Chapter 13: The Emperor Arrives
"She's been attacked again? What about people? Wei Qikang's hand was in the air.
"Yes, Jiang Li and Jiang Teng are now in Daye Temple.
This time it was at Ji Jian's grandmother's house, and all seventeen members of the family were killed.
When our men arrived, the mansion had burned down. Judging from the corpses, there were eight men who attacked, and seven were killed by knife wounds, which was the Jiang family's knife technique, which should have been done by Jiang Teng; One died from a dagger piercing the heart. ”
"Lord, are you going to leave your relatives today?" A woman asked, slowly raising her head, it turned out to be Heru of the sword that day.
"Tomorrow is the festival, tomorrow is the day."
"Yes!"
"Let's all go down."
"Yes!"
"Got it, let's go down."
Wei Qikang dropped the black chess pieces in his hand, picked up the wooden box in his hand and opened it, inside was the title deed and house deed of a house in Nancheng, and a stack of silver tickets from Baode Qianzhuang.
The money and the house were prepared for Jiang Li.
There is a golden hairpin at the bottom, which was picked up from the ground on the day Jiang Li was shot.
Wei Xikang picked up the hairpin, a very ordinary style, the golden hairpin is inlaid with a Hetian jade carved magnolia flower, the carving is not meticulous, the bottom of the petal is engraved with the word "orchid", Mu Yulan, Jiang Li's mother's name, this thing should be her mother's relic.
The first beauty in the capital, Wei Chukang squinted her eyes, when she saw her for the first time, her face was covered with blood, and she couldn't see the beauty or ugliness, just her eyes were full of horror and despair.
The second time I saw her, she was soaked and cold, her chest was covered with dark blood, and her eyes were resolute and lost.
The third time she saw her, she was a little apprehensive, and she looked at him with a disappointed look.
She hates him......
Wei put down the golden hairpin and put the wooden box in the drawer. Jiang Li is a poor woman, and he is destined to have his own way. Looking at the endgame on the chessboard, another white disc fell, and the chess game had already begun, and he could only win, not lose.
Daye Temple is presided over by the dustless master to preside over the transcendent ceremony, for the Tatarno siege of the "Gengzi incident" of the soul of the soul.
Emperor Tai'an brought the queen, Yao Guifei, and Song Xianfei to lead hundreds of civil and military officials.
In order to respond to the peace, the master of the remnant held a rare discussion of the scriptures.
For a time, Daye Temple was crowded.
Due to the large number of visitors, the festival was arranged in an open-air courtyard. The weather in this early spring is still very cold, but the ladies, young ladies, masters, and sons who have always been pampered and noble do not dare to move, so they can only keep rotating the hand warmers handed by the slaves and maids to ease the cold of the body.
Even the queens, concubines, and concubines in the first row all sat upright on their knees, but it was warmer with more carbon stoves around them.
The Burning Master sat upright on the high platform, closed his eyes, picked up a walnut on the table in the middle of the moment, crushed the shell with his thumb and forefinger, and knocked out the kernel on the plate. Slowly picked up the porcelain plate with his right hand, glanced at it, put it down again, and continued to close his eyes.
A group of good men and women in the audience looked at each other, and the topic of this year's thesis of the Master of Burning was "Life and Death".
What should be the interpretation of "combination and core", "shell and kernel", "broken and porcelain", and "end and release"?
Sure enough, he is a great teacher, who can use the most ordinary things and the simplest actions to introduce people into the most mysterious artistic conception.
Bai Yiyi was surrounded by famous dignitaries and nobles in the capital, and all the ladies and ladies turned their heads slightly, looking at the first talented woman in the capital, looking forward to her interpretation.
Bai Yiyi pondered for a moment and whispered: "I think the master should be reminding us that life can only be resolute because of benevolence; Take "compassion" as the body to release energy loads; "Rise" and "fall" are the laws of things, and we should treat them calmly in order to be calm. ”
Everyone nodded yes, worthy of being the first talented woman, smart and talented, and she was able to penetrate a little by the master.
Several high-ranking officials and marquises even showed appreciative smiles, constantly watching Bai Yiyi's every move with their spare eyes. Such a smart and clear-minded lady, not to mention her family background, she is the most sought-after candidate for daughter-in-law.
This interpretation provoked the queen to look sideways slightly and glance at it.
Ni Xiaoye, who was wearing a white plain skirt, stood in the attic of the side hall and watched this scene, and threw a snow-white walnut kernel into his mouth: he was sleepy and hungry, and he saw a walnut at hand and wanted to eat one, but found that it was rotten and couldn't eat it, so he could only continue to nap.
At sunset, the remnants finally ended the day's boredom and returned to their room to lie in a rocking chair.
Ni Xiaoye saw that his character had collapsed, and kicked his feet: "It's almost over, the emperor should look for you in a while." ”
The master stopped his rocking chair and waved his fingers: "It's not looking for me, it's looking for the two of us." ”
Ni Xiaoye grinned, straightened her dress, and cleared her throat: "Then I'll go and wait first." Then he pushed open the secret door and left.
However, after a cup of tea, the father-in-law Shao in front of the emperor called softly outside the door: "The master of the remnant is here, the emperor is invited." ”
No one answered, Shao Gonggong just wanted to speak again, the door opened, and a little monk came out and handed over a folded note with both hands.
Gonggong Shao hurriedly took it, turned around and went to the emperor.
Emperor Tai'an was sitting in the Puyun Palace, there was no joy or anger on his face, he took the note, and there were only three words on it, "Sick Leaf Zhi." ”
The emperor folded the note, stood up abruptly, and strode towards the Great Leaf Hall, his rapid pace revealing his anxiety and expectation.
Outside the Daye Palace, the emperor stopped, waved off the attendants around him, took a breath, and stepped into the hall.
