Chapter 368 The Disabled Will Serve Zhuge Strongly
Bai Sheng was crippled.
In the following days, Bai Sheng appeared in front of the people of the capital in the image of Zhuge Kongming.
Wearing a scarf on his head, he sat in a wheelchair that was rushed out of the prison as a prisoner, and the wheelchair was pushed by a tall beautiful woman in green clothes, swaggering through the city under the escort of 2,500 forbidden soldiers.
The wheelchair was made according to Bai Sheng's request, and Zhao Ji personally ordered the skilled craftsmen who were the supervisors to make it. With a feather fan on the left armrest and a copper rod on the right armrest, the wheelchair has a strange shape as a whole, but it is very practical, it can be pushed from behind by a person, or pulled in front by a horse.
Although Bai Sheng is disabled, he must be disabled.
At least Zhao Ji asked Bai Sheng to be physically disabled, otherwise he, the emperor, would likely be disabled.
Now that Zhao Ji has returned to the inner harem, as the emperor, it is not appropriate to always lie in the courtier's house to recuperate, no matter what the reason, it is always good to say that it is not good. The reason why he didn't return to the palace before was because he followed the "medical advice" of Bai Sheng, a doctor.
Of course, Bai Sheng didn't want Zhao Ji to return to the palace soon, because Zhao Ji's return to the palace meant that Lin Lingsu would also return to the palace, and the matter of himself and Concubine Wei Xian snatching Fang Jinzhi would be exposed prematurely.
Although he had already given Concubine Wei Xian a face-to-face lesson, considering that the longer this kind of thing was, the more difficult it would be to track it down, so it was better to give Concubine Wei Xian a period of time to cover up the clues.
The emperor returned to Ouchi, and Bai Sheng, the promotion of the Imperial Medical Bureau, of course, could also freely enter and leave the Ouchi Palace, especially because of his siblings, he could get the same treatment as Lin Lingsu, and he could enter the emperor's harem at will.
A person with crippled arms and legs, who can't take care of himself in a wheelchair, will never cuckold the emperor, right? So Zhao Ji was very relieved of him. Let him talk to Concubine Wei Xian alone, let him talk to Zhao Fujin, and let it go.
Zhao Ji's belief is very firm, he only hopes that Bai Sheng can cure his dragon root, and other things can be patiently and indulged for the time being, and it is not too late to cross the river and demolish the bridge when the strong wind is revived.
Zhao Ji also dissuaded Bai Sheng from giving up the Western Expedition, but Bai Sheng still insisted on going, the reason was to get back the panacea Indian Divine Oil with his own hands, this reason made Zhao Ji speechless, and could only provide him with as much support as possible.
During this period, hundreds of officials in the DPRK and China also raised objections, saying that Bai Sheng was like this, how could he lead his troops to fight? Or change the vanguard officer and let Bai Sheng go out with Tong Shumi.
However, Bai Sheng directly said to the Confucians, saying that Zhuge Liang was also in a wheelchair, so he couldn't still arrest and kill whom? In the end, it was wisdom that was used to fight the war. Qunru was directly speechless, not daring to argue with this smash hit disabled person.
Because Zhao Fujin washed his face with tears every day after discovering that he was crippled, he couldn't bear to see her sad appearance, so he had to avoid her as much as possible, in order to take care of the overall situation of the Western Expedition, he couldn't tell her that he was actually full of beards and tails.
So when he was in the harem, he would probably always stay in Concubine Wei Xian's Kunning Palace, he did this not only to avoid Zhao Fujin, but also to prevent Lin Lingsu from coming to ask questions, what he was most worried about was that Lin Lingsu simply used the ecstasy charm to confuse Concubine Wei Xian to seek the truth.
In fact, Lin Lingsu had already come once before he entered the palace, and Concubine Wei Xian prevaricated according to his instructions.
But the subsequent situation proved that he was accurate, Lin Lingsu did come twice more, and only gave up the idea of visiting the house after finding out that he had been with Concubine Wei Xian for a long time.
In this way, he was tantamount to doing Zhao Ji a great favor, making the green on Zhao Ji's head much lighter.
However, Concubine Wei Xian was a little unhappy, because Bai Sheng was staring at her like this day and night, and she couldn't solve her physiological needs.
She once found the palace maid who followed Hu Sanniang to serve Bai Sheng to the toilet, and asked Bai Sheng if the place was normal, and the palace maid truthfully reported that Bai Sheng's thing was intact.
So she hinted to Bai Sheng that she could sit in a wheelchair and let each other taste the fun in a face-to-face position as long as she wanted, but Bai Sheng firmly disagreed.
Bai Sheng is always on guard against Lin Lingsu's troubles, so the Dragon Sparrow Divine Sword never leaves the wheelchair, as long as the Dragon Bird Divine Sword does not leave the wheelchair, it is impossible for him to mess with the relationship between men and women with Concubine Wei Xian, whether he wants to or not.
Then Concubine Wei Xian was depressed, and every time she slandered Bai Sheng, didn't you occupy the pit and not?
Bai Sheng knew this woman's hunger and thirst, and said in his heart that if he didn't solve it for her, one day she would go to Lin Lingsu to quench her thirst. Just say that otherwise, you can ask the eunuch or palace maid to help you solve it with special utensils, or you can use cucumbers.
Bai Sheng has traveled to the Northern Song Dynasty for nearly half a year, and knows that there are no carrots and no long eggplants in this era.
Concubine Wei Xian complained, and said forget it, my sister hurt your younger brother in vain, and she is not even as good as a eunuch.
During this time, Bai Sheng also quietly flipped through the other three books he stole from Lin Lingsu, namely "Qingli Living Note", "Qingli Shizheng Ji" and "Qingli Huiyao", and sure enough, he found something.
All three books are archival historical documents.
Among them, the "Living Note" records what Song Renzong said and did during the Qingli period, and even when and which concubine he had a relationship with every day and how long he worked very clearly.
The "Chronicles of the Times" records all the holy decrees issued by Song Renzong during the Qingli period, as well as the important instructions made on the hundred officials.
The "meeting" is a record of the topics and decisions of Song Renzong in the early dynasty of the Qingli period and other times to convene the ministers to discuss the issues.
In these three files, most of them record one thing, that is, before the rebellion of King Xiangyang, he ordered his first master, the Great Sage Deng Che, and the first light skill master, Hua Butterfly Hua Chong, to gather a group of martial arts figures to enter the Inner Palace and steal several heavy treasures in the palace.
The stolen items include: the complete works of the Book of Hetuluo, the 30 volumes of the Nanhua Sutra, a jade horse, a wandering bow, and a pair of gold armor in the Yanling circle.
Seeing this, Bai Sheng realized that Xu Ning's so-called ancestral treasure armor turned out to be a stolen item in Ouchi, but for some reason, no one remembered it after sixty or seventy years.
I think it may be that Song Renzong did not notify the list of stolen items at that time, and after several generations of emperors, Zhao Ji and the officials led by Cai Jing naturally would not be idle and go to check the archives of the Qingli period like Lin Lingsu, so no one knew about it. Otherwise, Xu Ning would definitely not be able to keep this armor.
Knowing the origin of the golden armor of the Yanling Circle, Bai Sheng was even more unhappy, he only borrowed Xu Ning's armor for an afternoon, and took it off in the evening for Pan Jinlian and Yan Poxi to clean it and return it to Xu Ning, and Xu Ning's face was clearly distressed and unhappy when he took back the armor.
Is it your stuff that makes you feel distressed? Are you unhappy?
In addition to the golden armor of this Yanling ring, the jade horse recorded in the archives also attracted Bai Sheng's attention, could this lost jade horse be the one that Shi Qian stole Wang Hao and handed over to Cai Jing to him?
There can't be only one horse in the world, and there can't be only one jade horse, and people have the same name and surname, not to mention the word "jade horse"?
So he didn't waste much time on this jade horse's conjecture, what he cared about was what Lin Lingsu's purpose was in looking at these files.
Lin Lingsu is a cultivator, so he shouldn't be interested in armor and bows and arrows, and he probably won't be greedy for jade horses, so it is basically certain that Lin Lingsu also wants to find the "Hetuluo Book" or the "Nanhua Sutra".
Bai Sheng has traveled over for a long time, and he is often with female lyricists like Li Qingzhao and Cai Jing and great writers, and he has also learned a lot about the Four Books and Five Classics. He knew that the "Nanhua Sutra" was actually the "Taiping Technique".
In this way, the "Taiping Technique" obtained by Fan Rui should be the "Nanhua Sutra" stolen from the palace by Deng Che and Hua Chong during the Qingli period. It's just that Deng Che and Hua Chong stole all of them at that time, and Fan Rui got even less, Deng Che stole thirty volumes, and Fan Rui only got three volumes.
So he felt that it was more likely that Lin Lingsu wanted to find the "Nanhua Sutra", of course, it could not be completely ruled out that Lin Lingsu wanted to find the "Hetuluo Book", after all, Huang Shang, an alternative who is also martial arts and cultivators, also yearns for the "Hetuluo Book".
So, apart from Xu Ning's treasure armor, where are all these lost items that have been stolen?
Bai Sheng at least knows one thing, that is, the wandering bow, the wandering bow should be in the hands of Xiao Li Guanghuarong, this is written in the original book of "Water Margin", if the original work is completely consistent with this world, then there will be no mistake.
There are also certain clues in the archives about the whereabouts of these lost items. What is recorded in the archives is that these lost items were hidden by the King of Xiangyang in the Chongxiao Tower of the Xiangyang Palace.
However, it is also recorded in the archives that after Nanxia Zhanzhao, Beixia Ouyang Chun and others joined forces with the five rats of the Trap Island to break through the Sky Tower, the whereabouts of these lost items are unknown.
Is it conceivable that Hua Rong is Hua Chong's descendant, and Hua Chong secretly hid the wandering bow after stealing these things.
It can even be assumed that Xu Ning is the descendant of Xu Qing, the mountain rat, who secretly hid this golden armor after breaking through the Xiaolou.
As for the Hetu Luo Book and the Nanhua Sutra, could it be taken away by Bai Yutang?
