Chapter 288 One Step Away(2/2)
Huang Jin glanced at Li Changzhou and smiled in a friendly manner. He was the one who ordered the eunuch to let Li Changzhou in just now.
Li Changzhou didn't speak, but according to the procedure, he let out a long breath.
With an inaudible hissing sound, Emperor Jiajing exhaled all his breath and slowly opened his eyes.
"Your Majesty." Li Changzhou saluted.
"If you are not reading in the inner court, what are you doing here?" Emperor Jiajing was in a good mood. Huang Jin wiped his forehead with a warm handkerchief.
"Something happened in the inner court." Li Changzhou only talked about the female official in the inner court.
Emperor Jiajing looked at Huang Jin: "Let Shao Yuanjie and Tao Zhongwen go."
"I'm going to deliver the order right now." Huang Jin handed the handkerchief to the palace maid, stepped back a few steps, then turned around and left the Nuan Pavilion to give the order.
"Sit." Emperor Jiajing pointed to the tuanfu opposite him.
When Li Changzhou sat down, he said: "The Moon Palace is indeed a heavenly palace. I am always diligent in the Moon Palace. I breathed in the palace for half an hour, but there was no movement."
"Your Majesty, after eating something and then doing the exercises, it will have some weak effect." Li Changzhou said with a smile.
Emperor Jiajing pondered for a while and said to himself: "I ate some when I came back from the Moon Palace before, and I did feel a little warm when I was doing the exercises."
It may be true or it may be false. Ordinary people sometimes have sudden heat in their stomachs.
"Your Majesty is so diligent and talented, and becoming an immortal is just around the corner."
"I still need real people to help me."
"I already have some ideas about practicing Taoism."
Emperor Jiajing was overjoyed, but when he saw Li Changzhou's expression pensive, he calmed down and said, "Speak directly if you have something to say. What's the difficulty?"
There was no confidence and calmness in his voice that he used to have. This involved becoming an immortal, which he cared about most, and it was a matter of spiritual cultivation. Even the emperor's heart was disturbed.
"Then let me tell you straight." Li Changzhou paused, "Does your Majesty know why you can't practice Taoism?"
Emperor Jiajing did not speak.
Li Changzhou continued: "Your Majesty's dragon veins are added to your body and you are invulnerable to all laws. A single imperial edict can turn Taoists into ordinary people."
"I also noticed it."
"If Your Majesty wants to practice Taoism, the only way is to let the dragon vein escape."
"Are you asking me to abdicate the throne?"
"Has Your Majesty ever seen any of the royal family members enter Taoism?"
Emperor Jiajing frowned: "I not only want this country, but also immortality. Is there any way to do it?"
"We have a way to separate the dragon veins from His Majesty, but we don't have a clear idea of how to do it yet," Li Changzhou said.
This is nonsense.
Taoist priests with a little knowledge all know this, they just don't know how to do it.
But this was the first time Emperor Jiajing heard this statement.
How could a Taoist priest living in a feudal dynasty, whose power was suppressed by the Dragon Vein, dare to say in front of Emperor Jiajing, "Your Majesty, if you want to learn Taoism, you must not become an emperor or a member of the Zhu family."
Forget it, a reckless ascetic might open his mouth.
Then Emperor Jiajing would ask how to separate the dragon veins and how to be an emperor and practice Taoism at the same time.
Can't do it? Deceive the emperor and destroy the nine tribes. No, this is the Ming Dynasty, which wants to destroy the ten tribes.
Li Changzhou is not afraid.
Summoning the wind and dancing in the snow, soaring into the clouds and flying to the moon, catching fire to become a dragon, killing evil dragons, breathing in and out, these seemingly useless actions have solidly won the trust of Emperor Jiajing.
Also, Emperor Jiajing had nothing to do with him.
The worst case scenario is to pat your butt and "teleport" away. If you want to look more handsome, you can recite a poem by Du Fu before leaving - The emperor cannot get on the ship, so he calls himself an immortal in wine.
Although he rarely drinks.
After chatting for a while, Li Changzhou said goodbye and left, continuing to go back to the inner court to read a book. He was pressed for time now, so it would be fine if he talked to Yang Qinglan instead of reading the book.
After he left, Emperor Jiajing was about to continue breathing, but suddenly he remembered and passed some food over.
While they were eating, a eunuch came up to Huang Jin who was serving him and whispered a few words.
Before today, Emperor Jiajing could not hear clearly what they were saying, but today he could vaguely hear it.
He took a mouthful of Ganoderma lucidum paste, glanced at the distance between himself and Huang Jin, and began to think about what Li Changzhou said about dragon veins.
He must have the country.
Without a country, what’s the point of immortality?
Jiangshan does not represent the country, but status and power. He wants no one above him, and there is no so-called sky falling, he is the sky.
If this can't be the case, what's the point of living forever?
But only the country can't live forever, and he can't accept it either!
I just hope that Li Changzhou can think of a way to have the best of both worlds.
After listening to the report, Huang Jin walked up to Emperor Jiajing, and while bringing him some dishes from a distance, he said: "Master, Master Shao and Master Tao are here."
"Is the matter resolved?"
"Yes." Huang Jin hesitated for a moment and then said, "Many people died in the harem. Empress Dowager Zhang, Concubine Zhuang, Concubine Chang, Concubine Kang, Concubine He, Concubine Li Jing passed away, and more than three hundred people are still alive.
Eunuchs, maids, some cats, dogs and birds.”
Emperor Jiajing stopped his chopsticks: "Xuemei (cat) and lion cat (cat) -"
"You two little masters are fine."
Emperor Jiajing put down his chopsticks, rinsed his mouth, wiped his mouth, and leaned back: "Let Shao Yuanjie and the others come in."
By the time Shao Yuanjie and Tao Zhongwen entered the Nuan Pavilion, everything had been packed away, and nearly a hundred dishes, each of which only took a few bites, had been removed.
"Your Majesty, the evil spirits have been killed by Tao Zhenren." Shao Yuanjie said with his hands in hand.
"The real person really has magical powers!" Emperor Jiajing was very happy. There was evil in the harem, so he didn't dare to go.
It was indeed Tao Zhongwen who solved the matter this time. Shao Yuanjie was in poor health long ago and would have died in 1539. He survived until 1540 by relying on dragon veins.
He intended to let Tao Zhongwen take over his position in Emperor Jiajing's heart.
Just now in the harem, he lent the power of the dragon vein to Tao Zhongwen, so that he could perform divination in the palace, find the true form of the zombie fungus, and destroy it directly.
Huang Jin sent eunuchs and maids to check on the situation in the harem to confirm whether the evil spirits had really been exterminated.
Emperor Jiajing no longer cared about this matter. He pondered for a while, told Shao Yuanjie and Tao Zhongwen what Li Changzhou said about dragon veins, and asked them for their opinions.
The two looked at each other.
"Your Majesty," Shao Yuanjie bent down and said, "I have something to report to Your Majesty!"
"Please tell me, real person."
"Your Majesty cannot practice Taoism because of the dragon vein, but the dragon vein is also the key to becoming an immortal!"
Emperor Jiajing looked at him and asked slowly: "The key to becoming an immortal?"
"Yes! If you want to become an immortal, you must have dragon veins!" Shao Yuanjie said urgently, "In the past few days, I have been checking Li Changzhou's identity. It is impossible for a cultivator who is not as powerful as me and is so young to
Without an origin, the person who is the descendant of Duke Dong is simply fake!"
"Fake?"
"It's fake. Pindao has checked it out."
"If it's fake, then who is he?"
Shao Yuanjie said: "The world is so big, there are only a few people who can have such magical power.
"Lan Ling smiled and became lustful, Wu Cheng'en went to the West to seek enlightenment, the Goddess of Gushe is a woman, Li Shizhen has excellent medical skills but lacks magical power, and he is working in the Imperial Hospital, so it can't be him.
"In addition, there are some masters from the Demonic Sect, but the only ones who have such methods are the Emperor and Queen of the Divine Sect, and these two people happen to be husband and wife!"
"Emperor of Heaven and Queen of Heaven." Emperor Jiajing narrowed his eyes slightly.
Outside the capital, the demonic sects and evil spirits lurking everywhere looked at the capital at this time. A golden dragon vein was circling in the Forbidden City. Under the vast dragon energy, they could not even breathe, let alone the magic power.
"Just now Tao Zhenren performed a divination, and the divination showed that the two people are indeed the emperors and queens of the divine religion."
Emperor Jiajing looked at Tao Zhongwen.
Tao Zhongwen was different from Shao Yuanjie in that he didn't like to talk much, and he just bowed his head.
"Your Majesty!" Shao Yuanjie shouted, "Those two are only one step away from becoming immortals, and they are here to seize the dragon's veins!"
Emperor Jiajing remembered that Li Changzhou had indeed said that he was still one step away from becoming an immortal.
