Chapter 43: An Can Tell Me from a Male and a Female (4)

On the second day of the draft, a nurturing grandmother was sent out to guide Chen Jingyan in various etiquette.

It's just that this is basically unnecessary - isn't there a nurturing grandmother from the palace in the prince's palace? Long before the draft, Hongtian allocated a full six grandmothers to her, teaching him how to wear and drink in daily life, what to sit and stand and bow down. There are also daily meeting gifts, the courtier's ceremony, the court's ceremony, the courtesy between peers, the salute when bowing lower than one's own position, and the salute for concubines, concubines, imperial concubines, queens and other nobles, whether they are used or not, they will be taught first, after all, nothing can be wrong in the palace.

On the first day of the sixth month of Qianlong, the selection of show girls was completed, and then a grace was issued. Among them, the Han army was under a white flag, so the daughter of Chen Shiqi, the imperial envoy of the left deputy capital, was canonized as a Jing nobleman.

The eunuch who came to deliver the decree lowered his eyebrows and pleasing his eyes, and first went to meet Hongyang, but was kicked out of the door by the prince - it was not the will of the lord, what nonsense - and then came to Chen Jingyan to announce the decree. Before leaving, I didn't forget to tell the main owner: "In the afternoon, there will be a car to pick up the little master into the palace, and the little master will wait for good news." ”

Chen Jiashi took fifty taels of silver and rewarded the eunuch who delivered the decree, and the sisters hugged their heads and cried again.

Here, Chen Jia's and Chen Jingyan's sisters are separated. Hongday saw that the matter had been decided, so he opened the door again and entered the palace. He naturally didn't know anything about competing for favor in the palace, so he first went to the palace of several concubines and asked them to teach Chen Jingyan well, and then re-enter the east and west palaces and practice that cultivation thing wantonly. When I left the Forbidden City, it was already the end of the day, and the time was already over.

According to the style of the past, he was about to leave around the time of the lantern, and now it is a critical moment, not the time to stay in the Forbidden City overnight. It's just that when she was in Ningshou Palace, the queen mother suddenly became obsessed with it for some reason, and she didn't care if she couldn't stand it or not. Even the concubines who were usually close to her were also quite pestering, but they also made them paralyzed like mud.

Zhao Kun didn't take it to heart. After all, the queen mother is only in her early thirties, and it is normal for her to have some needs. But when he returned to the palace, Han Bing, who was sweating profusely, came to report that an hour ago, Shangqingguan caught fire, and Yi Ying and others had secretly left the palace and brought people to rescue him.

Shangqing Guan is one of the important strongholds of the Immortal Sect in Beijing, and there are many blades, armor, firearms, and other weapons stored in the temple for the needs of the uprising. There are only two strongholds of the Immortal Sect in the capital to store military supplies, the Shangqing Temple is mainly weapons, and the other is mainly armor.

In the underground chamber inside the temple, there are 200 pairs of iron armor, 500 arquebuses, 2,000 short knives, and 5,000 spear heads, all of which are of the best quality from the cottage, and there are countless other fragmentary weapons. In order to protect this batch of equipment, the Immortal Sect has put a lot of effort into it.

This place is guarded by the best people in the church on weekdays, and there are many secret believers among the surrounding residents. In terms of face, this is a true Taoist temple, and the main Dharma name is Buxu - it is the only remaining protector of Shanxi Piao Gao Sect Yao Qin. There are many rich people and more poor people here, and it is extremely convenient to proselytize. He joined Zhao Kun very early, and he has been ordered to lurk, and he has always played the brand of Orthodoxy.

In recent years, he has devoted himself to the study of books such as "The Decree of the Ten Thousand Gods", "The Salvation Sutra of the Father", "The Quotations of the Holy Ancestor of Wuji", "Daozang" and "Huang Ting", and the Taoist art has been far beyond Jia Shifang, the Taoist priest of Longhu Mountain before Yongzheng drove back then. But he is plain and cautious, never shows his edge, and only saves people with the face of "ordinary heart, ordinary person", spreads heavenly principles, and accepts disciples. Even if he occasionally performs the Fa, only three or five apprentices can see it, and it is strictly forbidden to show off it among the people.

Therefore, from the big and small officials to the residents of the alleys, they only know that he is called "Bu Xu", understands fate, knows the wind and can heal, and is a Taoist priest of the Quanzhen Sect who does good deeds and helps the poor.

The pattern of Shangqing Temple is also different from other places, if a nearby house catches fire, it will never burn in the view. As for the accidental fire in the Guannei -- with the cautious and cautious nature of the step and the discipline of the Taoist priests in the Guannei, it is simply nonsense.

Zhao Kun knew that it was not good, so he hurriedly explained two sentences, and went straight to Shangqingguan out of the palace.

――――――――――――

Before he arrived at the place, Zhao Kun saw the dark sky at night, which reflected the fire red, and the burning sky was huge, with a large amount of ashes, rising straight up.

Zhao Kun's face was pale, he straightened the jade crown on his head, exerted force under his feet, and gradually approached Shangqingguan.

In the middle of the line, a whistle was suddenly heard, and dozens of masked people suddenly appeared on the roofs on both sides. The first person was dressed in black, and swooped down from the banyan tree on the left, and the human sword turned into a white rainbow, splitting the gold and cracking stones, and the sharp sound of breaking the wind sounded suddenly, killing Zhao Kun.

"Zhao Chuanqing, suffer death!" The man in black attacked without reservation, obviously with a determination to die.

Zhao Kun's face was gloomy, knowing that he had been ambushed, but he raised his left arm unhurriedly and clamped the tip of the sword with two fingers.

"The sword makes a good name, can you tell your name before you die?"

The man in black didn't answer. He stabbed forward hard, but it was difficult to get into proportion, and the rest of the masked people he saw were gradually approaching, and all kinds of hidden weapons were also coming from the rest of the directions, he exerted force with his left hand, and his two fingers had broken the blade, and then turned his fingers into fists, and a punch hit the opponent's door, and he screamed, and flew out in anger.

At this time, the hidden weapons issued by the masked man were already close, and Zhao Kun's sleeve robe was unfurled, and his right hand was light and elegant, and the fickle flick, those hidden weapons that came one after another lost their heads, drew an arc, and went towards the sleeve robe. Then Zhao Kun flung his right hand forward and exerted his strength again, and the hidden weapons of the internal force guides fell one by one, drawing even more bizarre arcs and heading towards their releasers.

After throwing the hidden weapon back with Dou Zhuan Xingxing, he didn't see any movement from Zhao Kun, and a three-foot Qingfeng suddenly appeared in his hand. Raising his sword in his left hand and shaking slightly, he looked at the fifty or so masked men, and sneered gloomily: "Ling Zhu's handwriting? Well, since you want to find death, I will fulfill you...... After three years of practice, now Yin Ji is standing in front of me, and there is only one way to die! ”

――――――――――――

The Temple of Nourishing the Heart.

After Qianlong Youzheng had dinner in the Yangxin Palace, he approved several pieces of music by candlelight, without the usual impatience, but he felt more and more tired, looking at the recital on the kang case, he seemed to hesitate a little reluctantly, or sighed, continued to pull a piece of music, and lifted the Zhu pen with one hand.

After reading several copies in a row, they were all excerpts of various disasters reported by the governor of other provinces, and looking at the mess, he finally began to get impatient. He put down the pen heavily, pressed his temples hard with his hand, and didn't want to look at the fold anymore. As soon as he raised his face, the eunuch beside him immediately understood, and as soon as he clapped his hands, the eunuch, the leader of the worship room, bowed over and knelt down with a lacquered gold and red sandalwood tray.

"Please ask the emperor to turn over the card."

Thinking of the shadow in the morning, Qianlong's heart was hot......
