At the beginning of the ceremony, drums were played.

Dongyue Zhenren holds the nine-layer high step of the Three Treasures Incense Step, and recites the words in his mouth: "Pure moral incense, offer the Void Emperor, and see the auspicious light from afar." ”

After the incense, first insert one in the middle of the furnace, then insert it into the left, three insert it into the right, and the three incense sticks mean 'Dao Bao Xiang', 'Jing Bao Xiang', and 'Shi Bao Xiang'. The distance between them is about an inch, and it is called 'inch heart'.

White smoke swirled around, Dongyue Zhenren stood on the high platform, wearing a Taoist robe with blue edges on a white background fluttering in the wind, unlike the laymen in the world, a little fairy wind and bones.

Today's dojo is tightly guarded, except for the students of Jixia Palace, it is a group of local officials who take the history of Licheng as the first, all of them are solemn and pious, and they dare not come out.

Yunqi and Lu Anran were mixed in, the two of them didn't believe in Buddhism and just watched the excitement, but they also felt that Dongyue Zhenren was really much more advanced than Zhang Tianshi.

He doesn't have a peachwood sword in his hand, and he doesn't breathe fire in his mouth, but he just salutes incense unpretentiously, but reveals a boundless human temperament.

"It's not unreasonable that Sanyuan Palace can mix so well." Yunqi lowered his voice and said in the volume of the two of them: "Just this one, it costs a lot." ”

Lu Anran didn't squint, looked ahead and moved his lips, "Back to the basics, truth is the original intention of the Tao." ”

Yunqi chuckled: "You let Xunqing be infected?" ”

Lu Anran shook his eyes and glanced at him, "Shizi, pray for the heavens, don't make noise." ”

"It's a pity that this son is a little bit of a pity, and the good time was wasted on a group of Taoist priests." I don't know what to think of, the big sleeve swept lightly, bringing a breeze, "I'll give you a good thing." ”

Lu Anran's wrist was flipped over, something was stuffed in, and he couldn't help but look down after holding it for a long time, it was a candy wrapped in mulberry paper, and the two corners were also tied into rabbit ears.

"I bought it for Xiao Xunqing yesterday, and when I saw this candy, I suddenly thought of you, does it look like it?"

Lu Anran's eyes twitched, where did she look like a rabbit?

(Xun Qing at home is also extremely depressed when he looks at a table of cute and cute snacks, he is already a mature Taoist, not a child!) ）

Standing here before dawn, he has been standing for three or two hours, the bowl of porridge in Lu Anran's stomach has already been digested, and the red sun is shining above his head at this time, and his mind is full of the bowl of rice noodles cooked by the autumn cicadas when he came to Diqiu on the first day.

When I was hungry, I suddenly felt that the rice rolls tasted commendable.

Lu Anran pinched the candy in his palm, but he still couldn't do the act of disassembling and stealing it in this scene.

"Ah~" Yun Qi let out a soft call.

Lu Anran subconsciously looked over, the clouds in front of her were like white clouds, covering her eyes, lifting her masked cloth, her mouth moved, and the tip of her tongue touched the slightest sweetness.

As soon as he raised his eyes, he smiled at Shangyun's sly eyes.

Yunqi raised an eyebrow - delicious, right?

Lu Anran pursed his lips, as if a trace of sweetness had been passed from his taste buds to his heart.

"Ahem-" A very light cough sound came from the side, Nangong Zhi raised his head and looked straight ahead, the expression on his face was a little indescribable, these two people are almost okay.

Lu Anran and Yunqi put their minds back on the sacrifice ceremony, at this time Dongyue Zhenren retreated to the side, the prince took his left foot, walked to the futon in three steps, stood upright, his eyes hung down the curtain, calm and calm, his feet were two inches apart, about five inches away from the kneeling pad, and his toes were about eight inches apart, facing outward.

The hands intersect in front of the abdomen to protect the middle dantian, the left thumb is inserted into the tiger's mouth of the right hand, pinch the ring finger pattern of the right hand, the thumb of the right hand pinch the middle finger of the right hand meridian pattern, and the remaining four fingers of the left hand hold the right hand.

When saluting, the hands are level with the nose, the palm is inward, the right hand is naturally arcing to the right, bowing at the same time, bending the knees, squatting, the right palm is placed on the futon, the left palm is drawn to the left and the lower arc, intersecting with the right hand dorsal cross, the left thumb is inserted into the palm of the right hand, and the knees are leaning on the outside of the futon, and then the head and hands are close to the valley point three times, which is called three knocks.

After completing it once, let go of the left hand and return to the middle dantian, hold the futon with the right hand and slowly get up, collect the qi in the middle dantian, and arch with both hands.

Repeated three times, it is called three kneeling and nine knocking, which is the highest etiquette of Taoism.

Originally, the Son of Heaven came to pray in person, but the emperor was still far away from the royal capital, and the emperor could not leave easily, and the prince was the successor to the throne, so the prince replaced the kneeling sky.

Dongyue Zhenren's index finger was dipped in the wine cup on the prayer table, and he flicked it three times on the prince's body, muttering a large number of words in his mouth, and the ceremony was almost over.

However, the dojo will take forty-nine days, and this is the beginning of the question.

However, there was no need to be present at the whole time, seeing that Dongyue Zhenren and a group of Sanyuan Palace Dao Masters were in place, and after everyone gave up their hands with Taoist salutes, they withdrew from the dojo one by one.

was already pampered and relaxed, and the students felt that their legs were not their own, and they couldn't take a step, so they wouldn't be embarrassed to hold on to them.

Tomorrow, the students will have to come to listen to the sermon, but they will sit cross-legged on the futon and do not have to stand the whole time.

Lu Anran's legs and feet are sore, but she can't move away, she often runs out by herself in Mengdu, compared to most of the delicate ladies who go out in a sedan chair, I don't know how much stronger.

She followed the flow of people out, and suddenly called out to someone to stop.

"Miss Lu." There was a surprise in the kiss of the came, "I heard that the students of Jixia Palace went to Diqiu to listen to the sermon, and the lower official thought that the young lady must have also come, and I saw it from a distance just now, so it is inconvenient to disturb, so I am here to give the young lady a gift." ”

This conversation attracted the attention of others, and everyone couldn't help but be amused and sarcastic when they saw a Baba wearing a prefect's robe running to greet Lu Anran.

This official is really confused, he doesn't give the Lord of Anjun a courtesy, nor does he give Nangong Shaofu a courtesy, and he goes to find Lu Anran, a young lady of the Mengdu clan, is it possible that he still wants to go to the north to blow sand.

No matter what others think, the two of them here really have a little joy to see each other.

Lu Anran's dark eyes lit up, "Yu Zhixian? Looking at the style of his official robe, he said: "Yu Governor's Mansion." ”

Unexpectedly, the newly appointed prefect of Huaiqing Mansion was actually an old acquaintance.

Yu Fangjing waved his hand, "It's just a name, it's all the same." ”

"Zhengliupin Zhixian was transferred from the Sipin Prefect, how can it be the same." Yun Qi threw up the jade bone fan, smiled and squinted his peach blossom eyes, and said, "Yu Zhifu was promoted very quickly." ”

Although Yu Fangjing is not from Mengzhou, he has been in Mengdu for many years, so he has also had contact with this merry prince, and shook his head with a smile: "Don't laugh at the lower officials, the lower officials have this promotion, and they are still blessed by Miss Lu." ”

If Lu Anran hadn't made a move in the case that day, he might have created an unjust, false and wrongful case, and when he thought that the people in Jixia Palace were mixed in Mengdu, Yu Fangjing almost didn't break out in a cold sweat.

"Miss Lu is very smart and has amazing talents, and it is really fortunate to be able to have Miss take care of one or two."

Lu Anran has been away from Mengdu for a long time, and when he sees Yu Fangjing, he always feels a little hometown friendship, and even his little slippery oil doesn't feel much annoying now.

Yunqi patted Yu Fangjing's shoulder with a jade bone fan, "It's better to count the materials you can make, otherwise this girl will be useless no matter how much she takes care of it." ”

Yu Fangjing was taken aback by the intimacy in his tone, and he couldn't think about it more, Yunqi said again: "Huh? So it's you who deceived this son of the world and came here? ”

"The Prince...... Xiaguan really didn't mean to embarrass you, this yaksha can't be seen or touched, and it's difficult to do it. ”

Yun Qi smiled, "Come on, can the son of this world care about you and the emperor?" ”

Yu Fangjing didn't dare to talk about it.

As the prefect of Huaiqing Mansion has a lot of affairs, Yu Fangjing simply complimented a few words, and hurriedly said goodbye to the two of them and took a step forward.

"Although Yu Fangjing is not talented, he can see the situation clearly and can bend and stretch." Yunqi commented: "You lost his face on the spot, but I can see from him that he is truly grateful to you and is a person who understands current affairs." ”

I'm not afraid of stupid people, I'm afraid I can't carry it clearly.

The two of them walked out of the mountain pass, and the officials' carriages and horses were gone, but they didn't expect that the group of Jixia Palace students hadn't left.

"Everyone is tired, the county lord said that there is a Zhuangzi below, and someone has gone to inform him, telling him to prepare lunch and eat it first before returning to the county office." Nangong Zhi saw the confusion in the eyes of Yunqi and the others, and walked over to explain deliberately.

It takes about half an hour to return to the county office from the dojo, and it only takes a stick of incense to go to the Zhuangzi below, and the students can't walk when they hear about it.

Yunqi has never been a person who has wronged himself, as soon as he closed the fan, grabbed it in his hand, and said with a smile: "Shaofu is really considerate." ”

Nangong Zhi smiled lightly: "It should be." ”

The others sat in the carriage one after another, and Yun Qi did not enter the carriage this time, and rode in parallel with Nangong Zhi.

"Whose Zhuangzi, why is it in this ...... where there is no village in front of the village and no shop in the back" The three words 'ghost place' in Yun Qi's mouth seemed inappropriate when he thought that the emperor chose this place to set up a dojo, and seamlessly switched to, "Good place." ”

Nangong Zhi obviously inquired and replied: "The richest family in the local area, surnamed Zhou, and the head of the family is called Zhou Hou. ”

"Name yourself a good man?" Yun Qi hooked the corners of his mouth, always looking lazy, and said in a casual tone: "Wait for the emperor's dojo team to withdraw, this will be a really good place in the future, blessed land, a big blessed land, he made a fortune in vain." ”

The royal dojo, Sanyuan Palace Dongyue real people went into battle in person, not a fairy land, but also a blessed land.

Nangong Zhi held the reins loosely with both hands, and laughed when he heard the words: "Yun Shizi's words seem to be a troupe." ”

"Shaofu shouldn't go to the emperor to complain, right? After all, the emperor is very fond of you. ”

Nangong Zhi smiled slightly, the white clouds entered his eyes, and his gaze was a little lighter, "Yun Shizi is too worried, I just do my duty as a courtier." ”

Yunqi touched his chin, Nangong Zhi smiled and was gentle and polite to everyone, so he always said that Nangong Zhi was hypocritical, but he recognized Nangong Zhi's gentlemanly demeanor in his heart, but he didn't know why he suddenly became cold.

Who in the world doesn't know that the emperor values the Marquis of Wu'an, and even his trust in Nangong Zhi is extraordinary, and sometimes even the prince can't compare, but now Nangong Zhi's attitude, is there something hidden in it?

"What is Yun Shizi thinking?" Nangong interrupted his fugue.

Yun Qi came back to his senses, "When you talk about the Zhou family, I think of it, the first person Yaksha left the deep mountains and old forests to eat was the Zhou family, does Zhou Hou have a daughter named Zhou Pei?" ”

Nangong shook his head, "This ...... I didn't ask. "For no reason, he can't ask his daughter's name as soon as he comes up.

"I don't think there are many people surnamed Zhou and very rich, right?"
