Chapter 272: The Queen Worships the Buddha

Qu Ping became vigilant, not knowing what they wanted to do. However, judging from their facial expressions, it didn't look like they were going to do anything to Qu Ping.

The woman at the head exchanged a few words with the two Siamese, and the Siamese made a gesture with Qu Ping, as if she wanted to take Qu Ping to meet someone somewhere.

As long as it's not a fight, Qu Ping's six people have little chance of winning against so many enemies, but Qu Ping and Li Jun should be able to retreat with their whole body.

Judging from the Siamese people's description of women's body movements, Qu Ping guessed: "Is it to see their queen?" ”

When the Siamese people made this set of actions to describe women, the female leader outside showed a very disgusted look on her face, feeling that this was a great disrespect to them.

Qu Ping nodded to the female leader and said, "Thank you for leading the way!" ”

Is it a blessing or a curse, but a disaster can't be avoided, just go with them, can the queen still eat herself?

Seeing that Qu Ping readily agreed, the female leader was still expressionless, with a stroke face.

She turned, the crowd made a way, and she took the lead.

The people behind beckoned Qu Ping and the others to go out on the road, Qu Ping saw that the other party had no means of transportation, and he was embarrassed to ride the elephant again, so the six people led the elephant and followed the group on foot.

After walking for two days, I finally saw a bigger place than the city of the woman with the stroke face before.

The crowds and buildings are all of a certain size, especially the temples, which stand everywhere.

It seems that we have arrived at the royal city of the Queen's Kingdom.

After entering the city, the female leader with a stroke face didn't say a word, and directly took Qu Ping and the others to a temple.

The temple is decorated with golden splendor, and the huge golden body of the Buddha inside is shining with golden light, and the right hand is holding the Buddha seal, which seems to be able to resolve all the suffering in the world.

A woman wearing a golden crown was praying incense in front of the Buddha, and there were many other women around, and at first glance they were subordinates of the woman who was praying in front of her.

The female leader with a stroke face took Qu Ping and his party into the Buddhist hall, and the woman who did not dare to disturb the prayer in front of the Buddha waited quietly, while signaling Qu Ping and others with her eyes not to make noise.

Qu Ping knew religious etiquette, and of course he wouldn't talk nonsense.

He looked at the woman praying in front of the Buddha, in addition to the golden crown on her head, there was also a golden light shining on her neck, presumably she also wore gold bracelets on her hands and wrists. From head to toe.

Could this woman be the queen of the Queen's Kingdom? The Queen's Kingdom has been passed down from generation to women, but what does it depend on?

The women around them began to pay attention to Qu Ping's people who had rushed in, but their expressions were calm, and they could not see their joys and sorrows.

After a while, the woman with the golden crown finally finished her prayer. She turned around and looked at Qu Ping, without the slightest expression of surprise, with a hint of a smile on her face.

Qu Ping looked at the woman completely, and sure enough, she was dressed in local tyrant gold from head to toe, and the golden light on her neck and head was shining on her face, making her face also have a golden light. There is a bewitching beauty in her face, and with her eyes, there is a charm in all kinds of styles, and there is a sense of non-blasphemy.

This woman, in her thirties, has a mysterious eye that does not have the domineering of the powerful, nor is there ignorance and emptiness.

In short, it gives people the feeling of wanting to be close but not daring to blaspheme, similar to divinity.

Qu Ping retracted his gaze, this woman's eyes were too terrifying.

The female leader with a stroke face walked over and said something to the woman in her thirties.

The woman nodded, still with a light smile on her face, and walked towards Qu Ping with a fragrant wind.

Qu Ping took everyone to fold their hands and saluted, and said: "Qu Ping, the king of Xiang of the Great Song Dynasty, has seen the honorable driver. ”

"I am the king here, and you Central Plains like to call my kingdom the queen." It turned out that this woman was the queen of the queen, and she could still speak Chinese, and her accent was still eight or nine.

Qu Pingse said happily: "It turned out to be Her Majesty, you can speak Chinese, it's really good!" ”

"Hehe, I have a Chinese teacher, when she comes back in two days, I will introduce you to you." The queen always has a smile on her face when she speaks, which makes people feel very close to each other, both audibly and visually.

Qu Ping did not comment, but said: "This king visited your country by the holy decree of the Great Song Emperor, hoping that the two countries will be friendly and benefit the people." ”

The queen said, "It is a coincidence that two months ago I also sent away a few hundred people, and they also said that they came by decree." ”

Qu Ping saw that the queen had revealed his lie, so he asked, "But there is a woman with a little girl?" ”

"That's right, there is also a bald monk, I kindly left him here to open the altar to preach, but he deceived and wanted to fall into the mundane and refused to settle in." The queen said jokingly, without the slightest hint of regret.

Qu Ping said: "If you don't enter the WTO, how can you be born?" As long as there is a Buddha in the heart, you can achieve positive results everywhere. ”

"What King Xiang said is very true. Rest assured, I have successfully sent them back to the Great Song Dynasty. ”

"Thank you, Queen, Qu is here to thank Your Majesty again!" Qu Ping sincerely clasped his hands together.

The queen let out a silver bell-like "giggle" laugh and said, "The day after tomorrow is the birthday of the Buddha, and King Xiang must be invited to participate in it." Other things, when you have rested, we will talk about it slowly. ”

Since the queen was so polite, Qu Ping agreed: "Then thank the queen for her hospitality." ”

"Until then, don't run around, or I won't find you, and I'll be in a hurry."

"It's all up to the Queen."

"In the past two days, this king has also been busy with the Buddha's birthday, and I am afraid that I will not be able to entertain you in person, please forgive me. I'll send someone to receive you, my guests! After the queen finished speaking, she beckoned a woman in her twenties to come by, instructed her, and then said to Qu Ping, "Her name is Ji Ya, and she will receive you all the time in the past two days, and she will try her best to meet all your requirements." ”

Qu Ping thanked Ji Ya and said, "Then it will be troublesome for Miss Ji Ya." "Dream life

Ji Ya didn't speak, and bowed to Qu Ping with a smile.

I don't know if Jiya doesn't want to speak, or if she can't speak, she hasn't spoken since the queen told her.

The queen chatted with Ji Ya and said to Qu Ping: "Let Ji Ya take you to the residence first, please forgive this king for missing him!" ”

Qu Ping was polite to the queen, and then followed Ji Ya to the residence first.

Two Siamese people led the elephant to follow behind, all the way to the eye.

The temple is more than half an hour away from the palace, and Qu Ping's accommodation is not far from the palace, and you can see the walls of the palace when you look up.

The dwelling was a courtyard with two Siamese people living in one room and the other four in one room each, and two elephants tied to the middle of the yard.

There were also several rooms on either side of the courtyard gate, which were the rooms of the male servants. Because Ji Ya had to receive Qu Ping all the way, she also lived in one.

When the Siamese were polite to Jiya, Jiya did not speak, except for nodding his head or waving his hand.

It can be inferred from this that nine times out of ten, Jiya should be mute, or she was ordered by the queen not to speak.

The queen sent a mute to receive Qu Ping, I don't know what it meant.

After eating, Li Jun, Zhuang Wei and Xiao Hei gathered in Qu Ping's room, and everyone sat cross-legged on the ground to discuss Her Majesty the Queen who they saw in the temple today.

Li Jun said: "The yin qi of this queen country is too strong, which makes people feel unnatural. And this queen, who is in her thirties, is like a wolf and a tiger. Lord, I think she seems to be able to eat you! ”

Qu Ping knew that Li Jun was joking, and said, "Come on, I'm not Tang Seng, everyone wants to eat when they see me." Besides, she has to be a youkai to be interested in eating me. ”

Zhuang Wei said: "The queen's look and temperament, compared with those indifferent faces next to her, is simply a feeling of standing out from the crowd!" ”

"You see that, too? This contrast has a feeling of abnormality. It was as if everyone else was a wooden person, only she was carved into ice. Qu Ping said.

Li Jun joked: "Men can't understand the world of women!" Probably this is how the queen is above the others. Legend has it that she has 800 female generals, if they are all with this expression, this face, I can't even think of it! I thought about it at night and had a nightmare! ”

In two days' time, you will have the opportunity to meet with the Queen and learn more. Qu Ping said: "This may be their regime model, and we, as outsiders, can't talk about it indiscriminately." As long as they live happily, you don't care if they laugh or cry. Right, Blackie? ”

Xiao Hei smiled with his trademark teeth, nodded and said, "Hmm! "I guess he didn't understand what everyone was saying.

The next day, everyone was bored in the courtyard, so they told Jiya that they wanted to go out for a walk.

Ji Ya waved her hand and shook her head, and used two fingers to draw a figure like a person walking, and then drew a big circle with both arms, which probably means that tomorrow is the Buddha's birthday, and now there are many people outside, don't go out.

Qu Ping also gestured to her, saying that we would go out for a walk and not cause trouble.

I don't know if Jiya can understand it.

The two people exchanged their heads with gestures to the horse's mouth, and Ji Ya had no choice, so in the end he had to call more than a dozen people together to protect Qu Ping and the four of them to go out.

Qu Ping pointed to the palace not far away, indicating that he wanted to go around the palace.

Jiya nodded in embarrassment and agreed.

Li Jun complained: "What does this queen think, what kind of hospitality is this to send a dumb person to receive us?" She doesn't take you and Da Song in her eyes! ”

Although Ji Ya may not understand what everyone is saying, how to blatantly criticize her in front of others, Qu Ping thinks it is impolite.

Qu Ping said: "Okay, Jiya is hard-working, don't call her dumb." Even if we send someone who can speak, we still can't speak with him, and the result is not the same? ”

Li Jun said: "Anyway, I feel heartwarming. ”

Fortunately, Jiya met Qu Ping's request and took them around the outside of the palace.

The palace is not large, estimated to be the size of three football fields, and it should be the queen's residence and office and political place. The two gates in front and back of the palace were guarded by more than 20 people, and the soldiers were all men. The castle wall is a civil structure, about four meters high, and the four corners of the wall are lined with canopies, on which you can see soldiers on duty with bows and arrows.

The people in the city today are indeed not as much as they saw yesterday, probably because of the Buddha's birthday.

Buddhism was born in ancient India around the fifth century B.C., and gradually spread eastward through continuous improvement and development, before being introduced to Southeast Asia around the seventh century A.D.

People in Southeast Asia believe in Buddhism, which has gone deep into their bones.

The women of the Queen's Kingdom were of high status, and a large number of women could be seen on the streets, which was very different from the situation in other parts of the era.

It took only half an hour to return to the place of residence after a circle.

The sun was almost overhead, and there were more and more people outside.

When they arrived at the gate of the courtyard, Ji Ya bowed down and asked Qu Ping and the four of them to go in and rest.

The city was small and there was no place to watch, Qu Ping had long lost interest, so he sold Ji Ya a face, and went back to the house to sit and wait for lunch.

Two Siamese people were bathing and brushing the elephant's back in the yard when they saw Qu Ping coming back and greeted him politely.

Qu Ping and the four of them went back to the house and waited for the meal time to get together and chat.

Qu Ping pushed open the door of his room, and at a glance he saw that there was an extra thing on the table-

A pear.
