king of black mist.

Chapter 278 Taking Jiajing to the Moon
Today is the 29th day of the twelfth lunar month, with auspicious snowfall, Emperor Jiajing received congratulations in the Palace of Preserving Harmony and gave a banquet to all his ministers.

Li Changzhou, the successor of the Duke of the East, was granted the title of Immortal Lei Yuanyang, the head of Shenxiao Protector.

He was granted the title of Zuo Shilang of the Ministry of Rites, a second-rank salary, a jade seal, a gold seal, and a silver elephant seal, and a purple clothes and jade belt. He was in charge of Chaotian Palace, one of the three major palaces in the palace.

In addition, the Imperial Palace was built in the west of the city, and [-] handymen were sent to be used by the real people, and [-] hectares of fertile land were donated for the use of the Shenxiao real man's mansion, and the rent was exempted.

Getting promoted faster than women in this era - as long as they look good.

It’s no wonder that in history, scholars criticize Fang Shishi. On the one hand, he has studied hard for decades without even a county magistrate, and on the other hand, he has climbed straight to the top with a single mouth.

In the past, Taoist priests married royal women and became relatives of the emperor.

"In fact, Taoist priests in the Ming Dynasty, especially in the early Ming Dynasty, had to go through years of hard study, master the classics, and refer to exams. Only those who passed the test could be awarded degree certificates and become official Taoist priests. Now—"

Yao Chi's voice was cadenced and ups and downs: "The one who prays for rain and snow will get a beautiful official, and the one who enters gold and treasure will get huge profits."

Just listening to the sound can stimulate people's desire.

"You know the Ming Dynasty very well?" Li Changzhou asked.

"It's okay." Yao Chi smiled.

As Li Changzhou's "wife", she was named the Palm Immortal Miaohua Yuanjun.

"Tomorrow Jiajing will definitely come to you and ask you how to live forever, have you figured out a way?" Yaochi said again.

"All right."

"how?"

"Give him elixir, which can increase physical strength, strength, agility, and increase lifespan and make him look immortal."

"Increase lifespan? Bring it." Yaochi spread his hands.

They lived in the Chaotian Palace in the palace, and the lights were always on all night. Under the lights, her slender hands made people want to hold them, observe them carefully, and feel them.

It doesn't matter if the blood bead is given to her, but giving it in such a flirtatious atmosphere is disrespectful to Miss Yang.

"People with 'ability' over 100 are useless," he said.

"I can give it to someone else."

"No."

"Don't forget that I'm the one who speaks for you today."

Li Changzhou gave her two drops of blood.

Yao Chi pinched his fingertips to look at him, and then glanced at him again: "You are all treasures now, have you considered where to do the funeral after death?"

She put away the blood beads and continued: "I have acquired many funeral companies."

"Funeral company?"

"The player is also valuable after death. After an accidental death, for example, if there is a problem with the concept of cultivation, family members who don't know will send it over."

"Efficiency is too low, and safety is waiting on the sidelines." Li Changzhou is not optimistic.

"Without the player's corpse, the death rate of ordinary people has also skyrocketed recently, and there is no need to worry about not making money."

"The capital is terrible." Li Changzhou accepted it, and took out the storage bag from his waist.

The storage bag belonged to the Heavenly Emperor of the God Sect. After Li Changzhou replaced him, all the things were transferred to him.

This is the benefit of a high status, but the higher the status, the greater the risk of the task.

I don't know if it's because in order not to reveal his identity, there are only some relics of the Eastern Prince's heirs in the storage bag, and there is no artifact representing the lofty status of the God Emperor.

Two jade books, three bottles of pills, some gold and silver and other sundries.

Li Changzhou took out the jade volumes, one volume was the cultivation method "Yuanyang Baogao", and the other volume was "A Collection of Taoism".

After reading "Yuanyang Baogao" for a few moments, I put it aside, only a fool should practice it if it is a boy.

There are 31 spells in "Taoism Collection", most of them are juggling, and the rest are considered real spells, but they are not powerful, so there is no time to waste them now.

"Isn't this Eastern Prince's successor also a fake?" Li Changzhou threw away the jade book and took out the elixir.

The first bottle of aphrodisiac, the second bottle of aphrodisiac, the third bottle of aphrodisiac, very good, as expected, they came to the palace to deceive their glory and wealth, damn it, damn it, the Ming Dynasty was defeated by these Taoist priests!
"Where are you?" Li Changzhou looked at Yaochi who was also looking through the storage bag.

Yaochi shook her head lightly, and casually threw the storage bag on the table. She even disliked the fact that the funeral company opened and the players' corpses were not spared. It can be seen that the descendants of the Eastern Prince and the Western Queen Mother are all fake.

"But I got some useful information for you." Yao Chi said.

"what?"

"Answer me first, why haven't you seen me for half a month?"

Li Changzhou paused for a moment, thinking that it would be better to speak clearly, so he said, "Thank you for your kindness, but Qinglan is enough for me."

"What does this have to do with not seeing me?" Yao Chi seemed really puzzled.

"this."

"this?"

"avoid arousing suspicion?"

"you ask me?"

"Avoid suspicion." Li Changzhou nodded.

"You can't see women now? Are you the same as the concubines in the harem?" Yaochi's slender fingers pointed in the direction of the harem.

"Can't see you."

"Oh~" Yao Chi smiled and nodded.

She suddenly moved closer, almost touching Li Changzhou's face, and asked in a soft voice that couldn't even blow out a candle: "Am I special? Will your heart be moved when you see me? It will make you, who is enough to have Qinglan, be moved." ?”

It's a bit like a couple chatting privately at night.

"I think we should talk about something greater." Li Changzhou backed away, then stood up.

He opened the window, and snowflakes fluttered down from the deep black sky.

Yaochi leaned back, leaned on the soft bed, supported his temple with one hand, looked at his back, and asked with a smile: "What great thing? Having a baby? Or rebellion?"

"What's so great about rebellion? Let's talk about it after you have a baby. Let's talk about becoming a fairy."

"That's nothing to talk about, I don't know anything." Yaochi looked at his fingernails again by the light, with a serious attitude, as if he was an examiner testing ancient nail trimming techniques.

"What information is useful to me?" Li Changzhou turned around and asked her.

A gust of cold wind blew in, and Li Changzhou's long hair and long sleeves of his toga fluttered. With the window and heavy snow as the background, Li Changzhou looked even more dusty.

"Close the window!" The beauty under the lamp glared at him.

Li Changzhou closed the window, and the moment he closed it, he knew he had fallen for the trick. To give blood beads and close the window, she said one thing, and he did one thing himself.

But it's too deliberate to open it now.

If you want to blame it, you can blame yourself for not being in a relationship, and you fell into her beauty trap without knowing it, huh?Does Yao Chi have love experience?Although I know that she is a virgin, it does not mean that she has no love experience.

Yaochi didn't know what the little virgin was thinking, and said: "Since Zhu Yuanzhang, the emperor's dragon veins have been added to his body, and all methods are invincible, including elixirs and cultivation methods."

"The blood beads and jade pills are useless?" Li Changzhou frowned.

"Yu Dan is definitely useless, maybe there are blood beads."

"It seems that we can only rely on these." Li Changzhou cast his eyes on the elixir on the soft table, strengthening yang, strengthening yang, strengthening yang, these are just medicinal materials, not elixirs.

"I'll go with you tomorrow."

"Ok?"

"There is still a difference between us and practitioners. Skills are skills, not spells."

Li Changzhou was taken aback for a moment.

Yaochi Meiyu Wuxia smiled meaningfully: "Tomorrow let him sit on the auspicious clouds that only gods can have."

"So that's it! Good!" Li Changzhou smiled and clapped his hands together, "I'll use teleportation again to make sure he is obedient."

"Are you and I working together, are you afraid that we may not be able to handle this feudal emperor?" Yao Chi said with a smile, "As long as we gain Jiajing's trust, no matter how the dragon veins are used, we can take the lead. The reason why I changed my identity and sneaked into the palace."

There was a knocking sound outside, and the room was silent for a while.

Yaochi's smile became a little heart-pounding: "It's late at night, rest?"

On this snowy night, her voice had a special tranquility.

"Well, you rest, I'll go find Qinglan and my sister."

Throw over two bottles of aphrodisiac.

"Get out! Pervert!"

Ok?
◇

Li Changzhou left Chaotian Palace, quietly left the Forbidden City, and drifted into the capital in 1539 in the snowstorm.

There are lights everywhere, and I don't know how many people have no sleep tonight.

After the snow fell, Li Changzhou called Li Qianxia over, and she hid with Yang Qinglan in an uninhabited courtyard in the south of the city.

The south of the city is mostly the residences of officials, and the security environment is the best, and generally no one will come to the door suddenly.

The three met and chatted all night, telling each other about each other's identities, missions, and speculation about this mission.

Yang Qinglan is the descendant of Gushe Mountain. Really, people in the Jianghu are called the Goddess of Gushe.

Li Qianxia is one of the Five Heavenly Monarchs of the Divine Sect, the Pengnv. Rumor has it that she likes the Heavenly Emperor and is jealous of the Queen of Heaven. There are also rumors that Pengnv is the younger sister of the Heavenly Emperor.

The status of the divine religion is like that of the Bailian Sect, Huojudao, and Lingbao Sect. They are all wanted criminals by the imperial court, and they are worse than the monks of this era. Few people know their true colors.

This is also the reason why Li Changzhou and Yaochi were able to sneak into the Forbidden City, and there were rumors between Li Changzhou and Li Qianxia.

The missions of the three are the same, and so is Yaochi, all of them are [Crossing Tribulation and Become Immortal].

"Yaochi said that this is the catastrophe of heaven." Li Changzhou relayed, "In ancient times, when a practitioner became an immortal, he had to go through the 'human catastrophe'. There are various disasters. Generally speaking, people of the same realm interact with each other. Fighting, a group of outstanding people fighting, only those who survive can become immortals."

"Sister Yaochi is here?" Li Qianxia became happy.

This mission is different from the past, it is not a simple black card and white card, the four of them can join forces.

The four teamed up, Li Qianxia couldn't think of who else would be their opponent, if there was, then there was nothing they could do, they really couldn't win, this side was already studded.

"Based on her "instinct". Is it a concubine?" Yang Qinglan asked.

"Probably." Li Changzhou didn't dare to delve into this topic, although the distribution of identities had nothing to do with him.

"Where are the dragon veins? How can you use the dragon veins to become immortals?" Li Qianxia asked them, murmuring to herself.

"Emperor Jiajing must be the key." Li Changzhou was also thinking about this issue. "I am in the palace, and you are outside. Find ways to find out information. Recently, many practitioners have come to the capital, so you should be careful."

"There are masters in the palace, you have to be careful yourself." Yang Qinglan's voice was soft and pleasant, and she looked at him with her eyes.

Li Changzhou couldn't help showing a smile, and nodded.

"The Queen of God, and the other Four Great Heavenly Sovereigns are also here. If we can find them and ask them to help, we should have a great chance of success." Li Qianxia thought.

"Queen of Heaven?" Yang Qinglan's clear eyes flickered for a moment.

She has a very good memory, remembering that Li Changzhou's answer was "I guess". Is Tianhou considered a concubine?
Li Changzhou had already begun to consider whether he would be buried in Tianshou Mountain or thrown into the moat.

The sound of drums came from various towers, and the bleak and deserted capital city suddenly became noisy, with shouts, sedan chairs, horses' hooves, and singing.

As soon as the fifth watch is over, the curfew is lifted, those who do business do business, and those who go to court go to court.

"I'm leaving first, you must be careful, call me directly if you have anything to do, don't care if I'm with Emperor Jiajing or not!"

"Well, brother, you too, call us if you need anything."

Li Changzhou teleported directly back to Chaotian Palace.

Yaochi sat cross-legged on the couch, flipping through the jade book in his hand, and seeing him coming back, he just raised his eyes and said coldly: "You're back happily?"

Li Changzhou didn't bother to pay attention to her, went into the side hall and changed into the purple clothes and jade belt bestowed by Jiajing.

As soon as the clothes are worn, there is a bit of secular luxury in the dusty temperament.

Yao Chi's beautiful eyes flashed, and she praised with a smile: "It's so handsome."

I have no idea when she is angry and when she is not.

Not long after, Jiajing really sent someone to Xuan to meet the two of them in the side hall.

Both of them don't know ancient etiquette—Yaochi probably does, and based on the impression in the TV series, they made a random joke.

I don't know if it's right, but Emperor Jiajing didn't say it anyway.

After bestowing a seat and exchanging pleasantries, Emperor Jiajing asked directly: "Two priests, I am devoted to cultivating the mystic, is there a method?"

Li Changzhou smiled, and the heartbeats of the surrounding maids obviously accelerated. He asked Emperor Jiajing, "What kind of tricks has your Majesty learned?"

"In these years, there are countless Taoist priests around me, but I have only learned two things. One is fasting and offering sacrifices, and the other is collecting yin and nourishing yang."

"What is fasting ceremony?" Li Changzhou asked.

Emperor Jiajing glanced at him with suspicion.

Don't even know about the fasting ceremony?
I don't know, Li Changzhou is the number one student in liberal arts, but the word Zhaijiao is not included in the examination scope.

If it was an ordinary Taoist asking, Emperor Jiajing would immediately lose interest, but Li Changzhou behaved calmly, with the demeanor of knowing what he knew and not knowing what he didn't know, which made him dispel the contempt in his heart.

The most important thing is that Li Changzhou was thundered and snowed yesterday.

"The so-called fasting ceremony is to build a Taoist altar. After fasting and musing, pray to the gods and present Qingci." The eunuch next to Emperor Jiajing explained.

"How long has Your Majesty been practicing fasting?" Li Changzhou asked again.

"From the third year of Jiajing." Another eunuch replied.

"Is it effective?"

"Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't." The eunuch continued, saying that Emperor Jiajing is still alive.

He let the eunuch speak, testing Li Changzhou's truth, if the eunuch said something wrong, he would be able to save the situation.

"Wrong." Li Changzhou said, "It doesn't work at all. The so-called success is just a coincidence."

Emperor Jiajing finally frowned.

The eunuch waited for a while, seeing that Emperor Jiajing still had no intention of speaking, he continued to ask, "Dare to ask Master Li, what's wrong?"

"There are no gods in the world." Li Changzhou said.

"There are no gods?" The eunuch was startled in his heart, not because he was a god or not, but because he was afraid that the emperor would be angry.

Over the years, any officials who persuaded the emperor not to believe in faith would be demoted at least, or imprisoned at worst. Emperor Jiajing's obsession with Taoism has become a demon.

"Without gods, what's the use of praying to gods?" Li Changzhou waved his sleeves.

The glamorous but out-of-the-ordinary Yao Chi looked at him with both eyes, and seemed to like his attitude very much.

The eunuch glanced at Emperor Jiajing's face, and said, "What about collecting yin and nourishing yang?"

"Be specific."

"Having sex with a virgin, taking the elixir made from the blood of a virgin's first menarche."

"Does Your Majesty want to hear the truth?" Li Changzhou looked at Emperor Jiajing.

"It depends on whether it is true." Emperor Jiajing finally spoke.

"The two skills His Majesty has learned, fasting and sacrificial offerings are useless, and waste money; as for harvesting yin and nourishing yang, at most it is only useful for enriching the harem and multiplying the emperor's heirs."

The eunuch trembled with fright.

All the real people in the palace, including the big real Shao Yuanjie, are all from the Pope, but this newcomer Shenxiao real person actually uttered wild words, saying that they are all fake!

In terms of ability, Shao Yuanjie and the others are also very powerful, so why do you say that you are right and they are wrong?

Emperor Jiajing didn't get angry, and his tone became more gentle: "How do you prove that the fasting ceremony and harvesting yin to replenish yang are false?"

"Will Your Majesty come with me?" Li Changzhou smiled.

"Where?"

"moon."

"The moon?!" Emperor Jiajing stood up.

"Seeing is worse than hearing a hundred times." Li Changzhou also stood up, "Your Majesty, why don't you go and see if there is Chang'e on the moon. If not, it will naturally prove that the feast is fake."

As he spoke, he took two quick steps forward, and before anyone could react, he had already grabbed Emperor Jiajing's sleeve and looked at him intently.

The eunuchs rushed to stop him, and the guards outside the palace had already put their hands on the handle of the saber. As long as Emperor Jiajing gave an order, these guards would rush in, break Li Changzhou's legs, and wait for what to do.

Any Taoist priest in this situation will be punished.

Within a certain range around Emperor Jiajing, mana and Taoism did not exist, just like superstition.

"True man, real man, let go quickly!" The eunuch couldn't pull Li Changzhou's hand away.

Emperor Jiajing didn't order the guards to come in either. He felt that Li Changzhou's eyes were like a fairy asking him: Do you have the courage to become a fairy?

"Okay!" Emperor Jiajing said, "The real person will take me to the moon to have a look!"

"Your Majesty—" the eunuch almost knelt down in fright.

Where is the moon?Who can go to the moon?That is the heaven, only gods can go up there!
"Haha!" Li Changzhou laughed loudly, "You don't need fasting to become an immortal, you don't need to collect yin to replenish yang, you only need the method, and a courageous and diligent heart. The day of your majesty's immortality is just around the corner!"

"Congratulations, Your Majesty." Yao Chi got up and saluted with a smile.

"Congratulations, Your Majesty, congratulations, Your Majesty!" The eunuch who was crying just now, regardless of whether it was true or not, knelt down before speaking.

"Really, how do you go to the moon?" Emperor Jiajing was not indulged in flattery.

Li Changzhou glanced at Yao Chi, Yao Chi smiled lightly, a cloud descended from the sky and landed in front of the side hall gate.

"Your Majesty, come with me!" Regardless of the exclamation of the maids and eunuchs, the obstruction of the guards, and the retreat of Emperor Jiajing, Li Changzhou pulled Emperor Jiajing and walked towards Xiangyun.

After entering a certain range, the auspicious cloud still did not disappear, and the skill was indeed effective.

"Your Majesty, please go to Xiangyun." Li Changzhou smiled.

The eunuchs, maids, and imperial guards were all trembling, looking at the white clouds in front of them in disbelief.

Emperor Jiajing carefully raised his steps and landed his feet.

It's soft, but firm!
Emperor Jiajing's heart was beating wildly. Since he ascended the throne, he has been obsessed with Taoism. Now 18 years, he has seen countless strange people and strange things, and seen real people calling the wind and rain, but when it came to him, Taoist palaces were built one after another. Qing Ci Write one after another and get nothing.

But now, he is on the auspicious cloud!

"Your Majesty, stand firm, let's go see if Chang'e is there!"

Auspicious clouds rose from the ground, carrying Emperor Jiajing, Li Changzhou, and Yao Chi, and flew towards the cloudy and snowy sky.

"Your Majesty, it's cold in the sky, put on your cloak! Your Majesty! Your Majesty!"

Emperor Jiajing looked down and saw that Huang Jin was running wildly on the snow-white palace square with his cloak and cloak in his arms, shouting loudly, and turned into a small black spot in the whiteness in a blink of an eye.

He looked around, the snow was shining freely, the Forbidden City, the capital, everything was in his eyes.

The cool wind was blowing, snowflakes were flying, and the yellow tiles, red walls, houses, and bridges below passed by in succession.

The sky was blue, the sun was shining brightly, and the sea of ​​clouds was billowing.

"Hahahaha!" Emperor Jiajing laughed loudly, he only felt that his heart was open, and he finally had the state of mind of an emperor swallowing the world.

No, it's the happy life of immortals roaming around the world!

Li Changzhou stood aside, his clothes fluttering like a god, he said with a smile: "Your Majesty, the moon is far away from us, we must speed up next."

Before Emperor Jiajing could react, the auspicious clouds under his feet flew out, and the sea of ​​clouds below was pulled by a long wave of white clouds.

Emperor Jiajing closed his eyes tightly, and after an unknown amount of time, the speed finally slowed down.

"Your Majesty, we are here."

Emperor Jiajing slowly opened his eyes, only to see desolation, potholes, brown and gray land spreading endlessly.

"Here?" He looked around.

Li Changzhou traveled to and from the moon for half a month in January. In order to satisfy Yang Qinglan and Li Qianxia's desire to go to the moon, he developed the "ability" bubble that can move freely on the moon based on "Thai Betta Oxygen Bubble".

In the bubble, you can breathe freely for a short time, and you will not be disturbed by radiation or moon dust.

"Here is the moon, and there—" Li Changzhou pointed to the sky, where the distant earth like a large blue glass bead hangs, "Your Majesty, please look, there is the land of China."

Emperor Jiajing looked at the blue bead, unable to regain his senses for a long time.

On the last day of 1539, the [-]th day of the twelfth lunar month, New Year's Eve, Emperor Jiajing's world view was shattered.

　Ask for a monthly pass.
