Chapter 46: Possessions and Rituals (1)
Ah Wei counted the contents of the boxes one by one, among which the number of bronze utensils was huge, there were as many as seven boxes, including cooking utensils, food utensils, wine vessels, pots, musical instruments (chimes, etc.), weapons, etc.
Ah Wei ordered people to bring ten empty boxes, selected a set of various bronzes, and filled three boxes. Meng Yi also understood after reading it that she was going to take the rest of the boat with her, and as for the rest, I don't know what she should do with it.
Ah Wei then counted the jade. Jade occupies the second place, there are five boxes, three of which are sacrificial Bi, Zhang, Amber, Cong, Gui, Huang, Ge, Gui, Qi, Yue, adze and other things, the other two boxes are jade flutes, hairpins, beads, pipes, Xuanji, pillar ornaments, various small accessories, animal accessories, shell ornaments, miscellaneous ornaments, necklaces, wrist ornaments, large group ornaments, jade musical instruments, and some jade containers.
Seeing this, Ah Wei smiled, and directly ordered someone to carry the two boxes of non-sacrificial jade to one of the three boxes of bronzes selected just now, so that she had five more boxes to salute.
Next is the jewel and jade decoration, there are a lot of them, and there are also two boxes, and Ah Wei took it directly with a wave of her hand. The last box is filled with all kinds of miscellaneous utensils, with pottery and bamboo ware, all of which can be called high-quality products, including musical instruments, pots, wine vessels, etc., Ah Wei is reluctant to give up, so this box is also left.
Ah Wei looked around, frowned and asked, "Why don't you see books, gold and silver, and silk silk?"
When Meng Yi heard this, he hurriedly cheered up and said: "Before the funeral, the steward of the Zhou Mansion said that the Duke of Zhou had ordered most of the books to be buried, and a small part was transferred to the Taishi Gong Collection. ”
Ah Wei had to nod when she heard this. Although she doesn't have the ability of her brother to never forget, she can sing the praises after reading the book three times, not only her own collection of books, but also the collection of historians are completely engraved in her mind, so the books are really useless to her.
Seeing this, Meng Yi said: "Because a close branch surnamed Ji came to preside over the funeral of Duke Zhou, the steward of the Zhou Mansion took charge and distributed the girl's gold and silverware, silk and other things to them as a thank you." There is a book left by the steward of your mansion before the funeral, and there is a list of things to be distributed, can the girl take a look?" said Meng Yi and took out another roll of bamboo slips.
Ah Wan took it, and still looked at ten lines. After reading the list, I couldn't help but twitch the corners of my mouth, the steward was really generous enough. Then he sighed, I was afraid that those close branches would not forgive me because of this. If it weren't for the pressure from Daqin's side, I was afraid that she wouldn't even be able to keep these fifteen boxes of things.
Sure enough, the wealth is moving! Ah Wei closed the bamboo slip and asked casually: "It's rare that they will disperse after dividing these up." ”
Meng Yi said: "It is also the steward of your mansion who is smart, and he handed these over to my Great Qin envoy early in the morning. ”
Ah Wei knew in her heart, so the close branch surnamed Ji didn't dare to come to trouble with the envoy of Daqin, and she was afraid that the list of things that would be missing from the list of bribes to the envoy of Daqin.
However, the person is not bad, he accepted a generous gift, and he didn't dare to swallow her things privately. It was Ah Wei who smiled and said, "In this way, I have to bother the commander Meng to thank the messenger for me." ”
Meng Yi arched his hand and said: "You don't have to be polite, that messenger is also from my Meng clan, Meng Chang." ”
Ah Wei also smiled, Meng Yi deserves to be the head of the inner servants, and the fat difference is the priority of his own family.
Ah Wei glanced at the seven large boxes of things left after being selected by herself, and arched her hand to Meng Yi: "I heard that Your Majesty's Northern Expedition is raising military salaries, grain and grass, Ah Wei is not talented, and I am willing to dedicate this remaining thing, together with more than 50 large ritual vessels, to Your Majesty, just asking for some small graces from Your Majesty." ”
Meng Yi knew that Ah Wei couldn't take these away, so he was not too surprised to listen to Ah Yao's words. He asked, "What does the girl want?" and I have made up my mind to convey it to Your Majesty on behalf of the girl. ”
Ah Wei and Meng Yi looked at each other and said, "I think the boat is not as good as the palace, so I ask Your Majesty's permission to allow me to live in a room alone." I beg Your Majesty to give me a guard who is proficient in martial arts, and the wealth is moving, and I can't trust the people on the ship after all. ”
When Meng Yi heard this, he breathed a sigh of relief. In fact, he was still afraid that the lion would open his mouth and make each other embarrassed, and he was confident that His Majesty would agree to such a trivial matter, so he said: "In this way, I will thank the girl for the righteousness of the northern soldiers." Rest assured, before leaving tomorrow, Your Majesty will come down. ”
Ah Wei nodded, and watched Meng Yi take the guards and carry the seven boxes of things back. When he looked back and saw the eight boxes of things he only had, he sighed for a while.
The Hehe Zhou Room has been in the country for 800 years, and in the end, she can use it and take it away, and all she can take away is these eight boxes!
After lunch, when Ah Wei was about to re-clean and store the eight large boxes of things, she saw a eunuch leading four attendants carrying boxes to listen to Yuxuan.
Ah Wei greeted her suspiciously. The eunuch was busy with Ah Wei, and said: "My Royal Highness heard that the girl is leaving tomorrow, and sent me to express my gratitude to the girl." And sent these two ceremonies, and asked the girl to smile. ”
After saying that, the attendant put these two large boxes in Tingyu Xuan, and then opened them one by one and personally introduced: "This box is for food, the upper layer is the imperial dim sum, the middle is suitable for storage corn cakes and the like, and the bottom is all kinds of dried fruits, His Royal Highness is worried about the inconvenience of eating on the girl's road, so he specially ordered the imperial kitchen to prepare it for the girl this morning." ”
When Ah Wan heard this, her heart was warm after all. A box of food, although it is not worth a few dollars, but this thought is really cleverly spent, fresh food, but also divided into what is not easy to store, easy to store. The sincerity in this is really moving.
Sure enough, in the matter of pleasing people, Hu Hai is really talented. It's no wonder that his emotional card made Zhao Zheng defenseless.
When the eunuch saw Ah Wei smiling and bowing her head, he immediately opened another box. When Ah Wei looked over, she found that it contained all kinds of medicinal herbs with vintages.
Ah Wan frowned: "Your Highness, what do you mean by this?"
The eunuch hurriedly arched his hand and said: "The girl doesn't know, Your Highness heard that the people who went to sea with Xu Fu last time, although a large part of them died from the wind and waves at sea, there are still many people who died of wind and cold, and there is no cure. It is because His Royal Highness's special medical bureau has prepared all kinds of medicinal materials for the girl, and there are many wind and cold and tonic ones. His Royal Highness heard that the girl still had to keep filial piety, so he ordered the medical bureau to prepare a special medicinal diet for the girl, saying that the girl could mix and take it on her own while on the ship. ”
This gift is really heartfelt, and Ah Wei can't help but sigh. This Hu Hai, how good would it be if it wasn't Zhao Zheng's son?
Seeing that the eunuch seemed to be waiting for her reply, Ah Wan hurriedly arched her hand and said: "The ritual sent by His Highness is very good for my heart, and I also understand His Highness's intentions." In this case, I would like to ask you to go back and thank Your Highness for me, saying that I am very satisfied with the ceremony he has sent. ”
