Chapter 65
Qingxu Dao Chang has been in the wind and water recently.
In order to gain the emperor's trust, the pills he dedicated to the emperor are the best, not only can the dragon and the tiger be fierce, but also can consolidate the foundation of Peiyuan, the emperor is very satisfied, and he is increasingly dependent on him, and he has built a big alchemy room in the palace. As for the elixir that the prince said about damaging the roots, he must always start offering it after the emperor has convinced him.
However, Qingxu's heart has always been a little uneasy, he is alchemy for the emperor, and he is the person recommended by the prince, and at the most fundamental he is the person of the king of Yu, if the prince and the king of Yu let him do diametrically opposite things, he naturally wants to listen to the king of Yu, but how not to anger the prince, it depends on his own ability.
No, the prince came to him.
"The Taoist has been quite idle lately." The prince looked at Qingxu with a smile, since he entered the palace last year, it has been more than half a year, he hasn't done anything with Qingxu, this is the first time, but to see if he can help himself do it.
Qingxu gave a Taoist salute, "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince said that he was laughing, Poor Dao has been refining pills all day long, where can I be idle?"
His Royal Highness the Crown Prince waved his hand, he was a high-ranking prince, no matter how powerful Qingxu was, he was also a subordinate, and he couldn't beat around the bush, "Dao Chang Bang Gu thinks about it, what is the reason for restraint to send a person far away?" ”
Qingxu was stunned for a moment, "Then it depends on who His Royal Highness the Crown Prince wants to send away?" Is it a man or a woman, what is the age, and what is the relationship with the nobles who are mutually restrictive? ”
"King Yu, send him as far away as possible, preferably to the kind of place where it takes a year or two to go back and forth." When he leaves, he can start with that perfect little girl, as for what to do when he comes back, it is estimated that the little girl will not dare to tell him, even if he does, he has no power and power, and he is not liked by his father, and he can't do anything to himself.
Qingxu's heart jumped, King Yu had just passed a message to him, and the prince came to him, but fortunately, the requirements of these two people coincided, one wanted to send people away, and the other wanted to leave himself, so he didn't have to be embarrassed. Qingxu stroked his beard and pretended to think for a while, "King Yu is the prince, if you want to send him far away, then he has to be the emperor." This is mutually reinforcing, in addition to the poor road, Qin Tianjian will also look at it, and it is easy to expose flaws. It is better to say that the emperor is unwell and needs blood relatives to pray thousands of miles away. ”
The prince waved his hand impatiently, "You can use any rhetoric to do it, and send him out as soon as possible." ”
Qingxu asked again: "I don't know where His Royal Highness the Crown Prince wants to send him, this blessing also has a special direction, and it is best to be due east and west with Kyoto." ”
Kyoto is in the east of the land of Daqi, the east is not far to the sea, the west is vast, Kyoto is west, thousands of miles away...... "Then the canopy leaf in the west, it happens to be the fief of the fourth, and the reason is better at that time." "The canopy leaf is far away, and it will take half a year to come and go, and it will take a year to delay a little on the road, and one year is enough to achieve your wishes.
It went so well! Qingxu was secretly proud in his heart, he finally led the prince to take the initiative to say the destination of King Yu's picture, and now the prince and King Yu's requirements for him are completely the same, "Then please ask His Royal Highness the Prince to stay for a few days and wait for the poor road to be arranged." ”
"Not too long." The prince admonished, turned around and left, he wanted to go to his secret garden to relieve himself, recently thinking about the little girl every day, making himself angry, but Ye Fu hated him for not saving Ye Chengxun, and said that he was filial, and sent someone to summon him several times and did not come. In fact, Ye Fu is fourteen years old this year, and he has passed the age he likes, and the reason why he called Ye Fu is also to think that he is a cousin with that little girl, and see if he can find a little shadow of Ye Qian in her.
After a few days, the emperor always had a headache in the morning, sometimes light and sometimes severe, so that the imperial doctor could not find out what the reason was, and he did not get better at all after taking medicine. But a group of courtiers suffered, the emperor's temper was very bad in the early dynasty, and they were so scared that they didn't dare to do anything, it was not a particularly urgent matter, so they simply suppressed it, and waited for the emperor to be in a better mood.
After the early dynasty, I still have to see a large stack of folds, even if the emperor is uncomfortable, he is not willing to let the prince help him approve the folds, this is all rights, and it cannot be given to others. Enduring the headache, the emperor sat down behind the dragon case and took a fold.
Qingxu sent a small chamberlain and sent the pill he had just practiced. The chamberlain handed the pill to the chief manager beside the emperor, and instead of leaving in a hurry, he secretly glanced at the emperor a few times.
The emperor was upset and irritable, and the red pen in his hand slapped heavily on the dragon case, and the chief manager was startled and reprimanded: "Bold, dare to peep at Tianyan!" ”
The little chamberlain was so frightened that he knelt down and kowtowed like pounding garlic, "No, it's not a slave who wants to peep, it's the Taoist ......"
Hearing him talk about the Qingxu Daoist, the chief manager is not good at teaching him a lesson, after all, the emperor still relies on the Qingxu Daoist very much, "What's wrong with the Daoist?" ”
The little chamberlain was so frightened that he stammered, "It was the Taoist Chief, the Taoist Chief, who let the servants peep, said yes, said that it was the emperor's order to commit a crime, a prisoner...... What's coming, let the servants see if there is anything uncomfortable in the emperor. ”
The emperor's heart moved, he had a headache these days, and he was getting more and more uncomfortable, but the imperial doctor was helpless, could it be that he had committed something? "Hurry up and summon the Void Dao Chief!"
Soon, the Qingxu Daoist came, his beard was white, and he wore a plain Taoist robe on his body, which became more and more elegant, just looking like a master outside the world.
Giving the emperor a salute, Qingxu sighed, "Poor Dao calculates that the emperor will be unwell these days, and sure enough, the emperor is the murderer this year-"
"Don't care about what you do, the Taoist chief hurry up and solve my headache." The emperor just had a headache, where did he have the patience to listen to his explanation, he just wanted to get rid quickly.
"Poor Dao expected that the emperor would be uncomfortable earlier, and he practiced a furnace of pills in advance, which can restrain this situation, but it treats the symptoms but not the root cause." Qingxu said, took out a beautiful jade box from his arms, and the chief eunuch hurriedly took it and held it to the emperor with both hands.
Regardless of whether the root cause is cured or not, the symptoms will be cured first. The emperor immediately took a pill, the pill was different from the usual one, with an exceptionally cool breath, as soon as he took it, the headache was relieved.
The emperor leaned comfortably on the back of his chair, "Tell me, what is the symptom but not the root cause?" And how to cure the root cause? ”
Qingxu said: "The emperor's headache is extremely difficult to cure, if you don't care, the pain will stop for three hundred and sixty-five days, and it will get worse day by day." The elixir can be suppressed temporarily, but at most for a year, it will still have an attack by this time next year, and even if there is an elixir, it will not be able to suppress it, and it will continue to hurt for a year, which is a symptom but not a cure. ”
The emperor was taken aback, it was only a few days earlier, and it had already hurt him to be grumpy, if it got worse day by day and lasted for a year, would it be okay? "Then the Taoist chief said, how to cure the root cause?"
Qingxu stroked his beard, "If you want to cure the root cause, you need to practice the poor road in the palace on the next two days of the autumn equinox and the spring equinox, and the emperor must personally burn the spirit talisman of the poor road system thousands of miles away due east or west." As long as the method is done in turn, after the day of the autumn equinox, the emperor will no longer need to take the suppressed pill, and the spring equinox will be completely solved by doing it again. If this year's autumn equinox can't catch up, then next year's spring and autumn equinox must be chosen. ”
"Thousands of miles away?" The emperor sighed, "How is this possible?" How can I leave Kyoto thousands of miles away, let alone the autumn equinox and the spring equinox, so wouldn't I have to stay outside for a year? ”
Qingxu pondered for a moment in embarrassment, "It doesn't have to be the emperor himself, as long as it is a blood relative of the emperor, it is okay to bring a personal thing from the emperor and pray for the emperor." He can't directly point out that let King Yu go, the people on the throne are always suspicious, and it's not good for the emperor to suspect that he has ulterior motives, anyway, there are four princes in total, if it wasn't King Yu at that time, he would have found a reason to restrain him.
This is much simpler, the emperor breathed a sigh of relief, he has three sons, no, four sons, just send one to thousands of miles away, it's only May now, if you leave quickly, you can still catch up with this year's autumn equinox. "Then ask the Dao Master to make the spirit rune as soon as possible, and I will send someone to thousands of miles away in the near future."
"Poor Dao, let's prepare." Qingxu retreated.
Who will you send? The emperor fell into deep thought.
The crown prince is the prince of a country, and he must not leave Kyoto easily. King Rui still has to check and balance each other with the crown prince, and he can't leave. King Sankang can, but the prince also needs him. As for the old fourth king Yu......
The jade concubine was snatched by him from others, and when he got it, the jade concubine was not complete, he was quite regretful, but he was helpless, who let himself meet her so many days late. According to the insurance practice, he should wait for Concubine Yu to pass once before summoning her to bed, so that the child born by Concubine Yu will definitely be his. But Concubine Yu was so beautiful, he was shocked when he saw it, how could he wait, regardless of Concubine Yu's desperate resistance, he spoiled her that night.
The result was so coincidental, the jade concubine did not arrive, and she was pregnant. No one can tell who this child is. Even if the imperial physician can calculate the pregnancy period, it refers to a decaying water cycle, and in the same cycle, no matter how clever the imperial physician is, he will not be able to judge it.
He also thought about letting Concubine Yu have a miscarriage, but Concubine Jade guessed his mind and begged bitterly, saying that as long as the child was born, she would serve him wholeheartedly. This condition is really moving, Concubine Yu was forced by him, if she can stay by her side obediently, then of course it would be good.
The emperor agreed. Anyway, Concubine Yu is talking about the birth of a child, not the living. You must know that the children in the palace are the most likely to die, even if they are born, it doesn't mean that they can grow up, it's a big deal, let the child have an accident.
Who knows, that child was born very similar to him, especially the phoenix eyes, which are exactly the same as himself. The emperor naturally couldn't do it, and in this way, King Yu grew to sixteen years old.
But the emperor has always had a pimple in his heart. Now there is a great opportunity, didn't Qingxu say that he wanted a blood relative, then send the fourth child. If after the autumn equinox, he doesn't have a headache when he stops taking the pill, then he is his biological son. If you still need to take the suppressed pill after the autumn equinox, then send King Kang over and quietly kill the fourth child outside, and then do it at the spring and autumn equinox next year. In this case, it is just to take more pills for half a year.
