Murong Lan's eyes were sparkling with tears. Even if they were barbarians, men and women were as guarded as heaven. In this public place, in front of hundreds of men, it would be extremely harmful to her daughter's family. Humiliation, if it had been a few hundred years later in the Song and Ming Dynasties when Neo-Confucianism and ethics were prevalent, she would have simply hanged herself from a beam. She bit her lip tightly and said to Murong Chui: "General, do you remember lighting this for me back then?" What happens when you have a palace mole?"
Murong Chui closed his eyes, and his body was trembling slightly. This powerful man who dominated the world never imagined that today's events would lead to such a result. He gritted his teeth and said in a calm tone as much as possible: "Yes, if I remember correctly, it was my wife Duan who lit this cinnabar for you back then."
Murong Lan smiled miserably: "That was when I was just eight years old. According to the custom of our Murong family, a girl bids farewell to her child at the age of eight and needs to choose her own direction as an adult. As a member of the Murong family, my My destiny has been decided long ago, that is, to become a secret agent of the Murong family and serve the Murong family all my life. Detecting intelligence, practicing martial arts, studying riding skills, and even assassination, poisoning and spreading rumors are all survivals that I need to master in the future. Skill."
Fu Jian couldn't help but be moved when he heard this: "I didn't expect that the Murong family would have such requirements for the girls in the clan. They have to learn so many terrible things at a young age. Even a man who is a dead man may not be able to succeed."
Fu Rong said coldly: "Murong of Xianbei is good at espionage. This is not surprising. But as your mistress, Mrs. Duan personally lit this cinnabar for you. I'm afraid she had other intentions. .”
Murong Lan closed her eyes, and a line of clear tears fell from the corners of her eyes: "Yes, I am a girl after all. If I enter the enemy country as a woman to spy on military intelligence, I will probably use my body to train according to our Murong family. According to the rules of fine craftsmanship, once a woman loses her virginity and no longer looks like jade, she will no longer be able to engage in this fine craftsmanship. Therefore, Mrs. Duan personally lit this cinnabar for me as a symbol of my Murong Lan's chastity. "
Fu Jian wondered: "How can this cinnabar prove chastity?"
Having said this, he looked at Quan Yi who was thinking carefully: "Quan Pushe, you are very knowledgeable and know a lot of things. Is there such a thing as that?"
Quan Yi opened his eyes and smiled slightly: "In Han Chinese countries, there is indeed a saying about gecko moles. This cinnabar is not an ordinary pigment, but made of gecko."
Fu Jian opened his eyes wide: "What? Gecko?"
Quan Yi nodded: "That's right. The so-called "gonggong" is a kind of lizard and scorpion. Its body is slightly flat, its spine is gray in color, there are millet-like protrusions, its belly is white and yellow, its mouth is big, its tongue is thick, and its four legs are Each has five toes, and there are many wrinkles in the toes. They are good at absorbing other objects and can swim on upright walls. They are the common "geckos"."
"According to the natural history records written by Zhang Hua, a famous minister of the Western Jin Dynasty, if the gecko is fed with cinnabar, the gecko will turn red all over. After eating seven kilograms of cinnabar, the gecko will be crushed into pieces and pounded with thousands of pestles. The point where the blood veins of the virgin's arms intersect will not fade, and the shape will disappear by itself. The earliest method is said to have been practiced by Dongfang Shuo, an alchemist during the reign of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty. At that time, many married women were married in the Han Palace. So much so that Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty wanted to find a virgin, but it was difficult to find one. Later, he used this method to check before selecting his concubine to enter the palace, which saved a lot of trouble. From the Han Dynasty to the Jin Dynasty, noble ladies from high families often used this method. The law tests chastity.”
Fu Jian laughed: "It turns out there is such a way to test it, and these Han people really figured it out. But, is this method really effective?"
Quan Yi glanced at Murong Lan and smiled maliciously: "These are just Han people's self-talk. Even women who have lost their melons may not have moles that guard the palace!"
Murong Chui's eyes widened angrily and he said sternly: "Quan Yi! What nonsense are you talking about! My Murong family has been using this method for hundreds of years and has never missed it. You yourself also said that this method was written into the book by Zhang Hua, a famous official in the Western Jin Dynasty. , was used by Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, is it all nonsense?"
Quan Yi shook his head: "General Murong, your ancestors lived in Liaodong for a long time, and they have been trying to be Hanized for a long time. And because they didn't know whether they were true or false, they took some local methods as wisdom. Let me tell you one thing. At that time, the Han Palace Zhao Feiyan, do you know?"
Murong Chui curled up his lips: "Feiyan of the Han Palace was a slut who brought harm to the country, and her reputation has been passed down through the ages. Who knows? Although my Murong family is from Liaodong, but I am familiar with history books, how can I not hear about it?"
Quan Yi nodded: "Then Zhao Feiyan and the Zhao Hede sisters are lascivious in nature. Before entering the palace, they had already had sex with others and were familiar with sexual intercourse. However, in order to enter the palace, they had to go through the test of guarding the palace. As a result, they were in their arms. They were dotted with cinnabar, and when the Han Emperor was lucky, they used fish fat to forge ********. Only then did they deceive the Han Emperor and get favor. Because the two women had experienced people for a long time and knew each other well. The pleasures in bed are naturally a thousand times better than those of untouched aristocratic girls. That’s why Fei Yan brought disaster to the country. Doesn’t General Murong know about it?”
Big beads of sweat appeared on Murong Chui's forehead. He really didn't know about this matter, and he didn't know that he had no way to refute it. He could only say sternly: "It's a bunch of nonsense! This is all unofficial history and a mess. How can it be taken seriously? If this is the case, If Gonggong sand doesn't work, why did the Later Han Dynasty and the Western Jin Dynasty use this method to test virginity?"
Quan Yi smiled slightly: "That's just a custom made over time. You also know that the Han people don't know how to adapt to things, and many things become habits over time. General Murong, you Murong family just didn't understand it back then. If you want to learn this trick, it's just like that Bu Yao who became Murong's surname twice, I'm afraid it will make people laugh."
At this point, Quan Yi and Fu Rong looked at each other and laughed, and many officials and generals in the tent also laughed. Murong Chui's face turned red and he stood there, trembling all over, looking at Quan Yi's proud and arrogant expression. With a smile on his face and clenched fists, if Fu Jian hadn't been right in front of him, I'm afraid he would have gone out and beaten Quan Yi up!
Murong Lan suddenly said loudly: "Quan Pushe, that is to say, even this Shou Gongsha, you think you can't prove my innocence, right?"
Quan Yi looked at Fu Jian and said, "King of Heaven, I just want to tell you the truth about what I know. I have no other intention. Please make your decision."
Fu Jian curled his lips and waved his hands: "Well, these are all false claims, just like those prophecies and horoscopes, which are countless. However, what General Murong, Yang Ping Gong and Quan Pu She said are reasonable and cause trouble. I'm afraid Murong Lan's one-sided story cannot be fully believed, so we'd better find out more and make a decision."
