Xianwu: Opening and Hua Xiaolan's Apprenticeship with Shaolin

Xiaolong has already begun to fantasize, fascinated by the heroic appearance of thousands of girls.

"If I become the Imperial Forest Army, and I pass the exam, I will be both civil and military, and it will definitely make a sensation in the entire court!"

The more Xiaolong was, the more happy he was, and he couldn't wait to go to the capital.

And Xiaohu is also excited:

"I can go to the capital! I'm going to tell my family the good news."

If he goes to the capital, it will take at least a month, so Xiaohu wants to say goodbye to his family.

"Xiao Hu, when we become the Imperial Forest Army, we can also receive monthly money, so that you can send money to your family." Xiao Long reminded.

"They will be very happy when they know it." Xiaohu was very happy.

Xiaolan heard the movement here and ran over and asked:

"Abbot, Xiaolong and Xiaohu are going to the capital, what about me? Did your majesty say to summon me?"

She didn't want any fame and fortune, mainly because before, Queen Zhou said that Xiaolan's mother was still alive.

So Xiaolan also wants to go to the capital, maybe she can find out the specific news of her mother.

"Xiaolan, the Imperial Forest Army only accepts men, not girls." Xiaolong reminded: "You must know that the law of the Great Ming does not allow women to join the army."

The abbot also shook his head and said:

"Xiao Lan, the edict does not mention you,

However, with Zhou Yuan's name on it, the emperor summoned Zhou Yuan to the capital. "

"The emperor wants Brother Zhou Yuan to be the Imperial Forest Army?" Xiao Lan was a little surprised.

If Zhou Yuan entered the capital, she would definitely go with her.

"There is no such meaning in the edict." Abbot Sanzang said: "Also, Zhou Yuan has been named the king of Beiliang County, and it is impossible for him to join the Imperial Forest Army."

The abbot did not know why the emperor summoned Zhou Yuan to the capital.

"Xiao Lan, this is the emperor's decree, there is no way to refuse." Xiaolong said:

"When we go to the capital, we will naturally know why the emperor summoned Zhou Yuan."

Zhou Yuan also overheard the conversations of several people.

He did not object to going to the capital,

This is an opportunity to increase your experience and see the scenery of the Ming Dynasty.

"Abbot, can I go with Brother Zhou Yuan?" Xiaolan asked.

"Of course." The abbot nodded and said:

"I will personally take you to the capital, after all, the journey is long, and none of you have traveled far.

We still have three days to prepare, and in three days, we will set off for the capital. "

then,

Xiaohu went home and explained the situation to his family.

And Xiaolan started to pack her luggage and helped Zhou Yuan sort out her clothes very thoughtfully.

Xiaolong is preparing to bring the Four Books and Five Classics, as well as various books related to the imperial examination, to prepare for the Spring Festival.

Apart from clothing,

Zhou Yuan only wore one painting, which was the Floating Life Painting Scroll of Beauty.

All of Zhou Yuan's harvests can be preserved here, everything.

Open the beauty map,

You can see a very wonderful scenery,

The sea of ​​flowers and medicinal fields, the holy water of Lingchi... The beauties perform their duties, and the beauty is overwhelming.

The thousand-year-old peach tree in the picture before,

It has also been planted, planted next to the Lingchi, and rooted in the soil.

Although the peach tree spirit was uprooted by Zhou Yuan and suffered serious injuries,

But the picture scroll was full of fairy spirit, and she quickly recovered.

The peach blossoms are full of trees, and the fallen flowers are colorful!

The five beauties in the painting are laughing and chatting under the tree, and their relationship is very friendly.

The Peach Blossom Demon also gradually integrated into it.

And she gave herself a name called Taoyao.

The small world in the picture scroll is thriving, and Zhou Yuan is also quite pleased.

Two days later...

It is the day to set off for the capital,

Abbot Sanzang personally drove the carriage,

Carry Zhou Yuan, Xiaolan, Xiaolong, Xiaohu to the capital.

Along the way, several people were talking and laughing,

Especially Xiaolan, who kept flipping through the edict and reading it.

"Follow the sky to carry the goods, the emperor decreed:

Please ask the abbot of Sanzang of Shaolin Temple to immediately lead the lay disciples Tang Xialong and Chen Xiaohu to escort Zhouyuan, the king of Beiliang County, to Beijing to face the saint!

Appreciate this! "

Hearing Xiaolan reciting the edict, Xiaolong said impatiently:

"Just forgive me, you have read this edict at least ten times."

"I'm studying the writing of the edict." Xiaolan explained forcefully.

Just a few simple sentences, what kind of writing did you come from?

It's just that she is relatively new. This is the emperor's edict, and most people really can't see it.

So Xiaolan wanted to do some research and look at the words on the edict.

"Okay, I admit that I'm illiterate." Xiaohu said helplessly: "Xiaolan, if you continue to read like this, it will make me seem very illiterate."

Among the three, only Xiaohu was illiterate.

Because he has been busy with farm work since he was a child, he has never attended a private school.

And although Xiaolan is also from a farm family, she has also read a lot of books.

Especially with Zhou Yuan, reading and recognizing.

"The edict doesn't seem to say that you are asked to be the Imperial Forest Army, and it doesn't reveal the reason why the emperor wants to summon brother Zhou Yuan."

Xiaolan studied the imperial edict, but also wanted to analyze the emperor's intentions.

"Xiaolan, Wang Daosen told me about the Yulin Army, so there shouldn't be any fakes." Abbot Sanzang explained, and said helplessly:

"However, Wang Daosen did not disclose the reason for Zhou Yuan's entry into the capital. It should be a confidential matter."

A group of people drove a carriage, along the official road, all the way to the capital.

It is getting closer and closer to the capital.

I saw a lot of scenery along the way.

Just as a few people were on their way,

In a cloth shop in Beijing,

A couple, namely the shopkeeper and the proprietress, are doing the reckoning.

"... This month, we sold [-] more than last month. The quality of silk received after the New Year is very good, and the income has doubled compared to the previous month."

The shopkeeper, Li Fugui, took a pen and ink to outline the drawing, very happy, and said to the proprietress:

"God has eyes! Madam, our days will get better and better."

"It is thanks to Shui girl, who cooperated with us, that we can earn double the money. We should thank her well."

The shopkeeper's wife is also very pleased. The business has been really good recently, and she has made more money.

The water girl in her mouth is Shui Sheng,

Shui Sheng helped Zhou Yuan manage the business, and cooperated with the Shen family to expand the business scope from the Jiangnan area to the capital.

This silk shop is one of the beneficiaries.

"I heard that Miss Shui is also working for a big man, and I don't know who this big man is?"

The showcase was chatting with his wife while calculating the account.

"The people who can develop power in the capital must be officials from the DPRK and China," said the female shopkeeper.

She was also a good helper, made a pot of tea, poured a cup out, and prepared to hand it to her husband.

At this moment,

The shopkeeper and the shopkeeper's wife didn't notice,

A black shadow moved into the house from the crack of the door, against the ground.

This shadow is not a person, but a real shadow!

The shadow came to the house and attacked the shadow of the shopkeeper!

This scene is really weird!

It's even scarier than hell.

The female shopkeeper was completely frightened and her scalp was numb.

Even the teacup in his hand fell to the ground, splashing hot tea.

She exclaimed, putting her hands over her mouth, unbelievable!
