The area around Ganlu Temple has gradually become familiar. When I have to pick up firewood every day, I have gradually gone further. WWW.tsxsw.COM

Sometimes Jingbai frowned and sent me away, "Don't always walk lazy and lazy, is it the same as before? Go away and pick up firewood."

So I gradually got involved in the back mountain of Lingyun Peak or Ganlu Peak.

I can't go to Piaomiao Peak in Qingliangtai Villa where Xuanqing lives. It's not for any other reason. Sometimes when I climb up and look into the distance, I feel a little strange peace when I see the white walls and high tiles of Qingliangtai from afar. I just feel that it's good to look from afar. If I really want to get close, I feel a little scared in my heart.

That day, when I arrived at the back mountain of Ganlu Peak, there were many trees and narrow jungles, and the fragrance of wild flowers embellished the green grass, I was greedy for a moment, so I walked behind the deep forest that I had never been to before. But I saw the green flowers on the ground, shaded like a cover, covering the scorching sun and flowing like fire. The thick shade like green water poured down, and I heard the birds singing and the slightest twilight, and the heat in the surrounding area disappeared quietly and lightly. The more I went behind the mountain, the more clear springs and streams splashed, the more pure and cool breath came to my face, and the limbs and bones all over my body and every pore, all of them were uncomfortable.

Walking into the forest, deep in the wind, a pebbles intestine was winding, which seemed to lead people into the end. I saw a few old houses surrounded by a small courtyard. The original color of the yellow walls and black tiles had been eroded by the mountain wind and lost their old appearance. Only the old aura was left, melted into the deep green, and it seemed lifeless, and there was no highlight at all.

As I got closer, I saw a small plaque on the door, and most of the golden paint had fallen off. In addition, the sky was dark and I could tell after a long time that I could see clearly that it was the three big words "Anqiguan".

I was curious for a moment, and felt thirsty in my mouth. I saw the gray wooden door half-closed, thinking that someone was there. So I reached out and pushed it, and the door creaked and opened.

It is a small courtyard, a regular main hall, behind the main hall is a courtyard, and behind the courtyard there are three small Zen rooms, all of which are very clean and neat. What is commendable is that there are simple springs and rocks beside the green grass, which makes you feel interesting. There are small sycamore trees around the courtyard, which are densely planted, very quiet.

The forest is quiet and the cool breeze is coming temporarily, which makes people feel quiet and cool, and they don’t feel so thirsty in their mouths.

A gentle and quiet voice came quietly, saying, "Are you looking for someone?"

When I heard the sound, I saw a woman in Taoist nun's costume standing in the midst of the twilight, holding a kettle, looking at me.

The light was reversed, and I couldn't see her appearance clearly, but I felt that her voice was very gentle and moving. I knew it was very rude to come in quietly like this. I hurriedly bowed and smiled apologetically: "I'm thirsty, so I took the liberty to come in and ask for a sip of water."

She smiled and waved to me, "The water there is raw water in the well, and it cannot be eaten raw. Come here with me, I will give you water." I thanked me quickly before approaching her.

When I got closer, I saw that this Taoist nun was only about forty years old. She was not very beautiful, but her eyebrows were beautiful and quiet, but she looked familiar. There was no gentleness and grace between her eyebrows and eyes, just like the most sentimental Song poems written. At this time, the dusk was getting darker, and the light and shadows of the red river were as bright as the sun. Her sudden appearance was like the bright moon in the sky, scattering countless bright lights, and like the first new snow blooming under the gray sky in winter, white and crystal clear, and fresh in character.

For a moment, I felt my eyes were confused and my mouth was dry. The dryness was not caused by the thirst just now, but that my mind was not in my mind, and it fell on her, and I couldn't move it away at all.

She smiled and brought me a glass of water, and said with a smile: "Drink it, the tea that has just been cool, it's just warm and delicious."

I was stunned for a moment and didn't know how to answer. She urged her gentle words, and then she woke up and said embarrassedly: "I'm rude."

She shook her head and did not blame her. I hurriedly took the water to drink, and vaguely blamed myself. I was not an impatient man. I was used to seeing all kinds of beautiful women in the palace, even as beautiful as Concubine Hua. She was not a surprisingly beautiful beauty, but it made people involuntarily intoxicated.

I was secretly amazed and took a sip of water and said, "I don't know what to call it?"

She smiled gently, "Just tell me to jing."

Chongjing? I was in a daze, and it seemed that I had heard of this name somewhere. What made me even more confused is that Ganlu Temple was originally a Buddhist temple and lived in a group of nuns. How could there be such an unknown Taoist temple in the mountains near Ganlu Temple?

I thought about it carefully, but I couldn't remember it after all. However, I knew deeply that I must have heard of this name.

As she was thinking carefully, she asked me, "Are you the sister-in-law in Ganlu Temple in Qiantou?" I nodded. She asked again, "Are you new here? Why are you still outside so late?"

I whispered, "Yes. It's just that because the firewood I picked up is not enough, I stayed outside. I'm going back soon."

She smiled slightly, with a look of compassion in her eyes, "It's hard for you, it's so hard."

I smiled apologetically and didn't want others to pity me. Seeing that she was the only one, I asked, "Do you live alone?"

She looked around the huge Taoist temple and smiled and said, "I live with a maid."

I was secretly surprised. It was too deserted. But I couldn't ask her why she became a monk here, so she had to bow her head and drink water silently.

As he was talking, he heard the wooden door ringing again, and a brisk voice said, "Oh, is there a stranger here?"

I looked back and bowed, but I was a maid-like person. I thought I was the maid who lived with her as Jing said, so I said, "Disturbate."

She was about the same age as a Taoist nun. She put down what she had in her hand and smiled at me with a hearty smile: "The concubine doesn't feel disturbed, so how could I feel disturbed?"

I was stunned, and my mind shone like lightning. The gentle Taoist nun in front of me called her "demise", and this place was similar to the cool platform where Xuanqing lived. Isn't her quiet and gentle temperament exactly the same as Xuanqing? How could her noble demeanor be owned by ordinary Taoist nuns?

The Taoist nun in front of her was Xuanqing's biological mother. She was famous in Jinghua and was still deeply circulated among countless palace people. She is now the Concubine Shu Gui, the Concubine Shu Gui, who is famous in Jinghua.

Chong Jing, the one who Xuan Ling originally appointed Shu Gui Concubine was "Cheng Jing Yuan Master, Jin Ting Master".

No one had ever thought that Concubine Shu, who had been favored by three thousand people, had left the pink and dark colors of the six palaces, would live in this deserted Taoist temple.

I was surprised for a moment and couldn't speak in a daze. After a moment, I spoke: "Concubine Shugui?"

Her beautiful eyebrows frowned slightly and looked at me in confusion, "Do you know my name?"

When she said this, she even confirmed my speculation.

In the legends of the crowd, in my imagination, Concubine Shu, who was favored by the late emperor and was covered with three thousand rains and dews, must be an extremely beautiful woman with a glorious and brilliant beauty, but she didn't expect that she was so gentle and graceful, and she was as light as a chrysanthemum. She did not have the sharp and shrewd brilliance of a woman who had lived in the palace for decades.

I nodded and performed the etiquette as if it were rituals, "Yes. Now it's time to call you Master Chong Jingyuan and Master Jinting."

This name was personally granted by the emperor and is not known to everyone in the world. I blurted out that she had already understood it. She looked at me for a long time and said, "Did you come from the palace?"

I was slightly embarrassed and immediately said, "The Concubine said it well."

She stood quietly in front of me and smiled faintly at me. Her smile shone in the dark moment, like the faint glow of pearls flowing, as if the mist was covered by mist. At this time, the sky had already darkened completely, and the stars were faintly shining. Concubine Shu Gui's Taoist robe was slowly rolled up by the mountain wind, like pear blossoms blooming in snow, and her figure was like a fairy standing under the moonlight on the jade platform.

I was almost shocked and couldn't open my eyes. She was not very beautiful, but no one could reach the touch of her at all. I was conceited since I was a child and my appearance was not inferior to ordinary people, but in front of her, I felt ashamed of myself.

Such a graceful and lively temperament is like a jade tree and a jade bud, and is soaked in the spring breeze and water. It is something that people in the palace have never changed. And she has been in the deep palace for decades and her temperament has not changed. No wonder the late emperor loved her so much that he could hardly see the figure of the woman next to her. No wonder the mother of Qishan King once privately criticized her for "fox charming" her. It turned out that it was not fox charming, but a kind of gentleness that even women were attracted to be attracted and attracted.

She looked at me and smiled, "Qing'er once told me that there was a concubine named Guan living in Ganlu Temple and practicing according to the orders. She was talking about you."

I was ashamed for a moment and said lightly: "The noble concubine is the old name. Please ask the concubine to call me the Dharma name "Mochou"."

"Mochou?" She pondered slightly and said with a smile: "What is your family surname?"

I replied, "Originally my surname is Zhen."

She looked at my long loose hair and smiled, "So, I'll call you 'Miss Zhen'."

I said, "The Tombie is so polite."

Concubine Shu Gui smiled gently and said, "I'm sorry that I'm just now. Mrs. Zhen's demeanor is naturally not something that the sisters in the temple don't have. I didn't recognize it for a while. I'm really negligent." As she said that, she asked me to sit down and pointed to the maid just now and smiled, "That's my personal maid named Jiyun." So she wanted Jiyun to come to see her.

I hurriedly said: "The one who serves the concubine is naturally the aunt. I am a commoner. How can I ask my aunt to greet me?"

The concubine hurriedly grabbed me and said, "Yes. We are not in the palace, so why should we keep the etiquette in the palace? I think you are my junior and she is my maid, so it is appropriate to meet you."

I heard the concubine say so amiable, and it was hard to refuse, so I saw each other. Jiyun was very cheerful and straightforward, and laughed at me, "I was shocked when I heard the concubine say that the concubine was the sister-in-law in Ganlu Temple. I was still wondering how could my sister-in-law look so beautiful? It must be the concubine who lies to coax me."

I heard what she said without restraint and couldn't help but go to see the concubine. Sure enough, Concubine Shu Gui smiled and said, "She grew up with me since she was a child, and she is like this. Don't be surprised by her madam."

I smiled and said, "Of course not. I really like to speak like this. It's so tired that people can't listen."

The cumulus clouds got closer to me, and I was slightly surprised when I raised my eyes. Her eyes were the same as those of Concubine Shu Gui, and they were as gentle as amber. I was surprised and said, "Your eyes..."

Concubine Shu Gui smiled and said, "Juyun is like me, and they are all slanderers, so our eyes are different from those of you Han people."

The Far Yiyuan was a small tribe far south of Nanzhao. It was originally a clan and paid tribute to Nanzhao every year. In the third year of Longqing, the Fuyuan General of the late emperor pacified Nanzhao and also slapped the Far Yi who was dependent on Nanzhao. All the clans of Cangnan surrendered to Dazhou, and from then on, they paid tribute to Dazhou and became a subordinate of Dazhou.

Historical books say that Concubine Shu is the daughter of governor Pingzhang Ruan Yannian, and is also considered to be from a scholarly family. Why is he a slaughter? Could Concubine Shu's mother a slaughter girl?

When Jiyun saw me thinking, he laughed and said, "Madam Zhen, I know what you are thinking. You must be wondering why our concubines are disguised as a barbarian, right?"

I was embarrassed by her guessing, and I felt a little embarrassed and couldn't hide it. So I said: "This is not written in the history of Zhou. It seems that the concubine is the daughter of the governor, Lord Ping Zhang and Ruan..."

Concubine Shu Gui said frankly: "In the past, I had to be very secretive in the palace, but now I'm not bad. Lord Ruan is my adoptive father. When the late emperor wanted me to enter the palace, I asked me to take care of Lord Ruan. My daughter's family is indeed the family of Huayi, and both of her parents are native Huayi people." She was slightly fascinated, "The mountains and rivers of Huayi are my hometown."

I heard her honesty and sincere words without any cover up. I felt moved and naturally felt close to her.

Concubine Shu Gui smiled and said, "I have told you so much, but my wife may not like to listen. She is so trivial when she gets old." Her eyes were quite loving, "I naturally feel kind when I see her. I don't want to be weird."

I hurriedly said, "How could it be that it is my honor to have the care of the concubine."

Concubine Shu Gui smiled and said, "I always admired Qing'er once or twice when she mentioned his wife. I just listened to it at that time. Now I see people as beautiful as the fairies on the snowy mountain of Ano."

Jiyun also laughed, "Yes, the old people in our former clan always said that the goddess on Arnold's snow mountain is the best."

I hurriedly said, "If the Concubine praises me like this, I will be ashamed. Zhen Huan has long admired the Concubine's charm for a long time."

The concubine turned her head slightly and smiled and said, "Zhen Huan? Is it your name?"

I nodded and smiled: "It was my former name."

The concubine nodded and smiled at Jiyun, saying, "I always say that the name of the Han daughter is the best. Zhen Huan, unlike when we were placing off the barbarians, the names were chosen by our parents at will."

Jiyun rushed to the tea and said with a smile: "It's true that the concubine is. When the wife comes, she doesn't even rush to the tea. She asks her to talk to you with her mouth."

Concubine Shu Gui couldn't hold her back and glanced at her and said, "Yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes. But you didn't listen, and didn't do anything, and you neglect the guests like this."

I saw them talking and laughing intimately, without any distinction between superiority and inferiority, and I felt very friendly and easy-going, and said, "I just broke in with thirst. The concubine not only did not blame me, but also poured water for me personally. It was really my fault."

Jiyun handed me a cup of tea to Concubine Shu Gui and I, and said with a smile: "I used to be the first to be the slap in the air, but the name of the concubine was Yiguang, so I was Ayun. The name Jiyun was changed later."

I thought, "Forgive me for taking the liberty. In the past, I seemed to hear that the concubine's name was..." I thought hard, but I couldn't remember it for a moment of anxiety.

Concubine Shu Gui said, "It's Yanran, Ruan Yanran." She smiled, "My name was Yiguang. Yanran changed her name only when she was in the Zhou Dynasty, and it was also the name given to me by the late emperor himself."

I saw that she was straightforward and frank, and said something, but she didn't even hide her name. She was even more happy and was willing to talk to her. She came up with a whim and said, "My chance and the concubine are indeed deeper than others. I don't talk about it today. I have a 'Sauvignon Blanc' piano, which is also the thing the concubine used to use before."

Concubine Shu Gui said "Oh", and her eyes suddenly became bright, like a candle burned with flames, and said in surprise: "It's true?"

I nodded and said, "When I left the palace, I only brought a handful of 'Sauvignon Chang', and now I will put it in Ganlu Temple."

Concubine Shu Gui sighed, "When I left the palace that day, I left 'Chang Xiangshou' and 'Shoulder' in the palace together, just for the late emperor to die early, it was useless for me to keep these two things. I never thought that I had entered my wife's hands. I guess she was a person who was good at music and music." She looked at me firmly and said, "I have been separated from these two things for more than ten years. If my wife agreed, can she take them and let me take a look."

I apologized: "I should have given it to the concubine, but I accidentally broke the strings when I played it a few months ago..."

I lowered my head, thinking that "Su Xiangsi" was the favorite thing of Concubine Shu Gui, and she must be blamed by her. However, Concubine Shu Gui just smiled brightly and said with a kind look: "Where is the person who plays the piano constantly? If the lady rests at ease, it is better to show it to me. I am willing to try my best."

I was overjoyed and hurriedly stood up and said, "This is the best. The concubine is the old master of "Suka Chang" and must know how to practice it."

The concubine pursed her lips and said, "Don't worry, thank me for it first. The method of making strings of 'Sauvignon Chang' is different from other pianos. If you really want to practice it, it will not be possible in less than three or five months. If you don't take it, you have to ask Qing'er to go back to the palace with a ponytail. Ice and snow silk and golden silk come back and forth. I am afraid these things are not easily obtained."
