Between the vast sea of ​​clouds

That day, Qingping slept until three poles in the sun before waking up, because he didn't have to go to the yamen, after changing clothes and freshening up lazily, he sent someone to invite Zhang Feng.

It is rare for her to be free today, and she is also a little leisurely, even Zhang Feng's ugly face can taste a little interesting.She said with a pleasant face: "The words I brought you a few days ago have already been read?"

Zhang Feng waited until all the servants retreated outside the door, and then said sadly: "Thank you for your understanding, sir, I have finished reading the script."

Qing Ping smiled slightly and said, "But it's not good-looking enough?" He took out a few brand-new legendary scripts and joked: "Anyway, you have nothing to do, so it's good to read more scripts. The headquarters is busy in the government office on weekdays. I don't have time to accompany you on official business, just pass the time."

Zhang Feng gritted his teeth, and reluctantly said: "Then thank you sir first."

"Between you and me, why do you need to say thank you?" Qingping smiled ambiguously, slipped those few storybooks into Zhang Feng's arms, and said pointingly: "Just sit here and read, and take back to the room if you can't finish reading."

Seeing that Zhang Feng wanted to tear his eyes off, Qingping felt more interesting. Zhang Feng sat down on the side chair stiffly, as if there were thorns growing on the stool, and he was extremely careful.Qingping laughed secretly in his heart, but read the book as if nothing had happened.

She called Zhang Feng to the room to read a book every now and then, screened the servants, and then put Zhang Feng back when it was time to eat. She didn't have to know what the servants said. I can guess most of it.

Anyway, the mansion is full of Chu Jun's eyeliner, she is not afraid that her reputation will not be good, she can't get out of this mansion anyway, but she is self-taught in the ability to make people intimidated, and she can use this group of people to intimidate her. Chu Jun doesn't care about fame anymore.Qingping took a sip of the tea, felt the fragrance on his lips and teeth, took another sip, and felt even more memorable, so he thought that he would ask the steward to pack some, and send them to Yuan Sui's mansion along with the gifts he had prepared earlier.

Qingping went to pay a visit to Yuan Sui's mansion in the afternoon. There were few servants in Yuan Sui's house, and only a little virgin answered the door, looking at him timidly.How could it compare to the "abundance of talents" in his own mansion, Qingping couldn't help sneering in his heart, lifted his hem, turned around the screen wall, and followed the servants to the front hall.

After seeing Yuan Sui, the two sat in the hall drinking tea, Yuan Sui said: "Master Li must have something important to come to the humble house."

Qingping blinked, and said: "Can't you come and see Mr. Yuan if you have nothing to do?"

Yuan Sui said: "Of course, then please Master Li take out the things in your sleeves, and let's take a closer look together."

Qing Ping smiled, and said: "Master Yuan really lives up to his reputation, his eyes are like torches! How did you guess that I brought something? Or maybe it's just something I keep in my sleeve, and I don't want others to see it."

Yuan Sui said indifferently: "Master Li is not the kind of person who is just waiting to make jokes. He must have something important to come here this time."

Qing Ping suppressed his smile, took out a book from his sleeve, Yuan Sui took it with both hands, looked at the cover and said, "This is... "Qing Jia Yi Zhi"?"

Qing Ping said: "It is "Qing Jia Yi Zhi" written by Mo Heng, but it has been reprinted after countless revisions."

Turning over a few pages, Yuan Sui seemed a little surprised, and said: "This book has gone through three dynasties, during which it was listed as a banned book and destroyed. What is left in this world is indeed the revised version of the bookstore. When it first came out, it was printed in a small number. It was published by the bookstore, but it was printed privately, I wonder if Mr. Li wants to find the first edition of this book?"

Qing Ping said: "There is no need for the first version, just the version before Jianxing."

Yuan Sui closed the book and said, "So, Mr. Li, please follow me."

Yuan Sui's study room was full of files and papers, Qingping stepped on tiptoe from a stack of papers, glanced around as if nothing had happened, Yuan Sui seemed to have eyes behind his back, and said: "It's a little messy, Mr. Li, please don't be offended." .”

While talking, he stood in front of the bookshelf, glanced up and down, took out a book from the bottom shelf, patted the dust, and said: "This is the version before Jianxing, the original book has become a treasure, and the price on the black market exceeds Qianjin, this book of mine is just a rubbing, if Mr. Li doesn't dislike it, you can take a look at it."

Qingping took this book, it was indeed much thicker than the one she brought, the rubbing of the old book was obviously very damaged, and many of the writing on it was not very clear.Qingping flipped through a few pages, and saw Yuan Sui marked some vague words on the edge of the page, and looked at her in surprise.

Yuan Suidao: "When I was an official in Hezhou in the past, a case was resolved. Some criminals forged the original version of this book and publicized it on the black market. The imitation book is almost the same as the real one. Unfortunately, several booksellers fell into the trap and sued all the way. This is the reason Li Daren rubbed the old version of the book in his hand."

After listening to her words intently, Qingping always felt that something was wrong, so he said: "When Mr. Yuan judged the case, there must be no original version of this book, right?"

Yuan Sui nodded, led her to sit on the chair on the left, and said: "At first when the booksellers came to sue, they did not have the original version of this book. It's just that the amount of money involved in this case is more than a thousand, which is not a small amount. Xingqian "Qing Jia Yi Zhi" was almost banned｜book, I sent people to imprison those people first, and then I started to investigate the person who counterfeited this book in the black market."

Qing Ping pondered for a while, and said: "Could it be that your lord found the original version later?"

Yuan Sui stroked his palm lightly, expressing his approval, and said: "If it is determined that the booksellers are holding fakes, they need to produce the real ones for verification. Later, a wealthy merchant anonymously submitted the original version of this book, and the charges of forgery and deception were confirmed. This case There are many doubts, and many parties should have investigated it. The booksellers were cheated and it was just a superficial case, but later the state government government tracked back the silver taels and fined those booksellers, so the case was closed."

"It may not be too coincidental." Qing Ping brushed the dust off the pages of the book, and said: "Since the fake book can be so similar to the fake book, it must have the real product in hand. The group of booksellers is also a coincidence. True and false books, willing to spend thousands of taels of silver, and the money was finally recovered... It seems that the links are intertwined, and the adults are going to investigate something."

Yuan Sui took a deep look at her, and said: "Master Li's words are very true, but this case has been sealed, no matter how many doubts there are, we can only let it go lightly."

Qing Ping smiled slightly, and said: "I think Mr. Yuan must have a plan in mind, can you lend me this book and take it back to the mansion for a look?"

Yuan Sui said: "Of course it can. This rubbing edition is only a few volumes behind the one in your master's hands. The longest volume is also the reason why this book was listed as a banned book when it was established."

.

Everything has a source to be found, ranging from man-made disasters to trivial rumors, all have their sources and traces.

The so-called grass-snake gray lines are clues, hidden in silence, and impenetrable.

Qingping rubbed his swollen forehead, took another sip of cold tea, closed the book, leaned back on the chair and exhaled slowly.

As Yuan Sui said, there is only seven volumes difference between this pre-Jianxing edition of "Qingjia Yizhi" and the existing edition. After reading the longest volume, Qingping did not understand why this story was deleted.

This volume is called Biluocheng, and it tells the story of a caravan that strayed into Biluocheng in order to avoid a sudden rainstorm on the way.

Biluo City, as the name suggests, is a city built in the sky. This city is suspended in the clouds and built on the clouds.On a sunny day, when the nearby mountain people look at the lake from the mountain, they can see the shadow of a huge city hidden in the tumbling clouds, just like the sky.There is a huge river roaring like a long dragon beside the city, which is not frozen all year round. According to legend, it is the source of all water in the world.The people in the city are light and graceful, riding a pegasus soaring in the sky, their appearance is very different from ordinary people, like the immortal Gushe, with skin as white as ice, they drink wind and dew, and do not eat ordinary food.Residents of secular villages on the mountain side regard him as a fairy and worship him.

If it is only based on the legend, it is indeed a fascinating and good story. It is a story that strayed into the mysterious and extremely mysterious caravan in Biluo City. That's not to say it's banned.

It's just that there was a person named Ye Qiu in the caravan, who had gained some fame in the Jianghu in his early years, and his friends in the Jianghu gave him the honorific title of a chivalrous woman.Ye Qiu has quite a lot of experience, and he is not interested in this magical Biluo City. He wanted to leave after the heavy rain, but he never thought that in the temple dedicated to Biluo City in this mountain, he saw himself missing for many years. aunt.

It turns out that this Biluo City will select mortals to serve on a regular basis, and it is a rare opportunity for many people to be enlightened by immortals. Therefore, the mountainside village dedicated all its fields to the temple. Ye Qiu’s aunt also persuaded him to stay here and stay away from the troubles of the world. Ye Qiu refused and insisted on leaving with the caravan. After seeing the miracle of Biluo City, half of the people in the caravan decided to stay here. Here, after Ye Qiu and the caravan leader's persuasion failed, they were still here.

Before Ye Qiu left, her aunt secretly gave her a jade token, telling her that if anyone who had seen Biluo City refused to attach himself to the temple and become a believer, he would be killed by the gods when he went outside the city. As long as Ye Qiu Wearing this card will save you from disaster.Ye Qiu and a group of people went down the river and left Biluo City. They immediately informed the government of this matter, and the government led people into the mountain to investigate, but returned without success.

A few years later, Ye Qiu's mother was bedridden due to illness, and wanted to see his younger sister. Ye Qiu looked for Biluo City again. After several twists and turns, he finally came to Biluo City. Villages, but many prosperous towns, judging from their scale, they are not inferior to ordinary people outside the mountains, just like a country in the mountains.Ye Qiu didn't see his aunt when he came here this time, but he saw his old friend who was also practicing here, and his aunt had entered Biluo City to serve.Ye Qiu fought against the priests and elders of the temple many times, trying to save his aunt and friends, but almost lost his life.After all kinds of hardships, he finally escaped with the people who were captured and enslaved at the foot of the mountain, and then reported to the government. The government had long heard that many believers used the city's various miraculous miracles to preach, deceived foolish women and ordinary people, and became a new force. Intending to overthrow the imperial court, he dispatched troops and generals to the mountains to have a look.

That day there was heavy rain and thunder, and the soldiers worked hard to find the location of Biluo City. They only saw the appearance of a city above the clouds on the top of the mountain, and the lights in the mountain were brightly lit, as if it had become the size of a small country. Rolling, a silver dragon came roaring from the mountain, submerging the country in the mountain in an instant, the rain was so heavy that the soldiers had to retreat to the outside of the mountain, and it came back after the rain stopped. No matter how hard they searched, they could not find that Bi Luocheng.

According to what Yuan Sui said, this book was banned because of the invasion that almost led to the fall of Chang'an a hundred years ago. It alluded to the inaction of the imperial court. Suffered from indiscriminate disaster.

During the reign of Emperor Taiping, many people were convicted of writing, and this book was charged with defaming the imperial court and listed as a banned book. The ban was not lifted until 100 years later.

Qingping circled some of the most exciting parts of the description. One is the magnificent scene when Ye Qiu and his team first saw the city of Biluo, and the other is the scene of confrontation with the priests of the temple in the country in the mountains. In the underground palace where the rebels were imprisoned, there were naturally endless hidden weapons and flying arrows. She kept her eyes on it for a long time until she was exhausted and couldn't think of anything.

She turned back to the title page. Coincidentally, the story of Chen Hejie was just before the volume of Biluo City. She couldn't help but think that Biluo City was also a story about the adventures of a pair of friends. What is the relationship between the two?

This is already an old thing 300 years ago, and the past is far away. Even if Qingping wants to read the sealed volume from a hundred years ago, he still needs to report it to the imperial court for special approval.What's more, whether the dossier from 300 years ago is still there is still an undecided number.

The information Wu Ying left is obviously not a simple factional dispute. The reason why she was hunted down must have something extremely secret. she?Qing Ping was concentrating on where to find out, when suddenly the manager knocked on the door to report, saying that there was a letter of worship delivered to the door.

Qingping helped his forehead, and said: "Which adult's house is it?"

The steward said: "It's a greeting card from Mr. Chen's residence in the Ministry of Rites."

It's Chen Kaiyi, what does she want to do.

Qingping closed the book, thought for a while and said: "Let's put it aside for now, let's just say that I caught a cold the day before yesterday, so it's inconvenient to visit. I will thank you in person after I recover later."

.

In the middle of the night, some snow fell in the sky, and the weather was getting warmer day by day, and the ticking sound of melting ice and snow could be heard everywhere, falling on the bronze beasts outside the palace, blurring a pure bronze color.

The mist enveloped the palace. After Chu Jun finished his reply to the memorial, he walked to the window and looked at the palaces and pavilions immersed in the mist in the distance. Chen Qi stood aside and saluted, saying: "Your Majesty."

Chu Jun waved his hand and said, "Have you seen the things Tianxuan brought back?"

Chen Qi said: "Your Majesty is talking about the treasure scroll that Lord Tianxuan brought back from the golden tent? I just read all of it, but it may be difficult to interpret it in detail."

Chu Jun turned around, lowered his eyes, and said: "Xi Rong has established the country for several years, but the Golden Tent existed long before the royal court. The Jin people only know the Xirong Royal Court, but they don't know the name of the Golden Tent. We must discuss it carefully." , the golden tent should indeed be above the royal court."

Chen Qi bowed and said: "Yes, the Golden Tent has been around for thousands of years. It has its own written language, which has been passed down for a long time. In terms of origin, it is similar to the Central Plains. At that time, people often called it in the ancient Xirong language, but it was actually not that big. Yes. This language is completely opposite to the Xirong language. When I was traveling in the grasslands in the past, I heard someone call it 'Tebilan', which means the language bestowed by the gods."

"The Golden Tent established itself as a missionary. Although it is not called a country, it vaguely regards itself as a pure land in the mortal world, secretly calling it a kingdom of gods. It's enough to play tricks of pretending to be gods and ghosts. The so-called gods, so-called miracles, and so-called servants of the gods are all just power players. means." Chu Jun walked to the table, and there was a scroll on the table, the two scrolls were made of gold, inlaid with pearls, jade and gemstones, she stretched out her hand and gently pushed, and as the scroll unfolded, it was a portrait of a woman.

In the painting, the woman has deer antlers on her forehead, wears a wolf's fur, carries a quiver on her back, and holds a bow and arrow. She has a chic figure and black hair. She is stepping on the rushing river. If you look carefully, the water is composed of thousands of blue fish. Walking along the lines of the water shows the high skill of the painter.The woman has a beautiful complexion, her eyes are like stars, the corners of her lips are slightly raised, and her brows reveal an incomparable arrogance and unrestraint, but she is even more charming.The portrait is outlined with gold powder, and the paint used is very bright. The people in the painting are backed by the blue waves and white waves, and they are lifelike under the light.

Chen Qi stared at the painting, and said slowly: "Your Majesty, the person in this painting is the demigod A Yuelai enshrined by the golden tent, this god..."

"I already know the origin of this god," Chu Jun said indifferently, "Daughter of the world, do you think the person in this painting looks very familiar?"

Chen Qi was slightly stunned, and said hesitantly: "To tell you the truth, this Ah Yuelai's appearance is [-]% similar to that Lord Li."

Chu Jun took the painting away, tapped his hand on the table, and said sarcastically: "Among thousands of people, if you search hard, you will eventually find two or three people with similar looks. It can be done individually.”

Chen Qi bowed his head silently, took the scroll with both hands, and said softly: "I heard what Master Tianxuan said, Master Li seems to have passed the ceremony of offering sacrifices to the gods, and according to the rules of the golden tent, he should come for Ah Yue. Since Bi Shu is not in Xirong, If you want to restore the golden account, you will definitely need Ah Yue to help—"

Chu Jun said: "The Golden Tent can preach in other countries, so naturally it can also preach in our country. But in the name of preaching, it is really to deceive the ignorant people, gather forces secretly, and oppose the court."

After saying that, she smiled coldly, flicked her sleeves, sat down lightly, and said coldly: "Li Qingping is in Chang'an, I want to see who can touch her under my nose."

Chen Qi's eyelids moved, and she felt as if she should say something. She thought of the cold and distant face of Li Shizhong, and it took her a long time to organize her words, and said tactfully: "Your Majesty, but I don't seem to understand Master Li...to understand the holy meaning. "

The emperor's face was blank for a moment, and after a rare pause, he said, "What?"

Chen Qi suddenly felt a little terrible, and said sympathetically, "It's about like this."

At this time, the palace people saluted and said that His Royal Highness King Gong had entered the palace and was waiting in the outer room, waiting for the call.

Chen Qi then bowed to leave, and before leaving, seeing the emperor frowning in thought, his sympathy for her increased to a higher level.

This is the authority's obsession, let the bystanders be clear?It's a pity that people in the world have to stumble when it comes to love characters, so what if he is an emperor, he is not much worse than ordinary people, it's sad and lamentable...

The daughter of Wang Chenliu floated away with a treasure scroll in her hand, leaving only a back view of the palace people.

The author has something to say: Dying, stop praising my mother, I will be driven crazy by her

I wrote the article, why do you praise her?

ah?Where is my credit?What about mine?
