Ji Laqing's pseudonym was Jia Qing. He wanted to join Gao Zhisheng, the Prime Minister of Dali, but Gao Zhisheng didn't like him. He sent him away with a few words. He took some reward money and left the Prime Minister's Palace Jia Qing angrily. He happened to see a A woman got out of the sedan. This woman's eyes were like spring water, and her skin seemed stagnant. Her body turned slightly and her long skirt spread out. Her movements were as graceful as a willow blowing in the wind. Jia Qing was stunned at this sight. He bumped into a Taoist priest head-on. .

Phew. Oops. The Taoist priest walked in such a hurry that he knocked Jia Qing down. The two of them looked at each other and almost went crazy. The maid next to the woman burst out laughing at the embarrassment of the two men.

"What are you laughing at? Have you never seen a passerby fall?" The woman glared at the maid and said softly. Without even looking at Jia Qing and the Taoist priest, she walked towards the Prime Minister's Mansion.

The sound was like a silver bell and as sweet as the sound of nature. Jia Qing and the Taoist priest had forgotten that they had just collided. They both stared at the woman's back with concentration. When the woman entered the Prime Minister's Palace, Jia Qing was still stretching his neck. .The eyes refused to leave.

"Fu Sheng Liang Tian Zun, this young master, are you okay?" the Taoist priest said with a salute.[

Jia Qing dusted off the dust on his body: "I bumped into you. You said it was okay." If this had been Xixia back then, I would have beaten you long ago. But there is no way now. A down-and-out phoenix is ​​worse than a chicken. He put it away He looked at the Taoist priest angrily. He laughed secretly in his heart that a monk didn't even look at the road. He saw that the Taoist priest was in his thirties or forties. He had three long beards on his thin forehead. He was wearing a blue robe and had a Taoist bun on his head. He holds Fuchen in his hand and carries a sword behind him.

The Taoist priest said with a sly smile: "Young Master, don't be surprised."

"Cheh!" Jia Qing was thinking about what to do in the future. He was also entangled with the Taoist priest. He turned to leave. Suddenly he heard the Taoist priest say: "Sir, I see your hall is shining brightly and your face is red. There may be a great opportunity." .How about I send you a few words."

"Uncle, I don't have any spare money. If you want to have your fortune read, ask someone else to do it." Jia Qing said angrily. He ignored the Taoist priest and turned around to go back to Ke Inn.

This is a small inn. There is a tavern on the first floor. Jia Qing ordered a bottle of wine and asked the waiter to cut a pound of meat. He ordered some peanuts and sat there drinking. What should he do next? Xixia definitely can’t go back, and Tubo doesn’t want to go either. Although this Laqing is a playboy, he is not the same. He has been practicing martial arts since he was a child, and he has become more and more powerful by relying on his little kung fu. He was tyrannical. He originally thought that his father could take over the country of Xixia, so that he could be the emperor for a while. Who knew that Cheng Yaojin would appear halfway through? All good things happened to one person. Thinking of this person, he felt itchy with hatred. of.

People were coming in and out of the tavern. Jia Qing was drinking. When he looked up, he saw a man walking into the tavern. Isn't this the Taoist priest just now? Seeing that he was dejected, the waiter greeted him: "Master Taoist, you are back. .”

What a coincidence. The Taoist priest also lives here. Anyway, there is no one he knows in this place, and there is no one to talk to. Ji Laqing also felt bored. He shouted to the Taoist priest: "That Taoist priest, come here."

What happened next was that the two of them sat together. They immediately felt like old friends and hated each other for a long time. In short, they talked about the world. Jia Qing was also depressed. He listened to the Taoist priest's compliments and drank some wine, and he felt even more relaxed. I thought about how there were so many people in front of me and behind me who were fawning over him. Now I am wandering abroad with an uncertain future. I saw that this Taoist priest seemed to be a bit spiritual, so I had the intention of making friends with him.

Jia Qing drank wine and smiled: "Don't you know how to do math? Then you do the math. Is the Prime Minister too busy with beauty and too lazy to pay attention to you?"

The Taoist priest took a wine pot and filled it for Jia Qing. He said: "How dare I compare with you, young master? You came out of the prime minister's house with real goods in your arms. It must be a reward from the prime minister. That means you have been appreciated by the prime minister. .Are you still afraid that there will be no way out in the future?"

Jia Qing glanced at Xuan Qing. Fortunately, he didn't fall for his trick. He put the silver rewarded by the Prime Minister in his arms and bumped into him. He must have noticed it. It was such a hard thing. Who would put a stone in his arms? Ah. It turned out that he was talking to me because he wanted to inquire about the Prime Minister. Thinking of this, Jia Qing smiled and said, "Taoist Master Xuan Qing is interesting. He clearly saw me coming out of the Prime Minister's Palace. Why did he bump into me?"

"I can't dodge. I can't dodge. Haha," Xuan Qing said with a smile. Then he added: "It is fate that I can marry the young master today. In the future, the young master will be appreciated. Don't forget me as an old friend."

This Taoist priest's name was Xuan Qing. He won a lot of rewards for his advice and offered unicorns to the Song Dynasty. Later he traveled around and happened to arrive in Dali. Like Jia Qing, he originally wanted to join the Prime Minister, but his experience was not as good as it was. As for Jia Qing, Gao Zhisheng heard that a Taoist priest had come, but he didn't even see him.

"Hey, appreciation from the Prime Minister is nothing. Besides, I don't necessarily care about appreciation from the Prime Minister." Jia Qing said sourly.

The Taoist priest felt the same way. The two disliked people sat together and felt sorry for each other. Xuan Qing said: "That's right. You must know that big trees attract the wind. The prime minister is so smart and young. He has such power. He must also be ambitious. It's better to keep a distance." It’s good.”

His words touched Jia Qing's mind. Thinking of his father's head being chopped off in the city, Jia Qing panicked in his heart: "Humph. What if he fails in his ambition? He won't even have a place to stay in the future." .”

Xuan Qing listened to Jia Qing's words and looked around. Although the tavern was not big, there were people coming in and out intermittently, but there was no one around their table. He whispered: "I said, why don't we just leave the watermelon and pick it up?" Sesame. What kind of official position can you get if you follow the prince? If you can get the evidence, Mr. Jia will have done a great job in the Dali court. My experience is that if you hug a tree, you must hug a big tree. Otherwise, how could I have fished from Jiaozhi back then? One vote.”

"What do you mean?" Jia Qing stopped holding the wine glass on his lips and looked at Xuan Qing.

"Haha. To be honest, I think Mr. Jia is also a competitive person. How can he be patient here? Why don't you and I go to Yangju City. Maybe we will have more opportunities than here in Baiya."[

Yangju City is located in the Erhai area. It is the capital of Dali. It was decided that the two of them would go together and stay in the city for a few days. Every day Xuan Qing would leave early and return late in a mysterious manner. On this day, when he came back, he brought it to Jia Qing A piece of good news. The Emperor of Dali Kingdom summoned him. This was great news. Jia Qing was so happy when he heard it. His face was pockmarked. It seemed that he was really serious this time. It's about to be transferred.

Jia Qing also said mysteriously: "Do you know who the girl you saw in front of the Prime Minister's Palace is?"

Jia Qing has been obsessed with this girl these days. He is almost lovesick. When he heard the news about that girl, Jia Qing blinked his little eyes and listened carefully.

"This girl's name is Duan Su. She is the sister of the current Emperor of Dali. But she is not born to a mother."

"That's not right. Why did the emperor's sister run away to Baiya?"

Jia Qing chuckled: "This imperial sister has been arrogant and indulgent since she was a child. This time she went out of the palace privately to see the Prime Minister. The emperor is very angry about this."

"Alas." Jia Qing was angry. He also knew that he was destined to be beautiful.

"Why are you sighing? The emperor is already worried about the power of the prime minister. Will he let the prime minister become the uncle again? I think the emperor is hesitant. This is a good opportunity..." Xuan Qing squinted and stroked his Three strokes of long beard.

"It's not our turn to think about it." Jia Qing has grown a lot in recent years and is somewhat self-aware.

"Yes. But this is not what the Emperor of Dali is worried about now. Nowadays, Tubo has a close relationship with the Song Dynasty. I heard that there is going to be a Zhennan King in Yongzhou, east of Dali, in the Song Dynasty. And he is the only one in the Song Dynasty. A king with a different surname is said to have come to guard Yongzhou in Guangnan Autonomous Region. This man is quite remarkable. The Liao Kingdom borrowed troops to attack Goryeo. I heard that he even went to Xixia back then. If this man came to Yongzhou, he was a man east of Dali. A nail. If this kid becomes warlike, then the country of Dali will be at peace. I think we should leave Dali. Why don't you go to Jiaozhi with me? I can also help you secure an official position." This Jia said. Qing is a Taoist priest. He cannot be an official. But it would be nice to have a solid supporter if he has a friend who is a high official.

"Been to Xixia. When did you go? What is this person's name?" When Jia Qing heard this, his heart skipped a beat.

"I heard that this man is called Wang Pang. And now many people on the border of Dali are going to Yongzhou. It is said that the King of Zhennan wants to build a market there. Who do you think this person is? A prince from the Song Dynasty. How could he be like this? He has such a great reputation. Do you think this person can defect to him?" Xuan Qing muttered.

"cannot."

Jia Qing and Xuan Qing did not reveal the truth. He would not tell Xuan Qing how he came to Xixia. In Xuan Qing's eyes, Jia Qing had been an official in Xixia and Tubo. He was good at literature and military, but his official luck was not good. He has never been taken seriously. That's why he came to Dali. When he heard the name Wang Pang, Jia Qing's scalp went crazy. He was angry and scared at the same time.

Xuan Qing looked at Jia Qing with his eyes wide open. He gritted his teeth and said no with a red face. Who is he talking to? If you can't, just can't. Why are you so angry?

"Then tell me, what should we do now?" Xuan Qing spread his hands. Anyway, I have done everything I should do. The road is almost paved. Now two people are like grasshoppers on a rope. It takes two people to jump. Jump together.

Jia Qing's eyes rolled. Beauty, beauty. Although the beauty is good, she is not mine. Since the emperor is worried about the whereabouts of this beauty, why don't I help him find a place for her.

"Master Xuan, I have a plan that kills three birds with one stone. It can appease Tubo and test Wang Pang. At the same time, it can also allow the emperor to test whether the Prime Minister is loyal. However, you have to find a way to let me see Emperor Dali. "

"What's so difficult about this? I'll just lift you up in front of the emperor later. But what's your plan? Can you tell me first?"

Jia Qing raised the corner of his mouth and snorted coldly: "As long as this girl Duan Su doesn't marry the Prime Minister, she can marry the son of Tubo Dong Xiang. She can also offer her to the king to show her sincerity. Then let the Prime Minister come forward to propose marriage. A gift. What do you think, Taoist Master Xuan?"

Xuan Qing squinted his eyes and thought for a while, then suddenly laughed and said: "Hahaha. What a clever idea. I really saw the right person. Mr. Jia is much worse than me..."
