Chapter 365 Reviving the Western Chinese View
Three hundred and sixty-fifth
More than a dozen people were sent down by Li Shimin, and only when they came out of the Taiji Palace to the Gyeonggi Janissary did they breathe a sigh of relief. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
They didn't report the truth just now, but they were not bribed by Li Chengqian, but were frightened by Qin Ying.
Yesterday was really an unbearable Lantern Festival for them.
As a single dog, being ordered to take care of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and dating his wife is sadistic enough. The little lady still saw through their hiding, and said to Li Chengqian, how hard it was to squat on the roof in the distance, so let them change into their regular clothes and stand around nearby.
His Royal Highness the Crown Prince's expression was very complicated for a moment. The world of two people has become a world of several people in a matter of moments, and it is strange to be able to smile. But he didn't refute Qin Ying's face on the spot, stood still and looked back and beckoned the dozen or so people to jump off the room.
Qin Ying and Li Chengqian were talking, from time to time there was a feeling like a man's back, although she didn't find eyeliner, but the moonlight of the Shangyuan Festival was clear, and the roof behind the oblique was always a piece of black pressure, she guessed that these were people brought by Li Chengqian, intended to protect the safety of the two of them.
She didn't think much of it at the time, she just thought that it was better to be spied on than to be looked at.
Which lady of a family is following more than a dozen guards with knives behind her, and her behavior can still be as calm as before? What was even more shocking was that Qin Ying only glanced at the shark skin sheath at the handle of the horizontal knife, and then read out the battalion to which they belonged.
In fact, Qin Ying had the idea of knowing himself and knowing that he would not be defeated in a hundred battles, and he had been studying the number of the Gyeonggi Praetorian Guards since he returned to Beijing from Youzhou, and he was able to bluff them by mistake today.
When they saw that Qin Ying was very familiar with the Gyeonggi Janissaries, they were all surprised to think that she could be the daughter of the military department Shangshu Hou Junji?
Although Mrs. Hou Junji's belly is not angry, she has only had one son over the years, but Master Shangshu is merciful and merciful, and one or two outer room girls can be said to be reasonable.
By the way, I can also figure out why Qin Ying didn't tell them to hide.
She Aya is the head of the Gyeonggi Guards, and she is very familiar with them, and her commanding spirit is probably in line with the style of Hou Shangshu's daughter.
As for the fact that the boss's maiden and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince were dating, they all knew that they couldn't spread the word. So this morning they discussed the countermeasures. As everyone knows, this small self-inflicted clever act actually aroused His Majesty's suspicion, and he felt that the crown prince had colluded with the Gyeonggi Janissaries and even Hou Junji.
Li Shimin's hunch is accurate, but the hunch will not come true until ten years later.
……
After fifteen, it is considered the end of the New Year.
A few days ago, Su Huan and Liyuan Shi asked His Majesty to resign from the post of waiting for the edict of the Hanlin Academy, and as soon as they got the letter of permission, they took Su Qin and Sumite away respectively. Qin Ying didn't ask where Yuanshi and Sumire were going, but just asked Mei Sanniang to secretly stuff a few copper plates into Sumire's baggage.
After that, it is worth mentioning that His Majesty will give the offerings placed in the Taimiao Temple on the Shangyuan Festival to the majority of subjects. There are no pick-up requirements, just a limited number of offerings on a first-come, first-served basis. If you want to touch the royal nobility, go to Chonghuafang Xihuaguan to report the name post, and let the Taoist write it down and take away an offering.
The courtiers boasted of their status, and they would definitely not go to Xihuaguan and stand in line with the people, even if they were curious about the appearance of the offerings, at most they sent a small servant to dress up in disguise and make up a part.
In the end, it was not surprising that most of the people came.
Two days after the news spread from the DPRK to the streets, Xihuaguan was squeezed through the gate.
Qin Ying was speechless as the viewer: why did the offerings placed in the Royal Temple go to her Xihua Temple? And even the door and sill have to be replaced, who will give her some money to repair the Taoist temple?
One day, the Taoist in charge took advantage of the twilight to Qin Ying's house, and complained to her with a bitter face, the Taoist temple has been crowded recently, and they are really overwhelmed, and they also hope that the master of the temple will bow down to the temple to preside over the Taoist affairs.
Qin Ying is not stupid, so he will not squeeze into the Taoist temple when there are crowds. Hearing this, he smiled and waved his hand, believing that the two of them could be busy.
The Taoists knew that Qin Ying had passed the freshness of the first master, and now she was very comfortable as the shopkeeper, so they no longer expected her to help.
The three chatted for a while, and Qin Ying finally instructed dozens of offerings to be set aside, and asked them to take a few small servants in Qin Ying's house and give them to the officials of the five grades in batches in the evening. When the person in charge heard this, he called the viewer to behave in a person's way of doing things without revealing a drop of water.
Standing at the door of the house and seeing the two of them away, Qin Ying remembered that Li Chengqian said a few days ago about the revival of Xihuaguan, and said that he had asked for a will in front of His Majesty.
So the "farce" of transferring the offerings of the Taimiao Temple to the subjects of Xihuaguan was arranged by Li Chengqian?
Qin Ying realized how much kindness she had inherited from him, and was moved to not know what to do, so she took the embroidery plate and begged Mei Sanniang to teach her how to make a bag of tricks that night.
After a little thought, Mei Sanniang knew what she was doing with the tips. Showed her how to make a paper mold, and told her how to make the needle durable, and watched her fiddle with the female red thing beside her.
Half an hour passed, Qin Ying cut the cloth of the brocade bag, sewed a little with crooked stitches, felt not very satisfied and wanted to cut the thread buckle and start again, but was teased by Mei Sanniang: "Look at what you have worked so hard to do, do you want to give it to your sweetheart?" ”
Qin Ying paused with his hand holding the sleeve scissors, his face was a little suspiciously red, and he said like a dead duck with a hard mouth: "Won't I be able to keep it for myself." ”
She laughed when she heard this, and her eyes narrowed into a beautiful arc: "In this way, your thing is his." ”
saw that the other party shook his head seriously and said: "If he becomes a person of the Ninety-Five, can his world become my world in the future?" Now that he and I are in love, even if we are fortunate enough to become relatives in the future, the boundaries between the two are still clear. ”
Mei Sanniang felt that it made sense, but I didn't know how Qin Ying could have such a profound insight.
After the aftermath of the distribution of offerings to the Taimiao, the Xihua Temple has become the only Taoist temple of incense on the fifteenth day of the first month, and its status is second only to the Xuandu Temple where peach trees are planted.
……
There is still a month and a half to go before the Spring Festival is held, and the Ministry of Rites and the people under him have begun to work on the test papers. The other three deployed Lang Zhong and Wai Lang helped more or less.
The revival of the Xihuaguan was not yet full-term, and a disaster occurred.
The sons recommended by various state capitals went to Beijing to take the spring exam, and they generally lived in Taoist temples before the exam, because many people had no relatives in Chang'an City to go to.
I don't know which one I heard from the rumors that Qin Ying, the master of Xihuaguan, is also the Langzhong of the Ancestral Department of the Ministry of Rites.
Some people who have flexible ideas and want to go through the back door will come to Xihuaguan to temporarily stay and try their luck, hoping to let the nobles be familiar with their names and faces before the exam.
Qin Ying heard that the behavior of the adults in the house before the entrance examination became a common practice, but she didn't expect that Xihuaguan would be in the market again because of her name.
