Tang's dining table

When Yin Erhu arrived in Luoyang City, Xue Changfeng was still cowering in Aunt Qian's place, because Helan Minzhi's people not only went to Honglu Temple, but also searched for him all over the world in Luoyang City.

Yin Erhu was also very surprised after seeing Xue Changfeng's current appearance. He also couldn't figure out why Xue Changfeng had turned into a swarthy savage long ago, and why He Lan Minzhi could still recognize him at a glance.

You must know that when he fooled He Lan Minzhi in Chang'an, Xue Changfeng was a handsome scholar. Although he could not be said to be as handsome as Yushu Linfeng, he was almost the same. When the brothers went to the brothel to play tricks together, he was the one surrounded by the most kabuki actors.

Now, the skin has become black and rough, the hands and feet are deformed, there is no hair on the head, and the scalp is black.

As for him, he didn't recognize Xue Changfeng for a long time, and finally he looked vaguely in his eyebrows.

"How much does He Lan Minzhi love you that he can remember your appearance so clearly and be able to recognize you in the busy city just by looking at your back?"

Xue Changfeng sighed and said, "Can you talk about the business?"

Yin Erhu waved his hand towards Mrs. Qian and motioned for her to step back. He found a stool to sit down, holding on to the table and said softly: "Since you have already quit, why do you still want to come in?"

Xue Changfeng said: "It's too lonely to be alone."

Yin Erhu smiled and said: "I remember that you didn't like having too many people around you before. For this reason, you went all the way south to Yazhou. I heard that it was the end of the world and there were few people, which should satisfy you very much. "

Xue Changfeng stood up and said: "Since I can't go back and you don't want to kill me, can I just live my own life?"

Yin Erhu nodded and said, "That's how it should be. This courtyard will be left to you, and we'll leave."

After Yin Erhu finished speaking, he picked up the horizontal knife placed on the table and called out to Aunt Qian. In an instant, Xue Changfeng was the only one left in the originally ordinary small courtyard.

Xue Changfeng's sudden appearance was beyond Yin Erhu's expectation. He really wanted to recruit this former brother, but he didn't dare. There were many brothers in Luoyang who relied on the monarch for their lives. If Xue Changfeng had Changes, he didn't dare think about what would happen to the brothers here.

Over the years, Baiqisi has never given up looking for them... The people of Baiqisi thought that the Xianyang Bridge explosion a long time ago, the Tubo envoys' murder case, the Luoyang explosion and stampede, the attack on the East Palace, and the Ziwei Palace explosion were all... It is related to a group of people hiding in the dark, but until now, they have not found any trace of this group of people.

Therefore, some people think that there is no such group of people. However, Zuo Chun, the governor of Baiqisi, does not think so, or some people do not think so.

After leaving the yard where Xue Changfeng lived, Yin Erhu issued a lot of orders. These orders were all related to Xue Changfeng, and they were all measures to isolate him from Xue Changfeng.

After finishing Xue Changfeng's matter, Yin Erhu went straight to Baiyunguan, where Zhong Kui and his one hundred followers temporarily settled.

Baiyun Temple is not inside Luoyang City. It is located on the edge of the canal ten miles outside the city. It occupies a river bend by itself, and the willows are very elegant.

Oddly enough, in the land of the Tang Dynasty, all the more refined places had either temples or Taoist temples.

However, the better the scenery, the more remote it is. Baiyun Temple is located in a dense willow forest. The canal water meanders through here, and the river is dotted with white sails.

In Yin Erhu's eyes, these scenery are not the same thing. This Taoist temple is backed by a small mountain covered with trees, and a small canyon passes between the two mountains. As long as you continue walking, you will enter. Mang Mountain.

The canal in front of us is a place with convenient transportation. As long as you go west, you can go straight into Luoyang along the river, and you can quickly get into an extraordinary number of small rivers eastward. These small rivers communicate with large and small lakes near Luoyang. , it can be said that as long as you enter the river, you can hide without a trace.

This kind of terrain can easily breed a group of gangsters.

There were many Taoist priests in Baiyun Temple, and there were originally some pilgrims. After Yin Erhu sent a greeting card and wanted to see Zhong Kui, the pilgrims in the Taoist temple left Baiyun Temple one after another. When Yin Erhu was about to go in, he was told by the Taoist priest at the door that Baiyun From now on, the temple will be closed to thank guests, and there is no guest Zhong Kui in Baiyun Temple.

When Yin Erhu came, he received instructions from Yun Chu and Wen Wen that he must see Zhong Kui and hand over their letters to Zhong Kui personally. But now he can't even get in.

So Yin Erhu jumped over the wall and entered. After jumping over the high wall, he saw Zhong Kui waiting for him under the wall.

"Go back. This Taishan Fengchan Ceremony is about the rise and fall of the Taoist sect. As a disciple of the Taoist sect, there is no room for mistakes, and there is no room for me to ignore it."

Yin Erhu cupped his hands and said: "Since the Taoist Master has made up his mind, Junhou wants me to ask a long question. Who is the target of a hundred elite troops entering Luoyang this time?"

Zhong Kui smiled slightly and said, "You are a demon and a monster."

Yin Erhu didn't like what these smart people said. They said nothing. Maybe Junhou and Wenwen could understand them, but he couldn't understand a word.

However, after Zhong Kui gave him an answer, he climbed up the high wall again and returned the same way.

Zhong Kui watched Yin Erhu leave, sighed slightly, then gathered his mood and returned to the main hall of Baiyun Temple.

The high road here is like clouds.

Unlike Zhong Kui who looked worried, the Taoist priests here were all smiling, as if something wonderful was happening here.

Eunuch Supervisor Li Chunfeng is different after all. In today's Taoist gathering, he is not the person with the highest status. In other words, he does not have the ability to keep his word.

When Li Chunfeng saw Zhong Kui returned to his seat outside and remained silent, he took the initiative to come over and said, "Did Yunchu and the others send someone here?"

Zhong Kui said: "They don't want me to get involved."

Li Chunfeng said: "The arrow is on the string and must be fired."

Zhong Kui gritted his teeth and said, "I heard that the queen has always worshiped Buddhism, which has caused your majesty to look at Buddhism in a different light. This time, your majesty has abandoned Buddhism and switched to Taoism, which has always been at odds with him?"

Li Chunfeng said: "The dispute over Yaxian has reached a critical juncture. The Queen wants to use Yaxian's gift to confirm that she is the one under one person in the Tang Dynasty and above ten thousand people. Your Majesty does not like it.

Therefore, this time we need to take action to cut off the queen's wings. "

"What do you want me to do?"

"Three days later, three ships will arrive in Luoyang along the canal. What you have to do is to prevent these three ships from reaching Luoyang."

Zhong Kui asked: "Who is on the boat?"

Li Chunfeng said: "The person who should be robbed."

Zhong Kui said: "Okay, even if we kill innocent people indiscriminately, what benefits can we get? It can make everyone here forget right and wrong."

Li Chunfeng said: "Your Majesty will issue a decree to confer on me, Taoist disciple, the Supreme Emperor Xuanyuan. From now on, Daoist Gate will be under the jurisdiction of Zongzheng Temple."

Zhong Kui sneered and said, "In that case, will I be a member of the royal family from now on?"

Li Chunfeng said: "That's right."

Zhong Kui shook his head and said: "In the eighth year of Wude, Emperor Gaozu of the Tang Dynasty decreed that Taoism should be ranked first, Confucianism should be second, and Buddhism should be third.

In the thirteenth year of Zhenguan, Emperor Taizong issued an edict that demoted Buddhism and worshiped Taoism: Taoist women can wear crowns before monks.

The status of the Taoist sect has been fixed, so why should we not kill people indiscriminately in order to pursue some false reputation?

A certain family believes that once the knife is used for the first time, it will probably be impossible not to use the knife in the future. "

Li Chunfeng seemed to have made up his mind. Zhong Kui's words would not change his original thoughts. He said to Zhong Kui: "Go ahead and do it. At least the people you are going to kill are monsters that really need to be killed."

When Zhong Kui heard what Li Chunfeng said, his round eyes suddenly narrowed into two slits, and he whispered: "Luo Gongyuan can escape from a thousand miles away? Can he escape from the earth and become invisible? A certain family doesn't believe it."

Li Chunfeng said: "Just because you don't believe it, you are sent to kill this person. Otherwise, once this person enters Shangyang Palace, many of Master Ye Fa's magical powers will not be able to be used, which will be very detrimental to us."

Zhong Kui looked at Ye Fashan who was sitting among the Taoist priests in confusion. He didn't know what to say for a moment. As for the white-bearded Taoist with white hair sitting next to Ye Fashan who was holding a Taoist love cup, Zhong Kui was even more confused.

Li Chunfeng whispered in Zhong Kui's ear: "Hongmeng first opened a white bat ear!"

Zhong Kui stared at the Taoist with white beard and white hair, eager to see the shadow of a bat on this man.

It was obvious that Li Chunfeng's whisper was almost inaudible when speaking, but the white-haired and white-bearded Taoist seemed to know it. He looked at Zhong Kui with a smile and said: "Don't tell anyone, or you will die immediately.

I remember when I killed Luo Gongyuan, I used a bamboo knife instead of an iron tool to cut off his head. After the blood had dried, he put it in a bamboo box. He never dared to see the dirt. As soon as he saw the dirt, he ran away. "

Zhong Kui was a murderer in the Western Regions. He was originally very reluctant to believe what Zhang Guo said, but when he thought that this guy seemed to have lived for hundreds of years, he forcibly suppressed the doubts in his heart.

Ye Fashan also smiled and said to Zhong Kui: "You have set up the eighteen levels of hell, and your good thoughts have moved the heavens. From now on, you only need to be quiet and concentrate on your practice. Don't be stupid again and ruin your good practice."

When all the magicians in the room looked at Zhong Kui with smiles, the doubt that had just arisen in Zhong Kui's heart disappeared.

However, I felt something was wrong in my heart, and felt that I should tell Yunchu what I saw here gently.

Although those two guys are just ordinary people, once you get started with Taoism, you will enjoy it.

With the intelligence of Yun Chu and Wen Wen, they will definitely be able to get twice the result with half the effort.

Li Hong entered Ziwei Palace and wanted to see his father. Unfortunately, there were many officials waiting to see or resign from his Majesty today. It would not be his turn for a while, so he bypassed Ziwei Palace and planned to go to his mother's residence first. Shangyang Palace visits the mother who has just given birth.

The officials he met were all ambassadors who had returned from the local areas, and the officials he resigned were all officials of fifth rank or above who were going to serve in the local areas.

The emperor attached great importance to these two types of officials, and they were one of the emperor's most important jobs.

Shangyang Palace is full of women, so that the place is filled with the fragrance of powder.

Li Hong didn't understand that today was only the tenth day after his mother gave birth to a child. He should have been recuperating in the palace, but he summoned the palace people here without any taboos. There should be something very important.

It is definitely not as simple as Pei Wanying said to select beautiful palace servants and prepare rewards for meritorious officials.

Li Hong walked through the crowd of makeup and powder with eyes and nose, and everyone in the palace bowed to him wherever he went. Everyone looked at the prince with hope, hoping to become the person beside him.

Li Hong would rather focus on Aunt Chun's plump and weird ass than take another look at the palace people.

Aunt Chun seemed to feel Li Hong's scorching gaze, so she turned her head angrily and said, "Look what I do. Look at these beauties, they are all waiting for your pity."

Li Hongwen replied angrily: "I would rather go back to the East Palace and find grandma lying on my bed than see anyone else."

Aunt Chun chuckled and said, "Are you still timid and afraid of the dark?"

Li Hong said: "I have listened to my grandma's snoring while sleeping for five years. Now that I have stopped listening to her, it becomes difficult to fall asleep."

Aunt Chun looked at Li Hong with pity and said: "Naha is gone, and your heart is gone too. This is not good. You are the Crown Prince, and you should learn to forget your feelings."

Li Hong frowned and said, "Is your mother practicing Taoism?"

Aunt Chun said: "Before the queen gave birth to Taiping, a Taoist priest always came to the palace to speak to the queen.

One of them, Luo Gongyuan, was small but very capable. He could actually guess the number of jewelry in the Queen's jewelry box. "

Li Hong was taken aback and gritted his teeth and said: "They are all monsters who deceive the public with their lies. Where is this person? I will kill him with my own hands."
