Chapter 272 My mother-in-law is a loyal servant (16)
Master Huayang is the golden finger of the heroine and the biggest helper for her to marry into the prince's house as a commoner.
Of course, He Tiantian taking Wei Yuanniang to see Master Huayang is not considered cutting off, let alone snatching the opportunity of the heroine.
Because the heroine is not yet ten years old, she has not yet met Master Huayang by chance, and then she was attracted by Master Huayang at a glance because of her personality, character and other reasons.
The heroine is not the only girl who has been protected by the Huayang Temple. Before the heroine, there were two or three girls who were left in the Taoist temple by the Huayang Temple for various reasons.
Wei Yuanniang is just one of many people, so He Tiantian doesn't have any psychological burden.
In the past few years, He Tiantian has successfully met some noble ladies in Beijing through embroidery.
However, He Tiantian never went out of her way to show off. Mrs. Zhang, Aunt Zhao and others just thought that she had made a lot of money by relying on her exquisite double-sided embroidery.
Not only did he buy the two courtyards they rented, he also bought a small shop for Feng Zhongliang.
Mrs. Zhang had never thought about making friends with noble people. She judged others by herself. She felt that if she were still a superior Mrs. Hou, she would not look at Xiu Niang in a different light just because she likes a pair of embroidery.
How did Mrs. Zhang know that He Tiantian was no ordinary Xiu Niang?
She cleverly added various talismans in the form of embroidery patterns to the embroidery products customized by the powerful families according to the circumstances of each family.
When He Tiantian first came here, she discovered that this novel world was quite full of spiritual energy.
In addition, in the plot of the novel, there are descriptions of ghosts, gods and Buddhas.
Although there are not too many supernatural elements, there are also eminent monks and efficacious real people.
He Tiantian tried to compile the talismans she had learned in the world of magic sticks and quietly experimented with them.
The effect is not as magical as the magic stick world, but it still has some effect.
He Tiantian also continued to practice her junior uncle's Wuji Jue. After several years of hard work, she successfully developed spiritual power.
So, He Tiantian poured spiritual power into the runes embroidered with embroidery thread.
Her embroidery also has a bit of aura.
The double-sided embroidered kang screen with blessings of happiness, longevity and longevity is given to the elders to wish them happy birthday and placed in their room every day. Over time, the elders will feel healthy and have fewer illnesses and disasters.
The golden toads, laurel purses, and fan pendants are given to the younger generation. The younger generation often uses them. Gradually, the younger generation will become more alert and clear-headed when reading.
The gold-woven wedding dress embroidered by my daughter when she got married was worn only once, but after the wedding, the music and music played in harmony, and the husband and wife loved each other.
Of course, the effects of these embroideries are not very obvious. Even if some people get benefits, they do not think that it is the embroidery that takes the credit.
However, one, two, ten or eight, as long as they use the embroidery handmade by "Gu Xiuniang", good things will always happen. The more times it happens, the more everyone will feel it.
Even if you don't think that "Gu Xiuniang's" embroidery is magical, you will still think that her things are auspicious and can bring good luck to people!
This is enough.
Gu Xiuniang is not an expert, and her embroidery is not some magical talisman. While the embroidery fulfills its own function, it can also bring some luck to people, which is an unexpected surprise.
Therefore, people who have bought or used embroidery, even if they do not believe in ghosts and gods, still think that "Gu Xiuniang" is a blessed person.
As for people, whether they are superstitious or not, they all want to get lucky and get a good omen. They will also look at lucky people with special regard.
In this way, over a few years, relying on this special embroidery, He Tiantian slowly entered the circle of ladies and gained a certain network of contacts.
It was because of a pair of embroidery pieces that Master Huayang got in touch with He Tiantian.
However, He Tiantian has always been very careful about propriety. Even though she has a good relationship with some ladies, she has never made any excessive demands.
She did not consider herself a benefactor because she added runes to the embroidery and successfully helped some people avoid danger. She had a very clear understanding of her own identity——
She is just an ordinary woman who supports her family by embroidery.
They paid a high price, and she provided the corresponding goods. The money and goods were both paid, and no one owed each other anything.
He Tiantian's attitude only made the ladies find this person more approachable.
They were more sincere in their interactions with He Tiantian.
On the side of Huayang Temple Master, He Tiantian intended to let Wei Yuanniang come to her to "golden" her, but he did not exchange the past affection.
She asked Wei Yuanniang to bring a pot of precious camellias that she carefully cultivated - the Eighteen Bachelors, to Qingyun Temple.
"This is the Eighteenth Bachelor? It's so beautiful!"
The master of Huayang Temple said she was an old concubine, but in fact she was not yet fifty years old this year.
She was extremely well maintained. After leaving the palace, she felt at ease and relaxed in Qingyun Temple. She looked like a beauty who was less than thirty years old.
She doesn't have the rigidity of a Qing cultivator at all. Instead, she acts with the spontaneity unique to Taoism, naturally elegant!
She likes to appreciate flowers, but she does not follow the trend of peonies. Instead, she likes camellias that are more gorgeous, yet elegant and delicate.
The pot of Eighteen Bachelors sent by Wei Yuanniang definitely touched her heart.
Seeing this pot of gorgeous camellias with seven or eight colors, Guanzhu Huayang forgot all the rules and etiquette for a moment, and ran directly to it, surrounding the camellias and praising them.
Wei Yuanniang followed He Tiantian obediently. When she heard the praise from Master Huayang, she couldn't help but smile shyly.
However, she did not speak rashly, but looked at it very obediently.
Huayang Guanzhu admired it for a long time, and then he woke up from the surprise.
She smacked her lips with unfinished thoughts, and there was still love and reluctance in her eyes.
But, after all, she is a well-informed and noble person.
She reluctantly moved her eyes away from the camellia, and then fell on Wei Yuanniang, "Good boy, I heard from your aunt, you cultivated this pot of eighteen bachelors?"
"Looking back at the viewer, it was indeed cultivated by my little girl."
Although Wei Yuanniang was still shy, she behaved calmly and generously.
Her eyes are clear, her behavior is measured, and she looks like a well-educated child.
"Yes, Not Bad!"
Guanzhu Huayang returned to her seat, she looked at Wei Yuanniang, satisfaction flashed in her eyes.
However, she still hesitated in her heart.
He Tiantian had already mentioned Wei Yuanniang's identity to her.
She is the eldest daughter of Pingnan Hou Mansion, and Ping Nan Hou has been missing for several years, and the Hou Mansion has long been conquered by Emperor Chengtai.
Therefore, Wei Yuanniang was actually the queen who violated the imperial court.
However... Emperor Chengtai has already suppressed the Wei family, and in the past two or three years, the southwest has begun to become turbulent again.
The imperial court is in urgent need of a prestigious and capable general to guard the southwest.
In fact, the best candidate is the Wei family.
The ancestor of the Wei family was the adopted son of Taizu. He followed Taizu in battles in the north and south, and made great military exploits.
After the establishment of the Great Zhou Dynasty, Taizu named the ancestor of the Wei family the Marquis of Pingnan and guarded the southwest for generations.
The contemporary Ping Nanhou is already the fourth generation, and the Wei family has been operating in the southwest for a hundred years.
It would be an understatement to say that it is a local snake.
Emperor Chengtai was afraid of the 200,000 Southwest Army in the hands of Ping Nanhou, but the imperial court also needed the Southwest Army to guard the southern gate of the imperial court.
Back then, Marquis Pingnan went to fight a rebellion despite being ill, but unexpectedly disappeared, and the whereabouts of more than 100,000 Pingnan troops were also unknown.
At this time, a lieutenant under Pingnanhou made an accusation and exposed Pingnanhou's collaboration with the enemy and treason, and also produced some specious evidence.
The evidence of the crime was not important. What was important was that Emperor Chengtai, who was in urgent need of regaining military power, finally had a reason to punish the Pingnan Marquis Mansion.
As a result, the Marquis's house was confiscated and his title was seized, and the remaining remnants of the Southwest Army were put in charge of the deputy general.
With the remaining power of the Southwest Army, although the Pingnan Marquis Mansion was gone, the Southwest still enjoyed a few years of peace.
However, as time went by, the Southwest Army was repeatedly mixed with sand by the court, and it was no longer the Southwest Army it was back then.
And the deputy general's ability is really not as good as Ping Nanhou.
During this period, "civil unrest" broke out frequently in the southwest, and the barbarian leaders who had been naturalized rebelled one after another.
Emperor Chengtai was very worried. At this time, he felt a little regret.
Even if you want to gather military power, you shouldn't do it so cruelly. At least you should leave a strong general who can guard the southwest.
Huayang Temple Master seems to be far away from the court, but she knows everything about the big and small affairs in the court.
Just a few days ago, a minister in the court made a plea to help the second and third masters of the Wei family who were exiled in the border town.
Emperor Chengtai seemed a little moved.
In fact, the Second Master Wei and the Third Master Wei are not very outstanding people. At least compared to their eldest brother Ping Nanhou, they are either mediocre or dandy.
However, this is not important. As long as their surname is Wei and they are the biological sons of Lao Ping Nanhou, then they will be a banner in the southwest.
Coupled with the Southwest Army controlled by the imperial court, it can have a deterrent effect on the southwest region.
Emperor Chengtai was willing to pardon the men of the Hou family like the Second Master Wei and the Third Master Wei and give them important responsibilities.
Wei Yuanniang was a woman, a twelve-year-old girl, so she would not be held tightly by the court or Emperor Chengtai.
Huayang Guanzhu squinted his eyes slightly, and gently clasped the table with his well-maintained slender white fingers.
Tuk-tuk, Tuk-tuk——
Following the soft sounds, Huayang Guanzhu's brain was running rapidly.
She straightened out her thoughts and clearly weighed the pros and cons.
Finally, she felt that she could leave Wei Yuanniang in the Taoist temple.
If you are lucky, you can invest in Pingnanhou Mansion in advance, which is destined to rise again!
"Oh, I really like this child Yuanniang!"
Master Huayang opened his eyes and showed a happy expression.
When she said this, it wasn't all for show.
Wei Yuanniang is beautiful, speaks and behaves very well, and most importantly, she can take care of flowers and plants. Putting aside some interests, Master Huayang really likes such a good-looking and well-educated little girl.
Anyway, it's not an embarrassing matter, but it's just that the eldest daughter of Marquis Ping Nan is around him, so Huayang Temple Master is happy to help.
"Yuan Niang, if you don't mind that my Taoist temple is remote and lonely, how about you stay with me in the Taoist temple for a while?"
Temple Master Huayang said with a smile.
Wei Yuanniang's eyes suddenly lit up, and her little face was filled with joy.
However, Wei Yuanniang knew how to be measured and did not agree hastily. Instead, she subconsciously turned her head to look at He Tiantian.
He Tiantian nodded slightly, his eyes full of encouragement.
Only then did Wei Yuanniang feel relieved, stood up, and bowed politely, "My daughter is willing, I just hope that the master will not dislike my dullness!"
"Haha, you can cultivate eighteen bachelors and be so knowledgeable and sensible. How can you be so stupid?" Master Huayang was very happy and officially left Wei Yuanniang in the Taoist temple.
He Tiantian handed over the embroidery, and before leaving, she gave Wei Yuanniang some serious advice.
Wei Yuanniang was moved, but even more reluctant to let go: "...Auntie, I, I can't let you go!"
"Good boy, my aunt can't bear to leave you. However, it will be good for you to stay in the Taoist temple and serve the temple master well."
He Tiantian touched Wei Yuanniang's hair and said softly, "Master Huayang is a wise and loving elder. You don't need to learn too much. If you can learn a little of her way of dealing with people, you can benefit from it for life!"
"
The key is the improvement of status.
Another point is that Emperor Chengtai would visit Huayang Temple from time to time.
If some of the skills that He Tiantian taught Wei Yuanniang could be shown to Emperor Chengtai, Wei Yuanniang might be rewarded.
As long as Wei Yuanniang has a reward, even if her life experience is exposed in the future, she will not be easily crushed into dust.
She can even live a life richer and more glorious than the daughter of the Marquis!
"I know, I will serve well and study hard!"
Of course Wei Yuanniang knew the benefits of staying in Qingyun Temple, so she became even more grateful for her aunt's painstaking efforts in planning for her.
In her mind, her aunt is not her biological mother, but she is better than her biological mother.
Sometimes, seeing Mrs. Zhang's indifferent look and feeling her aunt's careful care, Wei Yuanniang actually thought a little "rebelliously": "It would be great if my aunt was my biological mother!"
He Tiantian didn't know these thoughts in Wei Yuanniang's mind, but she could detect that the black energy surrounding Wei Yuanniang's soul had slowly dissipated.
Now, Wei Yuanniang's soul is very peaceful, and her surroundings are exuding warm, soft white light.
On the contrary, it is the male protagonist Feng Yanting. He has not turned black, but the color of his soul has become less pure and flawless, but mixed with some other colors.
Because of Mrs. Zhang, Feng Yanting became increasingly reluctant to go home.
He began to wander around the market and came into contact with a group of low-level common people.
Because of Feng Yanting's "down-to-earth spirit", he actually met the heroine in advance, a girl who came from a poor background, but is proud, strong and kind.
Feng Yanting and the heroine hit it off immediately, but they were still young and could not talk about romance.
The two just felt that they were in love with each other and couldn't help but want to get close to each other.
The two of them became good friends with almost no nonsense.
Feng Yanting began to express his feelings to the heroine, which naturally included complaints and resentment towards Mrs. Zhang, Aunt Zhao and others.
The heroine is like an interpretive flower. Not only does she patiently explain Feng Yanting, but she also tries every means to help him adjust his mentality and study hard.
The two of them had a common secret topic, and their relationship became closer.
Feng Yanting even firmly remembered the heroine's "explanation" for him, and felt that the heroine was a bright light in his life.
This laid the foundation for the deep relationship between the male protagonist and the female protagonist in the future, and also allowed them to trust each other and rely on each other, making it more logical...
