Chapter 91 Hai Rui: Everyone in the world is wrong! I, Hai Rui, will never allow a generation of Immortal Emperor to have even the slightest stain! Yuxi Palace, side hall. "Master, Hai Rui is here." Lu Fang said respectfully to Jiajing in the abode. "Xuan." Upon hearing this, Jiajing, who was meditating with his eyes closed, did not open his eyes, but continued to practice his skills. Although his cultivation level was at the fifth level of Qi training, it was impossible for him to have any improvement in his realm in a short period of time, but he still did not slack off and continued to practice diligently every day. "Yes," Lu Fang bowed, turned around and came to the door, and first said to Huang Jin: "Go to Xuanpu Palace and serve." "Yes." Huang Jin nodded to Lu Fang, then turned and disappeared into the rain. "Master Hai?" After Huang Jin left, Lu Fang looked Hai Rui up and down, and said in a somewhat cold tone, "Come with us." After saying that, he turned around and walked towards the side hall. He could speak softly and pretend to be nice to the Yan Party and the Qingliu Party, but he didn't even want to pretend to be nice to Hai Rui. As for the reason, it was naturally Hai Rui's last memorial. Although the master was magnanimous and not only did not blame Hai Rui, but also wanted to use him, but as a servant, he could not stand such a person. People like Hai Rui are destined to be liked by few people.
Hai Rui naturally didn't care about Lu Fang's indifference. He followed her all the way to the side hall, and then he saw the Jingshe on the Bagua Daotai in the middle, and Jiajing sitting inside. When Hai Rui saw the emperor for the first time, he had complicated feelings. Before this, he had many dissatisfactions and misunderstandings about the emperor. However, after he returned to Beijing, came into contact with the elite, and learned some things in the capital, he finally understood these misunderstandings. My vision was too narrow. No matter what mistakes this emperor had made before, at least he was starting to improve. Moreover, not only that, there was also a huge cloud of doubt rising in his heart that took a long time to dissipate. That is, did the emperor succeed in his mysterious cultivation? Yes, the matter of submitting the memorial to the emperor has always been an unsolved mystery in his mind. This time, perhaps he could take this opportunity to resolve the doubts in his heart. "Master, Hai Rui is here." Lu Fang bowed and said. At this time, Hai Rui finally stepped forward, knelt down and saluted, saying, "Your Majesty, I am Hai Rui, here to see you." Lu Fang, who was standing nearby, looked at Hai Rui's straight back with a look of disdain in her eyes. "Huh." After letting out a light breath, Jiajing opened his eyes and looked at Hai Rui who was kneeling on the ground. His expression relaxed slightly and he said, "Get up, Lu Fang, and move a seat for him." "Yes," Lu Fang turned around and brought a small stool, placed it behind Hai Rui, and then stood quietly by the side. "Thank you, Your Majesty." After thanking him, Hai Rui carefully sat down on the stool, his back still straight. "Do you know why I called you here this time?" Jiajing looked at Hai Rui. "I don't know. Your Majesty, please tell me." Hai Rui lowered his head, looking obedient. "You are a smart man," Jiajing smiled, raised his finger and pointed at Hai Rui, and then said, "But you are too rigid. But you must understand the principle that being too rigid will lead to failure." "I won't say more here..." Has the Emperor noticed me a long time ago... Hai Rui lowered his head, thinking secretly in his heart, and whispered "thank you" but did not raise his head. He could hear the Emperor's words and there was more to say.
"Do you know the significance of stationing troops to promote agriculture?" "Your Majesty," Hai Rui took a deep breath, then raised his head and said seriously, "If the national policy of stationing troops to promote agriculture is implemented, not only will the border be stable, but it will also greatly reduce fiscal consumption." "After that, we will continue to recruit soldiers internally to fight against the Japanese invaders on the southeast coast and suppress some rebellions within the Ming Dynasty." "The south and the north, or even the entire territory of Ming, can all be stable. If there is any national policy that needs to be implemented..." At this point, Hai Rui's eyes lit up and he said, "It can also end the Gordian knot quickly without causing major turmoil." "If there is any unrest, it can be suppressed quickly." Having said this, Hai Rui became more and more confused. If His Majesty is really about to die, then all of this makes sense, because His Majesty is clearing the way for the successor and wants to get everything done before he leaves. If Your Majesty does not care about your reputation before and after your death, you can just cut it with a sharp knife and remove all the rotten flesh and festering sores. After the new monarch takes the throne, you only need to implement benevolent policies and wait for the wounds to heal. In this way, a brand new Ming Dynasty emerged again. This is the reason why serious illnesses require large prescriptions and chronic illnesses require heavy doses. But, Your Majesty, is the end really coming? Hai Rui couldn't help but think of the memorial again...but he quickly suppressed the restlessness in his heart. "I really didn't misjudge you," Jiajing smiled with satisfaction, and then said, "I appointed you as the governor of Datong because I want you to keep a close eye on me and not allow any mistakes." "Because I believe in you, Hai Gangfeng!" "Your Majesty, I, Hai Rui, will not let you down. As long as I am in the northern border, I will ensure that the national policy of stationing troops and promoting agriculture is safe!" Hai Rui looked serious and his tone was more solemn than ever before. But his intuition told him that the emperor had something else to say, and that this time he asked him to enter the palace, in addition to explaining matters in the northern border, there must be something else. "I have read the memorial you wrote to me." Just as Hai Rui was secretly guessing in his heart, Jiajing spoke again. But the words he said this time shocked Hai Rui greatly. He raised his head abruptly, his eyes widened, and his mouth slightly opened. "Your Majesty," Hai Rui said a word, meeting Jiajing's gaze, then took a deep breath, stood up and knelt on the ground, with his head on the floor, and said, "I dare to ask the emperor..." As he spoke, Hai Rui opened his mouth, but it was a little difficult to speak, as if something was stuck in his throat. However, he finally asked the question in his mind, saying: "May I ask Your Majesty, has the Xuan Xiu been successful?" The moment this question was asked, Hai Rui felt that the atmosphere in the hall seemed to become solemn at this moment. It's not that he was afraid, but this question, coming from Hai Gangfeng's mouth, was too, well, too unbelievable. In fact, since the day he came back from Dinghai County, he had discovered that he had changed and was no longer the same person he used to be. Of course, it refers to the theories about immortals and gods. I have changed from being dismissive and deliberately avoiding them in the beginning to reading ancient books, history books, and Buddhist and Taoist texts in recent days. Just like in his joke with Wang Yongji today, he began to mention words like "immortals" and "destiny". In the past, I would never say this even when joking with friends. Maybe this may seem like nothing to others, but only he himself knows that this is not normal for him. "Swish, swish, swish." The sky gradually darkened, but the rain did not stop. Hai Rui walked to the outside of Yuxi Palace alone, holding an umbrella in a daze. "Whoosh!" Suddenly at this moment, a gust of wind, carrying cold rain, blew towards him. Hai Rui shuddered all over and suddenly came to his senses and became sober.
"What do you think?" Jiajing's calm voice seemed to still echo in my ears. His mind couldn't help but emerge with the scene he had just experienced in the side hall of Yuxi Palace, which was enough to make him unforgettable for the rest of his life. A large transparent hand just grabbed him and lifted him up, then with a wave of its hand, a talisman flew out, turned into a stream of light, and then turned into a cloud, holding him up. It also made him experience firsthand what it means to soar into the clouds. The scenes just now not only shocked him, but also caused his "worldview" of the past few decades to collapse. "There really are fairies in this world!" Thinking this way, Hai Rui turned around and looked at the brightly lit and hazy Yuxi Palace in the rain and fog. Suddenly his body went limp and he staggered. Fortunately, the eunuch next to him was quick to support him, otherwise he would have fallen on the spot. "Master Hai, are you okay?" The young eunuch supported Hai Rui with concern and quickly held an umbrella for him. "The Emperor has truly succeeded in his mysterious cultivation!" Hai Rui paid no attention to the two young eunuchs, with only this one thought in his mind. Before, all my guesses were true! "There is no way to clear the way for the successor king. Suddenly, they stopped building the palace and spending on Xuan cultivation, and started governing the country..." "It's because the emperor no longer needs to use those mundane fake Taoist methods to deceive himself and others. He has succeeded in his mysterious cultivation and has truly embarked on a path to becoming an immortal..." "What should we do?" The two young eunuchs looked at the distraught Hai Rui, and then glanced at each other, feeling that the situation was very troublesome. Hai Rui was summoned by the master of Yuxi Palace, so they naturally did not dare to be negligent or careless in the slightest and were very careful in their words and actions. "Help him up and send him home. I will go and report to the ancestor." The older eunuch said this and turned away. "Master Hai, I will take you home." The young eunuch helped Hai Rui into the car. Fortunately, although Hai Rui was confused and bewildered at the moment, he was still able to act. "Master Hai, please sit tight. We will set off now." The young eunuch wiped the rain off his face, swung the reins and set off. “Prince Yu and Prince Jing, two dragons fighting? Qingliu and Yandang, war in the north? Ha, ha ha..." Hai Rui muttered to himself and suddenly laughed bitterly. While mumbling to himself, he looked out the back window at the West Garden which was gradually receding into the distance. The emperor did not blame him for his disrespectful memorial, but simply used some tricks, rewarded him with a pill and let him go. After taking the pill, he spat out a foul-smelling black blood, and then he felt that all the old illnesses and ailments in his body were completely eliminated. Now he is in good health, like a young man in his twenties. "Crown Prince?" Hai Rui suddenly thought of the gloom hanging over everyone's heads due to the fight for the crown prince. He took a deep breath and murmured to himself: "Wrong, all the smart people in the world, Yan Song and his son, Xu Jie and other upright people, they all guessed wrong..." "Your Majesty has succeeded in his cultivation. One pill can cure all my illnesses. How can the life span of a living immortal be compared to that of a mortal? If someone is really appointed as the crown prince, it will be a torment and torture." "A crown prince for thousands or tens of thousands of years?" Thinking of this, even Hai Rui couldn't help but look strange. At this moment, he suddenly felt that the Yan Party and the Qingliu were a little pitiful. They thought they had seen through the emperor's purpose, but in fact they were always just pawns in the emperor's hands. "If you perform well, you may become an immortal..." Suddenly, Hai Rui remembered what the emperor said to him. For a moment, even Hai Rui's heart could not help but pound. Become an immortal? Even Hai Gangfeng, whose iron will was shaken violently at this moment.
"The immortal emperor needs advice even more! If I embark on the path of immortality, I will definitely assist the emperor with all my heart to repay his kindness!" "Let this Ming Dynasty be better, let the people be better, and let all natural and man-made disasters be eliminated!" "A generation of Immortal Emperors can create an immortal Immortal Dynasty! And I, Hai Rui, will never allow him to have even the slightest stain!" "Your Majesty, to repay your kindness, Hai Rui swears that as long as I am alive, I will never allow you to make the slightest mistake!" Hai Rui clenched his fists tightly and swore secretly in his heart. That’s right, while Hai Rui was moved, what he was thinking about more, besides the common people, was Jiajing! "..."
