Jiang Nv is indescribable

Chapter 5 Who's the Prodigal Son

There was too much noise outside, and the man lost all sleepiness. He smeared his face with his palms, sat up straight, and kicked the wall of the car: "How long will it take to enter the city!"

The steward rode by the side of the car. Hearing the irritated voice, he knew that his patience had run out, and quickly responded: "In a moment, in a moment, I will enter the city. Is your injury better? Do you want to take a nap..."

His rhetoric is going to callus his ears, how can Xiao Yuandu believe his nonsense anymore?

The ape arm rests on the bent left knee, the other hand pushes the window open, the right elbow rests on the window frame, and sticks out his head.

After seeing the situation ahead, he suddenly squinted his eyes, "Is it the Hu family's convoy?"

After thinking about it for a while, it became clear: "Come to propose marriage."

The steward answered yes.Seeing him rubbing his chin with one hand and looking interested, he explained the ins and outs to him in detail.

"In the Xuanhe Rebellion, how many princes Gaomen died in robbery and robbery on the way to the south, and I heard that the men of the Jiang family were also killed and injured. The master of the Hu family saved the women and children of the Jiang family. The Jiang family was very grateful and agreed immediately. The family marriage...these years have passed, and the news has been cut off early, but it will be continued again."

After hearing this, Xiao Yuandu sneered mercilessly: "Since the old thief Hu wants to show his loyalty, wouldn't it be more trustworthy to ask the emperor to give him a marriage? He just pulled out a baby relative, and he is not afraid that Jiang Nu is a life-threatening Yasha. Send his son to see the King of Hades early."

He is used to being lawless, but Jingling is no better than Jiyuan, the steward quickly reminded: "Don't dare to talk nonsense! Fifth son, you forgot how the lord explained before leaving..."

Xiao Yuandu snorted, ignored him lazily, stretched his back and lay back in the carriage again, closing his eyes and resting his mind.

The Xiao family was born with a big physique, even if they lie down, they can use a golden sword, clasping their hands behind their heads, and their long and strong legs are casually folded on the bed, swinging a few times from time to time... The steward glanced at it Glance after glance, hesitate to speak.

Dazai's birthday is a major event, the lord can't get away, so it's fine to send the eldest son, how can he agree to let the overlord come to celebrate his birthday? How is this different from Zonghu coming out of the mountain?

I heard that everything in Jingling City is elegant, beautiful in appearance, and pure in words and deeds.Looking at it horizontally and vertically, it has nothing to do with the fifth son, probably only the word "Ren Dan" can barely be relied on.

There are all kinds of troubles along the way, endless disasters, and there are never minor disasters.A few days ago, he was injured by a horse fall. After waking up, he calmed down a bit, but the steward always felt nervous, afraid that he would make a bigger mess...

Just thinking hard about how to prevent it, Xiao Yuandu straightened up like a carp, and sat up suddenly.

"Is Guanwu County near Jingling?" He asked, his eyes shining.

"It's not far from Jingling, but it's not close. It takes half a day to get there by riding a horse. If you are interested, young master, you can go and play for a few days."

The implication is that it is best not to go anywhere before meeting the emperor and celebrating Dazai's birthday.

Xiao Yuandu didn't want to wait for a moment.He grabbed the steward by his collar and dragged him into the carriage. He jumped out and straddled the horse. He casually ordered a few followers, and the group roared towards Guan Wu.

The steward didn't care about the mess and eight vegetarians, leaned out half of his body and asked anxiously: "Young master, what are you doing?!"

The arrogant voice came along the wind: "Go and pick up your young lady!"

"Young, young madam?" The steward was confused. Didn't the lord appoint a girl from the Zhong family for the fifth son... Where did the young madam come from in Guanwu County? !
It happened that Xu's carriage moved slowly here, Jiao Xing listened to these words seriously, and couldn't help frowning: "Who's a prodigal son..."

He raised the curtain of the car, but he saw several riders, and there was no trace in a blink of an eye.
-
Jiang Fosang's thoughts fell elsewhere, and he didn't notice the movement just now.

Through the half-open window, the Fulangzi didn't see him, but he did see a few people from the Longevity Sect.These people are all wearing ocher turbans, which are easy to identify.

Opposite the Longevity believers were several novice monks, and the two sides seemed to have a conflict, which actually attracted Jingling Yin to rush to him.But Guan Jinglingyin's attitude was that neither side dared to offend, and he was blindly friendly.

This scene seems strange at first glance, but it is not so strange when you think about it carefully.

Buddhism was spread to Yan State during Taizu's time. During the heyday, there were many Buddhist temples and cassocks in the whole territory of Dayan. From the princes to the common people, everyone worshiped the Buddha.Although there have been times of decline in the past hundred years, apart from Taoism, no other sect can compete with it.

During the Xuanhe Rebellion, Emperor Yuan established a new dynasty in Jingling. In the dire situation, spiritual support and "good recipes for the world" were especially needed to appease the people who were in trouble.This good prescription is not limited to one family, so heresies appear frequently, and various sects begin to prevail, and the Longevity Sect is one of them.

The founder of the Changsheng religion is also considered a genius. He mixed the benevolence and filial piety of Confucianism, the compassion and cause and effect of Buddhism, the unity of heaven and man of Taoism, and various alchemy magics. A new set of teachings - not only cultivating the afterlife, but also seeking longevity, not only saving suffering, but also promoting beauty and goodness, all of which are good and have no disadvantages, and precisely hit the needs of people at the time.

The people wholeheartedly seek sustenance, whether it is Buddha, Taoist or other ancestors, as long as they can guide them out of the sea of ​​suffering and reach bliss, they are good ancestors.

Today's Changsheng religion has been able to share the spring with Buddhism and Taoism, and there are many high-ranking officials among the believers.

According to Jiang Fosang's knowledge, many members of the Xu family's younger generation secretly converted to the Longevity Religion, but they dared not reveal it because of the prestige of the elders of the Zang family.

For example, Xu Yan.In his previous life, he had always been in close contact with the members of the Longevity Sect...

"My lady, we're here."

In this dynasty, the gentry occupied a large part of the mountains, and many noble families built their own businesses in the mountains, and the Xu family was no exception.

The Xu family has no fewer than ten farms, and Yunfu Mountain is just one of them.However, the circumference of the mountain is nearly [-] li, and the water and land are more than [-] hectares, which is not unique to the Xu family. It seems that the Pei family also has a mansion here.

I heard that the scenery here is unique, the carriage is passing through the specially built mountain road, and looking through the window, I can see the lush vegetation, the melodious singing of birds, and the blue waves passing through the mountain. land.

Jiang Fosang has no intention of enjoying the scenery.

It is said that Xu Yan has recently called friends and companions, and often travels here to play in the mountains and rivers. I hope I don't lose my mind today...

Just as he was thinking, the carriage suddenly shook violently.

Jiang Fosang slammed into the wall of the car heavily, and Jiao Xing also fell aside.Fortunately, the two were not injured.

"What's the matter?" Jiang Fosang asked.

"Mrs. Hui, the hub accidentally got stuck."

Jiang Fosang and Jiao Xing got out of the carriage and waited by the roadside. Seeing the depth of the pit, they felt something was wrong.Sure enough, the driver and the servant were sweating profusely, but they couldn't push the hub out.

But at this time there was another rumbling sound, and when he turned his head to look, a red sandalwood carriage with jade ornaments on its four corners was approaching.

The mountain road was not narrow, but it was difficult for two carriages to run side by side, not to mention that their carriage was still in a slanted posture at this time.

With bright almond eyes, he whispered in his ears: "My lady, this is the carriage of the Pei family."

"The Pei family..."

After the Xuanhe Rebellion, like the chaotic political situation, the aristocratic families also experienced a major reshuffle.

There are those who shine after moving south, such as the Lueyang Xu family, who was originally a third-rate noble family in the north and now has become a top family.

There are also those who have declined after moving south, such as their Tianshui Jiang family.

Of course, there are also pines and cypresses in the mountains that are always green no matter in the south or in the north, such as the Pei family who is known as "a generation of Confucianism".

The study of Ouyang's "Shangshu" was handed down from generation to generation in the Pei family, and there were as many as five people who lived as three princes in the fourth generation.He has specialized in one classic for many generations, and his family business has been passed down from generation to generation. All his children are masters of Confucianism and masters of etiquette.

Even with the decline of Confucianism and the prevalence of metaphysics, the status of the Pei family still cannot be shaken—his family edited and produced the ritual regulations of the new dynasty. After all, Confucian scholars are the majority of Confucian scholars in the world.

Therefore, the Pei family, an old family, is still one of the four major noble families today.It was the Xu family who was superior, and the Runan Ying family was the one who stepped down, and they couldn't shake the Pei family...

Jiang Fosang regained his composure and took a closer look. He saw that the carriage was luxurious and the horses were strong. There were two teams following behind the carriage.

Just as she was about to ask Jiao Xing to go to apologize, she saw a young attendant jump out of the car, with her back turned to this place, with a few fingers, followed by three steps and came over.

With more reinforcements, the hub was quickly rescued from the pit.

Jiang Fosang signaled the driver to stop the carriage and let the other party go first to show his gratitude.

The other party was not polite and accepted it gladly.

When they passed by, through the half-opened window and the fluttering veil, one could vaguely see a corner of the brocade clothes and jade belt inside the car.

Jiang Fosang couldn't help but startled.
