The Great Doorway of Daoism

Chapter 72: Hengqin Summit

   Hua Lanting asked: "What is the Queen? The daughter of the Xiongnu Shanyu? How do you know that she is the Queen?"

Yuan Miao shook his head: "The Queen is a title. The current Xiongnu is a country where the state and religion are united. They believe in shamanism. The prince and daughter are respected in the religion, and they sit in the holy palace. When the princes grow up, they will gradually have a great say in national affairs, but they usually play a role behind the scenes."

"The prince daughter was selected by a group of shaman priests. When the Xiongnu first established the Great Discord more than 50 years ago, because the foothold was not stable, in order to appease all ethnic groups, the saint woman at that time could be a foreigner, or even a Han saint. , It’s just that the upbringing and education is the responsibility of the priesthood."

"After the political situation is stable, the saint can only be produced from the Huns. The prince can marry a man in the clan, but she will retire after marriage. When this prince was canonized more than a decade ago, we gave it to North Kunlun courteously. The congratulatory gift is the Nine Heavens Ring on Dailuosi's neck, so I can recognize her. She should be eighteen years old this year, just when she first came into contact with Shaman's educational affairs and Daqi state affairs."

   Hua Lan Ting asked: "Is there any impact on her presence here?"

Yuanmiao replied: "I can't talk about the influence. The North Kunlun is powerful and detached. There is no force that dares to offend us, and we generally don't get involved in secular disputes, but we are usually notified of major events. You are like the nearest parties. The forces planned to overthrow the big divergence in secret, and invited me to participate, but I don’t plan to go either. I guess they didn’t expect us to participate, but they were afraid that North Kunlun would be unhappy afterwards, and they knew that we would not ventilate the big divergence."

   After hearing this, Hua Lanting said: "I have heard about this, isn't it a party in seven days?"

   Yuan Miao asked in surprise, "How did you know? This is a major event related to the change of dynasties?"

   Hua Lan Ting told him what happened. Yuan Miao shook his head and said: "This Mongolian is too straightforward. How can things happen if things are not secret. But he is also a peripheral person. The time and place of such a big event are decided by chance, not necessarily in seven days. What? You are right about this. Interested in something?"

   Hua Lan Ting nodded: "Dust Dynasty will inevitably be turbulent due to my father's affairs, and the situation in neighboring countries will also have an impact. There are many variables. I need to master more dynamics and intelligence to act accordingly."

   Yuanmiao said: "This is easy to handle. You can participate in the conference with the token they gave me. As for how to act, you can do whatever you want."

   Hua Lan Ting asked: "This is also okay? Will it not cause trouble to Bei Kunlun?"

   Yuanmiao said: "Beijing Kunlun respects the heavens and the earth, only seeks to prove the Tao to achieve longevity, other things are forbidden, and they do it voluntarily."

   Hua Lan Ting knew that Yuan Miao wanted to ask for himself, but he really didn't put the world and the change of dynasties in his eyes.

   He sighed secretly in his heart. The same was true of Taoism in the previous Sun-Moon dynasty. Taoism's teachings seemed to be a little biased. It only cared about personal cultivation. This may be one of the reasons why Taoism's influence is gradually shrinking and Buddhism is becoming more and more prosperous.

   Hualanting pondered for a while and then asked, "If I don't want to participate in the conference in the name of North Kunlun, is there any other way?"

Yuanmiao groaned and replied: "This plot involves some small countries and Daqi tribes in the surrounding area. The leader is Rouran, and there are also Tubo and Huihu, Dangxiang and Jurchen tribes. The Mongolian you mentioned should be Rouran’s affiliation. If you don’t want to use the name of North Kunlun, I can arrange for you as an entourage of Rouran country representative. I don’t expect them to refuse. What do you think?"

   Hua Lan Ting said: "It's so good, that's it. Now tell me what happened to that treasure?"

   Yuanmiao replied: "The treasure is in the underground palace fifty feet below us."

   Hualanting wondered: "Is the treasure in the city?"

   Yuanmiao said: "This was originally a barren mountain, but in recent years, the scope of the king's city has been continuously expanded and it has become what it is now."

"The treasure is rumored to be the treasure land of the Great Moon Kingdom before the Great Qi, and it was later discovered by Lord Hou. The treasure has two floors. According to Lord Hou, he has transformed the inner layer. Only the descendants of his blood can drip blood. The way to open the entrance, there are organs on the outer layer and it needs a person with excellent internal strength to open it."

   Hua Lanting said: "Since you need people of the same blood, it seems unnecessary for you to guard it?"

Yuan Miao said: "There is more than one map of the treasures of the Dayue family. At that time, Lord Hou said that someone would compete with him. In later years, I also took care of a few people who came to this treasure hunt. Then no one came. I think Lord Hou is afraid that someone else will find this place. It is always troublesome. Maybe there are other channels or ways to open the secret.”

   Seeing Hua Lanting's silence, Yuan Miao said quickly: "Although Lord Hou said that I can use the treasures of the outer underground palace if I need it, I have never thought about it."

   Hualanting smiled: "I am not suspicious of you, I am thinking about how to use these treasures."

   Yuanmiao asked: "Would you like me to accompany you to have a look at night, so I have a good idea?"

Hua Lanting said: "Don’t worry, after I’ve been at the party, I’m a little worried, and then go down to check it. These days, you will negotiate with Rouran to arrange my quota, and then I will treat the hidden internal injuries. Tell you, you also take the time to tell me about casting."

   Yuanmiao naturally promised again and again. That night, Yuanmiao went out to do errands, and Hua Lan Ting lived in the blacksmith's shop.

   He managed the situation himself. After possessing Yue Jing, the biggest change was in his martial arts cultivation. Should he go directly to the ancient city of Zhongping and rescue Yue Houye directly?

Hua Lanting rejected this idea. One reason is that since Yue Ye had pre-arrangements for collecting treasures, he must have its intentions. He needed to decide the next step based on the progress of all aspects; the second was based on Yue Jing’s memory and his father and son. Karma is an extremely loyal and patriotic person who loves his country and cherishes feathers. If he didn't really want to rebel, he would probably not agree with the extreme method of jailbreaking; the third reason is that he used the Zidou to occupy a hexagram, and the hexagram shows Yue There is no worries about life in a short period of time.

For the next six days, Hua Lan Ting was learning casting skills with Yuan Miao. Yuan Miao really knew everything without saying anything, and Hua Lan Ting had an excellent memory. Whether he understood it or not, he remembered it all by rote. What is lacking is the accumulation of long-term practical operation.

During the period, Hualanting taught Yuanmiao how to repair the hidden wounds. Yuanmiao tried to find out that it was really effective. He continued to ask about the way to break through the bottleneck. Hualanting told him that haste is not enough, and he can’t go back and make the same mistake again. , You must look forward and make new mistakes if you want to.

   Yuanmiao smiled bitterly, knowing that Hua Lanting was holding him, but as long as there was a glimmer of hope, he would not hesitate.

It’s not that Hua Lanting refuses to teach Yuanmiao. One Yuanmiao’s hidden wounds still needs time to heal. Second, he always feels inexplicably that Yuanmiao’s things about the treasure are a little bit inaccurate. He needs time. Observe that the three methods of opening up the two channels of the governor and the governor are far more difficult to obtain than treasures for people like Yuanmiao in this world. You have to wait for him to pay the equivalent price. Although the old Taoist has mixed spiritual powers, martial arts are also difficult. Can't compare to myself, but this body skill is absolutely top-notch here.

   On the sixth night, Hualanting went to Chengdong Sunset Flag Inn and found a way to the sky.

Lu Mantian looked very embarrassed when he saw him. He scratched his head and said, "Brother Hua, I made a mistake and thought I left. I have the right to bring people to a gathering of all parties like Israel. Who knows? Our boss of Longling Slasher's place has been dismissed, so you won't blame me."

   Hua Lan Ting was amused. It is estimated that he would be the one who defeated the boss of Fang. He smiled and said: "It's okay, it's okay, I can come to Wangcheng for a visit, I'm already worthy of my trip."

While Hua Lanting and Lu Mantian were talking in the room, a woman came in at the entrance of the inn, dressed as a warrior, she looked like a busy traveler, and she asked a guy for a room when she came in. She didn't want the inn to be too hospitable. But the guy was so busy that he was in a bad mood, and a few words didn't deal with him and he started arguing.

   Just as Lu Xiaocui was passing by, she saw that the woman was alone and looked haggard, and she felt sympathy for a while, and said to the shop Xiaoer that the woman should live with her first, and then move out when there is a vacant room.

At this time, in a mansion in the capital of the Dust Dynasty thousands of miles away, Min Shihai, the Minister of War Zuo Shihai, who had returned home for more than ten days on business, was furious at his son Min Wenzhu: "Why didn't you look at your sister? Let her run away from home? Isn't this adding to the chaos?"

Min Wenzhu said dejectedly: "I didn't expect her to be so strong, she took it away and left. She haunted me to ask about Yue Jing's news. I was forced to tell her about the phantom gun door I just got. Who Know her..."

Min Shihai's face was uncertain, and said: "We are separated from the Qingyuan Hou Mansion by a wall. This girl Yuemei played with Yue Jing when she was young. She can be regarded as a childhood sweetheart. I had planned to climb up to Master Hou and Emperor. Gao Zhi'er of the party, who expected Yuehou now..."

  Min Wenzhu asked, "Is there any latest news? How do you plan to respond?"

Min Shihai said: "Your Majesty has just ordered the arrest of Lord Hou’s friends and cronies in the court. With this purpose, there will be more memorials against Lord Hou, and his voice will be much lower. Your Majesty’s arbitrary action this time is really true. The sky is unpredictable, but I am still hesitating how to stand in line?"

  Min Wenzhu said, "Why, the situation should be clear now?"

  Min Shihai said: "What do you know, the post-party and some other domestic leaders are still waiting and watching without speaking. If you stand on the wrong team in this storm, you may be dead. Wait."

Then he yelled again, "The problem is that your kid didn’t watch Yue Mei and asked her to run away to look for Yue Jing. If they were to be together, our Min’s family would have a hundred mouths, and if they were sitting down, it would be Qingyuan Hou’s gang. Yes. Don't send anyone to find it. You and Shangguan ask for leave, and you will immediately take someone to chase me!"

   The Minister of War Zuo Shilang is arguing at home, but in fact, all parts of the government are paying close attention to the development of this matter. Several heavyweights of the rear party have held three small meetings for secret discussions, but the Dongnuan Pavilion where the Queen Mother lives has been silent. Qingyun Emperor Qinzheng Hall will not send all the papers to all parties. All feel confusing.

Most dignitaries in the dynasty knew that although the queen mother supported the eldest son Qingyun to ascend the throne, the queen mother actually preferred the second son, Prince Xitai. In the past, even the kings of Beiyan and Dongqing were better than the eldest son. At that time, Emperor Xian died of sudden illness. In line with the tradition of the eldest son succeeding to the throne, UU Reading www.uukanshu.com had to establish Emperor Qingyun.

Emperor Qingyun was perverse and introverted when he was a child, seldom spoken, and has always been weak and sick, so he has not been liked by the Queen Mother. Now this year, he has become more authoritative. Although the Queen Mother has already returned to the emperor, many departments of the court have important positions. In fact, they are all controlled by people in the back hall.

   Even though the ministers knew that the court would change sooner or later, they never thought it was the beginning of the Qingyuanhou incident.

   Let's talk about Hua Lan Ting. He was urgently recalled to the blacksmith shop by Yuanmiao's messenger after dinner. Yuanmiao said that the party would be held an hour after receiving the notice. He asked him to go to an intersection with a token to wait for Rouran to represent the second prince Lord.

   After a short while, the two sides connected their heads. Tu Han brought only one entourage. He was surprised to see Hua Lan Ting so young, but Tu Han was capable and deep in the city. He was very respectful to Hua Lan Ting, and did not show the style of a prince. , And did not ask more about Hua Lan Ting's origin and attitude, which made Hua Lan Ting look at the prince with admiration.

In fact, Tu Han also had doubts in his heart. When Yuanmiao contacted him, he was a little confused about whether Hualan Ting represented North Kunlun. However, North Kunlun was willing to send someone to participate. Although he did not publicly indicate his identity, this has already made him feel confused. Some were flattered and made up their minds secretly. Hualan Ting had no opinion. If there was any, he needed to satisfy himself as much as possible. With the help of North Kunlun, no matter whether it was overt or secret, there were only good things and no bad things.

   The meeting place is arranged in a place called Hengqin Peak outside Wangcheng. This is usually a place where big merchants entertain customers to meet and hunt for leisure. The location is very secret and the terrain is dangerous, like a horizontal yaoqin.

After    Hua Lan Ting entered the inner hall with Tu Han, the space inside was wide. There were a few tables around it, and a dozen people had already been seated. It was the forces that were conspiring to overthrow the rule of the Xiongnu court.
