These days, Zhu Houcong took his master to practice alchemy and read books when he had nothing to do. There were still many good things in the palace, especially when Zhu Houcong asked Gu Dayong to pry up many large tombs.
It's a pity that it stopped later, otherwise there would be more good things in the back. It can only be said to be a pity, but it doesn't matter, they are all underground and can't escape.
Sooner or later these things belong to you, that is, sooner or later.
Of course, the value of commodities is determined by human needs. For these things, if Zhu Houcong said it is not valuable, then it is not valuable. If Zhu Houcong said that a stone is valuable, then it is valuable. Of course, if you want to do this,
, it will take some time.
The life of the old Taoist priest Chongxu was quite happy during this period. He felt that his head no longer hurt, his eyesight was no longer blurry, and even his cultivation had improved a lot. Here he found that his young apprentice was particularly leisurely, and he took care of official duties every once in a while.
That's fine, it's completely different from what he thought.
He also asked whether such a disciple could have insight into national affairs. The answer was no, of course not, but he did not need to worry so much. He only needed to find capable people to take charge of these matters, and then ensure that these people's minds
Nothing has changed.
"Then how can you guarantee that these people's hearts have not changed? After all, people's hearts are separated from each other." Chongxu was puzzled. Loyalty now does not mean loyalty for a lifetime. People will change.
"How should I put it? I can see it. Whether these people's hearts are still with me or not, I can tell at a glance. So our state of mind is not in vain, right?" Zhu Houhuang blinked and looked at the master.
Chongxu, this can be regarded as a gift. Having insight into people's hearts can reduce many problems.
"Well, what kind of realm is Xiantian?" Chongxu was a little curious. Wudang did have some records, but they were very immodest, and he didn't know what the situation was. Although he would never want to set foot in that realm in this life, but it was
Quite curious.
"My God, I really can't explain this. It's not that my apprentice won't tell you, but it's really difficult to explain. This realm is very wonderful, and there is a feeling of being detached from ordinary people, but I don't know how to explain this realm specifically.
To put it simply, it should be regarded as the first step to transcend ordinary people."
Zhu Houcong can only explain it this way. If he is still a mortal the day after tomorrow, he already has some intention to cultivate immortality innately. Although he is just a mortal, he already has some meaning.
"Is this like this? Forget it, even though the master has no hope of seeing the scenery above in his life, he has finally taught an innate disciple. It feels like a sense of accomplishment, right?" Chongxu could only do this.
I comfort myself like this, otherwise what else can I do? I am getting older, so it is basically impossible. Not everyone can be like Patriarch Zhang, who is still strong at 100 years old.
"Master, you're right to think so. Life is only a few decades, so you have to be more open-minded. If you don't have that talent, we won't force it, right? You can live here as an apprentice, and no one will kick you out. If you get annoyed, then
Just go out for a walk, and laugh if you accept me as your apprentice in this life." Although the master may have just complimented him politely, Zhu Houcong felt that he could bear such praise, and there was nothing wrong with him.
Chongxu rolled his eyes and said, "I would like to praise you. Your little tail is raised to the sky. Can't you be more humble? How could I teach you a disciple like you?"
"Hey, my master, your apprentice has such strength that I can't be humble, and you can't tolerate my humility, right? We have this strength, both civil and military, with both ability and political integrity. We also want to keep a low profile, but our strength doesn't allow it.
"Zhu Houcong raised his eyebrows. What he said is correct, right? No matter how injured the emperor is, there are always very few innate great masters. If the two are added together, it will be even less.
"Okay, okay, stop talking. I haven't said it yet. You can climb along the pole, so praise yourself first, right?" Chongxu was a little helpless, but there seemed to be no problem with what the apprentice said. The apprentice said
His talent and strength do not allow him to be low-key at all. With his identity, being low-key makes him fearful. It's just that this guy deserves a beating.
"Haha, let's just tell the truth. Come on, come on, I have got some unique Taoist books here. I will take you to see them, master. If you have nothing to do, come here to beat the autumn wind. The apprentice has a big business and is not afraid. The apprentice can't go out for the time being. You
If you miss me, you can come see me at any time." Zhu Houcong helped the old Taoist priest to go to the study room to look for books.
The conversation between the two was quite pleasant. Zhu Houcong originally wanted Master Liu to stay for a few more days, but the old man insisted on leaving and could not be persuaded no matter how hard he tried. What should we do? Let someone send him back. Although there was no war outside.
, a single page cannot be said to be peaceful, it would not be beautiful if something happened halfway.
Regarding Zhu Houcong's problem, although Chongxu did not put forward any constructive suggestions, he gave Zhu Houcong some ideas. Since you are afraid of being exaggerated, you should use the power of assimilation in your own power. No matter what you have come in,
I assimilate them into my own strength, no matter whether you are black or white, when you enter my territory, all colors must follow my instructions.
In this way, all the problems are solved, and there is no problem at all. As for the wrong path, that is nonsense. If I go astray, I will just create a path. As long as I continue to go down, it will be
Road.
However, this path full of independence is destined to be difficult. The first point is how to highlight your own power. Currently, your own power is still pure and flawless. Do you want to dye it black? The idea has been proposed, but how to implement it?
That's another question.
Although I don’t know how to implement the specific process for the time being, it is good to have this idea. Zhu Houcong believes that he will be able to solve this problem sooner or later. The problem is not big, and the big deal is to go back and continue on the current path.
"Master." Lu Fang woke up Zhu Houcong softly. Generally, this tone meant that something was wrong, but it probably wasn't something important. It might just be that he was in a bit of trouble.
"What's the matter?" Zhu Houcong raised his eyelids.
"Eunuch Ge Jing sent a letter about your mother. Look..." Lu Fang didn't know what to do. This is His Majesty's family matter. The most important thing is that His Majesty has an ambiguous attitude.
It was very difficult for him to handle.
Sure enough, when he heard the word mother, Zhu Houcong also fell into silence. He had been busy these days and almost forgot that this nominal mother had written a letter. What attitude should he take to face it?
Lu Fang waited quietly for His Majesty's response. He heard that His Majesty was sent to the mountain very early, and that King Xingxian left early. His Majesty's relationship with Prince Xing's palace was not deep, but it was only not deep. As far as he knew, it seemed that
His Majesty was sent to Wudang Mountain because of certain things, so His Majesty may be a little entangled. After all, they are not familiar with each other, but they cannot let go of their blood and family ties.
As for what the matter was, because it involved His Majesty, he did not continue to investigate and explore His Majesty's privacy. Wasn't he looking for death? He was not that stupid.
"Where's the letter?" Finally, Zhu Houcong spoke. This was the second time. Last time he sent Ge Jing back, but this time, he still had to face it after all.
"This is it, Master." Lu Fang quickly took out a letter and handed it to Zhu Houcong.
Zhu Houcong took it and was not in a hurry to take it apart and look at it. Let's leave it like this for now and wait until he has time to take it apart and look at it. Then we'll talk about it. We still need to deal with it a little bit.
"Is there anything else?" Zhu Houcong put the letter in his hand. His meaning was very clear. If you have nothing to do, you can go down. If you have something to do, just talk about it. Don't bother me here.
"Master, it's like this. King Yin and his family have been escorted to Beijing. Master, what do you think we should do with it?" Lu Fang did not step back. Delivering the letter was part of it. In fact, King Yin's matter was the main thing, although
It is a rebellion, but it is also a relative of the emperor, and it is better for His Majesty to personally punish him. At least a tone must be set, whether to let him die or let him live.
"That's it." Zhu Houcong tapped his finger on the table. He was not hesitating about how to deal with that guy. He was thinking about how to use this matter to involve other kings. This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, otherwise the opportunity would not be good.
You can't find someone to do it well. If you say you want someone to evacuate, just evacuate it. You always have to find an excuse, just like in the past wars. If nothing else, you should first find an excuse for yourself. This
Just call the teacher famous.
"The rest of the people go down and bring King Yin up. I have to take a look at the main culprit." Actually, it's not that he can't survive. He's not that much of a murderer, but it depends on whether he can cooperate. If
If he doesn't cooperate, then he can't be blamed. If this is not dealt with, everyone will shit on his head in the future.
"No." Lu Fang left in response. His Majesty just agreed, but he was afraid that Your Majesty would just leave everything to him. That was when he had a headache. He was not afraid of offending others, but was afraid of not being able to satisfy Your Majesty.
ah.
Soon, a tied-up man was brought in. Zhu Houcong gently waved his hand to Lu Fang and the others to leave. To be honest, although he didn't care much about this King Yin, this guy was indeed very courageous. Zhu Houcong still
Somewhat favorable.
After all, at this time, it is already a rare thing for someone to dare to jump out and fight for their own destiny. Although other people are dissatisfied, they are still just cowards. Forget it, and those who are cowards.
I really thought I was deaf and blind because I was covering my ears and stealing funds secretly.
When the army comes back, none of these guys can even think about running away. In fact, there is no need to wait for them to come back. Isn’t there still an army? It’s not just about holding these people in check. It would be better if King Yin cooperates, but if not
It will be difficult to cooperate.
It's not that it's difficult to handle, it just takes some effort, but it's impossible for those guys to run away.
"The guilty minister Zhu Sanyuan comes to see your Majesty. Your Majesty will live forever." Zhu Sanyuan is very honest. He has nothing to say about the success of the king and the failure of the bandits. Besides, he believes that your Majesty is here, and he believes that the country of Ming Dynasty will get better and better. As for his result, no one knows
never mind.
"I don't know whether I should call you uncle or brother, but it doesn't matter. There is no need. Tell me why you want to rebel. Has the Ming Dynasty ever been unkind to you, and have I ever been negligent to you?" Zhu Houcong
He squinted his eyes, looking stern and questioning.
"No, the Ming Dynasty has never treated us badly. It's just that Your Majesty, we ask ourselves, will you really let us old guys go? The guilty minister was just trying to protect himself. My son died, and the guilty minister was punished.
Your Majesty's attitude has been very clear. It's just that there are many people and children who keep deceiving themselves. They can endure it, but I can't. This is my last chance. I have no choice but to give it a try, even if I become their puppet.
"
What Zhu Sanyuan said made him burst into tears, as if he was a victim. Of course, from his point of view, he was indeed a victim. After all, his son died and he was still treated like this. How could he feel resentful?
Nature.
"Oh? Don't you have any other ideas, such as sitting on the dragon chair and enjoying the feeling of sitting on the world?" Zhu Houcong suddenly came to his ear, his voice was very tempting, this is the dragon chair
Ah, who doesn't want to sit for a while? Maybe at first this guy wanted to protect himself, but gradually, the purpose will naturally become different.
Zhu Sanyuan's expression was a little ugly. Well, he really wanted to dominate the world. He would have children in the future. As long as he had enough rights, he would have whatever he wanted.
"Haha, I actually admire you quite a lot. There are many people who want to oppose you. After all, I have made them a lot of money after several waves. I don't know how many people want to drink my blood and eat my flesh, but you are the only one.
People take action, no matter what, I still admire you very much, at least you dare to do it, some people dare to think but don't dare to do it."
Without waiting for Zhu Sanyuan to speak, Zhu Houcong said it directly, and at the same time, he helped Zhu Sanyuan up and helped him untie him.
Zhu Sanyuan was a little confused by Zhu Houcong's attitude. What was he doing in this pretentious manner? Did he have any intentions against him? It was completely unnecessary. He was just a fish on the eucalyptus board now. It just depends on how your majesty kills him. The whole
The whole world is being toyed with by him, so what tricks can he come up with?
"Don't think too much about it. I do appreciate you, but appreciation is appreciation. After all, you have done such a thing, and I will definitely not let you off easily. What do you think?" Zhu Houxuan smiled and helped Zhu Sanyuan take the photo.
He dusted himself off and looked very humane.
"It's not a pity that the guilty minister should die. I just don't know how your Majesty wants to deal with the guilty minister's family. Your Majesty has a mission, so it's not a pity that the guilty minister should die." Zhu Sanyuan was silent for a moment and then he knew what the emperor wanted to do. He was also very aware of current affairs.
Wang defeated the bandits, at least he could walk more comfortably.
Besides, those are the only things your Majesty wants to do. This is his Zhu family's world, so why not do it. He is still willing to contribute his part to your Majesty's ambitions.
