Chapter 4: The Priesthood

I don't know how long I slept this night, and when I woke up again, I was awakened by hunger, and when I opened my eyes, what I saw was still the same antique house as before I went to bed, the bed made of pear blossom wood, and the silk brocade quilt, is all this true?

Seeing Sang Ma lying on the table in the distance and already asleep, his brows were tightly locked, such a young child is about to learn to serve people, and it is pitiful to think about it, should I be nice to her.

Rubbing his swollen head, he lifted the quilt and stepped on the floor barefoot, walked to the table and poured himself a teacup of water and drank it. Xu is the sound of pouring water is a little loud, Sang Ma frowned and opened his eyes, and saw that it was me who "plopped" and knelt on the ground and shouted that the slave should die, so shocked that I almost threw the cup on the ground.

"What's wrong with you, what are you doing?" Asked her helplessly, the little girl replied timidly, "The slave is guilty, she shouldn't be asleep, the slave is guilty." ”

What a big deal, I called her to get up and serve me to sit on the edge of the bed, and she ran to bring me a basin of water to wash my feet, saying that the princess could not walk barefoot on the ground, and that she was stained with dust.

The master and servant chatted with each other and not, and it was only when I asked her to answer that I figured out the era I was in.

It is possible that the space is dislocated, and the dynasty in which we are now located is the Southern Dynasty. Now I am in the imperial capital of Yanjing in the southern country, and the current emperor is the twenty-eight-year-old Huangfu Chen, whose country name is Shiyuan.

Huangfu Chen has two sons under his knees, the eldest prince Huangfu Qihao is twelve years old, and the second prince Huangfu Ziqing is nine years old.

And I, the owner of this body, Helan Jiuli, is the youngest daughter of the owner of Liangzhou, a small affiliated country around the southern country.

When he was born, the whole Liangzhou was full of red clouds, and he didn't know how to be said by the high priest of the south to be an auspicious saint who descended from the sky, so the southern emperor decreed that Helan Jiuli was given the princess of Ning'an, raised in the deep palace of Liangzhou, and sent to the south at the age of eight, and Liangzhou will be blessed by five cities and the military protection of the south.

In this dynasty, only the royal family has the qualification to compound the surname, and the surname of the imperial family has naturally become the only surname in the whole country, and the non-royal family with major merits may be given the compound surname, but there are too few such people. Most of the nobles and commoners were only single surnames.

To the north of the southern kingdom there is also a Mongolian country, with the country name Jin, the imperial surname Chahar, and the Han surname Jin.

Although the southern country is strong, the dispute between the imperial court and the martial arts is incompatible, and the Jin country has been ready to move, trying to go south. And Liangzhou had too few troops and remained neutral. Today's world is roughly the showdown between the southern kingdom and the golden country.

This Sang Ma looks like he is only eleven or twelve years old, I can't imagine that a slave knows so much, it seems that this child is really not to be underestimated, if it is not arranged by others, it can be slowly gathered into his own henchmen. However, I am an eight-year-old child, and I really can't figure out what to prevent.

"Sangma, how long is it until the date of my canonization?" I couldn't digest these shocking news for a while, so I had to change the topic.

"Back to the master, there are three days left. The high priest said it was an auspicious day for the zodiac. "The high priest, who is also the priest, the source of this feudal superstition, blames this priest for marrying the twenty-eight-year-old uncle when I am only eight years old.

"Oh, and will the wound on my forehead affect the ceremony?" As I spoke, I touched my head with my hand, and suddenly found that the tied brocade cloth had been removed, and I didn't know what was applied around the wound, it was cool and slimy.

"No, the high priest specially sent someone to bring a tube of ointment, and in less than two days, the wound on the princess's head will naturally heal." Sang Ma wiped my feet with a donor cloth, and then pulled a piece of yellow paste from a palm-sized box, ready to wipe it on my feet, but I quickly dodged it.

"This, this, what are you wiping? Like butter. He looked at the unknown piece of paste with disgust, greasy, and uncomfortable.

"This is Yungui ointment, the princess's daughter's delicate body, she stepped on the ground just now, and she must take good care of it." Sang Ma looked at me with a smile, it may be that I am relieved now, and her tone has become more kind, and she no longer has the fear she had when she first met.

"No, no, no, you take it back, I'm fine. Don't smear this kind of thing. Listening to Sang Ma's words, I hurriedly waved my hand, this kind of thing smeared on my feet, and it didn't tire me to death. Sang Ma looked at me with a resolute attitude, and he was not reluctant, so he had to put the Yungui paste in his hand back into the box.

"Sang Ma, who is that high priest, and why are his words so effective?" What kind of bullshit high priest is this, I have become like this, what Sang Ma said is so magical, maybe he can know how to send me back to modern times.

"A high priest is a high priest, and I have never seen it. I heard other palace maids say that he lives in the best and highest palace of the imperial palace, which is more luxurious than that of our emperor, and some people say that the high priest is extremely handsome, like a fairy. As long as there is a major event of natural and man-made disasters, the emperor will ask the high priest to watch the stars, and there is ............ "Tut-tut, bah, what high priest is, he is a liar, can such a thing as natural and man-made disasters be avoided?"

Isn't it just to look at the stars, although in this era it is indeed good to guess the weather based on the stars, but it has nothing to do with life and death at all, okay, I think this high priest is a big liar. I still don't expect him to send me back to modern times.

The next morning, the sky was still bright and I was served by Sang Ma to get up, and the clothes were three layers inside and three layers outside, but because the gauze was so thin, the body was still a little cold.

Yesterday, I knew how important I was, and I became more and more unscrupulous. I've been a little angry when I got up since I was a child, and I didn't have a good face when I came together, so scared that the palace maids who were waiting for me to change my clothes and wash my face trembled, but Sang Ma said some happy words to make me laugh.

Sitting in front of the bronze mirror when combing my hair, looking at the somewhat beautiful but unfamiliar face in the mirror, I was stunned for a moment. The palace maid who combed her hair took out a lot of beads from the jewelry box and asked me which one to wear, all of which were bright colors, if it turned out that Princess Ning'an would definitely like it very much, but I was a person in my twenties who couldn't accept it, so she picked a few strands of hair around her forehead and put them on the side of her ears, pasted a few small pearls, and the rest of her long hair was draped over her shoulders, slightly pure.

When I looked at this body carefully when I was dressing, this face, the young Jiuli face was actually slightly bewitching, and the smile between the eyebrows and eyes was intoxicating, such a look was really good for me?

"Princess, I am going to see the High Priest today and ask him to pray for your blessing." Sang Ma helped me smooth out the last fold on my shirt and said softly.

Oh? Last night I was still thinking about how I could meet the priest of the liar, and I am going to meet him today, God help me, I nodded, and walked out of the inner room, and was dragged by someone after a few steps.

"Oh, my master, I haven't brought the veil yet, what's the hurry, you have some breakfast first, and the slave maid will go to prepare the palace car." Veil... Breakfast... Miyakura..., do you need to be so troublesome? It's not dawn this day, what kind of breakfast is it? The appearance of this body is indeed amazing, but an eight-year-old child has to wear a veil when he goes out? Well, Miyako I can take it, I don't like walking.

Without waiting for me to answer, the other two little palace maids waited for me to sit in the outer hall and pour tea and water.

Watching those palace maids put the meals in the plates in their hands on the table one by one, it was just a breakfast, and they actually put five plates and three bowls. Sang Ma saw me looking at the food in front of me dumbfounded, and smiled stupidly, "Master, are you hungry?" Last night, I was instructed not to let the master eat greasy, so the imperial dining room only made lotus cake and yellow cinnamon porridge. Today, the slave maid sent someone to pass the meal, and the people who passed the meal were already standing at the gate of the palace of Yilan Palace, and said that it was ordered by the second prince before the morning class. ”

Second prince? Huangfu Ziqing? That handsome little guy who is as gentle as jade? What a caring child. Looking at the exquisite food in front of me, my saliva was about to flow down. Before I could do anything, Sang Ma had already asked a palace maid who specialized in serving the meal to stand beside me.

"Master, this is snow cake." After saying that, I took a snow ball with silver chopsticks and put it in the empty dish in front of me. This snow cake is wrapped in grated coconut, and the inside of the bite is breaded with red bean paste, soft and glutinous, sweet with the unique fragrance of red beans. I was about to clip the second piece when the plate was removed.

"Master, the slave and maid will bring you a bowl of custard." After saying that, I scooped a little so-called egg custard from a blue and white porcelain bowl with a spoon and put it into the white jade bowl in front of me, which was not much bigger than a teacup. The egg liquid is steamed in a whole bowl, sprinkled with fine coriander and onions, and a few drops of sesame oil, although the ingredients are small, but the egg custard is just thick, like egg pudding and lying in the bowl.

I scooped it with a small spoon in less than two bites, and then I could only watch the bowl of egg custard drop from under my nose.

I was itching to eat this meal, every plate of food was delicious, but why waste so much, only let me eat one bite!!!!!

After finishing breakfast and rinsing my mouth with flower tea, Sang Ma brought over a veil as thin as a cicada's wings and tried to help me put it on, can such a thin thing really cover my face? But I don't understand the rules of the palace, so I can only toss them around.

When I sat on the palace car, the sky was already bright, and the sun was falling on the horizon red, as if rising and falling, slightly naughty.
