Rong Baobao and Fang Zhimei still knew little about the affairs of Riyue Mountain, and they knew very little about other sects in the world.
Rong Baobao's understanding of Jianghu basically came from Hei Ji's mouth. As for the master of Riyue Mountain, Chong Huamei and others who watched her grow up, they didn't hear much about Jianghu from their mouths.
After all, to Rong Baobao, they are more like female officials in the palace, and they don't have much of a worldly atmosphere.
Fang Zhimei knew a little more, probably what he heard when he was paying attention to the feud between brother Shou'an and Fairy Jiayun.
What you see with your own eyes is not as good as the legend.
Rong Baobao and Fang Zhimei only felt that the nickname "The Sun, Menstruation, Sky, Rivers, and the Great Way" seemed very powerful.
He no longer looks like a charlatan, but a god walking in the world!
"The sun and moon pass through the sky, and the rivers pass through the earth, expressing a sense of eternity and greatness." Qin Shou'an explained to them, "This is the nickname I gave Master."
After saying that, Qin Shou'an nodded with great satisfaction. Only such a nickname can be worthy of his master.
He also gave his master nicknames such as "A flash of light represents the end of a thousand years of swordsmanship", "Thousands of stars sparkle in the moonlight and a page of the red book" and so on.
The master felt ashamed and did not allow him to shout these nicknames when facing the enemy.
In fact, no matter what nickname Qin Shouan calls out, as soon as the other person finds out that she is Jiang Hongshu, he will be frightened and either kneel down or run away. In short, no matter how impressive the nickname is, it will not add more intimidation.
"Brother Shou'an, if you give your master a nickname, won't people in the world feel like you're bragging when they hear it?" Fang Zhimei wanted to laugh a little.
Although Brother Shouyasu has grown up and become more mature, reliable and trustworthy, in fact he is still the same person they are familiar with. Giving Master such a handsome and majestic-sounding nickname is just like giving him a nickname when he was a child. Everyone has the same nickname.
"Even Hei Ji doesn't have such a long nickname!" Rong Baobao thought for a while. Hei Ji said that she was often given some gifts by people in the world because she did some wise, mighty, and honorable things when she was in the world. nickname.
The Black-Winged Dragon Queen, the Black Evil of Black and White, the Black Dapeng, the Flying Black Hero, the Black Dragon Immortal King and so on.
Rong Baobao couldn't figure out what kind of deeds could earn these nicknames, but in terms of the number of nicknames, Hei Ji should be among the best in the world.
Kuroji?
Hei Ji is the person close to the Queen Mother, so naturally she has more contact with Rong Baobao.
Qin Shouan couldn't help but glance at Rong Baobao worriedly. No wonder he always felt that Rong Baobao was not as smart and smart as Fang Zhimei now. It turned out that the root cause was here.
His analysis is well-founded, just look at Tang Wanrong and you will know.
Princess Langya was supposed to be a cautious, capable and scheming person, but since she invited Hei Ji and Bai Ji to her side, what has Tang Wanrong done recently?
Take the recent heifer incident as an example. If she encountered a real beast, Tang Wanrong would not be as happy as a cow being painted on her belly button... Fortunately, Qin Shouan was not as good as a beast.
It seems that whether it is for Rong Baobao or for Tang Wanrong to manage and run the palace at a normal level and take care of her extremely wealthy family business, Qin Shou'an has to get Hei Ji and Bai Ji by his side.
At a small level, it is for the Langya Palace, and at a large level, it is for the foundation of Xin Qin.
As for his own IQ and state of mind, he is not worried about being polluted by Hei Ji and Bai Ji, only that they are under his control.
"Of course my master deserves such a nickname. As the saying goes, there is only a wrong name, not a wrong nickname. I think that when my master first traveled down the mountain, he helped the New Qin army conquer the remnants of the previous dynasty in the northwest. The most important city in the country..."
Qin Shou'an recalled leisurely that this matter was widely spread in the world, and it was not the master's boast.
"Therefore, Tiandao Sect has also received the trust and praise of the imperial court. This is why I will become a disciple of Tiandao Sect instead of other sects..." He felt a little emotional. If the master could predict the future, he would know that her sword would bring troubles for her. Dear disciple, I don’t know if it will be more fun and enjoyable.
"After all, it wasn't too long ago that the previous dynasty was destroyed. Many Jianghu sects are still inextricably linked to the remnants of the previous dynasty. How much martial arts achievements the prince can achieve as a disciple is secondary. Safety is the most important..."
When Qin Shou'an was traveling, he encountered some remnants of the previous dynasty who wanted to assassinate him. After the failure, they called the master a lackey of the court, but the master did not care about the insults. She did not think that she was a lackey, and at the same time, she felt that dogs were stronger than many people. Loyal and delicious.
"Later I found out that Master cut through the Yumen City Gate with one sword just because she saw that under the high sky and the vast clouds, the sky was full of yellow sand, but behind the city gate there was lush water, grass, and greenery. It was like two worlds intertwined. She The sword intention in my heart surged, so I swung the sword casually without any other intention..."
Qin Shou'an talked endlessly when talking about her master. After all, she was the first person to really use force to convince Qin Shou'an.
The Grand Master is just a legend. Even Qin Shouan, the head of the Tiandao Sect, has never experienced how powerful this Grand Master is.
The master of Riyue Mountain is also a great master, but she was in abnormal condition, and was whipped, suppressed, and slapped by Qin Shou'an, but she didn't show much ability.
However, her ability could drain people dry. Even though he tried his best, she couldn't satisfy her ability. It made him feel a little weak and his legs were weak. Of course, she was referring to the fact that she had drained away Qin Shou'an's true energy, and Qin Shou'an had all his true energy. Even her anger can't fill up her acupuncture points.
As long as she takes the Guanghan Toad Palace Pill, Qin Shou'an still doesn't feel weak about her.
After all, the master is still powerful. He says that she is just an unknown person in the world, but the world respects her as a fairy.
…
…
After Qin Shou'an chatted and played with his two sisters, he returned to Haitang Chunwu. Huaiyu asked Han Xin and Yue Qing to go to bed first. She sat on the edge of the bed, holding the book that she had turned over countless times. Reading medical books.
There are burrs on the edges of the book, and the pages are slightly yellowed. The printing is not exquisite, but the handwriting is clear.
Huaiyu didn't wear shoes, and her fleshy feet were placed together. The shadow falling on the ground was like a dove spreading its wings. Her legs were swaying, and the dove was about to spread its wings and fly.
The hem of the skirt is thin and transparent, unable to cover the lines of her legs. Her waist is light but connects the upper and lower parts. Her long hair hangs down on her chest, adding a quiet and elegant charm to her. Her light brows are slightly wrinkled and her lips are tightly pursed. Pouring her lips, she seemed to be a female bachelor who was studying seriously, her face full of desire and doubts for learning.
"Do you recognize all the words in this book?" Qin Shou'an took the book from her hand and took a look.
Qin Shou'an read and wrote with Ming Shiyin when he was a child. It didn't take long for Ming Shiyin to feel that he was not suitable to teach Qin Shou'an, so he brought various books to Qin Shou'an.
There are many kinds of these books with various contents, and some of them are ancient ancient books that have been preserved for a long time. It is difficult for Qin Shou'an to understand them, so it is naturally impossible to read them all.
The medical book Huaiyu read was one of them. It was the "Chun Emperor's Medical Book" which was widely circulated but difficult to tell whether it was authentic or not.
"Oh... I can't recognize them all, but some of the characters look like pictures. You can guess." Huaiyu doesn't know the characters as well as Yueqing. Many times she asks Yueqing, but Yueqing doesn't know, so she gradually meets Yueqing. Huaiyu didn't ask Yueqing for words he didn't recognize, and relied on his own guessing.
Qin Shou'an turned a page and found that there were many words in it that he didn't recognize, so he pointed to a twisted and complicated word and asked Huaiyu, "Guess what word it is?"
"This word means... Wu..." Huaiyu frowned and thought for a while, then analyzed based on his previous experience of guessing words: "Even when it rains... when it rains... I still need acupuncture. Look at the twists and turns here, they actually mean to burn the fire, which means to roast the needles on the fire."
"Ah?" Qin Shou'an was startled for a moment. According to Huai Yu's description, this word seemed to really mean that.
He couldn't help but laugh. His eldest maid didn't seem to be particularly stupid. Regardless of whether her guess was correct or not, it was a good thing to be able to use her brain and develop her thinking and logic skills.
So he sat down and hugged Huaiyu, put one hand into her arms, held the medical book in the other, and asked her what the other words meant.
Huaiyu obediently allowed him to do whatever he wanted, with flushed cheeks and trying hard to explain his views so that his mind was not empty and dizzy.
If it were a new and unfamiliar word, Huaiyu would not be able to imagine it in this situation, but she could retell what she had already read before, which gave Qin Shou'an a lot of inspiration.
According to Huaiyu's interpretation, Qin Shou'an could read the previous contents of this medical book fluently, especially some of the acupuncture techniques recorded, which were quite similar.
After reading medical books for a while, Qin Shou'an put down the bed tent, hugged Huaiyu, who was already as soft as cotton, and rolled into the bed. He didn't act like a flower picker outside, but the flowers in this house were still fragrant enough.
…
…
The sun was shining in the sky, and the birds were chirping and flying around to poop.
The late spring in Longyin City seemed to be finally leaving. When Qin Shou'an had just returned, the water of the Nanhuai River had just lost its cold winter feeling mixed with ice and snow.
Now the ducks playing in the water were particularly energetic. They walked ashore from the warm river water, waddled to find remote places, and pulled out an egg with a "quacking" sound.
Some children also picked up wild duck eggs, filled them into woven bamboo baskets, and took them to the market to sell. These wild duck eggs are smaller in size, but they are also sold cheaply, and they are often sold out in a short time.
Some of these children took the coins they earned, and immediately exchanged them for various kinds of food, while others sensibly gave them to their parents to support the family. After receiving a few words of praise, a bright smile appeared on their dirty and dark faces. It actually feels warmer than this late spring.
"Rice noodles... red soup spicy rooster noodles..."
"Guanpu sachet, painting fan, and bead pendant!"
"Yunlun Archery...Hey, this guest officer hit a pheasant!"
"The Langya Palace wants little girls under ten years old! If you are good-looking, you can send them over for a look... You can sell your body or not. Those who sell themselves will be raised in the inner courtyard, and those who don't will learn the rules in the outer courtyard first... Note: You must grow up It has to look good!”
All kinds of shouts, bargains, and arguments on the riverbank mix together to form the human fireworks of late spring. For ordinary people in the city, paying attention to useful things, satisfying their appetites, or having some fun is the right thing to do. thing.
As for the high-ranking Langya Palace at the end of the bustling long street, in the three lanes and seven alleys, what it has to do today is not something that small people can pay attention to.
Only then did the big shots know that the crown prince of Langya Palace had succeeded to the throne.
Normally, when the crown prince succeeds to the throne, the date can be decided early, and then the palace can prepare for the celebration and draw up the invitations to attend the ceremony.
The ingredients used at the banquet alone have to be prepared long in advance. What can and cannot be used, what specifications and grades, and how much it costs, all need to be calculated in thick accounting books.
There are also some famous opera troupes and juggling clubs in Beijing that need to be booked in advance, and trivial chores can only be completed in three to five days.
The succession of Prince Langya to the throne is very different. At first, he was delayed, which made people think it was the palace's intention. However, now he has made a hasty decision. The people of Zongzheng Temple are anxious, but Prince Langya's palace has never done anything. There was no rush from beginning to end.
Anyway, the Langya Palace has not made any preparations, so it is impossible to invite a banquet to watch the ceremony. The people waiting to see the excitement in the three lanes and seven alleys only know that today the people from the Ministry of Rites, Zongzheng Temple and the palace who announced the decree and performed the ceremony entered the palace. From now on, everyone will see each other. The young man who looks beautiful but is cruel and cruel has to call him "Your Highness".
…
…
Qin Shou'an changed into the prince's uniform at Haitang Chunwu. According to the regulations: the crown uniforms are all like those of the East Palace. The second crown is made of five colors, nine crowns, nine jade crowns, gold hairpins, red tassels and two jade ornaments.
The crown has a mysterious surface and Zhuli, a round front and a round back, with nine strands in the front and back. Each bamboo reel is reeled with five picks, and nine jade picks are made of five picks, red, white, green, yellow, and black in sequence.
Normally Han Xin and Yue Qing thought that the little maids at Haitang Chunwu were trying to replace them without even knowing the style of their clothes. However, at this time, including Huai Yu, they did not dare to dress Qin Shou'an. Dressed up.
The mother-in-laws who originally served the old prince dressed Qin Shou'an with a solemn expression after bathing and changing clothes. The three maids of Haitang Chunwu could only hold their breath and concentrate on studying.
"Your Highness!"
After Qin Shou'an put on the uniform, several mothers-in-law had tears in their eyes. They were respectfully called "mother-in-law". In fact, they were not very old, but they were senior enough.
Their original status with the old prince was like that of the three maids at Haitang Chunwu now. They had served the old prince in changing his clothes all their lives. Now it was probably the last time they would officially serve His Highness in his royal robes, and it was inevitable that they would feel a little emotional.
Qin Shou'an waved, and Huaiyu quickly took a few red paper packets from his arms.
"This is a red envelope." Qin Shou'an gave the red envelope to several mothers-in-law.
The mother-in-laws didn't know why, so they opened it and looked at it, only to find that there were banknotes inside, and they quickly thanked them. It was common for the master to give a reward at this time, but the red paper wrapping it seemed unique and unprecedented.
Your Highness has had many fantastic ideas since he was a child, and his mothers-in-law have long heard of them. They collected the red envelopes and expressed their gratitude with a smile again.
After the mothers-in-law left, the three maids immediately gathered around happily. Some called "Your Highness" and some called "Prince". They cheered and cheered. Qin Shou'an also took a red envelope and gave it to them, "This is called a mouth-correction red envelope."
In fact, the three maids each hold a bunch of red envelopes, and they will give out red envelopes to everyone except Tang Wanrong later... This is Qin Shou'an's idea. As for other rewards, the accountant is responsible for it, and the servants in the mansion can go and collect them on their own.
"Let's go!"
Qin Shouan looked at himself in the bronze mirror and sighed slightly in his heart.
The Crown Prince is the truly carefree and free person.
When he truly inherited the throne, from this moment on, he not only shouldered the safety and future of the entire Langya Palace, but also the responsibility of the Lord of the Nine Provinces Palace.
The succession ceremony was complicated and lengthy, starting in the morning and ending at dusk.
Then the eunuch Yu Zheng read out the imperial edict. His Majesty conferred the title of Lord of the Kyushu Prefecture on King Qin Shou'an of Langya. At the same time, he sent seals, gold certificates, jade albums and rewards. The gift list alone was two feet thick, which made Yu Zheng read it with ease. Dry tongue.
He could not pause while reading the imperial edict. After Yu Zheng finished reading, he drank three bowls of tea. Fortunately, along with Tang Wanrong's pleasant aroma, there was also a banknote.
For eunuchs, the aroma of banknotes is far more attractive than the scent of a woman's body. No matter how beautiful the princess is... Hey, something seems wrong. Did the palace miss the ceremony of canonizing the concubine?
Or make up for it later? That's probably the case. Normally everyone would change their words.
When Qin Shou'an just returned to the city, His Majesty had given him a gift. Although the gift list this time was astonishingly heavy and made people jaw-dropping at the royal family of the Langya Palace, for those who care about the political affairs of the court, it was not surprising that it did not convey signal.
What really makes people wonder is the reward given by the Queen Mother.
When a prince succeeds to the throne, according to the system, only his majesty can grant rewards.
The Queen Mother's awarding of rewards is actually somewhat unethical, but it is harmless, and no one is so ignorant that they would advise a Queen Mother who listens to politics behind the curtain because of this matter.
What caused countless officials in Longyin City to talk about it was that the Queen Mother's reward was grander and more generous than His Majesty's. In addition to various treasures of gold and silver, she directly rewarded King Langya with a piece of land between Jingjingzhaojian Temple and Fuxian Lake.
This piece of land was once coveted by the Rong family. Duke Rong once asked the Queen Mother for it in person, preparing to build a separate courtyard to provide for him in his old age.
What Duke Rong Guo wants is only one-tenth of the area awarded by the Queen Mother today.
The reason why the Queen Mother refused at first was that she did not want to see the manor and courtyard on the left when admiring the scenery on Guanhai Tingtao Cliff, which would destroy the purity of the sea and sky.
The Rong family had no choice but to find another piece of land. Although it was also near Jingjingzhaojian Temple, the scenery and momentum were not as good as before.
What now?
Officials from the Ministry of Industry even calculated based on the drawings and found that this surprisingly large area was just one acre smaller than the total area of the palace.
Is this a coincidence, or does it mean something else... In short, after the official from the Ministry of Works discovered this, the civil and military officials in the court were in panic.
It is said that even His Majesty the Emperor is puzzled... However, some people say that no matter how arbitrary the Queen Mother is, she will discuss this matter with His Majesty the Emperor.
Those with connections found out from Rong Shangqing, wife of Yin Su Changqing of the Kyoto Prefecture, that the Queen Mother, who had just returned to the palace and left Longyin City, had gone to Ji Jingzhao Jian'an again.
The Queen Mother does not intend to summon or receive anyone, so naturally no one can test what the Queen Mother means.
