifices to his ancestors and perform some simple Royal funeral ceremonies.

Qin mubai was about to ask Yinde's concubine. She turned her back to Qin mubai and said, "mubai, let them take it away! It's just a skin bag, nothing to miss. You'er's soul will accompany me. "

"Yes..." Qin mubai felt astringent and didn't know what to say. So he called those people in, carefully carried out Li you's coffin, loaded the car and carried it to the temple.

"You all go!" Yin de imperial concubine says so.

"Mother Let me accompany you, won't you? " Gaoyang Princess rather worried pleaded.

"Not good." Yinde concubine gently shook her head, but said firmly, "let me get along with your brother alone for a while! You go to see your father, mubai. Do you have many things to do? Let's all go. Don't worry about me. "

Seeing that she was so resolute, Princess Gaoyang and Qin mubai could not insist, so they had to leave.

"Mubai, I'm so worried about my mother. Do you think she will What's wrong with you After leaving the door, Princess Gaoyang said anxiously.

"No Qin mubai returned without thinking.

"Yes? Why are you so sure? " Princess Gaoyang was a little surprised.

"I don't know." Qin Mu Bai frowned, looked up at the tall and magnificent palace, sighed and said, "it's just It feels like that. "

"Feel..." Princess Gaoyang mumbled and repeated, shaking her head blankly. "I'm still worried. Why don't we tell those nuns to pay more attention to her and send some soldiers to protect her? "

"All right!"

Later they left dajiaoguan. Princess Gaoyang went to Penglai hall to see Li Shimin. Qin mubai went to Taimiao.

Some of the great monks are doing some land and water ashram, with Sanskrit sound circling the beam and fragrant fire. Li you's body was carried out, bathed and changed clothes for chrome plating. Qin mubai specially told Li you to put the bundle of white hair of Yinde imperial concubine into Li you's mouth with a huge night pearl.

If there is an afterlife. With the guidance of Ye Zhuzhu and the white hair as a letter, Li you should be able to find her mother in this life and continue her relationship with her son.

At the moment, Qin mubai hopes that Li you can cross to another world just like himself. Like myself, I can meet a mother who looks the same as Yinde princess. Or even better, he went through a few years ago and became himself.

There are his beloved mother and sister.

He can Do it again!
