Chapter 697: True Immortal

The nineteenth year of Yingwu, spring

In the middle of spring in March, the bright green moss is covered with the city bricks, the spring grass stretches in the distance, the blue waves ripple the spring water, and the verdant willows bring the artistic conception of spring

In the distance, on the field, the dark green wheat fields stretch into the distance, and the people who go out in the countryside help the old and the young, pointing and laughing from time to time.

Children fly kites, and they are bustling.

In the imperial palace, Zhuge Liang stood on the steps, looking into the distance, only to see a few guards standing straight, exhaling, and pacing back.

It's been fifteen years, and I've been one of the most important ministers in the cabinet.

"After resting, if there is anything, just say it, and you will have to present it to Your Majesty later. "It was Prime Minister Xun Yu who spoke, Xu Shu (Lu Shangjing) had been the prime minister for ten years, and if he retired, Xun Yu would have to retire within a year.

"Xiangguo, the country is fine. Zhuge Liang bowed slightly, and said calmly: "Qiongqi, Yelang, Tubo, Goguryeo, Yingzhou, the Xiongnu banners, and they will pay tribute every three years." ”

"According to the old example, 300,000 taels of silver were imported. Speaking of this, he paused for a moment, and then said: "Last year's statistics, the state collected 1.7 million taels of taxes for dumping commodities from various countries, or it has reached the limit. ”

"However, the spring famine is coming, according to statistics, there may be a million stone grains for disaster relief, although the country is peaceful and prosperous, it is inevitable that this thing will be relieved, and those who can be relieved must be relieved. ”

Xun Yu looked up and thought for a long time, then smiled suddenly, and said, "That's right, these four Yi, the population is either hundreds of thousands, or millions, and the profits are limited!"

"Hu no one, Han Daochang, you can't expect Hu people to multiply for the sake of profit. At this time, Sima Yi said with a smile.

The two looked at each other and then parted again.

I am also a cabinet minister, but there is always something wrong.

Zhuge Liang thought for a long time and said, "That's what I said, but it's ......."

Before the words fell, there was a sudden "boom" of thunder, which shook the cabinet hall and trembled slightly, and I heard a shout in the distance: "It's raining!"

Everyone got up, stood on the steps and looked, only to see a line of black clouds in the distance, faintly thunder, raindrops swept through the thunder, and the sky became dark for a moment.

"Spring rain is as expensive as oil!" Xun Yucai smiled, his face changed suddenly, and he saw a lightning bolt in the sky, followed by a huge thunder, which made everyone's hearts shrink.

"Xiangguo, it seems wrong, the direction of the lightning strike is the main hall of the North Palace!" Zhuge Liang's face changed and he whispered.

"Someone, hurry up and ask to see His Majesty. Xun Yu stood still and looked at it, his face suddenly changed, and he said.

The main hall of the North Palace

"......Boom" thunder light fell on Ye Qing's body, and in an instant, the originally rich light green central dragon qi and the purple emperor's personal luck were separated and did not stop.

"Boom!" The next moment, I saw that Ye Qing's true color was just a red Dao qi, and he was suddenly stimulated, and a trace of yellow appeared, which quickly provoked a chain reaction, Ye Qing accumulated a huge amount of luck, and quickly transformed, only to see a "poof", a yellow gas rushed out, straight into a column.

Suddenly, in a Dao palace and five halls, the five saints all opened their eyes, and Nuwa was even more noble, faintly, the cyan color fluctuated.

"Your Majesty, you have achieved a true immortal!" she muttered, complicated and indescribable, theoretically achieving a true immortal is only from red to yellow, which is insignificant compared to dragon qi, but this is a power that only belongs to individuals.

One sword can block a million soldiers, and one body can fight for three thousand miles.

And the essence of the Five Saints is just a true immortal, with the blessing of dragon energy, the emperor's status is officially equal to it, and even surpassed, how can it not make her feel complicated?

In the main hall, the dragon qi dispersed, and the immortal light emerged.

"Husband......" Queen Xiaomi, Concubine Gan, and Diao Chan accompanied the attendants tonight, all of whom were alarmed by this thunder and lightning omen, and ran out nervously from the back dormitory.

When they saw Ye Qing come out, they all breathed a sigh of relief, and looked at him fixedly: "Your physical appearance ......"

With a wave of her hand, a bronze mirror on the side of the hall moved over silently and stood in front of Ye Qing.

In the mirror is a handsome young man, who seems to have returned to Liu Bei's youth, faintly, and with the characteristics of Ye Qing's body on the ground.

Ye Qing touched his chin and looked at it, and laughed: "This is probably ...... It's the appearance of a nineteen-year-old, and I'm at this age on the ground, and I'm returning to the time when men are at their most vibrant. ”

"Your Majesty, you ......"

The door of the palace shook again, Empress Dowager He, Concubine Wu, Concubine Sun, Mrs. Da Qiao, Mrs. Xiao Qiao, and Mrs. Wen Ji all arrived, and the concubines of the Han Dynasty were very high, and there were a few of them in the harem, and they had 19 years of abundant resources to practice, at this time they were all real people who cultivated, they all looked young and beautiful, and the most they had different levels of maturity, and many had virgin signs.

But at this time, looking at the emperor's young appearance, all the women were stunned for a while, and they didn't dare to recognize each other.

"What, the first time I've seen an immortal?"

The hall was bright, and the emperor's smile was the same as usual, but with a little youthful taste, which made the women's hearts skip a beat.

"It turns out that there is really a ...... for rejuvenation"

Empress Dowager He's expression was indistinguishable: "Ordered by the sky, both longevity and eternal prosperity...... What Qin Shi Huang sought but could not, His Majesty did. ”

Ye Qing shook his head: "I can only stay for three hundred years, this is the covenant of heaven...... Now there are two hundred and forty years left, and in fact, I'm afraid I'm going to leave next year. ”

"Where are you going?" Wu Yuan's face changed slightly, and her voice trembled a little, she ranked third among the concubines in the palace, but she was the only concubine who had a round room with the emperor.

has given birth to three sons and one daughter for the emperor, and now she is pregnant with another one in her belly, which is the age when women are most eager for companionship, how can she not worry about her man's abnormality?

If she really wants to fly up in a blink of an eye, she will cry and fall to the palace.

"Don't be afraid. Ye Qing smiled at Wu Amaranth, looked at Empress Dowager He, Empress Xiaomi, Concubine Gan and Diao Chan, nodded slightly, beckoned him to sit down, and smiled faintly.

"There are some things that have come to be explained to you......"

Explaining the things on the soil and the ground one by one, Ye Qing asked: "After I go back, there are still two hundred and forty years, and the descendants will have their own children and grandchildren, can they come up in the end, depending on their cultivation, I can't let hundreds of sons and thousands of grandchildren go up together." ”

"And you, I am prepared to take you to earth without waiting for two hundred and forty years, you have the right to choose, and there is still a year to go, so you can answer without hurrying. ”

The hall was silent for a while, all silent, and then looking at Ye Qing's eyes, he was a little evasive.

No wonder His Majesty never wanted us...... Cai Wenji secretly thought that her husband had another soul hidden in his body, although it had been like this since they met, and there was no zĂ i drop, but it also made her feel very strange in her heart.

"Is it his body, his soul, or the emperor, or even the immortals?" she thought.

Queen Xiaomi...... It was Qianqian who glanced at Ye Qing and opened her mouth to break the silence: "Your Majesty is already the body of the Immortal King, what should I do tomorrow morning?"

Ye Qing didn't care: "What should I do, just say that it is the unity of the immortal king, what am I afraid of?"

Ying Wu unified the world in five years, destroyed the Wuhu, and although the entire empire still maintained sporadic use of troops, it generally tended to build internal affairs.

The Han army "mediated" several battles with various flags in the grassland, except for the occasional news of the use of troops in the Western Regions, and the exploration of Yingzhou, the new big island of Yingzhou, the governor of the navy, nothing happened, and the wind and waves were calm.

The war in Liaodong was very subtle, continuous like water, just like Zhuge Liang's style of using troops, since the second year of Yingwu, he began to send troops in small groups to recapture the Han people who had been captured by various tribes of Goguryeo, and the result of continuous bloodletting was to make the enemy's dragon qi quickly weaken and seize the planting rights of the black soil deeply.

By the seventh year of Yingwu, Goguryeo surrendered, paid tribute, opened the country, allowed the garrison and dumped goods, and ceded the land.

Ye Qing pushed the boat down the river, ordered the expansion of the six counties in Liaodong, and established a port to and from Yingzhou on the Korean Peninsula, and the intention of reclamation of Liaodong was very obvious.

But to be honest, in the first few years of immigration, there was not much response from the people, and everyone was afraid of the bitter cold, and for a while they could only rely on prisoners to fill it, including the arid desert of the Western Regions.

In the following ten years, the government traveled thousands of miles, according to the Qin and Han traditions, with the east and west boundaries of Hangu Pass, and was directly exiled to Liaodong to farm, and Guanxi was directly exiled to the Western Regions to farm.

With the initial manpower support, Zhuge Liang's ability to show, the combination of soil kang, brick burning house, fire spirit steam engine, and blast furnace scale iron production soon opened up the situation, and the policy of distributing acres of land attracted many landless farmers to cultivate in the past, and there were always some who could not survive locally, so they could only seek adventures to the frontier.

In order to protect the local water and soil, but also to protect the horse breeding land, Ye Qing did not order to change the grassland to cultivated land, but introduced dragon horses from the East China Sea and joined them in the Western Regions for cross-breeding with sweat horses.

Sun Ce is not good at farming, but the means of restraining the various feudal states are good, everyone has a position suitable for their own play, Ye Qing has no other requirements for this cheap brother-in-law, he can basically complete the import of resources into the mainland, and at the same time, he can also use force to ensure the dumping of products.

Sun Ce is very competent in both aspects, and he can exceed the targets of the imperial court every year, and it is estimated that a lot of the means are blood.

The social revolution led to the production of large quantities of goods in the workshops, which were dumped and made a lot of profits.

The grassland, the Western Regions, and Zhou Yu's newly discovered Yingzhou are all dumping places for Ye Qing's products.

In the ten years after the destruction of the Murong clan in the Northern Wei Dynasty, for safety reasons, Ye Qing never went out of Luoyang again, and even rarely interfered in political affairs.

The Holy Son of Heaven ruled vertically, and Ye Qing's cultivation lasted thousands of miles.

By now, the prestige of the Son of Heaven is deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, and it is true that there is not much power to declare that he has achieved true immortality.

Among the important ministers, there are indispensable people from the earth, and they know it well, and many of the natives are above the real person, and they have some knowledge of the immortal way, so they will not resist much.

Thinking of this, everyone laughed, put their hearts at ease, and said, "Your Majesty is wise." ”

Seeing that everyone understood, Ye Qing smiled faintly, looked at one place from afar, and smiled: "I have achieved true immortals, I really don't know some people, how do they react?"

As he spoke, a blue light passed by, and the letter fell, Ye Qing beckoned, and when he saw it, he smiled: "Say that Cao Cao has arrived, Cao Cao has arrived, and all the saints have faith, since this is the case, I will follow the example of King Zhou Mu and the eight horses to go west to Kunlun, and personally go to the West Kunlun Cave is to go." ”
