Chapter 263: Li Mansion "Chance Encounter"
Qingyang Palace obviously didn't want to take the initiative to take responsibility, and was afraid that the Heavenly Master would be in the limelight and timid.
After Fa Ling found that he couldn't bargain with Yang Yun, he brushed his sleeves away.
Wang Ji said with a little regret: "In fact, what Daoist Fa Ling said is not completely unreasonable, such a good opportunity was given to the Heavenly Master Dao, if the Heavenly Master Dao really wins the battle with the Tubo National Teacher, it will be of great help to the reputation of the Heavenly Master Dao." ”
Songmei also got up when she heard this, and shouted: "My good apprentice has always looked forward and backward, seeking everything in all aspects, the God-given opportunity is in front of you, Luo Daoyou is going to give you the opportunity, you don't want to go, you can let the teacher go, you can respond to it, isn't it just an uncivilized monk?" Why be afraid? ”
"Then dare to ask this Daoist, you are so capable, why do you have to let people respond from the side, can't you just go up yourself?" Yang Yun asked coldly.
"As a teacher, you don't have the ability, but you won't be afraid." Songmei said, "Now let the people of the Heavenly Master Dao go to the battle, which is to give up the hands to others." ”
The more incapable he is, the more he will shout, and now that he is out of the gate of Qingfeng Guan, the tight spell on Songmei's head has been broken, and he has nothing to fear when he speaks.
Wang Ji didn't stand on Yang Yun's side this time, and he himself also wanted to be in the limelight, looking at Yang Yun with a plea gaze and said, "Why don't we go and talk to the people of Heavenly Master Dao and let you go, senior brother?" ”
Yang Yun said angrily: "I'm still obsessed, since the opportunity is so good, why don't others fight for it?" ”
Songmei said in a slightly mocking tone: "That's because they don't have the ability to fight." ”
"Others have no ability, Luo Gongyuan is the existence of Datang almost like a national teacher, he can gain a foothold in front of His Majesty without any ability? Why didn't he go himself, but give such a good thing to others? Don't he dare to fight? Yang Yun said disdainfully.
Wang Ji heard some signs and said in surprise: "Senior brother means ...... Luo Tianshi learned some inside information, and knew that the Tubo National Teacher was very capable, and he was afraid of being embarrassed in front of the public, so he gave the opportunity to others? ”
Yang Yun said: "I haven't really seen the ability of that Benbo Taibao, if he is really powerful, he rushes up, let alone Liwei, and even the reputation he has accumulated before will be ruined." ”
Wang Ji slapped his head, and the sound of "snap" startled Songmei next to him, and blurted out: "It's still senior brother who is far-sighted, Luo Gong is far away, and we are not on it, let the people of the Heavenly Master Dao go up to test the truth, even if he wins, the senior brother can secretly help the Tubo national teacher and let him lose, so that the senior brother will win again." ”
Yang Yun pouted his hands: "Since it involves the prestige of the Tang Dynasty, I won't do that thing to fulfill the Tubo people, in short, I'd rather watch from the sidelines than take the initiative to undertake such an uncertain thing, and you don't use that evil brain." ”
……
……
Yang Yun did not go with Wang Ji and Songmei, but took Wu Yuan home.
In the face of the Tubo National Teacher, Yang Yun is thoughtful, whether the Tubo National Teacher has the ability or not, it has nothing to do with him, what he wants to manage now is not his own fame, but to assist Yang Yuhuan, who is disguised as the Nine Heavens Xuannu, to achieve the good story of the immortals.
You can't just think about the next game of chess while you're still in the layout, even if you can win Benpo Taibao, what's the point for him?
He has been out of the limelight in Luoyang, and winning is just the icing on the cake, but if something goes wrong, then the game of Yang Yuhuan that he laid out in advance will fall into a dead end, so he would rather let others earn fame.
It doesn't matter if it's a pit, or it's a perfect one.
Aren't you very high? I will fulfill you and let you be the savior of the Tang Dynasty Taoism, whether you win or lose depends on your own performance.
In the afternoon of the same day, the court released a rumor, and let the Heavenly Master Taoist teach Zhang Gao to come forward to fight with the Tubo National Teacher Benbo Taibao, Zhang Gao will be the first and last formation, and there will be no second place to fight after the victory is divided, which also declares that Zhang Gao will fight on behalf of the Tang Taoist, which is a great honor.
Li Longji will not personally come to the Great Sky Temple to watch the fighting method, but the imperial court appointed civil officials as representatives, that is, Li Linfu, the newly promoted Huangmen squire who has been on the affairs of the Zhang Luo Festival, and Li Mao, the king of Shou, will also attend with Li Linfu.
In the afternoon of the same day, Yang Yun received an invitation here, which was an invitation letter from Li Linfu asking him to come over the house.
“…… Master, Li Xilang will come to Dakong Temple tomorrow, is there any other purpose for him to invite you to meet? Do you want the master to secretly help the people of the Heavenly Master Dao to ensure that the Tang Dao Gate wins? ”
Wu Yuan tirelessly analyzed in front of Yang Yun, no matter how he looked at it, it seemed like he was testing Yang Yun, and wanted Yang Yun to give a positive answer.
Yang Yun said with a smile: "Li Xilang is not a member of the Taoist Sect, he doesn't know much about fighting methods, there are so many people who don't believe in Taoism, how can he easily believe that there are advanced spells?" ”
"Since he doesn't believe in Taoism, why should he invite a master to come over?" Wu Yuan couldn't figure it out.
Yang Yun did not explain much.
According to Yang Yun's speculation, Li Linfu is suspicious of the Taoist generals, and now he is specifically responsible for the operation of the method, and regards this as a political bargaining chip for continued promotion, everything serves his career, please Yang Yun is only for the sake of the face of the Nine Heavens Xuannu is his sister, Li Linfu can see that the emperor yearns for the Nine Heavens Xuannu, how can he not make some precautionary arrangements for the line of the Nine Heavens Xuannu in advance?
Li Linfu has been able to gain a foothold in the center of the Tang Dynasty for more than ten years, relying on his extraordinary scheming and flattering ability, if Li Linfu does not show favor to him in advance, it will make Yang Yun feel strange.
"Who knows what Li Xilang's purpose is? Wouldn't it be clear if you went? You don't have to follow this time, I'll be back soon. ”
Yang Yun didn't plan to let Wu Yuan go with him, so as to avoid the news being known to the Liangdu Daomen Alliance.
……
……
Li Linfu's mansion was deserted, he had just entered the political core, and he was still cautious at this time, which was in stark contrast to the scene of the mansions of Zhang Jiuling and other court officials on weekdays.
Yang Yun saw the low-key lintel, and probably guessed one or two in his heart: "Li Linfu is attacking Zhang Jiuling now, mainly using Zhang Jiuling's formation of a party as a breakthrough, and he himself is cautious in this regard, showing the emperor his style of being loyal and loyal without forming gangs." ”
In front of the door of the house, Yang Yun went up and knocked on the door, the door "squeaked" opened, and a knowing guest respectfully behind the door, without the style of a high-ranking official, respectfully checked the invitation handed by Yang Yun, and politely asked Yang Yun to go inside.
Yang Yun followed Zhike to the atrium, saw the simple layout of the courtyard, and thought: "I don't know which Qing official's mansion this is, this is the pattern of being an official, Li Linfu has his own set, not to mention whether it is different from the outside, this posture alone will make people feel that he is decent, and this simple style will definitely reach the ears of the emperor." ”
"Yang Tianshi, my master has not come back yet, but he will disperse after a while, you go to the teahouse first and wait for a while, and the contemptible person will go to summon tea for you."
Zhike took Yang Yun into a small hall and respectfully retreated.
Yang Yun looked all over the small hall, it was antique, the furnishings were old and simple, there were no celebrity calligraphy and paintings on the wall, and such a simple layout did not match the identity of Li Linfu's top officials in the court.
"Even the hall in Liu Hengzheng's house is much more gorgeous than this, it seems that Li Linfu is very good at superficial things." Yang Yun thought in his heart, and was about to sit down, when suddenly there was a sound of footsteps at the door.
The footsteps were light, a little hurried, Yang Yun looked sideways, it was not Li Linfu who came back, but Li Kong'er, the young lady of the Li family who had met him many times.
At this time, Li Kong'er's robe had already been changed, and her skirt was on, so that her graceful figure was undoubtedly revealed, because it was a regular dress worn in the inner house, compared to the Li Konger she had seen at the banquet held by Princess Xianyi that day, Li Konger's eyes exuded brilliance, and she had the extraordinary temperament of a noble lady of a family.
"You still dare to come?"
When Li Kong'er saw Yang Yun, her first sentence was very polite.
In this way, Yang Yun had to figure out whether the invitation was from Li Linfu or Li Konger.
After Li Kong'er stepped into the threshold, her eyes looked at Yang Yun, and she asked with a little annoyance: "When you see Miss Ben, don't you have any courtesy?" ”
Yang Yun arched his hand with a smile and said, "I've seen Miss Li." ”
"Hmph, you think you can get a foothold in the Tang Dynasty with a little trick?" Li Kong'er's tone was not good, so she walked to the table and sat down.
Yang Yun was not polite, and sat down opposite her, Li Kong'er seemed to be dissatisfied with Yang Yun sitting with her without invitation, but she did not break out, frowned slightly, and said, "Don't think that when you get here, you can continue to deceive Miss Ben...... And the father. ”
Yang Yun asked, "Miss Li, I don't know if Ling Zun has an invitation today, or if Miss sent a letter to invite?" ”
"You mean, Miss Ben invited you in the name of her father? Don't see if you're qualified, you're just an ordinary little Taoist......"
Li Kong'er originally wanted to belittle Yang Yun with words, but thinking that Yang Yun was indeed invited by Li Linfu, doesn't saying this mean admitting that Yang Yun is still "qualified"?
"It's my father."
Li Kong'er glanced to the side and said.
Yang Yun smiled and said: "Li Xilang invited, it seems that it is also a kind of fate to be able to meet Miss Li here. ”
Li Kong'er's brows furrowed even tighter when she heard this, and she thought to herself: "This is obviously my home, why did he say it as if he had met me by chance?" Didn't he know that I was here to trouble him? ”
Yang Yun said: "Miss Li, the princess feasted farewell that day, it's been a while, how are you doing?" ”
"Huh?"
Li Kong'er was stunned, what's the matter, this kid didn't recognize me in Dakongguan?
Thinking that Yang Yun used means to make her body catch fire in the Great Sky Temple, so that she took the initiative to take off her robe and make a fool of herself in front of others, she became angry in her heart.
Li Kong'er said angrily: "Don't pretend to be confused, haven't you seen Miss Ben recently?" ”
Yang Yun pretended to be puzzled, frowned as if he was reminiscing, looking for the answer in his mind, and then shook his head and sighed: "I don't know what Miss Li meant?" Didn't you and I have a chance to meet on the street? I can't remember this memory. ”
This made Li Konger not know how to carry out his revenge plan.
The other party said that he couldn't remember when he had seen it, so did he take the initiative to expose the scandal? In case the other party really can't remember, doesn't saying it mean that he doesn't confess?
