Chapter 240: Nanzhao Customs
After Princess Yunhua walked over, Kou Shu didn't have much interest in playing. In the past, she was in the deep palace, and although Kou Mang reported the news, she knew too little.
The land of the Nanzhao country is very hidden. In addition, everyone doesn't care much about Nanzhao, so they haven't learned much about the customs of Nanzhao. I don't know if Song Jinyan, who is far away in Daxuan, knows that there is such a character as Princess Yunhua in Nanzhao Kingdom.
She went out today with not only ripples and mandarin ducks, but also Yuan Ling and Yuan Song. Compared with Yuan Yun and Yuan Ming, these two people have been in Nanzhao for a long time and understand more. As for Yuanwu...... His temper is too arrogant, and Kou Shu doesn't plan to reuse it.
After thinking about it, and walking to a remote place, Kou Shu summoned Yuan Ling over and asked, "In Nanzhao Kingdom, is there a saying that the empress has ascended the throne?" ”
Yuan Ling was stunned for a moment and shook his head: "There is no statement that the empress of the Nanzhao Kingdom has ascended the throne. However, the successive emperors of Nanzhao Kingdom were all sons-in-law on the throne, and there was never a situation where a concubine ascended the throne. ”
Kou Shu sneered when he heard this: "An emperor of Nanzhao can set up three queens, of course he can let the son born to the queen ascend to the throne." ”
Yuan Ling said with a strange expression: "It's not like this, although there will be three queens in an emperor in Nanzhao, but these are three queens, and only the original one is called the big queen." All the emperors of Nanzhao were born to the Great Empress. ”
"Is it like this?" Kou Shu frowned.
Yuan Ling didn't know what she was thinking, and seeing that she didn't ask again, she quickly retreated, hiding in the crowd, faintly protecting around Kou Shu.
The queen of Nanzhao Kingdom has not had a son, and the second prince Chu Ci is the queen's sister-in-law. It's just that the second prince died early, and now no one mentions it anymore, and there is only Princess Yunhua under the queen's knees.
Since the princes of Nanzhao Kingdom are all the queen's concubines, why is Princess Yunhua building momentum like this? Chu Li...... Kou Shu suddenly reacted, Chu Li is the crown prince of Nanzhao and the concubine of Empress Nanzhao. It's just that Chu Li's sense of existence has always been too low, and he hasn't been mentioned by Nanzhao's people, so Kou Shu actually forgot about him for a while.
Can...... Will Chu Li really appear in Nanzhao? Princess Yunhua's momentum is for herself, or for the sake of Chu Li's return in the future, the second princess is so good, isn't it better for His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, the brother of the second princess's compatriots?
Kou Shu was stunned for a moment, and suddenly there was a cheer not far away. She looked up and saw ripples trotting over with joy on her face: "Master, it is said that there are traditional activities of the Nanzhao Kingdom, and now many people are watching it." ”
Seeing Ripple's excited look, Kou Shu looked at the mandarin ducks beside her, and saw that her eyes were also full of excitement, and smiled: "In that case, let's all go and have a look together." ”
Trapped in the deep palace, like a trapped beast, he doesn't see the light of day. It's hard to come out, maybe it's time to be reckless. Thinking about it, Kou Shu smiled and said, "It's hard to come out, you can play how you want." ”
Ripple heard the cheers and ran away. Xu has been embossed in the deep palace for a long time, and now he is letting go all of a sudden, and the whole person is floating. Although the mandarin duck was a little moved when he listened, he still stayed by Kou Shu's side.
"Why don't you go?" Kou Shu asked strangely.
The mandarin duck smiled faintly: "There must always be someone to serve the master." ”
Kou Shu smiled, and it was up to her to go.
The two of them walked towards the lively place together, only to see that both sides of the road were full of people, and at the end of the road, someone carried a soft sedan car in the distance. On the sedan chair sat a woman dressed very ceremoniously, sitting upright without smiling, without squinting.
The maid who followed by the sedan chair scattered the petals in the flower basket in her hand to the side of the road.
Occasionally, the woman in the sedan chair would grab a handful of things from her hand and scatter them, but at this time, passers-by on the side of the road rushed to get the things that the woman spilled.
Kou Shu's eyes were sharp, and she saw that she was just folding paper-like things.
"What is this?" The sound of ripples sounded in front of her, and Kou Shu calmed down, listening to the answer of the person next to her.
"You don't even know this, is it the first time you've come to Nanzhao?" The person next to him looked up and down a few times and shook his head: "Don't people bring their families out now and don't teach them?" These customs known to three-year-old children in Nanzhao. ”
was despised for a while, and Ripple gritted his teeth and asked, "Then may I ask, what is this?" She held her hand high, holding a piece of paper that had fallen into a square victory.
"Ah, you actually grabbed it." The man said in surprise, and the people next to him also looked at the ripples with envy.
Ripple looked at the thing in his hand and guessed that it was very great for Nanzhao's people, so he wanted to know even more: "Tell me, what is this?" ”
"It's the blessing of the Holy Maiden." There was another person in the crowd who answered.
"Holy Blessing?" Kou Shu frowned slightly.
The people next to her didn't understand when they saw her, so they explained: "The saint is the saint of our Nanzhao's saint daughter sect, and she rarely shows up on weekdays. It will only come out once or twice a year to bless our Nanzhao people. What the woman was holding in her hand was the holy paper that the saint had folded with her own hands and had prayed for in front of the great immortals. ”
Kou Shu's face was a little strange, and the "holy paper" sounded like a holy decree.
She looked at the ripples and was a little embarrassed in the envy of everyone, squeezed out the crowd and stuffed the "holy paper" into Kou Shu's hand: "Master, they all say that it is the blessing of the Holy Maiden of Nanzhao, since we are here, we will follow the customs, and we will also be touched by their blessings." ”
Kou Shu smiled and shook her head: "Since you got it, that's your blessing, you just take it." ”
"Yes, this holy maiden has never sent it out, but she is afraid that she will be invaded by evil spirits because she is afraid of sending away the blessings." The person next to him saw that Ripple wanted to give the "holy paper" to Kou Shu, so he persuaded him.
Ripple hesitated, not knowing whether to take it or not.
"I'll let you hold it, you just have it." Kou Shu said with a slight smile.
After a while, suddenly a member of the Holy Maiden Sect returned, walked through the crowd to Kou Shu and said, "This young lady, the Holy Maiden is invited." ”
Kou Shu was stunned, she and this saint were just one side, not to mention that people were standing tall, she was standing in the crowd and looking up. How did this holy woman know hers?
However, before Kou Shu refused, the people around her pushed her to the side, afraid that she would not go, and someone explained: "The saint has to pick someone to pray for every year, and this year she has chosen you, which is a good thing, you go quickly." ”
It's a good thing, yes, but why did you just pick her?
Kou Shu hesitated, a hint of surprise flashing in her eyes.
She never believed that fate would favor her, so she didn't believe it was just an accident.
