After I was reborn, I became Mrs. Chief Assistant

Chapter 230
Although the sun was shining outside, the doors and windows of the Hall of Mental Cultivation were still tightly closed, the room was filled with twilight, and the palace lanterns were always bright.

In the gauze tent, Emperor Ye sat cross-legged, closed his eyes and nourished his heart.

Fang Ruyi knelt in front of the dragon bed, and said cautiously: "Your Majesty, you have a clue."

Emperor Ye slowly opened his eyes, looked down at him, and asked plainly, "What eyebrows?"

Fang Ruyi lowered her head even lower: "A group of troops led by Zhou Shiwei went out to sea and really saw the fairy mountain hidden in the misty clouds. This mountain only appeared in the rain. Zhou Shiwei waited at sea for several days, and finally waited until the first Two rains. It was just that rain... The rain was too heavy, and when the clouds and rain first arrived, there were violent winds and huge waves on the sea...Zhou guards and the elite under his command all died at the bottom of the sea. Only one person remained, dying, and was later salvaged by fishermen , the man informed the fishermen of his identity, told the fishermen to return to Beijing, and reported the matter to His Majesty Bing. He also said... that the grace of God is great, and luckily he did not disgrace his life."

Emperor Ye was silent for a moment: "Where are the fishermen?"

"I was detained in the prison by the commander of the Imperial Forest Army. When I went to see him, he gave me a letter." Fang Ruyi held the letter to the top of his head with both hands. It seemed that it had been a long time. Finally, he stretched out a skinny hand and took the letter.

Fang Ruyi said: "The fishermen said that the reason why the letter is still intact is because the guards wrapped a waterproof tarpaulin outside the letter, so it has not been soaked by sea water."

Emperor Ye did not answer, and slowly unwrapped the oilcloth wrapped in the letter, and then opened the letter with the words "Experience at Sea" written on the cover, and studied it word by word under the dim light.

"... I searched for more than a month on the sea, but found nothing. I only saw the sky is magnificent, the island is clear and the sand is white, and when the sun is sunny, the fish leap over the water, and the fisherman ignores the fish; If the voice is not incessant, it will make us miss the capital, but if the matter of the Shang Dynasty has not been completed, we will feel ashamed, but we will try our best to search for it, so as not to make us look up..."

"Suddenly one day, the sky is about to rain, and as far as the eye can see, there are many tall buildings and immortal clouds..."

The next thing is very simple. Although the guards saw the fairy mountain on the sea, but because the fishermen warned them not to go to sea in rainy weather, they could only look at the fairy mountain and sigh.After discussing with each other, everyone originally planned to wait for the rain to stop before going out to sea by boat, but they didn't expect that after the clouds and rain first cleared, Xianshan gradually disappeared, as if it was just a dream.

If they had never seen such a spectacle, everyone might have returned to Beijing in such a disheartened manner, but after having seen it, they all wanted to find out, whether it was to explore the Dao of Longevity or to be able to increase their ranks.

So they prepared enough food for half a month, and rowed out to sea on a certain day, just waiting for the rain to come and see Xianshan again.

The letter stays in "The wind and waves come in a short time, its majesty, I have only seen it in my life. It is expected that this long journey will stop here. Our lives are in danger, but I hope that those who come later will pick up this letter and find the fairy trail... ..."

What happened later is not recorded. Instead, a fisherman who traveled thousands of miles from the sea to Kyoto dictated it to the eunuch in Kyoto who was closest to the political power center of the dynasty, so that the emperor heard about it.

The person in the gauze tent did not speak for a long time, Fang Ruyi raised her eyes quietly, trying to see his expression clearly, but unfortunately to no avail.He had no choice but to say softly: "The minister has already lifted the fisherman out of the prison, and now he is waiting outside."

Emperor Ye put down the letter and opened the gauze curtain, Fang Ruyi was finally able to look up and see him clearly: a loose Taoist robe was loosely worn on him, his hair like withered grass was tied casually with a jade hairpin, and his expression was cloudy and indistinguishable.

He said, "Bring people in."

Fang Ruyi replied yes, and turned her head to bring the fishermen who had been cleaned once into the Hall of Mental Cultivation.

According to his reminder, as soon as the fisherman entered the Hall of Mental Cultivation, he knelt down with a "plop", his forehead fell heavily on the beige velvet carpet covered with chrysanthemums, making a heavy muffled sound and trembling. Authentic: "The grassroots kowtow to the emperor, long live the emperor... long live long live."

Emperor Ye raised his hand to make him stand up, and asked again: "You came to the capital from Meihai just to present this thing to the palace?"

The fisherman's voice trembled: "Caomin dare not lie to the emperor."

"How was the situation that day, please tell me carefully."

The fisherman then told him everything that happened back then.Because he was self-certified before, he had already told the guards in the sky prison, and Fang Ruyi, this is the third time he has said this set of arguments, which can be said to be very familiar and fluent.

After hearing his words, Emperor Ye suddenly turned his head and asked Fang Ruyi: "I remember, Meihai is the place where Mazu got her way?"

The fishermen didn't know the rules, and they heard that the sage knew about Mazu, so they took the lead and talked eloquently: "It's also the hometown of Mazu! We in Meihai are blessed by Mazu. For many years, we have been doing business and fishing, and this sea has never..."

"Bold!" Fang Ruyi interrupted him, gave her a hard look, and said respectfully to Emperor Ye, "The common people are ignorant, they don't know the rules, and they offended the emperor."

Emperor Ye waved his hand: "It's okay, let him continue." He looked at the fisherman with a pleasing expression, and asked in a warm voice: "Never what? Continue."

The previous words were interrupted by Fang Ruyi, and the fisherman once again realized where he was. He lost his pride and became trembling again: "There has never been a shipwreck. People in the village say that almost A lord is in distress at sea, it is..."

This time he learned the lesson and didn't continue to talk, but put it away in due course.

However, Emperor Ye refused to let him take it. He asked, "What is it? Tell me, I won't blame you."

The fisherman looked up at him.

It was an offense to Emperor Ye for a lowly commoner to face Tian Yan, but just when Fang Ruyi wanted to reprimand him again, Emperor Ye glanced at him lightly, the meaning of warning was self-evident.

Fang Ruyi then lowered his head, not daring to make any further moves.

For a fisherman who was born and lived in Meihai since childhood, and will only die in Meihai in the future if there is no accident, the capital, the imperial palace, eunuchs, and emperors are all so far away from him.However, when he actually got here, he didn't have an unreal feeling of being light and light, as if he was stepping on a cloud.

He walked through the streets of Kyoto, went to the imperial palace, met the chief servant in this imperial palace, and met the emperor. If he had to let him feel it, he would only feel disappointed.

How is Kyoto?How is the palace?But it's all dust.How about eunuchs?How is the emperor?They are all mortal bodies, and when they get old in the future, they will be dust among dust.

Realizing this, he became more courageous, spoke clearly and mysteriously, and said, "God's wrath."
