Chapter 211: The emperor is also a human being

After reading the letter, Grandmother Dugu looked at Li Jiancheng with a smile and said:

"Since the letter asks you to go to Luoyang, then go, but be careful, bring two more guards ......, don't think about anything else, Your Majesty is also a human being, as long as you are respectful, after seeing Your Majesty, come back early, don't rush too much on the road, don't be tired......"

Li Jiancheng finished Dugu's grandmother's advice with a smile.

At the same time, he said secretly:

"It's no wonder that my mother Dou Hui has been fighting for so many years, and she has never had the upper hand in fighting with Dugu's grandmother, and she still looks at things from a different angle."

On second thought, it's no wonder!

Dou Hui's life is smooth, compared with Dugu's grandmother's experience, it is simply a trivial matter, and it is not worth mentioning.

Leaving Dugu's grandmother's Shou'an Hall, Dou Hui and Li Jiancheng returned to Feihong Courtyard, which was to help Li Jiancheng pack up.

When Li Jiancheng was in his previous life, not to mention his footprints all over China, he was not far away.

Except that the carriage at this time did not absorb shock, the road conditions were not good, and after it was very bumpy, it was not frightened at all.

The next day, Li Jiancheng took Li Xi and four guards and left for Luoyang.

Along the way, Li Jiancheng was not in a hurry.

On that day, when he arrived at Hongnong County, Li Jiancheng thought about it and said to Li Xi: "Wait until you get off the car and go to Sanmenxia to have a look." ”

"Sanmenxia?" Li Xi asked suspiciously.

Li Jiancheng explained: "It is a section of the Yellow River, the reason why it is so called, according to legend, when Dayu ruled the water, he chiseled the dragon gate, opened the pillar, and formed the "human gate", "ghost gate" and "god gate" three canyons in the middle reaches of the Yellow River, so it is called Sanmenxia. ”

This kind of place with legendary stories, Li Xi is also excited, but he is not familiar with this road.

originally thought that if you followed the official road, you could get to Luoyang, but I didn't expect Li Jiancheng to suddenly change his route: "Langjun, I don't know the way, I have to inquire later." ”

Among the six people in the group, there was no one who knew the road, so they had to continue along the official road.

Until he saw a simple tea shop, Li Xi stopped and went to inquire about the situation.

After a while, Li Xi came back with two old men, an old man and a young man.

The old Taoist has a long beard and white hair, and he looks like he is a little older, and the little Taoist looks like he is in his twenties.

Although the two of them were dressed frugally, they were not simple and simple, and their clothes were very clean, but the feet on their feet were seriously worn.

At first glance, it is a person who often walks on the road, but still takes good care of himself.

Li Jiancheng saw that a stranger was coming, so he got out of the car: "In Xia Longxi, Li Jiancheng, the two Taoist chiefs are polite." ”

"Fusheng Immeasurable Heavenly Venerable!" The old Taoist returned the salute: "Under the pure son." He pointed to the young Taoist priest behind him and said, "This is Xuan Chengzi, the apprentice of the poor Dao." ”

Li Xi said at this time: "The Pure Daoist and his apprentice are also going to Sanmenxia......" Speaking of this, he looked at Li Jiancheng and paused.

After all, it was a stranger, and Li Xi was not good at making decisions on behalf of Li Jiancheng, so he invited the two Taoist masters to accompany him.

Li Jiancheng said with a smile: "If the two Taoist leaders don't dislike it, they will get in the car and go together." It was impossible for Li Xi to bring back two people who didn't know the road, so Li Jiancheng directly invited.

Along the way, Li Jiancheng read books and practiced to pass the time.

Now that he has met the two Taoist chiefs, he has come to the forefront, and Li Jiancheng speculates that these two Taoist masters are people who travel freely.

Qingjingzi didn't see anything at all, and said to the little apprentice behind him, "Then let's get in the car." ”

After sitting in the car, because he wanted to show the way, the old Taoist simply sat directly at the wheel for convenience.

There is a little Taoist priest Xuan Chengzi in the carriage.

Li Jiancheng smiled and beckoned to make tea, although he didn't drink this tea himself, but it was a good way to pull in the relationship between people:

"Daoist Xuancheng, I don't know what taboos the Lingshi has with you?"

Xuan Chengzi shook his head and said, "No." ”

Li Jiancheng raised his eyebrows, he didn't live much, but he was sitting in a carriage, if he didn't say something, he would look embarrassed, and said with a smile:

"Where are you monks?! But it's right here in Hongnong County?! ”

Although this young Taoist priest named Xuan Chengzi did not take the initiative to speak, he answered Li Jiancheng's question quickly:

"No, we are practicing in the Jade Qingguan of Julu."

Hearing the word Julu, Li Jiancheng contacted Xuancheng again, and a famous person in history flashed in his mind, and he couldn't help but open his big phoenix eyes in surprise, and his strange appearance suddenly flashed, and it did not arouse Xuan Chengzi's attention.

Li Jiancheng immediately asked tentatively: "The common surname of Xuancheng Daoist is Wei?!" ”

Xuan Chengzi was stunned for a moment, and blurted out: "How do you know?!" ”

"I'm going to say that I can figure it out and the chief is credible?" Li Jiancheng quipped, he can now confirm that this person is the "human mirror" Wei Zheng.

Taoist priests know the art of Qihuang, and naturally know how to calculate the name or something, it is pure nonsense, Xuan Chengzi said: "Master Li, don't be joking, poor Dao knows a little about Zhou Yi gossip, I really don't know that I can calculate the name." ”

Li Jiancheng raised his eyebrows and said, "In that case, what does the Dao Chief think?!" ”

"I guess I heard about the poor road somewhere." Xuan Chengzi hesitated for a moment and said.

Li Jiancheng laughed and said: "That's right, I heard that although his parents died when he was young and his family was poor, he loved to read very much, and he was able to integrate all kinds of books and learning. I just saw it at first sight, but I didn't expect to meet it here today, it's really a joy in life! ”

Even Wei Zheng, hearing Li Jiancheng's words of wearing a high hat, the lines on his face softened.

After all, at this time, Wei Zheng was only a poor Taoist priest in his twenties, not a later important minister, so naturally he would not have any doubts about whether this person named Li Jiancheng had a plan against him.

Wei Zheng didn't talk much with Li Jiancheng before, it was because of the antagonism of classes, the arrogance in his heart, and he didn't want to do things that were flattering.

But that's no longer the case.

Li Jiancheng delivered an olive branch, and Wei Zheng talked with Li Jiancheng.

After this indifference, Wei Zheng found that no matter what he said, the other party could talk to him, and many points of view made Wei Zheng feel that he had benefited a lot.

Wei Zheng thought that he was rich and rich, but now that he met Li Jiancheng, he knew that there were people outside the world.

The two chatted speculatively, and Wei Zheng asked Li Jiancheng for advice with relief.

Li Jiancheng's eyes flashed, and he felt that this was a good opportunity, so he pointed out Wei Zheng without any reservations.

In the evening, when everyone found a Taoist temple to rest, Wei Zhengdu Li Jiancheng was already very respectful.

After eating, Wei Zheng came to chat with Li Jiancheng again, and Li Jiancheng asked: "Daoist Xuancheng, is it so difficult to let his talent and learning be wasted like this?!" (To be continued)
