Chapter 1224: The God of Fire Appears
With Jia Wuqun here, Mai Deman, who was accompanied by the official frame with low eyebrows and eyes, instantly rose in spirit, and in an instant, he put on the posture of an envoy representing a country, and said lukewarmly: "The concubine and the princess are daughters, so it is naturally inconvenient for us to disturb, but even if this envoy goes to the palace to meet His Majesty the Emperor Jin, His Majesty will take the time to see him, and there is no reason to chase away guests at will." Lord Guo, this envoy represents the face of the Song Kingdom, and you also know the dignity of Mr. Jia's identity, you brought us all the way to the bottom of the mountain, and it was a coincidence that you wanted me to go back? Could it be that this is the hospitality of the Jin Kingdom?"
Jia Wuqun put his hands behind his back and looked down at his feet.
The exchanges between the countries pay attention to etiquette, Guo Wenshang was slightly embarrassed, and brought the guests to play, but it was really inappropriate to bring them back to the foot of the mountain, not to mention the etiquette between countries, even ordinary people do not have such a reason for hospitality.
And there is a reason why he can come to accompany him personally, Jia Wuqun's appearance in the Weiguo military camp to meet with the people of the Song State delegation has aroused the vigilance of the Jin State, this faceless "hidden appearance" suddenly ran to the battlefield, and suddenly came to the Jin State, I don't know if the Song State has any plans.
In short, at this time, the war has reached this point, and the Jin State does not want too many monks from other countries to intervene in the war, otherwise the power of the Jin State will be consumed too much, and the Jin State does not want to see it.
To the point where Guo Wenshang is reached, where will he take the play to heart, and there is a purpose for playing with him.
brought this Jia Wuqun here, but the Fire God Temple didn't take a fancy to it, and let him go back, which is really not suitable.
However, Guo Wenshang's smile did not change, and he pressed his hands together, "Master Mai, I misunderstood, Ming people don't say dark words in front of them, I guess you have also heard about the Seventh Princess, it is not appropriate to rush into it at this time, I just have some concerns, I still have to say hello first." Don't be impatient!"
He turned around and pulled the mountain guard aside and whispered something to him.
After that, I saw that the general guarding the mountain left quickly, and rushed all the way up the mountain to report.
Mai Deman quietly glanced at Jia Wuqun's reaction, and secretly sighed in his heart, and found that this hidden appearance was really extraordinary, from the time he decided to see the seventh princess, it was the Fire Temple and Guo Wenshang's, and the introduction could be said to be buried all the way, and it was all in his calculations.
The seventh princess who did not leave the palace was lured out of the palace, and it was difficult to see her when she left the palace, and she preset Guo Wenshang's hand, if there was no Guo Wenshang, I am afraid that it would be difficult to even go up the mountain today.
It's hard to say, it's not difficult to say it's not difficult, it's not difficult to say, in the hands of this hidden phase, it can be said to be idle and resolved.
Seeing Jia Wuqun's ability with his own eyes, he found that it was a pity for this envoy who did not come to make an envoy.
Guests are waiting at the bottom of the mountain.
The huge fire temple on the mountain was deserted, filled with cigarette smoke, and surrounded by sporadic guards.
In the main hall, Concubine Lan and her daughter Uncle Huan'er were kneeling under the hideous sculpture of the god of fire and praying sincerely, and the mother and daughter with pious faces were both beautiful.
The mountain guard general who came to report arrived at the door of the main hall and was stopped by the eunuch waiting outside the door.
The general guarding the mountain looked inward, and found that he was praying, and it was indeed not appropriate to disturb the interruption, so he whispered a few words to the eunuch.
The eunuch nodded slightly, pressed his hand slightly, and motioned for him to wait.
Inside the hall stood a solemn temple wish, and glanced at the door twice, taking in the movement outside the door.
The mother and daughter got up after praying, Concubine Lan beckoned, and immediately a palace maid approached and presented the golden ticket of the world's money village to the temple.
"My mother and daughter went up the mountain, mobilized the people, disturbed your temple, and showed a little incense money. Concubine Lan Guifei motioned for the temple to accept it.
"The concubine is serious. Miao Zhu took the golden ticket with both hands, thanked Concubine Lan first, and saluted Uncle Huan'er, but after the ceremony, he sent a message to Uncle Huan'er, "Looking at the princess's complexion, when you are far away from noisy people, how close to pure people, you can clear your mind and avoid bad luck!"
Whether it is the royal family or the commoners, there is always a little awe of these mysterious sayings, otherwise there would be no existence of this fire temple, and the mother and daughter would not have come here. Especially in charge of this temple, the body will always give people a sense of blurred color more or less, and it is easy to turn people's feelings.
Miao Zhu suddenly said this, as if he had hit something, and Lan Guifei, who was about to turn around and leave, immediately stopped and asked: "Dare to ask Miao Zhu, what is a noisy person and what is a pure person?"
There was a slight expectation in her eyes, the misery in her heart was really nowhere to talk, she thought that her daughter was the pearl of His Majesty's palm, and she would definitely be able to marry a good husband in the future, her daughter could not only be happy, but she could also have a support after she was old and decrepit, who knew that His Majesty was ruthless, and he actually let his daughter commit herself to Chen Changgong.
You need to know that she is only in her thirties, and Chen Changgong is in her fifties, but she wants to marry her daughter and let a person in her fifties call her mother?
She also cried and begged Tai Shuxiong, that is your most beloved daughter, how can you bear it?
But it was useless, a careless sentence also provoked the anger of Tai Shuxiong. She also knows that it is a matter of the battle of national fortunes, and in the ups and downs of this group of men, she is a woman who is a leaf in this storm, rising and falling with the wind, saying that it is useless, and finally has to follow.
In the end, I had to face the reality, and I could only comfort myself, Chen Changgong was older, and once he made great achievements, he could be regarded as a dependent.
But who would have thought that Yin except that old bastard didn't take the princess in his eyes, ignored the emperor's orders, and refused to let Chen Changgong and the princess get out of danger and send them back, and even killed Chen Changgong with his own hands!
After she heard the news, she was like being hit by five thunderbolts, how could her daughter marry after that? Who would dare to marry a man with a little status?
She fainted on the spot, and when she woke up, she cried, and also found the emperor to cry, begging the emperor to severely punish Yin Jie, and I can't wait for the emperor to destroy Yin and eliminate the nine clans in order to vent the hatred in her heart.
How do you know that the emperor just had a black face, and did not mean to severely punish Yin Jie, and warned her that she was not allowed to cry, and she was not allowed to mention Yin Jie's killing of Chen Changgong to anyone, and also ordered her to strictly order the people around her not to leak half a word, otherwise she would never be able to open her mouth!
Later, he even rewarded Chen Changgong's wife and children, and simply regarded his daughter's experience as nothing, like a plaything given to Chen Changgong, the emperor was so ruthless, how could he embarrass his daughter's affection, and let her be embarrassed?
After her daughter came back, she washed her face with tears all day long, and the emperor didn't even come to see it.
After a series of misfortunes, she heard that coming to the fire temple to worship can burn bad luck, whether it is useful or useless, whether her daughter wants it or not, she pulled her daughter here, hoping and praying that the fire god can eliminate bad luck.
At this time, listening to the reminder, I can't help but feel my heartstrings move, and I want to find a true solution.
Miao Zhu calmly replied: "Misfortune comes out, people are terrible, those who talk a lot will have many things, and pure people are silent!"
Lan Guifei seemed to understand whether she understood or not, and wondered in her heart, isn't it that a person who speaks a lot of trouble and has a lot of things to do, if it weren't for that Shao Pingbo who talks nonsense, how could her daughter suffer from this catastrophe? Isn't it terrifying to say that people are not afraid now, and now I don't know how many people are pointing fingers and poking the backbone of their mother and daughter behind their backs.
As for the pure people's silence, she was a little unsure.
"Master Xie said!" Concubine Lan also thanked her slightly, and then the mother and daughter walked out of the main hall.
As soon as he walked out, the eunuch waiting at the door immediately stepped forward to report: "Guifei Niangniang, General Li has something to report." ”
Concubine Lan looked at the general guarding the mountain and asked, "General Li, what do you want to report?"
General Li stepped forward and arched his hand: "Daxing ordered Guo Wenshang and Lord Guo to lead the distinguished guests of the Song Kingdom to come to the Fire Temple to visit, the concubine and the princess are here, and Nanling Mountain has been blocked. ”
Concubine Lan was a little surprised, "What kind of distinguished guest is actually accompanied by Lord Lao Guo in person?"
General Li: "The distinguished guest is the Song envoy Mai Deman, but Lord Guo told me that the real distinguished guest is Jia Wuqun, the 'hidden appearance' of the Song Kingdom, which is a matter of state affairs, and I hope that Niangniang will understand." ”
Concubine Lan had a slightly dissatisfied look on her face, and what she meant when she heard this was that she couldn't let them go up the mountain if she didn't let them go up the mountain.
However, if she is unhappy, she is just a respected mother, and in the face of state affairs, between her and Guo Wenshang, she can really only be said by Guo Wenshang, if she really misses any state affairs, she can't bear it.
"What kind of hidden appearance, what kind of official position is this?What kind of person is Jia Wuqun, why has this palace never heard of it?" Lan Guifei frowned and asked, letting her bow her head, she must know which lord it is, it is impossible to easily bow her head without even knowing anyone.
"This," General Li muttered, "I don't know who the last general is, but he doesn't seem to be an ordinary person. Niangniang, it should not be child's play that Lord Guo can accompany him personally and be polite to him. This is to remind the other party not to compete in this kind of thing, if you can't please it, you will suffer.
He also got Guo Wenshang's muttering reminder, it is a matter of state affairs, don't let the concubine Niangniang do bad things, otherwise Your Majesty will blame it, and you General Li will not be able to bear it if you don't know the severity.
But an old eunuch on the side spoke up, "Niangniang, this hidden Jia Wuqun, the old slave has heard of it a little." ”
Lan Guifei sighed, "Let's hear it." ”
The old eunuch said: "This person is the worship of the Prime Minister of the Song State Zi Pingxiu's house, it is rumored that Zi Pingxiu has been entrenched in the Song State for many years, and he relies on this person's advice and wisdom behind it, and he is quite influential to the Prime Minister of the Song Dynasty, so he is known as the 'hidden phase'." Hidden appearance is just a name in the rumors of the outside world, not an official position, I heard that this person does not have any official position, the former Song Emperor Mu once recruited him to enter the court as an official was also rejected by him, it is a white body!"
Lan Guifei's expression was slightly solemn when she heard this, Jia Wuqun she didn't know, but Ziping Xiuyan had never heard of it, it was the prime minister who had been in the Song State for many years, and the Mu family could still be in the position of prime minister after the fall of the imperial power, and its status in the Song State could be imagined, but this Jia Wuqun had influence on Ziping Xiu, no wonder.
On the side, another female monk accompanying the guard spoke up: "I have also heard a little about this Jia Wuqun, this person once ran to the Ethereal Pavilion without knowing the height of the sky and talked nonsense, but the Ethereal Pavilion uprooted his tongue and threw it to feed the dogs, which became a joke for a while, and was jokingly called Jia Wuqun!"
"Ah, if you pull out your tongue and feed it to a dog, there is such a thing? Without a tongue, wouldn't you be dumb..."Lan Guifei couldn't help laughing, but her smile was stunned again, she didn't know what she thought, she looked back at the majestic and intimidating statue of the god of fire high in the main hall, and slowly looked back at her daughter.
The taciturn uncle Huan'er seemed to realize something when she heard this, and she just looked at her mother, and when she saw her mother's eyes, she probably knew what her mother thought.
"Could it really be that the God of Fire has appeared..."Lan Guifei muttered.
