The mother of the child is worried.

The same applies between master and apprentice.

Even if he is not a master and an apprentice, he is also the most respected disciple of the teacher and the Taoist sect. Jia Jiu went to the border in disguise, so naturally he didn't hide it from Daokui and the others. Due to various reasons, Dao Kui and the others did not go directly to the border pass, but they also paid attention to the movement of the border pass from time to time.

In the breeze, Dao Kui sat behind a few cases, carefully baking the Canaan incense slices in his hand with internal force, while the cabinet behind him was neatly stacked with a number of small boxes.

When Jia Jiu was in Beijing, he had to burn incense and practice the piano every day, and the incense he used was all made by Daokui himself without exception. Even if he hadn't been in the Dao Gate for a long time, Dao Kui was used to putting together an extra incense stick for him every time. In the past few months, Jia Jiu has not been there, and Dao Kui has accumulated several boxes of incense here.

Almost everyone in the family knows how to combine incense with one or two hands, and each person's understanding of incense is different, and the method of combining incense is not necessarily the same. The practice of incense made by Daokui is to use internal strength to concoct various materials of incense first, and then combine incense. His internal strength is hydrophilic, and the fragrance synthesized by the spices that have been treated in this way has a lingering and tired charm. This is one of Daokui's signature characteristics, and it is also the main reason why Jia Jiu favors this incense.

However, today's Daokui's choice to make incense is of course a routine, and half of the reason is to suppress the uneasiness in his heart.

In any case, Jia Jiu can almost be said to have been raised by him. Even if this kid is amazingly talented - Dao Kui doesn't know that Jia Jiu has a cheat gold finger, just if Jia Jiu is talented, he will benefit quickly. -- The environment of the Jia family. Jia Jiu was eight years old and had never asked him to be a gentleman, and of course the people in the Daomen regarded Jia Jiu as a Daokui who was raised by Daokui. This is also a well-known fact in Beijing - he was also a child, and he went to the border alone. Even if the martial arts are outstanding. But in the north, there are also capable people. How can you not worry about it?

Putting the Canaan incense piece in his hand aside, Dao Kui picked up another piece, and before he could condense his internal strength, he heard someone coming in a hurry.

"Mu Qingshuang, what's going on?"

Mu Qingshuang smiled and sat down in front of Daokui. said: "If I don't move quickly, I'm afraid someone will worry about it." ”

"How? But there's news from Tongyunliu? Even if he was teased, Dao Kui did not refute it. Tongyunliu, that is, Jia Jiu's meaning to Daomen, does not need him to repeat it again and again.

"After Tong Yunliu led people to attack the Qingniu Department. So far, not a word has been heard. There are just rumors that several tribes have disappeared from the steppe. ”

Dao Kui was stunned for a moment, and the movements in his hands also stopped.

From the perspective of its practical posterity, many etiquettes are perverted. Especially between parents and children. This is described in the Book of Rites. There is a detailed record in the twelfth chapter of the Internal Rules. Etiquette, in general, should become simpler and simpler with the development of society. The etiquette of the Jia family seems cumbersome, but in the eyes of many people, the etiquette of the Jia family is very rude. Just like serving Jia's mother to eat, Mrs. Wang can still have a seat and eat the meals specially prepared for him in the kitchen. But according to the ancient rites, he must stand from beginning to end. can only eat Jia's mother's leftovers.

Of course, this etiquette has become loose with the times. It has also become another proof that the Jia family is a nouveau riche family.

The problem is that this etiquette is not only used between parents and family, but also between master and apprentice.

According to the proper etiquette, since Jia Jiu was included in the gate wall by the Daomen, he should live in the territory of the Daomen, for example, on Yuqing Mountain, while receiving the teachings of the Dao Kui, he also served the Dao Kui with him. This is the proper disciple's style.

Because Jia Jiu is a girl, because Dao Kui is taking apprentices instead of Dao Zun, because of all kinds of reasons, Jia Jiu does not have to follow Dao Kui to serve with him. This also gave everyone an illusion that the Daomen only needed to use Jia Jiu, which was why they were so unsophisticated. This illusion also greatly blurred Jia Jiu's importance to the Daomen. There are only a few people at the top of the Daomen who know the importance of Jia Jiu.

Among these people, only a few or three people knew that Jia Jiu had gone to the border pass, and most of them only knew that Jia Jiu was in retreat in Yuqing Mountain, because Jia Yu was Jia Jiu's father, and Dao Kui was so concerned about the border pass.

And Mu Qingshuang is one of these two or three people. But it was only limited to the fact that Jia Jiu went to the border.

"Another thing, Yuqing Mountain has come today. He had only come here after hearing in advance that Dao Kui had not retreated. Daokui, you can't hide this time. ”

When Dao Kui heard this, he added a layer of trouble.

Mu Qingshuang said: "Fellow practitioner for many years, Dao Kui, I never knew that you cared so much about worldly things. ”

Dao Kui smiled bitterly: "Friend, if I tell you, Long Live will come to Yuqing Mountain again and again, in fact, it is because of a strategy, can you believe it?" ”

Mu Qingshuang said: "This Ling Fengzi has already confirmed. It's just that Ling Fengzi also said that the strategy in Banzai's hand is Daokui's handwriting, and it is genuine. ”

Dao Kui smiled bitterly: "What if I say that the creator of this strategy is not me, but Tongyunliu?" ”

"He? How can it be? How old is he! ”

Dao Kui said: "You really don't believe it. You'll know if you've seen it. ”

Dao Kui got up and took out a thick stack of papers from the dark compartment of the bookshelf behind him.

"What is this?"

"I had a conversation with Tong Yunliu at the beginning. I recorded it afterwards. The later strategy was based on this repeated scrutiny and addendum. The problem was that except for a few people who were there that day, no one wanted to believe that Tong Yunliu was the creator of that strategy. ”

Mu Qingshuang flipped through the stack of papers and said, "In this way, Tongyunliu's qualifications are not only above martial arts, but also in Taoxue!" ”

Dao Kui said: "Not bad. The people in my Daomen have always been casual, which also makes our Daomen seem like a plate of loose sand in many cases. To put it mildly, if there had been a strategist like Tong Yunliu in the Daomen back then, maybe we would not have fallen for other people's calculations. Mu Qingshuang, I don't want Tongyunliu to stop at the Daozi candidate. ”

Mu Qingshuang said: "I see, Daokui has never shown this draft in front of anyone. One is because others won't believe it, and the other is because they hope that the royal people won't pay attention to Tong Yunliu, at least not to discover his talent in this area. Is that so? ”

Dao Kui sighed. "Current events change. In the past, although there was a prejudice that women had long hair and short knowledge, they would not completely turn women away. However, in recent years, many women have appeared, who do not have much ability themselves, but they seem to have to point fingers at the government. If they can listen to the advice of others, or they are newcomers to officialdom. That's better. It's a pity that they are women, and those old fritters in the officialdom are not good at sticking their hands into other people's houses; The families of these women themselves want to take advantage of nepotism. I wish they could be a little more beautiful. It's a pity that the court was made into a miasma by these women, and the world became more and more dissatisfied with women's interference in court politics. Both the Emperor Taishang and the present long live have issued orders more than once that the harem is not allowed to interfere in politics. If you let people know Tongyunliu's talent in this, I'm afraid that Tongyunliu will be ruined. ”

Mu Qingshuang also agrees with this. What kind of family is the Jia family? The people in the capital are clear. It's not nice to say. That's because it's not uncommon for girls in their family to do this (such as Jia Min), and girls who want to do something on it don't have the ability (such as Jia Yuanchun). If it weren't for the fact that the two rooms of the Jia family were too noisy before, and even the three lives of the big house were lost, I am afraid that someone would have already calculated Tongyunliu.

Now, the old lady of the Jia family just wants to calculate, and it depends on whether his eldest son wants to be him.

Mu Qingshuang said: "It seems that Dao Kui is also very clear about the affairs of the Jia family. It's just that I'm curious, why is Dao Kui so popular? Aren't you afraid that he will repeat the mistakes of the past? ”

Dao Kui pointed to the stack of papers in front of Mu Qingshuang. "Here's the answer. Unlike those women in the past, Tong Yunliu is not here to show himself. Nor is it for selfish gain. In his layout, it is the people of the world who get the greatest benefits, then the country, and then the various forces involved. As for himself and himself, the end result was very little. In his words, the Jia family has a shallow foundation, and he himself is a girl, so getting too much at once is not a good thing, it will only make his family a child who lives in the city with gold bricks. ”

"Tong Yunliu really said that?"

Daokui said: "More than once." If it is self-denial, I would say that he is strong-willed and has outstanding character, and if it is because of his vision, then I will say that he is qualified. But in reality he is both. Such a child makes me can't help but want to see his future. ”

Mu Qingshuang said: "Dao Kui, even if you value this child, he is a girl after all. Now that you have a preference for him and your respect, many Taoist friends have talked about it, if you ...... It's a pity, why isn't this kid a boy? ”

Dao Kui said: "If it was a boy, I am afraid that he would have been sent to the palace to become the Taoist companion of the princes." Where to wait for today! That's it. ”

Mu Qingshuang said: "After talking about it for a long time, Dao Kui, long live, do you want to see me?" This is the fourth time people have come to visit you. ”

Dao Kui sighed and said, "Since that's the case, let's see each other." ”

It is still the four-corner pavilion by the lotus pond, and the lotus in the pond is a different species brought back by Daokui from a certain experience, even if the mountain is late, the peach blossoms on the mountainside have just bloomed, and these lotus flowers are already budding.

When the emperor saw these lotus flowers, he smiled: "When I saw this lotus flower, I remembered an old thing. At that time, I was still young, and the eldest brother was still there, and he liked to tease us younger brothers the most. One year, on a snowy day, a pot of blooming lotus flowers was brought below, and the eldest brother teased us who had not yet read and said that it was Snow Lotus. At that time, the Empress Dowager Rende was still there, and his old man had to use snow lotus in medicine every year. Then a few of our brothers said that the eldest brother was deceiving, who knows, the eldest brother said confidently: 'Snow lotus is the lotus flower that grows in the snow, and now it is a snowy day, and this lotus flower blooms well, what is not snow lotus?' We can't talk about him, and there are even a few royal brothers who think that the eldest brother is very reasonable. ”

National Teacher Ling Bozi said with a smile: "It seems that Banzai and King Chitose of Jin have a very good relationship. ”

The Emperor smiled: "Yes, although the eldest brother likes to tease us, he really has nothing to say to us brothers. In the eyes of the eldest brother, no matter who our mother concubine is, whether we are favored or not, we are his younger brothers. If the eldest brother had always been good, there would have been no later things. It's a pity. The eldest brother left too early. ”

The national teacher saluted, and waited for the emperor to walk over before he followed.

Of course, he knew the emperor's thoughts. The emperor himself was unwilling to be amiable. I don't want my daughter to suffer this sin. But around him, there was a group of people shouting for harmony, and the ones who made the most trouble were his sons. In the end, the emperor had to choose between a son and a daughter. It's just that the emperor's heart has fallen into a knot after all.

The national teacher sighed in his heart.

Dao Kui, this time, you really can't hide. Long live the sex. Definitely not going to keep you locked him out.

At this moment, the Emperor saw at a glance two people standing under the vine trellis above, one of whom was dressed in a blue and black robe. There is a blue crystal crown on his head, and he has a face exactly like the national teacher, which one is not Dao Kui?

When he saw Daokui, the emperor was stunned at first. Then there was great joy. Hurriedly stepped forward, and when he walked to the edge of the grapevine shelf, the emperor slowed down, took care of his instrument slightly, and then stepped forward and said, "Daokui, see you for a long time." ”

Daokui turned around and sang a word. Said: "Let Banzai wait for a long time." ”

The emperor waved his hand again and again: "It's okay, it's okay." The scenery on Yuqing Mountain is charming, which makes people forget to return. Dao Kui is also a master. Why don't I come a few more times? ”

There is nothing wrong with saying this, but everyone in the room knows that these are just kind words. The king of ten thousand vehicles is the king of ten thousand vehicles.

The emperor sat down on the big stone on the side, and asked Daokui and others to sit on the stone drum below, and then said: "I heard that Daokui is inquiring about the border pass recently?" But for Jia Junjun? ”

"Yes?"

The emperor smiled: "Jia Yu's father and son are in An Yuanwei, although there have been many accidents before, but now they have all passed. Whether it is Jia Jianjun or Jia Zhushu, they are all fine, and they have made a lot of contributions. I heard that there is also a credit to this matter? ”

Dao Kui said: "Let Banzai laugh." Tong Yunliu, the child, was worried about his father, so he rummaged through the books at home, and then found this method in the old Guogong's codex, and used his status as a candidate for the golden cloth Daozi to put pressure on the disciples below and sent a lot of things to his father. Tong Yunliu interfered in state affairs without authorization, and Poor Dao had already punished him. ”

The emperor said: "Dao Kui is too strict. This child is just worried about his father and brother, how can it be said that it is his fault? If I had half of him for my children, I would be satisfied. ”

Dao Kui hurriedly said: "Long live, your highnesses are all dragons and phoenixes among people......"

The emperor waved his hand and said, "Dao Kui, you don't have to speak for them. I don't know what's going on in their minds? It's just for personal gain! Calculations come and go, and it's not the chair I'm sitting on that counts?! When I don't know anything! Changle's child, just because he is the only flesh and blood left by my cousin, they can't tolerate him! If my sons and daughters were half of Jia Junjun's, I wouldn't have to worry so much. ”

The great eunuch Wang Jien said: "Then why don't you add the title of Jia Junjun?" ”

The emperor said, "That girl won't accept it." What he wants is for his father and brother to return safely, and if I seal him, he will definitely dare to open this mouth with me! ”

Saying that, the emperor said a little embarrassedly: "Daokui, this, I think you've heard of it too, right?" The girl made a deal with me. The tricky little girl took the agreement between Emperor Gaozu and Rongguo Gong and sold it to me, not only took off the hot potato in her hand, but also let me admit his love. What's more, I'm still willing! Even I was glad about it, thinking that if there was such a calculation, the more I would be better. Now, though, I have only one question. I heard that the girl was taught by Dao Kui, so I don't know if Dao Kui can solve my doubts? ”

The play meat is coming.

Dao Kui sighed and said, "Long live actually want to ask who the strategy came from, right?" ”

"Exactly. I wonder if Dao Kui can solve my doubts? ”

Dao Kui told the truth. He was sure that no one would believe him even if he told the truth.

"It's true. As for that strategy, it was supplemented by Poor Dao based on a conversation with Tongyunliu one day. As for how Tong Yunliu thought of this, or where he learned about it, Poor Dao has nothing to say. ”

The emperor said, "Really? ”

"Seriously."

The silence spread, and the emperor was angry, but he had to endure it. Just as the world recognizes, the Great Qi royal family does not have the strength to fight the Daomen, and it is impossible for him, the emperor, to take the Dao Kui well.

The emperor hesitated for a moment before he said, "I heard that the Jia family sent someone to the north. It was a very young girl. ”

Dao Kui replied, "The person who went to the north is the eldest niece of Tongyunliu. For this reason, Tong Yunliu gave his skills to that child, and he had to retreat. This is a matter known to the world. ”

Everyone knows that it is not the same as the truth.

Daomen has an appointment with people, so Daokui said so.

Knowing that the Daomen had an appointment with people, the emperor kept silent.

The emperor said: "Dao Kui, do you know that the child disappeared after leaving An Yuanwei?" ”

"Oh?"

Dao Kui finally raised his head and looked at the emperor. The emperor only felt that his heart sank, that is, how many plans he had before, but he couldn't even speak at the moment.

It took a while to gather his mind before the emperor said: "According to the information obtained by An Yuanwei, it is said that passive defense cannot solve An Yuanwei's problem, so he chose to take the initiative. (To be continued......)
