Zhenwu Tianxia: Summon Yuwen Chengdu at the beginning

Chapter 104 Rejection (seeking a ticket)

In the northern suburbs of Kyoto, the Imperial Mausoleum.

The night is dark and windy.

An old man stood in front of the tomb of the first emperor, motionless like a stone sculpture.

The cold wind was blowing, and there was a gloomy atmosphere in the majestic imperial mausoleum.

There are several pavilions and palaces in front, and there are hundreds of guards.

But those guards rarely come to the tomb. They are responsible for guarding the imperial tomb, but they are not allowed to enter the interior of the imperial tomb. They can only guard in the front pavilion.

Just as the cold wind was howling, Cao Zhengchun suddenly opened his eyes.

"It's finally here, our family can finally stop staying here."

He has been in the imperial tomb for a few days, and to be honest, the life in this imperial tomb is very hard.

Because the old man didn't leave the gate, he basically didn't do anything except clean the vegetation and dust in front of the mausoleum.

As for eating, he also needs to do it himself.

Life is hard and boring, Cao Zhengchun doesn't like this kind of life.

Taking advantage of the darkness, two figures leaped over from the high wall, and they tiptoed towards the mausoleum.

The guards in the front hall were probably still dozing off at this time.

"who!"

Cao Zhengchun suddenly shouted.

The two thieves were shocked when they heard the words, and they rushed towards Cao Zhengchun quickly without having time to think about it.

"It's this old thing, if you kill him, no one will disturb our good business!"

They said in a low voice.

These two thieves were found by Zhuge Zhengwo, but not by Zhuge Zhengwo.

Zhuge Zheng and I just inadvertently revealed to them some information that there are treasures in the imperial tomb.

Of course, they didn't know who Zhuge Zhengwo was.

And these two thieves are also cautious people, and they specially investigated the situation inside the imperial tomb before taking action.

I know that there is an old man in this imperial tomb.

It's a pity that they didn't know that the old man had changed.

The two thieves rushed towards Cao Zhengchun, Cao Zhengchun's expression moved slightly, first he waved one of his hands back, and then turned to avoid the other.

A palm hit the hairy thief, and the hairy thief immediately let out a shrill scream.

The screams spread, and suddenly woke up the guards in the palace ahead.

A group of guards ran out of the palace in a panic.

Under the dim night, they saw three vague figures.

"Who? How dare you break into the imperial tomb at night!"

shouted the guards.

However, as soon as their words fell, another scream sounded.

Another thief flew towards them like a sandbag.

Pfft!
The thief fell in front of the guards.

cough cough~~
After coughing up blood for a while, he tilted his head and died immediately.

"Take them away, don't disturb the peace of the late emperor!" Cao Zhengchun said hoarsely.

The guards looked at each other.

"Eunuch Zhu?" Someone called out hesitantly.

"Ok!"

Cao Zhengchun responded.

The guards were even more shocked.

The guards outside the mausoleum are replaced every so often, and it has only been half a month since these guards arrived at the imperial mausoleum.

They all knew that there was an Eunuch Zhu in the mausoleum, and they had met Eunuch Zhu face to face, but no one had ever paid attention to Eunuch Zhu.

"Eunuch Zhu actually knows martial arts?"

"I don't know! The person on duty didn't say anything!"

"It seems that the cultivation base is not low!"

"It's more than not low? The trick just now has decades of skill, so it's absolutely impossible."

The guards murmured.

"What are you still doing?" Cao Zhengchun's voice became sharper.

"Here!"

The guards hurried forward and dragged the bodies of the two thieves away.

They also secretly took a look at Cao Zhengchun, but unfortunately they didn't see that Cao Zhengchun was a fake.

When everything returned to tranquility, Cao Zhengchun showed a naive smile on his face.

"It's a pity that these two little thieves are too weak, and they didn't show our family's strength properly!"

If it wasn't for showing strength in front of the guards, these two little thieves wouldn't be enough for him to slap him.

"That's all, that's all, this should attract the attention of the imperial city!"

While murmuring, he walked towards the wooden house next to him.

The palaces and pavilions in the imperial mausoleum were all built for the late emperor. Naturally, he, a eunuch, could not live in it, but could only live in a simple wooden house next to the mausoleum.

……

In front of the Imperial College.

Wang Shouren stood beside the gatehouse and waited quietly.

Guozijian was built according to Qingfu Mountain, with the front humble and the rear high, layered on top of each other in a well-arranged pattern; pavilions and pavilions are dotted, the gables are undulating, and the cornices are upturned.

Standing in front of the door and looking at it, you can see many buildings such as lecture halls, fasting houses, study buildings, and ancestral halls. Although it is deep winter now, it still gives people a sense of tranquility and beauty.

Looking at the students wearing Confucian shirts, shuttling between the lecture hall, the Zhai, and the study building, Wang Shouren had more expectations for the Imperial College in his heart.

"The young master is Wang Shouren?" A student came to the door and asked Wang Shouren.

"This is Wang Shouren!" Wang Shouren bowed his hands.

The student smiled and said, "Mr. Jijiu invites you in."

"Please lead the way!"

Afterwards, the two entered the Imperial College one after the other, and came to a fasting house.

Knock on the door and enter.

In the studio, Fu Chengyi was leaning on the rug, holding a book and reading.

"Student Wang Shouren met Mr. Jijiu!" Wang Shouren bowed.

Fu Chengyi raised his head and looked him up and down.

"sit down!"

"Thank you, Mr. Jijiu!" Wang Shouren sat in front of Fu Chengyi.

"Your Highness recommended you to me, but I still want to test you! You don't mind." Fu Chengyi said gently.

"Mr. Jijiu, please!" Wang Shouren said confidently.

Fu Chengyi was delighted to see the talent, and asked directly, "Mencius said, "He who puts his heart into practice knows his nature. Knowing his nature, he knows Heaven. Preserve his heart and cultivate his nature, so he serves Heaven. Longevity No two, self-cultivation is the only way to achieve it, so life is established. How do you understand this passage?"

Wang Shouren said: "It's nothing more than 'preserve one's heart and cultivate one's nature, so it is a matter of nature'."

The "destiny" and "mandate of heaven" here are not fatalism, but emphasize "heart" and "nature".The heart is the god of human beings, and it has all the principles and responds to all things.Nature is the principle of the heart, and one's destiny is realized from the heart.

Fu Chengyi asked again: "What kind of heart do you have, what kind of nature do you cultivate?"

Wang Shouren said: "My heart is the heart of heaven, my nature is my nature, and my life is my destiny! Keep my heart, cultivate my nature, and practice my life, that's all."

Fu Chengyi was taken aback for a moment, then burst out laughing, "Hahaha, interesting, interesting!"

"The way of a sage, my nature is self-sufficient, and it is a mistake to seek truth from things!" Wang Shouren said with a smile.

Fu Chengyi looked at Wang Shouren in amazement.

Although there is no Neo-Confucianism in this world, Confucianism is still biased towards natural principles.

Although the current Wang Shouren has not yet comprehended the theory of mind, he already has the foundation of the theory of mind in concept.

So he said 'my heart is the heart of heaven', which means that the heart is the reason.

What he said was somewhat different from the Confucianism in Fu Chengyi's heart.

"It's interesting, you can stay in the Imperial College from now on."

"Thank you, Mr. Jijiu!" Wang Shouren said happily.

……

Within the imperial city.

Eunuch Lu stood guard in front of the imperial study room, and a young eunuch came to him and whispered a few words.

After listening, Eunuch Lu frowned slightly and asked, "Have you checked his identity?"

"It has been checked and there is no problem." The little eunuch replied.

Eunuch Lu nodded slightly and said, "Bring him to me."

"Here!"

The little eunuch replied.

After a while, the little eunuch brought Cao Zhengchun in front of Eunuch Lu.

Eunuch Lu looked at Cao Zhengchun. Cao Zhengchun was wearing a shabby green dress and a three mountain cap, showing a simple and honest smile.

Eunuch Lu asked again: "When did you enter the palace?"

"The 18th year of Qingde!" Cao Zhengchun replied.

Qingde is the year name of the previous Lihuang, who reigned for 22 years.

And that Eunuch Zhu was Qingde who entered the palace in 18 years, but after entering the palace, he was placed in the palace supervisor, and after the death of the previous Emperor Li, he went to guard the imperial tomb.

Now this Eunuch Zhu also belongs to the Jingong Supervisor, but the Shengong Supervisor may have forgotten him.

"Why do you want to hide your cultivation?"

Eunuch Lu asked.

"Our family has never hidden our cultivation, it's just that we haven't displayed it!" Cao Zhengchun said.

Eunuch Lu nodded slightly, but he did not doubt Cao Zhengchun's identity, after all, it is impossible for ordinary people to let a congenital warrior enter the palace as a eunuch.

Not to mention ordinary people, even two or three people can't do it.

It is almost impossible for a congenital warrior to leave the palace.

Afterwards, Eunuch Lu asked a few more questions, and Cao Zhengchun answered them one by one. With the information Zhuge Zheng and I gave him, he didn't reveal any flaws.

"You wait here first."

After some questioning, Eunuch Lu said again.

"Here!" Cao Zhengchun responded.

Immediately, Eunuch Lu entered the imperial study.

After a while, he came out of the imperial study again and said, "From now on, you will be an eunuch in the Supervisor of Rituals."

The status of Suitang eunuchs is lower than that of Zhangyin and Bingbi eunuchs.Participate in redemption.But Cao Zhengchun will definitely not participate in the redemption.

As a newcomer, Eunuch Lu wouldn't arrange too many things for him, but he just wanted to leave him in the Rites Supervisor.

"Here!" Cao Zhengchun replied again.

For him, as long as he entered the imperial city, he didn't care about his position.

"You should step back and tidy up, and come back tomorrow." Eunuch Lu said fairly.

When Cao Zhengchun heard this, he bowed and resigned.

After he left, Eunuch Lu told the little eunuch next to him: "Let the people below observe for a while, and if there is no problem, then let me know."

"I understand!" The little eunuch replied.

Then Eunuch Lu waved his hand, signaling that he could leave.

On the other side, after Cao Zhengchun left the imperial study room, shrewd eyes flashed in his eyes.

"This Eunuch Lu's cultivation seems to be very extraordinary!"

Just now he discovered a big secret, that is, Eunuch Lu is actually an innate warrior, and not just an ordinary innate warrior.

Although Eunuch Lu didn't show the slightest bit, Cao Zhengchun could still detect it.

"It seems that we should be more careful in the future, the water in the imperial city is a bit deep!"

Cao Zhengchun thought to himself.

……

At the foot of Moling Mountain.

Qin Wei drove slowly in a carriage.

Mo Ling Mountain is located in the northwest of Tianzhou, more than 800 miles away from Tianzhou City. Qin Wei traveled five days in a carriage to reach Mo Ling Mountain.

Inside the carriage, Qin Wei leaned against the soft quilt, his eyes were slightly closed, and his mind was immersed in the Yitian chessboard.

"I don't know if Bai Qi has been to the Qinzhou border army!"

Qin Wei thought of Bai Qi.

From Tianzhou City to the frontier army of Qinzhou, it takes about 2000 miles to go through the entire Sizhou and Qinzhou. Even riding a horse, Bai Qi estimated that it would take more than ten days to do it.

This is still no accident. If there is an accident, the delay of three or five days will be short.

If you count the days, Bai Qi should have entered Qinzhou at this time, and it is estimated that he should not have reached the frontier fortress.

Qin Wei looked at the Shi Qi on the Yitian chessboard, and more than 400 wisps of Shi Qi were injected into the chess piece representing Bai Qi.

More than 400 wisps of potential energy can raise Bai Qi's cultivation base to the seventh rank.

Bai Qi wants to join the frontier army. If his cultivation level is too low, it will be difficult to be reused. If his cultivation level is too high, it is not good.

When Bai Qi stabilized in the frontier army, he would raise Bai Qi's cultivation base to the eighth rank, and then after another year or so, he would raise it to the ninth rank.

Such a gradual process is also acceptable to people.

"Your Highness, we are here!" Xiao Shunzi shouted outside the carriage.

Qin Wei opened his eyes, put on his fur coat, and opened the curtain of the car.

Looking at the white-capped Mo Ling Mountain, he gathered the fur coat on his body.

This Moling Mountain is much colder than Tianzhou City.

There are many mountains around, and the biting north wind passes through the gaps in the mountains, stabbing people like knives.

Jumping off the carriage, Qin Wei climbed up the mountain along the bluestone steps.

"These sects are really real, so they can't choose a good place, they have to live on the top of the mountain!"

Looking at the long stairs, Qin Wei couldn't help complaining.

"Your Highness, be patient, we will be there soon!" Xiao Shunzi comforted.

Qin Wei shrugged, and continued walking up without paying attention.

He just wanted to complain, and he didn't really feel tired.

Walking to the top of the mountain, a wide mountain plain appeared in Qin Wei's eyes.

Behind the hillside is a piece of antique houses, without the splendor of Wanfu Temple, nor the majesty of Tianshi Mansion, but with a somewhat natural and ethereal charm.

"You came!"

On the hillside, an old man in a loose robe stood.

When he saw Qin Wei coming, he smiled gently.

"Senior knows that this king is coming?" Qin Wei was slightly surprised.

The old man smiled and said, "I saw it just now!"

Qin Wei blinked and asked, "I haven't asked Senior's name yet!"

"Old Lu Qingfeng!" With his hands behind his back, Lu Qingfeng's deep eyes were like a pool of muddy water, making it hard to see the depth.

Lu Qingfeng!
The Great Elder of the Qiyuan Sect!
Qin Wei already knew his identity.

"Then does Senior Lu know the identity of this king?"

"Since you call yourself the king, you must be the king of Xin'an County!" Lu Qingfeng said.

Qin Wei nodded slightly, "Grandpa Huang has a letter for me to bring."

As he spoke, he took out the letter from his cuff.

Xiao Shunzi hurried forward and handed the letter to Lu Qingfeng.

Lu Qingfeng opened the letter and glanced at it.

"I have received the letter, Your Royal Highness, please come back!"

Qin Wei's expression froze.

What does this mean, I have just climbed up, so you let me go down!

At any rate, entertain this king!

"Is there something else to do, His Royal Highness?" Lu Qingfeng still had a gentle smile on his face.

But Qin Wei felt that his smile was very annoying.

"Farewell!"

Qin Wei cupped his hands, then turned and left.

Stepping on the icy stone steps, his face was a little gloomy.

Although he felt that Qiyuanzong would not welcome him before coming, he did not expect that Qiyuanzong would not even let him enter the gate.

Not even the most basic way of hospitality is really arrogant.
