The law of true fragrance that cannot be escaped

Rumors came out from the palace that the master of Taihua Temple practiced Yunyuan Pill for the Empress Dowager and Emperor Ruikang. The medicine will definitely make people nourish blood and soothe the nerves, and prolong life.

"Nonsense, exaggeration!" The old lady Fu Qin Xuegong was originally the teacher of Emperor Ruikang, and now he is also the minister who persuades the emperor not to be addicted to the most pills in the court.

Although I heard that the master of Taihua Temple successfully prayed for rain for Fengcheng, when the specific prayer for rain came to the capital, it would always be a bit exaggerated, and it was extremely unbelievable to some people's ears. He even thought that all of this was just because Ronghua was too lucky, and when he arrived in Fengcheng, it happened to rain in Fengcheng.

Qin Xuegong was one of them. He discouraged Emperor Ruikang all the year round, causing the old man to have a prejudice against the Taoist priests in the palace. I have to believe it.

The old lady Fu was so angry that she wanted to speak up, but was dissuaded by her son Qin Yuan.

"Father, the Empress Dowager has always been the one who advises His Majesty the most, and now even the Empress Dowager approves of the Yunyuan Pill refined by the Lord Rongguan. Your Majesty is furious."

Qin Yuan said worryingly, sometimes his father is too rigid, because he used to be His Majesty's teacher, he didn't save His Majesty's face at all, if he didn't see his father teaching all over the world, I'm afraid His Majesty would have long since tolerated his father's repeated mistakes. in this way.

But now His Majesty must be in high spirits, as soon as his father went up, he poured cold water on him, and if he bluntly said that the medicine pill was useless, he might anger His Majesty.

"No, as a father, you must remonstrate, and your loyal words are against your ears. Now your majesty is coaxed by that monster so much that you can't even go to the court, and the queen mother has not persuaded your majesty. If you don't share your worries for your majesty, I'm afraid my Jin Dynasty will be in danger. The royal family It's dangerous!" The old matriarch argued vigorously, full of grief and indignation.

Qin Yuan was helpless behind him, "Father, His Majesty just didn't go to court for a day..."

I heard that he took the Yunyuan Pill refined by the temple master. He got up early and slept too soundly, and no one responded when he woke up. The queen mother made the decision and waived the court meeting this morning.

So, the ministers who waited all morning went back to the house again. My father was anxious at that time, but now he couldn't bear it until noon.

"One day, there will be two days, three days!" The old lady Fu slapped the table angrily, "Yuan'er, as my son, why don't you have the sense of crisis to worry about His Majesty? That monster must be talking nonsense. , What kind of elixir can make people recuperate the body in a deep sleep, it is all nonsense, even the imperial physician did not invite to have a look, could it be that the whole palace has been deceived..." The old matriarch said heartbrokenly, beating his chest and stamping his feet.

Qin Yuan: "Father..."

"My son, don't talk about it. As a father, you must go to the palace to meet His Majesty, so that you can feel at ease."

Qin Yuan had no choice but to say, "The son entered the palace with his father." At least he could persuade his father when he spoke out.

Taifu Qin, the teacher of Emperor Ruikang, entered the palace to meet the Holy Majesty, and was taken to the study respectfully by the eunuch, "Teacher Qin, Lord Qin, Your Majesty will be here in a while, and I have to trouble you two to wait."

"It should." Qin Yuan nodded.

Qin Taifu had a worried expression on his face. After the eunuch went down, he couldn't help but said to Qin Yuan, "Weifu has already informed the old friends in the imperial hospital to get ready. If your majesty's complexion is extremely bad, you must call your majesty to announce the imperial physician with Weifu." Enter the palace."

Qin Yuan nodded in response, "My son knows."

At this time, Emperor Rui Kang's laughter came from outside the study, "Teacher Qin came here today. The Taifu is old, and the Lord of the Temple is also here. How about taking a look at the health of the Taifu..."

Ronghua smiled and walked into the study with Emperor Ruikang. Because of the matter of Yunyuan Pill, he wanted to discuss with Emperor Ruikang the pill to be refined next. As soon as he entered the study, Ronghua noticed an old man staring at him. To himself, with sharp eyes.

"Your Majesty, old minister..." Qin Taifu was about to speak, but he was stunned when he saw the face of Emperor Ruikang. In the past, Emperor Ruikang was obsessed with Taoism and alchemy, his face was not sallow, but it could be seen that he was not good. When I saw her today, it was rare for her to look rosy and full of energy.

"Teacher, you don't need to be too polite." Didn't notice that the old lady was stunned, Emperor Rui Kang helped him up, "Why did the old lady come here today?"

Mentioning this, the old matriarch cheered up, and it happened that the monster was there, so we must stand up and fight against him!Let Your Majesty no longer be confused by the demon way!

Ronghua saw the old matriarch glaring at him again, and just as Emperor Ruikang sat down, he began to scold him eloquently, so sharply that Ronghua almost thought he was a demon.

However, Emperor Ruikang, as a staunch "supporter" of Ronghua, was furious after hearing the old lady Fu's words. He said that Ronghua is a demon, isn't he saying that I have a problem with the vision of appointing a demon, and I am not worthy of being a wise king? !

I have to say that the two are worthy of a teacher-student relationship, and their thinking can diverge.

So, when the old matriarch Fu talked more and more freely, Emperor Rui Kang slapped the table with a dark complexion angrily, "Teacher, be careful!"

The old matriarch said with a sad face, "Everything the old minister says is for His Majesty's sake, please listen to the old minister's words."

Emperor Rui Kang sat down angrily, "I've heard the words of the Tai Tuo for many years, the Tai Tuo is able to live until now because of my kindness.

For the sake of Taifu being my teacher, I have never disputed with you, but now, the news of Lord Rongguan's success in praying for rain has spread to the capital, hasn't the Taifu heard of it?Still stubbornly thinking that Master Rong is a demon, this is the fault of the Taifu! "

Qin Yuan has a bad heart, I am afraid that what his father said today must have angered His Majesty, but with his father's stubbornness...

Sure enough, when Qin Xuegong heard that Emperor Rui Kang not only did not reflect on himself, but blamed him for his mistakes, his face became even more distressed, "Your Majesty!"

However, before he finished speaking, he saw the old matriarch clutching the clothes on his chest with one hand in pain and falling to the ground.

"Father!" Qin Yuan turned pale with shock, and hurriedly hugged Qin Xuegong.

"Teacher?" Emperor Rui Kang was also surprised.

Ronghua took a step forward and grabbed the old matriarch's wrist, fearing that he was in a hurry, if he didn't get medical treatment in time, the old matriarch's body might not be able to hold on.

"Your Majesty, can you give the Grand Tutor a Yunyuan Pill, or your life may be in danger." Ronghua turned to look at Emperor Ruikang and said.

"Qin Yuan, hurry up and feed your father." Emperor Rui Kang took out the small porcelain bottle from his arms and threw it on Qin Yuan's body.

After Qin Yuan caught it, he hesitated a little, instead of rushing to announce the imperial physician, he wanted to feed his father the pill, would this... be useful?

However, it was the pill thrown by Emperor Rui Kang himself, before Qin Yuan could make a move, Ronghua took it and opened the bottle, and the fragrance of the pill came to his nostrils instantly.

After pouring out the elixir and stuffing it into Qin Xuegong's mouth, the old master Fu's complexion improved at a speed visible to the naked eye.

Seeing that everyone was fine, Emperor Rui Kang snorted coldly and sat back on the chair again.

"How does the grand master feel?" Rong Hua asked the old master's hand down.

The old matriarch could not speak because of his worry, but his eyes could still see. He watched the elixir being fed into his mouth, it almost melted in his mouth, and then a warm current flowed through his body, making people slowly Rejuvenated.

He looked into Ronghua's eyes, his eyes were clear, seemed to contain a little bit of brilliance, his face was clear and handsome, if he wasn't wearing a Taoist robe, he really didn't look like a Taoist priest...

"You... really prayed for rain..." the old matriarch's still weak voice sounded.

"It is indeed Ronghua who succeeded in praying for rain. Don't be prejudiced by the previous Taoist priests. They can't compare with me." Ronghua laughed.

"It's self-confidence..."

"The elixir taken by the Grand Tutor can already explain everything." Rong Hua asked Qin Yuan to help the old Grand Tutor up.

"Is my father alright?" Qin Yuan asked while supporting the old matriarch.

Ronghua: "The Tai Tuo has worked hard for His Majesty for many years, and he has been worrying too much. Although the Yunyuan Pill can temporarily relieve the Tai Tuo's condition, it cannot cure it. If you want to cure it, you must refine the Huanyang Pill."

"What's the effect of the Huanyang Pill?" Emperor Rui Kang asked suddenly, he was more interested in the pill than to blame the old lady for offending him.

"Bring back those whose lives are hanging by a thread, but each person can only use Yang Dan once."

These words caused Emperor Rui Kang and the old lady Fu Qin Yuan to stare wide-eyed, especially Emperor Rui Kang, his breath became short of breath, and he stood up from his seat, "This, what the Master said is true?!"

"It's true, the Taifu's body is at the end of its strength, and it's just right to use the Yangyang Pill."

The old matriarch came back to his senses but refused, "No, I can't use it..." How could he be able to use such a elixir with such shocking effects, not to mention that he just annoyed His Majesty, let alone use it at this time Elixir.

Rong Hua: "Refining is very simple. The medicinal materials given by His Majesty are enough. If the Tai Tuo uses them, of course he will have to pay for it. Just give money, which is just enough to enrich the national treasury."

Enrich the treasury... No, all the pills belong to him.

Emperor Rui Kang narrowed his eyes and sat down again, "My lord, these are all my medicines."

The implication is that he should have the final say on how to arrange it.

Rong Hua laughed and said, "If Your Majesty has already decided to practice Taoism with Rong Hua, then you should not pay too much attention to such mundane matters, and Your Majesty had better select a prince who can take the throne as soon as possible, and make him the crown prince."

"scare!"

The old master Fu and Qin Yuan gasped, wondering if they would be able to get out of the study alive today.

There was no sound in the study room, the eunuch and maid began to lower their heads desperately, sweat dripping down.

"If I want to practice Taoism, I won't be able to be an emperor, can I?" I don't know how much time passed before I heard Emperor Rui Kang ask in a deep voice, the voice seemed to contain thunder and anger.

"You could say the same."

Ronghua answered without hesitation, and he was not afraid of Emperor Ruikang's face, he stretched out his hand, and in an instant, the power of the white awn turned into flying cranes and butterflies, no bigger than the palm of his hand, fluttering in the study.

White cranes and butterflies landed on the table in front of Emperor Ruikang, at the two ends of the paper.

"Once you practice Taoism, your lifespan can be extended. To be an emperor, you need to put your heart and soul into it to achieve long-term stability. The same is true for Taoism. You can never choose both, and you can only choose one. It all depends on how your majesty chooses. If both All want..."

Rong Hua smiled, "Of course it's possible, but I'm afraid it won't meet what His Majesty thinks, because His Majesty is old and has already passed the best age for cultivating Taoism. If you still pay attention to these common things, Rong Hua can only say, Your Majesty The achievements in cultivation will not be great."

Rong Hua's words were shocking to the world, the old matriarch couldn't keep his mouth shut, Qin Yuan was dumbfounded, and Emperor Rui Kang's face sank like water.

And the servants in the study had already knelt on the ground, sweating profusely.

Ronghua's expression was as usual, and sooner or later he would say that Emperor Ruikang's aptitude was not good, and no matter how hard he tried to cultivate, he would not be able to catch up.

From the perspective of this era, it may be difficult for Ronghua to promote Taoism in the whole world. Emperor Ruikang's desire to control it is amazing. He has raised Taoists in the palace all year round. people learn.

This is contrary to the mission that Ronghua wants to accomplish. If Emperor Ruikang is in power, he must control power and practice Taoism, then Ronghua's decision to preach in the world will be full of obstacles.

First of all, you have to trick Emperor You Ruikang into indulging in Taoism quickly, and then worry about other things.

"Your Majesty, don't worry, Ronghua will show you something nice..." Saying that, the well-behaved cranes and butterflies on the table instantly flew into Emperor Ruikang's body.

………………

No one knew exactly what was said in the imperial study room at that time. After they came out, Tai Tuo and Qin Yuan remained silent, but a few days later Ronghua's newly trained Huanyang Pill was sent to Tai Tuo's residence.

A few days later, Emperor Ruikang said bluntly in the court hall that he would choose one of the four princes to be the crown prince. However, once he became the crown prince, he could not practice Taoism.

Such a strange request made all the ministers puzzled, and the Queen Mother even went to Emperor Ruikang's study to question him immediately after she came down to court.

"Why did the emperor issue such an edict? Why can't one become a prince to practice Taoism? But what did Master Rong say?"

"Master Rong has indeed said a lot to me..."

Emperor Ruikang stretched out a hand, and in the empress dowager's disbelief, a little purple dragon emerged from the palm and hovered around Emperor Ruikang's wrist.

Emperor Ruikang touched Xiaolong's head with joy, "I just know that every generation of emperors has a purple dragon to protect them, but dragons can protect the emperor, but they also deprive the emperor of the possibility of cultivating Taoism.

This purple dragon was inspired by Lord Rong Guan. When the purple dragon appeared, the emperor's lifespan could be extended by 200 years. With the purple dragon protecting his body, no one could hurt him, even a monk like Rong Guanzhu. The emperor, if he is injured, he will be punished by heaven, but if the emperor cultivates Taoism, Zilong will disappear immediately..."

This means that the imperial power and the destiny cannot be combined. If the reigning emperor has a long life span, it will not be a good thing for the dynasty.

Emperor Ruikang sighed, "It turns out that what Master Rong said about taking one or the other means this..."

The queen mother looked at the small and exquisite Zilong in surprise, "Then the emperor's choice?"

"I want to practice Taoism! A mere 200-year lifespan is impossible to satisfy my wish!" Emperor Ruikang accepted Zilong and said, "Just choose from the four princes and see who they want to be."

The author has something to say: Ronghua: After fooling the emperor, then fooling the prince, after fooling inside the palace, then go outside the palace to fool.
