Chapter 925 Avoiding water droplets, cleaning and avoiding poison
At this time, whether it was Zhu Youxiao or Wei Zhongxian, facing this Taoist, they couldn't help but feel a sense of intimacy in their hearts.
Wei Zhongxian, in particular, found that this Taoist's attitude towards him was not as respectful as the scholars did on the surface, but was secretly rejecting him. Some Donglin Party members even dared to verbally insult him as a castrate and a castrate.
He also saw through the faces of those scholars. As their enemies, if there was no crime found in the court laws, the Qingliu would focus on attacking the morality of the political opponents. If they could not find any moral weakness, they would look for the other party to deal with it.
If there are any omissions in government affairs, those people will even privately spread the false accusations against the other party and forcibly arrange several trumped-up charges. Following what others say, it is inevitable that everyone will use their words to make money, and eventually force the emperor to bow his head, or political opponents take the initiative
Resign and give in.
But when it comes to him, Old Wei, this trick doesn't work. As a member of the lower class of the civil society, Wei Zhongxian values face very much, but he also knows how important it is to not be thin-skinned if you want to get along well.
Otherwise, he wouldn't have committed suicide and entered the palace when he was forced into desperation.
As a eunuch, there are no lazy people. He may not be able to enter the ancestral grave when he dies. He is used to being smeared and insulted. Will he still be afraid of others attacking him on a moral level?
Although he would be angry about this, the only thing he cared about in his heart was the emperor's trust, and everything else had to be put behind him.
Zhu Youxiao, Wei Zhongxian and Gao Jingfei talked in depth for several hours that day. It was not until it was almost dinner time that they reluctantly asked Gao Jingfei to leave, hoping to meet again tomorrow.
During this period, the emperor proposed the idea of canonizing Taoists, but Gao Jingfei rejected them.
It was just fine for him personally, but he didn't want the Huashan Sect to be like Wudang, tied to the fate of the Ming Dynasty.
"Although I am now working hard to save the fate of the Ming Dynasty in the future, who knows if I can really save it with my help. What if, as history knows, the Ming Dynasty will collapse in less than twenty years, then the entire Huashan Mountain will be destroyed.
Wouldn’t it be true that all the factions suffered along with it?”
"Then my previous and subsequent plans will be greatly affected, and may even fall short!"
So he just rejected Emperor Tianqi's kindness on the grounds that canonizing monks would harm the destiny of the Ming Dynasty.
Then he left the palace, looked at the sun that had not yet set, and wandered around various towns in the capital.
As the largest and most populous country in the world, the Ming Empire is also the only country that has preserved its ancient civilization. The prosperity of its capital is unimaginable to outsiders.
In particular, there are many shops selling various daily necessities, and shops selling various luxury goods that can only be enjoyed by powerful gentlemen are usually opened on more conspicuous streets, and unlike ordinary shops, they close early because during the Apocalypse period
The curfew is not strict, and some shops will be opened until around the night curfew before being locked, and some soldiers who patrol the city on carriages do not dare to stop some dignitaries from returning.
This also made it convenient for Gao Jingfei to come over to purchase goods. Unfortunately, it was evening and all the shops were basically closed. Only some places like Goulan Hall were still doing business behind closed doors. Gao Jingfei could only wait for the next day.
I will go shopping again tomorrow. After all, these ancient materials from the Reiki Age are relatively rare for modern people.
For example, products such as handmade naturally brewed sauces, vinegars, wines and special papers, as well as fine teas and delicacies from the sea, are difficult to find authentic products in modern times, and most of them are fakes, even if they are genuine.
Yes, the quality is definitely not as good as those produced in Shushan World.
After all, these materials are grown in a relatively high spiritual environment.
So that night, the news that a generous Taoist priest was sweeping up goods in the capital spread throughout some business circles in the capital, and it also cost Gao Jingfei a lot of extra money for his subsequent sweeps.
However, the price of modern silver is very low, and he has already obtained a batch through his relationship with the Public Security Bureau, so he does not care about the cost.
At noon on the second day, under the expectant eyes of Zhu Youxiao and Old Wei, Gao Jingfei appeared again in the palace courtyard.
"Can a real person have lunch?"
Zhu Youxiao was undoubtedly much richer than his younger brother Zhu Youjian. At least he had three meals a day in the palace, instead of Zhu Youjian who only had two meals a day for the sake of frugality. Those who lived frugally were sometimes not as frugal as some wealthy landlords.
However, governing the world does not rely on provinces, but on management and fighting, so Zhu Youjian is far inferior to his brother in this regard.
Gao Jingfei was polite to Tian Qi and Wei Zhongxian, and then waved his hand and set out a table of dishes.
These are all extraordinary delicacies he created based on the characteristics of his fairy forest. With the help of goblins and paper people, it doesn't take much effort to complete them.
After tasting the extraordinary food brought by Gao Jingfei, even the emperor Zhu Youxiao couldn't help but sigh:
“It’s really a delicacy from the immortal family, it’s so unforgettable!”
But Wei Zhongxian, an old man, said:
"I thought that all the gods ate dragon liver and phoenix marrow and drank fine wine! But ordinary dishes can be made so delicious. It is worthy of being eaten by the immortal family. There is also this novelty that has never been seen before. It's also
Let’s open our eyes!”
Because of the spiritual energy of extraordinary food, in addition to various beneficial effects, it can also give people a higher enjoyment in terms of taste. In addition, under the influence of the Yin God, Gao Jingfei's cooking skills have also improved to the same level as those of the cooking masters.
There are also many later generations' recipes that were not found in the Ming Dynasty. Such a delicious table quickly conquered the mouths of Zhu Youxiao and Wei Zhongxian.
After the table was removed, Gao Jingfei asked Emperor Tianqi about his physical condition.
Zhu Youxiao was very grateful and thanked him again:
"Thanks to the real person for saving me this time, I have taken the spirit spring three times and my health has improved. Now I feel even stronger than before I fell into the water!"
Gao Jingfei smiled and nodded:
"That's good, but your Majesty's body of gold involves the safety of the Ming Dynasty, and there are some things that must be guarded against. I have some treasures here to give to your Majesty, which can be used for self-defense!"
After saying that, he took out a transparent bead the size of a grape.
"This object is a water-proof bead. You can wear it with you or put it in your mouth. In times of crisis, you can breathe underwater. Once you enter the water, you can move freely like a fish."
As for the matter of being poisoned, Gao Jingfei took out another bracelet inlaid with several bright gemstones and crystals, and Kacha gave it to Zhu Youxiao.
"This object is called the Purifying Poison Avoidance Ring. It is the same as the previous talisman. It can not only detect whether the surrounding environment and the food at the entrance are poisonous, but can also activate a detoxification spell once a day. Your Majesty only needs to carry it with you to eliminate poisoning.
risk!"
Then he took out two metal bracelets with a slightly technological feel and handed them to the emperor and Wei Zhongxian respectively.
"These two bracelets are also magic weapons, similar to the Mohist machine creations. If someone attacks with bows, arrows, firecrackers, etc., the bracelets will automatically use defense to protect the owner, even if they hit a red barbarian cannon.
Protect His Majesty and the Governor from death."
"These four items are the self-defense items given by Qin to Your Majesty and Governor Wei."
These were all specially extracted by him at the Altar of the Heavens last night, specially prepared for Emperor Tianqi and Wei Zhongxian. The two bracelets are products from Fenrir's home mechanical universe. As long as they are worn, they will automatically
It extracts the owner's life information and binds it. When in danger, it will release two defensive measures: energy barrier and physical shield. As long as it is a secular weapon, it is basically difficult to endanger the lives of two people.
