In the palace, Tang Emperor Li Zhongyi was reviewing the chapters, and a person outside the hall quickly walked to the front of the hall.

"Your Majesty, Master Yan Se asks to see you!"

"Xuan!"

Tang Huang put down the ink pen, got up to tidy up his clothes, looked at the steps that had already come, and stepped forward to ask.

"I don't know what Master Yan Se is about?"

Yan Se saluted first, and then smiled on his face full of ravines.

"Your Majesty, Wei Guangming has been taken back to the academy by Mr. Four."

"This is a good thing, I have always been worried that Wei Guangming is going to stir up trouble in the capital, although he has used many means, but after all, this person is the great priest of Xiling Guangming, and his cultivation is deep, I am afraid that my arrangement will be difficult to deter."

"The academy is the academy after all, although in recent years, because of the strong military of our Tang Dynasty, the military department has been arrogant, and the academy rarely cares about state affairs, but it has always stood behind the Tang Dynasty and supported the foundation of the strong and prosperous Tang Kingdom."

Master Yan Se nodded, looked at the maidservants around him, and looked solemn.

"Your Majesty, today I walked to Chang'an, Mr. Four traveled hand in hand with him to Taoshan, after returning, Taoshan was red, and the Xiling Temple lost hundreds of insects and ants."

"Master Yan Se, is this true?"

Seeing Master Yan Se nodding solemnly, Emperor Tang laughed, and then suddenly remembered the power of Zhishouguan, and hurriedly asked: "Are the four junior brothers okay?" ”

"Back to Your Majesty, Xiong Chumo united the power of everyone in Xiling to perform the Pure World Divine Technique, although Mr. Four was fine, but he also returned with injuries."

"Good, good! This is the luck of Datang, Mr. Four's move is enough to shock the world! ”

Yan Se looked at the Tang Emperor who was long-faced and happy, and the joy in his heart was even greater, but when he remembered the night in the Spring Breeze Pavilion, the smile on his face gradually stiffened.

"Your Majesty, Mr. Four said a few days ago that some people are doing chicken crow and dog theft in my Tang Kingdom."

"Oh? What is it about my Datang that can alarm the fourth junior brother? ”

Tang Huang put away the joy in his heart, looked at the seriousness on Master Yan Se's obscene face, and realized that things were not so simple.

"According to Mr. Four, someone organized the restoration of the National Assembly in the underground of Chang'an and provoked my Tang officials, the day before yesterday, Chunfeng Pavilion ......"

"How daring!"

Emperor Tang was furious, anger rolled in his eyes, and he frowned and thought for a moment.

"Did the fourth junior brother clearly say who did this?"

Yan Se said a word silently, Tang Huang was speechless, looked at the direction of the academy, turned around and returned to the front of the case.

"Grandpa Lin!"

"The old slave is here!"

"Announcing my will, the entrance examination of the academy the day after tomorrow, I and Master Yan Se, and the national teacher will come to the academy in person to encourage people with lofty ideals in the Tang Dynasty."

After Duke Lin received the decree and left, Master Yan Se looked at Emperor Tang, and he didn't know what to do with He Mingchi.

"Your Majesty, the old minister is guilty!"

After thinking for a moment, Yan Se bowed down and pleaded guilty, and Emperor Tang hurriedly stepped forward and helped Master Yan Se up.

"Master Yan Se, why do you need such a big gift?"

"Yan Se has eyes but no beads, and has mistrusted villains for nearly 20 years."

"Master Yan Se has something to say, I know the contributions that the national teacher and you have made to my Tang Dynasty in recent years, if it is not necessary, I will not be angry at the south gate of Haotian Dao."

Hearing Emperor Tang say this, Master Yan Se was very moved in his heart, and he was even more ashamed.

"According to Mr. Si, My junior brother's only disciple, He Mingchi, was implicated in the Restoration Congress. A few days ago, I followed him and found that what Mr. Four said was true. In order to prevent the grass from startling the snake, the old minister did not dare to speak out. ”

"It was him! The master doesn't have to be like this, I have already decided on this matter. It's just the national teacher's side, I ......"

"Your Majesty, please rest assured, my junior brother has me to explain, and it should be fine!"

"That's very good, since these people are thieves and want to disturb the Tang Dynasty, then I will accompany him to play a play."

After Yan Se left the palace, he immediately found Li Qingshan, the national teacher of the Tang Dynasty. Li Qingshan, who was dressed in a white Confucian robe, was sitting in the south gate of Haotian Dao at the moment, with a chessboard in front of him, and the person playing against him was He Mingchi.

"Senior brother, there is something senior brother wants to tell you."

"Senior brother, if you have something to say, there are no outsiders here."

Li Qingshan picked up the chess pieces and fell into the chessboard, and Master Yan Se had already made a plan when he came. In order not to arouse suspicion, it is necessary to need some information with mixed truth and falsehood to confuse, and at the same time attract the attention of the junior and disciple.

"Wei Guangming escaped from Xiling Pavilion and entered Chang'an City!"

"What ??!"

The chess piece in Li Qingshan's hand fell to the ground, and he hurriedly turned his head to look at Yan Se, seeing that the latter was not joking, his expression became more and more serious.

A gleam flashed in He Mingchi's eyes, but he was very good at concealing it, but his panic instantly returned to his original state.

"Mingchi, you step back first, this matter is very important, I need to discuss a thing or two with your master, and remember, this matter should not be spread outside, so as not to cause panic."

He Mingchi retreated as promised, and Master Yan Se looked at him meaningfully.

"Senior brother, is Wei Guangming really in Chang'an City?"

Li Qingshan didn't notice anything, and seemed worried about Wei Guangming's matter.

"Senior brother, Wei Guangming has been brought to the academy by Mr. Fourth of the Academy, don't worry too much."

Seeing that Li Qingshan's expression was relaxed when he heard this, Master Yan Se continued to speak: "Senior brother, now there is more than this..."

He Mingchi listened attentively, but Yan Se was not vigilant, and the distance was too far to hear any useful information. But just the fact that Wei Guangming came to Chang'an was very important to him.

Back at the residence, He Mingchi closed the door tightly, changed his clothes and left the inner secret room.

"Inform His Royal Highness the Crown Prince that Wei Guangming has come to Chang'an City!"

On a street corner, He Mingchi interacted with a vegetable vendor and left. Not long after, when he came to an inn, He Mingchi left a letter on the counter, and left in a hurry after giving a word of advice.

It's just that not long after He Mingchi left, the vegetable vendor and the people in the shop were all controlled by the Tang Yulin Army.

Li Qingshan looked at He Mingchi's handwritten letter in his hand, and a trace of sadness appeared on his face.

He Mingchi is his apprentice, in addition to this identity, Li Qingshan regards him as his own person. He is proficient in the art of deduction, but he has never doubted him, but it is this trust that has made He Mingchi by his side for twenty years!

"National teacher, Your Majesty has instructed that before the leader of the Restoration Congress is found, you must not startle the snake."

"Commander Xu, please tell Your Majesty that Li Qingshan will definitely cooperate with Your Majesty's actions."

Xu Chongshan looked at Li Qingshan and wanted to say something, but seeing Li Qingshan's face full of sorrow, he sighed secretly and left.

Who would have thought that the child he raised with his own hands would be a person with ill intentions. This kind of thing, in Xu Chongshan's opinion, no matter who it is, is unacceptable in a short period of time, and it is not a good strategy to persuade at this time.

Time slipped away invisibly, and today is the day of the college entrance examination. Many geniuses from the Haotian world will be assessed for admission to the academy today.

Early this morning, Ning Que pulled Sang Sang to get up, and the two began to freshen up and eat.

The opening day of the academy is a major event for the entire Tang Dynasty and even the whole world. Many people dream of being admitted to the academy, and some people do it, and some people can't do it in their lifetime.

Ning Que sat in the carriage and watched Sang Sauna take a small porcelain altar, sniffing it from time to time, looking very fascinated, and finally asked.

"Sangsang, you have been holding this small jar since the day before yesterday, could it be that what kind of spice is in it?"

The little maid smiled, and received the small jar to her waist without saying a word, even if the waist was supported very strangely, she didn't feel awkward at all. Ning Que smiled and casually took out a small cloth bag from his arms.

"Use this, see that you cherish it so much, and I think it was given to you by that mysterious person?"

Although Ning Que's expression was very calm when he said this, his tone was still a little unhappy. Of course, this unhappiness does not come from the mysterious person, but from the little maid Sangsang who also has her own secrets.

"Young master, you have to work hard in today's academy exam. Our future life depends on you. ”

"What's wrong? Are you worried that your young master won't be able to get into the academy? So little confidence in the young master? ”

has had many experiences in his previous life, and Ning Que has absolute confidence in this exam that determines the fate of his life.

Sang Sang didn't say a word, gently put the small porcelain jar into the cloth bag, and then held it in front of him and sniffed it, so he was satisfied.

"Master, your legs are shaking!"

"When the young master thinks of something happy, he will shake his legs."

"Young Master, your forehead is sweating!"

"The young master has worn too much, and it is all your fault for wearing too many clothes for the young master."

"Young master, your clothes are about to be torn by you!"

"The young master just tried the quality of this dress, bought it for fifty taels, and if it was broken, it was just taken and returned."

A light rain fell outside the carriage, and Ning Que loosened his waist and wiped the sweat from his forehead with some heat.

The carriage moved forward steadily, and soon came to the south of Chang'an, and came to the foot of the mountain, looking at the gate of the academy that had stood silently for thousands of years at the gate of the mountain, Ning Que suddenly calmed down, and there was no reason for this calm.

Maybe it's because I've experienced a similar scene in a previous life, or maybe it's because the atmosphere here is reassuring. The specific reason is not clear to Ning Que.
