Chapter 599: The Mountains and Rivers Never Grow Old, the Tang Dynasty Will Prosper Forever
"I'm afraid that only you, Master Huang, can cure my illness, so no matter how expensive your consultation fee is, I will have no choice but to come to you for treatment."
Li Daoxuan reacted immediately and followed what his senior sister said.
Since she likes role-playing, I will just play with her. However, I didn’t expect that she played the hermit Zhuge Qing last time, but this time she played Huang Yaoshi.
The name Huang Yaoshi was given to her by Li Daoxuan when they were in Zhongnan Mountain. Because she liked listening to stories, Li Daoxuan told her the story of The Legend of the Condor Heroes.
The senior sister likes this story very much, but she doesn’t like Guo Jing and Huang Rong. She only likes the free and unrestrained East Evil Huang Yaoshi who is both good and evil.
Taizhen lifted her skirt slightly, revealing a section of her snow-white ankles. Her long legs were lifted together, and the embroidered shoes under her white skirt swayed slightly, showing the owner's inner joy.
"In that case, please come forward and let me feel your pulse."
Li Daoxuan smiled slightly, walked up to sit next to her, and stared at the beautiful face he hadn't seen for a long time.
Her cheeks are as red as fresh litchis, her nose is as smooth as goose fat, her eyebrows and eyes are as picturesque as a painting, and her gaze is full of spirit.
Different from Sister Yu's coldness and the Empress' holiness, Senior Sister's beauty lies in the word "spiritual". It is a kind of spirituality that can break free from all constraints and will not be covered by any dust.
It is like the flowing water in a stream or the fresh breeze in the forest. No matter the hustle and bustle of the world or the noise of cars and horses, it just flows quietly and slowly.
When I'm with her, it seems as if time has slowed down, but it's not boring at all, but rather full of fun.
Taizhen smiled slightly, closed her eyes, put her white jade fingers on Li Daoxuan's wrist, pretending to be concentrating on taking his pulse.
The breeze blew past the window, bringing with it the scent of flowers. The lazy afternoon sun shined on the two of them, but could not reveal any flaws. They looked like a perfect couple.
Cha Cha wrinkled her nose, as if she smelled something sour and stinky.
She looked at this and that, and suddenly felt a little lonely. There were clearly three people here, but why did it seem like she was the only one here?
After an unknown amount of time, Taizhen slowly opened her eyes.
She picked up the teacup and took a sip of tea, then said calmly, "Cha Cha, see you off."
"oh."
Cha Cha answered subconsciously, then raised her little face and asked in confusion: "Master, aren't you going to treat Uncle Master?"
Taizhen sneered and said, "This man is strong and healthy. If you say he is sick, then there is no healthy person in this world."
Li Daoxuan smiled and said, "Master Huang, you are very knowledgeable, but haven't you ever heard of the term heart disease?"
"Tell me, what's wrong with you?"
"Someone very important to me has disappeared. I have been looking for her for a long time, in all the ten provinces and three hundred and sixty states of the Tang Dynasty, but she always hides from me."
"If a relative or friend is missing, you should report it to the police instead of coming here to see a doctor."
Li Daoxuan ignored her words and continued: "The missing person is my senior sister."
Cha Cha blinked and said in surprise: "Master, the person Uncle Master is talking about seems to be you!"
Taizhen glared at her, and then said, "She is just a senior sister. If she is lost, then she is lost. Why bother looking for her?"
“She’s different.”
Li Daoxuan shook his head.
"What's the difference?"
"I think I want her to be more than just my senior sister."
The teacup in Taizhen's hand shook slightly, and a few drops of water splashed out and fell on her long skirt.
The atmosphere suddenly fell into silence.
Until Cha Cha finally reacted, she shouted, pointed at Li Daoxuan and said in shock: "Uncle Master, do you... do you also want to be Master's disciple? Do you want to snatch Master from me?"
Li Daoxuan and Taizhen looked at her at the same time and said in unison: "Shut up!"
Cha Cha shrank her neck and covered her mouth with her little hands, not knowing why these two people suddenly became so fierce.
Taizhen looked at Li Daoxuan, her voice still cold.
"Then do you know why that senior sister is avoiding you?"
"Know."
"Then you still want to find her?"
Li Daoxuan nodded and said very seriously: "Never give up."
Their eyes met, and Li Daoxuan stared into her eyes, which were as clear as autumn water, and never took his eyes away.
In the end, Taizhen lowered her eyes.
Just when a smile flashed in Li Daoxuan's eyes, he heard her voice ringing out.
"The diagnosis is complete. It seems that you are not suffering from a heart disease, but a brain disease. Cha Cha, please get out."
Li Daoxuan wanted to say something else, but Taizhen waved her sleeves and a gentle force came and swept him away.
She looked at him coldly and said, "You are crazy and incomprehensible. I can't cure your brain disease. Please find someone else to help you."
Bang!
The door slammed shut, as if without mercy.
Li Daoxuan opened his mouth, but in the end, nothing came out.
His intuition told him that no matter what he said now, it seemed inappropriate and would not impress his senior sister.
Could it be that Senior Sister is determined not to meet him again?
Li Daoxuan felt a little disappointed, but he was helpless for the moment. No matter how powerful his magic was or how strong his supernatural powers were, when it came to matters between men and women, it felt .
What's more, the senior sister's cultivation is not weaker than his. In fact, judging from the way she just waved her sleeves, she is even better than him.
Cha Cha sent Li Daoxuan out, hesitated for a moment, and said, "Uncle Master, my master is mentally ill, please don't take it to heart."
Li Daoxuan was stunned for a moment, then touched her head and smiled.
"Uncle Master, do you want to have a child with my Master?"
Li Daoxuan suddenly stopped laughing and looked at her in surprise. Could it be that this little tea leaf knew about matters between men and women?
Cha Cha patted her chest and said, "Uncle Master, don't look down on me. I have secretly read Master's collection of books. Some of them even have illustrations. The people in the books often fight naked, and what they say is just as disgusting as what you just said."
Li Daoxuan was shocked. Senior sister... likes to watch this?
The real person never reveals his face.
"Uncle Master, don't worry, Cha Cha will definitely help you!"
The little girl's eyes lit up, as if she had thought of a good idea, and said, "Uncle Master, the Lantern Festival will be in two days . The whole city will be lit up with lanterns. You go to the Jialing River and wait. I will definitely drag Master there!"
Li Daoxuan's heart moved. The whole city was filled with lanterns, floating down the river. This was quite romantic.
He gave Cha Cha a thumbs up, it turned out that the thousand days of raising pigs was not in vain.
Looking back at this simple thatched cottage, Li Daoxuan sighed softly as he thought of his senior sister who had turned him away with an indifferent look on her face.
As expected of our senior sister, she is the reincarnation of the Queen Mother of the West. She is indeed aloof and not so easy to conquer.
…
In the room, Taizhen quickly ran to the bed, kicked off her embroidered shoes and silk stockings, her slender jade-like lotus feet swayed back and forth, and her pretty face was flushed like a plum.
There was no trace of her aloof attitude at all, she looked like a girl with amorous feelings.
"I think I want her to be more than just my senior sister."
"never give up."
When she thought of what her junior brother had just said, her face became even hotter and she felt dizzy, so she simply pulled up the quilt to cover her face.
The graceful body twisted and turned in the quilt like a bug.
How embarrassing!
But...isn't this the same storybook about talented men and beautiful women that she often read? Even what her junior brother said was more touching than those in the storybooks.
After a while, she poked her head out, her hair disheveled, and took out a book from under the pillow.
The book records the story of Zhuge Qing and Li Xuan, as well as the story of Taizhen and Li Daoxuan. She opened the book and started reading the story again from the beginning, a story she had read who knows how many times.
From time to time, suppressed laughter could be heard from inside the bed.
…
Longhushan, back mountain.
Li Shimin looked at the empty thatched cottage and finally confirmed that Taichong was not there. He looked a little lost and let out a long sigh.
"My dear, do you think Taichong really doesn't want to be my imperial teacher anymore?"
He left the back mountain just after the wake period ended , and it was exactly the time when I came to Longhu Mountain. Is all this really just a coincidence?
Yuan Tiangang sighed and said, "Your Majesty, a person like Li Shenxian is just like Jiang Shang in the Zhou Dynasty, Guiguzi in the Warring States Period, and Zhang Liang in the early Han Dynasty. He is a genius gifted by heaven. It is a great fortune to have him as your assistant for a while."
As a Taoist himself, he could understand Li Daoxuan's mentality.
How can someone who can become an immortal give up fame, wealth and power?
Li Shimin frowned. He was still worried about the prophecy: after three generations of the Tang Dynasty, a female ruler would be named King Wu and rule the world.
Is it really impossible to find the heroine, King Wu?
Just then, a little Taoist boy came over. He had handsome features and an attractive aura. He held a piece of paper in his hand. He was not surprised to see the two people but smiled.
"Is your surname Li and your surname Yuan?"
Li Shimin and Yuan Tiangang looked at each other and nodded, "Yes, little Taoist boy, how did you know that?"
This time they came to Longhu Mountain, they did not alarm anyone and were very low-key.
The little Taoist boy smiled and said, "My name is Zhang Weiyang. Before my elder brother left, he said that two people would come to Longhu Mountain to look for him in two days. One of them was named Li and the other was named Yuan. He asked me to give you this piece of paper."
Yuan Tiangang was stunned for a moment, then laughed and said, "I never thought that after a lifetime of fortune-telling, I would end up being what others call a fortune teller."
"Your Majesty, it seems that the Imperial Master has not forgotten you!"
Li Shimin quickly opened the paper, and when he saw the contents clearly, his eyes were slightly shocked.
"Your Majesty, I have met that King Wu and advised him to become a Taoist, but due to lack of affinity, I was unable to fulfill his wish."
"For your Majesty's sake, I have tried my best to stop you. Whether it succeeds or not is up to fate."
"I am now a wandering wanderer, but the three hundred years of the Tang dynasty are still fresh in my mind. The ninety thousand miles of mountains and rivers are flowing eastward. I dare not forget the oaths of the past, and I will let fate take its course in the future. I hope that Your Majesty will not change his original intention, work hard to govern the country, and eventually become a wise ruler."
"The mountains and rivers will never grow old, and the Tang Dynasty will prosper forever."
Li Shimin's hand holding the paper trembled slightly. He felt mixed emotions and understood that Taichong was really determined to retire.
With his abilities, if he doesn't want to come out of seclusion, who in this world can find him?
Thinking about the two people's meeting in the past, their unreserved trust, their preparations for a prosperous era, and their hard work, they were both monarch and subject, and friends.
Now it seemed that even this only friend was about to say goodbye to him.
At this moment, even though he was an emperor and ruled the world, he still felt powerless and lonely.
"My dear, I just remembered that I am already thirty-seven years old."
Li Shimin suddenly sighed and walked to the Baihe Lake. It was said that Taichong would go fishing here every time he came out of seclusion.
The reflection of a middle-aged man emerged in the lake. He had a full beard and a small belly. His once heroic and sharp eyes now looked a little distracted and tired.
Li Shimin, who was in his twenties, has died. Now he is nearly forty years old and has a few white hairs on his head.
"Little Taoist boy, you must be the son of Zhang Tianshi, right? Let me ask you, what does Taichong look like now?"
Little Wei Yang didn't hesitate at all and blurted out: "Big Brother is always like that!"
Li Shimin was shocked. He didn't say anything, but just stood by the lake, lost in thought for a long time.
