Chapter 10 A High Man
More than ten days have passed in a blink of an eye. Although so far, the court and the court have been very smooth inside and outside, and some new policies have not encountered any resistance, but Huan Xuan is not happy.
There is no other reason, but the haunted incident is getting worse and worse. Except for Huan Xuan's own palace, almost all the rest of the palace has been haunted, and now the whole palace is panicked.
However, although the palace where Huan Xuan lives is not haunted, it does not mean that it has subsided. Well, the bed where he slept last night suddenly collapsed for some unknown reason. If it hadn't been for the haunted incident, Huan Xuan might have been secretly proud of himself. His sword is not old, and he must have been too happy with the concubines. Otherwise, how could the bed collapse? But of course I don't think so now.
Well, early in the morning, he called Bian Fanzhi to ask how the investigation was going. He is really a little scared now. If it goes on like this, he even has to think about whether it's time to move.
When Bian Fanzhi was ordered to investigate this matter, the eunuch caught a lot, but nothing useful was found out, but the rumor about the abandoned emperor finally spread to Huan Xuan's ears.
He has been busy these days. Huan Xuan has long forgotten about Sima Dezong. Now that the haunted thing in the palace has contacted the idiot, and he remembered the idiot who was pulled down by him.
Of course, Huan Xuan did not believe the rumor that Sima Dezong had become a fierce ghost, but he was not a fool. His intuition told him that this matter was probably really related to Sima Dezong. But what he can't figure out is that Sima Dezong is obviously an idiot, so his ability to pretend to be a ghost?
Bian Fan's waiter has been standing aside for a while. Of course, he knows why the boss is looking for him, so he is also worried. He has always been responsible for the affairs of the abandoned emperor. Now that there is such a big noise, there is nothing he can do. No wonder that the boss is not angry!
But he can't be blamed! He is just a mortal, so he has the ability to care about ghosts and gods?
Bian Fanzhi didn't believe in ghosts at first, but after he strengthened his vigilance, haunted incidents still emerged one after another, which made him now doubt whether there were really ghosts?
In fact, Bian Fan had an idea about the abolitionist emperor, but he had never had a chance to say it. Now that this haunting incident involves the abolitionist emperor, he felt that it was time to say it.
But before he opened his mouth, Huan Xuan spoke first.
"Dear our ancestors! Do you think this will really be caused by that idiot?" After all, he still doesn't believe that Sima Dezong has the ability to be haunted.
At this point, Bian Fanzhi and Huan Xuan have similar ideas. He also does not believe that the Abandoned Emperor has this ability, and after this incident, he has strengthened the vigilance around Yong'an Palace. Now the Yong'an Palace looks calm, but in fact it is heavily guarded.
However, there is nothing wrong there. Several eunuchs who go in and out have also investigated, and they are not the ones who can make waves at all.
Now listening to the boss's question, Bian Fanzhi hurriedly said, "I don't think it's possible. I know how many catties Sima Dezong has, so I think there must be someone else who made the ghost."
After a pause, he said, "About the abandoned emperor, minister..."
Before Bian Fanzhi finished his words, he heard the nearby waiter outside shouting, "Your Majesty, General Zuo Wei, Lord Yin Zhongwen, please see you"
Hearing the name Yin Zhongwen, Bian Fanzhi couldn't help frowning. Yin Zhongwen has not followed Huan Xuan for a long time, but he has won Huan Xuan's favor and is almost above him.
Sure enough, Huan Xuan suddenly smiled when he heard that Yin Zhongwen was coming.
"Quick Pass"
After saying that, Huan Xuan suddenly remembered that Bian Fanzhi seemed to have something to say. He turned his head and said, "What did Jingzu just want to say?"
"Oh! I want to say that if you send Sima Dewen to meet the Abandoned Emperor, won't the rumor that he is a ghost be confirmed immediately?
In fact, Bian Fanzhi wanted to suggest that Huan Xuan drive the abandoned emperor away from Jiankang, so that the capital would stop immediately. But now Yin Zhongwen came uninvited, and Bian Fanzhi didn't want him to know his plan, so he temporarily changed his words.
Huan Xuan nodded and said, "This is a good idea. Then you go and send Sima Dewen to Yong'an Palace. It is said that the person who is looked at by that idiot will die. I want to see if this is true or not?"
As soon as Huan Xuan's words fell, he saw a gentle middle-aged beautiful man strode in.
"I have met Your Majesty"
"Zhongwen, you came just in time. There is something you can give me some advice."
The beautiful man Yin Zhongwen bowed again and said, "Your Majesty's worries are the worries of my ministers. Your Majesty, please say that I will know everything and say everything."
In fact, Yin Zhongwen and Huan Xuan are related, and Yin Zhongwen has a talent and reputation, and his kung fu is also first-class. Only in this way can he stand out from Huan Xuan's men.
Bian Fanzhi frowned slightly, and Huan Xuan was not so intimate when he saw him! Did the boss's taste change? Don't you love beautiful women and beautiful men?
Huan Xuan's most powerful subordinates have begun to arrange him in his belly. After listening to Yin Zhongwen's words, he suddenly sighed and said, "Zhong Wen must have heard about the ghost of the palace. Although it was very fierce a few days ago, my bedroom was still calm, but I'm afraid that these peaceful days will pass. Last night, I The bed collapsed for no reason. Zhong Wen, do you think my spirit of the emperor can't deter the evil spirit?"
Yin Zhongwen is good at unting the ghosting of the palace. He has heard about it. He did come here today, but why did the emperor's bed collapse in the middle of the night? But it has gone beyond his understanding.
Yin Zhongwen reacted very quickly, muttered slightly, and immediately said happily, "Your Majesty is too worried. I think the reason why your majesty's dragon bed will collapse is that it can't carry your majesty's dragon body at all. Your majesty only needs to change a bed made of pure gold, and there will be no more such a thing."
"Oh! Is that all right?"
Huan Xuan likes to be extravagant. For him, using gold as a bed can be said to be his favorite. After listening to Yin Zhongwen's words, Long Yan was very happy.
Yin Zhongwen shook his head and said, "This is just the first step. If you want to completely eliminate the evil spirit of the palace, you must invite a master to do it. After knowing that the palace is haunted, I privately hired a wise Taoist priest to exorcise ghosts the palace. I have brought him. Now he is outside the palace. Please Your Majesty's determination"
In fact, Huan Xuan has long had the idea of inviting a master to exorcise ghosts, but as an emperor, how can he say this kind of thing by himself? But I didn't expect that Yin Zhongwen had already thought about it for him.
I can't help but "haha!" Laughing, "Okay... Zhong Wen deserves to be my humerus minister, come on! Hurry up and invite the mage to exorcise ghosts in my palace. If this happens, I will definitely get a lot of rewards."
From the beginning to the end, Yin Zhongwen did not look at Bian Fan, as if he did not exist at all. And Huan Xuan was also happy to see the open and secret struggle between the ministers, so he pretended not to know.
Seeing that the emperor spoiled Yin Zhongwen so much, Bian Fanzhi, who was like an angry little daughter-in-law, couldn't help but hate him. What a good idea is this? I can come up with ten or eight at any time. Yin, let you be rampant now. How many times can you laugh?
At this time, Lu Qiang, who was under house arrest in Yong'an Palace, did not know that his haunted plan had succeeded and was still carrying out his weight loss plan.
I don't know whether it is God's blessing or Zhao Xiu's potion has worked. In just over ten days, the road has been as strong as if it were reborn. Although there is still a lot of meat on the body, it is no longer the soft fat meat of the past, and has gradually developed into strong tendon meat.
Every day, I trotted a few laps in the hall to warm up, and then a series of the most scientific fitness methods in later generations, such as push-ups and sit-ups.
Lu Qiang's fitness method makes Zhao Xiu, who has advanced martial arts skills, puzzled. However, after reading it, he had to admit the effect of His Majesty's exercise method. At the same time, he has no doubt that where did your Majesty learn it? I have been with Your Majesty, and I haven't seen anyone you learn from!
Lu Qiang was not in the mood to explain to him. Today, he practiced hard and simply took off his coat and bare his arms.
In the past ten days, he has been used to the service of the women around him. Now he is sleeping at night. If no one undresses him, he will not be used to it.
For Lu Qiang's almost crazy behavior, Wang Shenai, including Zhao Xiu and others, has been used to it from the beginning to make a fuss until now. It's useless to persuade them. Their majesty is like a disobedient child. It doesn't matter what anyone says.
Lu Qiang does not blindly lose weight every day. In his spare time, he will let Wang Shenai teach him to write, and then call four little maids to tell them some strange but very interesting stories.
Now Lu Qiang is in the hearts of the four little maids. Even if he is the master, he is more like a generous big brother. With Lu Qiang, they are not as afraid of Zhao Xiu as before.
Even the two little eunuchs changed their previous thoughts. After knowing that the emperor had returned to normal people and was not a ghost, they waited more attentively. At the same time, under Zhao Xiu's strict instructions, he rarely stepped out of the palace and kept everything strictly secret from the emperor.
The current Yong'an Palace can be said to be a group of harmony.
Lu Qiang knows that losing weight is a persistent job, so he only exercises properly every day to avoid really hurting his body. He is also very happy with his changes these days. He is now wondering whether to let Zhao Xiu teach him some kung fu. This is the era of cold weapons. It is not enough to rely on the fighting experience he accumulated on the street in his previous life. He must learn some fighting skills of this era.
Thinking of this, Lu Qiang found that Zhao Xiu went out in the morning. Now it's past noon and he hasn't come back yet.
Because haunted things always revolve around Yong'an Palace, the guards are far away, and Zhao Xiu and others are more convenient to get in and out.
Today's practice subject is over and it's time to take a break.
Seeing Lu Qiang sitting back on the bed, Wang Shenai immediately came over obediently to wipe the sweat on his face and body. Now she did this kind of thing by herself and never pretended to be a stranger.
For her husband's stronger and stronger muscles, Wang Shenai is also more and more unbearable, making him sleep every night. Lu Qiang has to endure her harassment with super perseverance, but Lu Qiang knows that his human cannon has already reached the limit and will soon be unable to fire.
After wiping the sweat, Chunlan and Dongmei beside them immediately put on clothes for Lu Qiang. The cooperation of several people was like flowing water, natural and casual.
"Husband, the story of the white fox is so beautiful. Can you tell it again?"
Wang Shenai has been used to calling her husband. At the same time, Lu Qiang's spoiling of her has also made her bolder and bolder. The long-term depressed girlish personality is being released little by little.
Lu Qiang affectionately scraped Wang Shenai's delicate Yao's nose and was about to speak when he saw Zhao Xiu push the door and come in. So he smiled and said to Wang Shenai, "I'll tell you later. Let Lao Zhao tell me what news he got first?"
Try to inquire about the movements inside and outside the court. This is the task entrusted to Zhao Xiu by Lu Qiang. No one is more suitable to do this kind of thing than Zhao Xiu, the local snake of the palace. He doesn't believe that Huan Xuan is so popular, and no one opposes him.
However, after seeing Zhao Xiu's smiling face and slowly coming to Lu Qiang to salute, he said, "Actually, what the old slave heard is not a big deal, but the master will be happy to hear it."
"When did you, old man learn to sell? What news? Say it quickly
Lu Qiang was kind and easy-going, and the people around him were more or less sensitive and spoke less restrained.
Zhao Xiu saluted again and said with a smile, "Master, forgive me. I just heard that the thief invited a Taoist priest and was catching ghosts around the palace."
