Chapter 237: Mess
Early in the morning, before the sky opened, Yang Yun took the girl out of the house and went straight to the big empty view.
The more you go to the Great Sky Temple, the more people there are, it seems that the traders of the entire North City have moved to the streets around the Great Sky View to do business, and you can see the majestic statue of Lao Tzu from a distance, and there are still two streets away from the gate of the Great Sky Temple, and it is already a sea of people, and it is very difficult to take a step.
"It's so hilarious."
Yang Yuhuan was very happy, this was the first time she had run away from home in the real sense, if it weren't for Yang Yun, she never thought that she would come early in the morning to enjoy the excitement of the Taoist event.
Yang Yun reminded: "Hand in hand together, don't get separated, if you really get lost, wait outside the Dakong Temple, or find an official errand, just say that it is a disciple of Yang Xiaotianshi, and someone will send you home." ”
These girls around Yang Yun, except for Yang Yuhuan, who is a native of Luoyang, including Wu Yuan, are all outsiders, and it is difficult to communicate with the local natives of Luoyang with a Shu accent.
If you let a few little Loli go home by themselves, it may not be easy to inquire about the way, so finding an official is the best way.
Yi Dan is in charge of the queen of the palace, and her task is to take care of these junior sisters and prevent them from getting separated along the way, and she herself has to keep up with the team.
"Master, it doesn't seem to be easy to get past the Great Void View." Along the way, there were crowds of people, and when they arrived at the main gate of the Great Sky Temple, they could already see that there were officers and soldiers to maintain order, and they saw that there was no one in the Gate of the Great Sky View from a distance.
"Isn't there a Taoist priest going in? Let's go quickly. An Lun urged beside him.
Yang Yun saw that the officers and soldiers of the Imperial Forest set up barricades outside the Great Sky Temple, and several streets leading to the gate were blocked from a distance, obviously preparing for the attendance of the royal family, but as far as the eye could see, he did not see Princess Xianyi and Li Mao and others, so he did not know the rules of passage for the time being, so he could only try to get close first.
Finally squeezed into the open space outside the Great Sky Temple, the officers and soldiers were waiting for it, and when they got closer, Yang Yun found that it was actually easy for Taoist priests to pass in the past.
Anyone wearing a robe was allowed to enter, but anyone wearing ordinary clothes was kept out.
Yang Yunxin said: "The ordinary people of this era are in awe of ghosts and gods, and they will not buy a Taoist priest in order to join in the fun, so it is a good way for the court to distinguish people in the Taoist sect by whether they are wearing Taoist robes." ”
"What do you guys do?"
Yang Yun approached with a few girls, but was stopped.
Probably because Yang Yun's line was too young, young boys and girls, not like the common Taoist family with an old-fashioned temperament, and a sanctimonious manner, so he was stopped by officers and soldiers for questioning.
Yang Yun smiled and said, "Can't you see that we are also cultivators?" I should be invited to attend the Taoist conference today, and please make it convenient. ”
"You're also cultivators?"
The officers and soldiers looked at each other, obviously not quite convinced, but there was a steady stream of Taoist priests coming behind, blocked by Yang Yun's line, and the officers and soldiers really couldn't inquire in detail, so they put away their soldiers and made way of a road, so Yang Yun took a few girls into the open area in front of the Dakong Guan Gate and went straight to the main gate.
……
……
Inside the Great Sky View, it is another lively scene.
The Taoist priests came very early, it is estimated that the sky is not yet dawn, and most of the Taoist priests have already come, which is similar to grabbing seats, and they don't want to be left behind.
In particular, many foreign Taoist priests want to find opportunities to become famous, and then become officials and even royal guests, and this grand occasion naturally does not want to be preempted.
"With so many people, where should we go?"
Yang Yuhuan saw the lively scene, and was a little at a loss for a while.
There are many Taoist priests in front of them, the Taoist robes are colorful, and the tools they bring have their own merits, and the huge venue has become the stage for their performances, and everyone wants to stand up in front of people......
There were a large number of officers and soldiers present to maintain law and order, but they were all scattered around, allowing the Taoist family to play on their own.
There was no ring, the only viewing platform was for the emperor, but Yang Yun knew that Li Longji would not show up that day, and with the complexity of today's participants, if Li Longji came, the person in charge of handling it would have to be condemned.
Without rigorous screening, what if there were assassins among the Taoist priests?
Wu Yuan frowned: "It's too chaotic here." ”
Yang Yun pointed to the corner in front of him and said, "Let's find a place and rest first." ”
In front of the Daoist statue of the Great Empty View is a large square, covering a vast area, there are a lot of plane trees planted near the wall, and there are a lot of stools placed under the trees, which are originally reserved for Taoist priests to rest, but now these Taoist priests either set up stalls in the venue to perform, or climb relationships to make Taoist friends from all over the world, and there are also people who can't look at each other and are ready to compete on the spot, but only the position against the wall is only the officers and soldiers standing alone, and there is basically no one sitting on the stool.
In this way, Yang Yun and his party can sit down and watch the scene.
Yang Yuhuan didn't want to sit down, and said: "Shiro, why should we get closer to the ancestor statue, there are seniors over there, what is the matter with us waiting here in a daze?" ”
Yang Yun knew that her sister couldn't wait to "overwhelm the crowd", but the key was that there was no famous Taoist who was appointed by the imperial court or convinced all the participating Taoists to be the hosts in the Great Void Temple, and there were thousands of Taoist priests attending the meeting, all of whom looked free and casual, where was there a chance for Yang Yuhuan to perform?
"Your Majesty didn't come, and there were no high-ranking officials attending, we will cause unnecessary trouble if we go to the front, so it's better to stay here and check the details of these participants first."
Yang Yun said it beautifully, but in fact, he was too lazy to move, and chose to watch the fire from the other side.
Anyway, there is no unified scheduling here, unlike the festival in Shudi, where Qingyang Palace will be the organizer to maintain order and lead the process of the festival, with Yang Yun's fame, let's keep a low profile first, so as not to be targeted, a group of people came to challenge, Yang Yun knew that he couldn't deal with so many people.
……
……
As time went on, the sun rose into the sky, and more and more Taoist priests gathered in the Great Void Temple.
When the Taoist priest came, he had no sense of direction and jumped around, not knowing what to do.
Yang Yuhuan sat up and sat up, extremely anxious, for fear of missing the opportunity to become famous, while Yang Yun closed his eyes and recuperated, and a few girls around him wanted to go around to see the excitement, but they were also stopped by Yang Yun's words.
At this moment, several people who were dressed in Taoist robes but were not tall and were also very young walked over, and heard a familiar voice from a distance: "After looking for a long time, I can be regarded as finding you!" How are you hiding here? ”
It was not someone else, it was Princess Xianyi, who was dressed in a Taoist robe, and she came with a female official and a guard who were also wearing Taoist robes.
Yang Yun got up to greet him.
After the ceremony, Yang Yun pointed to Princess Xianyi's Taoist costume and asked, "The princess is noble, why is this?" ”
Princess Xianyi's eyes fell on Yang Yuhuan, and said, "I'm here to watch the excitement, I can't come in my usual clothes, right?" Isn't that much more convenient? Now I'm also a member of the Daomen...... Miss Yang, it's been a long time. ”
Yang Yuhuan also greeted Princess Xianyi.
Princess Xianyi said again: "Now the people in the Daomen, but everyone who has a certain reputation, have been invited to the viewing platform, and even the Lingshi has brought people over, but you are here, this is to draw a clear line with the Shimen?" ”
Yang Yun smiled slightly: "Princess Yan smiled, I just want to hide from Qingjing here." ”
"Oh."
Princess Xianyi nodded with relief, "It's a pity that you don't go over, there is a good show over there, a group of Taoist priests from Jiannan Dao are respected by Qingyang Palace and Heavenly Master Dao respectively, and they seem to be not small, and they are putting on a posture to fight, and the master wants to mediate in the middle...... A lot of people were watching. ”
Yang Yun had actually thought that the contradiction between Heavenly Master Dao and Qingyang Palace would spread to this festival, and he inquired privately that after Zhang Gao appeared two days ago, Fa Ling did not really fight with Zhang Gao in front of the people of Luoyang, probably because he was afraid of Zhang Gao's strength.
But now that it has reached the Great Void View, it involves the dispute between Taoist orthodoxy and the interests of Shu, and it is impossible for either Qingyang Palace or Heavenly Master Dao to give up.
Yang Yun thought to himself: "The rivalry between Heavenly Master Dao and Qingyang Palace is not all because of Qingyang Palace, Li Qingguan and others of Heavenly Master Dao also jumped out to stir up trouble before, and there is no difference between good and evil at all. ”
Princess Xianyi saw that Yang Yun's attitude was indifferent, and she didn't care about the results of the battle over there, and asked curiously: "As the representative of the Daoist Sect of Shu, why didn't Daoist Yang go to persuade peace?" ”
Yang Yun smiled: "With a family teacher, what is the point of my past?" If the princess wants to see the excitement, she doesn't have to care, she can go first. ”
Princess Xianyi sat down on the stool next to her with a big grin, and said, "If I want to see the excitement, why do I come to you?" In fact, there is nothing to see, in the end, this is a big empty view, they don't dare to fight, whoever causes trouble will definitely not make them feel good. ”
Her words can be regarded as setting the tone for the court's attitude towards the festival that day.
You Taoist priests are invited to come, and you are given enough freedom first, whether it is to demonstrate your skills or solve personal grievances, but if anyone causes trouble, for example, the fighting method once again collapses the newly repaired Taoist statue, just wait to be disposed of.
"Daoist Yang, sit down and talk."
Seeing that Yang Yun was still standing, Princess Xianyi smiled and sent out an invitation.
Yang Yun sat down on the stool next to him.
Princess Xianyi said with a smile: "I heard that the Lingshi was in the Shu Di Fa Conference, and his skills were overwhelming, and everyone worshiped him, and he was justifiably leading the Shu Daomen, but why did no one take the Lingshi in the eyes of the Eastern Capital?" ”
Yang Yun said: "We are only cultivating in the mountains and wilderness, how can we compare with the Taoist sect that has been famous for a long time?" ”
"Oh, it turns out that this sect is also divided into families and scattered cultivators, please forgive me for understanding it so, then Daoist Yang and your master...... Even if it's a casual practice? ”
Princess Xianyi seems to be interested in this topic.
Yang Yun didn't know how to explain to Princess Xianyi, nodded and said, "That's right." ”
Princess Xianyi suddenly asked again: "Then does Daoist Yang have any plans to start a sect?" Don't rush to say no, don't say those scenes, my idea is, if you want to, I'm ...... And my eighteenth brother, as well as my mother, will help you become the founder of the mountain, and the mountain gate you set up is also recognized by the imperial court, and you will be able to rule the world's Daomen...... I don't know what you think? ”
