Chapter 204: Entering Beijing (3)

Li Wenxuan, who slept in Lin Ruoxi's room, got up in the morning to see Xia Yan after a night's rest. He personally wrote the greeting post on the first day, and it was not difficult to find out Xia Yan's residence from the mouth of the shopkeeper, after all, the other party's name was like thunder. Li Wenxuan, who was neatly dressed, brushed his teeth, cleaned his face, and after breakfast, he led Zhao Hanshi out of the door of the inn.

In the era when there is a mouth under the nose and asking for directions and not asking for money, and in the era when you can get the other party's enthusiasm without asking for caution, the master and servant did not take the wrong road, and came directly to the mansion where Xia Yan lived in Jingshi. The Xia family's mansion, which does not have a magnificent momentum, still maintains the owner's incorruptible style.

Zhao Han, who was holding a greeting post in his hand, ran to the gate first and saw the doorman on duty, and delivered it directly. He didn't take out the money to bribe, and deliberately said that they were from Guixi's hometown, and their master was Xia Shoufu's student. Although Menzi said that he looked at the two of them, he could tell from the accent that he was from his master's hometown. Feeling that he could not be lazy, he saw that the clothes of the master and servant were still extraordinary, so he planned that they were people from the family to receive relief.

The door that spit out the word "wait" in his mouth turned around and trotted in to report the news. Li Wenxuan, who was holding a folding fan in his right hand, slowly unfolded it and shook it. He didn't wear a Taoist robe to attract attention, and he was dressed up as a showman wearing a square scarf. I understand that the current emperor Lao'er is obsessed with Taoism, but it doesn't mean that Xia Yan also follows the trend, after all, he has been in contact with him, and he knows a little bit.

Li Wenxuan, who didn't want to cause disgust in Xia Yan's heart, couldn't be wrong in the costume of a scholar. After thinking about each other for a few months, the relationship lost the intimacy it had when it was in Guixi City. Even if he has a certain pertinence for this meeting, he still has some relevant news about Emperor Jiajing from Xia Yan's mouth, after all, the relationship between them is that of a monarch and a minister. Although the two don't get along day and night, they often see each other.

No matter what dynasty or generation, there is no one among the subordinates who does not guess what they like, after all, this companion is like a tiger. If one is not paying attention and says the wrong thing, it is not a joke. If you're lucky, maybe it's fine. Otherwise, it will be a demotion to an official, a serious exile, a raid on the house, a big prison, or even a beheading, a beheading, and the extermination of the nine clans.

Menzi, who went and returned, had a smile on his face, which was expressionless just now, and greeted warmly: "Come inside, please." ”

Li Wenxuan, who was not polite, raised his feet and walked straight in, and Zhao Han, who was following him, was the first to come to the house of the first assistant to take a look. Even if he was a casual observer, he didn't see why, but when he went back, he was able to brag about it. is not just a vanity and a happy mouth, but he clearly knows that he can follow Li Wenxuan, which means that he is an out-and-out confidant by the master's side.

Under the guidance of Menzi, Li Wenxuan, who walked into the hall of Xiafu, did not let Zhao Han stay in the hall with him, but ordered him to put down the souvenirs he brought from his hometown, and then instructed him to go down. It's not that he is stingy and doesn't send silver to Xia Yan, but he understands that this local product sent to his hometown can touch the other party's heart the most, and the other party will not refuse to accept it.

Li Wenxuan, who saw Xia Yan's face, naturally took the initiative to take the initiative to pass the junior courtesy, and then chose a position to sit down under the signal of the other party's movements. He didn't go to sit on an equal footing with Xia Yan, and sat on a chair below with the rules. After a while, the little maid in the Xia Mansion brought two cups of freshly brewed tea. After seeing the tea, she withdrew from the house, which can be regarded as quiet, and only Li Wenxuan and Xia Yan were left in the room.

Li Wenxuan, who had observed Xia Yan's complexion, didn't see his dark circles, so he knew that the other party's sleep had become very good and said: "I haven't seen him for a few months, and the old gentleman's complexion is getting more and more ruddy." ”

Since Xia Yan, who was able to sleep well, his mood was naturally much better. I knew that the credit for all this was still due to the little friend in front of me, so he said with a kind smile on his face: "If you hadn't taught the old man that set of Tai Chi, I'm afraid I would have had to sleep badly all day long." ”

Li Wenxuan, who had an opening remark, also regarded it as a greeting between each other, and said politely: "The old gentleman is really polite." In his later years, he just did what he could, and you were the pillar of my Ming Dynasty. If you're good, then she's good. Blessed are the people of the whole world. ”

waved his hand to signal Xia Yan, who had a good reputation for this remark, and said unhurriedly: "I don't know what happened to you entering Beijing?" ”

"Because of the late birth in his hometown to pray for Ganlin, I have this opportunity to enter the capital to face the saint." Li Wenxuan, who did not show triumphantness, although there were some changes in his heart, there was no emotion on his face.

Xia Yan, who knew very well what the current emperor liked, immediately understood when he heard what he said. I couldn't ask any more, so I knew that all this was reported to the magistrate below. Although he didn't know that the Dao was presented to the celebrant through the hand of the cabinet member, and then relayed to the Son of Heaven to know, he was sure that all this was done by the people below in order to cater to the will of the Lord.

For Xia Yan, who is good at Taoism today, even if he has a lot of complaints in his heart, he can't show this kind of anti-dragon scale behavior too much. He knew what Emperor Jiajing was, but he didn't want to use his neck to test whether the sword of the Son of Heaven was sharp. Seeing Li Wenxuan's Xia Yan, he did have a feeling of turning a bad thing into a good thing, after all, he knew something about the young man in front of him, and he still somewhat believed that the other party would not bewitch His Majesty. Of course, Jiajing is not so easy to be fooled casually.

"Since Your Majesty wants to see you, then you have to prepare well." Xia Yan, who knew that he had real skills, had a lot of words to hint at: "The monarch is virtuous, which is the blessing of the society." Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty reused virtuous ministers to make Siyi surrender, and foreign people did not dare to peep into the land of China. He was partial to witchcraft, but he committed serious mistakes one after another. ”

Li Wenxuan, who could understand people's words, responded in a serious manner: "Although the Dao Sect Technique is roughly divided into two types: Outer Dan Cultivation and Inner Dan Cultivation, but the Dao Method of the Later Birth is different from the two types of this tradition, but is a school of its own. As for the function of this, it is to cultivate self-cultivation, health and fitness, and lead people to the Tao of goodness. ”
