The Song Dynasty was the king for thirteen years before he knew that he was Tianlong.

Chapter 135: High in the sky, millions of miles away

"To the Liao Kingdom?" Huang Shang was stunned: "Your Highness is going to lead the delegation north?"

Zhao Ti nodded: "I will go there soon. You should be ready. I will ask the emperor for permission. You have just arrived in the capital. Have you settled down?"

Huang Shang said, "Thank you for your concern, Your Highness. I have already sent someone to rent a house in advance."

Zhao Ti groaned for a few breaths and said, "Little Invincible."

A clear voice came from the opposite car: "Yes, yes!"

Zhao Ti said: "Get out of the car and come here."

Little Huang Mo climbed out of the carriage, jumped off the car, and then glanced at Huang Shang.

Huang Shang said: "Your Highness, this..."

Zhao Ti pointed to his own carriage and said, "Don't recite the book for now. Come to my house and have some fun. I'll prepare a banquet at Gaoyang Zhengdian to welcome you tonight."

Huang Shang watched Xiao Huang Mo happily get into Zhao Ti's carriage, the corners of his mouth twitched, and he saluted again: "Thank you, Your Highness."

The next day, Zhao Ti went to the military prison and entered the palace in the evening.

No valuable information was obtained from the three Liao spies, and they did not confess under torture.

Zhao Ti planned to hand it over to the Privy Council. After all, although the Privy Council's Speed ​​Office was not good at investigating spies, their torture instruments were incomparable to those of the cavalry and infantry prisons. There were many kinds of torture, and they were better at interrogating spies than the military prisons.

Zhao Xu agreed, and then Zhao Ti talked about Huang Shang. Huang Shang was now a scholar in the Duanming Palace, and his specific assignment had not yet been given. Zhao Ti proposed that Huang Shang should accompany him on the mission, and Zhao Xu nodded in agreement.

A few days later, Zhao Ti returned home with everyone after an autumn outing. Tong Guan reported that Prince Duan had sent an invitation.

When Zhao Ti opened it, he found that it was Zhao Ji who was preparing to hold the Baiyun Dharma Assembly and had invited the masters of Taoist temples in the capital area and famous Taoists to attend to discuss scriptures and spiritual practice.

After reading the invitation, he asked Tong Guan beside him: "How many temples are there in the capital?"

Tong Guan thought for a moment and said, "Your Highness, there may be dozens of them, right?"

"It's lively there, it's okay to go and take a look." Zhao Ti nodded: "Go tell Master Huang to come with me to the Taoist meeting in three days."

Three days passed in a blink of an eye. Huang Shang came to the palace with a look of joy. He was a devout Taoist and his poems were full of Taoist words. Their meanings were mysterious and difficult to understand for those who did not know Taoism.

Then he went out and headed straight for Prince Duan's Mansion.

At this time, the Prince Duan's Mansion was bustling with people. The carriages in front of the mansion were parked far away, but most of them were pulled by green mules or donkeys. Although many of the masters of the various temples had received imperial decrees, it was not convenient for them to drive the carriages. After all, there were legal restrictions on the specifications of carriages.

The leader of the soldiers at the gate saw Zhao Ti coming and hurried down the stairs, bowed and smiled, saying, "I will lead the way for the king."

Zhao Ti glanced at him. He was the one who deliberately fell down last time. He had seen him several times before. "You are quite clever."

The soldier flattered him, "Your Majesty, I am too humble to honor you. I only respect Your Majesty from the bottom of my heart, and I don't feel the same way about other guests."

Zhao Ti smiled and walked into the mansion. After a while, he came to a huge open space. It was decorated like a fairyland. There were hundreds of tables lined up on both sides. All the people sitting there were wearing Taoist robes of various colors. There were many people with white hair and youthful faces, and some of them looked sanctimonious.

Looking at the table again, there are all kinds of colorful snacks and seasonal fruits. Now it is autumn, and there is a good harvest in various places. All the good things are sent to the capital. In particular, there are several large peaches on each table, red and white, which makes people salivate.

Zhao Ti stroked his chin and smiled, "So they really plan to hold a Peach Banquet."

Zhao Ji hurried over to greet him when he saw him arrive. He took his arm and whispered, "My dear brother, I've heard these days that spies have been found in many prefectures. Are you sure there are no more here?" Zhao Ti looked at the Jurchens who were flitting around like butterflies and shook his head, "It's hard to say. You've registered in both Liao and Xixia. Your name is on the table of both countries' leaders. Both sides are always thinking about you. Although the Liao spies have been eliminated now, who knows if there are still spies sent by Xixia? Xixia is more brutal than Khitan."

Zhao Ji was shocked when he heard this: "My dear, do you have any in your house?"

Zhao Ti smiled and said, "There aren't many people in my house. Even if Yelu Hongji and Liang Sizhao want to plot against me, they won't find a chance."

Zhao Ji nodded like a little chicken pecking at rice: "Myna is right, but I have to be careful, be careful..."

Huang Shang was then introduced. Zhao Ji was very enthusiastic when he heard that the other party was a great believer in Taoism. At this time, Lin Lingsu also came over and bowed his head to greet him.

Zhao Ji said: "My dear brother, this time Taoist Lingsu wants to establish a new sect. I will help him to spread the Dharma and also occupy a position in the sect."

Zhao Ti smiled and said, "Are you very knowledgeable about Taoist scriptures and Taoist methods? What kind of identity do you want to occupy?"

Zhao Ji said: "Myna is not unfamiliar with me. In addition to calligraphy and painting, I also like Taoism and have studied it. Taoist Lingsu's Shenxiao theory is quite to my liking, so... I will take the position of the leader."

Zhao Ti asked, "The leader of the Shenxiao sect, right?"

Zhao Ji said proudly: "That's right. When I succeed in my practice, I might even become the leader of Taoism in the world."

Zhao Ti smiled slightly, and Zhao Ji hurriedly invited him to sit in the front, with Huang Shang accompanying him.

The Jurchen women came over to serve at this time. The aroma was fragrant, the voices were soft and gentle, and the sight was so beautiful that it was like heaven.

A moment later the Taoist meeting began. Lin Lingsu first discussed the method of Shenxiao. He started with "Lingbao Wuliangshishangpin Miaojing" and expounded the way of Shenxiao. Among them were the Taoist theories of the three sects of talismans. He said that in ancient times there were nine heavens and nine levels in the sky, and the highest level was Shenxiao. The so-called high Shenxiao was a million years away from the earth!

After he finished speaking, some of the people from the Taoist temples sitting on both sides agreed with him, while others raised questions and began to explain with Taoist words. For a moment, the atmosphere in the field was very graceful, with various magical instruments adding to the fun, and the sound of sandalwood curling in the air and celestial music floating in the air.

Zhao Ti leaned back in his chair, ate a big peach, and looked at Huang Shang. Huang Shang was listening attentively, with a thoughtful look on her face...

Jiangnan, Suzhou, Taihu Lake.

A small boat was sailing in the water without any oars, as if being pulled by the breeze, heading towards Mantuo Villa.

Standing at the bow was a middle-aged scholar in a blue shirt, with dragon-like eyebrows and phoenix-like eyes, a handsome face and a thin beard. He was motionless and seemed to have merged into the water and sky in a trance.

If someone saw this place at this moment, they would only see the small boat at first glance. If they did not look carefully, they would almost overlook the fact that there was a scholar on the bow. Although the scholar was on the boat, he seemed absent, so people would inadvertently overlook him.

The boat moved forward steadily, and Mantuo Villa gradually came into sight.

Li Qingluo was sitting in the study at the moment, looking at the secret book in her hand with a dazed look on her face. This was a sword manual from Chixia Island in the East China Sea. There were too many martial arts in the Langhuan Jade Cave, and she had never practiced this book before. However, she had been reading it for seven or eight days in a row, but she still didn't understand many of the meanings of this secret book.

She frowned. Xiao Wuxiang Gong was too difficult for her to learn. These martial arts that were not as good as Xiao Wuxiang Gong were so difficult for her to practice.

Just then, the wooden door of the study suddenly opened to both sides. She was startled and looked up.

Then a middle-aged scholar in a blue shirt appeared outside a few feet away, and then he seemed to have changed his position and arrived in front of the door without any big movement.

Then, it was so fast that she couldn't understand it, and she entered the study hall.

The next moment, the scribe was standing in front of her.
