Chapter 43: The Unspeakable
After sleeping all night holding her feet, she was woken up by Yanyan the next morning. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info Yu Xin thought that this girl's anger would not be able to go away for a while.
How did he know that Yan Yan just felt that Yu Xin's affectionate action with Elder Xu yesterday was still closer to Yu Xin's friend and had known him for a longer time. As for the others, I don't think much about it at all, one is still young, and the other has no concept of love between men and women in this face, even if there is, it only exists in some books handed down from ancient times, such as the "Ancient Book of Books" borrowed by Yu Xin, which is a rare product that is difficult to see, where did Yanyan come into contact with it.
"Hurry up and get up, I'm going to see the city lord later, so I don't get up and get ready." Yanyan pinched Yu Xin's nose badly.
As soon as the word city lord was mentioned, Yu Xin jumped up suddenly, and hurriedly got out of bed to wash, today can get a good impression of the city lord.
After a while, Yu Xin came to the lobby with Yanyan.
At this time, Gongsun, Elder Xu, and Qu Zi were all ready to go. Yu Xin hurriedly grabbed two dough cakes on the table, bala bala, and ate them in a few bites. Yan Yan was still eating slowly, looking dissatisfied. She was forcibly left behind by Gongsun and was not allowed to go to see the city lord together.
"Let's go, the city lord and the doctors may already be waiting for us." After speaking, he glanced at Yu Xin dissatisfied, obviously disgusted that he had delayed time.
Yu Xin was stunned, it was only bright outside, the city lord wanted to see him so early, on the one hand, he was speechless to Qu Zi, knowing that the city lord was going to see him so early, and he didn't know to tell himself earlier.
There was some misunderstanding in the middle. It turned out that Qu Zi was going to wake up Yu Xin, but was picked up by Yan Yan, who also got up early with her grandson. But Yanyan saw that Yu Xin was sleeping soundly, so she was reluctant to wake him up immediately, and she was hard for a while, how could she not delay time.
The four of them set off in a hurry, and they didn't have time to pay attention to the more and more magnificent houses on both sides of the avenue, until in front of a more luxurious and magnificent mansion, Qu Zi took the lead in stopping, bowed his head and said to the three of them: "Don't talk loudly in it for a while, and don't walk around." ”
After finishing the instructions, he stepped forward to talk to the soldier standing at the door for a while. He turned around and motioned for everyone to come forward, and after some inspection, he was taken into the mansion by Qu Zi.
It was another report all the way to a large-scale palace.
Qu Zi paused slightly, letting the three of them get used to it first, but in fact, the main thing was to let Yu Xin relax first. Upon closer inspection, she noticed that both of them seemed to be calm. Gongsun had always been very cold and did not mention it, and even Elder Xu still had a sense of elegance and nobility and a hint of sadness. Qu Zi didn't know if there was something wrong with his feelings, why did he think that among the three of them, Yu Xin was a normal mountain villager.
Qu Zi shook his head and threw the distracting thoughts out of his mind, and said in a low voice: "Come in with me, remember to salute the city lord first." "Mainly to Yu Xin. After speaking, he took the lead in entering the main hall.
Yu Xin patted the "Ancient Book of Books" that was close to his chest, and his spirits perked up, and he followed the three girls in. Finally, the fateful moment has arrived.
Sure enough, as soon as I entered the main hall, I found that what Qu Zi said was true, the city lord and the doctors had already arrived, and in the huge hall, there were already two rows of women wearing various brocade robes and armor at this moment.
These people were curiously looking at Yu Xin who was standing beside Gongsun at this time, after all, it was still easy to distinguish a man who looked different from him.
Yu Xin's face darkened, and sure enough, it was the rhythm of being watched again, I hope that this group of people in the city will not be in a hurry to burn themselves to death like the villagers.
Don't think about it, hurry up and follow Qu Zi, salute and see the city lord, and you don't need to kneel, just put your hands together and bow down slightly. Coming from the republican world, I naturally understand the importance of first impressions.
"Well, what kind of man are you?" Seeing that Yu Xin really looked like his own people, and seeing that he was very polite, and seemed to be no different from his mother, he nodded, and his expression was a little more relaxed because he was unhappy with waiting.
"Well, go back to the city lord. That is true. ”
"And where did you come here? Where are your people? ”
"Lord Hui, I'm from the People's Village." There was a burst of laughter from everyone in the audience, and Yu Xin was confused, and continued to reply, "There is no clan, just me, and I somehow opened my eyes and found that I was already in a cage. "I came from the republican world and came from the plane channel, so naturally I can't say this, not to mention violating the rules of the plane, but it's hard to say whether this group of people can understand it, maybe it's like a monster burned to death, after all, coming from the plane channel, but it's similar to the way the beast tide comes.
But you can't lie, because the villagers who came to the city to sell hides are likely to have told the truth. At the beginning, I didn't say anything about keeping secrets in the village, and I can't blame the villagers at this time, and I can only answer this question in a whisper.
Fortunately, everyone was amused by Yu Xin's first answer, but no one paid attention to the second answer. The city lord also smiled, waved his hand, calmed the laughter of the doctors, and then continued: "I heard that in the north of the Central Plains, there is a father's country, you can't be an outlier from there, right?" ”
Yu Xin saw the solemn appearance of the city lord, and his heart tightened, knowing that the most important test was coming. He took a deep breath and was about to answer. Elder Xu stood up.
"Lord of the city, although Yu Xin is different from our mother, he is not a father either."
"Oh, neither mother nor father, then where did he come from, and who is he?"
Elder Xu glanced at Yu Xin, took a breath and said, "The City Lord should know that our mother is also called a woman. ”
"There is such a formulation, but it is the reference of a barbarian country outside the Central Plains." The city lord nodded.
"Actually, we used to be our own women, but we slowly changed our name to mother." Elder Xu didn't explain any further, otherwise he wouldn't be able to finish it for a day and a night, and he continued, "The Annotations on the Collection of Shangshu and the Ancient Biography both have records about 'Heaven and earth are divided into yin and yang, people are divided into men and women, and if yin and yang are in harmony, all things are born', which shows that men and women are like yin and yang, complementing each other. ”
These are a bit academic, and the origin of the city lord and military general is naturally not very clear, and his eyes glanced at the doctors standing below. Immediately, a doctor stepped forward.
"Returning to the city lord, there is a record of this passage in these two books, not only in these two books, but also in related discussions such as "Yi Chuan" and "Classic of Mountains and Seas", among which "Classic of Mountains and Seas" is on the clouds, "Heaven and earth are yin and yang, beasts and birds are male and female, and all things follow this principle", but this sentence has been difficult to understand. I don't know if you have a high opinion? "This is to consult Elder Xu.
The city lord nodded secretly, the university scholar of Yiling City really did not lose face to himself, quoted scriptures, and had extensive knowledge.
"But this doctor didn't know that these words were all from the "Ancient Book of Books". Speaking of which, the others were nothing, except that the university doctor and the few people in the room all took a breath. Elder Xu ignored these and calmly, "And he also paid attention to each other in the "Nine Classics Collection". ”
The scholar doctor pondered for a moment, nodded and said: "If this is the case, it is mentioned in the "Nine Classics", but fortunately, I was reminded by Your Excellency, which made me suddenly surprised. After speaking, he bowed deeply.
Elder Xu hurriedly dodged, and even said that he didn't dare.
"Your Excellency is talented, but I am lonely and unheard, and I dare to ask for a great name." After speaking, he gave a solemn salute again, and it seemed that he really admired Elder Xu.
Elder Xu's face was hesitant, since she came to settle here, she had not yet revealed her real name, if someone recognized her, the situation would be much worse than Yu Xin. But the attitude of the people is respectful, and it is not good not to answer.
