The strong wind filled his ears and made a whistling sound. Qin Shou'an closed his lips tightly and breathed the cold air through his nose. Qin Shou'an looked at the foot of the mountain and suddenly felt dizzy. Even if he was not afraid of heights, in this state, he still felt dizzy. People are frightened.
He quickly lowered his head and glanced at his feet. The height difference from the hillside was only a few hundred feet, but it was still amazing. He never thought that little Riyue could jump so high.
This is definitely a mythical beast! It's almost the same as flying, and the great master certainly can't jump that high.
"Who is the mount?" Xiao Riyue knew what he was thinking. Xiao Huang was a good emperor, but sometimes he was not very smart and always wanted to provoke Xiao Riyue. After he said that, Xiao Riyue guessed it. .
"I, I'm a mount." Qin Shou'an quickly gave up. At this height, if Xiao Riyue's legs were to loosen, he would fall directly onto the deserted, gravel-covered hillside, and he would be killed even if he didn't die. Half a life - Normally, it is not a big problem to have full infuriating energy, but who told him to overestimate his ability to deliver infuriating energy to little Riyue? The little bit of recovery in his body now can probably support what he can do tonight. Master Yiyun just spent too much time learning some martial arts moves.
It seems that in the future, you will never be able to send Qi to someone whose level of martial arts, cultivation, and strength exceeds your own. The Mountain Master in a weak state can suck him dry, let alone Xiao Riyue in a normal state.
"Hahaha..." Little Riyue laughed a few times. Even she couldn't fly directly from the same place to the sky tens of thousands of feet. It was quite fun to fly down the mountain from the height of Beiyue, so she After Qin Shou'an jumped up and landed, he bounced his feet and continued to lead Qin Shou'an towards the foot of the mountain.
"This is called a few jumps, a few, it is the route of our flight." Xiao Riyue patted Qin Shou'an's butt with her backhand, "Drive..."
Qin Shou'an wasn't that scared at this time. He just held her legs with his backhand to give himself a little more sense of security... Looking down at the great rivers and mountains of Xinqin from this angle was completely a drone perspective, which was interesting.
At this time, the heaven-sacrifice team starting from Longyin City was about to arrive at the foot of Beiyue Peak in the Kunlun Mountains.
Thanks to the wide straight road that was renovated and expanded from the Yunzhou era, His Majesty's honor guard procession does not need to be stretched into a serpentine shape for several miles like a field march, and still maintains the majesty and style of the emperor's journey.
The emperor's ceremonial guard, also known as the "Lu Bu", symbolizes the emperor's supreme power and status. The size of the Lu Bu is generally related to the national strength. At this time, His Majesty the Emperor has more than 20,000 Lu Bu. In the previous dynasty, Yunzhou had more than 20,000 Lu Bu. The last time recorded that the emperor used the halogen book to offer sacrifices to heaven and earth, only more than a thousand people accompanied him.
At this time, the accompanying officials were recording the magnificence of the ceremony: the chariots and horses were flying, and the halberds, shields, and uniforms were embroidered incorrectly. The dragons and tigers are moving, and the mandarin ducks and egrets are on guard. The hills and mountains are high and the stars are shining brightly. Chen Bing's auspicious team chose horses and horses. The eight gods with strict beards are happy and want to control all the beasts... The forest of auras and flags is decorated with ritual and music. The majesty is maintained, and the trivial details are taken care of...
Isu Changqing of the Kyoto Prefecture, and Meng Zongchang of the Shaofu who returned from the funeral for the old dog at home, together with the Taichang Qing, Situ, the Yushi doctor, and the Minister of the Ministry of War, were at the front and wrote the "six quotes" for the Lu book.
The emperor's "jade chariot" in the middle of the queue in Lubu is surrounded by the two dukes of the Rong family, Prime Minister Fang Du Wei, and other princes and princes.
The two princes are the biological brothers of the Queen Mother and the biological uncles of His Majesty. They have a transcendent status. The loyal and brave Duke Rong Boyu glanced at his son-in-law in front of him. After longing for Isu of Kyoto Prefecture, he said hello to Du Wei, the prime minister.
"General, what's the matter?" Fang Duwei asked casually. As a civil servant, he was a little tired after traveling such a long distance to attend a ceremony, especially after riding all day. Looking at Rong Boyu's relaxed and leisurely look, he couldn't help but feel envious. The physique of these warriors.
"I read Mr. Fang's "Auspicious Chapter of Dragon and Phoenix" today, and I can't help but be amazed. Mr. Fang's poems and articles are the best in the world, and I can't catch up with them. I heard from Chang Qing that this article by Mr. Fang has lofty intentions and is full of flowers. , splendid and prosperous, after your majesty read it, Long Yan was delighted, and then he made up his mind to come to worship heaven." After Rong Boyu finished speaking, he laughed and held his hands to show his admiration.
Fang Duwei's face was expressionless, his eyes were stern, and he yawned again before saying lazily: "The general is just mocking the truth and looking for trouble. He has to coax your majesty to come to worship heaven, and then ask for trouble? Excuse me, your majesty." Remember, I was given the magical elixir from Riyue Mountain, and I don’t feel any pain after taking it.”
Now if Fang Duwei is given a bed, he can fall asleep in one breath, but he still has to say something about the situation, and he cannot let Rong Boyu laugh at him in vain.
"I don't dare, I don't dare. I just heard what my little girl said. Recently, there has been a gathering of Chinese talents in Longyin City. Among them, there are countless young talents, hidden dragons and crouching tigers. She is looking for a young man who will make a big splash in Caiyun Xinghe Tower these days. We are going to give him the opportunity to participate in the poetry gathering where your wife will also be present." Apart from wanting to laugh at Fang Du Wei, Rong Boyu didn't have anything serious to do, just chatting.
Fang Duwei smiled slightly. Today's aristocratic families mostly rely on poetry and calligraphy to pass down their family names, and attach great importance to imperial examinations and poetry articles. However, the Rong family has many famous generals, and their influence is mainly concentrated in the military. Because of this , the Rong family does not want the world to regard him as a rude warrior who only knows how to wield swords and guns, and loves arty elegance very much.
It is a pity that the children of the Rong family really have no talent in poetry and articles. In the previous dynasty, there were occasionally one or two who could barely read. But so far in this dynasty, no one from the Rong family has taken the imperial examination and entered the officialdom.
Rong Boyu's youngest daughter Rong Shangqing was also a great beauty. When she was young, she relied on rote memorization of some poems and articles, coupled with the praise of her contemporaries, and won the title of "talented girl". In the eyes of Fang Duwei, That so-called talent is simply ridiculous, far inferior to his daughter Fang Zhimei.
This Rong Shangqing relied on the power of the Rong family to marry Su Changqing, a great talent who was famous in the capital at that time. From then on, Su Changqing's official career went smoothly, and if nothing unexpected happened, he would succeed Fang Du Wei in running the government.
This means the further expansion of the power of the Rong family, and it also means that the Rong family finally no longer tries to waste time on the children of the Rong family. If they have time to train them to be civil servants, it is better to directly control the young and promising talents for their own use through marriage. .
Most people would inevitably feel a little resentful when faced with someone who is waiting for them to abdicate and take over. But every time Fang Duwei saw Su Changqing, he felt sad. It was because his wife was too strong and her life was miserable... I thought. Back then, we all had the reputation of being great talents, how comfortable and unrestrained it was...
"Why is the prime minister laughing, sighing, and wailing again?" Rong Boyu's younger brother, the heroic Duke Rong Zhongqiao, had just stopped talking, but seeing the changes in Fang Duwei's expression, he couldn't help but find it funny and intervened.
Fang Duwei came back to his senses and laughed: "You must have a great talent to make Miss Rong San work so hard. I have been busy with official duties recently, so I have not paid attention to these young people in the capital. As for Caiyun Xinghe Tower... Why did that talented man become so famous?"
This kind of romantic scandals among literati have always been talked about by people. Fang Duwei also wanted to hear the gossip, but he was more suspicious that it was because Rong Shangqing had already looked down on the rather useless Su Changqing and wanted to become famous. Xing is cheating.
Compared with Su Changqing's glory back then, Su Changqing's performance after becoming the Queen of Kyoto can be described as mediocre. A woman like Rong Shangqing only worships fame and talent. Once a man's performance is not enough to convince her, she will He lost interest, even if it was her husband.
"What kind of limelight did you get..."
The two brothers Rong Boyu and Rong Zhongqiao looked at each other, both expecting the other to speak... But these limelights involved poetry, and it was really difficult for the two brothers to ask them to recite and recite related poetry.
The two brothers were born in the military. They had fought in the South and North for many years, and were familiar with military literature. However, when they heard about poetry and other things, they made their heads hurt.
So the two brothers looked at each other, and then Rong Boyu coughed lightly and called Su Changqing.
"I've met my father-in-law and my uncle-in-law. I've met the prime minister..." Su Changqing bowed humbly and respectfully. He was incited by the Prince of Nanjun to do a stupid thing a while ago, but he is still safe and sound all thanks to the power of his father-in-law's family. The period of being a human being with your tail between your legs in front of them.
"Changqing, read the poem that the young man Shang Qing mentioned in the Caiyun Xinghe Tower to your roommate." Rong Boyu looked at Su Changqing, still without any complacency. Although Su Changqing and Su Changqing What Prince Nan Jun did was a bit stupid, so what does it matter?
It's normal to be stupid and greedy. If Su Changqing was as smart as Fang Duwei and never left anyone with any clues on big or small matters, then how could Rong Boyu dare to use him and praise him?
Su Changqing has not been to Caiyun Xinghe Building during this time, but he still has contact with the circle of talented people in Longyin City. The girl Isha in the building used the new body made for her by a young man named "Bang Yi". The poems that combined the old style and the outer style became very famous, and the "one on the list" was even more famous in the capital, but then he disappeared. Not even Rong Shangqing sent people to find out the identity of the other person. .
"In the bed tent, her body is as bright as jade, as if Xihe has scattered a piece of moonlight and fallen on the bed, condensing with frost... The bright moonlight in front of the bed is suspected to be frost on the ground. Lying there, you can no longer distinguish the bright moon. With her, there seems to be a familiar look between the eyes. It turns out that she is a childhood sweetheart in my hometown. She was once outside the window, shining on you like the moon... Look up at the bright moon, lower your head and miss your hometown..."
After Su Changqing finished reading, he bluntly relayed a version in Fanbang script. Although he didn't recognize the weird and unfamiliar Yingluolan script, as a talented person, he had no problem memorizing the pronunciation by rote.
Fang Duwei nodded while listening. Listening to the new and old versions, he already gave a very high evaluation in his heart.
When he saw the Yingluolan language version, Fang Duwei was immediately surprised. If the young man had some poetic talent, Fang Duwei would not be surprised, but that "one on the list" actually recognized the Yingluolan language?
The Yingluolan Empire is a big country in the far west region, and it also has trade relations with Xin Qin. However, the trade routes are completely in the hands of the Langya Palace. If others want to intervene, the most important thing is the language barrier, and there are not many people in the entire Xin Qin. Understand Sakuralan language.
This is quite a talent. With this language alone, there are tasks suitable for opening up new routes for him to do. And such a knowledgeable and talented person is often not like Su Changqing, who only has poetry, but He has no talent for governing the world.
"What do you think, Mr. Fang?" Rong Boyu waved his hand, signaling Su Changqing to return to the position of "Liu Yin".
Su Changqing was summoned by Rong Boyu, and everyone was paying attention to him. However, seeing him come and leave immediately after being summoned by Rong Boyu, his expression remained unchanged, and he was not shocked by honor or disgrace. I couldn't help but think that even if Su Changqing hadn't Other skills, this Qi nourishing skill is pretty good.
Of course, not only Su Changqing, most people were good at cultivating Qi in front of Rong Boyu.
Some people are lamenting that you are the prefect of Kyoto, so what if you are a third-rank official? In front of the Rong family, he is not like a dog...
"He is a talent." Fang Duwei did not comment casually, but just said lightly. He knew that Rong Boyu had taken a liking to this young man named "Bang Yi" again.
How could the marriage between Rong Shangqing and Su Changqing be accomplished without Rong Boyu's approval? It can be said that Rong Boyu loves talents very much, and even did not hesitate to marry his daughter to Su Changqing to win him over. Now he probably wants to recruit this young man to the Rong family.
In Fang Duwei's view, such a learned and talented young man could definitely take the imperial examination and become an official in the court. When the time comes, Fang Duwei will naturally be able to arrange a suitable official position for him, so that his talent will not be buried.
But if it falls into the hands of the Rong family... Just look at Su Changqing. She was talented back then, but now she looks like a mediocre official.
"Brother, you don't have a daughter to marry anymore... No, you don't even have a granddaughter to marry." Rong Zhongqiao teased his eldest brother. Rong Boyu only had one daughter, Rong Shangqing, and the other sons gave birth to him. The grandsons are the main ones, and the only two granddaughters, one is ten years old and the other is five years old, obviously cannot be used for marriage.
The most important thing is that with the example of Su Changqing, Rong Boyu no longer intends to recruit talents by marrying off girls.
"Isn't there one in your family? There is no trace of it. Find the person first and then take a look. You can't make a conclusion based on a poem." Rong Boyu peeked at Fang Duwei's face as he spoke.
In fact, Rong Boyu had already made a calculation in his mind. If Fang Duwei was full of praises and praises, he would definitely not want it. But now that Fang Duwei has this expression, then this young man is definitely a talent that can be used.
During the emperor's ceremony, the accompanying female family members lagged far behind. Rong Boyu did not rush to find Rong Shangqing to inquire about it now, and rode forward safely.
Rong Shangqing will come, mainly because she has not seen her aunt for a long time and wants to talk to her aunt. In fact, the whereabouts of the Queen Mother, even Qin Beibei and Rong Baobao in the jade dress in the center of the book , are not completely accurate.
"Since the beginning of spring this year, my aunt has only stayed in the palace for a few days. Most of the time she has been in Zhaojian Temple in silence. Do you think she has someone here?" As the empress, Rong Baobao is not an ordinary companion. As a female family member, as long as she is not with Qin Beibei during the ceremony and goes into the jade chariot to accompany her on this journey, it will not be considered a breach of etiquette.
