Chapter 135

After a year of negotiations, the barbarians have all withdrawn from Da Yue, but the Dawu is still negotiating with Da Yue about the trip to Chongming Temple.Da Yue has never let go, Da Wu is not in a hurry, with the means of those mortals, even with the protection of the country, it is impossible to find the entrance of the ancient ruins, so Da Wu is really not in a hurry, because the barbarians were defeated, they have to hand over to the There were too many things in the Great Moon Dynasty, and four-fifths of the barbarian tribe's supplies were thrown into it all at once, and the barbarian tribe's vitality was severely damaged at once, coupled with the loss of the fertile and beautiful Moerhan prairie.And the Dawu tribe that launched several wars also took the most supplies, which made the people of the Dawu tribe very dissatisfied with the Dawu.People from other tribes had less horses to eat, so they had to rob each other, and the one who was robbed the most was the Dawu tribe.There is no way, Dawu can't do without the barbarian tribe for the time being in order to stabilize the hearts of the people in the tribe, so he just put forward an application to go to Chongming Temple, since Dayue didn't agree, he simply put the schedule on hold. After the tribes of the barbarians are settled down, the tribes can be united again.The great witch is a foundation-building monk. He has a lifespan of 300 years, and it is only half over now. When he gets the things in the ancient ruins and successfully advances to the golden core, he can add another 300 years to his lifespan. Therefore, he still has time. There are many, and it will be too late to go to Dayue after he appeases the barbarian tribe first.He is not in a hurry.

However, Fang Xiao has already made up his mind to re-emphasize the view.Because, she received a letter from Shangguan Xiao.The letter stated that he had safely returned to the capital, and after he had settled the affairs of the palace, he sent someone to pick her up.The matter of recognizing her as a righteous daughter has been reported to the emperor. The emperor is very happy and wants to see her very much.Let her wait in Wuma Town with peace of mind.

When Fang Xiao saw this letter, his mind became active.I heard that Chongming Temple is in Kyoto, so she must find a chance to go to Chongming Temple this time.Cai Lao and Liu Lao came to find them.The two old men read Shangguan Xiao's letter and said that they were getting old and didn't want to go to Beijing again.At the same time, Fang Xiao was also reminded that after entering Beijing, he should try to avoid staying alone with the national teacher.Don't even mention the matter of the two old men with the national teacher.

Fang Xiao felt strange, and asked the two old men if they had a holiday with the national teacher.The two old people shook their heads, saying that it was a matter of the previous generation, so she should not get involved.But Fang Xiao felt that since the two elders had a feud with the national teacher in Beijing, she should let her know what was causing the two elders to avoid such a remote place.Otherwise, if she accidentally slipped her mouth, wouldn't it be a disaster for herself.

Mr. Liu sighed, and said: "Actually, it's not a big problem. You are protected by Prince Xiao. As long as the national teacher wants to stay in Dayue and accept the tribute from the royal family of Dayue, he will not do anything to you." , It's just that the national teacher has a small mind, and you have a straight temper. When you talk to him alone, you don't know what you said wrong, so you offend him. That's why I remind you not to be alone Stay with the national teacher and try not to talk to him."
Fang Xiao knew that Grandpa didn't want to talk about it, so he didn't force it.Since the national teacher is a practitioner, how could he attack two mortals.There must be tricks in this, but if daddy doesn't tell, she can't ask, lest it lead to the old man's past and hurt the old man's heart.When I go to Kyoto this time, if I encounter a national teacher, I should try to avoid it as much as possible.

After walking around his room twice, Fang Xiao packed two things and went to the main room, where sat people from Beijing, a woman, a fourteen-year-old girl, a steward and a entourage.The woman and the person in charge sat at the lower position of Mr. Liu, drinking tea and talking to Mr. Liu, while the girl and the attendant stood behind them, looking ahead, and listening to the conversation of several people. conversation.Seeing Fang Xiao come into the room with a small bundle.There was a trace of disdain in the mother-in-law's eyes.Mr. Liu's eyes turned cold, he glanced at the old woman and the steward lightly, and said: "This time, her master and I will not go to Beijing. You can send a message to Prince Xiao. If A Xiao is not used to living in Beijing, you can go to Beijing." Send a letter back, and I will send someone to bring my granddaughter back to the village, so as not to embarrass the prince."
The person in charge froze and said quickly: "The old man is serious. Since the lady is the adopted daughter of the prince, she is also a petite guest in my palace. She will not be wronged in the palace. The road is not smooth now, and there are still [-] people left at the foot of the mountain." The guards are waiting, and since the young lady has packed everything up, we're leaving now." After speaking, he stood up and saluted Mr. Liu.

Mr. Liu nodded, looked at Fang Xiao and said, "You understand what I said just now. If you feel uncomfortable living in Beijing, please send me a letter. Don't run around by yourself, wait for our people to pick you up." You come back, you know?"

"Understood, Grandpa, you and Master must take good care of your health. When I settle down, I will pick you up and go to Kyoto with Master." Fang Xiao smiled and blinked.Mr. Liu also laughed, and sighed: "Our two old bones can't stand your toss. Well, it's getting late, let's go quickly!" Saying this, he got up and sent Fang Xiao and the others out of the village.

And all the junior brothers and sisters also ran out of the martial arts training ground, and each of them gave Fang Xiao a few fruits to eat on the road.Fang Xiao was moved, and waved goodbye to these children, asking them to study with their grandfather and master, and when she settled down in the capital, she would pick them up and go to the capital to play together.

When he got down to the foot of the mountain, Fang Xiao saw three or two carriages parked on the official road from a distance.A group of guards were waiting there.The steward took the entourage into the first carriage, and the mother-in-law led the little girl and took Fang Xiao to the second carriage.As soon as I got into the carriage, there were two soft cushions and a small table inside. The mother-in-law asked Fang Xiao to sit on one side, and she led the little girl to lean against the other side. The maid gave her a wink, and the little maid took a soft cushion for the mother-in-law and put it on her back, and poured a cup of tea from the teapot and handed it to the mother-in-law.The mother-in-law took a sip of tea comfortably, took a long sigh of relief, pointed to the teapot, and reprimanded the little girl: "Why don't you know how to put a cushion on the young lady and pour some water. If the young lady doesn't tell you, you won't Did you move?"

The little girl's face changed, and she quickly got up and took a cushion and put it behind Fang Xiao.Fang Xiao raised his hand, stopped the little girl's movement, flicked his fingers, and a wisp of smoke shot straight under the old woman's nose. The old woman froze, but she sat there motionless, holding the The cup was overturned in the carriage.The little girl was startled, turned around and supported the old woman.However, the mother-in-law was stiff all over and felt hard to the touch.The little maid was so frightened that her lips trembled and she was about to scream.Fang Xiao gave the little maid a cold look, and said, "If I were you, I would never make any noise."
The little girl nodded repeatedly in fright, but she didn't dare to support the old woman, she shrank to a corner of the carriage, her body was shaking constantly.Fang Xiao stretched his feet, sat up straight, and asked, "Who sent you here? Don't tell me that the foster father sent you here, I won't believe it."
The little girl opened her mouth and said, "I am Fufeng, the third-class girl next to the princess. This is Mother Yao, the mother who is in charge of the princess's courtyard. Our princess heard that the prince has taken in a foster daughter outside. When I came to the capital, I sent Mother Yao and I to come with the manager of Amoy University, saying that since the female relatives are on the way, it would be more convenient to have a maid to take care of her. The prince agreed to let us serve the young lady."
"Is this how you serve me?" Fang Xiao asked a little funny, raising his eyebrows.

The maid flinched back in fright, and said: "Mother Yao said, the lady came from the mountains, she doesn't know the rules, and she is too old, the palace has strict rules, so I must let the lady know some of the rules in the mansion, so let I must follow her instructions along the way, and I must let the young lady know who the head mistress of the palace is before the young lady steps into the mansion."
"And then?" Fang Xiao's tone was not serious.But the little maid trembled, and then continued: "Mother Yao said, since the concubine sent us out to pick up the young lady, she will definitely pull us out to serve the young lady after she enters the mansion. Since we are accepted The high trust of the princess is to make the lady obedient. First of all, let the lady know that people who come out of the palace, even if they are servants, are more dignified than outsiders. Since she will be the mother in charge of the lady's house in the future, the lady You should listen to her teachings. The young lady lived outside since she was a child, and she must be wild and unruly. I want to give the young lady a warning and let the young lady know the importance of the mother who is in charge. After returning to the mansion, the young lady will listen to her mother and the princess if."
Fang Xiao laughed: "So, you respect Yao's mother, what she says is what she says?"

"No, no, I, I am just a little maid. I go out and don't listen to Yao's mother. When I go back to the mansion, I will definitely be punished by the princess. I, I have a younger sister who works in the mansion. Me," he said boldly and raised his head to look into Fang Xiao's eyes.Seeing that Fang Xiao was looking at him without blinking, he quickly lowered his head and said, "I dare not disobey the princess' order."
"Although I am a long countryman, I also understand the difference between a master and a servant. Although Yao's mother is a mother in charge, in my eyes, she is just a servant. But you obey a servant in everything and put me in the same place. Where did you go? From now on, when it's time for a break, you go to the manager of Amoy University and stay alone, I don't want to see you again." Fang Xiao closed his eyes and fell asleep.

The little girl quietly raised her eyes to look at Fang Xiao, seeing Fang Xiao ignoring her, she glanced at Yao's mother again, seeing Yao's mother's eyes wide open, her body motionless, but a trace of saliva dripped down from the corner of her mouth, smacking the front of her chest. Wet a small piece, and I was even more frightened and dared not make a sound.Shrinking his head, wishing he could bury himself in the partition.I thought to myself, didn't this lady say she was feeling unwell?It was true that his face was colorless, but he turned the man into a wooden figure with one hand. I don't know if Yao's mother can go to the town.

The speed of the carriage was not fast, as if it had received some explanation, it moved forward slowly.Sitting in the first carriage, the person in charge of Amoy University heard before going up the mountain that Mother Yao had been instructed by the princess to teach the young lady how to behave and let him walk slowly along the way. Only after the rules have been taught can the lady enter Beijing.But in my heart I don't think so.This lady, I heard that she grew up in a den of bandits.I saw it in the cottage just now, mixed in with a group of brats, brawling together shamelessly.After entering the palace, if you don't understand the rules of the palace, you don't know what jokes will be made in the palace.It is better for someone to teach her than for her to discredit Wangfu.
