Chapter Four Hundred and Twenty Seven: Rewards
Shouning Hou and others hurriedly saluted Zhu Houzhao. Zhu Houzhao smiled and let everyone calm down, and then smiled and said to Empress Dowager Zhang: "What is the Queen Mother doing?"
Empress Dowager Zhang is in a good mood now and smiles slightly, "The emperor is here just in time. Listen to Ye Chunqiu's defeat of the thief."
At this time, Zhu Houzhao seemed to be paying attention to Ye Chunqiu. Hey, this kid looked younger and his face was still childish.
Oh... Zhu Houzhao was suddenly excited because he saw the blood stains on Ye Chunqiu's clothes. This was blood, which was a proof of murder. Zhu Houzhao fantasized every day that he could kill someone and had some blood stains on his body. In terms of the thoughts of funny young people in later generations, this was called "cool".
His eyes lit up suddenly, but his face was serious, pretending to be a little interested: "Okay, I'm free, I'm just free, so just listen, Ye... My dear, please tell me."
Ye Chunqiu always thought this emperor was strange. How could he say it? Well, if he was not the emperor, this person would be a lunatic.
Well, Ye Chunqiu didn't dare to complain about anything in his heart, so he had to start from the beginning, talking about how he pretended to be the Supreme Ancestor. The thrilling moment of the period was enough to make people moved, but there were some things that made Queen Mother Zhang and Zhu Houzhao admire. Then he kidnapped the Supreme Old Mother and how to influence her. Here, Ye Chunqiu naturally did not dare to say too many details. Queen Mother Zhang was also a woman, but just said with a tense face: "Empress, Your Majesty, the student taught her the principles of saints every day. She was not happy at first, but then the students taught by words and deeds and even realized..."
Damn... This is OK, Zhu Houzhao squinted and felt that Ye Chunqiu was fooling him.
Influence... Have you teased me? I have been influenced by others for so many years and have never been influenced successfully. How can you influence people?
So Zhu Houzhao looked at Ye Chunqiu as if she had discovered Ye Chunqiu's little secret. This guy... is quite a thief, and he can even look righteous when he deceives people.
However, Empress Dowager Zhang nodded deeply. As a woman, she believed in this way. Empress Dowager Zhang also loves Buddha, so she likes the story of encouraging people to do good deeds, put down her butcher's knife, and become a Buddha on the spot.
When Cai Zhen and others gathered hundreds of people to attack Ye Chunqiu at night, dozens of muskets shot into the house together, Empress Dowager Zhang and Zhu Houzhao became nervous, Zhu Houzhao couldn't help but say, "What happened next?"
Ye Chunqiu said: "Your Majesty still remembers that the students said they wanted to refine alchemy?"
Zhu Houzhao said in confusion: "I said that, I thought you looked more like the Supreme Ancestor in order to win the trust of others, and just pretended to refine medicine."
Ye Chunqiu smiled and said, "Your Majesty, what materials do you need for this refining medicine?"
Zhu Houzhao was confused. Ask me, who I asked, I only took medicine, not refining medicine.
However, Zhang Heling, Hou of Shouning, has rich experience in cultivating immortals: "Oh, I know this, I'm elixir, what I have refined is sulfur, Zeng Qing, saltpeter, alum stone, talc, feldspar, asbestos, mica, lead mother, arsenic, salt, lime and other substances; in addition, Ganoderma lucidum, poria, jujube, raspberry..."
As expected, he was very professional. Ye Chunqiu sighed in his heart. He didn't expect that when he came to the capital, the first thing he did was to teach, but the storytelling was under the overpass. He was better off, so he came to Renshou Palace to tell the storytelling directly.
Ye Chunqiu said, "The problem lies in the sulfur, saltpeter and other substances. These are flammable or made-up gunpowder materials. Although I added some hidden things to the list required for refining medicine, such as poria, lime, mica, etc., these minerals such as saltpeter used to prepare gunpowder are also scattered in it. In this way, people can not notice it and relax their vigilance. When the students close the door, they naturally have sufficient materials to make-up gunpowder. When those people come in, the students flee into the alchemy furnace. Clear water and towels have been prepared in the furnace, and then the gunpowder is ignited. So nearly a hundred sect bandits have all blown up to the sky."
After a long time... the people in Renshou Palace couldn't come back to their senses.
They could imagine the process of this young man fighting wits and courage with these sect bandits, and they could understand that although Ye Chunqiu said it was very easy, there were even more countless crises on the front line of life and death. When Ye Chunqiu said that he had blown these sect bandits to the sky, everyone was slightly stunned. Zhu Houzhao immediately slapped his thighs: "Okay, it's good to blow it up. If he stabs them to death with one sword, it would be cheaper for them, and they should be left without their bones."
At the end, Ye Chunqiu deliberately said: "At that time, the Marquis of Shouning was almost kidnapped, and the students were fighting with seven or eight bandits, and they couldn't leave their bodies for a while. If it weren't for the supreme mother, I'm afraid that the Marquis of Shouning would have disappeared now."
Empress Dowager Zhang raised her eyebrows and said nothing. Zhu Houzhao listened with relish and was immersed in the fierce fighting just now.
After a while, Empress Dowager Zhang smiled and said, "Your Majesty has ordered Ye Yingxiong as the top scholar. Ye Yingxiong is both civil and military. This time you saved the Marquis of Shouning. The Ai family is very grateful. What rewards do you want? Even if you say that, the Ai family will accept it."
Zhu Houzhao narrowed her eyes and felt happy. Oh... Her mother's queen has always been very simple, and she is all foul-fighting with her father. Her father usually likes to wear old robes the most, and repeatedly makes Shangyiguan not be allowed to make new robes. She is very stingy even when giving rewards to others. She says that there is a famine and that the palace should not be extravagant. Therefore, the queen's mother usually lives in Renshou Palace very simple. Even if she often gets rewarded by her mother, she is only half a piece of silver cake or some ordinary jewelry.
Today, the mother and queen are very generous, and they don’t give them directly. They ask Ye Chunqiu how much she wants, and she is really proud.
Ye Chunqiu thought about it, but his face was tightened. He stood up and sat down, bowed and said, "Empress, students dare not take credit. If the Empress is sincerely willing to reward, the student will only ask the Empress to be great kind and virtuous, and spare the ignorant believers of the White Lotus Sect. They are blinded by the treacherous people. Many of them are good people, but they just take a wrong step. Now the army traps them. Since the bandit leader has been executed, the court wants to kill them all if the imperial army gives them a command. The Empress has a good life and must not want to see such a tragic scene. Why not let them go and give them a chance to reform themselves? I do not ask for rewards, but only ask for extra kindness to the Empress."
Zhu Houzhao listened, and her mind was a little dizzy.
He didn't ask for me, but went to ask for my mother.
Is this guy confused or his eyes too toxic, knowing what I say is not very useful?
Zhu Houzhao wanted to be angry but couldn't come out, but she couldn't laugh even though she wanted to laugh. She sat awkwardly, but looked at Empress Dowager Zhang.
