Chapter 523: Wading through the River

Although these talismans are more difficult, Xuanyuan Po has always held them with faith, but it takes some time to practice and ponder. He watched and brewed in his heart, silently memorizing fingering, footwork, mantras, etc., and before he knew it, the sky outside had been bright.

After breakfast, Xuanyuan Po brought pen and paper cinnabar and tested the talisman by hand. The water avoidance charm is cheap test, there is a fish pond in the courtyard of the partition wall, Niu Meng volunteered to be his test subject, swallowed the talisman paper and jumped into the water.

Then try the god line light talisman, this time it is much cheaper, pat the talisman paper on the forehead to know the result, try the third time, Niu Meng's feet with the wind, as fast as a shadow usually, a handsome jumped up, straight jumped over the wall nearly two meters high.

Niu Meng was overjoyed, "I can fly, I will fly... Alas!" He rejoiced in his excitement, lost his center of gravity, and fell off the wall, shaking the ground three times.

Although this talisman can be lightweight, it is not floating in the air, and you still have to rely on your own skills to be solid in the air.

"Niu Meng, are you okay?" Xuanyuan hurriedly jumped over the wall, but saw that Xie An had been on the edge of Niu Meng and helped him up, and Zhi Daolin and Dao An were also behind him.

Xie An smiled: "It's good that it didn't hit me, otherwise it would be me who was lying on the ground, haha, you two brothers are really happy." ”

"It's a shame to answer, but we're not joking, we're testing a light body talisman, even if you haven't practiced light body skills, you can jump on the roof, and people who have light body exercises can run faster and jump higher. ”

"There are still such talismans, I don't know if I can use them, so give me a few. ”

"This kind of talisman is relatively simple, I will teach you some secrets and use it in isolation, I will draw a few for you. ”

"Don't worry, there is another important thing at the moment, someone came to the palace just now, saying that the Queen Mother wants to see me and the two monks, including you, quickly change a set of clothes and go into the palace with me." ”

Xuanyuan Po was surprised, "The Queen Mother wants to see me, how can she know about me, what does she do when she sees me?"

"You are now a strange person who is famous all over the world, how can she not know? As for why she wants to see you, I don't know this, so let's go and talk about it. ”

Zhi Daolin said: "The monk wanted to go to the palace to have a look, but he didn't expect the queen mother to summon him, which is really a coincidence." ”

"The two grandmasters think that Lu Yansheng is hiding in the palace, and at the same time, this matter has something to do with the people in the palace?"

"The monk doesn't know, let's go and drink a cup of the emperor's good tea first. ”

Daojin said: "I'm afraid that this tea is not cheap to drink." ”

The palace often summons high-ranking monks and celebrities, and it is normal to summon Zhi Daolin and Dao'an, but if you want to see Xuanyuanpo, you are a little unenemy, and Shao Xuanyuanpo feels that he is not an enemy, but he can't help but go.

The Queen Mother summoned her, how dare the four of them slack off, grooming is equivalent to, and they changed their clothes and planned to do so. The eunuch from the palace is surnamed Cao (not called a eunuch at this time), there are about thirty zeros, and he looks handsome and jade, but he looks strange, and his face is even more arrogant, but he is polite to everyone. According to Xie An's Shaojie, he is a close confidant of the Empress Dowager and a crimson person in the palace.

Outside the door, there were two eunuchs and a group of tall soldiers in armor, with heroic faces, shining armor, and bright red cloaks, with a kind of aristocratic pride. The carriage had long been prepared, and the clean horses, the brocade seats, and the openwork sidings all showed royal localism.

Everyone got into the carriage, lowered the curtains, the sound of hooves, the sonorous armor, and the people who crossed the street avoided it, and entered the inner city in a short time, and stopped in the square in front of the palace.

At this time, it was nearly noon, the officials had retreated, Cao Guanren did not enter the front hall with everyone, but turned to a side door, through the heavy building door, the corridor, and walked towards a magnificent palace, Xuanyuan Po recognized the three seals written on the plaque as "Xianyang Palace".

Dao An and Zhi Dao Lin Jiayi probed, but they didn't show half of their faces, and Xuanyuan Po didn't know if they had anything unusual.

Seeing that it was brought by Cao Guanren, the golden-armored warriors on duty in the hall checked a little, and let them in when they saw that there were no weapons on them. The palace is carved with dragons and phoenixes, carved with gold and jade, and the general layout is not far from the palace seen in film and television dramas, but it is not as prosperous and varied as the palace in the Ming and Qing dynasties. At the end of the tent sat a skinny child, no more than ten years old, with a dazzling crown robe, but his eyes were blank and drowsy.

Xuanyuan Po knew that the emperor was still young, but he didn't expect it to be so small, because it was the eighth year of Yonghe, and he insisted that this little emperor had sat on this seat for at least eight years, so wouldn't he become an emperor at the age of one or two?

On the left side of the little emperor sat a dignified and beautiful woman, and there was a row of palace ladies behind her. According to the young age of the little emperor, she should be nearly thirty years old, but at this time, she looks like she is twenty years old, if she changes this full-body dress and loosens this solemn and noble face, she will still be an unmarried girl.

On the first seat below the right side of the little emperor, there was a Taoist in a red robe and a long beard, who was an old acquaintance Wu Meng, and behind him stood two magnificent little Taoists, who should be his apprentices or disciples.

Wu Meng turned his head slightly, squinted and watched the four of them enter, his eyes were as sharp as swords, and he didn't know whether it was anger, hatred, or admonition, in short, it was not a good intention, but he put it away in a flash.

In this era, monks and Taoists have high status and privileges, such as Zhi Daolin and Dao'an, who are famous all over the world, do not have to bow down when they see the emperor, but only inquire with Buddhist etiquette; Xie An knelt down and was polite, Xuanyuan Po really couldn't have the slightest respect for this little child, and would rather kneel down and worship him, just follow behind the two monks, hugging his fists and bending his waist politely.

The little emperor had listened to the Queen Mother and Wu Meng talk for a long time, and he was drowsy, but when he saw a few new faces, he cheered up a little: "All the ministers are flat and sit down." ”

Xianyang Hall is the palace of the little emperor, this is the place of guests, there are more seats on both sides, after everyone thanked the seats, once to the seat, Wu Meng suddenly stood up. "The emperor and the queen mother, this Xuanyuan is undisciplined, and he dares to meet the emperor without worshipping, and he has committed the crime of bullying the king. ”

Xie An, Zhi Daolin, and Daojin were all taken aback, they didn't expect that Wu Meng would make a small fuss, if they really investigated it, this crime could be beheaded.

"Thisβ€”" The little emperor looked at his mother.

The young and handsome Queen Mother's eyes fell on Xuanyuan Po, looking at him left and right, unable to tell whether she was happy or angry. Xuanyuan Po arched his hand again and said: "Xuanyuan Po is just a rough man in the mountains and fields, he doesn't understand the etiquette of the court, and he has no intention of entering the forbidden palace to meet Tianyan, but the emperor and the queen mother summoned him, but how dare he not come." If the people are blamed because they don't understand etiquette, they are afraid that they will cut off the hearing and hearing and block the virtuous road, and the hermits will never dare to enter the court again. ”

After breaking away from the Five Doumi Sect, Xuanyuan Po did not have to shrink his head and tail when doing things, and he got along with Xie An and other celebrities for two or three months.

The Empress Dowager Yu still looked at him quietly, but Wu Meng snorted: "What kind of hermit are you, as far as I know, you are the bandit leader of the Wudoumi Sect of the Hanmen in the south, who specializes in deceiving the world with tricks, causing trouble and causing endless harm." This time I came to the imperial capital, I must have bad intentions, and asked the emperor and the queen mother to take him down and investigate him carefully by the judiciary. ”

Xie An said lonely: "Wu Xianshi can't slander people's innocence, Yuangui is my close friend in trouble, the son-in-law of Wang Yishao, and he has lived in Xie's mansion for several months, if Yuangui is a bandit, what are my Wang and Xie families?"

Half of the Sima family's world is supported by the disciples of the Wang family and the Xie family, and if the Wang and Xie families rioted, the throne would have been replaced long ago, so Xie An's rhetorical question has a lot of weight.

Wu Meng's face changed, although he won the favor of the Queen Mother and had the right to be a minister in the background, but he dared to provoke the Wang and Xie families, he didn't expect Xie An and Xuanyuan to break their hearts and galls to this extent, and they would directly use the two families as a guarantee. He rolled his eyes, and said: "An Shi is afraid that he has been coaxed by him, he is the great sacrificial wine of the Five Doumi Sect Minnan Zhi, and the lie is a divine object from the sky, and the evil words are tricky to the people, and the eyes are hot, and this matter is known to the world." According to Poor Dao's knowledge, he sent someone to arrest the girl of the Wang family, cleverly planned to deceive the woman into believing it, and created a reputation, saying that he was not chaotic and not because of people's popularity, and then pretended to save the girl, so as to break into the Wang family. ”

The little emperor Sima Dan couldn't help but sigh, his eyes widened, "Is there really such a thing?" After speaking, he felt that he was speechless, and looked at the Empress Dowager again. The Empress Dowager still looked at everyone quietly and did not speak.

Xuanyuan Po was secretly angry in his heart, this Wu Meng was really hateful, because he offended him outside Dong'an Temple, and he really planted a false accusation in front of the Queen Mother, but the annoying thing is that he has no evidence to show that Wu Meng's words are a trap, in the eyes of outsiders, the truth is indeed like that. Then, not only Xuanyuan Po has bad intentions, but also the Xie family and the Wang family are accused of colluding with thieves.

What does Empress Dowager Yu mean, isn't it that she summoned her today to ask for the guilt? This is good, the delivery is delivered to the door, and she enters the forbidden palace, and there is no way to escape...

If the Empress Dowager Zhen really wanted to kill him, she would just kill him with an edict, so why did she need to call Zhi Daolin and Dao An to come too? Maybe the truth was not so bad, but Wu Meng wanted to be embarrassed and embarrassed for him, not that the Empress Dowager wanted to kill him.

Thinking of this, Xuanyuan Po settled down a little, the matter between him and Feng Qingxue was incomprehensible, he couldn't ravage and waste and ravage with Wu Meng in this matter. "Immortal Master Wu is a master of the upper generation, how can he point to the east and talk about the west, and look the same as the truth! You say that I am deceiving the world, and you ask me what discussion I have expressed to the people that harms the country and harms the people? You say that I am hot-eyed, but what misdeeds have I done?"

Wu Meng was stunned for a moment, "This, you claim to be a god from the sky and a strange person in the world, you are a trick to deceive the world, and you also publicize how your talisman is magical and collect assets, this is a hot eye." ”

The little emperor looked left and right, and he didn't know who was right; the queen mother still didn't say a word, and even her eyes drooped, as if she was very relieved by the arguments of the two; Xie An, Zhi Daolin, and Daoan all sat aside and didn't interject, and they couldn't intervene in this matter.

Xuanyuan Po saw that the Empress Dowager Yu did not rush, and he put his mind at ease, and said after sneering: "Wu Xianshi's words are even more extraordinary, whether it is a divine object from the sky, or a strange person in the world, it is said by others, I can't be domineering and tell others not to speak, right? What kind of wealth is it to save someone's life and collect five buckets of rice, but I'm afraid that all my body palpitations 9 are not enough for Wu Xianshi, your clothes are worth a lot, right?

Wu Meng was originally embarrassed, but at this time he turned even redder, and pointed at Xuanyuan Po angrily: "If you don't have bad intentions, what are you doing in the imperial capital? ”

Xuanyuan Po gasped, how could Wu Meng know such a thing? Could it be that these two incidents were originally deployed by him?

"Since Immortal Master Wu knows that I am close, he must also know who the perpetrator is, I wonder if the murderer has been captured?

Wu Meng's eyes burst out with murderous intent: "You!"

Empress Dowager Xuan finally spoke, her voice soft and dull, "Immortal Master Wu come down first, I still have a few words to ask them." ”

"Empress Dowager Qiyu, this person has a fame, and he will only take advantage of his tongue, and he is willing to test spells with him and tell his lies. ”

The little emperor was overjoyed: "Okay, it's better than spells, whoever has a profound Taoism, who is a master of Taoism, and what he says depends on the side." ”

"Poor and obedient. Wu Meng immediately agreed.

Empress Dowager Yu coughed lightly, and the little emperor hurriedly closed his mouth, but he was the emperor after all, the words were once spoken, and Wu Meng also complied with the order, and she couldn't argue anymore.

Empress Dowager Yu asked: "Can Zhou Yuangui wish to show the talisman?"

Wu Meng's spell is extremely powerful, which is known to the other, but now he has been in a dilemma, Xuanyuan Po had no choice but to say: "Since the emperor and the queen mother have orders, how dare the people disobey it." ”

The little emperor was happy, and the palace ladies and eunuchs were also smiling, obviously they used to watch other people's fighting methods before, and they liked to watch other people's fighting methods. In modern times, this is as normal as meeting literati and chanting a poem for fun.
