Shi Le used the Mad Lion Technique under the city. Bai Tingting and Wu Xiangyun were both shocked. They were worried that Long Chen would be injured.
"It should be fine. Isn't Sissi in the room?"
Dugu Jiali has a high level of cultivation, and the Mad Lion Technique only made her feel a little uncomfortable at the time, but she is fine now.
"Sissi...isn't she having sex with her husband?"
Wu Chuchu said suddenly.
Bai Tingting rubbed her ears and felt a little buzzing.
"It's possible, it's completely possible, that we can catch him in bed?"
Bai Tingting stood up, feeling a little unsteady.
Wu Xiangyun said: "Forget it, don't make trouble."
Bai Tingting lay down again and said, "What's going on? My ears feel uncomfortable. Why can't I stand still?"
Wu Xiangyun said: "I'm a little bit too, let's take a rest."
The two hugged each other to sleep and rest.
...
Shi Le wrote a secret letter to Kong Ji, and Ma Fang immediately arranged for a messenger to be sent back to Zhaoti Temple.
The messenger rushed into Xingqing City and delivered it to Zhaoti Temple.
After entering the temple, the messenger found Pu Xuan.
"Your Majesty has a secret message for the Imperial Advisor."
The messenger said anxiously.
Puxuan immediately took the messenger into the abbot's room. Kongji was lying on the bed, and two disciples were accompanying him in the room.
"Master, there is a secret message from the king."
The messenger took out a bamboo tube from his arms and presented it to Kong Ji.
Monk Kongji took it and said, "Thank you."
The messenger exited the room and immediately returned to resume his duties.
Kong Ji opened the bamboo tube, took out the secret message inside and unfolded it. After taking a closer look, Monk Kong Ji looked even more ugly.
Pu Xuan waved his hand, and the two accompanying disciples put their hands together in salute and immediately left the room.
"Junior brother, what's wrong?"
Pu Xuan helped Kong Ji move up.
Monk Kongji said: "The king asked me to ask for help from the Uz Kingdom."
Pu Xuan was slightly shocked and said: "Asking for help from the Us Kingdom? Isn't there anyone in Great Xia who can rival Long Chengen?"
Monk Kongji closed his eyes and sighed: "Should I regret it at the beginning? If I had known that Long Chengen would become like this, I would have killed him no matter what!"
Back then, when Long Chen led his troops to put down Jing Tianlie's rebellion, Kong Ji once intervened to stop him.
At that time, Long Chen was driven by drugs and became like crazy. Although Monk Kongji struggled to fight, if he fought with all his strength, killing Long Chen would not be a problem.
Unfortunately, Shi Le did not want to start a war with the Eastern Zhou Dynasty at that time, and the Tianxiahui agreed to Long Chen's reconciliation and would not allow Xixia to intervene.
Until now, the world has been destroyed by Long Chen, and Xixia has been forced into such a situation by Long Chen again.
Kong Ji felt extremely regretful and should have made up her mind to kill Long Chen long ago.
"Junior brother, what are your plans?"
Kong Ji sighed slightly and said: "The king has a destiny, and... we really have no one who can match him."
Pu Xuan looked solemn and said: "However, the country of Us is a long way away. It would take a lot of time to go back and forth, and the desert to the west is not easy to travel."
There is a desert between Xixia and Us. Only profit-seeking caravans are willing to cross the desert. Most people will never run westward.
Kong Ji looked at Pu Xuan and said, "It is spring now. The good thing is that the weather is not hot, but the bad thing is that the wind and sand are strong."
"Xixia is in danger now. Long Chengen may collude with the barbarians to fully attack the hinterland of Xixia at any time. We are in danger of subjugation."
Pu Xuan knew the meaning of Kongji. When sending an envoy to the Us country, he must be a highly respected person. It would definitely not work to send ordinary people.
The only senior ones in Zhaoti Temple are Pu Xuan and Hong Zhi.
But Pu Xuan really didn’t want to cross the desert.
"Senior brother, if Daxia dies, our authentic way of converting to Buddhism will be gone."
"Long Cheng'en built another temple in Zhenguo Temple and made the traitor Fu Hui the abbot to spread the evil magic of Mojie."
"If Long Cheng'en breaks through Xingqing City, Zhaoti Temple will definitely be purged. How can you and I face the Master then?"
Kong Ji spoke sincerely, while Pu Xuan was speechless.
Kong Ji continued: "I will let the people from Honglu Temple go on the road with my senior brother. There are also disciples in the temple who will go with my senior brother. Although the road is difficult, there will definitely be no problem with safety."
"The thing is done. This is a great achievement. When Long Chengen is defeated and Zhenguo Temple is recaptured, senior brother can become the abbot of Zhenguo Temple."
Puxuan's seniority was higher, but because of his poor cultivation, Deshan was appointed as the abbot of Zhenguo Temple.
Now that Deshan is dead, Kongji asks Puxuan to come.
With this benefit, Pu Xuan was a little tempted and said: "How about over there at Honglu Temple, Junior Brother?"
Kongji said: "As a national teacher, and I have the king's secret message, Honglu Temple will listen to me."
The status of national master is not just for decoration, Shi Le gave Kong Ji the real power.
In addition, there is a secret message here, so the people in Honglu Temple must obey the order.
Pu Xuan nodded and said, "I'm going to make preparations and choose some trustworthy disciples."
Kongji nodded slightly and said, "Call Shanzhen over."
Pu Xuan got up and left the abbot's room. There were two disciples standing outside the door. One of them had fine features and a round head. He was Shan Zhen as mentioned by Kong Ji.
"Shan Zhen, the abbot is looking for you."
Shanzhen immediately entered the abbot's room, and Kongji ordered: "Find the minister of Honglu Temple."
Shanzhen immediately left Zhaoti Temple and found Tang Guolong, the minister of Honglu Temple, in the palace of Honglu Temple.
Hearing that something was going on in Kongji, Tang Guolong immediately went to Zhaoti Temple.
Entering the abbot's room, Tang Guolong saw the empty appearance and asked with concern: "Is the Imperial Master feeling better?"
When Kong Ji first came back, Tang Guolong came to see him.
Kong Ji smiled and said, "Master Tang, please sit down."
Tang Guolong sat down and said empty-handedly: "Thanks to Mr. Tang's concern, my body is feeling better."
"The reason why I came to Mr. Tang today is because the king has a secret decree."
Kong Ji handed the secret letter to Tang Guolong. Tang Guolong stood up and took it with both hands. He read the content of the secret letter carefully and immediately understood what Kong Ji meant.
"The Imperial Master wants me to go to Us as an envoy?"
Kong Ji nodded and said: "Yes, the poor monk knows that this road is difficult to walk. If the poor monk's body is not like this, the poor monk should go on his own."
"Puxuan, the poor monk's senior brother, will take the disciples from the temple and go with Mr. Tang. I also ask Mr. Tang to spare no effort."
Tang Guolong was an upright and responsible man, and immediately said: "When the country is about to survive, how dare you say the word hard work? I will go back immediately to prepare."
"It's just documents and gifts that go to the Uzbek state, and the state master has to make the final decision."
When you go to ask for help, you can never go empty-handed. You must bring treasures with you.
Kong Ji said: "The poor monk will arrange this, Lord Tang, don't worry."
Tang Guolong returned the secret letter to Kong Ji, stood up and bowed, "I'll prepare it right away."
Kong Ji nodded and said, "Shan Zhen, I'll send this to Mr. Tang."
Shanzhen sent Tang Guolong out of Zhaoti Temple.
Returning to the abbot's room, Kongji said, "Help me up."
Shanzhen said worriedly: "The abbot is still not well yet, is he going to get up?"
Kongji said: "This is what the poor monk must do if he wants to enter the palace to see the queen."
Tang Guolong is the minister of Honglu Temple, so he can be invited to Zhaoti Temple for interviews. It is impossible for the queen to invite him, so Kongji can only go there in person.
Shanzhen had no choice but to help Kongji get up, put on a red cassock, arranged a sedan, and several people carried him into the palace.
When they arrived at the palace, Monk Kongji reported that he wanted to see the queen and was waiting in the side hall.
After a while, a graceful-looking woman about 40 years old walked in.
Wearing a golden phoenix robe and a green feather phoenix crown, this person is Lu Meier, Queen of Xixia.
"The poor monk Kongji pays his respects to the queen."
Kongji put his hands together and saluted.
The queen sat down in her seat, looked at the empty scene, and said comfortingly: "Master, please sit down, your health is important."
Kongji thanked him and sat down next to him.
"What's wrong with the Imperial Master?"
Queen Lu knew that she had something important to ask for at this time.
Kongji stood up, took out the secret letter, and said: "The king sent a secret order to ask the poor monk to go to the country of Us to ask for help. There are some things that require the queen's permission."
The maid next to the queen immediately received the secret message and presented it to the queen.
Queen Lu saw it and immediately knew what Kong Ji meant, and said, "Does the Imperial Master want a national certificate and a treasure?"
Kong Ji bowed and said, "Exactly."
Queen Lu said: "Okay, I will prepare now."
Queen Lu was a virtuous queen who acted vigorously and resolutely. She immediately wrote the letter of credence with her own hand and sealed it with a jade seal.
The harem also took out several boxes of treasures and placed them in the middle of the side hall.
"The Imperial Master, national documents and treasures are all here."
Monk Kongji bowed and said, "Thank you, Queen."
Queen Lu said: "The imperial master is so polite, all for the sake of Daxia."
"Please take the trouble of the national master and be sure to invite the masters from the Us country to come back and kill Long Chengen to take revenge."
Shi Haoran was the son of Queen Lu. He was so seriously injured that Queen Lu was heartbroken.
Shi Jingxiang is also Queen Lu's daughter. She doesn't know that Shi Jingxiang has been arrested.
Kong Ji bowed and said, "The poor monk respectfully accepts Yi's decree. The poor monk retires."
The queen ordered people to carry the box back to Zhaoti Temple, and Monk Kongji followed him back to Zhaoti Temple.
Queen Lu returned to the harem and asked Jin Sha, the maid next to her: "Xiang'er went to Yangcheng a few days ago. She wasn't messing around, was she?"
The maid Jin Sha carefully replied: "I haven't heard of it. The king is there. The second princess should be fine."
Queen Lu shook her head slightly and said: "I didn't take enough care of me when I was a child, so I'm afraid she will act up again."
When it comes to Shi Jingxiang, the maids around her seem a bit taboo.
