Chapter 216 Those under the magnificent (above)
Lotus Peak is in full bloom, probably because it is dipped in Wudang Mountain’s immortal qi, the three religions and nine streams are able to melt and enjoy themselves on the mountain, in this context, the foot of the mountain to escape the summer town of Wang Yuan Yuan and his entourage’s return journey is particularly bleak, and almost every one of them is injured, especially their departure, going to be more of a battlefield than when they came, and it was only when the hospitality and warmth of the Horned Eagle lieutenant Luo Hong dispatched one hundred riders to escort them close to their hearts. In the meantime, there is one thing that makes the guests on the mountain feel puzzled, it is said that the vice official of the Ministry of the Central Committee Zhao right age, the Ministry of the Ministry of Ministers Yin Maochun, the new Huainan Road, Han Lin and the children of the Duke of Yan, after arriving at the foot of the mountain, and even surprised the King of Beiliang personally came down to meet, the two sides are very “see each other and hate to see each other late”.
Two sets of family children very different treatment, almost let a person mistakenly think that the day to change, until a horrifying gossip circulated, said that the great snow ping jianghu ten in the capital of the first swordsman Qi Jiajie, disappeared out of thin air, did not appear in the procession of the departure of the country, replaced by the East Vietnam sword pool Chai Qingshan, some chewing, all the people have hardly ever come back to the taste, dare to say that this king of the northern Liang is also enough to be underhanded, not only This Northern Liang King is also very underhanded, not only did he secretly lay down a cruel hand, but he also intends to make it difficult for those big shots to sleep and eat! If this is spread to the Central Plains, Zhao right Ling a few pivotal big brother is not bad, after all, are His Majesty’s close ministers, find an opportunity to speak out, to the current son of the emperor is not inferior to the emperor’s wisdom and capacity, certainly will not be hit by the north of Liang’s disjointed plan, but just from the Ministry of Justice Minister of the position of the capital to leave the Han Lin will have to suffer, the Huainan Road, the gang of arrogant and used to the military ruffians can not seize the handle to cause trouble?
With this calculation, the people of Yin Changgeng this group of promising young talent are more and more sympathetic, especially the gang of Jiangnan Road literati, one by one threatened to absolutely not let the North Ryang this shallow trick succeed, as long as they return back to the Jiangnan, will be in the literary world in the scholarly world spared no effort to Yin Changgeng Han awake words and so on to prove innocence, prove that the future pillars of the dynasty of the Liyang in the Wudang Mountain under the heavenly wrongdoing. A number of elegant scholars had made an appointment to join forces to visit that newly-appointed Lord Secretary of the Huainan Road on their return trip to cheer him on. Squire Han has always been known in the capital for his boldness in advice and his subtle and clear talk, and he must not let such a good and loyal official be frustrated at the local level! Since we are all students together, even if we have never met that Lord Han, it is incumbent upon us to help!
Mr. White Lotus has made two new friends on Wudang Mountain, Luo Hongcai and Sui Tieshan, the second-in-command of the spies in Youzhou, and in his conversation with them, he was informed of the movements up and down the mountain, especially the righteous indignation of those famous scholars from the south of the Yangtze River, which Bai Yu laughed off, but at the same time, his feelings were even deeper, not only because of the small plans in the belly of the elegant scholar, and not only because of the fact that Xu Fengyen has already left for Liuzhou. It’s not just that Xu Fengnian has personally left for Liuzhou to temporarily take over the post of Liangzhou General which was originally held by Beiliang’s general Chu Lushan, it’s more that under the contrast between the two, the Beiliang’s kind of silence that they take for granted, even Sui Tieshan’s talk about the movement of the literati of the Central Plains is just a joke, and even the lieutenant Luo Hongcai, who has rolled over the border from the pile of dead people for several times, didn’t show his indignation and depression in front of Bai Yu.
The two gave Bai Yu the impression that the northern Liang for the deep-rooted misunderstanding of the court of Liyang, simply do not take it seriously, Liyang you scold me? You scold well, I am lazy to care about you. Toward you to move the knife? Thinking is thinking, do but also will not do, because it seems that from the great general Xu Snapdragon to the new Liang King Xu Fengyen, are used to take the anger to the head of the barbarians of the North Mang, not happy to talk to that group of readers general understanding. Of course, if these people like Wang Yuanyan are in a hurry to reincarnate and come to Beiliang, with a face that looks like they want to beat me up, then it’s simple, not to beat me up for nothing, and they will not hesitate to hit you hard, and I’ll make sure you don’t even recognize your parents.
Bai Yu lives in a secluded hut in the Ziyang Palace at the top of the mountain, unlike other neighbors, Bai Yu lives surrounded by Wudang Taoists, is a quiet word generation of Taoists temporarily have something to do with the mountain before they vacate the place, a lot of Taoist priests come to visit Mr. White Lotus to teach with Bai Yu, and the last was the palm of the law of the real Chen Careless a lesson, only to let the white Yu clean and free, in fact, Bai Yu himself does not hate this! In fact, Bai Yu himself doesn’t hate this. Spring frogs and autumn cicadas, when listened to in different places, may be a world apart in terms of croaking and Zen flavor. Bai Yu actually knows that Zhao Ningshen said at the time that he wanted to practice on Wudang Mountain for ten years, but he was not curious about the secular atmosphere of the mountain, which is the ancestral home of Taoism, and the Taoist priests of all generations on the mountain have to interpret signatures and write letters every ten days, so why is it that after Lu Zu, especially in the last hundred years, there have been a series of Huang Manshan, Wang Chonglou, Hong Shuxiang and Li Yuxue? Why is it that after Lü Zu, especially in the last hundred years, there have been such eccentric Taoist priests as Huang Manshan, Wang Chonglou, Hung Chuanxiang and Li Yuqi? None of them are willing to ascend to the next level, but the incense has overpowered Lung Fu Shan?
What is the point of practicing Taoism if you don’t become an immortal?
Chang Sui Xu Huang several people heard that Mr. White Lotus in the Ziyang Palace, also visited Bai Yu, probably taboo that shallow words, both sides are tacitly agreed to talk about local conditions and people do not say military affairs. On the contrary, there is a side of Li stuff and north-south little monk door, gave Bai Yu a big surprise, the little girl is directly with live chickens and ducks into the door, perhaps all the way to flap really tired, chickens and ducks in the little girl into the door has been sickly resigned to the little girl said it seems that the Lung Fu Shan outside the name of the Taoist priests can eat meat, these chickens and ducks are at the foot of the mountain to escape from the heat of the town to buy, and picked two of the largest to Mr. White Lotus make up! The little girl also thanked Mr. White Lotus for inviting them to have tea at the Heavenly Master’s Mansion, which made Bai Yu laugh and cry, thinking that this little girl is really nostalgic. At dinner time, the little girl personally went to the Ziyang Palace cookhouse to give Bai Yu a big pot of chicken stew, the north and south of the little monk did not dare to eat on the table, squatting in the doorway over there chanting Amitabha Buddha. As a result, Bai Yu has not yet moved a few chopsticks, a woman in a small Taoist boy led the way to the aggressive inquisition, followed by a white monk, Bai Yu quickly put down the chopsticks to get up to welcome the woman to see Mr. White Lotus, the face of a few points better, but still whispering muttered, this girl, gift giving is a gift, but there is not the biggest chickens and ducks in the family to send a gift to the stupid daughter, really with her father, do not know the family!
The white-robed monk sits down and gestures for Bai Yu to continue eating, laughing: “I heard that the Wu family’s big and small real people holding the imperial decree are already at the foot of the mountain, but for the time being, they have no intention of climbing the mountain, but together with Han Gui of the Castle Peak Guan and Mr. White Lotus, this is bullying the poor monks to fight alone.”
Bai Yu suddenly asks an ill-timed question, “Do you know who the head of Zhao Hook really is, sir?”
Li Dangxin, however, replied, “Calling Mr. White Lotus, who was bestowed by the late emperor, sir, makes the poor monk flattered.”
Bai Yu, who has always been gentle and courteous in his dealings with others, is unprecedentedly aggressive, “Some say it’s Yang Tai Sui, who has died outside the border, some say it’s Han Sheng Xuan, the cat who died violently, and some say it’s Artemisia Liu, the caretaker of Tai’an City back then.”
Li Dangxin bluntly said, “Cao Changqing went to the two Zen temples to look for poor monks back then, and even he, Zhao hook’s greatest nemesis, wasn’t too clear, Cao Changqing could only guess that it was that emperor teacher who had gone into hiding, Yuan Benxi. However, Zhao hook really do things five, Cao Changqing encountered three, killed a planted in Guangling Road, the remaining four, a master of all the Northland practitioners in the early years, now into the light pole. A control of all titled in the Ministry of Criminal Affairs of the copper fish embroidered bag of jianghu people, there is another, replacing the dead one to look at the movement of the Guangling Road, the last one well, on the clouds and fog, only heard that it may be responsible for targeting the North Liang’s important chess pieces, as for who, I’m afraid that in the Yuan Benshi ‘disappearance’, no one knows, even His Majesty the emperor is not an exception. exception.”
Li Dangxin curiously asked, “Why is Mr. White Lotus asking this?”
Bai Yu smiled, “I’m going to Qingliang Mountain for two years, and I’m afraid of dying there.”
Li Dangxin frowns, “You’re guessing that person is within the Northern Liang King’s residence? That can’t be right, there’s Xu Snapdragon and Li Yishan ……”
Bai Yu shook his head and interrupted, “It’s not necessarily a character that has been lurking for a long time, it could be someone who went after, such as …… Song Dongming, the Deputy Secretary General of the Northern Liang Dao.”
Li Dangxin stroked his bald head and murmured.
The white-robed monk laughed, “And regardless of whether Song Dongming is one of Zhao Hook’s people, this hand of Mr. White Lotus to kill with a borrowed knife is not very good.”
Bai Yu, who hadn’t eaten more than a few mouthfuls of rice, put down his chopsticks and laughed, “You can’t do harm to others, but you can’t do nothing to prevent others from harming you. Regarding Song Dongming’s identity, I’m only guessing for no reason, but since I’ve made up my mind to live through two years in Northern Liang, I’m forced to use some unorthodox means, and to be honest, even if Mister doesn’t come today, I’ll go to Mister tomorrow and implore him to go to Qingliang Mountain with me. So something girl this meal, Bai Yu ate with a guilty conscience, if not really greedy, is not even a chopstick can not go down.”
The white-robed monk mumbles to himself, “If the Zhao Hook big head is really Yuan Benxi, then it’s really possible that Song Dongming, the Reserve Prime Minister who was first green-eyed and then given the boot, is one of the Zhao Hooks, but at the same time, assuming that both of them are Zhao Hooks characters, it’s also possible that Song Dongming will just be completely dead-set on doing things for Northern Liang.”
Bai Yu nodded: “Li Yang Emperor killed half inch tongue Yuan Benxi, not simply is unloading donkey so simple, naturally is afraid of Yuan Benxi hands hold Zhao hook power, after the death of the late emperor, Yuan Benxi for today’s son of heaven is too unpredictable, compared to the Northern Liang iron cavalry seems to be far away from the doorstep of snoring thunder, Yuan Benxi is more of that side of the couch breathing, even if it is very light, but it is even more let people It is difficult to sleep peacefully. Yang Taishou died, Liu Artemisia died, Han Shengxuan died, Xie Guanying left, who else in Tai’an city can check and balance Mr. Yuan, who was able to get along with the late emperor? That said, if Yin Maochun or someone else is Yuan Benxi’s final choice for the storage phase on the stage, Song Dongming can only be reduced to a shadow phase, even if Song Dongming is disheartened by Yuan Benxi’s death, I’m afraid of the eventuality ……”
Li stuff listening to the head is big, simply down chopsticks like flying, not to listen to these troublesome things.
The woman gave the north and south little monk a bowl of white rice, clip some veggies piled on the tip of the rice, the little monk squatted at the door to eat.
The white-robed monk looked at this Mr. White Lotus and laughed, “A hundred hears are better than one sight.”
Bai Yu laughed to himself, “I should have disappointed mister.”
Li Dangxin sighed and looked down at the table full of food, “Bei Liang this has the air of a temple. Look at the color and flavor, but may not eat, it seems that when the emperor is indeed not much taste, no wonder the kid surnamed Xu ……”
Li things slammed chopsticks, “Father, you talk to people chatter on chatter on your, but these meals are all I do!”
The white-robed monk immediately asked his daughter-in-law to go and get an extra set of chopsticks, which stretched out his thumbs before he even ate, “Yummy!”
