The rain came and went suddenly, the clouds and rain dissipated at noon, and the hawkers who sheltered from the rain moved things out to sell again, and occasionally the horse-drawn carriages that passed by rolled over the puddles and splashed muddy water, which provoked a burst of curses from the passers-by and the hawkers who were walking aside, and the young man shook the folding fan in his hand, looking stunned, looking at the people in front of him.

The tall palace wall separates the inside and outside of the imperial city, and the ground in the imperial city that is repaired every year is neat, and the water is also moving fast, so naturally there is no such concern. The young man in plain clothes walked leisurely on the palace road, looking indifferent. There are not many people who can appear here without official uniforms and at the point of lower value, and this one in front of him is one of them.

The palace people who passed by saw him from a distance, looked respectful, and bent down to salute: "Mr. Pei." ”

Pei Zongzhi glanced at the palace people, then withdrew his gaze and continued to walk forward, not in a hurry or slowly, without the slightest change in pace.

Along the way, he received an unknown number of "Mr. Pei", and when he was about to reach the palace gate, he stopped and looked at the girl wearing the official robe of the Yin and Yang Division who saluted him in front of him.

The girl got up after giving a salute: "Your Majesty is okay lately?" ”

Pei Zongzhi looked at her and was silent for a moment: "It's okay, but it's ......" he paused, "It may not be good for you." ”

The girl obviously understood, and her eyes flashed: "The folk warlock I went to Xianyang County to find is really your majesty's order." ”

"As it should be." At the moment, when he was on duty, there was no one on the palace road, Pei Zongzhi glanced at the patrolling guards, and saw that they were still far away from here, and said, "Your Majesty has summoned me to ask about some old things in the past few days. ”

"What's the old thing?"

"Ask the pre-Qin warlock Xu Fu about asking for immortal medicine, and ask about the Liu family's old things." Pei Zongzhi said, "Your Majesty lamented that the crown prince died early, and several highnesses did not become a weapon. ”

The girl snorted: "No successor is also Your Majesty's obsession, and the forbidden technique of immortality can solve many people's obsessions, and it really works." ”

"This door forbidden technique is forbidden by all yin and yang magicians in the world, and Your Majesty will not talk to me about this matter openly, let alone consult with me." Pei Zongzhi looked at the patrol guards who were walking here from afar, "The attitude of the actual temple towards forbidden arts is the same as that of the yin and yang warlocks in the world, I can only guess about this matter, but Your Majesty will not discuss it with me." ”

Wei Yaoqing looked at him for a moment and hesitated: "You ...... Is that what you see? Of course, she didn't think that Pei Zongzhi, who had seven emotions and six desires, would be some kind of compassionate saint, but given his identity and the fact that he was a master of Tianguang, would he really stand by and watch?

Pei Zongzhi did not hesitate at all: "Do you want me to admonish?" He glanced at her, as if he was a little strange, "Then what do you want those officials to do?" ”

This kind of course but has its own simple truth, all living beings in the world have their own place, you can say that he is not good, but you cannot say that he is wrong.

"I mean Master Tianguang......" Looking at the patrol guards coming this way, Wei Yaoqing only mentioned it slightly, then said no more, and followed Pei Zongzhi out of the palace gate.

When he walked a little farther, Pei Zongzhi said, "I understand what you mean." ”

He said and looked at it, but his expression was still indifferent, but he didn't know if it was her illusion, Wei Yaoqing actually felt a little serious, and this serious look was probably only available when he was serious about eating. This comparison may be a little ridiculous to others, but for Pei Zongzhi, Wei Yaoqing feels that this is probably the reaction when facing major events. For him, eating is a big deal.

"Do you mean that the actual temple will intervene?" He said, "The matter of the previous dynasty is because of the actual temple of the national Zuo derivation, according to the national Zuo derivation, the Liu family changed hands, the actual temple is a shot, but it is just a trivial matter, the real country is His Majesty Taizong, is his courtiers, including the Zhang family." ”

"Now that the actual temple has miscalculated, naturally I won't count it......"

"Therefore, the actual temple does not make a move, and should follow the trend, and wait until the situation is clear, and then push it forward......"

"If the actual temple does not intervene, I will naturally not intervene ......"

"As for Master, it's his business whether he will intervene or not......"

……

"In fact, even if you intervene, it may not be useful." After listening to this, Wei Yaoqing sighed, she just wanted to ask, the reason why forbidden techniques are forbidden is because they are tempting, most people can't resist such temptations, and it is very unlikely that Emperor Mingzong will listen to the advice, but his advice is always more useful than the advice of others. At the moment, it is certain that Pei Zongzhi will not intervene, and in her opinion, "persuasion" is useless.

Of course she has selfish intentions, her selfishness is very simple from the beginning, she wants revenge, revenge on the blood of the Zhang family, and she doesn't want to let go of any of the things related to this matter. Coincidentally, Huai Guogong, who used this matter to tempt His Majesty, had something to do with the blood feud of the Zhang family, and she naturally had to take care of it.

"If Xue Xingshu hadn't been implicated in this matter, would you still care?" Pei Zongzhi was silent for a moment, and suddenly asked her.

"I don't know." Wei Yaoqing thought for a while and said, "Maybe not!" She has clear grievances in her heart, and she knows good and evil, but she is not a pure and good person, and the righteousness of the world seems to be a little far away from her.

"You were born with a Taoist backbone, so Zhang Changming wants you to be Zhang Ludao." Pei Zongzhi walked with her, the shouts of the vendors on both sides were chaotic and loud, his voice was not loud, but she heard every word clearly.

"yes!" She looked up, the sky was clear after the rain, the sunlight was a little dazzling, and then she lowered her head again, kicking the stones as she walked, her behavior was not vulgar but absolutely had nothing to do with elegance, of course she didn't know how to walk well, no matter which family or clan, the teaching of the eldest daughter was always better than those girls in the back, she had received the best etiquette, and she could be a model for the world like the best women of the world, but she didn't like it, maybe after all, she was wild.

"Even if nothing happens, I can't do Zhang Ludao." What would she do if nothing happened? is probably a qualified lady of the Zhang family in the eyes of her grandfather, and she will one day become the first female Heavenly Master of Dachu. What about other than that? Except that she is a woman and young, she will probably look no different from other great heavenly masters. Maybe it won't be a step worse, but after all, it is mediocre, and it may not be mediocre compared to ordinary Great Heavenly Masters, but compared with Zhang Ludao, who also has a Taoist backbone, it is definitely mediocre.

"Can't do it......" Pei Zongzhi stopped, looked at the young man who was interfering with him not far from the street, leaning over slightly to show his salute, and spoke, "Someone is looking for you, I'll leave first." ”

After Pei Zongzhi left, Wei Yaoqing walked over, looking at Wang Xu who was holding a folding fan and shaking slightly, she was silent for a moment, "Isn't it cold?" ”

"Get used to it." Wang Xu didn't care, and looked at her, "I'll just say a word, and I'll leave after speaking." ”

Wei Yaoqing's heart moved, and she vaguely guessed his intention, even if no one said anything about this matter, there were many people who could guess it, she could guess it, but others couldn't guess it? There has never been a shortage of smart people in Chang'an City, and what's more, they are far more well-informed than her, and they may have known it earlier.

She asked, "What words?" ”

"Grandfather asked me to tell you," the folding fan in Wang Xu's hand stopped shaking.

"We don't care about the rest."
