Due to Chen Jianjun's repeated urging, the Feixian Palace was expanded by the end of November.

In addition to the original Sanqing Palace, the Feixian Palace has added the Queen Mother Palace, the center of the hall is dedicated to the statue of the West Queen Mother, and the left and right sides are lined up with Taizhen, Youying, Ziwei and Ziyuan Fairies. These fairies are rumored to be the daughters of the Queen Mother of the West, and assist the Queen Mother of the West in managing various affairs such as marriage and childbirth in the world.

After the palaces, a special courtyard was set up to establish the Dan room. All kinds of fine medicinal materials are generally sent to the Dan room.

Zhang Weizhao moved into the Feixian Palace when he first chose an auspicious time in December.

Three days later, Zhang Weizhao was ordered to open the furnace for alchemy.

Chen Jianjun took the pill that Zhang Weizhao entered, and cooperated with the pill to meditate and practice qi every day, and practiced five bird plays to keep fit, and he really felt that he was light and healthy, his ears and eyes were clear, and he was also a lot more energetic when he was in court.

His Majesty the Emperor was very happy, and he rewarded Zhaoming Zhenren with a lot of things.

In fact, Zhang Weizhao knows that the "pill" does play some roles, but the role of psychological suggestion is probably even greater. But making good use of psychological cues is a necessary technique for a psychiatrist, so she accepts these rewards with peace of mind.

At this time, the emperor ordered the expansion of the Feixian Palace, and began to practice the Servant Pill, which caused a lot of discussion inside and outside the court.

Some people who sold their fame and reputation were moved by the wind, and they also began to visit the immortals and asked, giving themselves nicknames such as Yujingzi and Changlingzi, in order to obtain the emperor's blue eyes.

Some scholars were already close to Taoism, and had always pursued the dual cultivation of Confucianism and Taoism, and they were quite happy to see the emperor close to Huang Lao.

Some self-proclaimed orthodox Confucian disciples were bitter about this, believing that His Majesty the Emperor had always been diligent and thrifty, and had stayed away from strange forces and gods, and now he suddenly began to serve Dan, all because of the temptation of demons. I also heard that this demon Dao is very young and is still a Kun Dao, so I am even more indignant, and I believe that this Dao is a demon and a disaster country, and it must be eliminated as soon as possible.

These factions did not dare to openly criticize Chen Jianjun in the court, but they argued endlessly when they went down to the court. If the argument can't come to a conclusion, I want to find someone to ask for an explanation. So many people found Xie Qian, a scholar of the Hanlin Academy and the crown prince. Surprisingly, Xie Qian, as the spiritual leader of the literati, reacted very low-key.

Xie Qian is a contemporary Confucian, and people thought that he would resolutely oppose the emperor's taking pills to refine qi, but Xie Qian said that there are many kinds of pills, and not all cultivators are passive and avoid the world. His Majesty the Emperor is not the kind of dumb lord who doesn't ask the common people about ghosts and gods, doesn't care whether the people live or die, and blindly wants to become immortals. He practiced alchemy just to strengthen his body. Now that His Majesty is in good health and more diligent in his administration, this is a good thing. If you get angry when you hear about alchemy, and you regard it as a demon, this is a blind eye, not the act of a righteous person.

As a result, the criticism of the emperor's service to Dan subsided a little.

Xie Qian can have such an attitude, of course, because the crown prince Chen Youcong has done a lot of work in the middle. In addition, Xie Qian is not a pedantic scholar who eats the past, but a very wise and insightful politician. He knows that many things in the world are not black and white, either/or, and he also understands that Zhang Weizhao is now the prince's descendant, although he does not completely agree with Zhang Weizhao's style, but the general direction is the same, and she is not really doing anything out of the ordinary at present, on the contrary, although the means are beyond the worldly conventions, they are promoting the development of the situation in a positive direction, so Xie Qian is willing to come forward to calm down the unfavorable remarks against Zhang Weizhao.

This winter, Zhang Weizhao found that he was living exceptionally well.

There was no movement on Concubine Jin's side for a long time. Chen Jianjun originally wanted Jin Guifei to practice the pill with him, but Zhang Weizhao persuaded Chen Jianjun that the concubine's qi and blood were relatively weak, and it was not suitable to take the pill now.

Jin Guifei was impatient to do this at all. She only said that Tongzhen has a good health regimen, and she should first use the health regimen to regulate her body well, and then talk about cultivation. Chen Jianjun saw that what she said made sense, so he put things aside first.

Recently, Jin Guifei has been very confident in Li Tianshi and Tong Zhenren, and this matter has crossed the Ming Road, and the emperor naturally knows about it. But Li Tianshi and Tong Zhenren only went to Anxi Palace on the first and fifteenth days of the new year, to diagnose the pulse of the concubine, and adjust the prescription according to the current qi.

Jin Guifei didn't come to Zhang Weizhao, Zhang Weizhao was surprised at first, and then thought that he had been so vigilant and consumed energy in vain, it was better to do what he should do, if someone provoked, he would be relieved to see him again.

After the Feixian Temple was expanded into the Feixian Palace, the Queen Mother selected ten more studious girls to be apprentices to Zhang Weizhao. With so many people added all at once, Zhang Weizhao is still under pressure. She thought that if any of these girls were unwilling to cultivate Taoism and study medicine, they would find an opportunity to let her go back to the Forbidden City.

As a result, these girls were very willing to stay in the Flying Immortal Palace. Because Zhang Weizhao doesn't beat and scold people, if he makes a mistake, he will be punished at most, listen to a lesson, eat a lot of food, and learn skills, so he has a good time here.

Zhang Weizhao saw that no matter what their qualifications were, their learning attitudes were very correct, so he divided them into two groups, one group led by Mint and Shi Yan, and one group led by Nan Xing and Du Zhong.

For a while, the Wind of Flying Immortal Palace was very prosperous, and even the elderly Dao Gu Leng Window, Leng Yue and Leng Quan, who had been upgraded from the original Flying Immortal Temple to the Flying Immortal Palace, were also very hard-working. Their master Gu Yun was not so hypocritical and became much more amiable, so Zhang Weizhao asked her to take care of the girls' clothes, sleeping and food with Leng Window and Leng Yue, while Leng Quan was responsible for taking care of the lamps, candles, and charcoal fires. Everyone performs their duties, and the Flying Immortal Palace is well organized.

This winter, Chen Youcong is also busier than before. Chen Jianjun has to meditate and practice qi every day, rest on time at night, and rarely stay up late. All kinds of trivial affairs such as worshipping the heavens, worshipping ancestors, and receiving tributary envoys from Fanbang were handed over to Chen Youcong to take care of. Chen Youcong did a great job of completing these tasks, and his reputation for humility, low-key, and dedication not only spread throughout the court, but also left a deep impression on the envoys of various countries.

Zhang Weizhao and Chen Youcong didn't have much time to meet, but they were always paying attention to each other's movements. Zhang Weizhao is very proud of Chen Youcong. Chen Youcong is also in the same mood as Zhang Weizhao. Serious and dedicated people are very attractive, both men and women.

However, just when Zhang Weizhao thought that she could get through this winter smoothly, something unexpected suddenly happened. But this time, it wasn't Jin Guifei who was looking for trouble with her, but a fire in the backyard.

After the Dan Furnace of the Flying Immortal Palace was built, Chen Jianjun had personally come to see how the pill was refined. Different from what he had known before, the Dan room was not full of smoke and fire, but a bright fire and a fragrant medicine, which was very elegant and clean. Next to the Dan room, there is a small pharmacy dedicated to the Dan room, Zhang Weizhao personally grinds medicine and makes medicines in the small pharmacy, and does not fake his hands. Opposite the Dan room, there is also a quiet room, which is elegantly furnished, making people feel at peace as soon as they walk in.

Chen Jianjun likes the tranquility of this courtyard very much. In other words, he liked the atmosphere of the entire Flying Immortal Palace. It's all Kun Dao, and it's full of neatly dressed and talkative girls. The statue in the hall of the Queen Mother of the West is also very loving and dignified, he always feels that the statue of the Queen Mother of the West looks very kind, and the gentle smile can go straight to people's hearts, but he can't remember where he has seen it. But pondering the appearance of the immortal was very disrespectful, he thought about it for a while and then turned around this thought.

Therefore, Chen Jianjun would come to the Feixian Palace once every ten days and half a month, first to burn incense in the Sanqing Hall and the Queen Mother Palace, and then go to the Dan Room again to take the freshly baked pills, and then meditate and practice Qi in the meditation room opposite the Dan Room.

The breathing method that Zhang Weizhao gave to Chen Jianjun was actually not the true Taoist transmission that he learned from Zhang Rongkun, but from what she had learned in her previous life. This method of practicing qi was developed by Jack Confield, a doctor of clinical psychology in San Francisco, and is a blend of Buddhist Vipassana meditation and modern psychology. It is very helpful for reducing anxiety and improving awareness.

After he entered the quiet room, Zhang Weizhao went to work in the pharmacy diagonally opposite the courtyard, and Chen Jianjun's own attendant eunuch stood outside the door and waited.

There are usually three eunuchs who serve Chen Jianjun closely, Huai En, Chang Hong and Gu Lin. Huai En is the oldest and the highest-ranked, and is the palm print eunuch of the celebrant eunuch. Chang Hong and Gu Lin were in their thirties, and when they were in the prime of life, they were the eunuchs of the celebrant eunuchs.

According to Zhang Weizhao's understanding, Huai En should be the leader of the celebrant supervisor. Wang Zhi is the second-in-command, but as the commander of the West Factory, he acts confidentially and does not accompany Chen Jianjun every day. Chang Hong and Gu Lin are the third-in-command and fourth-in-command respectively.

Because it was not long after the New Year, it was the time of cold weather. When Chen Jianjun was meditating, the eunuchs who accompanied him had to stand outside the door and guard, Chen Jianjun sympathized with Huai'en and was afraid of the cold when he was old, so he didn't let him follow, but often brought Chang Hong or Gu Lin over.

On this day, Chen Jianjun took the pill and went to the quiet room to meditate, Zhang Weizhao was concocting medicinal materials in the pharmacy, and suddenly Gu Lin knocked on the door and came in. Today he took two little eunuchs to serve outside the meditation, and just heard His Majesty say inside that he was thirsty and wanted tea, so he specially came to pass the gift. Because Chen Jianjun didn't want ordinary tea, but Zhang Weizhao's own milk tea.

At this time, the Dayan people drank tea in a lot of ways. On the one hand, it retains the method of boiling tea handed down from the Tang and Song dynasties, that is, various colored petals and nuts are boiled together with tea leaves in boiling water, and the soup is drunk and all the ingredients inside are eaten. On the other hand, some people have begun to advocate the use of boiling water, saying that it can better preserve the fragrance of tea.

Chen Jianjun prefers the former method, and likes to put some sweet ingredients such as dried fruits and honey in the tea. By chance, after drinking Zhang Weizhao's homemade honey milk tea, he liked this rich and sweet taste very much, and wanted to have a cup from time to time.

Zhang Weizhao got up, swept away the medicinal crumbs on his body, washed his hands, and prepared to go to the tea room in the northeast corner of the courtyard to make milk tea.

However, as soon as he left the door of the pharmacy, he heard the sound of porcelain breaking suddenly from the quiet room opposite, followed by Chen Jianjun's shouting: "Are you all dead!?" ”
