Long Live The Emperor!

Chapter 3 3. Marriage

At night, the blizzard is rampant, and it is like this in the north until winter, and the weather is fickle.

The world is also impermanent.

Xia Ji lit the candle, and the light was faint, but it rose into the sky, illuminating the bookshelves around them, and the bookshelves were arched around them. Like a person falling into a deep well, he opened the “Now Tathagata” at the bottom of the well.

Turned page by page.

Recite word by word.

His voice is not loud or small, but it will be drowned out by the wind and snow.

Seeing that in the middle of the night, the candle had burned a little.

Xia Ji closed the book.

The lonely shadow fell on the bookshelf.

He murmured: “Cut the flesh to feed the eagle, sacrifice the body to feed the tiger, all beings are equal. If all beings are equal, why do you need to give up the flesh, why bother to divide the bodhisattva, bhikkhu, and protector?”

The pages are closed.

A great mystery suddenly emerged from the bottom of my heart, and the soul of the eyebrows slowly produced a golden skill bead-“Now Tathagata Zen”.

Seeing the color of the skill bead, Xia Ji knew that his sister hadn’t run in vain this time. This was his fourth golden skill bead.

Since it was golden, he used it directly.

The skill beads burst and turned into a golden stream, flowing from the center of the eyebrows to the blood, bones, internal organs, skin, and flesh, covering it.

In just half an hour, Xia Ji had completely controlled the “Now Tathagata Zen” on the ninth level. This Zen method just complemented his shortcomings.

Fudo Ming Wang body focuses on defense,

The Nine Yang Heart Sutra values ​​internal force,

Eighteen Towns Prison Strength is strength.

But this Tathagata Zen is a powerful spiritual force, an unshakable intention.

What is meaning?

If there are two people in this world, holding the same weapon, having the same power, and practicing the same skills, and only one of the two can survive, and the other must die, then the one who decides the victory or defeat is the stronger one. , Who can beat the opponent on the spiritual level, whoever is the one alive.

Therefore, three thousand elites can surpass hundreds of thousands of mobs, and the brave master is not as good as the dog slaughter.

In short, it is your spirit, the spirit of Zen, the spirit of warrior.

In the dead night, Xia Ji stood up and pushed the door out. There is a small courtyard outside the Tibetan Scripture Pavilion. This is also a place for the prince under house arrest to walk and breathe. The father-in-law, who was watching over the pavilion 300 meters away, was naturally not there at this time. Now, the entire palace is in the middle of the snowy night, the lights in all palaces and halls have also been turned off, and there are some laughter from the palace of the emperor.

Xia Ji walked along the stone steps to the center of the courtyard step by step, and walked to a place where the wind and snow were thick. He didn’t put his hands together, but looked up at the sky, a mysterious mind suddenly dispersed.

The wind and snow all over him suddenly stopped, floating in the air half a foot of his body.

But the snow in the front stopped, but the snow in the back was still falling.

Soon, the heavy snow turned into a big white clock.

Not only that, in this big clock, even the air seemed to be still, and nothing moved.

Xuepiao is excited, but Xia Ji seems to have been separated from this world

When the wind and snow reached him, he fell into absolute stillness.

“The flowers are smiling, because seeing the flowers bloom, heaven and earth sympathize with my heart, and my heart also sympathizes with heaven and earth. If I don’t smile, the flowers won’t bloom, my heart won’t move, so the wind doesn’t move, the snow doesn’t move, and the grass doesn’t move. , The flower does not move

Is this the ninth realm of Tathagata now? “

Xia Ji muttered to herself, and took another step forward. With the flick of his fingers, the snow cover shattered, the accumulated snow sank the ground, and the young prince had already circled back to the attic.

In the evening two days later, the door of the attic was pushed open, Xia Xiaosu poked out her cute head, and Xia Ji had just finished chanting, and the two brothers and sisters glanced at each other, and the warm and relaxed atmosphere was immediately present.

The Nine Emperor Goddess walked in carrying the lunch box, and then just took the vegetables and put them on the table. The vegetables were still steaming. At the end, she took out two more jade-white porcelain bottles, which were the fairy brew from the foreign palace.

Xia Ji sat across from her and handed the wrapped cloth bag over, “I’m already optimistic about the “Now Tathagata”. You will send it back to Leiyin Temple tomorrow so that you won’t delay the three-day loan agreement.”

He rolled his eyes, saw two bottles of wine, smiled and said, “Do you still know how to add wine for me today?”

When the words were finished, the Nine Emperor Women’s tears began to flow, and then she sobbed and held a bottle of wine, “Today I will drink with my brother.”

Xia Ji took another bottle of wine.

Xia Xiaosu directly opened the wine cork without clinking glasses, so he directly raised his head and took a few big mouthfuls.

This wine is too strong. The girl who doesn’t drink much in her daily life suddenly drank so much, and she choked, her tears flowed further, but when she put down the bottle, there were already a few slices of secret beef in front of her. , This is the elder brother holding the food to her mouth.

As always, a gentle voice came: “Drinking alcohol and not eating vegetables will hurt your body.”

Xia Xiaosu ate all the beef with one bite, crying and chewing on the beef.

Xia Ji let out a muddy breath, and also pulled off the bottle cap and lifted the wine bottle.

Xia Xiaosu:? ? ?

She quickly understood, and raised the bottle.

The two touched.

Xia Xiaosu cried and said boldly: “Fuck.”

Xia Ji said, “Don’t do it, just take a sip.”

“Oh” The Nine Emperor Girls obediently took a sip, then put down the bottle, crying as she said: “Why don’t you comfort me? Although we can’t do anything, we can’t change anything, but you are the emperor brother. Don’t you comfort me?”

Xia Ji’s expression is very calm, like a Buddha sitting in a shrine, without sorrow or joy, but he is not a Buddha. He hides the chaos and mania that are close to the beginning of the world, but he is used to using the most gentle posture. He came to face his only relative, so he asked: “What’s the matter?”

Xia Xiaosu cried and said: “They forced me to marry the Turkic people, saying that the water and soil on the Turkic side is good. If I marry, it will allow the Turks and the Great Merchant Alliance to outflank the ghosts and dogs, and fight against Raksha. It is said that this can benefit the entire big business and make contributions to Jiangshan society.

But, I don’t want to go, I don’t want to, I heard that there are all savages on the Turkic side, and as soon as I go, I will never see my brother again, 嘤嘤嘤”

Xia Ji’s voice was still calm: “When will they let you go?”

Xia Xiaosu: “After three months, when the snow stops and spring begins, the Turks will send envoys to pick me up.”

“Three months”

Xia Ji thought for a while, and suddenly said, “I heard that Leiyin Temple still has a Past Burning Lantern Sutra. When you return the book tomorrow, you can borrow it for me. I can return it for just one day.”

Xia Xiaosu:? ? ?

She sighed. Is her brother really obsessed with Buddhist scriptures, so obsessed that she doesn’t even care about her sister?

She cried for most of the day, and Xia Ji stayed with her for most of the day. When she left, Xia Ji held her in her arms, patted her on the back, and said in the softest voice: “It will be fine.”
