Chapter 9: Advancement
Liu Jinwu said: "Yesterday you got drunk first. The emperor talked about the past, as well as the country's military and political affairs. Talked for a long time. The emperor said that he would crown his brother as king. Ask him to stay in Beijing to assist in state affairs. He said nothing. When it was late, he refused to stay in the palace. When he said goodbye, he said that he was a dead man. It is a blessing for brothers to get together. Don't pass after today. He wanted to go boating on the five lakes. The days of dismal life are gone. I want the emperor to govern the country with peace of mind. Don't take him for granted. He took out a stack of papers from his bosom, put it on the table, and walked out. The emperor shouted that he couldn't stop. Chase to the entrance of the temple. And I saw him plundering a few times. and disappeared into the night. Let's go back and look at the pile of paper. It's all a big golden ticket. Convert it into silver. I'm afraid it will exceed 300,000 taels. ”
Chang Sihao pondered: "The eldest grandson Xiaochi is not fighting for the throne. I don't want money either. It looks like I've seen through everything. But I don't know that this Juhao Pavilion Master. Will it continue to be done? "I remembered what happened last night. Cheng Lianan's little face emerged. Dengjue's chest was blocked. The heart said that he would ponder his affairs again. I'm going to have to go crazy. laughed and said: "The emperor cries poor. He believed it. No matter how poor you are, you are royal. He can use his silver taels. Just right. He doesn't love flowers. Let's help him spend. I haven't walked around since I arrived in Kyoto. You know what good places to go. Wait until I change my clothes. Let's have a look. ”
Liu Jinwu smiled: "When it comes to fun." I'm a living map of the capital. Let's go later. Bao Zhun Chitose is satisfied. He bowed and waited.
Chang Sihao was served by Gu Si's clothes and changed his clothes. Ate two pieces of refreshment. went out with Liu Jinwu. The two left the island and stepped on the bridge. Liu Jinwu took out a stack of silver tickets from his arms and handed them over with both hands: "Chitose." This is 10,000 taels of silver given by the emperor. You can take it. Chang Sihao's heart was shocked. Footsteps are frozen. Liu Jinwu smiled: "What are you hesitating about. Chang Sihao waved his hand and said: "No merit will not be punished." "Go forward. Liu Jinwu caught up and said, "Why didn't you do anything." I replied......" Chang Sihao turned violently: "Since the emperor is so generous." And why bother with those things that seal the cannon and pick the loaches. Liu Jinwu smiled: "You don't know this." Our emperor has a characteristic. Save everything. Just don't save military spending. Reward the heroes. This is a tradition that has fallen from the old emperor of Jiajing. Qi Jiguang is a coastal peacemaker. Kill a bandit, and you will be rewarded with thirty taels of silver. He has set the reward. but the money is from the treasury. That year, there were less than two million taels left after the total revenue of the state treasury was settled. The military budget was given more than 1.4 million yuan. The old emperor was in so much pain at that time. But I'm still gritting my teeth to give it. Otherwise, there would be such a good record. Take what you know. There are fifty-two cannons in Datong City. That's all technology bought from the red hair. The money spent on making it is even bigger. As one of the three major battalions of the Beijing Division, the Shenji Battalion is only equipped with sixteen gates. The money is not all from the emperor. This little bit of silver is just a little bit of money. There will be more in the future. ”
Chang Sihao knew that his brain was no better than these ghosts in the capital. I'm afraid of being fooled. See that he speaks fluently. Most of the time. That's a relief. But he still refused to accept the cashier's ticket. Liu Jinwu had no choice but to pick it up for him.
The two of them got off the bridge and walked forward. Chang Sihao saw Sanqingguan from afar. And he turned it again. Let Liu Jinwu wait outside. See you at Miaofeng. The ceremony is over. Ask about the condition. Miao Feng smiled: "You kid really has a heart. No liver is already fine. Said to be here to recuperate. The emperor has already promised. Chang Sihao came to visit at the bedside. See each other. Liverlessness is also unusually reassuring.
The two talked for a while. Chang Sihao was afraid that it would affect her rest, so he retreated again. It is expected that Miaofeng and Feng Bao will not speculate. Most of them are not Dongchang gang. He directly asked about the dispersion of the five wills. Miao Feng listened to the whole reason. It is strange, too. Recalled: "Patriarch Wu did make this medicine. But I'm sad because of some old things. Don't go into the medicine room again. I don't even want to listen to the word medicine. The things used in medicine are all handed over to Senior Brother An to take care of. Prescription or something. I don't want to be left behind. Let the East Factory take it. ”
Chang Sihao asked: "How many people are there in Sanssouci Hall." Among the servants and miscellaneous servants. There are no suspicious characters. ”
Miaofeng said: "After the master moved to Hainan. Surrounded by my brothers. Since I entered the palace. He never returned to Master again. I don't know anything else. ”
Chang Sihao was confused. It is expected that this matter has nothing to do with her. Not much of an intrusion either. Get up and take your leave. Miao Feng called and said, "You only ask about the condition of others. but what is the matter with your own body? Chang Sihao smiled: "My injury was seen by an old Mr. Liu." He had a lot of small needles in my arms. But the effect is not great. He said he was going back to find another way. Miao Feng said: "Yes." It was Dr. Liu who treated you. Small needle air conditioning. Large needle tuning. He can come up with a way to go back to the bottom of the book. It can also be regarded as a person who studies medical science. However, you have luck with it. True Qi stagnation. How can a doctor regulate? Let's practice martial arts out of the deviation. I have to rely on martial arts to adjust back. Today I will teach you a set of guidance methods. It's a compensation for the palm a few days ago. ”
Chang Sihao was overjoyed. Hurriedly lowered his head and said: "Real people are serious." I can't thank you enough. ”
Miaofeng waved his hand: "I'm doing this." It is also the number of ways to go from the end to the book. You see. She said and stood up. The hands hang down naturally. Breathe well. Ten fingertips slowly cocked to the sides. Push to the limit. Then raise your arms flat on the outer support. The whole body is like a cross. Chang Sihao followed suit. I only felt the fingertips and the middle tendons of both arms tightened. The palms of the hands are slightly warm. and twisted his feet and palms left and right with Miaofeng. The tendons on the arms are gradually connected from the shoulders to the back. Stretch to the bottom of your feet. A sense of flow is created in the body. Follow the guidance of your body movements. The stagnant qi and blood on the back are also like a thick lump of wool. was torn apart by the strands of his limbs and scattered.
Miao Feng looked surprised when he saw him. Knowing that it has worked. A set of movements is taught. He smiled lightly: "This technique is called 'Yuwang Flow'." The effect of dredging meridians is the greatest. You practice according to the law. Up to three days. At least a day or two. The stagnation can be removed. Be careful, though. At first, the limbs guide the qi and blood. No awareness. Breathing should be pure and natural. Wait for the interior to go smoothly. You don't have to be limited to action. Rely on consciousness to take a belt. And it got up. "After correcting the details for him right now. He also took out a bottle of the elixir "Eagle Tendon Fire Phoenix Roast" that he had stored and gave it away.
Chang Sihao knew that this medicine was extremely effective. Thank you again and again. When he left Xiyuan, he threw two pills in his mouth. I'm in a good mood.
Liu Jinwu led him all the way east. The two of them passed the first three doors and came to the downtown area. I saw that the buying and selling shops were noisy. The stalls are filled with firecrackers of all kinds. The flowers are very beautiful. At this time, the end of the year is near. People are busy buying New Year's goods.
Chang Sihao walked while secretly using the art of introduction taught by Miaofeng. Exercise the body's qi and blood. The stagnation on the back is diffuse and evenly spread. Gradually. Feel comfortable. I thought to myself: "Medical martial arts are all based on the human body. But the same is different. It's like a piece of wood. Chopsticks can be made. It is also possible to make toothpicks. But pick your teeth with chopsticks. Absolutely not. Then Mr. Liu can tell me that my illness is not bad. But after so many stitches, it didn't work. Miaofeng's method of guidance is opened one by one. It felt great immediately. It really looks like a key to open a lock. ”
As soon as Liu Jinwu entered the commercial street, his eyes were not enough. The buyers and sellers saw that he was gorgeously dressed. They are also welcomed. Some of them knew him well. Don't stop the hustle and bustle. Liu Jinwu praised left and right. Refers to the east and west. Look at the set of octagonal lanterns is good. brought it up for Chang Sihao to see. Listen to him. So he told the merchant, "Give me the bag." Send it to the old Yan house at the east end of Jiangmi Lane. "After a while, I saw a good basin. also take it for Chang Sihao to see. Such a street from beginning to end. I don't know how much I bought.
Chang Sihao smiled when he saw him. The mouth is broken like a mother-in-law. It's annoying to hear. I thought to myself that this kid took advantage of my excuse to buy things. When the time comes, report to the emperor. It's a child's mentality. Not very profitable. I didn't bother to pay attention to him for a while. pondered to himself: "Cheng Lian'an's matter has come to this." and it was up to him. But Yin'er's illness needs to be cured. Revenge must not be avenged. Xiaoyu said that the factory affairs of the East Factory were all handed over to Guo Shu Ronghua to take care of. Feng Baoduo is in the palace. How do you know about the rivers and lakes? I went to him and asked who had the antidote. Most of them couldn't ask anything. I can't deal with Guo Shu Ronghua. Don't say it's him. Even if it's any of the four major stalls. I'm no match for anyone else. What's more, the current internal strength is damaged. It's not as good as before. ”
He thought that he was just a qi string. It's so uncomfortable. Then Qin Ziyin's five internal organs are chaotic. I don't know what kind of pain it will be. There was another feeling of discomfort in my heart. However, it is useless to know that you are overthinking. I also try to remove my spirit. I saw a ready-to-wear shop in front of me. He shook off Liu Jinwu, who was looking at the furniture. Go in alone and hide in the quiet. The shopkeeper saw that he was dressed richly. Treat each other very kindly. Chang Sihao was embarrassed to turn around. Just waiting to leave. I saw a woman's costume next to it. So he chose a match. One-collared skirt. Pay the bill and go out. Liu Jinwu chased after him and took the clothes for him. smiled: "I see Chitose choose this size." seems to fit in well with Sister Gu's figure. ”
Chang Sihao walked forward with his own thoughts: "Yes." I bought it for her. She treated me very well. Sending a gift should naturally. ”
Liu Jinwu followed with a smile: "She has served the old emperor." It's been in the palace for a long time. The mind is old-fashioned. No one can find fault with it. ”
Chang Sihao said: "So she is the same to everyone." Liu Jinwu said: "Not really. It's pretty much the same. Chang Sihao chuckled sideways and said, "You became the head of the inner court at such a young age." It's amazing. I'm afraid that the mind is much more sophisticated than her. Liu Jinwu smiled: "I also entrusted the blessing of my ancestors." My grandfather was a Jinshi in Zhengde for three years. Shame on the heavens. He used to be an official in the court. He served as a secretary of the military department. He was an old man who knew how to treat medicine and water. Both civil and military. In those years, he also set up an ambush in the Heishui River to annihilate the enemy. The Little Ten Kings who have killed the Tartars. ”
Chang Sihao was in awe: "It turns out that the old man is so good. ”
Liu Jinwu said: "Yes." He's an old man who's remarkable. I'm always proud of it, too. But I can't. Relying on the blessings of the ancestors. Shaded the errand of a brocade guard. There are no military achievements. and no political achievements. I want to take the martial arts exam. I can't do this kung fu. So listen to Chitose talk about killing Tartars. Envy is tight. Alas. It's a pity that the wish is not successful. Heaven does not prosthet. If it's really not. I also learn from Xiao Anzi. You have to be a eunuch. ”
In a word, it hurts Chang Sihao's heart. frowned and said, "Being a eunuch is better than you are now." ”
Liu Jinwu said with a smile: "In fact, eunuchs are also divided into three, six, nine and so on. You don't have to be too sad for that little Anzi. He has his father-in-law Feng Bao by the emperor's side. I am also working in the East Factory. The future is by no means comparable to that of ordinary people. Those officers in the East Factory are struggling hard. In the future, I will only be the head of the stall. It's like a thousand or hundreds of households in the factory. Now it is customary to be directly assigned from Jinyiwei. No eunuchs. So the eunuch entered the East Factory. In the future, he will enter a high position. Feng Baoruo was really willing to let him follow the emperor. From the beginning, he should have been allowed to enter the palace to learn the rules of the university. But in fact, he was arranged to go to the East Factory. The purpose is still obvious. ”
Chang Sihao felt that there were many things here that he couldn't figure out. There was a moment of silence.
Liu Jinwu sighed: "In comparison. The status of our Jinyi Guard is far less than before. Don't look at me as the head of the guard. Seeing Guo Shu Ronghua, he must not be in order. He was polite to me. It's because I'm a neighbor next to the emperor. One than the power in the hands. That's a world of difference. Entered the palace. He listened to the emperor and Feng Bao. Out of the palace. Who else can control him? All major yamen have East Factory officers on duty. Whoever did what in a day is documented. In addition to the imperial relatives and several cabinet ministers. He wants to catch and kill whom. It can be captured directly. There is no need to report to the emperor. This is within the Kyoshi. When an official saw him, he had no choice but to respectfully call him 'Guo Dugong'. Such majesty. But it's true. There is no half-heartedness. Cheng Lian'an Ruozhen studied for the imperial examination. Whether you can be admitted or not is in two words. I was admitted to the exam. The promotion of the official is much younger. Even if you do the six squires and books. Don't look at the face of the governor of Dongchang. If it were me. Ruthless. Maybe I'll get myself this one on the knife too. ”
Chang Sihao listened to him. The expression gradually became solemn. "He's right. When civil officials do. Not to mention being a military general. When you don't fight, you don't have military merit. If you come back from the battle. What kind of official. Most of them are similar to Master Cheng. Cheng Lianan looked down on his father. Of course, it will not follow this thankless old path. The reason why he can be ruthless. Maybe it is this shortcut that can be the fastest to take power and develop. But he's young. What do you want so much power for? It's incomprehensible. ”
Think back to last night. Sad, he laughed to himself: "Cheng Lian'an is right. What is bloodline? Master Cheng is his father. He is not the son of Master Cheng. When I found him, I fulfilled Master Cheng's last wish. Can you still discipline him? Accompany him for the rest of his life. I'm afraid in his eyes. I haven't lived for him yet. That's it. He loves to learn well, so he learns well. If you love to learn badly, you will learn badly. Everyone has their own life. Let him be his understanding. I'll be my man. "Come to think of it. The mood is also a little brighter.
Seeing that Liu Jinwu said that he also had the idea of becoming a eunuch later. It's a joke though. It's not a bad idea. I couldn't help laughing and scolding: "Cut the bird." Urine swirls against your ass and runs down your crotch. Wash your legs with urine all day long. It's better to be a good old girl. What the fuck is that. You are also a general. Great man. How can you say such frustrating. It's not a shame for your old man. ”
Liu Jinwu's eyes lit up. Slammed his thigh and laughed evilly: "Hey." You can say that again. Damn it. Lao Tzu is the most bad. At least pee and walk in a straight line. ”
Chang Sihao's big hand clasped his shoulder. Laughing: "That's right." It's time to talk about it. It's time to laugh. How to be happy and how to live. There are farts that have to be released to smoke others. You can't hold it back. ”
Liu Jinwu was happy: "Xie Chitose." I don't know why. Listen to you. It's a pleasure. Chang Sihao smiled: "A thousand fart years." It's not Wang Ba. You're older than me in terms of age. Just call me Brother Chang. Liu Jinwu asked, "What is your birthday?" Chang Sihao said: "September." Liu Jinwu said: "I'm October." Smaller than you. You can afford me. I'm not polite to you either. Take a step higher. Call you big brother. Brother Chang. Done. Chang Sihao smiled. I thought that there was no reason for the age to be born regardless of the year of birth. I also know his heart. Don't compete with this vulgar detail. Nodding in response, "Good brother." ”
The two talked and laughed and walked around for a long time. Seeing the day until noon. There is a restaurant in front. Chang Sihao said: "Hungry, hungry." Let's go inside. Take care of this old intestine and belly. But he was pulled by Liu Jinwu. I saw him smile mysteriously: "Big brother." I'll take you to a nice place. ”
