Zhu Houcong felt a little panicked when he heard the news of his death. He was obsessed with immortality, and when he suddenly heard that he would die at the age of sixty, Zhu Houcong felt as if he had been struck by lightning.
In the context of this era, sixty years old is considered a long life, but Zhu Houcong is greedy. He feels that he has not lived enough, so he pursues immortality. But now he knows that if nothing happens to him, he will die in his lifetime. He did not seek immortality, and the alchemists he had always trusted were all deceiving him.
However, Zhu Houcong did not give up hope just like that. At this moment, he stared at Zhao Changge with burning eyes, and then he knelt down directly towards Zhao Changge in front of everyone, completely ignoring his status as emperor.
Zhao Changge looked at Zhu Houcong who was kneeling in front of him with a confused look on his face, somewhat confused.
"What kind of trouble is this? It's not the Chinese New Year yet. Even if you kneel down, I won't give you a red envelope."
Zhu Houcong rolled his eyes immediately, but since he was asking for help at this time, his attitude naturally had to be respectful.
"Master Imperial Master, you have the power to reach the sky and can travel through time and space. I have nothing to ask for in this life, but to worship under the Imperial Master and learn the art of immortality! I have been seeking the Tao all my life, but in the end I have never met a true person. Fortunately, I met the Imperial Master. Since the Imperial Master can travel through time and space, he must be a true immortal. Please give me a chance!"
Zhao Changge was a little embarrassed, co-authoring Zhu Houcong and treating himself as a god.
Although he did control the time-travel gate, this thing was just a plug-in. He didn't understand why it appeared on him. Everything started from that questionnaire, but later Zhao Changge never encountered anything other than the time-travel gate. What strange things, as for the art of immortality, there is a saying that he wants it himself, but is this realistic?
In the past, Zhao Changge didn't believe in immortals or gods, but the existence of this time-travel gate made him wonder if there really were any immortals in this world. Unfortunately, he had never encountered them.
Now Zhu Houcong wants to learn some immortality skills from him as his teacher. Haha, not to mention that Zhao Changge really doesn't know it. Even if he knows it, he won't teach it.
"Stop kneeling, get up. I really don't know the magic of immortality. As for the ability to travel through time and space, I only got it by chance."
Zhu Houcong did not give up: "Can the National Master tell me how to obtain this method of traveling through time and space? I don't want to give up as long as there is a slight possibility."
Zhao Changge's face suddenly turned cold. He had not encountered such a senseless person for a long time.
Zhu Yuanzhang's expression changed when he saw Zhao Changge at the side, and he immediately scolded Zhu Houcong: "That's enough! You've gone too far. No matter how Mr. Zhao obtained his abilities, this is his private matter. Just listen to what he wants to say." , but you can’t take the initiative to ask! If you continue to be presumptuous, we won’t mind killing you with my own hands.”
Zhu Yuanzhang's murderous intention was not fake, and regardless of the fact that they had been very close to Zhao Changge for so long, Zhao Changge's value in Zhu Yuanzhang's eyes was much higher than that of a descendant. This angered Zhao Changge, and the Ming Dynasty also To return to the original track, Zhu Houcong's behavior made Zhu Yuanzhang very angry. As emperors, who wouldn't want to have extraordinary abilities like Zhao Changge, but no one asked from the beginning to the end, but it was Zhu Houcong who This guy who was fascinated by Changsheng actually asked Zhao Changge so bluntly, no one would be happy if he changed it.
Although Zhu Houcong was confused for a moment, seeing the murderous intention radiating from Taizu's body did not seem to be fake, Zhu Houcong suddenly became timid.
Zhu Houcong was very aware of current affairs and apologized directly to Zhao Changge: "The Imperial Master, please calm down. I was confused for a moment. I hope the Imperial Master will not care about it. I am willing to compensate."
Zhao Changge sneered: "I don't care about your compensation. You have to understand that although you are the emperor of Ming Dynasty, you don't have much value in my eyes. I help Ming Dynasty because I appreciate Ming Dynasty's backbone and admire Lao Zhu's expulsion. The great achievements of the Tartars, as for who the emperor is, I don’t care at all, the Jianwen Dynasty can change the emperor, why can’t the Jiajing Dynasty?”
Cold sweat broke out all over Zhu Houcong's body. Before, Zhao Changge had always behaved like the big boy next door, which made people subconsciously lose their awe. Now, every word Zhao Changge said was like a sharp knife piercing Zhu Houcong's chest, making Zhu Houcong terrified.
Zhu Houcong was afraid of death, but he was even more afraid of losing his throne. If he lost his supreme power, what would be the point of immortality?
"National Preceptor! I was wrong. I was confused for a moment. I hope the Imperial Preceptor will not be angry. I am willing to accept any punishment."
Zhu Houcong's apology was very sincere. He knew very well that Zhao Changge's attitude was more important than the rest of the people present. If Zhao Changge was unwilling to take him to play in the future, it would be even worse than killing him.
Zhao Changge was very unhappy with Zhu Houcong's attitude just now, but now Zhu Houcong's apology was considered sincere, and he was not an unreasonable person, so he took a deep breath and took the jade belt directly from Zhu Yuanzhang's hand. Mercifully hit Zhu Houcong on the chest.
The crisp sound made Zhu Houcong's skin and flesh rip open, but Zhu Houcong remained strong-willed and remained silent.
"This is a lesson for you. If you make me unhappy next time, I won't be so easy to talk to."
Zhu Houcong forced out a smile: "Thank you, Imperial Master, for your magnanimity."
Physical pain is nothing. Although Zhao Changge denies that he has the art of immortality, in Zhu Houcong's view, the development of this later generation is much more advanced than that of the Ming Dynasty. From other people, he also learned that the medical treatment of the later generations is much better than that of the Ming Dynasty. Many times he knew that many diseases he believed to be incurable would not be worth mentioning in future generations.
Therefore, even if there is really no magic of immortality, establishing a good relationship with Zhao Changge can extend his life a lot.
Zhu Houcong, who recognizes the reality clearly, is very knowledgeable.
"Boy Zhao, if you still feel angry, don't be polite. You can vent your anger however you want. With us here, no one dares to gossip about you." Zhu Yuanzhang stood very firmly with Zhao Changge at this time. With him Sitting in charge, who among the others dares to say a word.
Zhao Changge shook his head. He knew that Zhu Yuanzhang was supporting him, but it didn't matter. He was not that stingy and would not let go just because of something.
Seeing that Zhao Changge did not seem to care too much, everyone secretly breathed a sigh of relief. They were really worried about what Zhao Changge would think of other people.
Everyone present glared at Zhu Houcong fiercely, blaming him for the current situation. Fortunately, Zhao Changge was generous, otherwise they would really kill Zhu Houcong to vent their anger on Zhao Changge.
