Chapter 70 Secrets
Luo Gongyuan is said to be a miraculous person, and both Zhang Guolao and Zhang Guolao are regarded as gods by the world.
The last time I saw the Three Saints fighting, although there were some tricks, Li Jiuzhou felt that it was just a deception.
In the Shunxing Film Hall, Luo Gongyuan was wearing a Taoist robe and a shawl on his head, decorated with Chinese cloud patterns. He was luxurious but solemn. He was reclining on a bench, looking like an immortal.
As if he had known that Li Jiuzhou would come, Luo Gongyuan said as soon as Li Jiuzhou stepped in the door: "I have been waiting for a long time."
Although Li Jiuzhou was a little surprised, he did not forget to bow gracefully. He raised his head and stood still before saying, "I do have something to ask the real person when I come here this time."
Luo Gongyuan stood up slowly, his steps were light and seemed to be floating. He came to the front, reached out and gently flicked a dead leaf from Li Jiuzhou's hair, and said: "Sit down."
Seeing that he looked like an immortal, Li Jiuzhou couldn't help but respect him with great respect. He complimented him once before daring to sit down.
Luo Gongyuan smiled slightly and did not comment.
Seeing that he didn't ask, Li Jiuzhou took the initiative to speak: "Does the real person know any way to bring the dead back to life in this world?"
Luo Gongyuan kept a calm smile on his face and looked forward.
Li Jiuzhou didn't know what he meant, so he looked over. In the distance, he could vaguely see the eaves and corners of the palace roof.
"How could you not know that you yourself have come back to life?" Luo Gongyuan said suddenly.
His words left Li Jiuzhou completely stunned.
Luo Gongyuan turned the topic to him, seeming to deliberately break the skylight, "You don't belong here."
"Then where do I belong?"
"How did you get here and where are you going, don't you know?"
Li Jiuzhou vaguely remembered that someone had asked him this before, but he couldn't remember who asked it.
Looking at Luo Gongyuan again, he should be over one hundred and thirty years old, but he is still full of energy. It is no wonder that the emperor asked him for the magic of immortality.
Li Jiuzhou couldn't help but admire this legendary god even more.
With a calm expression, Luo Gongyuan gently stroked his beard and said: "What you want is within your heart, you don't have to look elsewhere."
Li Jiuzhou still didn't understand. Could it be that he finally sneaked into the palace to see him just to listen to this?
"If the real person knows, I hope you can tell me."
Luo Gongyuan shook his head: "With your ability, you should know."
It seemed that he was unwilling to say anything, or he didn't know. Li Jiuzhou was a little disappointed, but also a little unconvinced, "Master Su Wen knows the past, present and future, can you make a prediction for me?"
"The secret must not be leaked, but I want to give you a message." Luo Gongyuan looked at him sideways.
"When a true person gives you something to say, you should listen attentively."
Luo Gongyuan looked solemn: "The destiny of heaven cannot be violated."
"Destiny cannot be violated..." Li Jiuzhou lowered his head and murmured to himself. When he raised his head again, Luo Gongyuan had disappeared.
Li Jiuzhou was shocked. Could it be that the legendary hiding technique that Luo Gongyuan was good at was true.
When I was about to look for him again, a voice came from outside the house: "Li Shaoyin, the saint has summoned me."
How did the emperor know that he was here? Could it be that Gao Lishi told him, or maybe it was Yang Yuyao.
He couldn't care less, so he followed the steps of the chamberlain until he reached the emperor's place.
When I entered the door, I saw the emperor sitting in the middle, with two sisters, Yang Yuhuan and Yang Yuyao, on both sides.
Gao Lishi stood behind the emperor, and there were several attendants beside him.
The emperor waved for him to come over, "Li Qing, I didn't expect you to be so impatient. You can't be anxious about cultivating immortals. I guess Master Luo didn't say anything to you."
It turned out that the emperor thought that Li Jiuzhou secretly came to Luo Gongyuan to ask for immortality. Instead of blaming him, he was a little happy: "Hurry up and sit down. It's just meal time. You kid is in good luck today. Bohai has sent puffer fish. You
Let’s have a taste together.”
Li Linfu was indeed extremely powerful, and his son-in-law Yang Qixuan was actually able to eat puffer fish brought from afar with the emperor.
But it was said that they were having a meal, but there was no banquet. Li Jiuzhou couldn't help but feel strange.
Gao Lishi shouted softly: "Let's start."
A row of palace maids lined up on the side, each holding a plate of food in their hands. When they came to the middle, they formed a circle, moved lightly on lotus steps, slowly turned, and used their bodies to form a banquet table.
The emperor did not forget to say to Gao Lishi behind him: "Yang Qing's method is very wonderful."
It turned out that this was the human meat table plate recommended to him by Yang Guozhong.
Gao Lishi smiled slightly: "I just have to choose some palace maids with good physical strength."
"Eat." The emperor took the lead and started eating.
These palace maids hold dishes in their hands and will stop for a moment every time they turn to their eyes. If you don't like the dish, you can signal her to turn around.
If you take one more look at the plate of food in her hand, she will keep waiting for you.
This whole thing was just a one-person carousel. Li Jiuzhou remembered that he had previously laughed at Wan Nanshan, saying that he didn't understand the life of rich people. Now it seems that he doesn't understand either.
He had always heard that puffer fish meat was poisonous, and Li Jiuzhou did not dare to eat a piece of it, but the emperor kept letting him try it.
Seeing him holding the chopsticks, wanting to pick it up but not daring to pick it up, Concubine Yang burst into laughter, turned to the emperor and said, "I guess Li Qing has never seen puffer fish meat before."
The emperor also smiled slightly.
Li Jiuzhou said modestly: "I have indeed never seen it."
The palace maid's hands were sore when she stood in front of Li Jiuzhou. Seeing that her arms were shaking slightly, Li Jiuzhou gently tapped the edge of the plate with his chopsticks, signaling her to turn around.
Yang Yuyao mocked him: "Li Qing doesn't dare to drink wine or eat meat. She is so timid."
There was something in her words, and Li Jiuzhou did not dare to say anything more to her, for fear of being tricked by her in front of the emperor.
"But these dishes are not to Li Qing's taste?" The emperor asked when he saw that he didn't eat much.
"It's my first time to have dinner with a saint, a noble concubine, and Mrs. Guo Guo. It's inevitable that I will be nervous." Li Jiuzhou pretended to wipe his forehead, but in fact there was no sweat.
"Has the prince visited you recently?" The emperor looked at the dishes on the plate and asked casually.
At this time, sweat broke out on Li Jiuzhou's forehead, and Gao Lishi, who was facing him, couldn't help but frown and gave him a look.
"Since that day after discussing the banquet in black clothes, the prince has not approached me. If the saint and the prince have orders, I should obey them."
The emperor just ate the food without looking up at him, "The prince is simple and kind-hearted by nature. Don't take it to heart if he quarrels with you."
Li Jiuzhou said carefully: "I don't dare. The prince has a kind heart and is worth learning from me and other ministers."
"What have you been busy with lately?" the emperor asked again.
Li Jiuzhou was startled, as if he was the protagonist here, and he hurriedly replied: "There have been a lot of things in Jingzhao Mansion recently, and I have been busy with matters in the manor."
The emperor nodded, "Don't be so sneaky next time you enter the palace. I also want to compete with you on my talents."
"How dare you talk about sparring in front of a saint?"
Speaking of talents, the emperor suddenly raised his head and said, "Today there are delicious food and beauties in front of me. Li Qing might as well recite a poem to cheer up."
Yang Yuhuan and Yang Yuyao next to them agreed at the same time: "Okay!"
He was composing poetry again, and Li Jiuzhou's scalp was numb and his head was about to explode.
