Chapter 125: Picked up a Laoshan Taoist priest
The next day, Guan Shanyue got up early in the morning, and before he finished washing, Xu Guangqi sent a map that he had copied overnight, and the site selected by everyone yesterday was carefully marked out by him with cinnabar. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
Guan Shanyue hastily eaten, Zhao Ruixue and Qin Xiaoman personally served him to change into court clothes, he wiped his mouth, stepped on the jade horse with the treasure map on his back, and rushed towards the Guanghua Hall of Tianning City under the escort of more than a dozen personal soldiers.
When there is still a mile away from the palace gate, Guan Shanyue dismounted and walked, he was a frequent visitor of Emperor Chongzhen, the door was famous, and he put it into the palace after the brocade guard checked the waist card.
Ordinary people are not allowed to enter the palace without being called, and Guan Shanyue's personal soldiers are familiar with the palace guards, and they are all invited to the gatehouse to drink tea.
Guan Shanyue had just walked into Tianning City, and after walking less than two hundred meters inside, she heard a wail from outside the Guanghua Gate from a distance. He has not changed his habit of watching the excitement in this life, and today he is going to Guanghua Hall again, and he can't help but speed up his pace.
Walking a hundred steps away from Guanghua Gate, I saw a middle-aged Taoist priest with a red eye and beard, a deep and broad face, and was served by two powerful eunuchs with water and fire sticks in turn.
Wang Chengen, who was wearing a python suit, stood aside, saliva flying and pulling the throat of the male duck and shouting to the side to beat him to death.
Guan Shanyue didn't know why Emperor Chongzhen was competing with a Taoist priest, so he walked a few steps outside Guanghua Gate and coughed, bowed to Wang Chengen, and asked, "Princess, where did the Taoist priest come from in Tianning City this day?" ”
In private, although the two of them are called brothers, in order not to arouse the suspicion of Emperor Chongzhen, the two dare not get too close in front of everyone.
Wang Chengen turned his back to Guan Shanyue, and he saw him when he spoke, and hurriedly returned the salute, "Hey, Lord Guan is here, it's rude." This bull-nosed old Taoist is called Zhang Zechang, who claims to be from Laoshan Mountain, with the name of Xuanmiao Zhenren, and he is to come up and offer blessings to the saint. It's just that he didn't go out and didn't look at the yellow calendar, today is the death day of the Emperor of the Apocalypse, and the saint is burning incense in the palace to worship, who will he beat if he doesn't beat him? ”
As he spoke, he walked to Guan Shanyue's side, lowered his voice in his ear, and whispered: "Brother, let me tell you, the 'Immortal Fang Linglu' that the first emperor ate before his death is the water steamed from steamed rice soup, so in addition to Wei Zhongxian and the Hakka family, Empress Yi'an hates the Taoist priests of the Quanzhen Sect the most. Of course, this is all thanks to Zhang Tianshi's help. ”
Guan Shanyue has been busy lately, and when she heard about Xizong's death date, she found that the time had come to August 22 unconsciously.
It's just that he dialed it so little, Guan Shanyue was even more confused, and couldn't bear to pull him to the hidden corner behind the Guanghua Gate, and asked suspiciously: "Didn't the Holy Lord let Zhang Xianyong and Zhang Tianshi lead the world's Taoist affairs?" If he doesn't stop it, why is he fanning the flames? ”
Wang Chengen smiled treacherously, he happened to hear Emperor Chongzhen talk about the grievances between the Zhengyi faction and the Quanzhen faction in the past few days, and said teasingly: "Brother, it is true that Zhang Tianshi leads the world, but you don't want to think about what his title is. And Zhang Zechang is from the Laoshan faction, which is a branch of the Quanzhen Longmen faction. The two factions have been rivals for thousands of years, and the hatred between them is so deep that it is impossible to wash away even if they gather the rivers of Kyushu. Zhang Tianshi, this is the head of the Shangqing faction of the Zhengyi faction. ”
Guan Shanyue suddenly realized, and remembered that he had begged Zhang Tianshi several times to help him purify the cinnabar, all of which had been prevaricated by him, and said secretly in his heart: "Since that Taoist priest dares to come to the palace to offer pills, he should have some real talents." These Taoist priests can also be called the pioneers of chemistry, and it is a pity that they were killed like this. ”
Thinking of this, he made up his mind to save this Laoshan Taoist priest. He took out the 50,000 taels of silver tickets that he had been carrying for half a month from his arms and stuffed it into Wang Chengen's hand through the cover of his sleeve, squeezed his hand vigorously, raised his head and said casually: "Brother Wang, it seems that they, who pay attention to quiet and inactive cultivators, are not indisputable with the world. This is the dividend of the first half of the year sent by the Dacheng ticket number in the capital, and the world is chaotic, some are less, and the old brother will take care of some more. If you want to use the money, send someone to take this silver ticket to the city Dacheng ticket number acceptance. Brother, what does the saint mean, is it really just to beat the stick to death? ”
The 50,000 taels of dividends sent by Wang Chengen from Dacheng ticket number, he originally wanted to keep quiet and use it to build the city, but at this time, he sent it out lightly, and he couldn't help but feel a pain in his flesh.
Wang Chengen took out the five thousand taels of silver tickets, he didn't expect Guan Shanyue to really fulfill the promise of the day, and excitedly stuffed the fifty thousand taels of silver tickets to his chest. What kind of person is he, what he has been doing all day long is to observe the emperor's errands, he saw Guan Shanyue's thoughts at a glance, and said with a smile: "Brother Guan, you are simply a timely rain, last time my brother was excited to dedicate all that bit of belongings to the Lord of Long Live, and now I am tight, but I will be disrespectful to this dividend brother." However, the elder brother misses the kindness of others the most, and he will definitely repay the elder brother tenfold and hundredfold in the future. In fact, Long Live didn't say that he wanted his life, he just wanted to beat him a few boards to get angry. If my brother keeps it and it's useful, I'll have him sent to you in a moment. ”
Guan Shanyue couldn't ask for this, nodded hurriedly, and said, "Then thank you brother." ”
Wang Chengen waved his hand, leaned into Guan Shanyue's ear and whispered: "Send the Buddha to the west, brother, let's do a full set of plays, you have to cooperate with me so much, then Zhang Zechang will definitely be dead set on you." ”
When the two returned to Guanghua Gate, Wang Chengen coughed lightly, and his feet swung an inner figure.
The two lazy young eunuchs looked back and were stunned, not understanding how the prince used the set of court staff on this unpopular Taoism.
However, the two of them even had the strength to feed, jumped up, and waved the water and fire stick to greet Zhang Zechang's body playfully.
Although the water and fire stick did not have barbs, with the whirring wind, Zhang Zechang, who was still beaten, died and came back to life.
Zhang Zechang can be regarded as pouring eight generations of blood mold, he was originally the Daoji of Laizhou Mansion, and he worked hard to refine a furnace of Fushou Dan, and he came and went to Emperor Chongzhen in a hurry.
It is said that this is a good example of loyalty and patriotism, and Emperor Chongzhen should be praised lavishly. Nostalgia is bad because his luck is too bad, and the timing of the sacrifice is wrong.
Zhang Zechang's buttocks were still red and swollen just now, and now the skin is open. He now regrets coming to this world, he can still use qigong to support him at the beginning, but now the breath at the dantian has long been dispersed, and he can only do it.
Rao is two young eunuchs, waving the water and fire stick weighing four or five catties back and forth dozens of times, and after a beating, his arm gradually became sore, and he secretly complained in his heart.
Guan Shanyue walked around Zhang Zechang in a circle, kicked Zhang Zechang who was wailing with her foot, and pretended to have no intention of asking: "Hey, hey, old Tao, will you refine cinnabar, I lack a person who refines cinnabar." ”
Zhang Zechang was beaten to death, this words were like the sound of heaven, he couldn't help but squint his eyes, and happened to see the rhino horn belt plate used by the second-grade master, hugged Guan Shanyue's thigh, and said busily: "Help, adult, if you fight again, the villain will really die." That refining cinnabar is the basic skill of Taoist alchemy, and the villain is very skillful. ”
Wang Chengen wasted no time in making a "hmm", a color flew over, and the two little eunuchs saw that they were found to be lazy, and in a panic, the strength in their hands was even stronger than just now.
Zhang Zechang was about to faint in pain, crying and screaming: "Ouch, I'm a mother!" Adults help, the little old man is willing to be a cow and a horse for you, adults help! ”
Guan Shanyue was waiting for this sentence, seeing that the fight was almost over, for fear that the play would be done, and if the fight continued, someone would die, so he arched his hand at Wang Chengen and said: "Princess, Guan Mou's request for this Taoist priest is really useful, can you let Guan Mou go in and ask for personal favors for him like a saint?" ”
Wang Chengen pretended to be embarrassed, and said a bunch of difficult things, only until Guan Shanyue took out two ingots of silver and stuffed them into his hands, and then took out a handful of broken silver and stuffed them into the hands of the two little eunuchs, and he let him in.
It's just a little-known little eunuch, how can Emperor Chongzhen disobey. immediately gave Zhang Zechang to Guan Shanyue.
Guan Shanyue stayed in the Guanghua Hall to discuss the construction of the city with Emperor Chongzhen, and Emperor Chongzhen was interested when he saw the spread out map, and refused to let him go.
had to aggrieved Wang Chengen to run to Guanghuamen again, he was also angry, anyway, what he did on weekdays was to run errands for Emperor Chongzhen, and today he got 50,000 taels of silver for nothing, and he went to play Zhang Zechang.
At the gate of Guanghua, the two little eunuchs had already stopped the board, counted the broken silver in their hands, and secretly ran out at night with a smile and went to the tavern in the city to get drunk.
Wang Chengen pretended not to hear, pointed at Zhang Zechang who was lying on the bench and scolded: "You bull-nosed Taoist priest is a good blessing, if you hadn't met Master Guan today, they are just ordinary eunuchs who have not received professional training, and they are all brute strength, and if they are replaced by brocade guards, I am afraid that your kid would have been killed long ago." ”
Zhang Zechang is very grateful, he is not asking for anything to survive, after hearing that he was given to Guan Shanyue as a slave by the current saint, although he was not angry in his heart, he did not express it.
After Wang Chengen sent the two young eunuchs to carry Zhang Zechang to the Daning Academy of Sciences to find Wu Youke for treatment, he was also very curious about the construction of the city, for fear of missing something, so he trotted back to Guanghua Palace.
The hustle and bustle of Guanghua Gate returned to silence as if nothing had happened.
