Jinyi Night Walk

Xia Xun and other civil and military officials stood under the Juxian Building, and sent the three princes away first, and all the ministers bowed their hands to Xia Xun to say goodbye one by one. stop. ^^

Xia Xun knew that he had a grudge against him because of the girl's affairs, so he walked over with a smile and said, "My son-in-law, take a step to speak."

Xia Xun pulled him aside and said, "My son-in-law, what happened to your tenant's daughter last time..."

Hu Guanpi smiled and said: "Oh, my housekeeper has already told me about this matter. The tenant owed the debt and couldn't pay it. I worked as a servant girl in the house to repay the debt. I was waiting for the empress in Yanziba that day, and I didn’t know anything about it. Afterwards, I heard that the steward had made his own way, and I had already severely reprimanded him. Originally, my Hu family didn’t run a charity hall. Yes, the debt should be repaid. My Hu family has more than a thousand tenants. If any family is dying, I will forgive the debt. No matter how big the family business is, it will be ruined. But since the Duke has intervened, That's another matter, I have ordered the steward to forgive his family's debts."

Xia Xun secretly said, "Sure enough, let's go!" The smile became more cordial: "Haha, the son-in-law is being polite, and I am ashamed to give Yang some face like this. My son-in-law, there is no one else here. What is the actual situation, hehe, I know it in my mind. In fact, Yang happened to pass by that day. I didn’t want to care about this matter. Who knew that your family was too ostentatious, and the little princess of the Zhongshan Palace saw it. You know, daughter The family is soft-hearted, especially for this kind of thing, Yang Mou felt, if I don't care, the princess is young and vigorous, maybe it will make things worse, and the face of the son-in-law will not look good at that time, so I intervene One hand."

Hu Guan couldn't help being a little moved when he heard the reply from his family. He knew that there was indeed a pretty girl beside Xia Xun at that time. The people in the mansion now only know the truth after hearing Xia Xun's words. They were originally full of no worries, but now they are really grateful.

Xia Xun observed his words and expressions, and said more earnestly: "My son-in-law, you and I are both men. I can understand this matter. However, a gentleman is lustful, and he gets it in a proper way. Besides, I don't want to be a son-in-law because of your character, family background, and status." What kind of woman can't I get? This time, she was seen by the little princess of the Xu Mansion, and coincidentally bumped into me, so she was suppressed. The son-in-law must be careful about things that lose face. There is no grass anywhere in the world, so why take it by chance.

Xia Xun's words were not a compliment, but in terms of appearance alone, Hu Guan was a little more handsome than him, with a seven-foot-high body, good facial features, and a heroic spirit.For officials of Yang Ming, appearance and body are one of the reference criteria, and the selection of a son-in-law is similar to a beauty pageant. The conditions are very strict. This Hu Guan is indeed a handsome man.

Knowing the situation inside, Hu Guan's resentment disappeared immediately. Whether he listened to Xia Xun's words, he listened to Xia Xun's words, and quickly returned the courtesy: "Yes, the Duke's golden and jade words, Hu has recorded it. It turns out that there is still such a situation inside, Hu really doesn't know, the Duke is so... really grateful. Another day, another day, Hu will hold a banquet to thank the Duke, the Duke must appreciate it."

"Your son-in-law is polite, you are polite, hehe..."

Xia Xun hurriedly bowed his hands and returned the salute. Although he was not afraid of Hu Guan, he didn't need to make enemies for himself. Now let's talk about it. If Hu Guan still has a grudge, it means that Hu Guan is ignorant. Hu Guan is on the road like this. Even a trouble, he is also very happy.They chatted and laughed a few times, and watched Hu Guan leave on horseback. When Xia Xun turned around, he saw Huang Ligong, the minister of the Ministry of Industry, and Liu Yu and Jue, the governors of Jinyiwei Nanzhen, waiting at the door of the building.

Huang Ligong was left behind on purpose by him. He was a little surprised why Liu Yujue was there, so he walked back and asked casually, "Yujue, why are you still here?"

Liu Yujue bowed his head and replied: "Duke, the humble official has something to discuss with Huang Shilang, so Su Mo will stay."

Xia Xun suddenly said: "Oh, is it the work of the gunsmith? Let's go, this is not a place to talk, let's go to the Ministry of Industry together."

Xia Xun's bodyguard led the horse over, Liu Yujue hurriedly took a step forward, took the reins from the bodyguard, led the horse to Xia Xun's side, and said respectfully, "Your Majesty, please get on the horse."

Xia Xun was not polite, and stretched out his hand to pull the saddle. Liu Yujue stretched out his arm and sent Xia Xun onto the horse. When the rein came to Xia Xun's side, when he was half a horse behind, he reined in and waited, and stopped going forward, just like a general of the Yang family, but to him, it was very natural, as if it had been a scripture.

Huang Ligong, the servant of the Ministry of Industry, saw it in his eyes, and couldn't help secretly marveling, this Jinyiwei Nan Zhenfu must be a close friend of Duke Fu.Fu Guogong is not the boss of his own yamen, but he is called a lowly post rather than a low-ranking official, which shows that they are close to each other. Now, as the governor of a yamen, he is willing to be Yang Xu's horse boy..." In Huang Ligong's heart, to Fu The Duke’s evaluation is a little higher.~

His servants led the horse, Huang Ligong got on the horse, and subconsciously fell half a horse behind, one left and one right with Liu Yujue, the one who went to the Ministry of Industry, he, the servant of the Ministry of Industry, became like a follower.

When they arrived at the Ministry of Industry, Xia Xun didn't bother Shangshu Zheng Ci, but went to Huang Ligong's signing room with Liu Yujue. The guests and hosts sat down, and they served tea. What is going on now, the emperor attaches great importance to it, but there is no delay. I came today to hear the details."

Huang Ligong knew that he was looking for him for this purpose, so he quickly asked someone to fetch the blueprint, and asked Xia Xun to come forward, pointing and introducing: "Please look, my lord, the former site of the Temple of Mercy, with a radius of nine miles and thirteen steps, has been completely cleared out." Now, according to the plan, the foundation is being laid. The foundation is completely built in accordance with the requirements of the palace building. The foundations of the main halls and auxiliary halls are driven into thick wooden piles, and then set on fire to turn them into charcoal. Compacted with rolling stones.

A layer of ground was cut off, covered with charcoal, and cinnabar on top to prevent moisture and insects, and then stone slabs were added. Inside the temple wall, more than 20 palaces, more than 26 galleries, and more than [-] sutra rooms are to be built.In addition, even if the old pagoda is demolished, a nine-level five-color glazed pagoda will be built. This pagoda is going to be built with nine floors and eight sides, with a height of [-] feet. I can see clearly.

The body of the pagoda is pasted with white porcelain, the arched door is glazed, the door frame is decorated with lions, white elephants, flying sheep and other Buddhist auspicious animals, and the top of the temple is inlaid with gold and silver jewelry.full text

Two 150 wind chimes are hung under the corner beams.The inner wall of the tower body is carved with Buddha gold, and 140 ever-burning lighthouses are built on the tower, which are always bright day and night. It is estimated that 64 catties of lamp oil can be consumed a day... "

Speaking of this, Huang Ligong smiled and explained: "This pagoda was proposed by Master Zuo Shanshi Daoyan, the monk recorder. You will be famous all over the world!"

Xia Xun nodded. He didn't expect that Senglusi also proposed a renovation plan for the pagoda. He thought he wanted to keep the old pagoda that was more than ten feet high in the temple. From Huang Ligong's introduction, Xia Xun couldn't help but think of the movie "The Empire of Tongtian" The Tongtian Pagoda in the palace, if this tower is built, it should be very spectacular?

Although Xia Xun came from later generations, he has no impression of this tower, so now he can only imagine it.In fact, this pagoda was indeed built, and it was indeed famous all over the world. Later, European businessmen, tourists and missionaries came to Nanjing. After seeing this magnificent pagoda, they called it "Nanjing Porcelain Pagoda." It is comparable to the Colosseum, the Underground Mausoleum of Alexander, and the Leaning Tower of Pisa, and is called one of the seven wonders of the medieval world.

The reason why Xia Xun knew nothing about such a famous pagoda was because during the internal strife in the Taiping Heavenly Heaven, the Northern King Wei Changhui was worried that Shi Dakai's troops would occupy the commanding heights of this pagoda and shoot into the city, so he ordered this world-famous magnificent building to be blown up up.Later generations have never seen its spectacular weather.

Xia Xun asked some more about the situation. Under the auspices of the Ministry of Industry, the entire Dabaoen Temple is being built step by step. He is engaged in construction. Huang Shilang is a professional talent, and Xia Xun is a layman. I wanted to ask what difficulties I encountered, and it was his turn to come forward at this time. As the host, his main role was to communicate and coordinate with all parties to ensure the smooth progress of the project.

Liu Yujue had been sitting by the side, listening quietly, and he didn't mention his own matter until Xia Xun finished asking about it.Although the firearms craftsmen are all in charge of Jinyiwei South Town Fusi, in fact, the main reason is to keep it secret. Firearms are the military industry secrets of Ming Dynasty, but the firearms craftsmen are only responsible for the research, development, and manufacture of firearms. Many upstream supplies and materials need other departments. cooperation.The entire manufacturing process involves metallurgy, forging, and chemistry, which cannot be accomplished by a firearms craftsman alone.

Xia Xun is not in charge of this, but he sees the significance of firearms farther than anyone in this era, even Emperor Yongle, who has keenly recognized the sharpness of firearms and spared no effort to promote the development of firearms, is here Not as good as him at all.Hearing the development of firearms, Xia Xun immediately pricked up his ears.

Consciously or not, Liu Yujue always put his attention on Xia Xun. Originally, he was worried that Xia Xun would not be interested in it, and he was afraid of delaying his time. Seeing Xia Xun's interest, he changed his mind and spoke in detail.

Although Da Ming was masculine, Xia Xun obviously had no interest in it. If Xia Xun didn't like it, he wouldn't do it.So he didn't dare to let Xia Xun feel his feelings. He buried everything deeply in his heart. As long as he could listen to Xia Xun's voice, or let Xia Xun listen to him, he would feel extremely satisfied and happy. If he was Such a deep love for a woman is really moving, but it's a pity that he is a man, and perhaps his biggest regret is that he is not a woman.

At this time, Empress Xu had already sent her younger sister out of the palace. The more she thought about it, the more serious the matter was, but her husband was reviewing the memorials in the Jinshen Palace. When Zhu Di was dealing with state affairs, Empress Xu would not disturb him with family and private affairs. She could only wait anxiously, waiting for her husband to come back, and discuss a way together to save the confused little girl who fell in love!

"Little girl, don't worry!"

Thinking of her sister, Empress Xu couldn't help sighing deeply.This little girl has lost her mother, and the age gap is too big. Although she is a younger sister, she loves her mother and daughter, but she can't treat her like a daughter. Therefore, Empress Xu loves and spoils her very much, but it is not like discipline. As strict as a daughter, as long as she wants, the eldest sister can't wait to meet all her requirements.

However, it is impossible to agree to such an absurd request. This is not only related to the dignity of the royal family and the dignity of the Xu family. In the long run, Empress Xu feels that she is not good for her sister. , It seems that as long as you can be with the man you love, life is so simple, I can't think of it now, and there will be more troubles in the future.

Perhaps it is difficult for us to understand that at that time, marrying a person was allowed to have three wives and four concubines. Not only did men take it for granted, but women were also used to it. Empress Xu didn't care whether Yang Xu had concubines, why should she care that he had two wives?In fact, this is not the case, because concubines have no status. In a more well-behaved family, concubines are not much more noble than maidservants, but it is different if they have the word "wife".

It's like a person who has had a girlfriend before, and the two have had a relationship. It doesn't have much influence on him to start a family, but he has been married twice, and then married a third time. Even if the woman doesn't care, her parents can Do you mind?In the end, after further inquiry, this man not only married twice, but also failed to complete the divorce procedures with his ex-wife. The woman's fatherly heart...

Xia Xun has two wives, which is how it feels to Empress Xu.

Ming'er entered the palace this time in a sedan chair, and when she got on the sedan chair, remembering that she finally revealed her true feelings to her sister, and her sister also agreed to help, she couldn't help but feel elated.

The sedan chair was swinging slowly, and her heart was also swinging leisurely. In a trance, it seemed that she had already put on a phoenix crown and Xiapei, and sat on the sedan chair, with the sound of locks ticking in her ears....

The more the little girl thinks about it, the happier she becomes, and the sweeter she thinks about it, but this kind of happiness can't be shared with anyone, that feeling... really uncomfortable!

She lifted the corner of the car curtain lightly, looked at the pedestrians and the street scene passing by outside the window, it became more and more difficult to contain the desire in her heart, and suddenly ordered out of nowhere: "Go to Fuguo Gongfu!"

Qiao Yun followed the sedan chair, and when she heard the young lady's order, she immediately raised her hand and said, "Young lady, please go to Fu Guogong's mansion!"

Ming'er quickly put down the car curtain, blushing and thinking with a beating heart: "I..., I went to see Si Yang and Si Xun, and I didn't go to see him on purpose, so it should be fine, I don't even know if he is at home, y... Should be at home?"
