Chapter 78 The chaos is not enough and the evildoer has not emerged yet
Chen Zhuo was a little excited, his voice became louder, and he almost shouted: "Sir, are you really going to release the Living Buddha?"
Mr. Wu nodded, "However, Mr. Tian said that he wants the other party to hand over your Uncle Wu's soul, and then find a way to reshape his body. If it is done, your Uncle Wu will not only be resurrected from the dead, but also cultivate his body."
Going one step further, it might be possible to cultivate the golden elixir seeds. If this is the case, it is his creation."
Chen Zhuo was stunned for a moment, and his previous anger for letting the living Buddha go suddenly disappeared. His eyes shone brightly, and he said excitedly: "Really? Really? Uncle Wu can come back from the dead? Is it really possible?"
Sensing Chen Zhuo's emotions at this time, Mr. Wu smiled faintly, and then said with a little worry: "As long as your uncle Wu's soul is still there and not broken, there will definitely be no problem in reshaping the body. After all, the Jiuluo Tianlong in Guangji Temple
The pagoda is not in vain, as long as the soul is not too unlucky, it can use the infinite magic power of Buddhism to reshape its body."
Chen Zhuo walked back and forth excitedly. At this time, he had forgotten all the living Buddhas and so on. As long as Uncle Wu could come back to life, even if a hundred living Buddhas were let go, he felt that it was nothing to regret. For him,
Nothing is more important than your Uncle Wu!
Mr. Wu added: "Although we have decided to release him, you must also keep an eye on those lamas. The more difficult it is to cause trouble at this time, the boy from the Chang family has put the emperor in a bad mood. If anything happens to these lamas,
If something happens again, it will be a disaster. Speaking of which, I didn't realize that the rich young man who was traveling with us was actually a relative of the emperor. Fortunately, we didn't drag him into the water, otherwise it would be difficult for the emperor to explain it.
.”
Chen Zhuo nodded repeatedly when he heard this!
At this moment, someone came running all the way from outside.
Chen Zhuo and Mr. Wu have both cultivated their true energy, and their ears and eyes are sharp. They immediately frowned. The sound was too anxious. Could something have happened?
Chongzhen opened his eyes in the early morning, and then sat up with his head covered with a headache. He had been suffering from insomnia for a long time. He had never had a full night's sleep since he had carried the entire Ming Dynasty on his shoulders. All the officials and ministers knew about him.
He gets up when the rooster crows, stays awake all night, and works extremely hard. There is never any entertainment in the palace. His hard work is known to the world!
He really couldn't be happy. The country in front of him was full of desolation, with patches and loopholes everywhere. Even if he had three heads and six arms, he couldn't stop it.
But he still firmly believes that he can continue to pass on this country. He feels that he should not be a king of subjugation. From the history books, he knows what a king of subjugation should look like. He is not like that. He must work hard to rule.
, plug all the loopholes in the Ming Dynasty. We don’t need the country to last for tens of thousands of years, but we still need it for eight hundred years, so that we can compare with the Zhou Dynasty under the rule of saints!
Although he knew that the Sheji that existed for more than 300 years in history had always been in legends. In fact, it had been more than 200 years since the founding of the Ming Dynasty. It was nearly 300 years ago. It was already considered a rare dynasty with longevity, but he still didn't
Be willing, this country was conquered by Taizu, at least it cannot be thrown away in his hands, nor in the hands of his son, nor his grandson, he will not be able to take care of his great-grandson, so that even if he dies, he will have dignity.
See Taizu.
Chongzhen stared with a pair of dry scarlet eyes, and it was still dark outside the window.
The room was even darker, and this dark atmosphere made Chongzhen feel suffocated.
"Hold the lamp!"
As Chongzhen's slightly hoarse voice sounded, rustling voices sounded from all around, palace lanterns were lit one after another, and the room gradually became brighter, more majestic, and warmer!
Chongzhen blinked hard, lifted the quilt and stood up. An old eunuch next to him came over and whispered: "Your Majesty, it's still early, please sleep a little longer."
Chongzhen didn't speak. The little eunuch next to him glanced at the old eunuch, and then began to change Chongzhen's clothes, putting the clothes on Chongzhen layer by layer.
The old eunuch sighed slightly in his heart, but still said in a low voice unwillingly: "Your Majesty, even if you are made of iron, you cannot exercise like this. State affairs are important, but your dragon body is the most important thing."
Chongzhen still didn't speak, but there was a look of impatience on his face. The old eunuch felt a chill in his heart, and he didn't dare to continue talking. The old eunuch couldn't help but laugh with resentment in his heart. If he hadn't talked nonsense in front of the emperor,
The emperor's mood will not be so bad. In the past, the emperor would go to bed at the third watch and get up close to the fifth watch. Now he falls asleep at the fourth watch and wakes up in less than an hour and is tossing and turning in bed.
Chongzhen let the palace maid carefully tie up his long hair, and suddenly said: "Where is the Immortal Master?"
"What's the matter, Your Majesty?" A faint voice sounded from the air, and then the figure of an old man with a crystal ruler hanging from his waist appeared next to a table in the palace.
Chongzhen hesitated for a moment, waved his hand, and the young eunuchs and maids who were busy around the emperor retreated one after another.
In a short time, only Chongzhen and the old man were left in the house.
The old man sat on a big chair naturally. When there was no one else around, there was no need to maintain the emperor's dignity.
The palace maids and eunuchs retreated, and he seemed to have taken off his disguise a little. Chongzhen's back was slightly slumped. He blinked his sore and dry eyes due to lack of rest and said, "I had a dream!"
The old man glanced at Chongzhen and said calmly: "Everyone dreams. The colorful and chaotic dreams are a reflection of daily moods. People with a peaceful mind will not dream!"
Chongzhen smiled bitterly and said: "My heart is indeed restless!"
"Why don't you follow me to practice the Tao of Heaven? This world is an abyss. If you fall down, you will never recover. How about the people, why should you care about them? As long as you are willing to practice the Tao of Heaven with me, I guarantee that you will live for three hundred years.
!”
Chongzhen sighed slightly, "It's good to live longer, but you have to die eventually. If I abandon this country and ignore it, how will I see my ancestors after death?"
The old man sneered and said: "I have told you that people in this world are dead when they die. The soul can exist for a while, but after a hundred years, they will all be scattered without a trace. Your ancestors will be long gone by now."
I don’t know where they drifted to, but you won’t be able to see them if you die.”
"After all, I feel sorry for this obstacle in my heart! If I clean up this mess, I will go with the immortal master to seek relief."
The old man sighed and said: "You are very similar to your ancestors, especially that guy Zhu Chongba! He used to get up early and go to bed late like you, and he was very diligent!"
Chongzhen's eyes were a little dim, and after a while he said, "I dreamed that someone wrote the word "you" in my hand!"
The old man glanced at Chongzhen and said, "Dreams are caused by confusion and have no predictive value!"
Chongzhen didn't seem to listen, and his back slumped a little more and said: "Yes, this yes, it should be two characters. On the top, there is a big character missing one stroke, and below, it is a clear character missing half a stroke. Does this mean that I am going to Ming Dynasty?
How about less than half?”
The old man did not speak, and Chongzhen continued to mutter to himself: "If half of it is missing, the country will not be destroyed. Why does that Da Le of the Chang family say that my Ming Dynasty will be destroyed? What nonsense, and his heart is to be punished! I want to summon him
, arrest him and interrogate him!" After speaking, Chongzhen became excited and clenched his fists tightly.
The old man still didn't speak.
After a while, Chongzhen slowly sat on the bedside, his clenched fists slowly relaxed, and the frequency of his chest rising and falling gradually eased.
The old man said: "When a country is about to perish, there must be monsters. Your Majesty, have you found the monsters there?"
Chongzhen's eyes were dull and he shook his head, "Since I came to the throne, there have been severe droughts year after year. It is now the third year. Although those officials also talk about severe droughts, they are just talking about the red land thousands of miles away and the refugees everywhere.
Or something, no one has ever told me that my people have exchanged their sons and eaten them, and their bones are everywhere. Master, is this really true? I saw men, old people, children, and women everywhere being eaten.
Are you hungry?"
The old man's eyes flashed, but he nodded without speaking.
In an instant, Chongzhen's whole body collapsed. After a long silence, he slowly said: "Maybe I am this evildoer, otherwise why would there be severe droughts as soon as I ascended the throne?"
The old man stood up and said: "This is wrong. You are the destined emperor, so naturally you cannot be a monster. From my point of view, there are no monsters in this world, so your Ming Dynasty has not yet reached the point of subjugation!
"
When Chongzhen heard this, his eyes flashed fiercely, his whole body suddenly became energetic, his back straightened up and he said: "Then it's the boy from the Chang family who is talking nonsense! It disturbs my mind, I want to kill him! I want to kill him!
Kill him!"
The old man said calmly: "Maybe what he said is right!"
When Chongzhen heard this, he felt as if he was struck by lightning. His eyes were fixed on the old man, and the expression on his face still maintained a furious mood.
"The reason why evildoers have not emerged is often because there is not enough chaos. Emperor, do you understand what I am saying?"
Chongzhen blinked and shook his head, "Are you saying that my empire is indeed going to perish?"
The old man laughed at himself and said: "Who dares to say what will happen in the future? There are infinite variables in this world. What will happen in the future can vary by thousands of miles. The so-called predictions are endless!"
"What do you mean?"
The old man smiled and said: "You can figure it out yourself!"
After speaking, the old man quietly disappeared into the house.
Chongzhen was left standing there blankly.
"The reason why evildoers have not emerged is often because there is not enough chaos."
"The reason why evildoers have not emerged is often because there is not enough chaos."
"The reason why evildoers have not emerged is often because there is not enough chaos."
Chongzhen muttered this sentence repeatedly. After a while, Chongzhen's eyes suddenly lit up and he said slightly excitedly: "I understand! As long as there is not enough chaos, the evildoers will not appear. I just need to wipe out this chaos."
If it is flat, then there will never be a monster born in this world! Yes, yes, that’s what it means!”
Chongzhen walked back and forth in the large room excitedly, "I have to be more diligent. As long as I am more diligent, I will eventually be able to smooth out this chaos! Yes, yes! People come, people come! Get the memorial. I will give it later.
Follow me wherever I go..."
The old man watched Chongzhen's every move, but sighed slightly, and then came to the roof of the palace, looking up at the sky, not knowing what he was thinking or what he saw.
Chongzhen is very happy today. In his opinion, everything is still under control. There are no monsters in the world. The chaos is not enough. If the chaos is calmed down, the monsters will be stillborn, and his country and the country can still be stable.
He is not afraid of the hard work of Zen spirit, but what he is afraid of is the helplessness of being unable to recover despite all the hard work. Since the immortal masters who followed Taizu to conquer the country all said that the evildoers have not yet appeared, then he is not afraid, he
Have confidence and rely on your own diligence to turn the tide!
Everything is still under control.
Chongzhen was full of energy. Although he only slept for an hour, he did not feel tired at all after reviewing the memorials in the palace all morning.
I don't know when Empress Zhou came to Chongzhen with a bowl of lotus seed soup. After waiting for Chongzhen to approve a memorial, she softly said: "Your Majesty, it doesn't matter to you, but your stomach will definitely not be able to bear it.
"
Chongzhen was in a good mood, and Queen Zhou was the only person who could walk in so quietly when he was reviewing the memorial.
Empress Zhou is from Suzhou. Her father, Zhou Kui, makes a living by fortune-telling in the bustling Qianmen Street. Her family is very poor. Empress Zhou, like Concubine Chang, married Chongzhen when he was still King Xin. At that time, he was Empress Yi'an.
As the eldest sister-in-law and surrogate mother, the Zhou family was selected from many candidates. It can be said that Queen Zhou is a commoner queen and is more popular in the court.
Chongzhen glanced at Queen Zhou. In a good mood, he patted Queen Zhou's hand, opened his mouth and said, "Feed me!"
