The unlucky little palace maid dragged it down, and just when Jiajing was still angry, another chamberlain came tremblingly and said: "Your Majesty, the royal chief is asking to see you outside the palace." ”

"Quick." Jiajing was worried about the sudden explosion of the Dan furnace, he didn't know if this was a warning from heaven, and he was trying to find someone to calculate the good luck, but he didn't expect that Wang Jin to come at the right time.

Soon, Wang Jin, who was wearing a Taoist robe, appeared in front of Jiajing and saluted respectfully: "Weichen see the emperor." ”

"Aiqing, I was trying to pass on the Qing family, but I didn't expect you to come at the right time." Jiajing said happily.

Wang Jin did not reply to Jiajing's words, but looked Jiajing up and down, and there was a hint of doubt on his face.

Jiajing let Wang Jin see that it was a little unnatural, and couldn't help asking: "Aiqing, is there anything wrong with Fei Fei's face?" ”

If it was the palace maid and the eunuch who looked at it like this, Jiajing would have lost his temper a long time ago, but Wang Jin was Jiajing's most trusted person, so Jiajing was a little unhappy in his heart, but he could still tolerate it.

Wang Jin hurriedly knelt down and said with a ashamed face: "Back to the emperor, Weichen is meditating at home, I didn't want to see a fierce light in the palace, because I was worried about the emperor's dragon body, so I was in a hurry to enter the palace, I didn't expect the emperor to still sit here, presumably the minister's way is not refined, so that the emperor smiled." ”

Jiajing was taken aback, and hurriedly asked, "Aiqing saw a fierce light in the palace?" ”

"This, it's true, but it's a flash, now that I think about it, it's possible that Weichen didn't see it clearly, please punish the emperor."

Jiajing stood up, helped Wang Jin with his own hands and said, "Dao Chief, don't be polite, you were not wrong just now, when I was refining the Nine Zhuan Shuoyang Dan just now, I suddenly blew up the Dan furnace. Fortunately, it was only the lid of the Fei Dan furnace, and if the furnace body was blown off, I guess something would happen to me. ”

After that, he gently patted Wang Jin's shoulder and said, "The Taoist is not only profound, but his loyalty is even more commendable, which is rare. It's rare. ”

As soon as the accident was over, Wang Jin came, which shows that his words are right.

Taoism is high and loyal, for such a Taoist, Jiajing likes it from the bottom of his heart.

At this moment, Wang Jin secretly rejoiced in his heart: not only was he lucky, but his former dots also played an important role.

What kind of fierce light is that set is all made up by Wang Jin, Wang Jin originally planned to find Jiajing today. Find a way to attack the outlying islands, the outlying islands are not only heavily guarded, but also protected under the noses of the Jinyi guards, no one dares to break in, if you want to start, in addition to getting the emperor's order, use Jiajing to suppress them.

It's better to come early than to come by chance, just came to the palace. On weekdays, a good eunuch quietly told Wang Jin what had just happened and killed a palace maid. This is a big deal in the palace, and there is no need to hide this kind of thing, and you can inquire about it if you pay a little attention.

As a result, Wang Jin had that set of fierce rhetoric.

Wang Jin's heart blossomed, but his face was silent, and when he heard this, he hurriedly pretended to pinch for a while. Then he breathed a long sigh of relief, and said respectfully: "Actually, the emperor has a catastrophe today, like the explosion of the furnace, ordinary people will definitely have losses, fortunately, the emperor is the body of a real dragon." There is a god in the underworld, and it is really worthy of the existence of destiny. ”

When Jiajing heard this, his original heart relaxed a lot: "There is also Lao Dao Chang who plans more for me." ”

"Obey."

"What is the hint from heaven for this fryer?" Jiajing was still a little uneasy, and hurriedly asked.

In ancient times, productivity was low, and many unexplained things were blamed on the gods, and the ancients' respect for the gods was far beyond the imagination of later generations.

All in all, gods run through people's lives, and even Jiajing is no exception.

At this time, Jiajing, nervous, panicked, in Wang Jin's eyes, and the good men and women of the temple are no different, even if he is a high emperor, he will be old, sick, and afraid of the dead, in Wang Jin's eyes, this is another fat sheep who sends money to the door.

No, it's a big fat sheep that sends glory and wealth to the door.

If it were someone else, he would definitely take the opportunity to say this and ask for that, but Wang Jin was very calm and did not ask for it immediately, because he knew that Jiajing was suspicious and affectionate by nature, and if he proposed it himself, he would probably be suspicious.

Wen Yan just smiled and said: "The emperor doesn't have to worry, the moon is cloudy and sunny, people have three declines and six prosperity, and there are some small setbacks in people's lives, that is a very normal thing, as long as the emperor is sincere, he will definitely be able to move the heavens, so as to achieve bliss." ”

didn't say this for any reason, as soon as Wang Jin said this, he immediately poked at the most uncomfortable place in Jiajing's heart, and said with a depressed face when he heard the words: "Dao Chief, is there really someone in this world who has become an immortal?" ”

Poor people have spent their lives cultivating immortals, and I don't know how much I have taken the elixir, but the longer he cultivates, the farther away he is from the Tao, and as his body gets worse and worse, his heart is not as firm as before. ”

So, he asked a question that doubted himself.

"Emperor" Wang Jin said with a straight face: "There are gods in the three feet of the head, as the saying goes, things can be eaten indiscriminately, but meals can not be talked about, ordinary people say this, the emperor is the son of heaven, the incarnation of the real dragon, to blaspheme the gods, more than 300 years after Zhang Sanfeng's death, there are descendants to see his footprints, Fengdu City, the Han Dynasty has Yin Changsheng, Fang Ping two people have soared in the day, there are many people to witness Zhang Daoling with two relatives, feathering and ascending to heaven, the most prestigious story of the eight immortals, like the head of the eight immortals Lu Dongbin, is the living Tang Dynasty, Like the current famous mountains and rivers, caves and blessed lands, which do not have a moving story of becoming immortals. ”

"The emperor is rich in five cars, and there are many rare books about this kind of immortal in the palace, presumably this kind of story does not need to be told by Weichen, please don't shake the emperor's heart."

After listening to Wang Jin's words, Jiajing's heart suddenly opened up a lot.

In fact, he memorized these stories like a stream, just looking for someone to follow, and when he heard Wang Jin's words, his heart suddenly felt much better.

If someone says it's wrong, it's not good to change it.

Measured by the standards of later generations, Jiajing's IQ is definitely high and he is a smart person, but one thing cannot be ignored, that is, when smart people drill the horns, they are sometimes very stubborn. Don't give up until the moment before you die.

"When what the Taoist chief said is extreme, I am wrong." Jiajing is rarely willing to admit his mistake: "I must sincerely repent to God." ”

Jiajing is stubborn, extreme, and very mean to the people around him, but these are also objects to look at, and he would never dare to offend such a boundless existence as a god.

"People have three declines and six prosperity. It's hard to be perfect, but you can change your mistakes, and I don't think God cares about it. ”

Wang Jin secretly breathed a sigh of relief in his heart.

Although Jiajing is just a complaint, it is not good to have this thought.

You must know that Jiajing is Wang Jin's nobleman and Wang Jin's rice master, once Jiajing does not believe, it means that Wang Jin no longer has the value of existence, and then the glory and wealth will leave him.

Fortunately, Jiajing's heart is still very firm. In other words, in the shadow of death, he is unwilling to give up any straw that may save his life.

It is better to believe it than to believe it, this is the opinion of many people, and without the mysterious coat of the emperor, Jiajing is also an old man who will be old, sick, and afraid of death.

After receiving the comfort in his heart, Jiajing turned to ask, "Dao Chief." Why do I cultivate sincerely, and why does it take longer? I feel that the Tao is getting farther and farther away from me, and after cultivating for decades, I can't dig out grains, nor can I absorb wind and dew, and now my body is getting worse and worse, and sometimes I obviously feel powerless. ”

"I. When I get old, I sometimes feel that death is getting closer and closer to me, why is this? ”

After that, Jiajing said with some emotion: "I." Ordered by the heavens, it is the Son of Heaven, the world, it is my world, in order to cultivate the Tao, I am conscientious every day, I dare not have the slightest neglect, and I also pour the strength of the whole country to collect the treasures of heaven and earth to refine the elixir, so many years, how many precious medicinal materials have been used, how many pills have been refined, I can't remember, why is the Tao declining? ”

Jiajing finally raised his own question.

In fact, I have wanted to ask this question for a long time, and I must have not raised it until now.

Wang Jin said with a straight face: "Your Majesty, according to Weichen, the emperor is very close to attaining the Tao. ”

"Close?" Jiajing said with a surprised face: "Dao Chief, you didn't read it wrong, right? ”

My body is getting worse and worse, why is it that I am so close to the Tao?

If it's really close, even if you can't turn into an immortal and soar in the day, at least you have to be physically strong.

Wang Jin said very seriously: "In front of the emperor, Bendao does not dare to open his mouth. ”

"Then why didn't I feel it at all?"

"Your Majesty, Rong Weichen will tell you a few small examples."

Jiajing immediately sat up straight and said, "Daoist, please speak." ”

Wang Jin said calmly: "A pot of water, burned with fire, as long as the water does not burn, the water is still water, but after a certain temperature, the water will change, the water can only flow on the ground, but the water can float in the sky, which shows that there must be a process, the Buddha enlightened under the Bodhi tree, before he attained the Tao, he was still a mortal, but after enlightenment, he became a god." ”

"When Lu Dongbin was born, Mrs. Lu's house was fragrant, fairy music wafted, a white crane slowly descended from the auspicious clouds and mist, flew into Mrs. Lu's bed and disappeared, and soon after, Lu Dongbin was born, born extremely extraordinary, but because the family was reluctant to let him become a monk, let him study poetry, but unfortunately, this child who was born extraordinary, but had little luck in gaining fame, and failed many times in the exam, until he was white-haired, and only met a Taoist priest in a green robe at the age of sixty-four, And this Taoist priest is Zhong Hanli, who ignited him, in order to test Lu Dongbin's Dao heart, there is a story of ten tests of Lu Dongbin. ”

Zhuangzi said in the getaway that there is a fish in the north of the underworld, and its name is Kun, and the Kun is so big that I don't know how many thousands of miles it is. Turned into a bird, its name is Peng, the back of Peng, I don't know how many thousands of miles it is. Angry and take this as the standard Wang, its wings are like clouds hanging from the sky, turning from fish to birds, and getting out of the sea, so that it can swim between heaven and earth. ”

"The simplest truth, the silkworm emperor knows it, at the beginning of the insect, to eat mulberry leaves, its world, only the size of a plate, maybe a day is to go back and forth in the square inch of land, but when it grows up, it turns into a butterfly, it can go to a broader world."

After saying so much in one breath, Wang Jin took a breath and said lightly: "The emperor pays off, your emperor, in fact, your efforts are not in vain, your sincerity can be learned, it's just that the last step is missing." ”

Wang Jin said, the brighter Jiajing's eyes became, and when Wang Jin finished speaking, he immediately stood up, bowed deeply to Wang Jin and said: "Listening to the words of the Taoist chief, it is better to read ten years of books, and I thank you here." ”

"Don't dare, Your Majesty, you are the true son of heaven, and Weichen really can't stand it." Wang Jin immediately stood up and said with a look of trepidation.

Jiajing laughed, helped Wang Jin up again, and after helping him sit down, he said with a straight face: "The Taoist chief is my guide, and I will need more advice from the emperor in the future." ”

"Don't dare, the emperor's Taoism is profound, let's discuss it together."

"Daoist, the story you told just now is very good, you said that I am very close to the path of cultivation, which means that you see the shortcomings of my cultivation, I would like to ask, what step is it that is not enough, so that the last step has not come?"

Since Wang Jin said that he was very close, he must have known that he still had something he didn't do well, or something he neglected, so that the last step was delayed.

Jiajing is old, so old that he can't wait any longer, he doesn't dare to imagine what will happen after his death, and he doesn't have time to waste anymore, because he already feels that he is getting closer and closer to death, so he is ashamed to ask.

In terms of official position, Wang Jin is just a small official of the Ministry of Rites, but Jiajing gives him enough respect and space.

It was almost time to speak to him in a pleading tone now.

When Wang Jin heard this, he immediately responded: "Your Majesty, Weichen thinks day and night, all he thinks about is how to help the emperor, if the emperor gets the Tao, Weichen can also benefit, and then the emperor is happy, maybe give some pointers, so that Weichen can also have the hope of attaining the Tao, and there has been significant progress recently." ”

"Oh, is there such a thing?" Jiajing's eyes lit up immediately, and he took Wang Jin's hand with one hand and said: "Dao Chief, teach me quickly, as long as you help me to achieve the Tao, my world is also your world, and I am willing to share the Ming Dynasty with you." ”

In order to gain the Tao, Jiajing didn't care about anything, even if the country was laid down by his ancestors, he was willing to share it.

I don't know if the ancestors of the Zhu family will crawl out of the imperial mausoleum and pinch this disdainful descendant to death.

When Wang Jin heard this, he said in his heart that I also wanted to, but unfortunately I can't do this, I really have such a god, I have already become a god myself, and I am happy and happy, where do I need to pretend to be a god here, even a little eunuch has to spend money to buy it.

I live every day with fear, and sometimes I don't feel comfortable sleeping.

"Your Majesty" Wang Jin showed a subtle sneer on his lips, and said with an embarrassed face: "Weichen has only made progress, and he has not overcome this difficulty yet, but he is almost a little bit of help from the outside, and this matter is easy to solve, but because some important people are involved, it can only be delayed."
