Chapter 247: Come
The spring rain shrouds the whole of Kyoto in a hazy illusion of smoke and rain, and pedestrians wearing clothes and hats, or a paper umbrella, step out of the ripples. The pen & fun & pavilion www.biquge.info carriage sped past, the puddle splashed muddy water, and the woman who couldn't dodge in time was splashed with mud and cursed for a while.
Seeing that no one paid attention, he could only secretly curse that he was unlucky, sighed and went back.
Outside the city, it's green, and the air smells of mud.
Around the Shili Pavilion, more than a dozen burly strong men stood with swords, frightening the passing merchants to take a detour, not daring to stay here, so as not to cause unnecessary trouble.
The black-robed old man was thin and long, looking like a black coffin board. The sunken eyes looked at the imperial capital, revealing a few remaining yellow teeth, and muttered: "What a heroic city." ”
The woman on the side was born extremely soft, her eyes were as clear as blue waves, but the sweet smile on the corner of her mouth hidden under the veil was like the best medicine to arouse people's desires, and she said softly in that soft voice: "How many times has the national teacher come to Dajing?" ”
The black-robed old man laughed and said, "Every time I come, I feel like I have just arrived, so that my fascination with this territory can be aroused. The last time I came, it was twenty years ago, and I took away the territory of fifty miles outside the Yumen Pass. ”
In the light rain, the woman took off her veil and shook the silver ornament on her head gently, "I didn't expect that this time we are here to make peace." Isn't my father old and old, and he doesn't have the ambition to gallop on the field back then? ”
The black-robed old man sighed: "Twenty years ago, if there was no Ruan Ciwen, once the Jade Gate Pass was broken, it would be all my Great Xia King's land." The princess should not say that the emperor has no ambition, the emperor's eloquence is strategic, how can you and I speculate? ”
The woman grinned, her wheat-colored skin, which was not like that of a boudoir girl, looked so radiant, her bewitching red lips showed her teeth, and she said with a smile: "That's not what the national teacher said in front of the palace before. ”
"That's when the emperor wants to marry the princess to the old man in his forties and fifties, and the old man is indignant and dissatisfied, and he is talking like this."
"Forty or fifty is an old man, isn't the national teacher an old man?"
The black-robed old man chuckled: "It is said that the Dajing Dynasty has produced many talents in the world, and there are countless capable people compared to my Daxia, and the old man wants to see who can marry you from the old man this time." ”
A long black dragon moved in the distance, and the woman grinned and said, "National Teacher, let's come here quietly, will the old man you said be very angry?" ”
"He is naturally very angry, and it is estimated that the fat man in the northwest is going to suffer." The fat man in the old man's mouth is Hong Wenjie, the governor of the Western Army of the Dajing Dynasty. At the beginning, he served as a chief soldier under Chen Zhice, and later returned to Beijing to report on his work, and stayed in the military department, after the defeat of Ruan Ciwen, the northwest generals changed several times, this may not even Chen Zhice has no impression of Hong Fat, but he has sat for the longest time, and this governor has been sitting for six years.
The woman smiled: "My father often said that playing tricks with Ruan Ciwen is like a master game. Since Uncle Hong took office, the horses of Great Xia have grown fat, and they have returned to the situation where Chen Zhice defended the city. ”
"I hope that this time, I can change to the governor of the Western Army who has some courage. If you don't break it, for us, an opponent like Ruan Ciwen is the most beneficial, but it is a fool like Hong Wenjie, who responds to people. ”
Hundreds of Praetorian Guards marched in unison, and in the midst of the wind and rain, a general in black armor dismounted and walked in a hurry, and he also received a temporary order to hurry.
"The last general, the dragon forbidden captain Qianhu Qi Chu, was ordered by the Holy Lord to take the envoys of Great Xia into Beijing."
The black-robed old man waved his sleeves, signaled the two blockers to put down their knives, and said, "There is General Lao." Two eight-lifted sedan chairs were lifted up from the middle, and the woman and the black-robed old man entered the sedan chair.
Qi Chu dropped the sedan curtain, turned over on his horse, and turned around and headed towards Jingshi.
For a while, the entire court was in chaos.
"Bastard! I allocate a million taels of silver every year, and the northwest border pass actually let this barbarian envoy enter a no-man's land, is it that they don't report it, and when I get in front of me, you, the military department, Zuo Shangshu, plan to tell me that this is their envoy! ”
Zhao Han threw the fold on Zou Qilin, who was kneeling on the ground, and Chen Zhice, who was standing on the side, bowed his head and pretended to sleep, without saying a word.
Zou Qilin was also taken aback when he received the official letter from the nine provincial capitals. While sending the Praetorian Guards in the city to greet him, he hurried into the palace to play.
"The sin of the minister deserves death." Zou Qilin trembled and knelt in front of the hall, the ghost knows where this group of barbarians came from.
Chen Zhice raised his eyebrows and said: "Now that the DPRK and China are fawning over the party for personal gain, the military affairs in the northwest are loose, and the two countries are still in a hostile situation, they let outsiders enter the customs so freely, and I implore the Holy Lord to investigate this matter thoroughly." ”
"Check, you must check!" Zhao Han had never wanted to be so angry today, "This matter is over, this Northwest Military Affairs must be thoroughly investigated to the end!" ”
Zou Qilin lay on the ground, not daring to breathe.
Yang Weili glanced at the official document from Honglu Temple, and muttered: "These barbarians are also too arrogant, they actually let out the wind when they arrived at the Shili Pavilion of the Jingshi, and it is estimated that the saint will be angry with Duke Zou for this." ”
Ni Huan said: "Old General Chen and Duke Zou have already entered the palace. ”
"What I'm most worried about now is not how Zou Gong is, but because I'm afraid that Chen Zhice will take the opportunity to provoke a war. The first war of that year exhausted the vitality of the Dajing Dynasty, and it has not recovered until now, and it has improved slightly, if it provokes another war, I am afraid it will be troublesome. Yang Weili frowned and said worriedly.
"Elder Ge, what should I do?"
Yang Weili got up and said, "Enter the palace to face the saint." ”

……
Yingchun's belly is already bulging, so it is naturally inconvenient to move around, and he is only raising a fetus in the East Chamber. Lin Lan looked at the accounts handed over by Tanchun, looked up and said, "So, today's shop has a profit of nearly 10,000 taels?" ”
Tanchun nodded and said, "It's already good." This money is earned, and Jingshi doesn't know how many people are red-eyed officials. ”
Lin Lan smiled, "Let you play cards with these aunts and wives of Jingshi, how many have you ever befriended?" ”
Tanchun glanced at Lin Lan and said, "How can there be such idle time." When the officials were still in the garden, I was busy and lacked skills, not to mention those aunts and wives who ate and didn't do anything, and they got together for an afternoon, so I could walk away. ”
"The business in the shop, you just let it go. If you want to do everything yourself, then what do you need the shopkeeper to do? You just have to be the shopkeeper. Lin Lan teased.
Fu Xiaodao's voice came from outside the hall, "Master, the first ancient Buddha has entered Beijing!" ”
Lin Lan squinted his eyes, watching the raindrops fall on the eaves and drip into the small pit of the stone bricks, and muttered, "Let's go, go and see." ”
The Guangning Gate in the west of the city opened for a moment, and the rain was light.
The humming sound of the wheels almost crushed the slate. The people on the road leaned aside, looking curiously at the city gate. After more than 100 soldiers cleared the road, more than 100 monks who came on foot from Chang'an, holding wooden fish, came from both sides at once. On top of the ten-wheeled cart, the three-meter-high bronze Buddha was slowly pushed into the Guangning Gate by dozens of strong men.
"Yo, what a great Buddha!"
"This Buddha is so angry, he looks a long time ago, right? How did you move the dojo? ”
Along the way, the monks chanted and sang, the bronze Buddha statue, rusty, the pair of Buddha eyes drooped, a quiet and peaceful. The Buddha held the flower with one hand, which looked solemn. The Buddha statue was invited from Ximing Temple, so painstakingly, in order to be able to complete the repair of the pagoda outside Huangming Temple at the end of this summer.
On top of the Yunbin Tower in the southeast, Lin Lan put away the binoculars and sat on the bamboo chair, "In two months, more than 80 horses have died, roads have been built and paved, and thousands of taels have been built at every turn, is it really that I think too much?" "According to this data, the cost of moving a big Buddha is really a few thousand taels.
Fu Xiaodao said: "This Buddha came with blood, congratulations?" Can the saint afford to laugh? ”
"It depends on how things develop. Although I have been in the garden for the past two months, I have been thinking about one thing, that is, why does Prince Liu's birthday on behalf of the saint? Please? It seems that he is the crown prince and is already a very human minister. ”
"Who can explain this, maybe he just wants to simply celebrate his birthday?"
Lin Lan smiled, who is innocent. (To be continued.) )
