Peach Blossom - Chapter 30
The king of Han got up early and inspected the carriage and dry food, and the sky was bright.
In the early morning in the suburbs of Beijing, the mountains are empty, cool and fresh, making people feel relaxed and happy. The King of Han paced back to his room again.
The princess has woken up and is dressing in front of the dressing table. Seeing her return, he smiled with her: “Your Highness, where did you go early in the morning?”
The King of Han hesitated and sat down beside the princess. There was a maid who was holding a jade comb and combing the princess’ hair. The long hair is soft and smooth, reaching the waist, and the jade comb is in the hand of the maid, as if it can slide down without anyone moving.
Han Wang thought of last night, kissing the princess, his face turned red, he glanced at the princess secretly, and whispered: “I, I’m going to look for a home order.”
She was worried that the princess would ask her what to do with her family order.
Han Wang shook his head.
The princess smiled: “Then your Highness, wait for me for a moment.”
Han Wang nodded, his legs were slightly forward to his knees, and the princess was closer, and she was talking softly, the princess also listened intently and answered with her.
After about a cup of tea, Fang Wan got a good hair.
You’re ready to go.
Han Wang looked happy, but there was some disappointment in the joy, but she tried hard to hide these disappointments.
She wants to spend a good day with the princess, and she can’t be worried.
The two had breakfast, and when they were about to go out, there was a drizzle.
The rain was not heavy, only the clothes were stained.
Han Wang stood under the eaves, watching the rain, thinking to himself, he needs to make Jialing prepare a few more rain gear on the carriage. Going out, it is not as cheap as in the palace. If you can prepare well, you must be as thorough as possible.
She was really worried that after A Yao left, she would suffer.
She really wants to be separated from her.
The princess came out of the room and walked to King Han, who smiled at her.
The drizzle did not stop the two from traveling.
The scenery in the mountains is ever-changing, it is raining, and it is different from the sunny day. This time, he was still walking up the mountain. King Han held an umbrella and walked beside the princess. It’s not raining much, so it’s just right for the two of you to share an umbrella.
Don’t be funny.
Han Wang continued to look left and right. The scenery in the mountains seems to be covered with a layer of fine mist, blurred and beautiful, the leaves are full of tide, and the green is deeper. Han Wang also stretched out his hand and touched the dark green leaf, it was half wet but not wet, and when a fingertip crossed it, a trace would be left on the leaf.
They are here to play, and they are not in a hurry.
The King of Han wanted to introduce this place to the princess, but after a few years, she almost forgot what the host of Guangping Temple told her. Only one, she was particularly impressed.
“There is a peach forest behind the temple. There is a peach tree in it. It is very tall, with prosperous branches and leaves. The flowers are also the most beautiful. I heard that the trees are thousands of years old.” Just like a child seeing a miracle, he brought some excitement and joy, “I haven’t seen it for a few years, and it has grown a few years older.”
The princess smiled at the King of Han and said, “It looks better than the plum blossom, apricot blossom, and pear blossom that His Highness has seen before?”
Han Wang nodded again and again and said sincerely: “It’s beautiful, no other flower can compare.” She can still remember the beauty of that peach tree in full bloom.
The princess glared at her, but said nothing and continued on.
Zhishan Temple, the host is standing outside the mountain gate waiting for you.
Seeing King Han, he put his hands together, bowed and said with a smile, “I haven’t seen you for three years, Xiao Tanyue will be fine?”
The King of Han also returned the gift: “Thanks to the master.”
The host glanced at Han Wang. He had an excellent memory. With just one glance, he closed Han Wang and the little Tanyue in his memory. Three years later, she has grown taller, but her appearance has not changed, she is still childish.
Moving to the side, she saw that it was a female Tan Yue, and the host didn’t see much, so she turned sideways and invited the two to enter the temple.
Guangping Temple is a small temple after all, it is not as grand and magnificent as the White Horse Temple, and the pilgrims coming and going are not as good as the crowd of the White Horse Temple.
Walking into the temple, I saw threes and twos of female relatives, led by little novices, advancing incense in the Buddha.
The king of Han knew very little about Buddhism and Taoism, but she had always been in awe, and when she came to other people’s land, she also followed the locals and worshipped in front of the Buddha.
After the incense, the King of Han and the princess went to the back of the temple. She has been here once, and she knows the way. There is no need to preside over the leader, and he walked over familiarly.
The king of Han liked peach blossoms, and he had to take a look at it every spring. Fang Jue was very happy. The peach blossoms in this mountain temple were different from other places. Maybe they were planted in the temple, dyed with Zen, and they were particularly scattered. Especially the thousand-year-old peach tree is so beautiful that it turns all living beings upside down.
Today’s light rain, and the last time, I have different interests, maybe I can see the grand scene of “peach blossoms fall like red rain”. The King of Han happily walked over and went around the corner. Sure enough, he saw a garden full of peach blossoms.
It rained all morning, and the soil was wet.
Han Wang smiled, looked at the princess and said, “Does it look good?”
The princess nodded.
The princess knew that she liked to see peach blossoms, but she didn’t say anything about her.
She has bright eyes, like a child eager to share her beloved with her companions, holding the princess’s hand and going around a few peach trees. The princess didn’t say a word, she just walked side by side with her.
Walking around a few peach trees, and around a few peach trees, but the thousand-year-old peach tree was never seen. The king of Han gradually became confused. She turned her head and said to the princess, “It’s here.”
While talking, he turned around again and again, but still couldn’t see the big tree.
Han Wang’s little brows gradually wrinkled, thinking of something, he hurriedly pulled the princess’ sleeve, and said nervously: “They won’t cut it off, right?”
The peach tree is a thousand years old. If something is to be built in the temple, or if the temple is to be repaired, it may be a nearby material. The King of Han was so anxious that without waiting for the princess to answer, he hurriedly said, “Let’s look for it again.”
As she walked all the way, she was so excited that she wanted to see the tree, but it disappeared.
Han Wang pulled the princess and went to look elsewhere.
There is only one thousand-year-old peach tree, how can it be said that there is no more, that is, people cut it down, and the stump is always there.
The peach forest was not big, and the princess followed Han Wang, watching her search round after round, her expression became more and more anxious, and she couldn’t help sighing inwardly, she had already Turned into a human form, how could he still be here.
Han Wang searched several times, but found nothing, and knew that the tree was really gone. She couldn’t figure out why a tree disappeared out of thin air, and she was lost and couldn’t see it, and the whole person was embarrassed.
The princess touched the back of her neck to comfort her, and the king of Han looked up at her and whispered: “It’s really gone, I wanted you to take a look, the other flowers are all It doesn’t look good without it.” The flowers of that peach tree are very beautiful. She has seen all the flowers, but they are not even the slightest. She wants the princess to see the good things. She always wants to share with the princess. But can’t see it.
After she finished speaking, she lowered her head again, embarrassed.
The princess didn’t know how to persuade her, but she felt warm in her heart. She had never heard His Highness mention the peach tree in Guangping Temple in the past two years. She thought that His Highness had seen it, but she forgot it, not wanting her to remember it all the time.
After a while, Han Wang raised his head and said, “But where did it go?”
Could it be that they were dug up by the roots? The roots are dug up, and then filled with soil. After a year or two, weeds will grow, and it is really hard to see.
Han Wang thought about it, and only thought of this possibility, the tree will never go away by itself. With that in mind, she was almost certain that it was.
Seeing the princess looking at her worriedly, Han Wang reluctantly bent his lips, but his little face was still lost, and said sadly: “It must be moved by someone, I don’t know where they moved it to. already.”
The surrounding peach blossoms seemed to be suddenly eclipsed, and the King of Han had no interest in rewarding them any more. She and the princess walked out of the peach forest, and saw a small novice waiting outside the forest. They came to invite the two of them and went to the wing for dinner .
When the King of Han saw him, he asked, “I don’t know where that thousand-year-old peach tree in the forest went?”
The little novice is just over ten years old and has been in the temple for less than a year. Hearing the words, he said puzzled: “There has never been a thousand-year-old peach tree in this peach forest.”
Han Wang was stunned for a moment.
