Travel thousands of miles in my life

vertical day.

"Your Majesty, the imperial censor has an audience." The old eunuch whispered in the emperor's ear, "I have been kneeling for three hours."

"Oh? Let's announce it." The emperor just finished drinking the medicine and was in a good mood, and only then was he willing to listen to the ministers' performance.

"Xuan—Censor Cao Guangde has an audience." The old eunuch yelled in a shrill voice, flicking his fly whisk.

A guard came in with an old man with a white beard and a skinny stick, the old man knelt down tremblingly and saluted as soon as he entered, and said in a hoarse voice: "Your Majesty, you haven't gone to court for half a decade. "

"It's only half a day. I don't think you have anything to do." The old emperor waved his hand and said, "It's not that I'm addicted to pleasure, it's just that I'm in poor health and have no energy."

"Your Majesty! This dragon body can be treated by an imperial doctor. A country cannot live without a king for a day." The old imperial censor took out a memorial from his sleeve and handed it over to the steward.

The emperor propped his head on one hand, leaned on the bed leisurely, opened it casually, and saw dozens of people's names densely signed inside: "Cao Aiqing, what is the meaning of this?"

"I know that your majesty's dragon body has not been in good shape recently." After hesitating for a moment, the old censor said firmly, "I implore the prince to supervise the state affairs on your majesty's behalf."

"Presumptuous!" The emperor glared angrily, he couldn't hear anyone who wanted the crown prince or the princes to handle the court affairs for him.Although the emperor was old, he was still shrewd. He knew clearly that the crown prince supervising the country was just the first step to make him empty.The more he thought about it, the more the atmosphere became more intense. The emperor felt hot blood rushing to his head, and he slammed the booklet in his hand at Yushi: "I am obviously fine, why do I need a prince to supervise the country?! Aren't you the same?" Everyone expects me to die to make room for the crown prince?"

"I don't dare to wait!" The old censor couldn't dodge in time, he was hit straight, and his forehead was cut open.However, he ignored the pain, took a few steps forward, and said earnestly: "Your Majesty, if we hadn't reached the end of the road, the ministers would never have said such outrageous words. It's just that your majesty needs your decision on major matters. I need your approval. I cannot do without you in any way, and I beg you not to take any more pills."

Since ancient times, how many Ming emperors wanted to live forever and turned to Taoist eunuchs when they were old. The old censor was heartbroken. He was an old minister who followed the emperor to fight in the country.

"That's not some unfounded elixir, it's a panacea that can really save my life." The emperor frowned, he really didn't expect his courtiers to dare to question it so boldly.He wanted to kill that ignorant old thing along with the people on the list, but he finally restrained this bloodthirsty urge.

"What happened recently? I raised you to share my worries, if you bother me with small things." He twisted the corner of his mouth: "I want you to look good."

"Your Majesty, during the time you are taking care of your body, the officials of the North Road have been reporting continuously. It is rumored that there are villains digging private mines. Every night, everyone gathers up the mountain to dig and mine. It is estimated that what they mine should be rock gold. In this way It's natural to act boldly—"

Before Yu Shi finished the report, the old emperor waved his hand slightly and said: "I know about this matter, if it is, there is no need to report it in the future."

"Why is this, Your Majesty? Gold and iron mines are the foundation of the country. If someone with a heart wants to control them privately, then what should we do against the court?" Should be more careful."

"It is precisely because this is the territory of the fourth son that I feel at ease." The emperor snorted and held up the tea bowl: "The fourth son is a good man, decisive in killing and attacking, courageous and resourceful, quite like my demeanor back then. To be honest Let me tell you, this elixir was offered by him in order to alleviate the strange poison in my body, what kind of filial piety?"

He naturally knew how much shock his words would bring to the temple if they spread out, but——

"Cao Aiqing, how many years have you been with me?"

"If you go back to the emperor, it has been about forty years since I was able to go to high school when I was weak and crowned." The old censor sighed: "If you stay loyal for a few more years, I am afraid that I will have to retire. This person must always be given to the young Human."

I don't know which sentence touched the emperor's weak mind. He slammed everything on the couch table, pointed at the old censor and said: "This person is always mine! No one wants to divide it! Even if I If you die, you will be emperor in the underworld! You are all rebellious officials and thieves!"

The old censor raised his head in horror, and opened his mouth to persuade him, but was hit on the head by a stone inkstone, and fell down immediately.The steward frowned, glanced at the red-eyed and panting emperor, and quickly stepped forward to check the censor's breath, sighing inwardly.

Cao Guangde had been loyal all his life, but when he arrived, he ended up being crushed to death.It was really embarrassing, the manager lowered his eyes, watched the guards carry out the old man who was dying, and thought coldly in his heart: when he came in, he was helped, but when he went out, he had to be carried, and he was ordered to die by the emperor, huh.

The emperor was short of breath, and his complexion was a little worse than that of the censor who had just been carried out. He looked like an old man on the verge of death. He said to the manager with trembling hands, "Where is my medicine? Where is the medicine!"

The chief steward lowered his eyebrows and narrowed his eyes and said: "The matter of the mother-of-pearl is also a concern, please be patient, Your Majesty."

"When will I find it!" The old emperor fell off the couch, moved with a distorted expression, and stretched out his hand to ask for it from the manager.

"The old slave doesn't know either, but the attendant has already set off with the imperial decree. If you think about it, you will arrive in a few days." Everything is upside down. At this time, the eunuch with high status had the right to control life and death, while the emperor who could lay down millions of corpses in a fit of anger was humbled into the dust.

The old emperor turned over, with foul-smelling saliva dripping from the corner of his mouth, and staring blankly at the complicated and gorgeous roof of the palace with cloudy eyes.After a while, he laughed strangely.

Naturally, no one knew about the bloody storm in the Shangjing Palace, and a strange guest came to a border town in northern Xinjiang thousands of miles away.

"Is the customer playing the tip or staying in the store?" Seeing a customer coming to the store, the waiter hurried over and greeted him warmly.

"I can't stop, I'm in a hurry. Just serve some light dishes." The good-looking young man said with a smile: "Please ask, how do I get to Ajiye?"

"Is the guest going to do business?" The waiter quickly asked a question, and immediately felt that it was inappropriate: "I didn't mean to ask, but I saw that you don't seem to be a traveler, so I am talking too much, forgive me."

"It's okay." The young man was gentle and his voice was very clear, which made people feel good after hearing it: "I'm going to Ajiye to pick up the lost things."

"Then you really took a lot of effort." The waiter served the tea and sighed: "The road to Ajiye is not easy now."

"How?" The young man frowned.

"Just a few days ago, the road to Luoshena was sealed by the court, no matter the way back and forth. Don't say that the merchants borrowed it. If you want to go, you have to show the road card registered in the government office. If Can't get it out?" The waiter wiped the table, walked towards the counter and said: "If you can't get it out, you will be killed immediately, I heard that many people have died."

"Has the imperial court issued an official document saying why?" the young man asked.

"Hey, even if there are official documents, they probably won't be posted in Beifeng Town. You might be able to see them when you get to Ajiye." The waiter brought two plates of light dishes and a bowl of porridge along the way: "Send You have a bowl of white rice porridge, come visit the shop again next time!"

The young man was amused by him, and scooped up a spoonful of rice porridge in a good manner.The mouth is glutinous, soft and sweet, and the exhaustion of the day has disappeared in this mouthful of warm porridge. He smiled and said, "I must visit, this porridge is delicious."

Looking at the young man's gentle smiling face, the runner blushed a little and said, "Oh, I forgot to tell you just now. Going north after leaving the town, Ajiye is still a little far away."

"It's okay, I'm pretty fast." The young man said slowly.In less than a quarter of an hour, he finished his meal, left some broken silver on the table, and left.

When the waiter came out again, he only saw half of the guest's clothes.He froze for a moment, and hurried to the door, only to see the guest soaring into the air and heading away into the distance, with elegant and beautiful movements and an ethereal figure.He couldn't help smacking his lips, and sighed in his heart, he is simply a fairy.

The young man who was praised was none other than Wen Shuqiu who hurried northward, and since that day he had been rushing to Ajiye day and night.

He selfishly didn't want to involve Yan Wuwu, he had already paid enough.But at the same time, he also knew that it was impossible.The involvement of this matter is so extensive and deeply rooted that Wen Shuqiu, who only saw the tip of the iceberg, was shocked.

He couldn't help but recall what his mother had said to him the day before he left.

In that room where incense was burning and the smoke was misty like a fairyland, a beautiful woman leaned on the imperial concubine's couch, gently shaking the fan with the picture of a lady, and the sight that was always gazing at the sky finally fell on his eyes. body, the woman whispered: "From now on, don't give your blood to anyone."

"Why?" the young man asked puzzled.

"Because...you are special." The woman stood up and walked in front of the young man.He touched his son's cheek with a low smile, looked at his ignorant expression and repeated: "You are special, Qiuqiu. You are the end of everything."

Wen Shuqiu felt a little exhausted, so he slowed down and landed on the ground. He felt the direction of the wind—it was the wind season in the desert, and the wind direction was basically fixed.No matter what, he still has a small compass on his body to judge the direction.

His mother gave him a purse and told him to open it when no one was around, and remember to burn it after reading it.

The young man hesitated for a moment and opened it.A piece of paper fell out of it. The handwriting on the paper was written on something, but it turned out to be raised and very legible.He frowned slightly, and began to read slowly by touch.

"This is--!"

There were only three short lines on the paper, but the young man's hand holding the paper couldn't help shaking. After taking a deep breath to calm down, he immediately shattered the paper with his internal force.

Such a thing... how is it possible? !
