Self-cultivation of Male Supporting Role

Cheng Lixue picked up Shi Yan with one hand, ignoring Shi Yan's short legs struggling in the air, and wiped off the tea stains on Shi Yan's face with his sleeves, only then put the person back.

Cheng Lixue didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "Ayan, those masters who cheated people's money down the mountain, opened their mouths to talk to you. Did you secretly follow your cousin down the mountain to learn something that shouldn't be learned?"

Shi Yan shook his head: "I'm serious, uncle, I think you have a relationship with my teacher in this life. If you don't recognize it now, you will be a member of my teacher sooner or later. It is futile to advise you not to struggle."

Cheng Lixue waved his hands again and again: "I just plan to stay here for a while, but I don't really want to become a monk!"

After saying that, he warned Shi Yan, "You can play, but don't be fooled by this **** and think about becoming a monk! You are the only one left in the old Feng family. If you don't want to become a monk. Now, in the future, when my uncle goes underground, what face is there to see your parents!"

Seeing that his nephew didn't ask about what happened in the back mountain that day, Cheng Lixue, as an uncle, breathed a sigh of relief. On the one hand, Ling felt that this kind of thing could not be explained clearly to children, so it was best not to ask.

Shi Yan buried his head in eating, ignoring the last struggle of the ignorant.

He didn't tell a lie, he really saw that this uncle's face had changed a lot recently. When Shi Yan first woke up, he didn't look at it, but now he feels more and more that this uncle should be their apprentice. People, God's will is so, it is useless to struggle.

After the meal, Shi Yan shoved the Taoist scriptures into his uncle's hands firmly: "If you are idle, you are idle, why don't you come and have a look with me!"

Uncle looked at him twice and began to cry out that he had a headache.

Shi Yan was speechless: "It doesn't look like it at all. Forget it, then tell me, are you here to hide from those who come to your house to help you find matchmaking? I heard that you are very popular in Beijing recently. My young lady wants to marry you and be my aunt!"

Cheng Lixue leaned on the door frame without any image, blew a rogue whistle at Shi Yan, spread his hands and said, "There's a reason for this! Uncle finally got rid of the drag and feels relaxed. I want to relax for a few more days. Catch it back and pack it and give it to a woman in exchange for benefits!"

When Shi Yan heard this, he didn't have any feelings for the second princess at all, and when he told him about such a marriage to his family, he felt a lot of resentment.

Bored, he changed to a more rogue posture and stood: "You are still young, you don't understand what I told you, and you just dare to tell you that if you don't understand everything, if you understand everything, you really can't say it. Export."

Shi Yan said: "Then you will know the truth in the future, but don't cry.

Shi Yan sat on the threshold, resting his chin on his hands, looking up at the sky, and said quietly: "Cousin Changqing hasn't come to see me for a long time, and the roast chicken he promised me was only delivered by the servants at home, I don't know. What is he doing recently? The servants are not caring at all.

He sneaked the roast chicken into me, turned around and left, as if there were wolves behind him. It's like Cousin Changqing, who will carefully tear up the roast chicken and feed it to me. "

Cheng Lixue's hooligan posture was so exhausted that she sat down next to Shi Yan, one big and one small also holding their cheeks with their hands, looking at the sky in the distance.

Tranquil, distant, and vulgar.

Cheng Lixue suddenly had the desire to talk: "Changqing's grandfather has arranged a marriage for him. She is the young lady of Zhou Chengli Zhou's family in the Imperial College. She was born into a noble family. I heard that she is a dignified and generous person. A good hand, it is also made to be a grandmother to the royal family.

After all, the Cheng family is a family of military generals. The war has begun to subside in the past few years. In the future, military generals will only have more and more useless places. If you want the family to develop for a long time, it is an inevitable trend to transfer texts.

Guozijian sacrifice wine is a very good choice. In the past, my uncle thought that your cousin understood, but now it seems that he has been protected so well all these years that he is so naive.

Your Cousin Changqing has been very close to the girl from the Fifth Princess’ family recently. He doesn’t want to get married. He makes a lot of noise at home. Right now, he is fighting with his grandfather. His uncle will only get splint when he stays at home. Come out and get clean. "

Shi Yan said quietly: "I remember that the fifth princess' concubine also seems to be surnamed Zhou, is it Zhou Chengde? What does it have to do with Zhou Chengli?"

Cheng Lixue was surprised for a moment, and rubbed the top of Shi Yan's soft and furry head: "Our family Yan has a good memory and will follow your mother. Zhou Chengli, the sacrificial wine of the Imperial College, is the cousin of Zhou Chengde, the fifth concubine."

Shi Yan sighed: "So the candidate for your daughter-in-law, and the candidate for your cousin, are cousins."

Cheng Lixue coughed awkwardly: "It's true."

Shi Yan: "Hey, injustice."

Cheng Lixue also thought it was an injustice, but he didn't expect that there would be only more injustices, not the most injustices.

What he didn't tell Shi Yan was that he came here to stay for a while because he wanted to monitor the abbot Mingguang, and it was best to catch the other's pigtails.

Such a poor abbot, even if he is Shi Yan's uncle, he is not at ease to give Shi Yan to the other party to take care of him.

Therefore, the trail that was discovered by Shi Yan before has become a place he frequents. For the sake of secrecy, Cheng Lixue, who had been a secret agent in the army, took good care of the trail that was already very tightly hidden, and then It was rearranged to ensure that no one could find out except the parties involved.

He did these things without avoiding Shi Yan. Sometimes when Shi Yan didn't meditate and practice, he would take his nephew with him.

There is a little secret in common between the two, and their relationship has grown by leaps and bounds.

Thanks to Mingguang, a great monk who had been in poor health since he was a child, and who ate fast and chanted Buddha, although he had a good mouth, he could say that he had a splitting headache, but his body and bones were ordinary, not to mention that he found that a master like Cheng Lixue existed.

So after Shi Yan finished meditating that day, he was carried by his uncle to the big tree in Abbot Mingguang's courtyard to relax.

I originally thought that I would still have to listen to Mingguang reading the scriptures for two hours as usual, but who would have guessed that there was another woman in the yard at a glance today.

As the abbot of Wanfo Temple, Mingguang can come to his yard and be personally received by him. His status is either rich or expensive, and he cannot afford to offend anyone, or he does not want to offend easily.

Shi Yan glanced at his uncle: who?

Cheng Lixue wrote the word "five" in Shi Yan's palm, which Shi Yan understood: Fifth Princess.

The mother of the heroine Zhou Yulong.

The two stretched their ears and listened carefully to the conversation of the two below.

The fifth princess' voice was full of ease: "Mingguang, you and I are considered dew couples. For so many years, I have never said anything about what happened back then. You are not willing to agree to this request today?"

Shi Yan: Come, come!

Yu Guang glanced at his uncle, and sure enough, the shock in the other's eyes couldn't deceive anyone.

The abbot said: "His Royal Highness, the poor monk Yijie is a monk. He has never interfered in the affairs of the court, and he has no ability to intervene. Please be wise!"

Speaking of this, the abbot's tone suddenly became stern: "His Royal Highness, I am a monk, not a fool. What happened back then was purely because you were plotted against and implicated in the poor monk.

The poor monk can be seduced by you because his heart is not firm towards my Buddha. For many years, the poor monk has repented to my Buddha day and night. The poor monk is sorry for my Buddha, but I have never been ashamed of you, so don’t be arrogant here! "

The voice of the fifth princess is still sweet: "Really? If you are so open-hearted as you said, why do you want to give Liu Nianjiao a fertile fief? Huh? I just want you to help me this time, it's too much. Is it? If I hadn't had a suitable candidate on hand, I wouldn't have disturbed the Master's purity."

Liu Nianjiao is the name of the second princess.

Although the abbot was surprised that the fifth princess could know about the second princess and him, his attitude was still firm: "The poor monk does not only represent me, but also represents the entire Wanfu Temple, and even the position of most of the Buddhist temples in the world. If you don’t participate in political struggles, please be smart!”

The fifth princess sighed faintly, poked her finger on the abbot's chest, and said, "If I say, Yulong's child is my child and yours? Are you still unwilling to help me?

I just want our children to be crown princesses, just to be high-ranking people, what's wrong with this? I am now the princess, the emperor's sister, looking at the scenery on my face, but in Yu Long's hands?

There are five biological children of the concubine alone, not counting the cousins ​​of the Zhou family, and I only have one Yulong! If I am gone in the future, who will think about our children?

I know what you can say in the palace, just a word, our child can become a crown princess, and even if I die in the future, I can close my eyes safely, isn't it good? "

Obviously, the abbot and Cheng Lixue were also greatly frightened.

The abbot stared at the face of the Fifth Princess: "Your Highness is joking."

The fifth princess was already prepared, and took out a neatly folded piece of paper from her sleeve: "This is Yu Long's birthday. Do you think I would make a joke of this kind of thing?"

Seeing this, Cheng Lixue understood the Fifth Princess' plan, sneered in her heart, and left with Shi Yan silently.

Back in the yard, Shi Yan asked curiously, "Uncle, are you not shocked at all?"

Cheng Lixue rubbed Shi Yan's hairy little head: "It's easy for a child to think too much and not grow taller!"

Shi Yan: "…"

Cheng Lixue told Shi Yan amusingly: "The birth date is fine, but the daughter of the Fifth Princess is definitely not Mingguang's child. He was fooled."

Shi Yan was puzzled: "How did you find out, uncle?"

"Well, this matter is also a secret, not suitable for your children's family to listen to."

Shi Yan only looked at his uncle with the expression of "telling half of the story and wetting the bed at night".

Cheng Lixue was cutely abandoned by her nephew: "It just so happened that a friend of my uncle's acquaintance in the Taiyuan Hospital once drunkenly told me in private that it was the fifth princess who was pregnant and killed the love of the five concubines by herself. Concubine, the concubine's belly child at that time had already formed, and it came out alive.

The mother and son both died. The fifth princess was too frightened when she saw that scene and gave birth prematurely.

Because it was a scandal of the Zhou family, they were tightly covered by their family, and outsiders didn't know the inside story. They always thought that the fifth princess was born at full term. It just happened to rely on Mingguang.

Even if Mingguang asks people to inquire, he will not be able to find out the truth. This is a loss for him! "

Cheng Lixue sighed: "I really underestimated Feng Zixu, he is no longer the Feng Zixu in my impression, and I don't know if the abbot Yuehai knew that Feng Zixu did these things, whether the coffin was overwhelmed. No longer."

Shi Yan had no choice but to remind his uncle: "The previous abbot didn't have a coffin board. After his cremation, there were three relics, which are still enshrined in the Bodhidharma Institute!"

Shi Yan felt that there was something he didn't quite understand: "Why do these princesses want to ask the abbot for help?"

Cheng Lixue's eyes were distant, and she just pretended that she didn't understand what her nephew was saying, she only talked about the fifth princess, and never mentioned the second princess: "It is also reasonable for the fifth princess to ask Mingguang for help, and this is about Mingguang's teacher. door.

Master Mingguang was the last abbot of Yuehai. The abbot had been deceased for more than ten years, and he was also a guest at the high gate of the capital in his early years.

Mingguang also has a master who is the senior brother of Abbot Yuehai, Abbot Yueshan. Although this abbot has been in retreat for several years, his influence has not decreased but increased.

The current emperor is a very strong believer in Buddhism, and it is rumored that Yueshan contributed a lot in the process of ascending the throne today. Yueshan is also a smart person, and he was so quick to get away from the royal political struggle, which made the emperor even more obsessed with him.

Today Mingguang said that the reason why Wanfo Temple did not participate in the political struggle was that the abbot of Yueshan decided that year.

This is not the end of it. All the abbots and monks these days will have one or two hands to cure diseases and save people. The medical skills of this abbot of Yueshan are particularly good. He once saved the life of the current queen mother.

Mingguang has such a relationship, and indeed has the ability to send the daughter of the Fifth Princess to the position of the Crown Princess.

It's time to let him fall. After so many years of smooth sailing, I'm afraid I've forgotten who I am, and I have done so many unfortunate things in the holy place of Buddhism. There is no need for my uncle to take action, and some people will take care of him. "

Shi Yan: "Hey, Cousin Changqing will be miserable. He still wants to fly with the fifth princess' daughter. It's really annoying, why don't you all practice Taoism with me? How happy you are! Become an immortal, all the troubles of the mortal world are like passing clouds."

Cheng Lixue was teased by his nephew and laughed: "Uncle is still willing to be a layman, but if your cousin wants to live or die for a woman, regardless of the interests of the family who raised him since childhood, not to mention uncle, it is his grandfather, and he has a bad temper. Come up, you can also kick him over!

At that time, I am afraid that your small yard will have another regular visitor! "

In fact, Shi Yan felt that in addition to cultivating, using these gossips to adjust his life is very beneficial to his physical and mental health. Except for the unhappy parties involved in the incident, Shi Yan was very happy to see it.

Cousin Cheng Changqing didn't get kicked over by his grandfather, so he came to Shi Yan first.

When the father and son met, the father's face was ruddy, and he felt a little more distant, and it was obvious that he lived a very comfortable life.

The son's face was haggard, his eyes were red and bloodshot, his clothes were wrinkled, and his body was shaking. He didn't know which building he was fighting in for seven days and seven nights, and was hollowed out by the sister inside.

As soon as Cheng Changqing saw his father, he choked up and rushed to his father's side, and said aggrieved: "Father, me, I am too difficult!"

Shi Yan and Cheng Lixue were at a loss.

It took a long time for the two of them to roughly understand what he wanted to express in Cheng Changqing's narration.

Cheng Lixue heard the blue veins jumping on the forehead, and wished to beat up the unconscious son on the spot.

Shi Yan touched his chin and thought this was a bit interesting.

Cheng Changqing was still sitting on the small bench and said aggrievedly: "I really don't know what's going on, I actually like Yu Qiao in my heart, since I saw Yu Qiao at the old lady's banquet three years ago by chance. , I have been thinking about her in my heart.

In the past few years, I have been thinking about waiting for the right time, so I told my parents about this, and asked my elders to propose marriage for me last week. "

Zhou Yuqiao, the wife chosen by Cheng Changqing's elders.

"I used to regard Cousin Yulong as my own sister, and I thought she was unruly, eccentric, and not at all likable. If it wasn't for him being the cousin of the princess' aunt's house, I wouldn't even say a word. willing.

But I don't know what's going on. Whenever I think this way, when I see that cousin, I feel that she is attractive everywhere. My actions, my eyes are unconsciously attracted to the other party, and there is a voice in my mind. Keep telling me that I love her, I love her deeply, I should be with her, have children, and love her all my life.

But in my heart, I still feel that this is wrong, very wrong! The person I like is obviously Yu Qiao! But every time I think about it like this, my head starts to hurt, and I can't rest in peace!

How can this happen, I'm going crazy! This is to tear me in half before giving up! I don't get married and don't get married, okay? I'm going to become a monk with my cousin! "

Shi Yan reminded lightly, "It's a Taoist priest!"

Cheng Changqing couldn't manage so much anymore, so he didn't pick at all: "Then be a Taoist priest!"

Cheng Lixue wanted to hit someone when she heard it, and her fists creaked: "Long Wang Shu! Shameless! I want to have both fish and bear's paws! Where can such a good thing happen?

If it weren't for the fact that you are still a little tangled and hesitant and know that you are doing something wrong, this beat up today is inevitable! "

Cheng Changqing even felt that being beaten by his father was more comfortable than going down the mountain to face these messes.

Shi Yan solemnly took out the Taoist scriptures from his sleeves, the two in front of them had one copy each, and in the eyes of the two men, they solemnly said: "According to the poor way, cousin is evil, although cousin looks at I don't have much fate with my teacher, but it is still necessary to follow me to recite the Taoist scriptures to exorcise evil spirits.

As for you, uncle, it is true that your anger is too strong, you need to clear your mind and few desires, twice a day to keep you refreshed and enter the state of a sage. "

Cheng Changqing was about to go mad. Is Sima a doctor? When Shi Yan said this, he immediately opened it and started reading. Before the tea time, the clenched fists gradually loosened, and the clenched teeth also loosened. Now, as for the bloodshot eyeballs, it has long been covered by the closed eyelids.

When he tilted his body, he saw that he was about to fall to the ground, but he was caught by his father and didn't wake up, and even snorted comfortably.

Shi Yan raised the Taoist scripture in his hand and gave his uncle a look: Am I right? My teacher's way, peerless baby!

The uncle also gave Shi Yan a look: Anyone who has not rested for several days and nights hears the Taoist chanting the scriptures, and everyone can fall asleep!
