Chapter 377: The Secret History of the Empty Family
In the evening in the Xiangji Temple, the empty end sat in the meditation room, in front of an ancient wooden coffee table, on which were placed all kinds of tea sets, the water on the small mud stove next to it was about to boil, was "cooing" steaming, but the empty did not pay attention, still sat there with his eyes closed, chanting the Sanskrit scriptures in a low voice.
I don't know how long it took, I finally finished today's evening class, then I gently opened my eyes, lifted the water that had been boiled in the tandoor, and gently injected it into the tea bowl in front of me, and waited until the tea set was cleaned again, then took out the tea cake in the tea tube, and gently knocked down a piece, and then put it in the tea mill and grinded it gently, until it was ground into powder, and then put it in the tea bowl, first mix the tea powder with water, and then add ginger, salt and other substances, then use boiling water to wash the tea.
"The tea is ready, won't you come in yet?" Li Kong looked at the two bowls of tea in front of him, and said indifferently to the opening outside the door.
As soon as the empty words fell, I saw a figure suddenly appear outside the meditation room, most of the body was hidden in the dark, and at the same time said in a hoarse voice: "This is strange, you will invite me to tea?" ”
"Tea can purify your heart, I hope it can dilute the killing aura on your body, lest those unjust souls who died in vain collide with the pure place of Buddhism." Takera still said calmly, although the other party was his father, but every time Takera saw him, he would not have any good face, nor would he have any respect between his words.
The people outside seem to be early! He was accustomed to Sora's cold attitude, and he didn't get angry because of Sora's sarcasm, but chuckled, and slowly walked into the meditation room, with the help of the light in the room, but saw that this person was about fifty years old, seven feet tall and white-faced and long-bearded. The appearance is somewhat similar to Kong, but there are a lot of wrinkles on the forehead and corners of the eyes, and he looks a little old, this person is the father of Kong and Yan Yuru.
I saw that the other party had a smile on his face all the time, took a few steps to the front of Sora, and then sat down cross-legged on the other side of the coffee table. He put a tea bowl in front of him, and then spoke again: "Tea is like a gentleman, and there is no room for any falsehood, since you are here, it is better to remove your disguises, so that I can talk to you frankly about something." ”
Hearing Kong's words, I saw that the old man opposite raised his eyebrows, and then smiled with relief, and his voice suddenly changed from hoarse to a little sharp: "Sure enough, it is my son." Looks like you've known who I am! ”
I saw that the other party stretched out his hand and took off the beard on his lips and chin, and immediately turned into a white-faced and beardless old man, and there was a little more gloomy on his face, if Zhao Yan was here, he would definitely scream in surprise, because the other party was the great eunuch Xu Dezu he had seen with Empress Dowager Cao.
Seeing the appearance of Xu Dezu in front of him, a trace of pain flashed in his eyes, after all, he was a son of man. But seeing his father become a eunuch, this complicated feeling is really beyond words. But in comparison. Xu Dezu was very calm, only to see him pick up the tea bowl in front of him and take a sip gently, and then smiled and praised: "Good tea!" ”
"At that time, I couldn't understand why my mother suddenly hanged herself, when Yuru had just been born, and it was when she was needed the most, until I found out who you are now. Only then did I understand my mother's pain back then, didn't you think about your mother's feelings when you made this decision? Sora suddenly took a long breath and asked, even though he was already a monk, but when he mentioned his mother. The eyes were also overflowing with tears.
Looking at Kong's sad appearance, Xu Dezu was very calm, and saw him say with an indifferent expression: "Your mother hanged herself because she couldn't think about it, what does it have to do with me?" ”
"You ......" Hearing Xu Dezu say such ruthless and unrighteous words, he also stood up with a change of color, but after all, it has been so many years, he finally didn't hold back the anger in his heart, and sat down again and said sadly, "When our family lived in the south, I remember that before Yuru was born, I was already sensible, and the relationship between you and your mother was also very good, and you also cared about me very much, it can be said that the family life is very happy, but why did you suddenly seem to have changed, not only from the palace into the palace, And doing things has become unscrupulous, not only did my mother die because of you, but even me and Yuru didn't want to stay by your side anymore, don't you want to explain? ”
Hearing the empty question about the events of the year, Xu Dezu's calm face finally changed, and after hesitating for a while, he suddenly sneered and said: "You want to know what happened back then, but I hope you know the truth of the matter, but don't feel that you can't accept it?" ”
"Since I can accept your entry into the palace from the palace, what else can't I accept?" He stared at Xu Dezu word by word, he was only seven or eight years old at the time, and his memory of that time was not very clear, so he has been trying to figure out what the reason was for his originally harmonious family to become what it is now?
"Hehe, speaking of what happened back then, you also have to thank your grandfather!" I saw Xu Dezu sneer.
"Grandfather? He...... Wasn't he dead a long time ago? Hearing this, he was also shocked.
"Haha, even your own grandson thought he had passed away, it seems that his fraudulent death back then was still very successful." Xu Dezu couldn't help laughing when he saw Kong's shocked appearance, but there was a bit of grief and pain in the laughter.
After a long while, I saw Xu Dezu and then said: "At the beginning, I thought that your grandfather was dead, and even went to his grave every year to worship, but I didn't expect that he was still alive, and he also entered the palace from the palace, with the help of the strength accumulated by the family over the years, he became a big eunuch in the palace, because he thought that if he wanted to restore the country, he must get close to the royal family of Song Zhao, so that he would have a greater chance." ”
After listening to the above words, the whole person was also stunned, and he didn't wake up for a long time, he didn't expect that the first person in the family to enter the palace turned out to be his grandfather, is it really so important to them?
"It's just that your grandfather was too stupid, and he was also blinded by the hatred of the ancestors, and he only did one thing when he entered the palace, and that was to take revenge on the Song Zhao royal family like crazy, do you know how many children Renzong has in his life?" At this time, Zhao Dezu suddenly spoke again.
"Emperor Renzong had no children in his life, and only five eldest princesses were alive, which everyone knew." At this time, he said with a blank expression, he had not yet come out of the distorted history of the family.
"Hehe, you're talking about only the five who survived, plus those children who died early, Renzong should have sixteen children in his life, but eleven of them died early, don't you think it's a little strange in this?" Xu Dezu sneered again at this time, and at the same time, his eyes flashed a little crazy.
"You...... Are you saying that the causes of death of those princes and princesses are all related to grandfathers? At this time, he finally came to his senses, and at the same time, he was even more shocked, Renzong had no children in his life, and most of the sons and daughters he gave birth to died early, which is also a bit abnormal in ordinary people's homes, not to mention the royal family guarded by the imperial doctor and guarded by a special person.
"Haha~, yes, the death of those Zhao clan's evil species is indeed related to your grandfather, he has been in the palace for so many years, and he has only done such one thing, that is, to make the Song Zhao royal family childless, but unfortunately there are too many Song Zhao royal families, and in the end, the current Zhao Shu was put on the throne, so although the things your grandfather did to relieve hatred, it can be regarded as revenge for the Song Zhao royal family's bullying of our ancestors, but in fact, it has not had much effect." Xu Dezu laughed at this time and said that his ancestors had been wantonly insulted by the emperor of the Great Song Dynasty, so in his opinion, no matter how much he retaliated against the other party's descendants now, it was not too much.
"I see, the reason why Renzong has no children in his life is because of his grandfather." At this time, he also took a long breath and said, but although he also knew the insults suffered by his ancestors, it was normal for him to become a king and lose a king, and as for his grandfather, in order to retaliate, he actually attacked those little babies, which was really a little too cruel.
"Hehe, your grandfather can only do these useless things, and then he is dying, so he sent someone to inform me, you were sensible at that time, you should remember that I once went out, right?" Xu Dezu sneered again at this time and said, when he spoke, he didn't have any respect for his father, and even seemed to have some hatred.
"I remember that you did go out a few months before your mother hanged herself, and she came back a few months later, but soon after you came back, your mother committed suicide, so she must have found out about your self-palace at that time, right?" At this time, he stared at Xu Dezu's eyes and said, his mother is the person he respects the most, and he has never been able to let go of the fact that his mother hanged herself.
"Hmph, did you always think I was from the palace?" Xu Dezu asked rhetorically with hatred on his face at this time.
"Isn't it?" At this time, Li Kong also asked rhetorically, if Xu Dezu had not entered the palace voluntarily, how could he have entered the palace later, and did so many hurtful things?
"Hahahaha~, wrong, you are very wrong this time, in fact, I was the same as you at the time, I was very ashamed of what your grandfather did, and even thought about taking you away from him so that he would no longer disturb our lives, but unfortunately your grandfather did a very smart thing before he died, which made me finally change my original mind." Xu Dezu laughed again at this time and said, but in his laughter, there was endless madness! (To be continued......) R1292
