Chapter 202: The Stone Sellers Came (5,000 words)
Wu Chengsi, Wu Sansi, and Li Dan really don't know what they provoked.
However, what they know very well is that from now on, there will be one more Princess Taiping who will open a mansion and set up a museum, and that will be a real headache.
......
To put it bluntly, the opening of the palace means that the princess, the prince, and the royal relatives move out of the palace and set up a mansion when they become adults.
The reason for setting up the museum is that these literary and artistic young people who love literature, relying on their high position and power, have nowhere to spend a lot of money, so they have recruited a large number of talents to specialize in studying subsets of classics and history and compiling books.
On the surface, there is nothing special about opening a mansion and setting up a museum, let alone Princess Taiping, even if it is a county lord, a prince or something like that, you can also build a mansion, right?
But, in reality, these four words are extremely unusual.
Because when the government is opened, there must be officials and vassals. It's called the imperial court appointment.,But it's actually a general.。
The establishment of the cultural museum is to recruit talents, which is similar to forming a party, and it is officially recognized as forming a party for personal gain.
Especially in the Tang Dynasty, the opening of the mansion has another meaning.
Back then, Li Yuan established Li Jiancheng as the crown prince, felt indebted to Li Shimin, and let him set up the Qin Palace.
Needless to say, everyone knows that in a change in Xuanwumen, Li Ergongzi not only killed the eldest brother, but also did not let go of his father Li Yuan.
By what?
Relying on the ability to be called in the early Tang Dynasty, there are not a hundred but eighty in the Qin Palace.
Later, Li Shimin asked Li Tai to open a mansion and set up a museum, write books and study. Then, Li Tai began to recruit talents again, and confronted the East Palace, forcing the crown prince Li Chengqian to strike first and rebel and usurp the throne.
In the original history, Princess Taiping and Li Bao'er also gradually revealed their grandeur by opening a mansion and setting up a museum.
At the height of peace, most of the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty were her henchmen.
To put it bluntly, this is specially used to check and balance the East Palace, or to take over the position of the crown prince of the East Palace.
Whoever can open a mansion and set up a literary hall will be able to have a say in the court, and even get involved in the battle for the storage position.
What are Wu Chengsi and Wu Sansi thinking about? Isn't that the throne?
As a result, before they could emerge, Taiping took the lead.
Among them, it is estimated that only they can know the three flavors.
......
Not to mention what the three people in the palace are like, and what Mrs. Wu thinks, just talk about Princess Taiping.
In fact, Taiping has already had a mansion, but she never thought of setting foot in the court before, so the subordinate officials in the mansion are all idle officials sent by the old lady at will.
For example, Chen Ziang.
However, now it is different, Wu Zetian clearly allowed her to open a mansion and set up a museum, that is, he handed over the right to elect officials and employ people to Taiping himself.
Even from now on, in the "Ming Jing" and "Jinshi" examinations, Princess Taiping is no longer a bystander or an outsider, she can choose the people she recommends, and this power is not great.
Don't look at our princess, Her Royal Highness is now looking at the court without relatives, and there is no helper.
However, after a maximum of seven or eight years of work, as long as they go through two more tests, the subordinate officials, jinshi, and the families and forces behind the subordinate officials who go out of the princess's mansion will be extremely huge, and they will be a force that cannot be ignored in the court.
Wu Ning never expected that Princess Taiping went around in a circle in time and space, and finally returned to her original trajectory.
Moreover, it was earlier, faster, and more rapid than the peace in the original history.
Even, more sophisticated!
Don't forget, Taiping was taught by Wu Laojiu himself, who knows what kind of height this woman can reach after blackening?
......
Of course, our Royal Highness the princess has no heart to think about the future at this time.
When he returned to the house, Taiping locked himself in his room and wept silently.
Is Wu Ning really dead?
Are the honest and simple peasant men and women really dead?
Although she didn't believe that Wu Ning would die so easily, Wu Chengyuan's words were conclusive, and she mourned for Wu Ning and Xiashan from the bottom of her heart.
"If you go..."
"Who is still going to help Hongu with advice?"
"Who can stand in front of Hongu?"
Just as he was thinking, "Your Highness." ”
The palace people outside the room said goodbye.
Taiping condensed his eyebrows and looked at the door, first wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes, and then scolded coldly: "Didn't this palace say, don't disturb anyone!" ”
"Your Highness's forgiveness is really sudden."
Taiping asked impatiently: "What's the matter!?" ”
"There is a foreigner outside the house, saying that he is from Xiangzhou, and he doesn't even have a post, but he has to ask to see His Highness."
"The little one can't be twisted, and I'm afraid that it is really His Highness's old man, so I have to dare to report it."
"Nope!"
"Yes." The palace people trembled.
"Wait!!"
But Taiping reacted immediately, from Xiangzhou? Old friend?
"That person can have a surname? What does it look like? ”
"Back to His Highness, the man's surname is Meng, he is an old man in his fifties, and he is dressed decently, not like a pretending villain."
"Surname Meng?"
"Old man?"
Taiping secretly said: Isn't this the old man Meng in Xiangzhou? Why did he come to the capital? It's not going to be a relationship, is it?
In Taiping's impression, Old Man Meng is very good at drilling camps, so he has met so many royal relatives and nobles, how can he not use it?
It is reasonable to come and pay respects.
Of course, if this is the case, Taiping will not meet him, so he has to say that Old Man Meng has climbed a little too much.
You go to cling to the past that others still say, and you directly want to have a relationship with Her Royal Highness the Princess? I just don't know how many pounds and taels I have.
However, it doesn't seem to work if you don't see it, Taiping vaguely feels that there is something strange, this time is too coincidental.
Then he said, "Let him come in and bring him here." ”
"Yes."
After a while, the palace people led the visitors into the hall.
At this time, Taiping had calmed down and sat firmly in the hall.
At first glance, it was really the old man of the Meng family.
After Mr. Meng saw the ceremony, Taiping asked, "Mr. Meng, why did you come to the Eastern Capital?" Could it be that the Meng family's business has already reached Luoyang? ”
After speaking, Princess Taiping stared at Old Man Meng without blinking.
Speaking from the bottom of her heart, she didn't want to say anything about herself, hoping that the old man in front of her could bring her some other surprises.
And Mr. Meng really didn't disappoint Taiping, "Your Highness said with a smile, the little old man doesn't have that much ability, so he stretched out his hand to the capital." ”
"I came thousands of miles this time just to send something to His Highness."
"What's that?"
I saw the old man Meng reaching into his arms, taking out a business deed and holding it in front of Taiping.
"Someone asked Xiao Lao'er to give this business deed to His Highness."
Taiping took a look, "!! He stood up in a flash.
"He.... When will it be handed over to you!? ”
"Ten days ago."
Ten days ago?
Ten days ago!?
Ten days ago, it was a few days after the Descending Mountain Pass exterminated the clan.
"He...."Taiping only felt a little difficult to breathe, "He's still alive?" ”
"Alive!"
"Are you alright?"
"It's not good, it's a lot less talking than before."
"That's... So where is he!? ”
Uncle Meng shook his head, "Now the little old man doesn't know." He handed over the business deed to Xiao Lao'er and asked me to pass it on to Her Royal Highness the Princess, and then left. ”
"Didn't he say where he went?"
"Nope. only said that there will be no him in the future, and His Highness will be careful in everything. ”
"He's gone?"
Taiping sat back in a daze, stunned for a long time.
"Then, what was his purpose in giving this to this palace?"
Taiping shook the business deed in his hand, that was a part of Miaoyifang. There are as many as eighty percent, and all of them were given to Princess Taiping.
Mr. Meng replied: "He said that there were only forty percent of His Highness in this, and he accounted for forty percent. The little old man is not talented, and he is greedy for two percent. ”
"However, now he doesn't need it, so he will give it to His Highness."
“......”
Taiping had mixed feelings in his heart at this time, and he couldn't tell what it was like.
There is both the joy that Wu Ning is still alive, but more melancholy.
After all, he gave himself all the wonderful clothes shop, and disappeared without a trace.
It may really be as said at the time of separation, goodbye is indefinite.
Thinking of this, Taiping regretted it a little.
If she didn't return to Beijing that day, she stayed in Fangzhou, maybe Wu Chengsi and Li Chen wouldn't dare to act rashly.
If she insisted on bringing Wu Ning back when she was leaving, maybe she would have been well protected in Beijing, and she would not have fallen to the point where she is today.
But no, even if you stay in Fangzhou, even if you take him back to the capital, she is just an idle princess, can she protect him?
"Power!!"
Taiping thought of power, and she had never wanted it so much as she did now.
When he came back to his senses, he saw that Mr. Meng was already standing there with his bow, "He.... He didn't say, is he still coming back? ”
"I didn't say it."
Old man Meng answered truthfully.
"However, he has one thing to ask His Highness."
"What's the matter!?"
"He wants His Highness to help him save the lives of Wu Chengsi and Li Chen as much as he can."
"Why?"
Yes, Princess Taiping's reaction now is the same as when Meng Daoye was the same.
He's crazy!
I only heard Uncle Meng say: "He said...."
"What did he say?"
"He said..."Old man Meng couldn't speak anymore, and secretly said in his heart, what kind of person does this have to be able to say such cruel words!
"He wants to keep all the lives of those who have enmity with the Wu family..... Wait for him to pick it up in person! ”
"Whew...."
Unlike Meng Cangsheng, Taiping was not only not surprised when he heard this, but instead grew a breath of turbidity.
This is the careful-eyed Wu Laojiu she knows, this is Wu Ning!
And, when he comes to pick it up in person, it means that he will come back.
No matter what time it is, he will come back eventually.
No matter what kind of posture it takes, we can see you again after all.
Taiping smiled, relieved with a smile, "If the old man is destined to see him again, help Bengong tell him." ”
"Hongu will wait for him to come back!"
.....
————————————
The land of Bashu, the country of abundance, Xinzhou, Shehong County.
To tell the truth, although Xinzhou is not a rich place like Yizhou, Bazhou, and Yuzhou, it has the benefit of the Chengdu Plain, and it is exactly in the middle of Yizhou, Bazhou, and Yuzhou, and it is not two hundred miles away from anyone, and the river network is dense, so it is extremely convenient to go anywhere.
More fortunately, Xinzhou is rich in salt brine and is an important salt-producing place in Bashu.
In ancient times, it didn't matter where you were, as long as you had salt, you would be rich.
Therefore, Xinzhou is not famous, but there are a lot of merchants in Xinzhou.
It can be said that the people of Xinzhou are accustomed to seeing the south and the north going back and forth without leaving home.
Even if Shehong is such a small county, it is not unseen in the world.
Not to mention the travelers who speak various dialects in various parts of the Tang Dynasty, even the red-haired Hu people and the Tibetan monks in Tibet, it is not strange.
But today, the people of Shehong were stunned.
A Taoist priest came to the gate of the city, leading a group of little apprentices, which really opened the eyes of the people who shot the flood.
The Taoist priest is nothing, his eyebrows are clear, his eyes are beautiful, and his body is handsome, except for a Taoist robe that is a little shabby, obviously he has not had time to change it after a long journey.
The strange thing is that the group of little Taoist priests behind him saw that everyone was carrying a stone weighing twenty or thirty catties on their shoulders.
The hearts of the people said, I have seen people carrying gold and silver, but I have never seen people carrying stones into the city from afar!
There are good-looking and lively scoundrels who have already begun to ridicule from afar, "Dare to ask Dao Master, where is this fighting?" ”
The Taoist priest didn't speak, but he was carrying the stone, and the oldest and strongest man had a dark face, and it was estimated that this one was not less molested.
Glaring at the beads of his eyes, "I want you to come out and talk more!?" ”
"Yo!!" splashed music, and he was not angry, "Listen to the accent, this is from the Jinghu area!" ”
"It's... Come and sell stones for me? ”
"Come on, come on, tell you, who are you going to sell the stones from Jinghu Lake all the way away?"
“......”
“......”
The group of people carrying the stone were speechless, and they all glared at the Taoist priest in front of them,
The most handsome little Taoist priest even secretly said: "What a bad idea!?" Shame on the dead! ”
Another young man of his age and a little fierce looked was bitter and hunched over, obviously pressed by the stone.
"Almost, isn't this all in place?"
The Taoist priest turned around, it was none other than Meng Cangsheng.
And with stones on their backs, all of them are bitter and hateful, it is the Wu family brothers, as well as Li Wenbo and Chef Luo.
I saw Meng Cangsheng smile indifferently, "Okay, from today onwards, Dao Ye will teach you martial arts." ”
......
————————————
It all started more than a month ago, on that snowy night.
Everyone left Fangzhou at night, all the way to the east, until dawn to find a shelter to settle down.
The sudden big change, for the half-grown children of the Wu family, it was almost a bolt from the blue, and the blow was very big.
Meng Cangsheng knew that it was useless to say anything at this time, and they could only slowly recover their souls by themselves. Or count on Wu Ning to make everyone reinvigorate.
However, it is obvious that Wu Ning can't count on it at this time.
Wu Laojiu didn't have time to take care of everyone now, he quickly went through the whole thing over and over again in his mind, and thought of all the possible situations in advance in advance.
Yes, he was indeed the hope of his brothers, but because of this, he could not leave the slightest mistake.
Because, the Wu family can't afford to lose.
In case you didn't expect it, if you didn't expect it, then these brothers don't talk about revenge, it's a question of whether they can survive or not.
Therefore, I really can't count on Wu Ning now.
However, at this time, Wu Ning couldn't count on it, but another person stood up.
And this person is actually a tiger, but no one thought of it.
......
"I want to learn martial arts and avenge my mother!"
In the wilderness, Wu Sanhu's abrupt sentence surprised Meng Daoye and made everyone stunned.
"You taught me martial arts." Huzi repeated stupidly, "I want to avenge my mother, I want to find my sister." ”
Meng Cangsheng furrowed his brows, and looked at Wu Li, Wu Qi, and Luo Li, and they all looked over.
With a move in his heart, he raised the corners of his mouth and said, "Learn martial arts?" ”
"Just you?"
"That's right! Just me! ”
"Learning martial arts is not as simple as you holding your job and gnawing on it, are you sure you want to learn it?"
"Sure!" Huzi looked at Meng Daoye directly, "I want to avenge my mother, I want to find my sister." ”
"Okay!"
Meng Daoye raised his eyebrows, "If you want to learn martial arts, you can, go, find a stone." ”
Huzi paused, and finally obediently touched a stone from under his feet.
"It's too small."
Huzi glanced around, and picked up a fist-sized one.
"It's still not big enough."
Huzi was anxious, stared at the beads of his eyes and searched for a long time, and finally hugged a big stone of at least forty or fifty catties in his arms.
"Is that enough!?"
"Enough, enough."
Meng Daoye is stumbling, it's a bit big!
However, if you want to take revenge, you must have extraordinary martial arts. If you want to have extraordinary martial arts, you have to pay sweat that ordinary people can't reach.
That's it!
Pointing to the stone, he said, "From today onwards, it will follow you." Take it with you and take it all the way to Shuzhong, and I will teach you martial arts and let you take revenge! ”
"Good!"
Huzi agreed without hesitation, and really sat on the side of the road with a stone.
Wu Li looked at it, stood up, and picked up a stone beside him, this one was even more ruthless, and hugged a piece of fifty pounds.
"Take it to Shuzhong and teach me martial arts?"
Meng Daoye nodded, "That's right!" You have to hold me when you sleep, and I'll teach you. ”
So, when Raleigh heard this, he didn't say a word, and hugged a stone.
Li Wenbo, Lao Qi and Lao Eleven also silently found a stone to hold.
Of course, Wu Qi is not lagging behind, and this one is quite "interesting", so he first found a piece and stuffed it into Wu Ning's arms, "You don't have to look for it, I'll bring it for you!" Then he went to find his own piece.
Wu Ning: "......"
It's also a dog, Wu Ning's face is green, is it good to use your brain? Why don't you give me a rock to!?
I wanted to throw it away, but Meng Daoye's words made Wu Ning dispel this idea.
"Everyone is looking at you, you have to take this lead!"
Wu Ning: "......"
MMP!!
......
So, from Fangzhou to Xiangzhou, and then from Xiangzhou over the mountains and mountains to Xinzhou to shoot floods, pedestrians saw this strange scene:
A Taoist priest led a group of apprentices, and one of them hurried away with a stone.
It's really strange that there are many things every year, especially this year!
Moreover, Meng Daoye obviously succeeded, and along the way, these eight people immediately stopped being depressed, and they didn't have the strength to be depressed.
The smallest stone has to be about 30 catties, carrying 30 catties of stones over the mountains and mountains, and they are almost tired of being a bastard, how can they be depressed?
The only bit of idle time was used to hate Meng Cangsheng.
This grandson is not a thing, carrying stones and blocks to hurry, not only tired, but also very embarrassing!!
Moreover, the most unlucky one is Wu Laojiu, and my brother doesn't learn martial arts, why do I have to suffer this foreign crime with you?
......
Actually, Meng Daoye still has his reasons for doing this.
First, use physical pain to divert psychological pain.
Second, of course, to learn martial arts, you must have a foundation, to have perseverance, this way over the mountains and mountains, more than a thousand miles, if they can persevere, then not only shows that there is perseverance, but also for the muscles and bones to boil a lot of help.
In fact, from the moment Huzi picked up the stone, Meng Daoye was already teaching them martial arts.
......
As soon as they heard Meng Daoye say that this was done, everyone was relieved.
But I saw Meng Daoye walking to Wu Ning's side, "Now it's time for you to say, since you have entered Shu, you don't go to the gang or go to your father-in-law, but what are you doing here to shoot floods?" ”
Wu Ning gasped, this way could exhaust him.
"Apprentice!"
"Apprenticeship?"
Dao Ye was proud for a while, "Okay, I'll reluctantly accept you as an apprentice." ”
"You?" Wu Laojiu glanced at him.
"Bad to pus, you are also worthy?"
Looking at the people coming and going in Shehong County, "I'm here to find Chen Ziang." ”
Burst!!
Meng Daoye sprayed directly.
"What are you looking for him?"
"You've got rocks in your head, right? Didn't I tell you? Apprentice! ”
Meng Cangsheng: "......"
The heart said, didn't I just let you carry the stones all the way, as for the resentment, is it so big?
......
