Zhenguan Temple.

When Li Longji met Yang Yun, he was pleasant, different from what Gao Lishi said, his tone was very tactful, and he did not directly mention Yang Yun's alchemy in the "Heavenly Kingdom", but talked about Yang Yuhuan's recent situation.

"I hope that the national teacher can enter the palace more often, talk to the concubine, and let her ......be relieved" Li Longji went around in a circle, and he was as hypocritical as Gao Lishi.

Yang Yun bowed to the leader's order.

Li Longji said again: "I heard that the Heavenly Master has been refining the pill unsmoothly recently? It seems that there is not enough space and manpower? ”

Yang Yun thought to himself, who else can you listen to?

Of course, only Colliers, who are isolated from the inside and outside, have this ability.

I just sent Gao Lishi's people away in the early hours of this morning, and you summoned me immediately, so needless to say, Gao Lishi must be talking nonsense about you.

Yang Yun said: "Back to Your Majesty, the minister is in accordance with His Majesty's requirements, bent on refining the best elixir, the minister has tried alchemy in the territory of Datang, and it has always been difficult to refine the best elixir, thinking about it, it should be caused by the lack of aura in heaven and earth, so he can only go to the kingdom of heaven......"

"Oh? I don't know where the kingdom of heaven is? ”

Li Longji's face was full of confusion.

Yang Yun replied: "It is a place outside the Fang, not within the Three Realms, and it cannot be visited unless it is guided by the High and Profound Dao Method." ”

Li Longji pretended to be interested, with a little excitement in his eyes, and said, "If you have time, you must take me to take a look." ”

Yang Yun's heart froze, Li Longji was obviously testing him.

As the emperor, what he is most worried about is that this place outside the world is connected to any place in the world, like a ghost, like a shadow, then Li Longji will have trouble sleeping, after all, the more powerful people are, the more they cherish their lives, he is worried that someone will suddenly kill him in his sleep, so where is there a sense of security?

When Gao Lishi found out Li Longji's intentions, his heart moved, and he hurriedly said: "Why don't you show it here as the national teacher, and let the old slave go to see it for Your Majesty?" ”

Yang Yun shook his head regretfully and sighed: "The land outside the square is very special, there is an enchantment barrier with the Tang Dynasty, and it must be used as a traction to enter and exit it...... Directly torn into pieces by the enchantment, the soul enters the underworld, or goes through the six reincarnations......"

"Circle?"

Li Longji will be skeptical.

Gao Lishi frowned and said, "Isn't it okay to set up a magic circle in the palace?" Your Majesty just wants to go and see, the national teacher doesn't have to be so secretive, right? ”

Yang Yun's expression was solemn, and he said, "It's not that the minister intends to cover it up, it's really powerless...... There are only three places in the world that can connect the outside of the world, and there is only one house in Beicheng around Luoyang......

Gao Lishi was very unhappy when he heard this, and immediately questioned Yang Yun's statement.

"Just a house? National teacher, as the old slave knows, it seems that this is not the case, right? ”

Gao Lishi suddenly raised his voice and stared at Yang Yun viciously, trying to catch him off guard and let Yang Yun reveal the truth in a panic.

But I didn't know that Yang Yun had been prepared for a long time, how could he be intimidated by Gaolis's false words? He immediately retorted: "Could it be that General Gao also knows how to enter and exit the Heavenly Kingdom?" Know the insy? In that case, such ignorance should not be uttered! ”

"You!"

Gao Lishi talked to Yang Yun so much along the way, and suddenly found that it was useless, and suddenly became angry, and looked at Yang Yun more and more fiercely.

Li Longji looked impatient, waved his hand, and said, "I will send someone to the foreign land with the national teacher to find out, if you can refine the best elixir in the land outside the square, I will greatly assist." ”

Li Longji probably also saw Gao Lishi's hostility towards Yang Yun, with his city government, of course, both sides should not believe it first, and wait for him to find someone to test it, seeing is believing, it is much better than listening to Gao Lishi and Yang Yun arguing here.

"Yes, Your Majesty." Yang Yun saluted.

Gao Lishi was naturally very unconvinced, how could he miss the excellent opportunity for Yang Yun to lose the emperor's trust?

"Your Majesty, why don't you go to the Heavenly Kingdom in person and find out?" Colliers took the initiative to ask.

Li Longji waved his hand and said, "Lux, you are someone close to me, how can you easily let you take risks...... I will arrange for someone to go to a foreign land with the national teacher, and you don't have to worry about this matter. ”

Part of Gaolis's purpose was achieved, that is, to successfully arouse Li Longji's suspicion and personally send someone to investigate.

But he underestimated Li Longji's trust in Yang Yun, relying on that set of almost provocative rhetoric, but there was no conclusive evidence, and Li Longji could not change his yearning for Taoism, let alone take Yang Yun under the knife, no matter how Yang Yun was behind him, there was a Yang Yuhuan that Li Longji thought about for a long time.

Perhaps Li Longji knew that the previous confrontation caused a conflict between Yang Yun and Gao Lishi, and the matter of sending Yang Yun out of the palace was handed over to the eunuch to do.

Not long after Yang Yun left the palace, Li Linfu got the news that he went to his temporary residence to see Yang Yun who had just returned home.

"Virtuous son-in-law, why didn't you tell me in advance about such a big matter as your alchemy? You have privately requisitioned people, but you have committed a taboo in the imperial court. Li Linfu said in a stern tone as soon as he came up.

probably means that Yang Yun will listen to him in everything in the future, but in fact, Li Linfu's attitude on some things is no different from Gao Lishi.

Yang Yun's expression was very relaxed, and he shrugged his shoulders and said, "It's just to mobilize people to refine the pill, Your Majesty has ordered it before, and I just act according to Your Majesty's wishes...... Li Xilang doesn't have to talk too seriously about the problem, the most important thing to scare himself is to ......"

Li Linfu said solemnly: "It seems that you don't know the rules of the court, since the founding of the Tang Dynasty, there have been countless people who have rebelled, and you have Taoist magic, you are already afraid of Your Majesty, and you don't know how respectful your status in the court is now, so many ministers covet Your Majesty's trust in you, as long as you show a little weakness, you will attack it in groups...... Son-in-law, your situation is very delicate! ”

Yang Yun glanced at Li Linfu, thinking to himself that you old boy didn't just want to scare me and let me know the current predicament, right?

"I heard that Your Majesty has arranged for someone to investigate you, listen to the old man, hurry up and dismiss the people over there, it doesn't matter if you can refine the pill, the most important thing is not to let Your Majesty doubt your motives."

Li Linfu made a request that sounded reasonable, but it was absurd.

Letting Yang Yun stop refining pills is tantamount to saying that giving up all the previous efforts, of course, Yang Yun can't accept it.

"Since Your Majesty wants to check, just let someone check it, I can sit upright, and I am not afraid of others checking at all...... Li Xilang, you don't have to persuade each other, if Li Xilang is also interested, I can take you to the Heavenly Kingdom to have a look. Yang Yun didn't take Li Linfu's opinion seriously at all.

It's not that Yang Yun doesn't guard against this, it's that he can't make changes, he can't completely give up the reclamation points he worked so hard to build, and now the colonization of America is known by the imperial court, but what he temporarily understands is that there is an alchemy camp in the "Heavenly Country" that he fabricated, and there are no weapons here, and the transfer is just a group of craftsmen and laborers, which poses no threat to the imperial court at all.

"Listen to the old man, keeping it will make you infinitely useful, but since you refuse to accept the virtuous son-in-law, the old man will not care about himself. If something happens in the future, you can come to the old man, and the old man will help you. ”

Li Linfu showed that he took good care of Yang Yun, probably so that Yang Yun could remember his current advice when he was making amends.

Yang Yun nodded in response, and single-mindedly sent Li Linfu away as soon as possible.

In his opinion, being known by Li Longji that he had a close relationship with Li Linfu may be more likely to arouse suspicion than knowing that he has alchemy camps in South America.

……

……

Seeing Li Linfu away, it didn't take long for the messenger sent by Li Longji to arrive.

This time it was three eunuchs who were sent, probably because Li Longji didn't trust what the foreign ministers said, so he directly sent his personal eunuchs to investigate the real situation with his henchmen and go back to tell him.

Yang Yun entertained the three of them, and his attitude was the same as that of the people sent by Gao Lishi before.

After taking them around Camp No. 1 in the Americas, and entertaining them for a sumptuous barbecue dinner, he sent them back, and the three of them immediately went back to report to Li Longji.

"Lux, you also heard it, I said that it is impossible for the national teacher to do something that endangers the court and society, and you still don't believe it."

Li Longji listened to the report of the eunuch, and his heart suddenly calmed down, and he felt that this statement was obviously much more reliable than Gaolis.

Li Longji asked Gao Lishi to listen together, in order to show his respect for Gao Lishi, and when he found that the situation described was completely different from what Gao Lishi said, he did not ask Gao Lishi what the purpose of what he said before, but only used a relatively soft tone to make Gao Lishi accept it with relief.

Gao Lishi's expression was restrained, he could see that he was in a hurry, which caused the emperor's vigilance and Yang Yun's displeasure, and it was not so easy to bring down his political enemies.

"The old slave is also dedicated to thinking about His Majesty, to prevent treacherous evil people from betraying His Majesty behind his back, endangering the stability of the Tang Dynasty."

Colliers showed a posture of loyalty.

Li Longji nodded and said, "Lux, am I still not at ease with you?" I remember that in the past, when Webster was in power, you persuaded me to raise troops to eliminate rebellion, unite with the imperial aunt to kill Webster's henchmen, force the emperor who had been on the throne for less than a month, and help my father ascend the throne as emperor; Later, the imperial aunt attempted a coup d'état, and it was you who decisively assisted me, cut off the imperial aunt's wings, and set things right, it can be said that without you, I would not be where I am today, so I have always valued you, but you can't always ask the national teacher about me because I have something recently, and you have a grudge against the national teacher......"

"Your Majesty, the minister doesn't." When Gao Lishi heard this, he thought that Li Longji was accusing him of being a chicken, so he quickly denied it.

Li Longji waved his hand and said: "I don't want to ask about the rights and wrongs between you and the national teacher, between the two of you, I still believe in you more, but the national teacher is the younger brother of the noble concubine, the uncle of the Tang Dynasty, and the person close to me, if he is dedicated to me alchemy, if I still have doubts, how can you let him work for me with peace of mind?" Where will I recruit those who are loyal to me in the future? ”

Gao Lishi's face was sad, and he saluted: "Your Majesty, the old slave is wrong. ”

Li Longji sighed and said: "You are right, it's just that you are in a hurry, and many things must be investigated first, just like this time, I don't know where the land outside the square is, how he took people there, I don't know, you tell me, let me feel your loyalty, as for saying that the national teacher wants to endanger the imperial court, it is an exaggeration...... Do you think I'm going to give him the right to fight? How ridiculous! ”

The emperor has a profound skill in controlling people, and after a round of rhetoric, Gao Lishi realized that Li Longji seemed to trust Yang Yun very much, but it was only because Yang Yun was a Taoist family and the younger brother of the noble concubine Yang Yuhuan, and the necessary vigilance was not relaxed at all.

As for military affairs, it is impossible for Li Longji to pin his hopes on Yang Yun, a Taoist priest, to indirectly relieves Gao Lishi.

"I understand, Chen Cheng is sincerely afraid, thank Your Majesty for your grace."

Colliers hurriedly knelt down and bowed.

Li Longji nodded again and said, "Okay, this matter has come to an end for the time being, the situation in the land outside the square still needs to be investigated in detail, and it is even more important to know why it is true...... In this way, you arrange a few people to keep an eye on it all the time, just to supervise the alchemy situation, in short, I don't want to see you discord...... I hope that you can treat the national teacher as well as you treat me, with sincerity. ”

……

……

Li Longji temporarily put aside his suspicions about Yang Yun, but also arranged for people to supervise a place that was not controlled by Wang Hua, of course, the main purpose was to prevent Yang Yun from making any rebellious moves in the land outside the party.

Li Longji and Gao Lishi didn't expect that Yang Yun had more than one camp in a foreign land, and one of the other two camps could also be colonized, and there were soldiers with certain training and combat experience.

When Gao Lishi sent people to Yang Yun's side, Yang Yun couldn't help but smile dumbly when he saw that it was Guangxuan and Gongsun Gan who had taken pictures before, it seemed that the two of them would be stationed in Camp No. 1 in the future.

"From today onwards, I will have to worry about the national teacher taking care of it." Guangxuan admired Yang Yun very much, and when he spoke, he saluted respectfully, completely in the posture of a junior.

Yang Yun smiled and nodded, and led them to the mansion with the magic circle, and soon came to the camp in South America through the space gate to settle them down temporarily.

After Yang Yun returned that day, he immediately went to see Yang Yuhuan.

"Shiro, you mean that you have to speed up what you planned before?" Seeing Yang Yun's cautious look, Yang Yuhuan couldn't help but wonder what made Yang Yun so preoccupied.

Yang Yun sighed: "Sister, there are some things I can't tell you clearly, in short, now that Your Majesty is beginning to doubt us, Gao Lishi has secretly begun to take action, and there are still forces in the DPRK and China that want to suppress us." ”

Yang Yun instilled a sense of crisis in Yang Yuhuan and asked Yang Yuhuan not to always be nostalgic for the comfortable and comfortable life in the palace.

Yang Yuhuan pouted and asked, "Isn't it up to you to arrange my sister's pregnancy?" Sister can't just have it if she wants to. ”

"My sister just needs to go back and prepare, and the arrangements will be advanced in the next few days, and my sister can follow my orders at any time." After Yang Yun finished speaking, he directly called Wu Yuan, and Wu Yuan was responsible for taking care of Yang Yuhuan in the palace in the future.

Yang Yuhuan was slightly dissatisfied: "What do you mean by letting her enter the palace with her sister?" ”

"When my sister is pregnant, she will definitely be watched by the imperial doctor and the attendant, and if she is suddenly disturbed, her sister may not be able to keep them out, and she needs someone to help her...... Sister, please rest assured, she will only appear with her sister when she is in need, and will not disturb her sister's normal life. ”

Yang Yun saw that Yang Yuhuan cherished her freedom in the palace and didn't want Wu Yuan to be by her side, so Yang Yun had to say that Wu Yuan was usually not in the palace.

In fact, it is to let Wu Yuan change the material form of the hiding place, and in an almost semi-invisible way, stay in the palace at any time to star, or let Yarou keep an eye on the situation in the palace at all times, and send Wu Yuan over to help Yang Yuhuan get out when needed.

"Okay then."

Yang Yuhuan's face was still a little dissatisfied, but for the sake of the so-called plan, he still obeyed.

Yang Yun gave Yang Yuhuan another lecture, and sent this sister back to the palace early.

After Yang Yuhuan left, Wu Yuan asked, "Then master, where did you find a child who pretended to be from my aunt?" ”

Wu Yuan saw through Yang Yun's plan, and naturally understood the most critical step, which was the child's problem.

But Yang Yun himself has no children, so it is either too late for Zhang Yu and Li Konger to be born, or there are too many entanglements of interests.

Yang Yun said: "Is it so difficult to find a baby?" ”

While speaking, Yang Yun glanced at Wu Yuan, Wu Yuan was excited, and immediately turned his head sideways, his body tensed, and he didn't dare to look at Yang Yun, for fear that Yang Yun would let her give birth to a child.

"Didn't you say that Miss Liu wanted to see me before? I have finally overcome a crisis in the past two days, and I want to meet her and plan for her future...... You're going to come with me today, and with you, I hope that when I don't have a good conversation with her, you can help me make peace. ”

Yang Yun decided to meet Liu Qingyuan.

In any case, he is "responsible" for Liu Qingyuan, even if it is just to help Liu Qingyuan deal with the aftermath and let him resolve the conflict with his family.
