Chapter 1: Strange Taoists

Within Kyoto, Sky Tower. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

This is the place where people who come and go from Kyoto welcome and feast, and of course, it is also for the common people, merchants and even officials to eat, drink and eat. The Sky Tower is three floors high, the first floor is mostly for civilians, the second floor is for the children of wealthy families such as merchants, and the third floor is mostly for high-ranking officials and nobles, each floor is active and large, and it is quite a magnificent building in Kyoto.

At this time, in an inconspicuous corner on the first floor, there was a middle-aged Taoist dressed in a white-washed coarse sermon coat with his hair tied up, a rag package was placed on the table, a canvas bamboo cane was leaning on the side of the chair, and the eight big characters of "Doctor's Benevolence, Rejuvenation Skill" were written on it, a few dishes of light side dishes, a pot of warm wine, a smile between his eyebrows, and he was drinking comfortably.

Not far away, there was a young man in Tsing Yi, who was staring at him tightly, looking a little nervous.

"That little brother, you're tired of standing, why don't you come and sit down" It was the man who asked the little guy out loud.

The little guy in Tsing Yi was stunned for a moment, touched his head, stepped forward with a little embarrassment, and said in a very low voice, "The immortal master is polite, I am a descendant of the Zhennan Wangfu, and I am invited by the order of the housekeeper, I don't know ...... immortal master."

"Hehe" The man smiled slightly, and took a sip of wine to himself, "It's a good thing that someone invites me, but the poor Dao hasn't finished drinking the wine, and the dish hasn't moved a bite, don't hurry, don't hurry" said, he really picked up the chopsticks, put the vegetables in his mouth and chewed them carefully.

The little guy in Tsing Yi was stunned again, but he patiently said, "Immortal master, don't blame the villain for being reckless, it's really an important matter in the house, and I have no choice but to hope that the immortal master will go with the villain." ”

"You also have an emergency, and he also has an emergency, so who is not in a hurry," he said, and pointed to a sturdy man at the table not far away.

The little guy was about to say something, but was interrupted by the Taoist, "Everything in the world has a reason, and you can't be in a hurry" and then took a sip of the wine in the cup, "I have solved countless urgent things, some things, if you are really anxious to the depths, you will have a solution," said, and his eyes moved to the door.

Seeing this, the little guy also looked over, only to see an ordinary carriage parked at the door, and there was an old man standing next to him, it was Fu Bo, the little guy was just about to come forward to meet him, and he couldn't help but see Fu Bo wave his hand, and then stopped there.

Not long after, a man wrapped in a gray robe got off the car, and his majesty was fully displayed when he walked, and the little guy was stunned, secretly thinking that it was not simple to come, and he didn't make a sound at the moment, so he got up and stood aside.

The Taoist at the table was unmoved, smiled lightly, and drank the warm wine in the cup.

After a while, the gray-robed figure came to the front and lifted the brim of his hat, it was Li Yiru, the wife of the king of Zhennan, who looked at the Taoist "Immortal Master ......" in front of her.

"Hehe" The Taoist waved his hand slightly, "I'm not an immortal master, all I can do is cure the sick and save people, little Dao'er." ”

"The immortal master is modest, no one in the entire Daluo Dynasty knows the methods of the immortal master, you deserve to be called this title," Li Yiru said respectfully.

"Madame is gracious"

Li Yiru was slightly shocked in her heart, "Dare to ask the immortal master, but do you know what the little girl is doing here?"

"I know, I don't know," the Taoist shook his head slightly, his expression extremely indifferent.

"Forgive the little woman for being stupid, and ask the immortal master to make it clear. ”

Before they knew it, the people had finished their light meals and had left, and the place where the two were talking was empty.

"Madame has found me this time, it is nothing more than looking for a doctor, so she must feel that she is suffering from a stubborn illness, but ...... Madame is afraid that she will be disappointed. ”

Li Yiru was stunned when she heard this, and suddenly felt a panic in her heart, and asked in a trembling voice, "I don't know what the immortal master means." ”

"What I mean is exactly what you understand," he said, still drinking and eating indifferently, without a sound for a long time. Li Yiru was like a thunderbolt, and suddenly her face turned pale, and she looked at Lao Dao in a daze and couldn't speak.

"Madame doesn't have to be like this, it seems that what you understand is not what I mean, haha" Lao Dao laughed heartily, "Okay, let me tell you, Madame has no stubborn disease, how can I cure it." ”

"What?" Li Yiru was shocked, a little hard to believe "Then why do I ......" Speaking of this, her face was slightly embarrassed, and she didn't know how to tell.

"Hehe, everything in the world happens for a reason, and you can't be in a hurry, Madam might as well go back to recuperate, and he will naturally have results in the future. ”

Li Yiru was half-convinced, her expression was in a trance, and when the Taoist saw this, she sighed imperceptibly, "That's it, if Madame can trust the old Tao, I have a medicine for peace of mind here, and I will give it to Madame," he said, probing his arms with his hand, taking out a light cyan mellow pill and handing it to her.

Li Yiru solemnly took it with both hands, and her fingers couldn't help but touch the palm of the Taoist, but she didn't care at all, staring at the pill extremely cautiously.

Just when her fingers touched and her palm touched, she saw that the person's face was pale, and it seemed to be extremely solemn, this was the first time in this period of time that Lao Dao's face changed, and he immediately returned to his previous appearance of being light and smiling.

"Xie Xianshi's gift of medicine, I don't know if this is ......"

"Ordinary meditation things, not very valuable, Mrs. don't have to take it to heart, Lao Dao said before, Mrs. has no stubborn disease, naturally does not need me to heal" Speaking of this, Lao Dao paused "Everything in the world has a reason, and it can't be rushed." After saying this, Lao Dao seemed to hesitate for a moment, then sighed imperceptibly, reached into his arms again, took out an object, and put it on the table.

"Lao Dao has no long things, today and Mrs. want to talk very happily, this bag will be given to Mrs., inside is some of Lao Dao's views, Mrs. can wait for the cause and effect to appear, open it and take a look. ”

Li Yiru was stunned for a moment, and after a while, she reacted, and hurriedly asked, "What is cause and effect...... Unexpectedly, when she looked up, there was no Taoist figure in front of her, just a few pieces of broken silver on the table, swaying gently, and on the first floor of the big Yunxiao Building, there were no diners.

Li Yiru was startled, turned around and saw Fu Bo and the little maid standing in front of the door, pedestrians on the street, very lively, and sighed at the moment The immortal spell, no longer stayed, got up and left here.

At the corner of the street not far from Yunxiao Tower, the old road wearing a road uniform, holding a canvas bamboo cane in his hand, and carrying a dilapidated cloth bag appeared there, watching his wife get into the carriage and walk slowly, his brows couldn't help frowning.

"It's really strange, I didn't expect that there are people in this mundane country that I can't guess," and then he was slightly stunned, "No, if it's not this woman, then who could it be......" Lao Dao thought hard, and in the blink of an eye, his figure disappeared again, as if it had never appeared.

......

......

Time has passed, and the encounter of that day seems more like a dream to Li Yiru today, because she may know it, but she can't figure it out.

The cyan pill had already been taken when she returned home, and she didn't feel anything else except that she was a little refreshed. Now at the beginning of winter, she has long been dressed in brocade and mink, looking at the bleak scenery outside the window, she shivered unnaturally, and her heart was even more cold.

"Alas...... I'm afraid I'm going to come back soon," Li Yiru looked lonely, "Liu Lian'er's children can already crawl, but I hate my uncompetitive belly" sighed, her jade hand kept rubbing her flat lower abdomen, her face was full of sadness, and she almost burst into tears.

As a woman, no matter how prominent her identity is, whether she is the daughter of Dazai or the wife of King Zhennan, she is just a woman, obviously the wife of Yang Wenchang and Ming Media, but she has to be said to be an extremely tragic thing to watch her sisters give birth to children one after another a few years later, and leave a legacy for her husband's family.

"Madame, ma'am, good news," suddenly came a slightly old, but energetic voice.

Li Yiru was stunned, and looked out of the door in a daze, but it was the old housekeeper Fubo, "What good news, so eager?"

"The master is back!"

"What, Husband is back?" Li Yiru couldn't believe it at all, her little face flushed because of the hurry was faintly steaming in this cold weather, "Where is it, take me to see him." ”

Fu Bo smiled slightly, "Madame, don't worry, there is news that the lord has just entered the city now, and he is going to meet the emperor in person and report on the border of the Southern Regions in the past year, and he will definitely arrive home later." ”

"Really, great, great" Li Yiru looked excited, her body trembled, "Quick, come on, change clothes for me, I want to prepare to welcome King Nan" After saying that, her body returned to the inner room very quickly, and was waited for by the maid to change her clothes.

Seeing this, Fu Bo sighed softly and turned around to leave Ning Xinyuan.

Kyoto of the Daluo Dynasty, Tenra Castle.

A middle-aged man who was seven feet tall and had a beautiful face, but it was difficult to hide the aura of murder, dressed in golden armor, rode on a tall and strong white horse first. Behind him followed by a group of foot soldiers, all of them were lightly armoured, their bodies were straight, holding the long knife at their waists with one hand, and at a glance, they were afraid that there were thousands of people, and the pace was extremely unified.

"Wow, this is that general, what a strong killing atmosphere, what a dagger and a tiger and wolf army. ”

"Shhh ”

"It's really amazing, it's so majestic" The people next to him couldn't help but admire when they saw it. Some of the yellow flower girls covered their faces, only revealing a pair of phoenix eyes, as if they were extremely shy to peek at, and the deer in their hearts was jumping around, so handsome is the person admired by these women who have not been out of the cabinet.

The army marched slowly, suddenly, Yang Wenchang waved his hand, and the soldiers immediately stood still, "Soldiers, this is Kyoto, there is no need to follow, where is General Wang?"

Next to the "last general", a large man with a strong figure came out of the crowd and knelt on one knee in front of the horse.

"Wang Shijun listened to the order and led all the soldiers to report to the military department, without delay, and the king wanted to enter the capital to face the saint. ”

"The last general listens to the order, all the soldiers, follow me" said with a wave of his hand, thousands of pacemakers immediately changed direction, followed Wang Shijun and walked towards the military headquarters, "the last general retreated" After saying a military salute, he turned around and left

Yang Wenchang nodded slightly, and also drove his horse towards the place where the palace was located.

......

......

Daluo Imperial Palace, inside the Imperial Study.

At this time, it was close to noon, and Emperor Luo Tian was writing in the imperial study, and his spirit was flying.

"Your Majesty, Yang Wenchang, the king of Zhennan, has returned and wants to meet Your Majesty," a small eunuch bowed down and said respectfully.

"Oh, my brother is back, please," he said, putting down his pen and staring at the door.

After a while, Yang Wenchang entered the room and knelt on one knee, "Minister Yang Wenchang sees the emperor." ”

"Hurry up, Wenchang, you've worked hard this year. ”

"Your Majesty's words are serious, for the sake of Da Luo Jiangshan Sheji, the minister is not hard. ”

"Hehe, okay, put aside all the red tape first, and tell me how the border has been in the past year. ”

Yang Wenchang straightened out his thoughts, "Back to the emperor, there is no war at the border of the Southern Regions, the people live in peace, the merchants are happy, and the small-scale barbarian rebellion has been quelled. ”

"Well, that's very good, I'm thankful for having the King of the South here. ”

"The minister didn't dare to ask for credit," Yang Wenchang replied neither humbly nor arrogantly, and then looked a little hesitant, as if he wanted to say something.

"Oh, what does the King of the South have to tell me?"

"This ......"

"Understood, you want to go home quickly, right, alas......" Luo Tian sighed, "Let's go back and see, poor Yiru, she was also stunning back then, but she didn't expect to have such a deficiency, but fortunately, the other two ladies of yours gave birth to Lin'er, and they can be regarded as having blood." ”

When Yang Wenchang heard this, his expression was also slightly dark, feeling sorry for his wife, distressed, even though the eldest husband has three wives and four concubines in this era, but as an upright soldier, the commander, what he cares about most is the wife who is married, and that feeling is far from being replaced by a few concubines.

"Emperor Xie, the minister retires," he said, respectfully retreated to the door, and turned to leave.

"Ru'er, I'm sorry for you, I'll go home for my husband......"
