God's destiny is like a mountain.
The next day, the Ministry of Officials issued an official document, and the emperor used Pei You'an to re-use Pei You'an.
The news spread, and colleagues who had contacts with Pei Youan came to see them off one after another. They were greeted and sent off one after another. After two days of work, they had to leave the next day. This evening, Pei Youan rode out of the city alone and came to the foot of the Ci'en Temple. , accompanied by a twilight in front of a mountain, climbed the mountain steps alone and knocked on the temple door.
It is the time of the evening class in the temple, and the evening bells are blowing in the wind.
Pei You'an came to the root hall attached to the east of the temple, and entered the cross courtyard where the ancestor of the Pei family was enshrined. After a few words, Pei Youan asked about Yuzhu's current situation.
The old lady died less than a year ago, and the lotus position has not yet returned to her place, but a spiritual pagoda was built here alone to eliminate disasters and evil, and then enter the root church after one year.
When the old lady was about to leave, in addition to arranging the separation of the two rooms, she also made arrangements for Yuzhu, who had served her for nearly ten years, and returned her body deed, leaving her with enough money for the rest of her life, as well as a yard, said In the future, if she has a suitable person and is willing to marry, she will go out from Pei's house. At that time, after the hot filial piety, there were countless people who came to her to tell her that they were kissing her, but Yuzhu should not. She followed the old lady's lotus position here. Now, more than half a year has passed.
Hearing Pei You'an's question, the old woman hurriedly said: "For more than half a year, Yuzhu has been chanting karma for the old lady every day. The eldest grandma told me to take more care of Miss Yuzhu, and the old lady remembers it."
Pei You'an nodded, came to the room where the old lady was alone, and pushed open the door.
Yuzhu was kneeling on a green leaf futon next to the tablet, chanting scriptures silently, and when she heard the sound of the door being pushed behind her, she turned her head, got up in a hurry, greeted Pei Youan, and said in surprise, "Master, why are you here? Not with grandma. Have you returned to Quanzhou?"
I haven't seen her for half a year, and she has lost a lot of weight just as the old lady said earlier.
Pei You'an bowed to the old lady's spiritual seat, got up after finishing, and said, "I just returned to Beijing a few days ago. Long live and use me, and leave the eldest grandma in Quanzhou."
He looked at the dimly lit room, pondered for a while, and asked, "Yuzhu, what are your plans for the future?"
Yuzhu slowly lowered her head and was silent for a moment.
"When I have been here for the old lady for a year, and I have repaid the old lady's kindness to me, I will find a nunnery and settle down."
Pei You'an said, "Yuzhu, I want to ask you to help me with one thing."
Yuzhu was startled.
"Master, please tell me. I used to be the maid of the old lady, but now the old lady is gone, I am still the servant of the Pei family. As long as Yuzhu can do it, I will go to the soup and fire!"
Pei You'an said, "You are no longer the servant of the Pei family. I want to invite you to Quanzhou to take care of the eldest grandma for me."
Yuzhu was stunned again, hesitated, and said, "Master, what do you mean? I don't understand..."
Pei You'an smiled and said, "Long live this trip with me, I haven't been here for a year and a half, and I'm afraid I won't be able to come back. Those places are dangerous and dangerous, and the eldest grandma is too fragile to go there. Now her grandmother is getting weaker, and the family Although there are servants who can be trusted, but the mother is weak and the elder brother is still childish, she has told you before, and you are careful and capable, are you willing to go to be with her?"
Yuzhu fixedly looked at the man on the opposite side who was standing with his back to the twilight, and his figure was shrouded in the thick twilight. He slowly knelt down towards him and kowtowed: "It is Yuzhu's blessing to be able to accompany and serve Grandma, Yuzhu is willing."
Pei Youan nodded: "Someone will pick you up in two days, you can go after you pack up."
Yuzhu should have sent him out of the threshold and watched his back gradually disappear into the twilight.
Pei You'an stayed overnight in the temple. Early the next morning, before the eastern sky turned white, people left the temple and went down the mountain to return to the city.
At the fifth watch, the morning light was slightly white, and the white mist drifted in the fields. Accompanied by a heavy and simple squeaking sound, the gate of the imperial city, which had been closed overnight, slowly opened, and a line of heavy troops came out from it. It was a small car covered in green felt, swaying, breaking through the misty morning fog, and heading out of the city.
This is the group of people who were instructed to escort the abolished prince back to Longqianzu's place to take care of his father. The leader of the team, General Jinyiwei Dahan, rode on the horse and saw a figure on the opposite side of the road leading the horse. At first, he didn't pay attention. , When he got closer, he recognized that the person was actually Pei You'an, and hurriedly ordered the team to suspend, called "Master Pei", and dismounted to greet him.
Pei You'an smiled and nodded at the big Han general, led the horse, and continued to walk along the side road toward the city gate. When he passed the felt car, the car body suddenly shook violently, and the shackles hit the iron grid like gold iron. The voice seemed to be someone struggling inside, and then a voice pierced through the green felt, and came out: "Pei You'an, don't think you've won me! The omen of heaven, the outcome is uncertain, this is definitely not mine. It's over! Even if the secret of heaven misunderstands me, I can't come back in this lifetime, and you will never end in a good life! In his eyes, there are only the world and the throne, do you think he will give you a good death?"
Words and sentences, the sound is in the ear, as if a deep-seated hatred has been condensed. Nearby Jiawei, all of them changed color and looked at each other, but Pei Youan seemed to have not heard it. He looked forward with both eyes, and without stopping for half a minute, he continued to hold the horse in his hand, walked forward, and passed by the blue car.
Seeing that Pei You'an had walked over, General Dahan immediately ordered the entire team to move forward and not stop for a moment.
The horse's hoofs stepped on the ground, the wheels were sparkling, and after a short stay, the group of horses continued to move forward.
A sneer began to slowly come out from the car. At first, it was just a low ho ho, and then it turned into a wild laughter. The laughter became louder and louder, until the group gradually disappeared in the morning fog, which finally disappeared completely. .
…
That night, Xiao Lie asked Pei Youan.
Li Yuangui said: "Long live, Master Pei has left the capital today. The slaves personally escorted him out of the city, and Cui Yinshui followed him. He will definitely serve the master in his daily life. Please rest assured."
Li Yuangui glanced at him and whispered again: "Long live again. The past two days, Master Pei has been busy with entertainment. Last night, he went to the Ci'en Temple alone. He went to the root hall first, thinking that it was to worship the ancestors. After he came out, he went there. Rotate around the Tibetan Scriptures Pavilion, spend the night in the Tibetan Scriptures Pavilion, and leave the temple at dawn, and then return to the city."
Xiao Lie was fascinated for a moment and asked, "Li Yuangui, I ask you, if I cannot be compatible with that nephew of mine, will You An stand for me, or for his student?"
Li Yuangui bowed and said, "Why do you have such doubts in Long live? Lord Pei's loyalty to Long live, and you still use the mouth of a slave to say it?"
Xiao Lie was silent for a moment, and then asked again: "I ask you again, this time I acted like this, he will know in the future, will he be separated from me?"
Li Yuangui hesitated for a while, and said, "Long live, you have been thinking too much. Long live a dragon, soaring to the heaven, diligent in government and love for the people, everyone in the world praises it, the ruler and ministers are harmonious, like a fish in water, Lord Pei is the most discerning person. , how could you be at odds with Wan Sui?"
Xiao Lie slowly let out a breath and said, "I hope it is as you said. It's just that this matter cannot be told to him for the time being, so he must keep the news."
Li Yuangui should be, seeing the rare relaxed look on the emperor's face for many days, he also heaved a sigh of relief.
