Star City,
Changlu lowered his voice.
"Master Hongguang is an eminent monk, and he is also a miraculous doctor for countless living people. You and others must take good care of his daily life and diet. If you delay, be careful that His Majesty will kill you."
"I understand, Master." The little eunuch responded with his neck curled up.
Emperor Changxing has been in good spirits recently.
Master Hongguang took his disciples "actively" into the palace and helped him diagnose and treat him.
Under the skill of his master, the old emperor's body suddenly became much better, and his head became quieter.
Although I still feel a dull pain occasionally when I encounter difficulties, I can at least have a peaceful sleep at night.
Royal study room.
Du Ziming, the commander of the Jinlin Guards, stood in front of the Dragon Case and reported honestly.
"Your Majesty, among the named authors of the newspaper, we have only found Master Hongguang for the time being. He and his disciples have been arrested and brought to justice from Laigu County..."
boom!
Emperor Changxing slapped the paperweight on the dragon table hard, grabbed it and almost threw it towards the smug face below.
"Damn it! Master Hongguang is an eminent monk in our dynasty. He has profound Buddhist teachings and superb medical skills. He enjoys high prestige among the people in the dynasty. The articles he writes are also ordinary travel notes and daily news, and you actually arrest people."
"If it weren't for me..."
If I hadn't covered it for you. If the news that you captured Master Hongguang spreads, not even I can protect you.
"Yes, yes, yes." Du Ziming bent down like a shrimp, trying to squeeze out a look of fear on his face, "Your Majesty, forgive me. I am a humble minister who deserves death."
"That's all." Emperor Changxing waved his hand, not intending to blame him.
It is true that Master Hongguang is an eminent monk, and his medical skills are even more exquisite, but this old monk has a very bad temper.
Since he suffered from a headache, the imperial doctors were helpless. Emperor Changxing had no choice but to turn to the private sector for medical advice. Later, he even sent Prince Ming to personally go to Laigu and Miwu County to fetch Master Hongguang.
However, the old monk always turned a deaf ear.
He would rather lead his disciples under the scorching sun to treat the injuries of the men who were building the post roads than take another look at the emperor's imperial edict.
As for the so-called Prince Ming's face, Master Hongguang ignored it even more, which made Chen Xiujian grit his teeth when he personally came to invite him, but he was still helpless.
It seems that if his article had not been serialized in this newspaper, Emperor Changxing would not have been able to bring this old monk into Xingji City to treat him.
Fortunately, Master Hongguang entered Xingji City, and Emperor Changxing finally breathed a sigh of relief.
"Master Hongguang, please leave this place alone. Have you found any other information?"
Du Ziming's face turned bitter.
"Back to Your Majesty, half a month ago, I took the initiative to track down the source of the newspaper according to Your Majesty's order."
"Later I discovered that most of the people who delivered newspapers in Xingji City were illiterate beggars. They couldn't even tell what the newspapers in their hands were, what they were used for, and where they came from. They only knew that they took the money and sent the newspapers everywhere. Just for sale.”
"I have arrested a group of beggars and put them in prison for interrogation, but there is no result yet."
Moreover, the beggars would rather stay in jail in order to have food to eat, and none of them even want to speak.
Jin Linwei, who was afraid of everyone, was almost furious.
"In addition to these beggars, there are also a group of servants from major mansions delivering newspapers."
Speaking of this, Du Ziming looked strange.
"These people cover all the high-ranking sects in Star City. However, they only pick up newspapers according to their master's wishes and have no idea where these newspapers come from."
"Who are the masters of these mansions?" Emperor Changxing asked grimly.
"Your Majesty, they are all the female relatives of the concubine, and most of them are the legitimate concubines of various mansions."
As Du Ziming spoke, he couldn't help but lower his head.
Not to mention others, even his own delicate daughters are among them.
Even the tigress at home now likes reading newspapers...
Emperor Changxing understood immediately upon hearing this and soon lost interest.
Not to mention the little girls outside the forbidden palace like to watch, even the idle concubines and princesses in his harem.
"Continue to investigate. Sulan is an economic center, and people from all walks of life are in and out. If you can't find it in Xingji City, go to Sulan City to check. If you can't find it in Sulan City, go to the various counties to check."
"I don't believe they are hiding so deeply in every place. I must find out who is behind this thing."
"Wei Chen accepts the order."
"By the way," Emperor Changxing stroked his beard with interest, "should the newspaper for the second half of July be out?"
cough.
Du Ziming coughed lightly and couldn't help but twist his face.
Your Majesty, your high-spirited appearance makes Weichen very embarrassed.
Do you want to see it or not?
"Reply to Your Majesty, under normal circumstances, all major gates will receive newspapers tomorrow afternoon."
"but……"
Emperor Changxing glared, "But what?"
"Your Majesty, Wei Chen has been tracing the source of the newspaper recently."
"The thieves who run the newspaper are quite powerful. They can know clearly what is happening thousands of miles away, and they will probably be aware of the actions of the ministers. Under the pressure of His Majesty and the court, they may be scared and give up. run or convert the newspaper into other formats.”
In this way, God knows whether there will be newspapers to read tomorrow.
Emperor Changxing nodded, looking thoughtful.
The two of them murmured for a while before Du Ziming left the palace.
"Changlu, Changlu?"
"The old slave is here." The old eunuch hurried over, "Your Majesty?"
"It's getting late, come with me for a walk in the harem."
Changlu breathed a sigh of relief.
In the past, when Emperor Changxing had a splitting headache, he wanted to hold his head and scream for murder all day long. Now with the help of Master Hongguang, His Majesty has finally returned to normal.
“I wonder which empress’ palace your Majesty is going to?”
Emperor Changxing suddenly remembered a graceful figure riding a horse and dancing a sword, "What is Concubine Qing doing now?"
The last time she broke into the royal study, she injured several eunuchs. After she returned, she even stayed behind closed doors. She didn't know what happened to them.
whee.
Chang Lu smiled, "I have always been by your Majesty's side. I only know that the Qingyun Palace has been closed to thank guests since the last time the imperial concubine returned."
"Your Majesty, do you want to move to Qingyun Palace?"
"Go." Emperor Changxing nodded.
Most of the concubines are good actors. Although they are pleasing to the eye, they are not comfortable to speak.
Moreover, the news of the establishment of the crown prince has spread, and the harem is a little sensitive at this time. No matter which palace Emperor Changxing entered, it would arouse wild speculation from other concubines.
For the sake of peace in the palace, it is more appropriate to go to Qingyun Palace.
Compared with other concubines whose words and deeds are inconsistent, Concubine Qing, who is straightforward, is more pleasant to get along with.
Entered Qingyun Palace.
Concubine Qing bowed, but she didn't even look at her.
"What kind of wind brings His Majesty here?"
cough.
Emperor Changxing coughed and found a stool to sit down on.
"Before, the weather was sultry and the state affairs were busy, so I didn't come to see the imperial concubine much. Now that I finally have some free time, I wanted to come over and take a look."
oh.
Concubine Qing didn't know whether she heard it or not, so she said lightly.
"Where's Thirteen?" Concubine Qing's coldness made Emperor Changxing unable to find anything to talk about.
He looked around, wanting to see his thirteenth daughter.
Concubine Qing glanced at him lightly, "Your Majesty, you are such a noble man who forgets things. An Rong got married two years ago."
Ahem.
Emperor Changxing couldn't help but blush, and glared at the old eunuch who didn't give any warning.
Changlu was so aggrieved that he looked up at the sky.
"The affairs of the country are busy, cough, I am busy with the affairs of the country..."
It's just that Concubine Qing said she was getting married, which meant that the thirteenth princess was getting married. She must not even have the identity of a princess or even a county owner.
If it had been the queen or other concubines, the trouble would have gone to the previous court.
Concubine Qing just silently married off her only daughter, just like the Zhenguo Duke's Palace silently guarded the Yanjie Fortress.
Emperor Changxing felt guilty.
"Changlu, the Thirteen Princesses are beautiful and smart, knowledgeable and courteous..."
He boasted loudly, "I am a great captain. I will make the Thirteenth Princess the Princess of Anrong. I will give the Princess a palace, gold..."
"I thanked Your Majesty on behalf of Thirteen." Concubine Qing became a little happier.
First latest.
