Tan'er was suddenly called to a halt, and her eyes suddenly became alert.

"What to do? The white-haired old Taoist priest seemed to feel that he was a little unreasonable, and hurriedly said:"Female donor, don't be afraid. I am a Taoist priest who travels around. He feels that the scripture you are holding looks familiar and wants to take a look.""

Tan'er thought for a moment.

Then he looked at the white-haired old man with a charitable look, nodded and said,"Then take a look."

He handed the scripture to the white-haired old Taoist.

The old Taoist stretched out his hands and took it respectfully.

"Tao, the wonderful principle of virtual communication, the righteousness of all living beings……"

"To the profound truth, it leads to the birth of all things……"

When the white-haired old man read the beginning of these sentences, his pupils suddenly shrank.

His expression became more solemn, and he stood there blankly, his eyes extremely contracted.

Not long after.

His hand holding the scripture began to tremble slightly, and he murmured:"Junior Brother Cheng...how is this possible?"……"

Tan'er looked at the white-haired old man acting mysteriously.

She quickly said:"It's dark, I won't tell you that much."

As she said that, she grabbed the scripture.

Without waiting for the two Taoist priests to react, they ran away in a hurry.

The white-haired Taoist priest seemed to have entered the void, and it took him a while to react.

He frowned and said,"Where is the female donor just now?"

Another younger Taoist priest said,"Master, he has left. What did you see just now? Why is his face so solemn?"

The white-haired Taoist priest's Taoist name was Huang Guanzi. A native of Yong County, Qizhou.

His name is Li Chunfeng.

Together with Cheng Xuanying and Yuan Tiangang, we went out to Ziyun Temple in Zhongnan Mountain!

They are three senior brothers in the same sect.

Yuan Tiangang ranked first, Li Chunfeng second, and Cheng Xuanying third.

In the fifth year of Wude, Cheng Xuanying, known as a Taoist genius, suddenly disappeared.

Li Chunfeng and Yuan Tiangang were filled with grief.

After that, Li Chunfeng handed over Ziyun Temple to Ma Youzhen, the current owner of the temple.

He himself traveled around the world with his young apprentice.

The purpose is just to find the missing Cheng Xuanying.

This time it has been nine years.

During this period, he never saw Cheng Xuanying.

Now I suddenly saw the"Tao De Zhen Jing Yi Shu".

Li Chunfeng was actually a little dazed

《"Tao De Zhen Jing Yi Shu" is the deepest commentary on Lao Tzu's"Tao De Jing".

Only the Taoist genius Cheng Xuanying knew this kind of annotation.

With the disappearance of Cheng Xuanying, the"Tao De Zhen Jing Yi Shu" was also lost to the world.

Now that Li Chunfeng suddenly saw it, how could he not be excited?

Listening to his disciple's questions, Li Chunfeng said:"No... nothing? By the way, you can go to Ziyun Temple tomorrow and mobilize the disciples to find the girl just now."

The disciple said hesitantly:"Master, tomorrow is the birthday of Emperor Taizu, and I also want to pay my respects."

Li Chunfeng said:"You, you! We are monks, so what do we care about fame and fortune?"

"All right"

……

Early this morning.

The imperial city gate of Taiji Palace opened the middle gate.

Generally speaking, the middle door of Jinglongmen is not open.

On weekdays, it includes important festivals such as the Imperial Court or the New Year.

Officials still had to enter the palace through the left and right side doors of Jinglong Gate.

The key scene is the central gate of the dragon gate.

Unless there is a sacrifice or major event.

Such as today.

Li Shimin personally opened the door for Li Yuan.

The Qianniu Guards honor guard led the way.

Li Yuan sat in the chariot and closed his eyes tightly.

After arriving at Jinglongmen, Li Yuan opened his eyes slightly.

He looked back hard and looked at the majestic and profound Tai Chi Palace.

He seemed to know that when he went to Daxing Palace this time, he was afraid that he would never be able to return to Taiji Palace again.

My second son finally took such a ruthless step.

Although it is called Li Yuan's birthday in the year of his destiny.

But Li Yuan knew that Li Shimin was just looking for an opportunity to drive him out of Tai Chi Palace.

After all, how could there be two emperors in one palace?

Li Shimin led hundreds of officials to bow to Li Yuan.

After a long time.

Li Shimin cried to Li Yuan and said:"Father, you go to Daxing Palace first. Today, your descendants will celebrate your birthday. Tomorrow... I will celebrate your birthday with all the officials in person."

Li Yuan looked at Li Shimin with a dark expression and said :"Okay! Shimin is interested."

Li Shimin was still crying.

The drama is well done.

After being reminded by Fang Xuanling and others, Li Shimin pretended to wipe his tears and said to Qianniu Wei:"Open the way!"

……

Daxing Palace.

Also in Chang'an.

It's not far from Tai Chi Palace.

The distance is not far, but it is already far away from the center of power.

Winter, November, the fourth year of Zhenguan.

Li Yuanyuan left Daxing Palace, and the relationship between father and son was completely broken at this moment.

When Li Yuan arrived at Tai Chi Palace.

There are already many people waiting here.

Headed by Prince Li Chengqian.

All the princes and princesses lined up to greet Li Yuan.

Li Yuan held a banquet to entertain the emperor's grandson and granddaughter.

During the banquet.

Li Chengqian started and said to Li Yuan:"Grandpa Huang, Sun Chen Su heard that Grandpa Huang loved me, the ancestor of the Li family, and today I invited Master Zhongnanshan to annotate the Tao Te Ching for Grandpa Huang."》"

The reason why the Tang Dynasty believed in and respected Taoism.

Faith is only one aspect.

The biggest aspect is political needs.

The society was in turmoil at the end of the Sui Dynasty. In the 13th year of Sui Daye's reign, Li Yuan, Li Shimin and others launched an army in Jinyang to rebel against the Sui Dynasty. In order to gain support from society, they used Taoism and Laozi to claim that Li Yuan would be ordered to receive orders.

In this way, they can sit on the Ninth Five-Year Plan honorably.

In addition, Li Yuan began to compile again, taking Laozi as his Li ancestor.

This move was also planned and purposeful to use Lao Tzu to perform political services for him, Li Tang.

I have to say that the Li family really took the political fishing boat to the extreme.

Li Yuan heard Li Chengqian calling for Master Ziyun Guanma.

He smiled and said:"Prince, you are thoughtful. Grandpa likes it."

Not long after.

Horse Palm's Immortal Wind Taoist Master came over.

Li Yuan looked at him with a smile:"Master Ma Tianshi, your master Li Chunfeng, uncle Cheng Xuanying, and Yuan Tiangang are all close friends of me and you!"

"I would say that your three masters and uncles are the mostYes, that’s still Cheng Xuanying"

"It's a pity that the Tao Te Ching he commented on has been lost, otherwise I would really want to hear it!"

Li Yuan was preaching to Ma Youzhen.

Tan'er's face, who was sitting next to Princess Xiangcheng, changed.

Cheng Xuanying?

How do you feel that you have heard this name before?

Princess Xiangcheng saw that Tan'er looked wrong and said,"Tan'er, Are you nervous? Tan'er shook his head:"

No.""

"What do you give to Grandpa Huang?

Tan'er said,"It's also a scripture. I copied it by myself.""

Xiangcheng nodded. She knew that Tan'er's annotations on the scriptures were definitely not as good as those of Ma Zhangjiao.

But in any case, it could be regarded as borrowing flowers to offer to the Buddha.

At this time, Ma Youzhen said to Li Yuan in a panic:"I am ashamed of myself. I can't compare to Master Cheng Xuanying..

Li Yuan smiled and said:"It doesn't matter, the younger generation is to be feared. Come on, read your comments on the Tao Te Ching to me.""

"good!"Master Ma Zhang smiled heartily and began to recite the sutra.

"In the Tao of Fu, the original form is void, chaotic and natural, and the two rituals are born from it.……"

A commentary on a sutra can be read in about half the time it takes to hold an incense stick.

Li Yuan was very excited when he heard this and said:"Okay, this is a new way of commenting on the Tao Te Ching of our ancestors. It's not bad."

Ma Zhangjiao smiled and said:"It's all the work of the prince."

Li Yuan nodded:"You have your heart, prince. In the future this The world is entrusted to you. You must be worthy of our ancestors of the Li family, you know?"

Li Chengqian quickly clasped his fists and said:"Yes! Grandpa Huang! Sun Chen will never let down the hard work of Grandpa Huang and his father."
