"The subordinate Luan Da is ordered to meet you!" Outside the Qingliang Palace, Luan Da was dressed in a Lanqing Taoist robe with his hair tied in a bun, at first glance it was quite a bit of a fairy wind bone, and Xiao Huangmen Chang Rong saw that he was the emperor's most favored monk, and he hurriedly stepped forward and said: "Master, please come with the slave family." "Bow down and lead the way.

It was already the height of summer, and the heat wave was rolling, but the cool hall was extremely cool, Liu Che was cross-legged in the Ziyao tent, pondering and thinking about it like numbness. Huo Quai, who is a talented person, is gone, Mrs. Li, who is a country and a city, is gone, and Wei Qing, who is brilliant, is also gone... The departure of the people around him one by one made him feel more and more the coldness of the impermanence of life, even if he is the son of heaven, he is in charge of thousands of miles, and he has to bow down to the people of He, but he is still humble in the face of life and death.

In these years of panic, the jade dew on the Bailiang platform is sent by a special person every day, and the jade shavings are taken in order to prolong life, and they have also been instructed by the master to go to the East China Sea Penglai to find immortals, although they can't see it because of the lack of Taoism, but after all, after so many years of cultivation, why can't they get rid of birth, old age, sickness and death? Stroking the gray hair that came out of his temples, every time he thought about it, Liu Che had a sense of anxiety that could not wait.

"Your Majesty, Luan, a great knock!" Thinking about it carefully, Luan Da had already integrated into the hall with the little yellow gate, and when he saw Liu Che sitting alone in the Ziyao tent, he didn't dare to disturb and only bowed softly.

Liu Che opened his half-squinted eyes when he heard this, and said, "Pick up the curtain!" ”

The attendants of the palace responded and picked up the curtain and hung it on the purple gold hook, Liu Che's face sank like water, and he said coldly: "Luan Da, are you guilty?" ”

Luan Da was stunned for a moment, and then asked on the ground: "I don't know why Your Majesty said this?" ”

Liu Che glanced at Luan Da and said, "According to what you said, I take the Yulu Pill every day, why can't I still turn into an immortal?" Could it be that you are also like Li Shaoweng, and you can't deceive me? ”

Luan Da's face did not change, and he denied it at the moment: "Your Majesty, the elixir refined by your subordinates for Your Majesty is to prolong life, not immortality." ”

"It's not immortality, it's just longevity?" Liu Che was surprised, "Since you have studied under the Xian Sect, don't you know the method of immortality?" ”

Luan Da shook his head and sighed: "Your Majesty doesn't know, although the subordinate studied under the Xian Sect, the subordinate has a low status, and the family teacher is unwilling to teach the way of immortality..."

"Oh? Why didn't you say it earlier? Hearing this, Liu Che reprimanded, "If you don't teach the way of immortality because of your low status, then I will make you the general of Wuli, prepare a heavy gift, and use you as an envoy to enter Penglai to meet the commander, how about it?" ”

Luan Da was not happy when he heard this, but his face was embarrassed, and he hesitated: "Your Majesty, if it is just an increase in the number of officials and knights, it is naturally not difficult to make the status of the minister noble..."

"What do you mean by that?" Liu Che was puzzled after hearing this, and couldn't help asking.

"The family teacher is disgusted that the subordinate is not a relative of the Son of Heaven..."Luan Dayu said hesitantly, "Therefore, he is reluctant to teach the minister the way to become an immortal." ”

"That's the case..."Liu Che was even more puzzled when he heard this, "Why do you need to have the relatives of the Son of Heaven to teach the teacher the way of immortality?" ”

"Your Majesty, do you still remember the fact that Qin Mugong's daughter made jade into an immortal?" Luan Avenue.

"I've heard of it." Liu Che nodded, "Qin Mugong's daughter makes Yushan, chooses her son-in-law Xiao Shi, and both fly to the heavenly immortals." ”

"But what does Xiao Shi have to do with me?" Liu Che was still puzzled.

"Your Majesty, Xiao Shi is the lord of Taihua Mountain, and he can marry Langyu to become an immortal, not to mention the ministers?" Luan Da painted his voice and said, "If Your Majesty wants to obtain the law of immortality, and the subordinates are only foreign ministers, how can the family teacher pass on the way to become immortals?" ”

Liu Che nodded convincingly when he heard this, and when he thought of Xiao Shi making jade into an immortal and leaving, he was full of hope for the way of immortality, and thought for a moment to Luan Dao: "I will issue an edict to marry the eldest princess to you in a few days, and after getting married, you must choose a day to bring gifts to Penglai, and ask the master to teach the way of immortality!" ”

"Thank you, Your Majesty!" Luan couldn't help but be overjoyed, and said with gratitude: "The family teacher once told the minister that flying dansha will become gold, gold will become clothing, and the sun will ascend to heaven, and the minister will go to prepare!" ”

"Good!" Thinking that the day of immortality could be expected, Liu Che was also happy, and advised: "If you think about it carefully, there are still omissions, if this matter is successful, I will have another reward!" ”

"No!" Luan Da replied solemnly and retreated happily.

----

The night is low, the evening breeze is blowing, and the air is filled with the fragrance of osmanthus. The lights in the Jinhua Hall were bright, Liu Che was leaning on the desk to look at the bamboo slips, and the little yellow door crept in, bowed down and asked: "Your Majesty, I ask to see you outside the Queen's Palace!" ”

"Queen?" Liu Che thought for a moment, put down the bamboo slip casually, and said, "Xuan!" ”

Xiao Huangmen responded quickly, went out of the palace to announce the edict, and soon Wei Zifu entered the inner hall, and after the invitation, Liu Che asked: "Why did the queen come here at night, but there is something?" ”

Wei Zifu replied respectfully: "Your Majesty, the concubine heard that Your Majesty promised Jue'er to Fang Shi Luanda, I don't know if there is such a thing?" ”

"It's true!" Liu Che nodded and said, "I Nian Jue'er has been alone since the death of the Marquis of Pingyang, so I pointed out this marriage for her. Luan Da is a disciple of Penglai Xianmen, the magic is unfathomable, I have named him the general of Wuli, and in a few days he will make a clear decree to give marriage, and after he and Jue'er get married, he will send Penglai to the East China Sea on my behalf to seek the art of immortality for me. ”

"Your Majesty!" Wei Zifu knew that Liu Che believed in the art of immortality, but he never expected that he would give his daughter to the warlock, so he immediately said with tears: "Your Majesty should understand Jue'er's temperament, although Xiang'er is no longer here, but I want Jue'er to marry the alchemy alchemist, I am afraid that she will never be willing, and please be sympathetic!" ”

Hearing Wei Zifu say this, Liu Che couldn't help but regret a little in his heart, Liu Jue was his favorite daughter, and at that time he thought that she would inevitably be lonely if she was widowed, if she could achieve a good story like Xiao Shi and Yu with Luan Da, it would also be a good thing. It's just that I really haven't considered whether she is willing or not, and now that I think about it, my daughter has an arrogant temperament, and she may not be willing to marry Fangshi, but as the Ninth Five-Year Honor, the words of marriage have been said, and it is really a dilemma.

"This matter is not well thought out." After a long time, Liu Che said slowly, "But I have no reason to regret it!" Now that Luan Da is a general of Wuli, I will give him thousands of households in the food town and seal the Marquis of Letong, so that Jue'er will not be dishonored. ”

Seeing that Liu Che already regretted it, Wei Zifu's heart calmed down a little, and said: "Your Majesty's heart, the concubine thanked Jue'er!" It's just that General Wencheng's experience of Li Shaoweng's past is still in front of him, if Luan Da is also General Wencheng and the like, Your Majesty, how should our Jue'er deal with herself in the future? ”

Wei Zifu's words couldn't help but remind Liu Che of a past. At that time, Li Shaoweng, a Qi person, claimed to be good at magic, and once met the immortal An Qisheng in Penglai, and also summoned the soul of the deceased Mrs. Li, and was once a saint Rilong, and was named General Wencheng, but in the end he found that Li Shaoweng was just a person who deceived the world and stole his name, so in a fit of anger, Liu Che ordered to kill the famous General Wencheng. The mention of this past incident made Liu Che's hesitation in his heart a little more, and he couldn't help but hesitate about the marriage.

"Think about this matter, the queen doesn't have to worry about it, it's about Jue'er, and I will definitely handle it properly!" After hesitating for a long time, Liu Che slowly spit out this sentence, which made Wei Zifu feel a lot more relieved, and immediately agreed to the promise, and then said no more.

----

Soon after, Luan Da was summoned to the palace again, Liu Che asked about alchemy, Luan Da Mei Fei said: "Your Majesty, the ministers sacrifice to the stove king, refine the dansha with fire, and wait for the ministers to send Penglai in the name of the relatives of the Son of Heaven, and the family teacher will teach the method of flying dansha into gold, gold will become, and Your Majesty will prolong life if you obey it, and the Penglai immortal in the sea is visible, and you will not die if you see it with Zen!" ”

Liu Che was very moved when he heard these words, and couldn't help but get up and approach: "General Wuli, if your words are true, I will have a heavy reward!" ”

"Your Majesty, the ministers will not dare to bully the king!" Luan Da said earnestly, "If there is any untruth, the minister will let His Majesty fall!" ”

"Good! Good! Liu Che patted Luan Da on the shoulder with a smile on his face, paced a few steps forward, and then turned to look at Luan Da and said, "I planned to marry the eldest princess to you, but the queen did not allow this matter, and I always had to take care of the middle palace, so I thought of a compromise." ”

Liu Che walked back to the desk and sat down and said: "I will choose a lord in the clan and assign her to you, and after the wedding, I will order too often to choose an auspicious day, and use you as an envoy to go out of Penglai, and ask for the medicine of immortality for me." ”

"Your Majesty!" Luan Da had a difficult face, and said: "Although the daughter of the clan is expensive, she is not the same as the lady of the sky after all, please think twice!" ”

"It's okay!" Liu Che stopped and said, "The daughter of the clan has the same roots as my royal family, and you are married to the same as the Son of Heaven, why not?" Let the teacher add more courtesy, and this matter is decided! ”

Luan Da was happy in his heart, but his face was still embarrassed: "Your Majesty... Nachen... Do all in one's power! ”

----

Soon after this matter was decided, a thunder and lightning in the middle of the night, the Bailiang platform in the north of Chang'an City encountered thunder and lightning, this building built with cedar as a beam suddenly sparked everywhere, and it burned into a piece in a short time, and the night sky in the north of Chang'an City was illuminated by the raging fire as if it was day.

"Your Majesty! Your Majesty! The palace people on duty at night did not dare to delay, and hurriedly woke up the sleeping Liu Che, and said incoherently: "Your Majesty... There was a fire! Bailiang Terrace is on fire! ”

"What?" Liu Che was shocked when he heard this, hurriedly got up in his clothes, stood in the Feige Pavilion of Weiyang Palace and looked north, only to see the north of Chang'an City blazing into the sky, as bright as day, and he was immediately furious. Bailiangtai was built in the second year of Yuan Ding, and there were thunder and lightning strikes for more than ten years but it was safe and sound, why did it suddenly catch fire at this time, Liu Che's face was dark, and he said sharply: "The quick transmission is too often to come to see me!" ”

Not long after, Taichang Ling came in a hurry, Liu Che said: "Bailiangtai was suddenly struck by lightning tonight, and the flames soared into the sky, but does the heavens have anything to warn me?" ”

Taichang Ling said in a deep voice: "Your Majesty is a little safe, Bailiang Terrace is a wooden building, thunder and lightning ignite the fire and burn or accidental, wait for tomorrow the minister to set up an altar to divinate and ask for divination, and then give it to Your Majesty!" ”

"Good!" Liu Che's heart settled down a little when he heard this, and he was tired of the night, so he waved his hand after a long yawn, and said, "You step down, and report the hexagram to me tomorrow!" ”

"No!" Taichang Ling responded respectfully and slowly retreated.

----

As soon as Liu Che got up the next day, Xiao Huangmen, who was waiting, told Tai Chang Ling to ask to see him outside the palace, Liu Che rinsed his mouth and said, "Xuan!" ”

After a short time, Tai Chang Ling entered the hall with the small yellow door, and after saluting, Tai Chang Ling presented a piece of burned tortoise shell, and said, "Your Majesty, please look!" The minister took 'wood fire' as the word for burning, only to see the cracks on the nail surface passing through the words, showing the shape of several ravines. ”

"What does this mean?" Liu Che saw that Tai Chang Ling's face was gloomy, and the fox asked.

"This means... It's a dishonest act to say that the Son of Heaven has broken his promise..."Taichang Ling slowed down his words and swallowed.

"I, have you broken your promise?" Liu Che's eyes wandered, and suddenly he seemed to remember something, and his eyelashes slowly drooped as if he was saying to himself: "So... Heaven is warning me about the fire in Bailiangtai, is it a warning? ”

Too often Ling didn't dare to say much when he saw this, and he fell to the ground and was silent.

After a long time, Liu Che slowly raised his head and said in a deep voice: "Bailiang Terrace has been destroyed, I will choose the site to rebuild, named Shenmingtai, and pray to the gods with my sincerity, in order to seek the blessing of God!" ”

Tai Chang Ling prostrated himself and shouted: "Your Majesty Shengming! ”

----

Soon, Weiyang Palace issued two holy decrees, one was the marriage of Liu Jue, the eldest princess of the imperial gift, and Luan Da, the general of Wuli, and the other was to build Zhang Palace in the west of Chang'an City and set up a god platform.

After the holy decree was issued, Wei Zifu had no time to ask for the decree at all, so he could only be forced to accept the marriage, and Liu Jue was also heartbroken when he heard the decree, and Xiao Huangmen looked indifferent when he came to announce the decree, and never said a word.

No matter how he resisted, but the will of the Son of Heaven could not be violated, and soon Luan Da was worshiped as the general of Tiandao, named the Marquis of Letong, and married the eldest princess Liu Jue. Liu Che gave 10,000 gold as a dowry, and even renamed Liu Jue's Tang Muyi as Dangliyi, and Luan became famous all over the world for a while, which was unspeakably expensive.

----

"General Tiandao, now that you are my son-in-law, when do you plan to leave for Penglai?" Outside the window, the snow was falling, and in the greenhouse hall, Liu Che leaned on the fire screen, looked at Luan Da and asked slowly.

Luan Da smiled and got up and replied: "Your Majesty, the minister still needs His Majesty to personally bestow the 'Heavenly Dao General' jade seal on the night of the full moon, and the ceremony of the master is a gift, and then he can choose an auspicious day to set off." ”

"Oh?" Hearing this, Liu Che asked eagerly, "What kind of teacher's gift is it?" ”

Luan Da said unhurriedly: "Your Majesty must choose an envoy to wear a feather coat and stand on the roof of the white grass on the night of the full moon, and give the seal of the 'Heavenly General' to the ministers, and the ministers must also wear a feather coat and stand on the white grass to receive the seal and wear it, which is the envoy of the Son of Heaven and the gods, and this ceremony will be completed." ”

"I see!" Liu Che nodded quite seriously, looked at Luan Da and said meaningfully: "I value you so much, you will definitely not dishonor my life and find an immortal elixir for me!" ”

"Your Majesty, rest assured!" Luan Da put his hand on his forehead and swore on the ground: "His subordinates are deeply favored by the emperor, and they will never dare to live up to His Majesty's trust!" ”

"Good!" Liu Che smiled and said, "Then I'm waiting for your good news!" ”

----

After the ceremony of the guru was completed, Taibu asked for a hexagram, and on an auspicious day, Luan Da led hundreds of people to Penglai with heavy gifts. At the same time, Jianzhang Palace began to build, the newly built god platform is fifty zhang high, with the copper casting immortal hand holding the copper plate jade cup in front of the Jianzhang Palace, with the dew of the Chengyun table, its shape is floating like immortals.

Jianzhang Palace stands Fengque in the east, decorated with gold, more than 20 zhang high, the north then excavates the liquid pool, there are Penglai, abbot, Yingzhou three sacred mountains, in order to facilitate the exchange, there is a flying pavilion road across the city, after being completed, you can go directly to Jianzhang Palace from the Yang Palace.

Time passed day by day, everything was carried out in an orderly manner, and Liu Che waited with full expectations.
