Chapter 633 Everything seems like it used to be

Chapter 633 Everything seems to be the past

Qin Lei nodded and said nothing, so he followed the little eunuch into the carriage. After entering the imperial city, he did not continue to go north to the palace, but turned left and entered the eastern palace secret residence of Emperor Tianyou.

The carriage stopped at the back door, and the little eunuch pushed the door and invited the prince to enter. When Qin Lei saw it, he saw a man, with ruins all over his eyes, a yard with dark varnish, weeds and wild flowers everywhere, like a legendary haunted place.

He couldn't help but take a deep breath and said, "Didn't you go the wrong way?"

The little eunuch didn't know how to answer, and stood there at a loss.

"Prince, this is Shuxiang Pavilion." Shi Gan reminded softly.

Qin Lei couldn't help but be stunned, pointed at the dilapidated and deserted eyes and said, "How could it be like this?"

The little eunuch came to his senses and replied in a low voice: "I was burned by the Grand Marshal a few years ago."

Qin Lei was tactful and stopped asking questions.

The little eunuch led Qin Lei out of the yard of Shuxiang Pavilion, and went to the outside of the study room of the Prince's Mansion, and said respectfully: "Your Majesty said that when the prince comes, you only need to go in, no need to inform me." Then he retreated aside.

Qin Lei entered the study room, but saw no figure. He only heard the sound of water behind the high bookshelf. He couldn't help but slow down his breathing. After walking slowly to the bookshelf, he turned over a screen and saw his second brother wearing a light blue casual dress, sitting leisurely beside a small wooden table. The table was still the small and exquisite tea set with a wide variety of utensils.

The small copper pot on the table had already begun to emit a lingering heat. Through this changing white mist, Qin Lei suddenly felt a familiar feeling. He remembered that they had done the same thing at the same place about five years ago.

Five years later, everything seemed to be repeated, and everything seemed to have not changed, but the identity and mood of the two were already very different.

Those who invite guests to have tea have been promoted from the unpopular prince to the king of a country. And just today, his serious troubles have been completely overwhelmed. I think this young Majesty should breathe a sigh of relief.

The guests who came to drink tea had already completed the transformation from a trembling short prince to a prince and a prince, and the great marshal. They were the real power faction of the Qin Dynasty.

In the eyes of ordinary people, these two young people should be proud, smile at each other, and then pretend to say, "Everything is not over yet, we still need to work hard."

But there was no trace of joy on the faces of the two, but they saw sorrow in each other's eyes... Victory belongs to the emperor's grandmother, and glory belongs only to her. What's the point of being happy about us?

The only thing that belongs to us is a series of difficult problems she left behind.

"Do it." Seeing Qin Lei standing by the screen in a daze, Emperor Tianyou smiled gently.

Qin Lei nodded and sat on the chair opposite his second brother. Then the water boiled, Qin Lei pushed the tea set over, Emperor Tianyou opened the empty teapot and poured the boiling water into the warm pot. Then he poured the water from the teapot into the purple sand shallow plate... Everything was as tacit as before, and he was not unfamiliar because of these years.

The emperor took out a white porcelain tea pot from under the small machine. The prince took off the bamboo lid, sniffed it lightly, and handed it to Qin Lei, saying, "Look at what kind of tea this is."

"The best silver needle white hair in Wuyi Mountain in Fujian Province, "Qin Lei smiled and said, "Everything is the same, and tea is the same."

Emperor Tianyou shook his head and smiled, "It's not the case, at least the bamboo tube has been replaced with a porcelain jar."

"It seems that the emperor has figured it out." Qin Lei chuckled.

"I'm very stupid. You can figure it out in a blink of an eye, but I have to go to three to five years." Emperor Tianyou looked at Qin Lei and said with a smile: "Why didn't you tell me at the beginning?"

"Drinking tea is the Tao." Qin Lei said seriously: "Since it is the Tao, there is no real right or wrong. You can do whatever you want in your heart. The Tao is the Tao."

"It sounds quite reasonable." Qin Ting shook his head and smiled, "It's just that it doesn't work, so I'd better understand it slowly." He then used a small copper spoon to scoop a spoonful of tea leaves into the teapot, but it was still only one spoonful.

Seeing Qin Lei's mouth twitching, Qin Ting couldn't help but say proudly: "Since you said you'd like to do whatever you want, then I still like to be more elegant." Obviously, he has already developed that making Kung Fu tea with tea leaves with mellow aroma will be better.

Qin Lei smiled bitterly and said, "It's not the first time I've done it when I lifted a stone to hit my own feet."

Qin Ting smiled and added three or five spoons of tea to the pot, and said with a smile: "It is not a way to treat guests even though he knows it is wrong." As he said that, he washed the dishes without any slightest breath of fireworks, poured tea and water. His actions were more extraordinary and more focused than before.

Qin Lei couldn't help but wonder, stretched out his middle and index fingers of both hands, took the teacup, but hung it in the air, not sending it to his mouth, but asked, "Brother, can you ask a question?"

The prince also picked up a cup, put it on his mouth, closed his eyes slightly, shook his head and tasted a sense of tranquility, and took a long time to take a sip, and said lightly: "Your heart is still very messy, but my heart has returned to peace."

Qin Lei pursed his lips and forced himself to hold back the question. He already knew how his second brother would answer him.

The two sat opposite each other without saying a word, Qin Ting drank the artistic conception in a cup; Qin Lei increased the burden on the bladder.

After drinking a pot of tea, Qin Ting put down the teacup and looked at Qin Lei calmly and said, "You once said: 'The Tao can be told, it is extraordinary, it is easy to understand the Tao in the world. It is very famous, it is very famous, it is ruthless but affectionate.' This sentence has bothered me for many years. After several ups and downs and repeated hardships, I really understood the meaning of this."

"What does it mean? Tell me quickly," Qin Lei said in surprise: "I don't even know it myself."

"You knew it first," Qin Ting said in a plain tone: "It's just that over the years, people are busy with civil affairs, and officials are getting bigger and bigger, and they have more and more things to do, and they have no intention of thinking about these things anymore."

"Indeed." Qin Lei had to nod and said, "I feel like I've been kidnapped. There are always all kinds of people who want to come to me for twelve hours a day, and I just want to deal with these things every day. At most, I will think about what to do in the future. I don't have time to look back and see if I have gone astray."

He said, laughed at himself and said, "It's useless to see it, because I was kidnapped, and it's not up to me to decide which direction I go."

"I said this, you are still attracted to me." Emperor Tianyou looked at Qin Lei with a smile on his face, and suddenly said, "You don't need to explain at all, because I didn't want to be this emperor anymore."

It was like someone ripping off his pants in public, Qin Lei's face suddenly turned red, but he couldn't say a word.

Qin Ting smiled slightly and poured a cup of tea for Qin Lei: "You have also said that the world is easy to understand, but it is hard to understand. In fact, it is really easy for people to see through the world." He sighed and said, "But it is too difficult to understand the great way."

"Why do you need to realize the truth?" Qin Lei asked softly: "What is actually quite empty."

"Why are you right? " Emperor Tianyou couldn't help but laugh and said in silence: "So you don't believe anything."

"I actually believe in the truth." Qin Lei shook his head and said, "But the truth of heaven is too slim, and it is not something that we ordinary people can verify."

"It is not an illusory thing," Emperor Tianyou shook his head and said, "It does exist. If you can obtain the Tao, you can understand all the mysteries in this world, see through all disguises, and understand all knowledge, and all things in the world can be mastered!" He also added to the Tao of God: "Those who reach this state will regard all things as nothing, without worry, without joy or sorrow, and the joy of joy always resides in your heart."

"Will you become a fool?" Qin Lei smiled bitterly and said, "You should be happy when you encounter happy things, and you should be sad when you encounter unhappy things. This is a normal person."

"Just think I'm not normal." Qin Li shook his head slowly and said a shocking sentence: "I decided to abdicate the throne to you at the right time, and then concentrate on seeking the truth."

This is really hard to answer, because Qin Lei's covetous desire for the artifact was like a lice on a bald man's head, so he couldn't tell him too clearly, so he would be too hypocritical. He had to say embarrassedly: "How can you abandon the throne that others dream of is like a worn-out clog?"

"A common man is innocent, but he is guilty of possessing a treasure." Qin Ting said lightly: "I hope to live some ordinary life and don't want to be the target of others anymore." Qin Lei felt embarrassed again.

"I'm not talking about you." I noticed Qin Lei's discomfort, Qin Ting explained: "It's just because of Li Hun's feelings."

"I know." Qin Lei smiled and said, "My second brother never touches the cheapest thing on his mouth."

Qin Ting smiled faintly and said, "But before this, I have to complete a big thing, and at least I can leave my name in history."

Qin Lei knew what he was talking about, and said sincerely: "This is not easy to do, you will be hated to death."

"It doesn't matter," Qin Ting smiled and said, "Since you can't make people love me, it's good to make people hate me."

"Why do you have to?" Knowing that he had made up his mind, Qin Lei was silent for a moment, and finally couldn't help but say, "You have received this for others."

"As long as you don't live up to me," Qin Ting smiled faintly, "Those who know me say I am worried, and those who don't know me say what I want. Brother, since you understand what I want, don't say more." As he said that, he clapped his hands and stood up and said, "Let me do a big fight!"

Qin Lei stood up with a serious expression and said, "How can you let me love you?"

"It's okay," patted his arm and said, "When I can't hold it anymore, you can continue to push it."

Looking at his brother deeply, Qin Lei found that he had never known him before. He nodded silently and turned around and left.

Qin Ting smiled and watched Qin Lei leave until he disappeared from his sight. He gently packed up the tea set...
