Xie Yixiang knew that Hu Lao had been born in Jinling since he was a child and had never left for decades, and since he had decided to go to the Purple Mountain, he immediately took the topic away and turned to him to ask him about Taiyuan Temple. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 ｉｎｆｏ

The old Hu felt ashamed in his heart, and hurriedly told him: "The Taiyuan Temple was built more than a hundred years ago, it is a Taoist temple view, which belongs to the Taoist lineage of the Heavenly Master, and is dedicated to the statue of the Sanqing God. Because of the large scale and the profound and strict Taoism, after several generations of teaching, its limelight actually overwhelmed the Quanzhen Dao, which was prevalent at that time, so it was recognized by the royal family of the previous dynasty and was named the royal dojo. Ning Cui interjected and said: "In this way, the reason why the imperial court has a grudge with Taiyuan Guan is because Taiyuan Guan has been rewarded by the previous dynasty?"

Hu Lao thought for a while and said, "That's not bad, but it's not quite. The temper of the current emperor is understood even by the peddlers and pawns on the street, how can he tolerate such a blatant cultivation of his own power by the capital as the Taiyuan Guan? Not to mention that the martial arts fame of the current generation of Xiyi Zhenren are all first-class figures, and they were famous all over the world in the previous dynasty, so they are very conceited. I remember that more than ten years ago, when I rebelled against Jiegan and overthrew the tyranny of the previous dynasty, this Xiyi Zhenren still had the idea of dominating one side, and wanted to learn from the ancestor of Chen Chuan in the Song Dynasty and take the Purple Mountain for himself. At that time, General Bi Wuzong, who was known as the 'immortal pioneer', was still alive, so he asked him to try his tricks on the top of the Purple Mountain to determine victory or defeat. Among the people present to do the notarization was your father, General Xie. ”

It was the first time Xie Yixiang had heard of this old adulthood, and it turned out that Na Xiyi Zhenren and his father actually had such a holiday. Recalling that night at Wuhou's house, he and his father were able to escape from Na Xiyi Zhenren and Han Feng's hands, but it was a blessing in misfortune, and he was still a little afraid.

She hurriedly asked Hu Lao about the results of this trial, but Hu Lao sighed: "After all, it was many years ago, but I'm afraid the world has long forgotten it." As for the course of this battle, I am afraid that except for the three people present at the time and a few apprentices of Xiyi Zhenren, no one else knows the details. However, the result of this battle is known to all, and after this battle, the Xiyi Zhenren bowed down to our court, and no longer dared to have the idea of becoming the king. In addition, he also made a vow with the imperial court not to step out of the Purple Mountain for half a step for life, which can be regarded as a retirement from the rivers and lakes. ”

Xie Yixiang secretly calculated that although his father's martial arts were extremely high, he was afraid that there was still a gap compared to Na Xiyi Zhenren. In the past, General Bi Wuzong and his father were equally famous, and they were both famous generals in the army, so they thought that their martial arts should be among the best. From this point of view, the reason why Bi Wuzong was able to win that battle back then was only because his father was not just sweeping the formation. Maybe the two of them joined forces, which suppressed Na Xiyi Zhenren.

However, when I heard Hu Lao talk about the oath of Na Xiyi Zhenren to "never go to the Purple Mountain", I clearly saw him come to Jinling City that night, and he also fought with his father, and couldn't help but ask about the oath of the Purple Mountain. Hu Lao hurriedly shook his head and said: "Of course this oath is true, otherwise how would the emperor tolerate him to this day? Since the oath was made, Xiyi Zhenren has indeed never gone down the Purple Mountain again, and the believers of Taiyuan Guan in this area know that the head of Taiyuan Guan never goes down the mountain, but if he asks for anything, he has to go up the mountain to meet him in person." “

Xie Yixiang didn't want to tell everyone about the fight between his father and Xiyi Zhenren that night, so he had to ask tentatively: "If that Xiyi Zhenren really broke the contract and went down the mountain, what does it mean?"

Hu Lao's face was slightly gloomy, and he muttered: "This oath was made with the imperial court, if Xiyi Zhenren breaks the contract, it will be a break with the imperial court." Ning Cui, who was beside her, suddenly interjected and said: "The little woman has heard some rumors, in that battle, Xiyi Zhenren suffered extremely serious internal injuries, so that the meridians were greatly damaged, so she honestly made an oath and never set foot in the rivers and lakes again." I've heard people say that if Xiyi Zhenren wants to heal his injuries, he is afraid that he will only have to rely on some secret techniques of evil demons. ”

Xie Yixiang recalled the situation when she met Xiyi Zhenren that night, and saw that he was fighting with his father, and if his meridians were damaged, he would be cured. Hu Lao nodded and said, "There are indeed such rumors, but whether it really hurt his meridians is unknown." Over the past few days, Taiyuan has been showing kindness and sheltering many refugees in the vicinity. Na Xiyi Zhenren is not a good person, and they are afraid that there is another deep meaning in their actions......"

Xie Yixiang saw that he was silent, and asked, "Old Hu, what is the deep meaning in your opinion?" Hu Lao sneered and said, "What other deep meaning can there be? Naturally, it is to buy people's hearts." In my opinion, this Xiyi Zhenren is a restless lord after all, and sooner or later he will have to make some noise. The third lady remembered to listen to the old slave's words, don't go to the Purple Mountain to visit my son-in-law in the near future, let alone mess with the real person of Xiyi. Once the errand assigned by the emperor is completed, my son-in-law will definitely leave with his whole body, and I will let him be the first to come to you when the time comes. ”

Xie Yixiang promised on her lips, but she had already made up her mind in her heart to go to the Purple Mountain. At that moment, she exchanged a few more words with Hu Lao, and then hurriedly said goodbye to Hu Lao with Ning Cui. As soon as he got out of the gate of Xianfu, he remembered that his horse was still outside Lord Xu's mansion, so he said to Ning Cui: "Let's go to the torture room to ask for two horses, and then we will rush to Taiyuan Temple." ”

But seeing Ning Cui's embarrassed expression, he shook his head and said, "I don't ride a horse." She frowned and added, "The smell on horses is too strong, I'm not used to it." ”

Xie Yixiang couldn't laugh or cry a little, recalling her kicking the table to block the rain that night, and wiping the tables and chairs in Xiangyuju before, she couldn't imagine that Ning Cui, a woman from the rivers and lakes, was even more delicate than Miss Shen. At that moment, she had to smile bitterly: "Then I'll hire a carriage, or find a soft sedan chair." ”

Ning Cui shook his head and said, "It's good that I'm still staying in the city, and I'm not going with you." If there is any change in my sister's departure, I will have a care in the city. As she spoke, she looked at the setting sun to the west, "If my sister doesn't come back by sunrise tomorrow, I will go to the torture room and the general's mansion and inform them to discuss countermeasures." ”

Xie Yixiang thought about it, it was reasonable, if something really happened, he still had to inform Zhuang Haoming and his father, so he explained a few words to Ning Cui and left immediately. She retrieved her mount from Xu's mansion and hurried to the east of the city.

The Purple Mountain is in the eastern suburbs outside the city, only more than ten miles away, all the way to Wenyuan Road, through Qingxi Street, the Dong'an Gate in the east of the capital appears in front of you. She was about to gallop out of the city, but she saw a street patrol standing straight in the middle of the street, with his arms outstretched, blocking her way.

He looked to be in his twenties, with thick eyebrows and big eyes, and a long body. Xie Yixiang couldn't help but feel good, slowly stopped the horse, and said lightly: "Get out of the way." The man said respectfully: "Please also ask the third lady to go with me to the Yingtianfu Yamen to explain that you humiliated the two street patrol officers on the street at noon today." ”

It turned out that it was to ask for an explanation for the two drunk men at noon, Xie Yixiang suddenly looked disdainful, and sneered: "Since you know me, you should know that this is a criminal arrest room." Whether it was them at that time or you at this time, hindering me is obstructing official business, which of you can afford this crime?" The tolerance was not afraid, but smiled instead: "Miss Xie San is so powerful, could it be that the people in your torture room are so unreasonable?"

Xie Yixiang's face sank, and she was about to attack, but she saw that the tolerance was groping behind her waist in a hurry, and then slowly pulled out a dark dry tobacco rod, and reached into the cigarette pouch on her waist to pinch out a pinch of tobacco, and casually filled the cigarette holder.

You must know that since the opening of the sea in the past, tobacco has flowed into the Central Plains from the South Seas, and now there are many smokers from the court officials to the common people, and it is extremely common for this substance. However, at this moment, seeing the dry smoke from this street patrol, Xie Yixiang suddenly thought about it, and said in surprise: "It's you?"
