Chapter 16

He was succeeded by a commoner, and when he ascended the throne, there were many remnants of the old ministries making troubles in the court, and the situation was very difficult for a time.

"The freezing rain continued for half a month, and many people suffered from disasters. Large areas of overwintering crops froze to death. Until the morning of Fuguang's birth, the freezing rain miraculously stopped. Afterwards, there was a good news from the frontier, and the rumors about my unworthy virtue gradually subsided."

There are many people in the hall, all of whom were witnesses back then.

His Majesty was very worried because of the freezing rain that was rarely seen in a century in the southern dynasty. Every day, he held court meetings in the Taiji Palace. Before dawn, the courtiers would rush to the palace gate. When the time came, the palace gate would open and enter the Meridian Gate. , Arrived at the Tai Chi Hall, and discussed matters with His Majesty.

When Princess Fuguang was born, the court meeting had not yet ended.

First, there was the pattering freezing rain, which stopped without any warning, and then, the clouds and rosy clouds broke out from the sky, and Zhang Dequan came to report that the imperial concubine had given birth.

Tai Shiling calculated the time, and all the auspiciousness came with the birth of Princess Fuguang. He immediately shouted: "A day with virtue is auspiciousness from heaven."

Many ministers in the court firmly believe that Princess Fuguang is auspicious from heaven.

Empress Lin tightly clenched her palms. Her Majesty's words seemed to agree with Ji Ruxuan's words, and attributed the credit for Duke Cheng'en's mansion to the auspicious auspiciousness descended from the sky to protect the Southern Dynasty.

The hall fell silent.

Emperor Nanxing looked at Ji Ruxuan again: "According to what you said, how does the Southern Dynasty compare to the Northern Dynasty?"

One is the native land where he was born and raised.

One is the enemy country that makes him a proton.

The soundless silence spread in the Taiji Hall, all the eyes of the hall were on him, even Jiang Fuguang wanted to see how he would answer.

Facing the condescending majestic gaze of Emperor Nanxing, Ji Ruxuan slowly raised his eyes: "Xuan, as a proton, when he stepped into the land of the Southern Dynasty, he could no longer regard himself as a royal family and dare not talk about his homeland."

Emperor Nanxing seemed dissatisfied with his answer: "I, forgive you for your innocence."

The majesty of the emperor spread silently in the palace, all civil and military officials were silent, but gloating eyes fell on Ji Ruxuan.

The air in the hall was almost frozen.

"For this glass of wine, I borrow flowers to present the Buddha," Ji Ruxuan lifted his clothes and knelt down, raising the cup in his hand high, with a clear and clear voice, "I respect the benevolence and wisdom of His Majesty the Southern Dynasty."

As soon as the words fell, he raised his head and drank the wine in the glass in one gulp.

Everything is without words.

There was silence at the palace banquet.

The officials of the Northern Dynasties looked at the princes of their own country and bowed their heads to the emperors of other countries, and they felt very uncomfortable.

for a long time!

Ji Ruxuan kept kneeling all the time, and everyone stared at him unscrupulously, either mocking, despising, disdaining, or ridiculing him, but he remained motionless.

The brilliant lights at the palace banquet seemed to be gathering on him, but it made him more lonely, cold and lonely.

I don't know how long it took before Emperor Nanxing smiled, and said slowly: "Be flat, you are a distinguished guest at my Southern Dynasty banquet today, so there is no need to perform such a grand ceremony."

Tomorrow, you must always remember your identity as a proton.

"Xuan, thank you for your majesty's grace." After the proton entered another country, he could no longer claim to be a royal.

Ji Ruxuan got up slowly, returned to her seat, and when she raised her head, she met Jiang Jingzhang's gloomy gaze.

He bent his lips and smiled a bit nastyly.

After drinking for three rounds, the atmosphere in the venue gradually warmed up.

Now comes the highlight of the palace banquet.

More than a dozen beauties covered in tulle, holding the rare treasures presented by the Northern Dynasties, are like a fish. The northern women are not as petite and exquisite as the southern women. As soon as he entered the palace, he attracted the souls of many people.

The aloof Emperor Nanxing set his sights on the treasure presented by the beauty.

The color is pure yellow and flawless, and the Bahrain seal stone is as delicate as a baby's skin.

According to legend, the Lantian water beryl was used to make the Jade Seal of the Chuan Kingdom.

Benzoin, a holy object produced in the country of Sabbath.

Tianshan snow lotus.

……

Jiang Fuguang, who was used to seeing good things, couldn't help shaking his eyes, his eyes fell on a string of ocher hand beads, he didn't guess what it was?

Ji Ruxuan raised his eyebrows and smiled at Jiang Fuguang: "Princess, you have a unique vision."

It can be seen that he was also looking at this string of bracelets just now.

Jiang Fuguang was really curious: "This princess is so ignorant, I don't know what kind of strange thing this string of bracelets is?"

"It's Qianhexiang." Ji Ruxuan looked a little complicated, as if thinking of something, and smiled slightly with his chin up: "The "Tianxiang Biography" says that Taoist scriptures say that when the sage burns hundreds of precious incenses and the innocent emperor burns Qianhe incense, they are Taoist immortals. The incense burned by the gods is blended with a thousand kinds of fragrant medicinal materials, and made into incense beads, which can be worn for a long time to lighten the body, reduce illness, and prolong life."

There are clear records of Qianhexiang, which can be traced back to the Western Han Dynasty. Taoism flourished in the Tang Dynasty. There are also related records in Wang Xuanhe's "Three Pearl Cave Nang".

After that, there is no record.

Qianhexiang was lost.

The fragrance and medicine are of the same origin, and the compatibility of the fragrance and medicine should also pay attention to the monarch, ministers and assistants, so that the nature of the fragrance and medicine can be integrated, and the unity of man and nature, how grand it is, Jiang Fuguang didn't even dare to think about it.

Ji Ruxuan continued: "This Qianhe incense was passed down from the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty."

"It is recorded in ancient books that most of the incense sticks are burned, but there is no record of incense beads." Jiang Fuguang felt that when Ji Ruxuan mentioned Qianhe incense, his tone was unspeakably subtle, and maybe there is no certain origin.

An envoy from the Northern Dynasties was eloquently introducing these rare and rare treasures, and happened to mention Qian Hexiang: "...this rare treasure was handed down from the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, and then wandered in the north, where it was collected in the Yu family of the former Taiwei Mansion. "

It was originally an old item of the Yu family.

In the past, the Yu family lived and died for the Northern Dynasty. Now the Northern Dynasty presents the old things of the Yu family to the Southern Dynasty. The achievements that the Yu family made for the Northern Dynasty in the past have all become a joke.

The Yu family has fallen to this point, and the Northern Dynasty did not even leave the last decency and dignity to the Yu family. I don't know what Ji Ruxuan was thinking when he introduced Qian Hexiang to her just now.

Even Jiang Fuguang couldn't help but feel cold, and glanced at Ji Ruxuan.

He lowered his black eyes, gently turning the cup in his hand, with a faint smile on his lips, as if he was listening to an unimportant topic.

At this moment, Emperor Nanxing turned his head to look at Jiang Fuguang: "Do you like any of these rare treasures?"

Jiang Fuguang restrained his thoughts, looked back and forth between benzoin, and Qianhexiang, and pointed at Qianhexiang: "Father, my son, looking at this Qianhexiang, the texture is fat and smooth, and the color seems to be non-existent. , very much to my liking."

Emperor Nanxing knew that she liked the fragrance: "Since you like it, I will reward you," he said while pointing to several rare treasures from the Southern Dynasty, "These treasures from the Northern Dynasty are also rewarded."

No matter how well-bred Empress Lin is, her complexion inevitably froze, and she echoed: "Your Majesty really loves Fuguang."
