One person, one knife and one jug of wine. One flower, one leaf, one bodhi.
It is benevolent to spare a person under the sword without killing; it is benevolent to leave a person alive after being injured; it is also benevolent to teach but not to injure. These are Yue Qiufeng's own three realms of benevolence, and his understanding of himself is that he has only reached the second level.
He knew that he did not have the patience to teach others, so when he first met Princess Pingyang, he broke off their hands and legs.
"Master Yuanfa, long time no see." In a courtyard by the moat outside Kyoto City, Yue Qiufeng took a sip of wine and greeted the monk sitting opposite him.
Master Yuanfa clasped his hands together and recited the Buddha's name and said, "Has Master Yue reached the state of being able to injure without killing?"
Yue Qiufeng laughed, drew his sword, held a sword and looked at Monk Yuanfa and said: "To kill or not to kill, to injure or not to injure is just a matter of a thought for me. The choice between a thought is not the first choice." What does the two realms have to do with each other?”
He sheathed his sword and walked towards the river with a jar of wine. As he walked, he said: "One person, one knife, one jug of wine, one flower, one leaf, one Bodhi. When can I realize Bodhi for myself?"
After a while, I heard him talking to himself: "I'm not a disciple of Buddhism, why do I need to realize Bodhi by myself? Hahahaha..."
One is free and uninhibited, indulgent in the world, and the other lives in the palace with longing day and night.
Maybe it's because you have me in your heart, but I don't have you in my heart.
Maybe it’s because you have me in your heart, but coincidentally, I also have you in my heart.
Therefore, on ordinary nights, Yue Qiufeng often wakes up from his sleep, often filled with a strong sense of loneliness. At this time, what came to mind was the woman named Zhao Jingyao.
He didn't know why she always came to his mind immediately, but he couldn't help but have the urge to see her. So, we once again came to the largest restaurant in Kyoto, Yuemanlou.
"Princess, princess."
Xiaodie's anxious and joyful voice came from outside the door. People around her kept reminding her to slow down, but Xiaodie's impatient mood could not slow down.
"Princess, he is here!" Xiaodie ran to Princess Pingyang and gasped.
When Princess Pingyang heard this, her eyes suddenly lit up, and her whole body became energetic, which was very different from her usual twilight aura. Her eyes were shining brightly and she took Xiaodie's hand and asked, "Really, where is it?"
Xiaodie took out her hand, took a sip of water, stroked her chest and said, "Yuemanlou, I just entered Yuemanlou."
When Princess Pingyang heard this, she immediately stood up and said, "Quick, change your clothes, let's go to Yuemanlou too."
After hearing what the princess said, Xiaodie's expression suddenly changed and she said, "But princess, your majesty is coming to see you today."
When Princess Pingyang heard this, her busy figure suddenly stopped, looking a little lonely. She sat on the stool and asked feebly: "What should we do?"
A girl is always in love when she is pregnant with spring, and the branches are full of flowers without even realizing it. She is talking about Princess Pingyang at this moment. Xiaodie looked at Princess Pingyang who was in high spirits just now and whispered in her ear: "Princess, we can take the initiative to visit your majesty and tell her that you want to go out to play. Your majesty loves you so much, so he will definitely agree."
"But my father will definitely send someone to follow her, and I still can't go to see her." Princess Pingyang replied helplessly.
"Then let your Majesty send Coach Zheng to follow. When the time comes, the servant will help you drag Coach Zheng." When Xiaodie said this, her face turned red for no reason and continued: "After the slave sends Coach Zheng away, you can talk to Yue alone. The heroes have met."
Princess Pingyang thought for a while, then suddenly laughed, stretched out her hand and pinched Xiaodie's nose and said, "Xiao Nizi, you are so smart."
Xiaodie immediately acted coquettishly and said: "Princess, just praise others. Why are you pinching my nose?"
Princess Pingyang smiled and said, "Because I am willing."
After Princess Pingyang packed up everything, she took Xiaodie and other maids to go to His Majesty the Emperor's palace. As soon as he reached the door, a eunuch came to greet him. The young eunuch said: "Princess, your Majesty is currently discussing matters with Lieutenant Lin. Please go to the side hall and wait for a moment."
Princess Pingyang said "Oh" and followed the little eunuch. On the way, she saw Coach Zheng patrolling with several forbidden soldiers. When she saw the princess coming, she quickly stepped forward and bowed and said, "See you, princess."
Princess Pingyang smiled slightly as a signal, then turned her head and glanced at Xiaodie, then continued walking forward with the little eunuch. Xiaodie smiled knowingly and walked up to Coach Zheng and said, "Her Royal Highness the Princess will go out to play in the palace later. If Your Majesty wants to send someone to follow you, take the initiative to take over this task. Your benefits will be indispensable when the time comes."
Coach Zheng was slightly startled, but before he could react, Xiaodie had disappeared around the corner. Coach Zheng looked at the corner and felt strange in his heart, but it was Xiaodie who said it himself. If he didn't agree to see Xiaodie again then, he would be angry. He paused for a moment and led the imperial army to complete this round of patrol. After returning to His Majesty and handing over his duties, he stood guard for His Majesty with peace of mind.
After about a stick of incense, Captain Lin finally left. Princess Pingyang was already very impatient with waiting. Just when she was about to break open the door and go out to find His Majesty the Emperor, the door just happened to be pushed open, and we were followed immediately. His Majesty the Emperor walked in with long strides.
When Princess Pingyang saw this, she deliberately acted mean and pouted and said, "Huh, my father doesn't even love Yao'er anymore."
When the emperor heard this, he quickly licked his face and said, "Hey, my little Yao'er is angry. I kept you waiting for a long time. Isn't the father coming?"
"But what if you kept me waiting for so long?" Princess Pingyang said.
The emperor laughed and sat aside, stroking his beard and said, "You can do whatever you say. Father, I promise you."
"Really?" Princess Pingyang secretly rejoiced upon hearing this.
"Of course, my father's words can still be false."
At this time, the emperor did not know that he had fallen into the pit dug by his precious daughter, and was still stroking his beard with a smile. Upon seeing this, Princess Pingyang stretched out her green-white little finger and said, "Pull the hook."
The emperor looked at his daughter, chuckled and stretched out his little finger to pull Princess Pingyang's. They both said at the same time: "Hang yourself with a hook, and it won't change for a hundred years." Then they pressed their thumbs together and it was over. Then, Princess Pingyang smiled. Said: "Father, I want to go out and play."
When the emperor heard this, he immediately stopped stroking his beard and his face twitched. However, before he could speak, he heard Princess Pingyang say coquettishly: "You agreed just now. You will do whatever I say."
The emperor was helpless, sighed and said: "It's not impossible to go out to play, there must be someone to protect your safety."
"Just Coach Zheng." Princess Pingyang said immediately.
Hearing this, the emperor thought to himself: "Could it be that there is something going on between her and Zheng Shaoyou? Zheng Shaoyou is the son of the Minister of Household Affairs and is now the instructor of the Imperial Army. He is young and promising at his age, so it is not impossible."
Princess Pingyang saw the change in her father's expression and the thoughtfulness hidden in his smile, and she immediately understood. She knew that her father must have misunderstood. She quickly stood up and waved to His Majesty the Emperor and said, "Father, no, no."
"What's not true?" His Majesty the Emperor asked.
When Princess Pingyang heard this, she suddenly became speechless. She stopped where she was at a loss, looked at her father and said, "Ah, it's nothing."
