The Beisa family is the maternal family of the Tubo Princess ‘Beisa Amoji’.
The clear river flows through the mountains, and peach trees have been planted on both sides of the river bank.
Hundreds of peach trees gradually sprouted buds and grew green new branches in the slightly warm temperature.
A tall mountain peak stood on the side of the river. Slaves and subjects gathered in groups, walking up the mountainside along the steps dug step by step from the foot of the mountain.
Some people carry loads of dirt up the mountain;
Someone was carrying loads of rocks down the mountain.
Halfway up the mountain, slaves and subjects were strung together with a rope. They used clumsy tools to dig out rocks along the mountainside of Shengong Mountain. A group of slaves and subjects dug a deep hole halfway up the mountain.
The next group of people spread load after load of soil into the stone ditch.
Later, someone planted peach trees one by one into the soil.
Water.
Waiting for the peach tree to take root and sprout.
On the mountainside, the sound of hammers and chisels hitting solid rocks was heard continuously.
Stone chips rolled down.
However, for such a majestic mountain, people just keep digging and 'cutting the mountain' with their hands, but they don't know when they can really cut out a flat land around the entire mountainside for Princess Besa Amoji to wander on the mountain.
In the sea of peach blossoms, feel the fragrance of spring.
The slaves, the subjects who were conscripted here, were whipped by the overseers to get up every day when it was light, and they worked until it was completely dark.
Even with all this hard work, the process of ‘chopping mountains’ has not advanced much.
The peach blossom season is approaching, but the completion of the construction period is still far away.
Everyone has unspeakable anguish and fear in their hearts.
‘Qu Li Guang Haizang’ was in the ‘mountain cutting team’ halfway up the mountain. He had a rope tied around his waist and was at the front leading the people to cut the mountain.
The heavy labor has caused him to lose the strength and desire to speak.
All around, apart from the heavy breathing of people, there was only the sound of hammers and chisels hitting the earth and rocks.
Thick and gray beard and hair covered most of Qu Liguang Hai Zang's face. He was cutting stones at the front silently, occasionally turning his eyes to look at the peach blossom forest on both sides of the clear river at the foot of the mountain, feeling relieved.
own fatigue.
——He rolled his eyes again and looked at the slowly flowing river at the foot of the mountain.
On the river bank, nobles in bright clothes and angry horses gathered around a carriage with exquisite and complicated carvings, passing through the peach forest and heading straight to the foot of Shengong Mountain.
Many monks in red and yellow clothes were mixed in among the nobles wearing silk and satin, and their retinues were around the carriage.
In the mountain-cutting team, which was so silent that only the sound of breathing could be heard, there was a sudden commotion.
The slaves, the subjects who were no better than the slaves, began to speak.
"That's Princess Amoji's carriage. I saw it from a distance before - Princess Amoji's carriage has this kind of carving..."
"Princess Amoji is coming to the mountain to visit?"
"She will punish us when she sees that we have not even completed half of the construction period by cutting down the mountain, right?"
"I heard that Princess Amoji has always been a kind and noble person. She believes in Buddhism. We have worked so hard. She will not punish us when she sees us working hard, right? Maybe she will.
Give us a reward so that each of us can eat three spoons more at night - no, five spoons! Five spoons of tsampa!"
"Just think about good things..."
Qu Liguang Haizang listened to the discussions of the people behind him, his face expressionless.
People talked for a while and then fell silent again.
——The chariot, surrounded by many nobles and monks, stopped at the foot of Shengong Mountain.
Some of the servants in brocade clothes opened their big umbrellas;
Some knelt in front of the carriage to serve as footstools;
Some opened the carriage curtains.
The woman, who was covered in silk and decorated with beads around her neck, bent down and leaned out of the carriage. She stepped on the 'footstool' and stepped out of the carriage.
The nobles and monks surrounding her all paid homage to the young woman.
The young woman nodded slightly and said a few words before the nobles stood up.
They stood at the foot of the mountain, gathered together and didn't know what they said. The young woman was surrounded by stars like a moon, and came halfway up the mountain along the mountain steps cut by the slaves - as the nobles stepped towards
Before the mountain steps, several servants in brocade clothes were already running all the way up the mountainside.
"Quick! Quick!"
"Why do you dare to dress like this to welcome the princess?!"
"Didn't anyone inform you?!"
Several servants in brocade clothes ran up to the flat ground halfway up the mountain. When they saw the slaves working hard and wielding hammers and chisels, their faces instantly turned gloomy, and their eyes were slightly frightened.
The slaves and subjects stopped moving, turned their heads, and looked at the servants in brocade clothes blankly.
The dozen or so overseers who had just waved their whip cords to a crackling sound now shrank into the crowd, and no one took the initiative to speak in response to Princess Amoji's servants in brocade clothes.
The gazes of the servants in brocade clothes swept across the many slaves with dull expressions.
The princess had already stepped up the mountain steps surrounded by many noble people.
"No one informed us, Princess, that the nobles are coming today." While several servants in brocade clothes were frowning in silence, a voice rang out from the crowd.
Along with that voice, Qu Liguang Haizang walked out of the crowd.
The leading servant in brocade clothes hesitated for a while, sighed, looked at Qu Liguang Haizang inexplicably, and said in a hurry: "Then everyone should be more respectful. Kneel down respectfully by the mountain path, the princess is coming up the mountain!"
"
After he had spoken, he led his servants and turned around and hurried down the mountain.
The slaves and subjects looked at each other for a while.
They each looked at their smelly tattered clothes.
A small voice came from the crowd: "It's true that no one told us that the princess is coming today, right?"
"Will it offend the princess if we dress like this?"
"But we don't have any clothes to wear either."
People were talking quietly.
Several supervisors who had just hid in the crowd were now waving whips and shouting loudly, and ran out of the crowd: "Didn't you hear what the man just said? Kneel down, kneel down! Kneel down by the mountain road!"
"
"You are not allowed to look up at the noble man!"
"Kneel down! Lower your head!
Why are you still standing there?!"
Snapped!
After someone was whipped, he knelt down on the side of the mountain road, put his hands on the ground, and saluted like a pig or dog.
Someone was whipped, but turned around and glared at the supervisor: "We are the people who came from Bei Sa's sign, not your slaves! If you bully me like this, I will go to the clan government to sue you!"
"tell!"
"Go and sue!"
"Zongfu Zongben is the third grandfather of our Bei Sa family. Go and sue!"
Snapped!
The overseer who had whipped the civilians with the whip laughed angrily when he heard this, and raised the whip again to whip the young man with angry eyes.
"The princess is going up the mountain!" At this time, Qu Liguang Haizang suddenly said in a loud voice.
The supervisor was so frightened that he whipped his whip and quickly turned to look at the mountain steps - Princess Amoji was still far away from the mountainside. He breathed a sigh of relief, glared at the young man hatefully, and said sinisterly: "I want you to kneel down.
Okay, if you don't kneel down, the princess will come later, you'd better be like this!"
After speaking, the supervisor turned around and walked away.
The young man was silent for a while, the anger in his eyes gradually turned into humiliation, and he knelt on the ground silently.
Halfway up the mountain, slaves and subjects were kneeling on both sides of the mountain road, and several supervisors were also kneeling at the front near the mountain steps.
Everyone was silent.
The only sound here is the swirling mountain wind and the swaying of peach branches.
Amidst the trembling movements of the peach branches, the sound of dense footsteps sounded slowly, from far to near.
The words and laughter of the nobles also spread to people's ears with the wind.
"Sister, when the peach blossoms bloom this year, the peach groves on both sides of the Baixian River will turn into a sea of flowers. Countless peach petals will float into the river, and the river will be filled with the fragrance of peach blossoms.
And on Shengong Mountain, the peach blossom forest planted halfway up the mountain will be as eye-catching as the garland on the mountain.
When the time comes, please visit this place with Zamp.
I hope that at this time next year, you will give birth to a child for King Zanpu." A gentle male voice sounded slowly.
This caused the young woman, Princess Besa Amoji, to burst into laughter like silver bells: "My child will definitely be very close to his uncle - because my uncle has put garlands on the mountains and covered the rivers with floral robes.
, so that he can be born smoothly."
"That must be the case."
"Hahaha……"
"Mo Meng, I heard that among the nobles nowadays, a kind of flag and banner painting called 'Batuo Painting' has gradually become popular. It is said that the Batuo painting comes from Tianzhu and depicts many gods and colors that are tightly bound to Buddhism.
Extremely gorgeous and complicated, the Badu paintings are used as hall decorations and have the effect of suppressing evil.
Have you ever seen a Badu painting like that?"
"There are many such paintings of flags and banners in my palace.
In fact, it was formed by the Tianzhu monks combining the Tianzhu Batuo paintings with our Tubo flag and banner paintings.
This kind of Potuo painting uses the skin of an old man who has done good deeds and accumulated virtues throughout his life as a carrier, which can best exert a magical effect. The second is the skin of a girl. Among the monks I brought, there are several who are quite good at painting Baduo paintings. Lord Gongle
If you are curious, you can communicate with them more." Princess Amoji said.
Lord Gonle was extremely grateful to Princess Amoji and said repeatedly: "Now there are traces of the 'evil root' appearing in my home. The local tantric monks cannot solve it. He said that the only way to do it is to invite someone to describe the 'Mahaykala'."
Only by enshrining the Badu paintings at home can the 'evil root' be suppressed.
Princess, you are really kind-hearted. Your helping hand to me has solved my urgent need.
I have prepared a generous gift for you, it is on the carriage at the bottom of the mountain, please be sure to accept it."
Princess Amoji responded with a smile, her voice much gentler: "Uncle Gongle is also a relative of our Bei Sa family, why do you need to be so alienated from me?"
The group of people walked up the mountainside while chatting and laughing.
The princess, with bright eyes and white teeth, and a rare fair complexion, looked around and looked at the 'scenery' halfway up the mountain.
——A section of flat road that has not been cut down very far, and some peach trees that have not yet grown leaves are planted on the flat road.
Many slaves and subjects were kneeling on the roadside in a crowd. Their clothes were in rags, and the stench emanating from their bodies made Princess Amoji feel nauseated.
