Becoming a Saint by Leisure Reading - Chapter 285

[Chapter 281 Pingyang, is she pretty?]
Coming out of the soldier symbol space, Chen Luo sorted out his next thoughts a little bit.
First order Yang Nanzhong to pull up Bai Lingwei’s airs, and then think about how to get murderous on the battlefield.
Krypton gold, just thinking about it makes Chen Luo a headache.
When the soldier talismans of the heroes come out, you can’t choose one for free!
Dog plan, secretly change!
Feeling that the white horse in his hand flew away…
Chen Luo let out a long breath, and the training of tiger and leopard riders must be stepped up, after all, it will fall on them to earn their murderous aura on the battlefield.
However, before that, the port of Le Ya City should be settled first.
People’s livelihood in cities waits for no one, and the construction of the port will take time, which is a major event.
As for the safety of shipping before the navy comes out, it is really not good, so I invite a few veteran scholars to work hard and run a few times with the ship.
Well, the plan works!
Now that the decision has been made, it is better to hit the sun than to choose a date. Chen Luo decided to set off for Leya City immediately.
…
“Master Hou, this Leya city was originally the Tangmu land given to Princess Qingping by Emperor Lin when he was in power.” Above the flying clouds, an official in his 30s and 40s introduced to Chen Luo. His name is Yang Qianli, and he is an official of the Political Affairs Hall. Because he is from Leya City, he was sent by Qin Dangguo to be a guide for Chen Luo.
“Princess Qingping? But that Princess Yanqiu?” Xiang Jixuan, who was beside Chen Luo, asked.
This time when he came to Leya, Yun Siyao did not accompany him. Firstly, Leya and Dongcang were not far away, and secondly, Yun Siyao had other missions.
Speaking of which, it is still related to Dongcang City. Previously, Dongcang City was the territory of Daxuan, and the luck official technique was still applicable. However, after Chen Luo took office, Dongcang City officially became a sacred place, and Daxuan’s government decree was blocked here. Therefore, except for the city lord Chen Luo, other officials were unable to use official skills. Yun Siyao has been arranging the luck formation during this time, the purpose is to connect Dongcang and Daxuan, so that Dongcang officials can also use official skills. It is currently being arranged to a critical juncture, so I can’t leave for the time being.
As for Luo Hongnu, who was always with Chen Luo when he went out, he was playing “The Son-in-Law” continuously, but he was not able to accompany him.
So this time, Chen Luo was accompanied by Xiang Jixuan, a great Confucianist in many battles, Yang Qianli, an official of Zhengshitang, and several master builders.
An unremarkable official business trip!
Suddenly, there were too many men around him, which made Chen Luo feel a little uncomfortable.
“Princess Yanqiu?” Chen Luo was taken aback. If it was Princess Qingping, he hadn’t remembered it yet, but when it came to Princess Yanqiu, he remembered it.
This is also a royal anecdote widely spread among the people.
After all, this Princess Yanqiu should be regarded as Emperor Lin’s eldest sister-in-law, and it was Guangzong who was in power when Emperor Lin entered the palace as his queen. And Princess Yanqiu is Guangzong’s elder sister.
This Princess Yanqiu has a kind heart and is deeply loved by the palace. During a hunting trip, a general shot a wild goose. The wild goose was injured but survived. The princess felt pity for the wild goose, so she took the wild goose back from the general and took good care of it. Later, the geese recovered and flew with vertical wings.
Originally, the matter should have ended here, but a few years later, a demon clan came to propose marriage, intending to marry Princess Yanqiu as his wife. It turned out that the wild goose had awakened the blood of the phoenix bird and was established as the young master of the wild goose clan. After the two get married, in order to relieve Princess Qingping’s lovesickness, Young Master Hongyan often turns into a huge swan goose, carrying Princess Qingping back and forth between Daxuan and Yaoyu, so that the princess can reunite with her family. There are poems to prove it–
swan geese don’t know suffering when they go back and forth, and they only wait for leisure when they flutter their wings for thousands of miles. The beauty in the cloud laughed gradually, half distressed and half sweet.
However, the good times didn’t last long, the Hongyan clan suffered a catastrophe due to the civil war among the demon clan. The young master Hongyan returned to resist, but was besieged and killed by the Pengniao clan. Young Master Hongyan knew that Daxuan didn’t want to get involved, nor did he want to embarrass Princess Qingping, so he didn’t enter Daxuan, flew around the sea, and finally fell to his death in Leya City.
Princess Qingping chased her all the way, from the Demon Realm to Leya City. After seeing the body of the young master Hongyan, her sorrowful voice went straight to the sky, and she was exhausted, and finally died of crying blood!
Guangzong ordered people to bury Princess Qingping and Young Master Hongyan together, and build an altar to sacrifice, which is called Yanqiu by the world.
“Master Hou doesn’t know something.” Yang Qianli said, “Leya City was not originally called Leya City, but Changle City. After Emperor Lin ascended the throne, he felt the sorrow of Princess Qingping, thinking that love is boundless and joy has no limits. Therefore, the name was changed to Leya City.”
“Princess Qingping once gave birth to a daughter, who was raised by Emperor Guangzong in Zhongjing. The princess’s life experience is also known to the world, and when she became an adult, she went north to Leya and inherited Leya City.”
“Princess Roufu felt the love of Guangzong’s upbringing, and vowed that Leya City will always be the fiefdom of the Ye family. !”
“The current owner of Leya City is the lineage of Princess Roufu, whose title is Pingyang.”
Several people were talking, and they had already arrived at Leya City. At this time, Leya City is worthy of being the most prosperous city in the north, and it is still full of people and very lively.
Although Dongcang City is now on the right track, compared with Leya City, it is still insignificant, and it is far worse.
…
Entering Leya City, Yang Qianli arranged for Chen Luo and Xiang Jixuan to stay, and he went to the City Lord’s Mansion to deliver invitations, but after a long time, he ran back with a helpless face.
“Master Hou, we didn’t come at the right time!”
“What’s wrong?”
Yang Qianli sighed, “Two days later will be the anniversary of the death of Princess Qingping and Young Master Hongyan. Princess Pingyang has gone out of the city to worship.”
“Oh, then let’s just wait, stay for a day, and talk about it tomorrow.”
Yang Wanli shook his head and said, “This year is the tenth anniversary of death, so Princess Pingyang will keep her coffin for a month. No outsiders will be seen during the period!”
Xiang Jixuan Suddenly stood up: “One month? That’s not okay! Before I set off, Mr. Qin specifically instructed that the shipment will start in half a month at the latest.” Then, he looked at another master craftsman and asked, “Master Deng, a How long do you need for the simple wharf?”
Then Master Deng pondered for a moment, and said: “Leya City also has a harbor wharf, if it’s just a simple repair and enough manpower is recruited, ten days will be enough.”
Xiang Jixuan looked at Chen Luo: “Master Hou, we must reach an agreement with Princess Pingyang as soon as possible!”
Chen Luo raised his eyebrows.
I know, the problem is that she is sweeping the grave, how can I let her see me?
Grave dance?
Yang Qianli slapped his thigh suddenly: “Hey, why did I forget!”
Immediately, Yang Qianli looked strange, and said: “The literati and poets have always come to Yanqiu, and they love to pay homage to Yanqiu.”
“If Lord Hou can write poems handed down from generation to generation , Princess Pingyang will definitely make an exception to meet you!”
“After all, Princess Roufu is from the same line, and loves poetry the most.”
Chen Luo nodded slightly.
I can write poetry!
Turning in my mind, a poem has already emerged in my mind.
……
Yanqiu is a hundred miles east of Leya City. Princess Qingping once joked that if she could also transform into a wild goose, she would not have to bear the burden of the young master Hongyan, but would fly together. This saying was remembered by Emperor Guangzong. When the altar was later built, a stone carving of wild geese flying together was specially left on it.
The story of Princess Yanqiu has been widely circulated among the people, so Leya City specially set up a memorial tablet ten miles away from Yanqiu for everyone to pay tribute to. Within ten miles of Yanqiu is the mausoleum of Princess Qingping and Young Master Hongyan, and no one is allowed to enter without permission.
At this time, on the Yanqiu, the white flags were like a forest, and the city guards stood upright. In front of the altar built by the pair of flying geese, a slender, plain woman in filial piety knelt down piously on the ground.
A female official came up quietly, knelt beside the woman, and whispered: “Princess, there is a message from the city lord’s mansion that the city lord of Dongcang City, Chen Luo, is begging to see you!”
“Chen Luo?” , “What is he here for?” The
female officer nodded: “I don’t know yet, does the princess want to see him?”
Pingyang hesitated, looked up at the stone sculpture on the altar, sighed again, and shook his head slightly: “I’ll see you after the sacrificial ceremony is over. You send a message back, I’m very entertaining, don’t neglect!” The
female official nodded: “Yes!” While the
two were talking, the wings of the stone sculpture of double geese on the altar suddenly vibrated!
…
Ten miles away, by the hanging monument.
Many literati and refined scholars gathered again, Chen Luo frowned slightly, and asked Yang Qianli: “Are there usually so many people here?”
Yang Qianli shook his head: “It’s the anniversary of Princess Qingping’s death, I guess these people are here to Write a good tribute to attract the attention of Princess Pingyang!”
As he said that, Yang Qianli smiled narrowly: “After all, there was a good talk about getting into the Lord’s Mansion of Zhuo City by virtue of the tribute. You can work hard, Lord Hou, and maybe Dongcang City will be with you.” Leya City has been practiced, so there is no need to divide you and me.”
Xiang Jixuan snorted coldly: “Hou Ye is a dignified husband, a son of a sage, how can he get married?”
Yang Qianli hurriedly cupped his hands: “Your humble duty, Hou Ye forgive me! ”
Chen Luo waved his hand: “Don’t care, don’t care, but… Qianli, I want to ask you a serious question.”
“Ah? Please tell me, Lord Hou!”
“Princess Pingyang, is she beautiful?”
Yang Qianli: Lord Hou, I understand what you mean, but I don’t seem to understand completely.
Xiang Jixuan: What? What are you planning?
Chen Luo laughed: “It’s okay, it’s okay, just ask casually, just ask casually!”
…
“The wild geese fly far away and wander north and south, and autumn comes after Qingming returns.”
“If a pair is missing a bird, the other will sing and mourn.”
In front of the hanging monument, a Confucian scholar wrote his poems, and everyone showed surprise.
“Brother Wang is so talented! This poem is really heartbreaking!”
“Not bad, I like the last sentence the most. The other one is called Ai! What a bleak picture, this sentence is quite similar to Chen Wuhou’s Gu Teng” The wind of the tree and the crow!”
“Exactly, look at the previous sentence ‘If both are missing a bird’, it seems vulgar, but it outlines a picture that goes straight to the heart with a plain tone, and there is a hint of reservation. Bai, this reminds me of Marquis Chen Wu’s ‘The creek is slanted, the mountain is covered, and people go’!”
“Yes, brother Wang’s talent, this poem alone is not inferior to Marquis Chen Wu. Princess Pingyang must be heartbroken! Hearing the
compliments from the crowd, that brother Wang laughed heartily and cupped his hands: “How dare you compare to Chen Wuhou
? , you can see Li Qinglian and Su Poxian, who is only 80 miles away, and it’s only a little bit worse, a little bit worse!”
Everyone seemed angry: “Brother Wang is too modest! Too modest!”
At this moment , a gentle voice sounded: “That…excuse me, are the words of tribute written directly on this stone tablet?”
Everyone turned their heads, and saw a young man in white fur, followed by two middle-aged men, looking It looks like a rich young master traveling with two housekeepers.
That brother Wang stepped forward and cupped his hands and said: “My dear friend, I wrote on this stone tablet. But I just wrote a poem, and the ink is still wet. You can wait a moment.” The
group of people sighed again . : “Brother Wang is a good man, I am worried that the light of his poems will cover the poems of this young master, so I specially remind you.”
“Yes, I will write it right after Brother Wang, and it will inevitably be compared by others. I am afraid it will damage the literary heart!”
“Young master, please wait a moment!”
Chen Luo naturally heard what everyone said, and said with a faint smile : “No, I’m in a hurry!”
After finishing speaking, he walked directly to the hanging monument and looked around. There was a large blank space next to Brother Wang’s poems, which was just right for writing.
Chen Luo took out the pen and ink from the storage order and began to write. At this time, the group of scholars were also in an uproar.
“He, he actually wrote next to Brother Wang’s poems, he is so arrogant!”
“Now, if you don’t want to be compared, you will be compared!”
“Hey, young man, you are a top iron, why bother?”
“Look at him What kind of poems can you write!”
“If it’s really too bad, I’ll wash it off for him later.”
Hearing the whispered discussions from the crowd, Xiang Jixuan and Yang Qianli looked at each other, eyes filled with the look of watching a drama.
This looks better than “The Consort”!
Chen Luo took a deep breath, and wrote— ” Ask the
world, what is love?” Sons and daughters.” ” You should have a saying:” ”Thousands of miles of stratus clouds, thousands of mountains and evening snow, who is the only shadow to go to ! ” And, the mountain ghost secretly cries the wind and rain.” ”The sky is also jealous, and if you don’t believe in it, the hawks and swallows are all loess.” ”Through the ages and ages, to keep it for the poets, sing and drink wildly, visit Yanqiu!”
Suddenly, the scene was silent! That brother Wang’s face flushed instantly.
The other Confucian scholars seemed to be strangled, unable to speak.
“This… this…”
“Who the hell is this young master?”
Ten miles away, a geese honked, and two phantoms of geese flew straight into the sky.
A soft female voice came –
“I have met Wuhou in Pingyang. I am wearing a pickaxe, so I can’t meet you far away.”
“Please move to Wuhou and meet in front of Yanqiu.”
From Yuan Haowen’s “Moyu “Yanqiu Ci”, because there are allusions in the second half of the book, which do not match the background of this book, so it has been revised. Time is running short, although I met Pingze and explained the meaning clearly, but I am not very satisfied. I published “Huangtu” twice, and I will think about whether there is a more suitable word later when I have time… The
original version is as follows:
Ask the world, love Why? Directly teach life and death. Flying guests from all over the world, the old wings are cold and hot. Joy is fun, parting is bitter, and there are even more idiotic children. You should have something to say, thin clouds, thousands of mountains and snow at dusk, who will the shadow go to?
Hengfen Road, lonely year Xiaogu. The wild smoke is still flat. What’s wrong with calling back the soul, and the mountain ghosts secretly cry about the wind and rain. The sky is also jealous, and if you don’t believe in it, Yinger and swallows are all loess. For thousands of years, to keep it for the poets, sing and drink wildly, and visit Yanqiu.
