Chapter 761: Seeking Others Is Better Than Seeking Yourself (II)

The next day, before the change of shift, the jailer came again and asked, "What else is there to serve?" "It seems that I have tasted the sweetness and is much more attentive.

Mo nodded, handed him a note, and said, "It's damp here, you go to my house and get a few furs." ”

"Hey, okay......" The jailer glanced at the number on it, it was two hundred taels again, and quickly took it and put it in his arms, and said happily: "You can bear with it for the time being, and I will send it to you in the evening." ”

Half an hour later, Shen Mingchen and others received the secret letter, and after concocting it in the same way, they saw a line of small characters emerge: 'Li Shizhen', the three of them suddenly realized, yes, why didn't they think of this great god? At this time, one Li Shizhen is more effective than a hundred lobbyists.

But Li Shizhen's whereabouts are erratic, where to find it? Half a day later, news came from Jinyiwei's side that the emperor was also looking for Li Shizhen, and he had already found out that he was collecting medicine in the area of Longhu Mountain in Jiangxi, but it is estimated that Li Shizhen's character, since he was permanently expelled by the emperor, I am afraid that he will never come back.

Now the quiet safety can make him change his mind. Without further ado, Shen Mingchen volunteered to take the fastest horse in Tongda to Longhu Mountain in Jiangxi Province for help.

In fact, Shen Mingchen can also use the official post, because the management of the post road in this era is extremely chaotic, and anyone can get the compatibility of the military department and enjoy the free treatment of food, lodging and travel, but because of this, the imperial post has become very unreliable, and various situations are frequent, and it is very easy to make mistakes. On the contrary, the Tongda Carriage and Horse Shop, which was run by the Cao Gang, was very popular among merchants and people because of its well-organized and efficient guilds, which surpassed the official post office in terms of reliability and speed.

Even the official post station's proud '800 miles expedited' has been surpassed by Tongda, as long as you can stand it, Tongda can make you travel thousands of miles a day. Saving people is like fighting fire, Shen Mingchen couldn't think about it so much, and ran directly to Jiangxi as fast as possible.

Before the gate of the fifteenth day of the first lunar month was closed, the group returned to the capital, and it took only nine days to take it, which can be called a miracle.

However, these nine days of running around also made Shen Mingchen almost exhausted, and as soon as he saw Yu Yin and the others who came out, he fell from the horse.

Yu Yin and the others were shocked, but it was too late to rescue. It was too late, it was too fast, and I saw an apricot-yellow figure, swept down from a horse behind, and a light swallow grabbed Shen Mingchen's belt, and at this time his face was only three inches from the ground, and it was dangerous.

Only then did everyone see that it was an old Taoist wearing an apricot yellow gossip robe, a purple gold view on his head, and a light cloud on his feet...... But the plan is not Li Shizhen's image.

Yu Yin hurriedly stepped forward to take over Shen Mingchen, and Wang Yin said to the old man: "Dare to ask the name of the high surname?" ”

"Poor Road Dragon Tiger Mountain Zhang Guoxiang." Lao Dao smiled faintly and said politely: "On the way to Beijing, I met Brother Shen and Mr. Li, and walked here with them." ”

"It turned out that the Heavenly Master was coming, and he was disappointed." Wang Yin was taken aback, and hurriedly bowed down. Zhang Guoxiang is the name of the fiftieth generation of Longhu Mountain Zhengyi and the chief leader of the world's Daomen. Hurriedly shouted to the people in the mansion: "Open the middle door quickly, and ask the Heavenly Master Mansion to wash the dust with tea." ”

"Not necessarily." Zhang Tianshi shook his head lightly and said: "The poor Dao body is not free, and you can't move around at will when you enter Beijing, you have to go to the Ministry of Rites first, and then wait for the face saint in the Heavenly Master's Mansion." With that, he arched his hand towards Wang Yin, turned over his horse, and walked away with a group of entourage.

In a blink of an eye, he couldn't see the figure of the old way, and he didn't see Li Shizhen, Wang Yin shook his head helplessly, returned to the mansion, and went straight to Shen Mingchen's bedroom to visit, seeing that he had woken up, he hurriedly said: "Brother, you are tired." ”

"It's okay......" Shen Mingchen drank a bowl of ginseng soup, gained some strength, and said softly: "I have invited Mr. Li here, but he can't enter Beijing without a will, and he lives at a post station outside the city." ”

"Great, now the adults are saved." Wang Yin rubbed his hands excitedly and said, "You have made a great contribution."

"Which is my credit, it is clearly the good fate that adults usually forge," Shen Mingchen smiled and said: "When I found Mr. Li, he was a guest in the Heavenly Master's Mansion, and explained the matter to him, and without saying a word, he carried the medical bag on his back and followed me on the road," said in amazement: "What's even more amazing is that Zhang Tianshi heard about it and wanted to go on the road with us, so I thought that I would have a greater grasp of it now, so I agreed." ”

"He's that kind?" Yu Yin frowned.

"Saving others is saving yourself." Wang Yin smiled faintly and said: "The Heavenly Master's Mansion has been married to dignitaries for generations, and he has a wide range of contacts in the court, and the emperor is all over the world to beg Li Shizhen, if he doesn't realize that the crisis is approaching, Zhang Tianshi will not be passed on for fifty generations." ”

Both of them felt that what he said was reasonable, and they couldn't help but nod their heads together, and Shen Mingchen asked again, "What happened in Jingjing these days?" ”

"Generally as usual, the emperor will not accept any music on the grounds of the New Year." Yu Yin, who was waiting for him on the side, said: "But tomorrow is the day when the yamen will work, and Elder Xu Ge will also return to the cabinet, so there is no reason not to accept it." ”

"According to the news, the emperor's illness is even worse," Wang Yin said, "and he is already bedridden, which is not bad news for us." ”

"Hmm......" Shen Mingchen nodded and said softly: "We have done everything we can do, and the rest can only depend on the performance of your lords." ”

"Yes...... Wang Yin agreed, "I hope there will be a good result......"

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

As soon as the Shangyuan Festival passed, it was officially over the Spring Festival, and the yamen in Beijing began to work, and the state apparatus, which had been suspended for more than half a month, began to operate slowly again.

However, the officials ignored the government affairs that had been accumulated for more than half a month, but submitted the notes to the General Affairs Envoy one after another, and in just one morning, more than 500 copies were received in the receipt room. Among them, more than 200 were to ask the emperor to punish those officials lightly, more than 200 were to ask for a public trial of Hai Jui, and more than 100 were to ask Shen Mo what crime he had committed and why he was imprisoned.

The political envoy did not dare to slack off, and hurriedly sent these recitals to the celebrant supervisor, at this time, the one who was on duty in the ceremonial supervisor's duty room was Ma Sen, who was cleaned up by Jiajing, and he looked at the car of recitals, and said: "Send it all to the Wuyi Palace, the emperor's dragon body is against harmony, don't bother him with these mundane affairs." ”

The envoy took out a book from his sleeve and said, "This must be handed over to the emperor." ”

Ma Sen took it and took a look, it was Yin Song from Shuntian Mansion, saying that Li Shizhen, who the emperor was secretly looking for, was now resting in the inn outside the city. couldn't help but be overjoyed: "Of course I want this." ”

"There's another one." The envoy took out another book and said: "The Ministry of Rites is playing, Zhang Tianshi arrived in Beijing yesterday and asked for an audience." ”

"This is good," Ma Sen also took it and said: "The emperor has been in a very bad mood for the past two days, and Zhang Tianshi has come just in time to unlock the sacred heart." ”

He handed over the two songs, and after a while, Jiajing was really approved, and ordered the two to enter the palace to see the driver.

Zhang Tianshi had been waiting outside the gate of Xiyuan for a long time, naturally arrived earlier than Li Shizhen, and followed the eunuch to the Shengshou Palace.

After a brief greeting, Zhang Tianshi waited with bated breath for the emperor to ask questions, knowing that this was a critical moment in the survival of the sect.

"Great True ......" Jiajing finally spoke: "Shao and Tao, the two immortal masters, have they ascended to immortals?" Or is it ancient? ”

"Of course I've ascended to immortality." Zhang Tianshi's face did not change and said: "When Shao Zhenren ascended, the poor road was wandering, but when Tao Zhenren was ascending, I was serving on the side, only to see the strange fragrance full of rooms, the heavenly general auspicious clouds, the real person sitting on the top of Qinglian Peak, there was a white light descending, and then he disappeared without a trace."

Zhang Tianshi said it all over the place, but Jiajing didn't scratch his heart and lungs like usual, but said lightly: "Yes, Tao Zhenren's cultivation is profound, and I might as well do it." ”

Zhang Tianshi secretly shouted that it was not good, it seemed that the emperor was really disappointed in cultivating immortals, fortunately, the countermeasures were ready-made, he pretended to be mysterious and said: "Tao Zhenren is very concerned about Your Majesty, but he is about to ascend, and he must return to the division to cope with the catastrophe, so he left the capital, but he has always been worried about the emperor in his heart." Without waiting for Jiajing to react, he said again: "Before Tao Tianshi ascended, the Dao Law was the highest, and he could cave the Three Realms and Kyushu, now and in the future, he had already seen that the emperor had gone astray, and he had something to tell His Majesty. ”

"I've gone astray?" Jiajing muttered, "How do you say this? Why go astray? Why? ”

Feeling that the emperor's mood was extremely unstable, Zhang Tianshi secretly pinched his sweat, pretended to sigh and said: "In fact, if you practice according to the immortal method of my party, the emperor will definitely not deviate, and sooner or later he will be able to reach the day of ascension, but you later thought that our exercises were too slow to take effect, in order to achieve quick results, collect the world's secret books, and the exercises of all sects and sects have been practiced, and the breath in the body of Zhishi is mixed; What is especially serious is that some speculators who do not learn and have no skills take fake exercises and evil pills to present to the emperor, so that your body is unbearably hot and unbearable, and you keep coughing up blood, which is a precursor to going mad."

"Can that be remedied?". Jiajing was fooled by him, ordered someone to remove the bead curtain, and looked at Zhang Tianshi with blank eyes.

"Difficult, difficult, difficult......" Zhang Tianshi shook his head and said: "My Taoist practice is the Yuan Shen, and the physical body is the Yuan Shen's Ding Furnace, the emperor's Ding Furnace is broken, and the Yuan Shen can no longer cultivate......

"......" Jiajing's eyes suddenly lost their luster and said: "The three flowers gathering at the top is illusory, and the clouds under my feet are not real, it turns out that I just had a dream......

Zhang Tianshi tried his best to speak, of course, not to make the emperor desperate, he wanted to make the emperor go from despair to hope, and he didn't even dare to doubt, so he said: "The saint is relieved, the real person has already left a way to crack it." ”

"Really?" Speaking of Jiajing, it's really pitiful, such a shrewd emperor, as soon as he came to this ghost and god matter, he seemed imbecile and mentally retarded, and he really grabbed a life-saving straw, and said urgently: "Why don't you talk about it soon?" ”

"Reincarnation." Zhang Tianshi said with a solemn face: "My Taoist has a secret method, which can inject people's primordial spirit into others and seize other people's bodies for their own use. ”

"Reincarnation?" Jiajing muttered, of course he was not unfamiliar with this word, but he always felt very far away from him, and he didn't expect it to become the only choice now. At this time, he coughed again, and hurriedly covered his mouth with a handkerchief, and when he stopped, he coughed up blood, and said sadly: "This body is indeed useless, and it seems that taking it is the only way." I couldn't help but blurt out, "Is it dangerous?" ”。

"With the full support of this sect, the emperor can rest assured." Seeing that the trick was sold, Zhang Tianshi hit the railroad while it was hot: "I'll wait for Your Majesty to find a spirit body that can be cultivated with half the effort, and then erase its primordial spirit, Your Majesty will take the opportunity to enter and take over this body, and it will be completed." ”

"Oh......" Jiajing nodded and asked, "Where can I find such a spirit?" ”

"The three thousand disciples of Longhu Mountain are all willing to sacrifice for the emperor." Zhang Tianshi said: "But there is one thing, this matter of seizing the creation of heaven and earth, must be strictly kept secret, once it is leaked, the heavens will descend on the heavenly calamity, and then it will be destroyed." ”

"I know this...... Jiajing is a scheming emperor after all, of course he knows that this matter is important and cannot be played, and he is always convinced, but he has to weigh it again and again, so he asked Zhang Tianshi to step back first.

Zhang Tianshi got up and saluted, and suddenly remembered something, and said: "Oh, by the way, before Tao Zhenren goes, there is still something to tell Your Majesty." ”

"Please." Jiajing's words to Tao Zhenren are very important.

"He said that there is a little friend in the world, who was sent to the Ming Dynasty by heaven Wenqu Xing, and in the future, he will set the country and the country, and Kuang Fu Sheji." Zhang Tianshi said unhurriedly: "But this year he will be imprisoned, please open your majesty's net, don't embarrass him." ”

As soon as Jiajing heard it, he knew who he was talking about, and after hearing the words, he pondered for a moment and said: "Tao Zhenren's words, I remember them, remember them......," and paused and said: "Besides, today's prison disaster was also caused by him, so it's better to stay in prison first." "Neither affirmation nor denial, which makes Zhang Tianshi scratch his head. But he didn't dare to say more, and if he said it again, there would be traces, so he gave a salute and retired.

There is a way to seek wealth and danger, and sometimes peace needs to be sought in danger, Zhang Tianshi's pretentiousness actually has a triple purpose, one is to draw a clear line with Wang Jin's gang of liars; the second is to avoid that after the death of the emperor, someone will liquidate the Heavenly Master; The third is to pull silence, and the umbrella that Tao Zhongwen can't find has fallen like this.

At the end of the day, it's all about self-preservation.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Jiajing's body now can only see one person every day, and as soon as Zhang Tianshi went, he lay down on the dragon bed, completely out of energy. However, when the eunuch came in and said that someone had asked to see him again, he still happily announced it.

Because the person who came was the miracle doctor Li Shizhen.

Jiajing is not confused, in his opinion, Taoist priests and doctors, one is to soothe the soul and the other is to heal, and he needs both now, and even the need for the latter is greater than the former. After all, the avenue is ethereal and unexpected, and even if hope is still not lost, there are only wisps, and it is no longer as fanatical as before.

But the pain of his body tosses him all the time, and he urgently needs this great power who has only come out in hundreds of years to recuperate himself.

While he was thinking wildly, footsteps sounded, and then a clear voice said: "Grass people Li Shizhen, knock on Your Majesty, long live......

Jiajing tilted his head with difficulty, glanced at Li Shizhen, and saw that he was still clothed and clothed, his face was clear, but there was no change in his appearance, and he couldn't help but sigh: "Imperial Doctor Li is unharmed, but I am not decently old." ”

"If you had listened to the grass people, why would the emperor stop there?" Li Shizhen originally had no good impression of the emperor, but seeing his skinny and dying appearance, the 'doctor's parents' heart softened again, and sighed: "Jindan harms people, Your Majesty always knows now, right?" Fewer words"

"You're still like this." Jiajing smiled helplessly: "I don't save face at all." ”

"Good medicine is good for disease, and good advice is good for action." Li Shizhen said lightly while opening the medicine box.

"Bold ......" Ma Sen, who was on the side, couldn't listen to it anymore, and loudly scolded Li Shizhen: "Who are you talking to?" ”

"That's it......" Jiajing said disapprerovitically: "He's such a person, he can't be changed." Masson had to keep his mouth shut.

Li Shizhen didn't appreciate it, took out a small pillow, rested it on the side of the bed, and said firmly: "Pulse." ”

Jiajing hurriedly put his hand on his hand and obediently asked him to check his pulse. At this time, the eunuch and the palace maid did not dare to make a sound, and the hall was quiet.

After he withdrew his hand, Jiajing cautiously asked, "Sir, how is my illness?" ”

Li Shizhen didn't answer, and asked Ma Sen: "What kind of medicine does the emperor take now?" ”

Ma Sen hurriedly took out the Golden Courtyard unilaterally.

Li Shizhen took it and looked at it, pondered for a moment and said: "Remove Korean ginseng, the amount of codonopsis is halved, plus five coins of tangerine peel and five coins of angelica."

"Won't the gentleman prescribe another prescription?". Jiajing looked at him beggingly.

"This recipe has been developed well, and the grass people can only balance it a little bit, so that it is more peaceful, and the medicinal effect will naturally be better." Li Shizhen sighed lightly and said: "Just take it like this, the grass people will pass on a set of acupuncture methods to the imperial doctor, and give your majesty a needle every day, which will definitely alleviate your majesty's pain." ”

"What, you're still leaving?" Jiajing was surprised.

"Your Majesty, rest assured, the grass people will go to live outside the palace first." Li Shizhen said expressionlessly: "You can be summoned at any time if you have something." ”

"Can't you stay with me?" Jiajing asked.

"The grass people have a bad temper, and they can't speak, for fear of making the emperor angry." Li Shizhen said half-heartedly.

Looking at him, Jiajing asked slowly, "Is it ...... Are you still blaming me, blaming me for driving you away in the first place? ”

"The grass people don't dare." Li Shizhen bowed his head and said: "In this matter, someone has already explained the grass people. After a pause, he said: "He said, the world is one family, the emperor is the father of all people, and there are parents in the world, how can children hold grudges against their fathers and ancestors?" ”

"Who is it?" Jiajing's eyes lit up, this was simply the most intimate word he had heard recently.

"Silence." Li Shizhen raised his head, looked at Jiajing and said, "This time he also persuaded me to come to Beijing." ”

"It's him......" Jiajing showed a sudden expression and said in a low voice: "No wonder you came." After hanging his head for a long time, he raised his head and said to Li Shizhen: "I won't give you face, but I can't let him out now, it's not to save him but to hurt him, you don't understand the truth here, go down." ”

Li Shizhen sighed lightly and stepped back.
