Chapter 44: The Dao Pavilion
Hearing Feng Qingyao call Ji Donglou's child, Ji Yanran couldn't help but be stunned for a moment, Feng Qingyao was only a few months older than Ji Donglou, and according to the algorithm of this world, the two were actually the same age. If someone else were to say that, it would be surprising. But when these words came out of Feng Qingyao's mouth, it seemed to be extremely natural, making people feel that Feng Qingyao should call Ji Donglou like that.
But what surprised Ji Yanran even more was Feng Qingyao's eyes and attitude when he spoke, Feng Qingyao was very scared of Ji Donglou in the past, and he didn't even dare to mention this name, but now he was not afraid at all.
But just for a moment, Ji Yanran was thrown aside, Ji Yanran had already had her own judgment on Feng Qingyao's previous behavior, that is, pretending. Since the previous qiē was pretended, now that no one pays attention to it anymore, it is normal to be normal, and it is normal not to be afraid of Ji Donglou.
"It's good that you're not rude to your husband. Well...... The day after tomorrow is the 15th day of July, Obon, and my husband promised me to go to Obon with me. Although it was something that Feng Qingyao had already agreed to, Ji Yanran was still a little worried, after all, Ji Yanran also knew that if she went out with a woman like herself, she would definitely be laughed at by others, so the more she talked, the quieter her voice became.
"Oh, the day after tomorrow is Obon. When the time comes, Madame calls me, and we will take Qiu Xiang out to have a look. Feng Qingyao could naturally sense Ji Yanran's worries, and said with a light smile.
"Yes, good. When the time comes, I will call my husband to go with me. Ji Yanran said excitedly. "On that day, there was not only a temple fair in Daxiang Temple, but also all kinds of delicious and fun things. Moreover, among the nine monks of Buddhism, the little monk will also open the altar to preach the scriptures and preach the Dharma, and surpass the dead. ”
"Oh, one of the nine monks will also go to participate in this Obon Festival?" Originally, Feng Qingyao went to see the temple fair, and participated in the Obon Festival just to accompany Ji Yanran to go out for a walk, but now when he heard the wish of one of the nine monks of Buddhism, he couldn't help but move slightly, and he was a little interested in this temple fair.
Feng Qingyao originally wanted to meet the three great teachers of Great Qi, but according to Qiu Xiang's words, the three national teachers would not be able to see each other in any short period of time, not even their brothers and disciples. The nine monks, the seven sons, and the eight shows, the twenty-four outstanding third-generation disciples of the three schools of Confucianism, Buddhism and Taoism, are the highest candidates he can contact now. Finally, this wonderful wish, one of the nine monks, came to the capital, how could Feng Qingyao not seize the opportunity to meet him?
Seeing that Feng Qingyao seemed to be very interested in the little monk of Miao Yuan, Ji Yanran said some rumors about what happened to this little monk of Miao Yuan. Even the rumors and anecdotes of Baxiu, Jiu Sheng, and Qizi have also been told a lot.
The circle that Ji Yanran can contact is naturally not comparable to Qiu Xiang, and the things she said are much more detailed than what Qiu Xiang said, and many things are also a lot more true. Unlike what Qiu Xiang said, most of them are completely folk rumors, and there is no credibility at all.
Ji Yanran kept talking there, and Feng Qingyao lay on the bed and listened carefully with a smile on his face. First, there are still some things that interest him in what Ji Yanran said, and second, Ji Yanran is obviously very few people are willing to listen to her so patiently, so she seems very excited and happy. Feng Qingyao was unwilling to destroy Ji Yanran's good mood. At this time, Ji Yanran felt a little like what she should have at her normal age, and there was a smile on her face.
"Madam, do you know where there are books about demon beasts? I saw the demon beasts of the Southern Barbarians outside today, and I wanted to see related things, but I didn't find such a book in the house. ”
After Ji Yanran had almost finished talking and the excitement had gone down, Feng Qingyao asked.
"Books about monsters? Ji Yanran said with a look of embarrassment.
"Oh, isn't there anything at home?" Feng Qingyao didn't have a look of loss on his face. After not finding such a book in the study of the Ji Mansion, Feng Qingyao knew that the books that recorded the demon beasts probably did not circulate much. So I was not very surprised by Ji Yanran's words.
"Don't say we don't have them at home, even the other adults in the court don't have these books in their homes. Ji Yanran shook her head and said.
"Oh, where can you see a book like this?"
"These books are only available in a few places in the world. There are such books in the Confucian Garden, the Taoist Pavilion of Taoism, and the Zen Monastery of Buddhism. There is also the Kuixing Tower under the jurisdiction of Lord Taishi, as well as the White Tiger Hall under the command of Lord Taiwei, and the secret pavilion in the palace. Except for these six places, there is no place in our Daqi where there will be such books. Not...... There should be similar books in the Fa, Mo, and Yin and Yang schools, but they are generally not read by others. Ji Yanran thought about it and said.
"Hmm, the other five places except the Secret Pavilion are all there?" Feng Qingyao knew that such books were difficult to find after he didn't find similar books in the Ji Mansion, but he still didn't expect it to be so difficult. Originally, I thought that General Zhennan would be able to let the generals under his command drag the demon beast through the street, which should not be a secret thing, but now it seems that there are definitely a lot of secrets on the demon beast, and it is not a small secret.
"If you want to go to the Confucian Garden, the Taoist Pavilion, the Zen Temple, the Kuixing Tower, and the White Tiger Hall to find these books to read?
As long as you are a general above the commander of the White Tiger Hall, you can go in and see it, although it is impossible to see anything too secret, but presumably you can still see the books that record demon beasts. It's the same with Kuixing Tower, you can also go to see it if you have a reputation above the fifth grade or if you enter the Hanlin Academy after being admitted to the Jinshi.
The Confucian Garden is more troublesome, and if you want to enter the Confucian Garden, you don't look at your cultivation, fame and the like, but completely depend on your Confucian attainments. The world-famous Confucianism can enter as long as you have a name, and if you are not famous, as long as you cultivate the righteousness of Haoran, you can enter the Confucian Garden without hindrance.
The Taoist Pavilion and Zen Temple seem to be the easiest to enter, requiring you to answer a few questions, and if you can pass the level, you will be allowed to enter. But in fact, it is the most difficult, at least in the past ten years, I have rarely heard anyone who can give a satisfactory answer to the Taoist Pavilion and the Zen Monastery and enter. ”
"Oh, yes, where is the closest to us? I'll take a look when I'm free. Feng Qingyao nodded slightly and said indifferently.
"The closest to us is the Dao Pavilion, on the Zhongnan Mountain outside the city. After speaking, Ji Yanran wanted to say something, but in the end she still didn't say it.
Although Ji Yanran didn't say it, Feng Qingyao could guess it. It's just that I'm worried that I won't be able to get in the door and be blocked outside the door and lose face.
In fact, Ji Yanran really thought so, although Feng Qingyao made Ji Yanran extremely surprised during this time. He is very knowledgeable and has an extraordinary understanding of Confucianism. The medical skills should also be very good, and the chess skills can be regarded as top-notch. But it was still not so easy to enter the Dao Pavilion.
