Chapter 7: Fifty more boards

Zhong Yangming didn't hide the matter of cultivating immortals from Qing Xuan, after all, he was a personal maid, and he couldn't hide it.

The so-called adversity sees the truth, and there is no complaint with a degraded prince, and the loyal Qingxuan is worthy of the word loyalty.

The two have been together for more than ten years, and she is also qualified to know the secret.

I just don't know how she will react when she hears about cultivating immortals?

Qing Xuan's mouth opened wide, revealing a shocked expression, and then he held back a sentence: "Your Highness is too powerful!" You've become an immortal?! ”

Well, jubilation is a normal reaction.

"I won't have to go far to chop wood in the future!"

Zhong Yangming: ......

Isn't it, that's it?

"You just think of chopping wood, nothing else? Aren't you interested in cultivating immortals? Zhong Yangming asked.

Qing Xuan said with a confused expression: "Ah, interest? Does Your Highness mean that I want to learn this too? ”

Zhong Yangming laughed angrily at her tone, and asked rhetorically, "You're not happy, are you?" ”

Qing Xuan squirmed and said, "It's not that I'm not unhappy, if Your Highness gives orders, I will do any work." But His Highness knows, I'm stupid, I can do chores, I don't even know a few words, when His Highness asked me to read, I saw it fall asleep every time......"

Zhong Yangming hurriedly stopped: "No, no, the point is not this, becoming an immortal is immortal, don't you want to?" ”

Qing Xuan smiled and said: "Of course, but isn't that His Royal Highness, in the story, it is said that a person who has attained the Tao of chickens and dogs ascends to heaven, and chickens and dogs can follow immortality, and I, Qingxuan, have followed His Highness for so long, is it not as good as chickens and dogs?" Even if Your Highness ascends, you won't leave me, right? So I'll just have to wait, don't you think that's the reason? ”

Zhong Yangming: ......

Looking at Qing Xuan's little fox's smile when he stole the chicken, Zhong Yangming didn't know how to describe this little girl. Let's say she's smart, such a good opportunity is in front of her but she doesn't fight for it, call her stupid, she is right, if she really succeeds in cultivation, how can she lose her benefits.

Seeing Zhong Yangming's speechless appearance, Qing Xuan grinned and said, "Your Highness, continue to cultivate, I'll go clean up the house, this branch is messy and ugly, it has to be pruned." ”

Seeing the little girl's busy appearance, Zhong Yangming could only smile helplessly.

That's it, his cultivation has just begun, and I'll talk about this later, at least until he lights up all the ninety-five natal stars of Jiaosu.

Meditate, practice, repair houses......

Under Qing Xuan's various requirements, all the mana Zhong Yangming's cultivation was used to transform the living environment.

First of all, the original single room of the broken wooden house was doubled, and the original single room became Zhong Yangming's room, and then the front yard and back yard were divided, and the kitchen was ...... Anyway, according to the residence in the palace, the layout is several times smaller.

In order to facilitate the little girl to fetch water for cooking, Zhong Yangming also went to the mountain spring in a high place, and used his magic power to give birth to a water tank, so that the mountain spring water could flow directly into the kitchen tank, and the extra would automatically flow down the trough to the backyard for washing clothes.

When the sun set and dusk, he finally got his new home ready, and looking at this beautiful garden cottage like a fairy tale, Zhong Yangming also felt a sense of accomplishment.

Qing Xuan stood in the front yard full of flowers and said with emotion: "Oops, I'm tired." ”

"If you're tired, you just move your mouth, it's me who does it!"

Qing Xuan crossed his waist and said proudly: "Your Highness, you don't usually say that those who work hard are the most tired, I can put my mind to it." ”

Zhong Yangming couldn't refute that the design of the new home was indeed Qingxuan's most thoughtful.

Zhong Yangming discovered for the first time that Qingxuan was very proficient in housework, taking care of every detail, and how to design it to save effort and time was the first thing to say.

In the palace before, there were several little maids under Qing Xuan to help, Zhong Yangming only thought that she knew how to call people, but he didn't expect to do it so beautifully, she was really talented.

The house was built, and Zhong Yangming was not idle, and continued to start his cultivation while the sun had not completely set.

Qingxuan also happily began to clean up, it is not enough to build a house, if you want to live comfortably, you have to pick it up.

The master and servant were at ease on the mountain, but the news that Zhong Yangming abolished Zhou Miaohua with one punch had already spread.

Everyone was shocked, this sixth prince was too arrogant, and he was relegated to a mysterious view by the emperor, not only did he not behave in a low-key manner, but he even did something that seriously injured his fellow disciples.

You must know that Zhou Miaohua is the son of the military department.

Early the next morning, above the court, the gray-haired military department Shangshu walked out under the gaze of hundreds of officials.

"Your Majesty, the minister has something to play."

Zhong Xianlong, the emperor of the Qianchao Dynasty, sat on the dragon chair and said in a tired voice: "What does Aiqing have to play?" ”

Although His Majesty the Emperor is in strong shape, his face is sallow, his eyes are deep, and his spirit is not very good. In recent years, natural and man-made disasters have continued, which has cost him a lot of attention, and a person who is only fifty years old looks like he is seventy or eighty years old.

"Back to Your Majesty, the old minister wants to sue the six princes, he sneaked up on and injured people in the Xuanxuan Temple yesterday, and broke the dog's arms, and the injuries were extremely serious......"

Hearing this, Zhong Xianlong interrupted the words of the military department in confusion.

"Zhou Aiqing, what are you kidding. That rebel has just been beaten fifty boards, and now I'm afraid I can't even get out of bed. ”

Fifty boards, if you change a warrior in the army to be beaten, it will also end up with a broken tendon and fracture, it is difficult to say whether Zhong Yangming can survive, and it is not surprising that he will be disabled.

Speaking of this, Zhong Xianlong couldn't help but ask: "I heard that Zhou Aiqing's son is the highest martial artist among the Miao Zi generation, and the rebel will only be lazy when he practices martial arts on weekdays, how can he hurt others?" ”

Zhong Xianlong's words made all the officials in the court look at each other.

The truth is such a truth, they all saw that Zhong Yangming was beaten half covered in blood, and they all applauded in their hearts at that time.

It's only been two days, and he's jumping around?

At this time, the crown prince walked out and knelt in front of the emperor with a plop.

"Ask my father for forgiveness, it was the son who couldn't bear the suffering of the emperor's brother, and quietly ordered the guards to save their strength, although it looked like they were covered in blood, but in fact they were only skin injuries. I didn't expect that it would cause trouble, and I asked my father to punish him. ”

His Royal Highness the Crown Prince slammed his head on the ground, and the sound hurt to hear.

When Zhong Xianlong heard this, he roared angrily: "What a boldness, I haven't died yet, you dare to disobey the yang and the yin!" Come on, drag this rebel down too, a hundred rods! ”

When the hundreds of officials of the court heard this, they immediately rushed out one by one to intercede for the prince.

"Your Majesty, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is the prince of the country, and he cannot be punished lightly!"

"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is just kind-hearted, and he can't see his brother suffer."

"I rule the country with filial piety, and the prince is not guilty!"

……

After arguing for a while, Zhong Xianlong impatiently shut up the hundred officials, and then coldly threw down a sentence: "The prince made his own opinion, fined him for half a year, and the guards in charge of the execution beheaded the whole family." ”

The fine for half a year is almost equal to no punishment, and the prince does not rely on Yulu to eat. As for the punishment of the guards, the officials of the court should not hear it.

The emperor is so angry, he has to find a punching bag, doesn't he?

Therefore, all the officials of the court shouted in unison: "Your Majesty's forgiveness is a blessing for the world." ”

At this time, the military department Shangshu and the prince quietly glanced at each other, and the latter nodded secretly.

Taking advantage of the fact that those touting voices came to an end for the time being, the military department Shangshu continued: "Your Majesty, the matter of the dog's injury still needs Your Majesty to uphold justice. Since the punishment that the six princes should have received has not been carried out, the ministers dare to ask Your Majesty to beat the fifty boards again, so that it can be regarded as a canonical punishment. ”

Zhong Xianlong waved his hand impatiently and said, "According to what Aiqing said, I will beat that rebel son another fifty boards!" ”

The hundred officials said in unison: "Your Majesty is wise! ”
