Chapter 260: The Hidden Power of the Heavenly Master's Mansion (Two-in-One Chapter)

Chapter 260: The Hidden Power of the Heavenly Master's Mansion (Two-in-One Chapter)
While wandering through the vast mountains and rivers of Zhongzhou, Lei Jun constantly recalled the relevant scriptures he had read.
Having heard Xu Yuanzhen mention the Central Plains in that exotic land in Dahaishan "Gateway," Lei Jun became interested and conducted extensive research on relevant documentary records.
Others have arrived in the territory of Zhongzhou for on-site investigation and verification.
The topography and geomorphology are generally similar between the two sides.
A few differences are also within the scope of understanding.
After all, in this world, apart from the automatic changes in mountains and rivers, mountains can also be moved and rivers can be diverted due to battles between high-level cultivators.
However, there are significant differences in the flow direction of geothermal aura.
It's like two identical outward terrains, but different worlds inside.
In a moment, Lei Jun couldn't help but recall various settings he had seen in some novels, and many conjectures appeared in his mind.
After a long time, looking at the beautiful scenery in front of him, Lei Jun let out a sigh, reining in his wandering thoughts, and turned to leave.
He headed south all the way, crossed the river, and went to Kuanglu Mountain.
In the depths of Mount Kuanglu, there are several hidden paradises and secret realms that were once the exclusive domain of the Lin Clan from Jiangzhou. However, they are now under the control of the Celestial Masters' Mansion.
The abundant resources from these paradises and secret realms are transported to the ancestral home of Mount Longhu.
Here, the Tian Shi Fu also has disciples stationed separately.
Due to the consecutive great calamities suffered previously, although the Tian Shi Fu is gradually recovering its vitality, the number of people is still small.
Nowadays, almost all disciples who have been passed down the lineage have more or less tasks to handle.
Over at Mount Kuanglu, where Master Lei Jun is familiar with, a disciple from Tian Shi Fu is in charge of the duty of guarding the Lunar Blessing Land.
A young Taoist priest dressed in deep red robes, accompanied by several disciples dressed in apricot robes, as well as a group of gray-robed Taoist disciples and messengers, respectfully welcomed Lei Jun, who was dressed in purple robes.
"Brother Luo." Lei Jun smiled and returned the greeting.
The red-robed Taoist in front of him is Luo Haoran.
"Elder Lei, please come this way."
In front of other fellow disciples or younger generations, Luo Haoran pays more attention to etiquette.
After they were alone, Luo Haoran casually asked, "What do you need for this trip to the Moon Harvest Land?"
Lei Jun is already a senior elder with high skills. Except for a few resources that need to be reported to the Celestial Master, he can freely allocate and use the rest of the resources in the sect.
What are the normal produces at Langyue Fudi? After returning to Tianshi Mansion, please make a list and send a token to Luo Haoran, and he will catch the medicine according to the instructions.
"Do you have the convenience to occupy Lingxing Spring for a period of time?" Lei Jun asked.
Luo Haoran: "Let me take some spring water back to Mount Longhu first, to settle this month's bill in advance, and you can take as long as you like for the rest."
He smiled and said, "With you here, I can leave this blessed place and take a stroll on the riverbank of the Great River."
Lei Jun: "It seems that the water level of the river is relatively calm this summer."
Luo Haoran: "That's right, it is calmer than previous years, but we will have to wait and see in July and August. If there is a flood at that time, I will definitely need your help."
Lei Jun: "This is naturally not a problem."
"I'm just being cautious just in case." Luo Haoran sighed: "Starting a few years ago, the water level of the river has actually been slowing down. This year, it is particularly obvious. It's good that there is no major flooding, as it means fewer disasters for the people."
Lei Jun nodded silently.
Not only Luo Haoran, but also Lei Jun noticed the changes in the water current of the Great River.
Both Lei Jun and Luo Haoran have some speculations about the reasons behind it.
In the past few years, there have been significant changes in the mountains, rivers, and landforms.
Overall, it seems that there is not much change.
But a few key nodes are continuously disrupted.
First, the Xia family outside Long was severely hit.
The Xia family outside Long is slightly better off, although it has suffered heavy losses, the cultural context has not been completely interrupted.
The Bodhi Temple was indeed reduced to ruins, forcing the remaining disciples to establish the Southern Sect Mountain Gate elsewhere.
Last winter the situation escalated dramatically.
The ancestral lands of the two great families of Nanbei Erlin were both confiscated.
Triggered a chain reaction that was initially confined to a specific area.
But as time went on, it continued to affect the circulation of the land's energy.
Although the imperial court of the Tang Dynasty still maintained control over the dragon veins' auspicious energy, they also had to adapt to the changes of the times.
The move of the capital that year originated from here.
In recent years, the changes in the earth's veins and water veins have become more and more significant.
That's why the current river's water flow is relatively calm.
And this summer, there have been even more unexpected events.
Zezhou Gaojia and other places are not mentioned.
The Pure Yang Palace's mountain gate has been breached, and the ancestral land of the Ye family in Jinzhou has been completely devastated.
Next, it will certainly have an impact on the flow of earth veins.
As for specific changes, they will not become apparent until later.
Luo Haoran is pleased to see that the current river is no longer overflowing and bursting its banks.
But such things are hard to come by.
Because it is difficult to know in advance what kind of events will bring about what kind of changes in the earth's veins.
It may backfire, and there is also a possibility, which is not small.
This is a true natural disaster, and human effort can only resist and bear it, difficult to control.
After the two senior brothers chatted for a while, Luo Haoran left to make arrangements.
On the second day, Lei Jun followed him to the deep area of the Lanyue Fudi and arrived at the Lingxing Quan.
They saw the water in the spring swirling with lights and dust, resembling countless stars, filled with spirituality.
After Luo Haoran left, Lei Jun immediately jumped into the water.
Lingxing Spring automatically spreads around his body.
Lei Jun's finger points in the air.
The water of Lingxing Spring at this moment seems to transform into a scroll of paper, flying upside down in mid-air, and then unfurling.
Lei Jun sat still.
The picture formed by the spring water is interlaced with dots of light, forming words.
In the depths of Lei Jun's eyes, the brilliant Buddhist scriptures shine brightly.
As such, the words continue to appear and write, as if engraved on the paper made by the spring water.
Every word is a combination of Lei Jundao's magical powers and the calligraphy of the Ye family in Jinzhou. It is recreated with slight differences from Taoist talismans, but at the same time, it possesses the exquisite aspects of both Taoism and Confucianism.
The more words I write, the more they become.
The paper transformed by the spring water also spreads wider and wider.
In the end, it accumulates and binds into the shape of a book.
Everything comes to an end, and in front of Lei Jun, there are thick and heavy volumes.
Under the illumination of the Heavenly Penetrating Scripture by Lei Juntian, these books gradually condensed again.
Until they became as thin as a single sheet of paper.
This piece of paper transformed into a flowing light and flew into the Heavenly Penetrating Scripture in Lei Juntian's left eye.
"It has taken shape to some extent, but it still needs further exploration and improvement," Lei Jun nodded with satisfaction.
He looked at the Lingxing Spring in front of him and couldn't help shaking his head slightly.
Because his current mana was running too fast and persistently, over time, this eye spring was actually drained by him.
Fortunately, the spring did not really dry up, and the water was slowly emerging, with the speed gradually increasing.
As long as you rest for a while, Lingxing Spring will restore its old appearance.
Lei Jun, who was sitting cross-legged, stood up and bowed to the Lingquan in front of him with a Taoist salute.
Then, Lei Jun, who was about to leave, suddenly stopped.
He fixed his gaze and noticed that after the spring pool had temporarily dried up, there were ink characters appearing on the rocks of the spring.
"Oh? Has someone previously left a message here?" Lei Jun became interested.
The handwriting is not left by practitioners of the Dao, but by Confucian cultivators.
It can be seen that the person who left the handwriting has an extraordinary cultivation level.
However, as the handwriting is left in the spring water, the person remains hidden and the spiritual energy of the spring water conceals it, so it was not known before.
Until today, due to special reasons, Lei Jun temporarily discontinued the spring water, and these writings finally reappeared.
The ink characters have no offensive power, and Lei Jun casually collects them with his magical power.
After reading it, he couldn't help but slightly raise his eyebrows.
Words automatically gather together into a volume.
It is named "Essays by the Mountain Man of Jiuxi".
The Mountain Man of Jiuxi is the title of Lin Jian, the patriarch of the Lin clan in Jiangzhou.
以辈分算，林涧是林彻、林宇维等人的叔祖。
从林震、林朗、林晴算，是他们的太叔祖。
八重天境界的林族大儒，此前因为年事已高，故而避世隐居静养。
Compared with the Tian Shi Temple in Longhu Mountain, these people are of the same generation as the first Tian Shi, Li Zhiyuan.
Among those who went into seclusion with Lin Jian, in addition to the three elders of the Lin family from the Seven Heavens, there is also another great Confucian scholar from the Lin family who reached the Eighth Heaven, named Lin Zhan. He is the seventeenth uncle of Lin Che, Lin Yuwei, and others.
However, in this battle of Jiangzhou, only three seventh-heaven elders of the Lin clan appeared, and Lin Jian and Lin Zhan have been missing.
According to the survivors of the Lin clan in the Southern Sect, it is said that Great Uncle and Seventeenth Uncle mysteriously left the ancestral land of the Lin clan in Jiangzhou in their early years and their whereabouts are unknown.
This matter is also a mystery within the southern Lin tribe, especially today when their ancestral land is destroyed, it is even more distressing.
Now, regardless of Lin Zhan, Lei Jun knows some of Lin Jian's situation.
This Lin ethnic elder not only has become old, but also because of some old injuries, his lifespan has been shortened, making it difficult to reach the age of 800.
He no longer hopes to prolong his life, but only wishes to cure his old illnesses and regain the age of 800.
Therefore, Lin Jian has been inspecting repeatedly.
But this inspection seems to have unexpected incidents.
Lin Jian's notes stopped abruptly halfway through.
Perhaps this is also the reason he lost contact and didn't have time to inform his fellow clansmen.
Summarize the information from the previous few pages of Lin Jian's notes and combine it with the spirituality of these notes, and Lei Jun deduces some pointers related to the spiritual meridians.
"One goes east, the other goes west. The east seems to be heading toward overseas, and the west seems to be mountains and rivers in the Yuanzhou area further west in Yuzhang...." Lei Jun's clarity and understanding enables him to perceive the mysteries that ordinary people cannot comprehend, but the information is still vague.
At this moment, a ball of light suddenly flashed in his mind, and words appeared:
【Inside there is a spiritual mountain with jade water, outside the sea there is a solitary island reaching the sky, good and bad intertwined, a difference of one thought.】
【Middle-top fortune stick: Travel to Longxi in Yuanzhou, there is a chance to obtain a third-level opportunity, currently no danger, but future karma entanglement, handle with caution, good fortune.】
[Middle-middle lot, avoiding Longxi and Changjie Island, there is no additional gain or loss, even.]
[Middle-lower lot, heading to Changjie Island in the East China Sea, no additional gains, and extremely dangerous with serious consequences. Prudence and caution are necessary, ominous.]
Lei Jun couldn't help but raise his eyebrows at the sight.
………………
The Nan sect and Lin tribe barely found a foothold north of Taihu Lake.
Initially, the situation was still good.
The ancestral land of Jiangzhou was breached, and the Lin tribe suffered significant losses in population, so they could not demand more.
But now, Lin Yuwei and others are extremely embarrassed.
Many details of the Battle of Jinzhou have now been made public.
Ye Moyuan's secretly entrusted the Nan Zonglin family to refine the Danxin Broken Sacrifice, which has encountered problems.
The magical instrument itself is nothing special, but the news has obviously leaked out, so Xu Yuanzhen was not only prepared, but also ready to "return the favor," resulting in Ye Moquan having a face full of blossoming peach flowers.
The Southern Lin Clan had a failure this time, not only in that matter but also in that matter.
The Jinzhou Ye Clan needs to keep a low profile at the moment and has not said a word.
But the Southern Lin Clan is currently located right in front of the Suzhou Chu Clan's door.
To the north, there is the Ye clan in Qingzhou.
On certain matters, they are not united with the Ye clan in Jinzhou.
But if it is determined that the Southern Lin clan has allied with the imperial family of the Tang Dynasty, Qingzhou and Suzhou will certainly not tolerate it.
Just as Lin Yuwei and others were waxed, a clansman suddenly reported, "There is news of Taishu ancestor!"
Lin Yuwei and others immediately became spirited.
Regardless, Lin Jian's cultivation at the eighth level of the Heaven Realm is crucial for the current Southern Lin Clan. Even if it meant dividing the power of Lin Yuwei, they now need to stick together more than ever.
Unfortunately, the news did not actually come from Lin Jian.
Instead, it was a calligraphy left behind by him that suddenly changed for some reason.
"Pointing towards the East Sea..." Lin Yuwei and the remaining three elders of the Lin clan looked at each other in disbelief.
They tried to contact Lin Jian, but there was still no response.
Lin Yuwei, as silent as a statue, decisively said after a while, "Jin Song and I will go out to sea together. You guys have worked hard on land."
Next to him, Lin Jinsong, a seventh-level Confucian scholar of the Southern Lin Clan, nodded solemnly and agreed.
In fact, he was more inclined to join the Tang Dynasty imperial family.
Although he would lose the foundation of his family for generations, he believed in overcoming current difficulties before considering the long-term.
However, Qingzhou and Suzhou are keeping a close watch, and the people in the clan have different thoughts. Lin Jinsong has some ideas, but he doesn't rush to propose them at the moment.
Although other members of the Lin clan are hesitant, they can only agree with Lin Yuwei's judgment for now.
……………………
In Zhongzhou Luoyang.
Inside the Imperial Palace of the Great Tang.
The empress is seated on the throne, and the court officials enter to pay their respects.
"Let them approach," Empress Zhang Wantong calmly instructs.
There are four individuals here for the audience: Zhang, Shangguan, Xiao, and Lu.
After thanking the four of them, the queen said, "I will depart for Guanzhong, and I will entrust Luoyang to you. Mo Feng'er will act as regent, assisted by the officials. You may handle the ordinary state affairs yourselves, and report major matters to Guanzhong."
Mofeng'er is the childhood name of her nephew, Prince Zhang Hui.
Minister Shangguan Qing softly advised, "I still earnestly request Your Majesty to think twice, and if not absolutely necessary, do not leave Central City for an extended period of time."
女皇淡定：“关中，朕是要走一趟的，时间再说。”
上官庆低首：“是，陛下。”
这位当朝侍中虽身材高大，但身体相对单薄，气质儒雅，乃是上官一族中少有地修持儒家法门且有成就者。
在上官身旁另一个中年男子，虽然因为觐见而没有着甲，更收敛气血，但分明武道强者无疑。
此君姓卢，名震，乃大唐神策军中宿将，目前仅次于大将军上官云博的二号人物。
卢氏亦是大唐开国勋贵，传至如今最大的武勋世家，虽不如上官氏，但份量亦不轻。
尤其是张与上官一体，很多时候上官一族可算半个宗室，某种意义上，卢氏更能代表宗室之外的唐廷勋贵家族势力。
“陛下，大将军来讯，已确定大空寺据点七处，其中有圆灭、寂象等逆贼当前落脚点。”卢震起身禀报道。
大将军上官云博当下不在帝京。
早在晋州之战前，他便出山。
不过，上官云博也没前往晋州，而是去了西边。
他携神策军中高手，暗中行动，目标指向大唐官方明确的叛逆之一，大空寺。
一方面，大空寺本就反唐。
另一方面，大空寺向内同世家望族有联系，向外则直接勾结大妖，无形中成了重要枢纽。
大空寺方丈圆灭试探金刚寺，结果碰壁，本是合适时机。
但金刚寺变化之大，异乎寻常，不能再以此前倾向唐廷的佛道圣地视之。
而关陇遭逢妖乱的情况下，纯阳宫出人预料快速失陷，又是大变故。
如此状况下，上官云博等人反不好轻举妄动，只先确保不失去圆灭、寂象法王等人的行踪。
除了荆襄方族和蜀山派北上入关中支援外，关敬、吕锦段迅速返回关中，唐晓棠和楚羽也先后过去，叫关陇局面不至于进一步恶化。
上官云博于是静下心来，不急妄动。
“朕移驾关陇，妖乱和金刚寺方面，无需他忧虑，大空寺那边，就交给他了。”女皇言道：“雪廷先前出关，已配山河剑，现在也去他那边。”
山河剑乃唐廷帝室掌握之武道神兵，同道门天师剑、儒家朔风剑等并称于世，又有大唐七大名剑之誉。
“据大将军所报，金刚寺迫退大空寺后，并未追击，但金刚界扩展巨大。”
上官庆言道：“就目前所知，是另有佛门高手现世，自称金刚部，来源乃是昔年九天之一的须弥！”
九天十地同人间断绝往来多年。
此前几个秘境虽然都有种种迹象表明，随着天地灵气潮涌带来的变化，九天十地可能重现，但都没有正式打通门户。
而现在，第一个出现了。
一般而言，九天十地皆高妙之境，更胜人间其他顶尖福地洞天。
但正因如此，天、地、人分隔数千载，可能产生的变化，让当前大唐内外更多是感到戒备，而非单纯惊喜。
女皇亲自往关陇一行，除了平定妖乱外，重点便在于须弥重新现世。
虽然对方暂时没有更进一步动作。
“三晋之地的事，就先辛苦常山王叔他们了。”女皇又言道：“你们从旁照应。”
晋州之战后，楚羽转而前往关陇之地，常山王张峻海则仍留在晋州。
一方面帮助悬天寺平息内乱。
另一方面，叶族当前无法继续在晋州立足，正是唐廷帝室插手三晋之地最合适的时机。
“陛下，天师府此战展现出来的各方面势力，出乎预料，颇多隐秘……”
四臣中唯一的女子也是唯一的张姓宗室，山阳大长公主张盈这时说道。
山阳大长公主乃大唐太宗之女，同张启隆、张晚彤的父亲是兄妹，身份尊贵之余，亦是目前张唐宗室中除女皇外最顶尖的女修。
她话里着眼点并不在于许元贞个人实力高下，而在于整个龙虎山天师府。
准确说，也不是龙虎山天师府顶尖修士的整体实力如何。
而是，势力。
或者说，潜势力，软实力。
“旁的地方不提，泽州、天乐山、菩提寺遗址皆重要，但天师府都察觉了，还有先前张锐的事情也是。”
张盈言道：“并且，都能短时间内就调集足够的人手，快速攻破这些地方，来去如风，想确定他们真实身份和接下来的行藏都不可得。”
江州之战后，唐廷帝室同样暗中不断检查。
至少，相助唐晓棠、雷俊攻打江州林族祖地的人，不是他们这边的儒家神射手。
也不是蜀山派中人。
准确说，不是明面上蜀山派的人。
而现在晋州之战，则再次确认这一点。
龙虎山天师府内外，可能隐藏一股潜势力，并且还不容小视。
以至于天师府自家，就基本解决了晋州之战，让唐廷帝室一些安排都落空。
张盈等张唐宗室高层，开始重新审视龙虎山天师府。
他们扶持天师府制衡世家不假。
但现在天师府反让他们有些看不透……
“当初蜀山内乱，极有可能有人假死隐遁。”卢震徐徐说道：“可能，便是这些人，他们和天师府，不知作何打算？臣以为，不止天师府，整个道门内部，水面下似有暗流。”
女皇：“不必急于下定论，说有暗流，江州、晋州他们上浮又太早了，不妨再看看，注意收集相关讯息便是。”
张盈四人皆道：“臣遵旨。”
女皇看向四人中最年轻者：“萧卿家，纯阳宫的事，查得如何了？”
年轻男子答道：“禀陛下，已有眉目，但还没拿到人。”
其人生得玉树临风，儒雅俊朗，只是身体看着有些单薄。
乃是陇外萧族出身，当前的学宫祭酒，萧春晖。
他已接谕令，特许入门下省政事堂同平章事，参知议政。
地方上几大名门遭受挫折，唐廷帝室连连扩张进取的同时，中枢方面女皇亦做出大动作，分割相权。
设政事堂，正是开始的标志。
女皇的情报网络分散，一般而言是楚羽、萧雪廷二人掌握。
二女当前皆不在帝京，萧春晖临时客串一二。
他当前的职司主要还是学宫祭酒。
但即将卸任。
女皇和他已经物色好了继任者，晚些时候自可平稳过渡接班。
世人皆传言萧春晖神思灵敏但肉身虚弱。
此言不假，莫说跟武者等肉身强悍者相比，便是跟咏诵一脉修行的儒生比起来，萧春晖肉身也远远不如。
不过也没有夸张到时刻卧床不起，走几步路就要气喘连连的程度。
他平时同常人无异，只是面色略苍白，身材瘦削单薄。
但语气平实，娓娓道来：“目前掌握的最新情况，纯阳宫内奸叛徒，可能另有其人，而非朱雀长老王玄，或者说，至少不止王玄一个。”
“哦？”上官庆、张盈、卢震目光都看过来。
萧春晖：“另一个名义上已死的人亦值得注意，纯阳宫玄武长老，顾翰。”
女皇：“顾翰还活着？”
萧春晖：“当前还没有找到人，但疑点重重，顾翰可能没有死。”
上官庆皱眉：“元婴夺舍么？”
此世修行道，存在夺舍或附体之法。
一般而言，南方巫门内较为常见。
尤其是巫蛊和咒祝两脉传承，皆有相关秘法。
血河一脉异常难以修成的大神通血神子，亦有类似法门，只是各方面条件都更苛刻。
严格意义上，巫门传承中只有神舞一脉的歌婆山，没有相关法门。
而鬼道一脉圣地金城寨的法门，不是鬼道修士本人夺舍附体外界对象，而是他们炼化的部分阴魂，或可做到，亦或者部分时候鬼道修士以神魂化入自己的行尸傀儡中。
类似法门，更多是修士肉身被毁后不得已的保命后着。
如果想要借此冒用他人身份，则很容易被高境界修士看穿，存在诸多不便，严重者将影响自身修行向上前途。
大唐皇朝内掌握夺舍或附体法门的传承则非常少。
一般而言只有一家，便是道家丹鼎派。
丹鼎派修士性命交修，不假于外物，修成极为坚固且强大肉身的同时，也修成坚固、灵动兼备的神魂。
他们可以神魂远游于外。
同时也有了夺舍附体的可能，尤其是自七重天结成元婴开始，这方面的能力将进一步增长。
只不过类似行径多年来一直被纯阳宫明令禁止，是以少见。
但这是自律，不是他们做不到。
“名义上死了的顾翰，可能没死。”上官庆徐徐问道：“那名义上失踪的王玄呢？”
此前消息，王玄背叛出卖了纯阳宫，同大妖里应外合攻破纯阳宫。
但纯阳宫破之后，便再未有人见过王玄。
如果他是被别人陷害背了黑锅，那他当前的处境恐怕就……
萧春晖：“我们的人发现了王玄被毁的肉身，尚不确定他元婴是否脱胎，还有待更进一步确认。”
上官庆、卢震、张盈三人闻言皆沉吟。
女皇吩咐道：“缉查王玄、顾翰，除此之外，此番纯阳宫被破，相关人等不论生死，都仔细查验一番，余者待朕到关中见过黄真人后再议。”
萧春晖：“臣遵旨。”
众人再议一番后，四臣告退。
但晚些时候，另一人再次出现在女皇驾前。
“陛下，静阁老人当前客居赵王殿下府上，除了他们过往的联系，可能另有隐情。”萧春晖言道。
静阁老人乃是晋州叶族老族主叶默权的号。
晋州之战后，叶默权为避韦暗城同唐晓棠，前往幽州，入了赵王府。
一定程度上，等于将双方关系公开。
不管内里真相如何，赵王张腾此前大面上，仍同晋州叶族、幽州林族这样的世家望族保持距离。
现在，却等于公然转向。
对一般人来说，赵王爷仍然是大唐德高望重的老王。
晋州叶族、幽州林族仍然大唐治下名门望族，国之柱石。
但对有心人而言，意义大不相同。
赵王的身影，开始在台前显现。
即便西北再次大乱，也很难说当前是合适时机，但他还是做出如此决定。
除了唇亡齿寒尽量要保叶默权外，帝室中枢不禁猜测，赵王此番另有所得。
“继续关注便是，小事你自行处置，大事报往长安。”女皇言道。
萧春晖：“臣遵旨。”
女皇：“对龙虎山天师府这次，你怎么看？”
萧春晖：“许道长天资才情与实力，自不虚传，哪怕停在当前不再进步，她至少也是上千年来天师府第一高手。”
何况，以许元贞表现出来的天资，指望她不继续进步，显然不可能。
“能与之相提并论者，暂时看，唯有将来也成就大乘之境的唐天师。”
萧春晖思索一下：“再就是那位雷俊雷道长，臣也很看好他的未来，不过他出手还是少，仅目前所见，不及许、唐强势。
不过，这方面臣同大长公主殿下是相同看法，相较于龙虎山几位道长的实力，天师府的潜势力才叫人意外。
按理说，先前李外决战，应该已经水清见底了，但现在看来，还有很多未明之事。”
这一战，基本上把晋州叶族所有底牌全打出来了。
并且晋州叶族还打输了。
不说赔的精光，也是损失惨重。
同时，更还把天师府一些底牌打了出来。
只是，萧春晖亦疑惑，如果天师府甚至整个道门私下里暗流涌动，有什么大图谋的话，那江州和晋州两战就浮上水面，又像是主动暴露，显得有些莫名其妙，从结果而言有利于天师府自家的同时，更有利于唐廷帝室。
我表面上有十，突然摆出来十二、十三，进一步取信外人，实则我有二十、三十甚至更多？
萧春晖暂不得其解。
唯有如女皇所言，先不妄下判断，继续观察再说。
女皇：“叶默权设在断龙沟的通盘劫，天师府中人察觉了么？”
萧春晖：“当时无人现身攻击，其后叶族中人便撤去通盘劫然后撤离，因此无法确定天师府或者说同他们相关之人有否察觉断龙沟的通盘劫，不过……臣倾向于他们知情。”
只是，叶默权这一劫是借山河地脉灵气而动，纯针对唐廷帝室，不影响天师府方面。
唐廷帝室也没有进一步动作。
晋州叶族祖地那边已经决出胜负，通盘劫变作无关痛痒的废棋。
唐廷方面便也不动。
埋在世家方面的暗棋，当尽量周全，使身份保密，争取能继续隐藏下去，未来继续发挥作用。
“静阁老人将族主之位传下去了。”萧春晖：“目前的消息，他要长时间静养，目前尚不知是伤势确实沉重，还是另有打算。”
女皇对此倒不纠结：“晚些时候能联系上许元贞后，问问她就知道了。”
萧春晖：“陛下，臣另有一事禀报，关于南宗林族，就在昨日，林宇维、林锦松，集合族中部分精干之才出海。”
女皇：“做什么去？”
萧春晖：“似是同九溪山人有关，但具体情形不明，臣已吩咐人手进一步探查。”
女皇点点头。
二人一问一答，在萧春晖禀报完毕后，女皇忽然问道：“孟少杰如何了？”
萧春晖：“还没开窍，心绪有些不稳，但当前情况下实属正常，修行一直勤恳，能把持自身。”
他微笑道：“陛下，臣以为火候早就够了。”
女皇：“都是儒家修行，厚积薄发下，以他的天资时间很富裕，火候则依然有不足。”
陛下要培养他，却希望最好不要忠于任何人，包括陛下和张唐宗室在内……萧春晖暗叹。
这个火候，可不好把握。
近则亲，远则可能生怨。
不过诚如陛下所言，孟少杰还年轻。
除了修行上还有时间外，随着他年龄增长阅历增长，心境会越来越稳固甚至沧桑，也更不易为外界所动。
只希望自家地里不要长了别人家的庄稼。
………………
雷俊自不会选择去东海长结岛。
那种危险的地方，当然是谁愿意去谁去了。
所以，结束自己在揽月福地的事后，传音给罗浩然打声招呼，雷俊便即离开匡庐山，一路向西去。
他抵达袁州地界。
然后在这里寻找青梅溪。
