Chapter 88 Golden Signboard
The long-bearded servant glanced at the young Taoist priest, and his smile subsided little by little: "That's a long story. I call you Master Xiao Luo, so you should know why His Royal Highness sent you into the palace, right?"

"Of course I want Pindao to groom the prince!"

The young Taoist priest nodded, pointed to the leather box at his waist and said, "A set of tools made by Master Luo, which Pindao always carries with him."

The servant with long beard nodded: "His Royal Highness feels a little...unhappy these days. Several servants who waited on the appearance have been executed, and now no one dares to approach His Highness. Our family really has no choice. Suddenly I remembered that Master Luo of the previous dynasty, although he has become an immortal, there may still be heirs alive, and after asking, it is indeed the case, so I came to invite him."

As he said that, he fixed his eyes on the young Taoist priest: "Renren Luo can straighten up Longyan for the two previous kings. Since Master Luo has to pass on his mantle, it should be no problem, right?"

Hearing that this trip was so dangerous, the young Taoist priest couldn't help showing a solemn look on his face, but now that he's already in the car, it's not so easy to think about it.

He took a deep breath, and asked solemnly: "Mr. Long Beard, can you tell me what troubles His Highness the Son of Heaven recently? It's not that the poor want to spy on the Prince Chu, but he doesn't know. Get involved on Longbeard's head?"

The long-bearded waiter's face changed slightly: "Master Xiao Luo's words are reasonable! Our family sees you as a measured person who knows how to advance and retreat... Forget it! Let's take some risks and say a few words..."

"I would like to hear the details!" The young Taoist immediately made a gesture of all ears.

The long-bearded servant immediately came over and said in a low voice: "There is a princess who was born in Yuanhou's mansion. He has been in and out of the palace since he was a child, and he has a very close relationship with the son of the world. The original lord and all the nobles in the palace are happy to see his success. A month ago, the Fubo army triumphantly returned, and the king had already intended to marry him. Who knows..."

Seeing that the other party hesitated to speak, the young Taoist simply took the initiative to speak: "Everyone in the country knows that Mrs. Yuanhou is the only younger sister in the world. Her daughter and the eldest son are cousins, and they are the closest. Listen to Mr. Long Beard It means that the two nobles are childhood sweethearts and have been close since childhood, so they are a match made in heaven, so what could happen?"

The long-bearded servant sighed: "Three days ago, His Highness suddenly made a... mistake, so he locked himself in the study in the Shaoyang courtyard and refused to see anyone. The servants are not allowed in."

"After the princess heard about it, she came to visit in person, but she was also turned away. I don't know what the two nobles said through the door. In the end, the princess left in tears."

Speaking of this, the long-bearded servant's eyes showed some inexplicable meaning: "I shouldn't have told you these things, but after the two nobles broke up unhappy, His Highness called several daily attendants The servants went in. It stands to reason that these people were all old and trusted by His Highness, but without exception, they were all executed by the Eldest Son himself!"

The young Taoist priest couldn't help being stunned, and quickly lowered his voice: "Why is this? Even the common people in the market know that His Royal Highness is the most lenient towards others, and the palace people around him can't bear to be harsh when they make mistakes. Number of people?"

His eyes flickered, and he bowed his hands solemnly to the other party: "Dare to ask Mr. Long Beard, what happened to His Highness?"

"It's inconvenient to tell you about it in detail. You will know it when you enter the Shaoyang courtyard later."

The long-bearded servant shook his head, and said in a deep voice: "Master Xiao Luo just needs to be extremely careful and use all his skills. Just remember one thing. After you see His Highness, you can say something about the princess. Don't even mention it, even Yuan Hou and his wife and Fu Bojun... Oh, don't even mention the snow chi beast!"

At this moment, the young Taoist priest still doesn't know that he was dragged by the terrified servants to block his death on this trip.

It's no wonder that such a trivial matter as hiring a hair-shaving master from outside the palace was actually done by a long-bearded man himself, and he even used the most respectable snow chi beast in the capital to drive him.

The long-bearded man in front of him was very kind to tell him the truth.

Immediately, the young Taoist bowed his hands to the other party and said sincerely: "Thank you, Mr. Long Beard, for speaking out!"

The long-bearded servant waved his hands indifferently, with no trace of guilt on his face.

In his opinion, isn't this the bowl of rice that Master Xiao Luo eats?The so-called companion is like a tiger, and the prince is also a prince, how can it be possible to not take any risks?

Do you really think that the real Luo back then could please the two former rulers one after another just by shaving his hair and face?Not to mention that there is also a tyrannical and inhuman last king of subjugation.Indifferent to a real person?Hey!I'm afraid only a fool would believe it.

But then again, since the golden signboard of "Rectify Longyan" has been put up, it is not easy to get it, but it will be even more difficult to keep it!
Whether this master Xiao Luo will be successful or die will depend on his ability and good luck.

The silent atmosphere in the car didn't last long, and the snow chi beast car slowly stopped outside a palace gate.

The long-bearded servant took the young Taoist priest out of the car, and the gate guard inspected the waist plate and checked the whole body.

During the inspection, the leather case at the waist of the young Taoist priest was taken care of. Every item inside was traced one by one, and the material and size were recorded.

While waiting patiently, the eyes of the young Taoist priests kept turning around the gatekeepers with big arms and round waists in green armor.

After tossing and tossing for a while, the two finally passed through the palace gate and stepped into a not-so-wide corridor.

The long-bearded servant then introduced softly as he walked: "The guards just now are all warriors selected from thousands of people in the Intestine Camp. On the battlefield, they all regard one as ten, and they are called rampant men! The Marquis of Neihuang, who has made great military exploits, stands out from Jieshi, who is running rampant in the Wuchang Camp!"

The young Taoist priest nodded and said with emotion: "They are indeed rare warriors. This time I have gained a lot of experience! Pindao really can't imagine how heroic the Marquis of Neihuang who led eight hundred gutless cities and mountains, and ran rampant in the world !"

"Our family is very knowledgeable. I don't want the tools handed down by Master Luo to be so exquisite and complicated!" The long-bearded servant pointed to the leather box on the young Taoist priest's waist and praised.

Hearing this, the young Taoist priest naturally had to say a few words modestly: "It's just based on the purpose, and the division is more detailed. In addition to several kinds of knives for shaving the head and face, there are combs and combs for combing hair. When going forward, This set of things has already been circulated in the palace, apart from the title of Master Luo personally making this set, no matter the material or workmanship, it is actually nothing."

When he was talking, he looked around as quietly as possible, wanting to see more about Ouchi.It's a pity that there are high walls on both sides of the corridor, blocking most of the view, and only some towering eaves of the hall can be seen.

The pace of the two was not slow, but they still walked for a long time before they arrived in front of a grand palace named Shaoyang Yuan.

This time, accompanied by a long-bearded servant, the young Taoist priest passed through the corridors and around the hall without hindrance, and finally entered a very quiet and elegant courtyard.

There are only three main rooms in the courtyard, and several coral trees are planted under the south window with green leaves.

Now is the season of fruit bearing, these coral trees are full of fruits, each one is full of orange red, crystal clear like jade, very pleasing to the eye.

The long-bearded attendant raised his hand to signal the young Taoist to stop, then walked alone to the closed door of the main hall, bowed his body and said softly: "Your Highness, this old servant has invited Daoist Xiao Luo here."

The young Taoist priest stood in the courtyard with his eyes downcast and silent. The long-bearded servant never asked his name and Taoist name from the beginning to the end.

So far, the only reason why he can stand here is because he is regarded as the descendant of that Master Luo.

It seemed like a long time before someone finally answered the door: "Let him come in by himself."

Hearing this, the young Taoist suddenly raised his head, saw the long-bearded servant nodded slightly to him, immediately walked up the steps quickly, and pushed lightly on the closed door.

Squeak...the door opened in response.

The young Taoist priest smiled casually, shook his sleeves immediately, and walked in with his head held high.
