Tianyi

Chapter 62 Tianyi Sect Zhiran (4)

Zi Yi snickered and whispered to Chi Yi, "Are you afraid of being pricked by sister Huang Yi's needle?"

Chi Yi quietly replied: "Don't be afraid of getting acupuncture... the medicine is too bitter. I had a stomachache on the way. Sister Huang Yi said that if I don't follow her arrangements, the medicine will become more and more bitter."

Huang Yi glanced at Xue Yi and explained with a smile: "She was eating and drinking randomly on the road, and she suddenly became red again. Her stomach hurt and she was rolling. She drank bitter medicine to relieve it. How dare she disobey my arrangement?"

Xue Yi looked at Huang Yi and replied seriously: "Good medicine is bitter, no need to explain. Sister Huang Yi, tell me, what did you find this time?"

Huang Yi nodded slightly and said: "Following the words of the eldest sister, my sister Chiyi and I went to the Yao Valley on the outskirts of Beijing to find the uncle Qi. I presented the golden needle to him and told him that it was stolen by the sword and was stolen by me. Tianyi Sect stopped me. The rule of Tianyi Sect is retaliation. Uncle Qi helped me get into Taiyuan Hospital. Tianyi Sect will not refuse to pay for the remuneration that should be given. "

"When Uncle Qi heard this, he laughed so much that his beard stood up. He didn't take my golden needle. He just said that if he lost it, it was lost. It was his own business and had nothing to do with Tianyimen. The golden needle can be stopped by Tianyimen , is the ability of Tianyi Sect, if you give it to him again, it will be retaliation and it will break the rules, Qi Shennong will not do such a thing."

"I thanked him first. After that, I said to him, my master once discussed pharmacology with Uncle Qi. We have a close friendship with him and helped him cultivate rare medicinal plants. Master once said to my eldest sister Xue Yi, Qi Many of the medical principles of medicinal herbs in Shennong Medicine Valley were tried out by me and carefully tested for him. Qi Shennong can also be regarded as my half master. Qi Shennong told my master that if I have anything to ask him If you help me, he will definitely not push back or ask for favors."

"It's just that my master didn't have time to tell me this, and when I left, my eldest sister didn't have time to tell me this. So when I came to ask Uncle Qi, I didn't know he had made this promise. But Uncle Qi himself should know this. My eldest sister asked me to tell Uncle Qi that if he really didn't want to break the rules, then Uncle Qi shouldn't have taken my golden needle and bullied me into not knowing the past. "

"When Qi Shennong heard what I said, the hand stroking his beard froze. After a long pause, Fang smiled bitterly and said, your eldest sister, the sect leader, is really tricky. On the surface, she is here to return the golden needle to him. In fact, I came here to deliberately trick him and then deliberately squeeze him. Then he sighed and continued, well, he was indeed not kind enough last time and asked me what I wanted to ask him this time. "

Chiyi interjected: "This Uncle Qi, I think he is a little younger than Lao Che. Why do everyone in Yaogu, young and old, call him uncle?"

Xue Yi said lightly: "Uncle is either an honorific or his name. In fact, this man has a cheerful personality and only loves two things in his life, practicing kung fu and growing plants. I heard that he was an orphan when he was a child, with no name and no surname. Later he made his way around the world. He gave himself such a name, and he doesn’t like others to call him by his nickname Qi Shennong, but he likes others to call him by his direct name.”

Chiyi couldn't help but laugh and said: "Hey...if my name is Fairy, then I also like others to call me by my name directly, and don't call me nicknames."

Ziyi pushed her and said, "You are stupid. What's wrong with the name Chiyi? Fairies sound unpleasant when they are called. Which parent would give their child such a name? Don't be stupid."

Chi Yi was suddenly startled, not knowing what he thought of.The sisters seemed to have thought of something, and they all kept silent, unwilling to touch her heart.

Xueyi looked at her and said softly: "Sister Chiyi, names are for others to call. No matter what they are called, if the person calling the name is attentive and the person being called is happy, then it is a good name. Uncle Qi He has no father or mother, but he can still give himself such a happy name, which shows that he is open-minded and does not dwell on his origins. You are a member of the Tianyi Sect, and I gave your name to you. When your sisters call you, what do you think? Are you happy?"

Chiyi showed his face and said, "Of course I'm happy, I like this name."

Xue Yi continued: "When I was five years old, I was running in the countryside outside the courtyard. Suddenly I heard a baby crying. I followed the sound and saw you wrapped in a red cloth, lying on the ground. I took you back. When we got to the small courtyard, Master said that you were just born a few days ago. I am afraid that God sent you to be my sister. When you asked me what I should call you, I opened my mouth and called you Chiyi. But when you heard me calling you, you were so slow. He slowly stopped crying and his little mouth turned up, as if he was smiling."

The sisters all listened with bated breath, and Chiyi's eyes gradually became moist.

Xueyi stopped, thought for a while, and then said: "Red as fire, fragrant clothes and shadows on the temples. Aren't they more lively and moving than some fairies? In this world, men without parents can still stand upright, and women without parents can also Ridiculously arrogant. Sister Chiyi, you have been with Master for ten years. Apart from me, you have been with Master the longest. You have always been kind-hearted, and don’t forget Master’s teachings and hurt yourself in vain.”

Chi Yi lowered his head and said, "What the eldest sister said is true, Chi Yi has remembered it."

Xue Yi turned to Huang Yi and said, "Sister Huang Yi, please continue."

Huang Yi nodded and said: "I asked Uncle Qi seriously, did he know long ago that the person who came to steal the golden needle was Nu Jian, so he deliberately neglected to let her steal the golden needle? Uncle Qi nodded yes. I asked him again, Do you also know that Su Jian stole the golden needle in order to meet the eldest sister? Uncle Qi continued to say yes. So I said that Su Jian has a biological sister with the same father. The eldest sister said that she was hiding in the palace. Let me ask. Uncle Qi, please be kind and tell me the real news this time." "He was shocked and couldn't help but ask me how I knew about this. So I told him that I came to inquire about the case. .Uncle Qi was very confused and asked, how can we know that the sister is hiding in the palace? Who did the eldest sister hear from? I said, the eldest sister originally guessed, but Uncle Qi’s reaction proved that The eldest sister guessed it right, so she naturally listened to what Uncle Qi said."

"Uncle Qi smiled bitterly, and finally stopped hiding it and told all the news he knew. It turned out that more than 20 years ago, after hearing that Emperor Zhong succeeded to the throne, Uncle Qi wanted to use ancient methods to extend the life of the Holy Emperor. . That year, a Japanese ginseng customer who had been favored by the Holy Emperor presented a thousand-year-old ginseng with only five ounces. It was said that it could bring the dead back to life. But it was a pity that destiny could not be violated. The Holy Emperor drank the ginseng juice and was still able to control the dragon. Honorable guest. However, the thousand-year-old ginseng is really rare. At that time, there was a ginseng root weighing about six cents left. It is said that it was secretly kept by the doctor of the imperial hospital who presented the ginseng juice. Another theory is that it was given to him by someone in the palace. Stolen."

"In the first two years of Emperor Zhong's reign, the queen and the eldest princess also searched for it, but the doctors at Natai Hospital swore to God that they would never dare to hide it secretly. When he gave the Holy Emperor ginseng juice, he would The ginseng was placed in a small medicine bag, handed to the attendant maid, and placed beside the Holy Emperor's pillow. Emperor Zhong was accompanying the Holy Emperor's bed at that time and saw it with his own eyes. If the medicine bag was gone, only It could be that someone in the palace took it privately. However, everyone in the palace also swore to heaven and earth that they would never dare to take it. Later, the loyal emperor said that he would not pursue it anymore, so the matter was dropped. "

"Uncle Qi was very tempted. For this rumor, he took great risks and searched everywhere in the imperial hospital and the palace, but found nothing. However, he heard a different rumor: that the six coins were heavy The ginseng beard was indeed stolen by a female official in the palace. The female official had an affair with Emperor Zhong's son and gave the medicine bag to the prince as a token of love. But the prince was a heartless man, and the female official In despair, he hanged himself."

"Heartless man? Another heartless man appears?" Xue Yi murmured thoughtfully.

Huang Yi said: "Yes, this rumor sounds completely unreliable. The loyal emperor had five sons, and the queen only gave birth to one. Before he could be canonized as a prince, the queen and the eldest princess messed up the government, and even his own son was killed. And he was poisoned to death. After Emperor Xuan's palace changed, Emperor Rui sealed all the other four nephews away from home within a month after he ascended the throne."

"I heard that it takes five days to walk to the prince's fiefdom closest to the capital. Moreover, all of the four nephews have already married wives. The only one who has not been married is the eldest son, the rumored one. Which prince will he be...well, if he is the eldest son of the loyal emperor, could it be that the death of the female official was not to betray her heart, but to die for her love?"

Xue Yi looked solemn, shook his head and did not answer.

Huang Yi continued: "Uncle Qi spent a long time and carefully inquired about the whereabouts of the female officer, but the rumors were messy. In short, they had nothing to do with the whereabouts of the six-dollar ginseng beard. Some people rumored that the female officer did not die during the palace coup and escaped. She left the palace and became a nun. Some people also said that not only did she become a nun, she also fell in love with the prince and actually gave birth to a daughter. Then, the rumors came back again, and they still said that the prince was betrayed and the nun hanged herself. Dead. This illegitimate daughter managed to live an illegitimate life. Now that she has grown up, she is hiding in the palace, waiting for the opportunity to avenge her mother."

Zi Yi was puzzled and asked: "Sister Huang Yi, these rumors don't make sense. The betrayed prince is not in the palace. If this daughter wants revenge, she should go to the prince's fiefdom outside to find the betrayed prince. Prince father, why do you want to hide in the palace?"

Huang Yi said: "How else can I say that the rumors are unreliable? However, the eldest sister is really good at calculating. I deceived Uncle Qi first. He has already admitted that he knows that the sword-wielding sister is hiding in the palace. Naturally, that rumor What is said in the book about the betrayal of the prince is definitely not correct and there is no need to pay any attention to it. Uncle Qi told me that he had always suspected that the remaining six coins of ginseng and whiskers from that year were indeed taken privately by the female officer, but he had an affair with the female officer. , should not be a prince, but a minister. The truth that Uncle Qi guessed is: there was a heartless Beijing official who killed the female official with whom he was deeply in love, so the illegitimate daughter who stayed behind returned to the capital to take revenge. "

"However, in the following years, Uncle Qi continued to search for information about the officials in the capital, but no one could get it right. The whereabouts of the six-coen ginseng beard became a mystery and became a concern for Uncle Qi. Until last autumn. Suddenly, a wandering monk came to Yaogu and asked him about the six-coin ginseng. They put their information together. The monk said that he had guessed the whereabouts of the ginseng. "

"Again, the disgusting monk?" Brown Yi yelled.

Lao Che looked at Xue Yi, who remained calm.

Huang Yi nodded and said: "Uncle Qi said, the monk calls himself Dharma name Yanji. He is already very old, but he has a noble temperament and a strong spirit. When talking, he seems to be very familiar with the affairs in the palace. The monk listened to Qi The uncle checked the rumors and said that it was correct. The female official was originally an attendant of the Holy Emperor. The Holy Emperor was still young when he died, smart and cute. The loyal emperor had no daughter and loved her very much. Back then, Those six coins of ginseng must have been stolen by the female officer."

"After Emperor Zhong came to the throne, this female official was assigned to serve the queen. She was also loved by the eldest princess, the daughter of the Holy Emperor, and was very popular in the court. Emperor Zhong was cowardly. Although the queen and eldest princess were good at taking power, they were not really interested in political affairs. I don’t know much about it, but this female official takes care of it. She is familiar with the affairs of the government, and can also deal with the ministers. Although she is a female generation, in the court, even the important officials in the capital regard her very highly, and she is very popular for a while. , there are countless suitors.”

"But this female official doesn't seem to have a special affection for anyone. She hides deep in the palace and never has any private interactions with any man except for managing politics. Not to mention having an affair with the prince, she even treats the officials. They have things to talk about and rarely say anything. As she gets older, the queen and the eldest princess have no intention of proposing a marriage for her. They only want the loyal emperor to follow the example of the previous dynasty and give up the throne to them. "

"On the day of the Emperor Xuan's Palace Incident, rivers of blood flowed in the palace, and countless people died. It was said that this female official was also killed, but no one confirmed that she had seen her body. It is also possible that she escaped at that time, She was not involved in the poisoning and killing, and Emperor Xuan did not have to kill her. If she was married by some official after escaping, gave birth to a daughter and then died, and this daughter now wants revenge, then As a woman, if you want to investigate the official affairs in the capital, entering the palace is definitely the best way."

"Uncle Qi asked the monk who was disgusted with the abnormality. It was not Emperor Xuan who killed the female official. Why did he have to go to the palace to take revenge? The monk said that he knew a secret. More than 20 years ago, there were two brothers from the same clan who served as capital officials in the same dynasty. Official. The younger brother was an upright person and only married one wife. The elder brother was more affectionate and took a wife with six concubines. It is said that he also had an outside wife. At that time, Emperor Xuan's new policy had not been long ago, and he was about to make every effort to govern, but because of his younger brother's strong temper, , spoke openly to the court, which angered Emperor Xuan, and the two brothers were demoted together and sent elsewhere, without real power, only enjoying wealth."

"Those two brothers are actually the grandnephews of the Holy Emperor. After the Holy Emperor passed away, although the Holy Emperor who took over the throne was open to his mother's family members, it is impossible to say that he had no scruples at all. These two My brothers have a good official reputation and are well-established in the capital. Emperor Zhong and Emperor Rui may still be able to endure it, but how can the iron-blooded Emperor Xuan who once had a palace coup endure it? Naturally, they found an excuse to drive away Sheng Xin."
