The whole place fell into silence. Miaoyin heard a slight explosion in his head. The sound subsided. Miaoyin quickly stood up, loosened her hands, and then made a "plop" sound. She knelt down in front of King Miaozhuang and Queen again and said loudly: "Father, Queen and Queen." Your Majesty, please accept my obeisance to the wonderful voice of the unfilial son!" After saying this, he kowtowed. "First, I would like to thank my mother for her kindness in giving birth!" It was another ring, "Then I would like to express my gratitude to my father for his virtues!" It was still another ring, "I would like to wish my father, queen and mother to live as long as heaven and earth, and to win glory from the sun and the moon"...
Miaoyin bowed twenty-four times in one breath, and King Miaozhuang and the Queen were so happy that they were entranced, almost to the point of dementia. At a birthday party, half of the civil and military officials were drunk. The liveliness and joy of the scene were similar to those of King Miaozhuang back then. Compared to when he first ascended the throne, he was even worse.
King Miaozhuang, who hoped that his son would become a dragon, saw that his son could speak, so he arranged for an attendant to teach her how to read and write on the day after Miaoyin's birthday.
But Miaoyin probably got used to being "wild" in the forest, so she was still very active after returning to the palace. Apart from reading, she only did two things throughout the year: one was to dig dirt in the back garden to make a mountain, and the other was to collect food in the palace. Endless old grain and rotten rice.
King Miaozhuang thought that this was because his son had not touched a grain of rice in five years, so he developed a strange temperament of searching for food whenever he saw it. In order to avoid hurting his son's self-esteem again, he had to let it go.
Time flies like an arrow, and the stars change. In this way, she worked day after day, year after year for seven years, and built a royal garden. She dug a deep hole in the center, piled the mountain high, and filled it with 291 of the old grain and rotten rice. Eighteen warehouses. February 19th this year was Miaoyin’s sixteenth birthday. The palace was decorated with lanterns and colorful decorations, the imperial kitchen was filled with delicacies, the maids and eunuchs were busy, the civil and military officials were beaming with joy, and the people and households inside and outside the court were preparing to celebrate the prince's birthday.
Just when everything was ready, the prince could not be found. He was neither digging in the back garden nor searching around the granary. Instead, he sat at the door of his eighteen rotten granaries and waited for something.
More than a dozen groups of eunuchs and maids came like shuttles, but they couldn't move to invite the prince to come.
In the end, it was the queen who took action in person and figured out what her son meant. All the old millet and rotten rice in the eighteen houses must be moved into the deep pit in the imperial garden and buried, and then the more than ten feet of rockery should be piled up. Only then are they willing to go to the birthday party.
King Miaozhuang gave the order, and immediately all the people, from the civil and military officials to the palace maids, picked, lifted, and pulled. They were busy until it was time to hold the lanterns, and then the "Prince" nodded with satisfaction. .
When the queen saw that all the civil and military officials were sweating profusely and exhausted from their busy work, the queen said with regret, "I really don't know what to do."
As soon as he finished speaking, Miaoyin said: "To survive the three years of famine!" The popular saying "Three years of famine" was passed down from that time.
A few years later, Xinglin Guozhen suffered from natural disasters for three consecutive years. The whole country has harvested nothing, and even the bark and grass roots have been eaten up.
At this time, someone thought of the old and rotten rice in the Imperial Garden. When he dug the hole, he saw that it had all turned into beige soil. He picked it up and tried it. It was not bitter, spicy, sour, or smelly, and it also gave off bursts of odor. Rice fragrant.
What’s interesting is that the more beige soil is dug, the more the people of Xinglin Kingdom eat it, and they haven’t finished it for three years!
Because this soil was given to everyone by Miaoyin, who later became Guanyin Bodhisattva, people named it "Avalokitesvara soil".
After hiding the food that day, Miaoyin changed her past playful and active nature and concentrated on reading.
Ten years passed by in a blink of an eye, and Miaoyin read all the classics and history and all the books in the palace, and became the leading talent in the Xinglin Kingdom.
When King Miaozhuang saw that the prince's studies were complete, he himself was half dead.
He felt that his son should get married and start a family as soon as possible in order to inherit the throne.
On this day, when King Miaozhuang mentioned his imperial pen and was about to write an imperial edict for the prince to select a concubine, the queen rushed in in a panic and said: ",..."
It turned out that as early as a month ago, the queen discovered that her son's chest had two lotus-like bumps, and his buttocks twisted when he walked, like a girl. She thought of her son's sudden change from female to male when he was just born. That scene. Nearly twenty years have passed, is it necessary to change from boy to girl again? Not long after, she found that her son's every word, every move, and every move had changed, and even the way he dressed looked like Miaoqing and Miaoyuan. Then he couldn't help but ask: "Why did the emperor disguise himself as a woman?"
Miaoyin said: "The child is born a woman. The previous woman disguised herself as a man was forced by her father."
The queen didn't dare not believe it, nor did she want to believe it completely. In the dead of night last night, she took advantage of the "Prince"'s deep sleep to finally see what was going on. Then he came to report to King Miaozhuang early in the morning that the eldest prince had become the third emperor's daughter.
King Miaozhuang didn't believe it at first, but then he thought about it. The matter of male changing into female and female changing into male in this world is not "only one family, no other semicolon". Besides, Miaoyin was born smart, proficient in governing the country and bringing peace to the people, and was talented in the world. Although he could not directly stabilize the country, he was still his right-hand man. Now she had no choice but to take advantage of the situation and recruit a consort with both civil and military skills to inherit the throne and make her a queen with power over the country.
The eldest daughter of King Miaozhuang, Miaoqing, is already Mrs. Sima, and the husband of the second daughter, Miaoyuan, has already served as a military marshal. If a young and promising consort is selected for the third daughter, Miaoyin, the throne will be handed over to him. , by then, wouldn’t it be like “eating porridge and drinking soup—qing (brother) plus clear (brother)” both inside and outside the royal family? Without a prince, it would still be a “family world”, a “couple country”, and a “father and son soldier”, and things would be done Come on, it's still "Sun Wukong exploring the road - covering the sky with his hands", which is more convenient than when he was in power.
When King Miaozhuang thought of this, he immediately turned his worries into joy and his anger into joy. Unexpectedly, when he finally selected Su Weijin, the son of Prime Minister Su, as his consort, Miaoyin Jing refused and said, "I will never get married."
King Miaozhuang and Queen Miaozhuang both drank a gourdful of phlegm and their mouths were bruised, but Miaoyin refused to let go.
You say that the prince looks like a flower, but she says that he is not as good as tofu; you say that Prime Minister Su is a good man, but she says that he does more good deeds than bad deeds when he kowtows and farts twice.
You said that the prince was loyal to the royal family, but she said that he was a flatterer who drove the carriage without a whip and only flattered him. To be fair, Mr. Wang is indeed a man of outstanding character, capable of both civil and military affairs. He is one of the most handsome men in a thousand. He is a versatile man who is hard to find even if he is wearing a lantern. King Miaozhuang couldn't figure out why Miaoyin ignored such a rare talent.
The queen thought that her daughter was dissatisfied with marrying the prime minister's son, so she advised her: "Youdao is the only master of a country. If you want to have a similar family, you have to marry far away!"
Miaoyin said: "A son never dislikes his mother's ugliness, and a dog never dislikes the poverty of the family. No matter how good the country is, it's better to live under someone else's roof."
King Miaozhuang said: "If the child aspires to be the leader of a country, my father can break the convention and make you the queen!" Miaoyin saw his parents trying to persuade him, so he said: "If the father is determined to have the child find a son-in-law, let the child choose a son-in-law." Doctor Fang is cured."
When King Miaozhuang saw that his daughter was relieved, he couldn't help but feel secretly happy, but then he thought about it and felt it was wrong: "I don't know what my son's intention is in choosing a doctor from Youfang as his consort?"
"What I want to recruit is not a mediocre doctor, but a doctor who can heal the world without any signs of decadence, no cold or heat, no love and lust, no pain of old age and illness, no distinction between superior and inferior, rich and poor. The humiliation of a holy doctor or immortal who has no heart for you or me!"
"We are really talking in our sleep in the clear sky. How can there be such holy doctors and immortals as you mentioned in this world?"
"Since there is no such thing, I have no choice but to become a nun. I hope my father does not need to persuade me any more. I will never waver in my determination."
King Miaozhuang said angrily: "Since you are so rebellious, you have eaten the weights to strengthen your heart, and I have also eaten the pole to cross my waist. If you really want to become a monk, my father will not stop you, but you must do three things before becoming a monk. If you can't do one thing, don't even think about leaving the palace alive!"
Miaoyin said: "My daughter will definitely obey my father's words, but my father must keep his words." King Miaozhuang said viciously: "You have no joke!"
