Xu Fenglei got off his horse and raised his hand towards Li Junxian.
"No, I went to the East Palace to find the prince."
He asked with a smile,
"I should be able to go, right?"
The last time he came back, it was smooth.
Li Junxian also showed a smile and said:
"Of course Grand Master can go, but His Majesty has a verbal order."
"If you come back, go to the study room to see him first."
"So, Grand Master, please follow General Mo to the study."
After that, he took the initiative to hold Xu Fenglei's horse and walked towards the palace.
Xu Fenglei was slightly startled.
"This... okay."
He was a little confused, and some thoughts came to his mind.
Did the emperor give an oral order in advance?
This seems a bit unusual.
Think again of the atmosphere in Chang'an that Wu Yatou just mentioned...
Xu Fenglei suddenly felt a little heavy in his heart.
…
Go to the study room.
Li Shimin saw Xu Fenglei walking in and slowly put down the memorial in his hand.
"You came."
He said lightly,
"Since you're back, you should already know about it, right?"
Xu Fenglei: "??"
What?
what do you know?
He was a little confused for a moment, but he immediately reacted, and his heart instantly sank to the bottom.
It seems...
All the bold guesses and speculations are true!
"Um."
Xu Fenglei felt a little uncomfortable in his heart. He couldn't accept this fact for a while, so he could only make a dull sigh.
But after Li Shimin heard this "hmm", his expression suddenly changed, he picked up the memorial on the table and threw it directly at Xu Fenglei!
boom!
"You taught me a great apprentice!"
Li Er could no longer suppress the anger in his heart and shouted sharply,
"What has he learned! Tell me, what has he learned!"
The memorial hit Xu Fenglei impartially, but he did not hide, but he looked a little lonely.
"I don't know, I don't know..."
"Why would he be like this, why would he do this?"
"He...has his brain broken?"
Wu Erya had analyzed Xu Fenglei's case many times, and as more and more clues became available, the suspicion that Li Chengqian was up to something was becoming more and more serious.
But Xu Fenglei was unwilling to believe that Li Chengqian would rebel from beginning to end.
This is the child he watched grow up!
He knows best what kind of character this child has. He can't suddenly change into a different person!
"hehe."
Li Shimin sneered and said,
"He's not out of his mind, but he's resentful of me and has ambitions for the throne!"
"He wants to collude with the foreign general and take my place! Let me play the same trick against my father all over again!"
Speaking of this, he suddenly laughed miserably.
"Haha, hahaha..."
"The one who created the figurines has no descendants?"
"Now, I finally understand what this means. If my son rebels against me, my grandson will rebel against his son, and then let the whole world see the joke of our Li family!"
"Do you think it's funny or not? Is it funny?"
Li Shimin had been holding back his inner emotions for almost two months. Now when he saw Xu Fenglei, he couldn't help it anymore and simply vented all his emotions!
Every word he said would kill anyone who heard it!
In the entire Tang Dynasty, only Xu Fenglei could barely resist...
In fact, Xu Fenglei was a little overwhelmed at this moment!
He turned his head sharply and cursed:
"I'm going to find him! I'm going to scold him to wake him up! I'm going to beat him to wake him up!"
"This little beast! He...how dare he!"
This time, Xu Fenglei felt completely furious! I can't wait to put this bastard Li Chengqian into the stove and burn it to burn away all those evil thoughts and delusions!
Snapped!
As he raised his leg, Li Shimin grabbed his shoulder.
"do not go."
Li Er calmed down and said quietly,
"Let him continue to perform. I want to see what tricks he can finally pull off and what tricks he can make."
"This is also the last chance I give him."
Xu Fenglei's eyes widened.
"If his conscience is still intact and he can wake up at the last moment and pull back from the brink, then I may be able to give him a lighter sentence, but if he insists on having his own way..."
Li Shimin whispered,
"Then, no wonder I am."
"The civil and military officials of the entire dynasty, the people of the world, including you, Guanyin and the maidservants, and the people of the future generations after thousands of generations."
"It's all my fault."
At this moment, Li Shimin's eyes flickered.
At this moment, Xu Fenglei felt a breath stuck in his chest, making it difficult for him to breathe.
"Can……"
"But I don't want to see him sink like this. He must be bewitched by others. He..."
"Shut up!" Xu Fenglei wanted to say more, but was interrupted by Li Shimin's sharp shout!
"Bewitched by others? Is he a puppet? Is he a fool?!"
Li Shimin said sharply,
"He is already a prince! As long as he follows the steps, he will be the emperor in the future!"
"In order to reassure him, I won't even go to King Wei now! I have also handed over many government affairs to him!"
"When I went to Mount Jiuyi, I also handed over the power of supervising the country to him. What kind of important use is this? What kind of trust? When I came back, although his performance was average, I still did not hesitate to praise him. he!"
"These are all recorded by historians!"
"But him, how did he repay me? When I thought about how he was respectful and well-behaved on the surface, but secretly wanted to kill his father and seize the throne, I felt sick, you know? I felt sick! The day I learned the truth, I retched. Half an hour!"
“Do you know, do you know!!”
He grasped Xu Fenglei's shoulders tightly with both hands and spoke every word through gritted teeth. With every word he spoke, the veins on his neck swelled.
By the end, the veins on Li Shimin's face and neck were already extremely hideous and terrifying!
Xu Fenglei was shaken around by Li Shimin, and his expression was extremely ugly.
yes……
Li Chengqian, this bastard, what is he trying to do? !
The most incomprehensible thing is why he colluded with Hou Junji! What on earth is going on in his mind?
Li Shimin took a deep breath and calmed down again.
"actually……"
He whispered,
"It must be a mixed blessing for you. I have protected Hou Junji for so long, and I tried to influence him, but I didn't expect that what I got in return was his wolfish ambition."
"Perhaps a great favor is as great as a great hatred."
"It's okay, it's okay... This time, I will not be merciful anymore. No matter what the final result is, I will kill him and destroy his nine tribes."
The tone was very bland.
But the overwhelming murderous intention in Li Shimin could not be concealed at all!
He has never wanted to kill someone as much as he does now! there has never been!
"I wish I had killed him sooner."
Xu Fenglei murmured,
"If you had killed him earlier, you wouldn't have been involved in so many things."
"I have long said that this animal deserves to be killed, it deserves to be killed!"
I didn't expect it, I didn't expect it...
In history, Cheng Qian colluded with Hou Junji to rebel, and it happened again! And it’s years in advance!
And the result is destined.
Xu Fenglei felt a deep sense of powerlessness in his heart, and he felt like he was turning the steering wheel hard, but the car was still driving towards the cliff, and eventually fell off the cliff...
His more than ten years of cultivation and more than ten years of hard work...all of them have been fed to the dog!
"I think it's a good thing to keep him here until now, doing such an unfavorable thing."
Li Shimin looked at Xu Fenglei and said coldly,
"At the very least, it can make me see clearly the wolfish ambitions of some beasts, and let me know that the throne cannot be trusted to others!"
Xu Fenglei fell into silence.
He couldn't say anything more.
"Go ahead and watch with me."
Li Shimin waved his hand and said,
"In two or three days, Hou Junji will arrive in Chang'an with his fifty thousand troops and the so-called Buddha bones."
"Let's watch their performance."
Xu Fenglei pursed his lips and finally nodded heavily.
"...obey the order."
He took a deep breath, exhaled it slowly, and said in a deep voice,
"If Cheng Qian really did that, it proves that he is really not qualified to be the crown prince of the Tang Dynasty."
"When the time comes, Your Majesty should choose another prince to be the crown prince."
"My lord, please retire."
After that, Xu Fenglei bowed slightly and left the Tai Chi Palace.
The sun was shining brightly outside, but his mood was shrouded in a thick layer of haze.
Walking slowly, when he saw the East Palace not far away, he couldn't help but stamp his feet.
"Damn, you bastard!"
After cursing for several times, he felt a little better and left the palace.
Since the emperor said wait and see, then he will wait and see!
Look at this bastard, is he really capable of doing evil things?
…
That night.
In Xu Guogong's mansion, Sun Simiao looked at Xu Fenglei, shook his head and said:
"If you are restless and angry, don't even think about attaining enlightenment!"
"Whether you are practicing Buddhism or Taoism, the most important thing is tranquility. As soon as I come here, I feel that your whole body is restless. How can you practice like this?"
“It’s hard to just calm down and get rid of distracting thoughts!”
Gudong, Gudong.
Xu Fenglei took a sip of tea by himself.
"I'm just in a bad mood now that something happened!"
He said expressionlessly,
"Normally, I'm still very quiet."
"Just tell me, which road should I choose now? How should I start?"
"When I calm down, I will practice hard."
Sun Simiao stroked his white beard.
"Kung Fu is a secret that is not taught. As the saying goes, don't practice Taoism until you meet a true master."
He smiled lightly and said,
"Fortunately, I can be regarded as a true master, but cultivation is a secret matter, and the teaching of the Dharma cannot be taught except by direct disciples."
"According to the rules, you have to kowtow to me and become my disciple, so that I can teach you real things!"
When Xu Fenglei heard this, he couldn't help but rolled his eyes.
"Teach or not? If not, I'll leave!"
He got up and left.
"Oh, okay, okay, I'm kidding you."
Sun Simiao chuckled and said,
"You really can't stand teasing."
"Well, since you are determined to practice, I think you are really good at it, so I will teach you how to practice."
"My Taoist practice takes Yin Fu Jing and Tao Te Ching as the general outline, Zhuangzi's 'Xin Zhai' as the essence, and Wei Boyang's Shen Tong Qi as the starting point."
"Don't practice any side sects, just go straight to the root of the great path! Of course, you can minor in medicine, it's very useful."
Xu Fenglei's expression changed, and he began to prick up his ears and listen carefully.
Every word Sun Simiao says now is worth thousands of gold!
If ordinary people want to hear it, they really have to kowtow and worship the master, and they also have to investigate and observe. Only after passing it will they have the chance to obtain the Dharma!
"I just said that no matter whether you are practicing Buddhism or Taoism, you must pay attention to tranquility."
Sun Simiao said in a deep voice,
"In fact, I have heard that the practice of Hinayana Buddhism is really unique. In terms of self-cultivation, Buddhist research is very in-depth and its achievements are also very high."
"I heard that Master Xuanzang went to the Western Regions to obtain the true scriptures. In fact, I am really curious about how special Mahayana Buddhism is."
"If he comes back, I will have a good communication with him."
Xu Fenglei was startled.
Speaking of Xuanzang, he almost forgot about the young eminent monk with a face as beautiful as a crown jewel.
Historically, he returned to Chang'an at the end of Zhenguan.
However, since he left early with his own help, he should be able to return early, right?
"Counting the days, it should be almost here."
He said,
"When he comes back, I'm afraid everyone will be empty. It's so legendary."
"When the time comes, Buddhism will inevitably flourish, and our Taoist sect will inevitably introduce a benchmark figure to balance it."
"Zhenzhen Sun, it will be you in eighty percent, and you have to cooperate when the time comes."
Sun Simiao laughed dumbly.
"Do I care about those people with false reputations? Whether Buddhism is flourishing or Taoism is flourishing, it has nothing to do with me."
"Okay, let's stop talking about that and get back to the topic."
Xu Fenglei nodded. At this moment, he also entered the state and humbly asked for advice.
“There are many types of Jing Ding Kung Fu, but they are also divided into conditioned methods and unconducted methods.”
Sun Simiao said again,
"There are thousands of conditioned methods, some of which are feasible, but most of them are not feasible and will cause problems. Why? Just because the intention is to stick to a certain place and the intention is too heavy, the qi will be blocked and diseases will occur. Come."
"Just talking about guarding the Dantian, I don't know how many people have gone wrong. Especially female cultivators, they can't do it like this at all."
"Problems caused by cultivation are difficult to be cured by gods!"
"There is only one method of doing nothing, which is the most extraordinary and risk-free. Listen up, this is a secret that is not taught, and that is..."
As he spoke, he put his mouth to Xu Fenglei's ear and whispered softly.
This untold secret only comes from my mouth to your ears, and there is no fifth ear to hear it.
…
After a while.
"I understand. Now I can understand some of the words in the Tao Te Ching."
Xu Fenglei took a deep breath and sighed,
"It turns out that cultivation is real."
"Then Master Sun, I dare to ask, is there really a capable person who can become an immortal and live forever in this world?"
When Sun Simiao heard this question, he smiled slightly but remained silent.
"Why don't you say it? Can't you say it?"
Xu Fenglei said doubtfully.
Lao Suntou always knew everything and talked about everything, and rarely gave him any excuses.
"Well, I can't say."
Sun Simiao said,
"I told you, I'm afraid you will be frightened and give up on practice."
Xu Fenglei was startled.
"There's nothing to be afraid of. The worst case scenario is that you can't do it, so just die."
He said nonchalantly.
"Just keep practicing, don't ask so many questions."
Sun Simiao stood up slowly and said,
"When you reach the realm, many things will naturally become clear to you. Don't be greedy for asking."
"It's getting late. I'm leaving. You should go to bed early and talk again when you have time."
After saying that, he turned around and walked away, leaving Xu Fenglei alone sitting on the chair, silent.
Then, he slowly closed his eyes according to the true technique taught by Sun Simiao...
