Chapter Fifty-Seven: Graceful and Graceful

Shi Zun quietly glanced at Liu Guifei from time to time while walking, this Liu Guifei was graceful, with willow eyebrows and big eyes, although Shi Zun had many women, but when he saw this Liu Guifei for the first time, he couldn't help but have a trace of restlessness in his heart.

Liu Guifei walked next to Shi Zun, how could she not know that Shi Zun was secretly looking at her, but in front of everyone, it was not easy to expose it directly, so she pretended not to know.

"The last time I saw Niangniang, it was when the king returned to Yecheng the year before last, and I had a relationship with Niangniang in my father's Hongguang Pavilion, and I will see you again today, Niangniang is still gorgeous and beautiful." Shi Zun said on the side.

Liu Guifei was naturally very happy when she heard Shi Zun praise like this, the women of the harem, especially Liu Guifei, who is favored by her beauty, who doesn't want all the men in the world to fall under her pomegranate skirt? Liu Guifei pretended to be modest and said: "His Royal Highness King Qing has won the award, if this palace is really beautiful, how can Your Majesty not come to Huilan Palace often?" ”

After Liu Guifei finished speaking, she glanced at Shi Zun intentionally or unintentionally, Shi Zun naturally heard the voice of Liu Guifei's words, and was secretly happy in her heart, but did not speak.

"It's really clean to look at, and it would be nice if I could stay here for a few more days. I don't know why this Taoist view is called the Qiansheng view? Isn't there any moral to it? Liu Guifei suddenly asked.

"This king doesn't know much about these things of Taoism, so it's better to ask the people of this Taoist temple."

Liu Guifei nodded silently, and Shi Zun asked his subordinates to recruit a young Taoist priest, who was of medium stature, somewhat thin, with slightly white hair and a goatee.

The Taoist priest walked up to Shi Zun and Liu Guifei, saluted unhurriedly, and said: "Poor Taoist cadres view Xuanxuan, I don't know what Niangniang and His Royal Highness have to advise?" ”

"Xuanxuan? Hehe! Is this your name or the road number? Is it the mystery that is playing tricks? Shi Zun couldn't help but laugh when he heard the name of the Xuanxu Dao Chief.

Liu Guifei couldn't help but cover her mouth and smile, but this Xuanxuan Taoist priest was as calm as water, not angry, not annoyed or angry, and still said in a calm tone: "Xuanzhi, void." The void, Xuanye. ”

Liu Guifei and Shi Zun listened to the clouds, obviously not understanding the meaning of the Xuanxu Taoist, Shi Zun asked: "Okay, okay, whether you are Xuan or Xu, can you explain what it means to name this Taoist temple Qiansheng Temple?" ”

The Xuanxu Taoist priest replied: "Dry man, heaven is also the first hexagram of the sixty-four hexagrams. The six lines in this hexagram are all yang, and there is no yin. Hexagram is also a vigorous and vigorous exercise. There is Tao in the Tai, the Tao gives birth to one, one life to two, two to three, and three to all things. Everything rises and falls, but it grows and grows......"

"Stop, stop! Can you put it simply? Shi Zun interrupted the words of the Xuanxu Daoist.

The Xuanxu Taoist priest was about to speak, and Liu Guifei said: "Okay, what this Taoist chief said, this palace can't understand either." I heard that this temple incense is flourishing because the gods enshrined here are very effective, is there really such a thing? ”

The Xuanxu Taoist priest smiled slightly: "Heavenly law cycles, good and evil are rewarded." Quiet and inactive, and finally good as water. Whether it works or not is not in the gods, but in the hearts of the seekers. ”

Liu Guifei looked at Xuanxu with an ignorant expression, and stopped talking, what the Taoist priest in front of her said was something she didn't understand at all, and if she continued to ask, she would only appear ignorant.

Shi Zun asked impatiently, "Is the wing room ready?" Send the concubine to rest first. ”

The Xuanxu Taoist nodded slightly and replied: "It's ready, His Royal Highness King Qing and the noble concubine Niangniang, please come with the poor road." ”

Xuanxu said, turning sideways and making a "please" action. Liu Guifei nodded slightly, and said to Shi Zun: "His Royal Highness King Qing, please!" ”

"Concubine Niangniang, please!" Shi Zun let Liu Guifei walk in front, and the corners of her mouth showed an imperceptible treacherous smile.

At this time, not far from Shi Zun and Liu Guifei, there was a pair of eyes quietly staring at them.

In King Ning's mansion, Shi Jian was standing under the pavilion, and Gao Shangzhi walked behind Shi Jian, saluted and said, "Your Highness." ”

Shi Jian turned around and asked, "Have you already sent out?" ”

Gao Shangzhi nodded silently: "It was sent out yesterday." ”

"I hope to understand this matter smoothly, otherwise this king can only doubt whether the group of dead soldiers you trained can do it."

"Now there is an unexpected situation." Gao Shangzhi looked at Shi Jian.

When Shi Jian heard this, his heart tightened, and he asked, "What's the situation?" ”

"King Qing suddenly appeared on Wolong Mountain, and it is said that he will also fast and bathe in the Qiansheng Temple of Wolong Mountain and pray for His Majesty."

When Shi Jian heard the news, he couldn't help frowning, and asked, "Lao Jiu has always disbelieved in gods and ghosts, how could he suddenly appear in Qianshengguan?" ”

Gao Shangzhi was silent for a while, and replied faintly: "I'm afraid it was premeditated." ”

"Lord Gao's words are really a word to wake up the dreamer, this king already knows what Lao Jiu's plan is." Shi Jian woke up like a dream, looked at Shi Jian, and then walked down the steps, and said to Gao Shangzhi who was standing at the bottom of the steps: "I'm afraid I have to bother Lord Gao to go there himself." ”

Gao Shangzhi smiled slightly: "It's okay, let His Highness send you." ”

"Lao Jiu's hand has reached the harem, if the king is not bad, Lao Jiu and Liu Huan appeared in the Taoist temple at the same time, presumably he deliberately arranged it, maybe there will be a good show, in order to win over Liu Huan's slut, and then let Liu Huan blow the pillow wind to the old thing, and establish Lao Jiu as the reserve."

"Your Highness is wise, but if that's the case, will the assassination continue?" Gao Shangzhi asked.

Shi Jian also pondered it repeatedly in his heart, he knew in his heart that the decision he made the day before yesterday was indeed a little impulsive, although Concubine Zheng's humiliation made him angry, but now that Qingwang Shi Zun is also in Qianshengguan, the probability of successful assassination has greatly decreased.

After repeated considerations, Shi Jian made a difficult decision, so he said to Gao Shangzhi: "The assassination matter, put it aside for the time being, you quickly go to Qianshengguan to see the situation, if necessary, let the second child also understand this matter." ”

Seeing that Shi Jian promised not to stab Liu Huan, he secretly breathed a sigh of relief in his heart and said: "Your Highness, rest assured, the old minister knows what to do for the rest." ”

Shi Jian nodded, and the noble said goodbye and left.

Gao Shangzhi left King Ning's mansion and hurriedly got into the carriage.

"My lord, shall we go home?" The servant asked.

"If you don't go back, let's go to the mansion of Lord Zhang, the waiter of the Ministry of Rites." The noble commanded his subordinates.

"Huh!"

Just after the New Year's Festival, the dynasty has not yet begun, and there is no need for the civil and military officials to have an early dynasty, Zhang Bao is naturally idle every day, and has nothing else to do except give advice to Shi Shi.

"My lord, Prime Minister Gao is here." A subordinate ran in and said to Zhang Bao.

Zhang Bao was stunned for a moment, still holding a book in his hand, and asked, "Who did you say was visiting?" ”

"The noble prime minister." The servant replied.

Zhang Bao put down the book and said to himself: "This old thing, never came to my house, why did he suddenly come over today?" ”

Zhang Bao thought for a moment, then raised his head and asked, "Where is Prime Minister Gao now?" ”

"Tea in the lobby."

"I know, you go and inform Prime Minister Gao, just say I'll be there soon."

"Yes!" The man immediately exited the room.

Zhang Bao stood up and walked out as well.

"Oh, Prime Minister Gao! At the moment, it is the New Year's Festival, and when I suddenly visit, the lower officials have lost their welcome, forgive their sins! Before Zhang Bao entered the front hall, he saluted and shouted at the noble arch in the room.

Gao Shangzhi was sitting on a chair and tasting tea, and when he heard Zhang Bao's voice, he immediately raised his head, put down the tea cup in his hand, stood up and greeted him, and said with a smile: "Lord Zhang, the old man passed by your mansion and came in to ask for a cup of tea. Hahaha. ”

"It's rare for the Prime Minister to come to the Humble House, and I don't know if the tea served to you is to your taste." Zhang Bao tentatively looked at Gao Shangzhi's reaction.

"Hahaha! The old man has always heard that Mr. Zhang, you are a good tea person, I just tasted a few sips, and sure enough, the tea is fragrant! Gao Shangzhi leaned into Zhang Bao's ear and whispered: "Actually, the old man came to drink tea with you today." ”

After Gao Shangzhi finished speaking, he smiled and patted Zhang Leopard's shoulder.

Zhang Bao can also be regarded as a mixed court for many years, and no one in the Chinese military officials of the dynasty can be looked at by him, but this noble one, he has never been able to figure it out. However, because his official position is lower than that of the noble, he is polite every time he meets. Today, Gao Shangzhi suddenly came to him to drink tea, which really made him wonder, whether Gao Shangzhi was really a fool as he usually looked, or whether the city government was so deep that even he Zhang Bao couldn't figure it out, and Zhang Bao really didn't know the bottom in his heart.

"Could it be that the Prime Minister is also a good tea person?" Zhang Bao asked with a smile in cooperation with Gao Shangzhi.

"The old man has lived to this age, what can he do better than tasting tea?" Gao Shangzhi stroked his beard, pretending to be mysterious and said to Zhang Bao: "Today, the old man not only came to you to drink tea, but also has a secret to tell you!" ”

When Zhang Bao heard this, he was a little puzzled, what secrets could Gao Guizhi share with himself inexplicably? He pretended to be calm and asked, "My lord?" What's the secret? ”

"Do you know what is so particular about making tea?"

Zhang Bao was stunned by the noble question, and muttered in his heart: Why do you talk about tea again? What the hell is the old thing trying to say?

Seeing that Zhang Bao was stunned, he said, "Lord Zhang? You wouldn't be unaware, would you? ”

Zhang Bao came back to his senses and hurriedly said: "No, no, no, this subordinate still knows, boiling tea is nothing more than water and utensils, and there are also tea leaves." ”

"Not bad, not bad! Do you know what is the best boiled tea? Gao Shangzhi continued to ask.

"If you only talk about the water used to make tea, it is naturally the best mountain stream spring water."

"Wonderful! The old man came today to tell you that there is a place near Yecheng, where the spring water is the best, and it is used to make tea, and the fragrance of tea is overflowing. Are you interested in going with the old man to see it? ”

After listening to Gao Guizhi's words, Zhang Bao instantly felt that this Gao Guizhi was simply sick in the brain, and ran over mysteriously, just to tell him such a painless thing.
