The Guanyin Bodhisattva in the painting lowers his head slightly, with a very kind face. After looking at it for a long time, it seems that all the distracting thoughts in his heart have disappeared, and he feels calm and stable.
The prince even felt that he was completely relaxed at this time, and he couldn't help but want to close his eyes and take a nap.
Just a moment after he had this idea, the bamboo painting in the prince's hand slipped from his hand and fell to his feet. He leaned heavily on the soft pillow and fell into a deep sleep.
After an unknown amount of time, the prince was awakened by a low and urgent voice beside him.
Hearing that the person calling him was the attendant beside him, the prince rubbed his sleepy eyes, wondering why he fell asleep, while leaning over to pick up the bamboo painting.
Seeing that the prince had not gotten out of the car for a long time, the attendant was a little anxious and said, "Your Highness, you'd better get out of the car as soon as possible. It's already a little late."
"What time?" The prince was stunned. "When is it too late?"
The attendant was also stunned, "His Royal Highness, the Crown Prince, suddenly changed his mind when he was about to arrive at the residence. He said that he wanted to enter the palace to pay his respects to His Majesty. Now that he has arrived in the palace, if His Highness does not go to pay his respects to His Majesty right now, he will just I'm afraid that the Holy One will go to Qingxu Hall..."
The Qingxu Hall is the place where the current saints perform pure cultivation. Every time it is the right time, the saints will bathe and change clothes, and go to the Qingxu Hall on time in order to achieve enlightenment, become an immortal, and live forever.
Moreover, the Holy One has ordered that no one can disturb him at this time, not even the Queen or the Crown Prince.
Hearing this, the prince frowned. After tightening his fists, he opened the curtain and said, "Did I say that I want to come to the palace to pay my respects to my father?"
"It's natural." The attendant was a little confused when asked, "I was not sure at the time, so I checked with His Highness again and again, and His Highness even lost his temper!"
The prince's frown deepened.
He was sleeping so deeply that he didn't even know where he was. How could he ask his attendants to come to the palace?
Or was it because he was sleeping so deeply that he mumbled a few words in his sleep without even realizing it?
But now that he has arrived at the palace, the reason for entering the palace is to pay respects to his father, so there is no reason not to go at this time.
The prince thought for a moment, then clutched the bamboo painting in his hand tighter and tighter, then got off the carriage and headed to Zhongyuan Palace.
Going all the way, we soon arrived at the gate of Zhongyuan Palace, but at this time, Zhongyuan Palace seemed more solemn than usual. The maids, attendants, and guards at the door knelt on the ground, and they were all trembling and shaking like chaff.
"What happened?" the prince asked.
"Go back to Your Highness." A palace maid's voice had a thick vibrato. "The Holy One took a nap today, and the people below did not dare to disturb him. As a result, His Majesty's meditation time was delayed, and the Holy One became extremely angry..."
"The Holy One reprimanded the people below, and the people below were frightened. When begging for mercy, they accidentally hit the incense burner. The Holy One became more and more angry and wanted to pull all the people in the palace away..."
The palace maid gritted her teeth and did not say the remaining two words.
But the prince also understood that everyone was going to be put to death.
The prince's brows furrowed again.
It was too late to knock over the incense burner. The person underneath did make a mistake, but the mistake will not lead to death.
But the current Holy One is obsessed with spiritual practice and attaches great importance to meditating on the incense burner. Naturally, he will not talk about kindness and kindness at this time, and it will definitely cost the lives of these people.
The prince thought for a moment and his eyes fell on the bamboo painting in his hand.
