Chapter 203: Exotic Scriptures
Chen Siyu's beautiful eyes glanced at the people around him, and when his eyes fell on Yang Muyun, his eyes widened in surprise, and his face also showed a different color.
Yang Muyun shook his head at her, Chen Siyu understood, and Jing Lian went back to the house, and closed the door with a bang.
"These two girls have such a big temper." Erotu looked away, and saw that Yang Muyun was still staring at the other party's door, so he said, "What, Lord Yang knows them?" ”
"I don't know," Yang Muyun shook his head, rubbed his chin and said, "This young lady is really beautiful, and she has a good temper. He blinked his eyes as if admiringly.
"These dignitaries and noble sons," Eritu snorted heavily in his nose, "When I see a beautiful woman, my eyes light up, and the Ming Dynasty has cleaned up some of these indulgent gentlemen, and it seems that the qi is also exhausted." ”
"I don't know the name of this young lady, how old is Fang?" Yang Muyun said deliberately.
"Lord Yang," Eritu was really a little tired of looking at it, "It's not too late to wait until you leave here to find out about these slowly!" ”
......
"Miss, isn't this Yang Gongzi?" As soon as Jing Lian closed the door, she couldn't wait to speak.
"Shhhh
"How did he end up here, and when did he come to the capital?" Chen Siyu muttered to himself in a low voice.
Seeing that she was in a trance, Jing Lian stretched out her hand and shook it in front of him, and said playfully: "Miss, Yang Gongzi won't chase you to the capital because he likes you in his heart, right?" ”
"Nonsense!" Chen Siyu's face was slightly red, and the meeting with Yang Muyun hooked her thoughts to a few months ago, it was in Nandu, she and Jinglian were walking in the downtown streets of Nandu in a carriage, and somehow the horse was frightened and rampaged in the streets and alleys of Nandu. It was Yang Muyun, whose appearance restrained the fierce horse pulling the cart and saved her and Jinglian.
"I'm not talking nonsense," Jing Lian glanced at her, "Miss, you can see that your face is red. ”
"Jing Lian," Chen Siyu's pretty face turned flat, pretending to be angry, "Don't talk nonsense anymore, Yang Gongzi likes Miss Zisu, and I am just friends with him." ”
"Just her?" Jing Lian pursed her lips and said disapprerovingly: "It's just a kiln sister in the Qinglou, although she looks more beautiful than you, Miss, but in terms of life experience, she is not worthy of lifting shoes for you." ”
"I don't allow you to say that," Chen Siyu was really angry this time, "Although Miss Zisu was born in a Qinglou, she is clean and self-conscious, and she does not sell her body. Yang Gongzi has a deep love for her. ”
"I think it's right to be seduced by her beauty, she's the Oiran of Nandu, just a smile, few men can resist."
"Are you jealous?" Chen Siyu glanced at Jing Lian.
"I'm just complaining about Miss, Miss is from a princely family, and she is both talented and beautiful, how can she be compared?" Jing Lian was a little unconvinced.
"I haven't been compared to her," Chen Siyu was not annoyed, and said with a smile: "I want to marry the son of Chengguogong, which she can't compare." ”
"But are you happy, miss?" Jing Lian stared into her eyes and said, "Jing Lian knows who you like in your heart?" Otherwise, how could you hide here, miss? ”
"What if you like it, what if you don't like it?" Chen Siyu sighed, "Do we still have a choice as women?" His eyes seemed to become a little dazed, "I thought I wouldn't see him again, but who ......knows," he said and shook his head.
"Miss, this is fate," Jing Lian said in her ear: "Miss, look, you hid here, how could you meet him?" ”
"I ......" Chen Siyu's mouth opened slightly, and he paused as soon as he spit out a word, his eyes looked out the window a little blankly, and it was still raining outside. Her mind went back to the past: it was raining that day, and his men carried him to his mother's monastic nunnery. His injuries were severe, so I undressed him, washed his wounds, and bandaged them with medicine...... She had never done that before, and she didn't know how she had done it that day, it was the first time she had seen a young man naked
Body, at that time her heart was pounding. Mother said that she was in love with this man, but she didn't know if it was or not, but she felt that she couldn't tell the joy in her heart when she saw him...... Later, my father wrote from Jingshi, saying that my grandfather was seriously ill and asked my brother and her to go to Jingshi as soon as possible, and I didn't care about seeing him again, so I left in a hurry...... But after arriving in Beijing, grandpa's illness quickly cured, grandpa said that his granddaughter brought him a happy event, said that she was confused, and later understood that grandpa married himself to Zhu Yi, the son of Chengguo Gong, she was blinded at that time, how could she be like this since she was a child, how could her loving and amiable grandfather be like this, pretending to be sick and earning himself from the southern capital, just to marry Chengguo Mansion......
"Miss, I'm not afraid that you will be unhappy," Jing Lian said: "Just the Zhu Shizi of the Chengguo Mansion, with an obscene look, at first glance, he was hollowed out by wine." He was arrogant outside, and he let his dogs bite passers-by in front of his house. In the house, he also beats and scolds his subordinates at every turn, and the maids with a slight appearance are all ...... by him, and his face is red, and some can't go on. just muttered, "I don't want to marry someone like this with Miss." ”
"What if you don't want to," Chen Siyu sighed faintly: "I'm just deceiving myself by hiding here with you." ”
"But Yang Gongzi appeared," Jing Lian held her little face with both hands, blinked with a pair of smart big eyes, and said thoughtfully: "I asked him to take a shot, take Miss and you go away, isn't it done?" ”
"Impossible," Chen Siyu shook his head gloomily, "He is also a person with official status, how can he let go of everything and take me to the end of the world?" ”
Eritu took Yang Muyun to a secluded courtyard, where there lived more than a dozen people from the Western Regions with their heads wrapped in white cloth, wearing long robes, and high noses and deep eyes. Needless to say, they were members of the Chagatai Khanate Mission, and as soon as they saw Eritu, they all gathered together, and one of them was an old acquaintance with Yang Muyun, and he was the deputy envoy of the Mission, Said.
"Lord Erritu" Said stepped forward to salute.
"Said," Eritu pointed at Yang Muyun, "This Lord Yang once entertained you in the military department, you haven't forgotten it!" ”
"It's not just in the military department," Said said with a smile at him, "We have already met at the intersection of Jixian Street in Beijing. ”
"Well," said Eritu, "then you should entertain him well, and don't neglect it." ”
"Don't worry, Lord Eritu," Said turned around and instructed his subordinates, "You guys quickly take Lord Yang down to rest." ”
"Slow!" Yang Muyun said to Eritu: "What about my wife? ”
Eritu smiled, "Lord Yang, don't worry, the little boy will not treat Mrs. Zun slowly, and when the time is right, he will let you meet Mrs. Zun." ”
......
Yang Muyun was arranged to a room in the innermost part of the courtyard, and as soon as Yang Muyun entered, they closed the door. He glanced around, it was quite small, with firewood piled up in the corner, and only a simple wooden bed against the wall.
Yang Muyun walked back and forth in the room, came to the wooden bed and sat down. I was secretly worried in my heart: "Yuan Qi'er's move is to detain me here, how can I get in touch with the outside and let the court know what happened here?" When he thought of Chen Siyu, he couldn't help but feel hot in his heart, he didn't expect to meet her here, which instantly evoked a warm memory between him and her in the past. Thinking that she was about to marry Zhu Yi's stubborn anointed son, I sighed in my heart.
"If I can help her get out of here, in her capacity, she will definitely be able to get in touch with the imperial court quickly and reflect everything here to the imperial court." Yang Muyun's heart lit up, and he seemed to have made up an idea in his heart.
At this moment, the door of the burrow creaked open, and a man walked in with a tray in his hand, with only a piece of scone and a bowl of water in the tray.
"Are you going to use this to entertain your guests?" Yang Muyun glanced at the tray and said, "I brought you Lord Said to the military headquarters that day, but the delicious food and drink did not neglect him. ”
The man put the tray heavily on the side of the bed, and said impatiently: "Lord Said is celebrating Ramadan with us, and we can't eat and drink from morning till night, we don't have a fire to cook, just these dry food and water, you can just have it!" ”
"Ramadan? What Ramadan? Yang Muyun couldn't help asking.
"This is our Islamic custom, and if you are not a Muslim, you will not understand," the man continued: "I have to go back and pray, so please take care of yourself!" As he spoke, he turned to leave, "Slow! Yang Muyun stopped him, "Can I attend your ceremony and pray with you?" ”
......
Yang Muyun followed the man to the large room next door, where a woolen carpet with red embroidered gold thread was laid on the floor, and Said led his men to kneel on the carpet, facing west, and muttering words in their mouths. The person who led Yang Muyun hurriedly knelt behind those people, prostrate on the ground, and his mouth also began to chatter, Yang Muyun also knelt on the carpet following their example, and prostrate on the ground towards the west.
Said suddenly straightened up, arms raised in the air, and said something out loud. Yang Muyun only felt that this was different from Taoist mantras and monk chanting, and he couldn't understand a word anyway. Everyone straightened up with him, arms raised high, chanting aloud, and their spirits became excited. Yang Muyun also did the same with them. After about half a pillar of incense, Said stopped chanting and stood up, followed by the others.
Said turned around and caught a glimpse of Yang Muyun in the crowd, and a strange look appeared in his eyes.
After the others went out, Said asked Yang Muyun to sit down.
"Does Lord Yang also believe in Allah?" Said asked.
"Lord Said?" Yang Muyun smiled, "Can I believe in your Allah?" ”
"Why do you have such an idea?" Said was puzzled.
"I'm very curious about your teachings," Yang Muyun's face showed a look of interest, "Can you explain it to me well?" ”
"The teachings of our Islam are very profound, and there are many taboos and rules," Said said with a meaningful smile, "Lord Yang may not be used to it." ”
"Then we can discuss," Yang Muyun said with a smile, "Let's see if the despicable person is suitable to be a believer in Allah." Lord Said will not be stingy with his teachings because he is a prisoner! ”
"Since Lord Yang is so interested in my teaching, how can I flatly refuse?" Said had a good impression of Yang Muyun, that day he led his men to drive the camel team from the intersection of Jixian Street, and was accidentally hit by Yang Muyun's car and fell to the ground.
This time, as the deputy envoy of the Chagatai Khanate, he came to the Ming Dynasty with Saisira, and he had no obligation to come here to preach. But the enthusiasm shown by this young official for Islam surprised him, and while he was happy, he suddenly had a sense of mission in his heart. The officials and people of the Ming Dynasty believe in Buddhism and Taoism, and are not enthusiastic about Islam, take the Beijing master of the Ming Dynasty as an example, there is no mosque in the huge city, if Yang Muyun can be absorbed into the religion, it will be very beneficial to the spread of Islam in the Ming Dynasty.
Said took a copy of the Quran with a thick green cover, closed his eyes and prayed, then opened the scripture and explained it to Yang Muyun word by word. Yang Muyun listened very carefully, and would ask a few questions from time to time, and Said patiently explained to him.
"On the 15th day of the third month of the third year of the Islamic calendar, the Prophet Muhammad led a force of 300 men against an army of 800 men from Mecca, which is known as the Battle of Badr, and the Prophet Muhammad won a great victory, thus clearing the way to the holy city of Mecca......" Saeed said.
"The three years of the Islamic calendar should be the seventh year of my Tang Dynasty martial arts," Yang Muyun is very familiar with history, he praised: "It seems that the Prophet Muhammad not only spread doctrines and ideas, but was also a military genius, 300 men defeated 800 people, which is really remarkable." ”
Seeing Yang Muyun praising the Prophet Muhammad, Saeed was even more happy, twisting his beard and smiling: "The Prophet Muhammad continued to achieve military victories not because of his bravery, but because of his generosity, justice and fraternity, which not only made his subordinates swear to serve to the death, but also infected the enemy, so that they took the initiative to put down their swords and guns," Sa'id's eyes showed the glory of worship, "Six years later, the Prophet Muhammad led an army of 10,000 men to the holy city of Mecca, and after arriving at the city, the two sides did not go to war, The princes of Mecca surrendered to him. ”
