169. Puzzle
With the nine Xuanlong disappearing, the foundation building of the new sages of the Heavenly Star Gate tonight is temporarily over. The onlookers who were suppressed by Tang Ling outside the building did not come forward to find out after feeling that the coercion on their bodies had dissipated, but quietly stayed away with interest. After all, they all knew that it was not only the Tianxingmen heir who appeared tonight, but also a mysterious master of unknown depth who was present to sweep the formation-he could instantly suppress dozens of mortal cultivators, not to mention the existence of far beyond the realm of the mundane world and among the four clans of gods, demons, fairies and demons, they were mere mortals, and they did not directly offend the other party's ability.
At this moment, above the ninth layer, Wang Yueyao had recovered from her meditation. Because she had just finished laying the foundation, she was not half tired, but compared with Yun'er, who had been waiting by her side all night, she was even more energetic. Seeing her energetic appearance, Tang Ling gave a few more instructions, and then let her meditate alone and consolidate her cultivation again.
After all, although Wang Yueyao has Yuan Tiangang's century-old cultivation, her own foundation is still unstable after all, if she fails to consolidate it well, this cultivation will not only not be able to bring benefits to her, but she may also go mad at any time.
When the east turned white, Tang Ling took Yun'er and Wang Yueyao back to the Wang family's mansion, and Wang Jianzhou had been waiting for a long time. After breakfast, Yun'er, who had not slept all night, had already gotten into the quilt that had been arranged, and Wang Yueyao returned to her residence to continue to understand the experience gained from last night's cultivation. As for Tang Ling, he was invited to his study by Wang Jianzhou, who was full of entanglement.
Frankly speaking, except for a few books of the Four Books and Five Classics on the old bookcase, Wang Jianzhou's study did not match his identity as a waiter in the Ministry of Rites, and the tables and chairs were just inferior products that ordinary people could equip. Only the set of tea sets and a few cups of tea on the table of the Eight Immortals can show that there is still a bit of the charm that a scholar should have. At this moment, facing Tang Ling, the waiter of the Ministry of Rites, who is known for his fiery personality, has shown a little restraint: "Wind ...... Sir, the humble house is shabby, and I hope you don't dislike it. ”
"Mountain traveler, what dislike will there be?" Tang Ling was indifferent, picked up one of the cups of tea, tasted the fragrance of tea for a while, and his eyes were already a little playful: "The squire of Jianzhou is so restrained, can it be said that he still can't treat me as an ordinary passerby?"
Hearing Tang Ling's words, Wang Jianzhou suddenly smiled bitterly: "The prestige of the Fengyun King is like thunder, how dare Jianzhou be rude......?
Tang Ling was unwilling to continue to play dumb riddles with Wang Jianzhou, and drank tea, and already said what the other party was thinking: "It must be related to Yueyao, right?"
Although Wang Jianzhou is famous for his fiery temperament and impulsiveness in the court, in some things, he will still be swayed by the gentleness of Wenchen, especially in front of the Fengyun King whose status and prestige are even far better than today's sons, that Confucian temperament has been undoubtedly revealed, if Tang Ling also cares about him here, I am afraid that Wang Jianzhou will not be able to say the focus of this invitation for three days and three nights. Now that Tang Ling pointed it out directly, Wang Jianzhou couldn't continue to detour, so he had to say straight to the point: "Jianzhou heard last night that the new sage of Tianxingmen appeared in the stargazing tower, attracting a group of cultivators to visit, I don't know if that new sage is ......."
Tang Ling sniffed the fragrance of tea in his hand again, and replied indifferently: "That Tianxingmen heir is none other than Yue Yao. ”
The Heavenly Star Sect is also rare among cultivators, although ordinary mortals have also heard the deeds of the predecessors of the Heavenly Star Sect, they do not know that they are the most mysterious sect from the mortal cultivation world. Although Wang Jianzhou is not familiar with it, fortunately he still knows a little about it, after last night's rumors, he linked the "new sage" with Wang Yueyao, and now out of concern for his daughter, he asked Tang Ling for details, Tang Ling naturally did not hide it, a few plain words, he had told the other party all the information he knew, which naturally included Wang Yueyao's possible achievements and hardships in the future.
After listening to Tang Ling's introduction, Wang Jianzhou's face actually had a gloomy look, and then he fell into a deep groan, so that he still didn't realize that the tea in front of him had been cold for a long time. After a long time, he asked again: "In this way, Yueyao's future achievements will be unparalleled?"
If she were to step into the whirlpool of the world, she would never do nothing, but if she insisted on living in seclusion, it would be the same as before. Tang Ling said calmly, "The reason why I introduced Yueyao to Yuan Tiangang is that I also have my selfish intentions, and I don't want my old friend to be cut off from the world." But from another point of view, although Yue Yao may also have the fate of carrying the blessings of the common people now, she has the protection of nine Heavenly Star Xuanlong, and there are very few existences in the world that can harm her. ”
"Jianzhou would rather the little girl be unknown in the future, at least so that she can be at peace for the rest of her life. Wang Jianzhou was stupid, and then picked up the tea that had cooled in front of him and took a sip. It's just that this simple action has made Tang Ling see a little strange, and immediately asked, "Jianzhou Shilang, is there anything that will be unfavorable to Yueyao?"
"I don't know if the Fengyun King has ever heard of An Lushan?" Wang Jianzhou pondered for a while before asking.
Tang Ling replied: "I held a wedding banquet in Luoyang before, and he was one of the guests. I heard that he is a Hu man, who is also the envoy of the three provinces, and has a heavy army, and he is one of the most important people today. ”
"Yesterday, Jianzhou entered the palace at the behest of the imperial court and met with him. Wang Jianzhou's face was full of distress, "He praised Yueyao in front of me for her talent and appearance, and proposed a family matter to me. ”
When Tang Ling heard this, he also came to his senses: "An Lushan should be proposing marriage for one of his juniors, right? I don't know which talent has the honor to be favored by him?"
Wang Jianzhou's face was still bitter: "The junior in An Lu Mountain Pass is the lord of Qixia Fort, Duan Huanshan. ”
This time, Tang Ling was a little surprised when she heard it. Putting down the teacup in his hand, his tone became serious for the first time: "You agreed?"
For Duan Huanshan, Tang Ling didn't have much good feelings. This is not because he controls Qixia Fort and the sea of blood is opposed, but because Tang Ling met him in Luoyang that day, the so-called "Collecting Yin and Supplementing Yang" technique has made Tang Ling not have a good impression of this Qixia Fort Castle master.
Although Wang Jianzhou didn't know Tang Ling's opinion on Duan Huanshan, he also seemed to have a sense of resistance to An Lushan's "proposal", not to mention that Duan Huanshan's romantic reputation made Wang Jianzhou respect him, and immediately shook his head and said: "Jianzhou did not reply to An Lushan in person, after all, marriage is related to the happiness of the little girl's life, if she agrees rashly, it may not be a good thing for Yueyao." ”
