I just want to make money

Chapter 218 Lin Zhuangyuan went straight into the purple robe, the imperial envoy
Lin Yi got up.

Go to the door and open the door.

Shouted to the outside: "Xuan, Zhao Lingji entered the hall."

Zhao Ling wore a gorgeous Taoist robe on his body, took his two apprentices, dragged the white jade box with one hand, and picked up the Taoist robe with the other and walked quickly into the hall.

When he came to Emperor Huizong of Song Dynasty, he bowed and saluted with a smile on his face, "I paid homage to the emperor of Yuqing Cult Master Wei Miaodao. Fortunately, Xiaodao finally produced a batch of golden elixirs after one year and two months. There are nine in total. Extreme numbers, it is foretelling that my Emperor Ninth Five-Year Lord should enjoy this furnace of golden elixir."

As he spoke, he held up the white jade box with both hands and raised it above his head.

"Here is the golden elixir, for His Majesty to take."

Song Huizong showed an excited expression, "Well, well, wait for two years and finally wait for the golden elixir to be refined. After I take it, there will be a big reward."

As he spoke, he stood up, took the white jade box and opened it, and saw nine pills the size of colorful glass beads in the jade box.

Looking at the color, Lin Yi knew that the heavy metal content must be extremely high.

It is indeed Jindan.

Metal gold.

"Show me, the pavilion in the Imperial Garden, I want to take the elixir there." Song Huizong ordered.

The eunuchs immediately prepared.

Song Huizong personally held the jade box and came down to the gazebo by the lake in the Royal Garden surrounded by the crowd.

There are blue waves and lotus leaves in the distance, and a gentle breeze nearby. There are light gauze curtains hanging around the pavilion, swinging gently with the wind. Song Huizong is sitting in the pavilion in a Taoist robe, which does have a sense of immortality.

Open the jade box.

Taking another look at the golden pill, Song Huizong asked Zhao Lingji, "How to take it?"

"Go back to the official's house and take it with warm water." Zhao Lingji said with a smile.

Song Huizong nodded, took the Ru Kiln tea bowl handed over by the eunuch, threw a golden pill into his mouth, and sent it down with warm water.

Then he closed his eyes and began to meditate cross-legged.

Everyone looked at Song Huizong, the surroundings were unusually quiet, and people did not dare to breathe loudly. After a stick of incense passed, Song Huizong's face turned red suddenly, and his whole body began to tremble.

"Your Majesty, is Your Majesty alright?"

The eunuch asked Zhao Lingji nervously: "Master Zhao, what's the matter, Your Majesty, are you alright?"

Zhao Lingji looked at Song Huizong, his heart was also beating, but he still pretended to be calm and said: "It's okay, it may be that the medicine is too strong, Your Majesty is at the key point of the exercise, don't disturb."

Before his words fell, Song Huizong suddenly jumped up, shook off the floating body in his hand, and tore off the purple Taoist robe on his body, revealing the underwear inside.

"Ah, so sad, so painful!"

Everyone around was shocked, and many people were so frightened that they were at a loss.

Zhao Lingji also became confused. In fact, he didn't know what would happen to the pills he made.

Song Huizong ran forward while shouting.

He was already very close to the lake, and he ran to the lake in three or two steps, and then jumped into the lake, and everyone around him screamed in fright.

At this moment, Lin Yi shouted loudly:
"Save Your Majesty~!"

After shouting, the first one jumped into the lake.

Song Huizong was struggling in the lake, Lin Yi swam over, hugged Song Huizong's body and dragged him back forcefully, only then did the imperial guards and several eunuchs in the distance react and jumped into the water one after another. Get ashore.

But at this time Song Huizong was already in a coma.

"Your Majesty, what's the matter with you, Your Majesty, please pass on to the Imperial Physician, pass on to the Imperial Physician~!" the leading eunuch roared vigorously.

Lin Yi looked at Zhao Lingji, who was dumbfounded, and said loudly to the guards of the imperial guards around him: "Zhao Lingji is suspected of murdering His Majesty, arrest him."

The guards immediately started to arrest Zhao Lingji.

at this time,
Zhao Lingji's suspicion was indeed ranked first. Zhao Lingji and his apprentice were pushed to the ground, their Taoist crowns were knocked off, and their hair was disheveled. They didn't look like immortal masters at all.

Zhao Lingji was so frightened that he kept struggling and begging for mercy, "I did not harm His Majesty, I was wronged."

"Your Majesty took your elixir to do this. You are still wronged. If there is something wrong with Your Majesty, Ling Chi will take it lightly." The eunuch in charge screamed.

As the eunuchs next to the emperor, they cannot absolve themselves of the responsibility for the emperor's accident, and now they have to find someone to take the blame.

at this time.

Song Huizong woke up suddenly. He looked at Zhao Lingji who was pressed on the ground, then at the surrounding eunuchs, and finally fixed his gaze on Lin Yi.

He said in a weak voice, "Lin Qing, now I give you the title of imperial envoy, take my sword, have the right to act arbitrarily, handle this matter with full authority, and investigate clearly who is trying to murder me."

Then he looked at the commander of the Royal Palace Guard who was kneeling beside him, and said in a serious tone, "Zhao Gang, from now on, you have full authority to obey Lin Qing's orders. Now Lin Qing's words are my words. Forgive me."

Zhao Gang fell to the ground.

"The minister leads the order!"

As Song Huizong said, he pulled down the jade pendant from his waist and handed it to Lin Yi tremblingly, "You take this, if you encounter resistance during the investigation, show this to them, and see the jade pendant as if I were here in person."

"It's an official."

Lin Yi took the jade pendant.

Seeing Song Huizong waking up, Zhao Lingji knew that if he didn't speak again, he might be doomed, so he begged for mercy loudly: "Your Majesty, please forgive me, there must be something wrong, let Xiaodao fix it for you, and it will be fine."

"Your Majesty, I also refined the elixir according to the ancient recipe, and it's not my fault."

Song Huizong glanced at Zhao Lingji, then tilted his head and passed out again.

"His Majesty."

"Your Majesty~~~!"

Lin Yi yelled, the eunuch yelled, the commander of the Imperial Guard Zhao Gang yelled, and Zhao Lingji yelled too. They yelled more cheerfully than the toads in the lake. It was so lively.

Lin Yi stood up and ordered the eunuch loudly: "Send Your Majesty back to the Longevity Palace immediately and call the imperial physician for diagnosis and treatment."

He turned his head to look at the commander of the imperial guards, "Zhao Gang, take care of Zhao Lingji and three people, and separate out a team to immediately arrest the owner of Zhao Lingji's gymnasium and seize all items for investigation."

"In addition, all entrances and exits of the palace are sealed off, no one is allowed to enter or leave, and news from the palace is not allowed to be leaked, and anyone who violates the rules will be killed."

Zhao Gang responded immediately.

First, Zhao Lingji and his disciples were taken away and imprisoned, then the eunuchs and maids serving in the imperial garden were assembled and not allowed to go anywhere, and finally the gate of the palace was closed to allow entry and no exit.

The imperial doctor came and felt Zhao Ji's pulse. He felt that his meridians were in disarray, and he was so frightened that he broke out in cold sweat. Lin Yi asked anxiously, "The imperial doctor, what's your majesty's condition?"

"Your Majesty's pulse condition is chaotic, and I really can't find out what's wrong." The imperial doctor thought that the same is true for dying people.

Lin Yi thought for a while and said, "I suspect that His Majesty has been poisoned. You should prescribe a detoxification prescription for His Majesty based on the poison."

"But, I don't know what kind of poison in the poison and how to detoxify it?" The imperial doctor asked.

"Use the general detoxification formula." Lin Yi shouted.

The imperial doctor trembled in fright, but Wei Wei should be right, so he hurried down to get medicine, while Lin Yi brought the imperial guards to another place, and began to interrogate Zhao Lingji.

His two apprentices were also detained and interrogated separately.

Zhao Lingji's face was pale with fright now, and he had long since lost the arrogance of the immortal masters in the past. When he saw Lin Yi coming over, he knelt down and begged for mercy.

Lin Yi asked him about the elixir. At first, this guy wanted to hide it, but he was so frightened that he confessed it in just three sentences.

His so-called alchemy, at best, is to refine some pills similar to strengthening the body, strengthening yang and tonifying the kidney, but these imperial doctors can also do it, so he made the so-called longevity gimmick to fool people.

In the past, he used the slogan of being able to refine longevity pills in the arena, and he made a name for himself. He deceived people by fooling around. Even if he took his pills, it would take decades to increase his lifespan. be discovered later.

With his eloquence and ability to fool people, his reputation is growing day by day. Later, Cai You found him and hoped that he would make alchemy for the emperor's official family. Zhao Lingji felt that the time had come for him to make a fortune, so he followed him.

But Song Huizong's requirements are much higher than those of wealthy businessmen and officials. What Song Huizong seeks is longevity. He asked him to practice the elixir that can give him longevity. He asked him if he could make it. the elixir.

This is still a conscience. He only said 60 years, not 1000 years.

But after he returned, he had a problem, how to practice it, and finally he found a large number of alchemy classics, and began to imitate the alchemy above.

Time flies and a year has passed, Song Huizong has been urging him so hard these days, Zhao Lingji has no choice but to bite the bullet and refine this batch of elixir.

In fact, these elixirs are indeed toxic, and the heavy metal content is extremely high, but it is not enough to kill a single one.

The previous coma by jumping into the lake was completely staged.

Lin Yi is going to sing a big show, no matter what, there must be a vigorous opening, to catch everyone's attention at once.

As for Zhao Lingji's two apprentices,

Miki couldn't ask for anything, and told everything he knew.

Lin Yi asked people to confirm the confession, and then immediately ordered Zhao Gang to lead a large number of imperial guards to Zhao Lingji's gym.

Immediately, many people came forward to expose what their master Zhao Lingji had done.

In the gymnasium,

A large amount of gold and silver treasures were also found. On the one hand, these were rewarded by Emperor Huizong of Song Dynasty, on the one hand, they were offered by incense, and on the other hand, they were bribed by officials.

That's right,

It's official bribery.

Because Song Huizong respected Taoist priests, he spent much more time with them than with ministers every day. Some ministers may not be able to see the emperor for several years or even decades.

People knew that it was better to flatter these Taoist priests than other people, so many people came to them to clear up their relationship. If they had the opportunity to speak well in front of the emperor, they would be promoted soon.

This Zhao Lingji is also a caring person. He has a note, and he will write down anyone who has bribed him, including the name and amount.

This note was also in Lin Yi's hands.

The treasures in the gymnasium are not counted, just counting gold and silver money, there are more than 100 million guan. Damn, being a Taoist priest can make money like this.

Lin Yi flipped through it briefly, with a sneer on his face, and then entered the space.

Not in a hurry,
These accounts will be calculated slowly later.

Now the Great Song Dynasty belongs to Song Huizong on the surface, but in fact it already belongs to him. What these moths do is completely ruining his country.

Lin Yi kept moving.

After dealing with Zhao Lingji's gymnasium, immediately let Zhao Gang divide his troops into two groups to control the gymnasiums of Li Shanlei and Yang Daoxuan.

what,
You said how did Zhao Lingji's matter involve Li Shanlei and Yang Daoxuan?
Lin Yi said that there are, and all he has to do is to kill them, and they are not good birds.

what,
You said that Lin Yi was ungrateful and turned his face against others?

Do not,
It can only be said that it was premeditated.

When Lin Yi paid in installments back then, it was already arranged that there would be today.

First came to Li Shanlei's Daoist Palace, and after a short while the imperial guards reported that the other Taoist priests were there, as well as their belongings, but Daoist Li Shanlei was not there.

Later, a Taoist priest close to Li Shanlei was brought in for interrogation, and the Taoist priest confessed: "Yesterday, the master said that he thought that he was in great trouble, and if he didn't leave today, he might be in prison tomorrow, so he told us to keep an eye on the gymnasium. I just left Bianjing in a carriage, but the master didn’t say where he went.”

Lin Yi narrowed his eyes.

He said in his heart that Li Shanlei was the best at ordering orders, and it seemed that he had some skills, which really saved him from disaster.

Either way,

Run and run.

What Lin Yi wanted was not to kill people. His biggest goal was to make everyone familiar with the original Song Huizong disappear, so that there would be no way to find out the clues in the future.

Of course, against the Three Taoists,
The main purpose is to eliminate the original Taoist influence and put the future development of the court on the right track. After all, the demise of the Song Dynasty was also due to Song Huizong's over-respect for Taoism.

It is not very powerful now. In another year or two, a Taoist priest surnamed Lin came to the capital. Song Huizong highly praised him and began to build temples all over the country. For this reason, he had to increase taxes and waste money, which greatly affected the country. The people everywhere could not survive and had to rebel one after another.

Lin Yi asked the imperial guards to search.

More than 100 million pieces of property were found.

Lin Yi brought people to Yang Daoxuan's Daoist Palace again, Lin Yi was very familiar with this place, in the open space in front of the Daoist Hall, Yang Daoxuan and a group of young Taoist priests gathered together, looking at the imperial guards with swords, guns, swords and halberds around him, Yang Daoxuan's heart trembled. trembling.

He still doesn't know what happened?
When Yang Daoxuan saw Lin Yi, his eyes immediately flashed the light of survival.

"Lin Zhuangyuan, what is this, why is this, why suddenly the imperial guards came to block the gymnasium, I want to see your majesty."

"Daoist Yang, come talk with me in the hall." Lin Yi said.

Yang Daoxuan hurriedly followed and approached the main hall.

Lin Yi didn't play tricks with him either, and said, "Master Zhao Lingji offered the golden pill to His Majesty, and His Majesty was almost poisoned to death after eating it. Now, I'm ordered to thoroughly investigate this matter for the imperial envoy."

Yang Daoxuan was shocked.

"But this matter has nothing to do with me?"

Yang Daoxuan felt that he was wronged.

Lin Yi shook his head, "Zhao Lingji said that he refined elixirs and sold a lot of Daoist books from you, and you also provided him with some elixirs and suggestions."

Yang Daoxuan was immediately annoyed, and cursed, "That bastard Zhao Lingji, I was only discussing Taoism and alchemy with him, why did he put the pot of shit on my head, Lin Zhuangyuan, you must help me speak well in front of His Majesty In a few words, this matter has nothing to do with me."

Lin Yi shook his head, "Your Majesty has ordered that all three of you should be killed."

Only then did Yang Daoxuan realize the seriousness of the matter, he was dumbfounded, and then he looked at Lin Yi and kept bowing.

"Lin Zhuangyuan, you have to save me, save me!"

Lin Yi remained calm.

Yang Daoxuan was not stupid, he immediately understood what was going on, he quickly brought Lin Yi to his room, and took out a Daoist book from a hidden compartment, "Lin Zhuangyuan, this is the complete copy of Panlong Kungfu, this is for you, I Guaranteed by life, this is definitely the whole story."

Lin Yi took the book and looked at it, thinking that yours is definitely not the full version, the one rewarded by the system is the full version, but he still kept the Panlong Gong in his sleeve.

Continue to look at Yang Daoxuan without speaking.

Yang Daoxuan looked embarrassed, gritted his teeth, and took out a wooden box from another hidden compartment. When he opened it, there was a thick Jiaozi ticket inside.

"Lin Zhuangyuan, here are 30 guan, all of which will be given to you."

Lin Yi still didn't speak.

Anger flashed in Yang Daoxuan's eyes, and he thought that Lin Zhuangyuan was really greedy. Finally, he found a small wooden box from another hidden compartment. After opening it, there were several house deeds and land deeds.

"Lin Zhuangyuan, here are three properties in Bianjing, and two land deeds worth about 30 yuan."

Lin Yi brought Yang Daoxuan to the front yard and ordered the imperial guards to arrest him. Yang Daoxuan looked at Lin Yi in surprise, "You, you don't talk about martial arts, I gave you all the money, why don't you let it go?" I!"

Lin Yi smiled lightly.

"Those are His Majesty's, and I will not be bribed."

Now Song Huizong is Lin Yi's clone, the emperor's is actually his, so there is no need for private transactions.

Now you don't charge money, and you can still earn a good reputation.

Then Lin Yi ordered the imperial guards to search and put all the prisoners in prison for processing. As for whether the priests knew Taoism, killed the imperial guards and escaped, or did other things, in fact, through contact with Lin Yi, we knew that the force of these Taoist priests It's not high, it's just that some of his abilities are weird and mysterious, but in real fighting, Yang Daoxuan, who has achieved success in cultivation like this, can't do a few tricks in his hands.

The series of actions taken by the imperial guards to arrest the three Taoist priests has already alarmed all the civil and military ministers in Bianjing, Xungui.

Although Lin Yi came down to block the news, it is impossible to completely seal it off. Those who are well-informed naturally know what happened in the palace. His Majesty was almost poisoned to death by taking drugs, so he issued an arrest warrant for his three most trusted immortal masters. A lot of people understand.

Another point that attracted people's attention was that it was not Cai Jing, Gao Qiu, Cai You, Wang Fu, Tong Guan Yang Jianliang who presided over the affairs this time, but Lin Yilin Dongyang, the number one scholar in the current department.

It is said that His Majesty bestowed Shang Fang with a sword and a jade pendant, and appointed him as an imperial envoy to thoroughly investigate the matter, with the right to make arbitrary decisions on the fly, and the imperial guards were at their disposal.

Many people are now beating drums in their hearts at home, for fear of being implicated.

But people like Cai Jing, Gao Qiu, Tong Guan, and Wang Fu were not feeling well. His Majesty didn't notify them to deal with such a big incident, but appointed a newcomer, Lin Yi. Could it be that he and others are out of date? Tiantian turned into Mrs. Niu, a new generation replaced the old one?
And at night,
Another message came from the palace.

All the big eunuchs who served the emperor on weekdays were arrested, and a new group of eunuchs were replaced. Seventy to eighty young eunuchs were implicated.

this night,
Many people in the capital have not slept and have been waiting for the latest news from the palace, including Cai Jing, who is nearly 70 years old.

Cai family.

Cai Jing, Cai Bian, Cai You, Cai Yu's father, son, uncle and nephew were there, they ignored the cold tea, Cai You said, "Father, let's find a way to meet the officials, and we can't let Lin Yi control everything by himself. .”

It was rumored that the relationship between Cai Jing and Cai You's father and son was at odds, but in fact, it was all for others to see. The Cai family all had official positions, and this was just to prevent His Majesty and outsiders from being too jealous.

Cai He also agreed with the elder brother's opinion, "Yes, father, we can't be with His Majesty at this time, what will outsiders think of our Cai family and father."

The Cai family narrowed their eyes, and it took a long time before they said: "This time, it is good that the Cai family can not be implicated, as for other matters, we can discuss it in another day."

"Why implicate our Cai family, there is no reason?" Cai Yu asked in surprise.

Cai Jing glanced at his eldest son and said, "Those three Taoist priests were all recommended to the officials by your elder brother."

Cai You was also taken aback.

There was no sound in the room.

Cai Jing guessed right,

the next day,
The news came from the palace that His Majesty has woken up. It was indeed poisoned. Part of it has been cured now, and he still needs to stay in bed for a period of time for treatment. It will take about a month to completely remove the remaining poison.

It is said that His Majesty woke up,

After listening to Lin Zhuangyuan's report, he issued three imperial edicts.

The first imperial decree was to grant Lin Yi the title of Zhongshusheren, a direct scholar of Longtuge, and to walk before the imperial court, and order him to be an imperial envoy to continue to investigate the matter thoroughly.

Many people were shocked,
Zhongshusheren is the fourth rank, the secretary who is responsible for drafting the edict by the emperor, and Liang Shicheng is the one who wrote the imperial edict by the emperor.

Officially speaking, the emperor's edict should be drafted and written by Zhongshu Sheren. Later, Song Huizong felt that he was constrained by civil officials, so he changed it to be written by eunuchs.

In any case, the rights of this Zhongshu Sheren are very important. They have the right to write imperial edicts for the emperor and participate in the secret affairs of the court.

As for the direct bachelor of Longtu Pavilion, the official title is Cong Sanpin, which is a false title, but this Cong Sanpin has a great use here.

According to the official rules of the Song Dynasty, from the third rank and above is the purple robe, from the sixth rank and above is the scarlet robe, and from the ninth rank and above is the green robe. Lin Yi was originally in the green robe, but now he jumped over the red robe and jumped into the ranks of purple robes.

Zipao is already an important minister of the court.

With this Longtuge direct bachelor's degree, Lin Yi can directly put on the purple robe.

It's only three or four months since Jinshi's assignment work, some officials may have just arrived at the place where they took office, and the situation has not yet been figured out, and Qin Hui's bones are not rotten yet, Lin Yi has already become an important minister of the court A member of the third rank.

This promotion speed is faster than the rocket.

If it is surprising that Lin Yi was promoted to eight levels in one step, the other two imperial edicts issued by the emperor are even more shocking.

An imperial decree to revoke all positions of Cai You,
Cai You, who was originally a member of the third rank, suddenly became a commoner.

This is not over yet.

Another imperial decree was sent to Cai Jing's house, denouncing Cai Jing's incompetence in discipline, causing Cai You to use evil ways to murder His Majesty, and Cai Jing fined his salary for three days and half a year for self-examination.

Cai Jing knelt down to receive the order.

I stayed in the study for three days and three nights without eating or drinking.

Now the entire capital of Bianjing already knows what happened in the palace, and it feels that the changes are dazzling. It's not that they don't understand, but the world is changing fast.

Could it be that the Cai family is about to lose power?

But now they can fully see that the number one scholar Lin Yilin has completely won the favor of His Majesty, more favored than Cai Jing, Wang Fu, Cai You, Gao Qiu and everyone else.

Many people are eyeing Lin Yi, ready to curry favor with this high official Lin.
