Emperor Jiajing recalled: "When I was twelve years old, my father died (the father emperor mentioned here is not Emperor Wuzong Zhengde, but Jiajing's biological father, Xingxian Wang Zhu Youqi. Wuzong died violently, and the fourteen-year-old King Xing succeeded to the throne as Emperor Jiajing. Jiajing posthumously honored his biological father as the emperor of Xingxian. ), I attacked as the king of Xing. I thought that in this life, I would spend my life in the palace like those vassal kings of the Ming Dynasty. When my father was alive, I begged for immortals all day long, but I couldn't get it. Shao Yuanjie came to Xingwangfu when I was most helpless and told me that there would be a turnaround in less than three years. Sure enough, when I was fourteen years old, I was taken to the capital and inherited the throne! Shao Yuanjie, how about your name me? ”

Xu Dong hesitated for a moment, and said cautiously: "But if the essence of the passage door is easy to calculate, in fact, it is not difficult to calculate that the emperor will be able to take the throne. With this, it is actually not a great favor to the emperor. If Shao Guoshi thinks about the emperor, he should not let the Shangqing Palace go to Jiangxi, Sichuan and other places to extort tyranny and cause trouble to the people. Besides, Shao Guoshi knew that the emperor intended to take back the power of Xia Ge Lao, but instead colluded with him and formed a party for personal gain! It's for the unwise......"

Emperor Jiajing closed his eyes and was silent, and Xu Dong saw that his face was gloomy, his expression was tired, and his complexion was quite unhealthy. I felt a little unbearable. This Emperor Jiajing likes to cultivate the Tao, often takes various pills, and the toxins in his body have accumulated, leaving the root of the disease. In any case, Jiajing still treats Xu Dong like a nephew and is very favored. Xu Dong thought about how to get Jiajing to try not to take those messy pills anymore.

Seeing that Emperor Jiajing was reluctant to mention Shao Yuanjie's matter, Xu Dong changed the topic and pretended to exclaim: "Ah, the disciple almost forgot a major event!" A few days ago, the disciple went to Yunmengze to visit friends, but accidentally took a fork in the road. Emperor, guess who I met? ”

Jiajing smiled: "Could it be that you have met your master's old friend?"

Xu Dong bragged: "Although it's not, it's not far away." The disciple met Wudang Patriarch Zhang Xianren. ”

Jiajing asked, "Which Zhang Immortal?"

Xu Dongdao: "Zhang Sanfeng, Emperor Xianzong is the one with the title of "Taoguang Shangzhi True Immortal"."

Jiajing was shocked: "It's him!" Is this person still alive? Isn't it almost 300 years old? ”

Xu Dong said: "There are not three hundred, there are also two hundred and five." People are now earth immortals. ”

Jiajing hurriedly asked, "How did you do after you saw it?"

Xu Dong said with a smile: "I finally met an immortal, and the disciple must come forward to pay respects." Zhang Xianren looked at my master's face, and he was quite polite to his disciples. ”

Jiajing said: "Hey, I heard that this person has a bad temper. Emperor Yongle sent people to look for him everywhere, and finally found him, but he refused to go to see the first emperor. Your master's face is really not small! Oh, you go on. ”

Xu Dong continued to brag: "The disciple chatted with him about some miscellaneous matters, and when he talked about the emperor's cultivation and taking pills, Zhang Xianren was quite unimpressed. He said that the emperor is a meritorious immortal, and when the merit in the world is complete, he will naturally return to the heavenly realm. Nowadays, taking the elixir of a cultivator in the flesh is harmful and not beneficial. ”

Emperor Jiajing asked anxiously, "That's what Immortal Zhang said?"

Xu Dong nodded and said, "That's what he said, and asked the disciple to bring a bottle of immortal liquid elixir to the emperor." Let the emperor drink half of it, which can strengthen the body and prolong life. Keep the other half just in case, if there is an injury or illness that is difficult to treat, take it to heal. As he spoke, he took out a small crystal bottle and handed it to Jiajing, which was actually filled with water of life.

Jiajing hurriedly took the crystal bottle, glanced at the turquoise liquid inside, and opened the cap without the slightest hesitation to drink it. At this moment, only a shout could be heard: "Your Majesty shall not!" Then a strong wind blew, and the mysterious old eunuch appeared in front of Jiajing, anxiously preventing Jiajing from taking the water of life.

Jiajing frowned, and said impatiently: "Stand down!" Hugh is to be eventful. Could it be that Xu Dong will still harm me! ”

The old eunuch was stunned for a moment and glanced at Xu Dong deeply. He stooped down and exited the temple gate.

Jiajing raised his head and drank half a bottle of water of life, only to feel a coolness directly into his lungs, and in an instant, the coolness in his abdomen turned into a hot breath and dispersed into the veins around his body. The whole person suddenly perked up, his whole body was warm and indescribably comfortable, and all the hidden toxins in his body were removed.

"Hahaha! It's a fairy elixir! Such an immortal thing can only hate to drink it every day...... Emperor Jiajing sighed.

Jiajing glanced at the crystal bottle in his hand with some reluctance, and handed the remaining half bottle of water of life to Xu Dongdao: "You can bring these immortal things with you, and you can also use them to save your life if something happens." You're out and about, and I'm really worried. With the immortal liquid, I can also feel a little at ease. ”

A trace of gratitude flashed in Xu Dong's heart, and he pushed the crystal bottle back to Jiajing with a smile and said, "The emperor's kindness to the disciple, the disciple understands it." However, the disciple is a Taoist cultivator, and this thing is of little use to the disciple. Or put it next to the emperor for peace. ”

Jiajing sighed, put away the bottle and said: "Today, I saw that you and Yuan Jie were in the Taihe Palace, and the flying sword and dragon shadows were all out, and I was actually very envious in my heart. I have cultivated the Shangqing Palace's "Immortal Sutra" for many years, but there has been no progress at all. Presumably, this flesh is not suitable for cultivation. Could it be something like me...... Merit is immortal, can you not cultivate the Tao? ”

Xu Dong said embarrassedly: "Probably, after all, people like me who cultivate and seek immortals are so different from the emperor." Our cultivation is to fight for our lives with the sky, and if we are lucky, we will practice hard for a hundred years, and we will be a free immortal like Zhang Immortal. If you're unlucky, you're gone. And the emperor is an immortal in the heavenly court, living with heaven and earth, and growing old with the sun and the moon. If, after entering the mortal world, I go to cultivate like us, wouldn't it be like throwing away the throne and becoming a beggar......"

"Threw away the throne and became a beggar. Hahaha, the analogy makes sense. Today, I know that everything I did before was messing around! Emperor Jiajing seemed to wake up once, shook his head and sighed.

Xu Dong bowed and said, "Disciple's words make times!" The emperor forgives his sins. ”

Jiajing smiled: "You're right, what's the crime?" I was originally an immortal in the heavenly realm, but I somehow went to cultivate something. Isn't it sacrificing the basics? Hahaha. It's ridiculous to think about it now! But you guy, since you've met Zhang Xianren, why don't you bring him back to see me? ”

Xu Dong said aggrievedly: "He is an earth immortal, and the disciple is just a mere Taoist." He doesn't want to come, what can I do? ”

Jiajing sighed and said, "That's it, I'll wait until I return to the Heavenly Realm in the future to repay him this favor." I think Yuanjie seems to be quite jealous of you, could it be that you are very powerful? ”

Xu Dong said proudly: "In terms of realm, Shao Yuanjie is one level higher than his disciple, but if I fight, I have a better chance of winning."

Jiajing said with interest: "What do you say?" Let's hear it. ”

Xu Dong was surprised: "Didn't Shao Yuanjie tell the emperor?" He is in the realm of Daozun, one realm higher than me. However, looking at today's performance, it should only be a beginner-level Dao Venerable. Although the disciple's realm is not as good as him, the disciple's martial arts are not weak, and he has recently broken through the realm of the grandmaster. If he Shao Yuanjie dares to let me get close, I can hit his! ”

Jiajing laughed and shouted: "All the nonsense! Although he is a little unbearable, for my sake, he will not have to deal with him. ”

Xu Dong said depressedly: "The emperor has said this, what else can the disciple say?" However, in the matter of shipping, the emperor must not let them interfere! ”

Jiajing nodded and said, "Naturally, I didn't expect these guys to use their brains to go to my sea." After today's trouble, it is estimated that it will be difficult for you to be knighted. ”

Xu Dongdao: "It doesn't matter if you are knighted or not, the Dangkou Sailor Division now has 60,000 marines and 50,000 sailors. Nearly a thousand warships. The disciple is preparing to send troops to conquer the Sultanate of Aceh (Sumatra) in the near future. If all goes well, even Luzon (Philippines) will be occupied. Look at what else they have to say! ”

Jiajing said excitedly: "Okay! Continuously expand the territory for thousands of miles! At that time, no one will be able to say half a word! If you conquer Luzon and Aceh, I will make you the governor of the South China Sea! ”

Xu Dong thanked him: "Emperor Xie!" There is another thing, Jiaxing, Zhejiang Province is a necessary place for the transportation of materials for the Dangkou Sailor, and Li Zitong, the prefect of Jiaxing, is the protégé of Xia Gelao. This person has repeatedly made it difficult for my sailor to transport, which is very annoying! The disciple begged the emperor to transfer this person to another place. ”

Jiajing said: "This matter is not difficult, do you have a candidate for the prefect of Jiaxing?"

Xu Dongdao: "Cai Chun, Siping Zhi County, this person is a Jinshi in the fourteenth year of Hongzhi. He can be appointed as the prefect of Jiaxing. ”

Jiajing was surprised: "Fourteen years of Hongzhi? After more than 30 years, is he still a magistrate? ”

Xu Dong said with a smile: "It shows that this person is not good at officialdom, and now that the emperor has promoted him to the prefect of Jiaxing, Cai Chun will be grateful to Dade for repaying him with death."

Jiajing smiled and said, "I'm afraid I'm grateful to you, right?" I know about it. Let's talk about something else. ”

Xu Dong laughed embarrassedly twice and said, "Or the prefect of Suzhou will also change ......."

Emperor Jiajing said "...... roll"

In the afternoon, when Xu Dong stood at the door of the yamen of the Ministry of Officials and crossed his waist and scolded Li Shangshu, all kinds of foul language appeared in an endless stream, and there was no repetition for two hours. Several officials of the Ministry of Officials came out to dissuade Xu Dong, but they were beaten in the street. That night, Li Shi was so angry that he vomited blood and fell ill. Three days later, Li Fu was mourned, and Li Shi, a scholar of Huagai Palace, the prince and the secretary of the ministry, died in office at the age of 67......

The crowd was outraged, and hundreds of officials, big and small, impeached Xu Dong. Emperor Jiajing immediately approved and posthumously named Li Shi as the Taifu, nicknamed Wenkang. Xu Dong, the commander of the Dangkou Water Division, made a big fuss about the officials and fined him for half a year, making him introspect himself. Feng Xu's east side room lady blue rainbow three products of Hao, gave 200 pieces of silk, 3,000 taels of gold, ten pearls, and a jade crown. The civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty were speechless......

Zhoushan, inside the lobby of the Admiral's Palace. Xu Dong looked at the newspaper from the capital and laughed: "Old thing, be angry!" Let you be the yin behind your back! ”

After speaking, he threw the newspaper in his hand and strode out of the mansion. In the school yard in front of the Admiral's Palace, countless heavily armed sailor officers and soldiers were gathered. As soon as the 100,000 officers and soldiers of the Navy Division saw Xu Dong walk out, they all knelt down on one knee and shouted: "Meet the commander!"

Xu Dong raised his hand and shouted: "Pass me handsome!" 100,000 troops and 400 ships! Strategy Sumatra! Daming will win! ”

Drums rumbled and flags waved in the school grounds. 100,000 people shouted in unison: "Victory!" Win! ”
