Red Mansions Dressed Into the Forest
Chapter 67
It is said that this little Taoist listened to the conversation between Ling Taifei and his confidant, no matter how turbulent his heart was, even his heart beat wildly, his chest tightened, but he couldn't see the slightest clue on his face.
Holding his whisk, the little Taoist murmured a scripture to ward off disasters and evil spirits in every corner of the palace, until he finished his daily homework, and then walked out of Lingtai Concubine's territory unhurriedly.
All the guards, eunuchs, eunuchs and maids along the way didn't notice anything unusual.
However, as soon as the little Taoist priest returned to his master, he immediately revealed his true form—his master was the middle-aged Taoist priest who made alchemy for the Supreme Emperor.
This middle-aged Taoist priest is the beloved disciple of the national teacher, and his Taoist name is Qingxu.
The little Taoist stood next to the master with the look of the rest of his life after a catastrophe, and he almost tugged on the master's sleeve or hugged the master's thigh, with snot and tears.
Qing Xu is quite strange: this little disciple is born with sharp ears and eyes, and has always been bold and careful... He put on such an appearance today... Could it be that he heard something?
So Qingxu looked at the little disciple and grandson with a smile, "Speak, master, listen."
It is said that the practice of the national teacher is very special: they can talk about him left and right, and they can not report what they know, but once they speak, they must tell the truth.
The little Taoist priest can be considered to have found the backbone, and he explained in detail what he heard today.
Qing Xu caressed the long beard on his chin and said: "So that's the case. Sure enough, he committed another crime..." After a pause, he asked with a smile, "Didn't you report the letter to the Holy Master?"
The little Taoist almost gave up his knees, "Master, you know all about it?"
Qing Xu flicked the little disciple's shoulder casually, "You are a clever little boy, don't you know that I know?"
Only then did the little Taoist smile through his tears, and immediately approached his master and whispered, "It's just that... I can't breathe."
It is said that the lineage of the national teacher used to practice and live freely in the Taoist temple in the suburbs of Beijing. no the same.
But just because they have never been outstanding, and they really have real abilities, they have fallen into the eyes of the Supreme Emperor.
After the family of three, the Emperor Taishang and Concubine Ling, visited the national teacher, the national teacher knew that he would suffer, but there was a large group of disciples and grandchildren, "If you can run away, the monk can't escape the temple"... This catastrophe is really impossible to escape.
Then King Zhongshun surrounded the Taoist temple where the national teacher was located with the forbidden army and the secret guards. Fortunately, Qing Xu, the first disciple of the national teacher and also his beloved disciple, stood up decisively and said: When it comes to alchemy skills, the master is not as good as me.
It is well known that the national teacher does not lie, but in fact the national teacher's alchemy skills are indeed inferior to his apprentices.
After all, this group of Taoist priests is still needed, and it is not easy for the Supreme Emperor to force too much.Therefore, Qing Xu took several apprentices and grandchildren, and was detained by the Supreme Emperor to practice alchemy in the palace.
There are apprentices and grandchildren who are held in the palace as meat tickets, and the national teacher has a certain amount of freedom.To be honest, the national teacher's cultivation is extraordinary, even if the Supreme Emperor sent elites to keep an eye on him, they could not keep track of the national teacher's whereabouts at all times.
The national teacher is a real master, and the apprentice of the national teacher was detained, and the emperor became more polite to the national teacher, let alone his subordinates.Most of the time, it's just a matter of turning a blind eye and closing a blind eye. No one wants to be serious.
So when the national teacher met Lin Hai, no one knew about it except the person involved.
It is said that the national teachers are free to come and go, and the treatment of the national teachers in the palace is not bad except that they cannot go out of the palace, but this does not mean that these monks can only close their eyes and endure instead of rebelling.
To cut off the fate of the country, there are such extreme means as the national teacher, and the national teacher and his disciples and grandchildren can also do it together.But the change of dynasty will always be accompanied by blood flowing into rivers. Even a complete layman knows that this kind of thing has a huge backlash, and the lowest price is the complete severance of the line of the national teacher.
As long as there is still a little hope in the lineage of the national teacher, this method of burning jade and stone will not be used: although the emperor is getting older and unreliable, the emperor is stable, and the king of Yizhong is even more handsome after he recovers...
Can that young master survive these two calamities safely?It's hard.
Qing Xu knows that his words and deeds involve too much, and he has more eyes and ears around him, but fortunately, in his own room, he doesn't have to worry about having ears on the partition wall—although his cultivation level is not as good as that of his master, it is still better to arrange a magic circle in the room to confuse outsiders. No problem.
Qingxu then said to his young apprentice: "You have always had a sense of propriety, the master has accepted you."
The little Taoist said in surprise: "Master! Really?"
Qing Xu said with a smile: "Go ahead, Shi Zu will help you take a look. Say what you have this time."
The little Taoist came out from his master and went back to his room to practice under the eyes of all the eyes and ears.Two days later, the little Taoist continued to chant sutras in the corner of the courtyard to get rid of evil spirits. While walking, he "inadvertently" passed a little eunuch who was lowering his head to weed and water, and accidentally knocked over the bucket at his feet.
For some reason, the little eunuch was hit by the overturned bucket and fell down himself.The little Taoist priest pulled him up and asked for a long time. The little eunuch's novel was fine, so the little Taoist priest left in peace.
And the little eunuch walked out of the huge palace of the Supreme Emperor with his head slightly lowered, carrying a few weed seeds, broken leaves, mud spots and clods on his clothes under the eyes of everyone.
The little eunuch left the Emperor's territory safely, returned to his residence, and was about to change clothes... His master stopped him as soon as he entered the door.
The urgency on his master's face was clear at a glance, and the little eunuch didn't flinch, but said clearly, "Master, the secret letter is wrapped in the mud on my body."
The little eunuch's master is naturally the Holy Majesty's confidant, the deputy commander of the hidden guards on the Holy Majesty's side, and he personally interrogated those "colleagues" that King Yi'an dumped on the Holy Majesty.
Unlike Duan Tang, who was found out by Lin Hai and committed suicide decisively because she knew she had no luck, facing the confidants of the Holy Majesty, the hidden guards who were arrested were more or less lucky: To be honest, what if you don’t have to implicate your family? ?Or simply save your own life?
After all, they just pass on news, and they haven't done anything bad—at least not in the Wang family.
It stands to reason that such a secret guard ambushing the Wang family would not know too much about the affairs of the Supreme Emperor, but the one in the Wang family who was in charge of relaying news... has a good uncle who works by the Supreme Emperor's side.
You must know that not everyone thinks that following the Supreme Emperor and Ling Taifei... will have a good future.
After the little eunuch's master interrogated him carefully, he boldly suggested to find a breakthrough from the line of the national teacher: Isn't this a good idea?
The little eunuch, his master, didn't expect the response to come so quickly, so it came back all at once... He tore apart the big and small clods of mud on the little eunuch's body, and put the pieces of paper back together. I dare not look down.
This great eunuch is much more trembling than the little Taoist priest who listened to the wall.
Knowing a lot, the life will not be long, the little Taoist is worried, but it will be a matter of the future: after all, the Holy One has not used him up, so he can't just throw it away.
The chief eunuch is not afraid of death: he loves the Holy Majesty.
As the confidant of the Holy Majesty, the only time the Holy Majesty and the recovered King Yizhong had a disagreement was with him, and he stood by the side: The Holy Majesty and the King Yizhong disagreed about how to treat the Supreme Emperor and Concubine Ling in the future.
The concubine Ling didn't say anything else, she died.
But for the Supreme Emperor, King Yizhong meant to put him under house arrest directly, while the Holy One thought that if the father handed over the power, he would just continue to be honored and raised. Why did he have to do so?It's too ugly to spread.
Now the great eunuch who does whatever the Holy Majesty says... feels that the prince still has a vision!He finished spelling the note and begged to see him directly with a blank face.
It happened that Sheng Sheng was free, and when he saw his confidant enter the door, his expression was not right, so he naturally became suspicious: This confidant has been with him for more than ten years, why hasn't he seen the ups and downs?The thing that can change his face is probably quite tricky.
In fact, where is the breaking news brought by a confidant that can be described in detail?
The Holy Majesty read the crumpled note and remained silent for most of the afternoon.
Today, the Holy One finally understands where the meaning and meaning of the second brother in the past came from!Ling Taifei has a son, the Holy One naturally knows about it.
Concubine Ling might have been able to keep it a secret before, but after the Holy Majesty ascended the throne, too many things were no longer secrets.Concubine Ling gave birth to the youngest brother of the Holy Majesty. He should be around 25 or [-] now, about the same age as the third and fourth princes.
It is precisely because of this son, and this son is smart enough to be loved by the emperor, that the concubine madly poisoned the second brother and his sons... She felt that it would be her turn to get rid of the other sons of the emperor. Her son is up!
Don't look at this matter as aggrieved... In fact, whether it is King Yizhong or Shengshang, they have all been compensated by the Supreme Emperor-not only the concubine has been placed under house arrest, but the two brothers have also received real power. compensate.
At that time, the Supreme Emperor hadn't abdicated yet, and he still took his two sons as his sons... Thinking of this, the Holy Majesty lightly stroked his forehead: After a few years, the Emperor Father sent the younger brother born by Concubine Ling out of the palace.
The Holy Majesty understood this very well: under special circumstances, sending the prince out of the palace was a common practice in previous dynasties.Generally speaking, this is proof that the prince has lost his right to inherit.
In fact, it is not difficult to imagine that this younger brother's background is really "burning hands". He is of the blood of the two Mu families, and his status is quite embarrassing.Not only is he comfortable living outside the palace, but he can also... grow up safely.
Thinking of this, the Holy Majesty couldn't help laughing at himself: Am I the only one who thinks too simply?
If King Yizhong knew what his younger brother was thinking at this time, he would probably just pat him on the shoulder: Father's way of thinking is ever-changing, even in those years when I was crazy, I would be willing to bow down.
And you would never have imagined that the father could put a son on the throne of God, and that he could think of pulling this son down again and replacing him with another son...
In short, the Holy Majesty suffered for most of the day, and how much of the time was purely disgusted, only he knew.
After barely calming down, the Holy Majesty ordered his confidants to prepare pen and ink: Who said that the emperor doesn't need to vent his emotions?Besides, the Holy Majesty can only talk to his second brother about this matter.
After writing the long letter home, His Majesty felt a little more at ease.He ate a bowl of porridge at night...Suddenly he missed Concubine Shu's cooking skills - Concubine Shu's culinary skills were recognized as the number one among concubines, so he left as soon as he said he wanted to, and he went to Concubine Shu's palace.
Today's Majesty is a bit strange: neither happy nor unhappy... Concubine Shu had to secretly remind the maidservant to be careful.
Majesty who was soothed by delicious food really felt a little more comfortable.
Concubine Shu asked at this time: "Your Majesty, do you want to show Lao Qi a concubine?"
The sage said: "Don't worry about the sons and daughters, sir, come out, let's talk about the concubine."
In fact, Concubine Shu thought so too.But... she was also a little bit embarrassed to say, "It was Lao Qi and his wife who came to beg me."
The Holy Majesty couldn't hide his surprise, "Huh?" Can't take it anymore?
The author has something to say: Don't think it's too short, this is the first update.The second one should be in the middle of the night, friends and relatives, let’s watch it tomorrow morning.
Holding his whisk, the little Taoist murmured a scripture to ward off disasters and evil spirits in every corner of the palace, until he finished his daily homework, and then walked out of Lingtai Concubine's territory unhurriedly.
