wedge

On the fourth day of the first month of the twentieth year of the opening of the Great Sui Emperor, the heavy snow began to fall from the first night, and at the beginning it was snow foam that could easily get into the collar of people's clothes, and on the morning of the fourth day of the new year, it became a goose feather snow. That is, half a day, on the street, the roof of the house is covered with a thick layer of snow.

Daxing City, the capital of the Great Sui Kingdom, was built in the second year of the emperor under the supervision of Yu Wenkai according to the dragon's head, and the momentum was magnificent. There is a small temple about two miles away from the imperial city, the incense is deserted, and few people usually come, and it seems that there are more people in this snowy weather. In a room in the courtyard, an old nun who was already dying muttered to herself with an infant child in her arms.

The old nun couldn't tell how old she was, her eyebrows were white, her eyebrows were kind, and the wrinkles at the corners of her eyes were like the rings of a tree, announcing that this person had gone through too many years.

An old nun who is single here is actually holding an infant baby in her arms, which looks very weird. The baby was only three or five months old, and the porcelain doll with clear eyebrows and beautiful eyes was like a cute one.

"Little guy, which child are you so well-behaved and cute? Which family is so ruthless that you left you outside the door of my little temple on a snowy day? Hehe...... The couple who lost you are really idiots, your child has such a good face, although he must have experienced twists and turns in his early years, and after the age of fifteen, he will be rich and rich, and he can't stop it. ”

The old nun squinted her eyes and muttered to herself, holding a bowl of rice soup in her hand and sending it into the child's mouth little by little.

"Think about it, how many people have I seen you like this in my life? I'll do the math, I'll do the math...... Alas...... After all, there is only one surnamed Yang who is comparable to you, but he is blessed and rich for only two generations. You little guy is different, it seems that you have two hundred and sixty years of glory and respect. ”

Coughing a few times, the old nun's expression became gloomy: "It's just a pity, my life will only be cut off today, and you will only fall into my hands today." If I die, who will feed you? ”

"If you let me die with me, it will be too much of a sin, and in the next reincarnation, I am afraid that even if I enter the beast path, it will be difficult to withstand the sin. That's it, although it is very dangerous to hand you over to him, it is better than death. It's just that the man's surname is rude and heroic, and it makes it difficult for him to let a big man feed an infant child, hehe......"

The old nun put the last mouthful of rice soup into the baby's arms, and the baby lay quietly after eating his full stomach, looking at the old nun with a pair of eyes that seemed to be able to speak, and suddenly babbling and laughing, and the cute appearance made people can't help but want to kiss his chubby face.

The nun was so old that she struggled to pick up the baby and walk outside. Before she could reach the door, she stumbled and almost fell, rushed forward a few steps and leaned against the door and gasped for air. She looked down at the baby in her arms, her eyes soft and full of love.

"The deadline is approaching, and non-human beings can stop it. But it doesn't matter, I'm just desperate to send you away. There is a stinky Taoist priest by the side of the surnamed Yang who is very tight, and he must have reached my lifespan, and if I don't send you away today, if you fall into the hands of the surnamed Yang, you will only end up being thrown to death. The surnamed Yang is extremely rich but not very broad-minded, and with that stinky Taoist priest by his side, he will definitely not leave a way to live for you. ”

While the old nun was talking to the baby, a group of people came out of the palace, and hurried towards the small temple with a carriage. Hundreds of cavalrymen in iron armor guarded the front and back of the carriage, all of which were red horses with cold and faint lances in the hands of knights, with indescribable majesty.

Next to the carriage, a Taoist man in his mid-forties rode on a tall horse. This person only wore a single coat in such a cold weather, and he was able to resist the wind and snow. He was already handsome, with three long wisps of beard, a whisk in his arms, and he looked elegant and chic sitting on a tall horse. If you look closely, you will find that the goose-feathered snow can't even get close to him, and the place in front of him will grow like an eye and automatically avoid it.

Compared with the ironclad knight who was covered in snow, this person naturally stood out.

This person's name is Zhang Tianyi, and he is the Heavenly Master of the Heavenly Master Mansion of Longhu Mountain. The Tao is profound, and it has the ability to be unpredictable. Later, he was edicted into the palace by His Majesty Emperor Wen of the Great Sui Dynasty and was awarded the title of protector.

There is only one person who can let the protector mage follow him on one side, and there is only one person in the current Great Sui Dynasty. Over there is today, Emperor Yang Jian.

"Heavenly Master, are you right?"

A low question came from the sedan chair, and the man's voice was slightly hoarse but very majestic. Just listening to what he said, one can tell that this man must be a man of great majesty.

Zhang Tianshi leaned slightly on the horse and said, "Your Majesty, originally that Miaozhen Mage concealed the celestial phenomena with great mana, and the poor Dao could not see through it. It's just that I don't know why her mana suddenly dispersed before a stick of incense, and when she saw that the sky was different, she deduced that another hour would be the limit of Master Miaozhen, and it would definitely not be wrong. ”

"In that case, you have to go quickly, and it is better to see the Master one last time. The mage Yu I had great kindness, and if it weren't for the mage's presence, I was afraid that I would be killed as soon as I was born. Later, the mage took me away from home for more than ten years, teaching me to read and write, and the art of war. I always wanted to give the mage a great fortune, but the mage only wanted to be accompanied by the ancient Buddha, and I finally failed her. If I can't send the mage on the last journey, I can't be at ease. ”

Zhang Tianshi said: "Your Majesty, rest assured, there is still some time, and it will not be too late." ”

Emperor Yang Jian hummed, and then stopped speaking.

Zhang Tianshi thought about it for a while, but still reached out from his cuffs, pinched the magic seal and counted back and forth, and was sure that he was not wrong in his speculation. It's just that he doesn't know why, he was faintly flustered in his heart, and he always felt that something outside the rules of heaven and earth had been inserted inforcedly, and that person or thing was so powerful that he was so far away that he was uneasy.

Could it be that Master Miao Zhen got some treasure before he died?

Zhang Tianshi secretly speculated.

Just as he was thinking, suddenly a black shadow swooped down from the roof of the house in the distance like an eagle. The man came so fast that the ironclad cavalry in front of him raised his sharp lance, and the man was already spinning in mid-air, stepping on the head of a cavalryman and landing in front of the sedan chair.

"Haha, Niubi, where are you going to harm people?"

When the man fell, everyone saw that this person was actually a strong man with a height of nine feet! With wide shoulders and narrow hips, a tiger's back and a wolf's waist, wearing a heavy robe with a ferret collar, he stood in front of everyone with a smile. A group of guards immediately swung their weapons and pounced on him, and Leng Sensen's long lance was aimed at the big man like a jungle.

This man is extremely burly, standing in the crowd as if he stands out from the crowd. The soldiers present were all carefully selected veterans of a hundred battles, all of them were skilled, but compared to this person, they were like children who had not yet grown up, although there were many cavalrymen, they were far less imposing than him alone. There were even soldiers who were trampled on their heads, why did such a big man just step on his head but it seemed that he was just gently patted by someone?

Zhang Tianshi looked at the bearded man and sighed, "Zhang Zhongjian, why are you here to be troublesome?" ”

……

In June of the fourth year of the Great Sui Renshou, Yang Jian, the dying founding emperor of the Great Sui, took the hand of his second son Yang Guang and said word by word: "That child's surname is Li!" Remember, remember! It's better to kill the wrong than to let it go! ”

Yang Guang nodded heavily: "Father, don't worry, Erchen remembers, that child's surname is Li, and he would rather kill the wrong one than let it go!" ”

ps: The wedge is written in a more fantasy way, just to arouse your reading**. The nuns mentioned in it, the heavenly master or something, don't take it too seriously. The nuns are still well documented, but Zhang Tianshi is indeed a little bloody, but it is just a trick added to set off the mystery of the old nun. The Heavenly Master's Mansion was only established in the Song Dynasty, and Longhu Mountain should not even be a national tourist scenic spot at this time. The purpose of the things mentioned in the wedge is actually to lay the groundwork for the main plot of the book, and you can focus on the last paragraph, which is the main contradiction.
