The devil is coming

Chapter 922 The Emperor’s Dragon Body
It is not that there is no precedent for the emperor to stay in the homes of his ministers when he is on patrol. In fact, there is this tradition.
Except for the kind of "hunting" in the southeast and northwest, the conditions are a little cramped, simple, and perfunctory, which is excusable;
Under normal circumstances, it would be a great honor for the emperor to stay in someone's home when he was on tour;
Basically, the emperor had just entered the front door, and the original owners of this mansion were all demoted to slaves and served carefully.
Even in Prince Pingxi's Mansion, they dared to treat the Emperor's family as normal visiting relatives.
The emperor also adhered to the principle of being a guest. Except for a few eunuchs and maids who were accustomed to calling around, the rest of his entourage were all placed outside the palace.
It can be said that except for Eunuch Wei, there is no one around the emperor who can fight.
This is also a kind of freedom and ease. The Holy Emperor has already entered the palace, and the imperial army has looked to the west of the Yangtze River and has not followed. In this palace, what is the point of having any imperial guards in front of you?
It would be better to leave the safety of the holy driver to the palace.
Not to mention anything else, in terms of security, the emperor has always had great confidence in Prince Pingxi.
Therefore, the blind man really walked in directly. The two eunuchs standing at the door had received orders before and did not stop him.
The emperor was sitting in the pavilion, looking at the prince's words, and frowning slightly.
The calligraphy of Prince is very beautiful.
The writing is agile and fast, and the handwriting is thin and vigorous, even though it is thin without losing its flesh.
The queen read this word and couldn't help but praise the beautiful writing.
But the emperor was not satisfied, but it was not convenient to express his dissatisfaction directly.
The word "son" is somewhat similar to that of the person named Zheng.
It is an instinct for a child to imitate his father. It is easy to understand that the prince, who was fostered in the palace for a year, imitated his godfather's handwriting;
But Zheng Fan's calligraphy skills are the same as those of Osawa Xiangtu;
Zheng Fan only knew this few fonts in his previous life. He had practiced them with a fountain pen. Now that he needed to practice calligraphy with calligraphy in this life, he naturally picked up the familiar ones and took the time to practice them;
For a martial artist who was born in Qiu Ba, who was a distinguished military prince and prince, it was really good to be able to write the character like this.
But the emperor just felt that the calligraphy his son practiced seemed to be full of muscles and bones, but in fact it was full of tenderness and deliberateness. Ordinary literati could write this hand for their own entertainment, but the emperor's hand calligraphy lost its majesty and grandeur. , it’s easy to feel sorry for yourself and remain stubborn, the pattern is too small.
However, it is impossible for the emperor to say these words to the prince. There is no need. But if he did, the prince would probably say with emotion: After all, the emperor understands the emperor.
When the blind man came in, Wei Zhonghe greeted him with a smile.
People who are well-connected to the palace can only go here, but it is impossible to talk to the emperor directly.
Coincidentally, the emperor also turned his eyes at this time;
The characteristics of the blind man were still very obvious, so the emperor immediately said, "Sir, come here."
Wei Zhonghe got out of the way.
The blind man walked straight into the pavilion and greeted the emperor and empress. Originally, like Siniang, he had no official position, but Siniang was now the princess, and the blind man was still a "commoner", so the salute could be much simpler.
However, most ordinary people are not so arrogant.
The emperor interrupted his salute and motioned for him to sit down.
Immediately, he signaled the queen to take the prince to get out of the way.
Before leaving, the prince bowed to the blind man seriously and said goodbye.
Although nominally, King Pingxi was the crown prince's father-in-law and tutor, in fact, the crown prince's cultural teacher was blind.
The last time Yanjing seized the throne, the blind man did not go to the capital, but stayed behind.
Therefore, it is not like A Ming, Fan Li and others who met with the emperor as many times.
But at first glance, he is a blind man, and then he looks at the style of freely entering and exiting the inner courtyard of the palace, combined with the rumors of the "Zhifanli" of Pingxi Palace,
You can also guess his identity.
"If nothing else, sir and I must have been close friends for a long time, right?"
The emperor had long known that a large part of the correspondence between him and Zheng was not answered by Zheng at all. If a qualified person was selected, it would probably be this "Zhifanli" or "Zhifanli". Mr. "Blind Fan Li".
of course,
The emperor did not think that everything with the surname Zheng was in the hands of the gentleman in front of him.
Just like when we were drinking and chatting on the top of Mount Tai,
The emperor was also surprised: "You actually understand."
At this point, Juggernaut is fully aware of this.
The prince can always say some exquisite truths, making him fall into enlightenment;
But the prince himself is just a fifth-grade vulgar martial artist.
However, martial arts can be seen intuitively, but it is difficult to evaluate other aspects directly. Especially in terms of martial arts, Zheng Fan has always performed extremely well;
Therefore, in the eyes of the emperor, the blind man should be Zheng Fan's right-hand man, and Zheng Fan should still be the main one in everything.
It's just that the man named Zheng was used to being lazy. He never respected the imperial power and didn't regard himself as an outsider. When he was too lazy to reply to the letter, he asked the gentleman he had trained to answer the letter for him.
That’s the limitation;
Because no one will believe that there is anyone in this world who is born with knowledge;
Naturally, I will not believe that there are people in this world who can open their eyes and have "loyal" and "loyal" subordinates by their side.
"It made His Majesty laugh."
The blind man was still neither humble nor arrogant towards the emperor.
"I have benefited a lot from Sir's many insights and inspired me a lot."
"All of this is due to our prince's good teaching to the common people."
The emperor obviously had no interest in praising Zheng Fan without being in front of Zheng Fan, and oh, it would be even more impossible if Zheng Fan was present.
"Sir, why are you here?" The emperor got straight to the point.
"The common people come here to treat His Majesty."
When Eunuch Wei next to him heard this, his expression changed.
The emperor's physical condition has always been the biggest secret in the country.
In the late period of the late emperor's life, his physical condition was deteriorating. Not only the Yan Kingdom, but also other countries were actually speculating on when the late emperor's body would collapse;
Therefore, sometimes even the maids and eunuchs serving around him had to be silenced.
If this is not Prince Pingxi’s Mansion, if this gentleman in front of me is not from the Prince’s Mansion,
Eunuch Wei has probably taken action now.
The emperor frowned slightly, but he quickly recovered and said with a smile;
"What's wrong with me?"
"You'll have to check it out to find out."
"it is good."
The emperor agreed.
The blind man "looked" at Eunuch Wei and asked, "There is a chessboard in the house."
This courtyard was organized specifically for the holy driver to live in. All kinds of needs are available.
"Go and get it," said the emperor.
"Yes."
Eunuch Wei personally went to the house to fetch the chessboard and placed it in the pavilion.
immediately,
The blind man and the emperor began to play chess.
The emperor has something on his mind. It is difficult for anyone to calm down when his own physical condition is involved. Moreover, the emperor also understands what his dragon body means to the current situation in Dayan.
It is no exaggeration to say that it is enough to affect the pattern of Zhuxia.
Go is all about calculation ability. In this regard, the blind man is a well-deserved master.
Don't say that the emperor didn't put all his attention on the chessboard. Even if he was prepared, he would not be the blind man's opponent.
The blind man had a hearty killing spree, and the emperor suffered a miserable defeat.
After all, a blind man would not be able to measure the emperor's feelings like the masters of the country who were raised in the palace or the ministers who were proficient in chess.
After the first game of chess was played,
The blind man did not hesitate,
The second set began, and the Emperor followed up.
When playing the second game of chess,
The emperor thought of his father,
This was not in the side hall of the imperial study, but my father's voice seemed to be coming to my ears again. It was very vague and could not be heard clearly.
Similarly, in the second game of chess, the emperor also lost miserably.
The blind man did not hesitate,
The third set began.
The faster you play, the faster you lose, so each game doesn't take too long.
When the third set was played,
The emperor couldn't help but look at the mother and son who were talking in the corridor in the distance.
Every time the blind man makes a move, the speed is very fast;
The chess piece was at the emperor's fingertips, but it did not fall. The emperor apologized:
"Sir, please go down a little slower."
"According to the order."
The blind man slowed down his speed.
The emperor felt that the first two games were played too fast.
During the first game of chess, what he was thinking about was the turmoil of Zhu Xia and the unification of Dayan, but it was over before it could get any further;
The second game of chess ended without him even hearing his father's voice clearly.
The first set, the second set, if it ends soon, it will end soon.
But this third game of chess,
He wanted to see his wife and children over there for a while longer.
In my mind, I couldn’t help but have some thoughts;
If there is really a big problem with my body and I can't fix it, what will happen to my family?
When I think of my family,
The emperor immediately thought of the man named Zheng.
Back then, when I and the person named Zheng were getting along just fine, the two sides had joked that at least they had to protect each other's families.
When Yanjing's battle for heirs became intense, Zheng sent his men to take over all the family members in his mansion;
There is no doubt that the emperor believed that the man named Zheng at that time would do whatever it took to bring his family back to the east of Shanxi safely once he knew that he had failed to seize the rightful son.
The [-] Jingnan troops stationed in Yanjing City at that time were Zheng Fan's back-up cards.
In fact, you don’t need to think about it for long at all.
It's really the worst case scenario,
Entrusting the family to a man surnamed Zheng was the safest and most appropriate plan. It was the most appropriate path chosen by him as a "husband" and a "father" for his family.
King Jingnan had also chosen this road before.
The emperor was naturally immersed in this atmosphere, and with the crisp sound of falling pieces, it seemed that the chessboard in front of him had become some kind of temporary sustenance.
Although I deliberately slowed down,
But the third game of chess,
The emperor still lost miserably.
The blind man was satisfied and comfortable.
The emperor said: "Sir, what's wrong with my body?"
The blind man raised his head,
road;
"Your Majesty, let's start the inspection now."
"………"emperor.
Eunuch Wei next to him twitched his face, "Did you really just play chess just now?"
When they played chess before, both the emperor and Eunuch Wei thought it was another way of "checking". After all, there were many strange people in the world, and Xuansi pulse diagnosis was considered an entry-level test.
But I didn’t expect that,
The blind man simply played chess and enjoyed the pleasure of killing the emperor to pieces on the chessboard.
"Your Majesty, please sit down."
The blind man stood up and walked towards the emperor.
Eunuch Wei narrowed his eyes, but did not stop him.
This is the palace of Prince Pingxi. If Prince Pingxi wants to kill the king, it should not be too easy, and there is no need to pretend to be a ghost and take off his pants to fart.
"Is Your Majesty feeling unwell? The people are asking about the more obvious symptoms."
"I, I occasionally get some nosebleeds, but the rest is nothing."
The emperor was almost short-lived. Although we don't know exactly how many years he lived, he should be much shorter than his father.
The blind man once specifically asked Tiantian about the details of his dream;
In the prophecy, when Tiantian attacked Yanjing City, he was actually not too old.
At the same time, there is another question here;
In the prophecy, Tian Wujing died in battle at Zhennanguan. Note that he died in battle.
Let’s ignore the theory of whether fate is constant or not.
If you want to change the outcome of dying in battle, it is difficult to say it is difficult, but it is not difficult to say it is not difficult.
The thousands-mile attack on Xueguan directly overturned the entire situation in Eastern Jin Dynasty. In the subsequent Yan-Chu National War, the Lord, alone, deeply disrupted the deployment of the Chu State. His two-handed military strategy, which can be regarded as a stroke of genius, successfully reversed the situation of the entire national war. ;
Lao Tian has no reason to die in battle, so it is difficult to be killed;
And the emperor,
If it's not an assassination, then it's a problem with the body itself. After all, the emperor is surrounded by experts and the doctors are also extremely good. Even if he can die, it really feels like... he has to die.
The emperor sat there,
The blind man gently pressed his right thumb on the emperor's forehead.
"Sir, what is this method?" the emperor asked.
"Your Majesty, please calm down."
"I was the one who was abrupt."
The emperor closed his eyes,
The blind man also closed his eyes.
Wei Zhonghe stood on the edge. Immediately, he felt the spiritual aura flowing from the blind man. It was very strong and pure, like mercury pouring down the ground, penetrating all pervasive.
There is no time for a stick of incense, and no time for half a cup of tea.
In fact,
Maybe I counted less than ten numbers silently.
The blind man opened his eyes and at the same time took away the thumb that was pressing on the emperor's forehead.
In fact, the human body is extremely complex and cannot be solved at once, but this time, it was really fast.
As soon as it started, it was over.
Wei Zhonghe stared at the blind man's expression carefully, but unfortunately, the blind man was used to the ancient well without waves. Besides, you can't catch other people's eyes because they don't have them.
Wei Zhonghe was actually the most aware of the emperor's body and the hysteria that the emperor had suffered from. He had also been worried about it, but he did not dare to think about it in detail.
However, when this layer of gauze was lifted, the chief steward of the Imperial Court of Yan, who had served two emperors, could not help but be cautious.
"How is my health?"
The emperor took the initiative and asked.
The blind man took two steps back and bowed down.
Road:
"Your Majesty's dragon body is in good health, which is the blessing of Great Yan."
Well, this is talking nonsense with open eyes, and it is a very blind kind of thing.
The emperor nodded and said:
"That's good."
"The civilians have completed the inspection for Your Majesty, and the civilians have resigned."
The emperor took out an exquisite snuff bottle from his sleeve and handed it to the blind man:
"It's not a reward, it's a medical diagnosis. This is the rule."
The blind man smiled:
"Thank you, grassman."
The blind man is gone;
Eunuch Wei frowned and stopped talking.
There are some things that a slave naturally has to see and pretend not to see, and pretend not to know if he knows, but when it comes to issues of principle, Eunuch Wei still has a bottom line.
He is a slave of the Emperor's family. The word "家" means he is a member of the family.
"His Majesty……"
The emperor raised his hand and said:
"The man named Zheng will tell me."
Wei Zhonghe still said seriously: "Your Majesty, how can you... about your dragon body?"
"Wei Zhonghe." The emperor interrupted Wei Zhonghe.
"The slave is here."
"Believe it or not, in this world, except for my queen, concubine, children, and... the current prince.
Ok,
Counting you and Zhang Banban.
To outsiders,
The last thing I want to do is to have something happen to my body.
I'm afraid it's the one with the surname Zheng. "
……
Outside Fengxin City,
Gourd Temple.
The paper man is still huddled in a dry corner, thinking about life.
The old monk has gone to rest;
The young monk had just gone to refill the sesame oil. After finishing his work, he sat on the small bench, holding snacks in his hands, pinching his orchid fingers, and eating bit by bit;
People who are used to dancing in the wind of Jin are afraid that they will be unable to control themselves when they see this scene.
When the paper man saw this,
Silently muttering:
"The Son of Heaven, celestial phenomena, luck..."
At first, the young monk just thought that the Taoist priest was crazy, so he glanced at him and didn't take it seriously.
After eating the snacks, the little monk felt a little sleepy. Then he lay down on the stool and fell asleep.
The paper man was still mumbling those words;
In fact, the Taoist had already seen the true identity behind the young monk. After all, they had fought against each other above Fengxin City.
What he was talking about was just an introduction, to lure the snake out of its hole.
The little monk who was lying there dozing off raised his head at this time and looked at the paper man. For a moment, the Dharma was solemn. This look alone was enough to make believers surrender.
The paper man saw this and said;
"No matter how the dragon transforms into a dragon, as long as he still wears that layer of skin, he is still not a dragon;
right now,
The True Dragon Emperor is right here,
Aren't you tempted? "
The little monk shook his head.
The paper man was a little depressed.
Busy:
"Are you determined to hang yourself from a tree?"
The little monk said:
"Then do you know why most people in the world fall to death from trees?"
"Why?"
"Because they were climbing one tree and looking around at other trees. They deserved to fall to death."
After saying this,
The little monk lay back down again and gradually snored.
……
"Checked?"
Zheng Fan sat in the room and looked at the blind man who came back to look for him. A Ming stood beside him.
Originally, Zheng Fan planned to personally persuade the blind man to check up on Ji Laoliu, but the blind man went there on his own initiative.
At the same time, the reason given by the blind man may seem ridiculous to outsiders, but in Zheng Fan's opinion,
But it is exceptionally detailed, organized and convincing!
"If you return to the master, your subordinates have checked it."
"So fast?"
"Because as soon as it begins, it's over."
"Tell me."
The blind man stretched out his hand,
Pointing to his head,
road;
"My lord, there is a heart in the emperor's head..."
Tumor. "
