Eastward Flow
Chapter 41
Xuan Jingchen looked at the boy's bandaged hand, and frowned slightly, "Mr. Xiao's hand..."
Hearing this, Zhong Lisuo lowered his eyes and landed on his hand. He pulled his sleeve to block it, and said with a smile, "I got hurt from practicing arrows a while ago. It's not very elegant. Please forgive me, Your Majesty." Chu people cherish their bodies and skin , Messy but not dirty is chic, keeping tidy is manners.If there is a scar on the body, it is a courtesy to cover it up.
Zhong lisuo felt that the injury on his hand was an eyesore, so he kept getting tied up today.
Xuan Jingchen shook his head, and said: "It's not a question of aesthetics, how is Mr. Xiao's hand hurt, and what is it, it's so tightly bandaged, it won't be good if it becomes stuffy and inflamed."
Zhong Lisuo replied: "It's a small injury, but it's a blister that the medical worker picked up on me, and the medicine was applied to my hand." It's a blister, but it's more appropriate to say that it's a blister, after it's broken, it reveals brand new flesh and blood. It looked really scary.
Xuan Jingchen nodded, not talking too much, but remembered this matter in his heart.
After this day's lecture, Xuan Jingchen returned to the palace, and when he saw Officer An, he said, "Where is the ointment sent by the imperial hospital before? Find me a jar."
Sergeant An agreed, and went down to find the ointment His Majesty wanted.After washing up and having dinner, Xuan Jingchen read all the unfinished memorials one by one, and only went to sleep when the time came.
On the morning of the second day, Xuan Jingchen understood what Zhong Lisuo's hand was hurt after hearing what the Minister of Rites said.
"According to the reported assessment of noble youths, we selected two according to their ages. One is the youngest son of the Marquis of Zhenbei, Le Zhengsu, and the other is Xu Renli, the second son of Prime Minister Zuo, who will accompany the son of the barbarian Su He. The son of the Marquis of Zhenbei is very knowledgeable. I heard that he is very good at Subei dialect, and can teach Shizi Qingguo literature. Xu Renli, the son of the Zuo Cheng, is outstanding in martial arts, and he can also learn from his son. This arrangement is the most suitable." Xuan Jingchen couldn't help but feel this long series of words from the Ministry of Rites. Too clear.
The only thing that remained in her mind was the sentence that Zhenbei Hou Shizi is good at barbarian languages.Others may not know it, but Xuan Jingchen knows very well that Prince Zhaoming, who accompanied her, is very proficient in foreign languages.
When the barbarians invaded that year, Emperor Zhao went to find the records about the barbarians, read the original text directly and analyzed the grievances and grievances of various tribes with her.Can this little boy know the barbarian language?
She can play shakuhachi, write various characters, and speak savagely.Your Highness can, what else can she not?
She remembered what she said when she saw Qinglan for the last time, "She looks so similar to His Highness, knows shakuhachi, and has such a pure heart, almost made me see the real person in "Tai Yi Ji" Resurrection."
Why did Qing Lan come to her, and the last time she saw her, she talked about Le Zhengsu?Why are the Tiansi supervisors so close to Le Zhengsu? Is it because of Qing Lan's confession, or for something else.
Xuan Jingchen thought of Le Zhengsu's increasingly similar faces in her mind, the frail young prince overlapping with the sunny young son, a faint thought that floated up made her terrified.
She patiently listened to the words of the courtiers, left Chief Commander Xiang Sinian alone, and asked: "I suddenly remembered something. Before entering the Kingdom of God, Chief Commander Qing Lan once joked with me that Le Zhengsu is The choice of the middle palace. Le Zhengsu is your senior brother. I studied the scriptures with her for a while, and felt that her lectures were no different from others, and she was not so brilliant. Si Nian, why do you recommend her and not others? What are you hiding from me?"
After hearing the queen's words, Xiang Sinian knew that the wise and wise queen had seen through her intentions.And the master had joked about this matter with the queen long ago, and now that it is exposed, there is nothing to worry about.
Xiang Sinian bent down and said to the Queen: "Your Majesty, I am not concealing anything. It is because when the Ministry of Rites asked you to play His Majesty's wedding, my master once calculated all the noble men and women of the right age for Your Majesty, and calculated Lezheng Su Nai is the lord of the Qing Kingdom's Central Palace. I just told my ministers that Jian Tiansi should not report this matter unless His Majesty personally mentioned it."
In fact, the very lazy Qinglan only calculated Le Zhengsu's birthday horoscope, and after discovering the heaven and earth together with the queen, she lied to her apprentice that she had tested many people, and asked Xiang Sinian to do it again. Only then did the selection be made.
There is absolutely no problem with Xiang Sinian's rhetoric.Except when His Majesty asks questions, except for important matters of people's livelihood, Supervisor Tiansi does not need to take the initiative to report.What's more, before that, Xuan Jingchen personally told Qing Lan not to interfere.
In this way, everything about Jiantiansi's actions can be explained clearly.
Jian Tiansi's calculations are rarely wrong, if so, is Le Zhengsu her destined middle palace?Is it possible that a person who is so similar to Emperor Zhao will always be by her side from now on?
If Xuan Jingchen has always been the ruler of the world, then one day Le Zhengsu will become her middle palace.But Xuan Jingchen is no longer the master of the world, Le Zhengsu can also live in the middle palace.This is Donghuang's astrolabe, and the result is doomed, just like a person is destined to die, but the process depends entirely on the individual.
Hearing what Da Si Ming said, Xuan Jingchen was startled, she clenched the armrest of the dragon chair, looked at Xiang Sinian and asked, "Is this true?"
"How dare I lie to Your Majesty? Although Your Majesty did not ask my Supervisor Tiansi, but the little brother found out that he is a rare middle palace who bears the fate of the country. This is beneficial to the Qing Dynasty. I want to build a bridge for the little brother. Only the master, me, and Uncle Feng know about this matter, and now His Majesty knows too." Xiang Sinian said one by one, his tone was sincere and not deceitful.
Xuan Jingchen relaxed slightly, and was about to lean on the armrest, when she heard Xiang Sinian say: "Little senior brother knows nothing, Your Majesty, if you want to blame, you can blame me for making my own decisions. Besides, the little senior brother is indeed very accomplished in scriptures and meanings, this minister is not deceiving His Majesty, please don't be angry."
After her words, Xuan Jingchen, who seldom blamed his courtiers, had nothing to say.She sat on the dragon chair, looking at the solitude of the hall, she just felt that her whole body was soaked in cold water, exuding biting cold.
Knowing the candidate for the big wedding did not make Xuan Jingchen happy at all.
It turned out that her destined partner was not Zhong Lisuo, but someone else.If she really married Le Zhengsu in the future, how would she spend a hundred years with Zhong Lisuo underground.If she abandons the throne and passes it on to others, how will she face Zhong Lisuo who entrusted her with the heavy responsibility?
Either way, it's a problem.At this moment, a clearer question rose in Xuan Jingchen's mind.
Why couldn't Le Zhengsu be Zhong Lisuo?If in this world, there is really a person who was resurrected in Tai Yiji, then is it possible that Le Zhengsu is Zhong Lisuo?
She began to have absurd thoughts, and under her clearly regulated government affairs, confused hopes arose.
Xuan Jingchen didn't blame Xiang Sinian, because everything she did was within the boundaries.People who believe in the Eastern Emperor Taiyi, respect the theory of cause and effect more and more in their hearts, and most of them are good people.Don't ask for what you can't ask for, don't be greedy for what is out of reach, and don't do anything to harm others, the more advanced the practice, the more virtuous a person is.
The commander of Jian Tiansi is even more careful, centering on the emperor who is the incarnation of the Eastern Emperor, carefully maintaining the operation of the mortal belief.
Xuan Jingchen didn't doubt Xiang Sinian's good intentions, just like she didn't believe in Qing Lan but never doubted her belief.Therefore, after Xiang Sinian retired, Xuan Jingchen, who left the court hall, did not start handling government affairs for the first time after returning to the palace. Instead, he opened the heavy "Tai Yi Ji" and found Qinglan carefully read the chapter on the resurrection in her mouth.
Before that, she had heard the story roughly, but hadn't read the scriptures carefully.
The story in "Tai Yi Ji" is about the son of a Wenren surnamed owner of a Houde family in Wanzhou. Because the family did too much good, he received the favor of the Eastern Emperor after his death in vain. On a sick and weak woman of the same age.
The man married a wife and had children before his resurrection, while the reborn sick and weak woman had an unmarried husband.He is grateful for the kindness of his original parents, and he cares about his wife, but he doesn't know what to do when facing his fiancé.It is not that he died and entered the ruins, but his soul is in another body, remembering the things of the previous life, and receiving the grace of others.Troubled, entangled, not knowing what to do.
Fortunately, Tai Taoist persuaded him, saying: "Ashes to ashes, dust to dust, your past life is over, all grievances and grievances are put down with death, even if you remember, you should let go."
In this way, the man let go of his knots, married his fiancé, and started a peaceful and beautiful life.
Xuan Jingchen put down "Tai Yi Ji", only feeling a sense of loss in his heart.The dead are gone, the living don't think about it, and the ties of the world are broken with death.The Taiyi Sect is actually a sect that seems to be sentient, but is also very ruthless.
Death is the end of everything.But emotion, is it something that can die?
What's more, she and Zhong Lisuo are just a couple in name.
With such a sense of loss, Xuan Jingchen went to listen to Zhong Lisuo's lecture as usual.During the meeting, Xuan Jingchen also specially selected the taste of the plaster.When she handed the things to Zhong Lisuo, she looked at the young man's happy face and said with a smile, "Does Your Highness like the taste of cloves?" She used Subei language, if it was Zhong Lisuo, she would definitely be able to hear it Gotta understand.
"I like it." Zhong Lisuo nodded, keenly noticed the address, her heart skipped a beat, and she tentatively said, "Does Your Majesty know barbaric language? I just learned it today. What does "Your Highness" mean?" "She pretended not to understand, and pronounced the sound.
Xuan Jingchen's heart that had been lifted up high was slammed down to the ground.Looking at the innocent face of the young man, she shook her head and said, "I heard from Minister Lezheng that you have been learning barbarian language recently, so I took a test on you just now. The word just now meant son. Why didn't you say that when you were learning how to address him?" Have you learned it?"
Your Highness, the son of a maharaja, the son of a prince can be called His Highness, but in the barbarians, they are often called the son of the world.Zhong Lisuo understood that the title of queen was unintentional, and he didn't understand it correctly, so he just nodded and replied: "I see, I've been taught."
Hearing this, Zhong Lisuo lowered his eyes and landed on his hand. He pulled his sleeve to block it, and said with a smile, "I got hurt from practicing arrows a while ago. It's not very elegant. Please forgive me, Your Majesty." Chu people cherish their bodies and skin , Messy but not dirty is chic, keeping tidy is manners.If there is a scar on the body, it is a courtesy to cover it up.
