Chapter 35 Shelter in Chengfu Temple
People found that a few people were not good looking, and they would not be ordinary people at first glance, so they hurriedly bowed down and replied: "It was the left-behind envoy of Taiyuan Mansion in Bingzhou, and Master Li of Tang Guogong repaired it." Pen ~ Fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info"
Qin Qiong asked in surprise: "He stayed in Taiyuan, why did he come here to do this merit?" The craftsman said: "Because of the first year of Renshou on August 15, Master Li returned to his hometown by the Holy Grace, and lived in the temple at night, Mrs. Dou gave birth to the fourth son, and Li Ye was afraid of polluting the pure land, so he gave generous and rebuilt. The one sitting on the hall with a yellow umbrella is his county horse, whose surname is Chai Mingshao, and the word is Chang. ”
When they heard this, they asked where the abbot was, and then went to the backyard to ask for an meeting; They turned around the hall of the Mahavira and came to the backyard; I saw that a new gatehouse had been erected here, and a large hall was behind it.
Qi Guoyuan said: "It turns out that there are new immortals here, let's go and see which one to worship?" Everyone walked into the temple and found that it was not a temple, but an ancestral hall with the words "Baode Temple" written on it
Cheng Yanjin glanced at it and said: "It turned out to be an ancestral hall, not an immortal, let's go and see which ancestral hall it is." Everyone was curious, and followed him into the ancestral hall.
There is a statue enshrined in the ancestral hall; But he was standing, wearing a lotus leaf eaves pink and blue Fan Yang felt hat, wearing a soapcloth sea shirt, covered with yellow armor, cooked leather collars, hanging teeth card to untie the knife, and wearing yellow deer skin combat boots. Stand up a red card forward, with six big golden characters in regular script: "Engong Qiong's five births." There were a few small words next to it: "The letter official Li Yuan is enshrined with his hands." ”
Qin Qiong knew it in his heart, and knew that it was in Lintong Mountain that day, helping him kill and repel the pursuers, they came here at night, thinking that they didn't hear it clearly, but they set up a tablet of Qiong Wu.
Qi Guoyuan stared at the statue for a while and said, "This statue doesn't look like my brother Qin Qiong?" Everyone looked at it carefully and nodded. Wang Bodang exclaimed: "When Brother Qin was catching fast, he was dressed like this, which is the same as this sculpture; Isn't it really Brother Qin? ”
Qin Qiong smiled bitterly, and when he and Dou Hu came back from Chang'an, they saw someone fighting in front of them; I thought it was a robber who hit,; So he stepped forward to help; saved Li Yuan's family. But Li Yuan drank that the robber was Yuwenshu, and he was afraid of being implicated, so he didn't dare to wait longer to fight the horse and leave. Li Yuan was closely behind, and had no choice but to call his name, and waved his hand to tell him not to chase after him; I don't know how he heard Cheng Qiongwu.
Some of them spoke inside, and were heard by the servants who came outside to spy on them; When the man heard that it was the lord's father-in-law, he was inside; hurriedly ran to the front to inform Chai Gongzi.
Chai Gongzi didn't dare to slack off when he heard this, and hurriedly ran to the back, and when he saw Qin Qiong and the others, he shouted: "That is my father-in-law's father-in-law?" ”
Cheng Biting Jin pointed at Qin Qiong and said with a smile: "My eldest brother Qin is, his surname is Qin Qiong and the word Shubao, you misheard it at the time and thought it was Qiong Wu." If you don't believe it, his double hammer is still on the go, you can check it outside the mountain gate! ”
Chai Gongzi shouted: "You are all heroes and heroes, and you won't bully each other if you want to!" As he spoke, he didn't care if the ground was unclean, so he bowed his head and said, "Chai Shao, meet Qin Engong!" ”
Cheng Yanjin looked at the young man stunned; When everyone mentions him, the first thing that comes to mind is his wife, Princess Li Xiuning of Pingyang. In fact, Chai Shao can be ranked among the twenty-four heroes of Lingyan Pavilion, and his ability is far greater than that of Princess Pingyang.
Historical records record that Chai Shao was a good ranger, and when he was a teenager, he was selected by Emperor Wen of Sui as a thousand cattle to prepare himself and be the prince's companion. Li Yuan also admired his talent very much, and gave his daughter Li Xiuning to Chai Shao.
Before Li Yuan raised troops in Taiyuan, he secretly recruited his daughter and uncle in Chang'an, as well as his two sons Jiancheng and Yuanji in Hedong. Chai Shao and his wife discussed, and Princess Pingyang attracted the attention of the court here; Chai Shaoxian secretly fled back to Taiyuan.
Chai Shao met Jiancheng and Yuanji, who were also on the run, on the road, and persuaded the two to dispel their plans to fall into the grass; When the three of them returned to Taiyuan, they met Li Yuan's army.
Chai Shao was named the chief of soldiers and horses by Li Yuan and rushed to Chang'an; Along the way, Chai Shao took the lead, and he must be the first to climb in battle, and made great contributions in the battle to pacify and destroy the Sui generals Song Laosheng and Qu Tutong.
When they came to the foot of Chang'an, they found that Li Xiuning, the princess of Pingyang, had relied on the support of Li Shentong, the largest mutant organization, to let the general Ma Sanbao appease the other two mutant groups, and successfully occupied all the surrounding counties and counties of Chang'an.
After that, Chai Shao helped Li Shimin to calm down Xitui, and in the eighth year of Zhenguan, as the head of the Jinhe Road march, he participated in the battle to destroy the Turks led by Li Jing, and made great achievements.
And the husband and wife are harmonious and love each other very much; In the twelfth year of Zhenguan, Chai Shao died, and Princess Pingyang died of depression in the same year. Chai Zhewei, the eldest son of Chai Shao, inherited his father's title and served as the protector of Anxi for three terms, making a significant contribution to the stability of the west.
Qin Qiong hurriedly stepped forward and helped Chai Shao up and said, "Chai Gongzi is too polite, it's just a gesture, Qin doesn't dare to be ashamed!" ”
Chai Shao said with a smile: "Engong has done a lot of work, but he has a life-saving grace for my father-in-law's family!" My father-in-law often misses my father-in-law and hates to see him; I'll fix the book and tell my father-in-law the good news in a moment! He hugged his fists at Cheng Yanjin and the others and said, "Haven't you asked a few of them yet?" ”
Cheng Yanjin and others all reported with their real names, Chai Shao was overjoyed, and while asking the servants to invite Wang Hu and others, who were guarding the horses, to come in, and instructed the abbot to arrange accommodation quickly; Then arrange a banquet for everyone to catch the wind and wash the dust.
In this way, Qin Qiong and the others lived in Cheng'en Temple, drinking and having fun with Chai Shao every day, and then competing in some martial arts, and living happily.
Although Cheng Yanjin is the best in martial arts, he really has no talent in archery, and he has studied with Wang Bodang and Qin Qiong, two archery masters, for several days, and he can only do it without missing the target.
This result finally allowed Qin Qiong and the others to find a little balance, this perverted guy was about to pick a group of them alone; It really made a few people a little discouraged.
Through the observation of the past few days, Lao Cheng found that Chai Shao's martial arts were directly above Qi Guoyuan Li Ruqi, and the big gun in his hand was unusual, and he was worthy of a general. He deliberately talked to Chai Shao and took the opportunity to inquire about the situation of the Li family.
Chai Shao also very much wants to recruit this hero in the world for his family, but Lao Cheng has inquiries, knows everything, and says everything; And there are many solicitations in the words. Lao Cheng also understood what he meant, but he didn't agree or refuse.
Everyone lived here for a while, and saw that in three or four days it would be Yang Su's birthday on the fifteenth day of the first lunar month; Qin Qiong and others wanted to say goodbye to Chai Shao and go to Chang'an to give gifts.
Chai Shao saw that they couldn't stop them on a business trip, but they definitely couldn't go back to Chengfu Temple after giving the gift, and their father-in-law's reply couldn't arrive for a while.
Thinking of this, Chai Shao said to Qin Qiong: "Brother Qin, it will be the fifteenth day of the first lunar month soon, and the lanterns in Chang'an are lively; How about I want to go into the city with my big brother too? ”
Qi Guoyuan shouted at the top of his throat: "All go, all go!" Whoever doesn't go is not enough brother, my boss slaps him! Qin Qiong could see that Chai Shao was a delicate person, and he was familiar with the environment in Chang'an, which was beneficial to his own visit; He immediately nodded in agreement.
After everyone discussed, they immediately began to pack their things and set off for Chang'an. It is only sixty miles away from Chang'an, but because they came out late, when they arrived outside Chang'an, it was already a red sun.
Qin Qiong restrained his war horse and said, "Brothers, it's getting late. There were 16 of us in this group, including the servants; At this time, it is difficult to find such a big inn. I see that there is an old Tao family shop in front of it, which is also neat, why don't we live here first? ”
Hearing this, everyone nodded secretly and said, "Brother Qin is reasonable, let's stay here!" Everyone agreed, and the horse came to the Tao family's old store.
When the shopkeeper saw these men riding on warhorses and carrying swords; And quite a few servants followed, knowing that it was a high roller, and hurriedly greeted them from inside.
Chai Shao's servant took a few steps forward, showed the signboard of Taiyuan Stay, Tang Guogong, and immediately encircled several luxurious courtyards in the east; Then invite Chai Shao, Qin Qiong and others to go inside to rest.
Everyone has just arrived at the gate of the courtyard, "Slippery! A thunderous roar of tigers and leopards caught everyone's attention.
