Chapter 50: Death is Short

The Qi dialect in the mouths of Prince Jian and Hou Sheng, Mingyue could only half understand it. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 The gap between Zhao Yan and Qi Yan is much worse than that of Hebei and Shanfang dialects in later generations, but fortunately, they can barely communicate through the Mandarin "Yayan" of this era, which is a necessary skill for princes, diplomatic envoys, and lobbyists from all over the world.

Out of hospitality, even if Prince Qi didn't wait to see Mingyue again, he invited him to join the car, ride the Luan Yu's chariot, drive the Xuanjie horse, and go to the palace.

When he was in the Zhao Kingdom, Mingyue heard about the grandeur of the Qi Palace from the mouth of the Empress Dowager Zhao, but in his mind, after the Qi Kingdom experienced the disaster of the fall of Linzi, this palace was afraid that it had been destroyed. Unexpectedly, after entering the palace to take a look, he found that the palace with the utmost craftsmanship was still there.

Qi people like the pavilion architecture more than Zhao State, starting from Jiang Qi, almost every monarch will build a high platform of their own, and the successive kings of Tian Qi have also inherited this hobby. Therefore, in the palace city of Linzi, there are countless high-platform buildings standing like a pyramid, the base is very wide, and the surrounding is inlaid with smooth stones, and it is magnificent to look at.

Prince Jian is probably very proud of his own desk room, and has been pointing fingers, as if he is making an introduction to Mingyue.

"That's the Yaotai Palace, built by my great-grandfather King Wei, it is the tallest building in the palace, and on it, you can see most of Linzi."

"This is the Great Room Palace, which was built by my great-grandfather King Xuan, and this hall covers an area of 100 acres, and the hall above it is also very large, and there are 300 rooms in it. This project is so huge, with the wealth of the Qi country, it was not completed for three years, and it was not finally completed until my grandfather King Min succeeded to the throne. ”

Between the high platforms, there are many harem courtyards and concubines' halls, which are complicated and reciprocating, and they are extremely clever and poor. There is also a garden pond spiritual garden, but I see that it is full of rare and exotic grasses, such as Du Ruofan chrysanthemum, Shi Lan Zhihui, and purple stem Danying......

Along the way, this little fat man of the same age as Mingyue had a smug face, and asked Mingyue, how is it compared to the palace of Zhao State?

Mingyue said with a haha: "Qi Palace is the best in the world, Zhao is not as good as it." ”

He flattered him on his lips, but he didn't think so in his heart, although he could boast of "magnificent", but in fact, the tallest building in the Qi Palace was not necessarily grander than the county government compound in a small county town in his previous life; As for those parks, they don't look much different from a small park in later generations, is it worth noting?

In this Qi Palace, it is okay to look at the antique and experience the customs of the Warring States Period, but it can't make him feel "shocked" and "envious" at all.

Is Prince Jian really a hillbilly who is entering the city for the first time?

But the crown prince Jianbian found a sense of superiority in this show-off, and began to remember the long history of the palace of Qi.

"Eight hundred years ago, Linzi was built as a city, Chang'anjun, at that time, Handan was still a quagmire wilderness, right?"

Prince Jian's contempt for Zhao Guo was overflowing, Mingyue felt very uncomfortable, and after enduring it for a while, she suddenly asked: "Prince, I don't know where the platform of the road bed is?" ”

The crown prince was stunned for a moment, pointed to the grand Xia Hall in front of him, and said in a tall pavilion: "The platform of the road bed is the main hall in the palace, and my father will meet you there." ”

Mingyue said with a smile: "These days, I have also read a lot of slips related to the Qi Kingdom, and there is a paragraph that is recorded like this, Qi Jinggong sat on the platform of the road bed, and said: 'Beautiful room! Who will do this? Yan Zi said, "Qi Tian's family? 'Today's road to the bed, Linzi Palace, has really changed his surname, Yan Zi is really a wise man. ”

Prince Jian was silent for a moment, and he couldn't show it anymore.

Chang'anjun's meaning is very clear, no matter how ancient the palace of Linzi is, it is also a matter of Jiang Qi's time, your Tian family is the same as my Zhao family, and they are all scolded by Zhuangzi as "those who steal hooks are punished, and those who steal the country are princes". Although the two families cannot be said to be nouveau riche, after all, they are both not righteous, and from the year they were listed as princes, Zhao was more than ten years earlier than Tian Qi! What kind of flowers can be compared in this way?

On weekdays, no one has ever dared to choke Prince Jian like this, and this cautious little fat man suddenly became angry. Flick your sleeves, don't turn your face, and never say a word to Mingyue again......

……

After boarding the platform of the road bed and entering the main hall of the Qi Palace, Mingyue and Pingyuanjun passed through the passage between the two rows of Qi Guoqing's doctors, and the uncle and nephew met the King of Qi who sat on the throne one after the other.

Qi Wangtian Fazhang was dressed in a ceremonial dress, wearing a crown, wearing a black robe, a white belt around his waist, a yellow knees and a bare neck, and nine crowns hanging down on his face, making people unable to see his appearance clearly, only knowing that the beard was very long, reaching to his chest.

It is worth noting that on the side of the King of Qi, there is also a woman in a palace dress wearing a vermilion dark robe and golden luan embroidery, with jade clouds and sideburns, a little powder, and she is about forty years old, probably the wife of the King of Qi and the queen......

King Qi looked very kind, but his voice seemed to be lacking in anger: "Pingyuan Jun, I haven't seen you for a long time, is the Queen Mother of Zhao State okay?" Is King Zhao okay? ”

Pingyuanjun has seen a lot of this kind of occasion, coped with it decently, introduced Chang'anjun, and presented gifts.

"This is my sister's favorite bright moon? The widow and the queen have missed this nephew for a long time, so they take a few steps forward and let their uncle take a good look. ”

King Qi asked Mingyue to take a few steps forward and look at him carefully, and Mingyue also took the opportunity to see King Qi's appearance clearly.

Qi Wang Tian Fazhang and Empress Dowager Zhao are brother and sister, and Mingyue has to call him "uncle". At first glance, he looks very similar to the Empress Dowager Zhao, but the Empress Dowager Zhao is either majestic or gentle, but Tian Fazhang gives Mingyue the impression that she is yin and sick. His complexion was sickly sallow, and he coughed incessantly while looking at Mingyue with a pair of small eyes.

"Okay, my sister has a good girl, much better than my son."

King Qi coughed a few times before letting Mingyue retreat, and pointed at the prince: "Prince, Qi and Zhao are like brothers, Chang'an Jun is also your cousin, this beautiful son, Dr. Mink Bo has always been difficult to convince people, but he is full of praise." In the future, Chang'anjun will live in Linzi, and you should ask him for advice. ”

"Only ...... The kid knows. ”

The prince promised to promise, but secretly pouted, very disdainful.

During this period, the queen did not say a word, and gave all the words to King Qi, but Mingyue carefully found that her hand had been quietly supporting King Qi's back, and there was a trace of anxiety hidden in her seemingly calm eyes......

It happened suddenly, and Qi Wang Tian Fazhang wanted to say something with a smile, but a violent cough interrupted his words, and the calm and grace that Fang had just tried to make disappeared. King Qi's whole person seemed to be like a scalded prawn, leaning down on the table in front of the couch, covering his chest with his hands, his forehead was dripping with sweat, and his expression was painful!

Soon in the entire palace, only he was left with a retching cough!

"It's ...... What's wrong? ”

Pingyuan Jun was stunned by this sudden change, the ministers of Qi State were all frightened, and Prince Jian hurriedly trotted up, but the queen was still calm, patting the back for King Qi, while ordering her younger brother Housheng: "Quickly pass on the doctor!" ”

"No......" King Qi raised his hand to stop the queen, and tried to spit out the words: "Spread the ...... Legend Song is not jealous! ”

Hou Sheng took the order and left, the prince Jian and the ministers of Qi gathered in front of the king's couch and were concerned, Pingyuan Jun and Mingyue glanced at each other, and the two wanted to say the same thing: "King Qi is afraid that his life will not be long......"

Half a moment passed, and King Qi's cough still didn't get better, with a hoarse phlegm sound, his breathing was very long, and every sound seemed like the last time. Just when Mingyue thought that King Qi was about to die in the court like this, Hou Sheng pulled a white-haired old man back......

The old man looked fairy-like, with long sleeves fluttering, two white eyebrows drooping, and only a handful of white hair on his head remained, which was knotted into a small bun and fixed with a red silk belt.

After seeing him, the ministers of the Qi State retreated to the side like waves separated by a sea ship.

The old man ran to King Qi in a few steps, took out a small wooden bottle from his arms, poured out a few blood-red pills from it, and asked King Qi to take it with water......

The pill had an immediate effect, as if it had turned decay into magic, and King Qi, who was still weak and wanted to die just now, slowly eased his breathing, and his complexion changed from sallow to flushed.

But he was still speechless, let alone could not stay in the palace any longer, the queen apologized to Pingyuan Jun and Chang'an Jun on behalf of King Qi, and asked Prince Jian and Hou Sheng to entertain him, so he hugged King Qi and left in a hurry.

The crisis seemed to have passed safely, and the princes, Hou Sheng, and the ministers of the Qi State breathed a sigh of relief, and began to praise the old man named "Song Wuji", calling him "Old Immortal".

Song Wuji was not proud of his achievements, but said a few words with a smile and left.

When passing by the two Zhao Guogongzi who shouldn't have seen this scene, he seemed to know Pingyuanjun, and he stopped, waved at Zhao Sheng politely, and also greeted Mingyue by the way.

At this moment, Mingyue's nose suddenly moved.

From Song Wuji's clothes, he smelled a familiar smell, a smell that he would never forget since he had a skin disease in his previous life and bathed with that soap for several months......

It's brimstone!

Who else but that kind of person would have nothing to do to make such a bad smell on themselves? The identity of Song Wuji in front of him is about to come out.

"It's a magician!" Mingyue turned her head and stared at the direction where Song Wuji had gone, her eyes blazing......

This special group of people is also one of the purposes for him to come to Qi Country!

PS: I saw a lot of people saying that this book is the same as the previous book, is it going to be a Zhao generation Qi Yunyun, July can only answer three words, think too much...... Readers, this is the Warring States, not the Spring and Autumn Period. In addition, the Spring and Autumn period will be suspended for a period of time, and the new book is about to run out of manuscripts, so there is no way to be distracted, and notify each other.
