Chapter 202
Yi Chen hurriedly changed into a simple outfit that was traveling far away and rushed to the palace to close the case.
I imagine that Situ Cheng has been under a lot of pressure during this period...
As long as this case is achieved, everyone can take a break.
In recent days, the Prime Minister has also been taking leave while sick, and he has no energy to come to court, so he naturally has no time to stay in the free time to come to the palace to preach and teach His Majesty.
The two major pillars in the court all went far away. Fortunately, everyone was used to this feeling of panic and gradually became unmoved. However, after the two extra diligent pillars were gone, everyone was a little loose.
Yi Chen chased the father-in-law who asked to report to His Majesty almost disappeared and ran back again. Seeing that his eyesight was unprecedented, the palace ladies had already smelled some "popular" meaning from Yi Chen's pursuit, and they also came out with a smile on their faces.
The last time I met His Majesty like this, Situ Cheng and his adoptive father opened the way for him to pass the way. This time, he really asked him to go to the palace alone, and he couldn't help but panic again.
Yi Chen followed the eunuch and took a deep breath, and finally calmed down a little as the moment he was about to step into the palace gate. As a result, when he looked up, he saw that it was not the palace gate.
The eunuch actually led him to His Majesty's back garden all the way. He suddenly asked Yi Chen to chase him for a moment, as if he had been in vain for a moment of calmness just now.
His Majesty went straight to the back garden these days, and did not pay much attention to the beauties in the harem. He listened to a group of wild arts priests who came back from somewhere to talk about various legends of gods and ghosts and the so-called "Immortal Sect Techniques". He also took the pills better. I wonder if he had been foolish when he was slaughtered.
So Yi Chen chased into the backyard where His Majesty was, and saw such a "miraculous sight" - five alchemists and His Majesty sat opposite each other under the flowers and trees in the low forest, with a small breeze swaying and clear smoke swaying. The people under him were dressed and had a very happy conversation with each other, and it seemed that they were really a "paradise".
Yi Chenzhui stood there and felt that the scene was really amazing and there was a vague feeling of irritating discomfort.
However, when the emperor was above, Yi Chen chased him respectfully and bowed honestly. When the emperor heard the movement of Yi Chen hunting, he quickly turned around and looked at him, but he was ecstatic. He didn't even have time to spare him, so he rushed to greet him.
"Chen Zhui, come here!"
Yi Chenzhe had no choice but to accept the gift and answered the call and walked over.
The emperor was so happy that he couldn't wait for Yi Chen to chase him and stood there, so he hurriedly pulled his arm and pulled him to sit beside him.
The five old alchemists were putting a bunch of chickens and pieces in front of His Majesty, such as copper coins, red threads, ghost girls' hair, and maybe even the legendary puppet dolls, so they spread them in front of His Majesty and explained them one by one.
"This is a ghost-exorcist copper coin made of Tianshan meteorite. It is connected to the sky and the earth, and has boundless magic power. But when all kinds of demons and evil spirits break through their sharp armor and penetrate their bodies, they can do everything from heaven to earth."
Yi Chen Zhui: "..."
So what are your abilities to smel iron into copper?
Yi Chenzhu ignored the guy who might be a "Taoist" and continued to whine, and just silently looked at the copper coins that "going to heaven and earth can do everything" for a moment, and faintly read the first word: "'First Year of Guangchu'..."
Could this be dug out from an ancient tomb of the previous dynasty?
The texts of the previous dynasty are different from those of the present, and the usual fonts for coins are also different from those of the present. In addition, they are covered in dust all year round, and in addition to the rust, they also blur the edges of the characters' feet. This looks very confusing. It was originally used to fool a layman.
The old "Taoist" who was talking about it just now suddenly became hoarse. I don't know how many of them were quizzed in their throats, and they were stunned into a wooden chicken.
"From this rust, did you invite this meteorite copper coin from the south?
“…”
"With Dust Chasing Knowing This Is It?"
Yi Chen Zhui: "..."
It would be fine if this old Taoist priest was fooling around, but what really surprised Yi Chenzhui was that His Majesty was actually fooled into it.
"...I think everyone had this thing a thousand years ago."
His Majesty nodded with great enlightenment, "So that's it," and then asked the old Taoist priest again in a blink of an eye: "Why did that sir just say that this thing must be possessed by heavenly beings?"
Yi Chenzhu was almost shocked by this sentence.
"This thing..." The old Taoist priest turned his eyes and immediately came up with a set of rhetoric: "This thing is common in ordinary shapes, but there is nothing in the world that really has its own inner meaning."
...I am really a veteran liar.
This old Taoist priest was blocked by Yi Chen and silently said, but another old alchemist seemed to have a bit of a game. With a finger, he pointed to the puppet puppet in front of him, whose nose was not the nose, eyes were not the eyes, and said, "I am the puppet puppet obtained from a ghost. It is made of ghost bones and human souls as the guide. It is the supreme evil thing." As he said, his eyes disdained and glanced at the guy who was proud of his copper coins and said, "Unlike Lao Chen's 'god of heaven and man', I am a real spiritual treasure."
Yi Chenzhu also looked down upon his invitation.
Although Yi Chenzhu is not a puppet technique, after spending time with Gui Yi for a long time, he can still tell the difference between some of the things here.
Even he could see the flaws. If Gui Yijian was really called, he would probably be able to piss the cold and beautiful young man to death.
"If a ghost wants to control the soul, you don't need to rely on other things as a means to directly invade the soul. If this object is obtained from the ghost, then this object is mostly a dish for raising ghosts. Yin evil is a semi-yin thing. If you expose it to the sun in this way, you may have purified the spiritual aggregate and become an ordinary thing."
It was clearly seen that the old alchemist had a blue and white face, and the two men gradually became dark. After a moment of silence, he asked in anger: "Do you dare to ask if you have ever contacted ghosts in the past?"
“I didn’t before…”
Yi Chen was only halfway through the conversation, and the old alchemist who had been stripped of face asked fiercely: "Since the young master has never been involved in ghosts and spirits, how can he make a guess here?"
This time, His Majesty spoke: "This is the adopted son of the current Marshal. He is ordered to investigate the case of Qixuezhuang. How many of them do you know?"
The emperor's words frightened the five people. The poor spirit that had just been squeezed out immediately disappeared, and he bowed his hands and apologized, "I'm rude."
Perhaps because His Majesty also tasted some "deception", he showed a little unhappy look and sent back the five scammers.
After the five people walked away, Yi Chen chased and asked, "Why did Your Majesty invite these alchemists from the rivers and lakes into the palace?"
"Since the incorporation of the demon clan into the Central Plains, these strange things have increased day by day, and I cannot always be a person outsider to watch the flowers in the fog."
Your Majesty’s reason for being diligent and studious really made Yi Chenzhu silently refute for a while.
"If Your Majesty wants to learn these things, you don't have to look for these idle people in the world who dare to talk big but dare to talk big."
Yi Chen Zhui really wanted to remind Your Majesty that the people who are good at spiritual art in the capital have countless talents trained by the Marshal himself and a vote of masters in the Jinshi Academy. They really have no need to leave the near and far.
His Majesty fell and thought for a moment, and finally got around the topic and said, "What's the point of seeing me when you came to the palace today?"
“…”
Yi Chenzhu clearly remembered that he had already handed over a document to his Majesty and briefly explained the murderer's arrest...
There was no way, Yi Chenzhu respectfully re-recorded the situation of the murderer's arrest, and then His Majesty suddenly realized that there was such a thing in the court!
Your Majesty is so damn good enough...
Yi Chen Zhui Xinting looked helplessly and looked up at the Emperor Majesty with no experience of the world's dangers. He was really both lamentable and angry.
This emperor was like a child who was sealed in a honeypot who was indifferent to worldly affairs but thought he was far-sighted, so simple that he was almost heartless. He only remembered that the King of Northern Yan, who had all his trust, betrayed him, and only cared about the King of Northern Yan's contempt for him, but forgot that the murderer slaughtered the entire villa and almost set the capital at the subversion pass.
Yi Chenzhu is already a person who doesn't care about it, but now he is still angry with the willful choice of the little emperor who is really ignorant and the naivety of self-righteous "humble and studious", but he still patiently talks about the matter and settles the case.
"This criminal has been arrested and brought to justice in the poisonous malaria forest in the Nanling Mountains of Chu, and has admitted the massacre of Qixue Village." Yi Chenzhe briefly told the matter and handed the confession to His Majesty.
The emperor took the edict of confession and read it briefly, and it was said that Yi Chen had passed the pass. "So, then I will write your edict for office and I will take the position to become a title tomorrow."
——
Yi Chenzhe, who had originally hoped to be able to pick a single lever in the court, was now, but for some reason, it seemed like he was poured with cold water. Although the task was rewarded with affirmation and reward, he always felt strange and indescribable discomfort.
It is said that good birds choose trees to live in, and good ministers choose masters to work. Yi Chen chased them but did not understand why the civil and military pillars of the court, the capable and talented people and talents, served such an ignorant emperor.
Before Yi Chenzhang was involved in the affairs of the court, he did not understand very well why there have been so many rebellious things in ancient times, but at this moment he suddenly understood deeply that after seeing the incompetence of the Lord of the matter, no one can tell the true "loyalty".
He was about to be promoted, but Yi Chen chased him but felt depressed as if he was "failed to be successful in life".
He left the palace but was not in a hurry to rush home. However, he remembered that the Prime Minister was ill and had concerns in his heart, so he simply picked up the road and went to the Prime Minister's Mansion.
The sky was filled with dark clouds, and the wind was passing by, as if heavy rain was brewing.
Yi Chen chased and looked up at the sky. He knew that the rain was approaching, but he still couldn't lift the speed. He just wanted to walk so slowly and leisurely, and saw the people who were rushing away from the rain, as if they had slowed down time and space.
Mortals seem to be the most timid creature in the world, but cowardice is wrapped in a pair of iron hearts.
