Rule the Roost in the Tang Dynasty: Twenty-Five Source


Under the gaze of Chengyang and Xue Geng, Li Hong vaguely told them what happened in the palace while eating. They spent a long time and finally they were After understanding the ins and outs of the matter, he stared at Li Hong who didn't care and was still stuffing chicken legs in his mouth.

"You are a careless little thing, are you trying to scare your mother to death? No wonder you hid, alas...you said why you are so careless!" Chengyang's face was a little bloody. Now, Qiang Zi calmed down, still trembling when speaking.

This matter can be big or small. In her opinion, it seems that the big and small things have been reduced in the court. But if Wu Mei wants to do something in the harem, or if the little guy in front of him wants to go further, it is inevitable that people in the future will not talk about the incident. At that time, even if his father wanted to help him, he would be powerless if he faced all the courtiers and all the gold.

Chengyang looked at each other with his husband Xue Geng. The two have been married for many years, and there is still a tacit understanding that they should have, and they understood each other's thoughts in an instant.

Xue Yan said: "You can make up your mind."

"Well, then, just help this little guy once, who told me to like this little thing in my heart." Cheng Yang nodded helplessly, sighed and watched Xue Yan get up and leave.

Then I turned my head to take a look. I couldn’t help but get angry. I was anxiously discussing with my husband about his affairs. The little thing was still stuffing his mouth nonchalantly, and his maid’s sleeves were all caught by him. It was treated as a rag, and the wipes were all greasy, sitting right next to her, letting the little thing wipe her hands with her sleeves.

Chengyang suddenly became hot. He got up and grabbed Li Hong’s ears and gritted his teeth and said: "You are a careless little thing, my aunt is anxious for you. It's okay for you, and you still want to eat and drink here. Tell me, where is your usual cleverness? Don’t you know how serious this matter is? It’s still a month, a month where do you go to find such precious and rare things."

"Oh... it hurts, aunt, please let go first, oh, Hong'er's ears are about to fall out." Li Hong had to spit out the meat in a wasteful mouth, grinning to Chengyang for mercy.

"It hurts. It doesn't have a long memory to hurt you. Every time your mother talks about you, you sigh, but you don't know how to fight. It's really hard for your mother to work so hard for you in the harem!"

"Oh, aunt, you and my mother are good, you don't need to teach me so hard, I said I knew I was wrong." Li Hong felt that Chengyang's hands were loose and his ears were not so. It hurts.

Chengyang let go of Li Hong's hand and saw Xue Guan, who had just left, walked in with a precious wooden box, and said to Chengyang: "I have sent someone to inform Princess Lanling. I guess I should be able to come over in a while."

"Nafujun told her to take things with her?" Chengyang slapped Li Hong's **** fiercely, and the little guy began to wipe the greasy hands with his maid again.

Chengyang took the box in Xue Yan's hand, and Li Hong looked at the expressions of the two people strangely, as if someone had cut the meat of the couple.

"Here you, take it back and give it to your father. You can say anything from your father, even if you say it was picked up, don't say it was given to you by your aunt." Chengyang told the maid, Clean up the leftover food on Li Hong's desk, put the wooden box on the bright desk and push it to Li Hong.

"What is this? Is it for me? Why don't you let my father know? Will my mother know?" Li Hong asked several questions.

Li Hong's human and animal harmless, good-looking baby smiled angrily at Chengyang, who had a pretty face, and said with a sneer: "The pagoda you fell today is a gift from the Persians to your grandfather. , When your aunt married, your grandfather gave one to your aunt, and your grandfather gave another one to Lanling. Don’t worry, your aunt has already notified Aunt Lanling, and she will bring you hers too. "

When Li Hong heard this, he immediately shook his head and shook his hands, and said anxiously as if swinging: "Don’t don’t don’t, it’s too expensive, you should keep it. This was given to you by Grandpa Emperor, I don’t I dare to, if my father knows about it, I won’t break my leg."

"You still know that you are afraid. If you know that you are afraid, why did you break in anger..."

"Wait, Auntie, you said this was given to Grandpa Emperor by the Persians?" Li Hong suddenly remembered something, interrupting Chengyang and asked.

"Yes, what's wrong, what's the problem?" Chengyang asked strangely.

Li Hong opened the wooden box and saw that there was a pagoda lying in it, exactly the same as the pagoda he had broken in Linhu Hall, so he asked strangely: "Isn't this unique to Guizi country? Why Persia There will be people too? Guizi country also gave these to the Persians?"

Xue Yan smiled, carefully took out the pagoda inside, and wiped the non-existent dust on it. If it weren't for Chengyang to give it to Li Hong today, he planned to inherit this treasure.

So he explained to Li Hong: "This multi-pagoda is indeed from Persia, not Guizi. Guizi took out such a precious treasure this time to offer to Your Majesty, I am afraid that he has something to ask for your Majesty. As for this multi-pagoda is It was not made by Gui Ziguo itself, or it was a big question. It is said that Persia gathered the craftsmen of this pagoda in a secret place and never allowed them to contact the outside world. The purpose is to maintain the unique texture of the pagoda. "

Li Hong didn't look at the Duo Pagoda in Linhu Temple. At this moment, he took it from Xue Gao, and carefully looked at the carved portrait on Duo Pagoda and said: "How do I feel that this Duo Pagoda is not made by a craftsman from the Western Regions? On the contrary, is it more like my Datang craftsman made?"

Xue Yan smiled and said firmly: "Impossible, this is the pride of their Persia. All the craftsmen and productions are the secrets of Persia, let alone made by my Datang craftsmen."

Li Hong stared at the Duobao Linglong Pagoda, then looked up at the Chengyang couple, scratching his head in annoyance, and said puzzledly: "Since you are so sure, my uncle, then you can explain to me what is depicted on the base of this tower. The Xumi seat, the lotus seat, the octagonal thirteen layers of dense eaves, and the twenty-four niches on each floor are more like the meaning of Tang Buddhism?"

Xue Guan was stunned, and Chengyang was also stunned, this... how is this possible? Why has no one ever questioned these? Now that Li Hongyi reminded me to carefully study the sculptures on the Duobao Linglong Pagoda, it suddenly seemed that there were indeed many flaws. Everything on this pagoda was indeed portrayed in accordance with the understanding of the Dharma of the Tang Dynasty.

Li Hong looked at the dumbfounded expressions of the two of them, and continued: "Also, the Big Wild Goose Pagoda built by the emperor's father, don't you think there are too many similarities with this exquisite pagoda? Look again. Look at the characters engraved on all sides of the base. Why are they not Persian but my Datang characters?"

Li Hong turned the Duobao Linglong Pagoda and slowly said: "The front of this tower is engraved with the words'Wanshou Pagoda'. If this side is south, then the east side must be carved with the words'Calming Emperor's Picture'. Yes, the north is naturally'True Merciful Hongfan', and the west must be'Phaeton Sun and Moon', aunt, do you remember what my father said when he ordered the construction of the Big Wild Goose Pagoda in memory of my grandmother? ?"

Chengyang was shocked by Li Hong’s commentary and was speechless. He grabbed the Duobao Linglong Pagoda in Li Hong’s hand and looked at it carefully. It turned out that those 15 characters were engraved on all sides. These 15 characters were Li Hong’s Zhi, the words you want to engrave on the base of the Big Wild Goose Pagoda, are used to commemorate the mother's queen.

"This...?" Chengyang stared at Li Hong blankly. He didn't expect that there were so many secrets hidden in so many pagodas.

"Obviously, these multi-pagodas were made by the craftsmen of my Datang. A very small possibility is: "Unless they specially made them for me, Grandpa Emperor, so I carved these Chinese characters." But so what? Explain, is it the fifteen characters my father said? Obviously, there is only one possibility. It was made by my Datang craftsman, even the first batch of craftsmen who built the Wild Goose Pagoda back then!" Li Hong put Duobao Pagoda in a wooden box ~IndoMTL.com~ and closed the lid, and at the same time made a conclusion on the origin of Duobao Linglong Tower.

Xue Yan closed his eyes and pondered. Li Hong’s guess was even completely correct. This tower was made by the craftsmen of the Datang, but why did it never appear in the Tang Dynasty, but came from far away Persia? ?

"This matter may only be asked by the Ministry of Engineering or the person who will be the supervisor. As long as you find the list of the first batch of craftsmen who built the Big Wild Goose Pagoda, you can know who made the tower." Xue Lun Opened his eyes and said.

Chengyang was dumbfounded and apparently fell into the memories of the year. It was not until Li Hong's little hand swayed before her eyes that Chengyang's soul was recalled.

Chengyang patted Li Hong's swaying little hand, and said angrily: "What's the point of using it carefully? Is it possible that you can still glue the broken tower together? You still think about it. Now, after your Aunt Lanling comes, will your little **** be smashed by Lanling."

"No, I told the result of my guess, I just want my aunt not to worry about me, maybe we Datang, we can find the same Dubao Linglong tower." Li Honglaan Yang Yang leaned on the desk, put his chin on the wooden box and said.

"Princess Lanling is here." The home sent a loud voice far in from the door.

"I'm going to meet my aunt, don't go." Li Hong hurriedly got up from the case table. In order to prevent his small **** from being beaten, it is necessary to please Lanling, which is always simple.

"This is the etiquette, Lanling is here, I can still sit as the master." Chengyang took Li Hong's hand and walked to the front courtyard, Xia Zhi closely followed Li Hong. On one side, after leaving the palace, the responsibilities of their close court ladies and eunuchs were suddenly revived. It was their real duty to protect the king.
