Dugu Jiali and the other two were so excited that they flew into the air. Zhang Qian pretended to be excited, hugging Su Yourong and cheering.
But Long Chen was having trouble beside him, thinking about how he could appear normal.
"I...go find the princess."
Long Chen thought about it and thought that he should go to the West Palace at this time, so that it would appear normal.
After leaving the study, Xiang Ning ran over quickly and ran into Long Chen's arms.
"King, princess, she, she, she..."
Xiang Ning was so excited that she couldn't speak and could only gesture wildly with her hands.
Long Chen smiled and said: "I know, the princess's dead wood pill has been refined, I will go find her."
Long Chen was about to leave, but Xiang Ning grabbed Long Chen's sleeve and said excitedly: "Your Majesty, you promised me! Don't cheat!"
Long Chen didn't even remember what he promised Xiang Ning.
However, in short, it is those two things, let Xiang Ning eat one bite, or eat many mouthfuls, and then give her a title or something.
"Don't worry, your benefits are inevitable."
Long Chen pinched Xiang Ning's face.
Xiang Ning happily hugged Long Chen, kissed him, and said: "Your Majesty, go and come back quickly, I'll be waiting for you tonight!"
Uh...this...
Long Chen smiled awkwardly and hurriedly left the backyard and reached the front yard.
He Juntao has already prepared his horse.
"Sir, the horse is ready."
He Juntao said excitedly.
Long Chen smiled, mounted his horse and went out to the West Palace.
Walking on the street, Long Chen listened attentively. Almost everyone was talking about Di Luoxi refining the Deadwood Pill.
Long Chen felt a little shocked. He didn't expect that everyone would pay such high attention to this matter. It was really unexpected.
"Isn't that King Wu?"
"Is he going to enter the palace?"
"I'm sure, the princess has refined the regeneration pill, he must go."
"Now I can be the prince-consort."
"I'm so envious, there are so many beauties in the harem."
In the past, no one paid attention to Long Chen when he walked on the road, but this time he actually became the center of attention.
Long Chen quickly speeded up and arrived at the West Palace.
Long Chen quickly entered the West Palace, and when he arrived at the entrance of the palace, he happened to see Qingyue.
"Qingyue."
Hearing the sound, Qingyue stopped and saw Long Chen coming in, with a proud smile on her face and said: "Xiao Longlong, I knew you were coming!"
"I, Qingyue, have a share of the credit for the Deadwood Pill. You must pay me back with interest!"
Long Chen put his arms around Qingyue's slim waist and said with a smile: "I'm giving you my money and interest, just because I'm afraid you won't be able to bear it and beg for mercy."
Qingyue teased and said, "Humph, I'm not afraid. It's not like I haven't seen what happened between you and the princess."
This girl Qingyue didn't know how powerful she was. Long Chen and the princess usually only used words and actions, but didn't really use swords or guns.
Although Qingyue had practiced and was in good health, Long Chen was confident that she would beg for mercy.
"Okay, I'll pay you back in full when the time comes."
"Where's the princess? You won't give it to me even after you refine the Deadwood Pill?"
Long Chen hugged Qingyue and walked inside.
"The princess is resting. She is exhausted from making alchemy."
Qingyue led Long Chen into the room, where Di Luoxi was fast asleep on the bed, looking very tired.
Long Chen sat on the edge of the bed, stroking Di Luoxi's tired cheek, feeling mixed emotions in his heart.
Such a good princess, who devotes all her efforts to herself, may soon...
"Silly girl."
Long Chen sighed slightly.
Qingyue whispered: "Xiao Longlong, you must be good to the princess, she is really attentive to you."
Long Chen nodded slightly and said, "Let her have a good rest. I'll come back tomorrow."
Qingyue was a little surprised and asked, "Aren't you in a hurry?"
Long Chen smiled and said: "I have been a eunuch for so long, so don't worry about these two days and just stay with the princess."
Long Chen lowered his head and kissed Di Luoxi on the cheek, then stood up and left the West Palace.
Walking outside, Long Chen felt that his heart was filled with panic. The people on the street were still pointing and watching the excitement.
Long Chen sped up his speed, rode his horse out of the capital, and rushed to the Zhenfo Temple.
The Zhenfo Temple is very beautiful in autumn. The maple trees all over the mountain are like burning fire, and the road up the mountain is red.
The fallen leaves on the ground are like gold foil, inlaid on the stone road.
The horse's hooves stepped on the dead leaves, making a rustling sound.
The influence of Zhenfo Temple is growing and there are many pilgrims.
Long Chen rode his horse to the mountain gate and saw Xuan Hui playing with several young monks.
Seeing Long Chen coming, Xuan Hui turned around and ran away.
"Hey, why are you running!"
Long Chen shouted, and Xuan Hui ran faster.
"Brat."
Long Chen dismounted, and Hongrui, the supervisor, heard that Long Chen was coming and immediately came over to greet him.
"King Wu arrived, but the poor monk was at a loss to welcome him from afar."
Hongrui became richer and had a refined and sour Confucian temperament.
It seems that this guy often hangs out with the literati in the capital.
"We are all old acquaintances, don't be so polite."
"Is Mojie here?"
Hongrui smiled and said: "The abbot is here, King Wu is here to invite you."
Hongrui smiled and led the way, and Long Chen entered the abbot's room, where Mojie was writing scriptures.
"Abbott, King Wu is here."
Hongrui said softly.
Mojie raised his head and saw Long Chen walking in. He put down his brush and said with a smile, "Okay, I won't look for you, but you will deliver it to your door."
"How long have you owed me the scriptures? I haven't read a word of them. What do you think I should do?"
Mojie had not seen Long Chen for a long time and was very happy.
Long Chen sat down and said with a smile: "I'm here to talk to you, and you're here to collect debts from me. You don't look like a monk."
Seeing that Long Chen and Mojie were chatting, Hongrui left the abbot's room.
When I walked outside, I saw Xuan Hui looking in furtively.
"Xuan Hui, what are you doing?"
Hong Rui walked over and Xuan Hui chuckled and said, "It's nothing. I haven't seen King Wu for a long time. I'm here to take a look."
Hong Rui said: "You are familiar with King Wu, why don't you go in?"
Xuanhui said quickly: "King Wu is discussing serious matters with the abbot, I won't go."
Hongrui didn't think much and went back to handle the monk affairs in the temple.
In the abbot's room.
Mojie made a pot of tea and chatted slowly with Long Chen.
"How did King Wu find time to see the poor monk today?"
Long Chen took a sip of tea and said, "I was afraid that you, a bald donkey, would suffocate to death on the mountain, so I came here specifically to have a look."
Mojie smiled and said, "I'm afraid you're going to be squeezed dry at home, why don't you come here to get some fresh air?"
Long Chen laughed and scolded: "What a lewd monk and a bald ass who only talks dirty words."
Mojie said: "I heard rumors from the mountains that you want to destroy Xixia and level Nanliang."
Long Chen put down the teacup and said, "I didn't expect that the Pure Land of Buddhism would also hear it."
Mojie smiled and said: "There is no pure place in the world. There are only pure people. When people are pure, the place will also be pure."
Long Chen nodded and said: "Talk about right and wrong, it means right and wrong. Only when you don't have right and wrong in your heart can you know right and wrong."
Mojie asked: "Do you really think so?"
Long Chen nodded and said: "Yes, I really think so."
Mojie sighed quietly and said: "I have become a monk, so I shouldn't be involved in secular affairs, but I am a Xixia after all, so I can't bear it."
Long Chen knew what Mojie meant and said: "Don't worry, I won't kill indiscriminately, and those who surrender will avoid death, and I won't target the Xixia monks."
Mojie nodded and said, "I know this."
Mojie knew Long Chen's character and he was not worried about Long Chen killing innocent people indiscriminately.
It's just that if there is a war, everyone will be destroyed. There are many things that Long Chen can't control.
"You came here just for tea?"
Mojie stopped talking about the war.
Long Chen sighed and said, "I feel depressed."
Mojie asked with a smile: "You are in a high position, but you still feel depressed?"
