Fingers touched lightly, the fingertips of the girl Xiaozhen were as cold as cold jade, her eyebrows were lowered, she bowed and retreated to the bed, the dancing girl on the bed Gu Xishan was weak and fell asleep at this time, the girl checked her pulse again, the rising sun shone from the long window, and the beautiful face of the girl sitting at the head of the bed without saying a word had a faint sadness-

Zhang Yuan paced to the window, looking at the thin book in his hand, high-grade Korean paper, the cover has no inscription, when he opened it, it was the kind of continuous folding long scroll of Buddhist scriptures, like the bellows of the accordion was stretched to the extreme, each page was the size of a palm, and it was written in a neat and neat style of Yu Shinan's "Preface to Breaking the Evil Theory", which recorded all kinds of evil deeds of Guanghaijun after he ascended the throne, such as killing and poking the officials of the Xiaobei faction who exiled him, deposing and killing his brothers, and even scolding his mother and concubine with a rod, as well as Guanghaijun's connivance with the border generals and Jianzhou since three years ago. Detailed records of the prohibited trade in iron and other items......

An improper king to the throne to torture the law to establish authority, reuse their cronies, this is a normal means, these actions of Gwanghaejun is not surprising, this is the national politics of North Korea, Zhang Yuan as a Ming envoy has no right to interfere, but Gwanghaejun vainly tried to collude with Nurhachi, which Zhang Yuan could not tolerate, two years later in the Salhu War, Gwanghaejun was forced by the pressure of the Ming court and Yang Hao's prestige in North Korea had to send troops, but secretly told the commander of the army Marshal Jiang Hongliguan to change his back, and send troops to contribute, Although the strength of the DPRK is not enough to change the general trend of the battle of Salhu, it is always a favorable factor to be able to get the full help of the DPRK, which is what Zhang Yuan has to strive for-

In the last few pages of this volume, there is a layer of silk cloth.\\The handwriting on the silk cloth is very different from the previous Yu Ti Xiaokai, looking at whether the pen should be written by a woman, or the sins of Guanghai Jun, calling on the ministers to set things right and depose the tyrant, and finally signed by Queen Renmu, without a seal, only a blood-colored thumb print.

Zhang Yuan was surprised: "Where did this silk book come from?" ”

The dancing girl Gu Hee-sun fell asleep. The girl Xiaozhen was giving her acupuncture, and the tall Ma Kuoqi and the thin Sheba stood by the door, and the room was silent. No one answered Zhang Yuan.

There is a pen, ink, paper and inkstone on the bookcase under the window, Zhang Yuan didn't know if the girl Xiaozhen understood Chinese characters, so he walked over and wrote a line of words: "Where does the silk book come from?" "I'm done. Put down the pen and wait for the girl Xiaozhen to come to see the acupuncture for the dancing girl-

Zhen Zidan came to report, Pyongyang Prefecture Counselor Yin Park Yihong sent fresh fruits and vegetables and exquisite wine and food, and invited two angels to visit Pyongyang City, Zhang Yuan said: "Let's go again tomorrow, and rest for another day today, the illness is like a thread." ”

Zhen Zidan smiled and went to reply.

When Zhang Yuan looked back at the room, the girl Xiaozhen was already standing by the bookcase to read his question, Zhang Yuan walked over and tapped the bookcase lightly with his knuckles. Looking at the girl's clear and sad face, the girl nodded her head very much, raised the pen to write, Zhang Yuan said, "You sit down and write." He gestured to his chair.

The girl shook her head, and stood by the bookcase and wrote a line of Chinese characters with her wrist hanging - "Queen Renmu wrote it herself." It was handed over to the hands of the Golden Officer. ”

The girl's character is Yu Shinan's style, and the small album is also written by the girl.

Zhang Yuanxin said: "Is this an edict with clothes, who is Liu Bei?" He took the pen from the girl's hand and wrote, "I am an envoy who has come and gone in a hurry, why do you let me see this? Why do you trust me so much, aren't you afraid that I will hand these over to Gwanghae-kun? ”

The girl did not write to answer. But his eyes widened and he looked at Zhang Yuan with a clear look.

Zhang Yuan wrote: "Who else wants to see me? ”

The girl wrote: "About five days later. ”

Zhang Yuan wrote: "Only by catching the Jurchen envoy of Jianzhou can there be a turnaround. ”

The girl wrote: "Mr. Kim is in contact with all sides. ”

The dancing girl on the bed, Gu Hee-sun, let out a painful moan, the girl Xiaozhen frowned, still only looking at Zhang Yuan, her dark eyes were fixed, Zhang Yuan suddenly felt a little absurd, he conspired with a blind priest and a mute girl to overthrow the current king of North Korea, this is simply a big joke in the world!

The girl Xiaozhen obviously sensed the mockery in Zhang Yuan's eyes, and wrote: "Angel Rongyu, there are many people who oppose the tyranny of Guanghaijun, I hope that the angel will observe the public opinion of Xiaobang, and the angel will go to worship the Tanjun Temple tomorrow." ”

Zhang Yuan thought very carefully, and asked, "How do you know that I am going to worship the Tanjun Temple tomorrow?" "He just said to Zhen Zidan that tomorrow he will go with Pyongyang Prefecture Counselor Yin Park Yihong to worship the Jizi Temple and Tanjun Temple, since this girl is deaf and dumb, how can she know?

The girl Xiaozhen pursed her lips and looked at Zhang Yuan fixedly, looking innocent and flawless.

Zhang Yuan said coldly: "Can you hear me speak, why do you pretend to be deaf and dumb like this?" ”

The girl did not show a panicked look, but her face was serious, pointed to her mouth, and shook her head.

Zhang Yuan asked, "Can you hear, but can't speak?" Then why did the golden priest say that you were born deaf? ”

The girl didn't seem to want to explain, and turned her face to look out the long window, the May sun shining on the white-petaled and red-stamen's hibiscus flowers, shining brightly—

Zhang Yuan said lightly: "You deceive me, then what else is there to say." He closed the small album on the bookcase, and pinched the paper in his hand on which he had talked with the girl Fang Cai, turned and walked out the door, and heard a "plop" behind him, and when he turned his head to look, the girl knelt on the ground, holding the small album in both hands, and burst into tears, and the throat was "ho-ho" -

Zhang Yuan didn't go back to support the girl, but said, "Put this album away, it's not good to fall into the hands of others." Then the girl ran to the door, and then she looked frightened, pointed to her mouth, and shook her head.

Zhang Yuan also shook his head and said, "Go and pick up the pen and write." ”

The girl got up and pouted her buttocks and walked back to the bookcase, quickly wrote out and bowed down to Zhang Yuan, explaining to Zhang Yuan, but it turned out that the girl was frightened when she was a child and could not speak, and she was not deaf.

Zhang Yuanxin said: "Can you not speak if you are frightened, it should be a mental problem, and the organs are not damaged, no wonder the medical skills of the golden priest can't cure her." said: "Okay, don't worry, I act in my own way, you can heal that Gu girl." ”

The girl Xiaozhen knelt down again and presented the small album to Zhang Yuan, Zhang Yuan shook his head and said: "I can't accept this, I am not a courtier of the Joseon State, how dare I receive the edict of the queen of your state, please give it to other courtiers who are loyal to Queen Renmu, you can take this album." ”

……

Pyongyang is the capital of Pyongan Province, and Seoul, Kaesong and called the three capitals of North Korea, the whole big city is divided into the inner city, the outer city, the middle city and the northern city, the inside is dense, the market is prosperous, 25 years ago the Imjin Japanese rebellion was very damaging to Pyongyang, at that time the outer city was all destroyed, the Japanese Konishi governor could not resist Li Rusong's attack, set fire to the city when he withdrew from Pyongyang, the north city and the middle city were almost in ruins, but after 20 years of recuperation, Pyongyang recovered its vitality, the population in the city exceeded 100,000, comparable to a medium-sized city in the Ming Dynasty.

On the morning of the third day of the fifth lunar month, Zhang Yuan and Nguyen Dacheng, the two envoys, were accompanied by Liu Dongming, Liu Xiya brothers, Pyongyang Prefecture Counselor Yin Pu Yihong and the secretary Kim Zhongqing and others to visit Pyongyang City.

In the afternoon, Zhang Yuan and his entourage went to the Yongsan Danjun Temple in the west of Pyongyang, Danjun has a status equivalent to China's Laozi in North Korea, Tanjun's real name is Wang Jian, it is rumored that he was born to the god and the bear girl, and is a figure in myths and legends five thousand years ago, but the Koreans regard the mythical characters as the official history and fabricate the Danjun lineage, that is, the so-called Danjun Joseon, this period of history is longer than China's Xia, Shang and Zhou-

Zhang Yuan's visit to the temple is still interested and respectful, and the visit to the Tanjun Temple is completely out of etiquette, Longshan is a small hill, the Tanjun Temple is on the top of the mountain, more than 100 steps along the mountain, to the outside of the temple, you can hear someone chanting: "There is no suitable rhyme, and the sex loves the hill." fell into the dust net by mistake and went for thirty years. The birds love the old forest, and the pond fish thinks about the old place. Open up the wilderness in the south, and return to the garden——"

Across a pine forest, only the sound of poetry is heard, but no one is seen.

Zhang Yuan heard the voice of the Jin priest, and asked the North Koreans around him: "Who is the chanter of Tao poets, who is indifferent." ”

Jin Zhongqing said: "Zhang Xiu, this bard is a very famous hermit in our state, surnamed Jin, known as Jin Shishi, who can be auspicious, proficient in medical skills, and swordsmanship. ”

Zhang Yuan said: "Is this Jin Shi so famous, the day before yesterday I visited the Datong Pavilion, I was not in good spirits, and I sent it away in a few words. ”

Liu Dongming frowned, this Pyongyang territory, what can be hidden from him, Jin Shi saw Zhang Yuan that day, he knew, Jin Shi also left the deaf and dumb woman in Datong Pavilion, it is said that it was to give acupuncture to the two angels who were not in good health-

Liu Dongming knew that Jin was a son of the Jin family in Jeonju, and he was a distant relative of the abolished concubine Jin, Liu Dongming did not have much doubt about this, the Jin family is a big family, and he has always been married to the Li family of the royal family, which is intertwined and complicated, Guanghaijun did not get angry with the Jin family in Jeonju because of the matter of Concubine Renmu, except for the execution of Jin Yinan, the father of Concubine Renmu, he did not connect with others, but deliberately wooed him, and this Jin priest who lived in seclusion in Longshan has been blind for many years, what can he do, so Liu Dongming did not care very much about the contact between Jin and Zhang Yuan, The most important thing is that Liu Dongming never thought that Zhang Yuan had the idea of subverting the throne of Guanghai Jun, he was only anxious to urge Zhang Yuan to leave as soon as possible, and after canonizing Li Yi as the prince as soon as possible, he sent Zhang Yuan back to China with a generous gift-

Jin Zhongqing went to invite the Jin priest to come over, the Jin priest only bowed to the great tomorrow, and the rest of the people he was arrogant and not polite, when Zhang Yuan worshiped Tan Jun with Liu Dongming, the Jin priest stood outside the hall with a bamboo cane, his eyes turned to the sky, and he sang poetry, this kind of arrogance sometimes became a good cover......
