Chapter 171 Qingru
When he left the Qianqing Palace, He Shen explained to him the meaning of the yellow coat.
The yellow coat is bright yellow, that is, light yellow, which is the color of the emperor, and the general princes and palace concubines can only wear golden yellow (dark yellow), and the common people are only allowed to wear apricot yellow (red yellow) at most. Bright yellow is the most noble, except for the emperor, only the close attendants of the Son of Heaven who serve him are authorized to decorate bright yellow, and these imperial guards or ministers are all made of bright yellow silk or yarn (winter silk and summer yarn), without patterns and colored sleeves.
The yellow coats of these people are called "post horse coats", and the Manchurian language is called "bald mountain coats", and those who are discharged from their posts need to be returned and can no longer be worn. The royal yellow vest is different, it can be worn on all important occasions, and if necessary, it can be seen by the official and the three poles, so as to facilitate action, and those who get the royal yellow vest are regarded as supreme glory and holiness.
"If the emperor hadn't remembered that you had made meritorious contributions to Yangzhou, I'm afraid he wouldn't have rewarded him like this. He Shen said.
As he was talking, Li Yuantong hurriedly ran over.
"Mo Remnant, congratulations, I heard that the emperor gave you a yellow coat, this is a great thing that the Holy Grace has taken care of, Brother Li invited you to have fun tonight, where do you live now?"
"Temporary stay at the inn. Mo replied.
"Okay, wait for me, see you or leave. After Li Yuantong finished speaking, he smiled and left.
"You go back first, the old man will go to the household department to notify the household department to open an account for Xu Suniang and Lu's mother and son, and send them to the post house after it is done. He Shen said.
"Thank you, sir. ”
Mo Yan returned to the post house, and Na Lahong was surprised when he saw the yellow coat given by Qianlong, and hurriedly asked what was going on.
"This is because of the meritorious reward for escorting in Yangzhou two years ago. Mo Yan didn't say anything else.
"In the past, if anyone in the court was rewarded with a yellow coat, he had to burn incense and worship at home. ”
Mo Yan smiled and said, "Lord Heshen is already handling the matter of opening an account for deregistration, and said that he will send someone to send the certification documents to the post house after it is done." ”
"Alas, if only there had been this way, Madame would not have been working hard with the old man in the Ryukyus for so many years. Na Lahong sighed.
He Shen was really happy, and at dusk he sent someone to send an envelope, and the whole family was very excited with the certificate of opening an account for the elimination of nationality, and the Lu family cried with joy on the side, Shou Nan Fu Nan was also overjoyed, and Na Lahong was even more full of mixed feelings.
"Mo Yan, these silver tickets are useless, you can take them back. "Narahon wants to return it to Mo Remnant.
"You can keep this bit of silver, after all, you still have to buy land and buy a house in the capital, and there are a lot of places that cost money. ”
"How good is that. Na Rahong said with a blushing face.
"It doesn't matter, it's all robbed anyway, it's not enough. ”
"What?" said Narahon, stunned.
Mo Yan smiled and said, "Don't worry, there is a way to take it." ”
Nara Foramo stepped aside and asked him quietly, "Uncle Tang, do you really have any martial arts secrets?"
Mo Yan shook his head: "Where are there any martial arts secrets, it's just that Master Jin Danzi taught me a set of exercises plus some adventures." ”
Nalafu blushed and snorted: "You are a cousin, Fu Nan is a junior, you can say anything, can you teach me this set of exercises?"
Mo Yu pondered and said: "It's no problem to teach you, but practicing this set of 'Shrinking the Fetus and Dispersing Qigong' is extremely risky, and it is easy to go mad and cause paralysis or loss of mind." Back then, when I was about to go crazy at the end of my practice, it happened that the sixth layer of Xuantian Gong that Wen Ruo needed hit the Jizhong acupoint, and it took three days to come back to life after passing out, otherwise I might have collapsed in bed. You and Shou Nan are the people of the Xu family who inherit the incense, and you must not take this risk. ”
"But my martial arts are too weak now, and I have no other way to improve my skills, and it will be over when I meet a master like Oni Duojian again. Nalafu said in embarrassment.
"In this way, I'll give you some pills that can increase your internal strength and speed up the progress of cultivating 'Xuantian Gong', and we'll see how it progresses after a while. ”
"Uncle Xie Tang. Nalafu had no choice but to say.
Mo Yan gave him a few pills of the elixir refined by the Spirit Realm Demon Pill, among which the main pill of the Mu family surname was born, which would definitely be of great help to improve the progress of his cultivation.
"Uncle Tang, Ziyang Zhenren and Tianxu Zhenren, did you make them look like now?"
"That's right," Mo Yan nodded and admitted, "In order to get the 'Shrinking Fetal Scattering Qigong', the Tianxu real person wore the Jin Danzi through the pipa bone and locked it in the forbidden stone cave of Jiugong Mountain for thirty years. ”
"I see. Nalafo suddenly realized.
Li Yuantong came to the post house on time and dragged Mo Yan out of the door and got into the carriage.
"Brother Li, where are we going?"
"Don't ask, I'll open your eyes. Li Yuantong pretended to be mysterious.
Most of the Ji courtyards in the capital are distributed in the inner city, most of them are official Ji of higher grade, many officials linger here and do not think about it, those officials and rich people like to ask the Qinglou women to accompany the wine, play music and sing small songs when they drink and feast.
The carriage stopped in the Goolan Hutong, and when I got off the car, I saw that there were Qinglou women and artists holding the railing at the mouth of the alley to sing, and the people inside were very lively.
"In the capital, the Qinglou here is the most famous, here'Goulan' is the popular saying of the Ji Academy, today I want to introduce you to the smash hit Qingyin Xiaoban head card, you wait and see. Li Yuantong said with great interest.
"Brother Li, the younger brother is not used to the fireworks flowing alley, so let's go drink elsewhere. ”
"Hey, don't underestimate such fireworks women, they are not only good at piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, poetry and poetry, but also young and beautiful, beautiful and beautiful, haven't you heard of the phrase 'ancient chivalrous women out of the dust', to tell you, there are still times when the saint goes out of the palace to have fun here. ”
As he spoke, he came to a small building with ornate decorations, on which the plaque reads "Qingyin Small Class".
"Yo, it turns out that Master Li is here, please, this little brother is very raw, is it the first time to come?" an old bustard with a lot of temperament greeted him warmly.
"This is my brother, who brought him to the world. Li Yuantong laughed and dragged Mo Yan in.
The two came to a fragrant boudoir with a faint smell of fat powder, calligraphy and paintings hung on the walls, the four treasures of the study room on the table, and a maid serving fragrant tea, and they couldn't tell that this was actually a green building. Mo Yan sat on the chair and was a little uneasy, he had strayed into the Ji Courtyard of Phoenix City when he killed the Six-Fingered Gu Po, but the quiet and elegant of this house was very different from the black smoke and miasma there.
Behind a beaded curtain is the inner room, and after a while, I vaguely saw a woman in green clothes sitting behind the curtain, with a guqin in front of her, and said: "Lord Li said that it is good to hear a song like playing a song 'Yuqiao Q&A'?"
"This is 'Nanban', all of them are beauties from Jiangnan, and they are both beautiful and artistic. Li Yuantong whispered.
At this time, Qingru said: "The rise and fall of ancient and modern times are like a backhand, and the green mountains and green waters are solid." Thousands of years of gains and losses, just pay for the fisherman's words. Before the words fell, the piano sounded.
The elegant overtones suddenly seem to bring people into the deep mountains shrouded in mist, the water and clouds are covered, the smoke and waves are haohan, the mountains are towering, the water is oceanic, the axe is cut Dingding, the sound of the oars is nai, and the dialogue between the fishing woods is faintly under the fingers.
Mo Yan had never heard such elegant music, and his heart had entered that distant artistic conception.
With the clear ten fingers of the chanting and rubbing, rolling and splashing thorns and three bullets, the mountains are majestic, and the sound of the woodcutter's axe is like being there, depicting the unrestrained and chic feelings of the hermits in the mountains, which makes people yearn for infinitely.
At the end of the song, Mo Yan was still immersed in reverie, and muttered: "I seem to have seen the nineteen peaks of Cangshan Mountain, the fisherman of Erhai Lake rocking the oars, the woodcutter in the Yuju Mountain chopping wood, the hunter driving the eagle, and the hermit chanting."
"This little brother is really a person in love, and he has an artistic conception when he hears the music, and he is as clear as a bosom friend. The bead curtain was lifted, and a handsome woman walked out and bowed her knees slightly and said a blessing.
Mo Yan hurriedly stood up with a red face and returned the salute, causing Li Yuantong to snicker.
"Even if he is a friend of Brother Li, and there is no need to be formal, it seems that Brother Li is not from the capital. Qingru smiled slightly.
"My name is Mo Remnant, a native of Dali, Yunnan. ”
"Brother Mo can read the rhythm?"
Mo Yan shook his head: "I don't know." ”
"There is a Zen master in Dali who is responsible for poetry, calligraphy and painting, have you ever heard of it?" Qingru saw that he was restrained, so he changed the topic empathetically.
"The old monk in charge of Gantong Temple, this knows, my family lives in Mojiayi, not far from the temple. ”
Qingru smiled faintly and asked, "Brother Li and Little Brother Mo are willing to have a banquet with Qingru?"
"Of course, Brother Mo, you don't know yet, Miss Qingru is the top brand here, how many dignitaries want to drink with her but can't. Li Yuantong explained.
Mo Yan nodded.
Qingru immediately ordered the maid to ask for a table of good wine and food, and it was delivered in a short time, and the three of them pushed the cup and chatted happily.
During the banquet, when talking about the customs and customs of western Yunnan and the old monk in Gantong Temple, Mo Yan asked Qingru if he could know the dying poem.
"What 'deathbed', Qingru has never heard of. ”
So Mo Yan told the story of when he was a Zen master on his deathbed, and he passed away with a handwritten verse.
"The sky is broken, the earth is broken, if you think you are responsible, you will miss it, and who dares to sit if your tongue is broken. He read it to Qingru.
"What a strange poem. Li Yuantong said.
"Yes, for more than 100 years, no one has been able to understand this verse. Mo Yan explained.
"The western part of Yunnan is far away, and if the Central Plains scholars go there, it will definitely be solved. Li Yuantong said.
"There have been a lot of talented people from the Central Plains, and even the scholars of the Hanlin Academy have gone to several places, but they still have no agreement, and they have never been able to crack it. ”
At this time, Qingru laughed "giggled" and said: "These literati who are full of poetry and books are not as good as me as a girl in a green building." ”
"Miss Qingru means that you can unravel this dying poem that serves as an old monk?" Mo Yan wondered.
"The little woman can solve it. Qingru replied.
