    Chapter 150: Face to face

    "Well!" Lizong paused, his face unchanged, as if he didn't care, but Concubine Jia could feel the big hand on her waist trembling slightly, "I'm going to Chui Gong Hall now!"

    Concubine Jia smiled softly and said softly: "Your Majesty, please go quickly. I, my concubine, will go talk to the saint."

    Lizong nodded, he was a little absent-minded, his mind had already flown far away, and he was quite worried about the outcome of Zhang Tianshi and Yang Zhenren's party. Regarding Mr. Zixu, even as the emperor, he was somewhat unable to do anything.

    Pushing the Xuanmen Gate of Xinhua Pavilion, he saw a brocade robe and a tall figure Chen Lao waiting outside. His eyelids were low, as if sleeping and sleeping, but stood up like a pine.

    When he saw Lizong and Concubine Jia coming out, Mr. Chen was still as motionless as a carved horse, with his eyelids drooping, as if he was not awake yet.

    Another young eunuch beside him was thin, handsome in appearance, and elegant in temperament. When he saw Lizong and the imperial concubine, he calmly bowed and said softly: "Your Majesty, Zhang Tianshi and Yang Zhenren should be already here at this time.  We waited outside the Chui Gong Hall. When I came over, they had just entered the main entrance of Li." The voice was round and soft, more like a man than a man, a woman but not a woman, with a unique charm.

    Lizong nodded, with approval on his face, and smiled sideways at Concubine Jia: "Madam, the weather is particularly sunny today. You should go to Jujing Garden to wait for me. After you have met Zhang Tianshi and Yang Zhenren, I will accompany you to the garden!"  "

    Concubine Jia immediately smiled as brightly as a flower, and was extremely charming, but she said: "Your Majesty, state affairs are still important, so there is no need to cherish my concubine!"

    Lizong chuckled, also full of joy, and waved his hand gently: "I have made up my mind, madam, there is no need to say more!" After that, he turned around and walked away from Shehua Pavilion and went straight to Chuigong Hall.

    Along the way, Lizong's pace was sometimes fast and sometimes slow. He turned a blind eye to the eunuchs he met on the road and just waved his hands subconsciously. He had a lot of thoughts in his heart. He had not been so concerned about gains and losses for many years.

    Mr. Chen followed Lizong closely, his feet were silent, and he followed him like a shadow. His eyelids were still drooped, as if he hadn't woken up. His cultivation had reached the pinnacle, he no longer needed to use his eyes to see things, and his mind was more sensitive than his eyes.

    With his detached status in the palace, he no longer has to always accompany the emperor. He has Xiao Su and his group of shadow guards to do the job for him. However, since meeting Wang Zixu in the Prime Minister's Palace, Mr. Chen has been uncharacteristically lazy.  With a sudden appearance, he rejected the good intentions of the officials, replaced the rest of the shadow guards, and stayed with Lizong day and night, regardless of hard work.

    Although Mr. Chen did not explain the reason for such abnormal behavior, Lizong was by no means a stupid person. He knew it right away and valued this Wang Zixu even more.

    In the Chui Gong Hall, the light is bright and soft, and it is extremely comfortable. As soon as you enter the hall, there is a large screen with a height of one person, inlaid with landscape paintings, which is majestic and majestic.

    In front of the golden dragon chair is the Imperial Case of the Imperial Palace. On the jade case, there are two high piles of memorials. In the upper right corner of the inkstone and inkstone, there is a white jade lion. It is exquisite and cute, with white light, but it is Lizong's private seal.  .

    Zhang Tianshi and Yang Zhenren bowed to Lizong who was sitting on the dragon chair behind the imperial case, and slowly sat down on the bright yellow brocade pier presented by the eunuchs, smiling and extremely relaxed.

    When Lizong saw the expressions of the two people, he knew that things were in harmony. He couldn't help but feel overjoyed, but he forced himself to be calm and asked gently: "Thank you for your hard work, Master Tian and Zhenren I wonder how Mr. Zixu will reply?"

    "Haha, your majesty's grace is so great, Mr. Zixu is naturally grateful He will first ask Ping Dao to report to your majesty. The name of Wang Zixu is just his secular alias. His real name is Xiao Yuesheng, and his courtesy name is Guanlan. He dare not deceive your majesty!"

    ??Mr. Yang smiled slightly and his tone was quite humble, but he was sitting on the bright yellow brocade pier and talking, and he seemed extremely conceited. One was humble and the other was conceited. When the two merged, he seemed neither humble nor arrogant, just right.

    "Xiao Yuesheng, Xiao Guanlan? Haha" Lizong, who was dressed in a dragon robe with flowing golden light, couldn't help but laugh. In a loud voice, he leaned up and patted the imperial case carved with dragons at both ends, "Sure enough,  So!So, the Guanlan Villa on the bank of Nanhu Lake in Jiaxing belongs to him, right?"

    "Your Majesty, your Majesty!" Yang Zhenren looked at him and nodded.

    Lizong laughed a few times. Zhang Tianshi and Yang Zhenren were not as happy as his ministers, so they stopped laughing.

    "What do you think Mr. Zixu said?" Lizong straightened his body and put his hands on the imperial desk. Danfeng looked at the two of them with bright eyes.

    He did not change his name to Guanlan and still called him by his old name.

    Zhang Tianshi, who had been silent all this time, spoke slowly and said slowly: "GuanlanMr. Zixu claims to be Xianyun Yehe, and he cannot be restrained. However, since God's grace is so great, he cannot refuse and agrees to enter the palace once a year to see His Majesty."

      "Oh¡ª¡ª?I see!" Lizong looked a little disappointed on his face, stroking the beautifully trimmed beard under his chin, and pondered.

    The Chui Gong Hall suddenly became quiet and silent.

    In fact, Lizong was overjoyed. He thought that Zhang Tianshi and Yang Zhenren would definitely return empty-handed this time.

    Although these worldly masters have extraordinary abilities, most of them disdain fame and wealth. They are all full of character and arrogance. They don't respect themselves as the emperor. To put it more harshly, they don't let the emperor go.  in the eyes.

    This Mr. Zixu, or rather Mr. Guanlan, has the magical power to rejuvenate himself and conquer the world. I am afraid that there has never been such a magical person in all dynasties. I never thought that I would be lucky enough to meet him and get my wish.  , but his imperial mentality will not let others know his true feelings.

    "We have the Heavenly Master and the real person!" Lizong, who was sitting on the dragon chair, raised his head. Under his long eyebrows, Danfeng's eyes were full of energy, watching the two of them, seeming to have the power to see through people's hearts.  Smiling, he asked: "I think that the tempers of such strange people are often different from ordinary people. I guess the heavenly master and the real person must have paid a lot of attention, right?!"

    With a chuckle, Yang Zhenren stroked his Qing beard and shook his head: "The matter is not as difficult as your Majesty imagined. Mr. Zixu is an old friend of Pindao and Zhenren. This man can be called a real strange man in the world He is free and easy in nature and informal.  Regarding things, although glory, wealth, fame and wealth are regarded as fleeting, they do not avoid them and only regard them as ordinary. This kind of mentality is beyond the reach of the poor, and they feel incomparable!"

    "It turns out that Mr. Zixu is actually a friend of the real person. It seems that I did not invite the wrong person! Haha What a blessing!  I wonder how the real person said it, so that Mr. Zixu agreed so happily?"

    Although Lizong was enjoying the feast with a smile, some complaints arose in his heart. There was such a magical figure, but Yang Zhenren didn't say anything about it. Moreover, when he was asked to cure Lianrou's disease, he was unable to do anything, but he never said anything about Zixu.  Sir, it¡¯s a little hard to fathom his feelings!

    But Lizong didn't know that although Zhenren Yang knew that Xiao Yuesheng had great magical powers and was unpredictable, he didn't know that he had magical powers of recovery. Besides, a princess was not that important in his eyes. Life and death, as a cultivator.  He doesn't value people as much as ordinary people.

    "I don't dare to take credit for this matter. Mr. Zixu behaves as he pleases and has no fixed rules. He seems to have met Your Majesty and has a very good impression of Your Majesty Haha, he said, if you meet a friend, you will be at your friend's place.  It is not uncommon to linger around for a few days, not to mention that His Majesty is the most powerful person in the world. If you push three or four, it would be too pretentious!" Zhang Tianshi laughed and interjected from the side, his voice slowly flowing in the quiet hall.

    "Friends? Haha, as expected, there are strange people and strange deeds, different from others,, haha" Lizong suddenly laughed, shook his head, and then couldn't help laughing again.

    The emperor¡¯s loneliness is an unchanging law in the world. The day he sits on the dragon throne, he is destined to have no true friends. This is the price of supreme power.

    "Come here!" Lizong suddenly stretched out his hands and patted his head twice. The applause was clear and bright. It was obvious that he was quite skilled in his technique.

    "I'm here!" A soft voice sounded outside the palace, and then the felt curtain swayed, and a ray of sunlight flashed through. A young eunuch with a thin figure and elegant appearance entered from the outside, bypassed the huge embroidered landscape screen, and came to the imperial case.  kneel.

    "I order Ye Qingdie to go to the palace and respectfully invite Mr. Zixu to enter the palace!" Lizong stood up from the dragon chair, walked a few steps in front of Zhu Zi's imperial case, and gave the order slowly.

    "Your Majesty, I wonder which palace it is?" the handsome young eunuch asked in a low voice without any fear.

    "The palace is the palace, Ye Qingdie naturally understands! Just go and declare the decree!" Lizong waved his hand, but he couldn't help but feel funny. When he saw the name of Mr. Zixu's residence, he was also stunned for a moment. The difference was really quite big.  .

    So the little eunuch retreated, and silence returned to the room.

    "Your Majesty, please allow me to summon all the servants and shadow guards to my side!" Mr. Chen, who had been hiding behind the dragon pillars on both sides of the imperial case like a shadow, slowly walked out, bowed slightly and spoke slowly,  The voice was not loud, but it was filled with unquestionable determination.

    Lizong frowned and looked at Mr. Chen. Seeing that his gaze was as calm as a dry well, but his eyes did not blink, he had no choice but to nod lightly.

    Mr. Chen bowed and silently retreated behind the dragon pillar, hiding in the darkness.

    As the Lord of Shadow Guards, he has his own set of emergency summoning methods. With a single thought, he can summon the five major worshipers of Ouchi's shadow guards and inner servants.

    Zhang Tianshi and Yang Zhenren, who were sitting safely under the imperial steps, did not say much. Such behavior was extremely normal. After all, it was Xiao Yuesheng they wanted to see. If they did not agree with what they said and had murderous thoughts, they would do it themselves.?The two of them are determined to maintain it, but they are afraid that they are powerless.

    It¡¯s just that Xiao Yuesheng was ordered to do so at this time. I wonder if he has already started to take a nap. I hope it¡¯s not time to fall asleep yet

    He unfortunately expected the incident. When Ye Qingdie hurried to the palace, Xiao Yuesheng and Yang Ruonan had just taken a lunch break.

    Xie Xiaolan and Yang Guo and Xiao Longnu were practicing kung fu in the back garden. Although her skills were now as advanced as those of Yang Guo and Xiao Longnu, her understanding of martial arts was still a few steps behind Yang Guo.

    Xiao Yuesheng did not pass on any other martial arts except a set of dual cultivation methods to his second brother. Yang Guo's internal strength, which he had trained in the sea waves, was extremely strong and domineering. When combined with Xiao Longnu's pure Yin energy, he became  It is mellow and peaceful, and its power is so strong that it is superior to the Five Ultimate Skills.

    In addition, they often compete with Xiaoxing and others, and the couple usually chat about martial arts when they have nothing to do. It is a good way to relieve their boredom. The two extremely smart people inspire and promote each other. The progress of martial arts is faster than imagined. Today,  In the world, the only people who are higher than these two are Sun Ziming and their daughter Yang Ruonan.  Of course, Xiao Yuesheng's family is not included in this list.

    Old Tong, the steward of the palace, knew the temper of the Prince Consort and did not dare to wake Xiao Yuesheng, so he went to Xie Xiaolan and reported that someone from the palace had come to announce the decree.

    ??

    "Wait a minute, let's talk after the elder brother wakes up!" Yang Guo pondered for a moment and made a decision. He was thinking about how the elder brother would deal with it if he were here. With his approach, he would definitely do the same.

    Seeing Xie Xiaolan nod, the old boy turned around and left the back garden to accompany the person delivering the order.

    Ye Qingdie was wearing a purple robe and a crown of virtue, sitting steadily in the hall of the palace, with no trace of anxiety on her handsome face.

    Just by looking at the speed at which he drinks tea, you can tell that he is suppressing his anxiety. He is a close minister of the emperor and is very good at figuring out the thoughts of officials. He knows that he is eager for Mr. Zixu like rain in a severe drought. But every time he thinks about this  Mr. Zixu felt awe-inspiring in his heart and was in awe subconsciously, so even if he was a little neglectful of himself as the person delivering the decree, he did not dare to complain.

    The old boy came in slowly and smiled at Ye Qingdie who was looking up at him: "My master is taking a nap. If anything happens, we will talk about it after he wakes up."

    Ye Qingdie's skill was hidden deep inside, and he had reached the peak. He could feel the extraordinaryness of the old butler in front of him, but after all, the old boy's skill was too much stronger than his, making him unpredictable. When he saw him speaking with a soft and melodious voice,  After saying these words, Ye Qingdie almost couldn't help but spit out the tea in his mouth.

    Seeing him looking like he was about to ejaculate, the old boy's white beard and hair and rosy face showed a trace of apology, and said warmly: "Don't blame me, Mr. Ye, my master has the habit of taking a nap. It's such a big thing.  We have to wait until he wakes up!¡±

    ??Old Tong was originally a survivor of the Jin Dynasty, and he had never had any respect, loyalty, or filial piety towards the Song Dynasty. He only had his princess and his consort in his heart. In his mind, the emperor was still a little lower than the consort.

    Ye Qingdie looked at the reflection of the Xuan window on the lavender carpet, and could no longer hide the anxiety on his face. He put down the tea cup and cupped his hands and said: "I wonder when Mr. Zixu will wake up?  I am waiting for the next one.  It would be best if the official could reply earlier."

    Although he was anxious in his heart, it only showed on his face for a fleeting moment, and he still spoke calmly and calmly, without any hurry or slowness.

    "Haha, sir, don't be anxious. The master's lunch break is only half an hour. It will be over soon. Just stay for a while. Here are some letters collected by my master. You might as well use them as entertainment!"

    The old boy¡¯s fair-haired face and smiling expression were hard to refuse. Ye Qingdie weighed the balance between offending Mr. Zixu or irritating Jinshang, and then agreed.

    Ye Qingdie is also a person who likes reading, otherwise how could she be in such a high position?  !  In desperation, he had no choice but to follow the old boy's advice and carry a tea cup to the southwest of the hall.

    Through the two windows, the sun shines in, making the place very bright. Several tall screens, inlaid with paintings of flowers, birds, insects and fish, separate the sunlit area into several separate cabins, which is very suitable for  read.

    When he walked to the bookshelf that occupied the entire west wall and looked through the letters on the shelf, the expression on his face lost its calmness and became more and more excited.

    For Prince Rong, a man who pretends to be polite, reading is purely for fun and watching the fun. And most of the books Yang Guo and his wife read are from the collection of Guanlan Villa. So they are in Baoshan and don¡¯t know that only Ye Qingdie can be said to really understand books.  Book lover.

    Most of the books here were collected by Xiao Yuesheng when he was collecting martial arts secrets. Knowledge is power. Xiao Yuesheng, as a later generation, understands this sentence most clearly. For ordinary books, heAfter a disdainful glance, most of the books found were ancient books and slips. For Ye Qingdie, it was a great privilege to be allowed to go to the royal library to read books. But for Xiao Yuesheng, there was nothing like that.  His own back garden is no different, so in Ye Qingdie's opinion, every book here is worth thousands of gold.

    He was like a country boy entering the city, a little at a loss. He looked at this book and flipped through that one. He wanted to read every book, but he couldn't make up his mind to choose one.

    But after all, he had an extraordinary temperament. After being confused for a while, he finally chose a book and returned to a small room made of screens. Instead of sitting on the wicker chair to the west of the coffee table, he pressed the pear wood rocking chair, which was quite novel.  Lying down, I couldn't help but sigh in my heart, this Mr. Zixu really knows how to enjoy!

    In the blink of an eye, Ye Qingdie felt that the old boy came to his side lying on his back quietly and said with a smile: "Master Ye, my master has woken up and will be here soon."

    "Oh, okay!" Ye Qingdie reluctantly put down the antique book in his hand, stood up from the recliner, carefully closed the book and returned it to the bookshelf.

    When Xiao Yuesheng and Yang Ruonan came to the hall, they were not as indifferent to Ye Qingdie as before, with a faint smile, but it made Ye Qingdie even more afraid.

    In the Chui Gong Hall, on both sides of the Dan steps, light smoke floats out from the incense burner. If it is there or not, the hall is filled with a faint fragrance, which is quite refreshing.

    Lizong was the only one in the hall, sitting on the dragon chair, holding a memorial and reading through it, but his eyes were empty, and the memorial in his hand did not move for a long time.

    He also sent people to rush outside the palace six times to see if Ye Qingdie was back, but every time he came to nothing.

    This Ye Qingdie usually does things very safely, but this time oh, he can't do such a small thing well, he will definitely suffer when he comes back!

    He was anxious. He had stood up several times and paced up and down the jade steps. He was already a little hungry.

    He picked up the snacks on the silver plate on the imperial table, looked at the crisp and exquisite shape, and put it into his mouth. He didn't care what the ingredients were, it melted in his mouth, no need to drink tea anymore, haha, this plate of snacks  It must have been made by Sheren himself. The imperial chef did not have such exquisite skills.

    "Your Majesty, Your Majesty!" hurried footsteps sounded, and a handsome little eunuch ran in. His hat was a little askew, but he didn't care.

    Lizong stood up with a leap, pressed his hands on the imperial case, tried hard to suppress his excitement, and asked calmly: "What's going on?"

    "Your Majesty, Mr. Ye has returned to the palace!" The little eunuch knelt under the jade steps and reported loudly.

    "Okay!" Lizong sat back on the throne, his face relaxed, and he asked slowly: "Is there anyone following him?"

    "Yes, there is a man following him. He is about the same height as Mr. Ye and has a mustache." The little eunuch spoke eloquently.

    "Haha, okay! Okay!Haha, you go down first." Lizong kept laughing, a little incoherent, and laughed a few times. Only then did he realize that he had lost his composure and lost the dignity of the emperor, and hurriedly  With a wave of his hand, he drove the little eunuch out.

    "See your Majesty!"

    After Ye Qingdie went in first to pay the order, and then announced Xiao Yuesheng, he saw Lizong sitting behind the imperial case. He was dressed in a dragon robe, with a soft yellow light, and his face was like a crown of jade. It was extremely extraordinary. Xiao Yuesheng bowed his hands and said loudly.  Goodbye.

    Lizong did not feel dissatisfied with Xiao Yuesheng's refusal to kneel down. Instead, he stood up from his chair, condescended to step down, and regardless of Mr. Chen's frown, stepped forward to help Xiao Yuesheng's arms. His eyes were soft, his face was smiling, and he said: "Sir, hurry up."  No need to be too polite, I am very pleased to have you here, sir!"

    Xiao Yuesheng straightened up and casually glanced at Mr. Chen, who was standing three steps behind Lizong with his whole body tense, and smiled freely: "Your Majesty is so kind to me. People from the mountains and wilds are not familiar with temple etiquette. I hope your Majesty will forgive me!"

    " Xiao Yuesheng is not a stubborn person, and he has no intention of showing his aloofness by facing each other arrogantly. He treats the emperor as an ordinary person, and he still needs to work hard to save face.

    "Haha, sir, there is no need to be polite! Lianrou was seriously ill, but she was able to recover in the hands of sir. It is truly a miracle. Sir is such a strange person! I treat Lianrou as if I were my own child. This time I invite you to come to express your gratitude.  My gratitude!¡±

    Lizong sat on the Jindun moved by the palace maid, pointed at the Minghuang Jindun opposite, motioned for Xiao Yuesheng to sit down, and said with a smile, as if he was treating an old friend with great kindness.

    Xiao Yuesheng bowed his hands, stopped being humble, and sat down carelessly, with a warm smile on his face. Even Mr. Chen, who had been tense and highly nervous, couldn't help but feel relaxed and friendly, not to mention Lizong was so kind.  There is no one with cultivation.

    When is the magical power of telepathy not used at this time?  Xiao Yuesheng is naturally not a pedantic person.The two of them are talking to each other, so everything is under control.

    The two of them each took the fragrant tea sent by the maid with a beautiful face and slender figure, and began to talk quite intimately.

    Let¡¯s start with Princess Lianrou¡¯s illness, how it occurs, how it gets worse, how difficult it is to treat, and what methods he uses. With his eloquence in the world of business, he explains it in an easy-to-understand way, like spring breeze turning into rain.  Lizong listened with great interest.

    Lizong was also a person who knew a lot about medicine. After hearing Xiao Yuesheng's wise words, he often sighed, "Listening to your words is better than reading ten years of books. I feel as if I have read several medical books in just a few words from Mr. Zixu.  Medical knowledge increased sharply, and the tea cups were changed three times during this period.

    Then Xiao Yuesheng talked about his life experience and the strange things in the past. His speaking skills and art were slightly better than Jia Sidao's. Hearing this, Lizong was unaware of the passage of time and had forgotten his appointment with Concubine Jia.  the back of the head.
