Master of the World [Quick Transmigration]
Chapter 255 1 The Spring River Flows Eastward 37
My master has severe obsessive-compulsive disorder and a slight obsession with cleanliness. It is not a matter of a day or two. Seeing that the other party's cup is stained with water that seems to be sprayed by himself, Wu Que knows that he is not good. He wiped his mouth and immediately shifted the target: " Master, how do you say this Wan Liyun became a glorious citizen?"
Qian Jiangyue would easily see through his little tricks every time, Wu Que tried it with a fluke mentality, never thought that Qian Jiangyue frowned, and took up the words: "I didn't know that he could also be a doctor."
There was seven points of sarcasm in the tone, but the remaining three points had a taste that Wu Que couldn't understand.
Wu Que tentatively asked, "Do you want to ask?"
Qian Jiangyue said coldly: "It seems that you have a lot of free time recently."
Wu Que hurriedly said: "No, I've been studying talismans all night."
When Qian Jiangyue saw him, Wu Que felt a little guilty, "Although it didn't last all night, at least seven times a night."
"Wu Que." Qian Jiangyue suddenly called him by first and last name.
Wu Que is like a well-behaved puppy, sitting harmlessly opposite.
"Door rules, thirty times."
"..."
Wu Que pursed her mouth, sullen, and suddenly heard the sound of flapping wings. When she raised her eyes, the frustration just now disappeared, and she saw a snow-white eagle flying not far away.Different from Lin Xun's ugly and cute pigeon, which was used to deliver letters, this bird even has shrewd eyes.
"It's Big Brother's Snow Eagle."
Wu Que excitedly ran to the window, took off the small bamboo tubes tied to Snow Eagle's claws, and just wanted to touch the white wings, Snow Eagle let out a cry, circled in the air, and flew to the distance again.
"It's a pity that Xiaoxue is so human, but not close to people."
This is also one of the places where Wu Que admires the elder brother. Leng An has always played the role of the good guy among the three disciples of Qian Jiangyue. Too out of line.This made him the least obvious character among the three disciples, but it was this elder brother who was always gentle, who actually tamed Xue Ying, who even the second elder brother was helpless.
Only a few words were written in the letter: The matter in Yangzhou is over, and the disciple will rush to the imperial capital as soon as possible to join the master.
After Wu Que handed the letter to Qian Jiangyue, she wondered: "With the temperament of the big brother, shouldn't we just look back?"
Qian Jiangyue asked the waiter to clear the table, and served a new table of food: "I will know when I meet."
In fact, he already knew it in his heart, and most likely there was some information that was inconvenient to disclose in the letter and needed to be interviewed in person.
Although there were some small twists and turns, Wu Que's determination to eat and drink for thirty times did not affect Wu Que's determination. Looking at Qian Jiangyue walking beside her, she felt that Master was the best master in the world. Qian Jiangyue often reminded him Avoid greedy tongue, but every time you go out, you will still bring yourself to eat a lot of delicious food.
Before he reached Nanfu, he saw a beautiful figure leaning against the wall from a distance, and the vines spreading from above fell around him, making this person look like a demon flower climbing and growing.
After Wu Que recognized who it was, she waved her hand and said excitedly: "Glory, glory we are here!"
Lin Xun, who was dozing off originally, was jolted awake and fully awake.
When Qian Jiangyue saw his slippery feet, the corners of her lips twitched undetectably.
Wu Que walked to Lin Xun's side first, and the latter raised his eyebrows. He didn't expect that his child, who had never waited to see him, was so happy today.
To be honest, Wu Que seeing Lin Xun is like a cat seeing a fish, and finally he can find a chance to satisfy his curiosity: "Tell me, how did you become a master of Xinglin in a blink of an eye."
Lin Xun lifted the gift box in his hand, and looked at Qian Jiangyue behind him: "It's a regular visit, this time I can always let me in for a cup of tea."
Wu Que, who was ignored, felt that these words sounded a bit strange, as if the other party had been here before, he looked suspiciously at Qian Jiangyue first, then at Lin Xun: "Shouldn't you secretly build the plank road behind my back and secretly hide Chen Cang?" ?”
It was Qian Jiangyue who responded to him: "Sect rules, fifty times."
"..."
When Wu Que regretted her words and deeds, Qian Jiangyue had already entered, and Lin Xun put the gift box in his arms, "Poor little girl, take it to make up your body."
Lin Xun had a good time admiring the upright step into Nanfu. A branch family is so rich, and I don’t know what the mansion of Nanheng’s family looks like. Even if someone told me that they occupied half of the city, Lin Xun would believe it. .
"What are you doing here again?" Qian Jiangyue deliberately kept a distance from Lin Xun, and his figure was particularly slender from a not-too-near angle.
Lin Xun: "You must have heard about my being banned."
Qian Jiangyue turned her head and said word by word: "Congratulations, glory to the people."
"..." Knowingly hit.
Lin Xun pretended not to care that he didn't get a substantial reward, "I'm considered honoring my ancestors."
There will never be another ghost king who has won the title of the human emperor and shined in the imperial capital.
While the two were talking, Wu Que chased after him from the gate with the heavy gift box in his arms.
Seeing that his legs were not short, Lin Xun asked in surprise, "Why did you walk for so long?"
Wu Que made a face at him, and poked the post on the stacked gift boxes with the tip of her chin: "The people in the palace sent it over just now."
After unloading the things and putting them on the side of the road, Wu Que complained, "What did you buy that is so heavy?"
Lin Xun looked ignorant: "I just took it from the warehouse in the annex."
Wu Que pointed at the gift box, "Stolen, stolen?"
"It should be some medicinal materials for invigorating qi and nourishing the spirit." Lin Xun comforted him: "Don't worry, this kind of thing is easy to sell, just eat it."
For a moment, Wu Que felt that her world view was shattered again.
"These are all little tricks in life, and it will be beneficial and harmless for you to learn more." Lin Xun patted him on the shoulder, and glanced at the post by the way: "Speaking of which, before I left this morning, it seems that someone handed it to me. Similar posts."
Wu Que: "What about things?"
"It's too heavy, and it's not a banknote, so I just threw it away."
Wu Que's expression froze, "This kind of vermilion looks like a post that only the palace would use."
What on earth was this man thinking when he was thrown away as trash?
At this time, Qian Jiangyue tossed her sleeve robe, and the posts were blown away by the wind. After a hasty sweep, Wu Que disposed of them as useless waste paper.
Wu Que stood where she was, the corners of her mouth twitching uncontrollably. In a certain way, Master and Wan Liyun had strange similarities.
In front, Lin Xun and Qian Jiangyue walked side by side to stand side by side. Wu Quegan stood there with a sad feeling of being abandoned by his parents. He bent down to continue working as a coolie and moved things to the room, but his gaze was caught Spread out posts attract.
"Flower feast?"
Why did the emperor invite Master when he held a flower viewing feast?
……
It can be said that Lin Xun spent a very rich day. First, he visited the master of the Nanfu, and then gave instructions on Wu Que's formation. Wu Que was really flattered by the latter incident.Leaving aside Lin Xun's usual deceitful demeanor, his attainments in formations and talismans, there are probably not many people in this world who can match him.
At first, I thought it was a random teaching for a while, but Lin Xun carefully observed every detail of Wu Que's spellcasting, and then made corrections.
"I even forgot to eat dinner." Qian Jiangyue stood by the corridor at some point, watching Lin Xun earnestly imparting the knowledge of the Wuque formation, with rare soft eyes.
When the moon was hanging high, he came over and said, "It's getting late, let's call it a day."
Lin Xun looked at the sky, and seemed surprised that the time passed so quickly, "I didn't expect that the time has passed, it seems that I have to stay at the house tonight."
Wu Que, who had just given birth behind him with a little gratitude, froze... This is his real purpose!
He hurriedly raised his head, thinking that his master is wise, don't be fooled by this bastard.
"I'll ask Wu Que to talk to the owner of the house, and the rest is up to you."
Wu Que pointed at Lin Xun: "Master, you are leading a wolf into the house!"
Qian Jiangyue's eyes sank: "Don't be rude, what does your teacher teach you on weekdays."
Wu Que shrugged and pulled her head: "No matter who it is, as long as you are kind to yourself, you must remember it in your heart, but Master..."
Lin Xun said lightly: "It doesn't matter if it's inconvenient."
Qian Jiangyue: "Wu Que and I also live here temporarily, so it's inconvenient to talk about it."
Lin Xun: "Then I will go and tell the host in person, Wu Que is tired all day, let him go back to his room and rest first."
Qian Jiangyue nodded slightly.
Lin Xun turned his back, disappeared Wen Wen for a moment, and smiled at Wu Que with an unknown meaning.
Wu Que covered her heart and let him succeed.
……
Before dawn, Wu Que knocked on Lin Xun's door.
After a long time, the door was slowly opened, Lin Xun's underwear was not fastened properly, the clothes were loose, and the skin on his chest was completely exposed.
Wu Que felt something fishy and sweet on her mouth, and swallowed all the words she was about to say.
The clean white handkerchief was handed to him, seeing that Wu Que didn't respond, Lin Xun squatted down, and a large spring could be seen with his eyes down.
While wiping his nosebleeds, Lin Xun wondered if the medicinal materials in the gift box had been overfilled. Seeing that the child's face was almost flushed.
Wu Que was raised in the temple since she was a child, and she has been in contact with very conservative people. How could she have imagined that there is such a visual impact in the world, her mouth moved twice, and her eyes darkened——
dong dong dong.
After the door opened, Lin Xun hugged Wu Que, yawned, and looked sleepy: "Your apprentice seems to have passed out."
Although Wu Que passed out, her face was still flushed. When Qian Jiangyue looked at him, she naturally saw Lin Xun's open collar, a large piece of snow-white skin, even the best jade could not be so smooth.
Lin Xun threw Wu Que to Qian Jiangyue and went back to catch up on sleep. Qian Jiangyue put Wu Que on the bed and was going to twist an ice towel, but Wu Que hugged his arm directly, smashed it and murmured With 'Beauty'.
Qian Jiangyue looked at him for a while, and directly fixed Wu Que on the wall with a talisman.
The rooster crowed three times, Lin Xun got up on time, and when he went out to exercise, he saw Wu Que limping over, "What's wrong with the leg?"
Wu Que's eyes were red: "I was almost interrupted by Master."
After finishing speaking, he pointed at Lin Xun angrily, "Monster, it's all your fault!"
Lin Xun turned his back, and the corner of his mouth twitched.
Wu Que took a step back, and came again... the smile from last night.
It must have been on purpose, Wan Liyun had already expected that he would look for him, so he came here on purpose.
Lin Xun gently helped him rub his wrists, dredged his tendons, and said gently: "Today I am going to continue teaching you formations, and it may be very late..."
Wu Que cried and said, "It doesn't matter how late you are, you can stay as long as you want."
Gently touched his head: "Hey, let's go, I'll take you to have breakfast."
"Going in the wrong direction." Wu Que said.
"The old man got up early, so Nan must have had his meal long ago. I have asked someone to send the meal to another place."
"..."
It was quite quiet at the dinner table, even the movement of serving dishes was very small.
Qian Jiangyue basically only ate vegetables, and Wu Que gnawed on the chicken legs, holding on to the last hope, and said to Lin Xun, who was also gnawing on the chicken legs: "If you don't go to the other hotel, will staying here cause criticism?"
"The people outside all think that I am a medical fairy alive. At this juncture, who would easily offend the celebrity in front of the emperor."
Hope shattered, Wu Que put down the bowl and chopsticks, said 'I'm full', and ran to a deserted corner to study "Hundreds of Demons" to soothe the trauma in her heart.
Only Lin Xun and Qian Jiangyue were left at the dinner table, and the atmosphere became strange.
After Lin Xun finished handling the chicken legs, he focused on admiring Qian Jiangyue's face.
"Concentrate on eating."
Lin Xun blinked his eyes and kept staring at him: "I've been wondering since last night why you are so generous to let me stay."
Qian Jiangyue ate the last grain of rice in the bowl before saying: "The emperor has a lot of fears about me, and your coming this time will definitely deepen his suspicions."
Lin Xun didn't feel any embarrassment after being found out. Instead, he confessed everything: "I want the emperor to be suspicious together and make things difficult for you. Other Taoist priests will inevitably feel cold-hearted, and the contradiction between Taoist temples and imperial power will deepen."
"I'm not surprised that you can see through." Lin Xun moved closer, "It's just doing what I want, not like your style."
Qian Jiangyue leaned back to avoid direct contact with Lin Xun's breath.
Too close, too hot, as if it could burn a person's heart and lungs.
Lin Xun clapped his hands suddenly, pretending to be enlightened and said: "It's not that the matter I asked you to investigate before has a clue, the emperor took advantage of the chaos and captured some Taoist priests, and wanted to take the opportunity to eradicate them."
Qian Jiangyue took a sip of tea, "Don't pretend to be confused."
Lin Xun: "I sold five pictures of the ghost king that day, except for the two pictures from you. If I guessed correctly, the rest are in the hands of the emperor. If necessary, he will take the initiative to contact me and want to use my hands to eradicate them. Those Taoist priests who are too good." He whispered in Qian Jiangyue's ear: "It's just like in Sunset Mountain back then."
Qian Jiangyue squinted her eyes, and put down the teacup with a little force.
"The so-called flower viewing banquet is probably no different from the Hongmen banquet." Lin Xun hooked his white chin with his finger, "but don't worry, I'm also invited, as long as I'm here, no one can hurt you. One cent."
Grabbing the chopsticks and sweeping, the teacup flew directly towards the back of Lin Xun's head.
Lin Xun was only a second faster than the cup, and the teacup lost its target, hit the wall, and fell to pieces.
"Why be so rough," Lin Xun returned to him like lightning, "I just expressed my determination."
"Master..." Wu Que ran in from the door, and when she saw this scene, she screamed, "Father—"
The ending sound was extremely long, and those who didn't know thought that something happened to Qian Jiangyue.
"What's the matter?" Qian Jiangyue pushed Lin Xun away, exuding a cold aura all over her body.
"...Eldest brother is back." Wu Que said in a daze.
"You guys are chatting, I'll go back to the other hall first," Lin Xun took the initiative to leave, and before leaving, he said to Wu Que: "If there is time, I will come to guide you at night."
Wu Que: "...you go."
When Lin Xun walked to the gate, he bumped into Leng An, but he just nodded and left, making Leng An confused, as if he didn't believe that the other party left so silently.
As soon as he stepped on the threshold, he saw Wu Que standing aside with his eyes blank, as if he had suffered a huge blow.
Putting doubts aside for the time being, Leng An came to Qian Jiangyue, "The matter in Yangzhou has come to an end, and this apprentice has lived up to Master's high expectations, and has won the support of most people."
Qian Jiangyue: "This is to build momentum, you did a good job."
"In addition, I received news that Tian Fan has left the temple and returned to Tian's house. He claimed to have amnesia and was rescued by the Luodeng Temple. When he returned, he made a lot of disturbances. Tian Guangyuan had no choice but to welcome him happily."
Regarding Tian Fan, Leng An had also heard of his name as a young genius a long time ago, and when he heard Nan Heng talk about what happened to Tian Fan, he also sighed for a while.
Wu Que said: "Then isn't he very dangerous?"
Leng An felt that he was young and didn't know whether he should say these things, and couldn't bear Wu Que's repeated questions, and sighed: "Your second senior brother said that Tian Guangyuan was cunning and wanted to climb high. Getting involved with Luodeng Temple will not harm him, but will also praise him, and since Tian Fan took the initiative to go back to Tian's house, he will probably think that the other party has really lost his memory."
Wu Que nodded: "That's true. Generally, it is impossible for a victim to take the initiative to return to the perpetrator."
He thought for a while: "But Tian Fan managed to get out of trouble, why did he go back to that inhuman family?"
"Tian Fan is not lacking in ability. He just lacked some insight and skill in the past." Leng An said: "It is not impossible for him now to regain a pivotal position in the family."
Wu Que was surprised: "You mean that he went back to chase fame and fortune?"
Leng An laughed: "The genius in the family may lead the family to glory, or it may lead it to destruction. The key depends on what the genius thinks."
It was obviously summer, but Wu Que felt a chill for no reason.
That is the karma planted by human evil thoughts and greed. The Tian family in the future may face a terrible cleansing.
"One more thing," Leng An didn't go on directly, but looked at Qian Jiangyue, as if he didn't know whether to say it or not.
"Say what you want to say quickly, don't hesitate."
Leng An: "I don't know how reliable this matter is. I just heard from a friend that Kasyapa's lineage has all been evacuated from Sunset Mountain."
Before Qian Jiangyue could speak, Wu Que shook her head directly: "Impossible."
Before leaving that day, the Sunset Mountain was surrounded by Taoist priests. There was no reason for Kasyapa’s lineage to take the risk to leave, not to mention that even if the family was almost exterminated, Kassapa’s lineage has always been numerous, and there should be many who survived. Even if they evacuate, where can they go?
When he gained power in the past, Kasyapa's bloodline had a lot of enemies, and the relationship with the other seven bloodlines was not very good, and no ghost clan would be willing to take them in.
"Before I came, the second junior brother happened to come to Yangzhou to help with some family affairs. He meant that Kasyapa's lineage might be broken up and scattered in various places."
Nan Hengyi wasn't someone who made speculations for no reason, so he must have received some kind of information.
"It is said that the Tang family is ruthless and scheming. Although this method is very bold, if it succeeds, it will give Kasyapa's lineage a chance to breathe. It will not be difficult to make a comeback in the future."
Wu Que disagreed, "After all, she is a woman, and it is very difficult for a weak body to achieve great things."
Qian Jiangyue didn't say a word. Regarding Tang's cruelty, he had experienced it a long time ago. When we met again more than ten years later, Tang's did not soften because of the years, but became more vicious. When he attacked Kasyapa However, Tang managed to escape by asking his own son to bring that painting to attract his attention.
Wu Que just wanted to ask Qian Jiangyue's opinion, but saw that his brows were completely cold.
"It's time to put an end to future troubles." Qian Jiangyue looked out the window, her eyes suddenly cold.
……
After Lin Xun left, he didn't go back directly to the annex, but wandered from the street to the corner, looking for opportunities to make a fortune. pastries.
There are still many doctors in the annex. After the assessment, the emperor not only did not drive away the doctors, but instead kept them to continue to study. This move made all the doctors grateful, and straight to the benevolence of today's son Zhai.
When Lin Xun passed by, he heard someone praising the emperor's kindness, and his appetite for snacks faded by half.
Back in the room, when it was finally quiet, before the cakes were eaten, I heard someone trying to call the name of the king of ghosts.
Closing his eyes, he responded.
At the same time, in the imperial palace, except for the emperor, everyone else was removed from the bedroom.Even so, the emperor was still worried, and he lowered all the veils before gradually opening the three paintings.
"Myriad Ghost King, long time no see."
A low chuckle came from the painting, "Your Majesty was joking, we still haven't met."
The emperor ignored his teasing, and said seriously: "I have something to discuss."
"When His Majesty said this a few years ago, he sent the lives of hundreds of Taoist priests to me. What is going on this time?"
The emperor said three words slowly: "Qian Jiangyue."
Qian Jiangyue has a high prestige among the people and is deeply respected by various Taoist temples. Among his three apprentices, one is calm and sophisticated, the other is wealthy, and the youngest is a rare talent for learning Taoism. Let them develop, and sooner or later they will become his heart. Big trouble.
"Three days later, I will hold a banquet in the palace."
Suddenly there was some noise outside the door, "Your Majesty, no, your Majesty said that no one is allowed to enter."
"Presumptuous, just relying on you, dare to stop me."
The emperor quickly closed the scroll and hid in the hidden compartment. The door was pushed open, and a rather gorgeous woman walked in.
"Aifei." The emperor was not angry, but stretched out his long arms to wrap his delicate body in his arms: "Why did you come here?"
The woman in her arms said coquettishly: "Recently there are always accidents in the palace, isn't this concubine worried about you?"
The emperor patted the woman's fragrant shoulder consolingly, but his gaze sank a lot.Recently, the palace is indeed not peaceful. Some time ago, the Tianhe Palace was flooded. Not long after, a fire broke out in the cold palace late at night, killing several palace ladies and former concubines.
"I heard that you have already held a banquet, so that you can use the joy to get rid of the bad luck."
The woman's eyes flashed, and her fingers provocatively slid down from the emperor's Adam's apple: "I heard that your majesty has invited several Taoist priests."
The emperor nodded, hugged the woman and kissed deeply.
The woman half pushed him away: "I heard that Daoist Qian also came to the imperial capital, is the news true?"
"He is also on my invitation list."
The woman giggled a few times, "It's better to ask Taoist Priest Qian to see if there are unclean things in the palace, which always cause fire."
"Just as Aifei said."
Anyway, he is a dying person, but he can play a final role.
The two overlapping figures fell on the bed, and there was a moment of upheaval in the veil.
……
This room, Lin Xun was suddenly cut off from contact, opened his eyes and rubbed his fingertips unconsciously... he seemed to have heard that female voice just now.
"That's all." Since he forgot, he thought it was worthless to him: "It seems that the remaining map of the ghost king is indeed in the hands of the emperor."
Lin Xun said with a smile in his eyes: "I just don't know how Qian Jiangyue will feel when she hears what the emperor said just now."
[System: Boring. 】
Lin Xun frowned, unable to figure out why it suddenly made a sound.
[System: I am answering the host's question. 】
Lin Xun was slightly stunned, and the scene of Qian Jiangyue fluttering his clothes and saying the word 'boring' with a cold expression appeared in his mind, and he laughed out loud.
The system also issued a series of mechanical 'click click' sounds.
Everyone in the world says that the flowers in Ancheng are the most beautiful, and even many exotic flowers and plants in the palace are transported from Ancheng all the way.
The flower viewing banquet is held every year, usually in September, but this year it was suddenly held in summer, which puzzled many people.However, there have been reports of flood victims and frequent outbreaks of strange diseases from all over the country recently. It might not be a good thing to put these annoying things aside for the time being at a banquet.
In the evening, many sedan chairs came in one after another outside the gate of the palace. Lin Xun also entered in a sedan chair. The palace specially sent a bearer to pick him up. Instead.
Since it is a flower viewing, it is naturally an open-air banquet.
There are flowers everywhere, and the fragrance attracts many butterflies to stop and dance on the flowers and leaves, which is a wonderful sight.
The seats on both sides were arranged in an orderly manner, and besides Qian Jiangyue and his two apprentices, the seats closest to the emperor were all powerful officials.
"Wu Que and Leng An are actually among the invitees." Lin Xun peeled off the grape skin and stuffed it into his mouth, "It seems that the emperor is still thinking about it."
After saying the last three words, he couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth. It is true that those who don't know are fearless. The Wangui King in his heyday could only draw with Qian Jiangyue. The emperor actually wanted to catch them all. I don't know who gave him the courage.
"Wanliyun." Wu Que looked at the last seat, and whispered to Leng An: "It must be a bad thing to meet him."
Qian Jiangyue also glanced in that direction, and Lin Xun mouthed two words to him, "There is fraud."
Qian Jiangyue is so smart, she instantly understood the purpose of hosting a banquet, but she was indifferent and said boringly.
Lin Xun saw his mouth clearly, guessed what he was talking about, the corners of his mouth curved deeper, and said to the system: "It really is."
The system made another clicking sound.
Lin Xun, who was eating, almost choked, coughed and said, "It's really a silver bell-like laughter."
[System: The host is laughing at me. 】
Lin Xun categorically denied it, but at this moment, everyone stood up and saluted together: "See Your Majesty."
Hearty laughter came, "Today, inviting all the nobles' families to enjoy the flowers is for the joy of the monarch and his ministers, and there is no need to be polite."
Many ministers came with their family members, and even brought their unmarried daughters with them. The emperor has not yet been established, and many people have the wish to fly to the branches one day.
"Father," Lin Xun heard the girl sitting next to him say in a very soft voice, "Is that the new concubine, why have you never seen it before?"
"Don't talk about this." The man in official robes reprimanded.
In the past, the emperor was always accompanied by the concubine Li at the flower viewing banquet, but this time he has a new face.
Lin Xun, who was concentrating on eating, paid more attention to this sentence, put down a bunch of grapes, was slightly surprised, then shook his head with a smile, "It seems that there is a good show to watch."
The concubine next to the emperor is none other than the current leader of the Kasyapa lineage, the Tang family.
Tang didn't hide it, she painted a delicate face, and she showed an unknown smile when she walked past Qian Jiangyue.
The most dangerous place is the safest place. In this palace, Tang's identity is the emperor's favored concubine. Even Qian Jiangyue can't do anything to her. If he speaks at this moment, he will become slandering the concubine.
Appreciating flowers is an elegant thing, and drinking and poetry are indispensable.
Most of the people present here are civil servants, and the freehand poems are at their fingertips. They are a little amazing at first hearing, but they are a little boring when they are too many.
Covering her lips with her hand, Tang whispered in the emperor's ear, "This concubine would like to present a dance for His Majesty."
Flattering but not vulgar, every swing of the water sleeves was strong and flexible, and one of them seemed to pass by Qian Jiangyue unintentionally, tainting a little of the wine in his glass.Until the sound of silk and bamboo stopped, many people still hadn't walked out of the beautiful scenery just now.
The emperor said "yes" three times in a row, and gave a pair of emerald jade bracelets on the spot.
Tang said gently: "It's good that the emperor is happy, but I feel sorry for Daoist Qian."
Only then did everyone realize that the wine glass in front of Qian Jiangyue had been taken down at some point, and there were conspicuous wine stains on the white skirt.
Wu Que and Leng An looked at him worriedly, worried that their master would be unhappy.
Lin Xun picked up the grapes and continued to eat. With Qian Jiangyue's ability, it was obvious that they were splashed on purpose.
Emperor: "I didn't mean to love my concubine either, Daoist Qian is not a person who cares about everything."
Tang's face was full of shame and said to the eunuch beside him: "Hurry up and take the Taoist priest to change clothes, the night wind is cold, what should I do if I catch the cold?"
The eunuch walked up to Qian Jiangyue, "Master, please follow the slaves."
Qian Jiangyue did not refuse, got up and left.
Not long after he left, Lin Xun followed him in the name of going to the toilet.
The palace was huge, and he lost his way not long after. Just as Lin Xun was about to go up to the beams to check, he suddenly saw a bright light.When he arrived, the eunuch beside Qian Jiangyue had long since disappeared, and a circle of candles was lit around him.
Those are not ordinary candles, each one is as thick as a baby's arm, and the wax oil that burns out is yellowish brown, very weird.
Lin Xun didn't touch the ground, and floated directly to his side: "What is it?"
"The improved fire-gathering array, there is no exit."
Lin Xun couldn't see any sign of worry, but instead said: "It's another fire formation, and it's useless to be creative."
After all, he squatted next to one of the candles and looked at it for a while, "We can only forcefully break the formation. This candle seals the grievances of so many people after death. It may take a while for the two of us to join forces."
A few days ago, I heard that several people died in the palace fire, presumably the corpses were stolen to refine wax.
Lin Xun turned around and looked at Qian Jiangyue: "Why do you think Tang went to the trouble of announcing this exit, even at the expense of revealing his identity in front of you?"
"This is the imperial garden."
As a road idiot, Lin Xun feels that there are a few more blooming trees around, and it is no different from other places.
Qian Jiangyue said: "When I came here, Leng An said that at the end of the flower viewing feast, the emperor will lead his courtiers to visit the Imperial Garden."
Lin Xun: "Witches and Gu are the most taboo in the palace. Tang will not be so stupid as to use a formation-breaking technique to kill someone. She wants to trap you."
The emperor had murderous intentions towards Qian Jiangyue. Under the eyes of everyone, surrounded by demon fire, it is not difficult to take the opportunity to convict him.
As soon as the words fell, there was a sound of footsteps in the distance.
"The flower viewing feast didn't end so soon," Lin Xun narrowed his eyes, "It seems that the Tang family can't wait."
"Your Majesty," as the footsteps gradually approached, Tang's voice pretended to be surprised: "Look, what is that?"
Qian Jiangyue had no intention of breaking the formation at all, and waited for their arrival.
A group of people came in a hurry, and Tang could vaguely see two figures standing in front of him. Knowing that the plan was expected to succeed, he said in a voiceless voice, "Could it be, could it be the demon fire?"
At this moment, Lin Xun flicked his sleeves suddenly, and the candles in front of him suddenly drew closer to the center, converging into a heart-shaped pattern, and countless petals fell from the branches and flew in the air. Yupei, caught off guard, knelt down on one knee, took Qian Jiangyue's hand, and said affectionately: "Marry me."
Qian Jiangyue would easily see through his little tricks every time, Wu Que tried it with a fluke mentality, never thought that Qian Jiangyue frowned, and took up the words: "I didn't know that he could also be a doctor."
There was seven points of sarcasm in the tone, but the remaining three points had a taste that Wu Que couldn't understand.
Wu Que tentatively asked, "Do you want to ask?"
Qian Jiangyue said coldly: "It seems that you have a lot of free time recently."
Wu Que hurriedly said: "No, I've been studying talismans all night."
When Qian Jiangyue saw him, Wu Que felt a little guilty, "Although it didn't last all night, at least seven times a night."
"Wu Que." Qian Jiangyue suddenly called him by first and last name.
Wu Que is like a well-behaved puppy, sitting harmlessly opposite.
"Door rules, thirty times."
"..."
Wu Que pursed her mouth, sullen, and suddenly heard the sound of flapping wings. When she raised her eyes, the frustration just now disappeared, and she saw a snow-white eagle flying not far away.Different from Lin Xun's ugly and cute pigeon, which was used to deliver letters, this bird even has shrewd eyes.
"It's Big Brother's Snow Eagle."
Wu Que excitedly ran to the window, took off the small bamboo tubes tied to Snow Eagle's claws, and just wanted to touch the white wings, Snow Eagle let out a cry, circled in the air, and flew to the distance again.
"It's a pity that Xiaoxue is so human, but not close to people."
This is also one of the places where Wu Que admires the elder brother. Leng An has always played the role of the good guy among the three disciples of Qian Jiangyue. Too out of line.This made him the least obvious character among the three disciples, but it was this elder brother who was always gentle, who actually tamed Xue Ying, who even the second elder brother was helpless.
Only a few words were written in the letter: The matter in Yangzhou is over, and the disciple will rush to the imperial capital as soon as possible to join the master.
After Wu Que handed the letter to Qian Jiangyue, she wondered: "With the temperament of the big brother, shouldn't we just look back?"
Qian Jiangyue asked the waiter to clear the table, and served a new table of food: "I will know when I meet."
In fact, he already knew it in his heart, and most likely there was some information that was inconvenient to disclose in the letter and needed to be interviewed in person.
Although there were some small twists and turns, Wu Que's determination to eat and drink for thirty times did not affect Wu Que's determination. Looking at Qian Jiangyue walking beside her, she felt that Master was the best master in the world. Qian Jiangyue often reminded him Avoid greedy tongue, but every time you go out, you will still bring yourself to eat a lot of delicious food.
Before he reached Nanfu, he saw a beautiful figure leaning against the wall from a distance, and the vines spreading from above fell around him, making this person look like a demon flower climbing and growing.
After Wu Que recognized who it was, she waved her hand and said excitedly: "Glory, glory we are here!"
Lin Xun, who was dozing off originally, was jolted awake and fully awake.
When Qian Jiangyue saw his slippery feet, the corners of her lips twitched undetectably.
Wu Que walked to Lin Xun's side first, and the latter raised his eyebrows. He didn't expect that his child, who had never waited to see him, was so happy today.
To be honest, Wu Que seeing Lin Xun is like a cat seeing a fish, and finally he can find a chance to satisfy his curiosity: "Tell me, how did you become a master of Xinglin in a blink of an eye."
Lin Xun lifted the gift box in his hand, and looked at Qian Jiangyue behind him: "It's a regular visit, this time I can always let me in for a cup of tea."
Wu Que, who was ignored, felt that these words sounded a bit strange, as if the other party had been here before, he looked suspiciously at Qian Jiangyue first, then at Lin Xun: "Shouldn't you secretly build the plank road behind my back and secretly hide Chen Cang?" ?”
It was Qian Jiangyue who responded to him: "Sect rules, fifty times."
"..."
When Wu Que regretted her words and deeds, Qian Jiangyue had already entered, and Lin Xun put the gift box in his arms, "Poor little girl, take it to make up your body."
Lin Xun had a good time admiring the upright step into Nanfu. A branch family is so rich, and I don’t know what the mansion of Nanheng’s family looks like. Even if someone told me that they occupied half of the city, Lin Xun would believe it. .
"What are you doing here again?" Qian Jiangyue deliberately kept a distance from Lin Xun, and his figure was particularly slender from a not-too-near angle.
Lin Xun: "You must have heard about my being banned."
Qian Jiangyue turned her head and said word by word: "Congratulations, glory to the people."
"..." Knowingly hit.
Lin Xun pretended not to care that he didn't get a substantial reward, "I'm considered honoring my ancestors."
There will never be another ghost king who has won the title of the human emperor and shined in the imperial capital.
While the two were talking, Wu Que chased after him from the gate with the heavy gift box in his arms.
Seeing that his legs were not short, Lin Xun asked in surprise, "Why did you walk for so long?"
Wu Que made a face at him, and poked the post on the stacked gift boxes with the tip of her chin: "The people in the palace sent it over just now."
After unloading the things and putting them on the side of the road, Wu Que complained, "What did you buy that is so heavy?"
Lin Xun looked ignorant: "I just took it from the warehouse in the annex."
Wu Que pointed at the gift box, "Stolen, stolen?"
"It should be some medicinal materials for invigorating qi and nourishing the spirit." Lin Xun comforted him: "Don't worry, this kind of thing is easy to sell, just eat it."
For a moment, Wu Que felt that her world view was shattered again.
"These are all little tricks in life, and it will be beneficial and harmless for you to learn more." Lin Xun patted him on the shoulder, and glanced at the post by the way: "Speaking of which, before I left this morning, it seems that someone handed it to me. Similar posts."
Wu Que: "What about things?"
"It's too heavy, and it's not a banknote, so I just threw it away."
Wu Que's expression froze, "This kind of vermilion looks like a post that only the palace would use."
What on earth was this man thinking when he was thrown away as trash?
At this time, Qian Jiangyue tossed her sleeve robe, and the posts were blown away by the wind. After a hasty sweep, Wu Que disposed of them as useless waste paper.
Wu Que stood where she was, the corners of her mouth twitching uncontrollably. In a certain way, Master and Wan Liyun had strange similarities.
In front, Lin Xun and Qian Jiangyue walked side by side to stand side by side. Wu Quegan stood there with a sad feeling of being abandoned by his parents. He bent down to continue working as a coolie and moved things to the room, but his gaze was caught Spread out posts attract.
"Flower feast?"
Why did the emperor invite Master when he held a flower viewing feast?
……
It can be said that Lin Xun spent a very rich day. First, he visited the master of the Nanfu, and then gave instructions on Wu Que's formation. Wu Que was really flattered by the latter incident.Leaving aside Lin Xun's usual deceitful demeanor, his attainments in formations and talismans, there are probably not many people in this world who can match him.
At first, I thought it was a random teaching for a while, but Lin Xun carefully observed every detail of Wu Que's spellcasting, and then made corrections.
"I even forgot to eat dinner." Qian Jiangyue stood by the corridor at some point, watching Lin Xun earnestly imparting the knowledge of the Wuque formation, with rare soft eyes.
When the moon was hanging high, he came over and said, "It's getting late, let's call it a day."
Lin Xun looked at the sky, and seemed surprised that the time passed so quickly, "I didn't expect that the time has passed, it seems that I have to stay at the house tonight."
Wu Que, who had just given birth behind him with a little gratitude, froze... This is his real purpose!
He hurriedly raised his head, thinking that his master is wise, don't be fooled by this bastard.
"I'll ask Wu Que to talk to the owner of the house, and the rest is up to you."
Wu Que pointed at Lin Xun: "Master, you are leading a wolf into the house!"
Qian Jiangyue's eyes sank: "Don't be rude, what does your teacher teach you on weekdays."
Wu Que shrugged and pulled her head: "No matter who it is, as long as you are kind to yourself, you must remember it in your heart, but Master..."
Lin Xun said lightly: "It doesn't matter if it's inconvenient."
Qian Jiangyue: "Wu Que and I also live here temporarily, so it's inconvenient to talk about it."
Lin Xun: "Then I will go and tell the host in person, Wu Que is tired all day, let him go back to his room and rest first."
Qian Jiangyue nodded slightly.
Lin Xun turned his back, disappeared Wen Wen for a moment, and smiled at Wu Que with an unknown meaning.
Wu Que covered her heart and let him succeed.
……
Before dawn, Wu Que knocked on Lin Xun's door.
After a long time, the door was slowly opened, Lin Xun's underwear was not fastened properly, the clothes were loose, and the skin on his chest was completely exposed.
Wu Que felt something fishy and sweet on her mouth, and swallowed all the words she was about to say.
The clean white handkerchief was handed to him, seeing that Wu Que didn't respond, Lin Xun squatted down, and a large spring could be seen with his eyes down.
While wiping his nosebleeds, Lin Xun wondered if the medicinal materials in the gift box had been overfilled. Seeing that the child's face was almost flushed.
Wu Que was raised in the temple since she was a child, and she has been in contact with very conservative people. How could she have imagined that there is such a visual impact in the world, her mouth moved twice, and her eyes darkened——
dong dong dong.
After the door opened, Lin Xun hugged Wu Que, yawned, and looked sleepy: "Your apprentice seems to have passed out."
Although Wu Que passed out, her face was still flushed. When Qian Jiangyue looked at him, she naturally saw Lin Xun's open collar, a large piece of snow-white skin, even the best jade could not be so smooth.
Lin Xun threw Wu Que to Qian Jiangyue and went back to catch up on sleep. Qian Jiangyue put Wu Que on the bed and was going to twist an ice towel, but Wu Que hugged his arm directly, smashed it and murmured With 'Beauty'.
Qian Jiangyue looked at him for a while, and directly fixed Wu Que on the wall with a talisman.
The rooster crowed three times, Lin Xun got up on time, and when he went out to exercise, he saw Wu Que limping over, "What's wrong with the leg?"
Wu Que's eyes were red: "I was almost interrupted by Master."
After finishing speaking, he pointed at Lin Xun angrily, "Monster, it's all your fault!"
Lin Xun turned his back, and the corner of his mouth twitched.
Wu Que took a step back, and came again... the smile from last night.
It must have been on purpose, Wan Liyun had already expected that he would look for him, so he came here on purpose.
Lin Xun gently helped him rub his wrists, dredged his tendons, and said gently: "Today I am going to continue teaching you formations, and it may be very late..."
Wu Que cried and said, "It doesn't matter how late you are, you can stay as long as you want."
Gently touched his head: "Hey, let's go, I'll take you to have breakfast."
"Going in the wrong direction." Wu Que said.
"The old man got up early, so Nan must have had his meal long ago. I have asked someone to send the meal to another place."
"..."
It was quite quiet at the dinner table, even the movement of serving dishes was very small.
Qian Jiangyue basically only ate vegetables, and Wu Que gnawed on the chicken legs, holding on to the last hope, and said to Lin Xun, who was also gnawing on the chicken legs: "If you don't go to the other hotel, will staying here cause criticism?"
"The people outside all think that I am a medical fairy alive. At this juncture, who would easily offend the celebrity in front of the emperor."
Hope shattered, Wu Que put down the bowl and chopsticks, said 'I'm full', and ran to a deserted corner to study "Hundreds of Demons" to soothe the trauma in her heart.
Only Lin Xun and Qian Jiangyue were left at the dinner table, and the atmosphere became strange.
After Lin Xun finished handling the chicken legs, he focused on admiring Qian Jiangyue's face.
"Concentrate on eating."
Lin Xun blinked his eyes and kept staring at him: "I've been wondering since last night why you are so generous to let me stay."
Qian Jiangyue ate the last grain of rice in the bowl before saying: "The emperor has a lot of fears about me, and your coming this time will definitely deepen his suspicions."
Lin Xun didn't feel any embarrassment after being found out. Instead, he confessed everything: "I want the emperor to be suspicious together and make things difficult for you. Other Taoist priests will inevitably feel cold-hearted, and the contradiction between Taoist temples and imperial power will deepen."
"I'm not surprised that you can see through." Lin Xun moved closer, "It's just doing what I want, not like your style."
Qian Jiangyue leaned back to avoid direct contact with Lin Xun's breath.
Too close, too hot, as if it could burn a person's heart and lungs.
Lin Xun clapped his hands suddenly, pretending to be enlightened and said: "It's not that the matter I asked you to investigate before has a clue, the emperor took advantage of the chaos and captured some Taoist priests, and wanted to take the opportunity to eradicate them."
Qian Jiangyue took a sip of tea, "Don't pretend to be confused."
Lin Xun: "I sold five pictures of the ghost king that day, except for the two pictures from you. If I guessed correctly, the rest are in the hands of the emperor. If necessary, he will take the initiative to contact me and want to use my hands to eradicate them. Those Taoist priests who are too good." He whispered in Qian Jiangyue's ear: "It's just like in Sunset Mountain back then."
Qian Jiangyue squinted her eyes, and put down the teacup with a little force.
"The so-called flower viewing banquet is probably no different from the Hongmen banquet." Lin Xun hooked his white chin with his finger, "but don't worry, I'm also invited, as long as I'm here, no one can hurt you. One cent."
Grabbing the chopsticks and sweeping, the teacup flew directly towards the back of Lin Xun's head.
Lin Xun was only a second faster than the cup, and the teacup lost its target, hit the wall, and fell to pieces.
"Why be so rough," Lin Xun returned to him like lightning, "I just expressed my determination."
"Master..." Wu Que ran in from the door, and when she saw this scene, she screamed, "Father—"
The ending sound was extremely long, and those who didn't know thought that something happened to Qian Jiangyue.
"What's the matter?" Qian Jiangyue pushed Lin Xun away, exuding a cold aura all over her body.
"...Eldest brother is back." Wu Que said in a daze.
"You guys are chatting, I'll go back to the other hall first," Lin Xun took the initiative to leave, and before leaving, he said to Wu Que: "If there is time, I will come to guide you at night."
Wu Que: "...you go."
When Lin Xun walked to the gate, he bumped into Leng An, but he just nodded and left, making Leng An confused, as if he didn't believe that the other party left so silently.
As soon as he stepped on the threshold, he saw Wu Que standing aside with his eyes blank, as if he had suffered a huge blow.
Putting doubts aside for the time being, Leng An came to Qian Jiangyue, "The matter in Yangzhou has come to an end, and this apprentice has lived up to Master's high expectations, and has won the support of most people."
Qian Jiangyue: "This is to build momentum, you did a good job."
"In addition, I received news that Tian Fan has left the temple and returned to Tian's house. He claimed to have amnesia and was rescued by the Luodeng Temple. When he returned, he made a lot of disturbances. Tian Guangyuan had no choice but to welcome him happily."
Regarding Tian Fan, Leng An had also heard of his name as a young genius a long time ago, and when he heard Nan Heng talk about what happened to Tian Fan, he also sighed for a while.
Wu Que said: "Then isn't he very dangerous?"
Leng An felt that he was young and didn't know whether he should say these things, and couldn't bear Wu Que's repeated questions, and sighed: "Your second senior brother said that Tian Guangyuan was cunning and wanted to climb high. Getting involved with Luodeng Temple will not harm him, but will also praise him, and since Tian Fan took the initiative to go back to Tian's house, he will probably think that the other party has really lost his memory."
Wu Que nodded: "That's true. Generally, it is impossible for a victim to take the initiative to return to the perpetrator."
He thought for a while: "But Tian Fan managed to get out of trouble, why did he go back to that inhuman family?"
"Tian Fan is not lacking in ability. He just lacked some insight and skill in the past." Leng An said: "It is not impossible for him now to regain a pivotal position in the family."
Wu Que was surprised: "You mean that he went back to chase fame and fortune?"
Leng An laughed: "The genius in the family may lead the family to glory, or it may lead it to destruction. The key depends on what the genius thinks."
It was obviously summer, but Wu Que felt a chill for no reason.
That is the karma planted by human evil thoughts and greed. The Tian family in the future may face a terrible cleansing.
"One more thing," Leng An didn't go on directly, but looked at Qian Jiangyue, as if he didn't know whether to say it or not.
"Say what you want to say quickly, don't hesitate."
Leng An: "I don't know how reliable this matter is. I just heard from a friend that Kasyapa's lineage has all been evacuated from Sunset Mountain."
Before Qian Jiangyue could speak, Wu Que shook her head directly: "Impossible."
Before leaving that day, the Sunset Mountain was surrounded by Taoist priests. There was no reason for Kasyapa’s lineage to take the risk to leave, not to mention that even if the family was almost exterminated, Kassapa’s lineage has always been numerous, and there should be many who survived. Even if they evacuate, where can they go?
When he gained power in the past, Kasyapa's bloodline had a lot of enemies, and the relationship with the other seven bloodlines was not very good, and no ghost clan would be willing to take them in.
"Before I came, the second junior brother happened to come to Yangzhou to help with some family affairs. He meant that Kasyapa's lineage might be broken up and scattered in various places."
Nan Hengyi wasn't someone who made speculations for no reason, so he must have received some kind of information.
"It is said that the Tang family is ruthless and scheming. Although this method is very bold, if it succeeds, it will give Kasyapa's lineage a chance to breathe. It will not be difficult to make a comeback in the future."
Wu Que disagreed, "After all, she is a woman, and it is very difficult for a weak body to achieve great things."
Qian Jiangyue didn't say a word. Regarding Tang's cruelty, he had experienced it a long time ago. When we met again more than ten years later, Tang's did not soften because of the years, but became more vicious. When he attacked Kasyapa However, Tang managed to escape by asking his own son to bring that painting to attract his attention.
Wu Que just wanted to ask Qian Jiangyue's opinion, but saw that his brows were completely cold.
"It's time to put an end to future troubles." Qian Jiangyue looked out the window, her eyes suddenly cold.
……
After Lin Xun left, he didn't go back directly to the annex, but wandered from the street to the corner, looking for opportunities to make a fortune. pastries.
There are still many doctors in the annex. After the assessment, the emperor not only did not drive away the doctors, but instead kept them to continue to study. This move made all the doctors grateful, and straight to the benevolence of today's son Zhai.
When Lin Xun passed by, he heard someone praising the emperor's kindness, and his appetite for snacks faded by half.
Back in the room, when it was finally quiet, before the cakes were eaten, I heard someone trying to call the name of the king of ghosts.
Closing his eyes, he responded.
At the same time, in the imperial palace, except for the emperor, everyone else was removed from the bedroom.Even so, the emperor was still worried, and he lowered all the veils before gradually opening the three paintings.
"Myriad Ghost King, long time no see."
A low chuckle came from the painting, "Your Majesty was joking, we still haven't met."
The emperor ignored his teasing, and said seriously: "I have something to discuss."
"When His Majesty said this a few years ago, he sent the lives of hundreds of Taoist priests to me. What is going on this time?"
The emperor said three words slowly: "Qian Jiangyue."
Qian Jiangyue has a high prestige among the people and is deeply respected by various Taoist temples. Among his three apprentices, one is calm and sophisticated, the other is wealthy, and the youngest is a rare talent for learning Taoism. Let them develop, and sooner or later they will become his heart. Big trouble.
"Three days later, I will hold a banquet in the palace."
Suddenly there was some noise outside the door, "Your Majesty, no, your Majesty said that no one is allowed to enter."
"Presumptuous, just relying on you, dare to stop me."
The emperor quickly closed the scroll and hid in the hidden compartment. The door was pushed open, and a rather gorgeous woman walked in.
"Aifei." The emperor was not angry, but stretched out his long arms to wrap his delicate body in his arms: "Why did you come here?"
The woman in her arms said coquettishly: "Recently there are always accidents in the palace, isn't this concubine worried about you?"
The emperor patted the woman's fragrant shoulder consolingly, but his gaze sank a lot.Recently, the palace is indeed not peaceful. Some time ago, the Tianhe Palace was flooded. Not long after, a fire broke out in the cold palace late at night, killing several palace ladies and former concubines.
"I heard that you have already held a banquet, so that you can use the joy to get rid of the bad luck."
The woman's eyes flashed, and her fingers provocatively slid down from the emperor's Adam's apple: "I heard that your majesty has invited several Taoist priests."
The emperor nodded, hugged the woman and kissed deeply.
The woman half pushed him away: "I heard that Daoist Qian also came to the imperial capital, is the news true?"
"He is also on my invitation list."
The woman giggled a few times, "It's better to ask Taoist Priest Qian to see if there are unclean things in the palace, which always cause fire."
"Just as Aifei said."
Anyway, he is a dying person, but he can play a final role.
The two overlapping figures fell on the bed, and there was a moment of upheaval in the veil.
……
This room, Lin Xun was suddenly cut off from contact, opened his eyes and rubbed his fingertips unconsciously... he seemed to have heard that female voice just now.
"That's all." Since he forgot, he thought it was worthless to him: "It seems that the remaining map of the ghost king is indeed in the hands of the emperor."
Lin Xun said with a smile in his eyes: "I just don't know how Qian Jiangyue will feel when she hears what the emperor said just now."
[System: Boring. 】
Lin Xun frowned, unable to figure out why it suddenly made a sound.
[System: I am answering the host's question. 】
Lin Xun was slightly stunned, and the scene of Qian Jiangyue fluttering his clothes and saying the word 'boring' with a cold expression appeared in his mind, and he laughed out loud.
The system also issued a series of mechanical 'click click' sounds.
Everyone in the world says that the flowers in Ancheng are the most beautiful, and even many exotic flowers and plants in the palace are transported from Ancheng all the way.
The flower viewing banquet is held every year, usually in September, but this year it was suddenly held in summer, which puzzled many people.However, there have been reports of flood victims and frequent outbreaks of strange diseases from all over the country recently. It might not be a good thing to put these annoying things aside for the time being at a banquet.
In the evening, many sedan chairs came in one after another outside the gate of the palace. Lin Xun also entered in a sedan chair. The palace specially sent a bearer to pick him up. Instead.
Since it is a flower viewing, it is naturally an open-air banquet.
There are flowers everywhere, and the fragrance attracts many butterflies to stop and dance on the flowers and leaves, which is a wonderful sight.
The seats on both sides were arranged in an orderly manner, and besides Qian Jiangyue and his two apprentices, the seats closest to the emperor were all powerful officials.
"Wu Que and Leng An are actually among the invitees." Lin Xun peeled off the grape skin and stuffed it into his mouth, "It seems that the emperor is still thinking about it."
After saying the last three words, he couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth. It is true that those who don't know are fearless. The Wangui King in his heyday could only draw with Qian Jiangyue. The emperor actually wanted to catch them all. I don't know who gave him the courage.
"Wanliyun." Wu Que looked at the last seat, and whispered to Leng An: "It must be a bad thing to meet him."
Qian Jiangyue also glanced in that direction, and Lin Xun mouthed two words to him, "There is fraud."
Qian Jiangyue is so smart, she instantly understood the purpose of hosting a banquet, but she was indifferent and said boringly.
Lin Xun saw his mouth clearly, guessed what he was talking about, the corners of his mouth curved deeper, and said to the system: "It really is."
The system made another clicking sound.
Lin Xun, who was eating, almost choked, coughed and said, "It's really a silver bell-like laughter."
[System: The host is laughing at me. 】
Lin Xun categorically denied it, but at this moment, everyone stood up and saluted together: "See Your Majesty."
Hearty laughter came, "Today, inviting all the nobles' families to enjoy the flowers is for the joy of the monarch and his ministers, and there is no need to be polite."
Many ministers came with their family members, and even brought their unmarried daughters with them. The emperor has not yet been established, and many people have the wish to fly to the branches one day.
"Father," Lin Xun heard the girl sitting next to him say in a very soft voice, "Is that the new concubine, why have you never seen it before?"
"Don't talk about this." The man in official robes reprimanded.
In the past, the emperor was always accompanied by the concubine Li at the flower viewing banquet, but this time he has a new face.
Lin Xun, who was concentrating on eating, paid more attention to this sentence, put down a bunch of grapes, was slightly surprised, then shook his head with a smile, "It seems that there is a good show to watch."
The concubine next to the emperor is none other than the current leader of the Kasyapa lineage, the Tang family.
Tang didn't hide it, she painted a delicate face, and she showed an unknown smile when she walked past Qian Jiangyue.
The most dangerous place is the safest place. In this palace, Tang's identity is the emperor's favored concubine. Even Qian Jiangyue can't do anything to her. If he speaks at this moment, he will become slandering the concubine.
Appreciating flowers is an elegant thing, and drinking and poetry are indispensable.
Most of the people present here are civil servants, and the freehand poems are at their fingertips. They are a little amazing at first hearing, but they are a little boring when they are too many.
Covering her lips with her hand, Tang whispered in the emperor's ear, "This concubine would like to present a dance for His Majesty."
Flattering but not vulgar, every swing of the water sleeves was strong and flexible, and one of them seemed to pass by Qian Jiangyue unintentionally, tainting a little of the wine in his glass.Until the sound of silk and bamboo stopped, many people still hadn't walked out of the beautiful scenery just now.
The emperor said "yes" three times in a row, and gave a pair of emerald jade bracelets on the spot.
Tang said gently: "It's good that the emperor is happy, but I feel sorry for Daoist Qian."
Only then did everyone realize that the wine glass in front of Qian Jiangyue had been taken down at some point, and there were conspicuous wine stains on the white skirt.
Wu Que and Leng An looked at him worriedly, worried that their master would be unhappy.
Lin Xun picked up the grapes and continued to eat. With Qian Jiangyue's ability, it was obvious that they were splashed on purpose.
Emperor: "I didn't mean to love my concubine either, Daoist Qian is not a person who cares about everything."
Tang's face was full of shame and said to the eunuch beside him: "Hurry up and take the Taoist priest to change clothes, the night wind is cold, what should I do if I catch the cold?"
The eunuch walked up to Qian Jiangyue, "Master, please follow the slaves."
Qian Jiangyue did not refuse, got up and left.
Not long after he left, Lin Xun followed him in the name of going to the toilet.
The palace was huge, and he lost his way not long after. Just as Lin Xun was about to go up to the beams to check, he suddenly saw a bright light.When he arrived, the eunuch beside Qian Jiangyue had long since disappeared, and a circle of candles was lit around him.
Those are not ordinary candles, each one is as thick as a baby's arm, and the wax oil that burns out is yellowish brown, very weird.
Lin Xun didn't touch the ground, and floated directly to his side: "What is it?"
"The improved fire-gathering array, there is no exit."
Lin Xun couldn't see any sign of worry, but instead said: "It's another fire formation, and it's useless to be creative."
After all, he squatted next to one of the candles and looked at it for a while, "We can only forcefully break the formation. This candle seals the grievances of so many people after death. It may take a while for the two of us to join forces."
A few days ago, I heard that several people died in the palace fire, presumably the corpses were stolen to refine wax.
Lin Xun turned around and looked at Qian Jiangyue: "Why do you think Tang went to the trouble of announcing this exit, even at the expense of revealing his identity in front of you?"
"This is the imperial garden."
As a road idiot, Lin Xun feels that there are a few more blooming trees around, and it is no different from other places.
Qian Jiangyue said: "When I came here, Leng An said that at the end of the flower viewing feast, the emperor will lead his courtiers to visit the Imperial Garden."
Lin Xun: "Witches and Gu are the most taboo in the palace. Tang will not be so stupid as to use a formation-breaking technique to kill someone. She wants to trap you."
The emperor had murderous intentions towards Qian Jiangyue. Under the eyes of everyone, surrounded by demon fire, it is not difficult to take the opportunity to convict him.
As soon as the words fell, there was a sound of footsteps in the distance.
"The flower viewing feast didn't end so soon," Lin Xun narrowed his eyes, "It seems that the Tang family can't wait."
"Your Majesty," as the footsteps gradually approached, Tang's voice pretended to be surprised: "Look, what is that?"
Qian Jiangyue had no intention of breaking the formation at all, and waited for their arrival.
A group of people came in a hurry, and Tang could vaguely see two figures standing in front of him. Knowing that the plan was expected to succeed, he said in a voiceless voice, "Could it be, could it be the demon fire?"
At this moment, Lin Xun flicked his sleeves suddenly, and the candles in front of him suddenly drew closer to the center, converging into a heart-shaped pattern, and countless petals fell from the branches and flew in the air. Yupei, caught off guard, knelt down on one knee, took Qian Jiangyue's hand, and said affectionately: "Marry me."
