Chapter Ninety-One: The Puja
Li Fan first wanted to congratulate Baili Feng. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
"That's a good thing. The order of the third grade is not low, even the wives of important ministers of the court, and there are few people with a grade higher than you. If you go to Kyoto in the future, you won't be embarrassed by too many people. ”
Bai Li Feng could see it: "It's a little higher than I expected." But the grade is just a false name. What really depends on real power has to be. ”
If the other party has a lot of real power in his hands, the grade will not become a real obstacle.
"It's just for a good face. It's better than a white body with nothing. ”
"I'm afraid that there will be more people staring at you in the future." Li Fan took a sip of tea: "In the end, this grade is a little higher." If it is the same as other people's female dependents, it is a four-grade fate, and it will not be so eye-catching. ”
Bai Li Feng replied calmly: "It's not that no one has a higher grade than me. ”
Seeing the suspicious faces of the few people in front of her, she smiled and said: "It seems that you haven't noticed, the lady of the Liuguo Mansion, she was originally from the second grade, but now she is the second grade." ”
Li Fan suddenly realized: "Yes, the second son of the Liuguo Mansion also donated money and grain in the name of Liu Ji." However, she has only raised half a grade. ”
Liu Feifei didn't understand: "But they donate less, so they don't mention much?" ”
Bai Li Feng glanced at Li Fan, who was thoughtful.
"It's not that the Liuguo Mansion donated less. It's that they shouldn't give so much. ”
There have long been rumors among the people, "the wealth of the world, the south willow and the north maple". The location of the Liuguo Mansion is still before Fengji, and it can be seen that it has a lot of wealth. Although the Great Jin Dynasty does not restrain merchants, a good family of the princes does not feel at ease to lead the court, but they still have to run shops and compete with the people for profits, which is not too glorious to say in the end. Originally, the imperial court did not pay much attention to these old magnates, hoping that they could slowly disappear into the superstructure. Now that the second son of the Liuguo Mansion has come to such a move, I am afraid that the people of other powerful families will not be tempted and will follow suit.
For the emperor, especially the younger emperor, if the former vassal power is restored, it is equivalent to dividing his imperial power.
That's not a good thing.
Liu Feifei suddenly realized: "No wonder I heard from the people that Liu Ji in our city has been in a slump recently, and it seems that he has deliberately kept a low profile." ”
The Liu family's business is low-key, which is closely related to the second young master himself.
Because just after the holy decree of the reward in Beijing came down, the Duchess of Liuguo, who was already a second-grade edict, looked worried.
For others, it is a good thing that a son can give his mother's life a higher level. But for Duchess Liu Guo, it didn't make her smile.
Not being able to get her mother's smile is a common thing for Liu Xiaoran. It's just that he doesn't know what he should do to make his mother smile at him.
It had been a long time since he had seen his mother's smile.
Although Liu Xiaoran is not good at walking, he calls for wind and rain in the mall, which people dare not underestimate. At the same time, he is also a self-respecting and self-reliant person, and he never belittles himself because of his physical shortcomings. But the only thing he regrets so far is about his mother.
Duchess Liu Guo was not originally a person who was cold to children. It's just that when she gave birth to Liu Xiaoran, she had a difficult birth, and it took several hours to give birth to him, and she almost ran out of vitality. Although the supplements are continuous, in the end, the body is still too ruthless, and almost **** has to drink tonics.
Since then, she has also fallen ill, depressed all day, and can no longer have children.
Liu Xiaoran felt ashamed of her mother. It was because of giving birth to him that his mother fell ill, so he also tried his best to please his mother.
Unfortunately, it had little effect.
But since this reward made her mother unhappy, for a long time, I am afraid that Liu Xiaoran will have to be cautious and dare not publicize it again.
And no matter what happened to the Liuguo Mansion, the people who received the reward on the side of Wangyun City were very happy.
After all, for merchants, money is easy to earn, but knighthoods are hard to come by.
Baili Feng is naturally happy.
As soon as she was happy, what she usually did was to donate money for sesame oil to the temple so that the temple could hold a puja.
On top of the festival, Ruowen rarely went out of Baili Mansion and participated together.
Ruowen's expression seemed to be calmer than when he first came to Baili Mansion. The originally thin and emaciated figure has also strengthened a little, and it looks like it has lost the hardships of the previous penance, and it has become more popular.
"Good. Hundred miles of donors. ”
Because outside, Baili Feng smiled at Ruowen: "Master Ruowen has been away from Wakaba Temple for many days, and I think you will have something to say to the masters in the temple." In that case, I won't bother you. I'll have people leave the carriage here. If you don't get back to your home before the lock, you can stay overnight in the temple. As long as someone tells me when the time comes, it's fine. ”
It has indeed been a long time since Wakano-ji left Wakaba-ji Temple. After a long time, there are naturally some things that need to be talked about with the teachers and brothers in the temple. In particular, he has recently had new perspectives on some scriptures, and it is natural that he should discuss them with them. Bai Li Feng's words hit his heart.
He didn't think much about it, and quickly responded: "Thank you Baili Shimu." ”
Bai Li Feng waved his hand: "If you hear that Master doesn't need to thank me. She didn't seem to think that this matter was worthy of his formal thanks, and said casually: "You are more familiar with the temple than me, so please take care of yourself, and I will go to the front to have a look." ”
After saying that, she really left directly with someone, leaving Ruowen alone in the same place.
Ruowen was already accustomed to Baili Feng's temperament of doing what she said, so she was not surprised that she left happily at this time.
Ruowen waited until Baili Feng's figure disappeared before raising his feet and walking to the depths of the temple.
As he walked, a figure followed him lightly and stealthily.
Ruowen went back to the room where he lived before.
Ruowen's room is very clean, and compared to Yiye's room, it is even more spacious. Except for the necessary daily necessities, there is hardly anything else to be seen inside. Clean as if no one had ever lived.
Lianxin pushed aside the branch that blocked Baili Feng's line of sight, and said casually: "Zhuqing should have followed at this moment." ”
Bai Li Feng nodded, and the group continued to walk forward without stopping.
This festival can be regarded as Baili Feng's head. Many people who have a good relationship with her have also contributed to support the festival. So this festival is a little bigger and more lively than ever. Even Su Keren, who had been staying at home before, was invited out by Baili Feng and asked her to come here for a walk and take a little relaxation.
But it's a coincidence. Baili Feng and Lianxin didn't go far before they saw Su Keren resting by the Qingxin Pond from a distance.
However, Su Keren is not idle at the moment.
A slightly raw boy in brocade clothes wandered not far from Su Keren.
The brocade-clothed boy hesitated, but his eyes only dared to quickly sweep over Su Keren, and then quickly removed his eyes.
Song Qing stood beside Su Keren with a cold face, staring vigilantly at the actions of the brocade-clothed boy.
Baili Feng frowned slightly. (To be continued.) )
