In the peach blossom forest, Qin Hanzhen yawned a little boredly, turned his head and looked at Zhao Mo, and the two smiled at each other.

Although the peach blossoms in the forest have not faded, there is no good scenery left. The few ink marks mentioned by Master Jingxu are just ordinary poems and stone carvings, and there are no particularly outstanding lines. Although there is a late emperor among them

The calligraphy of the Imperial Concubine, but it was preserved when she was a little girl before entering the palace. The writing is still immature, and she does not have any special talent. Qin Hanzhen and others have just seen it. Zi Geer is gone.

Out of curiosity, she was playing around the peach blossom trees with Grandma Tiger in the forest. Niu's attention was attracted by Master Jingxu. Master Jingxu was indeed something extraordinary, and she quickly noticed that Niu's

Because of her hobbies, she mentioned to her some gossips about the female family members of officials who usually came to the nunnery.

Of course, these gossips are not just about the shortcomings of the east and west families. They are often talked about by Master Jingxu. They are also closely related to Buddhist principles, such as which family members worship Buddha devoutly and how much money they donate to the nunnery.

, painted the Guanyin Queen with gold paint, and got a good reward. She had no children for many years, but finally gave birth to a fat son; another example is that the female family members made a wish in front of the Buddha, and later the wish came true but they were delayed in fulfilling the wish. As a result,

No good results were obtained; another example is that the female relatives of a certain family were very pious. In order to pray for their chronically ill son, they came to worship Guanyin for three years. Every day, no matter the weather, Guanyin was compassionate and loved her son.

Her son got better, his ailments disappeared, and after studying hard for two years, he passed the examination, and so on. Niu was fascinated by what she heard, and pulled her to ask questions. Only Qin Han

Zhen and Zhao Mo found it boring, so they had to stand aside.

Zhao Mo whispered to Qin Hanzhen: "There seems to be tables and chairs in the monastery over there where the imperial concubine's calligraphy treasures are kept. If my cousin is tired of standing, why not go over and have a rest?"

Qin Hanzhen shook his head: "Let's wait. Grandma is getting excited after hearing this. She will definitely follow me as soon as I leave."

Zhao Mo sighed: "Actually, it's not impossible for us to sit in other quiet rooms."

He and Qin Hanzhen looked at each other and smiled in unison. Qin Hanzhen looked back at the direction he had just come from, hesitated for a moment, but still did not go to the place where he could see his grandfather Qin Bai's quiet room. Qin Bai asked them to go

When she came to the peach blossom forest but stayed in the quiet room waiting, she knew better. At this time, her grandfather must be meeting his "old friend".

I'm afraid Grandma Niu also knows it well, right?

I just don’t know who the old friend is? Why is Qin Bai so mysterious when he meets him?

In the quiet room, Qin Bai and the two female nuns sat across from each other. Thinking that they had not seen each other for more than thirty years, and now they were reunited after a long separation, things had changed. The eyes of the three of them were wet, and they cried silently to each other.

Qin Bai quickly wiped away his tears and smiled again: "How have you been doing after so many years? It was only after I returned to the capital that I found out that you had entered Nianhui Temple. I wanted to ask my eldest brother for more news about you.

, but the eldest brother doesn’t want to mention it more.”

One of the female nuns wiped away her tears and replied: "Master Hou has little contact with us. The third master just asked him, what can he know?" After a pause, he smiled bitterly, "I forgot, I should

You should call me Third Master instead."

"It's okay to call them by the old name. It sounds more comfortable." Qin Bai smiled, "Several sisters have become monks now, so they must have changed their names, but I don't know how to call them."

The nun said: "My current dharma name is Huineng, the dharma name of Bai Zhi is Hui Ding, in addition, the dharma name of Yujin is Huihe, and the dharma name of Du Heng is Huixin. If the third master remembers it, please remember it. There is no harm in calling us by our old names."

.Although we have become monks, we have become monks for the sake of the Queen. In addition to chanting sutras and praying for the Emperor, the Queen and the Crown Prince every day, other things are still the same as before. Although we say we are monks, in fact, we are still monks.

We are still from the palace. Even the emperor said that there is nothing wrong with us continuing to use our previous names. If the queen has a soul in heaven, she comes back to see us occasionally and hears our old names and still remembers which one is which. No.

You won't recognize who we are. When the emperor came to see us, he still called me Gansong."

Qin Bai smiled: "Then I will continue to call you by your old names. It is indeed more accustomed to you." He paused, "Are there only four sisters left in Nianhui'an now?"

Bai Zhi choked and said: "The eight palace people around the empress, except for two who died during the confinement last year, there is also a Ganan who stayed in the palace to take care of His Highness the Crown Prince, and the other five have all become monks in the nunnery. Daukou was ill for the past year.

He died, and now there are only four of us left. Du Heng was feeling a little bad today, and Yu Jin had to stay at the nunnery, so only Sister Gan Song and I came to see the Third Master. When I saw the Third Master just now, I almost didn’t recognize him.

It has been more than thirty years since I came out... The third master is also old now..."

Qin Bai felt very sad when he heard this, and asked again: "I have long heard that Sister Ganan stayed in the East Palace to take care of His Highness the Crown Prince, and she died suddenly last year, but I don't know why. My eldest brother kept secret about this, which is really puzzling.

I heard that he also drove Sister Ganan’s family out of the Hou Mansion, but I don’t know what’s going on now.”

Bai Zhi paused, gritted her teeth and said, "This is her own fault, and she deserves this result!"

Qin Bai couldn't help being surprised. Among the maids around Queen Qin, Bai Zhi was the youngest. She and Jianan had always been very close, almost as close as sisters. Although more than thirty years had passed, she heard Bai Zhi say this about Jianan.

, Qin Bai still can't help but wonder: What on earth did Ganan do?

Gan Song said: "I specially invited the Third Master here today to tell you clearly about Ganan. Do you still remember? You returned to the capital thirty years ago and met Ganan at that time?"

How could he not remember? When Qin Bai returned to the capital that year, except for his eldest brother Qin Song, he only met Ganan. Ganan was ordered by Empress Qin to secretly come to deliver a message to him. Not long after meeting Ganan

, he decided to leave the capital and settle down in the northwest.

Because that is...the wish of his dear sister, Empress Qin.

Gan Song looked at the expression on Qin Bai's face and sighed quietly: "Third Master, it seems that you really believed it. You believed what Ganan said back then. It was really the Queen's decree. That was Ganan coaxing you.

Woolen cloth!"

Qin Bai was shocked and stared at her: "What did you say?!"

Bai Zhi said with tears: "What Gan Song said is true. At that time, we didn't know that the third master had returned to the capital, and neither did the Queen. Her condition was getting worse day by day, and the two things that worried her most were:

The Marquis is getting married, and another thing is that she doesn’t know when the third master will be able to return to Beijing. She is afraid that she won’t be able to survive, and will not be able to see the Marquis get married again, and will not be able to see you for the last time. She has repeatedly asked the Marquis if it is true.

I don’t know where you are. The Marquis always said that you were misled by your beauty, missed the village girl, and refused to return to the capital to reunite with your family. The Empress didn’t believe a word of it. It was just the way the Marquis swore that the Empress would not be in the Emperor’s presence.

To undermine him in front of him, we could only ask him privately. The Marquis refused to tell the truth, and no matter how anxious the Queen was, she had no choice but to wait for the third master to return to the capital by himself. Unfortunately, when the Marquis' wedding was completed, the Empress could no longer hold on.

Before she died, she told Ganan that she would go to the Marquis Mansion to ask the Marquis again. If there is an answer, she must tell it before her death, so that she can leave with peace of mind..."

When Bai Zhi said this, she couldn't bear it anymore and lowered her head to wipe her tears.

Gan Song then continued: "Ganan must have met the Third Master at that time, right? The Queen did leave her last words to the Third Master, but they must not be what she told you."

Qin Bai said: "I did meet her outside the Hou Mansion. But how do you know that what she said was not the Queen's true last words?"

Gan Song said: "Because when the Queen gave her orders, we were all standing by. The Queen asked Ganan to ask the Marquis. She also said that she might not be able to wait for the Third Master to go back. If we see the Third Master in the future,

, sent a few words to the third master for her, and said - it is my sister who has caused you trouble, and my brother has also treated you badly. You have been wronged, and my sister knows it in her heart. My sister is useless and cannot make decisions for you. But if my brother

If you continue to bully you like this, regardless of any brotherly feelings, you don't have to worry about your sister all the time. As long as you can leave a breath for our Qin family, everything else is up to you. You will be the head of the Qin family in the future.

, take good care of yourself, follow the emperor, do good things, and live a good life."

After Qin Bai finished listening, he was silent for a long time, but his eye circles gradually turned red: "Sister..."

Unexpectedly, the real last words left by my sister, Empress Qin, were like this...

He raised his head and looked at Gan Song and Bai Zhi: "What Ganan told me is completely different from what you said. She told me that the Queen knew she was sorry for me, but the eldest brother and her mother are the same brother and sister.

.If in the past, my eldest brother bullied me, she should have made the decision for me. But at that time, my eldest brother made a mistake and offended the Holy One, and then let the Holy One know that he had concealed my whereabouts, which made my sister die with regrets, and I am afraid she will become even more angry.

.The eldest brother has lost the holy family, what should he do in the future? He finally got married again, and he will be able to continue the Qin family's incense and flourish. The queen can't let him go when she thinks of her biological mother who died early.

No matter. Therefore...even if she knows she is sorry for me, she still hopes that I can leave the capital and pretend that I have never gone back. As long as I am not here, the only Qin family member left in the Chengenhou Mansion in the capital will be the eldest brother. No matter how angry the Holy Emperor is,

He will also be more tolerant to him. As for me... Since I have a good marriage in the northwest, and I will have no worries about food and clothing in the future, it is okay to stay in the northwest and live a quiet life. After twenty or thirty years, things have changed.

My eldest brother has also established a firm foothold in the court, so it will be fine for me to return to the capital."

After saying these words, Qin Bai could no longer hold back the grief and anger in his heart: "At that time, I just felt like five thunders struck my head, and my heart was extremely sad! But... what my sister said makes sense. She and I are not from the same mother, and we are indeed farther apart than my eldest brother.

Level 1. If it were normal, it would be fine, but at that time my eldest brother was in a bad situation, and it was possible for my sister to abandon me for the sake of his future. I am just sad that the love between sister and brother for many years is not worth the blood relationship between my sister and my eldest brother.

Dear, since I was unable to see my sister for the last time due to my own negligence and fault, causing her to die with regrets, I agree to my sister’s request and regard it as atonement for my mistakes..." He wiped his face.

, "But...since this is not my sister's true wish, but Ganan's lie, why did she do this?!"
