Inside the Buddhist hall.
The sweeping monk wore a green cloth robe and sat cross-legged on a futon with a solemn expression, as if he was in meditation.
Murong Chengze knelt down on the futon behind him very naturally, clasping his hands together and reciting scriptures silently.
Bao BuTong had already sent a letter to Murong Fu who was far away in northern Xinjiang to inform Murong Fu about the situation here. Deng Baichuan followed him to the Buddhist hall because he was worried about Murong Chengze's physical condition.
I saw the young master chanting sutras and worshiping Buddha like a normal person, but the master seemed to be asleep and ignored him completely. As time passed, even Deng Baichuan's calm temperament could not help but become irritable.
"Settle down in tranquility, grow in silence, meditate while sitting, meditate while walking, Deng Shi's master is obsessed with it, because he is in the situation, why disturb himself?" ?.?????.???
Deng Baichuan was standing uneasy and was about to interrupt when the sweeping monk's voice rang in his ears, causing him to swallow the words that reached his lips.
Helpless, Deng Baichuan could only wait patiently at the door. He stayed there all night, until a touch of fish belly white rose from the sky. When the first sun shone into the solemn Buddhist hall, Murong Chengze, who had been sitting quietly all night, suddenly vomited out a large mouthful of dirty blood, which was sticky. The thick poisonous blood seeped into the floor tiles, emitting an unpleasant smell.
While Deng Baichuan was surprised, Murong Chengze had already knelt down behind the sweeping monk.
"Disciple, thank you Master for saving your life!"
The sweeping monk said slowly: "If you can forgive others, please forgive them. If you know how to forgive others, you will have the virtue of tolerance. If I, the Buddha, are compassionate, I will naturally protect you."
Murong Chengze smiled and said: "Master teaches me sincerely, and my disciples will keep it in mind!"
"This matter is not settled yet, you can go on your own!"
After the sweeping monk finished speaking, the aura on his body became restrained again. Murong Chengze knew that this was because the master had entered meditation and issued an order to expel the guests.
After bowing deeply to the back of the sweeping monk, he followed Deng Baichuan out of the Buddhist hall.
Deng Baichuan couldn't wait to ask: "Young Master, is there poison in your body?"
Although Murong Fu was now named Prince of Yan, to the retainers of the Murong family, it was not a pity to be granted the title of Prince by the Emperor of the Song Dynasty. Therefore, in terms of title, they still used to call Murong Fu the Young Master, and Murong Chengze as Murong Fu. As the only son, he was naturally called the Young Master, not the prince as outsiders called him.
Murong Chengze's face was rosy at this time and he said: "Uncle Deng, don't worry, Master is helping me to detoxify. Just now, I have vomited out all the poison in my body!"
Deng Baichuan was determined and said with excitement on his face: "That's very good. That Zhong Wanchou dared to poison the young prince. I will order him to be captured and punished."
Murong Chengze hurriedly said: "Uncle Deng, wait a minute!"
"After all, Valley Master Zhong is Aunt Zhong's adoptive father. Anyway, I have nothing to lose, so I don't have to embarrass him anymore! Besides, this matter is also related to the grievances of my father's generation, so why not leave it to me and him to decide? Bar!"
After hearing this, Deng Baichuan felt that Murong Chengze's words were reasonable. He thought that he was worthy of being the son of his father-in-law and his cousin. At such a young age, he was able to remain calm and deal with everything smoothly. It seemed that he, Murong Chengze, had a chance to prosper the family!
After bidding farewell to Murong Chengze in a hurry, Deng Baichuan returned to the Shadow Tower and told Bao BuTong, who was extremely busy, about the news that the young master had been detoxified. He also sent a letter to Murong Fu again about the health of the young master. Good news.
Murong Chengze did not tell Xiao Qi about the poisoning, so when he saw the child the next day, Xiao Qi was not too worried except for the lingering fear of being frightened last night.
After the two had breakfast, they entered the palace again.
Just when Zhong Wanchou's plan failed and he returned to the Valley of Ten Thousand Tribulations disheartened, Dao Baifeng also staged a dramatic scene because of an uninvited guest in Yuxu Temple in Dali.
In the pure Taoist temple, Dao Baifeng's loose Taoist robe still couldn't block her proud figure. Although she was over forty years old, her appearance was like that of a young woman who had just left the Taoist temple in her twenties and thirties. Her skin was as tender as snow. She was full of charm, with not even a trace of wrinkles on her eyebrows and eyes. Her whole person looked radiant, which was in sharp contrast to the beautiful woman beside her who was covering her face and crying.
Dao Baifeng looked at the beautiful woman in front of him. He didn't know what to say for a moment. He didn't know how long it took before he couldn't help but sigh slightly: "If I had known this, why did I do it in the first place? What kind of person is he? I'm afraid you will compare with him." I couldn’t know better…”
"Even though everything was wrong in the past, I still hoped in my heart that he would repent, but today, he still does these things that are sorry for us, and I...I don't want to live anymore!"
The woman in front of her who was crying so hard that she looked very gentle but had deep intentions was none other than Duan Zhengchun's later concubine Gan Baobao, the mother of Zhong Ling and the ex-wife of Zhong Wanchou.
Dao Baifeng used to hate most of the women around Duan Zhengchun, especially Gan Baobao. In addition to being disgusted, she was also a bit afraid.
Different from Ruan Xingzhu, who is soft and pretty, a bitch who only knows how to make men happy, and different from Qin Hongmian, who is strong on the outside and soft on the inside, and dares to take risks, this Gan Baobao can be said to be a woman with a lot of wealth.
Not to mention that Ruan Xingzhu and Qin Hongmian both stayed safe for Duan Zhengchun, but the fact that Gan Baobao chose to marry Zhong Wanchou after being abandoned due to pregnancy shows that her affection for Duan Zhengchun is not pure. On the contrary , she treats the relationship between the two very rationally and knows how to choose.
As a woman, the truth is not that she can't live without a man, but that the person who can still maintain her sanity after the other person falls in love and has a secret knot is truly terrifying.
Therefore, when Dao Baifeng saw Gan Baofeng suddenly come to find her, crying that Duan Zhengchun had not changed his romantic nature and was still messing around with women, although she sympathized with him, she did not completely believe him.
However, seeing that Gan Baobao's words were genuine and his expression didn't seem like he was lying, Dao Baifeng was silent for a long time before he began to comfort him.
At the same time, Tianya became a human being, and she suffered deeply back then. Naturally, she could understand the feelings of Gan Baobao and Qin Hongmian. She could choose to forgive Qin Hongmian at the beginning, but now when she sees Gan Baobao again, her heart is shaken.
Gan Baobao was really disappointed this time. Duan Zhengchun had three lovely wives in his family, but he still incurred love debts outside, and many of them were girls who had not left the court. This made her jealous and unbearable.
Perhaps out of reluctance, or perhaps out of the last bit of nostalgia for Duan Zhengchun, she came to Yuxu Temple to complain to Dao Baifeng, hoping that the other party could give him some advice to control this romantic libertine.
When they argued with Duan Zhengchun several times about this matter, at first the unfaithful man would give in and coax them, but as time went by, he learned to refute the past things and said frankly that if he was not romantic, the three of them would be together again. How can you enter this Zhennan Prince's Mansion?
With just this word, they were left speechless and could only weep in the boudoir all day long.
