Volume 1 Qingxuan Youdao 79. Years in the mountains
"Little Master, why didn't you go to the mountain gate to meet me today?"
As guessed, the person who came was Ling Shuang.
A few days ago, the head of the Xuanyi Sect informed the Qingxuan Mountain Ancestral Court of the decree. Then she and her disciples returned to the mountain gate today.
When he broke into Sima Wen's residence, although Ling Shuang's words were reproachful, his tone could not hide his joy.
Although Jiangdong is much more prosperous than Shu County, and Xuanyi's disciples are also more respectful, she still doesn't like it there. After returning at this moment, I felt extremely comfortable in my heart.
"Something, delayed. Sima asked a brief response.
When Ling Shuang will return, he doesn't know, and no one in the sect will tell him.
Sima asked him not to tell the truth because he knew Ling Shuang's temperament. Even if she explained it truthfully, she wouldn't listen. Ling Shuang cared about the result of not greeting her, not the reason.
After Ling Shuang heard this, she was full of suspicion.
Before coming to his house, she had feared that it was empty. But when I saw him at this time, he didn't look like he was doing something.
"Huang Ling, what's the matter here?" When Ling Shuang was suspicious, Sima asked him to speak again.
Hearing the inquiry, Ling Shuang finally noticed something abnormal. On weekdays, when the two call each other, Sima asks her rarely by her Dao name.
Full of joy, but being wronged at this time, Ling Shuang didn't open her mouth to respond, chose a seat on the side, and sat down with her mouth pursed.
Ling Shuang returned, and Sima Wen was also happy in his heart. But only half a year has passed, and the words spoken by Huang Xiao on the high platform are still lingering in my ears.
The room fell silent, Sima asked for a long time without hearing a reply, looked sideways, and after seeing Ling Shuang's expression, his heart suddenly softened.
"Ling Shuang, is the coarse jade I handed over to you last year still there?" and when he spoke again, his tone softened. He is not a ruthless person after all, and this matter is not Ling Shuang's fault.
And thinking that he had politely explained to Huang Xiao before, and was angry with Ling Shuang at this time, Sima Wenzhi also felt that he was unreasonable. Being respectful to strangers and being cruel to acquaintances is the most incompetent and unforgivable.
"No. ”
Ling Shuang was not angry with him in the first place, and replied after hearing the change in salutation and tone. It's just that Fang Cai was a little complaining in his heart after being troubled for no reason, and the words of his reply were not kind.
"Why?" Sima blurted out after hearing this.
"When I came back, I ran out of dry food, and I didn't have any silver taels on my body, so I exchanged your coarse jade for two wheat cakes, and shared them with my uncle. Ling Shuang still responded with resentment.
"It's a pity, it's a pity. Sima Qianzhi sighed again and again.
"There's no pity. Seeing Sima Qianzhi's regret, Ling Shuang's mood improved and she began to talk to him, "Although the wheat cake is rough, it can satisfy the stomach." As for the coarse jade, I will give you a better one in the future. ”
But when Sima asked, Ling Shuang didn't understand.
That piece of jade was not coarse jade, and even if it had to be changed, it would be far more than two wheat cakes. Therefore, Sima Wenzhi did not agree with Ling Shuang's explanation, and still regretted it repeatedly.
"In the first year of Yuanxi of the previous dynasty, the prince of Jin was captured by traitors and taken hostage from Jiankang City. The five armies and two guards desperately rescued to no avail, and Yu Yizhou lost his trace. ”
When Sima asked and regretted it again and again, Ling Shuang began to recite something. As he recited, he took the piece of thick jade from his bosom and began to shake it in front of him.
What Ling Shuang said at this time was told by others.
Before returning to the mountain gate, one day when she was rubbing this jade, she was seen by a cadre who came to visit the head of Xuanyi Sect and told her the ins and outs of this jade.
After she knew the origin of this piece of jade, she naturally guessed the identity of Sima Wenzhi. Therefore, it is natural that she will not exchange it for wheat bread, as she just said. Ling Shuang deceived with lies, not only to see how Sima asked him to react, but also to take revenge for making things difficult for no reason before.
"What do you mean by 'Former Dynasty' just now?" Ling Shuang knew his identity, and Sima asked without surprise. But the word "former dynasty" in the words made him fall into the abyss suddenly.
"I, this..."Ling Shuang consciously said the wrong thing, and didn't want to answer after being asked.
"Hurry up, if not, get out of here!" Sima Wenzhi's face changed suddenly and he shouted loudly.
"No, you can't go, you have to say it. Just after yelling, he changed his mind and forcibly left Ling Shuang behind. Except for Ling Shuang, I don't know who else knows about this matter. Even if he knew who else knew, he couldn't wait to find the man.
"On Ding Mao Day in June this year, Liu Yu, the king of the Song Dynasty, was proclaimed emperor and established the Song State, which has been established at the beginning of the Yuan Dynasty. Sima asked that this had never been the case before, and Ling Shuang saw that he was not a child's play, so he hurriedly replied.
Jiangdong is very close to Jiankang, and Liu Yu's second son is in charge of Luling, and the Liu family replaces the Sima family in charge of the imperial power, and the women and children in Luling City know it.
"What happened to the Emperor of the Jin Kingdom?" Sima asked again, his face becoming more and more anxious.
A few days before Liu Yu became emperor, Emperor Jin had moved back to Langya's palace. After that, he was demoted to the king of Lingling and now lives in Moling. Ling Shuang opened her mouth and told the truth what she knew.
After Sima asked, his anxiety eased slightly.
Throughout the ages, the king of the dead country has been assassinated for no reason before the new king ascends the throne. The reason why he was anxious was also because he was worried that something had happened to the imperial father.
Liu Yu did not kill the emperor of the previous dynasty after he ascended the throne, it may be that he had scruples about the old ministers of the previous dynasty, or he may want to leave a good reputation.
But if you don't kill at this time, it doesn't mean that there will be no measures in the future. Moling is very close to Jiankang, and placing the imperial father Sima Dewen here is under close care, and his life and death are all in the thoughts of others.
Originally, he came here to gather with joy, but he was first embarrassed, and then he was poured with bad luck, and when Sima Wenzhi's mood eased slightly, Ling Shuang felt wronged and silently retreated.
Sima Wenzhi saw her leave on the sidelines, and he had the intention to apologize but had no intention of keeping her, and let her go.
......
After Huang Xiao and the others left, Tianyunzi went to Taiqing Peak. Before noon, Taiqingzong sent someone to his residence to invite him, inviting him to go to Tianmingzi's residence at his convenience and discuss important matters.
"Is the move to Qingcheng Mountain going well?" After taking a seat, Tian Mingzi opened his mouth first.
"The previous planning was all on paper, and when I actually did it, I found that many details had not been perfected before. But fortunately, this matter is only a twist and turn, and there are no surprises at present. Tianyunzi replied with emotion.
"Senior brother called me here, what is it for?" After sighing, he changed to Tianyunzi to ask. If it weren't for something important, Tian Mingzi wouldn't have invited him here.
"There is nothing important, after the senior brother went to Qingcheng Mountain, the two of us will get together less and leave more, and I invite you to come just to catch up on the old days. When Tian Mingzi replied, he took the teapot and refilled the tea on the opposite side to seventy.
"Senior brother is fine, but I am fine. Seeing that Tian Mingzi didn't speak, Tian Yunzi opened his mouth, and the words he said were throwing stones and asking for directions.
"What's the matter?" Sure enough, Tian Mingzi immediately asked.
