This Song Dynasty is different

Chapter 33 venting anger, forgetting the opportunity

There was a fire in Dingyuanhou's house.

"It is said that Marquis Dingyuan forgot to blow out the candle when he was reading at night, and the candle finally burned out and ignited the paper. Fortunately, he found it in time and only burned a corner. It can be repaired today."

The chamberlain who delivered the message had a look of admiration on his face, thinking that Dingyuan Hou had already achieved great success and could still read at night by candlelight. No wonder he had such talent.

But the people from the Imperial City Division brought another theory.

"Someone set the fire. People from the Inspection Department arrived, but they were blocked by Marquis Dingyuan. The prisoners were not given to the people from the Inspection Department, but to us."

"Who is it?" the Queen Mother asked calmly.

"Says he is a Taoist priest."

The Queen Mother waved her hand, and the people from the Imperial City Department retired.

Concubine Yang happened to be there, and she sighed: "Why did Marquis Dingyuan lie?"

The Queen Mother was silent.

Concubine Yang thought for a long time, "Is it because she is embarrassed?"

The Queen Mother shook her head.

"Why is that?" Concubine Yang was puzzled.

"He is afraid that his old age will be in trouble!"

……

The Queen Mother insisted on fasting and praying, feeling that Jingxian and others could communicate with God. If the outside world learned that Jingxian and others were cut off by Dingyuan Marquis due to fasting and praying, she would send someone to set fire to Dingyuan Hou's house.

What will the outside world think?
Is this an expert who can communicate with God?

The Queen Mother is blind!
What kind of curtains are you hanging?
Concubine Yang was surprised, "This is..."

"Are you worried that I won't be able to see anyone?" The Queen Mother said coldly, "I have experienced more dangerous things."

"Marquis Dingyuan is troubled." Concubine Yang admired the Queen Mother the most and nodded desperately.

The Queen Mother asked calmly: "How long has it been since Marquis Dingyuan came to visit me?"

Luo Chongxun said respectfully: "It's been three days."

"Discourteous!" the Queen Mother said majestically.

"Yes."

Immediately, someone in the palace went to scold Marquis Dingyuan.

The confused Marquis Dingyuan immediately entered the palace and had a meal with the Queen Mother.

During the dinner, the Queen Mother broke the rule of not saying anything and scolded Marquis Dingyuan for being almost 20 years old and still unmarried.Marquis Dingyuan's face turned pale and he swore that he would definitely find a good wife and would find her immediately.

The Queen Mother told him to give him three months, and if he couldn't find it, don't blame me for taking action.

Marquis Dingyuan then went to see the official, who was lying on the bed and laughed happily.

"Become relatives with the eldest lady!"

"dream!"

Li Xian would rather remain a bachelor for the rest of his life than marry the Queen Mother's natal family.

Just thinking about Liu Congde's face was enough for Li Xian.

"Marquis Dingyuan!"

Outside the palace gate, Liu Congde was preparing to ask for an audience with the Queen Mother.

This guy enters the palace as casually as he goes home, which is unique in the Song Dynasty.At this moment, seeing Li Xian who was as casual as him, he couldn't help but feel sad.

"Liu Langjun." Li Xian laughed.

To be honest, Liu Congde was not ugly. Li Xian fantasized about putting this face on a woman's neck, and he immediately wanted to leave the house naked.

Liu Congde went to the palace to cry for poverty. In the past, when this happened, the Queen Mother would reward him with a huge fortune.But today I got a word.

"roll!"

Liu Congde was puzzled as to why his dear aunt was so indifferent to him. When he asked, he found out that Marquis Dingyuan had offended his aunt before, but he was scolded by her and ran away with his face covered.

It turned out to be the case.

Liu Congde laughed and left, and went home to hold a banquet to celebrate.

When Li Xian returned home, Wang He took the initiative to ask for help, "Lang Jun, that Taoist set fire to the house, how can we let him go free? I am willing to hunt down this person."

Li Xian shook his head and suddenly asked an irrelevant question, "Wang He, the human heart is made of flesh, right?"

Wang He was silent.

"I forced the official family to break the fasting ceremony, which is extremely unfilial. The Queen Mother would not have guessed my role in it, but the Queen Mother chose to clean up the official family and let me go. People can't be too selfish..."

……

Jingxian practiced in the Taoist temple in Bianjing City.

Doing morning exercises every day and practicing a little, it’s all a day’s work.

A Taoist priest came to look for him and said, "Brother, there was a fire in Dingyuan Hou's house last night, but it was put out."

"Idiot!" Jingxian scolded: "I asked you to wait for a reliable person to take action. Is this a reliable person?"

The Taoist smiled and said, "But news came from the Dingyuan Hou family that the candles in the study were not blown out at night and the study was lit. In this case, we will be fine."

Jingxian's heart trembled, "He covered up this matter, and if he later attacked us, who would have guessed it was him? Be careful, people will keep an eye on him!"

Knock knock knock!
Someone knocked on the door.

The Taoist went over to open the door, "What are you waiting for..."

"Shen Cong, the marriage officer of the Imperial City Department, we are here on orders! Where is Jingxian?"

Bah!
Jung-hyun broke through the back window and fled.

But there was a big net under the window, and a few good hands from the Imperial City Division pulled him and wrapped him in it.

When Shen Cong came over, Jingxian hissed: "Why do you want to take Pindao?"

"Who made you offend the Queen Mother?"

"Pindao swears that he has not offended the Queen Mother. Pindao is very respectful to the Queen Mother. Is it wrong? It must be..."

"Take them to Salmon Island!" Shen Cong turned around, with an evil look on his eyebrows, "If you go there, don't even think about coming back. Just keep going."

On the big tree diagonally opposite, a dark figure watched this scene quietly. After the people from the Imperial City Division left, he quietly got down from the tree and returned to the Li family.

Lying on the bed, Wang He said softly: "That old woman actually took out her anger on Mr. Lang. It's strange."

The Queen Mother learned the news after getting up the next day.

During today's discussion, Wang Qinruo was eloquent and flattered the Queen Mother for a long time. In the past, the Queen Mother would have been comfortable, but today she looked quite indifferent.

Could it be that my choice of words today was inappropriate?
Wang Qinruo was puzzled.

After the discussion was over, the Queen Mother went to see the official's house. "Do you think Marquis Dingyuan will be a loyal minister, or what?"

The official, who was holding his buttocks, was startled and thought for a moment, "Madam, he doesn't know how to be a loyal minister."

"Why?"

"I feel something. If I treat him as a subject, he will definitely stay away from me."

"Ok?"

"He doesn't bother to bow to anyone. Madam, can you please don't let him bow to anyone?"

"So, what's going to impress him?"

Zhao Zhen almost didn't think about it, "Sincerity."

"Are you sincere?"

The Queen Mother stood up and asked, "How long will the officials stay in bed?"

"Madam, I am still bad at what I do."

"Bring home law."

"I'm fine, I'm fine..."

The palace was very lively, and so was the Li Xian family, but it was Di Qing who was practicing martial arts.

A spear was masterfully wielded by Di Qing. Xinghua clapped her hands and cheered. Li Xian asked Wang He, "How is it?"

"It's the skill of fighting formation." Wang He said.

"He has only been in the army for more than a month." Li Xian smiled.

"That's genius." Wang He had seen genius before and died under random arrows.In his opinion, if a genius wants to get ahead, it depends on whether God will give him face.

"The most outstanding genius in the Song Dynasty!"

After Di Qing finished practicing his marksmanship, he seriously asked his husband to comment.

"Not bad, it's dazzling." The gentleman who was not good at marksmanship praised with a straight face.

"Bitch thief, but you are deceiving the public with your monstrous words!" At this time, there was a sudden noise outside.

Someone kicked at the door, and with a bang, the door was kicked open.

A Taoist appeared.

In the flying dust, the shadow of a gun suddenly appeared on his chest. The Taoist priest was horrified and retreated quickly.But the spear followed him like a shadow, following him to the wall opposite Li's house.

Bah!
The Taoist priest hit the wall and was unable to retreat, shouting: "Help me!"

"Di Qing!"

Following this shout, the shadow of the gun stopped at the Taoist priest's throat. The tip of the gun was so cold that the Taoist priest did not dare to move even half a minute.

He looked carefully and saw a young man holding a long gun with murderous intent in his eyes.

Li Xian came out and saw several Taoist priests standing beside him indignantly.

"Marquis Dingyuan, you slandered the Queen Mother and caused Taoist Master Jingxian to be exiled to Salmon Island. You will not die a good death!" said a Taoist.

Exiled to Salman Island?
Li Xian was startled and said calmly: "Wang He, communicate with the people from the Inspection Department."

Wang He asked: "How to deal with it."

"Let them deal with it impartially."

Kicking down the door of Dingyuanhou's house cannot be solved by paying money.

Later, the news spread throughout the official and powerful circles.

When Wangji, a famous old Taoist priest in Bianjing City, went to Laoya Lane, Cao Li couldn't help laughing, "Wangji is the real master. Compared with him, Jingxian is just a clown. Now, Li Xianyou Difficult."

Li Xian, who was preparing to go on a trip to get rid of his bad luck, was blocked by an old Taoist at the door of his home.

"The poor Taoist forgets the opportunity." The old Taoist has thin cheeks and slightly dark skin, but his eyes are black and white, with more black and less white. He is more energetic than most young people.

"Taoist Master is here..." Li Xian frowned.

"I heard that Marquis Dingyuan has some opinions about our Taoism. The old Taoist came here because he wants to discuss things with Marquis Dingyuan."

Xinghua said softly: "Mr. Lang, the old Taoist priest is very famous!"

Then the two of them entered.

"Just under the tree!" Wangji walked to the tree and sat down casually.

Laifu was spinning around at the feet of the old Taoist priest, but his tail was wagging, which was very rare.

Li Xian sat down and Wangji spoke, "The old Taoist monk has been a monk for many years. At the beginning, he was distracted and found it difficult to calm down. In the dead of night, I asked myself many times, is it possible that such years can be tortured?"

Monks are also mortals, and they have all the emotions and desires that mortals have.Those who can truly understand the world are the rare ones who are the real masters.

Li Xian said sarcastically: "The so-called Tao Ran Wangji, but why is the Taoist priest here? The reputation of Taoism? Or Taoism. Since you have left home, you have jumped out of the three realms and are not in the five elements. What is the use of fame in the world? I heard that persistence This is the first level of spiritual practice. Has the Taoist Master ever investigated the desire for fame and fortune, drinking, sex, and wealth?"

"The desire for fame and fortune is just a passing smoke for an experienced Taoist..."

"I secretly believe that as long as people are eating, drinking, and eating, they will inevitably be greedy and angry. Does Taoist Master think so?"

The argument goes deeper...

Outside, many people were waiting for news.

"Wangji is highly respected in Bianjing and has friends with many famous people. Once he gets the upper hand, that kid will be so distressed that he will be unable to move forward!"

Cao Li was drinking at home, with a smile in his eyes, "Some people say that if you are virtuous, you don't need to take action when encountering injustice. God will naturally take care of those villains. I didn't believe it in the past, but now I know this is true."

Later, a servant rushed in and said, "Alang, Master Wangji is here."

"What did he say?" Cao Li asked.

The servant said: "He said that being able to communicate with Marquis Dingyuan would be of great benefit to his practice."

……

"Why is master so polite to that Li Xian?"

Several disciples protected Wangji out of Laoya Alley, and one of them couldn't help but ask.

Wangji said nothing until he crossed the first bridge, wiped his forehead, and said as if with lingering fear:

"Pindao has argued with people many times over the years, but I have never seen anyone so sharp. Marquis Dingyuan did not argue with Pindao about Taoist parents' shortcomings. Instead, he pointed directly at the darkness of people's hearts, making Pindao's back wet with sweat."

"Master has been practicing for many years, how can he still shake his mind?" The disciple was puzzled.

Wangji stood still and looked back at Laoya Alley.

Nod, "Yes."
