Zhang Ruohao felt a wave of anger in his heart, how could he not know that Cui Yuan borrowed a knife to kill people, when the Hui people were still a hundred miles away from Kaiyang County, the imperial court received a flying pigeon from Kaiyang Assassin Shi Weikuan, and the cabinet held an emergency meeting that night to decide to send reinforcements, but Cui Qinggong arrived three days late, and Cui Yuan's sinister intentions were self-evident.

But in front of Zhang Huan, he didn't want to show it, he changed the topic and smiled: "I said why did Eighteen Lang arrive today, it turned out to be Longyou, what interesting things can you encounter in Longyou?" Tell me about it! ”

"There are no interesting things, but there are a few thrilling things, but now that I think about it, I can only call it thrilling." As he spoke, Zhang Huan explained in detail how they saved Mrs. Wei, and later saved Wei Qing.

Zhang Ruohao stroked his palms and laughed: "In this way, the Wei family really has to be grateful to you, not bad!" Not bad! There is courage and strategy, but what about later? How did you escape the pursuit of the scouts? ”

Zhang Huan smiled and continued: "We set up a suspicious formation and let the Hui scouts chase eastward, but in fact we fled westward, and at dawn we fled to a mountain range, and now I know that it is called Ma'anling. ”

"Saddle Ridge?" Zhang Ruohao seemed to have heard this name, he raised his head and thought for a moment, his face gradually became serious, he looked at Zhang Huan and said, "Go on!" ”

"Then in order to avoid the search of the Hui scouts, we went up to Ma'anling, and when we went down the mountain, we accidentally found the Hui army logistics grain camp hidden in the mountain bay, and then I dived into the grain camp and burned them with a fire."

Speaking of this, Zhang Huan remembered the rumors in the wine shop again, 'General Cui Xiao single-handedly entered the grain and grass of the Hui people and burned 200,000 stone of military rations', he smiled faintly and said: "Later, we went to the Tang military camp to report that it was Cui Qinggong who received us!" ”

"And so it was!" Zhang Ruohao couldn't help but sneer, "That kid of the Cui family has a set of evil, but I have never heard that he can do a serious thing, I talked to Pei Xiangguo about this in the morning, we all thought that it must not be so simple, it turned out that he actually took the credit of my Zhang family." ”

As soon as he raised his head, his eyes stared at Zhang Huan fiercely, "Being taken advantage of!" Eighteen Lang wants me to get justice for you? ”

"No!" Zhang Huan picked up the teacup, took a sip, and said with a smile: "I don't think this is necessarily a bad thing, what does the head of the family think?" ”

Zhang Ruohao was stunned, he immediately reacted, smiled knowingly, he pondered for a moment, and then asked Zhang Huan again: "Can you tell Cui Qinggong that you are a child of the Zhang family?" ”

Zhang Huan smiled faintly, "He didn't ask our names at all!" ”

Zhang Huan suddenly thought of Liu Yuanqing, he hesitated and said: "Cui Qinggong sent Liu Yuanqing to escort us into Beijing, I can see that he wants to kill people and kill people, but after Liu Yuanqing heard that I was a disciple of the Zhang family, he let us go, but this matter makes me puzzled." ”

"Liu Yuanqing?" Zhang Ruohao was a little surprised, Liu Yuanqing he knew, one of the three fierce generals under Cui Qinggong, he was Cui Qinggong's henchman, and he was willing to let Zhang Huan go, which made him incomprehensible, Zhang Ruohao took two steps, and he suddenly remembered something, "Is it because of him!" ”

Zhang Ruohao sneered, it seemed that there were still many people who wanted to deal with Cui Yuan, he sat down and patted the back of Zhang Huan's hand gently, a sly smile flashed in his eyes, "You're right, since Cui Xiong wants to take the risk, let him take the risk, let him climb as high as possible, I won't sit idly by in this matter, you can prepare for the imperial examination with peace of mind." ”

．．．．．．．

This year's climate is abnormal, the end of December has reached the middle of winter, Chang'an City should be covered in silver, snow-covered season, but these days are sunny and shining, making people warm, as if in mid-spring, a few wax plums in the yard are also deceived, competing to bloom delicate petals.

Zhang Huan and others chartered a single courtyard, very quiet, each person has their own room, you can read quietly, early in the morning, there was a sound of Lin Zhilang reading in the yard, he had fallen off the list once last year, this year's pressure is particularly heavy, if his wife can give birth to Lin'er, and he is in the gold list of high school, then the Lin family will be double happy, so he has been in Chang'an for six or seven days, he has been studying behind closed doors every day, and even his younger brother Lin Zhibing, who is serving in the military in Chang'an, did not go to visit.

Today's weather is warm, and it is an auspicious day to go out, Zhao Yan decided to take Lin Qiaoqiao to Ci'en Temple to repay his mother's wishes, the little couple packed their things early in the morning, and as soon as they went out, they met Zhang Huan returning from outside, Zhao Yan immediately pulled him aside and laughed in a low voice: "To be honest, did you not return last night, where did you fool around?" ”

Zhang Huan gave him a punch casually, and scolded with a smile: "Do you think I am Zheng Qingming?" When I wake up, you're still asleep! ”

"Just kidding you!"

Zhao Yan pointed to the carriage lane that he had just hired: "Qiaoqiao and I are going to Ci'en Temple to make a vow, do you want to go together when we are sick?" ”

Zhang Huan thought that he had nothing to do, he nodded happily, "It's okay, there are relics of Master Xuanzang in Ci'en Temple, let's go and have a look!" ”

At this time, Zheng Qingming was sneakily walking along the root of the wall, as soon as he looked up and saw Zhang Huan and Zhao Yanzheng standing at the door, he turned around and left in fright, but was caught by Zhang Huan at a glance, stepped forward and grabbed his shoulder and smiled: "Didn't you say that you were tired all the way?" Why did you wake up so early? ”

Zheng Qingming's face turned red, he couldn't speak for a long time, Zhang Huan didn't say anything anymore, he smiled and said: "We are about to go to the Temple of Mercy and Grace to offer incense, you can go too!" "Anyway, regardless of whether Zheng Qingming wants to or not, forcibly drag him to the Temple of Mercy and Grace together.

Ci'en Temple is located in the Zhaoguo Fang of Wannian County, Chang'an, was built in the ninth year of Emperor Kaihuang of Sui, the original name is no leakage temple, Tang Zhenguan 22 years, the crown prince Li Zhi for his mother Empress Wende posthumously recommended the blessing and expanded to the Great Ci'en Temple, and later Xuanzang Fengyi moved from Hongfu Temple to this temple for the throne and presided over the translation of the scriptures, this temple became the ancestral court of the Buddhist Dharma.

Although the hour is still early, but the vicinity of the Temple of Mercy and Grace has been quite lively, most of them are to pay homage to the "wild goose pagoda inscription" of the scholars, this is the unique honor of the new science and technology scholars, that is, the new science and technology scholars in the tower inscribed their own name, genealogy, to flow for a hundred generations, Zheng Qingming looked at it blankly, he heard the name of the "wild goose pagoda inscription" for a long time, unconsciously, he poured in with the scholars.

Zhang Huan didn't stop him, he brought him here just to let him retract, and seeing the Big Wild Goose Pagoda could also stimulate him to make progress, he and Zhao Yan looked at each other and smiled, and continued to walk towards the Temple of Mercy and Grace.

Compared with the bustle of the Big Wild Goose Pagoda, the Temple of Mercy and Grace is very quiet, only a gorgeous carriage is parked at the gate, and more than a dozen family members are waiting listlessly at the door.

The three of them walked into the courtyard, and there was a soothing and pleasant chanting sound from afar, which made people feel peaceful, at this time, a monk hurriedly stepped forward and saluted: "Three pilgrims are here to worship the Buddha?" ”

Zhao Yan also clasped his palms and replied: "Two years ago, my mother made a wish in front of the Buddha in Ci'en Temple, and today my wife and I have come to repay my mother's vow, can Master take us to the Daxiong Treasure Hall?" ”

The monk hesitated, he glanced back at the hall, and said with some embarrassment: "Now there are distinguished guests in the hall offering incense, the three of you will go to the guest room with me and wait for a while, how about preparing some homework first?" ”

Lin Qiaoqiao nodded in agreement, but Zhang Huan next to him smiled and said, "Go ahead!" I walked around. ”

Ci'en Temple is known as the first temple in Chang'an, it is said that the monks are the most Yonghui years, up to 3,000 people, only the cooking of the extra-large iron pot has five mouths, but from the late Kaiyuan period, Tang Ming Emperor Li Longji Xing Taoism to weaken the power of Buddhism, Ci'en Temple is gradually going downhill, even so, the scale of Ci'en Temple is large, there are nearly 1,000 monks, layer upon layer of Buddhist temples, walk a few circles, it makes people unable to distinguish between the southeast and the northwest.

Zhang Huan was no exception, he got lost after admiring the statue of Wei Tuo, turned around a few times, and actually arrived at the Guanyin Temple.

The courtyard was very quiet, only a small novice was sweeping the fallen leaves on the ground, and when he saw Zhang Huan coming in, he hurriedly clasped his palms and saluted, Zhang Huan nodded to him, and stepped into the high barrier.

The statue of Guanyin in the fish basket of the Temple of Mercy and Grace is very famous, it is completely carved with a piece of white jade, the master holds the bottle in one hand, and holds the fish blue in the other hand, the treasure is solemn and lifelike, so that people can't help but have the urge to worship at first sight.

Two middle-aged peasant women kneeling in front of the statue of Guanyin were praying sincerely, and Zhang Huan also knelt down quietly, clasped his palms together and silently recited: "Great compassion Guanyin Bodhisattva, please protect my mother safe and sound in Taiyuan, please protect the disciple with the title of this year's imperial examination gold list!" ”

While praying, suddenly a man's shout came from inside the courtyard, "No! Miss Cui wants to put on the incense and ask the people inside to come out for Ben Gongzi immediately! ”

Immediately, a soft voice came, "Young Master Chu, people come first and then come, so what's the matter if we wait for a while?" ”
