The white mist in the clean room gradually rose, and Lu Yan leaned back and leaned on the barrel wall. Immediately, an unstoppable drowsiness struck him, causing him to close his eyes involuntarily.
The whole person seems to have fallen asleep...
=============
Yuanqing seventeen years, early June.
It has to be said that people have an innate curiosity about mysterious things.
In less than a month, the deeds of Ge Tianshi were spread all over the city of Chang'an. Suddenly, the three words "Ge Tianshi" could be heard everywhere in Chaliao, restaurants, Pingkangfang, and shops in Dongxi Market.
Even women and children are talking about it.
So that on the day Ge Tianshi entered the capital, Chang'an City was as lively as the Shangyuan Festival, and everyone was looking forward to seeing the true face of Ge Tianshi.
Ge Tianshi's appearance is indeed extraordinary, wearing a gray-blue Taoist robe, wearing a pure Yang towel, immortal style, Xuan Xuanxiaju.
However, he was just halfway there when he was stopped by an imperial decree and took him into the palace.
San Siye has been investigating the identity of this person day and night. For this reason, Lu Yan made a special trip to Luzhou and asked about the age of Tianshi Ge. The people of Luzhou only said that this person, Tianshi Ge, would have lived forever. Either the gods were reincarnated and came to protect Dajin.
It is true that Emperor Cheng Yuan was a very suspicious monarch. Even if Ge Tianshi was passed down as a god, in his opinion, this Ge Tianshi did not have much real ability.
What's more, the saying that the gods are reincarnated is not welcome to the emperor.
The first problem that Emperor Chengyuan gave him was to ask him to measure the national fortune, which was still in the seventeenth year of Qingyuan.
Why should he be tested for a year
There is no other reason. This year's national fortunes cannot be fabricated indiscriminately. After all, one year is just around the corner, and if the things he predicted did not happen, Emperor Chengyuan would immediately order him to condemn him.
Ge Tianshi has long been held to the cloud by the people, and he can only answer this matter.
At this time, most of the people in Beijing were still waiting to see this Ge Tianshi's joke.
On the fifth day of June, the weather was very good.
Emperor Cheng Yuan, accompanied by officials of the fourth rank and above from the middle of the capital, light riding, set off early in the morning, came out of Chunming Gate, and rushed all the way to Qingyun Temple at the foot of Mushan Mountain that night.
This Qingyun Temple was built by the late emperor.
Emperor Chengyuan took a hundred officials to observe Ge Tianshi to test the country's fortunes. To put it bluntly, it was just to ask Ge Tianshi's life.
Emperor Cheng Yuan sent people to quickly set up the formation. Before he could say a word to start, he saw Mr. Zheng from Jingzhao Mansion clutching his chest and fell down in a daze. His face was blue and purple, and he had difficulty breathing. In the next instant, he would be dead.
Everyone immediately greeted the imperial physician. At this moment, Ge Tianshi walked over calmly, pressed Zheng Jingzhao's chest hundreds of times, and blew a few breaths into his mouth.
Where can Baiguan see such a scene, they raised their sleeves to cover half of their faces, showing contempt and sympathy.
Emperor Cheng Yuan frowned and looked at the center of the hall, pinched his fingertips, and after a while, Zheng Jingzhao opened his eyes.
No one could have imagined that such a move by Ge Tianshi would later be passed on as a breath of immortal energy, and he would be able to continue his life.
Emperor Cheng Yuan called Lu Yan over and whispered, "Sanlang, does Zheng Jingzhao have any signs of being poisoned?"
Lu Yan shook his head, "Go back to Your Majesty, no."
"Okay, you go back first."
After a commotion, Ge Tianshi made a hexagram. I don't know if it was a coincidence. When he was sitting cross-legged, the sky turned darker and darker, and he looked like it was going to rain heavily.
Ge Tianshi closed his eyes and kept mumbling in his mouth. After half an hour, he suddenly opened his eyes, knelt on the ground, and bowed to the sky.
Then he looked solemn.
The emperor raised his eyebrows and said slowly, "I don't know what Tianshi sees?"
"The poor dare not speak."
Emperor Cheng Yuan glanced at him, "It doesn't matter what you say."
Ge Tianshi shook his head and said, "In the seventeenth year of Qingyuan, there will be four great calamities in Jin."
The hundreds of officials whispered, some shook their heads and sneered, while others said in pieces, "Pretend to be a ghost."
Immediately, Ge Tianshi got up, trembled all over, raised his hands high, and said word by word: "In June of the seventeenth year of Qingyuan, a plague will break out in Chang'an City."
"In July, there will be a flood along the Yellow River. This flood is no different than in the past. Once it happens, it will last for several years."
"However, in September, there will be another earthquake in Shu."
"As for the last catastrophe, Pindao dare not speak..."
As soon as the voice fell, the whole hall was in an uproar.
Right Xiang stood up against the table, "You are only mortal with the naked eye, how can you see the changes in the heavens! Who sent you to speak nonsense in front of the saint, but it's meticulous work from another country!"
Ge Tianshi smiled and said, "The right minister is a little calm, and let Pindao explain one or two. Today is the third day of the sixth lunar month, and it will only be a month's work from the plague that Pindao watched... If it didn't happen. , What will happen to the poor road, how can the poor road not know
Immediately, Ge Tianshi gave a great gift to Emperor Chengyuan, "Pindao entered the capital this time, it can be said that he was dedicated to the great Jin, and today, he is also risking his death to remonstrate."
Emperor Cheng Yuan narrowed his eyes. He couldn't wait for six months, one month of effort.
Did he save Ge Tianshi's life
After that day, Emperor Chengyuan sent Jin Wuwei to guard the major drugstores and medical centers in Dongxi City, and all people who encountered fever and rash were suppressed. As soon as this move was made, all officials were counting the days until June passed.
In Chang'an in June, the most frequently asked question is how many days are left in June
On the 29th of June, even Emperor Cheng Yuan began to laugh at himself. He lost his mind, believed the nonsense of the master that day, and secretly ordered the Ministry of Punishment to arrest Ge Tianshi tomorrow and put him directly in the prison of the Ministry of Punishment. death penalty.
But on June 30, dozens of patients with fever and rash appeared in several hospitals in East Chang'an overnight. After another day, the situation could not stop.
At the end of June, people in Chang'an panicked, and almost everyone believed what Ge Tianshi said.
Ge Tianshi said that when the natural disaster came, the natural disaster really came.
The plague is coming, will the flood be far behind
Once the plague broke out, it would last for several months, and no one could live in various departments such as the Imperial Physician Office, the Ministry of Industry, the Ministry of Personnel, and the Jingzhao Prefecture. This incident was not over, and Dajin ushered in an unprecedented flood immediately afterward. Emperor Cheng Yuan had no choice but to order that Ge Tianshi be released from the prison of the Ministry of Punishment.
In the end, at the suggestion of Ge Tianshi, Emperor Chengyuan handed over the responsibility of controlling the water to Li Di.
After things subsided, no one dared to say that Ge Tianshi was wrong.
Emperor Cheng Yuan couldn't help but see Ge Tianshi, he bent down, looked at Ge Tianshi, and muttered: I have something to ask Tianshi.
"It is the duty of the poor to share your worries for Your Majesty."
"What is the fourth catastrophe?"
Ge Tianshi smiled and replied, "It's His Majesty's arrogance."
"Is there a solution?"
"Naturally there is a solution."
In this world, everyone has demons.
Emperor Cheng Yuan's inner demon was a more greedy son in the palace, and his white hair increased day by day.
Emperor Cheng Yuan had been a prince, and he had been the crown prince of the East Palace. When he truly sat on the dragon chair, he knew better than anyone that this supreme right, once possessed, could no longer be abandoned. .
Lu Yan looked at the unfathomable emperor in his usual days, losing weight every day, but after just one month of work, he became withered and coughed up blood every day. He first left the court, dressed in red to hide from the stars in the house, and then sent someone to withdraw all the money from the state treasury, started construction, and built an altar on the side of Beishan.
Who doesn't love the supreme power
Everyone loves.
But in the eyes of Emperor Cheng Yuan, he fought back and forth, whether he concentrated on imperial power or fought in the Quartet, in the end, he still had to take the road of surrendering.
And among his sons, who would sincerely burn a stick of incense during Qingming
No.
History books may be incomplete about what people want in their life, but they must be clear in their hearts and minds.
By the time Baiguan reacted, Emperor Cheng Yuan was already a little insane. Cultivating Taoism, refining his body, and prolonging his life had already surpassed his pursuit of power in the first half of his life.
However, this statement is not accurate enough. It should be said that in the eyes of Emperor Cheng Yuan, if he can cultivate the technique of immortality, then those he once longed for will be like his lifespan and will last forever.
After the Earthquake in Shu in September, Emperor Cheng Yuan completely abandoned the dynasty and handed over the throne to the sixth prince, and entered the Evergreen View of the North Palace alone.
Closed at the end of September, no one was seen.
During the period, Queen Xu Suyi knelt before the Taoist temple, crying every day and begging the emperor to come out.
Lu Yan has been there with the eldest princess several times, and he is also closed to the door.
Empress Xu blushed and took the eldest princess' hand and said: "Jing An, Your Majesty has always loved you, you go in and persuade, this palace thinks this is not right, Your Majesty is not a monk, this is obviously a waste of life, that stinky Taoist priest, Don't tell His Majesty to sleep at all! He actually made His Majesty boil it in front of an eagle, saying that only if the eagle is boiled to death can he live forever."
"Jing An, do you believe in this technique of immortality! Do you believe it!" Empress Xu burst into tears, "Jing An, I have always been close to you, I am Ye'er's biological mother, yes, I hope he can sit in the East Palace. The position is not wrong, but the relationship between me and His Majesty as husband and wife for decades is also true! I don’t believe that Taoist priest really has the ability to make people immortal!”
Princess Jing'an said, "Is your mother thinking the same way?"
Empress Xu took Jing An's hand and nodded.
