Chapter 278: The Crystal Palace at the bottom of the lake
readx;? Wang Loach's sudden appearance this time brought two important messages to Ye Xingyuan. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info [latest chapter reading] The first is that someone in the DPRK has broken through the bottom line, and he will do everything to put Ye Xing far away from death. The officialdom is overturned, and as soon as Si is concerned, Ye Xingyuan can only sigh for it.
The second is the movement of the Dinghe Dragon Palace, sure enough, after a few days, the Dragon Palace did not want to give up, and wanted to deal with Ye Xingyuan in front of Taixing Lake.
Taixing Lake is located in the branch of the Dinghe River and is a rare large freshwater lake in the north. The dragon king in the lake is called Taixingjun, who is the nephew of the dragon king of Dinghe, who is like a fire, and has been reprimanded for killing people for no reason, and is still to be punished.
In the matter of the black fish essence, it is inconvenient for the Dragon King of Dinghe to come forward, and it is very likely that this Taixingjun is looking for trouble.
Ye Xingyuan has the hole card of Jinyiwei in his hand, and he is not afraid of the Dragon Palace, so he doesn't care, on the contrary, he waits for the counterattack of the Dragon Palace, so as to solve the matter once and for all.
The merchants were ignorant, and only remembered that they seemed to have been attacked by robbers, but they did not remember anything after that. Fortunately, there was no loss of property, only a few dead dart masters were generously compensated and continued to move forward.
When they arrived at Taixing Lake, the merchants became vigilant again and reminded each other: "Passing by Taixing Lake, when you worship Taixing Jun, the gifts have been prepared, and they will be sent by the lake when the time comes." ”
Ye Xingyuan looked at the covetous appearance of the merchants, and sighed secretly in his heart. If the Dragon King of Dinghe is a vassal king with bad intentions, then this Taixing Jun is almost equivalent to a robber leader who sits on the ground and shares the spoils.
In recent years, all merchants who pass through Taixing Lake have to offer gifts that satisfy the lake. Otherwise, the wind and waves will be blown, and the people and goods will be swept into the lake, which will be worse than the robbers. The arrogance of the Dragon Palace can be seen, and the madness of the black fish spirit is by no means an isolated phenomenon.
It's a pity that killing a black fish spirit is still within Ye Xingyuan's ability, but if he wants to deal with Taixingjun who was enthroned by the imperial court, he really can't catch it, and he hates it in his heart.
Lu Shiniang had already sent someone to the lake to investigate, and she came back and reported in a low voice: "The caravan has prepared a lot of gifts, Taixingjun is not angry, and now the lake is calm." But since Wang Loach came to sue. When the adults pass by, there will be a change. ”
Ye Xingyuan said casually: "After Taixing Lake, it is Tongguan, and it is time to part ways with this caravan, so as not to affect them." Since they have enough gifts, let them go first. Let's slowly follow behind and see what happens to this Taixingjun. ”
Ye Xingyuan is not afraid of Taixing Lake Longjun, these merchants can't afford to be provoked, they take Ye Xingyuan through the west of the river by the way, and there is no need to drag them into the troubled waters.
Lu Shiniang took the order. He went to say goodbye to the leader of the caravan, and said that Ye Xingyuan still wanted to enjoy the scenery of Taixing Lake, and let them take the first step and meet again in Tongguan. The merchants were kind-hearted and persuaded one after another: "Don't be greedy for scenery, these four hundred miles of Taixing Lake are certainly steaming and cloudy, but the dragon clan is not easy to provoke, it is better to pass quickly." ”
Ye Xingyuan thanked them, but said that he was a scholar with no long things and two sleeves, and Taixingjun would not have any ideas. Give them peace of mind.
The merchants thought about it, Taixingjun just loves money, and there is no record of harming the readers, they are worried about the safety of the goods, after a few words, they hurriedly crossed Taixing Lake, and went straight to the direction of Tongguan.
Ye Xingyuan Shi Ran walked along Taixing Lake, looking from afar, only to see the vast smoke and waves, worthy of being the largest lake in the north. The water of the lake is slightly muddy. It has a dull yellow color. There is a stone island in the lake, like a turtle, which has been washed by the lake and still stands proudly.
Lu Shiniang said: "This is the suppression of the Xuan Turtle. Taixingjun is a body of sin, restricted by the heavens, and cannot appear as a dragon. It will take a hundred years before the stone turtle can be removed. ”
Ye Xingyuan sneered: "This kind of evil dragon is still so arrogant, is it true that no one in the world can cure him?"
Lu Shiniang was slightly flustered and glanced at the lake. He also persuaded: "My lord should be cautious, now he is on someone else's land, and it is difficult to clean up if he causes trouble." ”
Lu Shiniang has now changed her initial opinion of Ye Xingyuan, hoping to be promoted by holding her thighs. In her opinion, Dinghe Dragon Palace is a behemoth, and although Jinyiwei is not afraid, he does not have to take the initiative to provoke.
At this moment, Taixing Lake suddenly split on both sides, and a yaksha came out of the lake, and shouted to Ye Xingyuan: "Are you Ye Xingyuan, the champion of today's department? I heard that you are very domineering, and you have slashed the madness on the Dinghe River? My Taixingjun wants to see you, come with me!"
Yaksha reached out and wanted to grab Ye Xingyuan. How could Lu Shiniang allow him to be so rude, with a coquettish sound, a silk silk appeared in his sleeves, grabbed Yaksha's thick arm, and shouted: "Lord Ye is the champion of the dynasty, and from the six-rank official body, he is the Dragon Palace, how can he be forced?"
Yaksha was impatient, his right arm struggled, but he couldn't break away, and said angrily: "In this Taixing Lake boundary, even the prefect has to bow his head, and a passing prefect is nothing?"
This north is really different from the south, the dragon king of Dinghe is up and down, and Taixingjun is so arrogant. Ye Xing recalled that the Hanjiang Dragon Palace, which was at the same level or even slightly higher than the Taixing Lake Dragon Palace, did not dare to do so, and it had always been an equal friend with the Hanjiang Mansion and the Zhang Governor's Mansion.
How could he have thought that the Yaksha of the Dragon Palace here, and dare not look at the prefect in his eyes, so he said in a deep voice: "Although Taixing Jun has been canonized, the place under his control is only a lake, how dare he underestimate the court officials? Aren't you afraid of God's curse?"
Dealing with this kind of rude person, Ye Xingyuan was also unceremoniously, and he used the Pure Heart Holy Sound Divine Power in his words. Yaksha only felt that Ye Xingyuan's words were like rolling thunder, and the rumble shook his eardrums, and he couldn't help but feel a sense of panic in his heart.
His body shook, and he knew that he had been tricked, and his heart was horrified. The Pure Heart Holy Sound is just a trick of Xiucai, how can it be effective for the high-grade aquarium, this champion is really not simple.
Then he stiffly said: "The dragon clan was born by the mandate of heaven, traveling clouds and rain, with immeasurable merits, not punished by heaven, and naturally superior to others. Ye Zhuangyuan, please take a moment, please go into the water!"
Although he still insisted on the arrogant tone, his tone was a little softer after all. Ye Xingyuan nodded and said indifferently: "It's just right, I also have something to see Taixingjun, and lead the way." ”
Lu Shiniang took the ribbon, and Yaksha turned her head stupidly, and walked along the separated lake first. Ye Xingyuan Shi Ran followed behind him, and saw that the lake on both sides seemed to be blocked by a transparent barrier, although it roared and surged, not a drop could flow in. The swimming fish shuttle, the water and grass rippling, very interesting.
The supernatural powers of the water tribe are also quite ingenious, and now Ye Xingyuan has completed his studies, and he is reasonable. If he is willing to delve into the nature of water, he can also learn this magic power of water, but he doesn't have to spend this effort.
After walking a short distance, he saw the underwater crystal palace shining brightly, and Yaksha walked to the corner gate, turned his head and bowed and said, "Champion, please come in, Taixingjun is waiting for you inside." ”
Ye Xingyuan stopped, closed his eyes slightly, and did not say a word. Lu Shi Niang knew his thoughts, so she shouted: "Although Taixing Jun's throne is high, Lord Ye is an official of the imperial court, representing the dignity of the imperial court, how can there be any reason to go to the corner door?
Yaksha said with a smile: "The rules of the Taixing Lake Crystal Palace, only when a higher-level dragon monarch arrives here, will the middle gate be opened. The rest of the talents in the world all walked through the corner gate, that is, Yueqing and Changyou, the first talents in the Central Plains that day, and they never walked through the main gate. ”
Ye Xingyuan's eyes were like cold electricity, and he swept over him and said: "When Yueqing and Youlong Palace were in the palace, they were still raised people, and they had never been awarded an official by the imperial court. What's more, he is swimming in the East China Sea Dragon Palace, and the one who receives him is the ancestor of the dragon family, the Dragon King of the East China Sea, not just a lake king!"
Yueqing and You Dragon Palace are allusions to the Xuanyuan world, and it is rumored that the Dragon Palace loves talents and is good friends with talents. Yue Qinghe is a hundred years ago the great talent of the great celebrity, one day drunk in the East China Sea sitting idle, the dragon king took a big turtle to take him into the Dragon Palace, invited him to the banquet, let him see the treasure of the Dragon Palace, and the dragon girl H, enjoy the boundless wealth.
Later, Yueqinghe returned to the land, stunned, and wrote "Dragon Palace Fu" to praise the wonderful scenery of the East China Sea Crystal Palace, which was handed down.
The down-and-out literati were very envious, and to this day, there are still many people who deliberately go to the East China Sea to sit and drink, looking forward to being favored by the Dragon King, and going to the rich and gentle township to have a visit. But in Ye Xingyuan's opinion, this is nothing at all, and it can even be regarded as a means of propaganda, it is nothing more than the Dragon Palace paying money and people to buy Yueqing and an article.
Although this Yueqinghe has the name of a talented man, the imperial examination is not smooth, and he is even more lazy after a visit to the Dragon Palace, and it was not until more than ten years later that he finally won the Jinshi. He has only been an official until the state capital in his life, and he is more of an idle job, and he has never made any contribution to the country and the people.
What made him famous was only this "Dragon Palace Fu". How can this person's identity and status be compared with today's Ye Xingyuan?
In fact, if Ye Xingyuan's title is taken out completely, it is also very scary, he is the champion of the big three yuan and the fourth year, from the Liupin Hanlin Academy to Qiongguan Zhi County, Jinyi Wei is a hundred households, and Yin Fengen is a cavalry captain, this momentum can be compared with a single person?
What's more, Taixingjun's Dragon Palace is also a few levels different from the Dragon King of the East China Sea, so it is really inappropriate to compare Yaksha with Yueqing and deeds.
Yaksha was originally blue-faced, and listening to Ye Xingyuan's words, it was even more blue and black, but he couldn't refute it. He led Ye Xingyuan to the corner gate to humiliate him, but he didn't expect Ye Xingyuan to be neither humble nor arrogant, he was speechless, so he could only swallow his anger and take Ye Xingyuan to the main gate again, beat the fish drum, and open the door to greet him.
Taixingjun was sitting in the hall, when he heard the drums outside, his brows furrowed, and he said angrily: "Who is allowed to open the main gate?
A person next to him smiled lightly: "Taixingjun don't want to be angry, this is the first salute and then the soldiers." Although Ye Xingyuan's identity is lower than that of the Dragon King, he represents the imperial court and cannot be neglected, but in addition to the number of etiquette, there are still legal principles. As long as you listen to me, you will be able to share the worries of the old dragon king of Dinghe!"
He was crowned with a broad belt, the folding fan shook gently, and his face was calm, it was the hidden Confucian Yuwen Jing who followed Ye Xingyuan out of Beijing. (To be continued.) )
