Chapter 628 Royal Seniority


Chapter 628 Royal Seniority

Such a wonderful place in the world, even Fang Jun, who has been well-informed for two generations, cannot help but be amazed by it...

Du He fully demonstrated the quality of an excellent tour guide, pointing to this vast peach grove and introducing: "This peach grove was planted when Emperor Gaozu was in power. He didn't think much about it at the time, just because there were so few trees here. It was just grass and gravel, and it was inevitably not beautiful. Who would have thought that it would grow into the scenic spot it is today? ? It’s a little early in the season now, and there are still many peach trees that haven’t bloomed yet. If we wait a few more days, all the peach trees will be in full bloom. The spring breeze will blow, the fallen flowers will bloom, and the mountains and plains will be filled with literati and poets. I don’t know what they have left for Luoxia Temple. How much incense money and calligraphy poems.”

Fang Jun nodded secretly. Now that the Tang Dynasty is becoming more prosperous, the country is stable, and it is prosperous, it has become a trend for literati and writers to play with pen and ink, prompting more wealthy people to become arty, and gradually lead the popularity of writing style.

After looking around, Fang Jun said with great interest: "You have said something else. The abbot of Luoxia Temple is a shrewd businessman. Look at the peach groves in the back mountains and the peaches harvested every year. Even if a pound of peaches costs five cents, you can calculate how many pounds of peaches there are for so many peach trees and how much they cost..."

"Uh, this..."

Du He was choked and couldn't keep up with Fang Jun's thinking. It is natural for pilgrims to offer incense and donate some money for sesame oil. It is also the biggest source of income for temples and temples in the world. Poems written by literati and poets can greatly increase the reputation of the temple. This is understandable. But according to Fang Jun, imagine bald monks all over the mountains picking peaches to sell for money...

This is too inconsistent.

However, Du He was not a bookworm who followed the rules. He was just a little dazed. He imagined this bald monk buying peaches, and he couldn't help laughing. He bent over with laughter and almost burst into tears.

Fang Jun couldn't help but be speechless, this kid's point of laughter was too low...

Passers-by along the way were very surprised to see Du He squatting in the middle of the road laughing wildly. They were amazed and thought, could this man be a lunatic? I don’t know what is so funny that makes me laugh like this!

Fang Jun had a black streak on his face and wanted to hide aside and tell passers-by, "We don't know him." I couldn't help but said angrily: "Stand up quickly, it's so embarrassing!"

Du He finally stopped laughing, held his stomach and stood up with difficulty, gasping and saying: "Fang Erlang, you are too wicked. Is there anyone who arranges monks like this? Others come to enjoy the flowers, enjoy the spring, and cultivate their sentiments. You Taking into account the harvest of this peach forest, it is simply vulgar. He is worthy of being the famous God of Wealth in Guanzhong! ”

Fang Jun rolled his eyes angrily, saying, "You're such a bastard. If you can, why don't you tell the monk not to sell peaches?"

The two of them talked and laughed and walked along the mountain road into the peach forest.

As Du He said, at least one-third of the buds in this peach blossom forest have not yet bloomed. Even so, the pink and bright red is like smoke, which is still pleasing to the eye.

I also met a lot of people along the way. Although there were men and women, most of the women were not good-natured. They all looked boldly into people's faces with a rather provocative look in their eyes. People in the Tang Dynasty were fond of poetry and wine, and they especially liked to take famous prostitutes to play and enjoy themselves in beautiful scenery...

Du He was a real pretty boy, dressed in silks, gold, and silver. He was young and rich, and he was most popular among the courtesans. Fang Jun's appearance and dress are a little worse, but no one dares to look down upon him because of his casual straight dress. His heavy and restrained temperament is more eye-catching than Du He.

In addition, the two men were followed not far behind by the generals and servants, and they looked like they were distinguished people. Therefore, along the way, I received countless gifts of attention, and many ladies from the kilns and famous prostitutes were sending frequent glances and hints.

Although Fang Jun was not hypocritical, Du He was also proud and arrogant. He was usually a famous prostitute in Beijing. How could he like such a vulgar fan?

The two of them were a little tired from walking, and Fang Jun said impatiently: "How far is it from where His Royal Highness the King of Wei is hosting a banquet?"

Du He raised his hand and pointed to a building hidden in a peach forest halfway up the mountain: "That's it."

Fang Jun looked into the distance, it was still thousands of meters away, and he felt a little regretful in his heart. Although I insist on exercising every day in the house, and the journey is not a problem, I originally had a perfunctory mentality, and now I have to walk such a long distance, it is inevitable that I would have stayed at the house and slept... …

But now that we have reached this point, there is no reason to give up halfway.

The mountain road is winding. Although it is not rugged, it has gentle twists and turns, allowing you to visit all the scenic spots in Taolin.

Suddenly a familiar voice came into my ears.

"You molest a decent woman in broad daylight. Do you still have the law in your eyes?"

The voice was crisp, but the tone was high-pitched and slightly angry.

Fang Jun frowned slightly, subconsciously speeding up his pace, secretly wondering: Does anyone dare to provoke her?

After turning a corner, there was an octagonal pavilion surrounded by peach trees. A young girl was standing in the pavilion, with a look of panic and anxiety on her pretty face. She was wearing an agarwood-colored water-weave tunic, a white polished silk skirt, and a gauze flower ornament on her head. She was pure and beautiful, with a touch of tenderness and euphemism. There was a table in front of her. On the table were several white porcelain plates with candied fruits in them. There was a young boy standing next to each of them to serve them. Two men who looked like guards were standing in front of the pavilion, glaring angrily, as if no one else was allowed to enter.

Fang Jun took a glance and recognized that the girl in the pavilion was the female member of the Xie family who fell into his arms in Qinglong Temple that day...

In front of the pavilion, two young men in gorgeous clothes had sinking faces, followed by a large group of servants, confronting the girl in the pavilion.

Opposite the two young men was a beautiful girl with a stunning face, it was Princess Gaoyang...

This girl is dressed in regular clothes, a silver-red Shu embroidered double-breasted coat with auspicious Ruyi patterns, underneath a moire sheepskin gold skirt with gold threads, a smooth forehead with an agate bead string, and a flower-like jade Her pretty face was as dark as the dark clouds before a rainy day, and her beautiful eyes stared fiercely at the leading young man.

A group of maids and guards gathered behind her.

Then I heard the young man at the head laughing and saying: "Oh, cousin, your crime is too serious. I can't bear it. By the way, isn't my cousin getting married? A big girl must act like a big girl. , running around when you are about to get married is not a virtuous thing, especially since the scenery of Luoxia Temple is beautiful. There are so many young people hanging around here. If my cousin gets a bad reputation, won't the second house be angry? But don't worry, cousin. If the second house doesn't want you anymore, you can just marry your cousin. I must love and take good care of my cousin, hahahaha..."

This man's tone was extremely frivolous, and his words were even more bold.

Fang Jun was a little surprised. He actually dared to tease the princess so blatantly. He was so brave that he knew no bounds!

Then he asked Du He next to him: "Who is this person?"

Du He was overjoyed and said gloatingly: "The eldest grandson of Shen Guogong Gao Shilian, Gao Ling is the eldest son of Princess Dongyang's consort Gao Xiuxi. Princess Gaoyang is both Gaoling's aunt and his cousin. They are real relatives."


Fang Jun was speechless, this generation is really chaotic...

Gao Shilian is the uncle of Queen Changsun and the uncle of His Majesty Li Er. Gao Shilian's eldest son, Gao Jinjin, is the brother-in-law and brother-in-law of His Majesty Li Er. Gao Shijin's son is the same generation as His Majesty Li Er's daughter. However, His Majesty Li Er married his daughter, Princess Dongyang, to Gao Xingxing, and the hierarchy became chaotic. Gao Fuling became the son-in-law of His Majesty Li Er, and Princess Gao Yang became Gao Fuling's sister-in-law. Naturally, Gao Ling, Gao Fuling's son, wanted to call Princess Gao Yang his aunt...

Fang Jun's mind was in a mess, but he finally smoothed the relationship.

As Princess Gao Yang's aunt, Gao Ling's words were extremely inappropriate. How could anyone dare to be so presumptuous with her aunt? But at the same time, Princess Gaoyang is also Gaoling's cousin. The cousin teases her a little bit, but it's really not a big deal...

Of course, any kind of relationship can be divided into distance and distance.

Before Princess Dongyang married Gao Xingyi, Princess Gaoyang was Gao Ling's cousin and she could say whatever she wanted. But Princess Dongyang is Gaoling's biological mother, and Princess Gaoyang is Gaoling's biological aunt. These words are treasonous anyway.

Fang Jun was surprised and said: "Does this man have no brains? How dare he say such a thing? Why shouldn't Gao Jixiang beat him to death?" (End of Chapter)
