Chapter 0132: Who gets the days

The merchant boat waded through the rain for three days and arrived at the next town, where it docked.

The captain came over and saw Ye Qing using a cup of tea. The sizzling sound of the kettle on the stove was clear and distinguishable, so he smiled and said, "Young master, today is the afternoon of the 29th day of the Chinese New Year. The guests below want to settle in for a few days before leaving. What do you think

But it was agreed upon when renting, and the voyage was arranged by Ye Qing, who had already booked half of it.

Ye Qingzheng was contemplating the Zhaowang Temple when he heard these words. He woke up and said, "This is natural. How can we make everyone work hard during the Chinese New Year

It's New Year's Eve, and each of the crew members on the ship will receive a red envelope of one or two taels of silver. As for the guests, I'll invite a big table to join in the fun and have a meal. What do you think? "Ye Qing played with the bamboo fan in her hand, pondered for a long time, and took out three ten taels of silver tickets, saying.

The captain was overjoyed and respectfully took it, saying, "Thank you for the reward, I'll go handle it now

As the captain walked away, Ye Qing said to Zhou Ling, "Hurry up and book a hotel. You need a separate yard. I don't want to live in the cabin anymore

Yes, young master! "Zhou Ling said crisply.

The sky is gloomy, and the Chinese New Year is approaching. With such weather, there is still business. At a glance, this town is estimated to have 30000 people, including clothing and headwear shops, woolen yarn shops, headwear shops, lacquer and porcelain shops, calligraphy and painting shops, paper tie shops, lantern shops

Various shops have reduced prices in response to the situation, and more than a dozen large merchants have jointly organized dance and music performances. Pedestrians are weaving and strolling happily like fish swimming in spring water.

After a while, Zhou Ling came back to report that the rental was already sold out.

Ye Qing couldn't help but laugh when she saw the two women's shining eyes. She went shopping with them, walked around, and encouraged them to put on a few new clothes.

On her way back to the inn, she passed by a street market where Zhou Ling noticed some window decorations. The flowers, birds, characters, and stories were all made with exquisite craftsmanship and spirituality. It was hard to tell that they were ordinary works by an ordinary lady.

This time, Zhou Ling was just looking at his temperament. Master Ye Qing paid for all the money and bought them. The lady who was happy to sell Paper Cuttings praised repeatedly: "The childe and the two ladies are really beautiful. I asked for this paper from the Temple of King Zhaowang, and I will surely bless the two ladies for their early birth..."

Ye Qing smiled and said, "Thank you for your kind words. By the way, how can I get to the gift shop

It's not far from the other side

Zhou Ling held a large box of window decorations in her hand and quietly lowered her head, taking a deep breath.

Returning to the hotel, he blushed under Jiang Zinan's gaze and couldn't hide his shyness under the lamp, which made Ye Qing pay attention and wonder several times: "Is the bell very hot

Uh, no. "The spider lowered her head and pretended to admire the window flowers. After a moment, she casually said," Actually, I can also cut flowers... My adoptive father and senior uncle both agreed

Oh, then I look forward to your work. "Ye Qing knew she wouldn't exaggerate, and said that in reality, it was mostly excellent, so she encouraged her seriously.

Okay... "The voice sounded slightly joyful.

Jiang Zinan wrote a letter lying on the table, promising to give it to Qianqian. Ye Qing leaned over to take a look, covered her hands with her bare hands, and blushed with a pretty face, "You're not allowed to read my daughter's private conversations

If you don't look, then don't look. "Ye Qing chuckled and took out the letter while she relaxed.

Young master! You

Playing around for a while, but returning it to her, without really reading it, some of my daughter's private words are still unknown, which will ruin the beautiful image in her heart.

After a moment, Jiang Zinan exclaimed in surprise and saw snowflakes falling in the blink of an eye.

Did it snow? "I vaguely remember, seeing this New Year's snow scene in my past life, it was still in the city.

At this time, they all changed into red clothes, which looked like New Year clothes and wedding clothes. Ye Qing was very happy to see them. Jiang Zinan chuckled and said, "Snow augurs a good year... I don't know if it snows in my hometown. If it snows on ten thousand mu of farmland, the potatoes in spring will be harvested Dafengshou (Salad of assorted fresh vegetables)."

She subconsciously considered Yejiazhuang as her home.

Ye Qing listened with a smile and said, "Zinan prayed for blessings. It's snowing in my hometown, with a depth of 5.7 centimeters

The young master is talking nonsense again

If you don't believe us, let's make a bet, "Ye Qing smiled, uncertain inside. It might snow, but it's probably not like that.

Just gamble... "Jiang Zinan was stimulated, but instinctively glanced at him. Seeing his confident face, he furrowed his brows and said," Hmph, I don't bet. Every time you do this, you have a conspiracy

Ye Qing laughed heartily, and just then, a servant came over and said, "Young master, I have bought everything you ordered, and I have also prepared a ox cart

Go ahead, pay respects to the Temple of King Zhao, "Ye Qing restrained her smile and said with composure.

Yes! "Both women responded with a serious expression.

This ox cart was driven by Zhou Ling, and along the way out of the town, there were already dedicated personnel clearing the snow from the streets and even the main roads. However, the snow was heavy and the traffic gradually slowed down, taking a long time to turn onto the mountain road.

The Zhaowang Temple is located on the mountainside, surrounded by mountains and flowing in front of a clear stream. The feng shui is still good, and the incense in the temple is still acceptable. It has been conferred titles throughout the dynasties. In such heavy snow, there is still a temple guarding it.

Seeing Ye Qing dressed in a deep red robe, he hurriedly welcomed her and presented the sacrificial book as usual: "What are your instructions, sir

I am a juren who went to the capital to take the imperial examination. As I passed by the Zhao Wang Temple, I dare not disrespect you and would like to offer the courtesy of a young prison! "Ye Qing said slowly," Right below, you can find someone to bring me up

In this world, Shaolao is also a ritual for feudal lords and officials to offer sacrifices to ancestral temples. Originally, it was one sheep and one pig, but the Taoist court changed it and replaced it accordingly.

This temple is filled with great joy, repeatedly responding, "This is what we need to do, little man

Ye Qing saw that there was nothing to do for a moment, so he looked along the corridor. First, he saw the main hall, and his eyes lit up. In the center of the hall, Prince Zhao was wearing a coronation robe, with a solemn appearance.

There is no divine appearance on the west and east sides, but there are paintings of generals and officials on the walls, each with armor and official attire. Their expressions are either kind, laughing, cultured, or powerful, which is quite awe inspiring.

At this point, the gift list could still come up, but Ye Qing didn't go in and walked out on his own, turning to the cemetery behind the temple.

Along the way, the trees are mostly pine and cypress, evergreen and lush, pleasing to the eye.

The Zhaowang Temple is an ancient holy king, worshipped by emperors throughout history, gradually becoming extraordinary. After a moment, the pine forest opened up and a large garden appeared.

Ye Qing felt that there was a kind of spiritual energy that was refreshing to the heart and mind, which was not unusual. He observed from the sky's eyes in secret - there was a trace of qi, but it was far from royal qi, but there was also a chilling aura faintly inside.

The will of the people is the will of the people. In this way, the Holy King has his own righteousness, even the tombs are contaminated with it, and the righteous rural style is introduced, which invisibly purifies the people. How can there be any cunning

Ye Qing suddenly felt a sense of foreboding in her heart: "Even if there is one, is it so easy to obtain royal qi in this grand temple of the Holy King? Has there been no response from the court and Taoist sects

"Also, why can't I find this ornamental column tree?"

At this moment, Jiang Zinan and Zhou Ling followed closely. They were all laughing softly, standing on tiptoe under the tree, holding up three white scarves in an attempt to hang them on the tree

Young master, come and help us... "This was the voice of Jiang Zinan calling out.

Ye Qing stepped forward and looked at Zhou Ling, who was not used to holding the hem of her light veil and red skirt, blushing and afraid to jump. "Young master

Ye Qing chuckled a bit and took the white silk scarves from their hands, hanging them on the tree.

Jiang Zinan smiled and said, "Young master, all the offerings have been brought up below. You can go to the front hall

Ye Qing straightened her clothes, wearing a black wooden crown, a long robe, and graceful long sleeves. She turned to the front hall and saw that the oil lamps had been lit, and the desk had been cleaned.

Ye Qing stepped forward and gave a deep bow. According to the ritual, he first wore silk and then presented the smooth silk on both sides to the table.

Next is food, and then the sheep and pigs made of cake are presented.

Once again, it's about wealth. Here's a piece of white jade and a pair of gold ingots (twenty taels).

As for the heavy rice bags and meat on the ox cart, which were meant for the living in the temple, they would not be placed here at this time. After the tribute was finished, Ye Qing bowed.

Ye Qing passed the ceremony and stepped back. Two women then offered incense, kneeling down and silently wishing each other. They had the experience of paying respects several times before and knew their wishes without having to listen carefully.

After all the formalities were completed, the temple was filled with laughter and said, "Thank you, sir, for your generous sacrifice

This set of sacrificial offerings probably contains 250 taels of silver. Apart from the imperial court sending people to offer sacrifices, it has not been for several years. I quickly flattered, "Sir, it is getting late and you will be staying here, but the banquet in this temple is famous

Ye Qing smiled and said, "No need. Just because it's getting late at night, take me around again and I'll go back to the hotel in town

Yes, yes! "The temple quickly responded and led Ye Qing and his group to visit, counting down the allusions one by one, but there were also many stories.

Ye Qing listened with a smile on her face, but upon closer observation, she saw many trees planted inside and outside, without any trace of royal aura.

Just as he was puzzled, Ci Zhengtu casually said, "These trees are all over a hundred years old and were originally relics of our temple. I didn't expect someone to steal one of them a few days ago, but only cut half of it. It's really unreasonable

Ye Qing was taken aback and quickly said, "Take me over to take a look

The temple responded with a sound, but as they descended, they saw a large tree being cut down on the side of the steps. However, they had not paid attention to it when they went up the steps earlier, and Ye Qing's heart stirred as she quickly went up.

Seeing a tree cut at the waist, with a smooth cross-section, I felt it with just a touch of my hand and suddenly realized, "It's this one, with Wang Qi inside, but unfortunately it has already cut at the waist

Upon further inquiry, the temple official was unaware and claimed that someone had chopped it down in the middle of the night, only to discover it tomorrow morning.

Ye Qing remained motionless, his mind churning as he thought to himself, "Who, who knew about this? Could it be Yu Fan? Or perhaps it was a deviation in the number of days that someone else had obtained it

At a moment of confusion, I was about to take a few steps down from the temple. However, I rushed two steps at this moment and looked at my head and said, "The adults do not want to stay, and I dare not force myself. But if the adults perform such a ritual, they will definitely be recorded in the sacrificial book. Please move away

Speaking with a smile, he said, "If you don't record your name, the government might think that a petty person somehow tricked and cheated to get so much money

After hearing this, Ye Qing also smiled and said, "Then I'll go up and record your name, so I won't make things difficult for you

As he spoke, someone brought pen and ink. After finishing it, his heart moved. He saw an empty wall on the east side, but he walked up and pondered for a moment. He then wrote a poem on it, but it turned out to be "Worshiping the Temple of King Zhao"

Being a stranger in a foreign land alone,

I miss my family even more during festive occasions.

Knowing from afar where my brothers have climbed,

Sacrificing one less ancestor.

After finishing writing, return the pen and sprinkle it away.
