Chapter 7: The Water Goes Deep into the Wood

The Dragon Boat Festival was originally a commemorative festival, and later there were more dragon boat races. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 infoThe land of Xiangchu is because of Qu Yuan, and the land of Sanwu is because of Cao E and Wu Zixu.

Wear a sachet, hang calamus mugwort leaves, calamus for the five rui, made into a sword can be ominous, can feel the qi of a hundred yin, can kill ghosts and evils.

Xie An cut Ai Ye into the shape of a small tiger, Zhuang and Gu were more skilled than him, and they had already done several of them when he did a kung fu.

Garlic and Xie Zhenshi went to live in Jingkou a few years ago, and when they came back, it should be when their cousin-in-law was transferred back to Beijing, and then it would be a real family reunion.

Recently, Xie Pei's back was sore, Xie An saw that the father and son finally got together, and specially asked his father to make time to burn moxibustion with wormwood for him.

Now that Huang Chuping is here, Xie An naturally can't waste his skills, and is busy asking him to take a safe pulse for his sister-in-law who has just become pregnant.

Huang Chuping helped his sister-in-law check the pulse, Xie Yi was suspicious, and quietly asked Xie An, "Your junior brother is not a few years older than you, this treatment alchemy has experience, but you shouldn't have much experience in diagnosing the pulse of pregnancy, right?" ”

"The experience has been accumulated, and it doesn't hurt for him to try, but for more than three years, my sister-in-law has been conditioning according to my master's method, and I think it should be fine, if my master doesn't have a way......"

Huang Chuping withdrew his hand and patted Xie An's shoulder, "Don't worry too much, Master's recipe has always been very useful, but if I am not mistaken, my sister-in-law's pulse seems to have twins, if the little senior brother doesn't believe it, you can check the pulse again." ”

Everyone's eyes widened, Xie An has also worked diagnosing the pulse over the years, and hurriedly put it on the wrist of the sister-in-law to feel the pulse carefully, and said while probing: "Like a bead rolling jade plate, slippery pulse...... Male Yang **** ......"

Huang Chuping said: "One floats and one sinks......"

Xie Yi listened to it with a big head, and saw Xie Anqi and said: "I have been diagnosed with the imperial doctor before, and I have also had doubts, but it has only been less than two months, and I dare not be too sure." ”

Huang Chuping said firmly: "Absolutely, congratulations to Brother Xie!" ”

Xie Yi looked dazed. Xie An waved his hand and said: "Don't care about these details, anyway, the sister-in-law's baby is a twin, maybe it's still a dragon and a phoenix!" ”

Huang Chuping continued: "It's just that there was a child before, which is congenital deficiency." So you should pay more attention to this during pregnancy. ”

This is also annoying to tell the truth, Xie An saw that the eldest brother and sister-in-law's originally happy face added another worry, he hurriedly said: "Senior brother Xiaoxian will always stay in Jiankang, his medical inheritance master, will definitely be able to keep his sister-in-law and nephews safe!" ”

Zhuang said: "Ward off evil spirits and eliminate disasters." It seems that this calamus sword has to be hung in front of every house to bless my Xie descendants to come into the world safely. ”

After reading the pulse, Huang Chuping dragged Xie An to the corner and said, "Little senior brother, I'm not good at protecting the fetus!" If you say that your acupuncture is much more useful than me. ”

Xie An Zhengse said: "I won't go to school, now I will trust the master to teach you." ”

Huang Chuping faintly felt that he was abducted to Jiankang instead of his master, and he couldn't get out.

On the day of the Dragon Boat Festival, the Empress Dowager Yu and the lord led the ministers to sacrifice to the god of water on the Qinhuai River, drink realgar wine, and watch the dragon boat crossing.

Most of the children of the family walked with their parents, and Xie An did not go in previous years. This year, Empress Dowager Yu actually ordered Xie An to accompany Sima Yan to attend the meeting, and I don't know which tendon was wrong.

This time, the children of the Wang family traveled under the leadership of Wang Biaozhi as usual, the young man and girl stood at the door waiting to take the ox cart, and Xie An also happened to take Xie Wan and his party out.

Wang Xizhi was wearing a calamus sword around his waist, and when he saw Xie An coming, he drew his sword and pulled a string of sword flowers, "Brother Ah Yan gave it to me!" ”

The green shadow is like water, and Wang Xi's dancing sword also has a deep biography of Wang Dao, which seems to be the same.

Wang Tian crossed his arms and smiled, "This girl has to go out with a sword." Say it's good-looking. ”

Today, Wang Xizhi is wearing a light purple dress, as if he is dressed as a dignified lady, and with this sword, it adds liveliness.

Xie An led the little dragon girl out of the house, because he was going to race with Huan Wen today.

"Little Dragon Girl is early!" Wang Xizhi touched the head of the horse. The little dragon girl wanted to stick out her tongue and lick her hand, but she was immediately frightened by the rat cage that suddenly fell on top of her head.

"Going out with Doudou?" Xie An took the rat cage, and his cuffs were wide enough to cover the small cage.

Wang Xizhi said aggrievedly: "You can't leave it alone at home, otherwise your aunt will beat it to death." ”

Ah Jing sighed and said, "We were feeding him a few days ago. didn't want to be seen by A-Niang, but she was startled, but fortunately Wang Xizhi saved it quickly, otherwise this Doudou would have been shot to death by A-Niang with clogs. ”

Jiao's is still Jiao's, and this fierce temperament can't even tolerate a little mouse.

Wang Tian smiled and said: "One of you and two are teenagers, and you are still like children, this mouse will be released into the mountain while you go out today." ”

"Don't." Wang Xizhi stretched out his claws and pinched Wang Tian, and then ran to Xie An's side, "Brother Ah Yan is good or bad, I want to ride with you today, so I don't want to ride with him." ”

Wang Biaozhi came from the door, stretched out his hand and poked Wang Xizhi's bulging cheeks, "You can't ride a horse in this body, come with Brother Tiger Calf, your brother Ah Yan has never understood girls' thoughts, he only knows chess." ”

Wang Biaozhi's car was the most spacious, Wang Xizhi was reluctant to say goodbye to Xiaolongnu, and pulled Hu Zhi into Wang Biaozhi's ox cart together, leaving the honest people Ah Jing and Wang Tian looking at each other.

Xie An smiled: "I'm disgusted, do you want to ride a horse with me?" ”

"Good!" Wang Qia looked at the street behind him, and saw Huan Wen riding a horse from a distance, "Later, it will depend on whose horse is faster, you and Huan Fuzi." ”

Xie Wan looked aggrieved and tugged on Xie An's sleeve, "Third brother, didn't you say that you would take me to ride?" ”

Xie An patted him on the shoulder, "Wan'er, you have grown up, they all carry it on weekdays, but today is rare, you have to take care of Hu'er and stones." ”

Some people are happy and some are sad, and in the end, Xie Wan watched the ox cart and the horse disappear into the alley, and finally resigned himself to taking care of his younger brother and nephew, but when Xie Lang pestered him in the carriage and told him stories, he finally knew that it was not easy to take care of children.

……

Thinking back to the time when Wang Dao and Sima Rui first arrived in Jiangnan, in order to stabilize Sima Rui's status and show the magnanimity of the Jin family, Wang Dao Wang Dun led the cavalry to lay out a pomp for Sima Rui, and especially in March Shangsi Festival in the river to enjoy with the people.

This Dragon Boat Festival is also a people-friendly activity.

Xie An and Huan Wen rode their horses and galloped on the embankment of the Qinhuai River, and the soldiers guarding the bank looked at the two of them with a headache.

There was no one to stop them all the way, if it weren't for the fleet that Xie Shang docked at the Qingxi Bridge, I'm afraid that these two people would have run out of the city directly.

Today's Qinhuai River and Qingxi can be seen on the willow trees tied up and inserted calamus leaves, and the rat infestation in front of Rao is frightened many people. This activity of warding off evil spirits and demons is relieving them of their knots.

Xie An was screwed back by Xie Shang, honestly changed his clothes in the ox cart, and sat next to Sima Yan like a puppet.

Sima Yan was tossed up and dressed up early in the morning, and now he doesn't dare to relax in the slightest under the attention of the people. Taking advantage of the Empress Dowager Yu's departure, he whispered to Xie An: "Your junior brother has contributed a lot to the rat infestation, and talents are rare, and I don't know if he wants to stay in Jiankang." ”

Xie An said truthfully: "Staying is staying, but he has the same temperament as my master." I'm afraid that if I can't hold it for too long, the lord won't worry about it. ”

Sima Yan sighed inaudibly, "The queen mother has been shouting tiredness recently, but she didn't tell me about it, so I went to ask the imperial doctor to find out." ”

Although Empress Dowager Yu has been a regent in the past two years, Yu Liang is actually in charge of all the affairs of the court, and Sima Yan now doesn't even have the opportunity to take a closer look. Anyway, it's also out of the wind.

Today's wind and sunshine are beautiful, the water surface is sparkling, the willow embankment is full of green shadows, and the people on both sides of the strait are all to see the little lord and the family Langjun, especially the girl, I want to be killed by the guard, Pan An was smashed by the fruit full of cars and full of brains, you can know that this era of looking at the face, after all, the power of the girl is great.

Huan Wenben rode a horse to patrol, and suddenly a thief came over. said to Xie An: "Do you know how many people came to see you today?" Oh, this piece, that bunch of girls in their cardamom years, if it weren't for the shore guards. They can't wait to cross the river to see you.

……

"Don't scare me." Xie An was a little dazzled by his fingers, and Sima Yan chuckled lowly, "What Huan Fuzi said is true, you have been hiding in the Tai Academy all these years...... I know how many people in the people want to go to Tai Academy to study and worship under you. ”

"The little lord can't mess around with Huan Wen, Lord Yu is looking at you."

Xie An was very serious, and Huan Wen smiled lowly, "You just pretend." Then I rode a horse to soothe the girls who looked at Xie Jiazaburo across the river, and when I came back, I harvested a lot of mugwort leaf paper-cuts, not only small tigers, but also small rabbits and kittens of various shapes, and the sachet was also full of hands.

"Sent by your admirer." Huan Wen threw things into his arms, and the screams could be faintly heard across the river...... Xie An supported his forehead, this is not a celebrity meeting!

But fortunately, there is no rigidity in etiquette these years, otherwise how dare these girls express their hearts like this?

"I guess they must be saying, 'You see Saburo took my gift,' 'No, Saburo likes my sachet,' or something like that, and I was stuffed with a gift when I went there."

Huan Wen talked eloquently, Xie An hurriedly asked the inner supervisor to collect the gifts, and then the eldest princess snorted behind Huan Wen, "It turns out that little soldiers and ruffians also have girls who like them." ”

Huan Wen frowned, "Your Royal Highness the eldest princess, it doesn't seem that I have provoked you today, right?" ”

The eldest princess stepped forward slowly, and the ornaments all over her body sounded softly as she walked, with indescribable dignity and gorgeousness, coupled with that heroic face, she did not lose her momentum when she stood in front of Huan Wen, who was tall and tall.

The two quarreled as soon as they met, starting with the celebration banquet four years ago, Huan Wen often ridiculed the eldest princess for being so fierce that she couldn't get married, and the eldest princess laughed at him for being a scoundrel and a ruffian, and several times if Xie An hadn't stopped him, the two would have to fight.

Empress Dowager Yu came back from the end of the old family with the daughter of the family, the two immediately stopped arguing, the eldest princess sat obediently beside the queen mother, Sima Yue looked so hot that he was about to faint, Xie An hurriedly took a mint leaf and let him hold it in his mouth, Sima Yan looked at his younger brother with great distress, and said: "Ah Yue is weak, but he insists on coming, saying that he can't damage the royal prestige." ”

The dragon boat race started in such an orderly manner, Xie An has always been a model for the children of the family, whether it is sitting upright or etiquette, and now the Empress Dowager Yu asked him to accompany Sima Yan, of course, to listen to his Luoyang Yong.

There must be an opening remark at the beginning of any activity, Sima Yan said simply, Xie An picked up the congratulatory words that had been used for many years and began to recite them aloud, at this time, the power of Xuan Xiu can be used here, he opened his mouth, his breath was open, his voice was calm and gentle, and he could hear it within half a mile.

Hearing that there are artifacts such as sound transmission stones in the palace, and they don't take them out for use, Xie An ended his speech with a belly, and when he sat back in place, he heard a sound coming from the place where Huan Wen pointed out on the shore, Sima Yan smiled lightly: "It's all said, you have a lot of admirers, next time you go out, be careful not to be smashed by pomegranates." ”

Sima Yan rarely laughed with him, thinking that the rat infestation was in a good mood after being solved by Sima Yu, and now Sima finally won some fame.

Next is the dragon boat race, Sima Yan wants to personally put the eye on the cinnabar for the dragon boat, and then the Empress Dowager Yu asked Wang Dao: "Wang Xizhi is here today?" ”

I don't know what she wants Wang Xizhi to do, Wang Xizhi, who was hiding aside and secretly feeding Doudou with Hu Zhi, walked forward blankly under the call of Wang Dao.

Everyone looked at her, she was a little unaccustomed, and suddenly she didn't know where to put her hand, and she was still holding a handful of snacks in her hand.

Empress Dowager Yu said with a loving gaze: "Four years ago, I knew that you entered the third grade of the ink soul list, and the name of Langya Wang's calligraphy is a must in Jiangzuo, and now this palace wants you to see your handwriting again." ”

Wang Xizhi was stunned, looked back at Director Wang, Director Wang nodded slightly, and then she replied: "Where to write?" ”

Empress Dowager Yu said with a smile: "Naturally, it is on the dragon boat, and Dexi is mysteriously handwritten, presumably this dragon boat will ride the wind and waves, hopeless." ”

……

Everyone turned their heads to each other, and this calligraphy was written on paper, so that a delicate girl could write on the dragon boat...... This dragon boat is wooden, and it is gone after being launched, does the Empress Dowager Yu want to see her make a fool of herself?

can see that the Empress Dowager Yu's expression is very loving, as if she is looking at her own daughter......

Xie An first looked at Sima Yan, and then saw Wang Xizhi and said without thinking: "Okay, I don't know what the Queen Mother wants Xizhi to write?" ”

Director Wang's nod really worked, and after Wang Xizhi was affirmed, there was no trace of dazedness and helplessness on his face.

Empress Dowager Yu said: "San Lang's congratulatory speech." ”

Xie An hurriedly handed over the congratulatory note from Fang Cai, and Wang Xiyi smiled at him with a relaxed face, "Help me read the congratulatory message." ”

Xie An agreed, the two came to the tall dragon boat on the shore, stood on the pedal, Xie An helped her pick up a pen, and the inner supervisor came with a small jar of ink, and the ink fragrance bursted, which made the two of them dizzy and sober up a lot.

Xie An asked in a low voice, "Is there a difficulty?" ”

Wang Xizhi shook his head, took the pen, and began to write on a wooden board on the hull of the ship under Xie An's chanting.

Both of them are dressed today, one scarlet and one purple, luxurious and vulgar, comparable in size, outstanding in appearance, and pleasing to the eye, especially Wang Xi's luck pen is chic and imposing, which complements Xie An who is chanting.

After brushing and writing, Wang Xizhi wrote three broken pens in one breath.

The dragon boat was launched, and after the race, everyone thought that the ink color on the boat would fade, but they didn't think that just a layer of surface was washed away, and the hull of the boat still faintly saw traces of pen and ink!

Therefore, compared to any competition, the biggest shock today is that Wang Xizhi's brushwork is already three points deep!
