After laughing, Zuo Juan discussed with Fang Jinglong: "My lord, is our business temporarily suspended? The emperor has been very angry for the past two days, I'm afraid that he will send someone to check on us?"

Fang Jinglong said: "Don't stop, this matter is now sent to the head of the fourth prince, with him in charge, we won't get enough money? It's a pity that the fourth prince is so good, so that the emperor values him. No one else's share,"

Lord Zuo knew that Fang Jinglong was most afraid that such an opportunity would fall into the hands of Chen Guogong, but the people on Chen Guogong's side now also had to listen to the command of the fourth prince.

Fang Jinglong knew that Zuo Juan was thorough, patted him on the shoulder and said earnestly, "Don't worry, as long as the emperor doesn't release Liang Yuqiang's mad dog now, no one will check us, but because of Yifeng, he has committed the emperor's taboo, and the emperor will not let him out this time." ”

Half of the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty are making money, and there are a few Qing officials, and those who are really clean can't get mixed up, only Liang Yuqiang is an exception.

He is not afraid of offending people, and he is poor with a jingle.

Zuo Juan thought for a while, it seemed that except for Liang Yuqiang, there was really no one who would oppose them.

Fang Jinglong and Lord Zuo Juan said a few words, and the time to go to court has arrived, but the bell has not rang for a long time, Fang Jinglong and Zuo Juan returned to the side hall where they were waiting, and then grabbed an official to ask: "Why don't you go to court yet?"

Since the emperor conquered the world, there is no time not to go to court unless he is sick.

The officials in the side hall were also suspicious, and the official who Fang Jinglong grabbed only shook his head: "No one has come out to explain the situation so far." ”

It's just that no one knows why the early dynasty hasn't started, and the early dynasty hasn't started, which means that the emperor didn't come, so where did the emperor go?

At this time, the emperor, who was waiting for hundreds of officials, was meeting a monk in the study of the Yangxin Palace.

The monk is not good-looking, but he can be impressive at first sight, especially because he has a pair of mung bean eyes, and he is very bright when he looks at people and things.

This person is the prince and master who practiced in Huangjue Temple, Yao Guangxiao, the prince of Rongguo, and the Taoist name Daoyan.

The emperor hadn't seen Daoyan for a long time, the two sat facing each other, and the emperor was happy: "You can come to see me, I'm very happy, there is just one thing I want to ask your opinion, what you said about this plague, is it a condemnation of heaven to me." ”

The emperor's difficulty in raising troops was all Dao Yan's encouragement, of course, the emperor also had that thought, and the two hit it off.

Therefore, Dao Yan is a very important person to the emperor, from the attack of Yanjing to Nanjing, Dao Yan has calmed many things and come up with many good ideas.

Let's just say that when Wu Guogong almost beat the emperor back to his hometown, if he gave up, if it wasn't for Dao Yan pulling the emperor's collar and telling the emperor that there was no way back, the emperor might have been a prisoner of defeat by now.

Therefore, the emperor's most trusted person is Dao Yan.

Dao Yan looked at the emperor in front of him with a pair of electric eyes, thinking that he was not the former King Yan now.

You can't call this person a brother to him now, let alone have a little disobedience, he is the Ninety-Five, and if you are a little careless in a word, he will be suspicious of you and even want to kill you.

This is the sorrow of the minister of the dragon, especially a person like him who has been engaged in conspiracy all his life, if you don't speak, the emperor will be suspicious of you.

So he stopped his words in his heart and asked sincerely: "Holy Lord, have you been in power all these years, is it unfair to the world?"

The emperor was stunned for a moment when he asked, and then said: "It is impossible to say that it is all fair, but ask yourself, I have done my best to be fair, especially to the people of the world." ”

Dao Yan nodded, and asked again: "Then from ancient times to the present, which emperor has opened the north-south canal?"

The emperor moved the capital, but the economy still relied on the grain and wealth in the south of the Yangtze River, so he relied heavily on the Beijing-Hangzhou Grand Canal. In order to ensure the smooth flow of the waterway, the dry river section was cleaned up, and a lot of effort was invested in the management and transformation of the Grand Canal, so that the economic interconnection between the north and the south was unimpeded, which was one of the great political achievements.

The emperor was mentioned about his exploits, and said with a light smile: "There is also Emperor Yang of Sui." Qin Shi Huang built the Great Wall, and the credit was the same. ”

"But both of them have ruined their own country. Dao Yan said: "Which emperor has successfully moved the capital, and the Son of Heaven guards the country?" Without waiting for the emperor to answer, Dao Yan said again: "In the prosperous era, who are the emperors who have really cultivated the great ceremony?"

"If you do one of the above things well, you will be the first emperor of the ages, but the saint has done all these things alone, and a person like you is the real pride of the sky, why would God think that he has such a child but want to punish him?"

The emperor's entire eyebrows were stretched out by Dao Yan's words, but he seemed to be in a good mood, but his worries were still there, and he said: "Because that person hasn't found him yet." ”

He didn't name that person, but he knew that he and Dao Yan had a common goal in their hearts.

Dao Yan smiled and said: "Holy Lord, if that person is the true son of heaven, then how can it be you who is sitting on the dragon chair today?" He looked at the emperor with both hands: "You have been in power for all these years, the Quartet has come to congratulate, the country and the people are safe, you are the destiny of heaven." ”

The more the emperor listened, the more correct he became: "But in that case, why does God still condemn the world to the world and cause misery to the souls? Doesn't this mean that I have no way?"

Dao Yan said: "Since the emperor wants to listen to the heavenly machine, then the minister will tell you about the heavenly machine, but is this plague really God's will? People often say that the heavenly machine cannot be revealed, but this plague can be calculated by someone, and the minister also heard that there is more than one person who calculated this plague." "Those doctors who practice medicine, they are good at five luck and six qi, they can predict the impact of abnormal weather on people's lives, this is normal, people can calculate, then it is not a heavenly opportunity, so this plague is not a crime from heaven at all. ”

"Is that really the case?"

Dao Yan said: "If the emperor doesn't believe it, you can listen to the voices of the ministers, if it is really the condemnation of God, then why are some patients cured by the doctors, doesn't this mean that man will conquer the sky? ”

The emperor nodded slightly.

Dao Yan smiled and continued: "What is the way and the way, the emperor, you know that there is a way to make good use of people, so it is the way to be self-proclaimed, I heard that you have a righteous minister, not afraid of life and death, I would rather risk being said to be a god, but also tell you the fact that the plague is coming in advance, I heard that you are concerned about the people of Xinsheji, predicted that there is a little risk, but also risk death to admonish, and I also heard that you have kind people, when the disaster comes, they dare to be the first, unite as one, and work together to protect your city." ”

"If this is a country ruled by a monarch without reason, how can there be such an upright and lovely subject, the minister thinks, you should be the wisest monarch in history. ”

The emperor breathed a sigh of relief after hearing this, pressed his hands on the imperial case, and said solemnly: "Old Yao, I understand what you said." I haven't found that person yet, but I can't afford to mess with myself, and now I'm going to govern my country. ”

He changed me to me, to let Dao Yan know that he is still the original His Royal Highness the Yan King, at least in front of Dao Yan, he is still.

Dao Yan knelt down and clasped his head heavily: "The saint is the confidant of the minister's life, and you, the saint, the minister and the people of the world, are all blessed people." ”

The two looked at each other and smiled again, and trust and appreciation were in their eyes.

At this time, the emperor called the eunuch on duty outside: "Prepare to go to court." ”

Da Liu's father-in-law sang yes in response and went to summon.

Dao Yan saw that the emperor was leaving, so he stood up and looked at the emperor, his expression was very peaceful, with mung bean eyes, nodding and smiling.

Suddenly, the emperor turned around: "How did you get here?"

Dao Yan was stunned for a moment, then mung bean eyes turned around, and smiled: "The minister came on foot, can the saint send someone to send the minister back, the minister's feet are blistered." ”

In the last sentence, he said like a coquettish woman.

The emperor laughed and called the brocade guards guarding the door: "Junyuan, come in and send the Taishi back." ”

Lan Junyuan was dressed in a majestic outfit, approached the hall and knelt on one knee: "The minister obeys the order." ”

The emperor glanced at Lan Junyuan with a smile, and then turned back to Yao Guangxiao and said proudly: "This is the most powerful guard under me, to ensure that you arrive home safe and sound." ”

Dao Yan's little mung bean eyes smiled into a slit, looked at the beautiful man kneeling on the ground, and said in his heart, this guy is Lan Junyuan, he really looks like a dog. (To be continued.) )
