The ritual of welcoming the goddess lasted from the fourth watch to the fifth watch.

From the moment the ceremony began, a golden light surged up in the hall, and the golden light shone like daylight in the hall.

On the fifth watch, the sky outside the hall was bright, and it was gradually reflected in the main hall, and the golden light in the main hall was suppressed.

Gong E, the eunuch who was hiding in the corner of the main hall and holding a bronze mirror, lowered her weak arms and quietly withdrew from the hall.

The golden light slowly dissipated.

The officials looked at the place where Zhao Heng was.

Everything is the same as just now, Zhao Heng is sitting cross-legged, the crown prince Zhao is benefiting, and the queen Liu E is also sitting cross-legged.

The four dancing Taoists also sat down separately.

The officials didn't see the goddess, they only saw that in front of Zhao Heng, there was a gold plate inlaid with various precious gems.

The gold plate is dazzling and brilliant.

In the belly of the golden plate, a cloud of white mist floats.

Under the white mist, there was a green-skinned gourd standing quietly.

One of the Taoists made a mockery to Zhao Heng, and congratulated him with kind eyebrows: "Congratulations to Brother Dao, congratulations to Brother Dao, Brother Dao's heart of seeking the Tao touches the heavens, the goddess descends to be blessed, and Brother Dao has the hope of longevity." ”

"Congratulations to Brother Dao!"

The other three Taoists all made a joke.

The officials gave a salute and congratulated in unison, "Congratulations to the officials!" ”

When Zhao Heng heard this, he opened his eyebrows and smiled: "Okay, good, the goddess blesses, I feel inexplicable, he will soar to the immortal realm every day, and he will definitely thank you." ”

After a pause, Zhao Heng said regretfully: "It's a pity that I couldn't meet the goddess...... As the supreme in the world, I should do my best to be a landlord and be hospitable. ”

The Taoist who was sitting under Zhao Heng heard the words and said with a smile: "The gods are ethereal and elusive. Brother Dao can win the favor of gods and men and give blessings, and he is already envious of others. ”

The Taoist hesitated for a moment, and glanced at the other three Taoists, all with a wry smile on their faces.

"I have been cultivating for decades, but I haven't been able to win the favor of gods and men......"

Without contrast, there is no harm.

There is a comparison of the experiences of the four Taoists, and Zhao Heng's heart is more comfortable than eating ginseng fruit.

He beckoned to Zhou Huaizheng and eagerly instructed, "Go and help me see what blessings the goddess has descended." ”

Zhou Huaizheng bowed, came to the gold plate, shook the dust and swept away the fog, revealing the true face of the green skin gourd.

Zhou Huaizheng was overjoyed when he saw this, "The official family is an elixir!" ”

"Elixir?"

Zhao Heng said happily: "Go quickly, take the golden jade vessel and put out the elixir." ”

Zhao Heng has been cultivating for many years, and he has been favored by gods.

When this happens, he doesn't need to ask anyone to know what to do.

Zhou Huaizheng took the golden jade vessel and took out the green skin gourd.

After opening the green skin gourd, a strong medicinal fragrance filled the inside.

Dripping, six red elixir pills rolled down into the jade plate.

Zhao Heng stared at the elixir in the jade plate, and a wave of greed flashed in his eyes.

After a long time, he forcibly held back the greed in his heart, and said quietly: "The road to immortality is long, I have become an immortal alone, and after flying to the immortal realm, it is inevitable that I will be lonely ......and widowed."

Zhao Heng's words were not exhausted.

But the hundred officials had already heard the meaning of his words.

This is to share the elixir.

The officials were looking forward to it, hoping that Zhao Heng could give them a pill of elixir.

Although they knew that the elixir did not have their share, their hearts were still full of hope.

Really.

Zhao Heng began to divide the elixir.

"Give a pill of elixir to the prince......"

"Give an elixir to the queen ......"

"Give an elixir to ...... Kou Aiqing ......"

"Give a pill of elixir to Ding Aiqing......"

"Give an elixir to the Eighth Emperor Brother ......"

When Zhao Heng divided the elixir and divided the profit to Kou Zhun's head, he was a little hesitant.

Clear-eyed people can see a little bit of the way from the order of Zhao Heng's elixir.

The order of this represents the order of their status in Zhao Heng's heart.

The elixir was distributed to the five of them, and the five of them bowed down to thank them.

After Kou Zhun got the elixir, his eyes fell on Liu E.

After Ding Wei got the elixir, his eyes fell on Kou Zhun.

After Liu E got the elixir, her eyes fell on Kou Zhun and Ding Wei.

Zhao Yingying held the elixir and looked at everyone curiously.

Among the five people who were given the elixir, only the Eighth Emperor Brother in Zhao Heng's mouth stared ahead without squinting.

The eighth emperor brother in Zhao Heng's mouth, named Zhao Yuanyan, was named King Peng, entered the Taibao, and his official residence was superb.

The factor has a virtuous name, and he is the eighth son of Taizong, so the people of the people call him the 'Eight Kings'.

Zhao Yuanyan is only forty years old, with square eyebrows, goat's beard, and a python robe and jade belt, which is quite majestic.

The people who share the elixir have different expressions.

People who don't have a share of the elixir don't look very good.

Li Di's gaze at Zhao Heng was a little sharp.

The three Zaifu, the other two have elixirs, but I don't have any?

Are you looking down on me?

Zhao Heng avoided Li Di's gaze, and couldn't wait to take the last elixir from the jade plate presented by Zhou Huaizheng, and swallowed it.

Then he looked at Li Di.

It seemed to tell him not to worry about it, it's gone.

Li Di looked at Zhao Heng with a little more resentment.

The young crown prince Zhao Yingying took the expressions of both of them into his eyes, he obediently handed out the jade plate in his hand, and said, "Ben...... The elixir of the main palace is given to ...... Give ...... to the gentleman"

When the Manchu civil and military heard this, they were all stunned.

Li Di retracted his gaze at Zhao Heng, and bowed to Zhao Heng, "The prince has the filial piety of respecting the teacher, and the minister feels inexplicable. Today's court meeting is enough to get the prince's pure heart. ”

Seeing this, the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty saluted one after another: "The prince is benevolent and filial, congratulations for the official family, and congratulations for the country." ”

Seeing this, Zhao Heng pursed his lips, not knowing whether to be happy or sad.

The son compared him to him, and it stands to reason that he should be happy.

But he was not happy at all, and even a little unhappy.

After the Manchu Dynasty's civil and military congratulations.

Wang Shu suddenly left work.

"Kick off the official family, the minister Wang Shu has a book to play."

Zhao Heng frowned.

What a mess at this time?

Don't you see that my heart is not happy?

"Speak!"

Zhao Heng was not happy in his heart, and his speech became a little stiffer.

Wang Shu took out a book from his cuff, handed it to Zhou Huaizheng, who greeted him, and then said: "The minister impeached Wu Xian, the servant of the imperial history, and committed fifteen major crimes such as corrupting the law, conniving with his brother, and murdering for money. ”

Zhou Huaizheng handed Wang Shu's fold to Zhao Heng, Zhao Heng opened the fold, and after counting Wu Xian's crimes, he handed the fold to Liu E, frowned and said, "Above my court, there are really such wicked people?" ”

"The minister advised the doctor Wang Zeng and impeached the imperial historian Wu Xian......"

"Minister......

“……”

As soon as Zhao Heng's voice fell, seven or eight officials led by Wang Zeng, the doctor of Zuo, went out to impeach Wu Xian.

Zhao Heng was also stunned when he saw this scene.

Aside from Wang Shu, Kou Zhun's son-in-law, count it separately.

Wang Zeng was quite weighty in Zhao Heng's heart, and was once cited by Zhao Heng as a confidant.
