The aunt in He Qiong's mouth is Li Feizhen, the daughter of Emperor Shunzong, Princess Xunyang, and the sister of Emperor Xianzong, He Qiong's grandfather.

"That's it, I heard that there are all kinds of different flowers over there, colorful and beautiful!" Little Red Bean added next to him, as if he had been there.

Her slave status is now transferred to the Chang'an Xianyi view of Princess Yongjia, and she is not as afraid of Zhang Taijun as Thirteen Niang, and He Qiong has always taken her like a sister, and she is used to being very arrogant on weekdays, and she doesn't care much about the taboo that the master can't interject when he speaks.

Zhang Taijun didn't want to say anything, but he thought that if he was his slave, he would let her know the rules, but since he was a princess, it was inconvenient to punish and reprimand, so as not to hurt each other's feelings, but he still had to talk to his son later and let him take care of the church.

At this time, Ah Yun came in to report, saying that Wei Zhicheng had already come, and it was a dog hole drilled again, and he was meeting with Thirteen Niang in the firewood room at this time, and asked for instructions on how to deal with it below.

"Don't startle the snake yet, be vigilant, lest you be detected, and let him go if he wants to go." Zhang Taijun commanded.

"Grandmother, why don't you catch this man?" He Qiong asked.

"It's okay if he grabbed the jade box when he took it, but what is it if he catches it when he comes back now? Besides, as long as he bites to death and doesn't admit it, it is not easy to be convicted even if he is sent to the official, after all, these beast control techniques, spells and so on in the Daomen, it is inconvenient for outsiders to know the internal situation. ”

At this time, He Deng rushed back, and as soon as he heard this, he asked, "Mother, what happened?" ”

When Guo Hong saw this beautiful man again, he was really a little envious of his appearance, no wonder he was born in a poor family but was able to win the favor of the princess.

The aesthetics of the Tang Dynasty were different from those of later generations, the status of artists in later generations was unprecedentedly improved, women could hold up half the sky, they liked small fresh meat, and in the Tang Dynasty where the official position, Xiao Xianrou could only be used as a prostitute, and the society appreciated the dignified middle-aged uncle, if it was a Taoist fairy style, it would be more popular.

The He family is a standard poor landlord, although they have a lot of influence in Hengshan, but they can't be compared with rising families like Wei, Pei, Liu, and Xue "Guanzhong Four Surnames", let alone five surnames and seven wangs, so Zhang Taijun still cares about the princess very much in his heart.

Ah Yun was allowed to tell He Deng the ins and outs of the matter.

The housekeeper He Zhong came in with Thirteen Niang holding the jade box, Thirteen Niang knelt on the ground, and Ah Yun stepped forward to take it and open it and put it on the low table.

Zhang Taijun glanced at the jade box a few times, and then handed it to his son.

He Deng sat on the round stool on the left, got up and took it, his nose twitched, and he immediately smelled a trace of non-existent smell in the medicinal bait he had concocted, which was difficult for ordinary people to detect.

He frowned, stroked his long hair and said: "This medicine bait has been made of hands and feet, the taste in it is wrong, I am afraid that it will lead to Bai Jiao at that time, but I don't know if it is really Qi Yuanyi's instructions." ”

He stared at Thirteen Niang, who was kneeling on the ground, and asked, "You answer honestly, how did you know that Qi Yuanyi was instructed by Qi Yuanyi in this matter?" ”

Thirteen Niang paused and said, "It was Wei Zhicheng who told the slave family." ”

"In other words, it is all Wei Zhicheng's words, and there is no other corroboration." He Deng thought for a while, turned his head and said to Zhang Taijun: "Mother, this matter can only be covered by soldiers, I will take the things back and change the medicine inside, it may take some time, if it is not good, go to the Wang family and ask her to come forward to stop this gambling fight." ”

Zhang Taijun nodded and said: "If you want to say that this Wang family doesn't know about this, I don't believe it, when they come back in the evening, you can beat it well, marry your husband, you can't turn your elbow outward, and take our family's things to give it to her brother." ”

He Deng nodded and said, "My son just can't figure out how the Wang family and the Tian family have been dealing with each other, and how my uncle got on the line with Master Qi's nephew." ”

After saying that, he shook his head, took He Qiong and the three of them to get up and say goodbye, and walked towards the West Cross Courtyard where he lived with the wooden box.

Out of the old lady's courtyard gate, He Deng asked He Qiong to go back to his small building in the east courtyard first, and he wanted to go to the study of the west courtyard to study.

"Senior sister, I want to see with my uncle how to change it."

A twelve-year-old still has some privileges, at least he can say whatever he wants, and no one will blame him for being ignorant.

He Qiong was also a little curious, so she said to her father: "My daughter also wants to learn pharmacology from her father." ”

Although it was someone else who used fraud, after all, what caused this incident to be true, He Deng felt a little sorry for his little daughter, so he agreed to their request.

He led the three of them to his alchemy, put the jade box on the table, and poured out the medicine inside and put it aside.

The jade box was for his daughter and Guo Hong to watch at will, and He Deng himself walked to a row of cabinets and opened a drawer, which contained sun-dried medicinal herbs.

Prepare a pair of medicines again, put them in the medicine pot, add water, bring them to the fire and boil over high heat, and then simmer slowly.

He sat down and fanned his fan, and while thinking, he casually explained to He Qiong and Guo Hong.

"The Book of Rites: The Order of the Month" has clouds: In the month of autumn, cut down the dragon and take the dragon. The lantern on the night of Zhongyuan is an annual trial of our Hengshan faction, and all disciples over the age of fifteen and under the age of eighteen can participate.

"The location of the trial is in the 'Zhuling Cave Heaven', which is the forbidden place of my sect, where there are the mausoleums of the ancestors of the past dynasties, and the patriarch Tian Xuying was also in retreat in the cave back then, creating the Five Elements Fist.

"There is a dark river in the cave, which is said to lead all the way to Hengyang! It was originally the place where a Taoist priest surnamed Dong of the Xuanzong Dynasty made alchemy, but later Patriarch Sima found out about it, so he made a bet with him and won half of the dark river.

"And half of this side is where the essence of the entire dark river is located, among which there are giant turtles, dragons, and it is said that there are white dragons hidden in the depths!"

Guo Hong listened to it with relish, but He Qiong was absent-minded, she had heard it several times, and she said listlessly on the side:

"The giant turtle is a big turtle, it will bite, and it will not let go of its mouth if it bites, and the dragon is called the pig dragon, and the skin on its body is like armor, and it was hunted and used to make drums in ancient times."

Guo Hong nodded in understanding.

"Senior uncle, we went to Zigai Cave a few days ago, and Senior Sister said that it was Zhuling Cave, and said that it was a dead end, I don't know what it has to do with the forbidden land of Zhuling Cave?"

"The two were originally connected, but later Daoist Dong lost half of the Zhuling Cave, and in a fit of anger, he put down the Broken Dragon Stone that was originally set at the entrance of the inner cave, and destroyed the mechanism, so that the ancestor could not see it. I didn't want to later Sima Patriarch to determine the terrain, choose a place to build a stone room, dig a passage down, and enter the inner cave, then Dong Daoist had nothing to say, so he had to give up the feng shui treasure of this half hole. ”

He Qiong yawned, and also said on the side: "Below the spring in Zhuling Cave is the entrance of the Broken Dragon Stone, which has been completely sealed by sediment for a long time. ”

He Deng continued: "This trial is to let the young disciples start to tame the beast, this beast art is my Hengshan secret method, it is said to be passed down from the ancient Yellow Emperor, and it was obtained by the Yellow Emperor after defeating Chi You. ”

"Uncle Shi, I heard that Mr. Rover Xuanyuan is famous for his royal beasts."

"Yes, the Xuanyuan family was originally from my Hengshan sect, and later left Luofu Mountain because of your master. He is a descendant of the Yellow Emperor, and some of his ability to press the bottom of the box is much more subtle than the one passed down in the door. ”

Guo Hong became interested and asked, "Then when can I learn?" ”
