Chapter 123: The Prince Asks
I have been busy with half a day's leisure, this sentence is used to describe my current situation, I have been busy with the affairs of the tomb soldiers for several months, every day from sunrise to sunset, living a regular and boring life, busy like an old cow who can't breathe.
Today is a rare day off, so I plan to go back to the house to have a look, and then go back to Zhuoxian to see my father and mother, and I still have a lot of things to say to them in my heart, and I want to ask them.
On the way out of the palace, I have been thinking about this matter, but the more you want to do something, the more you will encounter some obstacles, which I am used to, for example, the person who appears in front of me,
This person wears a luxurious four-clawed golden dragon robe, a sable chest-covering cape, a golden crown on his head, a jade tree in the wind, thick eyebrows and big eyes, a tall nose bridge, upright facial features, extraordinary instruments, and an age similar to mine.
Not only did I think it was so important to have a good tire.
This person is the eldest son of His Majesty today, and he is also the prince of the Moon Dynasty, Jia Dingshan.
When I saw that he was in my way, I saluted.
"See His Royal Highness the Crown Prince."
I knew him, I had a relationship with him when I first attacked,
"Master Ji doesn't have to be polite."
"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has praised it falsely, where does the minister dare to be an adult, I don't know if His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has something to do?"
As the saying goes, a good dog doesn't get in the way. And people will not stop in front of you for no reason, this is the immutable theorem. When His Royal Highness the Crown Prince saw me say this, he smiled slightly, and the corners of his mouth looked personable, just this one detail, I don't know how many beautiful girls will be fascinated.
"I have heard for a long time that Ji Wulin is very knowledgeable, and God knows astronomy and geography. The prince set up some thin wine in the East Palace today, and asked Wu Lin to give advice. β
His Royal Highness the Crown Prince's orders are the same as those of His Majesty, so I didn't dare not listen to them, and said,
"Thanks to His Royal Highness the Prince's kind invitation, Weichen obeys the order."
The East Palace, that is, the palace group where the prince lives, does not refer to a certain palace, and this East Palace cannot be compared with His Majesty's Heavenly Palace, its scale and the size of the main hall, at best, it is about the same as the imperial study, but even so, it is not comparable to my small third-rank official.
I don't know what these royal nobles live in such a big house, and it is rare that it doesn't look empty when there are fewer people
I followed His Royal Highness the Crown Prince all the way into the main hall of the East Palace, the Hall of Meditation,
This is the name given by His Majesty, it is said that the prince was stubborn when he was young, and then followed the soldiers and horses of the Western Expedition to the Roman Empire, and then came back to learn to be obedient, His Majesty specially set up a palace for this purpose, called Jingxin, that is, I hope that the prince can calm down and study hard, and inherit the great cause in the future.
I don't know if this person is serious about it today, but the palace is really big
Follow him into the meditation hall, step over the threshold, only to find that the original appearance of the noble and undesecrated meditation hall, but the inside is so poor and simple, without any luxurious decoration, and there are no dazzling dancing girls in my impression, only a few simple wooden couches, couch tables,
His Majesty's couch is made of gold, and the prince's couch is made of wood, and the difference is really big
The prince walked to the top of the front hall, and stretched out his hand to me and motioned for me to sit down, I did not dare to resist, but I had to thank him, and when I came to his lower position and sat down, I did not say a word, and when he saw me sitting there, he beckoned to the eunuch under him,
The eunuch nodded in agreement and walked to the back hall, and after a while, a group of palace maids came out of the back hall, holding all kinds of delicacies and royal wines in their hands, and staggered one by one on the couch in front of me.
I have to say that the wine in this palace is much stronger than the Xinghua Village I bought on the market, and even the aroma of the wine is different.
And the liquor in the market exudes only old ones
It's just chaff, and when it comes to wine tasting, that's.
His Royal Highness the Crown Prince didn't seem to be in a hurry to say anything to me, and raised the wine cup in his hand to invite me.
"Wu Lin, you are really a rare guest, I want to invite you to drink many times, but I am not at home every time, today our monarchs and ministers must be drunk and resting"
I sighed slightly,
Alas, it's a drunken Fang Xiu again, I hope it's good not to be really drunk, in case I drink too much and have a foreign appearance, Your Majesty's ears are very pointed.
Thinking secretly in his heart, he raised the wine cup in his hand and collided with him in the air, and drank it as soon as he raised his head, and the spicy and sweet wine flowed down the esophagus into his abdomen, instantly washing away the chill on his body.
I also want to go home to see my father and mother, I don't want to have too much entanglement with him here, after all, I have a very good relationship with Your Majesty now, and if I am good with Your Majesty, I can't get too close to the Prince, otherwise I will be criticized.
"I don't know why His Royal Highness the Crown Prince invited his ministers to come today."
After hearing this, he looked stunned, and then laughed,
"Hahahaha, Wu Lin is really fast-talking, since this is the case, then the palace will not hide it, I just want to ask you, is there really an immortal life in this world?"
After he said this, I felt that something was wrong, it stands to reason that this prince looks about the same age as me, even a few years older than me, in terms of age, he should have seen his grandfather Jia Haoxi,
Since he has seen it, then he belongs to the kind of person who believes in immortality, why would he question me here at this time
Could it be that His Majesty secretly set me a trap again
I'm a little cautious, there is no reward for answering this kind of question well, but if you answer it incorrectly, you are likely to fall into the abyss. The lightest has to be a military stick to serve.
"Your Highness should have met the first emperor back then, why would you ask such a question?"
The prince saw that I was very wary, so he raised the wine cup in his hand again, smiled slightly, and said to me.
"Wu Lin don't mind, this palace is also curious, after all, my impression of the first emperor is already very vague, so please Wu Lin do not hesitate to give advice."
I raised the cup in my hand, drank it again, and then wiped my mouth.
"Ah Changsheng may really be possible, but the minister hasn't really seen it, because the first emperor and the minister basically have nothing to do with it, but the minister's father is a person who has seen the first emperor, saying that he is seventy years old and looks like he is in his early twenties, I think if this is not immortality, then what is it?"
"What if it's well maintained?"
I shook my head, how could this kind of two-stroke question come from the mouth of the prince, didn't he have a teacher to teach?
"Even if the maintenance is good, the body's metabolism will not allow you, seventy years old is still like the early twenties, we often talk about maintenance, health, but also to make your body slower aging, seventy years old can look like fifty years old, but you want to say like twenty years old with me, this is too unrealistic, right,
Moreover, among my court, including His Majesty and the Queen's Mother, there are by no means a few people who have seen the first emperor, so what else does His Royal Highness the Crown Prince not believe?"
He laughed,
"Hahaha, it's not that I don't believe it, I don't know if there is such a thing as immortality in the world, but the word immortality is too ethereal. The first emperor began to travel decades ago, and his life and death are still unknown, and no one has ever found him, so there is no way to be sure of the immortal palace. β
"If you haven't found it, it doesn't mean that you haven't, it seems that Your Highness still lacks confidence in His Majesty's wish for immortality."
Speaking of this, the prince suddenly stood up in his eyes and asked me with a somewhat mysterious taste,
"So what is immortality?"
I took another sip of wine, and this royal wine was not something anyone could drink, let alone drink
If you can drink it, it would be a sin to take this opportunity to drink two glasses instead of drinking it.
"Ah immortality is to prolong one's life reasonably, in other words, people will not die of old age, that's all."
"In other words, if an immortal person gets a serious illness, he will also die, and he will not be able to live without eating or drinking."
I nodded, "That's what it means." β
He asked again,
"But if the first emperor was immortal, why did he leave with his wives instead of ruling thousands of miles of rivers and mountains forever?"
I can't help but sigh for Your Majesty, if such a person inherits the throne, it can be described as a misfortune. It's clear that he has reached the crown, but his mind is so naΓ―ve,
In fact, this is not difficult to understand, for a person or a group of immortal people, their hearts are no longer in this world, rather than watching their children and grandchildren die one by one due to aging, but they will always remain beautiful, this is not a kind of torture.
Therefore, it makes sense that the first emperor began to travel far away after his immortal life and never came back. β
"Then according to you, will it be the same after Your Majesty is immortal?"
"No, Your Majesty's obsession with the country is much heavier than that of the first emperor, but if His Royal Highness dies of old age in front of him one day, I'm afraid that what he thinks and thinks will be different from what he thinks now, so the prince doesn't have to worry."
After listening to my words, he seemed to suddenly open up, and his originally sad expression slowly soothed, as if my words made him pause, and said with a smile,
"Hahaha is good to listen to your words, it's better to read for ten years, Wu Lin, I can't hide it, you and Sister Xueyang are about to get married, in addition to asking you for advice today, I still want to give you a gift. Come on, bring it up."
With that, he beckoned to the eunuch beside him, and the eunuch bowed and saluted, and then took a tray from the hand of a palace maid.
This pallet is very exquisite, and covered with a red cloth, came to me, saw this scene I asked puzzled.
"Your Highness, this is"
He smiled mysteriously, "Just open it and see." β
Knowing that this was not good, I gritted my teeth and reached out to tear his red cloth directly, and lying inside was a shining unicorn golden crown
This gift is not unimportant to know, the golden crown is a thing that is very different from the royal gift, and the things you create can not have any carving, and the royal gift, you can carve some unicorn peacocks and other beasts on it, which is also a supreme glory.
My eyes are getting brighter and brighter, it's not that I'm obsessed with money, this thing is actually sold on the black market, and the price is not high, because no one dares to buy it, since His Highness gave me a golden crown today, I think he is determined to befriend me.
I was a little pleased, and hurriedly bowed my hand to His Royal Highness the Prince,
"Thank you, Your Highness, for the gift."
When he saw that I liked me, he laughed cheerfully.
"Hahahaha, if you like it, I'll be my brother-in-law soon, and our family will still have to move around a lot in the future."
This is obviously something in the words, I often move around with the prince, isn't this going to be killed by the ministers
But what he said was very vague, so I had to smile and nod and say, "That's nature." β
"Great, good, come, come, you and I will drink again"
I love this gift very much, the tray is placed on my couch table, I look left and right, never get tired of looking at it, pick up the wine bottle and drink again,
After drinking, I felt confused, and secretly said that this royal wine is not ordinary, and a few lower stomachs will make you swing, and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince saw the stitches, and saw that I was slightly drunk, so he slapped his hands twice,
