Chapter 33 I'm here to practice Taoism
Zhao Hanyu was silent for a while and said, "Where is there any evidence for King Duan to fight for the throne?"
Murong Qianfan sneered, "Where can I find evidence for this kind of thing? This person is ambitious and everyone in the world knows it, and there is no need for evidence. The death of the late emperor cannot be separated from this person! However, the late emperor has some precautions and has long condensed his soul and left a throne edict. The national master is standing on the side of His Majesty now, and he has failed again."
"However, since the day of his ascension, His Majesty has been hindered by all parties. Most of the three provinces and six ministries in the court, the five ministers of the nine temples and five ministers were bought by King Duan or placed in close contact, resulting in the government orders being blocked. One-third of the arch-protectionists at each border are loyal to King Duan, and their military power is worrying. Thanks to the strong support and mediation of the national teacher and the power of the national religion has not led to the worst situation." Lao Ke added.
Murong Qianfan nodded and said, "Once your status is established, the National Master will no longer pay attention to the entanglement of the sects in the future of the national religion and will do their best to assist His Majesty in the Qingming Dynasty. However, the burden on you will be very heavy."
Zhao Hanyu frowned and said, "Then how should I assist my uncle?"
"Hmph! You haven't even entered the door of cultivation yet, how can you help?" Murong Qianfan said to him as if he was looking at an idiot.
"Yes, I really can't do anything else except reading some more books."
"By the way! Think more about the stories of usurping the throne and seizing the palace in the novel, maybe it will be inspiring?"
"Is this okay?" Zhao Hanyu's face looked a little ugly.
Lao Ke smiled and said, "This is also a reference. The previous dynasty's throne-fighting is a bit similar to that of this dynasty. After Brother Zhao entered Beijing, he asked his uncle to order his master to compare."
Zhao Hanyu thought for a while and said, "Actually, my purpose is to go to Beijing to practice Taoism. The master told me that the master would arrange everything, so I didn't ask anything. According to you, the master is in a difficult situation and I can't help, so I can only try not to cause trouble for him."
Murong Qianfan said: "Your idea is only half right. It's not that you won't come if you don't add up. Now at least, the King Duan and the eldest son of the emperor will come to you. Although the eldest son of the emperor is weak, he has been making friends with young talents in recent years. He treats them with courtesy in all things. You should be his key target to win over and train."
"Is the eldest son of the emperor hopeless to succeed to the throne? Otherwise, why would he have made so many friends?" Zhao Hanyu asked curiously.
Lao Ke nodded and said, "Whether the eldest son can succeed the throne is indeed between two opinions. Your Majesty has two sons, the second son Li Qing is about 16 years old. The famous young genius among the royal family is much more famous than his brother."
"This is only one aspect, and there is also the eye of King Duan. The emperor has not clearly defined the crown prince. The life of the eldest son is quite sad." Murong Qianfan said.
"Your Majesty failed to fight the territory a hundred years ago and suffered a severe backlash. The dragon body was incompatible. Since more than ten years ago, he has never come forward to preside over the government affairs. He relies on the national teacher to take care of it. If it is difficult to meet the holy person today, and the matter of establishing a crown prince has not been established, the emperor's eldest son's anxiety can be understood." Lao Ke said.
Zhao Hanyu silently understood what the two said, but felt that the road ahead was in chaos.
Murong Qianfan said again: "In short, the more prominent your current status, the more people you come to find you, the more methods you have, and naturally the more trouble you have. Don't try to escape, you can't escape. Unless you have the day when you not only have status, but also have the strength and right to speak, these people will respect you and rely solely on your breath and not dare to act rashly. So I said to Xiao Zhao, be strong as soon as possible."
Lao Ke echoed: "Young Master is right. Only when you are strong can you truly become the arm of the National Master and share the pressure for him. Otherwise, all forces will be aggressive, the court will be worried, and the national religion will be worried."
Zhao Hanyu asked, "Then what is the first thing I have to do after entering Beijing?"
"Brother Zhao, did Master Ling really tell you nothing? He just said that Master Ling would make arrangements?" Lao Ke was a little surprised.
"I really didn't say anything, just asked me to pay attention to the 'Tianxiahui' and 'Huangdi Mausoleum', and follow the instructions of my master." Zhao Hanyu replied.
After hearing this, Lao Ke suddenly realized, "Well, I understand with the prompts of these two things. I believe that the master and the National Master have a complete solution, so we have been thinking too much."
Murong Qianfan asked, "Uncle Ke, which academy do you think the National Teacher will arrange for him to enter? Qingxu Villa or Tianyu Academy?"
"What college?" Zhao Hanyu was a little confused.
"Yeah! You rusty bun, you must explain everything to you. It's so tiring!" Murong Qianfan complained.
"I really don't know, no one told me."
"I tell you. There are four major colleges in the capital, one of which is specially created for female practitioners, and it is not suitable for you. The other three are the Qingxu Villa. The Qingxu Villa has the longest history. Think about it, the Taoist holy land is called Qingxu Palace, and it is called Qingxu Villa. I won't explain it, right? The second Tianyu Academy, which is a great thing to obey Tianyu, right? My mother let me enter this academy."
"What's the third one?"
Lao Ke interrupted, "Brother Zhao, I guess that Master will definitely let you go to one of the Second Hospitals that the young master said, and it shouldn't be wrong."
"Yes, why don't you tell your uncle directly that you want to come to Tianyu Academy and we can be together again." Murong Qianfan's eyes lit up and said.
Old Ke nodded frequently when he heard this.
Zhao Hanyu thought for a while and said, "It depends on what my master means. I am here to practice Taoism, because I have too many troubles to solve. Mr. Ke, I must say sorry to you here, because there are some unknown reasons, I have concealed some things. However, I will become stronger as soon as possible, just as you expect. By then, I will share my secret with you as soon as possible." After saying that, he bowed solemnly.
"What kind of rituals are you doing? How boring are you?" Murong Qianfan said.
Lao Ke smiled without saying anything.
Zhao Hanyu said seriously: "Because you are my closest people, I will never want to hide anything from you. Even if there is, it is a last resort. In the first place, everyone can understand it afterwards."
Lao Ke nodded and said, "Brother Zhao is young and has a very thorough work. I understand. Master, your friend is quite good."
Murong Qianfan hugged his arms and snorted without comment.
Lao Ke looked up at the sky and smiled and said, "It's almost time to come, let's take a break. I will cross this snowy mountain tomorrow to see if I can catch the snow leopard. Today's food is a bit unsatisfactory."
The two nodded suddenly to agree after hearing this.
The small tent in the shelter has been set up long ago, each person is holding it.
The three of them let the fire continue to burn and burrowed into their beds to rest.
The chat tonight was quite short, with rich content and a lot of brain-burning. After a while, the three of them fell asleep.
The next morning, Zhao Hanyu woke up on time at the beginning of the Mao hour.
At this time the sky was still dark, and stars were twinkling, just like the late night.
He hesitated for a moment and decided to sit in the tent and meditate without disturbing the two of them.
Just as I was about to enter the state of meditation, there was movement in the other two tents.
As a result, the three of them had the same idea and they all conducted morning classes in their own account.
After about an hour, the three of them completed meditation and meditated one after another and came outside the tent together.
At this time, the morning light was first dew, and the golden morning glory shone on the snow-capped mountains, contrasting with the gorgeous morning glow in the sky, the scenery was very magnificent.
The two young men looked at each other and smiled, feeling that their minds were broad.
After tidying up the tent, the three of them began to search for a road and climb the mountain.
The Great Snow Mountain is majestic and steep, which is difficult for ordinary people to climb, and there is no way to follow from above the mountainside.
Lao Ke has a profound cultivation level and is the first to open the way forward. He tries to step on the ice and snow with both feet to facilitate the two small followers.
The two walked carefully along the path compiled by Lao Ke, walking very slowly and steadily, and the journey was peaceful and safe.
After two hours, the three of them finally reached the top.
At this time, thousands of golden lights reflected the snow peaks of varying heights everywhere, like gold, and were spectacular.
Murong Qianfan looked at the wonder scene in front of him and couldn't help but scream loudly; Lao Ke was also refreshed and his heart was filled with heroic spirit;
Zhao Hanyu looked at the mountains far and near quietly, smiling and silent.
The clouds come and go in the sky, and they pass by the sun from time to time, and the light that penetrates the clouds is as sharp as a sword.
Occasionally there are large thick clouds that cover the sunlight for a while, and the peaks turn dark red, and golden light is shining everywhere, which is really beautiful.
The three of them lingered on the top of the mountain for a long time. Finally, they saw a large dark cloud gradually approaching from afar. The wind and snow were approaching, and they just left the wonders in front of them to find a way to go down the mountain.
I walked down the mountain in a hurry, and I forgot the deliciousness of the snow leopards. It was not until the five internal organs began to protest that Murong Qianfan was upset that he missed the delicious food.
The three of them walked eastward and entered the vast grassland ahead.
The grassland is vast and has a great view. Unfortunately, there is no large animal at first sight. The three of them are a little worried about the dinner that day.
Until the evening, I finally caught a few hares, but the rest did not get any harvest.
The three of them found a water source, peeled and washed the hare all, and still solved the problem by roasting.
Lao Ke comforted the two of them. When they entered the depths of the grassland, there would be many species of animals, which slightly reduced Murong Qianfan's concerns about food in the next few days.
After dinner, the three of them chatted for a while and felt sleepy, so they went to rest separately.
In the following days, the three of them kept moving in the grassland.
Lao Ke's prediction was indeed accurate. For several days, sheep, deer, wolf, foxes were everywhere, and some bold and careless birds were also seen. The three of them had a happy time and later they even chose the best.
After five or six days of delicious meal, the grassland is almost at the end, and the Minjiang River is ahead.
After crossing the Minjiang River, crossing the Qinling Mountains, crossing the Wei River and Han River, the capital Chang'an is no longer far away.
The three of them crossed the Minjiang River and headed straight for the Qinling Mountains.
As we get closer and closer to the capital, Murong Qianfan's mood is even higher.
Old Ke quietly observed Zhao Hanyu and found that he did not show any surprise or lack of knowledge along the way. For those scenery that were so clumsy that he could describe, he calmly watched, his face and mood had no obvious fluctuations, and showed a calmness that was inconsistent with his age.
