Chapter 10: The Priestess of Bailiang

On this day, I was learning embroidery in the house with Rui'er, and I thought of the last time I made a bet with Huo Quai, the bet he asked for was a purse.

It's a pity that I don't know how to embroider at all, although I won him, I can go with him. But he still secretly asked Rui'er for advice, wanting to learn to make a purse for him.

"No, no, the stitch is wrong here!" Rui'er snatched my purse.

"Wrong again?" I rubbed my fingers, and after a long time, my fingers had been pricked by myself countless times, and the tears were about to fall from the pain, or wrong.

Rui'er looked at my work, cried and laughed, and said, "Lan'er, you did a good job of needlework before!" How is it that after speaking, your work has regressed so much? ”

"Really?"

"It's not like your stitches at all!"

Rui'er pulled out the drawer, took out a delicate purse, and said, "Look, this is what you did before." Look at this needle, this pattern, where is it like your current craft! ”

I took the purse in Rui'er's hand, the small purse was embroidered with a water lotus, and two small fish were dragging in the water waves, which was lively and lively, and had the style of a work of art.

Look at my own embroidery, a flower that I don't know what it is occupies most of the purse, the petals are of different sizes, and the head is tilted.

Although I don't have the talent to do embroidery, fortunately, I can make up for it with diligence, and I don't worry, Einstein made three small benches!

Rui'er shook her head and said, "I think you better don't do it, no one wants this thing to give away!" ”

"Who said I was going to give it away?" I was embarrassed for a moment, as if someone had spied on my mind.

Rui'er approached me, blinked, her dark eyes showed a mischievous look, and said, "You won't do it for the young master, right?" ”

"Ha Luha, what a joke! I'm just bored and panicked, I did it to play, who said it was for him! "I hurriedly snatched the ugly half-finished purse.

"For whom?" A voice came from behind us.

Rui'er and I hurriedly got up to salute the visitor, and Huo Quzhi walked into the house with a tall man.

Wei Qing!

Wei Qing was wearing a black robe, with a Chinese face, upright facial features, and profound outlines. With a gentle smile on his face, he is gentle and elegant, which makes people feel admiration in their hearts.

I hurriedly pinched the purse in my hand and hid it behind me, and I didn't know if Lu Daohuo was sick or not, and I felt embarrassed in my heart, and my face turned red all of a sudden.

"I've seen the lord, I'll prepare tea for you!" After speaking, he pulled Rui'er and quickly withdrew, went to the tea room to get this year's new tea, prepared hot water, and then went back to serve the tea.

Wei Qing took the tea soup, took a sip of it, was stunned for a moment, and said, "Huh? This tea soup is very fragrant. ”

Huo Quzhi also took a sip when he heard this, and said, "This is Lan'er's skill in cooking tea." ”

I have been here for more than a year, and the biggest gain is that I have learned how to cook tea. The art of cooking tea was an elegant activity in the Han Dynasty. Of course, even today, the tea ceremony is still talked about.

Uncle Chen, the housekeeper of Huo Mansion, is a middle and high master, who usually looks inconspicuous, but he is extremely talented in cooking tea.

I tasted Uncle Chen's tea by chance, and I pestered him to teach me with a dead face.

Uncle Chen has no children, and when he saw that I was enthusiastic about learning and teaching, he was also enthusiastic about teaching. So he passed on his tea cooking skills to me.

Wei Qing looked at me, showed a warm smile and said, "The tea you cook is different, who are you learning from?" ”

This is the first time I have faced Wei Qing, a famous general in history, and I can't help but feel a little excited, but I said unhurriedly: "Uncle Chen, the housekeeper in the house, often cooks tea, and I have learned some of it." I'm afraid that the skills are shallow, and it is difficult to get into the hall of elegance."

After speaking, I had the intention to show off, took a step forward, and said, "My lord, please borrow a teacup." ”

Wei Qing nodded slightly and handed me the teacup. I gently picked up the teacup that Wei Qing had just drunk and shook it, then opened the teacup and handed it to Wei Qing to see that a peony flower had conjured up in the tea soup he had used just now. It's steaming hot, with a dreamy feeling.

This unique skill of transforming flowers and plants is the technique of pressing the box taught by Uncle Chen. I didn't succeed every time, but this time it was as successful as God's help, but I also secretly said that I was lucky.

Wei Qing turned his head to look at Huo Quai, and said, "This is the dumb girl who spoke?" ”

Huo Quzhi nodded and said, "It's her." ”

Wei Qing said: "It's really interesting! ”

I lowered my eyebrows and took the teacup and stood aside, obediently serving.

"Your Majesty's sacrifice to heaven in Bailiangtai for you has aroused the dissatisfaction of some people in the court." Wei Qingdao.

Huo Quzhi snorted disdainfully and said, "Uncle is talking about that little knife and pen officer?" ”

Wei Qing said lightly: "Go to the sick, now that you are relying on your martial arts, Your Majesty is favored by the Holy Grace, it is inevitable that some civil officials will not be happy." But you don't have to worry, your uncle will take care of everything outside. As long as you are angry, do whatever you like! ”

I lowered my head silently, Huo Quzhi had a close relationship with Wei Qing, and I admired him very much since I was a child.

Huo Quzhi is a person with eyes on his forehead, and he has never looked down on those civil officials, no wonder Sima Qian belittled him more than praised him in the "Historical Records", and his great military exploits were brushed aside.

It's just that some descendants have commented that even if Sima Qian attributed Wei Qinghuo's illness to "The Biography of Yu Xinglie", it still can't erase their outstanding contributions in the war of the Chinese nation against foreign races.

The two talked about the affairs of the court for a while, and Wei Qing left, and Huo Qubing sent Wei Qing all the way to the door of Huo's mansion before returning.

When he returned, I greeted him and asked, "Sima Qian said yours in the court?" ”

Huo Quzhi raised his eyebrows and said, "He likes to say whatever he wants, I don't care!" As long as Your Majesty says that I am right, no one dares to say that I am not to my face! ”

I thought to myself, who dares to say to your face that you are not, either you were harmonized by Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, or you were directly abolished.

Suddenly, he asked me, "Do you want to go to Pak Leung Terrace?" ”

"What kind of place is Bailiang Terrace?"

"It's a shrine, and incense has always been in full bloom, and many people go to worship."

"But where Your Majesty gave you a sacrifice and blessed this time?"

"Yes. In fact, His Majesty is asking for the blessing of the Han Dynasty, and no war is a blessing, just because I am an excuse, but I didn't expect to provoke these civil officials. Let's not talk about this, everyone says that it works, and we'll go see it tomorrow. ”

"Good!"

During the period of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, due to the effective implementation of measures such as salt and iron official camps and suing for money, the imperial court used it to spare. The confiscated property stored in Shanglin Yuan has been piled up, so Shanglin Yuan is widened.

Historical Records? Pingzhun Book": Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty in the second year of Yuanding, "is the time, the more you want to fight with the Han boat, it is to overhaul the Kunming Pool, and look at the ring." The ship is more than ten zhang high, and the flag is added to it, which is very strong. The Son of Heaven felt that it was made of Bailiang Terrace, which was dozens of zhang high. The repair of the palace is beautiful. ”

As a symbol and witness of the large-scale construction of Chang'an City in the Han Dynasty, Bailiangtai is of great significance and far-reaching influence.

I followed Huo to this Bailiangtai when I was sick, and I saw that the incense was flourishing and the crowd was bustling.

There was a quiet place, so we walked along the green path, avoiding the many people who came to pray for blessings. It's also fresh and interesting. When we came to a temple, we went inside to pray for blessings.

Unlike other places, the temple is dedicated to a goddess.

I was stunned when I saw this goddess statue, the goddess was still calm, intoxicated, and smiling.

Huo Quzhi saw that I was staying, and said with a smile: "Lan'er, how can you think that a woman will be stunned?" ”

I said, "This idol is very realistic. ”

"Thank you, girl, for the compliment." A voice came from behind the temple.

I looked up and saw a woman walking out from behind the statue, white smoke and soft veil, slender waist and slight steps.

The face is like congealed cream, delicate and delicate, and the two strands of hair on the cheeks add a bit of seductive style with her light steps, so beautiful that they don't eat the fireworks of the world.

The most beautiful woman I have ever seen in ancient times is Ruozhen, but this woman is even more beautiful than Ruozhen.

Upon closer inspection, it was found that it was somewhat similar to the goddess enshrined in the temple.

The woman Yingying walked up to us, gave a salute, and said lightly: "Your Excellency is General Huo?" ”

Huo Quzhi was not as shocked by this woman's appearance as I was, and when he heard her question, he only said lightly: "I am Huo Quzhi, I don't know how Your Excellency knows the Dao?" ”

The woman said: "General Huo is famous all over the world, and everyone knows it. Although I wish for the temple in this temple, I still know the way."

I was amazed in my heart, such a beautiful woman would inevitably turn her hands into clouds and rain when she put her hands in the world. Why did she condescend to live in this Bailiang Terrace and be willing to worship the immortals?

She took out the sign holder and handed it to us, saying, "Can you two ask for a signature?" ”

I glanced at Huo Quai, and when he saw the pleading meaning in my eyes, he said, "Lan'er, you ask." ”

I took the lottery holder from the woman's hand, knelt down in front of the statue of the goddess, closed my eyes and began to shake. Xu Yu threw out a bamboo stick, and I picked it up and handed it to the woman.

She asked, "What does the girl want?" ”

I looked at Huo Quai's illness and said, "Please be safe"

"But do you want General Huo to be safe?"

I nodded, although I knew that Huo Qubing in the history of the Dao was invincible and invincible, but I was always worried about him, and his worst outcome was ......

The woman looked at the proverbs on the bamboo sticks and said, "General Huo is the reincarnation of the general star in the sky to respond to the catastrophe in the world, and this expedition must be a great victory." It's a pity", she paused and said, "The general has little spirit and doesn't live long." ”

My body shook violently, and I looked at her dumbfounded, what this woman said was completely in line with the fate of Huo Qu's disease in history, could she also come from the future like me?

was thinking wildly in his heart, but Huo Quai, who was on the side, didn't think so and didn't say a word.

I hurriedly asked, "Yes... What's the solution? ”

"Only the ether is refined"

"Taiyijing?"

The woman's beautiful eyes rippled, she looked at Huo Qu's illness deeply, and said something that made me, a person in the twenty-first century, dumbfounded.

"General Huo and I have the same room, and the ether can be supplemented by it, which can extend the general's life span for twenty years!"

I covered my mouth with my hand, and this woman actually said to her face that she wanted to have a bang with Huo Quai!

Although the Han Dynasty was open to the people, I didn't expect it to be open to this point!

Although Huo Quzhi looks heroic, he feels like a child in my eyes, but I didn't expect that now there are women who start to beat him.

Huo Quzhi suddenly smiled, the corner of his eyes pouted at the woman, and said in an extremely mocking tone: "I thought that the god monarch was clean, bathed and fasted to pray for blessings." I didn't expect this temple to be so unbearable, it can be seen that this god is not a true god, don't ask for it! ”

After that, he pulled me to turn around and leave, and I was so anxious by him that I hurriedly shouted: "Wait! ”

Huo Quzhi looked at me suspiciously, I don't know how to tell him that what this woman said is true.

Historically, he did not live to be twenty-four years old.

I stomped my foot, let go of his hand, and turned to look for the woman.

When I walked into the temple again, I found that there was no one, only the statue of the goddess in the temple was still high up, looking down on the world.

★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★ Hussar General Xiaochuan Tenth Episode In the "Historical Records of the Three Family Notes" cited in the wild history "Han Wu Story", there was such a legend: Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty built a Bailiangtai to worship a goddess (the goddess's deeds are also recorded in the official history), I heard that this god is very effective, Huo Qu is sick and often comes to pray for blessings, but the god only hears his voice and does not see his person.

Later, once, this god monarch suddenly appeared, she turned into a beautiful woman, and she also dressed up deliberately and asked to have a fight with Huo Quai.

However, Huo Quzhi resolutely disagreed, and rebuked the goddess and said: "I am clean with the gods, so I fast and pray for blessings." If you want to be yin now, this is not a god. "From now on, I will never come again. Shenjun also felt very ashamed.

However, this matter did not end there, and later Huo Qu fell seriously ill, and Emperor Wu asked people to pray to Shenjun for this, and Shenjun said: "General Huo has little energy and does not live long." I want to make up for it with ether, and I can prolong my life. General Huo didn't know what this meant, but saw that he was cut off. There is no way to save it now. Sure enough, Huo Qu fell ill and died soon after.

This legend has been widely circulated, and there are many miscellaneous novels such as "Taiping Guangji" and "Yan Yi Edited Series".
