Myths and Dharma, starting from Erlang Shen

Chapter 177 It’s Chinese New Year, why is this salute so embarrassing?

In the Ouchi Imperial Palace, two old Taoists with gray hair and celestial spirit were walking side by side on the royal road of the palace.

The Taoist on the left was a little puzzled and asked: "Why are you in such a hurry today? According to your usual style, don't you like to squeeze in the pile of makeup and powder the most? Now there must be women in the Imperial Garden. Why are you in such a hurry today? "

"Isn't it just to hide from people? It's really unlucky. I just thought that he would not go to the Taoist temple, but I didn't expect that he would come to the palace annual banquet. What a coincidence, I am accompanying you this time." The one on the right The Taoist said helplessly.

"What's wrong? Is it mysterious?" The Taoist on the left asked with some confusion, "Speaking of which, my disciple also came to the palace this year. The person he likes is in the capital. He has a wide network of contacts and helps me match him. In case he wants to go to me. ’s footsteps.”

"You want me to die." The Taoist on the right said without mercy, "I advise you to let your precious disciple give up this idea, otherwise you may have to kowtow to others every year."

"Kowtow? Are you kidding?" The Taoist on the left looked at his companion with a strange expression.

"Because he is competing with your uncle for a lover." The Taoist on the right sighed, "Let's talk about it when we go out. I hope we don't meet him today."

The Taoist priest on the left looked strange, but he didn't ask any more questions. After all, he was almost there and it was not suitable to continue talking.

Because kneeling in rows was unsightly, Gu Shuangqin was allowed to get up temporarily by the Empress Dowager. When she saw the two Taoists in the dark night, she was immediately overjoyed and hurriedly greeted them: "The two Taoists are finally here."

"Mrs. Xu?"

The two Taoists looked at the approaching Gu Shuangqin with slightly strange expressions. If they had not recognized people mainly by their eyes, but based on a person's aura, they would have mistakenly recognized Gu Shuangqin.

Is this guy who is running around in the dark and trying to scare people?
  "Yes, it is my concubine. Two real people. Now someone calls himself a Taoist priest, condoning the demon dog to hurt people, but says that the demon dog is spiritual, and even pretends to be the old immortal of Nanhua. He also asks these two real people to judge right and wrong." Gu Shuangqin said.

"In the name of the old immortal?" After hearing Gu Shuangqin's words, the expressions of the two Taoists suddenly turned cold. If it was about other things, there would be others to talk about, but when it concerns the old immortal Nanhua, it is not a trivial matter.

"Who is using the name of the old immortal?" The old Taoist on the right looked gloomy, and his eyes swept across the whole place like lightning. Then he saw a handsome smiling face, and the expression on his face changed suddenly. He subconsciously wanted to leave, but when he heard Ji Ren said: "Zi Qing, long time no see. Are you feeling well?"

"Thank you, uncle, for your concern. My nephew's health has improved a lot." When Zi Qing, the old Taoist on the right, heard this, he reluctantly showed a smile and saluted Ji Ren in full view of everyone.

This scene shocked everyone present.

What happened? The famous Ziqing Taoist actually called Ji Ren, a man who was only 19 during the Chinese New Year, his uncle.

Gu Shuangqin's face turned a little pale.

Yang Xing, who was following Mrs. Yang, saw this scene and his eyes widened. How could Ji Ren be Zi Qing's uncle?
  If so?
  The Queen Mother also widened her eyes. She believed that Ji Ren was capable, but as an older person, she instinctively believed in the old man. The convincing power of a gray-haired old man was obviously higher than that of a young Ji Ren. As a result, This is a direct blessing.

Of course, the most surprising thing is that it is definitely not them, but Taoist Zixu who came with Ziqing, who is also the master of Yangxing. What is going on?
  Zi Qing bows down now, what should I do?

Should I pay my respects or not?
  "That's good. Which of my nephews is this next to you?" Ji Ren looked at Zi Qing and smiled.

"Zixu." Zi Qing explained, then glanced at Zixu, salute, everyone is watching, don't mess up the etiquette.

Old Taoist Zixu had a strange look on his face and said via voice transmission: "What kind of uncle are you?"

"Mr. Sanyan's disciple is indeed very capable. He cured my problem casually. Stop inking and say goodbye." Old Master Zi Qing replied.

I've already bowed, but if you don't, doesn't that make me feel like I'm at a disadvantage?

Zixu is still a little confused. Is Mr. Sanyan so senior?
  But looking at Zi Qing, he still believed that Zi Qing would not cheat him. Then he saluted Ji Ren and said, "Zixu pays homage to Uncle Master." Seeing this scene, Yang Xing, who was behind Mrs. Yang, trembled.

"No need to be polite, get up. It's Chinese New Year. I'll give you red envelopes later." Ji Ren said with a slight smile.

"Two real people, what is going on?" The Queen Mother couldn't help but said, your relationship is a bit confusing.

"Back to the Queen Mother, although my junior uncle is young, his seniority is extremely high. He is indeed our senior uncle. And Dean Nanhua indeed favors him. The praise must be true." Old Master Zi Qing saluted to the Queen Mother.

Ji Ren's entry into Taoism was arranged by Old Immortal Nan Hua. Old Taoist Zi Qing knew very well that most others would commit fraud, but it was very possible for Ji Ren.

"So, this spiritual dog is indeed spiritual." The Queen Mother nodded, and then glanced at Gu Shuangqin and others. Gu Shuangqin and others suddenly felt a chill in their bodies, and quickly knelt down and said: "Queen Mother, you are wronged."

"What are you being wronged for? Could it be that Master Ji and the two real people will still wrongly accuse you together?" the Queen Mother said coldly.

"I really don't have any evil intentions. Moreover, I have been here for a long time, and this dog has also been here for a long time. If it suddenly attacks, even if the dog has a spirit, it may be due to some other stimulation." Gu Shuangqin argued. , she originally wanted to say that it was Ji Ren or Qiao Qingyin who was secretly instigating it, but in the current situation, the Queen Mother's intentions are biased toward her grandma's house. If she bites her, she may lose her life. To be on the safe side, she should save herself first. Does not bite.

"Then it's possible that some bad intentions arose during the banquet." Ji Ren said.

Gu Shuangqin's eyes widened, she never expected Ji Ren to be so evil-hearted.

"What happened at today's banquet?" The Queen Mother frowned and looked around.

Qiao Qingyin was eager to speak out, but it was obvious that as one of the parties involved, she was not qualified to speak.

"Girl Zhen, tell me." The Queen Mother said suddenly.

After the words fell, there was a commotion in the crowd. Zhenya slowly walked out of the crowd. Today she was wearing a red dress. The pure bright red color looked a little tacky on ordinary people, but it was just right on her body, and it made it more flattering. Her skin is as delicate as white jade, and a belt outlines her slender waist. As she walks, her perfect figure is even more eye-catching. Even in the palace with so many beauties, she still looks like that. The most dazzling pearl, apart from Qiao Qingyin, there was almost no one present who could compare with it.

Except for the two veterans, all the men present couldn't help but take a few more glances.

Zhen Ya walked out slowly, saluted the Queen Mother gracefully, and then told the whole story clearly and clearly.

"Targeting everything, what a skill." After listening to Zhenya briefly recounting what happened just now, the Queen Mother frowned immediately. Although she was not the winner of the previous palace fight and just watched the whole process, after all, she was Having stayed in the palace for so many years, I understand these methods very well.

"Is this targeting Mrs. Huang? Now that Duke Su is away on an expedition, only Mrs. Huang and her son are left in the Huang Mansion. Now he wants to take these opportunities to ridicule Mrs. Huang, and even do it secretly, and then leave Duke Su who is leading the army with nothing. As a result, he became resentful towards Daqi, and finally rebelled and brought chaos to the entire Xiliang. This caused the loss of our country, Daqi. Is it possible that you colluded with Dong Cao and the others?" Ji Ren said loudly.
  "What nonsense are you talking about?" Gu Shuangqin looked horrified and scolded quickly.

The biggest crime in Daqi was colluding with Dong Cao.

It is better to kill by mistake than to let go.

The expressions of the mother and son of the Yang family on the side changed imperceptibly. The process was wrong, but this was indeed their purpose.

In other words, the purpose of the people behind them is to use Xiliang to consume the national power of Qi.

Just not in such a rough way.

Thinking of this, Yang Xing glanced at his master's bag subconsciously, thinking that there should be no mistake.
