When he got up early the next morning, Ma Yun went directly to drag Zhao Tong out of the bed, looked around, and said in a low voice: "Brother Zhao, how do you say we should get out?" ”

Zhao Tong was sleeping soundly, and he woke him up, and asked again, and said impatiently: "Brother Ma, I'll sleep again, and I'll talk about it later." ”

Ma Yun was still chattering and said, "Brother Zhao, if you sleep again, the sun will shine on your buttocks." ”

Zhao Tong glanced at him in a daze and said, "You don't have to worry, I have my own plan to get out." ”

He didn't say it, but when he said this, Ma Yun was even more itchy and said, "Brother Zhao, what are your clever plans?" ”

Zhao Tong said vaguely: "You just said that you want to continue to practice, just leave me here." In this way, the court will inevitably let you go. ”

Ma Yun also thought about this clever plan, but he always felt that it was not interesting, after all, he really regarded Zhao Tong as a friend. At this time, when Zhao Tong said this, Ma Yun couldn't help but hesitate: "Brother Zhao, is this too dangerous." It's hard to do this, and once you get it, you're in danger? ”

Later, Zhao Tong was already asleep over there.

Ma Yun paced around the courtyard, thinking for a long time, and finally felt that Zhao Tong could not be too risky. was about to discuss with Zhao Tong again, when Zhao Jingniang was holding a red lacquered wooden plate with a blue and white porcelain bowl on it, as well as two side dishes, and smiled at Ma Yun: "Childe, I made some porridge and side dishes, I don't know if it suits your taste?" ”

Zhao Jingniang seems to be more beautiful than yesterday, like a blooming rose, I don't know that the beauty is better than last night, and it adds a bit of charm to all beings. Ma Yun came back to his senses, hurriedly walked over, held the wooden plate for her with one hand, and said with a smile: "Then I just want to taste your craftsmanship." He took her by the hand and prepared to go back to the house.

Zhao Tong's voice suddenly came from there: "Jingxing shines in the boudoir, auspicious days and good days are together, treasures are happy to fish in water, and the full moon flowers are good for the sky." ”

Zhao Jingniang's face was full of flying clouds, turned around and entered the house and refused to come out again, Ma Yun turned around and scolded with a smile: "You, you're too gossipy, right?" ”

"Gossip?"

Ma Yun said angrily: "This gossip is not another gossip, it specifically refers to making trouble out of nothing, spreading gossip, adding oil and vinegar, lest the world will not be chaotic." ”

Zhao Tong laughed, Ma Yun looked at him and said, "This porridge is quite a lot, let's eat it together." I'll talk to you about something. ”

Zhao Tong was also not polite, and served a small bowl of porridge, accompanied by side dishes, and ate it with relish. Ma Yun looked helplessly and said, "Brother Zhao, it's too dangerous for you to stay in Bianjing." We are like rootless duckweed, we have no power, and sooner or later we will be deflated by luck. ”

Zhao Tong smiled: "Seeing that you have been hugging left and right recently, Lang is very affectionate, and you still think you don't know the danger?" After a pause, Zhao Tong said again: "We are now in three dangers in Bianjing. ”

Ma Yun was worried that he wouldn't be able to pretend to be a god, but he didn't think too much about it.

Zhao Tong looked at Ma Yun's puzzled expression and said: "After the emperor comes back, he will definitely test us again to see if we really have Taoism, this is a pass, but it is not sad." The first danger is that after Jing Yanguang's bad deeds, many people have set their sights on the position of privy envoy. At present, Sang Weihan is the best candidate, but unfortunately Feng Yu is too powerful, no one dares to recommend Sang Weihan, the people of the world are suffering like this, we can no longer let the next Jing Yanguang sit in this position, once we recommend Sang Weihan, we will naturally offend Feng Yu; Second, now that Buddhism is prosperous, Daxiangguo Temple is the leader of Buddhism in the Central Plains, and they have close contacts with the nobles and officials of the DPRK and China. If the emperor appreciates us, then those monks must be worried about their position. ”

Looking at Ma Yun stunned, Zhao Tong smiled and said, "Aren't you calling yourself a Taoist priest of Maoshan?" The emperor appreciates you, so isn't Taoism rising in the eyes of others? This third danger comes from the emperor, now that our army has repelled the Khitan, the emperor is so ambitious, the next target must be the secession of the feudal town, that is, Liu Zhiyuan and them, but we have close contacts with the son and daughter of Zhao Xin, Liu Zhiyuan's subordinate, which is taboo. ”

Listening to Zhao Tong's analysis, Ma Yun couldn't help nodding, looking at Zhao Tong to hear if he had a way to get out. For Ma Yun, there is another way now, which is to notify Liao Renyong and them to go out of the city together and escape back to Yuezhou, but this is too embarrassing, and it is completely inconsistent with Ma Yun's identity as the little prince of Chu.

Zhao Tong smiled and said, "Although it is very dangerous, it is not impossible. ”

Ma Yunxi said: "Brother Zhao, do you have any way?" ”

Zhao Tong said: "Now there are only two people who can be relied on, one is Feng Bao, and the other is Sang Weihan. ”

Ma Yunleng said: "Feng Bao is too honest, I always thought that we really had a way, if he asked him to help cheat, I'm afraid... ”

Zhao Tong said with a smile: "It is precisely because he is honest that when he speaks, the queen and the emperor will believe it." As for how to pass the emperor's level, it depends on Sang Weihan, he has also been the prime minister, and he should know how to do it. After all, only if the emperor believes in us, and we recommend him again, he can become a privy envoy. Since the emperor ascended the throne, someone must have recommended Sang Weihan, but why didn't the emperor use it? Because the emperor trusted Jing Yanguang and Feng Yu at that time. If the emperor doesn't trust us, it's useless for us to say anything. What we have to deal with now is to do a good job in the relationship with the Great Xiangguo Temple, and with the help of their influence, let the emperor let go of a master like us. ”

Ma Yun was stunned and said, "We still have to pretend to be a Taoist, pretend to be a priest!" ”

Zhao Tong shrugged helplessly, this is not something you came up with yourself, Maoshan Taoist, you can figure it out.

In the next two days, Ma Yun often went to Feng Bao's side to visit his apprentice and guide him in his practice. Zhao Tongze and Sang Qianmin went to Daxiangguo Temple several times to conduct discussions on Buddhism and Taoism.

On this day, the sunset had just set, the sky was full of colorful clouds, reflecting the red of the Ba'an shop, Ma Yun dragged the figure of the old elder, returned home, and was about to ask his family to close the door and lock it. Hearing behind him, someone scolded coquettishly: "Ma Yun, it doesn't matter what you say, my young lady has been waiting for you at home for two days." Why don't you go! ”

Ma Yun hurriedly turned around, but it was Qiao Niang. Ma Yun wondered in his heart, didn't Zhao Kuangyin make it clear last time? Does Zhao Ziying only need to live as a monogamous person? Am I not inadequate?

Ma Yun was about to ask clearly, when he saw a person walking from behind, dressed in white and snowy, but his face was obviously much haggard, and the man said lightly: "Qiao Niang, why did you come here, we, let's go back." As he spoke, he couldn't help but glance at Ma Yun.

It was Zhao Ziying.
