The Head of the Ming Dynasty Spared His Life

"Hey, this time, it was Your Majesty who sent me to give Mr. Yan a bottle of ageless water, tsk tsk, only Lu Taibao has this favor."

Having said that, Huang Jin put a small jar in front of Yan Song and opened the cover.

Yan Song's heart throbbed slightly. He was insensitive to Jiajing's hobby. Those pills made of lead and mercury could not let people go to heaven, but only to the west. This so-called Shenshui is mostly nonsense.

"Eunuch Huang, where did this come from?" Yan Song asked cautiously.

Chapter 74 The mystery of catching ghosts and Shenshui [1]

When Yan Song first studied history, the reason why he was deeply impressed by Jiajing was that the emperor was so superstitious about Taoism, cultivation, and immortals that he could not go to court for more than 20 years.

There are two Taoist priests who have the most influence on Jiajing Taoism, one is Shao Yuanjie and the other is Tao Zhongwen.

The Shaoyuan Festival was in the early period, and Tao Zhongwen was in the middle and late period.

The three palaces and six courtyards of the ancient emperors were not entirely for lustful purposes. Most of them were for the purpose of continuing the succession of the descendants, and consolidating the imperial power. The emperors of all dynasties paid great attention to the enhancement of the room~zhong~ technique.

As a famous Taoist emperor in history, Emperor Jiajing began to use the Taoist method of nourishing qi and self-cultivation very early. In order to enhance his sexual ability and continue his offspring, Emperor Jiajing adopted the secret recipe technique presented by Taoist Shao Yuanjie 20 years before his ascension to the throne. Sex ~ ability.This secret technique allowed Emperor Jiajing, who had no children at the time, to have "continuous heirs" three years later, and Shao Yuanjie was greatly favored.

However, this recipe also has side effects. The offspring are often weak and sickly and even die prematurely, which makes Jiajing give up Shao Yuanjie, and at this time, Tao Zhongwen gradually emerges.

Tao Zhongwen pointed out that the ancient method offered by Shao Yuanjie was "strong but not warm, rushing but not soft".The effect was very good, and several strong descendants were left, including the later Ming Muzong Zhu Zaiyu.

Although Yan Song didn't like Jiajing cultivators and religious scholars very much, he did not feel bad about Tao Zhongwen, because Tao Zhongwen was a kind man. Before Tao Zhongwen's death, he was named "Uncle Gongcheng" by Emperor Jiajing, with an annual salary of [-] shi, less The teacher is still a young master, a young protector, a Guanglu doctor Zhuguo, and a branch scholar, and his wife also has a rank of official life and many official positions. It can be said that the grace is not worse than today's Yan Song, or even higher.

"History of Ming Dynasty" is written like this, "Zhongwen has been favored for 20 years, and he is an extremely human minister, but he is careful and meticulous, and dare not act recklessly." Fan who pretends to be you, and his prescription was also passed down among court officials and nobles, and was written by Li Shizhen at that time in his "Compendium of Materia Medica": "The method of consolidating the root of Cynomorium is from Tao Zhenren. At the beginning, there is no one who can match it later.”

It is precisely because of his admiration for Tao Zhongwen that Yan Song hated that Taoist priest Duan Chaoyong yesterday. In the novel, Duan Chaoyong is openly asking for bribes, and in Dali, it means interfering in the state affairs. This is attacking the civil servants headed by Yan Song. Group faces.

But now Yan Song can't laugh or cry, Jiajing actually sent Shenshui over and said 'Yan Aiqing, this is my great reward to you'.

Huang Jin is mysterious: "Elder Yan Ge, do you believe in ghosts and gods?"

Yan Song smiled: "Of course I believe it."

Huang Jin smiled angrily and said, "Don't lie to me, Mr. Yan, I know all about the priest in the palace yesterday, but I didn't dare to tell your majesty... Actually, our family didn't believe in ghosts and gods. Yes, but this time, our family saw something amazing..."

"Amazing thing?" Yan Song suddenly showed interest: "Father-in-law, why don't you tell me in detail, it will open my eyes."

Yan Song was worried that he didn't know how to catch the ghost, and now Huang Jin came to solve the puzzle.

Huang Jin nodded: "Okay, I'll talk about it carefully, Mr. Yan Ge, don't spread it everywhere."

Yan Song smiled and said, "Don't worry, Eunuch."

Huang Jin began to speak: "That night, Daoist Duan caught two ghosts, the first time he came to a dark palace, which is the West Palace..." Here Huang Jin just winked.

Yan Song nodded, the West Palace is still abandoned, because at that time a Queen Fang was burned to death here, and it was Jiajing who ordered the fire not to be put out and burned alive.

Huang Jin: "Duan Daochang caught a ghost for the first time here. He took the peach wood sword, walked into the dark place, recited some incantations, and then a ghost appeared. Run away from the crack of the door."

Yan Song stopped: "Wait, can you tell me about this ghost? Is it obvious? Does this ghost have any appearance? Is it just a lump?"

Huang Jin: "The appearance is very obvious, as for the appearance..."

Yan Song nodded and asked, "What about the next ghost?"

Huang Jin: "That was the day before yesterday. Daoist Duan suddenly said that he had caught the ghost, and then said that the ghost was going to escape. Then he stepped out of a gang step, set up a formation, wielded a peach wood sword and fought fiercely with the ghost. In the end, several ghosts were finally brought down on several sheets of yellow paper."

"What do you mean by surrender?"

"There are ghost shapes on the yellow paper, like pictures, lifelike..."

Yan Song: "Where's the yellow paper?"

Huang Jin: "Burn it."

Yan Song nodded.

Huang Jin looked at Yan Song: "Does Yan Ge have any different opinions?"

Yan Song smiled and shook his head: "No, I don't understand either. It seems that there must be a ghost." 120

Huang Jin nodded: "Our family is a bit convinced now, Mr. Yan, tell you, this Taoist priest does have real materials. These few nights, His Majesty has recruited two palace maids to serve. Invincible majesty, it's this [Immortal Divine Water]..."

"Thank you, Your Majesty!" Yan Song quickly thanked him and took the altar of [Immortal Water] moved.

After a few more chats, Huang Jin left.

Yan Song's face showed a contemplative look. Just now, Huang Jin said about catching ghosts twice. Yan Song probably has a method. Let's do an experiment in the past few days.

Glancing at the water of immortality on the table, Yan Song sneered, it goes without saying that there is definitely something wrong with this divine water.The so-called divine water and medicinal pills by the ancient liar and Taoist priests were mostly because of adding some heat and nourishing medicines to the medicinal pills.

And ancient times are not like modern times. There are no modern precision instruments to detect what this thing has, so it is impossible to prove whether this Shenshui is Shenshui or because of drugs.

After thinking about it, Yan Song called Yan Nian in: "Take a few rabbits and try to bring them as new-born ones. The smaller the better... um... 4 is fine."

Yan Song wanted to do an experiment to see what the effect of this so-called Shenshui really was.

Chapter 75 Jiajing is in trouble, the court shakes [2]

There is a saying in Chinese medicine: medicine has three parts poison.

Yan Song knew that something was wrong with the Shenshui, so Yan Nian quickly asked Yan Nian to find four rabbits, which were just half a month old and a little bigger than a palm.
