Seeing that the empress was a little disgusted, Master Ziyun said, "Actually... we don't look at the best. We didn't know that when we ate it."
I didn’t know that venison was so disgusting at first. By the time I found out, I had already eaten it and it wasn’t disgusting at all.
The empress smiled bitterly and said: "There is no other way, just eat."
Long Chen did not cut the meat off on the spot, but asked Master Ziyun to go out first and stayed to cut the meat himself.
After cutting it, Long Chen packed up the venison and cut some poultry meat.
After walking out of the cave, Long Chen glanced at the lake not far away.
Carrying the food box, Long Chen returned to the front mountain.
The Empress, Ziyun and Miaoyin sat together and chatted about the Holy Snow Peak.
Long Chen put down the food box and took out the venison and poultry.
The empress looked at the meat, and the scene of the vegetable garden came to mind again, and her stomach churned.
Long Chen smiled helplessly, took out some condiments and placed them beside him, and said, "It will be better if you eat it with dipping."
Long Chen picked up a piece of meat with chopsticks, dipped it in the condiments, and ate it slowly.
Ziyun and Miaoyin also started eating.
The empress hesitated for a while, then picked up the chopsticks, took a piece, and dipped it in the seasoning...
Slowly put it into your mouth and eat with your eyes closed.
The empress resisted vomiting and finally took her first bite.
But after finishing the first bite, she didn't take another bite.
The empress needs time to slowly accept this thing.
After Long Chen and the others finished eating the venison and poultry, they cleared the table.
"Your Majesty, take your time, this thing will gradually get used to it."
Master Ziyun smiled.
The empress nodded slightly and said, "Go and see the room and move the things there."
Master Ziyun smiled and said, "Okay, all your things are still there."
The empress got up and walked to the room, with Long Chen following behind.
Arriving in front of the courtyard, the empress suddenly said: "You can go back, I have Ziyun with me."
Master Ziyun smiled slightly, and Long Chen knew clearly in his heart that there was a dark history of the Empress in that room.
"Don't worry, I also want to see what the room that the Holy Father lived in before was like."
Long Chen really wanted to know the dark history of the empress.
The empress quit, and said angrily: "If there's anything good to see, go back!"
Master Ziyun said with a smile: "Go back, Your Majesty is angry."
Long Chen thought to himself, could there be a lot of the empress's flashy clothes in the room?
For example, fancy bellybands and pants?
"Then...Wei Chen resigns."
Long Chen couldn't force his way in, so he could only watch the empress go in while Yingfeng closed the courtyard gate.
After leaving Zixiao Palace, Long Chen rode back to Prince Wu's Mansion to rest.
After being busy for so long, Long Chen also wanted to have a good rest.
...
Nanliang, Jinling, on the riverside boat.
There were dark clouds in the sky, a gentle breeze blew on the river, and fine light rain fell on the river.
Li Chengdao was wearing a raincoat and sitting on the bow of the boat, with a fishing rod hanging into the river.
The buoy on the river moved. Li Chengdao quickly lifted the fishing rod, but the hook was empty.
Decoupled again.
Li Chengdao's expression remained normal, he slowly took out the bait, hung it on the hook, and threw it into the river as before.
A small boat slowly came over, and Yu Fuguo climbed out of the boat and got behind Li Chengdao.
"emperor.."
Li Chengdao looked at the river and ignored Yu Fuguo.
Yu Fuguo knew that Li Chengdao was already listening, so he said: "There is a rumor in the world that Long Chen met the ghost tribe at Shengxue Peak. Yinling, the sect leader of Shengxue Peak, is the biological daughter of Wusheng, and has been killed by Long Chen.
Chen beheaded him."
Li Chengdao held the fishing rod in his hand, turned around slowly, with angry eyes, and said coldly: "Do you believe such nonsense? Wu Sheng's daughter, how old is she? 400 years old?"
Yu Fuguo immediately knelt down and kowtowed, saying, "I am just reporting truthfully. Monk Xuan Zhao of Baoguo Temple has been to Prince Wu's Mansion and he has just come back."
Li Chengdao felt that what Yu Fuguo said sounded like an idiot, but he also knew that often what sounded like an idiot was the truth!
"Draw to the shore and drive to Baoguo Temple."
Li Chengdao threw the fishing rod into the river, and Zhong Gui immediately ordered him to dock.
The big ship slowly docked at the dock, and Li Chengdao immediately rode to Baoguo Temple.
Baoguo Temple is located on a hill south of Jinling City. The temple is so large that it takes up the hill and the surrounding fields.
When the imperial driver arrived at the mountain gate, the abbot, Tongzhi, immediately came out to greet him.
This monk Tongzhi once went to Zhenfo Temple to listen to Mojie's sermons, and now he is the abbot of Baoguo Temple.
"The poor monk pays homage to the emperor."
Tongzhi brought the monks from Baoguo Temple to visit him.
Li Chengdao didn't like Baoguo Temple very much, because this wise monk talked about the profoundness of Mojie Buddhism all day long, and also said that Long Chen had the wisdom of Buddha nature. Bayi Chinese website
"Where is Xuan Zhao?"
Li Chengdao asked directly.
Monk Tongzhi guessed what Li Chengdao wanted to ask Long Chen and immediately asked Xuan Zhao to come out to see him.
"The poor monk Xuan Zhao, pays homage to the Emperor."
Xuan Zhao respectfully put his hands together and saluted.
Li Chengdao walked inside, and the monks made way for him. Zhong Gui, Yu Fuguo and Xuan Zhao entered a room.
The Imperial Guards were stationed outside and no one was allowed to approach.
The monks in the temple looked at each other, not knowing what had happened.
"Abbott, what's going on?"
The host asked Monk Tongzhi, who shook his head and said, "I don't know either, just wait."
He knew it in his heart, but he couldn't tell it, lest he get into trouble.
in the room.
Li Chengdao sat down, Zhong Gui stood beside him, and Yu Fuguo and Xuanzhao stood in front.
"When the emperor asks you, you must answer truthfully, otherwise it will be the crime of deceiving the emperor, do you understand?"
Yu Fuguo first struck Xuan Zhao.
Xuan Zhao immediately said: "Monks do not lie."
Yu Fuguo nodded with satisfaction and looked at Li Chengdao.
Li Chengdao asked: "You went to the capital of Eastern Zhou Dynasty and met Long Chen?"
Xuan Zhao replied: "Yes, the poor monk met King Wu in the capital 12 days ago and asked about Jiang Wu, a lay disciple in the temple. Jiang Wu went to Shengxue Peak last year and there has been no news since."
Li Chengdao nodded slightly and asked, "What did that guy say?"
Xuan Zhao truthfully reported what happened at that time.
After Li Chengdao listened, his face was full of suspicion.
Zhong Gui and Yu Fuguo also felt strange.
"Ghost clan? Martial Saint's daughter? Do you believe such a ridiculous and unruly thing?"
Li Chengdao felt that what Xuan Zhao said was ridiculous and pure nonsense.
Xuan Zhao said, "Back to the Emperor, the King Wu whom the poor monk saw in Prince Wu's Mansion felt... indeed different."
Li Chengdao asked: "How is it different?"
Xuan Zhao said: "The poor monk has a unique skill. He can hear people's heartbeats. But when the poor monk stayed in Prince Wu's mansion for more than two hours, King Wu's heartbeats only sounded a dozen times. He is no longer an ordinary person."
hiss...
Li Chengdao looked at Xuan Zhao in shock, wondering if Xuan Zhao had benefited from Long Chen, and even said that this Xuan Zhao was Long Chen's person.
"Not an ordinary person? What is that?"
Li Chengdao asked coldly.
Xuan Zhao shook his head and said: "I don't dare to make random guesses, but King Wu's heartbeat is too strange."
Li Chengdao frowned slightly, stood up and left the room, leaving Baoguo Temple directly.
Monk Tongzhi sent him all the way back to the mountain.
"What did the emperor ask you just now?"
The host immediately asked Xuan Zhao, who answered truthfully.
The host worriedly said: "Will the emperor treat us because we have met King Wu..."
Tongzhi shook his head and said: "Probably not, but according to what Xuan Zhao said, all sentient beings in the world may be in disaster."
