Chapter 9 What the Imperial Master thinks
"Thank you for your kindness, General. I have other places to go, so I can't stay too long." The young man declined politely. It took him two years to get to the east. He will go to the south, west, and north next. He almost has to go around in a circle. Time is not enough, so it would be better if the schedule can be shortened. "Where will you go next?" "I plan to go to the south, west, and north." The young man did not intend to hide his itinerary and told Shi Heng about his itinerary. "Will the Taoist priest go to Shangjing?" When he asked this, Shi Heng's heartbeat quickened, fearing that the young man would say something. The young man took a look at Shi Heng and guessed what he was thinking. He smiled and said, "Shangjing is the capital of the big city. I will naturally go to such a prosperous place, but I have to wait until I finish these places first. Of course, going to Shangjing is purely to see the prosperity of Kyoto, and I probably won't stay too long. "
The young man's words made Shi Heng feel much more at ease. It was better that he was not going to seek revenge, otherwise the world would change.
Then Shi Heng prepared some wine and food and invited the young man to drink together.
The young man did not refuse and accepted Shi Heng's kindness. After eating, Shi Heng packed up the accommodation for the young man to rest.
Overall, this was the most comfortable time for the young man in two years. He could eat well and sleep well.
After sending the young man to rest, Shi Heng hurriedly left and went to the study to write a letter. Soon he called a guard.
Shi Heng handed the letter to the guard and asked him to set off overnight and rush to Shangjing to hand the letter to the national teacher or His Majesty. This matter is very important, so he must be careful.
The guard understood, put the letter in his arms and left in a hurry.
The next day, shortly after dawn, the young man woke up and opened the door. General Shi Heng was already standing outside the door.
The young man asked in confusion: "Why didn't the general wake me up? "
Shi Heng hurriedly explained: "We soldiers are used to getting up before dawn, and we don't want to disturb the Taoist priest. I heard from the Taoist priest last night that he would leave this morning, so I came here to wait. Please have breakfast with me."
"Thank you, General."
The young man went to eat with Shi Heng. After eating, the young man said goodbye to Shi Heng.
"Master, wait a minute."
Shi Heng stopped the young man.
I saw a soldier leading a horse with a lot of things on its back.
"This journey is long. I saw that the Taoist priest has no carriage or horse to travel, so I specially equipped him with a good horse, put some food and a few clothes for him to use on the road. Please don't refuse."
Shi Heng saw that the young man came alone, and in addition to a bundle, he also had a pot, so he took the initiative to prepare these things for the young man.
The young man thought about it and felt that Shi Heng was right. Having a horse would make him feel much more relaxed.
"Thank you, General. See you again if we are lucky. ”
The young man accepted Shi Heng’s intention.
“Master, take care!”
…
Three days later, he went to the capital and did a lot of work in Kyoto. The Imperial Master hurried into the palace. On the way, he met an official who saluted him but he did not respond at all, as if he did not see or hear anything. He walked a little faster.
“Why is the Imperial Master in such a hurry? Did something big happen?” Someone suspected that the Imperial Master had always been calm and it was rare to see him like this, as if something big had happened.
“Hurry back and find out what happened. During this time, restrain the people in the palace and do not anger His Majesty.”
“That’s right, that’s right. Goodbye!”
…
The Emperor’s Imperial Study.
“Why is the Imperial Master so flustered? What happened?” The Emperor asked curiously when he saw the Imperial Master’s state.
“Your Majesty will know at a glance.” "
The Imperial Master didn't waste any words and directly handed the letter to the emperor.
It was written by Shi Heng and was just delivered to him not long ago. He took a look and hurried into the palace to meet the emperor without saying anything.
The emperor took the letter in confusion. After a moment, the emperor's eyes changed and his face was heavy.
"So many years have passed, how come a descendant of Fulong Temple suddenly appeared. Imperial Master, what do you think?"
He was the seventh emperor of Daqian, and naturally knew the secrets of the year.
"I know Shi Heng. He dared to say such a thing, so he must have verified it personally. Your Majesty does not need to doubt this.
And Shi Heng also wrote in the letter that this person has the same means as the immortal master Lin Tian.
Alas, God does not pity the world, but only loves Fulong Temple. A hundred years ago, Lin Tian, a hundred years later, Zhang Fulong. "
The Imperial Master sighed, the way of heaven favors Fulong Temple too much. A hundred years ago, there was a Lin Tian, and a hundred years later, there was a Zhang Fulong, not giving the world a chance.
"Will this person have an impact on my Daqian? "The emperor asked again.
In the emperor's mind, it doesn't matter whether they are descendants of Fulong Temple or not. What is related to the royal family is whether the descendants of Fulong Temple will seek revenge on his royal family. After all, the royal family was the hero behind the tragedy of Fulong Temple.
If the descendants of Fulong Temple seek revenge, can Da Gan withstand the other party's anger?
The national teacher saw the emperor's worry and said:
"Your Majesty, don't worry. Shi Heng has already stated in the letter that he has tested the descendants of Fulong Temple, and the other party does not want to investigate what happened that year."
After getting the national teacher's answer, the emperor's face turned around a lot, and asked back: "If so, why is the national teacher so panicked?"
"What I am worried about is that what happened that year will continue to happen again."
What the national teacher meant was that the descendants of Fulong Temple would not investigate what happened that year, but there might be someone who wanted to let what happened that year happen again.
This person includes people from the underworld, aristocratic families, etc. Of course, the emperor is also included.
This is the reason why the national teacher is panicked.
As I said, who in the world doesn't want to pursue immortality, especially the current emperor. Once he can become a Qigong practitioner and live to 200 years old, the great cause can at least continue for 200 years. Adding the previous 100 years, the country's life span will be at least 400 years.
400 years is also the longest in history. Looking back from ancient times to the present, which dynasty can break the 300-year curse.
"Don't worry, Imperial Master, I will never let this tragedy happen again."
The emperor assured the Imperial Master.
"Your Majesty is wise."
"Shi Heng's letter said that this descendant of Fulong Temple will go to the south, west and north before coming to the capital. According to his walking speed, it will take at least four or five years. What should we do?"
The emperor asked the national teacher for his opinion. The national teacher thought for a while and said, "Your Majesty only needs to issue an imperial decree. The soldiers of the three borders shall not stop the descendants of Fulong Temple when they meet them. If the descendants of Fulong Temple have any requests, they shall obey their orders. Everything else is up to fate."
The emperor nodded and said, "Have you investigated the identity of this person?"
It can be confirmed from Taizu's records that no one in Fulong Temple could escape at that time, but why this person suddenly appeared is really unreasonable. What happened in which link? He wants to investigate the reason clearly.
"Before entering the palace, I have ordered people to investigate this matter, and there will be results soon."
The national teacher replied that he also couldn't guess how that person escaped under the heavy siege at that time.
