Devil’s Advent

It's not that the emperor has no precedent for staying in the courtier's house when he is on tour. In fact, there is this tradition.

Except for the kind of hunting in the southeast and northwest, the conditions are cramped, simple, and perfunctory, which is excusable;

Under normal circumstances, if the emperor goes on tour and stays in someone's house, then this is the great grace of heaven;

Basically, the emperor had just entered the front foot, and the original owner of the mansion on the back foot was all reduced to slaves and served them carefully.

Also in the Pingxi Palace, dare to treat the emperor's family as ordinary visiting relatives and entertain them normally.

The emperor also adhered to the principle of being a guest. Except for a few eunuchs and maids who were usually used to serve, the rest of the entourage were all placed outside the palace.

It can be said that besides Eunuch Wei, there is no one around the emperor who can fight.

This is also a kind of free and easy, the holy driver has already entered the palace, and the forbidden army has turned their attention to the west of the river and did not follow. In this palace, what's the point of having any other guards in front of you?

It would be better to leave the safety of Shengjia to the Wangfu.

Not to mention anything else, in terms of security, the emperor has always had great confidence in Prince Pingxi.

So, the blind man really just walked in like this. The two eunuchs standing at the door had received orders before and did not stop him.

The emperor was sitting in the pavilion looking at the prince's writing, and frowned slightly.

The prince's handwriting is very beautiful.

The brushwork is nimble and fast, and the handwriting is thin and vigorous, so thin without losing its flesh.

The queen read the word and couldn't help praising the beautiful writing.

But the emperor was dissatisfied, but it happened that he was dissatisfied, and it was inconvenient to say it directly.

The word son of my own family is somewhat similar to that of the surnamed Zheng.

It is an instinct for a child to imitate his father. It is also easy to understand that the prince has been fostered in the palace for a year and imitated his godfather's font;

But Zheng Fan practiced the same characters as Daze Xiangtong;

The fonts that Zheng Fan knew in his previous life were just a few, and he had practiced with a fountain pen. In this life, he needed to practice brush calligraphy, so he naturally took the familiar one and took the time to practice it;

For a military prince who was born in Wufuqiu Ba, the prince's handwriting can be written like this, which is really very good.

But the emperor just felt that the handwriting practiced by his son seemed to be full of muscles and bones, but in fact it was full of tenderness and deliberation. Ordinary literati wrote this handwriting for self-entertainment. , It is also easy to be self-pity and complacent, and the pattern is small.

However, it is impossible for the emperor to say these words to the prince, there is no need for this, but if he said it, the prince would have to sigh: After all, the emperor understands the emperor.

When the blind man came in, Wei Zhonghe greeted him with a smile.

People from the royal palace can do it here, and it is impossible to talk to the emperor directly.

Coincidentally, the emperor also turned his gaze at this time;

The characteristics of the blind man are still very obvious, the emperor said immediately; Let the sir come here.

Wei Zhonghe stepped aside.

The blind man went straight into the pavilion and bowed to the emperor and queen. Originally, like Siniang, he had no official position, but Siniang is now a princess, and the blind man is still a grassman. The salute can be much simpler.

It's just that most grassroots people don't have such arrogance.

The emperor interrupted his ceremony and motioned him to sit down.

Immediately, he signaled the queen to take the prince to avoid it first.

Before the prince left, he saluted the blind man seriously and said goodbye.

Although in name, King Pingxi is the prince Zhong's father and prince's tutor, but in fact, the prince's cultural and education teacher is blind.

The last time Yanjing seized the throne, the blind man didn't go to the capital, but stayed behind.

So unlike A Ming, Fan Li and the others, they met the emperor as many times as they did.

But at first glance, he is a blind person, and then he looks at the style of freely entering and leaving the inner courtyard of the palace, combined with the rumors of Zhi Fanli in the Pingxi Palace,

You can also guess his identity.

If there are no accidents, my husband and I should have been friends for a long time, right?

The emperor had known for a long time that a large part of the correspondence between him and Zheng was not replied by the person surnamed Zheng at all. If one person was selected to be qualified, it would probably be this Zhi Fanli or Mr. Blind Fan Li.

certainly,

The emperor didn't think that everything surnamed Zheng was in the hands of the gentleman in front of him.

Just like when we were drinking and chatting on the top of Mount Tai,

The emperor was also surprised: You really understand.

On this point, Juggernaut has a deep understanding.

The prince can always tell some exquisite truths, which makes him fall into an epiphany;

But the prince himself is just a mere fifth-rank rough martial artist.

However, martial arts are intuitively visible, and other aspects are difficult to have such a direct evaluation, especially in the aspect of martial arts, Zheng Fan has always performed extremely well;

Therefore, in the eyes of the emperor, the blind man should be Zheng Fan's right-hand man, and everything should still be dominated by Zheng Fan.

It's just that the exhausted one surnamed Zheng was too lazy, never respected the imperial power, and didn't treat himself as an outsider. When he was too lazy to reply to the letter, he asked the gentleman he had trained to help him reply.

This is the limitation;

For no one will believe that there is a man born with knowledge;

Naturally, he would never believe that there are people in this world who can open their eyes, and have both civil and military and loyal subordinates by their side.

It made His Majesty laugh.

The blind man was still neither humble nor overbearing towards the emperor.

I have also benefited a lot from Mr.'s many insights and inspired me a lot.

All of this is due to our prince's good teaching of the grass people.

The emperor was obviously not interested in flattering Zheng Fan when he was not in front of Zheng Fan, oh, if Zheng Fan was present, it would be even more impossible.

Sir, why are you here? the emperor cut to the chase.

Cao Min came to see a doctor for His Majesty.

Eunuch Wei's expression changed when he heard this.

The emperor's physical condition has always been the biggest secret in the country.

In the late period of Emperor Xiandi, his physical condition was deteriorating. Not only the Yan Kingdom, but other countries were actually guessing when the late Emperor's body would collapse;

Therefore, sometimes even the court ladies and eunuchs who serve around them have to be silenced.

If this is not the Pingxi Palace, if this gentleman in front of you is not the man from the Palace,

Eunuch Wei probably has already started.

The emperor frowned slightly, but recovered quickly and said with a smile;

What's wrong with me?

You have to check to find out.

good.

The emperor complied.

The blind man looked at Eunuch Wei and asked, There is a chessboard in the room.

This courtyard is packed up and specially used for Shengjia's residence, and all kinds of needs are available.

Go and get it, said the emperor.

yes.

Eunuch Wei went to the house to fetch the chessboard himself, and placed it in the pavilion.

immediately,

The blind man and the emperor began to play chess.

The emperor has something on his mind, and it is difficult for anyone to calm down when it comes to his physical condition, and the emperor also understands what his dragon body means to the current situation in Dayan.

It is no exaggeration to say that it is enough to affect the pattern of Zhuxia.

In Go, the most important thing is calculation ability. In this regard, the blind man is a well-deserved master.

Don't say that the emperor didn't put all his attention on the chessboard, even if he was ready to fight, he would not be a blind opponent.

The blind man killed heartily, and the emperor lost miserably.

After all, a blind man would not measure the emperor's feelings like those state masters raised in the palace or those ministers who were proficient in chess.

After the first game of chess,

The blind man did not hesitate,

The second set started, and the emperor followed up.

When playing the second game of chess,

The emperor thought of his father,

This is not in the side hall of the imperial study, but it seems that the voice of the father is heard next to the ear, which is very vague and cannot be heard clearly.

Similarly, in the second game of chess, the emperor also lost miserably.

The blind man did not hesitate,

Started the third set.

Play fast and lose fast, so each game doesn't take too long.

In the third set,

The emperor couldn't help looking at the mother and son who were talking in the corridor in the distance.

Every time the blind man makes a move, the speed is very fast;

The chess piece was at the fingertips of the emperor, but it did not fall. The emperor apologized:

Sir, please step down slowly.

Follow the order.

The blind man slowed himself down.

The emperor felt that the first two sets were played really too fast.

During the first game of chess, what he was thinking about was Zhuxia's situation and Dayan's great cause of unification, but it was over before it diverged;

In the second chess game, he didn't even hear his father's voice clearly, and it was over.

The first set, the second set, the end will be over soon, so it will be over soon.

But this third game,

He wanted to see his wife and children over there for a while longer.

In my heart, I couldn't help but have some thoughts;

If there is really a serious problem with your own body, and you can't recover from it, then what should your family members do?

When I think of my family,

The emperor immediately thought of the person surnamed Zheng.

Back then when I and the person surnamed Zheng were still getting along well, the two sides had joked, at least, they had to keep each other's family members.

When Yanjing's seizure of the heir was in full swing, the surname Zheng sent his subordinates to take over all the family members in his mansion;

There is no doubt that the emperor believed that the surname Zheng at that time, once he knew that he had failed to seize the heir, would do anything to bring his family back to Jindong safely.

At that time, the 10,000 Jingnan Army stationed in Yanjing City was Zheng Fan's backhand.

In fact, it doesn't take long to think about it.

It's really the worst.

It is the safest and most suitable plan to entrust the family to Zheng. It is the most suitable path I have chosen for my family because of my status as a husband and a father.

King Jingnan had chosen this path before.

The emperor was naturally immersed in this atmosphere. Accompanied by the crisp sound of falling pieces, it seemed that the chessboard in front of him had become some kind of temporary sustenance.

Although deliberately slowed down,

But the third game,

The emperor still lost badly.

The blind man was satisfied and comfortable.

The emperor said, Sir, what's wrong with my body?

The blind man raised his head,

road;

Your Majesty, let's start the inspection now.

………emperor.

Eunuch Wei next to him twitched his cheeks. Did you really just play chess?

When playing chess before, both the emperor and Eunuch Wei thought it was another way of checking. After all, there are many strange people in this world, and pulse diagnosis with silk thread can be regarded as an entry-level level.

But unexpectedly,

The blind man simply played chess and enjoyed the pleasure of killing the emperor to pieces on the chessboard.

Please sit down, Your Majesty.

The blind man stood up and walked towards the emperor.

Eunuch Wei narrowed his eyes, but he didn't stop him.

This is Prince Pingxi's mansion. If King Pingxi wants to kill the king, it should not be too easy, and there is no need to pretend to be a ghost, take off his pants and fart.

Is your Majesty feeling unwell? Cao Min asked about the more obvious symptoms.

I, occasionally have some nosebleeds, but the rest are nothing.

The emperor is almost short-lived. Although it is not known exactly how many years he lived, it should be much shorter than his father.

The blind man once specifically asked Tian Tian about the details of his dreams;

According to the prophecy, when Tiantian attacked Yanjing City, he was actually not too old.

At the same time, there is another problem here;

According to the prophecy, Tian Wujing died in battle at Zhennan Pass, pay attention, he died in battle.

Regardless of the theory of whether fate is constant,

The ending of the battle death wants to be changed, it is difficult to say, it is not difficult to say, and it is not difficult.

The thousands of miles of attacking Xueguan directly overturned the situation in the entire eastern Jin Dynasty. In the subsequent Yan-Chu national war, the lord alone disrupted the deployment of the Chu country. The military strategy with two hands can be called a magic pen, and successfully reversed the situation of the entire national war. ;

Lao Tian has no reason to be killed in battle, so it is difficult to be killed;

And the emperor,

If it wasn't an assassination, then it was a problem with the body itself. After all, the emperor was surrounded by a cloud of masters, and the imperial physician was also extremely good. They could all die, but it really felt like... having to die.

The emperor sits there,

The blind man gently pressed his right thumb on the emperor's forehead.

Sir, what means is this? asked the emperor.

Your Majesty, please calm down.

It's me who was abrupt.

The emperor closed his eyes,

The blind man also closed his eyes.

Wei Zhonghe stood on the side, and immediately, he felt the spiritual aura flowing out of the blind man, very thick and pure, like mercury pouring down the ground, pervasive.

There is no time for a stick of incense, and no effort for half a cup of tea.

In fact,

Maybe I counted less than ten silently.

The blind man opened his eyes, and at the same time retracted the thumb that was pressing on the emperor's forehead.

In fact, the human body is extremely complex, and it is impossible to do it all at once, but this time, it is really fast.

As soon as it started, it was over.

Wei Zhonghe carefully stared at the blind man's expression, but it's a pity that the blind man is used to the silence of ancient wells, and besides, you can't catch his gaze, because he doesn't have one.

The emperor's body, the emperor's hysteria, Wei Zhonghe, actually knows best. He was worried about it, but he didn't dare to think about it.

However, when this layer of gauze was picked up, it was impossible for the chief executive of Dayan's inner court who had served two emperors not to be cautious.

How is my body?

The emperor took the initiative to ask.

The blind man took two steps back, bowed down,

road:

Your Majesty's dragon body is healthy and healthy, which is the blessing of Dayan.

Well, this is talking nonsense with your eyes open, and it is a very blind kind of talk.

The emperor nodded and said:

That's good.

The grass people have finished checking for His Majesty, and the grass people leave.

The emperor took out an exquisite snuff bottle from his cuff and handed it to the blind man:

It's not a reward, but a consultation. This is the rule.

The blind man smiled:

Thank you grass people.

the blind man is gone;

Eunuch Wei frowned, hesitated to speak.

Some things, when the servants naturally have to see and pretend not to see, know and pretend not to know, but when it comes to issues of principle, Eunuch Wei still has a bottom line.

He is a servant of the emperor's family, and the word jia means he is a family member.

His Majesty……

The emperor raised his hand and said:

The one surnamed Zheng will tell me.

Wei Zhonghe still said very seriously: Your Majesty, how can you...

Wei Zhonghe. The emperor interrupted Wei Zhonghe.

The slave is here.

Believe it or not, in this world, there is nothing but my empress, concubine, children, and... the current crown prince.

All right,

Then count you and Zhang Banban.

For outsiders,

I don't want anything to happen to my body,

I'm afraid it's Zheng's surname.

...

Outside Fengxin City,

Gourd Temple.

The paper figurine is still curled up in a dry corner, thinking about life.

The old monk has gone to rest;

The little monk just went to refill the sesame oil. After finishing his work, he sat on the small bench, holding the snack in his hand, pinching the orchid fingers, and eating bit by bit;

People who are used to dancing in the wind in Jindi may not be able to hold back when they see this scene.

The paper figurine saw this,

Silently muttered:

Son of Heaven, celestial phenomena, luck...

At first, the little monk thought that the Taoist priest was going crazy, so he just glanced at it and ignored it.

After eating snacks, the little monk felt a little sleepy, and then he lay down on the stool and fell asleep.

The paper figurine is still murmuring those words;

In fact, the Taoist has long seen the true identity behind the little monk, after all, they have fought against Fengxin City.

What he said was just an introduction, for the purpose of leading the snake out of the hole.

The little monk, who was lying there dozing off, raised his head at this moment, and looked at the paper figurine. For a moment, the dharma was solemn, and this gaze alone was enough to make believers surrender.

Seeing this, the paper man opened his mouth and said;

No matter how much a dragon transforms into a dragon, as long as he still has that layer of skin on his body, he still cannot be regarded as a dragon;

Now,

The real dragon emperor is right in front of him,

Are you not interested?

The little monk shook his head.

The paper figurine is a little depressed,

Busily said:

Are you determined to hang yourself from a tree?

The little monk said:

Then do you know why most people in this world fall to their deaths from trees?

Why?

Because they climbed one tree, but looked around at other trees, fell to their death, and deserved it.

Having said this,

The little monk lay back on his stomach again, and gradually let out a snoring sound.

...

Checked?

Zheng Fan sat in the room, looking at the blind man who came back to look for him, and A Ming stood beside him.

Originally, Zheng Fan planned to personally persuade the blind man to help Ji Laoliu check his body, but the blind man took the initiative to go.

At the same time, the reason given by the blind man may seem ridiculous to outsiders, but in Zheng Fan's view,

But exceptionally detailed, organized and convincing!

If you go back to the master, the subordinates have checked it.

So fast?

Because, once it starts, it's over.

Tell me.

The blind man stretched out his hand,

Pointing to his own head,

road;

My lord, in the emperor's head, there is a...

Tumor.
