Hidden Dragon in Qing Dynasty

Since ancient times, the highest grade of incense had been produced in the country of Annan. This kind of precious handicraft was not used for playing around in ancient times, but was directly used to burn.

Man Shun felt his heart ache, with just that one piece of Annan Water the size of an egg, it had cost him 350 taels of silver. This was even from his master, if it was sold at a market price of less than 600 taels of silver, the seller probably wouldn't even let him take a look.

When did Hairy # 2 become a bandit, he could even reveal the secrets that he had been hiding. However, right now, in front of the His Majesty, Man Shun could only say that he was not going to burn up.

The true Xuan De furnace and three spoonfuls of Agarwood Powder were piled up like a small mountain. The silver threads were burned red and then thrown into the Agarwood Powder. Soon, a strange fragrance started to fill the air.

When the Agarwood Powder was only a third of its original value, the firepower had already started to rise. The market price of 600 taels of silver was placed on top of the Agarwood Restaurant, and instantly, an orchid-like fragrance filled the bathroom. Those English maids had never smelled such a strange fragrance before, so they were all drunk.

Agarwood already had the effect of calming the mind. In fact, the incense of China was first produced to complement the ancient Chinese practice. Whether it was Confucianism, Taoism, or Buddhist meditation, a good incense was naturally able to calm people's restless souls.

It seemed that the Doctor of Psychology had never thought that in the distant east, there would be a type of psychological placebo with no side effects. This kind of smoke, if paired with a good psychiatrist, would definitely have twice the results with half the work.

However, the prerequisite for this was that the patient must have money. To burn six hundred taels of silver of agarwood at a time was not something an ordinary person could bear.

Zai Chun's expression gradually relaxed. Hairy # 2 found a clean towel for himself and spread it on the side of the bath. Then, he carelessly laid down beside Zai Chun.

At the moment, Zai Chun's body was floating in the water, with his head and shoulders leaning on the marble platform, he closed his eyes to enjoy the heat and the unique fragrance of the hot spring.

Hairy # 2 and Tongzhi were sitting in the opposite direction, with his legs on the towel and his arms on the bathtub steps. They sat side by side, quietly waiting.

, Xiao Sixi and the others were all so jealous that they were going crazy. Hairy # 2 was obviously a traitor, he was obviously a spy sent by Xiao Letian to the Forbidden City.

"His Majesty must be putting on an act, that's right, His Majesty doesn't want to arouse Scoundrel's suspicions, Master is truly wise!"

The eunuchs could only use these words to comfort themselves.

After staying silent for more than 20 minutes, Er Mao suddenly opened his mouth and asked, "Have a drink?"

Zai Chun slowly opened his eyes. "Okay, then let's drink. I remember the last time we were at the Fu Sang Hot Spring, the milky white turbid wine tasted very good."

"No problem, I've already prepared it!"

Er Mao snapped his fingers, and soon a maid came in with a huge wooden tray with a jug of Japanese wine and two cups on it.

The wooden tray was placed directly on the surface of the water. The rippling pool water carried the wooden tray as it moved across the water. The steam instantly gave off the fragrance of rice wine.

A mouthful of turbid wine entered his throat, and the strong scent of rice and wine filled his mouth. Zai Chun let out a short and comfortable sigh of relief. While speaking, Tongzhi actually poured a cup for Er Mao.

After three cups of tea, the two people's cheeks gradually turned red. Hairy # 2 found an opportunity to ask, "How did it feel to kill someone for the first time?"

The hearts of the surrounding people thumped. They were so scared that they nearly passed out. They thought to themselves, "Er Mao, have you gone mad?" Everyone was avoiding this question, so why did you mention it?

But he never would have thought that Tongzhi did not get angry, and instead said calmly, "A bit … A little flustered, start... At first I was a little scared... "What's left is the atmosphere!"

The sealed heart gate had finally been opened a crack by Er Mao, and it seemed that Zai Chun subconsciously considered Er Mao as a friend, because after all, this was the first true friend of his life.

In the dark days of the Forbidden City, the people around him were either wolves that were eyeing him like tigers, or a group of mighty servants. Only Hairy # 2 regarded him as a person, a person who possessed all the emotions of a human, and not the Son of Heaven.

This was a feeling that Tongzhi had never experienced before, and it was precisely this unique experience that allowed him and Hairy # 2 to become incomparably close to each other.

Since the chatterbox had already been opened, it was very difficult to close it again. Tongzhi said in a low voice, "Everyone except Er Mao, get out!"

"Your Majesty …" Xiao Sixi and the others were so shocked that they wanted to say something, but they only saw the emperor waving his hands resolutely.

No one dared to go against the emperor's decree, especially the current Emperor Tongzhi, who, through today's massacre, had intimidated all of his subordinates. He was a powerful monarch, and any servant who had seen that bloody scene would have an intense fear of the emperor.

Killing was also an effective way to ensure the loyalty of their subordinates. Among all the followers of the Tongzhi Emperor who had visited Europa, other than Hairy # 2, not a single person dared to betray them in their entire lives.

The beautiful maidservants walked out of the bathing pool, wrapped in wet towels. Soon, only the emperor and Hairy # 2 were left.

"Do you remember the past? I was being naughty. I snuck onto the roof of the Palace, and it was you who sneaked me a ladder … You and I are lying side by side on the glazed roof tiles, looking at the stars in the sky.

"That's right. At that time, His Majesty kept asking me what the outside world looked like. I said that the outside world was very dark and scary, but you wouldn't believe it …"

"Hehe …" "I believe it now. After coming out for a few years, I finally understand what you said. The sky outside is dark, the ground is dark, and the hearts of people are also dark …"

Hairy # 2 poured Zai Chun a glass of wine and said, "Do you regret it? If you didn't ask me to contact Xiao Letian back then and didn't let us think of a way to bring you out of the Forbidden City, then you would still be that clean-hearted emperor now.

"Regret?" Zai Chun sat himself up in the water and said, "Heh heh … I will never regret it. If I don't leave that prison in the four directions, I'm afraid I will never know what kind of power it is or how it works! "

"Coming out is truly learning! Otherwise, if I let those black-hearted people brainwash me for a few more years, I would really be a fool! "

"What kind of shitty saint rules the world, what shitty Lord of Virtue!?" "Nonsense, no matter how great my morals are, no one will listen to anything I say!"

"The right is in the blade and sword. If the Sovereign King does not have any cannon Gun, then he is just a fart!"
