eldest princess mansion
There is a birdcage hanging in the yard, and a parrot in the birdcage keeps beating. The eldest princess holds the bird food in her hand and teases the parrot: "Is it delicious?"
"It's delicious, it's delicious, it's so delicious." The parrot said happily. The eldest princess smiled. Although she was smiling, there was a look of worry on her face. She turned to call a nanny: "How is the little princess eating? Sample?"
Seeing the eldest princess's face was gloomy, Mammy carefully whispered: "The little princess has not been eating well recently. She only has one or two meals per meal, and most of them are vegetarian. She doesn't like to eat meat and fish, and she is getting thinner."
The eldest princess asked: "Where was it before?"
"It was better before. I also invited the imperial doctor to come over. The imperial doctor said that there is no serious illness, but a sluggish mood." Before the mama could finish speaking, she saw a female official coming up in a hurry. The eldest princess waved her hand to stop and said, "I understand."
At this time, the female official saluted: "Your Royal Highness, Princess Pei, someone in the court is impeaching Zhenren Pei and recommending Uncle Zhongqin."
Hearing this, the eldest princess was absent-minded and said, "Who got into trouble?"
The female officer stepped forward and handed over a copy of the transcript: "It's Li Zhi, Zhu Cheng, Chen Zhihuang, Taoist priests cannot be named, let alone be handsome."
"He also recommended Uncle Zhongqin as his commander-in-chief."
"Hey!" The eldest princess became a little interested. She took the folder and looked at it. After reading the appendix, she asked again: "Why is there such public opinion in Shilin? Have you found out?"
"It was found out that the imperial court was discussing the awarding of meritorious ministers in Yingzhou. This was an open matter. When the officials and scholars below heard about it, they all felt that Taoist officials were violating the ancestral laws of the imperial court when they were engaged in politics. There were many bad historical examples. , so it formed spontaneously.”
Hearing this, the eldest princess frowned slightly: "Really?"
The sudden public opinion, according to the appendix, is that scholars and officials hate Taoists, and the Ministry of Rites cannot keep its merits secret. This is normal, but she always felt something was wrong: "It seems to give me a familiar feeling."
"It's delicious, it's delicious." The parrot smashed it and shouted.
The eldest princess turned around and asked, "Where has the imperial ship arrived?"
"We are still halfway there. It will take more than ten days to reach Beijing."
The eldest princess listened and thought, and said, "Notify me immediately when you arrive."
"yes!"
In the blink of an eye, for more than ten days, the sun was shining brightly, and the deck was burning hot. Green mountains and green waters passed by on both sides of the river. However, the mountains gradually became shorter, and large fields appeared along the coast. Prince Chengshun, Uncle Zhongqin and several generals looked relaxed and chatted on the boat. .
"Hey, Master Pei hasn't come out yet today?" Prince Chengshun asked. Chen Yong poured tea and served it, smiling: "Your Majesty, Master Pei must be attending morning classes."
The light in the cabin was very dark, there were candles, but they were not lit. Pei Ziyun sat on the couch, with only a ray of sunlight shining through the blinds, carrying the smell of sea water.
"system!"
A plum appeared in front of me, and it quickly enlarged into a translucent data frame, floating in the field of vision with a faint sense of light, and the data appeared in front of my eyes.
"Yin Shen: The Eighth Level (102.1%)"
"Yin Shen - Condensation, Soul Communication, Night Travel, Elimination of Family, and Immortality. The reputation brought by novels in the fifth level becomes less and less."
"At the eighth or ninth level, I feel like even the reputation of pacifying chaos is a bit lacking."
"Before promotion to the eighth level, there was still an excess of 88%. However, after the chaos spread throughout the world, it took almost a month to reach the point where the promotion to the ninth level was complete."
The transparent phantom plum blossom remained motionless between Pei Ziyun's eyebrows, and he stretched out his hand to upgrade.
"Boom!" The plum blossoms instantly enlarged, covering the whole body, and dropped the spiritual energy. A kind of perfection emerged in the body and mind. As the spiritual energy continued to fall, the feeling became stronger and stronger, undergoing transformation. A trace of silken light gradually seeped out, and even gradually condensed. .
"Eh!" Pei Ziyun was startled. He saw a halo of light covering his body. The aperture was not very clear. It seemed to be there but not there, but it was indeed there.
"We've arrived at Changping Ferry, only twenty miles away from the capital." Someone shouted. Pei Ziyun was startled, opened his eyes, stood up and felt: "It's done."
"It is indeed the ninth level of Yin Shen. Yin Shen is close to perfection. I feel that many Taoist methods have been further strengthened."
"Yinshen: Ninth Level (2.1%)"
"Sword Technique: Grandmaster (Completion Level 37.3%)"
"Principles of Taoism: Mastery (67.8%)"
"Taoist skills: seventy-nine types, proficient (43.3%)"
"The Stars Are Moving: The Third Level (55.2%)"
"Cloud body wind body: third level (1.2%)"
Pei Ziyun looked at it carefully and saw that they had made some progress, but the improvement was very slow. He couldn't help but sigh to himself: "Only the principles of Taoism and Taoism have improved a lot at once."
"Especially Taoism, from forty-three types to seventy-nine all at once."
"This is the result of acquiring some memories from the demon clan."
"Monster clan, why didn't I hear about it in my previous life?" Pei Ziyun thought to himself, his mind cast a shadow. At this moment, the ship shook and docked.
In an instant, an eunuch came forward. This man was about fifty years old and serious in speech. He saw the imperial envoy, Chengshun County Prince, Zhongqin Bo, Pei Ziyun and others disembarking from the boat and greeted him: "Your Majesty, your uncle, the real person, generals, The emperor has summoned you immediately, so you should quickly prepare to have an audience."
There was some sweat on the eunuch's forehead and his face was slightly red from the sun. He looked like he had been waiting for a long time.
Uncle Zhongqin smiled at this time, and Prince Chengshun said to his father-in-law: "Lead the way."
"The carriages are all ready, Your Majesty, please." The father-in-law said, leading everyone forward. Not far away, several carriages were ready. Pei Ziyun kept up and thought to himself: "So fast?"
The Prince of Chengshun County was in one, Pei Ziyun and Zhongqin Bo were in one, and the three generals were in one. Pei Ziyun went up and opened the curtains to take a look.
In the distance, Ren Wei stood on the side of the road and made a gesture to indicate that everything was going well. Public opinion had spread. Seeing that the arrangements were in place, Pei Ziyun couldn't help but smile. At this time, Uncle Zhongqin asked, "What are you laughing at?"
Pei Ziyun closed the curtains and said, "I just smiled sincerely when I saw the people in the capital lined the streets to welcome you and live and work in peace and contentment."
Pei Ziyun spoke softly and calmly. Uncle Zhongqin listened and nodded: "Master, you are really compassionate."
After finishing speaking, there was a moment of silence, and neither of them spoke. They arrived in the imperial city in silence.
The eunuch went out and led the people into the imperial city. Along the way, there were main halls and corridors. Every five steps there was a guard with a knife, standing at his post like nails.
Pei Ziyun just entered, and his heart trembled: "Songyunmen's blessed land induction is completely isolated, but the dragon vein aura of the Immortal Path is still there."
When you enter the gate of Ouchi, you can't even sense the aura of the dragon veins of the Immortal Path. This is so strict.
In fact, when we arrived at the palace, there were many fewer anti-guards. We were led by the eunuchs, and we walked all the way. The flowers and trees blocked the sky, and it was so quiet that there was no sound. When we turned to a place, we saw a dormitory.
The smoke from the decoction in the west chamber curled up, and there was a strong fragrance of the medicine. Pei Ziyun couldn't help but frown, and saw several imperial doctors discussing in low voices, writing prescriptions on the pulse table.
There were more than a dozen eunuchs standing in the corridor, all standing together without saying a word to each other. When they entered, they saw a tea table and small chairs in front of the throne screen, and the prince was handling official business outside.
The two of them looked at each other and said nothing. The whole hall could only hear breathing and footsteps, the rustling of clothes, words and coughing up phlegm.
Pei Ziyun sighed secretly: "The emperor also has this day."
After thinking about it in his mind, he continued to go in. Someone in front of the screen whispered: "Don't make any noise."
As soon as he entered, he saw a couch, several people were saluting, and the emperor said: "Everyone, please get down."
Prince Chengshun was at the front. Hearing his father's courtesy, he stepped forward to report the war. The emperor gently leaned on the couch. Seeing Prince Chengshun about to speak, he shook his hand. Prince Chengshun stopped immediately. Stopped.
"Ahem!" The emperor coughed again. Knowing that his energy was limited, he looked directly at Pei Ziyun: "Pei Qing, when the prince recommended you, I was still doubtful. It turned out that you lived up to my expectations and took great credit, which is gratifying."
Pei Ziyun listened to the emperor's praise and bowed: "The Marquis of Jibei does not know the power of heaven and does not know the number of heaven. He should be defeated and die. This is the emperor's blessing. I am just borrowing the power of heaven."
The prince was standing aside. Hearing these words, his face relaxed and he thought to himself: "This is a good thing. Now my father can only listen to these words."
The emperor smiled half-heartedly and asked, "Pei Qing, what do you think of King Lu's rebellion using the Qing emperor's slogan?"
After hearing this, Pei Ziyun's heart sank. The emperor was so straightforward. He must have lost his energy. However, he had a plan in advance. After a moment of thought, Pei Ziyun said: "Your Majesty, King Lu is just being deceived by others. This person is Qi Xuan." Many people in the Qi Xuan Sect are very ambitious, and there are secret spies and dead men all along the state, and low-ranking ministers have also been persecuted many times by them. They are really the biggest cancer of the Taoist Sect and the imperial court."
"Your Majesty, before I come here, I will write a note to record the dead spies placed by Qi Xuan Sect in various states." After saying that, he presented the note to the prince and saw the prince stepping forward to take it and hand it over, saying: "The Imperial Court's Encirclement and Suppression" Unfortunately, there are actually these people who are secretly responding, and I am willing to clear them up for the imperial court."
The emperor took the book and scanned it briefly. Pei Ziyun stood with his hands hanging down. This was a combination of past life information and some fabricated things, but the emperor couldn't tell.
Uncle Zhongqin suddenly felt alarmed and couldn't help but secretly clench his fists. If Pei Ziyun did nothing, he would be resentful, fighting against the imperial court, hoping to clean up for the imperial court. His attitude would be very righteous. Damn it, why can't he catch the flaw? Such a thief , why don’t you die
Prince Chengshun secretly watched at this time. Seeing the emperor's gloomy face, he glanced at it for a few times, put the fold aside and said, "I understand."
The emperor waved his hand: "I am tired today. We will discuss the matter another day. You all can go down."
"Long live!" Everyone had to kneel down and lead the eunuch out of the palace.
"Hey, is it raining?" After leaving the palace, Pei Ziyun felt his whole body relax. He politely declined the offer from Prince Chengshun and stayed outside the palace while Ren Wei drove the cattle cart forward.
The driver shouted, and the car started to move. Pedestrians took shelter in the shower, only to hear the hooves of cattle treading in the mud, and the rain hit the oilcloth alternately. Halfway down the street, Ren Wei asked, "Master, how are you doing?"
Seeing no one on the road, Pei Ziyun smiled and said, "This is a sixty-seven percent chance."
"Actually, even if I am willing, the emperor may not be willing to let me lead the army. It only takes tens of thousands of people to quell the rebellion in Yingzhou. It's probably not tens of thousands to pacify King Lu, but hundreds of thousands. I can't be allowed to be the commander."
"Probably the lieutenant general."
"But why do I serve as deputy general?" Pei Ziyun glanced at the raindrops on the street and said with a calm expression, "If he wants to kill me when Uncle Zhongqin controls him, he will have an excuse at any time."
"Now, it is almost a foregone conclusion that Zhong Qinbo will be the head coach."
And this is the day of death, Pei Ziyun thought secretly in his heart, with a sneer.
