In the third year of Song Dazhong's auspicious fu, a baby's cry resounded in the inner courtyard of the imperial city of Bianjing.

Thousands of miles away in Dongyue Taishan, in a Taoist temple, there was also the cry of a baby.

Since then, the fate of these two babies has been closely linked.

However, the one in Bianjing City was overjoyed, while the one in the Taoist Temple was deeply thoughtful.

For Song Zhenzong Zhao Heng, all his sons died early before, so he had to make a new choice, just because it was a blessing to let the palace maid Li conceive the dragon seed and give birth to the prince It is not a glorious thing. Externally, this prince named Zhao Benefit and the only surviving prince was given to the favored Liu family to raise.

The opportunity for the fate of the two babies to be connected began when Song Zhenzong and Zhao Hengdong sealed Mount Tai. Since the alliance of the Yuanyuan, Zhenzong has been committed to the matter of enshrinement, in the first year of Jingde five years to Dazhong Xiangfu, that year, Song Zhenzong Dongfeng Taishan happened to meet this inconspicuous small Taoist temple, and the Taoist face to face at the moment, he was impressed by the Taoist immortal wind bones, and called the Taoist to talk at night with candles, history did not record this unknown secret, no one knew what they talked about. But I only know that at that time, the true sect had begun to believe in immortals very much, and it had reached the realm of madness, and the year name Dazhong Xiangfu was like this.

Since then, Song Zhenzong Zhao Heng began to gradually abolish the government, perhaps, becoming an immortal has really become the primary task in the time left in his life.

"Did you really tell Your Majesty?" A woman said to the Taoist in a trembling voice.

The Dao Master nodded in acquiescence.

"Do you really want to give up Xuan'er's life? You still don't know the methods of the officials? ”

Dao didn't speak for a long time, stared at the stars in the sky, and finally said silently: "If it was the previous Majesty, we would definitely not be able to survive, but now Your Majesty believes in the Tao and keeps our origin a secret. ”

"I never believe in the words of the official family, since ancient times, the emperor's family has been ruthless, maybe Your Majesty is just soft-hearted."

"What do you think this is?" The Taoist took out an object.

"Danshu Iron Coupon!" The woman screamed.

"Your Majesty, actually, you really gave us the Danshu Iron Coupon, does it mean that you recognize our identity?"

The Taoist chief was silent for a long time, and then said slowly: "Your Majesty means that you will no longer pursue the past, and it is also fate that Your Majesty and I can recognize each other here." ”

"Anyway, our Xuan'er is also a descendant of the official family......"

"Shut up, woe comes from the mouth, and there is no need to mention this matter in the future."

Zhao Xuan, a legendary figure who has no record in history, was born.

This kid is distinctly different.

When he was three years old, he read all the Daozang and memorized a rolling melon.

Looking at his smart and clever son, Zhao Daochang smiled from ear to ear, no fame, fame, or status as an emperor is as important as this happy time in front of him.

It's just that in the future, will his son live in seclusion here like himself and become a Taoist priest?

Zhao Daochang looked at Zhao Xuan, who was like a prodigy, and began to be a little in a trance.

"In the past few days, it seems that a few officials who claim to be from the capital have come, and they often walk around the Taoist temple, I am afraid." The woman, Lin, said worriedly.

"Don't worry, we have already identified ourselves to Your Majesty, and we have Danshu iron coupons in hand, so they don't dare to mess around."

"Hope so, hope so ......"

"Daochang Zhao, Your Majesty has a will." One of the black-faced officials revealed his identity and read out the emperor's will.

What should have come is still coming.

The meaning of the holy decree is that Zhao Xuan's wisdom has been heard of by the saint, and he is very happy, and wants to bring him to the palace.

"How does Your Majesty know Xuan'er's ability to read and never forget?" Lin asked anxiously.

"Needless to say, it must be that from that day on, this temple has been covered with His Majesty's eyeliner."

"After all, Your Majesty is still suspicious of us."

"Alas, let's run away again, we can't send Xuan'er to the palace like this, maybe, maybe we won't see it again in this life." Lin burst into tears.

The Taoist chief was silent, what Lin said was right, this one was sent to the palace, whether it was life or death, whether it was a blessing or a curse, I didn't know.

"Where can I escape? The ends of the earth are all imperial lands. Decades have passed since that incident, the world is at peace, and Your Majesty will finally understand what loyalty is. Now His Majesty's mind is on asking for immortals, which may be an opportunity for Xuan'er to fate. ”

In the fifth year of Song Dazhong's auspicious fu, Zhao Xuan, who was like a prodigy, entered the palace and came to Bianjing.

All this is the arrangement of the true sect, listening to the eyeliner he arranged in the Taoist temple, this child is quite precocious, and he has a lot of research on the Taoist treasure.

Zhenzong was happy and worried after hearing this, happy that this child fell in love with his own preferences, and worried that such a smart child would become a troublesome person?

Let's take him into the palace to raise him first, as long as he is around, even if he is a wolf, he will be raised as a sheep.

This is the first time that Zhao Xuan has walked into Bianjing City from Taoism.

Tokyo's Kaifeng Prefecture, a metropolis in the Northern Song Dynasty and even the world at that time, was full of attraction and curiosity for a child. On the bustling streets, hawkers can be seen everywhere, but surprises are surprises, and the precocious prodigy is already mentally prepared for the upcoming court life.

Is this kid a little muna?

This was Zhenzong's first impression when he saw Zhao Xuan, and Zhao Xuan, who was a little dumbfounded, was not pleasing in front of Zhenzong.

Maybe it was because I suddenly left my father.

But he really memorized the classics of Daozang, Zhenzong deliberately pointed out the allusions in Daozang, and Zhao Xuan actually annotated them one-on-one with Zhenzong.

Only Zhao Xuan, who talked about Daozang, seemed to be radiant and full of wisdom.

Zhao Xuan, this name is the same as our ancestor, do you want to avoid it? But this was the ancestor of the immortals in the Taizong Dynasty, for the true sect at this time, this child was too destined for him.

What happened at the end of this year made him dispel his scruples about Zhao Xuan, because Zhenzong really dreamed of his ancestor Zhao Xuanlang.

At dawn, Zhenzong told the prime minister, the privy councillors, and the great eunuchs about this, and when it came to happiness, Zhenzong wanted to have a rejoicing for the whole people, and the officials' salaries were raised, and the people's agricultural taxes were greatly reduced, and even the prisoners in the prison were rewarded.

What makes Zhenzong even more happy to enjoy the way of immortals is that in the sixth year of Dazhong Xiangfu, Yuqing Zhaoying Palace was completed.

If the incident continues like this, Zhao Xuan is likely to grow into Daoist Zhao, the Taoist of a certain Taoist temple in the imperial city.

But the arrangement of fate is always so wonderful, when it is rare to be sober after Zhenzong asks for immortals, looking at Zhao Xuan, who is becoming more and more pleasing to the eye, he thinks that it is time to arrange a new place for this child.

"Xuan'er, you've been in the palace for some time, it's time to meet your eldest brother."

"Big brother?" Zhao Xuan had some doubts in his heart, he had been in the palace for some time, and he hadn't seen any other prince except His Majesty on weekdays, this big brother must be the eldest prince. ”

But no matter what, Zhenzong introduced him to recognize his eldest brother and already treated him as his own family.

In the Yanqing Palace, Zhao Xuan met Zhao for the first time, the future crown prince. Zhao Yingying, who is the same age, does not have the look that the royal family should have, but he is polite, and he is polite when he sees Zhao Xuan.

This is a batch of princes carved out of a template, Zhao Xuan thought to himself.

When the prince seems to be not as enviable as the outside world says.
