Traveling through: The down-and-out beauty refuses to be cannon fodder

Chapter 25
Xu Chun looked at Yuan Zhi's half-hidden face under the bamboo hat, and raised his eyebrows slightly: he is still a knowledgeable one.

Xu Chun smiled and stretched out his right hand: "Then it's settled, mutual benefit, high-five as an oath."

Fang Yuanzhi hesitated for a moment and then clapped three times.

Xu Chun's hands were dry and warm, and he didn't grab her hand to pretend to be teasing.

Xu Chun felt that Fang Yuanzhi's little hands were a little wet.

He secretly thought it was funny: The little girl is still a little nervous about big business, right?
After talking about the business, Xu Chun looked up at the leaning tower on Huqiu Mountain and said, "Since you've come to Huqiu, why don't you go in and have a look? I've never visited before."

Fang Yuanzhi was surprised: "You are from Suzhou, but you have never been to Tiger Hill?"

She is a modern person who has traveled here in her previous life.It's just that it was a childhood thing, and I came here to play with my parents.

Revisiting the old place, I felt a lot of emotion in my heart.Although hundreds of years have passed, visiting the hometown can still touch the hometown, right?

Fang Yuanzhi stepped up.

Xu Chun said: "I studied art abroad since I was a child, and I didn't have many days in Suzhou." He also followed up the steps.

Fang Yuanzhi slandered: No wonder she is not close to her parents, and Mrs. Gu has not been persuaded to live her life like that.

Today is a cloudy day, and the trees on Huqiu Mountain are very cool and pleasant.In the Yunyan Temple built on the mountain, monks who knew guests came to guide them and tell them about the scenic spots.

Not far away is a small stone well.The Zhike monk said: "This is the well-known Hanhan spring in this temple. It is rumored that in the Liang Dynasty, the divine monk Hanhan dug this well spring. It is still clear and sweet, and there is a saying that 'the bottom of the well dives into the sea'."

After another section, on the east side of the uphill road, there is a huge stone that looks like it was cut open by someone, with the words "Sword Test Stone" engraved beside it, and a poem is engraved: "A sword test marks autumn, and the rock falls and the water stops. How can I not behead Zhao Gao after a hundred years?"

The Zhike monk explained: "This sword-testing stone, it is said that after King Helu of Wu received the "Moxie" sword presented by the general, he swung his sword to test the stone and split the big stone in two.

It is also said that Qin Shihuang came to Huqiu and tried the swords here after he dug up the fish intestines and swords buried for King Wu.It is said that Qin Shihuang went to Suzhou to look for the sword in the tomb of King Wu, but he couldn't find it, so he split the boulder into two in anger.

It is also said that Qin Huangfang wanted to dig the tomb and dig the sword, but saw a white tiger squatting in the tomb, so he pulled out the sword on his body and slashed at the white tiger, but he missed the tiger's body but chopped off a stone by mistake, leaving this mark.

The poem next to it was written by Gu Ying, a poet of the Yuan Dynasty. "

Fang Yuanzhi laughed and said, "This is obviously caused by the weathering of the stone, yet so many interesting stories have been reported?"

The Zhike monk heard Fang Yuanzhi's voice and knew that it was a female benefactor, his heart shivered slightly, and he lowered his head even lower.

Xu Chun glanced at her and said, "Miss Fang doesn't believe that a sword can split a stone?"

Fang Yuanzhi said solemnly: "I don't believe it. Even if it can be split, it will shatter the stone instead of leaving such a small crack."

But Xu Chun said: "As long as you are sincere, gold and stone can be opened. Ms. Fang should keep her eyes open."

Fang Yuanzhi listened to his puns, but didn't want to answer, and continued to move forward.

This sword-testing stone, she had played with her parents here in her previous life, and it was her father, an expert in geological exploration, who told her the origin of the cracks in this sword-testing stone, how could others question it?

Not far ahead is the tomb of Zhenniang.

Knowing that the monks didn't intend to introduce, Fang Yuanzhi asked deliberately: "Master, why don't you introduce the attractions here?"

The Zhike monk looked embarrassed and said: "This is the tomb of a famous geisha in the Tang Dynasty. Bai Juyi, a poet of the Tang Dynasty, once wrote a poem: Zhenniang's tomb, Huqiu Road. I don't know Zhenniang's face in the mirror, only see the grass on the head of Zhenniang's tomb The frost destroys the peaches and plums, the wind breaks the lotus, the real mother was still young when she died. Fat skin and catkins are not firm, and it is difficult to linger on the beauty of the world. It is difficult to linger, but it is easy to sell off.

Fang Yuanzhi knew that it would be unkind for a monk to discuss a geisha, so she kept silent.

But Xu Chun said: "It is said that this tomb of Zhenniang is as famous as the tomb of Su Xiaoxiao in Hangzhou. It is said that although this Zhenniang was a geisha, she sold herself as a performer and committed suicide in order to resist the oppression of the madam. .”

Fang Yuanzhi didn't know there was this allusion in it.She nodded and said: "This real mother has more backbone than many men." It is always easy to criticize others, but it is difficult to do it yourself.

If you really die for the sake of fame, some people will praise you for your noble character, while others will say you are stupid, saying that it is better to live than to die.

It's hard to say which way is right.

Those literati wrote books and said that they sell the character of loyal ministers, but when things come to an end, there are many people who turn against each other, so how can we talk about character?

Thinking of this, Fang Yuanzhi said: "Thinking about it this way, this true mother is the same kind of person as Yu Qian and Yu Shaobao who 'wanted to keep their innocence in the world'."

Xu Chun didn't speak.

The group visited Sun Wu's training platform, Huqiu Sword Pool, Helu Tomb, Yunyan Leaning Pagoda and other scenic spots, and came to a small pavilion with cornices in a quiet bamboo forest in the back mountain, and took a rest here.

A little novice offered tea and snacks, and the Zhike monk said: "This tea is grown by the temple itself, and it is called Yunyan tea. I invite the two benefactors to taste it."

After speaking, the Zhike monk and the little novice clasped their hands together, saluted and retreated.

Fang Yuanzhi thought of the military training platform, and the monk Zhike said that Fu Chai, the king of Wu, had killed three thousand craftsmen to be buried with He Lu, and the blood flowed all over the mountain, so he couldn't drink tea.

Maybe this tea is poured with blood?

Xu Chun sipped tea by himself, looked at Fang Yuanzhi who was frowning, and said, "Miss Fang really thinks that Yu Qian is a loyal minister through the ages?"

Fang Yuanzhi raised his eyebrows: "Isn't it?"

Xu Chun didn't answer, but said to himself: "Since ancient times, there have been many people who have followed what they said. I didn't expect Miss Fang to be such a superficial person."

Seeing him showing off Guan Zi, Fang Yuanzhi said, "Yuanzhi listened attentively, did you hear Mr. Xu has a good opinion?"

Because discussing cooperation matters with Xu Chun today is really a big deal, so she no longer calls her third uncle or something like that to avoid suspicion of marriage.It's the most fun to discuss the matter.

Seeing that she no longer referred to herself as the third uncle, Xu Chun smiled slightly: "When the Tumu Fortress was changed, the history books and folks said that the first emperor was also taken captive by Grand Master Wala. Does Miss Fang believe it?"

Fang Yuanzhi said heartily: These things, believe it or not, what does it have to do with me?
But she still nodded: "I believe it." The history books of modern society are written like this, is there any fake?

"Then you know, when the late emperor died in the Tumu Fort, the attacking generals, dressed in bright armor and armor, came out of Juyongguan and headed for the Tumu Fort."

Fang Yuanzhi was taken aback, and it took him a long time to figure out the meaning behind this.

What does Xu Chun mean by these words, the army that attacked the late emperor was actually the army of Ming Dynasty?
So it is not true that the civil fortress of the first emperor Zhu Qizhen was captured by the Wala people, but the truth is that it was attacked by the army of the Ming Dynasty?

The change of the civil castle, the capture of the emperor, was not an invasion by foreign enemies, but a mutiny within the Ming Dynasty? !
If this is the case, wouldn't the so-called defense of Yu Qian's capital become a battle to prevent the former emperor Zhu Qizhen from returning to the capital when Oala attacked the capital? !
