Chapter 0231: The Art of Alchemy
"Your Majesty, the minister is dedicated to Your Majesty, so he just drew it!!"
Zhang Jiao hurriedly argued, the Son of Heaven looked at him, did not speak, smiled, asked Song Dian to put away the map, sat down with Zhang Jiao, and said: "You don't have to be afraid, is it difficult, do you think I am a cruel Son of Heaven?" Will it kill people? ”
"Don't dare!"
"I have been on the throne for ten years, and no people in the Han Dynasty have starved to death, living and working in peace and contentment, but this is the first time I have seen my own country."
"Son of Heaven Shengming!" Zhang Jiao said in a low voice, the Son of Heaven smiled and said, "You bothered to find me, let's say, what do you want?" Hearing the Son of Heaven ask so bluntly, Zhang Jiao's expression gradually became solemn, sat in front of the Son of Heaven, and said: "Your Majesty, the minister only wants to worry about the king, and he doesn't dare to ask for anything. ”
"Oh, what will you do to share my worries?"
"Your Majesty doesn't know, the minister's teacher, Nanhua, at the age of more than 370, he is proficient in the art of alchemy, he has apprenticed to Xu Xian, he is his disciple behind closed doors, the minister is not talented, but he is a disciple of three generations, he knows a little about alchemy, and he can refine the longevity pill to increase the life of Jiazi!" Zhang Jiao swore that the Son of Heaven was stunned, and looked at Zhang Jiao suspiciously, his face indifferent.
"Respect the teacher, at the age of more than 370? I don't know when he was born? ”
"He never spoke of him, when he was the first emperor"
"Then do you know why Xu Xian went and didn't return?"
"The minister naturally knows that the first emperor is tyrannical and tyrannical, and the immortals are unwilling to practice the elixir for him, so he retreats to the immortal island of Penglai and cultivates with peace of mind."
"Hahaha, are you willing to make an alchemy for me?" The Son of Heaven asked with a smile, Zhang Jiao nodded, and said: "That's right, Your Majesty, the minister knows this technique, and Your Majesty is a sage, governing the country and the people, and has immeasurable merits, and the minister is willing to make alchemy for Your Majesty!" ”
"Hahaha" The Son of Heaven was still smiling, Song Dian on the side looked at Zhang Jiao with some surprise, and then looked at the Son of Heaven, the Son of Heaven squinted, looked at him, and asked, "How much money does it cost to practice a pill?" Zhang Jiao shook his head and said: "You don't need a penny, Your Majesty, as long as you can give the minister a few good ships, the minister is willing to lead people to Penglai to get medicinal materials for Your Majesty and refine the elixir." ”
"Or, the minister can directly ask the ancestor for the elixir."
"Enzhen is a little tired, you go back to rest first, I will summon you tomorrow", the Son of Heaven said calmly, Zhang Jiao sighed helplessly, and said: "The minister does not seek fame and fortune, not for money, if His Majesty does not believe it, the minister can borrow a boat and go to Penglai!" After speaking, he arched his hand towards the Son of Heaven, got up, and left.
The Son of Heaven watched him leave coldly, looked at Song Dian on the side, and asked with a smile, "Do you believe his nonsense?" Song Dian was stunned for a moment and asked, "Could it be that Your Majesty doesn't believe it?" The Son of Heaven sneered and said, "If there is this Dan, at this time, I will definitely not be able to sit on this seat, maybe I will come to meet the ancestor Shizong, I naturally don't believe it."
Song Dian lowered his head and said nothing.
The Son of Heaven ordered him to step back, and then ordered Xun You to come in, put the map on the case, and looked at it seriously, Xun You looked at it for a while, and said: "This Fang Shi is not only deceiving, the drawing is still good." The Son of Heaven laughed and asked, "Why, Gongda, why do you look down on Fang Shi so much?" ”
"I also hope that Your Majesty will always remember the affairs of Emperor Sejong, and the Fang Shi will mislead the country!" Xun You frowned, and said meticulously, the Son of Heaven nodded, lowered his head, continued to look, and said, "I, I also want to personally travel all over this Han River."
"We are here, this is Youzhou, here is the indigenous people of Liaodong, here is Murong Xianbei? The land of projectiles, Ding Ling, Qiang" The Son of Heaven muttered, the territory outside the Han Dynasty, Zhang Jiao's painting was extremely sloppy, and he couldn't even see a generalization, caressing these areas, for some reason, the Son of Heaven's heart seemed to be burning with a flame, burning.
"Your Majesty Hexin Erzhou has just been established, and it is not appropriate to expand the territory"
Xun You broke through the mind of the Son of Heaven in one mouth, and when he saw through his thoughts, the Son of Heaven looked a little angry, and asked coldly: "When did I say that I would expand the territory?" Xun You hurriedly lowered his head and bowed, the Son of Heaven ignored him, continued to look at these maps, and after a while with Zhang Jiao today, the long-term worry in his heart disappeared in an instant.
No matter how the Book of Heaven records, now, Zhang Jiao has no threat to him, life and death are completely in his own hands, the troubled times contained in the Book of Heaven seem to be gone forever, the Son of Heaven is naturally happy in his heart, but, looking at the map, he still has a little jealousy in his heart, this guy is either a great sage who cares about the people of the world, or a traitor who is very deep in the city!
However, when he heard the words of Penglai Xiandao and the like, the Son of Heaven remembered something again, what had been recorded in the Book of Heaven, Karasuma Xianbei Dongyi Biography, Karasuma is equivalent to the attachment of the Great Han, and he did not dare not obey the call of the Great Han, Dong Zhuo was in Youzhou, he was able to command the large and small tribes, and after the collapse of Xianbei and a small part of the living n, they were more honest.
Fuyu, Goguryeo, Joseon, Wofu, Dongyi, Rulou, Chenhan, Waren, etc., the Son of Heaven at this moment, the ambition in his heart was burning, he squinted his eyes, the Book of Heaven had already been deeply recorded in his mind, thought for a moment, and said: "The Wa people are in the southeast sea of the Belt Fang, and Yishan Island is the country. ”
The Son of Heaven was thinking, and Zhang Jiao also returned to the post station worriedly, of course, after seeing the Son of Heaven, his treatment was much better, and the officials also allowed him to go out, and treated him with a lot of courtesy, but he still couldn't be happy, the Son of Heaven's attitude was changeable, making him unpredictable, until now, he didn't understand what the Son of Heaven thought of Taiping Dao and himself.
"Heh, your Yuan family is a great sect of Confucianism, and a family of poetry and books, so why should it be like this?"
He Xiu said coldly.
Yuan Shu knelt down in front of him, bowed again, and said, "In the past few months, I have understood that only the ram is the real Confucianism!" Hearing Yuan Shu say this, He Xiu nodded and said, "Even so, I won't teach!" Yuan Shu asked helplessly: "I am sincere in wanting to learn, why does Master He refuse again and again!" ”
"Hey, your uncle Yuan Kui insulted my children ten years ago, so I won't teach you!"
Yuan Shu was stunned, thought for a moment, and then said: "I am now studying with my uncle, if I can worship under He Shi, wouldn't it be that He Shi's academic strength is with his uncle?" Great benefit to the teacher! ”
"Hey, I'm better than him, so why prove it?"
Yuan Shu got up helplessly, bowed, and walked out of the study dejectedly, just came out, Ma Jun and the little fat man outside the door hurriedly asked, "How is it?" Shi Jun agreed? Yuan Shu shook his head, lowered his head, the little fat man frowned, and said, "Or, I'll go in and persuade him?" ”
Ma Jun shook his head and said, "Master He is stubborn, it's hard to talk about persuasion!" Why don't you bow down to the public who hears it? ”
Hearing Ma Jun say this, Yuan Shu thought about it, quickly shook his head in horror, and said, "Worship him as a teacher, it's better to worship Wang Fu!" At least you can eat a full meal", Ma Jun was a little annoyed, tilted his head, and ignored him no longer.
The little fat man squinted his eyes, grinned, and muttered a few more words in Yuan Shu's ear, Yuan Shu heard it, looked at him with some hesitation, the little fat man nodded at him, Yuan Shu took a breath of cold air, and said a little loudly: "Okay, I think Master He is afraid of my Yuan family, for fear that if I accept me as an apprentice, I will be angry with the Yuan family, so I don't accept it, I still learn from Zuo Chuan Guliang."
"Hey, how can you say that, He Shi, He Shi stands up to the sky, He has ever been afraid, it must not be what you think."
"If he is not afraid, why won't he take me as an apprentice? The Yuan family is powerful, and he is worried and afraid, of course."
The door of the "touch" study was pushed open suddenly, and the furious He Xiu slowly walked out.
"Shaft! Who did you just say is worried and afraid?? ”
