Twilight War
Chapter 56 The Divine Phoenix Bird
05
Huang Xuanjin slept for a long time, and after waking up, Isabel was no longer in the bedroom.
He put on the clothes on the ground and went out.
The Gullweger Square in front of the Holy Rosary King's Hall was paved with white stone bricks, and Huang Xuanjin walked on those stone bricks a little sleepily.
Suddenly, he seemed to hear someone calling him behind him.
"—Young Master Jin, please walk slowly!"
Huang Xuanjin froze in place.
Young Master Ember?It seemed like it had been a long time since anyone had called him that.
It's been so long... Even he himself almost forgot that tens of thousands of people used to call him that.
That person walked over slowly, Huang Xuanjin turned around.
It was Tang Ruowang, a monk from Vana.
Although he could only be regarded as a priest, Huang Xuanjin knew that he was actually one of the Queen's most important cabinet ministers.
Before the second twilight battle that year, he had been ordered by the queen to negotiate with Huangxuan Jin on the huge Donghuang steam keel ship Tai No. [-], trying to know what the Huangxuan family meant.
Except for that one time, Huang Xuanjin had never seen him again.
His real name is Adam John, and Tang Ruowang is his name in Donghuang.
After the second twilight battle, Emperor Changgeng of Donghuang also realized the importance of steam machinery to the country's destiny, so he began to invest a lot of money in the Shaofu Supervisor and General Supervisor.
And Tang Ruowang went to Donghuang as a priest, was awarded the title of doctor Guanglu, and worked in Qin Tianjian.
Now the queen has called Tang Ruowang back to Vana, fearing that Vana's world will really change.
Seeing Tang Ruowang, Huang Xuanjin didn't speak, but looked up and down at him with half-opened eyes.
Tang Ruowang was accompanied by a thirteen or fourteen-year-old boy, who didn't look very clever, holding a red sandalwood box in his hand.
Even in Donghuang, red sandalwood is a good thing, more expensive than gold.
Huang Xuanjin was a little curious about what was in the red sandalwood box.
"I haven't seen you for many years, but Young Master Jin still remembers me." Tang Ruowang was dressed in a white priest's robe, with his hands clasped in front of his body. When he said the three words, Young Master Jin, he spoke with humility, like the person in front of him. The young man is still the young master of the Jiangnan Huangxuan family who holds power.
Huang Xuanjin nodded his head up and down, "I remember."
But it's just an impression, I can't say anything else, even he forgot what Tang Ruowang said to him on the Tai No. [-] back then.
"I went to the Guards just now and failed to find Young Master Jin. I thought I would never meet Young Master Jin today. Fortunately, I met him here." Tang Ruowang said with a smile on his lips, and his smile was not offensive.
"You looking for me?" Huang Xuanjin frowned.
"I brought a small gift from Donghuang for Young Master Jin." Tang Ruowang looked at the boy beside him, and asked the boy to pass the red sandalwood box to Huangxuan Jin.
"Here, here you are." The boy said angrily, he was with the priest after Father Tang Ruowang returned to Varna this time.Although it's only been two days, he still likes Father Tang Ruowang very much.
Father Tang Ruowang didn't know what Huangxuan Jin was, but he did.
This guy was a family slave of the three surnames who used to treason and collaborate with the enemy, and now he came out of the queen's bedroom, and he didn't look like a good thing.
Huang Xuanjin didn't seem to care about the boy's unreasonableness, and opened the red sandalwood box.
Inside the box is a scarlet gold brocade robe.
Yunjin is an official brocade woven by the Brocade Bureau, which was established by Emperor Baiyu himself in Jinling during the 24 Kingdoms period.
It takes several years for dozens of first-class embroiderers from the brocade department to weave a piece of brocade.
For 800 years in Donghuang, only the royal family and Huangxuan family could enjoy brocade, because Huangxuan loved wearing brocade, and Emperor Qingming even authorized Huangxuan to wear brocade in Dangui Banquet.
Among the officials wearing crimson and purple official uniforms with gold and silver fish bags, Duhuangxuan was dressed in moon-white cloud brocade, like a good man.
Huang Xuanjin slowly picked up the brocade robe, on which a crane that was about to fly was embroidered with fine gold and silver threads.
——Heming in Jiugao, the sound is heard in the wild.
"Send me?" Huangxuanjin smiled with the corner of his mouth raised, and looked up at Tang Ruowang.
"I got it by chance, and only Young Master Jin can match this red suit." Tang Ruowang bowed his head and said almost respectfully.
Huang Xuanjin twirled the cloud brocade robe with his fingers, it was as cool as sapphire and as slippery as smoke.
He half-opened his eyes and turned his head to look at Tang Ruowang, and said in a low voice, "Father is really a coincidence. Now only the royal family in Donghuang can use this brocade."
"Young Master Jin doesn't intend to accept this small gift?" Tang Ruowang asked.
"Yes, of course." Huang Xuanjin smiled and said, "I don't want a gift from someone."
Then he picked up the scarlet embroidered crane brocade robe from the red sandalwood box, and put it on his shoulders.
Scarlet robes fell from his shoulders.
"There's nothing else, I'll leave first." Huang Xuanjin said.
"Young Master Jin, let's go." Tang Ruowang bowed slowly.
Huang Xuanjin waved his hands, turned around and left with the scarlet embroidered crane robe on his body.
Tang Ruowang looked at the young man's back, the scarlet cloud brocade robe hanging down seemed to be burning on the young man's back.
It is true that Tang Ruowang and Huang Xuanjin have only met once.
But sometimes a lot of things can be decided on one side.
That year, he was ordered by the queen to go to the huge keel boat floating on the sea to meet the young master Jin of the Huangxuan family in the south of the Yangtze River.
He was led into the long and deep corridor. Donghuang people were not used to using kerosene lamps. The light inside the boat was dim, and the silver candles burning on the copper lamps illuminated the nanmu floor.
Leading in front of him was Bi Fang, a retainer of the Huangxuan family.
The Huangxuan family is the most honorable clan in Donghuang apart from the royal family.
Daughters of the Huangxuan family have always been more honorable than princesses, because they will become queens in the end.
Over the past 800 years, the Huangxuan family has produced hundreds of queens and concubines.
When he came, he thought: What a pity, there is only one Huangxuan Jin in this generation of Huangxuan's family.
He heard that Young Master Jhin was called Donghuang's Divine Phoenix Bird, and it was an auspicious beast that could only appear in the prosperous age.
Divine Phoenix bird, seeing it will bring peace to the world.
But it's a pity that today's Donghuang has long been decayed, and this Divine Phoenix Bird is probably born in the wrong era.
Few people in Xilu with such an honorable surname as "Huangxuan" would really care about what happened in a decaying country.
Even his impression of Donghuang was just those porcelain merchants and tea dealers who came across the sea.
Donghuang naturally also had a prosperous age, but that was also 500 years ago.
500 years ago was Donghuang's period of flowing fire, and the Emperor Liuhuo who inherited the century-old fortune of the Dachen Dynasty pushed Donghuang to the pinnacle of prosperity!
In the city of Chang'an, the flags are like clouds, and the city is connected by hundreds of miles, and the official horses run on Zhuque Street.Goulan is lit like day and night, and huge lights turn in turns.
Valuable porcelain and silk were sold in the eastern and western markets.
Even in the west land, many people went to Chang'an through the camel bell ancient road, and they were called Semu people by Donghuang people.
And in that prosperous age, the woman who was mentioned the most was the woman who spent the entire prosperous age supporting her——Princess Wangyue.
Looking at the moon is the moon looking at the sun.
It is the best and roundest moon.
But it's a loss when it's full.
The Yinghuo Rebellion started because of her, and the five kings led one hundred thousand soldiers to the city of Chang'an, but the woman committed suicide before the bell tower and fell to the yellow brick tower.
When she died, Donghuang's prosperity would be over.
Those prosperous times, that woman is a thing of the past.
Tang Ruowang walked in the corridor of the keel boat, looking at this declining empire, this 800-year-old clan with some regret.
And the door carved with taotie patterns slowly opened in front of him.
Nine candle lamps illuminated the dimly lit lobby, and the cloud brocade curtains hanging on the floor surrounded the incense burner and the fireworks of the silver candles.
The maids holding the gilded bronze lotus lanterns slowly dispersed like the tide, and the young master Jin of the Huangxuan family who was sitting in the half-light and half-darkness slowly raised his eyes to look at him.
He still can't explain that look clearly, aloof and noble, but with the prosperity and noise of the prosperous age.
At that moment, he seemed to feel that those porcelain merchants and tea dealers had dispersed, and that the ancient and glorious empire slowly revealed a gap in front of him.
From that gap, there is a bright moon and sky, eight hundred miles of prosperity, and the prosperous Donghuang.
And he's just a snooper.
During the Shang and Zhou dynasties, the bronze chime bells rang in unison, the celadon that had just been released from the cellar slowly opened in the wind, and the first snow in Chang'an City covered the palaces hundreds of miles away.
The prosperous world is brilliant and majestic.
...But it was just a glance after all.
The young master Jhin was wearing a scarlet brocade robe embroidered with the Divine Phoenix bird, a black black leather sword belt was tied around his waist, and his long legs wrapped in dark brocade boots were folded under the scarlet embroidered robe.
The boy didn't speak but just looked at him.
And he put his right hand in front of his chest, and slowly bowed to that young master Jin.
He still remembers the beating of his heart under the palm of his hand as he saluted.
The saluting boy just nodded his head slightly, his eyes half closed.
Later, he went to Chang'an and met the emperor of Donghuang. The Changgeng emperor was sitting on the dragon chair, with dark eyes hidden behind the crown, receiving the worship of all the officials.
The emperor forced Vana's envoys to kneel down in the posture of heaven | facing the kingdom.
But what he remembered was the slight nod of the young master Jin on the keel boat back then.
He originally thought that he would have seen Donghuang's prosperity only after going to Chang'an, but later he realized that he had already seen Donghuang's prosperity back then.
Tang Ruowang looked at the back of the young man wearing the scarlet embroidered crane and cloud brocade dress, Huangxuan Jin bumped into the pillars of Guerweger Square as if he hadn't woken up, and then looked at the pillars with some complaints, as if he was blaming the pillars Why is it here, and then changed direction and continued to walk forward half asleep.
Tang Ruowang put his right hand on his heart and bowed slowly.
Just like when he first met that boy back then.
Respectful and full of humility.
Once some things are too amazing at the first glance, you can't blame him no matter how he declines in the future, and if you look at it again, you are still willing to salute respectfully and humbly like a courtier.
Just like the boy back then.
Just like that prosperous age back then.
"Father, why are you so respectful to that Huangxuan Jin?" The boy holding the empty box asked a little confused.
"Have you ever been to Donghuang?" The priest straightened up, but still watched the young man's back.
"No." The boy shook his head, not understanding why the priest asked him this.
"That young man is worth half of Donghuang's prosperous age."
06
"Let's go, go back to the car and get the gift for Her Majesty the Queen." Tang Ruowang said to the boy beside him after watching the boy's back disappear at the gate of the palace.
"Father, how can you give the gift to that guy first? You have to send it to the Queen first." The boy muttered.
"What? You don't like Huangxuan Jin." The priest asked with a smile on his lips.
Seeing that Tang Ruowang didn't mean to blame him, the boy boldly said, "Who would like that person."
"What don't you like about him?" asked the priest.
"En...he, him." The boy felt that Huang Xuanjin hated a lot, but he really wanted to say something but couldn't say it for a while. The priests who betrayed the three surnamed house slaves must know it themselves, and Huangxuan Jin's treason and collusion had little to do with him, and it didn't bother him, so he thought for a long time and said, "I don't like his name! How could someone be called that name?"
"But he didn't come up with his own name." The priest said a little funny.
"Then I hate it too! How could someone be surnamed 'Huang'?"
"His surname is 'Huangxuan', which is a very honorable surname in Donghuang."
"Is it more honorable than Flamel?" The boy felt that Master Yilier's family was the most honorable family he knew.With the alchemist Le Bon Flamel as the ancestor, it has been relied on by the Vannes royal family for generations.
"It's more than that." Tang Ruowang said.
"how can that be possible?"
"Do you want to hear it?"
"En!" The boy's age is exactly the age when he likes to listen to stories.
"It was exactly 800 years ago..." Tang Ruowang and the boy took the gift to be given to the queen and walked slowly in the corridor of the Holy Rose Palace.
"Stop, stop! Let you talk about the Huangxuan family, how can it be 800 years ago?" The boy interrupted Tang Ruowang.
"But if you want to talk about the Qing Huangxuan family, you have to start from 800 years ago." Tang Ruowang smiled, and the white priest's robe on his body was illuminated by the skylight coming through the narrow window.
"Okay, then go ahead and talk. After you finish speaking, 800 years must pass."
"800 years ago was the end of the period of the 24 kingdoms of Donghuang. In just 200 years since the demise of the previous dynasty, 24 countries and hundreds of emperors have appeared successively."
And the last years of the 24 kingdoms are also called the Xuanniao period, because in the end, after countless battles, there were only five emperors left, and these five emperors went to the mountain banquet together.
But at the end of the banquet, when the emperors formed an alliance, a mysterious bird came to the world.
The Mysterious Bird of Destiny, descended to give birth to Shang.
Everyone thinks this is a sign that the emperor who will rule the world and sweep Liuhe will come out of these five emperors.
So the troubled times after this mountain repair banquet were called the Xuanniao period, and these five emperors were also called the Xuanniao Five Emperors.
Among the Xuanniao Five Emperors at that time, there was Ji Qianzhong, the emperor Zuoyin who was talented and strategic, who planned to rule the world; Emperor Zhaoming, who was virtuous and loved the world, who valued talent and virtue, and Li Duanhu, who was jealous, assertive and unscrupulous.
But in the end, it was a weak scholar who won the world, that is, Emperor Cangwu, the Tai | Zu | Ye of the Dachen Dynasty.
When everyone talks about Emperor Cangwu's fortune, they start with that glimpse in Jinling City.
At that time, Emperor Cangwu was just an unappreciated literati, listening to books in Jinling City, telling the story of the last emperor of the previous dynasty who vowed to defend the city to the death.
The storyteller said that although the former emperor lost the world, he did not lose the dignity of the emperor.
But a fisherman raised his burden casually and said: "It is the emperor's job to keep the common people alive in troubled times. The rest is nonsense."
That glance made Emperor Cangwu remember a fisherman in Jinling City, but this fisherman was the later Founding Duke.
Later, the founding father accompanied Emperor Cangwu to break the tiger prison and take Jizhou back. It was the night talk at Xuanhu Temple that later generations of literati had said a thousand times, and the founding father stayed outside the temple alone.
Later, Emperor Cangwu received Zhou Ding and added Jiuxi.
Became the great|ancestor|father of the Dachen Dynasty.
And Emperor Cangwu, thinking of the friendship of the founding father for him, gave him the surname-Huangxuan, and authorized him not to kneel when he saw the emperor.
The emperor is the feather crown, and the porch is the emperor's driver.
This is how the word "Huangxuan" came about, but if you want to hear the story of "Huangxuan's family", you have to go on.
The troubled times are over, but the battle for the throne will never end.
At the beginning of the national fortune, it is the time when the dragon spirit first rises.Emperor Cangwu had fourteen sons, and no one knew who the second emperor of the Dachen Dynasty was.
But none of these fourteen sons is more romantic than the son of the Founding Duke——Huangxuan Qichen.
Huangxuan Qiechen went to Mobei with his father at the age of 13, became the Xiongnu at the age of 15, conquered the Nanman at the age of 16, and became a prince at the age of 17.
After returning to Beijing, this little duke did not change his arrogance, and was very flamboyant.
He is arrogant and arrogant, even the emperor doesn't care about him.
He and the famous prostitutes in the capital were all close friends. At that time, there was a saying in Beijing - don't marry a prince, don't marry a king, only marry Huang Xuanlang of the capital.
The ruling and opposition parties are scrambling to get acquainted with him, but he only plays with the ones he likes, and rejects all the ones he doesn't like.
The emperor's fourteen sons all wanted to win him over, and some even said that even if he proclaimed himself emperor, it would be more than enough, but in the end he chose the most unfavored emperor's seventh son, Long Qingming.
Long Qingming is the daughter of Emperor Cangwu and the shaman of Chu. The beautiful shaman came late at night when Emperor Cangwu attacked her country and offered to sacrifice herself to Emperor Cangwu. Assassinate Emperor Cangwu.
So that Long Qingming lived in Yeyouting until he was 15 years old. It was not until the 16-year-old Emperor Cangwu remembered that he still had such a son before releasing him and giving him a title.
Later generations said that Emperor Qingming held three osmanthus feasts in his life.
The first osmanthus banquet was the first meeting between him and Huangxuan Qiechen.
That year's Osmanthus banquet was held at the Huangxuan and the dust was covered in moon-white cloud brocade. When I was drunk, I went to the pavilion to meet the clouds. When I was deeply drunk, I suddenly saw a blue hair tie falling into the water.
So Huangxuan Qiechen, who was dressed in a wild and flamboyant body, jumped directly from Jieyun Pavilion into the Qinglian Pond, and picked up the hair tie.
After getting the headband, Huang Xuan and Chen shouted in the large green lotus: "Which girl's hair tie! I want the girl to redeem it with her body!"
But what reached out was a man's hand.
Huangxuan and Chen looked up, and it was the emperor's seventh son, Long Qingming.
A glimpse in the city of Jinling shows that the founding father conquered the world for Emperor Cangwu.
With a glimpse at the osmanthus banquet, Huang Xuan and Chen handed over the throne to Long Qingming.
But Emperor Qingming is not Emperor Cangwu after all, the Seventh Son of Dragon, who grew up in Yeyouting for 15 years, is suspicious and cunning, and has always been suspicious of Huangxuan and Chenchen.
What's more, he may have the right to not kneel in the imperial palace, every time in the court, only the little prince stands arrogantly among the worshiping officials, with a smile on his mouth.
So Emperor Qingming withdrew his troops several times and changed his generals. As long as Huangxuan and Chen sent troops outside, he could not sleep at night.
When Huangxuan Qiechen was 20 years old, Emperor Qingming married his younger sister to Huangxuan Qiechen.
But at the wedding banquet, Emperor Qingming hastily summoned Huangxuan and Chen into the palace with twelve imperial edicts.
Later, Huangxuan and Chen were sent to Weichen Temple to recuperate in the name of recuperating.
But Huangxuan Qichen is not a bird that can be kept in a cage after all.
After Huangxuan Qiechen lived in the temple for half a year, the case of Mingyue Hegu happened that shocked the whole Jianghu.
To talk about the case of Mingyue Hegu, we must first start with Mingyue Hegu.
That was Emperor Qingming's second Osmanthus Banquet, on the [-]th month, all the officials watched the moon, drank wine and wrote poems in front of Zichen Hall.
But the people in the Jianghu at that time were used to changing the emperor every day in troubled times, using military force to break the ban, and relying on themselves to be free.
That year at the Osmanthus Banquet, a beggar named Li strayed into the Taiyuan Palace, stole a pot of wine from the Osmanthus Banquet, and got drunk on the roof of the Zichen Palace.
After he was drunk for a while, he looked down and saw that thousands of Xuan Ge soldiers pointed their longbows at the Zichen Palace.
Beggar Li looked at the crowd as if they were going to shoot the sky with their bows, but he didn't know if they were going to shoot the moon down or what.
So he leaned out half of his body and asked everyone:
"This bright moon—what's wrong with you?"
Emperor Qingming was about to wave his hand to let the crowd shoot down this beggar who didn't know the heights of heaven and earth, when Huangxuan Qiechen, dressed in moon-white cloud brocade clothes, walked out of the heavily guarded Xuange army, and carried a pot of Huadiao wine to the Zichen Hall. .
When passing by Emperor Qingming, he said to Emperor Qingming, "Your Majesty, Mingyue is so innocent."
After pouring a pot of wine for that beggar Li, Huangxuan Qiechen invited Emperor Qingming to watch the moon together.
So that night, on the top of Zichen Hall.
A beggar, an emperor, and the most romantic son in the world.
Watching the moon and drinking.
But the root of the disaster is still buried, and Emperor Qingming has already murdered this Jianghu.
In March of the following year, the prestigious Quxi Lu family was found out to have attempted rebellion, and a hundred people were killed by Conglongqi sword.
Lu Yinxi, the second son of the Lu family, led dozens of retainers into the Taiyuan Palace, and finally fought to one person, in front of the Zichen Palace, shouting with blood all over his body:
"What's wrong with Mingyue!"
How innocent is the bright moon, how innocent are the rivers and lakes!
So that case became the Mingyue Hegu case.
But for Emperor Qingming, if he violated the ban with military force, he would be punished by death.
But when he was about to use iron cavalry to break through the rivers and lakes, Huang Xuan and Chen stood up again.
The flirtatious young man asked himself to guard the rivers and lakes for the emperor's family, and he would never enter Chang'an for life.
Hundreds of thousands of soldiers were willing to follow Huang Xuan and Chen, but Huang Xuan and Chen said that he came to this Jianghu to guard, not to kill.
Then he voluntarily broke his arm to practice swordsmanship.
He overwhelmed the rivers and lakes with his wildness, and kept the rivers and lakes with his recklessness.
Then he established the Huangxuan family in Jinling.
The Huangxuan family guards the rivers and lakes, the community, Donghuang, and the common people!
Towering my Huangxuan, I vow to guard my mountains and rivers.
"Afterwards, the Huangxuan family guarded Donghuang for 800 years." Tang Ruowang said slowly, and the two had already reached the top floor of the Holy Rose Palace. "Finished?" the boy asked.
"It's over."
"But you only said one beginning," said the boy.
"It is enough for some stories to have a beginning, and there is no difference between the beginning and the ending." Tang Ruowang said with a smile on his lips.
"The 800-year story is over so quickly?"
Tang Ruowang nodded, yes, the rise and fall of 800 years is enough for a journey.
The boy followed Tang Ruowang to the gate of the Council Hall carved with double-branched roses. The sunlight through the colored narrow windows shone mottled and blurred on the ground.
"Then why didn't Huangxuan Jin go back?" the boy asked suddenly.
"Where are you going back?"
"The Huangxuan family! The Huangxuan family is so powerful, why doesn't Huangxuan Jin go back?"
"Huangxuan's family?" Tang Ruowang stood in the shadow in front of the gate of the Council Hall engraved with a coat of arms with double roses, and even the mottled sky did not fall on him, "The Huangxuan's family...is long gone."
His voice was very soft, like a sigh that was annihilated in this huge palace.
Huang Xuanjin slept for a long time, and after waking up, Isabel was no longer in the bedroom.
He put on the clothes on the ground and went out.
The Gullweger Square in front of the Holy Rosary King's Hall was paved with white stone bricks, and Huang Xuanjin walked on those stone bricks a little sleepily.
Suddenly, he seemed to hear someone calling him behind him.
"—Young Master Jin, please walk slowly!"
Huang Xuanjin froze in place.
Young Master Ember?It seemed like it had been a long time since anyone had called him that.
It's been so long... Even he himself almost forgot that tens of thousands of people used to call him that.
That person walked over slowly, Huang Xuanjin turned around.
It was Tang Ruowang, a monk from Vana.
Although he could only be regarded as a priest, Huang Xuanjin knew that he was actually one of the Queen's most important cabinet ministers.
Before the second twilight battle that year, he had been ordered by the queen to negotiate with Huangxuan Jin on the huge Donghuang steam keel ship Tai No. [-], trying to know what the Huangxuan family meant.
Except for that one time, Huang Xuanjin had never seen him again.
His real name is Adam John, and Tang Ruowang is his name in Donghuang.
After the second twilight battle, Emperor Changgeng of Donghuang also realized the importance of steam machinery to the country's destiny, so he began to invest a lot of money in the Shaofu Supervisor and General Supervisor.
And Tang Ruowang went to Donghuang as a priest, was awarded the title of doctor Guanglu, and worked in Qin Tianjian.
Now the queen has called Tang Ruowang back to Vana, fearing that Vana's world will really change.
Seeing Tang Ruowang, Huang Xuanjin didn't speak, but looked up and down at him with half-opened eyes.
Tang Ruowang was accompanied by a thirteen or fourteen-year-old boy, who didn't look very clever, holding a red sandalwood box in his hand.
Even in Donghuang, red sandalwood is a good thing, more expensive than gold.
Huang Xuanjin was a little curious about what was in the red sandalwood box.
"I haven't seen you for many years, but Young Master Jin still remembers me." Tang Ruowang was dressed in a white priest's robe, with his hands clasped in front of his body. When he said the three words, Young Master Jin, he spoke with humility, like the person in front of him. The young man is still the young master of the Jiangnan Huangxuan family who holds power.
Huang Xuanjin nodded his head up and down, "I remember."
But it's just an impression, I can't say anything else, even he forgot what Tang Ruowang said to him on the Tai No. [-] back then.
"I went to the Guards just now and failed to find Young Master Jin. I thought I would never meet Young Master Jin today. Fortunately, I met him here." Tang Ruowang said with a smile on his lips, and his smile was not offensive.
"You looking for me?" Huang Xuanjin frowned.
"I brought a small gift from Donghuang for Young Master Jin." Tang Ruowang looked at the boy beside him, and asked the boy to pass the red sandalwood box to Huangxuan Jin.
"Here, here you are." The boy said angrily, he was with the priest after Father Tang Ruowang returned to Varna this time.Although it's only been two days, he still likes Father Tang Ruowang very much.
Father Tang Ruowang didn't know what Huangxuan Jin was, but he did.
This guy was a family slave of the three surnames who used to treason and collaborate with the enemy, and now he came out of the queen's bedroom, and he didn't look like a good thing.
Huang Xuanjin didn't seem to care about the boy's unreasonableness, and opened the red sandalwood box.
Inside the box is a scarlet gold brocade robe.
Yunjin is an official brocade woven by the Brocade Bureau, which was established by Emperor Baiyu himself in Jinling during the 24 Kingdoms period.
It takes several years for dozens of first-class embroiderers from the brocade department to weave a piece of brocade.
For 800 years in Donghuang, only the royal family and Huangxuan family could enjoy brocade, because Huangxuan loved wearing brocade, and Emperor Qingming even authorized Huangxuan to wear brocade in Dangui Banquet.
Among the officials wearing crimson and purple official uniforms with gold and silver fish bags, Duhuangxuan was dressed in moon-white cloud brocade, like a good man.
Huang Xuanjin slowly picked up the brocade robe, on which a crane that was about to fly was embroidered with fine gold and silver threads.
——Heming in Jiugao, the sound is heard in the wild.
"Send me?" Huangxuanjin smiled with the corner of his mouth raised, and looked up at Tang Ruowang.
"I got it by chance, and only Young Master Jin can match this red suit." Tang Ruowang bowed his head and said almost respectfully.
Huang Xuanjin twirled the cloud brocade robe with his fingers, it was as cool as sapphire and as slippery as smoke.
He half-opened his eyes and turned his head to look at Tang Ruowang, and said in a low voice, "Father is really a coincidence. Now only the royal family in Donghuang can use this brocade."
"Young Master Jin doesn't intend to accept this small gift?" Tang Ruowang asked.
"Yes, of course." Huang Xuanjin smiled and said, "I don't want a gift from someone."
Then he picked up the scarlet embroidered crane brocade robe from the red sandalwood box, and put it on his shoulders.
Scarlet robes fell from his shoulders.
"There's nothing else, I'll leave first." Huang Xuanjin said.
"Young Master Jin, let's go." Tang Ruowang bowed slowly.
Huang Xuanjin waved his hands, turned around and left with the scarlet embroidered crane robe on his body.
Tang Ruowang looked at the young man's back, the scarlet cloud brocade robe hanging down seemed to be burning on the young man's back.
It is true that Tang Ruowang and Huang Xuanjin have only met once.
But sometimes a lot of things can be decided on one side.
That year, he was ordered by the queen to go to the huge keel boat floating on the sea to meet the young master Jin of the Huangxuan family in the south of the Yangtze River.
He was led into the long and deep corridor. Donghuang people were not used to using kerosene lamps. The light inside the boat was dim, and the silver candles burning on the copper lamps illuminated the nanmu floor.
Leading in front of him was Bi Fang, a retainer of the Huangxuan family.
The Huangxuan family is the most honorable clan in Donghuang apart from the royal family.
Daughters of the Huangxuan family have always been more honorable than princesses, because they will become queens in the end.
Over the past 800 years, the Huangxuan family has produced hundreds of queens and concubines.
When he came, he thought: What a pity, there is only one Huangxuan Jin in this generation of Huangxuan's family.
He heard that Young Master Jhin was called Donghuang's Divine Phoenix Bird, and it was an auspicious beast that could only appear in the prosperous age.
Divine Phoenix bird, seeing it will bring peace to the world.
But it's a pity that today's Donghuang has long been decayed, and this Divine Phoenix Bird is probably born in the wrong era.

Donghuang naturally also had a prosperous age, but that was also 500 years ago.
500 years ago was Donghuang's period of flowing fire, and the Emperor Liuhuo who inherited the century-old fortune of the Dachen Dynasty pushed Donghuang to the pinnacle of prosperity!
In the city of Chang'an, the flags are like clouds, and the city is connected by hundreds of miles, and the official horses run on Zhuque Street.Goulan is lit like day and night, and huge lights turn in turns.
Valuable porcelain and silk were sold in the eastern and western markets.
Even in the west land, many people went to Chang'an through the camel bell ancient road, and they were called Semu people by Donghuang people.
And in that prosperous age, the woman who was mentioned the most was the woman who spent the entire prosperous age supporting her——Princess Wangyue.
Looking at the moon is the moon looking at the sun.
It is the best and roundest moon.
But it's a loss when it's full.
The Yinghuo Rebellion started because of her, and the five kings led one hundred thousand soldiers to the city of Chang'an, but the woman committed suicide before the bell tower and fell to the yellow brick tower.
When she died, Donghuang's prosperity would be over.
Those prosperous times, that woman is a thing of the past.
Tang Ruowang walked in the corridor of the keel boat, looking at this declining empire, this 800-year-old clan with some regret.
And the door carved with taotie patterns slowly opened in front of him.
Nine candle lamps illuminated the dimly lit lobby, and the cloud brocade curtains hanging on the floor surrounded the incense burner and the fireworks of the silver candles.
The maids holding the gilded bronze lotus lanterns slowly dispersed like the tide, and the young master Jin of the Huangxuan family who was sitting in the half-light and half-darkness slowly raised his eyes to look at him.
He still can't explain that look clearly, aloof and noble, but with the prosperity and noise of the prosperous age.
At that moment, he seemed to feel that those porcelain merchants and tea dealers had dispersed, and that the ancient and glorious empire slowly revealed a gap in front of him.
From that gap, there is a bright moon and sky, eight hundred miles of prosperity, and the prosperous Donghuang.
And he's just a snooper.
During the Shang and Zhou dynasties, the bronze chime bells rang in unison, the celadon that had just been released from the cellar slowly opened in the wind, and the first snow in Chang'an City covered the palaces hundreds of miles away.
The prosperous world is brilliant and majestic.
...But it was just a glance after all.
The young master Jhin was wearing a scarlet brocade robe embroidered with the Divine Phoenix bird, a black black leather sword belt was tied around his waist, and his long legs wrapped in dark brocade boots were folded under the scarlet embroidered robe.
The boy didn't speak but just looked at him.
And he put his right hand in front of his chest, and slowly bowed to that young master Jin.
He still remembers the beating of his heart under the palm of his hand as he saluted.
The saluting boy just nodded his head slightly, his eyes half closed.
Later, he went to Chang'an and met the emperor of Donghuang. The Changgeng emperor was sitting on the dragon chair, with dark eyes hidden behind the crown, receiving the worship of all the officials.
The emperor forced Vana's envoys to kneel down in the posture of heaven | facing the kingdom.
But what he remembered was the slight nod of the young master Jin on the keel boat back then.
He originally thought that he would have seen Donghuang's prosperity only after going to Chang'an, but later he realized that he had already seen Donghuang's prosperity back then.
Tang Ruowang looked at the back of the young man wearing the scarlet embroidered crane and cloud brocade dress, Huangxuan Jin bumped into the pillars of Guerweger Square as if he hadn't woken up, and then looked at the pillars with some complaints, as if he was blaming the pillars Why is it here, and then changed direction and continued to walk forward half asleep.
Tang Ruowang put his right hand on his heart and bowed slowly.
Just like when he first met that boy back then.
Respectful and full of humility.
Once some things are too amazing at the first glance, you can't blame him no matter how he declines in the future, and if you look at it again, you are still willing to salute respectfully and humbly like a courtier.
Just like the boy back then.
Just like that prosperous age back then.
"Father, why are you so respectful to that Huangxuan Jin?" The boy holding the empty box asked a little confused.
"Have you ever been to Donghuang?" The priest straightened up, but still watched the young man's back.
"No." The boy shook his head, not understanding why the priest asked him this.
"That young man is worth half of Donghuang's prosperous age."
06
"Let's go, go back to the car and get the gift for Her Majesty the Queen." Tang Ruowang said to the boy beside him after watching the boy's back disappear at the gate of the palace.
"Father, how can you give the gift to that guy first? You have to send it to the Queen first." The boy muttered.
"What? You don't like Huangxuan Jin." The priest asked with a smile on his lips.
Seeing that Tang Ruowang didn't mean to blame him, the boy boldly said, "Who would like that person."
"What don't you like about him?" asked the priest.
"En...he, him." The boy felt that Huang Xuanjin hated a lot, but he really wanted to say something but couldn't say it for a while. The priests who betrayed the three surnamed house slaves must know it themselves, and Huangxuan Jin's treason and collusion had little to do with him, and it didn't bother him, so he thought for a long time and said, "I don't like his name! How could someone be called that name?"
"But he didn't come up with his own name." The priest said a little funny.
"Then I hate it too! How could someone be surnamed 'Huang'?"
"His surname is 'Huangxuan', which is a very honorable surname in Donghuang."
"Is it more honorable than Flamel?" The boy felt that Master Yilier's family was the most honorable family he knew.With the alchemist Le Bon Flamel as the ancestor, it has been relied on by the Vannes royal family for generations.
"It's more than that." Tang Ruowang said.
"how can that be possible?"
"Do you want to hear it?"
"En!" The boy's age is exactly the age when he likes to listen to stories.
"It was exactly 800 years ago..." Tang Ruowang and the boy took the gift to be given to the queen and walked slowly in the corridor of the Holy Rose Palace.
"Stop, stop! Let you talk about the Huangxuan family, how can it be 800 years ago?" The boy interrupted Tang Ruowang.
"But if you want to talk about the Qing Huangxuan family, you have to start from 800 years ago." Tang Ruowang smiled, and the white priest's robe on his body was illuminated by the skylight coming through the narrow window.
"Okay, then go ahead and talk. After you finish speaking, 800 years must pass."
"800 years ago was the end of the period of the 24 kingdoms of Donghuang. In just 200 years since the demise of the previous dynasty, 24 countries and hundreds of emperors have appeared successively."
And the last years of the 24 kingdoms are also called the Xuanniao period, because in the end, after countless battles, there were only five emperors left, and these five emperors went to the mountain banquet together.
But at the end of the banquet, when the emperors formed an alliance, a mysterious bird came to the world.
The Mysterious Bird of Destiny, descended to give birth to Shang.
Everyone thinks this is a sign that the emperor who will rule the world and sweep Liuhe will come out of these five emperors.
So the troubled times after this mountain repair banquet were called the Xuanniao period, and these five emperors were also called the Xuanniao Five Emperors.
Among the Xuanniao Five Emperors at that time, there was Ji Qianzhong, the emperor Zuoyin who was talented and strategic, who planned to rule the world; Emperor Zhaoming, who was virtuous and loved the world, who valued talent and virtue, and Li Duanhu, who was jealous, assertive and unscrupulous.
But in the end, it was a weak scholar who won the world, that is, Emperor Cangwu, the Tai | Zu | Ye of the Dachen Dynasty.
When everyone talks about Emperor Cangwu's fortune, they start with that glimpse in Jinling City.
At that time, Emperor Cangwu was just an unappreciated literati, listening to books in Jinling City, telling the story of the last emperor of the previous dynasty who vowed to defend the city to the death.
The storyteller said that although the former emperor lost the world, he did not lose the dignity of the emperor.
But a fisherman raised his burden casually and said: "It is the emperor's job to keep the common people alive in troubled times. The rest is nonsense."
That glance made Emperor Cangwu remember a fisherman in Jinling City, but this fisherman was the later Founding Duke.
Later, the founding father accompanied Emperor Cangwu to break the tiger prison and take Jizhou back. It was the night talk at Xuanhu Temple that later generations of literati had said a thousand times, and the founding father stayed outside the temple alone.
Later, Emperor Cangwu received Zhou Ding and added Jiuxi.
Became the great|ancestor|father of the Dachen Dynasty.
And Emperor Cangwu, thinking of the friendship of the founding father for him, gave him the surname-Huangxuan, and authorized him not to kneel when he saw the emperor.
The emperor is the feather crown, and the porch is the emperor's driver.
This is how the word "Huangxuan" came about, but if you want to hear the story of "Huangxuan's family", you have to go on.
The troubled times are over, but the battle for the throne will never end.
At the beginning of the national fortune, it is the time when the dragon spirit first rises.Emperor Cangwu had fourteen sons, and no one knew who the second emperor of the Dachen Dynasty was.
But none of these fourteen sons is more romantic than the son of the Founding Duke——Huangxuan Qichen.
Huangxuan Qiechen went to Mobei with his father at the age of 13, became the Xiongnu at the age of 15, conquered the Nanman at the age of 16, and became a prince at the age of 17.
After returning to Beijing, this little duke did not change his arrogance, and was very flamboyant.
He is arrogant and arrogant, even the emperor doesn't care about him.
He and the famous prostitutes in the capital were all close friends. At that time, there was a saying in Beijing - don't marry a prince, don't marry a king, only marry Huang Xuanlang of the capital.
The ruling and opposition parties are scrambling to get acquainted with him, but he only plays with the ones he likes, and rejects all the ones he doesn't like.
The emperor's fourteen sons all wanted to win him over, and some even said that even if he proclaimed himself emperor, it would be more than enough, but in the end he chose the most unfavored emperor's seventh son, Long Qingming.
Long Qingming is the daughter of Emperor Cangwu and the shaman of Chu. The beautiful shaman came late at night when Emperor Cangwu attacked her country and offered to sacrifice herself to Emperor Cangwu. Assassinate Emperor Cangwu.
So that Long Qingming lived in Yeyouting until he was 15 years old. It was not until the 16-year-old Emperor Cangwu remembered that he still had such a son before releasing him and giving him a title.
Later generations said that Emperor Qingming held three osmanthus feasts in his life.
The first osmanthus banquet was the first meeting between him and Huangxuan Qiechen.
That year's Osmanthus banquet was held at the Huangxuan and the dust was covered in moon-white cloud brocade. When I was drunk, I went to the pavilion to meet the clouds. When I was deeply drunk, I suddenly saw a blue hair tie falling into the water.
So Huangxuan Qiechen, who was dressed in a wild and flamboyant body, jumped directly from Jieyun Pavilion into the Qinglian Pond, and picked up the hair tie.
After getting the headband, Huang Xuan and Chen shouted in the large green lotus: "Which girl's hair tie! I want the girl to redeem it with her body!"
But what reached out was a man's hand.
Huangxuan and Chen looked up, and it was the emperor's seventh son, Long Qingming.
A glimpse in the city of Jinling shows that the founding father conquered the world for Emperor Cangwu.
With a glimpse at the osmanthus banquet, Huang Xuan and Chen handed over the throne to Long Qingming.
But Emperor Qingming is not Emperor Cangwu after all, the Seventh Son of Dragon, who grew up in Yeyouting for 15 years, is suspicious and cunning, and has always been suspicious of Huangxuan and Chenchen.
What's more, he may have the right to not kneel in the imperial palace, every time in the court, only the little prince stands arrogantly among the worshiping officials, with a smile on his mouth.
So Emperor Qingming withdrew his troops several times and changed his generals. As long as Huangxuan and Chen sent troops outside, he could not sleep at night.
When Huangxuan Qiechen was 20 years old, Emperor Qingming married his younger sister to Huangxuan Qiechen.
But at the wedding banquet, Emperor Qingming hastily summoned Huangxuan and Chen into the palace with twelve imperial edicts.
Later, Huangxuan and Chen were sent to Weichen Temple to recuperate in the name of recuperating.
But Huangxuan Qichen is not a bird that can be kept in a cage after all.
After Huangxuan Qiechen lived in the temple for half a year, the case of Mingyue Hegu happened that shocked the whole Jianghu.
To talk about the case of Mingyue Hegu, we must first start with Mingyue Hegu.
That was Emperor Qingming's second Osmanthus Banquet, on the [-]th month, all the officials watched the moon, drank wine and wrote poems in front of Zichen Hall.
But the people in the Jianghu at that time were used to changing the emperor every day in troubled times, using military force to break the ban, and relying on themselves to be free.
That year at the Osmanthus Banquet, a beggar named Li strayed into the Taiyuan Palace, stole a pot of wine from the Osmanthus Banquet, and got drunk on the roof of the Zichen Palace.
After he was drunk for a while, he looked down and saw that thousands of Xuan Ge soldiers pointed their longbows at the Zichen Palace.
Beggar Li looked at the crowd as if they were going to shoot the sky with their bows, but he didn't know if they were going to shoot the moon down or what.
So he leaned out half of his body and asked everyone:
"This bright moon—what's wrong with you?"
Emperor Qingming was about to wave his hand to let the crowd shoot down this beggar who didn't know the heights of heaven and earth, when Huangxuan Qiechen, dressed in moon-white cloud brocade clothes, walked out of the heavily guarded Xuange army, and carried a pot of Huadiao wine to the Zichen Hall. .
When passing by Emperor Qingming, he said to Emperor Qingming, "Your Majesty, Mingyue is so innocent."
After pouring a pot of wine for that beggar Li, Huangxuan Qiechen invited Emperor Qingming to watch the moon together.
So that night, on the top of Zichen Hall.
A beggar, an emperor, and the most romantic son in the world.
Watching the moon and drinking.
But the root of the disaster is still buried, and Emperor Qingming has already murdered this Jianghu.
In March of the following year, the prestigious Quxi Lu family was found out to have attempted rebellion, and a hundred people were killed by Conglongqi sword.
Lu Yinxi, the second son of the Lu family, led dozens of retainers into the Taiyuan Palace, and finally fought to one person, in front of the Zichen Palace, shouting with blood all over his body:
"What's wrong with Mingyue!"
How innocent is the bright moon, how innocent are the rivers and lakes!
So that case became the Mingyue Hegu case.
But for Emperor Qingming, if he violated the ban with military force, he would be punished by death.
But when he was about to use iron cavalry to break through the rivers and lakes, Huang Xuan and Chen stood up again.
The flirtatious young man asked himself to guard the rivers and lakes for the emperor's family, and he would never enter Chang'an for life.
Hundreds of thousands of soldiers were willing to follow Huang Xuan and Chen, but Huang Xuan and Chen said that he came to this Jianghu to guard, not to kill.
Then he voluntarily broke his arm to practice swordsmanship.
He overwhelmed the rivers and lakes with his wildness, and kept the rivers and lakes with his recklessness.
Then he established the Huangxuan family in Jinling.
The Huangxuan family guards the rivers and lakes, the community, Donghuang, and the common people!
Towering my Huangxuan, I vow to guard my mountains and rivers.
"Afterwards, the Huangxuan family guarded Donghuang for 800 years." Tang Ruowang said slowly, and the two had already reached the top floor of the Holy Rose Palace. "Finished?" the boy asked.
"It's over."
"But you only said one beginning," said the boy.
"It is enough for some stories to have a beginning, and there is no difference between the beginning and the ending." Tang Ruowang said with a smile on his lips.
"The 800-year story is over so quickly?"
Tang Ruowang nodded, yes, the rise and fall of 800 years is enough for a journey.
The boy followed Tang Ruowang to the gate of the Council Hall carved with double-branched roses. The sunlight through the colored narrow windows shone mottled and blurred on the ground.
"Then why didn't Huangxuan Jin go back?" the boy asked suddenly.
"Where are you going back?"
"The Huangxuan family! The Huangxuan family is so powerful, why doesn't Huangxuan Jin go back?"
"Huangxuan's family?" Tang Ruowang stood in the shadow in front of the gate of the Council Hall engraved with a coat of arms with double roses, and even the mottled sky did not fall on him, "The Huangxuan's family...is long gone."
His voice was very soft, like a sigh that was annihilated in this huge palace.
