Chapter 40: Zhao Mansion

Zhao Ran went to the Honglai Inn in Xunyang Town, apologized to Zhang Luo, and said that he would stay in Lushan for a few days and let Zhang Luo go first. Zhang Luo said: "It's okay, I'll wait for the abbot here, it's only a few days, and I can't delay any major events." ”

Zhao Ran stayed in the Yunshui Hall under the view of Jian Lonely for three days, and finally received a flying talisman from Jingxing Monk.

opened the first letter, it was Zhao Zhixing's reply to him, to the effect that it was nothing more than to thank Zhao Ran for his concern in Lushan, indicating that his home was indeed in Jiujiang Mansion, and it happened that May 26 was his mother's birthday. Zhao Ran will first ask Zhao Ran to pay the money in advance, and then return it after the meeting.

The letter listed several kinds of food that Zhao Zhixing's mother liked, all of which cost a few silver, and the only thing that was slightly more expensive was nothing more than a few mountain ginseng plants.

The other is Zhao Zhixing's family letter, Zhao Ran is not easy to open and read, of course, he doesn't care about the content of this family letter.

After getting the letter, Zhao Ran immediately went down the mountain, Lushan was very close to Jiujiang Mansion, and with his foot strength, he arrived in more than half an hour.

Jiujiang is the leading city of the Ming Dynasty, standing side by side with the north and south of the two capitals, and is still above Beijing. Compared with the two capitals in the north and south, there is less of the majestic and huge palace city, but there are more mansions of wealthy families, and the high roads on Lushan, whether monks or laymen, have set up big mansions in Jiujiang and settled their families in the city.

The high roads of Lushan may not have built a special place in the capital, but the high-ranking officials of the imperial court in the capital must have purchased a house in Jiujiang. Therefore, the rich people in Jiujiang City gather, which is simply the prosperity of the Ming Dynasty and even the world.

Walking through the bustling city, Zhao Ran walked to the quiet Gantang Lake, found an inn to settle down, and went to find Zhao Zhixing's house.

The large courtyards by Gantang Lake are adjacent to the lake and are hidden among the green forests.

Everything looked ordinary, but when Zhao Ran opened the Heavenly Eye, he could feel that the operation of the Heaven and Earth Qi Machine here was extremely complicated, and it should be a powerful magic circle set up in the middle.

Zhao Ran came to a large mansion, and there was a gold-lettered plaque hanging on the seven-step high gate, on which were written two big characters "Zhao Mansion".

Handing over the door sticker, indicating his intention, Zhao Ran sat in the gatehouse and waited, and after a while, a housekeeper came out to greet him, leading him through several floors of courtyard and sitting in the flower hall.

After drinking a few teas, I heard the sound of footsteps, and several maids helped a dignified-looking and richly dressed woman to come in, and Zhao Ran hurriedly got up to wait.

After the woman sat down, she smiled and asked, "The Taoist chief is the abbot of the Wuji Courtyard in Guyang County?"

Zhao Ran hurriedly replied: "Poor Zhao Zhiran, I have seen Mrs. ”

Mrs. Zhao said: "Don't be polite, I once saw my son's family mention the Taoist chief, saying that you two are friends." ”

Zhao Ran said: "Exactly." Xiaodao went to Lushan because of the incident, and passed by the way to transfer the family letter for Senior Brother Zhao. By the way, I heard that Mrs. will be going to have a birthday in a few days, first, to present the birthday gift of Senior Brother Zhao, and secondly, to express my heart by the way. ”

As he spoke, he wiped out two baskets from his wrench, one was a gift entrusted by Zhao Zhixing to the agent, and the other was his own. At the same time, he handed over Zhao Zhixing's letter.

Mrs. Zhao read the letter and said with a smile: "This kid has a heart." He looked at the things in Zhao Ran's basket again, shook his head and said, "Since you are my son's best friend, why bother giving such a heavy gift." ”

Zhao Ran hurriedly said: "Madame's birthday, it's too cold and not beautiful." It's just a little heart, and when I came to the door for the first time, I hope that Mrs. won't refuse. ”

Mrs. Zhao asked, "When will the Taoist go back to Lushan? If you are not in a hurry, you will rest in the mansion for two days? I will send someone to take you around Jiujiang City?"

People are just polite, Zhao Ran must not be able to climb along the pole, so he said: "I found an inn in the city, it is also clean, and there are still some things to do in the city these days, so I thank Mrs. for her kindness." If Madame has any business, you can go to the inn and find me. As he spoke, he informed Mrs. Zhao of the location of the inn.

Mrs. Zhao nodded: "It's okay, then you do it first." Then serve tea to the guests.

This is the end of a simple visit, and next, Zhao Ran went back to the inn to wait for news. Zhao Ran didn't know what was written in Zhao Zhixing's family book, so he didn't know if he could get exact news. He planned to wait in Jiujiang City for three days, if there was no news, it would mean that this road was impassable, either Zhao Dadu had no intention of summoning him, or Mrs. Zhao didn't want to pass it on at all. If that's the case, there's no better way to do it, so I can only ask Dongfang Li again, and let Dongfang Li help me inquire.

As a result, in the evening of the next day, Zhao Ran waited at the inn for someone from Zhao's mansion.

It was Mrs. Zhao's personal maid who came, Zhao Ran saw it beside Mrs. Zhao that day, she said to Zhao Ran: "Madame is a little unwell, I heard that Abbot Zhao is a monk in the pavilion, I wonder if I can go to check Madame's pulse?"

After entering the path of cultivation, he is not a doctor but also a doctor, and there is no problem with general headache and brain fever, and he can basically get rid of the disease.

Zhao Ran asked, "What's wrong with Madame?"

The maid said, "It's not a big deal, maybe I have a cold and I don't eat much." ”

Zhao Ran understood that this was an excuse to let himself come to the door again, and immediately followed the maid to Zhao's mansion.

gave Mrs. Zhao a pulse, symbolically prescribed a prescription for self-cultivation, and Mrs. Zhao expressed her gratitude to Zhao Ran and kept him for dinner. This time, Zhao Ran was not polite and agreed.

Zhao Ran was eating dinner alone in the hall, and there was no one to accompany him, only an old servant was waiting in the corner. He ate slowly, patiently. He was a monk who had entered the Yellow Crown Realm, and his ear power was excellent, so he heard a commotion in the courtyard outside, and someone was saying "I'm back".

Zhao Ran calmed down and continued to wait, and after more than half an hour, Mrs. Zhao's personal maid came in and said to Zhao Ran, "Abbot Zhao has finished eating?"

Zhao Ran nodded: "It's already full." ”

The maid smiled and said, "Please come with me, abbot." ”

Zhao Ran got up and followed the maid, walked through a few verandahs, and entered a study without knowing a few turns. The candles in the study were as bright as day, and there were many books on the shelves next to the walls.

A fifty-year-old Gao Dao was dressed in a cyan regular suit, sitting behind a bookcase, looking vaguely similar to Zhao Zhixing.

After the maid went out, she closed the door, and Zhao Ran stepped forward to check her head: "I've seen Daduguan." ”

This person is the father of Jian Lianguan and Zhao Zhixing, Zhao Yunyi.

Zhao Ran didn't know much about this Zhao Daduguan, only that he was from Sichuan Province, and he was the highest-level Taoist priest who walked out of Sichuan Province in the jungle of the Ten Directions.
