A world of glory

Chapter 26 Zhengming Temple meets an old scholar by chance...

Qin Yi got out of the car and saw that the front door was wide open, and there was a plaque on the door with the words "Zhengming Temple" in a big book, which was written by Lord Hou.Speaking of which, this temple was originally built by the old Houye, but after the establishment of the new dynasty, the old Houye won the hereditary title. Now that there is an ancestral hall, the temple was handed over to the public, and it was just a gift of incense. , Still handed over to this temple.

A long line had formed in front of the temple gate. Those people had shabby clothes, patch after patch, holding bowls in their hands, and they all looked out at the vat of porridge.There are also some passers-by who are resting around. Seeing this scene, they are also watching from the sidelines, but they don't come forward.Qin Yi stepped forward and took a closer look, and saw that the porridge in the bowls of the victims was extremely thick even though vegetables were added.Then he found an old man resting his feet and asked, "How many days has porridge been served here?" The old man was smoking a hookah, when he heard Qin Yi's question, he knocked on the pot and said slowly, "It must have been two or three days. " Qin Yi asked with a smile again: "Why is it already afternoon, are you still serving porridge?" The old man listened, glanced at Qin Yi, saw that Qin Yi was covered in silk, and said: "That is the man Jing Pinghou The mansion is kind-hearted, giving out [-] barrels a day, until all are gone. Not only porridge, but also people in the bamboo pavilion in front of the house donated medicines to the hospital. Now it is drought and barren. I don’t know how many lives have been saved. They are really kind-hearted people. "After hearing what the old man said, Qin Yi couldn't continue to ask.

Then he returned to the carriage and saw that although there were a few servants in green clothes in front of the temple gate, they were all busy giving porridge, so it was inconvenient to disturb them. He also saw the white stone path on the other side, looked at the lush greenery from afar, and smiled. He ordered Danqing to say, "I won't go in. You can watch here. If there is a shortage of manpower at the family temple, go and help." Danqing and others agreed.

Qin Yi only followed the Baishi trail all the way up the mountainside.Along the way, he saw the mountain flowers blooming, the green shade everywhere, and the sound of water gurgling in the distance. Qin Yi only looked for the sound and went out of a forest. backlash.The ancients in front of the waterfall don't know what generation they are, but they built a pavilion with flying horns, covered with green vines and green moss, mottled and wrapped around, surrounded by pavilions and lined with flowers and trees.Looking from a distance, there are still one or two tourists in the pavilion, dressed as scholars in a trance, and I don't know if they are reciting poems or composing fu.

Qin Yi liked the quietness of this place, and since he hadn't seen the waterfall for a long time, he went to the pavilion.After walking more than ten steps, Qin Yi saw the real thing. There was a scholar in green clothes sitting leaning against the railing in the pavilion, well-dressed, and beside him was a boy with drooping temples, cooking tea and fanning the fire.Qin Yi vaguely felt that the scribe's back was somewhat familiar, but he couldn't remember where he saw it, so he could only walk forward quickly.When he arrived at the right side of the pavilion, he happened to say a joke to the boy, and the scribe looked back and smiled, but it was Qi Xuan.

Qi Xuan turned his head and smiled, and was about to speak, but saw a person coming from the side of the pavilion, dressed in a gorgeous crown, elegant and gentle, looking carefully, he was an old friend whom he had met a few days ago.Then he got up and left the pavilion, saluted with a smile, "Brother Qin, you've always been nice." Qin Yi hastily returned the gift, and asked with a smile: "I wanted to visit Brother Qi tomorrow, but I didn't want to meet him today. He laughed again and said: "Brother Qi is really in a good mood to listen to the water and drink tea."

After hearing Qin Yi's words, Qi Xuan only said: "Why is there so much pleasure, but don't stop here." Qin Yi was secretly annoyed when he heard Qi Xuan's answer, but he had made a slip of the tongue, so he froze when he thought about it , the more he thought about it, the more embarrassing he became, his eyes drooped and his expression was gloomy.

"Brother Qin, what's the matter?" Qi Xuan saw Qin Yi standing there blankly, his eyes dimmed. Yi shoulders.

Qin Yimeng came back to his senses, mocked himself secretly, he hadn't interacted with anyone for a long time, he was so anxious and repeated, and acted like a child.He pretended to be relaxed and said: "The day before yesterday, I met Brother Qi in the village. We had a chat for half a day. We had a very happy conversation. It's a pity that we can't talk at night by candlelight. I haven't enjoyed it yet." Qi Xuan said with a smile: "I have nothing to do recently. I was lazy and became addicted. I talked with Brother Qin the day before yesterday, and I felt very happy. Today, I was lucky enough to meet, but it’s not bad for a while." Qin Yi cupped his hands and smiled: "There is a cool breeze and clear spring here, but it is a good place. , why not."

The two entered the pavilion and chatted for a while, Qi Xuan ordered Tong'er to take the chessboard and two lacquered chess boxes out, and wanted to have a talk with Qin Yishou.Although Qin Yi has read a few fragmented books and broken chapters, his talent is mediocre when it comes to chess.Although he held the black stones, he only played dozens of moves, and saw that the number of black stones on the chessboard was getting less and less, so he couldn't help laughing at himself: "If I were a general, I would have become a poor general by now, but I can't be indecisive. "Qi Xuan heard Qin Yi say this, and felt it was funny, so he just said: "Brother Qin has a clever plan, even if he throws away his soldiers, he is also strategizing, and he has other considerations." He glanced at Qin Yi again, and said with a smile: "The day before yesterday Brother Qin, when he talked about good weather, it is not just a decisive victory over thousands of miles. However, today I traveled all the way, but I saw a lot of people fleeing famine in the capital, it is hard to say that the world is peaceful."

Qin Yi frowned slightly when he heard this, and replied, "Brother Qi, you don't know the reason. Speaking of Linzhou and Gaozhou, there was a severe drought in the two places, and the water and food were exhausted. Although the imperial court allocated money and food, it was a drop in the bucket. Due to the continuous use of troops in northern Xinjiang, the treasury is not rich, so although there are signs of drought in the capital, it is not to the point where the fields are dry. Besides, there are many priorities in the capital. Although there are many refugees in the capital, they are seeking blessings There are also quite a few people who sell porridge and medicine, and when the drought in Linzhou and Gaozhou is solved, the things in the capital will naturally disappear."

After hearing this, Qi Xuan smiled helplessly, and said noncommittally: "There is no family in this world who gives porridge or medicine for a lifetime. If the drought in Linzhou and Gaozhou is not resolved, the refugees in the capital will be beggars for a lifetime. "Qin Yi heard this, and felt a little unhappy in his heart. He just thought: "I also want the world to go as expected, but the turmoil in this world makes it difficult for people to have both." After thinking for a while, he sighed: "Brother Qi said Extremely, I just think that the current emperor is not a fatuous king, there were not many people who fled the famine earlier, and no one reported it, but now there are many refugees, there must be rumors from the censor, so the court must have a strategy."

Qi Xuan saw Qin Yi's unhappy expression, and thought that Qin Yi was a child of a noble family after all, and if he continued to talk about the turmoil of the government, he would feel embarrassed, so he said with a smile: "Let's not talk about these, if you continue to entangle, it will be unreasonable to worry about it." Brother Qin can play this game with me, and then make another calculation." Qin Yi was already at the end of his game before, how to play again, he said with a smile: "I am a stinky chess basket, I dare not play again, Brother Qi is very skilled, I will admit defeat." Qi Xuan also laughed when he heard the words, and said directly: "Poetry can make all kinds of phenomena, and chess can eliminate all worries. There is no need to be serious about the outcome, just talk with me for another game." Qin Yi said with a smile: " Although it doesn't matter whether you win or lose, you forget about both wins and losses, but you won't lose your head in vain." After finishing speaking, he smiled slyly and said, "I've forgotten this game for a long time, but if I play five consecutive balls, I won't be able to. I am willing to be called a clumsy player in the world, and accompany me to play a game." While talking and laughing, a pair of handsome eyes, misty and shining, only saw Qi Xuan dazzled by the gods, and he didn't feel moved, and he was secretly amazed in his heart , I only know that Qin Yi is really looking forward to brilliance at this time, which is unforgettable at first sight.After a while, Qi Xuan smiled and said: "It's all right, if you play five consecutive balls, what's the prize?" Qin Yi listened, and only thought carefully, but he didn't know Qi Xuan deeply, so he didn't know. Qi Xuan liked it, so he shook his head and said with a smile: "It's up to me, brother Qi will win the lottery." Qi Xuan chuckled, and didn't care about it, he just cleared up the mess with Qin Yi, and played five consecutive balls again up.

Besides, since Qin Yi went out, Lanyue Nongyun and others have nothing to do, they just relax in the room.Lanyue leaned on the beauty couch under the west screen window, watching the little maids outside the window throwing sachets.Nongyun took the towel fan and went to the inner courtyard.Nongyun just entered the inner courtyard door, and saw Peiyu and Yizhu coming from the west attic, holding hands, and said with a smile, "Why did you get together?" Yizhu said with a smile: " In the past few days, there have been seven things and eight things, and today I was doing sewing, only to find that the material for the clothes has not been picked up, so I have to go to the West Attic again." Nong Yun said with a smile: "Why do you have to go by yourself? It's the same if you ask a little maid to get it. " Just as I was talking, a woman wearing a green blue satin blouse hurried over, seeing Nongyun, holding the moon and the three of them, and said: "Just now the boy at the corner gate came to report , The General’s Mansion sent people to send a few carts of things, I heard that they are all seasonal specialties brought by the Major General from Jiangnan.”

Peiyu laughed and said, "I said that there were many things to do before, but now I can't be free. Who will accompany me to do some work?" Yizhu said with a smile, "I have to go back and do needlework. I'm here to make clouds. It's not ready-made." Manpower." Hearing this, Nong Yun only smiled, and said: "But I don't mind, I don't have to read it if I have anything to do, and when the Major General comes back, he will send something. In terms of speaking, it's the same for the young master. He is very caring." Hearing what Nongyun said, Peiyu smiled and said, "If it is reasonable, the general is just a nephew of the son, and I don't care, but who will go." Several people listened and nodded in agreement.Seeing this, Peiyu smiled at Yizhu and said, "We're busy with our work, so we can't leave you alone. Yesterday, Master ordered some things for Brother Wen, so I'll trouble you to go there, but I don't want to." Yizhu When Zhu heard this, he sneered, covered his face and smiled, and said straightly: "My sister has ordered, why don't you obey." Several people laughed, and then they dispersed.

Peiyu and Nongyun went to the corner gate by themselves, and Yizhu went to the north wing by himself, opened the cabinet, took out a rectangular box filled with lacquered gold and ancient paintings, and was about to go out.But when he saw that the set of twelve white jade zodiac ornaments on the antique shelf was gone, and only one grid was left there, he called the little maid outside the door to come in and asked, "Why is there a blank on the shelf?" lattice?"
