Linglong County Lord-Accompanying the Descending Mountain (123)
"Okay", the Queen Mother patted Concubine Ji's hand: "You accompany the old man of the mourning family to worship the Buddha all day long, it's always boring, today Commander He wants to go down the mountain to purchase supplies, you also go shopping together, buy some you like?" ”
Concubine Ji shook her head: "Worshipping the Buddha is not boring, besides, I don't lack anything." In front of the Queen Mother, Concubine Ji had to learn from Qi Scaryin's original style of doing everything, Qi Scarlet Yin accompanied the Queen Mother to worship all day long, she had to come to worship the Buddha often, Qi Scarlet Yin didn't like to dress up, she had to dress plain and elegant, and shopping in the bazaar in this kind of deserted place was not in her plan.
"Why isn't there anything missing from the little girl's family?" The Queen Mother frowned and said seriously: "At your age, it is the best time, you must know how to dress yourself, you are either white or blue all day long, and the mourning family is a little too angry when you see it." ”
"This", Concubine Ji was a little confused, and said tentatively: "Does the Queen Mother want Scarlet Yin to dress festively?" ”
The Queen Mother smiled, wrinkles appeared at the corners of her eyes: "Later, I will go to Commander He and ask him to take you out of the temple, and all the expenses will be paid by Commander He to help you, buy more brightly colored clothes, and buy a few sets of headdresses you like." ”
"This ......" Concubine Ji was a little embarrassed.
Seeing this, the Queen Mother continued: "One day we will go back to the palace, and it's not good to be so pure, you know?" ”
"Yes, Scarlet gets it."
The Queen Mother nodded and waved her hand: "Then you can go out first, I don't need you to accompany the mourning family to worship the Buddha today." With that, the Queen Mother closed her eyes and continued to recite the Buddhist scriptures reverently.
"Yes." Concubine Ji got up slowly, lifted her skirt, walked out of the ancestral hall, and reflexively gently closed the door.
"The county lord is coming out now?" When Mama Yan saw Concubine Ji coming out, she immediately stepped forward and asked.
Concubine Ji bowed her head, and her voice was gentle and soft: "Back to Mama Yan, the Queen Mother asked me to go out of the temple with He Tong, and I won't worship the Buddha today." ”
Mama Yan was slightly surprised, but then withdrew her expression.
"Since that's the case, then Mama Yan, I'll give the county lord a ride."
"Thank you." Concubine Ji said by the way, maybe Commander He is not an important person in the plot, so there is no description of his appearance in the plot, so it is really difficult for Concubine Ji to find Commander He in the huge temple.
Concubine Ji followed Mama Yan all the way, while instructing the system to use data to enter the route of the Holy Light Temple, in case she couldn't find the way in the future.
Along the way, the sight is luxuriant bushes and scorching peach blossoms, lining this Holy Light Temple is not like a temple, but more like a fairyland on earth, unconsciously the two walked to the gate, well-trained, neat and uniform guards uniformly dressed in black armor in front of the door, the front is a particularly tall man, the distance is a little far, Concubine Ji Yinka is not very clear about the appearance of the man, but from a distance, the man's posture is upright, strong as a tree.
Seeing Mama Yan walking towards the gate with Concubine Ji, the man seemed to notice something, glanced at this side, waved his hand, and signaled the guards to stop, as soon as the guards stopped, Mama Yan and Concubine Ji quickly caught up with the guards.
At this time, Concubine Ji saw the appearance of the tall man led by her thoroughly, about thirty or forty years old, with a slight beard, and her appearance was not particularly handsome, but she had a pair of extremely cold and indifferent eyes.
"Hello Mama Yan." The tall man at the head politely bowed his hand to Mama Yan.
"He is in command." Mama Yan immediately returned the salute.
"I've seen the county lord of Linglong." He led the court and concubine Ji to bow his hand.
Concubine Ji smiled softly because of her gentleness: "Commander He doesn't have to be so formal. With this laugh, Concubine Ji clearly heard a clearly visible gasping sound from the group of guards.
Unexpectedly, the face of the person who called "He Commander" did not change, and he seemed to be extremely serious.
"Etiquette cannot be abolished, etiquette is etiquette, the subordinate should have performed such etiquette when he saw the county lord, and asked the county lord to forgive me." Commander He had a serious face, and his tone was a little serious, and then, Commander He looked at Mama Yan.
"Mama Yan is here now, but what does the Queen Mother command?"
Mama Yan: "The Queen Mother asked the county lord Linglong to go out with you to buy some things, and there is nothing else to do." ”
"Yes, my subordinates obey." Commander He was stunned for a moment, and then looked at Concubine Ji: "My subordinates don't know that the county lord of Linglong is also going to travel together, and I haven't had time to prepare the horse and car, so please wait for a while." ”
"No problem." I'm afraid that if I say "it's okay, you can walk", this one-eyed commander He will not agree, if the original owner Qi Feiyin encounters this situation, he should also return = will stay where he is and wait for the carriage to come before leaving, and he can't do anything that goes against the original owner's design.
"You guys, go get a carriage to come over and make it more comfortable." Commander He turned around and commanded two of the guards.
"Yes!" Hearing the order, the expressions of the two of them who were talking and laughing a second ago instantly ended, and they ran away in small steps.
Seeing this, Mama Yan nodded and said to Commander He: "The Queen Mother's instructions have been passed on, and since this is the case, now Mama I will accompany the Queen Mother." ”
"My subordinates must ensure the safety of the county lord." He led the bowing of his head.
"The Queen Mother has always trusted you the most." Mama Yan's tone was full of appreciation and trust, and she turned to leave.
Now only Concubine Ji and Commander He and a group of guards are waiting at the door, but they are just going down the mountain to purchase some ordinary materials, and they need to leave the guards to guard the Shengguang Temple. Otherwise, Commander He would not have ordered two guards to prepare the carriage soon.
"You, according to what I just said, are scattered in various positions of the Holy Light Temple, patrolling separately, and you must protect the safety of the Queen Mother!" Commander He's voice was extremely loud.
"Yes!" As soon as these words came out, all the guards ran to various places in the Holy Light Temple in an orderly manner, until they surrounded the Holy Light Temple.
At this time, there were only two people left, Ji Feiyin and He Commander, who had watched the scenery for a long time, decided to explore Commander He and ask some news about this Eastern Tang Kingdom, especially the royal news, which would also help her complete the task.
"Ahem, He Ling has extraordinary energy, and he looks like a person who has practiced martial arts since childhood?" Ji Feiyin, who had been thinking about the opening words for a long time, finally asked.
Hearing this, Commander He glanced at Concubine Ji strangely: "Yes." ”
Concubine Ji is in her heart: ......
However, this is also good to answer his own words, it is a hundred times better than coldly ignoring people, it seems that this Commander He is not as indifferent as he seems.
"I've been in this Shengguang Temple since I was a child, although I often go down the mountain, but after all, it's just a remote town, to be honest, I don't even know what the outside world is like now." Concubine Ji spoke slowly, and her face seemed to be touched.
Commander He's face froze: "The county lord doesn't have to be like this, one day, the county lord will return to the palace, and that is the county lord's home." "For the lord of Linglong, Commander He can be regarded as growing up, when he was a child, he loved to laugh, he was very lively, and often begged himself to play with her, but although she was a woman, she was not as delicate as Miss Jiao, and she often caused some trouble, and then gradually became silent, becoming more like Miss Boudoir, seeing that she had learned to call herself dignified and dignified, "He Commander", He Gu thought of the things of seven years ago, and couldn't help but feel a lot of emotion in her heart.
"Commander He is right, but I don't know anything about the palace now, and I have been away from the palace for a long time, so I'm afraid that I will be separated from your sisters." Concubine Ji said as if it was true, and the corners of her eyes were slightly moist.
Seeing this, He Gu frowned.
"If the county lord wants to know about the palace, his subordinates have also heard a lot, and it just so happens that the carriage has not arrived yet, why don't his subordinates tell the county lord a little?" Although he lives in the Shengguang Temple all the year round, he always has to return to the palace one day a month to report the situation of the Shengguang Temple to the Holy Lord, so he has seen a lot of things in the palace, plus he is well-informed, and he also knows a lot of secrets that the Eastern Tang Dynasty, including the children of the royal family, does not know.
Concubine Ji couldn't ask for it, so she waited for He Gu to speak, and now that He Gu took the initiative to bring it up, how could Concubine Ji easily let go of this opportunity?
"Please also ask Commander He to talk about the scarlet sound, I haven't seen you sisters for a long time, and I am very worried about it." As soon as these words came out, it was extremely false, don't say that Concubine Ji has nothing to do with the nobles of the Eastern Tang Dynasty royal family, so she said that the original owner Qi Feiyin herself, although she lived in the palace for a while, but she was still young at that time, what impression can she have of the sisters of the royal family? Not to mention that I haven't seen him for many years, maybe I won't even recognize my appearance.
"There are not many princesses in the Eastern Tang Dynasty today, there are four people, the eldest princess is the queen, known as the first beauty of the Eastern Tang Dynasty, this year has been twenty, but because of infatuation with one person, he refused to marry, the emperor pampered the queen again, felt sorry for his daughter, and let her go, the second princess is from Hua Concubine, this year's eighteen, good musical instruments, there is already a marriage match, the third princess is the same size as the county lord, only one day younger than the county lord, it is Shu Guifei, has not been married, its temperament is also very lively, the emperor also likes it very much, the fourth princess is the child of Li Guiren, Just after the full moon, the emperor is old and has a son, and he is also very fond of the fourth princess. ”
Concubine Ji nodded: "Back then, I only remembered that the eldest princess was very beautiful, but I didn't know that she was the first beauty in the Eastern Tang Dynasty, and I don't know when, the emperor added another sister, and it really didn't make sense." ”
Seeing Concubine Ji's somewhat regretful look, He Gu somehow remembered the girl who was holding his trouser leg and asking for a rock sugar gourd, and this look was just the same as when she was young.
"The county lord is also good-looking, so you don't have to envy the eldest princess."
Concubine Ji blinked: "How does that compare to the eldest princess?" ”
"This", He Gu was a little embarrassed, and finally decided to tell the truth: "It's just a little worse, the eldest princess is from a noble background after all, and the name of the first beauty in the Eastern Tang Dynasty falls on her is worthy of her name." ”
