Chapter Eighty-Five: Grace
"The Spring Festival, say goodbye to the old and welcome the new. In the past year, Haotian Temple has been loyal to the iron courage, and Haotian should know that he will be rewarded with a special reward: 3,000 horses of immortal brocade, 3,000 catties of spiritual rice, and 100 spiritual pills. Bow down and give thanks!"
Xuan Cang did not immediately kneel down and kowtow, but looked at Li Yangqiu, and said in his heart: Old man, are you dazzled, are you wrong......? Three thousand, how much is that?
Li Yangqiu's face sank. "Miaozong-sama, thank you!"
"Divine servant Xuancang and all the gods of Haotian Temple bow to thank Haotian for the grace of the gods!" Xuancang knelt down and kowtowed.
The rest of the Haotian Temple followed Xuancang and knelt down and kowtowed. "Xie Hao's Heavenly Grace. ”
Tian Xiaoxue held a gift box and solemnly put it in Xuancang's hand. "This is a hundred pills of tonic elixir, and the holy woman specially told him not to make any mistakes. I have been holding it, I don't dare to slack off, and ask the temple master to check it on the spot. ”
That day, the queen made a big fuss in the palace, and Lin Xiaoxian found that Tian Xiaoxue was transferred. When I asked afterwards, I said that Tian Xiaoxue had been transferred to a summer palace. That's a shame. Lin Xiaoxian opened her mouth to ask the emperor for it, and transferred Tian Xiaoxue back.
Xuancang opened the brocade box, and there were ten small tips neatly placed in the box.
Each bag is shining with a lustrous brilliance, and it is not ordinary at first glance. In the bag, there are indeed ten pills of tonic elixir. Ten bags, exactly 100 grains.
"Okay! Please convey your gratitude on behalf of the old man. Xuan Cang's voice trembled a little with excitement.
This annual reward is even more abundant than God's grace!
Surprise!
What a surprise!
"It's really fairy brocade! Three thousand horses! God, can we all wear fairy brocade?" the little god servant jumped and cheered.
There are a large number of gods in Haotian Temple in the world, and three thousand immortal brocades are naturally not enough for one person, but if it is only awarded to the god envoy level, one piece per person is more than enough.
"This saint is so generous!" Yuan Qing admired.
Dao An nodded and said, "In the end, I have been a princess and a concubine, and doing things is atmospheric." ”
No one thought Dao'an's words were wrong. Most of the people up and down the Haotian Temple believe it.
It's just that everyone's mood is a little heavy.
Although the little girl named Lin Xiaoxian is not as atmospheric as she is now, she is a real hero.
Quite a cute little girl, it's a pity.
Damn the people of the True Alliance!
Li Yangqiu sent the Haotian New Year Festival reward to Haotian Temple, returned to Taixue, and before he could sit down, news came that someone from the palace had given a reward.
It was Lin Jiarong who came, bringing a pair of female envoys, palace orders and guards, and pulling a cart of gift boxes.
"Haotian gives each of the teachers of Taixue a box of spiritual rice, and the oracle: the peach and plum do not speak, and the next is its own. ”
The teachers of Taixue love Lingmi, but they care more about oracles. Taoli is self-explanatory, which is a compliment to their noble character and respect. That's a compliment!
After the handover, Lin Jiarong took out two boxes of spiritual rice separately and explained, "Lord Li, the holy woman wants to ask you for a favor." This box is for her assistant Wan Yizhen, and this box is for Li Wenxuan, the assistant of the Fourth Highness. The saint said that with their status, they could not afford to be rewarded by Haotian, this was her private gift, and Lord Lao Li forwarded it. ”
When Li Yangqiu heard that his grandson also had it, he was immediately so happy that he couldn't see his teeth and eyes, and responded one after another.
A box of spiritual rice is five catties.
Taixue teachers, all smiling. I thought that the Empress Dowager Qingdai would also learn too much about Ling rice dumplings, but the poor and stingy, there were only about 100 of them every time, which was not enough at all.
Lin Xiaoxian didn't forget the Mu family and her Lin Wanxian Academy of Sciences, and they also rewarded the Lingmi gift box.
The Mu family is the only one who understands. The next day, he returned the gift and sent a batch of jewels into the palace to be presented to the saint.
The others, all of them only went in and couldn't leave, which made Lin Xiaoxian very depressed.
Courtiers, Lin Xiaoxian can't be rewarded, that is the emperor's territory, but he can reward officials and celebrities.
Officials and dependents are celebrating at the palace ball.
Freesia came in with a group of beautiful little gods holding trays one by one.
"Haotian gave all the ladies and ladies a fairy silk flower, and the oracle: the group of flowers competes for beauty, and each shows its beauty. ”
Although they are all flowers, the colors and flowers are different, and the peony and small plum blossom are very different from each other.
Looking at the faint glow on the flowers, who doesn't want a big one? If you change it, you can make a lot of small tricks.
High-ranking officials and wives are all gearing up, and it must be who is the most official and who is the biggest.
As a result, Canglan actually said: The meaning of the saint, children are the future of the empire, and the older ladies are about past the age of loving flowers, so let the younger ones pick first.
The little girl doesn't have so many ideas, she can take whatever she likes, so she won't care about the big flowers and the small ones. When I took it back, I asked my family to put it on and smile happily.
They started like this, which made the scheming women embarrassed to take big flowers. It's a big one, and it doesn't look good on the head door, right?
was lively, Mu Lingyu suddenly threw the flower on the ground and stepped on it a few times! "She's a bad woman! I don't want bad women's things!" She realized that this flower was actually given by the saint.
The scene was awkward for a while.
The little princess hurriedly picked up Mu Lingyu and took him away.
Everyone laughed and continued to dance and feast, but they didn't see it.
Lin Xiaoxian didn't pay much attention to Canglan when she heard Canglan talk about it. Mu Lingyu's personality is very much like a queen, and the number of stages is too low to pose a threat.
On the 28th, the emperor invited models from all walks of life, prime ministers and officials of the Ministry of Rites to accompany him, and gave commendations and rewards to these models of the times. From scientists to sanitation workers, there are hundreds of people.
Regardless of whether the selection is fair and impartial, these people are civilians in various industries and cannot be wrong.
Lin Xiaoxian rewarded each of them with a piece of pure Peiyuan cake to nourish their bodies and keep them healthy.
"Hao Tian gave you a piece of immortal cake as a model of the times. Oracle: Be conscientious and keep up the good work. ”
When the models heard that it was a fairy cake, they were excited, but they were not too excited. Everyone understands and thinks it should be a small biscuit with a small amount of spiritual rice. After the broadcast of "I Am Not Sister Lin in Red Mansions", the people knew a lot about fairy food. Immortal grain is so precious, the emperor can't eat a few bites of pure immortal grain biscuits, right?
The emperor recognized it at a glance, and suddenly his heart, liver, spleen, lungs, and kidneys were in pain!
If he can come up with so many pure Peiyuan cakes, the queen's trouble will be solved immediately, and both Mu Xiuyu and Mu Zhanyu will be released by Haotian Temple.
The corners of the prime minister's eyes twitched.
Although the officials of the Ministry of Rites did not know about the pure Peiyuan cake, they would observe the words and looks, and when they saw the reaction of the emperor and the prime minister, they immediately knew that this was a good thing that could make the emperor and the prime minister also greedy.
An adult of the Ministry of Rites immediately said cheekily: "The chief priest of Canglan, those who see it have a share." Will we be lucky enough to get a piece?"
Freesia was in a dilemma. The saint gave her a hundred and a few pieces. The extra is for the emperor.
Only then did the models of the times know that this fairy cake is not simple, and they immediately divided it cleanly. Some people ate three bites at once, and some people carefully took the paper bag, quietly hid it in their pockets, and kept covering it for fear of being stolen.
The emperor suddenly figured it out and called the official's name. "You old horseman, flash aside. This is pure Peiyuan cake, which is the most nourishing and nourishing fairy food in Haotian. Strengthens the body and greatly improves immunity. I've only eaten two pieces. Even if there are many, it won't be your turn. Heroes of the times, this cake is purchased in large quantities by the hospital, 200,000 yuan a piece, and Tong Su is not bullied. ”
The man who had just swallowed the biscuit almost put his hand in his mouth and pulled it out. Well, 200,000 taels of bites to eat?
But there are also those who are smart and don't care about money, and they have already hidden it and are going to take it home to eat, and now they immediately realize that they may not be able to bring it out of the palace, so they immediately take it out and eat it on the spot.
As soon as you eat the pure Peiyuan cake, there will be no obvious reaction.
But in the next half month, these people will slowly change a lot.
The old man's gray hair turned black, and various geriatric diseases were significantly reduced, and he looked to be ten years old.
Younger people are more energetic, with smooth and delicate skin that looks refreshed.
There are also those who are short of money, and they really sold them to the Tai Hospital, got 200,000 cash and made a fortune.
This is much more than the certificate of merit and the bonus of 10,000 yuan given by the emperor.
As soon as this matter was exposed in the news, how many people were gearing up and ready to work hard and hard in the coming year.
On the 29th, there were a few more priests in the shrine who wanted to return to Haotian Temple, and they didn't want to serve the saint anymore.
The only good thing here in the shrine is that you can eat half a bowl of spiritual rice every day, but if you suffer a lot of grievances for this spiritual rice, it is not worth it. Besides, Haotian Temple has also received a lot of spiritual rice rewards, and when you return to the temple, you can also eat spiritual rice.
There are too many rules for saints. If there is a pleat on the clothes, it will be criticized, and it will be ordered to be ironed.
Fusheng approved them one by one, and allowed them to go back to Haotian Temple immediately.
Lin Xiaoxian called Canglan and the rest of the gods and servants to come to her and said, "I can't rub sand in the eyes of this palace. If you want to stay, do as I do, and make no mistake. If it's wrong, I'll be punished. At that time, it will not be as easy as returning to Haotian Temple. Now I'll give you one last chance, and if you want to go, let's go. ”
After half a minute of silence, an emaciated priest came out and said, "I'm not in good health, I'm afraid there will be a problem." Please allow me to return to Haotian Temple. ”
"Exactly!" said Fusheng.
Then two more people came out and asked for permission to return to Haotian Temple.
"Accurate!"
Lin Xiaoxian looked at Canglan. "Canglan, I have a lot of trouble for you, why don't you leave?"
Freesia smiled bitterly. "The saint always needs someone to serve her, either me or someone else. I have a bad cultivation talent, and I am also stupid, but I can serve by the saint's side and be taught by the saint's daughter, and I am fortunate to have three lives. ”
Lin Xiaoxian said: "Now there are many people, you are still working hard, and in the future, there will be fewer people, and your things will only be more." ”
Freesia knelt down. "For Haotian, Canglan is not afraid of being tired. Haotian Temple has the grace of nurturing and cultivating freesia, and freesia received the temple order, was loyal to her duties, and did not dare to pick fat and thin, hide laziness and slackness. The holy woman can rest assured that Canglan will serve Her Royal Highness wholeheartedly. ”
The remaining eight people, including Qian Ning and Shui Yun, also knelt down. "I Qianning (Shui Yun) (Early Summer) (...... When you are ordered to enter the shrine, you must be faithful to your duties and serve the saint with all your heart!"
Lin Xiaoxian raised her hand. "Get up. ”
Fusheng said, "If you want to go back, go and pack your things and go back immediately." If you want to stay, go to work!"
"Yes. "The gods are commanded to go down.
Freesia stayed and stood beside her, serving tea.
Lin Xiaoxian said with a smile: "Monk, there are so many people missing, I'm afraid there are not enough people." Do you have any cronies, hurry up and insert them. ”
Fusheng said, "You don't have much to do, and I can do it alone." It doesn't matter if they're gone. I don't want any instability around you. You don't need the smart people around you looking at the mountain. ”
Lin Xiaoxian said to Canglan: "Canglan, he scolded you for being stupid. ”
Canglan Wan'er said: "My master also said that the smarter you are, the better, and to be a god of Haotian Temple, you have to be stupid." If you are too smart, you will inevitably have too many thoughts, and if you have too many thoughts, you will not be able to calm down. ”
"You have a good master!" Lin Xiaoxian praised.
Because of the matter between the empress and the eldest princess, the royal family and Haotian Temple were still deadlocked, and Lin Xiaoxian did not go to the grand Chinese New Year's Eve court ball of the year.
Lin Xiaoxian saw on the news that the first dance of the Chinese New Year's Eve court dance party was led by Mu Yanyu and Han Yiyun. Under the extremely short news footage, Mu Yanyu hugged Han Yiyun and circled gracefully, beautiful as a picture.
It's not good news.
However, today is the first day of the Lunar New Year, a new beginning, and Lin Xiaoxian decided to maintain a good mood.
After dressing up, Lin Xiaoxian sat upright, waiting for Canglan to lead the only eight remaining priests in the Divine Palace to kowtow to her.
Lin Xiaoxian could only call out the names of a few of them before, but this time, she called one by one and came to ask her name, age, how she entered Haotian Temple, and what she was good at.
Yuanshuang, early summer, ice lotus, autumn, calligraphy and painting, Qingping, are all orphans. It is a technical talent selected from orphanages in various places and specially trained to serve the saints.
Yuan Shuang learned clothing fashion, early summer learned makeup, Binghe was a hairdresser, Yingqiu special chef, Qingping and calligraphy and painting were miscellaneous, and they could do anything.
The calligrapher and painter joked to himself: "Qingping and I are specially trained to be maids for you! ”
But Qianning and Shui Yun are not. Because of their outstanding cultivation talents, they were invited by Haotian Temple and voluntarily broke off their relatives to enter the temple.
Shui Yun's parents were willing to give her up because of Shui Yun's future. said that it was broken, but always found some excuse to visit her often.
Qianning really broke off her relationship with her family and hasn't been in contact for ten years.
After this questioning, Lin Xiaoxian understood. Most of those who went were martial gods with cultivation talents, and they had higher pursuits, and they were not willing to be left behind.
Among the rest of the people, except for Qian Ning and Shui Yun, who have cultivation above the prefecture level and have high combat effectiveness, the others are not combatants. Fighting is also able to fight, and the attack power is not high.
Lin Xiaoxian said: "Since you have all decided to stay, I am afraid that we will be together for many years in the future." My rules are still those rules, and I won't say anything about treating you as sisters. You guys do it for yourselves. ”
"Follow the teachings of the Holy Maiden. We will do everything in our power to serve Her Highness wholeheartedly. "Freesia took the lead, and everyone expressed their loyalty one by one.
