At this time, in front of Princess Kang, an imposing middle-aged man was listening to the princess. After she finished speaking, Qianyu asked softly: "Dragon King, what can you do about the empress?"
"The princess wants a child, and Prince Kang also wants a child, but he is afraid of others' suspicion and the mouths of the people in the world. This does not depend on the people in the world, but on the princess and the prince. Moreover, the child you want is not your biological child. It will be a problem in the future. As for where the child will come from, it will be solved in the end based on your status, so this matter does not depend on me, but on the Queen Kang herself." The middle-aged man almost hit the point in Princess Kang's heart.
"I took the liberty." Princess Kang pondered for a while and seemed to have figured it out, but she didn't seem to have fully figured it out, with a little regret.
By the time Princess Kang and his party came out, the sun had already set. If they went down the mountain at this time, they could have rushed down the mountain when it got dark, but the princess obviously wouldn't do that.
"Your Majesty, the group of people from before also followed an old Taoist priest into the backyard." At this time, one of the princess's guards also came up to report.
"Your Majesty, I'm just saying that they must have a purpose for coming to the mountain." Qianyu also came up to confirm, obviously the ill feeling that Lin Haoming brought to her was still fermenting.
Princess Kang was still worried about what happened just now, and she couldn't hear it now. But just when she was about to refuse, she suddenly remembered that Qian Yu had said before that the other party was also a heavenly master, and the Dragon King seemed to treat them specially. , although this matter is difficult for her to handle, there may be other ways.
Thinking of this, Princess Kang said: "Since the Dragon King invites them in, it makes sense, so don't talk too much. They are also experts in Xuanmen. Maybe there are things that need them."
"Empress, do you have other plans?" Qianyu asked.
"Stay here first and wait until tomorrow to see if they come down the mountain." Princess Kang decided.
Seeing this, she could only leave with him and go to the inn opposite, and the temple did not provide accommodation for anyone.
But this rule was unexpectedly broken by Princess Kang, because after Lin Haoming and his party went to the backyard, they did not come out after dark, and dark was also the time when the Dragon Temple was closed. Apparently they lived in the temple. Inside.
At the inn window, Qianyu looked at the closed temple door, frowned and said, "My Lady, they are also members of the Xuanmen. Maybe they have known each other for a long time. This is normal."
"I'm not thinking about this, but being able to be treated like this by the Protector Dragon shows that the previous rumors do have some truth."
Lin Haoming and others were indeed kept in the temple. The reason was very simple. They were discussing the way of heaven with each other. There were very few people in the world who could understand the way of heaven. It was rare to meet one and they had new opinions, so naturally they would not give up. Just leave like this. Although it can't be said to be a candlelit night talk, it's still fun.
It was already the afternoon of the next day when Lin Haoming and his party left. When they came down from Longshou Mountain, they did not encounter Princess Kang and her party. Since they didn't meet them, they didn't care. However, when they were about to reach the foot of the mountain, they caught up with them. It turned out that the group of them was also waiting for Lin Haoming and others to go down the mountain the next day, but no one was seen at noon and they did not wait to go down. They went down the mountain after lunch.
Because we had gone down the mountain earlier, we finally caught up with him near dusk, so we returned to the inn together.
There was no communication along the way, but when they were about to rest at the inn, Qianyu came over and said: "Guys, the princess would like to thank the previous few for letting me stay in the room. The princess will go back tomorrow, so I would like to treat you to a banquet tonight."
Several people, and the empress has heard about the Heavenly Master for a long time, and wants to discuss some Zen ideas with the Heavenly Master."
"This?" Wuniu heard that he wanted to discuss Zen with himself. He was not afraid of some things at first, but after all, the other party's special status made him hesitate a little, and subconsciously glanced at Lin Haoming.
Lin Haoming smiled and said: "Princess Kang has such good intentions, so naturally we are disrespectful."
Seeing Lin Haoming agree, Qianyu went back to resume his life even though he didn't like him.
Although it is just an inn at the foot of the mountain, after all, this inn also has dignitaries as its main guests, so the conditions are naturally quite good. The inn also has private dining rooms, and the decoration is quite elegant, in line with the preferences of literati.
The princess held a banquet here. Although her identity was somewhat inconsistent, after all, she came here incognito this time and no one knew.
After the group was brought by Qianyu, it took a while for the princess to come over.
Because of her status as empress, although she sat at the same table, there was Qian Yu, the personal maid, on one side, and He Wanfeng, the wife of the Heavenly Master, on the other side. This could be considered as a distinction between men and women.
Because she was away from home, she was exempted from all the etiquette. However, when the empress came, she still wore a veil and did not show her true face.
After the necessary polite greetings, Princess Kang also quickly mentioned the Dragon King and said: "I have met the Dragon King before, and several of them were also stayed by the Dragon King. It seems that some of them also have friendship with the Dragon King."
When it came to talking about things, Wanniu couldn't talk about it casually, but Lin Haoming took the initiative and said indifferently: "Speaking of which, this is the first time we have met him, so maybe we are destined."
"Oh, I thought you and Dragon King were old acquaintances." Princess Kang was a little surprised this time.
"Perhaps this is fate, just like it is fate that we met here. I heard from Miss Qianyu that the queen is going back, and we are going to the capital to see Mingde's child." Lin Haoming said with a smile.
.
"If that's the case, you can come with me and listen to the wise words of Zen masters on the way." Princess Kang was quite polite to them at the moment, but she thought about what she originally wanted to say and didn't want to say it right away.
speak out.
Lin Haoming naturally smiled and said: "Your Majesty, with your wisdom, we are naturally willing to preach."
Lin Haoming's smile made people think that this person was just like other vulgar people, just to please the flatterers, but before he went up the mountain to deliberately compose poems, this made people unable to see through him.
But after saying this, he stopped talking. It was time for Wu Niu to ask: "I don't know what you want to know?"
"Tianshi Lin has become a heavenly master at a young age, so he must be very talented. I want to ask about the way of nature first, especially the way of nature for humans." Princess Kang said thoughtfully.
"The way of nature is to follow the changes of nature. The change of day and night, and the changes of the four seasons must go with nature..." Wu Niu quickly said what he had learned, and generally it was also what the so-called Taoist masters said.
There is no difference.
Princess Kang had obviously heard this too many times, but she still listened patiently and then asked: "What if people can't follow the way of nature?"
