Chapter 165 Brothers sit opposite each other

When Xiang Qingniu returned to the Taoist temple, the sky had already darkened. The rain had not fallen after holding it for a long time. The thick dark clouds in the sky were pressing very low. It seemed that when you looked up, you could see the dragon god rolling in the clouds. There was no wind, so the weather seemed extremely stuffy. When Xiang Qingniu came back, the black Taoist robe seemed to be fished out of the water, and it could drip water with one twist.

Qiu Yu secretly found him, but he did not tell the sacrificial master Xiao Zhenren. He knew the temper of the old bull very well. In the eyes of that old guy, the people of the Daozong must not interfere in the affairs of the court. They can passively accept His Majesty's assignment, but they must not take the initiative to cause trouble.

If Zhenren Xiao knew about it, Xiang Qingniu was sure that he would be confined to the Taoist temple.

This Taoist temple was built during the reign of Emperor Taizong, and its year was much longer than the Yiqi Temple in Qingleshan. But Your Majesty pointed out that Yiqi Temple was the holy land of the Taoist sect in the world. Even if this Taoist temple is of great age, it is still a little kid. Therefore, after the Taoists of Yiqi Temple in Qingleshan moved in, the disciples of this temple were as low-key as they were.

The master of this Taoist temple is Taoist Master Baisen, who is about 60 years old. He is a very humble person and has always regarded himself as a disciple in front of Zhenren Xiao. Therefore, he is naturally a generation shorter in front of Xiang Qingniu. You must know that Xiang Qingniu is the only junior brother of Zhenren Xiao. When he is playing tricks, Zhenren Xiao also wants to give in to him.

Moreover, their master once said that the great responsibility of Daozong Xinglong was finally carried on Xiang Qingniu's shoulders. He was the most talented among the four disciples, and even more talented than the most amazing second disciple. However, no one can say the thing about talent. Although the master said this more than once, the four brothers and brothers still had the lowest cultivation level in Xiang Qingniu many years later.

The eldest senior brother Xiao Yijiu is now the leader of the Dao Sect, and his status in the world is unmatched. The third senior brother is in the palace and his status is very transcendent. The second senior brother... The second senior brother is an alien, and God knows where he is now.

When he pushed open the door and entered the room, Xiang Qingniu began to take off his clothes. This Taoist robe is indeed a bit majestic, but in this weather, he couldn't stand the heat. He froze when he was halfway through, and looked at the person sitting by the table drinking tea in the room and suddenly turned pale.

"You...why are you here?"

The man sitting at the table drinking tea was wearing a brocade dress and said while drinking tea: "Even if I have left the sect, I am still your third senior brother. When you see me, don't you even feel rude?"

"I'm rude to you."

Xiang Qingniu threw the Taoist robe aside, took off the shirt inside. Soaked the towel in the basin, twisted it and began to wipe the sweat from his body. As he moved, the white fat body began to tremble up and down. Especially the two balls of meat on his chest, even the 28-year-old woman could not compare.

"You entered my room without saying hello. Am I rude or are you rude? Don't think that you can just be a senior brother. I haven't grabbed the beard of that old guy who can pretend to be even more capable of doing it."

He glanced at the man and asked while wiping his body, "The big hero in front of His Majesty, the commander of the Great Inspector of the Great Inspectorate, you will naturally not come to me if you have no problem with your identity, right? If you have something to do, you will say it quickly. It's time to eat, and I don't plan to keep you."

This man turned out to be Luo Weiran, the commander of the Great Inner Guards!

Luo Weiran drank all the herbal tea in the cup, got up and walked to the door, looked outside, and closed the door.

"Are you planning to do something without hiding it from your senior brother?"

Luo Weiran asked in a low voice.

"yes!"

Xiang Qingniu said seriously: "I just borrowed fifty taels of silver from the Taoist temple account and planned to go to the brothel tonight. Since you know, let's do your best to have the friendship of the landlords. Tonight I plan to ask for ten or eight innocent people to open the flowers. Fifty taels of silver must be not enough. You can give the rest?"

Luo Weiran gave him a blank look and said, "You can see through your ignorance when you say it. You can't make ten or eight brothels in Chang'an City without tens of thousands of taels of silver? Fifty taels... Do you think you are called a sow with ten or eight? Besides, your body is fat... Not to mention ten, two can also break your waist... By the way, you don't have a waist, right?"

Xiang Qingniu said angrily: "If you have something to do, say something to make a lot of money, get out of here if you have nothing to do."

"You can't take them away tomorrow morning!"

Luo Weiran said abruptly, and Xiang Qingniu's face instantly became extremely ugly.

"What did you say?"

He asked with his lips pursed, but the movements on his hands were already stiff.

"I am the commander of the Great Nei Guards. As long as I want to know, few people can hide it in Chang'an City. Professor Qiu, the cultivation of Yanwu Academy, is indeed good, but if I had no secret support, could she bring out the things? Can she see you? Can you still run to Fang Jie's shop and wait for the big dogs and the others? If you really think so, then you are really an idiot."

For a moment, Xiang Qingniu didn't feel hot.

My heart is cold, very cold.

He looked at the third senior brother whom he was no longer familiar with, and his eyes were full of alertness.

...

...

"Since you know, I won't pretend to be stupid anymore."

Xiang Qingniu changed his clothes, sat down in front of Luo Weiran and said seriously: "I must do this. I will not ask what Xiao Fang made any mistakes, but he and I are friends, and his friend is my friend. Since that's the case, I can't ignore what my friend asks. If you really plan to stop me, then the brotherly relationship between us will be broken from now on."

"fart!"

Luo Weiran glared at him and said, "When did you ever treat me as your senior brother?"

"Since you know that Fang Jie is now locked in the secret prison of the Great Neiwei Department, you should understand that he has committed a lot of things. Your Majesty is always staring at this matter, and no one can think of getting him out of the prison. Not to mention him, even his friends. The staff outside the Sanjin Hou Mansion has far more people than you think. It is difficult for them to slip away without realizing it! If you are not my junior brother, I wouldn't bother to remind you. Now Fang Jie can't touch anyone, and anyone who touches it will violate Your Majesty!"

"I don't care about this!"

Xiang Qingniu said tit-for-tat: "You know that I have been so tough since I was a child. No one would persuade me to listen to what I have decided. Not to mention you, even the second senior brother is the same. I must save people. You can do it yourself whether to stop me or not. At worst, I will take off my Taoist robe and run away. The sky is so big that there is no place for Mr. Xiang to see him? If it really doesn't work, I will go all over the world to find the second senior brother."

"Let this go beforehand."

Luo Weiran said: "I know where the second senior brother is."

“Where?!”

Hearing this sentence, Xiang Qingniu stood up suddenly and looked directly into Luo Weiran's eyes and asked anxiously.

"Sit down and listen to me."

Luo Weiran pointed to the chair, poured a cup of herbal tea and handed it to Xiang Qingniu: "I can tell you, but you must make sure not to be impulsive. The whereabouts of the second senior brother are still absolutely confidential now, and there are no extrapolations except for a few people. I am already at risk, don't cause trouble for me."

"Second Brother, since you put on the official skin of the court, it has become more and more despised."

Xiang Qingniu drank the herbal tea in one go: "Hurry up and say it!"

“In the prairie”

"prairie?"

Xiang Qingniu was stunned, and then his face changed: "He actually went to Mengyuan alone to trouble those bald donkeys? Damn, I didn't take such a good thing with me! No, I have to leave now. If I go too late, wouldn't the bald donkeys be killed by him and not left for me?"

"Sit down for me!"

Luo Weiran grabbed Xiang Qingniu and looked at him and said coldly: "I know you respect your second senior brother the most. You don't even listen to your master's words but listen to him. We are four brothers, and you have the best relationship with your second senior brother. But do you know your second senior brother? Do you know who he is?"

Xiang Qingniu said for granted: "He is my second senior brother Xiang Qingzheng!"

"That's right, he is your second senior brother Xiang Qingzheng, and my second senior brother Xiang Qingzheng... But he still has an identity and has never told you."

"What else is the identity?"

"He is Prince Zhong of the Great Sui Dynasty, and the seventh brother of His Majesty. He used the name Xiang Qingzheng when he was practicing in the sect, but his real name was Yang Qi. If he had not found me eleven years ago and asked me to protect His Majesty for him, I wouldn't have known that he was actually a royal family! He was the prince! And he was the younger brother whom His Majesty trusted and valued the most!"

Hearing these words, Xiang Qingniu was a little lost. He glanced at Luo Weiran, was silent for a while and smiled bitterly, "What are you doing for making up this story?"

“This is not a story.”

Luo Weiran said seriously: "Your second senior brother Xiang Qingzheng, whom you respect the most, is actually the person you don't know the least. He has many things you don't know, such as going to the prairie... This is the second time. If you want to save Fang Jie's friend, I must explain the matter of the second senior brother to you clearly before stopping you. When you understand the truth, maybe I don't have to stop you, and you will no longer think about saving them."

He paused, looked at Xiang Qingniu's eyes and said, "You know that I left the sect and went to Chang'an eleven years ago. After putting on my official uniform, I never left this majestic city again. You have always said that I am vain and stinking and ugly. I have never explained to you. Eleven years ago, I suddenly left the sect and became the guard beside His Majesty because of the second senior brother."

"Eleventh year ago, the second senior brother left Chang'an alone and traveled west. He first returned to the sect to find me and asked me to go to Chang'an to stay by His Majesty's side. He said that the eldest senior brother has other important tasks and cannot be separated. He knows too well your character, so he can only leave this matter to me. After hearing him, I did not hesitate to do it immediately. Because he is not only the second senior brother you respect, but also the second senior brother I respect. I follow everything he says."

Luo Weiran sighed and said, "What I regret most is that I didn't ask him what he was doing. It was not until he started killing on the grassland that I realized what kind of burden I took from the shoulders of my second senior brother. I wore the flying fish robe for eleven years, but I am still your third senior brother. Everyone said that I am Your Majesty's loyal dog, and I am just following the instructions of my second senior brother."

"Why did he go to the prairie eleven years ago?"

Xiang Qingniu asked after being stunned for a long time.

"Of course I'm going to kill people."

Luo Weiran said: "At that time, Your Majesty first ascended the great treasure, and the country's foundation was unstable. The Mongol Yuan mobilized experts to try to sneak into the Sui Dynasty to assassinate His Majesty. The general Li Yuanshan, who was guarding the northwest, discovered the news and quickly sent people to Chang'an. After learning about this, the second senior brother immediately stood up and headed west. He summoned the masters from the Jianghu along the way, and fought with the people of the Mongol Yuan in the Fangu area northwest of the Great Sui Dynasty, and slaughtered all the masters of the Mongol Yuan. But the second senior brother did not come back, but continued to go west and go straight to the Great Snow Mountain."

He paused for a moment and said in a daze: "I have never come back since then. It was not until... I learned about Chang'an that I learned about my second senior brother again."

"What does this have to do with Fangjie?"

Xiang Qingniu asked.

"Maybe... Fang Jie can really be considered the successor of the second senior brother?"

Luo Weiran shook his head, his eyes confused.
