He just felt that the girl was destined to be with him, so he just gave her some advice. Moreover, the girl's family background could also provide some help to Wang Changsheng.
The girl's grandfather was now idle at home. He used to be a scholar in Hanlin Academy and also served as the chief examiner of many imperial examinations. His students were all over the world, and almost half of the officials in Dengzhou were his students.
The girl in purple promised that after arriving in Dengzhou, she would try her best to arrange a boat for Wang Changsheng and the other four, so that they could go to Minzhou by boat. In the worst case, she could also get a travel pass for Wang Changsheng, so that he wouldn't have to worry about being interrogated by the government.
It was impossible to travel in the secular world without a travel pass. Once they were interrogated by the bailiffs, without a travel pass, they would be locked up and put in jail. They had been interrogated many times along the way, but they were all dismissed by the bearded man with money.
In the Immortal Cultivation World, there was no such thing as a guide. Immortal Cultivators could freely travel everywhere. However, they had to abide by the rules of the Immortal Cultivation World. These rules were mostly the same. They were mainly for low level cultivators. High level cultivators, no matter where they went, would be treated as guests of honor. The rules were set by the strong for the weak.
In contrast, Wang Changsheng preferred the Cultivation World. Although the Cultivation World was full of deception and intrigue, one's fate was in his own hands. As long as he was strong enough, he didn't have to abide by any rules at all, or even set rules for others.
No matter how much money and power ordinary people had, their fate was in the hands of the imperial court. An imperial edict from the imperial court could decide the life and death of thousands of people. Even the noble emperor of the Song Dynasty was also in the hands of the cultivation families behind the imperial court of the Song Dynasty. Once the cultivation families behind the emperor were displeased, it was only a matter of a word to change the emperor.
… ….
Half a month later.
Seven fast horses galloped, leaving billowing smoke behind, and stopped in front of a huge city.
These people were Wang Changsheng and his group. In order to catch up with the birthday of the girl in purple's grandfather, these days they rushed all the way without stopping, and finally arrived at Dengzhou's Denglai County.
The huge city in front of them was Lai County's capital, Lai City.
"Finally arrived. Young master, tomorrow is my grandfather's birthday. Why don't you stay in my grandfather's mansion for the night? After my grandfather's birthday, you can continue on your journey." The young woman in purple said so, but her eyes inadvertently swept over Wang Changsheng.
"We appreciate Miss Zhao's kindness, but we've already wasted a lot of time. It's really inconvenient for us to stay here any longer. You can transfer this" Longevity Painting "to your grandfather!" After that, the blue-clothed man took out a scroll from his bag and handed it to the purple-clothed woman.
"If you go by land, even if you rush day and night, I'm afraid you may not be able to reach the capital in half a year. Why don't you stay for a day to celebrate my grandfather's birthday? The County Magistrate of County Y is my grandfather's student. If my grandfather gives the order, the County Magistrate may arrange for you to be on the official ship. After all, except for the official ship, other ships are not allowed to sail on the river." The purple-clothed woman rolled her beautiful eyes and suggested.
"Well … Then we'll bother you." Hearing that, the blue-clothed man was a little moved. After looking at Chen Qiusheng's face, he agreed.
If they could celebrate the birthday of a Hanlin Academy scholar, they would be honored. In addition, what the purple-clothed woman said was reasonable. If they went by land, they might really miss the exam. Instead of that, it was better to stay for a day to celebrate the birthday of the purple-clothed woman's grandfather. If the Hanlin Academy scholar gave the order to let the County Magistrate arrange for the four of them to be on the official ship, it couldn't be better.
"Not at all, not at all. Young master, you are willing to stay to celebrate my grandfather's birthday. My grandfather must be very happy when he knows. Young master, please follow me." Hearing that, the purple-clothed woman was happy and smiled sweetly.
After that, the purple-clothed woman spurred her horse and rushed into the city.
Seeing that, Wang Changsheng and others spurred their horses to chase after her.
After a quarter of an hour, the group stopped in front of an inconspicuous house.
"Young master, please wait a moment. I will be back soon." After the purple-clothed woman said that, she quickly walked in.
The guards at the door recognized the purple-clothed woman, so they didn't stop her.
Wang Changsheng dismounted from his horse. After thinking for a while, he released his Divine Sense and swept the house in front of him.
Not long after, Wang Changsheng withdrew his Divine Sense and frowned. There were several cultivators in this house, and one of them had a stronger aura than him.
However, when he thought of the identity of the purple-clothed young woman's grandfather, Wang Changsheng did not find it strange. He had already learned from the purple-clothed young woman that her grandfather was once the Grand Tutor of the Crown Prince and had even taught the current Emperor. With such an important position, it was not strange for him to be accompanied by Foundation Establishment cultivators. He just did not know if these cultivators were sent by the Great Song Dynasty to protect him.
After a quarter of an hour, the purple-clothed woman walked out of the house. Beside her was a white-robed old man with white hair and a ruddy face.
The old man looked to be seventy or eighty years old, and his face was full of scholarly aura.
Wang Changsheng's eyes swept over the white-robed old man and fell on the two men in Confucian robes behind him.
One of the men looked to be in his forties. His facial features were regular, and his face was white without a beard. He was quite dignified. The other man was only in his early twenties. He was tall and handsome.
The middle-aged man was in the late stage of Foundation Establishment, and the tall young man was only in the sixth layer of Qi Refining. Both of them were dressed like scholars. There was a sense of elegance in their gestures.
The purple-clothed woman supported the white-robed old man, walked in front of Wang Changsheng, and explained, "Grandfather, the" Portrait of Longevity "was painted by this young master, and that is Young Master Wang."
"Greetings to Grand Secretary Chen." Seeing the white-robed old man coming, Chen Qiusheng and the other three hurriedly bowed. Their expressions were very respectful. The blue-clothed man and the blue-clothed man were still a little excited.
"Hmm, not bad. You are indeed talented." The white-robed old man glanced at Chen Qiusheng and the other three and praised them. Then his eyes fell on Wang Changsheng. He said with a smile, "Qianqian told me what happened on the road. Thank you, Young Master Wang, for saving us."
Being praised by a Hanlin scholar, Chen Qiusheng and the other three were a little excited. However, they did not quite understand what the white-robed old man said to Wang Changsheng.
"It was nothing," Wang Changsheng said lightly. His eyes inadvertently swept over the tall young man. He did not know why, but he always felt that this person's eyes were not friendly.
"Young master, please come in and talk. I have ordered people to arrange accommodation." The white-robed old man nodded and led Wang Changsheng and the other three into the house.
Chen Qiusheng and the other three followed behind the white-robed old man, and Wang Changsheng walked behind with two men in Confucian robes.
"I'm Qi Haoran of Haoran Academy. May I know which sect you are from?" The middle-aged man frowned and asked with a voice transmission.
Wang Changsheng heard the words, and a flash of surprise quickly flashed in his eyes. He did not expect the two to be from Haoran Academy.
Haoran Academy was one of the top ten righteous sects with a long history. Its disciples all practiced Confucian techniques. They were very particular about entering the secular world. Their disciples often traveled in the secular world.
However, this had nothing to do with Wang Changsheng. He did not intend to tell the two of them his identity, so he replied with a voice transmission,
"I don't belong to any sect. I'm just a casual cultivator. It's just a coincidence that I met Mr. Zhao. I will leave as soon as the birthday ends tomorrow."
"Casual cultivator? I hope Wang Daoyou will not break your promise and leave after the birthday ends tomorrow! "The middle-aged man said with a voice transmission. His tone was very flat, but it was full of unquestionable meaning.
Immediately afterward, the middle-aged man's lips squirmed, and the tall young man on the side showed joy on his face.
Wang Changsheng raised his eyebrows when he heard this. He didn't intend to stay long, but the tone of the middle-aged man's words made him a little uncomfortable.
Although he didn't like the tone of the middle-aged man's words, Wang Changsheng didn't intend to argue with him. To be honest, the name of Haoran Academy might be scrupulous to others, but Wang Changsheng, as a disciple of Taiqing Palace, naturally wouldn't care too much.
After a quarter of an hour, Wang Changsheng followed the white-robed old man to an unusually quiet courtyard.
In front of the courtyard, there were four beautiful maids dressed in green and blue. All of them were about fifteen or sixteen years old. When they saw the white-robed old man walk over, they immediately bowed and said in unison, "Master, you're the master of the palace.
