Chapter 132: The Flower of the Other Side

It's spring again, the first month of spring, and the territory of the Northern Wei Dynasty is still in the snow.

The royal family will go to Songshan to worship the sky in this month, praying for good weather and peace for the country and the people.

Songshan is the birthplace of Taoism, and when the Northern Wei Dynasty opened the country, it emphasized Taoism and neglected Buddhism, and promoted Taoist culture.

Songshan is also known as the fairy mountain closest to the heavenly immortals. In many legends handed down in the Northern Wei Dynasty, the gods frequently visited Songshan and granted the Taoist immortal method of Songshan cultivation to the power of Gongguo.

After the Northern Wei Dynasty Taizu (Daowu Emperor) was profuse, it was not until the Northern Wei Dynasty that Emperor Taiwu carried forward his Taoism and flourished for a while. At that time, the national teacher Kou Qianzhi assisted the emperor to conquer many cities, and passed down mythical legends.

After Kou Guoshi returned to immortals, Emperor Wencheng of the Northern Wei Dynasty integrated the general trend of Buddhism into the culture of the Northern Wei Dynasty and began to build Buddhist caves.

The Northern Wei Dynasty sacrificed to heaven and earth, and every first month chose a good time, and the emperor and the civil and military officials walked together to pray to the gods.

The trip to Songshan, the important matter of the country, under the decree of the Empress Dowager, the king of Xianyang, the king of Beihai, went to Songshan a few days earlier to prepare for the matter and do a good job of security.

At the time of departure, King Dongyang, the Taiwei Emperor, led the imperial forbidden army to protect the royal chariot around Luan.

Such a large procession set off from Pingcheng to Songshan.

After more than half a month's trip, the royal family Luan drove to Yangcheng and stopped at the Yangcheng Ancient Palace to cultivate himself.

The forbidden army was encamped in a military camp outside the city.

Yangcheng is under martial law and heavily guarded, and each general is responsible for security.

I came with the car, and it was my first time in Yang City since I woke up from the Misty Forest.

Yangcheng is the most prosperous city at the foot of Songshan Mountain, and was the ancient capital of the Xia Dynasty. The Northern Wei Dynasty regarded Yangcheng as a military stronghold, and the defenders of the city would have a total of tens of thousands of troops.

After a series of rain and snow, it is rare for the first month to have a warm day. I was in the garden in the Yangcheng Palace to see if the spring leaves had sprouted.

Tuoba Hong has no time to be by my side, busy with his sacrifices, and I am very idle.

While admiring the flowers and trees, I was reminded of the first time I saw Tuoba Hong, when I didn't know that he was the emperor, and he didn't show himself as an emperor, when he was investigating the burning of the granary of the Yangcheng military camp.

The scene when he caught the criminals together with the King of Beihai in Hongyan Tower is still vivid in my mind at this time.

I suddenly remembered the day three years ago in the backyard of Hongyan Tower, if it hadn't been for the sudden appearance of a figure, I might have been crushed by the assassin at that time.

Thinking that Hongyan Tower was burned by fire, I don't know what it was like at this time.

Anyway, I had a lot of leisure, so I changed into light clothes and took Yinglin to go there to have a look.

Gao Xianzheng came to see me, saw that I was dressed in plain clothes, knew that I was going out, and said busily, "The emperor has explained to the minister, if the mother wants to go out, the minister must accompany him." ”

Ying Lin said vaguely, "The emperor really doesn't worry about his master." ”

I glanced at Yinglin, and she hurriedly shut up. Since Gao Xian wants to accompany him, I didn't shirk it, just let him accompany him.

When Yinglin and I came to the street outside the gate of Hongyan Tower, I saw that Hongyan Tower was still the same as it was back then, but it was brand new, and it seemed that Hongyan Tower had been rebuilt after being burned.

"Sister, go in and sit?" Gao Xian smiled lightly. On the road just now, he said that it was the first time he came to Yangcheng, and he had already heard that the most elegant and high-end place in Yangcheng belonged to this Hongyan Tower.

I wanted to go in and have a look, so I nodded in agreement.

The hall of Hongyan Tower is still the same as it was back then, and on the stage in the hall at this time, some Western Regions dancers are dancing. There are many guests in the lobby who are drinking, having fun and enjoying dance music.

The shopkeeper greeted us and took us to the second floor seat, which was still the same as it was back then, and you could see the downstairs style by the terrace window.

Gao Xian ordered many of the famous dishes in the store, and also prepared good sake. Ying Lin served me and Xian's drinks.

As I was quietly eating some food and drinking a little wine, there was a knock at the door. I looked at each other, and I didn't know who would knock on the door of our house.

Gao Xian stood up and walked over to open the door. When I saw that Xian Jiang opened the door, I was a little stunned, and after Xian retreated, I saw the person who knocked on the door.

It turned out to be You Ran.

He walked straight up to me, threw me over, and called me, "Mother." ”

My face was full of surprise and shock, and I said, "You Ran, you have disappeared for so long, but where have you gone?" ”

You Ran replied to me respectfully, "I just arrived in this Yangcheng, I saw Emperor Luan coming to the city, and I learned that Niangniang also came with me. ”

He said it soundingly, I know, it's because I still have Yinglin and Gao Xian in front of me.

I smiled faintly, "Since you're here, sit." ”

I gestured to the stool.

Gao Xian knew that when I was in Gaofu, I still valued You Ran a lot, and I didn't ask anything, he continued to sit down and drink and watch dance music by himself.

I understood that You Ran left because he said he was looking for something, and I don't know if he found it.

Gao Xian is here, and I don't want to ask deeply, so I just ask casually, "What you are looking for has already been recovered?" ”

You Ran smiled and replied to me, "My subordinates already have clues, and they will definitely be found in a short time." ”

"That's good." I smiled and wanted to ask him what he was looking for, but he certainly wouldn't say anything at this time.

Gao Xian, who was drinking on the side, still listened to our conversation, and asked suspiciously, "I said You Ran, you are a good errand in Gaofu, and you suddenly resigned, what important things do you want to find, let's hear it." ”

I thought You Ran wouldn't tell me, but I didn't expect him to smile flatteringly and say, "My subordinates are going to find the other side flower." ”

The flower of the other side, that is the flower that is said to lead to the underworld, the flower of the underworld. Legend has it that the flowers on the other side only bloom in the Yellow Spring, and it is generally believed that they are the leading flowers that only bloom on the banks of the Santu River in the underworld and on the other side of the Lethe River. The flowers on the other side are as bright red as blood, paving the road to hell, and they have flowers and no leaves, and they are the only flowers in the underworld.

Gao Xian and I looked at him suspiciously at the same time.

"What are you looking for the other side flowers?"

Gao Xian immediately asked.

"Niangniang may not know that the flowers on the other side are also called soul-attracting fireworks, and the fragrance of flowers is said to have magical powers, which can evoke the memories of the deceased before his death......"

You Ran Zhengse said slowly, his eyes looking at me.

I shuddered slightly, and suddenly understood what he meant.

In this way, You Ran wants to find the flowers on the other side and give them to me, so that I can smell the flowers and remember all the memories of Yihua.

Is that so?

While I was frowning, Gao Xian's gaze also looked at me, and after glancing at me, he looked at You Ran again.

He was still confused, and said suspiciously, "My sister's memory has been almost remembered, I don't need the other side flower, and besides, my sister is not a dead person, what do you need the other side flower, You Ran, aren't you troublesome." ”

You Ran didn't answer Gao Xian's question, and after smiling lightly at the corner of his mouth, he said softly, "It's not for Niangniang to look for you, the young master thinks too much." ”

I was silent, and I looked at You Ran again, I could see that what You Ran said to Gao Xian was a lie, and he must have been looking for me.

You Ran wants me to remember everything about Etoku.

We won't talk about this topic anymore, and after coming out of Hongyan Tower, You Ran said goodbye in front of me.

I know he's just showing the people around me, and he'll definitely be looking for a chance to see me. He was very loyal to Otoku, and his intention was obviously to make me remember all of Otoku's memories and become Otoku.

I didn't blame him, and I didn't try to stop him.

He's a good subordinate, and I can understand how much he really does for a person.

He has guarded the soul jade bottle of Yi Hua for so many years, and it can be seen from this that he has only lived for Yi Hua in this life, and his purpose is to resurrect Yi Hua.

How can I obliterate a man's faithfulness?

~~~~~~~~~

The festival was held the next day.

The emperor led the officials to walk to the sacrificial platform of Zhisong Mountain, burned high incense, knelt three times and bowed nine times, and prayed sincerely.

I didn't follow Songshan, so I asked Yinglin to stay in my bedroom and told her that if the emperor came to me after returning to the palace, he would say that I was not feeling well, and it was inconvenient to see each other during rest.

I changed into light clothes and walked out of the palace through the back door again, and just walked out of the alley, You Ran was waiting at the mouth of the alley.

I was surprised, I didn't expect him to guess so accurately, and I slipped out while the emperor was not in the palace.

I looked at him blankly.

You Ran had already prepared the horse, and after bowing to me, he said respectfully, "Master of the door, I want to go out." ”

When no one was around, he called me "Master of the Gate" again. ”

I smiled at the corners of my mouth, "Do you know where I'm going?" ”

"The master of the sect is going to the Valley of the Hidden Forest, isn't he?" He looked at me and said seriously.

My brow furrowed, "You also know the Valley of the Hidden Forest?" ”

The secluded forest valley is the place where Yi Ju lived back then, and it is the hermitage of her master Gu Moren.

He lowered his eyes and replied to me, "My subordinates know that the master of the door has brought his subordinates down to worship her master. ”

I brushed past him, got on the horse he was leading, and said to him, "Since we know, let's go." ”

He smiled, jumped on another horse, and followed me.

When I left the Valley of the Hidden Forest, I left by boat, should I still go to find that boat at this time?

There must be other ways into the valley. Except for the cave I found when I accidentally rolled down after leaving the Dream Immortal Residence.

Sure enough, You Ran did know a road, a very hidden mountain crevice, a road so small that only one person could pass sideways.

Horses can only be tied to tree trunks in the jungle.

Between the gaps in the stone walls of the mountain, you peel off the vine leaves that cover the gaps, revealing such a path.

Such a hidden place, if you don't know something, who would have thought of it.

Through the crevices at the bottom of the cliffs, you soon enter the jungle in the middle of the valley, where the thick rhizomes of the trees are exposed, and the foliage is lush and green.

The familiar feeling returned, and I not only remembered the more than half a month of living in this valley three years ago, but also remembered many deeds of Yihua living in the valley.

I walked quickly towards the hut by the lake.

You Ran followed me without saying a word.

He wasn't surprised I was so familiar.

I suddenly heard movement in the woods, and I froze.

I was afraid of a beast, but I felt like it was coming.

You Ran didn't move again, watching vigilantly at the place where the voice came from.

In a moment, a white figure emerged from the woods.

I saw those glowing eyes.

It lunged at me, and I held out my hands to meet it.

A snow-white wolf jumped in front of me.
