310 Princess fanwai Anle (4)
On a whim, my mother asked me to accompany her to Putuo temple in Xicheng to offer incense, saying that she wanted to ask for a Bodhisattva to manage marriage for me.
I was about to find an excuse to refuse. Before I could speak, my mother immediately took out her trump card and looked at me with tears. It looked like I was unfilial if I didn't go. I had no choice but to accept it.
Putuo temple in Xicheng is the temple with the most incense in the capital. The host of the temple is an old monk with great personality and not afraid of dignitaries. The old host has always advocated the equality of all living beings. All beggars are treated equally from heaven to heaven. Even if the mother comes in person, she can only go in alone and leave a group of bodyguards waiting outside.
I reluctantly followed my mother to answer a Mao in front of the Bodhisattva and slipped out on the pretext of going out for a hairdryer. In front of the temple stood a large group of bodyguards with tiger backs and waist. They were so blocked that even a fly could not fly in. It was really frustrating.
I slipped out of the back door of the temple quietly with my skirt. The weather was fine. I hadn't seen such a blue sky for a long time. Looking up at the sky from the palace always had an unspeakable sense of depression. I took a deep breath. The air after the rain was always the freshest, mixed with the fragrance of petals and soil.
On the hillside not far away, there is a Wild Begonia in full bloom, which is different from the regular flowers and plants that always grow in the imperial palace. This Wild Begonia looks quite wild. On a whim, I went to the Wild Begonia and wanted to break one for my mother to play with. It was also a gift to the Buddha.
But as soon as I took a step with my skirt, a strong wind suddenly hit behind me. I knew it was bad. When I was about to shout for help, I suddenly lost consciousness after a sudden pain in the back of my brain.
Half asleep and half awake, I seemed to be put on a bumpy carriage and there was a mess around me. An old man with a white beard came to my bed and said to me, "you are destined to have a love debt owed in your previous life. Now it's still time to pay the debt."
I couldn't understand what he said. I thought about it. There was such a paragraph in the book I read the day before yesterday. It was also a fate in a previous life. Jiang Zhuxian grass received the irrigation grace of the waiter Shenying. In this life, she turned into a Suzhou beauty Lin Daiyu and went to Jia's house to find Jia Baoyu who had been reborn as the second son of the Jia family.
Is it the story of stone here?
The old man who performed the old fairy in front of me worked very hard, so I knew it very well and then said, "he is the benefit of dew. I don't have this water to return him. He will be a man in the next life, and I will be a man in the next life, but I will return all the tears of my life to him and repay him."
The old man with white beard stared at me, and his mouth seemed to say something about neuropathy and abnormal brain. Anyway, I didn't understand it at all. The old man with white beard complained about casting pearls before swine. After talking with ducks, he disappeared with a whoosh, leaving the cow in his mouth lying alone on the bed and continuing to faint.
When I woke up, I was already in a cold sweat. Just about to call the maid of Ming'an palace to dress me, I suddenly found something wrong.
It doesn't look like the golden nanmu bed I'm used to sleeping in. It's hard and hurts my neck. The clothes of these people around me don't seem to be the palace maids I'm used to seeing. These women wear heavy makeup one by one. The powder on their faces is three feet thick. When they talk, the powder falls down.
Which family member is this? How did you dress up so exaggerated?
These women are still shouting "don't run, sir". What is it, sir? It looks so weird here.
Before I could react, the crazy woman who shouted "Sir, don't run" ran over and hit me. The weight difference made me almost fly out.
Fortunately, someone helped me. I staggered and stood firm. I turned back and smiled at the kind-hearted man, "thank you."
The kind-hearted person is a beautiful little sister. She smiled at me: "what do you think? Are you better? "
I smiled and nodded and talked to her. According to the little sister, when she got up to practice the piano in the morning, she found me fainting outside the door and there was no one around. Then she picked me up.
”Where is this place? "I asked curiously.
Miss Wen said, "Wu Di, listening to the girl's accent, it seems that she is not from here."
I screamed in my heart. Wu is an important place in the southwest of our Dynasty. It covers a large area and is the most important part of the vast territory of our Dynasty. Wu has been an independent country since ancient times. Although it nominally belongs to our Dynasty, it actually becomes a country itself.
The people of Wu are brave and good at fighting. At the beginning, the generals of our Dynasty fought against the state of Wu, killing and wounding countless people. Although Wu finally became a minister to our court, the people in Wu suffered from the war. It is said that they all wanted to eat their blood and meat when we mentioned the Huo family. Personally, I think the people in Wu obviously hate the wrong object. It is He Jia, the actual master of Wu, who asked them to fight and die. They cut over with swords. My soldiers will have to resist. However, it is unreasonable for them to hate the Huo family instead of the culprit Wu Hou.
So I can't easily expose my identity. If I change to another place, maybe I can take out the jade pendant in my arms and tell these people that Princess Anle is here. You people are really lucky. Whoever can send me back to the capital safely will be rewarded by my mother and brother.
But in this place, if I call myself Princess Anle, I'm afraid I'll be smashed into meat and mud by these people in front of me.
I pretended to be distressed and carefully stuffed the jade pendant in my arms into the innermost layer of my clothes.
It seems that my sister doesn't know why I suddenly came to the ghost place of Wu from the capital thousands of miles away, and she is very curious about me. I'm afraid she will reveal the truth if she asks again. I can only respond to changes with the same attitude, pretending that I have a severe headache and sitting there quietly pretending to be mute.
My mother once said that no matter how big things happen, the first thing is to keep calm. Panic is not good at all, so I sat there quietly like a chicken and watched people's every move in front of me.
The little sister was dressed in green Luo clothes and was playing a song of picking Wei. The music slowly flowed out like running water, curling full of everyone's ears. There was a feeling of big beads falling on the jade plate between the inching fingers. I was also very intoxicated. However, there were always one or two tones falling between the beginning and the turning points of the song, which could not be heard by people who were not proficient in music. According to my little sister's piano skills, I should not make such a mistake. I was a little strange in my heart and looked up at the young lady playing music.
The little sister's eyes seemed to look at the heroic figure on the throne. The man was well-dressed, handsome and handsome. Whenever the young lady played wrong, the man looked at her with a slight frown.
The song is wrong, Zhou Langgu. It turns out that my little sister has a heart, so she deliberately plays it wrong.
I snickered to myself and looked around again. The decoration here is really too strange. Men and women look very indecent. I finally couldn't restrain my curiosity and grabbed the sleeve of a passer-by: "dare you ask, where is this place?"
The man looked at me from head to foot with a bad look, and his eyes were very uncomfortable: "chick, don't you know why? This is naturally a place for men to have fun..."
"It's also a place that can make your women happy..." he looked at me like a beast of prey. I couldn't help shrinking. Behind me was a solid wall. I had no way out.
The wretched man was about to rush over. I picked up a brick to fight with the disgusting man, but an orange figure suddenly appeared next to me. An enchanting woman with heavy makeup pulled the wretched man's ear: "you ungrateful bastard, agreed to love only my mother forever, and seduced other women in front of my mother..."
The wretched man's face was painfully taken away by the enchanting woman's ear. I stood there blankly with bricks in my hand. The enchanting woman turned her head and showed me a disdainful look: "little girl film, how can a woman who entered the brothel be clean? What innocence?"
Green... Brothel?
I was stunned. I only read it in books. The legendary brothel?
Why am I in such a strange place?
What are the people who knocked me out doing?
Countless questions immediately came to my mind. Although I don't know the purpose of those people who knocked me out and brought me to Wu, I can only be sure that these people are definitely not out of good intentions.
I have to find a way to escape. Taking advantage of the noisy flow of people here is a good opportunity for me to sneak away. Princess Tang Anle appears in a ghost place like brothel. If it is spread, I'm afraid I'll lose the face of my ancestors for 18 generations.
But there was a sudden "Shh" sound downstairs. Just now, while playing the piano and flirting with others, the little sister was pale and helped out, and her right hand was blurred.
After all, she had a life-saving grace for me. After a little hesitation, I followed the crowd to see her injury.
Someone brought a basin of water and asked her to wash the blood off her hands. The little sister turned pale, rolled up her sleeves and put her hands in the water. A basin of water soon turned red. The little sister bit her lower lip, obviously suffering great pain, but restrained herself from making a sound.
She saw my shadow in the crowd and smiled hard at me.
I was stunned and approached her carefully. There was a wound scratched by the string on her right hand. The wound was almost bone deep. She must have endured great pain. With her piano skills, she shouldn't have made such a mistake. I'm afraid this hand can't play the piano for a while.
