Chapter 15: The Jade Spring
"There are so many people in the palace," Zhang Zhaohua said, "what kind of water do they drink?"
"Well water," Gao Chi said: "There is well water in the house, and it is also left from Yuquan Mountain, but it is dark river water." Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info"Yo, it's groundwater -- groundwater quality should be better."
According to Gao Chi, before the Yuan Dynasty, the feng shui of Beiping was not complete, and the ancestor of the Yuan dynasty ordered Liu Bingzhong to survey the feng shui, and he dug a river to divert water, and guided the water of Yuquan Mountain into the capital as a dragon vein, and participated in the water supply system of the entire city. Because this water is drawn from the west, the five elements belong to the west, so it is called "Jinshui River". The Jinshui River is in the northwest section of Beiping, almost parallel to the upper reaches of the Tonghui River, and flows in the southeast direction, around the ruins of the imperial palace of the Yuan Dynasty, flows through a "U" shape, and finally joins the Taiye Pool.
Liu Bingzhong found the direction of the eastward flow of the groundwater of Yuquan Mountain through the trend of the mountain, and took this as the context to find the "Longquan" downstream, and the main point of the Taiye Pond was determined, and decided to build the "Daming Palace" of the Fengtian Temple in the Yuan Dynasty to build a palace room.
He said that this place is the dragon's vein, there is a dragon's lair here, how to prove it - in the east of the Taiye Pond about seven or eight hundred meters away, there is a well, the Yuan Dynasty is the well water for the emperor to drink, this is the "dragon spring" that Liu Bingzhong can reach. Because no matter how dry the weather is, the well water does not rise or fall, and the water quality is clear and sweet.
When the dynasty built the Yanwang Mansion, Master Daoyan looked at the location of the Longquan Well, and knew the direction of the flow of the groundwater in Beiping, he pointed to a place in the house along the hydrological vein, saying that there must be well water here, and the excavation was very shallow and the water flowed more than once, and it was indeed the place where the dragon vein flowed, that is to say, the well water in the Yanwang Mansion, the spring vein originated from Yuquan Mountain.
"Since it's all water from Yuquan Mountain," Zhang Zhaohua lightly smeared a layer of powder on his face: "Isn't it over drinking well water, why do you spend so much effort to get water from the source?"
Gao Chi sat beside her, turned her face over, and said, "That's different, there is a little other water flowing into the Jinshui River, and the water quality is not pure, not to mention how can the well water be compared to living water?"
"Come on, come on, sit down," Gao Chi picked up the brush and dipped it in a little powder, and said carefully: "Half of the green moth, Yang Xiao Dongshi, willow leaves, and the two Spring Mountains are like barriers." ”
I only heard the "bang" there, it turned out that Danniang, who was grinding the eyebrow stone on the side, pressed a small piece of stone out, and the eyebrow stone in the house was not the commonly used Qingque Dai, Luozi Dai or Tong Dai in the south of the Yangtze River, but the eyebrow stone that was a specialty of Beiping Mentougou Fat Yantang.
"Oops," Danniang leaned over to pick up the eyebrow stone, lowered her head and said, "I'm not careful!"
Zhang Zhaohua saw that her shoulders seemed to be shaking slightly, and she didn't know what was going on, she hesitated, but she was soon upset and irritable by Gao Chi's unprofessional methods.
"How did you draw it," Zhang Zhaohua shouted: "Draw one stroke in the east and one in the west, did you deliberately draw a flower cat on my face?"
"Don't move, don't move," Gao Chi didn't let her look in the mirror, but swore and said: "I painted it well, the temples are like a knife, the eyebrows are like peaks, the hills overlap, and the clouds are green." ”
"Eyebrows are like peaks?" Zhang Zhaohua didn't believe it even more: "Can you draw three peaks or five mountain eyebrows like Danniang, or do you say, it's not the peak of the mountain, but the bee of the bee, you drew me a swarm of bees!"
The room was laughing.
Zhang Zhaohua obviously felt Gao Chi's hand holding the pen tremble twice, and it was estimated that he had drawn his eyebrows. Sure enough, Gao Chi wiped it with his thumb: "What are you talking about, shouldn't you ask your husband in a low voice, isn't there any depth of thrush?"
Zhang Zhaohua knew that once the eyebrows were drawn, they would have to be washed off with water, and then re-applied makeup and re-applied the eyebrows, otherwise the black powder and white makeup powder were mixed together and it was very ugly, but she said disgusting words, but she didn't push people away to wash her face.
"What kind of eyebrows am I, what am I drawing?" asked Gao Chi.
Danniang seemed to be racking her brains next to her, and said, "What the prince painted should be the moon eyebrows." Don't look at the eyebrows, just look at the moon, the moon palace axe marks are missing after repair. These two eyebrows are drawn...... It's like the laurel tree that Wu Gang felled. ”
Now Zhang Zhaohua gasped, what eyebrows, called Wu Gang Fa Gui?
After he finished the last stroke, Zhang Zhaohua couldn't wait to take a look in the mirror, and sure enough, the eyebrows were painted miserably, Danniang said not to look at the eyebrows, just look at the moon It turns out to be this meaning, the knife splits the axe in general, and other people's thrushes are not complete where the eyebrows are insufficient, but his thrush is a good eyebrow that is missing three or four.
"What are you drawing!" Zhang Zhaohua shouted.
Seeing that the time was too late, Danniang made up a few strokes on her eyebrows, and finally could see it, but she still felt weird, thinking that she just painted two strokes lightly on weekdays, but today she painted horizontally and vertically, but the painting was weird, and I don't know how to attract people's eyes after going out.
She and Gao Chi came out of the Shizi Institute, passed through the treasure house and walked to the central hall, and they could always meet Gao Xu on the way. He was already as slender and handsome as an adult, and he was the tallest of the three princes. Whenever I met her on the road, I would smile at her with a frown.
Although such a smile always makes Zhang Zhaohua in a trance.
When I walked to the door of the middle hall, I realized that the princess went to the Cunxin Hall to share breakfast with King Yan, and it was obvious that Gao Xu came out of the Cunxin Palace, but he didn't tell them. Gao Chi went to Jishan, and Zhang Zhaohua went to Yongping's courtyard.
Yongping's yard seems to be the most chaotic one, you can hear the noise of the ears before you get closer, and after entering, you can see a bunch of palace maids panting and chasing the two small rabbits, and if you look closely, they are not unable to catch up, but deliberately drive the rabbits around to have fun.
It's also strange, this is chasing the two rabbits that were sent, it is said that they are the hares in the field, and they are much stronger than the rabbits when they retreat, and the two rabbits that are not so big run and jump up and down from the feet of people, and occasionally stop and sniff the smell, and bend down to go around under the root of the wall.
When these palace maids saw her coming, they stopped chasing her, but Yongping saw her and came to greet her.
"What's the matter with you driving this rabbit like a sheep?" asked Zhang Zhaohua.
"It's not this rabbit yet, don't sleep on the straw mat I got for her," Yongping said, "I went to the corner of the wall, and I can't run away with my front paws, but I can burrow." A few arches can dig out a hole, the fat body squeezed out of the hole, we are at night to prevent the cylinder and the courtyard wall, as soon as we hear the sound of the cracking, we know that this thing sneaked out of the house to make a hole. ”
"The three holes of the cunning rabbit, this rabbit digs a hole very quickly," Zhang Zhaohua said: "You really have to guard against it, otherwise you will break through the root of the wall." ”
"Carry it into the house," said Yongping, "and it will drill wherever there is a crack in it, and scratch it with something, and it will not come out, but it will knock over a large porcelain duster of mine." ”
That being said, it doesn't look like she doesn't like it.
"An Cheng came to me a while ago, and when he saw this thing, it was when the hair was dirty and he couldn't distinguish the primary color," Yongping said happily: "Just arched out of a new hole, and there was a pinch of yellow mud on the tail of the buttocks, which scared An Cheng, saying that it was like a weasel." ”
An Cheng and the county lord of Xianning are only eleven or twelve years old, and they are both quiet and don't talk much, they can be said to be like weasels, it can be seen that this rabbit really doesn't need to be raised, it is simply going to turn the sky upside down.
