Kyoto, Changsheng Temple.
Changsheng Temple is located on a hillside in the west city. It was originally called Taixuan Temple. It is said that it was the place where a certain immortal worshipped by the emperor of the previous dynasty made elixirs.
However, with the change of dynasties, the Taixuan Temple, which was once crowded with people, has long since declined and has become deserted.
Now it is just an ordinary Taoist temple, with more than a dozen rooms in front and back, and only a dozen people living there, which looks very cold.
However, anyone with some status in this Tiandu knows that the person living in this temple now is not ordinary. He is the current prince's teacher, the youngest Tianwei strongman, and Pei Min from the Hedong Pei family.
After Pei Xuanjing entered Kyoto, he met the prince several times. This prince is indeed as rumored, with a gentle personality and friendly attitude. The two can talk.
In this Kyoto, both the prince and the old pillar country have prepared a residence for Pei Min, but he refused them and chose to live in this deserted Taoist temple.
Pei Xuanjing named the Wanduan magic weapon given by the prince Changsheng, so this Taoist temple was renamed Changsheng Temple, which corresponds to the Changsheng Temple that Pei Xuanjing first built in the Ming Dynasty.
During this period, Pei Xuanjing's life was very leisurely. In addition to teaching the prince swordsmanship every ten days, he spent the rest of his time at his own disposal, almost returning to the time when he practiced alone in Changsheng Temple.
Of course, such an outstanding figure as Pei Xuanjing entering Kyoto would naturally arouse the curiosity of many people. I don't know how many people handed in visiting cards, but they were all rejected by him one by one.
If it were an ordinary genius, facing these dignitaries in Kyoto, even if he refused, it would cause dissatisfaction among many people.
But Pei Xuanjing was completely different. As a strong man, he had his own privileges. Even if he refused the invitations of these people, there were still many people who wanted to visit him.
"This supervisor of the Imperial Observatory is really patient!" Pei Xuanjing thought to himself.
You should know that the news of his action in Yunzhong Grassland was soon known by the supervisor. If it weren't for the other party spreading the news, perhaps the news of Pei Xuanjing's actions on the grassland would not have spread so quickly.
Moreover, when Guo Yi, the captain of the Black Cloud Cavalry, met him, he said that the other party invited him to come to Kyoto and wanted to see him.
But now that he has arrived in Kyoto, the other party has been silent and there is no movement at all, which makes Pei Xuanjing very confused.
However, although he is confused, Pei Xuanjing is not anxious.
Since he has come to Tiandu, he will naturally have the opportunity to meet the other party. It's nothing more than waiting for some time.
Moreover, during this period of time in Kyoto, Pei Xuanjing has also learned a lot about the situation in Kyoto.
Now, in addition to the supervisor of the Imperial Observatory, the two strongest people in Kyoto are a master of Taoism.
This Taoist master is not only highly skilled, but also a master of alchemy. He is favored by the emperor and has always been his royal alchemist.
And there is also some news that is passed privately, that is, the current emperor of the empire, who is praised as wise as the previous emperor, seems to have gone wrong in his cultivation and needs elixirs to regulate.
It is precisely because of this that the emperor does not care about many political affairs of the empire at all, and most things are handled by the queen.
Her Royal Highness the Queen is originally an extraordinary person. When the emperor is ill, the queen's power in the court has increased greatly, and she has many followers, which has caused dissatisfaction among many clans.
Some people even suggested that His Majesty should go to a holy place to recuperate, and the prince should stay in Kyoto to supervise the country and handle government affairs.
It can be said that Kyoto looks peaceful at the moment, but in fact, undercurrents are surging, and swords are flashing.
"The competition is getting closer, I wonder who Dali will send this time?" Pei Xuanjing smiled.
The time for the Kyoto competition is gradually approaching. According to the news received by Pei Xuanjing, Dali still sent people.
Although Pei Xuanjing was not suitable to participate in this Kyoto competition, there was no doubt that he would definitely attend.
He was a little curious, who would Dali send this time?
And in his opinion, this Kyoto competition was a good opportunity, and some people might want to take this opportunity to test it.
"But what does this have to do with me?" Pei Xuanjing sneered. At this moment, he had the qualifications to sit on the mountain and watch the tiger fight. As long as he was unwilling to leave, no one would dare to pull him, a strong man of the heavenly position, to leave easily.
It would be fine to watch the show, but if someone really set their sights on him, then don't blame me for overturning the table.
Pei Xuanjing thought so.
Time passed quickly, and more than a month passed in the blink of an eye.
One evening, after Pei Xuanjing taught the prince swordsmanship and agreed to attend the Kyoto competition, he took a car back to Changsheng Temple.
But just as he was about to arrive, someone suddenly appeared and stopped his carriage.
A middle-aged man in a black robe stood in the middle of the street with his back to them, blocking their way.
"Who are you, you daring lunatic, to block the carriage of the prince's mansion?"
Seeing the carriage being stopped, the driver shouted sternly.
As the so-called seventh-rank official in front of the prime minister, the prince's driver also has a considerable status. And being able to drive the prince means that he is also trusted by the prince.
In addition, he is also a strong man who has cultivated to the third level of the martial arts realm. Whether in the army or in the martial arts world, he can be called a local figure.
This man was originally a master in the martial arts world. He only joined the prince's army because of his humble origin and lack of a way to break through the heavenly rank.
"Hmph!" The middle-aged man snorted coldly, and a domineering aura came over him.
A powerful person in the heavenly rank!
The driver who was just scolding him was shocked and his face turned pale.
Although he had not yet made a move, the terrifying aura pressed down on him, making him unable to breathe.
"Hehe."
With a light laugh, the intimidating aura disappeared silently, like a spring breeze blowing on his face, and the driver no longer felt oppressed.
"Thank you, young master!" He hurriedly thanked Pei Xuanjing in the car.
He knew that if it were not for the young master in the car to make a move, he would not have any power to fight back against the powerful person in front of him.
Pei Xuanjing said lightly: "It doesn't matter, this person is looking for me!"
There is no doubt that the person in front of him was coming for him, and the driver was just caught in the crossfire!
"Young Master Min!" The middle-aged man who was blocking the road suddenly shouted and attacked.
The momentum of the explosion was almost earth-shaking!
His loud voice sounded like thunder in the long street, causing countless long winds to whistle, and even the cool breeze at night turned into a biting cold wind.
Thanks to the book friend Tai Xiao Daojun for the reward.
