After clearing Xiaomeng

Chapter 574 The Taoist Priest
Half a month passed in a blink of an eye, and Kangxi hadn't seen Mr. Liang, so he sent Wei Zhu to take a look.

At this time, Wei Zhu already knew that Manager Liang was gone, but he didn't know where he went. In order not to make Kangxi suspicious, he could only lie: "Your Majesty, this slave visits the manager every day. The manager is recovering well now. It just takes time.”

"That's good." Kangxi was relieved.

Wei Zhu breathed a sigh of relief, and seeing that Kangxi was fine today, he smiled and said, "Your Majesty, I heard that a famous Taoist priest has come to the Taoist temple outside the city."

"Taoist?" Kangxi seldom had contact with Taoist priests, mainly because he had more contact with shamans and monks.

"That's right, I listened to what the Eighth Prince said."

"Old eight?" Kangxi paid less attention to Yinhu recently.

Wei Zhu poured Kangxi a cup of tea: "This is the emperor, the eight blessings have never been happy, maybe a month ago, I heard about the Taoist priest, and I went to ask for a talisman, I didn't expect to find out yesterday."

"The old eight's family is happy, why haven't I heard of it?" Kangxi asked in surprise.

"Listen to the Eighth Prince. I'm afraid that something will happen to the child. Recently, there are always rumors in the capital about the year of the widow, and they say that pregnant people will suffer bloody disasters."

Kangxi couldn't help frowning when he heard the words: "Is there such a thing?"

"It's all legends, but everyone believes it."

"I'll go and have a look." Kangxi didn't really believe in such rumors, but if they spread too much, the officials would have to come forward to stop them.

"The slave will accompany the emperor."

"Ah."

Kangxi changed into casual clothes and took Wei Zhu out of the palace. The two walked on the street and saw many vendors selling all kinds of auspicious accessories and decorations.

"The common people hear that wind is rain." Wei Zhu said.

"That's right." Kangxi was also helpless.

After walking around the street, Kangxi heard the legend about the Taoist priest. After thinking about it for a while, he said to Wei Zhu, "Prepare the carriage. I want to go out of the city to see the Taoist priest."

"Whoo."

Wei Zhu's speed is very fast, and it's not for nothing that he followed Manager Liang all these years.

Kangxi got into the carriage and said to the guards next to him, "When you get there, don't make any publicity."

"Yes."

An hour later, Kangxi arrived at the Taoist temple.

Seeing that there were many people going up the mountain, Kangxi frowned and said, "Looking at this posture, I probably won't see that Taoist priest today."

"Slave, go to the mountain and ask?"

"Okay." If you can't see him, Kangxi naturally can't force him to see him.

Wei Zhu went up the mountain, and it didn't take long for him to come down.

"Your Majesty, the servant has finished asking. That Taoist priest has time, and we can meet him after we go up the mountain." Wei Zhu said out of breath.

Kangxi nodded and led the people up the mountain.

There are many Taoist people, most of whom are seeking lottery.

Kangxi looked at the Taoist boys walking back and forth, and stopped one with his hand: "Does that Taoist priest who is said to be very effective have time?"

"Yes, our master calculated that there will be a distinguished guest today, so he deliberately spared time."

When Kangxi heard this, he thought of the distinguished guest that the Taoist said, and most likely he meant himself.

"Master, this way!" Wei Zhu signaled Kangxi to come over.

Kangxi followed Wei Zhu to the place calmly, and saw the legendary Taoist priest, not to mention, he really had an aura of immortality.

The Taoist saw Kangxi coming in, and said to Xiaodaotong: "Go and close the door, you go out."

"Yes."

Kangxi sat down puzzled, and shook his fan: "Wei Zhu, step back."

"Yes."

Soon, only Kangxi and the Taoist were left in the room.

The Taoist said politely: "The emperor came here to ask about the future prince, right?"

"Exactly."

"The poor way has calculated that the future emperor is the current fourth prince." The Taoist said.

"Fourth..." Kangxi didn't have any surprises.

The Taoist didn't notice Kangxi's expression, and continued, "But the Fourth Prince's ascension to the throne was not by your imperial decree, but by usurping the throne."

"Don't go around in circles with me, just make it clear." Kangxi said.

"For the benefit of the country, Pindao had no choice but to reveal the heavenly secret. After Pindao finished speaking, he would be punished and died by the immortal family. At that time, the emperor must believe what Pindao said." The Taoist said very mysteriously. I was stunned for a moment.

The Taoist said: "The poor Taoist figured out that the emperor will pass on the throne to the eighth prince, but the fourth prince refused to accept it, and forced the palace with a manufactured weapon, and even poisoned the emperor to death. His brother who didn't agree with him died a terrible death, even his own brother, the Fourteenth Prince, would not let him go, turning the peaceful and prosperous world you created into a mess!"

"Is there such a thing?" Kangxi was stunned.

"Yes or no, the poor Taoist has finished speaking. For the prosperity of the country, the emperor, please think twice!" The Taoist vomited a mouthful of blood and died in front of Kangxi on the spot.

When Kangxi saw that the Taoist priest was really dead, his heart was in turmoil, and he couldn't speak a word for a while.

Squeak—the door opened, Dao Tong walked in, saw the master died, and said calmly: "Master should die, no matter what the reason is, you will be punished by heaven."

"I'm going back to the palace." Kangxi needed time to calm down.

Xiao Daotong sent Kangxi out of the house, and said: "Your Majesty, don't let Master die in vain."

Boom—Xiao Daotong's words dealt a heavy blow to Kangxi. He thought of the weapons made by Yinzhen. At first he thought it was beneficial to the country and the people, but now that he thought about it, he felt like he was being fooled.

"What's the matter with you, Your Majesty?" Wei Zhu asked with concern.

"Go back to the palace." Kangxi was a little tired.

"Your Majesty, Director Liang always told the servants that the fourth prince is very good. If you have any questions, you can ask the fourth prince." Wei Zhu said.

After Kangxi was reminded by Wei Zhu, he thought that what Mr. Liang said all these years seemed to be aimed at Yinzhen.

Thinking about this, Kangxi said to Wei Zhu: "After returning to the palace, you can send Liang Jiugong out of the palace to retire."

"Why?"

"As I said, don't ask why."

"Hey." Wei Zhu finally stood at the top of the eunuchs in the country at this moment!

Kangxi returned to the palace, waved everyone away, and stayed alone in the Qianqing Palace to meditate.

Wei Zhu sent Manager Liang out of the palace in a fake way, wandered outside for a while and then came back.

"Your Majesty, the slave has settled down for Director Liang."

"Hmm." Kangxi's face was gloomy, looking very frightening.

Wei Zhu stood aside with her head down, too frightened to make a sound.

Not to mention how irritable Kangxi was, it happened that the Queen Mother was not in the palace, so he didn't even have anyone to speak his mind.

"Your Majesty, if you are upset, talk to the Eighth Prince?" Wei Zhu said.

Kangxi stood up when he heard the words, and said to Wei Zhu, "Show me Yuqing Palace."

"Hey." What is the emperor going to Yuqing Palace for?
