Chapter 61: Long Connection
The Qingyang Altar of the Qingyang Sect was originally in Qinzhou, and since the situation in Xijing was unstable, Tang Zhou left the Qingyang Altar in Qinzhou and went to the Baiyang Altar located at the junction of Jingzhou and Shuzhou, so the White Emperor City replaced the original Qingyang Altar and became the entire Qingyang Sect's Altar.
The location of the White Emperor City is dangerous, surrounded by water on three sides, one side of the mountain, easy to defend and difficult to attack, when the Gongsun clan occupied Shu as the king, entered the main place, there is a white crane well in the city, there is often white gas gushing out in the well, just like the white dragon, the Gongsun clan will take this number as "the White Emperor", and this city will be renamed the White Emperor City.
The highest place in the White Emperor City is Yong'an Mountain, where you can easily overlook the situation outside the city, which is very suitable for supervising the battle command, the famous ancestor of Shu died of illness here, leaving the eternal story of the White Emperor City to support the orphan. Today, Yong'an Palace has become the general altar of Qingyang Sect and the residence of Tang Zhou. Now Tang Zhou is not in the White Emperor City, but the White Emperor City is business as usual, and in the eyes of outsiders, there is no difference inside and outside the White Emperor City.
Baidi City is in the territory of Yuzhou Mansion, located at the junction of Shuzhou and Jingzhou, there are two roads from Xijing to Shu to Baidi City, one road is to go directly to Yuzhou Mansion, and the other road is to go to Jinguan Mansion first, and then transfer to Yuzhou Mansion.
Now a large number of people from the Wudao Sect are gathered in the Jinguan Mansion, so after the palace officials passed through the Qinzhong Mansion, they decided to go to the Jinguan Mansion first, and then to the Yuzhou Mansion.
Jinguanfu is the capital of Shuzhou, also known as Furong City and Tianfu, and is also the most prosperous place in the entire southwest, comparable to Jinling Mansion in the south of the Yangtze River.
The Sansi Yamen and the Governor's Mansion Yamen of Shuzhou are also in the Jinguan Mansion, but since the fall of Shuzhou, these places have become the Yamen of the Northwest Great Zhou.
Speaking of the relationship between the Great Zhou Dynasty in the Northwest and the Wudao Sect, it is similar to the relationship between the Great Wei court and the Confucianism, the two are highly overlapping, but they are not completely consistent. Many people wear two hats, such as Song Fuchen, who is not only the king of the Wudao Sect, but also the commander of the Great Zhou court. Taiyun was not only the suzerain of the Wudao Sect, but also the emperor of the Great Zhou court. In the early days, when the earth master and the holy monarch had not yet broken up, the earth master also served in the court of the Great Zhou Dynasty, as the prince of the state, the national teacher, and the prime minister. After the departure of the earth master, the Zuo Venerable took over as the prime minister, the prime minister is different from the cabinet chief, the prime minister has the right to open the government and govern affairs, the upper can check and balance the king, and the lower can dominate the hundred officials, only in terms of power, it is roughly equivalent to the first assistant of the cabinet and the chief eunuch of the celebrant to seal the seal, that is, the addition of the external minister and the internal minister, is the real prime minister.
However, the palace officials did not serve in the Great Zhou court, including the Fan Tang Master and Elder Feng, so the group did not enter the Sansi Yamen and the Governor's Yamen, but came to a mansion set up by the Wudao Sect in the Jinguan Mansion.
As spring comes to an end and summer approaches, the rain is gradually increasing. There are a few plantain plants in the courtyard, and the rain falls on the banana leaves, and the sound is unique. Li Xuandu, who was treated as a distinguished guest, stood by the bed with his hands in his hands, looking at the plantain in the courtyard, stunned.
Then I saw the palace official holding a paper umbrella and walked into the courtyard, and after collecting the umbrella, he asked, "What do you want?"
Li Xuandu came back to his senses and said: "Back then, Wuhou crossed Lu in May, and he was deeply barren, and in the blink of an eye, it was almost May. ”
The palace official said: "The Jade Void Sword Fighting Sword is set for the Midyear Festival on the fifteenth day of July, and there are less than three months left before the battle is full." ”
Li Xuandu's expression was slightly heavy.
The palace official glanced at the sky and asked, "Yes."
Don't go out for a walk, there are also many good views in this Jinguan Mansion. ”
Li Xuandu pondered for a moment and said, "It's okay, if you calculate carefully, this is the first time I've been to the Jinguan Mansion." ”
The palace official smiled: "That's natural, how old do you want to travel all over the world? There are always places you haven't been to." ”
The two were talking, and suddenly heard the sound of shouting and fighting outside the courtyard, Li Xuandu looked at the palace official with a little doubt, and the palace official smiled slyly and said, "Let's watch a good show first." ”
With that, she should go out first.
Li Xuandu hesitated for a moment and went out with him.
When Li Xuandu followed the sound, he saw that in an open school field, several disciples of the Wudao Sect were fighting together, and the palace official was holding an umbrella and watching with a smile. Li Xuandu originally thought that these disciples of the Daoless Sect were just ordinary competitions, but if you look closely, these people have some meaning of fighting for life and death, and when he fought with Li Taiyi on Wangxian Terrace, it was nothing more than that.
Li Xuandu glanced at the palace officials, and had a guess in his heart, most of them were provoked by the palace officials, young and vigorous men, in front of the beautiful women they liked, always had no brains, and they couldn't stand the agitation.
The palace official looked back at Li Xuandu, saw that his face was pale, came to his side, and explained: "These people, they don't have a lot of ability but they are not small, they want to hug the beauty every day, I see that they are so idle all day long, then I will find something for them to do, at least they can be diligent, it is better than being jealous all day long." ”
Li Xuan didn't say good or bad, but said: "Be careful not to cause death." ”
The palace official said with a smile: "I have already sent someone to inform Elder Feng, and Elder Feng will come over later, one of these people will be one by one, and they will not be able to escape, so I have to think about it in front of the wall, and I will be able to be quiet." ”
Li Xuandu laughed, "No wonder someone calls you a demon girl, all this thought is used on this." ”
"That's right. The palace official didn't think it was wrong, "I and Miss Qin are from the same Ten Sects, why do others call her Miss Qin, and I am a demon girl?
Li Xuandu thought about it seriously and said: "I probably told her bluntly first, if you don't listen, then you can do it directly, if you can beat it, if you can't beat it, someone else will stand up for her." But in all fairness, her father-in-law's love for her is well known to the world, so few people dare to be rude to her, at least when I went to Liaodong, I didn't encounter such a situation. ”
The palace official said: "It's a pity, I don't have such a father, who can help me get ahead in everything, so I can't be Miss Gong." ”
Li Xuandu suddenly remembered something and said, "A long time ago, Su Su asked me if she looked like Zhang Baiyue, and I replied, no, not at all. ”
The palace official smiled: "Zifu is saying that I don't look like Sister Qin at all." ”
Li Xuandu said: "There are many people who say that I am like a senior brother and a master, but in fact, I am no one, I am Li Xuandu." If I blindly learn from the Master, like the Master, can I have the person I am today? If I were like Li Yuanying and emulate Master everywhere, Master would not have to run away from the dust, but as long as I tended to move and galloped, I would not be able to keep up, because that was not my way, it was Master's way. ”
The palace officials heard Li Xuandu say this
, couldn't help but say: "It's really a big breath, that's why you can say that, if you change to someone else, you can't learn it, so why talk about going your own way." ”
As they spoke, they left the place and came to the city.
In fact, Li Xuandu, in accordance with his old habits, had already circled the city as soon as he entered the city, and was familiar with the general terrain, but that kind of sightseeing and flowering naturally could not be compared with the real tour, the two of them first went to the Wuhou Temple, in fact, the real name of this place is the first main temple. At the earliest, Wuhou Temple and the ancestral temple are separated, but Wuhou is too famous, almost a saint, so the Wuhou Temple incense is prosperous, the first temple incense is deserted, the king of Shu of this dynasty ordered the Wuhou Temple and the ancestral temple to merge, become a monarch and minister, and the people still call it Wuhou Temple, not the first temple.
Li Xuandu is full of admiration for Wuhou, and he also has a lot of respect for living first. Therefore, he first worshiped the first lord, and then worshiped Wuhou, and then left the Wuhou Temple.
After leaving the Wuhou Temple, the two walked slowly along the river bank, and suddenly saw a three-story pavilion not far away, with eaves and tiles, windows on all sides, standing on it, and the river could be observed.
When the two came to the front of the building, they saw two extremely wide long cards hanging on the pillar in front of the door, with a pair of long couplets engraved on them, and the upper and lower couplets each had as many as 100 characters.
The palace official had obviously been here and asked, "Zifu, have you ever heard of a very famous long couplet on this Wangjiang Tower?"
Li Xuandu nodded, "I've heard of it." ”
The palace official pointed, "That's it." ”
Li Xuandu walked closer and recited the couplet: "Several floors support the east and west peaks alone, and they are near the water and remote mountains, for Zhang to draw a score." Gather the snow of the green ridge, scatter the smoke of the white river, bake Dan Jingxia, and dye the fog of green clothes. Sometimes the poet hangs the ancients, and sometimes the warriors raise the edge. The most pitiful stamens are scattered, and the spring boudoir mirror has been buried early. Kaiquat is lonely, and there is a green fragrant grave empty. There are mixed feelings about this. Smiling butterflies, always greedy and drunk in dreams. Try to shout from the top: Ask, who is this half of Jiangyue?"
The palace official asked, "Zifu, what are your favorite sentences of Shanglian?"
Li Xuandu shook his head and said: "It's too sad, I don't have such a state of mind, and I don't want to have such a state of mind." ”
The palace official smiled slightly, and recited the following couplet: "The Xichuan Bureau has been changed repeatedly for thousands of years, and the great work has been done, pretending to be a hero." Leaping over the dragon on the hill, the phoenix before the slope, the tiger lying down, and the frog at the bottom of the well. Suddenly the iron horse Jinge, suddenly the silver sheng jade flute. It's better to sing long songs and short things, and throw away some idle hatred and sorrow. The curved sill corridor withstands the wind and rain. Groaning and crouching, there is no return from all over the world. jumped to death, and finally fell into the Qiankun set. Let's bow to the ladder: Look, that cloud is my God. ”
Li Xuandu said softly: "The world is not chaotic and Shu is chaotic first, and the world has been decided." ”
The palace official sighed with emotion: "Even if it is an iron horse Jinge, he swallows thousands of miles, scolds Fang Xuan, or plays Lego, has fun in time, and is drunk and dreams of death." In the end, it's all in the past. ”
Li Xuandu said: "I don't know who made this long couplet, but when he made this long couplet, there was obviously a Wangjiang Tower for him to live in. The curved sill corridor withstands the wind and rain. They can still complain here, but what about those people who are starving to death, there is no tile on them, there is no food in their stomachs, and what cloud is their heaven? Officials, you and I are not born from a high-ranking family, and we should not forget our origins. Zhumen's wine and meat stink, and there are frozen bones on the road. If we are innocent people who starved to death, froze to death, and died in the war, how do we feel when we see this long couplet?"
