Chapter 45: Killing Hai Rui, strange prayer to the immortal? In the study room of Yan Mansion. "Dad, His Majesty has come out of seclusion!" After receiving the news, Yan Shifan rushed in immediately. Yan Song, who was reading a book, raised his eyelids, then lowered his head silently and continued reading. "Hai Rui has gone on a killing spree in the southeast. We just need to continue investigating and we will find Xu Jie." "When the time comes, we will make a concerted effort in the court and achieve our goal in one fell swoop. The Qingliu clan will be completely eliminated!" "But at this moment, the emperor has come out of confinement," Yan Shifan said with a worried look on his face, "Dad, do you think the emperor will intervene?" "Yes." Yan Song replied with certainty. "This!" Hearing his father say so confidently that the emperor would intervene, Yan Shifan was stunned at first, and then suddenly became anxious and was about to speak, but was interrupted by Yan Song again, "Shifan!" "Just do our duty." Yan Song said, raising his head, an inexplicable color flashing in the depths of his turbid eyes.
"As the Emperor said, clouds are in the sky and water is in the bottle." "In the Ming Dynasty, no one is a traitor. Everyone works for the court and is loyal to the emperor." "We are not here to defeat anyone." "If there is a problem with the Southeast, then we will investigate it thoroughly. If there is no problem, we should not be afraid of investigation." Hearing this, Yan Shifan suddenly understood what his father meant. I suddenly realized, yes, now we are the righteous side, and our Yan family is the loyal ministers. People like Xu Jie are the real treacherous villains. They colluded with the gentry and powerful families, annexed land, opened private shipping, and harmed the world. Now that we have evidence, we must investigate! Even if the emperor tries to balance all parties and will certainly intervene, that is something Qingliu should worry about. If that little bit of soil could cover the shit, no one would say anything. But now it’s not covered and someone has dug it out, don’t blame us for raising the sword of justice and starting the trial! "Let the people in the southeast protect Hai Rui." Yan Song, who was flipping through a book with his head down, spoke again. "Protect Hai Rui?" Hearing about protecting Hai Rui, Yan Shifan was stunned and shocked. He said, "Dad, are you saying that Qingliu will take action against Hai Rui and then use this to cover up the matter?" "That doesn't make sense. If Your Majesty intervenes, then the situation in the southeast will naturally be settled. With us in Hai Rui, how could that be possible..." "Hai Rui is an uncontrollable double-edged sword. No one can control him. Someone will definitely attack him. Do you understand?" Before Yan Shifan could finish his words, he saw his father suddenly look up and yell at him. "Roar!" It was as if a vicious tiger was roaring invisibly, ready to bite someone, causing his heart to tremble violently. Looking at the power displayed by his father and thinking of the sword that could not be controlled by anyone, Yan Shifan suddenly had an idea. He understood, Hai Rui was going to die! Once Your Majesty takes action, it will definitely balance all parties. Now only Your Majesty can calm the situation down. Qingliu knew this clearly, so even if they had reasons to kill Hai Rui, they would not kill him. They would just wait for His Majesty's judgment. At this time, if Hai Rui died, then there would be no doubt that the Qingliu faction would be the most motivated.
Since we want to accomplish our goal in one go, then we should either not do it, or do it once and for all, leaving Qingliu with no room for maneuver! Southeast? No matter how chaotic it is, it will not affect the Yan family. Once Hai Rui dies, there will be no room for maneuver. Even if Your Majesty wants to favor the upright, there is no reason to do so. "I understand, son." Yan Shifan bowed respectfully to Yan Song, then turned around and walked away. As soon as he went out, he saw his two followers, Luo Longwen and Yan Maoqing, already waiting at the door. "Send a pigeon to the southeast to send a letter," Yan Shifan said in a low voice, with a cold light flashing in his eyes, "Kill Hai Rui!" Luo Longwen, who was an adviser to Yan Shifan, was stunned for a moment, but after a little thought he understood, nodded, and strode away. In an instant, both the Qingliu and the Yan party changed their plans because the emperor came out of seclusion for "Xuanxiu". Originally, the Qingliu planned to break Hai Rui's double-edged sword which was out of control and controlled by the Yan Party and was slashing towards them. But in an instant, the situation was reversed and the Yan Party wanted to break the sword themselves. Because they knew clearly that this double-edged sword was beyond the control of anyone, and if the emperor took action, everything would be wiped out. What has been decided must be accomplished before the emperor takes action! Jiajing was naturally unaware of the undercurrents between the Yan Party and the Qingliu Party. At this time, he had already arrived outside the Xuanpu Palace. "No need." Raising his hand to stop Lu Fang from shouting, Jiajing smiled and walked into the door with his hands behind his back. "The Imperial Master refused to arrange for other Taoist children, leaving only the two personal female Taoist children sent by Elder Yan to serve by his side." Seeing that Jiajing noticed that no other Taoists had gone to Xuanpu Palace, Lu Fang explained immediately without waiting for any questions. "This is a 'Prayer to the Immortal' that I realized while practicing in the mountains. Eunuch Huang recites it every day, which helps to calm the mind and soothe the spirit." Just as he was about to enter the main hall, he heard the clear but serious voice of a young girl coming from inside the hall. "Heh." Hearing Qingfeng's voice, Jiajing chuckled and stopped at the door. He did not go in, but just listened quietly with his hands behind his back. He smiled at Lu Fang and said, "Huang Jin is also seeking fortune?" "The master is blessed with great fortune, and we servants are already the most honored ones. Huang Jin is a little greedy." Lu Fang laughed softly. At this time, voices were heard again in the hall. "Please give me some instructions, Imperial Master." In the main hall, Huang Jin sat cross-legged with a tense face, looking seriously at the young imperial teacher in front of him who was wearing a Taoist robe and holding a whisk in her hand. Qingfeng was wearing a navy blue Taoist robe and had her hair tied into a bun with a wooden hairpin. Her fair and cute oval face looked very serious. Behind her, two twelve-year-old female Taoist children, also wearing navy blue Taoist robes, stood obediently with their hands hanging down. "Ahem!" Qingfeng coughed lightly, then said with a serious face, "I'll read a sentence, and you follow me." After saying this, without waiting for Huang Jin to answer, he spoke directly, "As long as your heart is sincere, it will work. A sincere heart can deeply touch the universe." "As long as your heart is sincere, it will work... huh?" Huang Jin had just finished reading when a question mark appeared in his head. Hmm, why does this prayer feel weird? Although he was doubtful, Huang Jin still chanted: "As long as your heart is sincere, it will work..." But I still secretly doubt in my heart, does this prayer really work? "The spiritual charm is lingering, floating and floating. The heart of Tao follows the wind, swaying beside the paradise on earth." Qingfeng continued to recite seriously. Seeing her serious and pious expression, Huang Jin could only follow her and chant, "The spiritual rhythm is lingering, floating and floating..." Qingfeng: "The mountains and rivers respond, chirping and chirping. The Taoist practitioners practice, and their minds are as clear as a mirror."
Huang Jin: "The mountains and rivers responded, roaring and roaring..." Qingfeng: "If you ask for something, it will be answered. If you follow the Tao, you will be strong if you have no desires and soft if you do nothing." Huang Jin: "I will respond to your requests, respond, respond..." …… Qingfeng: "The light shines everywhere, guiding those who are lost and looking back. The heart is like still water and does not startle." Huang Jin: "The light shines everywhere, shining, shining..." In the hall, the clear and serious voice of a young girl was heard, followed by Huang Jin's voice. "Ha!" After listening to it once, Jiajing shook his head and chuckled. He didn't know what to say for a moment. Lu Fang also shook his head slightly and said, "Master, this should be a nursery rhyme, which is more appropriate." Jiajing did not respond and walked into the hall. Lu Fang also shouted loudly at the first moment, and the sound in the hall suddenly stopped. "The mountains and rivers are responding, chirping... woo?" Seeing Jiajing coming in, Qingfeng blinked, "Your Majesty?" "I am Huang Jin, a servant, and I pay my respects to His Majesty the Master." Huang Jin immediately climbed up from the mat and knelt down. "Qingfeng greets His Majesty." Qingfeng and the two little Taoist boys, who had come to their senses, immediately followed suit and saluted. "Stand up." Jiajing came to the front of the hall, under the Three Pure Ones, took the incense burned by Lu Fang, bowed, and inserted it into the incense burner. Then he turned and looked at Qingfeng. At this time, Lu Fang waved his hand, signaling Huang Jin to take the two little Taoist boys away. "Congratulations, Your Majesty, on coming out of seclusion." Qingfeng bowed respectfully. "The whisk is nice," Jiajing pointed at the whisk she held on her arm, "I have something I don't understand, so I came to ask the Imperial Master for help." "Your Majesty, please give me your instructions. Qingfeng will tell you everything I know." Qingfeng's big eyes, clear and bright, like gems that have not been polluted by the world, suddenly became serious. As the imperial teacher, am I finally going to share the worries for His Majesty? Thinking of the people's misunderstanding of him, saying that he was spreading rumors and harming the country, Qingfeng frowned and secretly exerted himself in his heart. We must advise Your Majesty more often to be kind to the people and the officials, so that they can all see that they are not bringing harm to the country. "..." (End of this chapter)
