The rumors of this thousand-year-old ginseng have long been boiling among the royal family and the princes.

When Wuzong Li Yan was still the king of Ying, he knew that the brother of Emperor Wenzong of the previous dynasty sought a thousand-year-old ginseng for Concubine Wang De to cure her illness. Later, Qiu Shiliang stirred up this matter, and heard that the general of the Shence Army had died.

The generals of the Shence Army not only have a super-first-class level of martial arts, but also most of them are of high quality, and they have never heard of the Shence Army doing anything and dying. The interception and killing of ginseng pickers and ginseng traffickers killed the general, which was not only a slap in the face to Qiu Shiliang, but also emboldened those who hated Qiu Shiliang in the world.

Although those generals died, Qiu Shiliang reluctantly covered it up in the name of disappearance, and secretly gave generous condolences to his family, so no one reported it to the Shence Army. Qiu Shiliang also restrained a lot because of this incident, and Li Yan, the son of heaven who he personally set up, was resourceful, and worked together with the prime minister to completely bring him down.

This thousand-year-old ginseng appeared again in the fourth year of his succession to the throne by Li Yan, and of course the Son of Heaven had to ask. He sat in the Hanliang Hall in the south of the Taiye Chi of Daming Palace, and the Queen Mother and Princess Nankang had already introduced the Junjun of Hanyin, and briefly understood the twists and turns of the thousand-year-old ginseng.

At this time, I saw two old men, a couple in the prime of life, and a general of the Genshin God Army kneeling below, and was furious: "Why did you sacrifice this thousand-year-old ginseng for five years? What should you be guilty of despising the king so much?"

Chai Zhi knew that the face of the monarch was going to die, so he was not in a hurry, knelt forward, and played loudly: "Your Majesty will calm your anger for the time being, and Rong Chen will listen to it in detail, if Your Majesty thinks that the ministers are indeed guilty, the ministers are at the mercy of the Holy Judgment." ”

"Tell me, I want to hear what kind of detailed story I heard?" Wu Zong eased his emotions slightly.

Chai said concisely and concisely, explaining the ups and downs of the 12 years since the acquisition of thousands of years of ginseng. The prelude reported the experience of inviting Bao Ginseng for seven years, and started from the fact that the escort Bao Shen was intercepted and killed by Qiu Shiliang, he fell into a trap, and Wu Ben was captured by Wei Lun.

Speaking of the master's rescue of Wuben Rank, the two of them got the treasure ginseng and were intercepted and killed, Yang Xu rescued the master, and formed the Nine Heroes by himself, looking for the whereabouts of the master, the stepmother persuaded Wei Lun not to intervene anymore, and the master looked for the whereabouts of the Wuben rank, until the death of the enemy Shiliang, the ministers and others dared to offer the treasure ginseng. and so on, and so on, and said it clearly in one breath.

In the end, Chai Zhi said in a loud voice: "Qiu Shiliang is flying high, even when the court is in charge, he will kill at will, not to mention hindering the Holy Hearing. At that time, don't say that the treasure is offered, and the treasure is tragically poisoned when it arrives in the territory of Datang, but fortunately, the ministers are fateful and desperately protect the treasure ginseng, so that the things that fall from the sky will eventually belong to Your Majesty. This is a testimony of His Majesty's reversal of the situation, and it is also a good omen of His Majesty's holy and martial arts, and it is also an auspicious fortune for the prosperity of the world. ”

The firewood department's "Bang Bang Bang" was heard, and the Emperor of Wuzong was first surprised, and then sighed very much, and finally Long Yan was happy, and laughed for a while.

Wu Zong got up and got down from the dragon chair and kissed the firewood department: "Chai Aiqing and all Aiqing are flat! You have protected the national treasure and suffered so much, I understand." The four generals of the god of death, Aiqing needs to call relevant people, etc., so that Dali Temple can ask for reasons and record the evidence of Qiu Shiliang's crimes. Tonight, a banquet will be held here, and all the heroes will enjoy the moon together. ”

Wu Zong was really wise, and took advantage of the performance of the treasure presenter to collect evidence of Qiu Shiliang's crimes. It seems that although the hussar general, the Duke of Chu, and the governor of Yangzhou, Qiu Shiliang, are dead, Tang Tianzi has not given up on this kind of evil man.

Wu Zong was interested in this thousand-year-old treasure ginseng, and asked in detail how Wuben Rank was dug up, how Lienanzhou protected Bao Shen, how Yang Rong defeated the general of the Shence Army, how Qi Diao Zhi was captured alive, how did the Chai Department fall into the trap and how did he form a righteous relationship with Li Ji and Pan Lang, and so on.

The recorder sitting in the corner recorded this duet clearly, and Wu Zong personally reviewed it, instructed Dali Temple to inquire in detail, and recorded the evidence of Qiu Shiliang's crime.

The Chai Department and Yang Rong led the master Lienanzhou, Wubenzhi, Qidiao Branch and everyone outside the palace, led by the inner attendant and the recorder, to Dali Temple to record confessions.

Before dusk, Qiu Shiliang's interception and murder case was clarified, and the chamberlain and recorder took them back to the palace.

Yu Luchai discussed with Master and Wu Benzhi, it seems that Wu Zong is indeed a saint tomorrow, and there will be basically no other problems for us. When he entered the palace again, he offered the treasure. The three of them agreed to offer the treasure by the firewood department. The three of them entered the palace again with Yang Rong, lacquer carving and Chongxin Nine Envoys.

On Wuzong's side, the imperial banquet has been arranged, and the Empress Dowager Guo Nianyun, the princess of Nankang Li Yan, and the prince of Hanyin County, Wei Qi, accompany the Son of Heaven, waiting for everyone to arrive.

The firewood department took out the sandalwood box from Li Ji's baggage, knelt down on Wuzong's knees, and everyone knelt in turn.

The leader of the Chai Department said loudly: "Chen Xiao Cavalry Captain Chai Bureau, Chen Bohai State Wu Ben Rank, Chen Bohai State Lie Nanzhou, Chen Xiao Cavalry Captain Yang Rong, Chen Cai Du Lieutenant, Kaibian Male Lacquer Carving Branch, etc., will worship our emperor again! The Mid-Autumn Festival in the prosperous era, Ruicai descends from the sky; rare treasure ginseng, from the Bohai Sea; treasure returns to the holy monarch, and righteousness is Yuanzai." The ministers will produce the thousand-year-old ginseng produced in the Bohai Kingdom, and specially dedicate it to the saints, wishing His Majesty that the dragon is healthy and long-lived, and that the country is safe and peaceful, and all directions are playing. ”

Ho, this kid can actually drag such a good rhetoric, Wu Zong was amazed. The chamberlain took the sandalwood box and handed it to Wu Zong. Yo, this sandalwood box is so long, the Son of Heaven didn't have time to take a closer look, and hurriedly called: "All Aiqing is flat, this is the sleeping palace, and etiquette is exempted." Come, let's look at the treasure together. ”

Everyone got up one after another, and Empress Dowager Guo and others also came around, three steps away from the Son of Heaven, to watch the Son of Heaven appreciate the treasures. Li Yan, the son of Huichang, slowly opened the gold wire tied to the sandalwood box, pulled open the sandalwood box, and peeled off the red silk, and the thousand-year-old ginseng appeared in shape.

I saw that its taproot was one foot five long, from reed to beard, the total length was three feet four, and in his hand, it was enough to have a pound and six taels. God, seven taels are ginseng, eight taels are treasures, this is really a rare treasure. The whole body is yellow-brown, the ring is fine, the reed is like the neck, shoulders, nose and eyes of the birthday star, the taproot is thick and strong, the two horizontal stretches and is strong, and the beard is bent, just like a birthday star lying on the royal case.

The Empress of Heaven and the princes and generals, who has never seen ginseng, but who has ever seen such a strange thousand-year-old ginseng? With the dignity of the Empress Dowager Guo's seven dynasties and five honors, she was stunned, trembling, and did not dare to speak.

Others didn't dare to speak out, and they closed their minds one by one, even if they lived in this life and this life, this addiction was not in vain.

After these experts tasted it, they were all so happy that they burst into tears, knelt down together, and congratulated: "Long live my emperor Hongfu Qitian, get this spiritual thing, the auspicious omen of the country, the world will be ruled greatly, and the people will be abundant!"

After they said this, Li Yan, the son of heaven, couldn't help but burst into tears, and immediately announced that the scholars entered the palace to draft the decree. According to this thousand-year-old ginseng from the Mengfu Mountain in the depths of the Wolf Mountain in the Bohai Sea, this thousand-year-old ginseng was canonized as "Mengfu Ginseng Immortal", and Mengfu Mountain was canonized as Mengfu Gong and given the name of Sanwang Mountain.

Canonized the hard search and protection of the Wood Department for 12 years as the Shangzhu State, the canonization of the Ju Guo Gong (from a product), the inspection of the Qingzhou Metropolitan Governor, the Bohai State Trade Observation and Disposal Envoy. Give a house in Baoning Fang, Chang'an City. The fiefdom of Ju Guo is naturally on the side of Mizhou, which is near the sea.

Give the "Ginseng Immortal Envoy" a gold medal side, with a purpose to do business. All the cities of the vassal states, prefectures, counties, etc., are exempt from taxation. Anyone who obstructs in vain will cut first and then play.

Yang Rong was awarded the lady of Juguo, and a gold seal of the Bibo Fairy was given to show the watch.

Because of the special marriage of the Chai Department, the Son of Heaven also remembered that Li Jun, who was rescued by the Chai Department, was the daughter of Li Yu, a famous general of Yuan and Zhongxing. Therefore, Li Jun was canonized as the wife of Tang State, and the fief was naturally in Tangzhou.

Canonized Lienanzhou as a protector, and awarded the founding marquis of Wofu County of Bohai State with his ancestral hometown, and gave a house in Xuanping, Chang'an City. Give the "Dongbao Divine Dealer" a gold medal, with a purpose to carry out business, and the Bohai Kingdom and the road to Chang'an Guanjin are exempt from taxation.

He was enshrined as the protector of Wuben, and was awarded the founding marquis of Tianjing County of Bohai State with his ancestral hometown, and gave a house in Chongde Fang, Chang'an City. Give the gold medal of "Bohai Sea Ginseng Farmers", and all states and counties will be good at guarding those who collect ginseng in the Bohai Sea. But there are obstacles, and the king of Bohai County is clear, and the punishment is increased.

The rest of the people, according to the size of the merit, in turn, Li Ji, Song Kai, Pan Lang, Li Yan, Chen Rui, Gan Ji, Li Bu, Wang Xun and other Chongxin nine envoys and lacquer carving branch, Wei Qi, Nankang princess, etc., one by one, each has a difference.

Generous rewards are given to everyone below the Firewood Department, and they are all different.

Among the seven young people in Yicheng, the Chai Department is the latest in business, but the highest achievement. One duke and two wives, this is a unique case in Datang. Could it be that his infatuation and emphasis on righteousness are also the advantages of business?

In fact, it is quite so. If according to ordinary people's thinking, Wu Benzhi dug up a thousand-year-old ginseng, he might not live long and would be killed. Even for the sake of exclusive interests, he will never worship anyone for the sake of protecting the ginseng. What's more, it is very likely that even Master Wofu Hou Lenan Prefecture is also a target of killing.

However, the state of Wofu Hou Lenan was well aware of the temperament of the Chai Agency, and it was not able to monopolize the interests, which contributed to such a great success.

If he saw that Chai was a cunning villain, he would not have taken him to dig up this thousand-year-old ginseng at all. Didn't you pay attention? After looking for him many times over the course of seven years, the Diesel Department finally took him to dig up this rare treasure.

When the miscellaneous reports of the Imperial Seal and Yang Rong spread all over the Tang Dynasty, the seven young people of Yicheng, the Eight Swords of Chaoge, and even the Hou Wenlie of Changyang, the Hou of Pingchang, the relatives of the Liangguo Mansion in Luoyang, and the Hou Chai Chao of Jaw Yang were all shocked when they heard the news.

Relatives and friends from all walks of life have come to Chang'an Ningfang Juguo Mansion to congratulate. From the Mid-Autumn Festival in August to the Shangyuan Festival of the following year, there is an endless stream of people who go to the road.

The rich have distant relatives in the mountains, and the poor in the downtown no one asks. What's more, the rich are in the downtown area, and there is naturally a lot of traffic in front of the door, with people coming and going, and the river is endless.

After all, the name of the swordsman is far and wide, and sooner or later he will be selected by the Son of Heaven and the Prime Minister.

When the emperor's uncle and King Guang Li Chen succeeded to the throne, he changed the Yuan Dazhong to Tang Xuanzong the following year. Xuanzong wanted to make a greater contribution on the basis of Wuzong, and in the first year of Dazhong (847), the Chai Department was selected as the history of Longzhou Thorn, and Longzhou was under the jurisdiction of the Fengxiang Jiedu envoy. The Son of Heaven was ready to use troops on a large scale to subdue the land occupied by the Tibetans.

At this time, the Ju Guo Gong Wood Bureau, the Ju Guo Lady Yang Rong, and the Tang Guo Lady Li Jun and his wife were all 43 years old. is in the prime of life with rich experience and strong body, will the uphill road in life continue to go?
