Harry Potter Morning Light.

Chapter 2168 Flower Controversy (76)
Once in No.40 of A Dream of Red Mansions, after coming out of the "snow cave" in Hengwuyuan, Grandma Liu and Jiamu went to Longcuian to drink tea together. After drinking tea, Jiamu felt tired and went to Daoxiang Village to rest by herself. I accompanied Grandma Liu to the archway of the "Visiting Family Villa", and Grandma Liu thought it was the archway of the "Jade Emperor Temple".

Grandma Liu didn't know if she was really illiterate, or if she was just trying to make fun of it, and made everyone laugh. Immediately afterwards, she felt a rumble in her stomach, and hurriedly dragged a little girl to ask for two pieces of paper for convenience, and waited to come out of the toilet Afterwards, Jiu Jin was blown by the wind, coupled with his age, he felt dizzy and couldn't tell the direction.

Like the people of Wuling, she walked slowly along a gravel road and came to the door of a house. After searching for a long time, she couldn't find the door. Then she walked along the bamboo fence and flower barrier for a while, and found the door of a month. Walking in, there is another pool in front of you, the water in it is clear, and there is a white stone on it.

She stepped on the stone and walked over, turned two more turns before seeing a door, and a girl walked towards her with a smile on her face.

Grandma Liu hurriedly said, "The girls left me behind, I came here by chance."

However, the girl didn't answer. Grandma Liu went to take her hand, but bumped against the board wall and hit her head so badly.

She looked carefully for a long time, and it turned out to be a painting.

She touched it to the left and looked at it to the right. This painting was different from the New Year pictures posted at her home. It looked three-dimensional, but it was flat when she touched it.

Then she turned her head and found a soft curtain. She lifted the curtain and walked in, and found that the inside was golden and pearly, the walls were exquisite and translucent, and even the bricks under her feet were emerald green.

Grandma Liu was dazzled and wanted to go out, but there was no door. As soon as she turned out from behind a screen, she saw her mother-in-law coming. Grandma Liu teased her, "You have never seen the world, but the flowers in this garden are good. You didn't live in vain."

Her in-laws didn't answer, and Grandma Liu thought, "I often hear people say that rich people have a kind of full-length mirror. Could it be that I'm in the mirror?"

After finishing speaking, she stretched out her hand to touch it, and sure enough, she touched the carved red sandalwood wall used to inlay the mirror, and there was a western mechanism on it, which could be opened and closed. Grandma Liu accidentally knocked open the mechanism while fumbling.

Walking away from the mirror, Grandma Liu found a bed. She was already seven or eight points drunk at this time, and tired of walking, thinking that this was the bed of some lady's embroidery room. She only said thank you, but was Involuntarily, he fell asleep on the bed.

Everyone waited for Grandma Liu for a long time, but when they found that she hadn't returned, Ban'er burst into tears, but the others laughed, don't fall into the latrine.

After a long search, I finally found Grandma Liu who was sleeping in the Yihong Courtyard, where Baoyu lived. At this time, not only was she snoring loudly, but she also smelled of wine and fart. The attacker was afraid that others would find out, so she hurried to the tripod. Sprinkle three or four handfuls of lily incense, cover it with a cover, clean up after a little bit, fortunately, Grandma Liu didn't vomit, and then Xi Ren took Grandma Liu back to the crowd, as if nothing happened.

The "masters" in the palace not only wear furs in winter, but also use hand stoves to keep warm. Most of them are made of copper, but the burning charcoal is not ordinary coal.The most used in the palace is Hongluo Carbon, which is produced by the Ministry of Internal Affairs. It is usually transported to the Hongluo Factory outside Xi'an for storage, and in winter it is allocated and used according to their respective grades by the Ministry of Internal Affairs.

This kind of carbon is resistant to burning, gray and white without bursting, not only has less smoke, but also has a scent when burning, but this kind of carbon is actually not the best, just like the ink made by the Ministry of Internal Affairs. .During the Kangxi and Yongzheng years, the tribute imperial ink was made by Cao Sugong in Huizhou, but in the Qianlong period, it became the ink of Wang Jinsheng and others.

These two families have a little relationship. Cao Sugong also took the imperial examination before, and later he took over other people's shops and ink models, and opened his own ink shop.Wang Jinsheng has worked in Cao's family for many years, starting as an ink maker. After mastering all the production techniques and techniques of Cao's "Sugong ink", he opened his own shop called "Jianguzhai". They are all tributes paid by officials.

Hongluo charcoal is actually a low-grade fragrant charcoal. The harem of the Qing Dynasty was still simple, and there were other heating methods besides burning red Luo charcoal. too much.

Miaoyu said that she collected the water from the plum blossoms, which probably meant that the water smelled like plum blossoms, and a bunch of tongues who had just eaten big fish and meat might not be able to taste it.

Water is odorless, and the most basic raw material for incense charcoal is also odorless. The Ministry of Internal Affairs uses ordinary hardwood from Daxing, cuts it into pieces, burns it into charcoal, and puts it in a wattle basket. The outside uses red clay mixed with spices. Brush one layer.

Good incense charcoal should be made of Quercus wugang, which mainly grows in the area of ​​Shenlongjia. It is named for the sound of metal knocking like black steel when the charcoal is burnt.Take wood as round and thin as a lamb leg bone, grind it into powder, sieve the broken carbon powder, take very fine carbon powder, then add face powder, mix the two evenly, and then add the paste boiled with glutinous rice, Knead into a ball, beat and mix, and finally press the carbon ball into a carbon cake and put it into a mold to shape.

If the wood itself has a fragrance, it will smell of incense powder. In the Song Dynasty, there was a prescription called Meihuaxiang. Take agarwood, sandalwood, and cloves, three parts of clove skin, three parts of camphor, and musk. A little, put all the spices except camphor and musk into a bowl and crush them, add four liang of charcoal and coal, and the fragrance is even. At this time, you can choose to use glutinous rice paste, or you can use glutinous rice paste with honey, add camphor and Musk is beaten and mixed into a ball, then pressed into cakes, and then put into an impermeable container. When using it, add some silver leaf or mica, and the smell after burning is plum blossom fragrance.

It's like the eggplant that Grandma Liu ate, ten chickens made that taste, a little plum in the fragrance of plum blossoms is useless, even He Shen didn't have the extravagance to use it to keep warm, it was for warm inkstones.

Wenyuan Pavilion imitated Tianyi Pavilion, and Tianyi Pavilion took the phrase "heaven produces water, and earth inherits it six times", which is intended to prevent fire, so it is impossible to enter the library with a brazier.

BJ's winter is very cold, and the ink will freeze. In this case, a little fragrant charcoal pressed into flowers is added to the warm inkstone.As for people, they can only wear more, but wearing too much is not conducive to activities, so the palace examination is held in the Spring and Autumn Period.

Given that salt merchants are as rich as an enemy country, they may be able to afford incense charcoal. Officials who confiscated their homes said that their expenses were comparable to that of emperors.

There is a saying that you don’t have to worry about having too many debts. Even though the salt merchants in Changlu can’t pay back the interest, they are still borrowing. The more important thing is that the salt government Mu Teng said on his forehead that he will spread the owed money in Yanyin, so the salt merchants are more powerful. Be fearless.

Juren was down and out, but he sold his property to treat his parents.

Tim Brothers is a strict smoking organization, and members are not allowed to smoke opium, and Nick happened to have dealt with people from the East India Company.

It is not known how many people Harrock asked to map the map. It is possible that the news leaked out. The Timbers knew that he was looking for people to draw maps everywhere, so they thought Nick was a "hateful yellow-haired spy" and leaked their " confidential".

As early as when Li Shiyao was the governor of Guangdong and Guangxi, the Tim Brothers Association had already been active. They burned down the barracks and planned to burn down the wharf. Taiwan and Siam are the main sources of Fujian rice. If the Guangzhou wharf is destroyed, then Siam It is difficult to unload rice here, and Fujian will rely more on rice from Taiwan.

They are businessmen, and at the same time they are not so purely just for business. Legend has it that the Tiandihui was created because Kangxi destroyed Southern Shaolin.

But when Juren was setting up a stall on the street, he heard people say that Tiandi would be due to a monk surnamed Hong who lived in Fenghua Pavilion in Houxi.

Keep your hair but not your head, keep your head but not your hair, some people simply shave their heads, but they don't become monks.Hong Tong's "red", like "Zhu", represents a color, and Yan Yan is a person's name. He and Hong Erfang monk met in Fenghua Pavilion, and then there was "Yan Yan" Tiandihui.

In the early years of the Qing Dynasty, anyone with a different surname who worshiped a brother was given a hundred lashes.Later, the punishment was even worse. Those who swore their blood to form an alliance and burned their watches to worship their brothers will be punished according to the Dharma.

This is still related to the braid-cutting case in the 33rd year of Qianlong's reign. Growing hair and worshiping people with different surnames are Chinese cultural customs. Koreans think that braids are ugly.

Later, the governor of Guangdong and Guangxi also really went to find him, and he really found and beat a monk Hong and a person surnamed Zhu, but after interrogation, they did not commit any illegal acts, and the "Fenghua Pavilion" was also gone, like a fallen flower. Blown away by the wind.

After Fukangan regained Taiwan, Yan Yan was arrested. In Changhua, his public identity was the owner of a spicy seasoning shop. He was just a small trader. He denied that he was the chief rudder of the Tim Brothers Association. The meeting originated in Sichuan, and it was founded by a man named Li and a monk named Zhu.

He revealed that it was Monk Wan who started the meeting in Guangdong, as well as Zhao Mingde, Chen Pi, and Chen Biao, three senior members of the Tiandi Association, who spread the meeting in Zhangzhou, Huizhou and other places. Yan Yan was only persuaded by Chen Biao to join the meeting.

They have a code word: the three surnames are married to Li Taohong, and Jiulong is born to Li Zhuhong.

Li Zhuhong is the general name of the founder.

The "leader" who is currently active in Guangzhou is also surnamed Yan, named Yan Pinyu. Since Zhang Maqiu burned the barracks and was arrested by Li Shiyao for burning and looting the salt field, Guangzhou has been very peaceful. As for the existence of Yan Pinyu, it is only a rumor.

Nick's only way out now is to rely on the government, that is, the admiral. Juren's evaluation of him is just a bust, but he is not in a hurry for justice.

The common people like him because he doesn't search. Do the officers and soldiers like him?

"After being dizzy for so long, I finally got some clues. Now I have tasted it. The admiral is like Xining. He will leave immediately, and the next person to take over will be in big trouble."

Juren said worriedly, as if he cared about the city he wandered in, and it happened that the cuckoo clock rang at this time, which was also an imported product.

Nick flipped through his picture album. He has been to many places, but he has not left much affection for any city. However, he feels that Guangzhou will not be forgotten.

He hesitated to include the portrait of the young man who punched him.

He remembered the little man walking towards him in a hurry at dusk, the maze-like alleys, and the reflection he saw in the bronze mirror on Mazu's birthday. The lantern, the light illuminated his face.

If it had been dark, Nick would not have seen him, would not have remembered that he knew him.

"Too heavy," whispered Georgiana.

Bonaparte didn't speak, he looked at the ceiling, as if caught in some kind of memory.

"Sorry, I shouldn't have read this book," she said softly.

"You don't want to see it?" he asked.

"I thought it was a love story." She said sadly.

"What you want to see is a love story without incident. Nick's behavior now is a normal reaction of a person."

She didn't say what would have happened if Nick hadn't provided the portrait.

That young man should go to school instead of participating in such a dangerous thing and being a "bait".

The "Brother" seemed to ring in her ears, and she was trembling all over. At this moment, she suddenly remembered that the firewood in the fireplace was not lit, no wonder it was so cold.

He took her into his arms so she wouldn't tremble.

But she still couldn't continue reading, she wanted to just be silent for a while, even though it might be a story, all of which were false, she still wanted to mourn the death of that young life.

Even if she is not Lin Daiyu's kind of sentimental person who weeps when a flower withers and has to bury it.
