Chapter 10 Taimiao Sacrifice

In the afternoon, the director of the gallery called a meeting and said that there were only seven days before the arrival of the envoy of Chen Guo, and if he could not draw a moving painting within seven days, he would have to draw the heads of all the artists in the gallery.

This is no longer a bounty, it is a threat of life. Chu Yun originally only used three points of thought, but now he had to use ten points. Don't say what King Qi has in mind, the key is to save his life first.

Last night, she and Xianwei also talked about the powder of a certain flower and plant that he said that day, Xianwei only heard about it occasionally, but he really didn't know what the specific flower was and where to find it, so she only asked her if possible, she could go to Penglai and ask about the land of Longqu, or ask his best friend.

The best friend of Longqu Land naturally refers to Yan Sha, with his erudition, the possibility of knowing is not impossible, but asking to be in front of him, how can she be embarrassed?

Ignoring him and talking to others, he can't help but lose this face. Although she was reluctant, she had to do it, especially when she dreamed of him a few nights ago, which made her feel very angry, or she really should go to see him and sort out the matter between the two, which is better than such a cold war.

After grinding in the gallery for a while, he told the principal to take leave, saying that he wanted to find a way to paint. The director naturally agreed, and thanked her a lot, and gave her a few top hats, saying that she was the most powerful painter among contemporary young people, and the future of the gallery depended on her. Chu Yun couldn't cry or laugh, it seemed that the old man was forced to have no choice, and he had caught someone to say good things to whom.

She came out of the gallery and was about to leave the palace, but happened to meet His Royal Highness the Crown Prince who was about to leave the palace in front of the palace gate.

Seeing that the prince was going to pay homage, Chu Yun knelt down and saluted, but he didn't expect this prince to remember her, and took her out of the dense palace people who were kneeling at a glance.

"Painter Chu, is this going out of the palace?" The seat lifted a corner, revealing a smiling face, and the voice was gentle and gentle, which made people listen to it very comfortably.

Chu Yun didn't expect that this was talking to herself for a while, and only realized that a palace maid next to her tugged on her skirt. Hurriedly kowtowed. "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, the daughter is about to leave the palace. ”

"Where are you going, this palace will send you there. ”

Chu Yun almost said "ah", it seems that she is not familiar with His Royal Highness the Prince. How could he take such care of her, and he looked like he had ulterior motives for her. If she was in the past, she would definitely think that His Royal Highness had taken a fancy to her differently, but now she is no longer a simple girl, and she will only wonder if he has another purpose.

There is no such thing as a free lunch. No one will be nice to you either. She smiled, "Thank you, Your Highness, Your Majesty is not the same as Your Highness." ”

The prince smiled, his smile was so kind, like a touch of warm sun shining into the world, "That Chu painter, let's talk about it later." ”

Such a warm smile, the blue sky and white day actually made Chu Yun shiver, she touched her face, and said secretly in her heart. Could it be that she was too nervous, how could such a gentle and elegant prince be terrible?

The prince's carriage passed, and the palace people who knelt on the ground also got up, and I don't know how many people cast envious eyes on Chu Yun, and the palace maid who dragged her clothes just now smiled and said: "Sister Chu, I am from Lingxiangyuan, if my sister is soaring, don't forget me." ”

Chu Yun smiled back, she didn't have the time to pull them here, so she hurriedly left the palace and got into the carriage and left.

The last time I saw Yan Sha, he said that he was taken out of the palace by the queen. I don't know where it is now, but let's go to the Tranquility Temple first.

The Tranquility Courtyard is a special courtyard built by the King of Qi outside the palace, and it is said that it is another courtyard but few people come to live, and only occasionally lock up some princes and nobles who have committed crimes. There are no officers and soldiers to guard it, and you can come and go at any time, but if you think it's free, you're wrong. Because no matter what you do, it is very likely that you will report to the king at the first time.

Chu Yun stood far away from the courtyard gate, hesitating how to get over, her spell was forbidden. It's not so easy to use invisibility.

When he was wandering nearby, someone behind him suddenly shouted, "What?

Chu Yun turned around, and there was a man in brocade standing not far away, with a faint smile on his face, Chu Yun was stunned for a moment, and then remembered that she should have seen this person.

"Qi Hu Wei ......" called out.

Qi Hu smiled like a flower, "I didn't expect you to remember me, since you remember me, why don't you remember Yan Sha?"

Chu Yun was puzzled, "What did you say?"

"Yan Xu, don't you really remember him? In Furong Town, the land temple, don't you have any impression at all?"

She remembered Furong Town, and she also remembered the Land Temple, but Yan Sha ...... Did he appear in the Land Temple? The memory she knew him was only in the Tianqing Palace, could she have seen him before that?

Qi Huwei reached out and touched the top of her head, he sealed her memory, but it was obviously opened, but why can't he remember only the part about Yan Xu?

Yan Sha didn't let him unlock her sealed memory, but the two of them are now uncomfortable for others to look at, of course, the most important thing is that Yan Sha's kid is uncomfortable, and he doesn't let him feel comfortable. For the sake of now, let's leave their problems to themselves.

Stretched out his palm and patted her on the back of the head, Chu Yun let out a painful sigh, and then slowly that little memory came back to her mind, she met him in front of the gate of the Land Temple, and he said that he wanted to stay in the temple and take care of her food. The food he cooked was delicious, and he cooked it for her every day, and if there was no hatred, those days would have been the best. But she was anxious for revenge, she ruined her body, practiced and went crazy, and it was he who saved her.

That night in his room, he hugged her covered in blood, screaming loudly, she could feel his sadness, a clear tear dropped on the back of her hand, and also dripped into her heart. She always thought that they were strangers and that they had nothing to do with each other, but at that moment, she deeply felt that she was already in her heart.

She closed her eyes that night, and as she took her last breath, she heard him talk to Qi Huwei, erasing the memories of her and keeping her from thinking of revenge. What kind of intention did he have in mind to give such an order at that time?

As if he was blocked by something, Chu Yun took a breath, "Where is he?"

At this time, eighty percent of them are used as sacrificial cattle and sheep for slaughter in the Taimiao. ”

"What do you mean?"

It means that if you don't go, I'm afraid he will be eaten alive by life. ”

This was too serious, Chu Yun didn't think much about it, and immediately ordered the coachman to go to the Taimiao, could it be that Yan Xu offended King Qi and was going to be killed?

Qi Hu looked at her back, smiling with treacherous intentions, he sent people over, and it was up to Yan Yan to see if the two could reconcile.

Since ancient times, Taimiao is a temple of various countries to worship their ancestors, and it is generally set up in the east of the palace because in ancient times, the east was respected. The Taimiao in every country is almost the same, grand and solemn, but compared to the Taimiao in the Chu State, it is more like it is piled up with big stones.

Coming down from the carriage, I saw the temple gate from a distance, where there were rows of guards, and it was clear that the king had arrived.

The emperor is not everyone can enter the temple after death, only the kind of emperor who has great merit can be awarded the temple number after death, and then enter the temple for future generations to worship.

With Chu Yun as a painter, it was impossible to enter the Taimiao, she jumped out of the carriage and suddenly regretted her recklessness. What did she do here? With her identity, it was impossible to save him, let alone Yan Sha needed her to save him? If he wanted to leave, who would be able to stop him?

I thought I had exercised very calmly, but it turned out that I would be so impulsive for him.

turned around and was about to leave, but saw a carriage coming from afar, the car stopped, and from above walked a noble prince, who was His Royal Highness the Crown Prince.

He saw Chu Yun at a glance, "Master Chu, it turns out that you are on the same road as the main palace, since you are here, why don't you go in?"

Chu Yun smiled humbly, "I was just passing by, and I wanted to see what the Taimiao Temple was like." ”

"That's right, Hongu took you in. ”

The crown prince ordered, which was second only to the holy decree, Chu Yun could only follow up hard, and secretly said in her heart, she was a painting

The ceiling and pillars are all pasted with red gold flowers, which are finely made and luxuriously decorated. There are 15 halls on both sides of the main hall, the east side hall is dedicated to the meritorious royal family gods of the past dynasties, and the west side hall is dedicated to the gods of meritorious heroes with different surnames. The nave and the apse after the main hall are all the nine halls of the yellow glazed tile hall top, the nave is called the sleeping hall, and the apse is called the temple. In addition, there are buildings such as the god kitchen, the god storehouse, the slaughtering pavilion, and the management of the livestock house.

In the main hall, the king and queen of Qi were praying for blessings, kneeling behind them Yan Sha, he was dressed in red, no matter where he stood, the first thing people saw was always him.

The corners of his mouth smiled slightly, and he looked at the king and queen of Qi who were kneeling, and it seemed that there was no intention of being beheaded.

Chu Yun sighed slightly, blaming her for caring about it, but she didn't hear that Qi Huwei was lying to her. Does she really care about him?

Or sensing her presence, Yan Xu suddenly turned his head and looked at her, he smiled at her slightly, and there was a faint hint of warmth in his smile, this smile was different from the prince's smile, although it was also a warm smile,

She was stunned, and the prince had already stepped closer, knelt beside Yan Sha, and smiled lightly at him: "Fourth brother, you are also here, it seems that my father has given you a grounding order." ”

"Sacrificing ancestors, since I am a member of the royal family, I should also do my part. ”

"What Brother Wang said is very true. Although there was a smile on his face, his expression was obviously a little dark.

"Why is His Royal Highness the Crown Prince late?"

"Something happened on the way. He replied lightly, and said no more. The two brothers are not close in the first place, and they just say a word or two about affection, and it is easy to be disgusting if they talk too much.

After King Qi finished bowing, he stood up, twisted a stick of incense and handed it to the prince, "Hui'er, you can also put on a stick of incense." ”

"Yes, Father. Qi Yunhui respectfully took it and knelt in front of the Buddha hall.

In the country of Qi, except for the queen and the crown prince, others did not even have the qualifications to incense, so they could only kneel far away and watch the three main masters of the main palace perform there.

Chu Yun couldn't enter the main hall, she could only kneel outside, she looked at the back of the Qi royal family inside from a distance, and there was an inexplicable sourness in her heart. If the Chu State is not destroyed, she should also worship her ancestors together with her parents in the Taimiao Temple of the Chu State. To be continued.
