Famous all over the world

When the two were talking, the sound of the bowstring kept ringing, and it was only at this moment that it quieted down. The fruit on King Yong's head was still there, but the two wild goose feathers were broken on the ground.He was looking down at the broken feather on the ground, wondering what he was thinking.

Deyuan next to him was already yelling, but after being drank by him, he withdrew to the side.But Jiang Yuan still had a cold expression on his face, and he wanted to put the bow and arrow back on the shelf.

King Yong glanced at her, raised his hand to take off the fruit and the white jade crown, threw it on the ground, and followed her.Deyuan bent down to pick them up, held them in his arms, and quickly followed them.

Jin Yang's face has changed, "This is too bad, the third brother has always looked at the goose plume crown like an eyeball, I'm afraid..."

Jiang She didn't feel her heart tremble when she heard the words, she saw this Highness three times, and her attire was never the same, but only the two wild goose feathers remained the same, it seemed that she was very beloved.She also knew what Jiang Yuan was thinking, and she was afraid that this move was just to vent her anger for her, but...

She and Jin Yang hurried over, and were about to make amends on Jiang Yuan's behalf. She didn't want to hear him say coldly before she arrived: "You have a bit of guts, but keep these eyes for yourself. What will happen in the future? Come and talk to Gu."

Jiang She was taken aback for a moment, and Jin Yang couldn't help being taken aback. The two looked at each other, and they both stood still, and didn't go forward immediately.

After King Yong finished that sentence, he turned his head and greeted Jin Yang, "Let's go." Regardless of Jiang Yuan's answer or not.

Jin Yang was obviously very shocked. Hearing this, he hummed, said goodbye to Jiang She in a hurry, and followed Yong Wang.

Jiang She was not so shocked, he just said that the little prince thought about it, and saw Jiang Yuan walking beside her silently, but smiled at her, reached for the longbow on the rack, "Since Mr. Xu is leaving Well, there is nothing wrong with left and right today, why don't we have a comparison."

As she said, if you want to protect her well and do what she wants, then you don't care about the consequences.

Jiang Yuan didn't move, but said in a low voice: "Ah Yuan was wrong, Ah Yuan shouldn't..."

"Hush—" Jiang She lightly pressed his finger on her lips, "Okay, concentrate, those who lose must write a letter to Ah Yan."

Jiang Yuan watched her stretch her longbow, and was silent for a while, before she spoke again: "...the major general bullies others, how can I, how can I win the major general?"

Jiang She turned his head to look at her with a smile, "It's up to people, besides, Ah Yan misses you."

She casually drew out another feathered arrow, and the unfinished invitation in her sleeve fluttered to the ground. The gold-plated characters shone brightly in the warm sun. When she saw it, her mind suddenly sank.

Jinyang...would he be willing?

If it was her, she would not lose to a man in both literary and martial arts, would she be willing to just marry into a hasty wife like this?She won't, and Jin Yang probably won't either.

But how did the prisoner bird in the Forbidden City fly out of this imperial city?Perhaps... Jinyang also had another thought. If she was the one to marry, maybe there would be a chance to go to the border together?

If you make a gentleman's appointment with her, pretend to be married, and don't interfere with each other...

Mobei... the desert, the lonely city... Even if the peace is negotiated now, that battle is inevitable after all. She wants to go back, wants to train the soldiers herself, and wants to be able to stand on the battlefield where the wind is blowing, instead of hiding in the capital city where the spring breeze is blowing I want to see the red sun and round sky in the desert, the lonely smoke and wild geese, I want to gallop on horses, not knowing the loneliness of the world, instead of shrinking in this small school yard, waiting to go to a smoky banquet.

She picked up the invitation card, unconsciously squeezed it slightly, her smile was cold and boiling, but in the end she just opened her hand lightly, flattened the creases, put it in her arms, and smiled at Jiang Yuan.

The longbow is fully drawn, and the arrows are flying like meteors, one, two, three...you don't need to look, you know that they all hit the red heart.

It turned out that she clearly still cared about this matter.

But she shouldn't be like this, this is just her wishful thinking, Jin Yang may not think so, if she really has that little affection for her... No, the matter is not that far... Emperor Zhaoning, it shouldn't be Force her?

Yeah...he's not like that.

She put down her bow and arrow, looked at Jiang Yuan, forced a smile, "Ah Yuan lost."

Jiang Yuan hummed in a low voice, "I, I'm going to write a letter." After saying that, she really put down her bow and arrow, turned around and left.

Jiang She couldn't help being slightly taken aback, she felt that she had just lost her composure, and with Jiang Yuan's carefulness, she should have noticed that she was in a different mood.But after thinking about it, I realized that this was good, so I didn't think about it any more, I put away my bow and arrow, and went to see what she wrote.

There was nothing to say in the night, and the next day Xu Su still came with He Ding, and when he entered the door, he turned around and scolded Yong Wang.He Ding only smiled bitterly, saying that he was not afraid to say Cao Cao and Cao Cao would be there soon.

Xu Su said that there was nothing to be afraid of, but his voice quietly lowered a little.But the little ancestor who couldn't pull the bow finally didn't come again, not only He Ding called luck, Jiang She was also relieved, and she didn't want to deal with him, it was really tiring because of the uncertain weather.

In a few days, the palace examination period will be over, and the two of them will no longer care about going to the door.After the palace examination, as soon as the gold list came out, she sent Jiang Yong to send a congratulatory gift, but she only met the two of them once, and it was said that they were going to various banquets.

During this period of time, Beijing and China were indeed unprecedentedly lively, with horses parading through the streets and banquets in Qionglin, I don't know how many talented people from poor families have been blessed, and how many beautiful beauties have been blessed.He Ding and Xu Su have a lot of friends, so it is natural that they will have a lot of entertainment for being named on the gold list.

She didn't really care too much, but she had some free time, and it was still hard to pass, so she often went out with Jiang Yuan.

As soon as you sit in a teahouse or restaurant, you can immediately hear a lot of more interesting news.The number one scholar in the current discipline is indeed the son of the Du family, and He Ding also became a Tanhua as he wished, and he has no chance to be his wandering cloud and wild crane again.As expected, Xu Su had no rivals in the martial arts examination, became the number one scholar, took the job of Jingdu Wei, and became a deputy guard.

This time, none of the top three were let go. Some people said it was the grace of the sage, some people said it was the head of the state pleading for mercy, and some people said it was the national teacher who got a divination.However, the head armor has always been a member of the Imperial Academy, but this cousin of the Du family continued to go his own way, begging for a job at Dali Temple on the spot, and I don't know what his intentions are.

However, this cousin has been away from home for a long time, so she didn't care too much about whether it had nothing to do with her, but Peiming finally sent a message saying that she had found Jiang Ting and that both of them were safe. I have heard a lot on the road, and I also said that the Stone Sect will never be successful, and the evil will eventually prevail... But I talked about it, but I never mentioned the return date.

Jiang She was very clear-headed, so he didn't ask any more questions, he just wrote down the details of Jiang Sheng's trip to the north as scheduled, and asked the disciple of Jiuyou to send a letter back.

But now that she knew her news, she felt a little relieved.

Such a leisurely life passed quickly, almost before she knew it, Jiang Dushi had returned from Qingliang Temple, and then the Empress Dowager's birthday came as scheduled.

In fact, Jiang She hadn't entered the palace for a long time, and the Qionglin Banquet was also declined by her. Today, as the palace people entered the hall, I felt that it was full of splendor and wealth, and it was not like the so-called ordinary in Jinyang's mouth. family dinner.

The treasury is empty...but still extravagant?

With a slight stab in her heart, she couldn't help raising her head to look at Emperor Zhaoning, but she couldn't see his expression clearly because of the majesty and majesty of the tower, so she had to restrain her eyes, forced a smile, and bowed down to salute with Jiang Dushi .

Empress Dowager Du actually came down to help her, and invited her mother and daughter to sit down. Seeing that Mrs. Jiang Du could not refuse, she went and sat down as she said. Who knew that Empress Dowager Du was not willing to let her go, and took her hand affectionately, Point out the people in the hall to her one by one.

She only felt that the royal relatives, sons and grandsons of the emperor were all born in the same way. At first, she tried to distinguish them, but then she only listened to the titles of the Queen Mother, and followed them with smiles and salutes, until her eyes touched the one sitting at the end. When he was a young man in green robe, he couldn't help being slightly startled.

Just because of that cyan color, in the crowd of red and purple, it seems dazzling and shabby.She was wondering whose family this was, so Empress Dowager Du said with a smile: "This is your cousin of the Du family, the number one scholar in the current discipline, follow your aunt, full of knowledge, and we should have more contacts in the future."

This name can be called thunderous, Jiang She hurriedly greeted him with a smile, and said a few words of praise.

Du Feng got up to greet her. He had a clear face, but his eyebrows were slightly frowned, and his eyes were deep, as if he was full of thoughts.Although there was nothing wrong with his demeanor, there was an inexplicable sense of estrangement—probably the luxury of the house was worth nothing in his eyes.

Jiang She couldn't help feeling a little fond of him, but he didn't have much to say, so he was led to the other side by Empress Dowager Du, and heard several wives praising her as "beautiful and handsome, Yuanting and Yuezhi".

Although she was quite impatient in her heart, she could only smile on her face, and suddenly caught a glimpse of Jinyang smiling at her among the crowd, then cupped his face in both hands, made a sighing movement, and then blinked at her, showing a bit of embarrassment.She couldn't help laughing, but missed what some princess asked her, but after a little hesitation, she saw the clue and was teased a few times.She had no choice but to cheer up again, and she had to glare at Jinyang in the gap, Jinyang was overwhelmed by it, and then he was pulled back by a girl in palace dress beside her, as if asking her why she was laughing.

Jiang She sighed secretly, looked away, and listened to Empress Dowager Du with a smile.Fortunately, not long after, Zheng Wen came to ask if he could arrange a seat.

Empress Dowager Du thought for a moment, smiled and nodded, looked around and said, "It's almost time, what do you think?"

Everyone nodded, but Mrs. Guo suddenly laughed and said, "His Royal Highness King Jing hasn't arrived yet."

Empress Dowager Du looked around, wondering, "Yes, why hasn't Old Fourteen come yet? Then wait for him."

Zheng Yan said respectfully: "The prince just sent someone to send a message, saying that he will be late for a while, please don't wait for him."

"Look, I'm really afraid that the Ai family will ask for a gift." Empress Dowager Du pretended to be angry, "I asked him a few days ago, and he said that he was still making arrangements. The Ai family only wanted people to come. Not coming? Well, then we really won’t wait for him.”

The husband of the country said with a smile: "Perhaps the prince is buying a gift and wants to give the empress a surprise."

Everyone also echoed, Jiang She watched from the side, but for some reason, he felt that the Queen Mother seemed really dissatisfied.She searched her mind, but today she listened to too many princes, so she couldn't remember the origin of that one for a while, but she heard the queen mother said: "This is what you said. If the old fourteen is really empty-handed later, the Ai family will have nothing to do." Count it on your head."

The husband of the country sighed and said: "Today, I know what it means to say that misfortune comes from my mouth. Let it go, if the prince really comes empty-handed, I will have the audacity to offer him an extra birthday gift, as long as I can please my mother." .”

The queen mother laughed, and everyone laughed again, and then they took their seats one by one.On the other side, Zheng Fan sang the order, and the palace servants who had already prepared it passed the meal like a stream of water.The fragrance overflowed from the bottom of the cover, Jiang She suddenly felt hungry, but he remained motionless like everyone else, only waiting for the Emperor Zhaoning to give his blessing with a smile, and the Empress Dowager to eat first.

Zheng Wen lifted the cover for Empress Dowager Du, and everyone in the audience was shocked.The plate was not the "Luck and Longevity" that was reported just now, but a neat booklet.The Empress Dowager hesitated for a moment, and just reached out to turn over a few pages, then raised her head in surprise, "This...is the scripture hand-copied by Master Kongjue?"

Emperor Zhaoning was also slightly surprised, he poked his head over to take a look, then looked at Zheng Wen, and before he could ask anything, he heard the music suddenly change, two palace servants carried a dark green plant Bright cycads come.Strange to say, there are several exquisite brocade boxes tied to the tree that are different from others.

"The iron tree is blooming, and it coincides with the meeting. What blooms is longevity, and what bears is Buddhist scriptures." A person turned out from behind the tree, bowed deeply, and said loudly, "I wish the queen mother a blessing like the East China Sea, a life longer than Nanshan, and a thousand years of longevity. , live without bounds." As he spoke, he took off a brocade box and opened it, but it was another thin book.

The Empress Dowager immediately beamed with joy, "Get up quickly, you are indeed the old fourteenth, you are the best at making new tricks."

King Jing Xie En got up, his facial features were vivid and vivid, and there was a natural nobility between his brows, "As long as the empress likes it, it is the luck of my younger brother."

The Empress Dowager held the volume of Buddhist scriptures, looked at the thick green iron tree, was so happy from ear to ear, and praised him a few times, then hurriedly asked someone to take him to a seat.

King Jing thanked him for his kindness, and slowly walked to the table with the help of others and sat down.It was only during this action that it became apparent that his legs and feet were in trouble, and the jade was slightly flawed, which made people feel sad.He looked the same as usual, apparently already used to it.

It was only then that Jiang She remembered those gossips. It is said that when King Jing was young, he was born with Yuxue, who was cute and talented, and Emperor Yongxing liked him a lot.It's a pity that when he was five years old, he suffered from a serious illness. Although he was rescued, his legs were left with disabilities. Later, famous doctors could only force him to stand up, but he still couldn't walk alone for too long.It was also for this reason that the other princes were entrusted in a very partial way when they became adults. Only King Jing's fief was in Luoting Township not far from Beijing, and he was allowed to stay in the capital often, so he didn't have to be a vassal.

Others said that if King Jing hadn't suffered from the serious illness that year, the emperor would have changed in this country long ago.However, Jiang Qi once said that it was pure nonsense. Emperor Yongxing was the most wise monarch, even if he favored children, he would not do such a thing as abolishing the elders and establishing the younger ones to shake the foundation of the country.

However, since there are such rumors, it is human nature for the Empress Dowager to feel resentful.

This prince must also have self-knowledge, so he devoted himself to worshiping Buddha for many years and did not stay in Beijing for a long time.Speaking of it... Master Kongjue, Qingliang Temple, Jiang Dushi, and... Zhuang Shuo, a prince who made friends with each other, went out of the city to meet friends, acquaintances who forgot the year... Jiang She suddenly had an idea, and he inevitably looked at King Jing a few more times.But he seemed to notice her gaze and smiled gently at her.

After being discovered, she also nodded to him, and then looked away.Everyone was still praising the beauty of the iron tree, so the queen mother asked to stay in the hall to watch it for a while, while talking and laughing, Du Guozhang suddenly stood up, "I also have a thing, I want to present it to the queen mother."

The queen mother looked at him with great interest, "Oh, what is it? The father-in-law's move must be extraordinary."

Emperor Zhaoning smiled and said: "Uncle must have put a lot of thought into it, it must be a good thing, but this dish is only served, in my opinion, why not wait until after the banquet?"

The Empress Dowager shook her head and said: "Although the emperor's words are reasonable, the father of the country has already whetted the appetite of Aijia. If you don't watch it now, Aijia may not taste the food. What do you think?"

Now that she has talked to this extent, who would say no, Du Guozhang beamed with joy, "This thing, standing shoulder to shoulder with the iron tree, the prince, just adds to the fun."

When he said this, Jiang She also became curious, and the Queen Mother was even more impatient, she wanted to see him immediately, so Du Guozhang gave orders, and not long after, eight palace men carried the thing away come up.

The people in that palace were all tall and strong, but they still seemed to be struggling, and they trembled when they landed, obviously it was a heavy object.Du Guozhang was obviously a little proud, he said a few more words, and just now he lifted the red cloth covering in public, there was a burst of surprise during the banquet, the queen mother even stood up, and took a closer look.

It turned out to be a fake rock, higher than a human head, and its color was yellowish, but Jiang She looked left and right, and he felt that it was so.It is neither like a peak nor a peak, it has no shape, but it is just a stone with many holes, and I don't understand how even Jinyang's eyes are shining, and he seems to want to go up to have a look and touch it.

Du Guozhang saw that the queen mother liked it, and everyone was amazed, so he became more and more proud, "This stone was only fished out of Taihu Lake last year. My disciples found it by chance and offered it to me, but how can I afford such a favor?" Things, after much deliberation, are worthy of being the Empress Dowager's birthday gift. You see here, it looks like a phoenix with its head high, matching the noble aura of the empress. Here is a pine shape bestowed by God, which means longevity. Here... ..."

He was eloquent, pointing on the stone, and the Queen Mother nodded slightly while listening, applauding again and again.

Jiang She sighed secretly, but unconsciously glanced at King Jing again, seeing that he was still peaceful, with a smile on his face, as if he was talking about the beauty of the mountain and rock with the prince next to him.She looked away and saw that Emperor Zhaoning was also talking to the little prince with his head turned sideways, she shook her head lightly for a moment, and when she glanced from the corner of her eye, she saw Du Feng who was at the end suddenly got up.

She couldn't help being startled, and watched him walking quickly to the side of the rock in amazement.

There was a moment of silence in the hall, the Queen Mother glanced at him, and after being surprised, a smile appeared on her face, pointing to the stone and saying: "Look, Ah Feng, this really has the meaning of a phoenix head, doesn't it? "

Du Feng didn't answer, but panted quickly, raised his head and fixedly stared at Emperor Zhaoning, his eyes seemed to be on fire.

Du Guozhang scolded, "Du Sizhi, today is the Empress Dowager's birthday, and you dare to be presumptuous, why don't you step back!"

Du Feng still ignored him, but suddenly knelt down on his knees, kowtowed three times, and said with a bang, "Your Majesty, the lake stone is speechless, but this humble minister has a mouth. Today, my humble minister has the courage to complain for this Taihu Lake stone!"
