Xiao Beichen and Yun Xuanyuan stood up and saluted, saying in unison: "Greetings to Uncle Master Hong and Uncle Master Fang Tian."

Taoist Hong's eyes flashed with surprise, and he blurted out, "The emperor is so humble?"

Even though he and Taoist Yun were practitioners of the same generation, he felt it was not appropriate to put on airs when he knew the emperor had arrived. His attitude was that he hurried over to exchange a few words of greeting.

did not expect……

Taoist Fang Tian was also surprised, but he did not express his doubts immediately like Taoist Hong did.

Xiao Beichen cupped his hands and smiled gently: "I am Yun Xuanchen from Qingfeng Temple, the third disciple of Master."

After he said this, Taoist Master Hong and Taoist Master Fang Tian understood that there were only disciples of Qingfeng Temple here, but no emperor.

They had spoken out of turn just now, but with so many people crowded in the side hall, of course they had some speculations and there was no need to hide anything.

The conversation between Taoist Master Hong and Xiao Beichen immediately made the eyes of all the Taoists from various sects who had been curiously watching and guessing light up.

Everyone in the Taoist community in the world knows that the current emperor is a Taoist from Qingfeng Temple.

But the emperor is the emperor. He usually doesn't come out of the palace to see them. Now they have the opportunity to greet them, and they feel very honored.

"I pay my respects to His Majesty!"

It seemed as if all thoughts in my heart were inexplicably integrated at this moment, and I shouted out this sentence suddenly, and it was surprisingly neat.

"There is no need to be so polite, fellow Taoists. Just call me Taoist Xuanchen." Xiao Beichen smiled and bowed, without any imperial airs.

The other Taoists were also very happy when they saw this. Not only did they get to meet the emperor, but he was also a Taoist who only talked about Taoist relationships and did not show off his imperial power.

It’s their honor!

"Hello, Senior Brother Xuanchen!"

"Meet Uncle Xuanchen!"

"Meet Uncle Master Xuanchen!"

"..." Everyone was delighted but then came to their senses and hurriedly greeted each other according to their seniority in each palace. As for those who were disciples and grandchildren, they had no chance to squeeze into this side hall at all.

They all follow the Zhengyi Tianshi Dao, which respects the Three Pure Ones and has been passed down from generation to generation. Many different temples can be linked to fellow disciples from the grandmaster onwards.

The most obvious example is that the Yunshang Temple here and the Yunfeng Temple in the north both originated from the Qingfeng Temple in the east.

There is also the Taixuan Temple in the southwest, which originated from the Xuantian Temple in the south.

Therefore, before the event even started, it had already become a family reunion event for Taoist priests from temples and palaces all over the country.

Even those wandering Taoists who were not in the palaces or practitioners with family traditions, all enthusiastically recognized the mountain gate and discussed the inheritance of the founder of the sect...

Now, facing an imperial Taoist priest like Xiao Beichen, he naturally established a relationship with him without hesitation.

The scene became lively again, and Xiao Beichen patiently exchanged a few words with the Taoists.

After Yun Xuanyuan invited Taoist Master Hong and Taoist Master Fang Tian to take a seat, he took the tea brought by the little Taoist boy and served it to them personally, then sat aside to watch the fun.

With the imperial aura of his third senior brother, he, the commander of the imperial guards, was forgotten, and he was too lazy to step forward to seek a sense of existence.

Taoist Master Yun ignored his disciples and only reminisced with Taoist Master Hong and Taoist Master Fang Tian, ​​talking about many things that had happened in the past few years, including the snow disaster in the north and the demon disaster in the west.

Cangyun Temple also contributed a lot of manpower and materials to the snowstorm in the north. Without the help of Cangyun Temple, the demon disaster after the snowstorm could not be brought under control so quickly.

With the southwest battlefield in front and the evil disaster behind, there are also many crises.

In addition to Qingfeng Temple and Qinglong Guard, there were of course also Taoists from Taixuan Temple in the southwest who actively went out to slay demons and exorcise monsters. Later, Xuantian Temple also sent a number of red robes to supplement the combat power.

They were all very busy and were only able to get together in Beijing recently. They were all filled with emotion when they talked about it.

After a cup of tea, Taoist Master Yun invited Taoist Master Hong and Taoist Master Fang Tian to the quiet room for a chat.

Because of their seniority, everyone could only watch them leave. Xiao Beichen and Yun Xuanyuan hurriedly followed them. Taoist Yizhen stopped the others who wanted to follow.

Taoist Yizhen said amiably, "My fellow Taoists, the grand ceremony has not yet begun, and there are still many opportunities to meet my great master and uncles."

Everyone thought about it and it made sense. Today, the emperor came to Yunshang Temple as a Taoist. Could it be that he just came to show his face?

of course not.

They already knew that this time, the Luotian Grand Ceremony and the Putian Grand Ceremony on the three altars would be presided over by the emperor, who would lead all civil and military officials and nobles to participate in order to ensure the stability of the country and peace in the world.

Having witnessed many Taoist ceremonies, they said that they had never seen such a grand ceremony, and that a ceremony presided over by an emperor was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.

Knowing that they would have many more opportunities to see the emperor in the future, the Taoists happily left the side hall.

At this time, in the quiet room in the back mountain, Taoist Yizhen had already made arrangements for receiving guests, and there was a little Taoist boy guarding there.

Taoist Master Hong and Taoist Master Fang Tian have been at Yunshang Temple for a few days, but this is their first time stepping into the forbidden area at the back mountain. They can't help but sigh as they walk on the stone steps.

"I have heard about the beauty of peach blossoms in the back mountain, but no one invited me to appreciate it. It is only you, Master Yun, who came to fulfill my wish."

Taoist Master Hong spoke in a subtle way, but with a hint of complaint in his voice, but it was not directed at Yunshang Temple, but at Taoist Master Yun.

Taoist Yun felt a little embarrassed and explained with a smile.

"There's nothing to be forbidden in this back mountain. It's just that they set up a few formations here two years ago. They didn't want anyone to be able to set foot here without any intention of causing trouble, so they turned it into a forbidden area."

"The mountain gate with forbidden areas also seems to have a lot of background, and it is still a bit mysterious in the eyes of outsiders."

Taoist Master Hong glanced at Taoist Master Yun with disdain, not knowing what to say in response to his explanation.

Taoist Fang Tian, ​​who was walking behind them, rolled his eyes and turned to look at Xiao Beichen and Yun Xuanyuan behind him.

"Xuanchen, Xuanyuan, how come you have time to come here? Are you not going to take care of state affairs?"

It would be better to chat with the two nephews behind than to listen to the gossip of the two old men in front.

Xiao Beichen smiled and said, "Last year, I let the crown prince govern the country. I can have more time to practice. Otherwise, my realm will be unstable, which is not good for my practice."

Taoist Fang Tian suddenly realized and said with a smile: "No wonder your realm seems to have improved a lot. Three years ago, you were just an early stage Heavenly Master."

Xiao Beichen smiled and said, isn’t that right?

As they were talking, they arrived at the quiet room at the entrance of the peach forest in the back mountain. Taoist Master Yun stood outside the quiet room, glanced in the direction of the peach forest, and said with a smile: "Old Nine, Eleven, Twelve, Xiao Tang'er, come and pay your respects to your uncle."

The joyful laughter deep in the peach blossoms quieted for a moment, and then Yun Tang's surprised voice came: "Master is here!"

The conversation was just two ordinary sentences, but it could be heard from far away, even in most of the back mountain.

After hearing Yuntang's response, Taoist Yun walked into the quiet room with a smile and invited the guest to take a seat.

Taoist Master Hong is older than Taoist Master Yun and sits opposite Taoist Master Yun.

Taoist Fang Tian sat below Taoist Hong, and below Taoist Yun were Xiao Beichen and Yun Xuanyuan.

The little Taoist boy served tea and placed some snacks and preserved fruits on the tea table.

"You are only two years younger than me, but how come you look at least ten years younger than me?" Taoist Hong suddenly spoke.
