[Qing Chuan] I will be the national teacher for Kangxi

After getting rid of the ghosts on his body, and observing how to act like a baby correctly, Qingyang thinks that the prince can leave with a full harvest and empty pockets.

However, the crown prince obviously didn't think so: "Master Qingyang's Taoism is profound, and he can communicate with the gods, which makes me admire. I wish I could have a long talk with the priest tonight, and fall asleep on my feet."

Qingyang: "..."

The prince wants to form a small group and thinks crazy, why is he so persistent, why can't he manage an unbreakable father-son relationship if he is so persistent.

Qingyang decided to hit a straight ball: "But Qingfu Temple does not accept living people, nor does it keep living people overnight."

It's time to give up now!

The prince easily resolved: "Let's have dinner together, I'll treat you."

Qingyang: "..."

…………

It is impossible to go to a restaurant, but you can send the guards to buy some ingredients.

As a daily offering, incense, flowers, lamps, water, and fire should be long on the table for the gods.If it’s a god’s birthday or a more important festival or celebration, more tea, food, treasures, beads, and clothes will be added.

Before the prince came, Qingyang couldn't even afford the daily offerings, but now there is no need to worry, for this reason alone, Qingyang thinks it's okay to let the prince taste the dishes he made.

Fresh celery is picked from the ground, and the roots and leaves are taken after washing.When Qingyang handles celery, he even carefully selects the young leaves and discards the bitter old leaves.Cut into sections and rinse with water. After the oil pan is heated up, add small ingredients to make it fragrant, then add celery, stir-fry and season.

The prince ate a lot of delicacies, but it was the first time he saw how to cook the dishes with his own eyes, and while being dazzled, he saw Qingyang carefully serving the dishes.

On the clean and white plate, the celery is bright and green, and it looks extremely crisp.The young leaves are dotted among them, and the green is so rich that it seems to be able to drip out the color.The snow plate is golden oil, the shades of green are intertwined, and the aroma is transpiring in the white mist, and Oboi next door is crying.

Thinking that he might be able to make some offerings, Aobai followed Wei'er through the wall and talked almost at the same time as Yinrong: "Let me serve it!"

Qingyang shook his head: "No, no, of course it's more sincerity to show my sincerity when I arrange the dishes myself."

Yinreng looked at Qingyang very reservedly: whether the dishes are delicious or not is another matter, he appreciates the thought of carefully selecting even the leaves.

One person and one ghost followed Qingyang step by step, stepped out of the kitchen, walked across the yard, and walked towards...

Yinfeng grabbed Qingyang quickly: "Wait, isn't this the main hall? It's not good to eat in the main hall!"

"??" Qingyang tilted his head in doubt, "Who said to eat it in the main hall, it's an offering to Master Sanqing!"

After waiting for a long time in the kitchen hungry, Yinfeng who was still very satisfied and wanted to appreciate his gratitude: "...??"

Yinfeng: "!!"

Ao Bai who thought he could catch up a little bit: "..."

Yinfeng questioned Aobai's thoughts on his behalf: "What about the lonely one?"

Qingyang: "Hey, didn't you send someone to buy vegetables? I'll do it when I get back."

Yinreng and Obai: "..."

Feelings mean that they don't deserve to eat the vegetables that Qing Yang grows with his own hands, right? ? ?

Probably really out of breath, Yinfeng asked this question unconsciously.But Qingyang was not only not afraid, he even showed a shocked and unbelievable expression on his face: "Didn't you say that this is your treat?!"

Why did he ask him to provide ingredients again? Their vegetable garden is so small that it is worth a few meals.

"..." Yinfeng was instantly stuck.

Aobai watched Yinreng's complexion gradually slowing down, and he looked like he was not ready to attack, and he couldn't help roaring: "Wake up, you are the prince! Where is the domineering in the past? I lost my fist, and I also lost my fist." Have you lost the majesty of the prince?"

…………

Because of the treat he said in a golden mouth, the prince watched Qingyang fry two more vegetarian dishes and sent them to the main hall, so he couldn't say anything, he could only stand alone in the courtyard and blow the air, sulking.

Qingyang put the altar on the altar in front of the statue of Sanqing, arranged it properly, and took a look outside: "Oh, the temple is really rudimentary, and there is not even a stool in the courtyard—so I wronged the prince to stand calmly and calmly." Bar."

While thinking about it, he fetched incense, calmed down his expression, meditated and calmed down, lit the incense and bowed, and inserted the incense into the furnace.After saluting respectfully on the futon, a smile appeared on Qingyang's face again: "Masters, have a taste? Does the taste still suit your taste?"

There was no movement from the god statue that had shown its power just now, Qingyang waited for a while, thinking whether the masters and ancestors would leave now, he saw the white mist steaming from the cigarettes and altar, rising straight up.The incense burnt faster immediately, and within a short while, the altar also cooled down, and Qingyang knew that it was the master who had already enjoyed it.

He didn't leave either, and continued to look cheekily at the statue with Pikapika's shining eyes.

Praise me praise me.

After a moment of silence, a gust of wind blew from the direction of the statue, brushing the curly hair on Qingyang's head. The strength was not light, and Qingyang was pushed back.

It was as if someone was extremely impatient and slightly comfortingly stroking the meowing and coquettish curly cat beside him, and because he didn't know the strength, he accidentally knocked over the curly cat that was too weak for him.

"..." Qingyang covered the top of his head slightly dumbfounded.

In the past, in modern times, he often made offerings to the ancestors, otherwise he could know the taste of the ancestors and do it so skillfully.But there was no time when the ancestors would touch his head when they appeared, did they?So, the young master is not only more vigorous, but also easier to get close to?

—— Fog Grass!Isn't this a great time to hold your thighs tight! !

Qingyang quickly stood up and asked attentively: "How about the vegetarian food? Is it still tasty? Will it be salty? Will it be bland?"

Hmph, of course it won't be salty, nor will it be bland!I just mean to ask, by the way, to strengthen my excellent impression in the hearts of the masters!

Qingyang was thinking complacently, when he saw the cigarette that had been restored to its original shape suddenly turned, pointing to the east and southwest directions successively.

"??" Qingyang couldn't figure it out, but if he thought about it carefully, if it was combined in the direction, then he would refer to Zhen first, then Kun, and the combination of the two would be Fu Gua.

But that doesn't make any sense... Wait, just now I asked about Xiandan. If we look at the direction upside down, first northeast and then due west, the main hexagram is Gen, and the guest hexagram is Dui, then the two become one, no Is it Xian Gua?

Therefore, Shizu pointed to the opposite direction of the Xian hexagram. Doesn't this mean... that the food is too bland!

"..." The curly-haired cat slowly put away its proud curly tail: It never occurred to me that the taste of the young masters is heavier than before...

Hmm... this is quite in line with objective laws...

The prince didn't expect that he would still feel angry after inviting a guest.However, the dishes that Qingyang made with the ingredients that Konoe found were really delicious. Even he who had tasted all the delicacies, couldn't help but ate a full stomach, and at the end he asked inquiringly: "Dao Could it be that this culinary skill was also cultivated by enshrining Sanqing?"

Qingyang nodded and shook his head again: "Su Zhai is right, meat dishes are prepared by serving my master, and my master is tricky."

Although he was answering the prince's question, Qingyang's eyes were always looking at the gate, and he even raised his arms in a gesture of seeing him off.

Prince: "..."

There is no harm without comparison.Why, why can't you give Gu some of your kindness to the teacher?

The prince was very unwilling to make a small group.But in his capacity, he couldn't hold back his face anymore, so he had to leave reluctantly.

On the way Qingyang sent the prince out, he was held by the prince's hand. Yin Yin said that he would come here often in the future, and he must not forget him, and whether they have established a deep friendship after spending this night together. If there is a third party in the future Or, please be sure to sternly reject him.

"..." Qingyang nodded with a smile on the surface, but he thought in his heart: It's fine to come often, just bring money.There is no friendship, only a pure transactional relationship.If there are other princes coming in the future, as long as they bring enough money, the relationship will be strong enough...

As the prince of a country, Yinfeng can't stay outside for a long time at will.Aside from his old troubles, and with Qingyang's (false) guarantee, the prince only stayed in Qinhuai for one night before returning to the palace.

Before leaving, he specially sent someone to come early in the morning to deliver the key to the mansion mentioned before: "Master Dao, this is specially sent by His Royal Highness, please keep it for emergencies."

Qingyang really didn't want it before, but what happened last night that the master broke the tablet of the five spirits.Qingyang thought about it, and it was not good to break his promise to the five senior brothers, but he didn't agree with his ancestor's intention to worship in the temple. In this dilemma, this empty house came very timely.

Qingyang has observed it, and the master's distraction is not always in the observation, only when it is enshrined.Taking advantage of this gap, he can sneak away to the empty house when the master is distracted and leaves the Taoist temple, put up the tablets for the senior brothers, and make offerings...

Just do it, Qingyang carefully confirmed that the master's distraction had left the statue, quickly rolled up the prepared materials, and rushed to the empty house.

…………

The mansion where the prince can live temporarily, even if it is only for one night, the conditions are absolutely unsatisfactory.

Qingyang wandered around the mansion, his eyes straightened.

This house is on the bank of the Qinhuai River where every inch of land is precious. There are five courtyards and about twenty rooms.It doesn't matter if the place is big, and the decorations are all luxurious. If you hold a vase inside and resell it, you can make a fortune. Even the pillar corners and eaves are carved with pure gold patterns.

However, all this fell into Qingyang's eyes: ... I'm going to die, I'm going to die! !Such a large site, so many hollowed-out decorations, woohoo, I just got rid of the modern concept of Qingfu, why the heavy burden of life is pressed back on my thin shoulders!

Alas, it's really not possible, the sanitation here has to be cleaned by Aobai every day.

After thinking of a solution, happiness returned to Qingyang's face.Looking at the time, Qingyang quickly picked a room, cleaned it carefully, found a location facing north and south, facing the gate, moved the altar table that had been vacant in the house, and began to prepare the memorial tablet, as well as the items for inviting gods and offerings.

Having done the work countless times, Qingyang is naturally familiar with it. An hour later, the roof of the house glows with a hazy light, which is not so obvious in broad daylight, but before Qingyang's eyes, there are suddenly five familiar and Strange figure.

Zhang Yuanbo looked at the surrounding furnishings suspiciously: "This is not a Taoist temple, where did you get the money to buy such a house?"

"The house was lent to me by a believer I helped!" Qingyang greeted the brothers, "Incense and offerings are all available, but do you need some paper money?"

"Hmph!" Zhao Gongming had already circled around the mansion, his eyes were full of joy at the superior environment, and at the same time, he was unhappy that Qingyang was not in the Taoist temple, but he was enshrining himself in someone else's mansion.

"Am I the kind of person who lacks money?... Give me food. Please explain to me clearly, since you can receive believers, then the Qingfu Temple must have been completely repaired, why don't you enshrine me in the temple, but Go to the house that the believers lent you to worship?!"

As early as when he was recruited by Qingyang, Zhao Gongming had taken a fancy to the ability of this little Taoist priest. Being enshrined by him, he must be much better than those mages with mixed fish and eyes today.

Otherwise, he wouldn't have followed me to Qingfuguan at the beginning, but he would have been hit one after another. At the beginning, the conditions of Qingfuguan were too poor, and it was too miserable to bear to see. Now that the conditions of Qingfuguan are better, he is not qualified to be invited Into the gate?Only fit to be worshiped outside?Is that what you mean? ?

The rich man Liu Yuanda from the West who is working hard to pray: "..."

He slowly stopped enjoying the offering, and a trace of confusion gradually appeared on his chubby and kind face.

... Was it his illusion?How did this matter pass from brother Zhao's mouth? It sounded like a member who secretly bought a house outside to raise a mistress, and was questioned by the mistress why he couldn't carry a big sedan chair and marry into the house in a serious manner? ?

In the next second, Zhao Gongming said angrily from the side: "...What do you think of us!! Is it a secret room outside the staff? What kind of talk is this doing!"

"..." Qingyang couldn't help recalling last night that the tablet was just cracked at the beginning, and was crushed into powder in the end, sweating guiltyly, thinking, isn't that right, isn't it because he secretly made offerings to other gods outside!

Zhao Gongming: "It's too disrespectful. We are not people who pick places too much. Now that the Qingfu temple has been repaired, you quickly welcome us back to the temple to enshrine!"

Qingyang: "..."

Come on...you come, you are either joining this family, or you are here to destroy this family...

Qingyang talked about it, saying that there are not enough offerings in the temple now, and when the conditions are better in the future, he will welcome the five Linggongs into the temple.After exhausting his tongue, Qingyang appeased Zhao Gongming, who was clearly disgusted with Qingfu Temple before, but now insisted on going to Qingfu Temple.

Leaving the outer room... the mansion of the outer god, Qingyang couldn't help wiping off his cold sweat, thinking that he should get on good terms with his master later, so that he could try to mention whether he could enshrine Lord Wuling in the temple Son.

While thinking, Qingyang returned to the narrow alley.

He has other arrangements besides nourishing his gods today.Qingyang took the copper coins and broken silver that had been exchanged on the road, and according to Zhang Mingde's memory, each family returned the money cheated by Zhang Mingde, and added two cents of interest.

For those who have owed for many years, they took the initiative to add a third of the interest, and paid off all of them without paying any money.

No one living in the narrow alleys has an easy life. Zhang Mingde's cheating in the past may have been just to make some money for him to spend on himself, but for a family, it may have made the already embarrassing situation worse. .

The boss of the Li family was stunned when the door was knocked open and four pieces of broken silver were stuffed into his hands.

To be honest, when Zhang Mingde was not in good shape, he never thought that Zhang Mingde would pay him back.Later, Zhang Mingde changed his name and became promising. He was in awe of the majesty of the gods, and he didn't dare to ask Zhang Mingde—or the current Taoist Master Qingyang for it.

But the money came back to him just like that.And there is an extra interest of a whole piece of broken silver.

He stood at the door, opened his mouth again and again, and it took him a while to say: "Daoist Qingyang!"

"Huh?" Qingyang was about to leave, "Is there a mistake in the amount?"

The boss of the Li family quickly shook his head. Qingyang's move completely made him feel at ease, and said with great respect: "You also know that my children usually love to watch and play outside of you, and so do the other children in the alley. Seeing that they are usually noisy, they are very obedient when they come to you, I wonder if we adults can let the children learn from you when we adults go out to work?"

"..." Qingyang froze.

Why are you here again, someone who wants to destroy this family.

Moreover, what to learn from him, to learn to be a Taoist priest?

Qingyang began to retreat: "I'm sorry, Brother Li, we don't accept living people."

…………

Paying back the money was just a small episode. Since Qingyang had money on hand, besides buying offerings and relying on offerings, such as ever-burning lamps, treasure covers, etc., of course he also wanted to make a magic weapon for himself.

The Sanqing bell he used in the consecration ceremony before was just bought temporarily. Without his blessing, it would not have had such a great effect.If he wanted to use it smoothly, he naturally had to make a decent magic weapon for himself, preferably small and small, usually hung on his belt and ready for use at any time.

For this, Qingyang specially ran all over the Qinhuai market, and didn't return to Guanli until the afternoon.

As soon as he entered the door, he bumped into Oboi who was flying towards him and deliberately blocked him.

Aobai crossed his arms and folded his chest, raised his head and looked at his eyes, with an extremely haughty attitude: "I know!"

"What do you know, eh? Why didn't you clean the corner of the incense burner? Are you lazy?" Qingyang walked around Oboi with the materials in his hands, and inadvertently looked at the large incense burner in the center of the courtyard, and couldn't help pointing out, "You should use this piece You have to wipe it with a dry rag, otherwise how can it be shiny?"

"..." You must be sick! !He has wiped clean enough!He is Oboi, not a maidservant! !Aobai almost died of anger, barely held back, continued to maintain an unfathomable posture, and continued the topic just now, "I know you secretly went out to raise other gods!"

Aobai finally said what he wanted to say, with an arrogant attitude, he swooped in front of Qingyang for a while, and he came over with a big face, full of complacency: "I found out! Tell you, if you don't hurry up Give me back my freedom, and give me a dojo for hundreds of days after I leave, I will tell Sanqing about this!!"

Aobai's complacent attitude is no different from that of a servant girl who finds out that the master is stealing a concubine and threatens to give money or sue his wife.

"..." Qingyang and Aobai looked at each other for a moment, then slowly put down the materials in their hands.

why?Why does someone always want to destroy this home?

Qingyang felt that he was tired of trying to maintain the harmony of this family. He had to face not only external troubles, but also internal troubles.

Thinking about it, Qingyang raised his hand expressionlessly, and grabbed the worrying beard: "Such a restless maid, let's just keep her mouth shut."

Obai who was being dragged by his beard and pressed down with a hammer: "????"

What the hell are you talking about? !
