Chapter 3 Grange View

It's not summer yet, but it's already getting hot. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info Chu Shuhuang woke up from a nap, got up and sat on the edge of the bed, and the palace maids Qinghe and Qingliu pushed the door in when they heard the movement: "The princess is awake, is she still tired?" ”

He took the tea brought by Aoyagi, took a few sips and put it down, "What time is it?" ”

"It's been a moment." Qinghe returned.

After freshening up, Qingbo came in with some pastries and vegetarian snacks, and Chu Shuhuang used some simply. Then the palace people served and changed into plain clothes, with Qinghe, Qingliu, two other second-class palace maids, and four attendants went to the scripture building of Puning Temple.

Puning Temple occupies a very wide area, the Tibetan scripture building is a three-storey small building behind many halls, it is a three-story small building, the guard is strict, and the idle people are not allowed to approach.

Seeing Chu Shuhuang coming, the little monk guarding the door, after respectfully saluting, opened the door. Two chamberlains stayed at the door to guard with the little monk, and the others followed Chu Shuhuang into the courtyard of the Tibetan Scripture Building.

Outside the building, two second-class palace maids and two inner guards were left, leaving Qinghe and Qingliu to follow Chu Shuhuang into the building.

On the first floor of the scripture building, there are some basic heart sutras, and on the side of the window, there are several long cases, which are specially for people to study and copy scriptures.

"You find out the Prajnaparamita Heart Sutra and copy it here, and you don't have to follow it, and don't let people go upstairs to disturb you." Chu Shuhuang commanded.

"Princess, this is not the palace after all, let's let Aoyagi follow the princess, we won't disturb the princess." Qinghe said worriedly.

"No need, just watch the door and don't let people go upstairs."

Chu Shuhuang is special because of his own specialness, and he doesn't like the palace people to serve with him when he is "small", and most of the time, the palace people are waiting outside. She insisted like this, and although Qinghe and the others were worried, they had no choice but to listen.

Come to the second floor of the Tibetan scripture building, most of the scriptures here are some esoteric scriptures, on a few bookshelves in the corner, are the rare books handed down by Puning Temple through the ages. Chu Shuhuang circled around, there were the governing remarks written by the able ministers in history, the authentic works of famous calligraphers and painters, and some famous codex such as erudite miscellaneous records.

Chu Shuhuang picked out those travelogues and miscellaneous notes, as well as books that recorded strange news from all over the world, and put them on the desk by the window, there were not many, there were more than 20 books.

A shadow-like figure dressed in gray stood behind Chu Shuhuang, and when he saw that Chu Shuhuang had finished picking, he reached out and took out a package. Chu Shuhuang opened the package, put the books in the package and rewrapped them, and handed them to the man in gray.

The man in gray took the package, took out a box of rouge and a small mirror from his bosom and put them on the desk, and disappeared.

……

In a grange not too far from Puning Temple, a young man dressed in blue brocade stood in the field. The green seedlings in Tanaka are stretched out and are already more than three feet high, covering the noisy surroundings of the young man.

This young man is Hua Chang, the prince of Anguo Mansion, Hua Chang clapped his hands, tidied up his appearance that was messed up by the branches, and flashed the crops towards the ridges.

Although Hua Chang doesn't know what these novel seedlings are, they don't have any special effects at present, and they can't even talk about medicinal materials, and the medicinal properties are too weak to be ignored. Judging from the planting situation of this grange, let's treat them as crops first, so that the planting in the public should be nothing boring.

Hua Chang followed the ridge to the shade, the little guy Ah Jian had already arranged a more comfortable position, Hua Chang turned around and sat down, tired and thirsty. The sun was already in the west, but the weather was still hot, so there were no people working in the fields.

The steward Qianlan handed Hua Chang a kettle, Hua Chang rested while drinking water, and Qianlan reported the news to him.

In previous years, this Grange was nothing special like any other Grange, except for the last two years. In the past two years, we have taken in many refugees who fled in winter, dug ditches and ditches, and renovated the farmland, and the yield of the grange has gradually improved a lot. These novelty crops have only been planted in the past two years, and it seems that the harvest is not bad. I heard that I bought the barren mountain over there this year, but I don't know what to do. In addition, there is a medicine hall in the grange, not only for the people in the village to see a doctor, even the poor people outside the village can also go, and the doctor sitting in the hall has excellent medical skills, and the people around him are very praised.

Listening to Qianlan's report, Hua Chang was also thinking in his heart, this Grange is really not good.

There are only a few good fields in the village, and most of the land is only better than the inferior fields, of course, this is after digging ditches and ditches, before the transformation, that is a proper inferior field. Not to mention the hot springs, beautiful scenery, and delicious specialties, the noble family will never look down on such a grange.

The only advantage of this grange is its proximity to the capital.

Such a grange can only be a slightly wealthy family in Beijing, and petty officials can take it seriously, but the rich and noble people are really not enough. It's just that this family doesn't grow grains, what is it going to do when they grow these strange things?

After resting for a while, some of the subordinates came down and a group of people rode into the grange, but they couldn't see who they were because of the distance.

Hua Chang stretched out his hand to his forehead, covered his eyes and looked around, "It's such a time, since we missed the meal, why don't we go to the grange to disturb and then hurry." ”

The little servant Ajianliso packed his things and wrapped them in a small package and carried them on his back. Qianlan beckoned people to turn over and get on their horses, followed Hua Chang, and walked towards the manor halfway up the mountain.

The crops in the fields are thriving, and the eyes are full of greenery, and if you ignore the soil under your feet, it is hard to believe that this is an inferior crop. It can be seen that the owner of the grange, or the steward of the grange, is a very capable person.

Everyone first quietly went around the outside of the village, and then followed the mountain path to the gate of the village. The area of the village is not large, from the outside it looks simple and natural, and there is no special decoration, but the bucket arches are staggered, and the hanging beams frame the ridge, which shows the intentions.

Qianlan stepped forward and knocked on the door, and the door was opened by a young man in coarse cloth, waiting for Qianlan to explain his intentions, he looked at Hua Chang and the others, and saluted Hua Chang from a distance and said, "Everyone, please wait, wait for the villain to report to the steward to decide." ”

Hua Chang nodded immediately, and Qianlan continued: "Then it's bothering the little brother." ”

The boy closed the door as he entered, and there was a trail of footsteps. Hua Chang and Qianlan glanced at each other, the young man was dressed in coarse cloth and was calm and polite, this rule alone did not lose to the family, and the owner of this grange was more and more expected.

About the time of tea was passed, there was a sound of undulating footsteps in the courtyard, and the gate opened, and four people came out, led by a middle-aged man dressed in soft silk.

After the man came out to look at everyone, he went straight to Hua Changma and bowed and said, "The villain's surname is Tian, and he is the steward of the grange." The arrival of all the distinguished guests really makes the grange flourishing, the grange is simple and there is a place where the hospitality is not considerate, please Haihan, please inside! After finishing speaking, Steward Tian stepped aside and politely invited Hua Chang and the others in.

did not indicate his identity, but the attitude of this Tian steward was so respectful, Hua Chang suppressed the doubts in his heart, entered the courtyard with an unchanged face, and followed the guidance of Tian steward to a side hall.

After Hua Chang sat down, Tian Steward bowed down and stood under Hua Chang, and someone offered fragrant tea. Steward Tian said: "Please use some tea first, wait a little, and the meal will be fine for a while." ”
