On the beach in Dengzhou, there is a small pavilion built halfway up the mountain.
Li Rong shook his head, which was still aching, and muttered dissatisfiedly to Wang Yuanzhi, who was sitting in front of him: "If you hadn't gone yesterday, I wouldn't have made them suffer so miserably..."
"Oh?" Wang Yuanzhi was sipping some tea at the moment. Hearing this, he put down the tea cup in his hand and looked at Li Rong with a smile: "You kid, why do you blame Pindao? Didn't Pindao tell you that that man had a tattoo on his back?
Countless karmic debts make you stay away from him? You obviously couldn't bear your thoughts and secretly ran to see him. Now you have suffered a loss and think about Pindao again? "
"Karmic debt?" Li Rong heard what Wang Yuanzhi said, but he snorted unconvinced: "What kind of karmic debt? Why can't I see it? I think that although this person behaves badly, he has a pure heart. How could he have such a debt?"
He's burdened with karmic debt? Besides, I've settled it for him... ahem, he's definitely not a bad person."
"Evil person? The poor Taoist has never said that this person's karmic debt comes from himself, so why is he evil?" Wang Yuanzhi glanced at Li Rong, the smile on his face was still kind.
However, for some reason, Li Rong suddenly felt that at this moment, his uncle, who had always been calm and gentle, with no trace of fireworks on his face, was clearly more solemn.
"Repaying karmic debts due to doubts, embarrassment and imprisonment in form. True and ordinary body in empty tribulation, floating and phantom body. There is no duality in the element, and I have no words to speak to Manjusri."
Shaking his head slightly, Wang Yuanzhi stood up sadly, looked at the sea in the distance that had become turbulent due to the rising tide, and said slowly: "Karmic debt is caused by things and destroyed by people. It is not driven by the mind, but it is difficult to escape."
"What, what, what? Uncle Master, what are you talking about? Why can't I understand a word of it?"
Li Rong frowned and looked at Wang Yuanzhi dissatisfied. He thought to himself, since we are all in the same unit, why can't we not be pretentious? Can you make it clearer?
When Wang Yuanzhi heard this, he chuckled, shook his head and said, "You should understand later!"
"Will you understand later? Why later? I'm obviously not young anymore!" Li Rong became anxious when he saw Wang Yuanzhi refused to say it clearly. He jumped up and was about to pull Wang Yuanzhi away. Unexpectedly, he was so drunk yesterday that he jumped like this.
, I felt dizzy and almost fell to the ground.
"Hiss, it hurts!"
After Li Rong held on to his head, which seemed to be about to split, and managed to stand still, he found that Wang Yuanzhi had drifted away along the mountain road.
And on the sea he had just seen, there was a large ship with full sails, sailing quickly westward in the rolling torrent!
If Li Rong had a telescope with him at this time, then he would definitely be able to find that the big ship with the wind and waves was carrying the person they were talking about just now, Xiao Han!
The secret message was received in the morning.
Xiao Han, Liu Hongji and others set sail at noon!
On the boat, except for necessary drinking water and food, they brought nothing else that was cumbersome!
Even the original plan to go all the way east, circle around Shandong, and finally land in Haizhou was changed to return to Qingzhou by sea, just to be one step ahead and get back to Chang'an!
"Xiao Han, why is Your Majesty summoning you and me back in such a hurry?"
On the constantly bumping ship, Liu Hongji asked Xiao Han with a solemn expression.
When Xiao Han heard this, he shook his head.
I don’t know whether it was because the news was leaked or what, but there were very few words in the secret letter. It only said that I and Liu Hongji should return to Chang’an as soon as possible, and nothing else was written!
However, when he saw the words on the secret letter, Xiao Han recognized it at a glance: the words were not written by anyone else, but by Xiao Lizi himself! The handwriting was scrawled, and at first glance, it was written in a hurry!
The emperor, who had even the imperial decrees written by eunuchs, wrote the letter himself, and he was still so anxious between the lines!
No need to guess, something big must have happened!
When I think about it today, I have been feeling restless, my eyelids are twitching, and Xiao Han's heart gradually sinks!
He couldn't remember what major events had happened in the Tang Dynasty during this period of history!
But a history book is compiled and written by later generations, and it will not cover everything and record everything.
The second is that Xiao Han's own existence has long affected many historical processes. For example, Goguryeo this time did not exist in the original history.
Therefore, Xiao Han was even more uncertain as to why Xiao Lizi was so anxious and recalled him to Chang'an!
The eighth day of July!
The ship finally arrived in Qingzhou, Xiao Han and others abandoned the ship and chose fast horses to continue heading west!
On the tenth day of the lunar month, everyone went to Gunzhou, on the twelfth day they went to Bianzhou, on the fourteenth day they went to Henan Prefecture, and on the sixteenth day they went to Chang'an!
Along the way, Xiao Han, Liu Hongji and others were just like the post envoys on their way, changing horses without changing people, galloping all the way to the west!
Except for eating and sleeping, there was almost no rest. The 2,300-mile journey was completed in just eight days.
However, these eight days were really hard on Xiao Han and others!
Fortunately for Liu Hongji, he was a military commander and had a strong physique. Even after running for eight days, apart from his appearance, he was still in high spirits.
I just pity Xiao Han, who has ridden a horse for such a long time? When he arrived in Bianzhou, his thighs had been bruised and bloody, so he could only use soft pads to hold on and continue on his way.
When the group finally arrived in Chang'an and rushed into Zhuque Street on horseback, Xiao Han and the others were almost crying.
Finally, the damn one has arrived!
However, even so, they still didn't even bother to return home and rushed towards the palace first!
On Chang'an Street, when the people saw their miserable faces and their clothes torn by branches along the way, they thought they were refugees fleeing from somewhere. They couldn't help but point at the backs of a few people and make guesses.
Where did they come from?
And at the Zhuque Gate of the Imperial Palace.
The palace guard Chen Wuan was patrolling in front of the door with his sword pressed at the moment. His eyes like a falcon were constantly scanning the surroundings, as if any disturbance could not hide from his sharp eyes!
In recent days, the atmosphere in the palace has been inexplicably serious!
First, some messengers who didn’t know where they came from frequently came in and out of the palace!
Immediately afterwards, His Majesty the Emperor began to go out of his way and summon all the generals to the palace to discuss matters. The discussions often lasted for half a day. Li Jing, who had not shown up for a long time, was also summoned several times.
Chen Wu'an did not know what the top military commanders in these courts were doing in the palace.
But when he saw these generals leaving, they all had serious expressions on their faces. One look at them and he knew that something big had happened inside!
However, this news is now very tightly sealed, not to mention the common people in the market, even Chen Wu'an and other close officials of the emperor don't know about it! It is estimated that only a small group of people can know the details of the matter.
