Chapter Seventy-Three: The Venerable Master
The three of them returned to the room, and at the door, they heard Mrs. Song asking Song Qing with a crying voice:
"The official is already on the rise, how can one or two sentences be like this? What do you want our orphans and widows to do? I've long suspected that the unicorn is demagoguery, why don't you listen? Seeing that he is now like that and the yard is full of red light, is he afraid that there are not enough rumors outside? I knew that he had hurt you in the past...... Woowoo woo ......"
Lu Xiaoqi asked Qilin wordlessly, and Qilin squatted on the ground and dug sand with his fingers, sullen.
Song Qing's generation of famous generals, loyalty to the world can be learned, but he is tired of fame, Rong Ma is scarred for half his life and has nothing to do, and finally dies of slander, Lu Xiaoqi is not angry, I think Song Qing himself should be the most resentful one, why is he calm now, is there really a unicorn in this?
Qilin was asked by Lu Xiaoqi, so he had to talk about what happened, he said, he didn't know what kind of things were good and what were bad, it was too difficult to distinguish.
Since it recognized the master, Song Qing heroic young man is full of spirit, and Qilinbi together to wait for the battlefield to the death, experienced a hundred battles and famous, among the soldiers, it is even more well-known, this good general is only up to the heavens, and finally received the grace, became the youngest general of the dynasty, and was in the limelight for a while.
The emperor not only gave the official title but also gave the luxurious mansion, one day when the chicken danced, Song Qingjian was sharp and accidentally cut the silk tied to the unicorn, seeing that the jade was about to get out and fall to the ground, the jade in the air was thick, and a flawless little Langjun rolled out on the spot.
Xiao Langjun had red lips and white teeth, and his eyes were clear, and he held the jade bi in his hand and handed it back to Song Qing, who looked stupid. Because of his poor appearance, Song Qing often used an iron mask on the battlefield, and when he arrived at the court, he was looked down upon by a group of noble-born ministers, except for a few old subordinates, and did not have a few friends.
This little Langjun looked at Song Qing's eyes differently, Song Qing had been on the battlefield for a long time, and understood that such a gaze was not malicious, so he was not afraid of him, and the arrogant dry cloud pulled the young man who appeared out of thin air to drink, and planned to take the opportunity to interrogate him clearly, but unexpectedly, the young man fell to the ground and turned into a soft real unicorn, snoring and spitting fireballs on all fours.
Only then did Song Qing know that this beautiful boy who appeared out of thin air was not a monster, but a unicorn that had always accompanied him. He thought that when the eldest brother handed over the unicorn bi to him, he was very solemn, saying that it was a family heirloom that could protect himself from evil spirits, and later the deadly secret arrow was blocked by this unicorn. What the elder brother said was true.
Thinking of this, Song Qing's bold temper came up, saying that since this jade is a family heirloom, the Qilin is also his second brother of Song, and the eldest brother died early, and the Qilin is his only relative. Since then, they have really been brothers, and they have lived together in this house in the name of the second son of the Song Mansion.
It's just that after only a few days of getting along, Song Qing found that Qilin was simple-minded and had no city government, just like an eight or nine-year-old child, he didn't understand all the profound words and deeds such as "extraneous voices" and "drunkard's intention is not in wine"!
Song Qing was very afraid that he would cause trouble outside because he was unreasonable, but fortunately, Qilin was an infatuated seed, and his whole mind was on the words "protect Song Qing", wherever Song Qing went, he was there, and when it was inconvenient, he would change back to jade. And there was no trouble.
This made Song Qing stay at home for most of the time he spent in Kyoto, and even for family affairs, it was his father-in-law who personally came to the door to drink, which was promoted.
He was in a high position and unsociable, and married a concubine from the same military attachΓ© family, so he naturally became the favorite object of Qingliu literati.
When the wedding banquet was made, there was an endless stream of people from outside to celebrate, and that day the unicorn came out to meet the guests as the only relatives and brothers, although the unicorn secretly went back after seeing the guests, but he was still smoked by the smell of wine to get the prototype, shaking his head and shaking his head in the garden. Some guests saw the white unicorn when they were drunk, and after they went back, they hyped it up, insisting that they saw his dog grow two horns and shine at the Song family, and he was going to turn into a dragon!
Song Qing came from a humble background and made steady progress, up and down, the domestic poor and reckless all praised him, taking him as an example, such public opinion was despised by the civil rights of the dynasty, and he had long wanted to find an opportunity to rectify him, and when he heard such a strange news, he added fuel to the fire, and spread this taboo rumor to the streets!
According to what Song Li said in Song Qing's ears, the news had reached the emperor's ears, and the Sacred Heart was displeased, but he didn't say anything.
Soon after Song Qing got married, the capital was dry for a long time and did not rain, the emperor led the civil and military officials to the altar to pray for rain, not to be lazy, that day Song Qing met the hungry people on the road to beg for food, others in a hurry to avoid it, he got off the horse and bought steamed buns to distribute to the hungry people. When he arrived at the altar, he was not later than Sheng Zhao's appointed time, but everyone arrived before him.
Everyone had already knelt down, and the emperor began to prepare the eulogy, and when he looked up, he saw Song Qing being the last to arrive in a hurry, kneeling in the last row. In the eyes of the emperor, as soon as he knelt down on his knees, there were thunderstorms and thick clouds on the altar, and it rained heavily in an instant!
All the ministers bowed and praised the emperor for his sincerity and the weeping ghosts and gods, and he prayed for rain so easily, of course, there were also a few people who noticed that the emperor looked at Song Qing differently than usual.
That's fear.
When the hungry people who had received Song Qing's favor heard this, they were more willing to help him preach it, thinking that this was a great thing, but they didn't know that they had become an accomplice, and they forced Song Qing into the infernal hell step by step.
Qilin said that the rain was brought together by the dark clouds that he had secretly run out to bite for many days after seeing Song Qing frowning for many days in the mansion. The reason why it was raining at that time was that Song Qing couldn't be seen kneeling under the sun, that's all.
Lu Xiaoqi listened to the story of the "loyal protector" of the Qilin, and he was saddened when he heard it, if this Qilin is also a lucky star in ordinary people, he will make his own decision in the officialdom and kill his general!
No wonder, Song Qing just said that the unicorn is also his calamity.
Lu Xiaoqi sighed, he couldn't save his life even if he was sick. Song Qing did not die of poisonous wine, but died of Junxin and fate.
This trip is likely to be in vain.
Back in the room, Song Li and his son were silent. Song Qing asked like a homely person:
"The guest is gone?"
Qilin nodded solemnly: "Go fast, you can't stop it." β
Song Qing couldn't help but laugh again, Ding Yao was still unsatisfied, and said that it was best to have a few more batches of such wretchedness, anyway, the ending could not be changed, if they didn't know what to do, then break the jar and let them be buried together.
According to historical records, the traitorous ministers used a trick to be too poisonous, and after figuring out the holy will, they used the plan to kill Song Qing and plot.
Originally, under the public opinion, everyone was already uneasy, and the old ministers were worried about the turmoil of the country, who would have expected that at this time, the traitorous ministers would deliberately jointly write a letter, and when the frontier was pacified and there was no war to fight, and Song Qing was idle, he asked for an official for him, so that no one did not think that this was Song Qing's self-reliance and self-reliance!
Who knows that the emperor deliberately rewarded him with the post of privy envoy, this is the right to transfer troops in this dynasty, it is not trivial, this dynasty has always been a literati, this is a hornet's nest, every day someone impeached Song Qing how to be unworthy, and even Geng Zhizhi, said bluntly: "What if he is a loyal minister now?" will lead the troops and can transfer the troops, and if you are disloyal one day, you will rebel if you want to! β
As soon as these words came out, Song Qing knew that he would definitely die.
The key is, how to die.
Soon, Song Qing was demoted to the border town.
The high place is unbearable, his merit is not voluntary, his debasement is not voluntary, and all the roads are involuntary.
It sounds like an extremely ridiculous thing, but in front of Jun Xin, it is the most ordinary.
Every day, he sent envoys to "visit", not to mention, but also coerced him with the word "loyal minister" to end it quickly, and he couldn't keep his name alive if he didn't want to make any more extraneous branches.
Song Qing looked at the spear hanging on the wall and said sadly:
"That is, as a minister, there should be a beginning and an end; Even if I don't know people well, I don't know people, I don't know people, I should taste the bitter fruits, the trend of the times, and I have to die for the sake of my wife and children, so I might as well be happy, give up this body, and be loyal and brave all my life. No loss. β
The speaker was unintentional, the listener was intentional, and with a pop, Lu Xiaoqi's brain was opened!
He ventriloquisted: "As long as we don't change the outcome of Song Qing's mortal body, we can play the rest freely." β
Qilin and Ding Yao heard this, and the three of them had a spirit in their hearts, and their eyes were bright!
"The Notes of the Good Jade Master" records that the jade spirit has no physical body, and the strongest jade spirit can be trained into a "tangible", but in fact, it is not a real physical body, it does not drown in the water, and it is not hot when it enters the fire, but it is just that ordinary humans can't distinguish it, even if there is no "shape", the jade spirit can still do what it should do, it has no effect, even if you find a way to cut off the human head, the jade spirit will still not be destroyed.
In the good jade family, Lu Xiaoqi saw a unicorn who could speak without a face, and he was no longer surprised after knowing that he was a jade spirit, precisely because of this reason.
"As long as the body of the unicorn is lifted, the general's soul can be reborn with it, and the unicorn can return to the jade by yourself. The golden cicada sheds its shell, the best of both worlds! β
When the Kirin heard that this was the solution, he immediately showed discouragement, and said:
"I've tried this before, but it doesn't work."
Lu Xiaoqi listened to his reminder, and also remembered that the shape of the jade spirit was originally supported by the power of the jade spirit, and when the human soul was used, without the creation of the heaven and earth of the jade spirit, only the three souls and seven spirits could not support it. From the perspective of the overall situation, if the tangible jade spirits all do this, wouldn't it be a big mess in the world?
Ding Yao listened to them, propped his chin as if listening to a story, and said lightly: "That's it? β
Lu Xiaoqi was overjoyed: "Do you have a way?" β
Ding Yao Nunu mouthed: "It's not me, it's you, you have a way." β
There was nothing else, Lu Xiaoqi was most annoyed that she didn't explain her mysterious secret words clearly, and said impatiently: "Don't sell it, there is no money to give." β
When Qilin heard this, he hurriedly brought a box: "I have money, I'll give it to you, sister, say it quickly!" β
Ding Yao opened the box, took out a bracelet and put it on: "Okay, since you have received the money, then I will help you with this." β
She admired the bracelet enough, and asked Qilin with a smile: "Let me ask you, why do you call him a master?" β
Qilin looked like a good student, and immediately raised his hand and replied:
"What's so strange? It can be a human being, a spirit, an immortal, that is, the leader of our clan, and he is called the Venerable Master. β
