My enemies became my companions

Chapter 353 Little Paper Boat (Two in One)

Her breath was as fragrant as orchid, and her beautiful eyes became more and more hazy, like the smoke waves passing through the water. Her body began to tremble slightly without her knowing when, and her full and round breasts rose and fell under the square collar and half-sleeve Korean-style dress that reached her waist.

The nun's lustful look reminded Chen Yi of the scene when she sat on his face not long ago.

Korean women often have beautiful hair.

Chen Yi's throat was slightly dry.

All the women who know him know that he is not the kind of person who can remain calm when a woman makes him beautiful. Instead, he is obsessed with sex.

What's more, although Concubine Dong is not as good as Yin Weiying, the one she can be compared with is Yin Weiying after all.

After putting down her burden as a nun, Concubine Dong, who believed that beauty is nothing, had become as charming as silk.

How could he, a captain of a thousand households, endure such a test?

dong dong!

There were two knocks on the door, and Chen Yi, who was about to move closer, suddenly sat up straight and woke up.

"Tea is ordered."

"Wait for half an incense stick." Chen Yi responded, looked at Concubine Dong, and subconsciously said: "Master Jueyin, this seems... against Buddhism. Are all Goryeo nuns like this?"

A night of spring is worth a thousand gold coins, and Chen Yi naturally understands this.
But if Concubine Dong imitates Min Ming and sets the trap at point B, then she will be the one who gets hurt.

Chen Yi said slowly: "What's more, your words about form being empty are just to comfort yourself. Could it be that Buddhism is against the law of one's original mind?

You must know that there is no law outside of the mind."

Comfort yourself...

Concubine Dong wanted to say something, but she didn't know where to start.

Her cheeks were flushed and she was speechless. Those words "form is emptiness" were just to comfort herself. Now that Chen Yifu had exposed it, she understood it instantly.

If you really don't care, if you really treat your body as a stinking skin bag, I'm afraid you would have asked for the detoxification long ago.

Concubine Dong was a lawyer who practiced Buddhist precepts, and she took the Buddhist precepts very seriously. Now that this man was refutating her with Buddhist teachings, she didn't know how to respond.

No answer, no answer...

But the efficacy of Yuchun ointment is

It was getting more and more intense, as if ants were crawling under my skin.

But before Concubine Dong could speak, Lin Wanheng pushed the door open and walked in after saying "Come in".

This forced Concubine Dong to retreat again.

She sat on the futon, looking calm and composed. When she saw Lin Wanhang walk in, she nodded slightly and said, "Hello, Madam."

Lin Wanheng bowed to her. Previously, Chen Yi had roughly told her about the origins of Master Jueyin. It was nothing more than that he met a nun by chance in a dilapidated temple, they had a very pleasant conversation, and they became deeply connected with Buddhism. Such things were extremely common not only in reality but also in storybooks.

The young lady came in and placed a bowl of tea in front of Lawyer Jueyin. Then she pulled a chair and sat next to Chen Yi, holding another bowl of tea in her hand and placed it in front of Chen Yi.

After Chen Yi hesitated for a moment, he saw Lin Wanhang smiling and took the tea.

She brought him some tea, which reminded him of Yin Tingxue.

However, when Yin Tingxue served tea, she would stand upright in front of her and hold it high with both hands, looking like a complete concubine.

But it was different with Lin Wanheng. She sat next to him and handed him the tea, looking gentle and virtuous.

Lin Wanheng was quite interested in their conversation. She first asked them what Buddhism they were talking about. Then Concubine Dong suppressed her enthusiasm and started talking to them. Concubine Dong was born in Huangyue Temple and was a monk named Jueyin. She told Lin Wanheng everything she knew about Buddhist scriptures. Her series of witty remarks left not only Lin Wanheng but also Chen Yi stunned.

"Although the lawyer has hair, he is really well versed in Buddhist principles and can explain them more clearly than many old nuns who have cut off their hair of affliction."

Lin Wanheng exclaimed in admiration, clasped his hands together and bowed, then asked curiously:
"Then again, why would a lawyer practice Buddhism with his hair uncut?"

Concubine Dong chuckled and replied:
"Because the worries in my heart have been put down."

After Lin Wanheng came to her senses, she admired the common sense in the words. The two girls talked and laughed, and had a great time. Chen Yi could see that Lin Wanheng had a gentle personality and could get along well with anyone.

As they talked, the blush on Concubine Dong's face became much more intense, and her slender legs, which were once crossed like a lotus, were now strangely squeezed together, almost fitting perfectly.

Lin Wanheng also said "Huh" and asked hurriedly, "Lawyer, your face is so red."

“…Color is emptiness…” Concubine Dong’s voice trembled slightly, and she said wittily: “It was because Madam was accompanying her husband and she blushed, so she saw me blushing.”

As these words came out, Lin Wanheng's face really started to blush.

Chen Yi naturally couldn't let Lin Wanheng know that Lawyer Jueyin was poisoned by Yuchun Cream, so he said:

"Wanheng, when was the last time you entered the palace?"

Lin Wanheng turned around and was about to speak, but then she saw her blushing face reflected in his eyes, so she turned back and said with a sidelong glance, "Four or five days ago, the Queen Mother told me privately that if you come to the palace with me, you can go anytime."

"What if I go into the palace alone?" Chen Yi asked.

"It shouldn't be possible. The Empress Dowager said that she would never let you enter the palace alone again." Lin Wanheng recalled the scene at that time and still remembered the faint anger on Feng Yan.

Lin Wanheng, who had been a widow for a long time, would not know the reason.

The reason why Queen An made such a statement was entirely because Chen Yi was very proud at that time.

Chen Yi raised his chin with his fingertips, lowered his head and thought for a while before saying:
"Then you just need to take me to the inner city of the palace. I will leave a sword spirit on you, and you can come back with Xiuhe later."

....................................

....................................

Yin Tingxue sat outside the door for an unknown period of time. She was there as soon as Min Ming got up.

Quan Yin took a short nap and woke up halfway through. Then she felt uneasy for no reason and tossed and turned in her quilt for a long time, but still couldn't calm down.

When he stood up, the bright moon was still there, casting a shadow on the lonely person in the small courtyard. Yin Tingxue breathed in and out, trying to get rid of the uneasiness, but she couldn't get it out. She felt uncomfortable.

Because Chen Yi would press on her shoulders when he hugged her, normally she liked to sleep alone the most, but last night she was not used to the feeling without him.

Yin Tingxue did not sit on the doorstep all the time. She went back to the bedroom several times and tried to fall asleep, but she still could not fall asleep. In desperation, she lit a small lamp and prepared to read a book.

There are his comments in the pages.

Chen Yi also reads books. He has read a lot of the miscellaneous books he bought for Yin Tingxue. He would leave comments on the pages, with lines of small words falling in the blank spaces. Suddenly, Yin Tingxue saw a sentence.

[She read this page to me. I didn’t understand it at the time, but now when I think back on it, it still has an endless aftertaste.]

Yin Tingxue stroked the line of words for a long time, raised and lowered his shoulders, and exhaled gently.

The fingertips kept roaming and lingering.

This line of words seems to be more than just a line of words.

It also means the change she brought to him.

Whenever I think of this, there is always something indescribable flowing through my heart.

She took out the small box, opened it gently, and the paper flower appeared in front of her.

The paper flower was not big, only the size of her palm. Its outline was blurry under the oil lamp, and it glowed brightly. She remembered the days when they were boyfriend and girlfriend. That was the happiest day for her and Chen Yi in all these years.

Because after that day, Chen Yi became completely gentle and later promised her that he would apologize to her.

Yin Tingxue had been waiting for that day.

Given his temper, I don’t know how long he will be able to wait.

"Should I... mention this to him?"

Yin Tingxue murmured softly. With his soft-hearted personality, if she asked him directly, it would definitely backfire. Not only would she be bullied, but she also didn't know if he would take back what he said, so she never asked him directly.

Yin Tingxue thought for a while and came up with an idea.

She took out a piece of rice paper and folded it.

Chen Yi folded a paper flower for her, so she might as well fold something for him.

But she is not that good and can only fold paper boats.

Before folding the rice paper, she picked up the ink with her bare hands and left a short sentence on the paper.

That’s only five words.

Will he be happy if he accidentally opens it?
As Yin Tingxue thought about it, she started laughing to herself.

It will.

That was a sentence he really wanted to see...

After folding the paper boat, Yin Tingxue put it in the drawer, waiting for him to come back, or giving it to him during the Lantern Festival.

In the dark night, with candlelight shining brightly, the girl was thinking expectantly, and accidentally saw the sandalwood box in the drawer.

He bought a new hairpin some time ago.

The joy on Yin Tingxue's face faded a little. This hairpin was not for her, but for Sister Weiying.

Even if Chen Yi didn't say it to Yin Weiying, the little fox knew that he actually liked Sister Weiying quite a bit.

At that time, Yin Tingxue let out a breath, pinched the little paper boat, snapped the drawer shut, and never looked at it again.

And back to the present.

Yin Tingxue recalled what happened last night. She was still sitting on the doorstep and shrank back under Zhou Yitong's gaze.

"…You missed him?"

Zhou Yitang's voice was calm and peaceful.

Yin Tingxue hesitated for a moment, but still nodded slightly.

The one-armed woman narrowed her eyes slightly, and there seemed to be a flicker under her eyelids. I don't know what she was thinking about.

Yin Tingxue was worried that she would be entangled and jealous in the end. After all, she was someone else's disciple, so she had to respect her teacher and couldn't learn from Chen Zunming, so she explained in a low voice:
"I feel like he's gone to a very far place, as far as he can go."

It was originally just a careful explanation, but the speaker did not mean it and the listener took it seriously. Zhou Yitang's eyes flashed.

Today, Yin Tingxue has already established the foundation of clairaudience.

She is totally different from before.

Yin Tingxue was observing the one-armed woman's expression when she heard her ask seriously, "Did you hear it?"

"...I heard some... wind sounds, and he seemed to be sucked into somewhere." Yin Tingxue recalled and carefully described the situation at that time.

Zhou Yitang's expression suddenly changed. He counted with his fingers, his eyes became even colder, and he said without hesitation:
"Come with me and find him."

Yin Tingxue was stunned for a moment, but nodded quickly and said she wanted to pack some things.

When she left, she took the paper boat and the box of hairpins with her.

"I wonder what he's doing, what's going on?"

Yin Tingxue thought worriedly.

...............................

...............................

Walking along the avenue to the outside of Donghua Gate, Chen Yi looked around as he walked. He lived nearby and was very familiar with everything.

But every face here is a stranger.

Yin Weiying once said that in order to make an identical paper figure, the birth dates and horoscopes must match, which also means that there will basically be no paper figures of people you know here.

The horoscope of birth is often kept secret. In order to avoid being cursed by witchcraft, it will not even be recorded in the clan register.

In this secret realm, with Lin Wanheng accompanying him, the road to the palace is unobstructed.

Lin Wanheng sent Chen Yi to the inner court of the imperial palace, and saw that he wanted to go in with the nun on his own, so as to avoid being reluctant to leave.

She said, "You have finally disobeyed the Majesty's words this time. When you see the Majesty, I hope you will explain everything to her."

Chen Yi thought to himself that there would be no paper figure of the empress dowager here. Before the empress dowager came to Beijing, she had been staying in Luoyong City. If there really was a paper figure, the An family would not have suffered the tragedy of massacre and extermination of the entire family.

It’s just that Lin Wanheng has drunk the Forget-Your-Worry wine and has been brainwashed in this secret realm, so he doesn’t know it.

"I will be careful."

Chen Yi responded and was about to turn around and leave.

Lin Wanheng called him again: "Wait a minute."

Chen Yi stopped and saw Lin Wanheng took two steps forward, holding the belt with her delicate hands, pulling the clothes under the belt tight and tidying it up. It seemed like she was doing this for the first time, and when she accidentally touched the man's skin through the clothes, there was nothing on her face, but her ears were slightly red.

Chen Yi lowered his eyes slightly. This was the first time someone took care of his belt.

After finishing it, Lin Wanheng patted her and whispered, "I saw my mother do the same thing before. When I mentioned this to Xiuhe, she advised me to sort it out for you so that she could keep your heart in the Cui Mansion. She's really stupid, isn't she?"

"So stupid..." Chen Yi said, not knowing who he was talking about.

After a while, he sighed, forced a smile and said, "Okay, go back with Xiuhe quickly. Even with my sword intent, you should be careful along the way... Wait for me at home."

Lin Wanheng said "hmm" and turned around. He looked back two or three times when he left, and Chen Yi smiled at him every time.

Chen Yi sighed only when her figure disappeared from his sight.

"'Wait for me at home'... the donor and she are really...in love."

Concubine Dong's voice was faint.

Upon learning that Chen Yi did not have the antidote and refused to sacrifice himself to detoxify, Concubine Dong's voice began to take on a subtle hint of sarcasm.

With the natal paper figurine to share the burden, it would be possible to resist the effect of the Yuchun plaster, but the price would be high and some meridians would certainly be damaged.

But when it comes to using one's body to detoxify, Concubine Dong is now struggling between Buddhism and desire in her heart.

Detoxify with one's own body, Buddhism prohibits sex, so it should not be allowed...

But if it was done under duress, then it wouldn’t be against Buddhism, right?
Who made her, a Korean woman, live under someone else's roof, unable to control her own life, not to mention that he was her lover...

Chen Yi glanced at her.

Concubine Dong stood forward with one hand in a Zen single palm salute and said with a smile:

"Namo Avalokitesvara Bodhisattva... You and her seem to be in love, I wonder how your sweetheart would react if she saw you?"

Chen Yi responded calmly:
"At home, I always make the decisions."

This is really not a lie. Apart from his master Zhou Yitang, Chen Yi has never been afraid of anyone.

The little fox is easy to bully. Dayin didn't dare to say much. Min Ming is a maid now. As long as Zhou Yitong doesn't know, nothing will happen.

As the saying goes, to catch a thief you need stolen goods, and to catch an adulterer you need both. And everyone knows who can catch a thief and who can catch an adulterer.
