Chapter 145 Chapter 140 Five: Meeting

When the Advocacy Department moved out the Gujin Zheng, the officials of the Xuanbao Department of Zhuyuantai set up guards of honor on both sides of the Wuji Gate, and Daozi's chariot was pulled by two Kunchi god horses, one black and one white, which were said to be able to run on water. Leave Zuohefang.

Today's Li Zhaoxuan wears a black jacket, his hair is combed into a double bun, he wears colorful clothes with pleated purple trousers, and he wears black leather shoes.Following him, Che Yu, were officials from Zuohefang.

The Crane Square that works for Daozi is similar to the Chunfang in the East Palace, but the Crane Square is much simpler. After all, Daozi does not need to govern the country in the future, nor does he need to be familiar with government affairs in advance.

Officials such as Xima, attendants, and Zan followed behind the carriage. They have been in charge of books, meals, medicine, etc. in the palace since Daozi was young. The pure man handles secular affairs for Daozi.

Li Zhaoxuan entered Xuandu with Shen Qingteng a month ago, dressed in a white dragon fish suit, without any followers, only with dragon energy to protect his body, and his power is weak.

But right now, although there are a lot of people behind him, he is not proud of this style, he just feels that he is back in the shackles again.

He passed through the Wuji Gate by car and came to His Highness Chongxiao.On the west side of the steps of the hall, there is a washing machine, on the east side there is a crown mat, and under the main steps, there is a mat for unwinding swords.

Zuo Shuzi directed the music divisions, and Li Zhaoxuan untied the long sword around his waist in front of the banquet.

The long sword was ornately carved, decorated with gold and inlaid with jade, and was placed on the mat.Xie Jian is like resigning from office. Li Zhaoxuan's move means that from this moment on, he has completely given up his status as a prince in the secular world.

When putting down the sword, Li Zhaoxuan's heart was empty.He looked towards the west room, and it is said that when Zi Jiayuan was dressed, the emperor should also be wearing a crown and a crimson gauze robe, watching the ceremony here.

But at the west room right now, there is only a guard of honor representing the emperor, and there is no one.

Even though he knew that Emperor Dayong had no time to leave when he went to the west of the country, Li Zhaoxuan was still a little disappointed, as if he had never felt the love of his father since he was born.

He turned around and looked down the steps, glanced at the familiar faces, and then looked to the east of the Promise Gate. Seeing Shen Qingteng's smile from afar, he finally settled down.

He looked to the west of the Promise Gate and saw several elders from the Blue Sparrow Palace.Immediately afterwards, his eyes fell to the south again, and he saw Xu Yingqiu in the crowd.

In the early years, Li Zhaoxuan learned poetry from Xu Yingqiu, and has always admired this free and unrestrained bachelor.When Li Zhaoxuan saw Xu Yingqiu, the image of Li Chan immediately appeared in Li Zhaoxuan's heart. This heretical person was the only friend he had made since he left Beijing. He even envied Li Chan for his freedom.

Since Li Chan agreed to come, he should not miss the appointment, Li Zhaoxuan thought so, and looked at the crowd, but he did not see Li Chan.As soon as he thought about it, he thought that it was inconvenient for Li Chan to show up now, and even if he came, he would definitely change his appearance.

He turned around and stepped over the sword-releasing seat, and walked towards the Chongxiao Hall.

……

Daozi's Yuanfu ceremony was very complicated. After entering Chongxiao Hall, he humbly resigned according to the etiquette, and the Yuanfu ceremony officially started.After another blessing, Li Zhaoxuan was finally able to be crowned, and he changed into a gold-decorated Xianghu Xuanyi and plain clothes, and was conferred the position of Daozi by the supervisor of Qingque Palace and Zhuyuantai Sixuan.

After following such a set of etiquette, it was almost an hour and a half when Zuo Shuzi shouted out the ceremony.Behind this was another banquet for guests, after drinking a few times, the poor Taoist went in and out, and changed several sets of clothes.

When everyone left the palace, it was already sunset, and the hood of Yanshenmen got off the car and floated away like Yanghua.

On the west side of the palace city, Xu Yingqiu was walking with several literati, discussing about Daozi, when they passed under a big elm tree, there was a sound of horseshoes from behind, followed by a call: "Xu Lang."

When Xu Yingqiu heard the voice, he recognized Li Chan's voice.He raised his thick eyebrows, turned his head in surprise, and in the shade of the tree, a white horse slowly walked up and down.

The person on the horse didn't look like Li Chan, but his figure was very similar to the Li Chan in Xu Yingqiu's impression.Coupled with that voice that was almost identical to Li Chan, Xu Yingqiu guessed the identity of the visitor without looking closely.

He cupped his hands to the others and said with a smile: "Everyone go first, I'll come back later."

After several literati left, Li Chan got off his horse in front of the elm tree and smiled at Xu Yingqiu, "Long time no see."

Xu Yingqiu looked at Li Chan, and said with emotion: "I only heard that you were taken away by Shen Zhasi, and I never heard from you again, but I didn't expect to see you again at Dao Ziyuan's ceremony. Where are you hiding these days?" gone?"

"I'm hiding on Luming Mountain." Bai Zai snorted, and Li Chan held the rein, "The other day you asked a servant to deliver a half-column poem, and I haven't thanked you in person for Jiu Niang and San Lang."

Xu Yingqiu said with a smile: "There is no need to be formal, I think the second half of the song you completed is even more amazing. There are already many singers singing this song in the Chu Pavilion in the brothel. Although there are no one who can play the five-stringed pipa, there are some who are good at playing the five-stringed pipa. Based on the melody they heard at the Wangque Terrace that day, they filled in another 28-tune tune called "Jue Ming". I heard that the "Jue Ming Song" that has been circulated in the market has seven Eight editions."

Li Chan said: "I guess Xu Lang should be responsible for the widespread spread of this song? As for who is most familiar with the score, except for me, only Xu Lang has read the original score."

"I can't hide it from you." Xu Yingqiu laughed, "Although Yangmen is in decline in the temple, it is like a fish in water in the rivers and lakes. You killed people for righteousness and a heroic act. How can Xiyishan discredit you with a few words? You walked with me just now. The few people here also praised you very much. If it's convenient for you, why don't you go for a drink together?"

"Of course I can trust Xu Lang's friends, but there are so many people in the market, I still don't show my face." Li Chan declined, and then said with emotion: "I'm just avenging my friends. No compliments."

Xu Yingqiu said: "It's rare for you to be so transparent. Indeed, if the world praises you as a white wall, they will not tolerate any flaws in you. If you don't think about these false names, you will be much more at ease." Having said this, Xu Yingqiu suddenly showed a trace of Smiling, "By the way, a nun from the Great Bodhi Temple asked me about you a few days ago."

When Li Chan heard about the Great Bodhi Temple, he asked, "Master Lianyi?"

"That's right, it's Master Lianyi." Xu Yingqiu said intentionally, "It's said that Master Lianyi is the reincarnation of a Bodhisattva, and she pays attention to you. Could it be that you have moved her?" Perhaps few people would dare to joke about the Great Bodhi Temple, but Obviously, Xu Yingqiu is one of them.

Li Chan smiled and shook his head, "Master Lianyi and I just met by chance. The sheet music you saw was obtained by me and Master Lianyi after beheading demons on Mount Wu. At that time, I promised that if I could find When someone played this song, she was the first one to invite her to listen to it, but she broke her promise."

Xu Yingqiu suddenly realized, smiled and said: "It turns out that you deceived her."

Li Chan sighed: "It is also forced by the situation."

Xu Yingqiu was silent for a while, and then said: "It's Chunhe Jingming, why are you sighing?" His tone paused, "Since you don't go drinking, this weather is suitable for traveling. I heard that spring water is proliferating by the Luming Mountain, so you might as well call Three or five friends, let’s take a trip to the outskirts of the city? If it’s convenient, I’ll come to Luming Mountain to look for you tomorrow.”

Li Chan looked up and saw that the sky was bright among the elm leaves.When Daozi added yuan clothes, Yousi performed the magic of telepathy. It is said that there will be no clouds for the next three days. For the spring in Xuandu, this is a rare weather in ten years. He smiled and said: "That's good."
