Wishing You Eternal Happiness - Chapter 124

Half a month after the prince’s wedding, Emperor Wei named the youngest son the King of Clouds, and the Ministry of Rites organized his marriage to Pei Wenjing, the daughter of Weiguo.

In the spring of the following year, Emperor Wei died and the prince succeeded to the throne. Three months later, the new emperor sent the king of Yunzhong to Wuding, Yunnan, based on the ancestral system.

It was secretly rumored that King Yunzhong was hated by the new emperor. On the day he left Beijing, there was no one to send him away except for a few people such as Pei Xian.

After trekking all the way, several months later, Xiao Lie and his party finally entered Yunnan, and then went to Wuding non-stop.

At that time, Wuding was only a chaotic city on the southwest border. It was only under the jurisdiction of the imperial court more than ten years ago. It was far less prosperous and stable than decades later. The roads were broken, the people’s livelihood was dying, thieves were rampant, and the entry was only a day. On the wild path, I encountered two robbers. The robbers were extremely vicious. Fortunately, Xiao Lie had heard of him and kept guarding the carriage that Pei Wenjing was riding. The guard beheaded to the road.

The king of the cloud came here, the news spread like wildfire, and the bandits fled after hearing the wind. In the next few days, peace on the road was found.

The carriage that the princess was riding on was about to arrive in Wuding City. Due to heavy rain and bumps in the road, the wheels fell into a muddy stone pit, the axles broke, and it was unable to move forward.

There is no village in front of this place, no shops in the back, and it is almost evening. In order to avoid sleeping in the wilderness, Pei Wenjing changed to the carriage carrying luggage at the back, crowded in the corner, and finally entered the city before dark and arrived at the palace. .

The palace was where the former city lord’s palace was located. Although the place is large, it was burned by war when the court returned to this place more than half a decade ago. Over the years, it has not been repaired. Entering the gate, you can see it, and it is completely dilapidated.

The house that Xiao Lie and Pei Wenjing lived in that night was the best one in the palace, but it rained too much. In the middle of the night, the roof of the roof began to leak, and the rainwater slowly seeped along the wall. The water flowed to the bottom of the bed, poured into the hole, and the mouse escaped out of the hole. He couldn’t find a way out of the house for a while. He panicked and ran up the top of the tent along the bed frame, crawling up and down, making a creaking cry. Voice.

The hard work of traveling, the ruin of the domain, the bleak future…Nothing can cool the two closely-attached hearts of the two young men. The young man’s energy seems to be endless. Fang stunned him for a while. The intention was still not enough, but seeing that the sweet wife was really tired, the star eyes were half-opened and half-closed, and could not bear to force her, so she put her to sleep.

Pei Wenjing was falling asleep dimly. He was suddenly awakened by a crawling mouse above his head. With a scream, he was completely drowsy, and got into the arms of the man beside him, holding him tightly with jade arms.

Xiao Lie smiled, kissed her, comforted her, and finally wrapped her in a quilt, got out of bed, drew his sword to drive away the mice, and finally drove the uninvited guests away. He went to bed with his tent, and saw that she was still hiding under the blanket with her head covered. Hearing the movement of him going to bed, he revealed a pair of bright eyes from the quilt, glanced at the top of the tent quickly, and asked him, can the rat go?

Xiao Lie wanted to frighten her again, so that she would get into her arms like just now, hold him, and don’t let go.

He loved the feeling of being hugged tightly by her for protection, as if he was her heaven.

But the moment he met her beautiful eyes, his emotions suddenly fell.

She was once the jewel in the palm of the Pei Mansion, just like a precious Guerlain, she deserves the most precious care in the world, but now she follows herself, away from the prosperous capital, and comes to this southwestern border, where she has to suffer so much.

He is named Prince, and she is his princess. But even a room that can make her tired of sleeping peacefully, I can’t give her now.

The smile on his lips gradually disappeared.

“Ajing, blame me for my incompetence and make you suffer with me…”

He whispered.

This way, she grew up spoiled and raised, but she never complained.

In his heart, he felt more guilty.

Pei Wenjing and him looked at each other, but his lips slowly showed a smile.

“I never felt any pain. I am your wife. I will go wherever you go. Together, we will never separate.”

Her voice was gentle, but her words and words revealed a kind of tenacity, reaching the bottom of his heart.

The young King of the Cloud, staring at the face on his pillow that had been in his dream since he was a teenager, slowly leaned in, hugged her tightly in his arms, and kissed her lovingly, as if she were The most precious treasure in the world.

Indeed, she is his most precious treasure in this world.

He almost lost her, lost forever, and he was so lucky to sleep with her like this tonight.

The young prince who didn’t know the sorrow, never returned.

At this moment, he swore from the bottom of his heart that for the rest of his life, he would do his best to offer her the best he could give her.

…

Three years later, the old Wei Guogong, who was laid off after being dismissed from his post, died. Xiao Liezou asked to go to Beijing to go to the funeral. Emperor Tianxi refused to allow him. Later, Xiao Lie was sued before Emperor Tianxi for conspiring to commit a great rebellion. Then, The king of Shun’an also joined Pei Xian, who had just inherited the title, and also participated in the rebellion. Emperor Tianxi was furious, sent Pei Xian to jail, cut the Prince Xiao Lie, ordered to send troops to arrest him, Xiao Lie issued a letter to the world, vindicated the grievances, called self-protection, and led the soldiers to rise.

According to Wei Shuzai, at the beginning of Sejong’s uprising, there were only a few tens of thousands of men and horses, but the court had hundreds of thousands of soldiers and horses. Everyone said that they would smash the tree and be defeated. Unexpectedly, God also helped. The next year, Sejong was in a critical situation. At the same time, there was news that Emperor Tianxi died of a sudden illness. It is said that before his death, it was reported that King Shun’an, who had always won the heart of the emperor, was in an uproar. When the emperor seized the throne, Xiao Lie took the opportunity to win the hearts of the people, bucked the trend, and used many ways to help. Three years later, he swung into Beijing and was promoted as emperor, named Zhaoping, who was Sejong.

That year, Xiao Lie was only twenty-five years old, and he and Empress Pei had a pair of children, happy.

On the first Shangyuan night after he took the throne, he took the hand of Empress Pei, and the two stood side by side on the top of the tall building in the Hall of Picking Stars. People look at each other and laugh, and they all miss it.

It’s night, the empress talks at night, staying up late at night.

In the emperor’s mind, the dream that had awakened himself in the military tent in the field that night again appeared many years ago.

The eyes of the young man in the dream when he stared at him were still deeply imprinted in his mind, unforgettable.

He will never forget it for the rest of his life.

The person in the dream, he and himself must have some kind of involvement that he doesn’t know, and this kind of involvement is deeply rooted in the bones and cannot be separated.

The emperor’s intuition convinced him of this.

He wanted to know who he was and what he was for. The secret of heaven has made him and the person in his heart perfect, and then changed the fate of the two.

He wants to know where he is now and what he is doing. In this life, can he see him again?

…

The year following Xiao Lie’s accession to the throne, Zhaoping year, in Quanzhou City on the southeast coast, a wealthy businessman surnamed Zhen is beaming today.

Uncle Zhen’s grandfather was kind to an official family surnamed Meng in his early years. Master Meng married a daughter to Zhen’s family. The young couple had very good relationships and were very affectionate. They had already given birth to a son named Zhen Yaoting. Today, Meng successfully gave birth to a daughter. The daughter of Yuxue was lovely, well-behaved and smart, named Jiafu, and was raised as a darling by the couple.

In the blink of an eye, the business of the Zhen family has grown bigger and bigger, becoming the richest man in Quanzhou, and the daughter of the Zhen family is getting better and better. At only five or six years old, she is already a perfect beauty. . This year, Meng clan brought a pair of children to the Nanshan Jinxian Temple to worship the Buddha and make a wish, praying for her husband to go out to sea safely. After marrying to Zhen’s family, whenever her husband went to sea with the boat, such worship and vows became mandatory for Meng clan. One less pious thing.

The Golden Buddha Temple is located in the Nanshan Mountains outside the city. It is an ancient temple for thousands of years. It is said that thousands of years ago, the Zen master who built the temple by alms was here to get to the road and cultivated into an Arhat, hence the name Golden Buddha. In the mountains, the peaks are stacked, the springs are mingled, the temples are green with pines and cypresses, and the birds are in the middle.

Because of the Fa conference on this day, Meng clan went to listen to the Fa after he had worshipped the Buddha devoutly. I used Su Zhai in the noon. Seeing that Little Jiafu was sleepy, Meng took a pair of children to the quiet room for a nap, asked the servant wife to accompany him, and went to the front to continue listening to the Fa.

Little Gaffer’s brother Yaoting, since he was naughty, how can he sleep honestly? After reluctantly closing her eyes for a moment, seeing her mother leaving, she quietly awakened her sister while the servant maid was not in the house, and leaned to her ears, saying that she had found something interesting in the Houji Temple this morning and led her to play. Little Jiafu was taken to the back temple by her brother.

In today’s temple, there are many pilgrims, and when spring is coming, peach blossoms are in full bloom, and visitors are constantly coming and going. My brother is like a leather monkey, crawling around among the crowds. Little Jiafu has short legs and can’t catch up for a while. Turning around, he has disappeared. The figure, holding back the panic in his heart, looking for a moment, not only couldn’t find his brother, but found that he had walked into a remote and empty place without knowing it. Not only could he not find the way back, he could not even see half of it. , I was afraid in my heart and couldn’t help but shed tears.

While wiping her tears, she called to her brother, but her brother never saw the person. She seemed to go further and further, and finally did not dare to leave. She stopped on the mountain road and started to cry, crying, when she was sad. Suddenly I heard a gentle voice in my ear: “What’s the matter with you?”

Gaffer raised her eyes, her tears were dim, and she saw the peach blossom tree on the side of the road. He did not know when, a strange boy had been erected.

He seemed to be about the same size as his brother. The clothes on his body were washed white, but they were clean and spotless. With a book in his hand, he seemed to be drawn to him by his own crying while reading a book nearby.

He was as thin as a bamboo, and he was very beautiful, with dark eyes and bright eyes. The bright little Gaffer could almost see the projection of himself in his pupils.

I don’t know why, the moment she saw him, all the panic and fear she had just disappeared suddenly.

She felt as if she had seen him somewhere, but she couldn’t remember.

Gaffer forgot to cry and stared blankly at the man in front of him.

“Don’t be afraid. I’ll take you back now.”

The young man put down his book and squatted down, using his own sleeves, lovingly wiped away the tears and snot that had just cried for her, and he didn’t think she was dirty at all. He folded another peach blossom for her and handed it to her.

Little Jiafu burst into laughter, took the peach blossom he folded for herself, looked up at this gentle and handsome little boy, and asked: “Who are you? Where do you live?”

The young man looked at the little pink girl in front of him who was looking up at her with a small face. She was silent, with a thousand soft light in the depths of her eyes.

In her previous life, she asked him for help in desperate situations. After a brief meeting, the two of them no longer met each other and each completed their own lives.

She was eventually buried alive in the underground palace, and he died early in a lonely city outside the Great Wall.

Everyone says that he is a talented person. Not only was he named as a young prime minister and a white-robed official, but later he also assisted the emperor to ascend the throne as the first hero, and was an extremely human minister.

He was both a Confucian official and a commander. In the years before his death, he was abuzz with the frontier fortress and called the Hu people to return to the north. He did not dare to turn around.

He died of a bowl of poison.

He knew that once he drank the concoction, everything in this life, all the glory and shame, would come abruptly in the snowy night of that lonely city and be completely buried.

But he still drank it.

The bowl of poison was as early as he had expected.

He is also ready for that day.

It was not that he was afraid of the one who would kill him.

It was that he had no intention of fighting.

In that world, he couldn’t think of any other people or things that fettered him.

This is a superfluous person, gone, but it’s just a return.

He walked very peacefully, but just before he died, somehow, in his mind, the cousin who had met briefly many years ago appeared in his mind. At that time, she found herself and asked him for help. At that time, those chuchu eyes filled with fear and gratitude.

After the battle, the younger sibling he had assisted, reportedly later died of a rebellion, and even the body was not seen. There has been no news of her since then.

He thought that he had forgotten it a long time ago, but it turned out that so many years have passed. The scene of her rushing to ask for help that day was still printed in the depths of his mind. He had never forgotten it, it was just before his death. , Those beautiful eyes appeared again.

After his death, the people built a temple for him and offered incense to him. It was only then that he finally learned that she did not die back then, but was hidden in a deep palace, and finally buried alive in the ground. , Xiang Xiaoyu perishes. At this point of fate, even the commander couldn’t bear it, so she was reincarnated and reborn.

Fortunately, in the life she was born with, after sufferings, she finally made a good relationship with herself in that life. That self, also because of her arrival, made his life complete.

Apart from gratification, for the self who was fortunate enough to be with her day and night, in the depths of his heart, it might not be secret envy.

Even though his soul is immortal after death, even if he lives with the sky, but the blue and blue sea, in the day and night, the heart has nothing to return, how is it different from that lonely ghost?

In this life, too many regrets. Whether it is her, the biological parents who gave him his life, or the Pei family who raised him, all have ill-fated destinies.

He told Si Ming that he willingly gave up his immortal spirit in exchange for a life without regrets for all these people.

…

The teenager pondered for a moment, then smiled and said, “I live here, you can call me Brother Youan.”

“Brother Youan…”

Gaffer said his name seriously, nodded and said: “I remember it.”

She liked this young brother named You’an, and smiled at him, his smiling eyes bent into a pair of crescents.

When the teenager led her back to the front, the Meng clan was anxious, calling his family and the monks in the temple, looking for his daughter everywhere, and suddenly saw Jia Fu running towards him, hugged her, and wept with joy.

Gaffer was in her mother’s arms, turned her head, and saw that her younger brother smiled and nodded at him, then turned and left, gradually disappearing into the crowd.

When Meng’s mood calmed down, he remembered the young man who had brought her back. He looked around but no longer saw the person.

Seeing the boy’s clothes, he seemed to be from a poor background. Meng thanked him for bringing his daughter back and described the boy’s appearance to the monk in the monastery. The monk listened and laughed and told her that the boy had no father and no mother. He was an orphan. He was swaddled by his uncle Zen master, who was wandering away when he was still in his infancy. Embraced from outside, adopted in the temple. The child was very clever since he was a child. He was studying at the age of three and never forgets his life. The Zen master wanted to accept him as a closed disciple, but for some reason, he gave up this plan and gave him the name of a layman. Youan. Two years ago, when he was young, he was recorded as the first scholar in the state capital. At that time, he made a sensation in the whole state school. The academic officer came to the monastery in person, and after personally testing his knowledge, he wanted to admit him to school, but he declined. , Now he still lives in a cottage in the back mountain, eats porridge, studies all day long, and lives in poverty.

Meng went back and talked about it with her husband.

Uncle Zhen had also heard of the talent of the poor young man at the Golden Buddha Temple. With such a coincidence, he went to visit the temple in person. He saw that young man, although young, but generous, neither humble nor overbearing, he liked it very much, and believed it even more. Although the young man was born in a cold, he will never be in the pool in the future. After coming back, I kept thinking about it. One day, while holding her daughter on her lap, she suddenly thought about recruiting the boy as his son-in-law.

He was impatient. He thought about it, and immediately said to Meng Shi. Meng Shi naturally agreed. Uncle Zhen went to his mother and hurried to the Golden Buddha Temple. He found the uncle Zen Master who had adopted the boy that day, and explained his future intentions.

He looked at the Zen master anxiously, fearing that the Zen master shouldn’t. Unexpectedly, the Zen master listened and did not comment. He only took him to the house where the young man lived and asked if he would be recruited as a son-in-law by the Zhen family.

The young man was sitting behind the table, holding a book in his hand, putting down the book, and going out of the threshold, facing Uncle Zhen, without hesitation, he kneeled straight and called his father-in-law.

Uncle Zhen was overjoyed and immediately made a marriage contract. Since then, he has often visited and sent people to send rice and clothes, treating the young man as if he had gone out.

In this way, time flies like an arrow. From when Jia Fu met him at the back mountain of the Golden Buddha Temple when he was six years old, thousands of days have passed quietly at his fingertips like flowing water.

She and her brother You’an, childhood sweethearts, have a peaceful time.

This year is the thirteenth year of Zhaoping. Jiafu is thirteen years old, and the branch of cardamom is just beginning to blossom. He is also sixteen years old, and he has grown into a handsome and elegant young man.

I remember that when he was young, when his father took her to see him, Jiafu liked to follow him the most, calling him “Brother Youan” and “Brother Youan”. She would follow him wherever he went, even if Doing nothing, watching him reading and writing in front of the window, after watching for a long time, I didn’t get bored, and didn’t want to leave.

Later, she grew up and realized that he was her future prince. After she knew that she was shy, she no longer looked for him like a young girl. But in the bottom of her heart, she always remembered him. Sometimes when he came to Zhen’s house, she would Hiding in the dark, looking at him quietly, even if you see him from a distance, a heart is full of sweetness, and the deer can’t stop it.

The father said that when she got married, he married her and Brother Youan and let them marry.

This year, at the age of sixteen, he was going to participate in the autumn test. Because of the importance of the matter, Jiafu’s father canceled the original plan to go to sea and decided to stay at home until he finished the autumn test.

What Uncle Zhen didn’t expect was that his life was saved because of this temporary change plan.

A few months later, the fleet of another family that had previously agreed to go to sea encountered an unpredictable storm and waves when it was going somewhere in the open sea. The sailors on the ship who were lucky enough to be rescued had no survivors.

When the news came, Uncle Zhen was sad, but also thankful that he had escaped in this way.

If he had also gone out to sea at that time, whether he could come back now is really unknown.

Uncle Zhen escaped a catastrophe and waited until You Anqiu’s trial was over. In November, good news came.

He was mid-autumn exam and became the youngest person in Quanzhou’s history.

The Quartet continued to congratulate guests, and the Zhen family was also smiling all day long.

In the spring of the following year, Xiao Youan entered the Beijing Chunwei Test again. It was precisely after more than ten years that the northern situation began to be turbulent again. The emperor made the world judges to use this as the theme of the strategy. His essays were written into the inside, reasonable and well-founded, and they can be regarded as a strategy for victory in the temple. After the emperor finished reading, he was overjoyed and knew that the person who wrote this article was only seventeen years old this spring. He became more surprised and couldn’t wait, so he immediately called him into the hall to see him.

This year, Xiao Lie has been emperor for more than ten years, nearly forty years old.

When he first saw this young boy named Xiao Youan, the emperor was stunned.

He recognized it at a glance. The seventeen-year-old man in front of him was the same young man who had mentioned himself in a dream many years ago.

Even though he has not yet grown to look like the young man in his dreams, his facial features are already extremely similar.

Especially those bright, unforgettable eyes are exactly the same, he will never admit his mistakes!

Xiao Lie was shocked. After he left the dynasty, he summoned the young man alone in the Yushufang, and asked him in detail about his life. After learning that he was an orphan, he grew up in a monastery since he was a child.

Empress Pei knew the strange dream that her husband had experienced.

Over the years, she has also often dreamed. In the dream, she also had another child. She wanted to see that child clearly, but there was always a cloud of mist in front of her. I’m sorry.

At this moment, when she saw this young man, for some reason, a sad and happy feeling slowly grew in her heart, as if he was the long-lost son in her dream, and her tears could not be controlled. He came out of his eyes, went personally, and helped him up.

There is no disagreement, this seventeen-year-old boy, Jindian Chuanxu, the high school champion.

Once the list was unveiled, the world knew it. The news that the son-in-law of the Zhen family, who had been ridiculed behind the back, got the top pick, soon spread to Quanzhou. The Zhen family was as lively as the New Year. Uncle Zhen personally set off firecrackers outside the gate, posted a happy couplet, and people who came to the door to congratulate him, from morning to night, flowed in endlessly, almost crossing the threshold of the Zhen family.

Wife is expensive by husband, so overnight, she has become the most envied lucky person in everyone’s eyes.

However, as she waited for his return, some rumors slowly began to spread in Quanzhou City.

It is said that the emperor greatly appreciated him and entrusted him with a heavy responsibility. He became a young man, soaring to the sky, and his future is boundless.

It is also said that in the capital, there are officials who are of the right age to marry a daughter, or they trust someone, or speak in person, and they all want to recruit him as their son-in-law.

So some people said that the young man is not what he used to be. Now he has jumped to the dragon gate, but the Zhen family is only a merchant family. The young man is afraid that he will abandon the Zhen family’s family and will not return in the future.

Such rumors spread more and more, and finally even the Zhen family knew about it.

The parents were very annoyed, and even more afraid of their daughter’s sadness, Jia Fu laughed, not only so, but comforted her parents.

From the first moment he appeared in front of her, Jia Fu had a deep trust in him.

She trusts him completely, and is convinced that even if she is separated from him by thousands of mountains and rivers, she is destined to be destined, a red thread will tie him to herself.

When she was six years old, the red rope brought him to her side.

Her brother You An, whether it is a poor scholar in the Golden Buddha Temple or the now famous scholar, he will definitely come back to marry him, and Jiafu is convinced of this.

Her total trust was rewarded.

In the autumn of this year, the poor boy who used to live in the ancient temple flew up and returned to his hometown. The news spread and caused a sensation throughout the city. Countless people crowded into the streets just to see the graceful demeanor of the boy champion. On that day, he rode into the city and went straight to Zhen’s house. Still a stone’s throw away, he got off his horse and walked to the door of Zhen’s house. He respectfully paid the son-in-law’s salute to the uncle Zhen who came out to welcome him. Many rumors are self-defeating. Everyone says that Uncle Zhen is not only doing good business. For many years, if you have the blessing of running a boat, you are also superior in choosing a son-in-law. When the young man was poor, he rushed to make a marriage contract. In today’s position, how can the Zhen family become their son-in-law?

In the second year, Jiafu performed the gift of 笄笄. At the age of fifteen, he got his wish and finally married her brother You An.

The lotus brocade, fragrant and charming, in front of the jade hall, the love is like water. The swaying flower candles reflected a pair of cuddling figures in the brocade.

“Brother Youan, when I first met you when I was a child, I felt familiar. Have I met you somewhere before?”

The little bride stretched out a jade arm, hugged her beloved boy Lang Jun’s waist, opened her eyes, and asked him curiously.

This feeling has been haunting her for a long time, and finally I can ask questions tonight.

He stared at her still blushing and charming, smiles gradually poured out of his eyes, smiling without answering, and finally he hugged her into his arms, and blocked her questioning little mouth with a kiss.

He gave up all his predecessors, came here alone, and accompany her to grow up slowly, just to wait for this day.

He wants to marry her as his wife, white heads with her, guard her, and make her worry-free and safe in this life.

He and her in another life are living happily together, and in this life, he and she will do the same.

(Finish)
