Li Xiuyuan did not argue with Helian Mingyue about whether to become a monk or not, because he did not have enough time, and his heart was already on the way to leave, on the stone steps down the mountain.
He quietly brewed a pot of spiritual tea, and as the fragrance of tea gradually spread in the pavilion, Helian Mingyue had an illusion.
She couldn't wait to taste the spiritual tea in the young man's pot. She even wondered if this guy was deliberately disgusting her when he entertained guests in the middle of the mountain yesterday.
As if he had read her mind, Li Xiuyuan smiled: "I said that crude tea and spiritual tea, for me, if you look deeper, they are just drinking water to quench your thirst."
Helian Mingyue shook her head: "The world doesn't think so."
"People..."
Li Xiuyuan stretched out his hand to give Helian Mingyue a cup of fragrant spiritual tea, and replied: "People in the world need to have a sense of ritual when drinking tea. Even when my husband taught me to practice, he first learned the tea ceremony."
"Is there anything wrong?" Hebian Mingyue asked.
Shaking his head, Li Xiuyuan replied: "At that time, when I made tea, I had to distinguish between different spring water, different heat, different tea leaves, and even charcoal teapots and cups..."
"At that time, brewing a pot of spiritual tea was just to satisfy my husband, make my parents happy, make my elders praise me, and make my friends envious..."
"When I first met Mr., the tea in the cup was just a cup of water. Later, it was no longer a cup of spiritual tea, but a ritual, a way, a kind of cultivation..."
"Yes, I have experienced your story too."
At the moment, Helian Mingyue thought of her master. When she was a girl, she was just like the Li Xiuyuan in front of her.
I am struggling with whether this is a pot of tea, or if I brew a pot of tea, I can break through the three realms in a row...
Li Xiuyuan couldn't help but sigh as he thought about the experience of wandering around the heavens alone after not being with his husband and master for thousands of years.
He picked up the cup and smiled: "Drink the tea first while it's hot."
Waiting for Helian Mingyue to take a sip of the spiritual tea in the cup, with a look of surprise in his eyes.
Li Xiuyuan continued: "It wasn't until I didn't know the taste of tea for three years and lived just to live that I realized that this crude and spiritual tea is just drinking water."
"When friends come, you can carefully cook a delicious tea to entertain them, waiting for you to sit alone by the window. Who wants to make tea just for the sake of drinking tea? Even if the tea is tasteless, you can still drink three cups."
Speaking of this, Li Xiuyuan sighed: "This is the third flavor of tea I have drunk."
Helian Mingyue did not speak, but drank a cup of spiritual tea from the cup in his hand, then put it on the table and smiled: "One more cup."
So the two of them drank a pot of spiritual tea and watched the boats coming and going on the river.
Looking at it, Helian Mingyue laughed: "If you still have something on your mind, tell it. Don't hide it in this cup of tea."
After a moment of silence, Li Xiuyuan sighed.
He said quietly: "If you can let go of the past and stop the Meng Mansion from causing trouble to the villagers in the town, give me a promise and I will talk about the next thing."
Helian Mingyue was shocked when he heard this, and a layer of frost suddenly appeared on his face: "He is my son."
Li Xiuyuan replied, "No, he is a descendant of the Meng family... You are not stupid enough to expose this matter and let everyone in the Meng family know, are you?"
From Li Xiuyuan's point of view, if the woman in front of him is so stupid, there is no need for him to say anything further. Everything he says is wrong.
"How is that possible? Do you think I am a three-year-old child?" The frost on Helian Mingyue's face was still there.
Li Xiuyuan chuckled and replied: "That's good."
"Tell me, what kind of promise do you want? What else do you want to say? I'll listen."
Helian Mingyue looked at Helian Ruoxue in the temple and the girl making tea with the old man, and couldn't help but sigh.
Li Xiuyuan replied: "I told you that day in the mountains that the matter between the Meng family and my disciple is over. How about you give me a promise to discipline Meng Wuhen and never invade this place?"
"Then what?" Helian Mingyue did not refuse or agree, but continued to ask.
"It's still a matter between Qingfeng and the princess. I talked to the princess yesterday and asked her to go back to the imperial city with you first. From now on, you will bring her here every autumn. As for whether Qingfeng can let go in the end, will the princess meet Better people…”
Sighing softly, Li Xiuyuan smiled bitterly and said, "I'm not a god."
Helian Mingyue was startled when he heard this, and couldn't help but raise his head and stare at Li Xiuyuan.
He blurted out: "This doesn't seem to be your character. You dared to draw a sword at me yesterday and wanted to compete with me. Where are you today?"
"You think too much."
Li Xiuyuan smiled bitterly and said: "If I don't fight with you, will you confide in me and sit here with me calmly, drinking tea and enjoying the scenery?"
Thinking about the loving mother in the forest, compared with the woman in front of him who had regained her aura as a queen, Li Xiuyuan understood that it was impossible for the two to become friends.
After all, I was just passing by in a hurry.
Since he couldn't be friends, he simply made his words more explicit and continued without waiting for Helian Mingyue to reply.
"I think in this world, it's hard for Your Majesty to find someone you can talk to... How about I help you find someone, I guarantee your satisfaction, and you won't be annoyed."
When Helian Mingyue heard this, he couldn't help but slap the table: "How dare you insult my innocence, I will chop off your head."
"Don't scare me with your queenly aura, I'm not your subject."
Pointing in the direction of the temple, Li Xiuyuan said seriously: "Gongyang Bo is similar to you. He only looks so old due to lack of vitality. You two can love each other..."
After a pause, while Helian Mingyue was stunned, Li Xiuyuan picked up a withered leaf from the wind with his flower hand.
The power of water, the power of yin and yang, and the laws of life and death are condensed between the fingers...
Just when the Queen covered her mouth and was about to scream...
I saw the withered leaves gradually turning green, and finally, under the gaze of Helian Mingyue, they turned into a piece of green as the branches in March, the leaf that had just sprouted and bloomed...
"Heaven is ruthless, but there is love in the world...I can give him a chance of life and give you two a chance to know each other and stay together. Believe me, no one in this world understands you better than him."
Gently, Li Xiuyuan placed the leaf between his fingers in front of Helian Mingyue.
After a fierce attack, he finally said everything he wanted to say.
As for whether the two of them can get together in the future, just like whether Qingfeng can stay with Ruoxue in the future, that is not something he can predict.
Helian Mingyue rarely cursed this time, but gently picked up the green leaf, put it in front of his nose and smelled it.
In just an instant, she felt the strong vitality of March.
Even though there were shocking waves in her heart, she still did not respond to Li Xiuyuan's question. Instead, she reached out and touched Li Xiuyuan's face, showing a touch of motherly care.
He asked gently: "Since you have such heaven-defying power, why don't you heal your eyes? Isn't light worthy of your yearning?"
Shaking his head, Li Yuan sighed.
Pointing his finger to the sky, he said with a wry smile: "I thought so, but he refuses... Everything depends on his arrangement."
This time, Helian Mingyue was once again deeply shocked.
It wasn't because Li Xiuyuan couldn't heal his eyes, but because this guy was blind and still didn't complain about the unfairness of the sky.
"This has nothing to do with God, it's my own choice."
As if he felt Helian Mingyue's thoughts, Li Xiuyuan sighed: "That day I learned that Yu'er and Xiaodie both died at the hands of the old devil, and I was sad for a moment... Fortunately, later I took Xiaodie The son was saved from the clutches of the old devil."
Helian Mingyue took a deep breath and put down the leaves in his hands.
Looking at him, he replied: "I will give you the promise you want. I will discipline him well after I return. I will leave the matter of Ruoxue and Qingfeng to the test of time..."
The wise woman did not mention her own affairs because she had not seen the miracle yet.
Li Xiuyuan's heart was like a mirror, and he also knew that since he didn't refuse in person, he was waiting for him to surprise the two of them.
As for this surprise, he had already prepared it for the two of them, and was just waiting for Her Majesty the Queen in front of him to give him this promise.
Thinking of this, Li Xiuyuan smiled faintly: "A drunken heart rejoices, and joy breeds virtue. Today, I can treat your Majesty to a glass of the spiritual wine I brewed myself."
Seeing the smile on the young man's face, Helian Mingyue couldn't help but laugh.
He said with a smile: "Is it possible that you can let me break through the situation overnight, or can you restore me to my former appearance? If you can give me a surprise, why should I agree to another condition of yours?"
"No, I have no desires and requirements. Huajiao will leave this world with me. From now on, this is the world that belongs to Gongyang Bo and His Majesty."
Li Xiuyuan added some spring water to the pot and a few pieces of charcoal to the fire.
I just made a recipe of spiritual tea, it’s still early.
Helian Mingyue took advantage of Li Xiuyuan's time to make tea and raised his head to look around. Unexpectedly, he only took a glance and frowned slightly.
He asked: "This pavilion and these iron pillars are good, but why is there a big tomb in this mountain? What do you mean, threatening me with dead people?"
"You think too much. Wherever there are people, there will be lonely graves."
Li Xiuyuan said quietly: "The tomb was already here before the pavilion was built. Your Majesty went up the mountain and didn't see the stone tablet of "Cihang Pudu"?"
No matter whether the woman in front of him would go crazy or not, Li Xiuyuan did not tell anyone about Hua Yiyi and Wen Ziwei being buried together.
And no one in this world can destroy this big tomb.
Right here, from a distance, Helian Mingyue watched Qingfeng carrying the old man down the mountain in the morning. Behind him, it was Helian Ruoxue carrying the woman...
I couldn't help but feel soft in my heart, not because of Helian Ruoxue's golden status, but because I felt that a young master from a family like Qingfeng had a little more compassion when he practiced here.
What she likes is that the compassion in Qingfeng has also infected Ruoxue.
Even as the daughter of the royal family, she also hopes that Helian Mingyue will be less violent and more kind and compassionate.
Thinking of this, I couldn't help but murmur to myself: "Cihang Pudu, do you want to save all the villagers at the foot of the mountain?"
...
On this day, Helian Mingyue, who let go of the Meng Mansion, also let go of the Queen's reserve.
After looking at several vegetable plots cultivated by Li Xiuyuan and the old man behind the temple, and looking at the vegetable plot where small sprouts had just sprouted, I once again felt the vitality of spring.
The three people in Huajiao spent a whole day at the foot of the mountain. After completing the tasks assigned by their husband, they bought some food and went up the mountain.
With the food brought back by Huajiao, Li Xiuyuan opened a small jar of spiritual wine and poured a glass for Helian Mingyue and Gongyang Bo, and for Qingfeng Xueruo.
The three of them, master and disciple, still drank black bean wine. Helian Mingyue asked in confusion: "Is there a difference in drinking?"
Li Xiuyuan smiled: "What we, master and disciple, drink is a waste, but what you drink is spiritual wine. Come on, let us drink away our grudges with a smile and have a drink."
The old man Gong Yangbo thought about what Li Xiuyuan said and couldn't help but tremble all over. He picked up the cup and sighed: "Thank you sir for your kindness."
Helian Ruoxue raised her glass and smiled: "Ruoxue, thank you sir for your hard work."
Qingfeng thought for a while and said: "Thank you sir for your mercy."
Helian Mingyue showed an expectant smile on his face, raised the wine glass in front of him and said, "Let me get what I want with your virtue."
Xiaodie'er clapped her little hands, picked up the cup and said with a smile: "Junior sister, junior brother, come together to respect Mr."
Li Xiuyuan smiled lightly: "If you have a drinking heart, I hope you can all be happy."
