As the sun was approaching, the county lord's carriage passed through a quiet willow-lined alley and stopped in front of King Ning's mansion.

Ning Wangfu is located in Huayan Street, the red wall of Zhumen, covers an area of 500 acres, almost a square of land, is a rare wealthy garden in Shangjing, the two unicorn stone statues standing in front of the palace are not angry and self-mighty, the palace pavilions can be seen in the mansion, the garden lake is like a natural formation, it completely shows what is the royal dignitary, and it is only a street away from the Shangjing Imperial Palace.

Lin Qi also had to sigh that fifteen years ago, the mysterious old Taoist known as the 'Guan Lord' was indeed very dedicated to him.

promised to send him to a family to ensure his peace and wealth for eighteen years, but he was actually sent to King Ning's mansion.

King Ning, is the fifth brother of the current saint, when he helped the saint ascend the throne, and then the border war in Daxia, King Ning went out for seven years, and made a lot of big and small contributions, and when the border was stable, King Ning took the initiative to hand over the military power, and returned to Beijing to be a prince of peace who did not ask about the court situation and did not care about political affairs.

Such a prince who is well versed in the way of kings and ministers, and is favored by the saints, will not be involved in the party struggle in the court, but can enjoy the prosperity of the world to the fullest, so naturally he can't find a second better choice.

Judging from the novels and TV series that Lin Qi knew in his previous life, it was already the finale when ordinary travelers were finally able to get to this point in ancient times, and when he was still an infant, he had already reached this goal, and he was naturally very satisfied with the arrangement of the nameless old way.

It may not be as good as modern life in some aspects, but the fun of being a human being is still very good.

And he can also carry the poems of his previous life, so that he can win the name of the first son of Beijing, if it weren't for the martial arts of his own county lord's sister is too high, and the little princess of Taiping is too troublesome, I am afraid that his reputation would have become the 'first merry son'.

"Little brother, when the master asked for the warm jade 'Huo Linglong', I came out of the palace to look for you on the pretext that Huo Linglong was your private property. ”

After getting out of the carriage, the county lord of Pingle whispered while entering the palace with Lin Qi from the middle gate, and did not forget to instruct: "When you meet that person later, if you suspect that he is just a charlatan, just find an excuse to refuse, and Daddy will expel that person from the mansion." ”

Lin Qi nodded slightly, and his right index finger slowly rubbed the Ugin ring on his thumb, and then retracted his right hand into his sleeve.

The siblings walked through the lush flower courtyard, and in the faint magnolia fragrance, they went straight to the main hall 'Mingxin Hall'.

Mingxin Hall, taken from the meaning of 'clear heart, not discreet', the hall is beautifully decorated, the pattern is solemn, it is the place where the palace receives distinguished guests and discusses important matters.

At this time, the sky was dark, and the light of bright candles had already been lit in the Mingxin Hall, and the two sisters and brothers walked up the steps, and after entering the hall, they saw that there were already two people sitting on the two chairs on the upper seat.

On the left is Prince Ning, who is more than half a hundred years old, who has lived in the capital for many years of comfortable life, which has washed away the battlefield evil spirit of the golden iron horse on his body, making his eyebrows a little more elegant, and even the figure under the black costume is slightly fat, causing the leather hanging from the jade belt hook around his waist to be a little tight, and he seems to be just an elegant and easy-going middle-aged scribe.

Sitting on the right side of King Ning is a yellow-robed Taoist, holding a teacup, slightly bowing his head and sipping fragrant tea, his face is young and handsome after the heat, his eyebrows are slanted into the sideburns, but his hair is already gray, quite a bit of a crane hair and a childish fairy style.

Lin Qi suddenly realized.

No wonder this person is obviously vague in his steps, he can't even avoid the splashing tea, and he has many suspicious points, but King Ning is still only suspicious, and the temperament of the lover is very like the style of a fairy master.

"God-given is back. King Ning looked up at Lin Qi with a smile on his face.

God-given is the word of Lin Qi.

It stands to reason that the words should have been taken at the age of 20 when the crown ceremony was celebrated.

But Lin Qi's name, King Ning wants to call him closer, and he has to call it 'outcast', which is a little too disrespectful, so he asked Lin Qi to take the word in advance.

Abandonment is the same as 'heaven-given'.

"Let the prince wait for a long time. ”

Lin Qi bowed his head slightly, walked to the second seat and sat down unhurriedly, and after the maidservant poured tea for him and the county lord, he said: "Lord Wang, Sister Pingle has already told me, this Taoist chief is going to change the fire Linglong, right?"

King Ning glanced at the county lord of Pingle who was sitting down with Lin Qi, and saw his daughter nodding slightly, so he smiled and introduced: "This is Pei Daochang of Cuining Mountain, who has been traveling all over the world all these years, and recently heard that there is a piece of strange jade 'Huo Linglong' with quite spiritual charm in our house, which happens to be his favorite, so he came to visit, and wanted to exchange it for a piece of mutton fat white jade in excellent condition, how about God's gift to you?"

Lin Qi understood in his heart that what King Ning was asking was what he wanted, and he was actually waiting for his answer to see if this Pei Daochang was really a master or a liar.

And the yellow-robed Taoist, from the moment Lin Qi entered the door, he looked at Lin Qi in a daze, and even forgot to put down the teacup in his hand, his eyes were full of surprise and envy, and for a while even King Ning's words were taken as a deaf ear.

Lin Qi had seen the same look many times.

Over the years, he has already guessed that what these masters are surprised by is probably his 'qualifications' and 'talents'.

"Daoist Pei?" King Ning found that this Daoist Pei was stunned, and he was also slightly stunned, and then said loudly: "Daoist Pei, is there anything wrong?"

The yellow-robed Taoist woke up like a dream, and after taking a deep look at Lin Qi, he sighed: "It's nothing, it's just that Poor Dao didn't expect that he could meet such a talented and beautiful jade as Ling Gongzi, but it's a pity that he was born at the wrong time......."

"It's a pity again?" Lin Qi was a little puzzled.

He deliberately hid his right hand in his sleeve, not revealing the Ugin ring on the thumb of his right hand, and the yellow-robed Taoist never noticed the Ugin ring, but he was still sighing pity?

Born ahead of one's time...... What does this mean?

King Ning couldn't help but ask with concern, "Is it the right time to be born?"

"No need. The yellow-robed Taoist shook his head slowly, gently put down the teacup in his hand, and said indifferently: "Since there is no fate, why bother asking? Otherwise, even if you know the truth, it will just be empty joy." ”

Seeing that the yellow-robed Daoist didn't want to say more, King Ning didn't continue to ask, but turned his head to look at Lin Qi and asked, "Heavenly Gift, are you willing to give up Huo Linglong to Daoist Pei?"

The deep meaning of his words is to ask Lin Qi: Is this Taoist really a master of the immortal family, or a charlatan?

"If the Dao Master can answer a few questions for me, it doesn't hurt to give Huo Linglong to the Dao Master. Lin Qi smiled.

He couldn't tell whether this yellow-robed Taoist was true or not, maybe the other party just inquired about his deeds over the years and deceived him?

However, he has a very simple way to verify it.

"If you have any doubts, you might as well tell us about them. The yellow-robed Taoist did not refuse.

"Does the Taoist know this ring?"

Lin Qi said, raising his right hand hidden in his sleeve, revealing the Ugin ring on his thumb.

"Huh? This ring...... This, this is!"

The yellow-robed Taoist was stunned at first, and then stared at the ring in shock, with a clear light in his eyes, as if he saw the extraordinaryness of this black gold ring.

Immediately, he swallowed his saliva, stood up like a pins and needles, faced Lin Qi, saluted respectfully, bowed his head and said: "It turned out to be the person chosen by the Lord, no wonder he has such talent, and there are many rudeness in the small way, and I hope that the little ancestor Haihan, don't worry about the mountains and wilderness like me." ”

It's the contemplator again...... Do you still call me Little Ancestor? Lin Qi's thoughts moved, and he remembered that seven years ago, the words of the dragon he met in Hantan during the spring hunt were also similar.

At this moment, he had already determined that the yellow-robed Daoist in front of him was probably really a member of the Immortal Family.

In his opinion, these immortal masters are nothing more than immortal cultivators, but they are rare and mysterious and abnormal, and they have little contact with the world, so they seem to be as ethereal as immortals.

"The Taoist is serious, why is it rude? Please sit down. ”

Lin Qi smiled faintly, still humble, and saw the yellow-robed Taoist sitting down uneasily, and then said: "I still have a few questions, I want to ask the Taoist chief, as long as the Taoist chief solves my doubts, the warm jade 'fire exquisite' should be offered with both hands." ”

The yellow-robed Daoist hesitated, but he still couldn't hold back his desire for Huo Linglong, and said with his head bowed: "Little Ancestor has any doubts, but it doesn't hurt to say it." ”

Lin Qi groaned for a while and said, "A few years ago, I also saw a lot of immortal masters, but for some reason, after they saw me, they would sigh the word 'pity', and the same is true for Dao Chang Fangcai, I don't know why it's a pity?"
