Only when the prince's hunting team passed did Li Mao re-arrange the carriage and horses, and then he spoke significantly less.

Yang Yun could detect some clues.

With Li Mao's current age, Wu Huifei could not hide his intention to be the crown prince. He must have said a lot in his ears that he wanted to depose the crown prince.

But with Li Mao's weak character and no desire to fight, he felt very distressed.

On one hand, it was my mother's earnest teachings, and on the other hand, it was brotherhood, which made it difficult for him to choose.

It is not easy to depose the prince, which means that he must change his casual and peaceful, virtuous and obedient character, and show his strong and brave side to dominate the world... Turning a sheep into a wolf, tiger and leopard is a deed.

Following the official road on the south bank of Luoshui, the team moved forward all the way.

There are no mountains on both sides of the strait, and the forests have been basically cut down. Farms and courtyards can be seen everywhere. Luoyang is surrounded by places where wealthy families buy land, and there are quite a few official houses along the way.

Yang Yuhuan was very excited, but at this time Li Mao was worried and unintentional to talk, so he simply asked: "Your Highness, what fun is there in the east of the city?"

Li Mao came to his senses and smiled reluctantly: "There are many famous scenic spots in the east of Luoyang City, the most famous one is the White Horse Temple... But the road to White Horse Temple is a little farther. We are going to Wan'an Temple. I think Princess Xianyi has been waiting for a long time... Oh, it's almost here."

...

...

After the car drove out of the city for more than ten miles, he finally arrived at his destination.

Wan'an Temple is a royal Taoist temple, not a place for ordinary people to seek the Tao and pray for blessings. It is built on the banks of Luo River, and you can see the beautiful scenery of Luo River. However, in early spring, there are not many boats on the water and the environment is relatively cold.

Outside Wan'an Temple, there are little Taoist priests cleaning.

After climbing more than a hundred steps, I arrived at the main entrance of the Taoist temple. A plaque with the name of the Taoist temple was hung on the lintel. More than a dozen guards guarded here, obviously they were brought by Princess Xianyi.

"Do you want to report to Your Highness when you go in?"

The guard commander came over to salute Li Mao, then looked at Yang Yun and Yang Yuhuan, and asked for instructions hesitantly.

According to his idea, since Li Mao brought outsiders, he should go in and inform him first to avoid making mistakes.

Li Mao waved his hand casually and said, "Master Yang and Miss Yang, Xianyi has known each other for a long time. This time I took Master Yang to meet the real person... I can take them into the sight by myself."

Li Mao called him "real person" and acted very casually. Only relatives could be so kind. Yang Yun thought to himself: "Is it Princess Yuzhen?"

Without asking much, Yang Yun followed Li Mao into Wan'an Temple with Yang Yuhuan.

Opposite the gate was a three-story pavilion. A little Taoist priest came to lead the way. When he entered, there was a female official on duty. When he saw Li Mao, he saluted respectfully, but he remained silent, afraid of disturbing the tranquility of the wooden building.

There is no stairs going up this building, but it actually passes through a suspended wooden ladder.

When he arrived at the wooden staircase, Li Mao pointed to the upstairs and whispered to Yang Yun: "Today I want to see Master Yang, who is also a cultivator. She is easy-going, you don't have to be restrained... Miss Yang, I will help you up."

Yang Yuhuan looked up at the straight wooden ladder, hesitating a little. It was obvious that it was a bit indecent for her to climb a wooden ladder, and the wooden ladder went straight up and down, and she was afraid of falling from it.

"Why might your highness go up first and help the little girl?" Yang Yuhuan asked with a wink.

After a sudden use of the charm technique, Li Mao was fascinated by the fact that he nodded honestly and climbed up the stairs first. Then Yang Yuhuan also went up the stairs. After Yang Yun fell, if there was any deviation, someone would support him.

Finally, with Li Maoxiang helping him, Yang Yuhuan went up to the second floor, and Yang Yun followed him up.

...

...

On the second floor of the auditorium, there are many bookshelves, which display various scriptures. The white paper-paste windows are closed and the light is dim. Walking on them in broad daylight is like walking around a maze.

"Is it suitable for you?"

Li Mao didn't know the specific location of Princess Xianyi, so he shouted.

Soon, a woman's voice came from one side: "Is Shibalang here?"

The weight of a middle-aged woman is not as crisp and pleasant as Princess Xianyi. Then she appears a quiet Taoist nun, about thirty years old, wearing a Taoist robe and a blue crown and hat, generous and decent.

Yang Yunguan has a good face, not as elegant and luxurious as the noble ladies of this era, and is very thin. It seems that the meals are very simple and meat is rarely seen.

He was able to call King Shou "Zebalang" directly, obviously Li Mao's elder.

"The Emperor."

Li Mao was very happy to see the Taoist nun. He smiled and did not salute, just like seeing a child who was acting coquettishly from his closest relatives.

"Look at whom I brought you? This is Taoist Master Yang, a master Wu Zun, who is Yang Yun, who successfully restores the Taoist statue in Dakong Temple and is praised by his father as the Little Heavenly Master."

"Um."

The Taoist nun nodded, her eyes fell on Yang Yun, and she looked at him carefully.

Yang Yun went over to salute: "My younger generation, Yang Yun, have seen the supreme real person."

Princess Yuzhen's magic name is Supreme True Man. In name, she took over Princess Jinxian as the presidency in Kaiyuan Temple in Luoyang. But in fact, as long as it is a royal Taoist temple, she can go there at will, and she is also the master of this kind of Taoist temple.

"I have heard of you for a long time. Being able to come forward for the Lord, resolve the persecution of the world, and use what you have learned to use for the right path is the supreme good deed of practicing the Tao... It seems that your teacher is also an outlier."

Princess Yuzhen has a modest attitude and has many praises to Yang Yun in her words.

"I am ashamed of being a real person, I am afraid of taking it." Yang Yun said respectfully.

"who is she?"

Princess Yuzhen turned her head, then lowered her face, and looked at the charming Yang Yuhuan with her vigilant eyes.

"She is Taoist Yang's sister and is a cultivator."

Li Mao smiled and introduced.

Yang Yuhuan pledged to Ting: "My younger generation, Qinglian, have seen a real person."

"Qinglian? Who are you worshipping?"

Princess Yuzhen looked at Yang Yuhuan with no friendly eyes, but was very alert.

Yang Yuhuan's beauty is too aggressive and thrilling, and ordinary men cannot resist it at all. This is a great enemy for Taoist sects that focus on cultivating the mind.

Yang Yuhuan replied honestly: "My teacher is called Huixian, and he has taught the Dharma in Luoyang for many years."

Princess Yuzhen obviously had never heard Huixian's Taoist chant. Li Mao next to her smiled and introduced: "Ms. Yang and Taoist Yang are not from the same school. She worship a female cultivator. She usually doesn't ask about magic or talismans."

"After entering the Taoist sect, we should take it as our responsibility to educate the people and calm disasters and evil. We should not be happy with things or sad with ourselves, and we should not be addicted to the flow of the world."

Princess Yuzhen looked at Yang Yuhuan's clothes. She couldn't attack a person's birth appearance, so she taught Yang Yuhuan a lesson in dressing too gorgeously and not in line with the humble and restrained style of a cultivator.

Yang Yuhuan lowered her head and pretended to be taught.

Li Mao explained to Yang Yuhuan: "Ms. Yang was invited to visit her nephew. She didn't expect to go out of the city to play, and she didn't expect to come to Taoist temples. So she dressed a little more grandly, so why bother being too rigid?"

Princess Yuzhen gave her nephew a blank look. She probably learned from Princess Xianyi that he liked Yang Yuhuan. She waved her hand and said, "Xianyi talked about you earlier. Kaiyuan Temple has not been arranged yet. She is drinking tea inside. Come with me."

...

...

After Princess Yuzhen talked about the major passage, she led a few people to the elegant room on the same floor.

It is said to be an elegant room, but it is just a compartment by the window, with a table and a floor mat. On the table, there are candles like beans and scriptures. It should be the place where Princess Yuzhen meditates and meditates on the Tao.

Princess Xianyi sat there like a wooden man. Even though Li Mao and his party came over, they didn't look up. It seemed to be enlightened, but it was more like they were dozing off with their eyes closed.

"Xianyi, why don't you go out to greet me?"

When Li Mao saw Princess Xianyi was there, he went into the elegant room and asked.

Princess Xianyi remained silent.

Princess Yuzhen looked serious: "Don't bother her, she is enlightened. If she is distracted, wouldn't she fail?"

While speaking, Princess Yuzhen walked to the bookshelf on the side to get the book. Princess Xianyi walked away slightly after hearing the footsteps, opened her eyes playfully, and made a face to Li Mao and Yang Yun who were sitting down. Before Princess Yuzhen turned around and came back, she closed her eyes and sat upright.

Where are you enlightening?

It was clearly under the pressure of elders to deal with the matter.

In the eyes of Princess Yuzhen, enlightenment seems to be sparse and ordinary. She can understand the Tao through meditation. However, for those who have never worshipped the Taoist sect, enlightenment means closing your eyes and wandering outside the sky. She hasn't even read a few volumes of the Taoist sutras. What mystery can she understand?

Princess Yuzhen walked in front of the table with two volumes of Taoist scriptures, knelt down, and said, "Since you are here, let's read two volumes of Taoist scriptures first and understand the mystery of Taoism together."

Li Mao heard this and stepped back: "Grandpa, you know that I was stupid since childhood and knew nothing about Taoist scriptures. It is impossible for me to make any progress by reading a few volumes of Taoist scriptures like you... It's still smart. Even my father said that she was as smart as you were when you were young."

"read!"

Princess Yuzhen raised her face and said, Li Mao could only pick up the scriptures honestly, open them and read them.

Then Princess Yuzhen handed over scriptures to Yang Yun and Yang Yuhuan, meaning that as long as they come, they would be treated equally and no one could spare.

Yang Yun took the book handed over by Princess Yuzhen. It was written by Gengsangzi, a famous Taoist figure in the Warring States Period. This book was also the Taoist classic "Dongling True Sutra". It has three volumes in total. This book in Yang Yun's hand is the first volume.

Books are hand-made manuscripts. Although woodblock printing technology is circulated within a certain range in this era, both royal and noble families have treasured their own treasures. The classics are mostly copied and distributed by related households. The quality of the paper is not good, and the handwriting is mottled. Many characters cannot be distinguished because of their age.

It is not easy for Yang Yun to read such books that do not even have punctuation and are obscure.

When he had just looked through two pages, he felt extremely overwhelmed. Princess Xianyi suddenly opened her eyes and said, "I have already understood it."

Princess Yuzhen had already picked up the book to read it, frowned when she heard it, and looked at Princess Xianyi: "What have you realized?"

"Well..."

Princess Xianyi was stunned for a moment, then closed her eyes, pinched her fingers as if she was looking at it, but she was still speechless... She thought she could be let go if she had some understanding, but this teacher was very serious and insisted that she tell her that she was ugly.

Yang Yun looked over and saw that Princess Xianyi was reading the Taoist scriptures the same as him, and it was also "Kang Sangzi", but it was just another volume.

The entire book "Kang Sangzi" adheres to Lao Tzu's Taoist purpose and is divided into nine chapters: "The Complete Tao", "Use Tao", "Political Tao", "The King's Way", "The Master's Way", "The Virtue", "The Tao of Wisdom", "The Tao of Training", "The Tao of Agricultural", and "The Way of War". It demonstrates the Taoist concept of self-cultivation and self-cultivation in detail. It extends the way of governing the family and country with Lao Tzu's concept. Because of its detailed annotation of the classics, it was regarded as one of the four Taoist scriptures in later generations.

It is too difficult to let a young girl who is only fifteen years old understand the truth.
