Chapter 8 The Ninth Young Master of Duke Rong's Mansion
The sun was slightly tilted, and the academy was also putting the evening school. Xie Yiling quickly walked through the crowd and out of the academy, then passed through the streets of the academy, and flocked into the crowded streets.
There was a shop called Chenji Pastry on the street. At this moment, there was a long queue. Seeing that he was coming, the boy wearing blue and gray narrow sleeves lined up in front of the long queue waved and shouted: "Xiao Ba, Xiao Ba is here!"
Xie Yiling took a look at the bag with the book book, then walked over, threw the bag to the servant of the book boy, and took out the broken silver from his arms. At this moment, the people in front of him happened to buy something, so he went forward.
"I want a portion of 100-fruit cake and a portion of red bean cake."
"Okay, the customer wait." The guy in the store quickly took the oil paper and packed the pastry, "A total of one, two or five cents."
One tael of silver is ten coins and one thousand coins for copper coins. These two portions of pastries cost one tael of liang and five coins. In this era when two cents can buy a vegetarian bun and four cents a meat bun, it is really too expensive for ordinary people.
However, in this imperial city, there are many people with a wealth of money. Chenji pastries are well made, so it is also a skill to be able to queue up every day.
Xie Yiling gave Qian Yin, then walked out of the crowd with the servant. Just as he was about to walk forward, his shoulder was knocked. When the two turned around, they saw a young man wearing a royal blue robe and a jade pendant tied around his waist standing behind them.
At this moment, the young master was holding a fan in his hand, smiling carelessly: "Oh, isn't this Xiao Ba Uncle? Buy pastries? Are you going to Changning Marquis' Mansion?"
Xie Yiling's eyelids twitched: "What's your business?"
Xie Yiling was wearing a green scholar's robe and looked elegant and handsome, but he was only ten years old this year and was still a young boy. His childishness had not yet subsided, but he liked to pretend to be mature with a stern face, which really made people want to tease him.
This person, especially as someone else's nephew, Xie Yu, who is already sixteen years old, is the most important.
"Oh, why is it not my business? Are you going to see your aunt? I'm just idle and go with you."
The Xie family has been passed down from the previous dynasty of the Great Qin Dynasty and has been passed down for more than two hundred years. As early as the Great Qin Dynasty, several famous scholars appeared, all of whom have been passed down through the ages.
More than 40 years ago, the Great Qin Weiwei, and the Xie family deeply felt that the Great Qin shortly after, they asked the Xie family to withdraw from the court, divided the Xie family into several branches, divided the family business and went their separate ways, and the one who still insisted on staying was the Xie family in the Emperor City.
More than 30 years ago, the Qin Dynasty was destroyed, and the Li family entered the world and took the name of the country Dongming, which means "the sun rises to the east, and the world is about to be bright", so it is called the Dongming Kingdom.
The Xie family offered wealth to the new emperor to seek peace. When the new emperor saw the Xie family, there were no court officials in the family, and there were several famous scholars in the ancestors. They were well-known famous scholars in the world. They were really not active. So when the old ministers and clans were settled, the Xie family relied on their ancestors to protect them steadily.
After the new emperor settled the old ministers and settled in the court to govern the world, he was only after years of war. Because of the different paths of the enemy and us, there were too many enemies and too few people who could use it. At that time, someone recommended that the old master of the Xie family, that is, Xie Yixiao's grandfather, enter the court. After thinking about it, the new emperor was sure.
After entering the court, this old man did a lot of practical things and made a lot of contributions to Dongming. When the world is stable, Old Master Xie is afraid that the new emperor will be suspicious, so he resigned because he is old.
As a result, the new emperor felt relieved of the Xie family, and the Xie family finally survived the crisis of the new and old dynasties.
Shortly after the old man resigned, his eldest son entered the court. Thirty years have passed, and the old man has already entered the country. The new emperor has also left. His eldest son has become the old man of the Xie family. He is nearly 60 years old and is appointed as the Grand Secretary of the Cabinet.
From the Great Qin to the Dongming, the Xie family was still the Xie family in the imperial city.
The children of the Xie family have always been polite and flattering, and their behavior is high-profile and low-key. The children in the family also flatter the ancestral teachings. Only Xie Yu is an exception, she is like a playboy from a powerful family.
The powerful clans have his friends, and the heroes from all walks of life have his brothers, riding horses, shooting archery, listening to music and fighting crickets, he is omnipotent and omniscient. If he is the most playful person in the imperial city, he dares to be the second, no one dares to be the first.
Every time Xie Yiling saw his nephew, who was a few years older than him, his head started to hurt again.
"Are you going?"
Xie Yiling couldn't say he didn't need to go, so he had to respond: "Go."
Xie Yu smiled, then waved to the back: "Rong Jiu, come on, I will take you to the Changning Marquis Mansion. It is said that Mr. Gu has raised a lot of crickets, let's go and have a look."
Cricket?
Xie Yiling's face turned black.
etc.
Rong Jiu?
Xie Yiling turned around and saw a young man standing under a willow tree not far away. The man was wearing a white robe with golden auspicious clouds and moons. He was tall and pine, and his temperament was cold and unpretentious. Just standing there, he was like the bright moon in the sky, bright and unpretentious, and cold.
But such a person is like a world that blends together. If he hadn't looked at it deliberately, few people would have noticed it.
At this moment, he turned his head and showed a handsome and timeless face. His demeanor was cold and unpretentious, as if there was no dust in front of the Buddha. When he walked, he was like the breeze blowing on the bright moon and the bright moon shining on the capital.
Is there someone like this in the Imperial City?
Xie Yiling paused and turned to ask Xie Yu: "Who is he?"
Xie Yu grinned and said, "You don't know this, he, the ninth son of Duke Rong's mansion."
Xie Yiling was surprised: "Who did he come back?"
The ninth son of the Duke Rong Guo’s mansion was scattered, and the youngest son of the Duke Rong Guo and his wife.
It is said that Duke Rong's wife had only such a young son in her thirty years. She should have been raised by a thousand favors, but when she was a child, he was weak and asked a master to tell fortunes, saying that he was not lucky and could not suppress the wealth of the Duke's mansion. If you want to grow up safely, you need to be clear about your cultivation.
So the Duke Rong's mansion sent the ninth prince to the temple to cultivate one's body and nature, and it is said that he has been practicing.
A few days ago, news came that he had passed the disaster and could return home. Duke Rong happily went to pick him up, but this man was determined to practice and said he would become a monk.
Mrs. Rong Guo was so angry that she had been sick for a long time.
Xie Yiling was a little surprised. Rong Jiu turned out to be like this.
However, it really has a bit of a clear mirror and no dust. If you want to say that Buddha nature may not be there, but the body is like a breeze and ancient pines, and the mind is clear and dust-free.
Xie Yiling was even more surprised when he thought of this. He turned to look at Xie Yu: "How did he get mixed up with you?"
Xie Yu knocked Xie Yiling's head with a fan: "How can you say you're so trash? It was Prince Rong who came to me personally, saying that he wanted me to take him to have fun and let him feel the fun of this world, not to think about becoming a monk all day long."
"This world is so interesting, rich, prosperous, and graceful. How can the ancient temple be compared to the ancient temple's cultivation..."
