Chapter 54: Bamboo Circus Becomes Lingbo Step, Peony Borrowed as Magnolia Fragrance (Middle)
"Your name is Qingyun, right?
It looks pretty well-behaved, so let's sit and talk first.
Mr. Worm Two, you also sit. ”
Although Empress Dowager Feng has experienced the ups and downs of the Three Dynasties, she is actually not yet in her sixtieth year, and her eyes are still full of brilliance.
As soon as her eyes fell to Mulan's side, the worm er naturally understood, and couldn't help but blush with embarrassment, and came over step by step, saluting the three of them separately, and didn't dare to make a sound, sitting under Mulan like a little daughter-in-law.
Although Qingyun was nervous, his heart was bright,
When he saw Empress Dowager Feng speak, he knelt on the ground first with a pop, and clenched his fists to say goodbye.
"Qingyun saluted the priest,
The eldest brother Yuan monk often mentions the past of the monk, and today he finally saw the master himself.
General Mulan is well!
Don't come unharmed! ”
After saying this, he flicked his hem, got up in a dashing manner, and without waiting for anyone to greet him, he picked a futon and sat down.
This set of operations not only takes into account the number of etiquette, but also does not appear too worldly, chic and coherent, without any stage fright.
The old queen mother nodded frequently,
"Well, this kid is good at making friends, and his vision is really good.
He was able to bow to you, and the old body was a little surprised.
When I see it today, I know why.
I also saw your father once when I was old, and I was really a tiger father without a dog. ”
Qingyun heard that the other party suddenly mentioned his father, his heart tightened, and he suddenly remembered that the old woman in front of him was also one of his father's assassination targets that day.
The change in his face was naturally seen by the Empress Dowager Feng.
But she was unmoved, and continued,
"Since you have come to the back mountain, you may need to think about it for a while, this is what Hu Dudu meant.
I didn't leave you here for fear that you would reveal the secrets of your old body,
What makes these juniors make a fuss at the moment, although the behavior of the old body is not known to the world, it is not a big secret.
In fact, on the contrary, Shaoxia has a lot of past events that he wants to explore, and it is up to you to find the truth by yourself.
When you saw Xiao Jingling a few days ago, you didn't deliberately mention Ling Zun, right?
If you take the initiative to talk to him about the past, you should have a lot to talk about.
It is more credible for him to tell some cause and effect than to tell you about it in his old body.
This is the main reason why the old body sees you in person today,
As for other matters in the red dust, there are two generals to share with you. ”
The more Qingyun listened, the more confused he became, what did his father have to do with Xiao Jingling of the Southern Dynasty after his father died in an attempt to assassinate the Northern Emperor?
Thinking so in his heart, he couldn't help but ask.
Empress Dowager Feng's face was kind, as if she was in a fixed state, reciting the scriptures silently in her mouth, smiling and no longer speaking.
General Mulan, who sat at the bottom, replied,
"Tuas is tired today.
What she should have said has been made clear.
The matter of Lingzun back then also had a big impact on Tuas,
The warmth and coldness of the people, and the enlightenment overnight, gave birth to the idea of being born later.
Qing Xiaoxia can move freely in the back mountains during this time,
If you really want to study the events of the year in detail, you might as well talk to Xiao Jingling more.
That past has been held in his heart for a long time,
Now that Qing Yihan's descendants are here, he will definitely take the initiative to talk to you.
Oh, here's the token of the old body,
If you hold it, no one will embarrass you in the back mountains.
It's just that if you want to leave, you have to ask Hu Dudu what he means, this is not up to the old man. ”
Hu Shiyu was noncommittal a few times.
Qingyun smiled knowingly, he had already understood that this Longtan was difficult to enter and even more difficult to come out.
Since Empress Dowager Feng and General Mulan both thought that they could learn about their father's secrets of assassination at Xiao Jingling, they might as well stay at ease for a few days before making plans.
So he remained silent and reached out to take the token handed over by General Mulan.
That token is just an ordinary bronze medal,
One side is engraved with three insects and birds seal "Fengyue Lord",
On the other side is the six characters, which are used in a square stele -
"General Wei Xiaolie Flower".
When Qingyun saw these six words, his smile suddenly froze,
He has been reading and reading with Uncle Chen since he was a child, with four books and five classics, and he is also a little involved in the hundreds of schools, and he is still a little proud of his literacy and hyphenation.
But there is one of these six words in front of him that he doesn't recognize, obviously, this word should be the surname of General Mulan.
If such a key word is mispronounced, it would be a big faux pas, so he took the sign with a sad face, not daring to squeak, for fear that something would go wrong in the conversation.
Empress Dowager Feng seemed to be settled, but in fact, a pair of old eyes were also peeking at Qingyun, seeing his current appearance, her two shriveled lips pouted forward, as if she was trying her best to control herself from laughing.
General Mulan seemed to have known this, and a slightly mocking smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.
If it is only about age, she is older than the Empress Dowager Feng, but this smile is narrow, but she is not half old-fashioned.
"The surname of the old body is indeed a bit strange. I don't know if I want to come to Qing. ”
Seeing General Mulan's smiling face, Worm Er's heart shook for a while, and his feelings were undiminished.
It was rare for him to see Mulan so interested and wanted to hear more from her, so he beat the side drum,
"This little baby is simple, you don't want to sell it.
It's rare for someone to listen to you talk about the past now, and you still don't give people the whole understanding? ”
General Mulan glanced at Empress Dowager Feng, and saw that the latter couldn't help but smile, nodding frequently, and then spoke,
"If you want to talk about the surname of Lao Shen, it is really a long story.
The old man's surname is Hua (the author's case: here is the sound of He, see the endnotes of the volume), this word is rare and tight, and it is really created by the ancestors.
The ancestor of the Hua family was after the Eastern Han Dynasty rode General He Miao.
At that time, General He Miao and his brother Jin killed ten eunuchs, eliminating harm for the country, being jealous of traitors, and harming the whole clan.
In order to avoid disaster, the ancestors changed their name and surname, took the sound of the word, the meaning of the nursery, and borrowed the Hua Shi Hua (the author's case: there was no flower word before the Northern Wei Dynasty, and the flower must be called Hua), and created this flower word.
The Hua family was passed down to this dynasty, and it was not a prestigious family.
It's just that in the early years, the deeds of the old man serving in the army for his father were investigated by Emperor Taiwu, and he wanted to pay attention to the holy grace and edict Hua into Pingcheng.
At that time, Emperor Taiwu did not know this word, so he casually read it as Huashi Zhihua.
Although he knew his mistake, how could Chrysostom change it?
He gave this flower word to the king of Baihua, the peony newly bred by Luoyang Huajiang at that time.
The flower and the Chinese sound are the same, so it is settled.
In order to avoid the embarrassment of the old body, Emperor Taiwu gave the old body the same surname as the country.
All official edicts and official seals are called Wei's, and handwritten private notes are still used by Hua's. ”
When Empress Dowager Feng heard this, she suddenly opened her eyes and added with a long sigh,
"Emperor Taiwu really valued General Hua very much at that time, so he naturally moved some thoughts that General Hua was inconvenient to say clearly.
General Hua's attitude was very resolute at that time, and her heart was only open as soon as the dragon's mouth was opened, and it would be difficult to change.
He swore in front of the Golden Palace of Emperor Taiwu that he would be loyal to the country and never marry.
It's a pity that the second insect next to me,
He was famous and graceful back then, and he was also a leading figure in the rivers and lakes.
Because he fell in love with General Hua, who vowed not to marry, he wasted his youth. ”
Mr. Worm Er on the side was already a little uncomfortable listening to it, his old face was stained, and his body inadvertently moved outward twice.
Empress Dowager Feng pretended not to notice and continued to talk,
"In fact, the most regrettable thing is that General Hua is still wielding a Chinese knife.
During the reign of Emperor Xianwen, under the persuasion of the old body,
Emperor Xianwen inherited a boy from the nobleman Wei clan to inherit the mantle of General Hua, and his mother served General Hua.
That is the famous sword general Wei Xian in the army today,
Two years ago, I heard that Wei Xian gave birth to a big fat boy again, with a long life.
Although General Hua has a grandson, he is tired of his old body and has never even seen him.
Ay! The so-called birth of the old body even affects the closest people. ”
