In the square outside the main hall, rows of futons were spread out, and the darkness could not hold down more than two hundred people. Because no one had come out yet, there was a burst of whispering.
"Coming, coming!" Suddenly, a voice was heard. Everyone looked up and saw a female cultivator in apricot-yellow Taoist robes, accompanied by a young man in apricot-yellow Taoist robes, walking from the left side of the palace. Come sideways.
This person has not come close yet, but what makes everyone raise their eyebrows is that these disciples of the Xiaoyao Sect who were originally standing around stood silently facing the two of them. Even Feng Yuchan, who was accompanying his companion, couldn't help but stand up instantly and quickly came towards the two people.
Although the female cultivator and the young man in Taoist robes did not greet anyone, everyone who saw him would look at the Xiaoyao sect with a little surprise, and then take the initiative to salute them. The two of them didn't seem to care much about these customs, and they would just nod slightly to indicate that they were returning the favor.
But when they saw Feng Yuchan walking over quickly, and under the leadership of the female cultivator, they stopped in front of the temple door. Looking at this female cultivator's indifferent eyes, it makes people feel distant, as if she is the person in the painting.
In the eyes of ordinary people, Mr. Geng, the immortal of Xiaoyao Sect, is not just a person who takes advantage of the situation to become domineering, but also a strange man with the magic of immortality. From the princes, generals and ministers to the traders and footmen, everyone respected her.
In the Tang State, the largest power in the south, a female crown who practices and pursues the way of heaven will not have any impact on the government. Therefore, everyone thinks it is normal for the leader of the country, Li Jing, to admire Mr. Geng. This also made the Xiaoyao Sect quickly become the most famous practice sect in the Tang Dynasty.
"Everyone is blessed today. Do you know who this fairy is?" Many of us looked at this female cultivator, because not only was she conspicuous and mysterious, but even Feng Yuchan hurried over and greeted her respectfully.
As for the young man who came with her, everyone originally thought that he was just a servant. Unexpectedly, this low-pitched voice pretending to be smart once again proved his extraordinary knowledge, and his self-satisfaction sounded in everyone's ears: "This is the famous Feng Fairy of the Xiaoyao Sect, the famous Elder Feng Xixi! "
"Hiss! This is the Feng Fairy who is as famous as Mr. Geng! You are really lucky in your life!" Someone heard this person say this, although they saw Feng Yuchan leading the female cultivator and finally sitting down on the sandalwood couch. , but they also started talking about it.
"This, this, what is going on?" Something even more surprising happened, because the young man in Taoist robes actually sat down on the right side of Feng Xixi.
"Everyone, please be quiet for a moment. I think some of the colleagues who came to listen to the sermon today must already know about it! But I still want to introduce it to you ceremoniously!" I saw Feng Yuchan standing in front of the hall and speaking faintly, but as soon as her voice came out , the square suddenly became quiet.
It turned out that her voice was not loud, but her light and soft voice was clearly heard in everyone's ears. In an instant, everyone sobered up and understood that even someone like Feng Yuchan had unreachable heights, let alone an elder of the Xiaoyao Sect. A basin of cold water was poured down, and there was silence.
"Today, the person who is giving a sermon to all of you colleagues is Elder Feng Xixi of our sect. According to seniority, Uncle Feng is the elder of the first generation of the sect. He is a high-ranking person in our sect and can receive a sermon from Uncle Feng. For This is a rare opportunity for all my colleagues and disciples!" Feng Yuchan was obviously delighted, and even more excited when she introduced Feng Xixi's identity.
Sure enough, after hearing Feng Yuchan's words, the crowd in the square suddenly became excited: "We are so lucky to be able to have Elder Feng preach. I hope Elder Feng will take pity on you soon!"
"As for the cultivator you see now, although many of my colleagues may be unfamiliar with it, everyone must have been familiar with Master Xiao's name for a long time, because he is Master Xiao Cheng, who is now a household name in Jinling City!" I didn't expect it! Feng Yuchan looked at the young man with a bit of playfulness and even a blush on her face.
"Looking at Xiao Cheng's age, he must not have reached his prime. It is said that the king of the country looked at him with special eyes. He personally asked Gao Sixi, a close servant, to sit behind Mr. Geng at the palace banquet without any slightest indifference. Many people present at that time were The red-robed officials are all jealous." Listening to Feng Yuchan's words, Wu Kun was obviously shocked and looked at Xiao Cheng more thoughtfully!
"You must know that since the last years of Baoda, the Li family has only been an average person. Every time there is a palace banquet, there are only seven or eight people sitting under the imperial steps; even the big boss who has received the purple robe from the king can only hold more than twenty people. "The other red and red officials can't show their status!" Mao Buyi shook his head with a chuckle, but looked at Zeng Guofan.
"When the gentleman in question was in court, he and the big men in purple robes sat in the first row under the imperial steps. With his special status and status, no one dared to raise a voice or object. Those big men in scarlet robes from various ministries were actually the real decision-makers of the imperial court. But it is said that Mr. Geng’s seat is second only to the Grand Master, the Grand Tutor and the Grand Lieutenant, and in the first row where the purple-robed boss sits." As if he heard Feng Yuchan saying insignificant polite words, Zeng Guofan couldn't help but say quietly Said: "So this little Taoist priest can sit behind the purple robe, and naturally he will become a household name!"
"Mr. Geng of the Xiaoyao sect received a purple robe. Although he has no real power to walk in the court, he still has a real honor. Even more distinguished than those ministers and generals, the Xiaoyao sect has one or two supremes, and is envied by those who attend the palace banquet. , naturally it makes sense." Mao Buyi naturally knew because he had elders present.
Everyone is not surprised when they think of the relationship between Geng Xiansheng and Li Jing. At this time, when I saw the two people sitting in front of the palace door, they seemed more friendly and dignified. Especially when I think that Fairy Feng is an elder of the Xiaoyao Sect, and Xiao Cheng has inherited the mantle of the Living Buddha, it naturally makes people even more envious and respectful!
"It is said that the king gave a palace banquet. Geng Xiansheng and Mr. Ganggu, Hong Tianci, who was given purple clothes, gold and jade belts, were sitting in a row. You must know that Mr. Ganggu is a disciple of the Drunken Immortal Tan Qiao. Usually the Drunken Immortal is always there all year round. He lived in Lushan and practiced Taoism, and came to the palace from time to time to preach to the emperor. His immortal name has already become famous all over the world." Someone obviously knew what happened that day, so when he saw the two people appearing, and added what they said, he started talking in a low voice. With.
"You must know that the affairs outside Jinling City's Dharma Party and negotiations with the imperial court are all handed over to Mr. Ganggu. He is implicitly the representative of Jinling City's Taoists. Mr. Geng and Mr. Ganggu sat together, Naturally, it seems reasonable and graceful. The Zhengfa sect, which is now the largest Taoist sect in the Central Plains, was even more famous than the Xiaoyao sect at the time." This man looked at the hall with envy and was filled with sighs.
