Riding the Pheonix Chapter 673: From 1
Mingwei walked slower and slower.
Ji Xiaowu complained: "Cousin, aren't you very powerful, you calculate so slowly?"
Mingwei glanced at him: "My cousin made it so easy, are you coming?"
"Uh..." Ji Xiaowu waved his hand and admitted defeat, "Forget it, I'll shut up."
Mingwei continued to move forward slowly.
Although Duofu has learned everything she needs to learn, her proficiency is still a bit lacking. Such a complex question is a bit difficult for her, and she cannot calculate it so quickly.
At the last fork in the road, Mingwei stopped looking at the question and only stared at the changes around her.
Ji Xiaowu was impatient to wait until she finally took that step, chose a path, and walked over.
This maze is not big. After only ten steps, the scenery gradually becomes clear.
The sound of footsteps was also heard from another fork in the road.
Mingwei looked up and saw that Mr. Yang and his maid came out of the maze at the same time as her.
Stand in front of the abbot exactly.
It was only then that Emperor Tiancheng breathed out.
He has been waiting for this opportunity for a long time.
The imperial power fell and the Chu family was in danger. Whether it was in the court or the military, the Tang family was too powerful. And what about him? The only people who can be used by him are at the level of the Chang family, who are much worse than them.
He has no confidence at all that he can recover the Chu family.
A few years ago, he wanted to meet Master Ignorance and ask him to show him a clear path and tell him whether there was any hope for the future.
That Young Master Yang appeared, and the Chang family father and son reminded him.
Can the fortune-telling skills of Xuanwu Mountain impress Master Ignorance?
God seemed to have given him a chance. In this debate meeting, the master actually brought out the Lotus of Merit and Virtue, which inevitably made Emperor Tiancheng think more.
Maybe the master has been paying attention to him? It's just that because of the Tang family, I was afraid of attracting the attention of Duke Dai.
With hope in his heart, when Yang Shu walked through the maze, he was more nervous than himself. He only stared at his figure and even forgot to drink tea.
Now that I finally saw him standing in front of the abbot, I felt relieved and felt thirsty, so I reached out for water.
Chang Zhengming personally served him tea and said with a smile: "Brother Yang really has real talent and learning. Of all the people, he and... those two are the only ones who have walked out of the maze."
The other two? Only then did Emperor Tiancheng realize that Ming Wei and Ji Xiaowu had also left the maze.
"Whose family does that belong to?"
Chang Zhengming glanced at Tang Xi quickly and replied: "I just saw that under the building where they came out, there were guards from the Daiguo Palace."
Emperor Tiancheng's heart sank and he looked at Tang Xi: "Tang She is from Tang, right?"
Tang Xi seemed unaware and nodded with a smile: "Yes."
Emperor Tiancheng was silent for a while and said: "The Daiguo Duke's mansion is really full of capable people!"
Finally got this opportunity, and actually arrived at the same time as the people from Daiguogongfu.
Could it be that God also thinks that the Tang family is qualified to compete with the Chu family?
Emperor Tiancheng stared at the abbot with all kinds of feelings in his heart.
“I don’t know if both parties arrive at the same time, who will this merit lotus be given to?”
After Emperor Tiancheng asked this question, the guards who were outside to inquire about the news rushed back and sent a message: "Your Majesty, the abbot said that since both parties arrived together, it is considered a pass. There is only one Merit Lotus, and he cannot make his own decisions. I want to ask the master to make a decision."
Emperor Tiancheng was surprised: "Really? Then Young Master Yang..."
"Master Yang ordered his subordinates to come down and invite your Majesty to bear witness together."
Emperor Tiancheng let out a long breath.
It’s done.
Who cares about that merit lotus?
What he wants is such an opportunity, an opportunity to meet the master I don’t know!
At the same time, the Tang family's side.
Tang Shao tapped the rim of his cup, his eyes sinking slightly.
Taoist Master Jin has come back and said: "That boy is quite capable. He actually walked out of the maze. Tang Er, look at this..."
Wen Xiuyi curled her lips and said, "Who knows if she did it on purpose or how it was such a coincidence that they came out of the maze together? I saw that she walked slower and slower. Most likely she was waiting for others on purpose."
Taoist Master Jin blew his beard: "You girl, don't talk nonsense. Do you know how difficult the maze is? Taoist Master has only gone through five or six intersections, so he can't figure out the question, so he has to exit. Go to the back. The harder it is to calculate, why is it strange that it goes slower?"
Wen Xiuyi wanted to say something more. The guards of the Tang family over there also came to report: "...the abbot wants to ask Master Ignorance to make a decision. Miss Mingqi invites the second young master to come with him."
Tang Shao nodded: "Then let's go."
"Hey, senior brother, I'll go too!" Wen Xiuyi quickly got up and chased after him.
Taoist Master Jin is naturally unwilling to be lonely: "How can I forget Master Taoist? Just keep walking!"
The results of the maze were out, and the monks stepped forward and quickly demolished the maze.
Another eminent monk came on stage and began to lecture.
And Mingwei and others followed the abbot to the place where the master did not know where to practice.
It was a small Buddhist temple deep in Wenxia Mountain, with a few tile-roofed houses, a courtyard surrounded by bamboo fences, a pond of lotus flowers in a small pond, and a rooster that announced the dawn squatting on the low wall, its toes Look at them proudly.
The abbot asked them to help themselves and went into the back hall.
Tang Shao came over to pay homage to Emperor Tiancheng.
There was nothing unusual about Emperor Tiancheng's expression, and he looked quite friendly: "It turns out to be Erlang! I thought I would see Duke Dai!"
Tang Shao replied with a smile: "My father has been busy recently. I have nothing to do, so I took them to Dongzhi Temple to relax. ~IndoMTL.com~ Really?" Emperor Tiancheng turned his eyes and fell on Mingwei and On Ji Xiaowu.
It just so happened that Mingwei lifted the barrier and revealed his true appearance.
When Emperor Tiancheng saw it, his breathing froze.
Finally he managed to steady his breathing and asked Tang Shao with a smile: "Erlang, this lady is..."
Tang Shao moved his position without leaving a trace, blocking Emperor Tiancheng's view, and replied: "This is Miss Ming Qi. She cured my grandmother's nightmare disease a few months ago. My father is grateful for her kindness, so he stays in the house as a guest. ."
He didn't mention Mingweiqi's identity at all, fearing that Emperor Tiancheng would be obsessed with it.
The fiancée of the prince of Qi was a prisoner in Chu, with no one to rely on.
Sure enough, after hearing that he was the benefactor of the Tang family, Emperor Tiancheng looked away: "I see."
He had something on his mind and was not in the mood to talk.
Others saw that the emperor was silent, so naturally it was difficult for him to speak. The temple was quiet for a while, and the only sounds outside were the rooster clucking from time to time.
After a while, the abbot reappeared and said: "Your Majesty, Tan Yue, the master said that since both of you have been freed, we should abide by our promise. It's just that we can't get the second merit lotus at the moment, so we have The teacher exchanges a hexagram for each other. I don’t know who wants the merit lotus and who wants fortune telling."
As soon as he finished speaking, Yang Shu was the first to say: "I am a disciple of Xuanwu Mountain. I have been studying numerology since I was a child. I have a chance to meet the master I don't know. I just ask the master to take the time to give me some advice. Therefore, I want that hexagram."
The abbot looked unsurprised, nodded, and asked Mingwei: "Where are you two?"
Mingwei replied: "I heard that I have the merit lotus in hand, so I can ask the master for help. I see that the process of making the merit lotus is complicated, so there is no need to ask the master. How about exchanging it directly?"
