Fake Taoists in the world of film and television

Chapter 219
"It smells so good, the national teacher can still cook?"

Ying Zheng picked up a bowl and put it to his mouth. Although it was not a delicacy, the taste was extremely delicious, with a faint fragrance of medicinal herbs.

"It's a random creation, your majesty will try it."

Yi Buhuo smiled and said that he hadn't cooked by himself for a long time. During this time, he only cooked for high-ranking people, and he didn't know if his skills had deteriorated.

"Yes, it looks like a simple bowl of white porridge, but it is rich in flavor. When it flows into your stomach, you will feel a wave of heat spreading throughout your body, and you will feel refreshed instantly!"

Ying Zheng was full of praise. He had to deal with government affairs every day. He slept later than a dog and got up earlier than a chicken. In addition, his body was no longer young and his head was groggy all day long.

After eating a bowl of porridge, although it tasted really good, he was used to eating delicacies from the mountains and seas, so he didn't think it was anything special, but the effect of this bowl of porridge was unique!
"This rice is carefully cultivated by my friend Cui Wenzi. It matures every year and is very good for the body. Knowing that His Majesty was coming, he took it out to cook with His Majesty's appreciation. His efforts over the years have not been in vain."

"Doctor Cui is interested."

Ying Zheng put down the empty bowl that had been licked clean and was filled with admiration.

He had already investigated Cui Wenzi's information before coming here, and he was very interested in people who could make friends with Yi Buhuo, so he praised him noncommittally, his expression full of satisfaction.

Yi Buhuo also drank his lunch and then got down to business.

"Your Majesty has already met Yi Xiaochuan, right?"

"I have observed that this person's sword-like eyebrows, starry eyes, and talent show off his talents. He is indeed an excellent alchemist as the master said."

Yi Xiaochuan's appearance is so deceptive, and even his character can't be said to be bad. It's only after getting along with him for a long time that you can understand his flaws.

This does not matter to Ying Zheng. He is a superior emperor and does not need to care about the character flaws of his subordinates, as long as they are obedient.

"What your Majesty said is absolutely true. Yi Xiaochuan does have his own uniqueness. How could a mediocre person take on such an important task!"

Yi Buhuo did not rely on his understanding of Yi Xiaochuan to cling to his pain points. Compared with his current troubles, it was meaningless to target him.

Anyway, the punishment that should be given to him has been arranged, so just think of it as his own bad taste.

Although he is no longer a child, he will not only pay attention to one thing when watching others do things, but will just treat them as if they are just out of anger for himself.

He also wanted to see if Yi Xiaochuan was placed in a high position, whether he would insist on letting nature take its course and let others bully him, and whether he would understand Gao Yao's mentality.

You don't need him to fully understand, but if you can be a little considerate, Yi Buhuo will think it's worth it.

"Your Majesty is busy with official duties, how can you have time to come here?"

Since things were developing according to the established route, he no longer paid attention.

"I feel physically tired recently, so I came out to relax."

Ying Zheng shook his head helplessly and then continued: "I heard that this friend of the Imperial Master is a heavy drinker. I happen to love wine too, and the Imperial Master happened to be a guest here, so I came uninvited. ."

"It's a blessing that Your Majesty can come here, but there is no such thing as coming uninvited."

Yi Buhuo waved his hand and said, "Although there are no magnificent delicacies like those in the palace, nor are there beautiful women singing and dancing like clouds, but there are deep forests, dense grass, luxuriant flowers, and endless birds and beasts, which makes me happy."

"Although this place lacks popularity, it is full of vitality that has never been seen in the outside world. It can best cultivate sentiments and cleanse the soul. Staying here for a while is more effective than drinking any medicine."

"His Majesty!"

Yi Buhuo smiled slightly and said: "The way to immortality is all in it!"

Ying Zhengjie praised, "Just listening to the description of the Imperial Master can make you feel relaxed and happy, the ethereal air fills the heaven and earth, and your spirits are lifted after hearing it. The Imperial Master is still living at ease."

Free ass!

Every family has its own scriptures that are difficult to recite. If he were Cui Wenzi, he would be as leisurely as he described, but he is Yi Buhuo, who wants to compete with God!

Although I am here, my heart is over there!

He could appreciate the fun in the mountains and forests, but he couldn't calm down and enjoy it at all.

His so-called way of longevity is not eating wind, drinking dew, eating qi to refine the mind, but bathing in the essence of the sun and moon, the aura of heaven and earth, washing the essence and cutting the marrow to achieve detachment.

It's a pity that Yingzheng's emperor's destiny and thoughts are all about the world, so he completely misinterpreted his meaning.

If Lao Cui were here, he might be able to embark on the path of a Qi practitioner...

He has reached his state of mind, but if he doesn't get it right, it will be in vain.

Yi Buhuo has given Lao Cui many opportunities, but it seems that he doesn't care very much. Compared with eternal life and freedom, maybe being happy in the present is his true intention!

"Your Majesty is the lord of the world, and I take care of all kinds of opportunities for the well-being of the people every day. I'm just an idler. I can't compare to Your Majesty's profound blessings. This freedom is only one-sided."

Yi Buhuo shook his head helplessly, it's just that the road is different, Zi Feiyu knows the joy of fish?
If Ying Zheng really had to give up the throne to live forever, I'm afraid he might not be willing.

It sounds easy to say "give up", but how many people can actually do it?

Rather than giving up one thing to get another, most people would choose to have them all!
Not to mention that this person is Ying Zheng!

"Your Majesty, it's already late, and it's time for my friend to wake up. I'm afraid he won't be able to keep his Wuliangye this time."

Yi Buhuo smiled slightly and stood up. How could he not understand Ying Zheng's thoughts? He hadn't left after chatting for a long time. He must have wanted something else.

"Wuliangye?"

Ying Zheng smiled and said, "I heard from the Imperial Master that this Wuliangye is probably a rare treasure. I would like to see it."

"Your Majesty, please wait a moment."

Yi Buhuo turned around and entered the room. Cui Wenzi was sitting at the table, drowsy, and it seemed that he was still drunk.

"You are so proud that Ying Zheng will wait for you at the door obediently."

"I knew something bad would happen every time I saw you."

Cui Wenzi glared at him, "Why is he here? I have nothing here, so he must be here for you."

"I am most afraid of coming into contact with such noble people. I advise you to get away as soon as possible, otherwise something will happen sooner or later. You must know that being half a king is like a half tiger!"

"This is a humble room but my virtue!"

Although he was very grateful to Lao Cui for caring about him, what happened to Yi Buhuo was too complicated and could not be explained in a short while.

"How do you know he's not here to find you? Have you underestimated your reputation too much?"

Gold will shine wherever it is. With Lao Cui's medical skills, he will be treated as a guest wherever he goes. And the more powerful the people, the more they need him. It is so easy to hide wherever they want.

Not to mention that this time it was really fate. Fate wanted to arrange a meeting between Ying Zheng and Cui Wenzi. Yi Buhuo just happened to meet.

"Stop the ink. Now that everyone is here, there's no point in pretending to be dead. If you want to send people away, then bring out the good wine."

Yi Buhuo curled his lips, what's the use of crying here, if you have the guts, go out and drive people away!
"It's really a big loss this time..."

Cui Wenzi sighed and walked aside with a sad face, opened the cover under his feet and entered the cellar.

"Hands up."

Yi Buhuo stretched his head and looked inside. The cellar was filled with wine jars, and Lao Cui was groping for a jar of wine and handing it over.

"If you didn't tell me earlier when you had so much stock, you would have ruined all my good wine."

"I have just successfully brewed these wines, and it will take some time before they can be unsealed. If it weren't for the person outside waiting, I wouldn't have taken them out."

Cui Wenzi didn't take more, but this jar already made him feel distressed. Even if he cut off a piece of his flesh, it wouldn't be so heartbreaking.

"Cui Wenzi has met His Majesty!"

"Doctor Cui, you don't need to be polite."

Ying Zheng happily asked him to sit down, his slightly rich face was rosy, there was no trace of imperial aura in an ordinary old farmer!
"Thank you, Your Majesty!"

Cui Wenzi was unreliable most of the time when he got along with Yi Buhuo, but now he was serious and there was no smile on his face, which made Yi Buhuo a little strange.

This is not a difference in status, but a difference in class. No matter how carefree and happy Cui Wenzi is, he is still a subject of Ying Zheng, and he is born with a pair of shackles.

"Your Majesty, come and have a taste of this Wuliangye. Lao Cui is very careful about it, and I have never even seen the finished product. This time, I am allowed to enjoy it with the help of Your Majesty."

Yi Buhuo was on the side to smooth things over. I am afraid he is the only one here who has the ability to ease the relationship.

Although he was in awe of Ying Zheng in his heart, he was not afraid. Although their identities were very different, the gap in individual strength was as insurmountable as a chasm.

If it weren't for his lack of ambition, the person sitting on the throne and leading the Qin Empire now might not be Ying Zheng. This is his confidence, so there are no taboos.

As for Lao Cui, he was both a teacher and a friend. In this strange world, only this old man could understand his thoughts. He had always been very considerate towards his friend Yi Buhuo. How could he be so reserved when he was here.

I patted open the mud seal and peeled off the sealed oil paper, and a strong aroma of wine filled the air.

Lao Cui, who had been serious just now, immediately revealed his true nature. He sniffed the aroma of wine in the air with a satisfied smile on his lips.

This is Wuliangye that he brewed with all his efforts. As expected, his energy was not wasted. The aroma of this wine alone surpassed all the drinks he had drunk before.

Ying Zheng was also immersed in the aroma of wine that hit his nostrils. The glutton in his stomach was immediately aroused, and he swallowed unconsciously.

Yi Buhuo poured a bowl for each of them and quietly admired their unfamiliar faces.

In fact, he was not good at drinking in his previous life, and even the recipe for Wuliangye was heard from hearsay. Unexpectedly, Lao Cui actually reproduced it, and he really lived up to his title of "Wine Fairy".

Ying Zheng and Cui Wenzi quickly came to their senses. Although the aroma of Wuliangye was strong, it should not be smelled too much. Even to normal people, it was not considered a fragrance, only the smell of alcohol reaching the sky!
Ying Zheng couldn't wait to pick up the bowl and take a sip. His body was shocked and his eyes were wide open. The burning feeling burned from his throat to his stomach, and even his breath was filled with fire.

"Good wine!"

After Yi Buhuo took a brief sip, he took out a handful of melon seeds from his satchel and placed them on the table. Drinking without food would be a waste.

Wuliangye has a lot of stamina, and it's easy to get drunk if you drink it dry, not to mention that it's the first time they drink such a strong wine. I'm afraid it will take a long time after this time, and the headache is the aftertone.

With Yi Buhuo pulling the strings, there was no sense of superiority or inferiority between the people as they pushed the cup to the cup. Even Eunuch Zhao took a sip, then ran to the side and collapsed while yelling.

"Your Majesty, there is something I don't know whether to say or not..."

After drinking for three rounds, Yi Buhuo spoke hesitantly, and then continued without waiting for Ying Zheng to reply.

"Forget it, I have to say it anyway, Your Majesty, I wonder if there are any outstanding talents around you recently? Especially those with Zhao or Gao in their names?"

"Why did the Imperial Master suddenly ask this?"

Ying Zheng has been on the battlefield for a long time and has drank the best wine. Although it was the first time he came into contact with highly distilled alcohol, he was very resistant and did not lose his mind. He was still awake at this time.

"I looked at the sky at night and discovered that the Qin Kingdom will have a disaster in the future. The first signs started from Xianyang."

Yi Buhuo did not provoke him directly, but was vague. What if Ying Zheng now knows about Zhao Gao and kills him in advance?How can this play continue?
He asked this for no other reason than he wanted to know if Gao Yao's replacement had appeared during this period after he sent him away.

If this person has not yet emerged, Yi Buhuo will be worried.

Is Gao Yao really unable to escape this fate, or is Yi Xiaochuan about to replace him as Zhao Gao?
It can't be me, can it?
Yi Buhuo didn't mind becoming Zhao Gao, but he was inexplicably the one in the game, which made him feel very unhappy.

Even if the original plot is disrupted by one of my own operations, I can't let myself be a eunuch!
He is very good at cutting other people's birds, and he can even do it when they grow out, but cutting his own is really too difficult for him, and it is simply insulting to him.

How can I say that I am also the best master in the world, and the change of dynasties can only happen in a matter of seconds? Is it that I have no cards?

"What else can the Imperial Master achieve?"

Although this matter was essentially just a hint of Yi Buhuo's bad taste, it was different when it fell on Ying Zheng's ears.

The Qin Dynasty was his hard work. As the first emperor to end the war and unify the world, he not only wanted the books to be written and the chariots to be in the same track, but also wanted the Qin Dynasty to last for eternity!
There will still be disasters?
Yi Buhuo was a true master. He did not dare to underestimate the disaster Ying Zheng mentioned in his words, and even the slightest hint of drunkenness disappeared.

"Your Majesty, there is no need to worry. Disasters are not fixed. Everything is human-made."

"I will investigate this matter when I get back."

Ying Zheng was infected by his calmness, and he subconsciously breathed a sigh of relief. Since Yi Buhuo was so calm, it proved that he had a solution, and there was no point in worrying himself.

"I would like to advise your Majesty that the secrets of heaven must not be leaked. It is not an empty talk. Your Majesty must not publicize our conversation today."

"No matter what the outcome of the investigation is, we should remain unchanged in the face of any changes!"

What Yi Buhuo fears most is that without his knowledge, Ying Zhengning kills someone by mistake and messes up the original trajectory, and then his plan is completely ruined.

But it cannot be completely ignored that his position as national master is in name only. It is impossible for him to predict everything by himself. Maybe something has happened without his knowledge.

It just so happened that Ying Zheng still trusted him, so taking advantage of the situation was his only way out now.

"Thank you for the reminder, Master."

He had more contact with Yi Buhuo and had people witness his mystery with his own eyes. Ying Zheng also believed in this aspect to some extent, so he didn't think there was anything wrong with it.

Maybe the ghosts and gods in folklore are not groundless. I am so arrogant that I have angered God and God denies my achievements. What should I do?
Will there be more hardships on my road to immortality?

After all, in his heart, Yi Buhuo is the person sent by God to test him...
