Merry Xianggong Ximen Qing

The purpose of "planting" Juzi to Baihualou was to spy on the Song Dynasty's intelligence, but Juzi was deliberately thrown to Qinghe County. Of course, there was no chance to spy on the intelligence. Staying with An Daoquan and his two sides, he also gave up this idea.

Ximen Qing didn't expect his original intentional behavior, but he got a stepping stone for his future trip to Dongying.

According to what Chrysanthemum told An Daoquan, ninjas are divided into upper, middle, and lower ranks. She is just the lowest ninja, so she only knows that the order was given by a nobleman of the Fujiwara family. As for who it is, Chrysanthemum doesn't know.

Ximenqing is somewhat interested. In the world before the time travel, the images of Japanese ninjas have been flying all over the sky with the animation. Not to mention the eastern countries, even the western countries are very familiar with ninjas.

Does Chrysanthemum belong to the Iga family or the Koga family? [

Although in many film and television works, the Iga family and the Koga family are portrayed as sworn enemies, but in fact, these two families are just the horsemen of those nobles, and they are basically alliances.

But to Ximenqing's disappointment, Chrysanthemum was neither the Iga family nor the Koga family's ninja, but just a little-known little ninja family, who was usually raised by the Fujiwara nobleman, and only then did he receive spies An order from Da Song Intelligence.

"This matter is also a bit strange." Ximen Qing thought to himself, "We'll have to wait until Dongying Fei can figure it out."

Ximen Qing asked clearly, so he chatted with An Daoquan again, discussing medical skills; although Ximen Qing's level of traditional medicine was far behind that of An Daoquan, but Ximen Qing had medical literacy before time travel, and the opinions he expressed often It surprised An Daoquan; and An Daoquan's superb knowledge of traditional medicine is almost at his fingertips, Ximen Qing discarded the dross and took the essence, but he also benefited a lot.

The two discussed for a while, Ximen Qing was fine, but An Daoquan was quite surprised and admired Ximen Qing.

"According to my master's point of view, if you follow me for a few years, you can be compared to a famous doctor!" An Daoquan thought to himself: "Not only that, but my master is also very comfortable in business and officialdom. Although I am lazy, where can I find such an all-rounder?" !"

After Ximenqing had a conversation, he got up to say goodbye, and An Daoquan was sent out of the yard. Ximenqing arranged for two young men to help An Daoquan prepare his luggage, and went to live with Juzi in Biezhuang.

Ximen Qing's family has a big business, so naturally they won't just live here. They have already bought two villas outside the city. Although they are useless right now, there are quite large ponds next to the two villas, and there are quite a few fish in them. Ximen Qing regards these two places as fishing gardens for leisure and relaxation.

Almost on the same day, Sang Sanniang from Baihualou had already seen Quanzhou City from a distance.

Although there are carriages along the way, sitting down for a long time will definitely break your bones. Out of time considerations, Sang Sanniang ordered Baihualou along the road to be ready with entourage and carriages, and be on standby at any time.

The attendants and carriages were changed at any time, but Sang Sanniang herself did not rest. After dozens of days, she had lost a lot of weight, but her spirit was still good.

For the perseverance shown by Sang Sanniang, the followers all expressed their admiration in private.

These entourages were no longer the ones who followed from Bianliang, but the ones who followed from the previous stop.

Quanzhou City, also known as Citong City, is on the Maritime Silk Road. Compared with Mingzhou, there are more foreign merchants, and its prosperity is not lower than that of Bianliang.

In such a prosperous place, there is naturally a Baihualou, and it is also the southernmost one in the entire Great Song Dynasty.

Mama Liu of Baihualou had received a message that her big boss, Sang Sanniang, was coming, so she brought more than ten attendants to wait in the long pavilion outside the city early in the morning, and saw several carriages coming, all of them The banner of Baihualou hurriedly led people to greet it.

"Ms. Liu has met Sanniang!" Liu Ma bowed and asked Sang Sanniang to get off the carriage. [

Sang Sanniang looked at Quanzhou City not far away, and asked without asking anything else in the first sentence: "Have you found Heihachiro yet?"

Mama Liu's expression changed, and she lowered her head: "In previous years, Heihachiro had been resting in Quanzhou, but this year he hasn't been seen for some reason."

"Could it be that I made it in time and the person hasn't arrived yet?" Sang Sanniang thought to herself.

Mingzhou is the closest port to Dongying. Many Dongying merchants, including Heihachiro, disembark in Mingzhou and report to the Mingzhou Shipping Department before they can start trading.

Usually businessmen leave in autumn with the trade winds; but Heihachiro is different from other businessmen, he only goes back once every two years, and every winter, when Mingzhou starts to get cold, Heihachiro will go south and live in Quanzhou for a few days. months, and will not return to Mingzhou until it is almost summer.

Every time he came to Quanzhou, Heihachiro would book a place to live in a brothel, and the one with the most choices was Baihualou.

Cai You also met Heibachiro in Baihualou when he and Sang Sanniang went to Quanzhou to play.

To be more precise, Heihachiro did not know how he knew that Cai You was the behind-the-scenes boss of Baihualou, and he deliberately ordered Liu Ma from Quanzhou Baihualou to introduce him.

"Let's talk about the advanced city!"

Sang Sanniang gave an order, and the carriage continued to move forward. The difference was that the entourage had been replaced by Quanzhou locals.

When entering the north gate of Quanzhou, Sang Sanniang ordered someone to lift up the car curtain, admiring the strange pointed arch of the north gate, as well as the crosses and flames, or crosses and lotuses inlaid with city bricks on it, and the Several foreign characters.

This is the famous Erythrina cross in Quanzhou, which has become a distinctive symbol.

In fact, every port in the Song Dynasty was not only a place where merchants from various countries traded goods, but also a place where civilizations and beliefs converged.

This Erythrina cross is the symbol of native Christianity - Nestorianism.

When seeing these before, Sang Sanniang just thought it was fresh, but today, somehow, the Erythrina cross on the city wall gave her a different feeling.

Seeing the Erythrina cross, Sang Sanniang has a support in her loss.

As the shopkeeper of Baihualou, Sang Sanniang is just a servant of Cai You's family. No matter how well he manages Baihualou, Sang Sanniang will never feel the respectful eyes of the rest of the Cai family.

He traveled thousands of miles to Quanzhou, the southernmost city, but Heihachiro was disappointed like a sudden trade wind.

"How about going to a Nestorian church?"

Sang Sanniang was taken aback by her thoughts, shook her head secretly, and ordered to go to Baihualou.

At the same time, there was also a middle-aged man in a white robe alone, looking up at the Erythrina cross. On the surface, he seemed to be admiring it, but in fact, this middle-aged man was secretly swearing that one day he would also Let the logo of Benjiao be engraved on the city bricks of Quanzhou.

"Not only Quanzhou, but the entire Song Dynasty, including Bianliang!" [

This person is handsome, he is the Manichaeism, that is, Fang La, the leader of the Western Zhexi rudder of the Ming Cult!

Fang La caressed the city wall. Sang Sanniang didn't know the foreign characters on it, but he recognized them as those written by the big food merchants. They said the most important one in the Nestorian doctrine, praising "the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit." "of.

Fang La wished he could erase these lines of writing and replace them with Manichaeism hymns.

The light is universal and pure, always blissful and peaceful;

He suffers from joy and annoyance, if he says that there is suffering.

Often in the light of happiness, if you say that you are sick.

If there are those who can live in that country, they will be sad after all.

The adornment of the place is pure, and all evils are impure;

Happiness is full of Chang Kuantai, and there is a place where there is a mausoleum.

Fang La did not come to Quanzhou for sightseeing, but there was an extremely important matter waiting for his arrival.

The name of Manichaeism in Quanzhou is Mingjiao, Fang La is the rudder master in western Zhejiang, and Quanzhou is the place where Mingjiao manages all roads in the south of the Yangtze River, because Mingjiao was introduced from here, and then it was slowly spread by merchants Drive away, and spread all over the south of the Yangtze River.

Even Master Hulu, the No. 1 eminent monk of Manichaeism, also died in Quanzhou, and was buried in Qingyuan Mountain after his death.

This time, the reason for coming here is because Zhong Wanchou, the eighth generation leader of Mingjiao, felt that he would die soon, so he called all the leaders of Mingjiao Jiangnan.

The reason is obvious, it is to take this opportunity to elect a new leader!

Fang La didn't care about this. From his point of view, the affairs in the west of Zhejiang had already overwhelmed him, not to mention that among the helmsmen in the south of the Yangtze River, there were several people who were more qualified than him.

Fang La stood outside the north gate of Quanzhou for a while, then walked slowly into the city and walked away.

Fang La has come to Quanzhou to worship Master Hulu more than once, and Quanzhou is no stranger to him.

Quanzhou is always bustling with crowds of people, with endless streams; the chance of seeing foreigners on the street is far greater than that of the people of the Song Dynasty, which is extremely rare in other places.

Compared with Nestorianism, Mingjiao is still in the stage of secret preaching. Even believers will not declare it everywhere, but maintain the habit of being a vegetarian, and their clothes are mostly white, just like the white clothes Fang La is wearing at the moment. .

Occasionally, Fang La could spot several people also wearing white robes from the crowd on the street, and she nodded slightly;

These are the disciples of Mingjiao.

Fang La found an inn at random, put his luggage away, walked out through the back door of the inn, turned two times and three times, and came to the gate of a house.

The servants at the gate of the house were also dressed in white. They didn't say anything when they saw Fang La coming, but just opened the door silently and let Fang La in.

This is the residence of Master Zhong. Although it was very lively outside, it immediately became quiet as soon as he entered the courtyard, which made Fang La calm down immediately.

The yard was full of people in white clothes, gathered in twos and threes, as if they were discussing something.

Looking around Fang La, there are quite a few acquaintances who are the helmsmen of various roads in the south of the Yangtze River.

He didn't bother to go up to greet him, so he just stood under a tree in the courtyard and waited quietly.

Soon, a man in white robe came out from behind and asked loudly, "Has the rudder master of Zhexi West arrived?"

The discussion in the yard stopped suddenly, and all eyes were on Fang La.
