Chapter 1,200 Yan Shifan followed the Heavenly Master to learn to cultivate immortality?
"With long swords and big bows, I am sitting on the east side of the Yangtze River. Cars are like flowing water, horses are like dragons, and I can see the mountains and rivers in my sight. A group of flutes, pipes, and incense are sent by the wind, and thousands of people hold banners and auspicious clouds. The heights of Sutai are covered with brocades. Guan will stay in the palace tonight..."
Jiuye was sitting in the concierge, humming "Beizui Taiping" with a leisurely attitude.
His previous life could be said to have been the same or muddled, but it was boring anyway.
However, after getting rid of the evil, and following the new master, this life became more interesting.
Just as he was thinking about whether to watch the joke of Mr. Xiao Ge again tonight, Jiuye raised his ears slightly and straightened his waist immediately.
A long motorcade came from the street entrance, and the eight-carrying sedan in the middle was extremely eye-catching.
Without looking at the people inside, Jiuye knew who was coming just by the restless and arrogant aura.
"Did you come to the door?"
The Ganoderma lucidum's expression changed slightly, as if she was panicking about being caught doing something bad, so she took the initiative to greet him.
The curtain was opened, and Yan Shifan stepped down from the sedan chair. He raised his head slightly and looked at the plaque of Tianshi Mansion with complicated eyes.
Didn't you expect that one day, you would actually beg this person?
He didn't even look at Jiuye who came up to him.
However, a steward from the Yan Mansion stepped forward and said, "Please tell Heavenly Master that my young master is here to visit!"
Seeing this posture, Jiuye calmed down and grinned: "If you come to visit without a greeting, my master may not see you!"
Yan Shifan then looked at the somewhat strange-looking concierge and smiled coldly: "The Heavenly Master is the chief minister of religious affairs. As the minister of the Ministry of Industry and a third-rank official in the imperial court, I was attacked by evil spirits.
There is no need to delay, how can we still practice ordinary etiquette?"
"I heard that Hu Zongxian was in the southeast at that time. He came to visit and waited for three hours. I want to see how long Master Li Dazhen asked me to wait. Go and report!"
Jiuye clenched his fists, wishing to punch that arrogant face, but he finally endured it, turned around and entered the house, and came outside the study: "Master, Yan Shifan came to visit, saying that he was bewitched and wanted to get help. His attitude
Quite arrogant.”
Although Li Yan was immersed in the water test, he was also aware of the situation in the outside world. He discovered the group of people who came outside the house with great fanfare, and responded calmly: "Go tell Yan Shifan that there is no evil aura on him, so there is no need to be suspicious.
, control the environment with the mind, and it will have its own effect."
The Great Earth Talisman is indeed not a magic spell, and it will not be effective permanently. If you treat it with peace of mind, after a period of time, the little brother who ran away from home will return.
However, Li Yan estimated that with Yan Shifan's temperament, he would not believe it. If the time came to distract him, it would cause headaches for everyone in the Yan party.
It's a way to treat the symptoms rather than the root cause. You can't ask for too much, so that's enough.
Sure enough, when Jiuye conveyed his words, Yan Shifan didn't believe it at all. He raised his eyebrows and stubbornly insisted on his own opinion: "It seems that things in the capital cannot be hidden from Li Dazhen, but this statement is too perfunctory. I am not sick, but in the middle."
The evil method is difficult to cure with medical skills. The only person in the capital who is knowledgeable about medicine and is a practitioner is Li Dazhen!"
There is no longer any response from the government.
Yan Shifan continued to speak loudly: "Master Li Dazhen can even cure immortals, but he is unwilling to rescue him out of the sake of his colleagues? Isn't it true that I have to sit back and watch our Ming officials being harmed by traitors? Isn't it worthy of being called a heavenly master?"
?Disappoint His Majesty’s grace?”
The house was still quiet.
Yan Shifan saw that the other party did not accept this trick, his eyes moved and he clapped his hands.
He saw a group of servants from the motorcade pouring out, carrying seats and equipment, and setting them up outside the house. Yan Shifan sat on them, raised his hand and sipped a cup of tea, as if he was done with it.
Faced with this rogue energy, Jiuye was a little helpless, but he did not go back to report. He returned to the concierge and lay down comfortably.
Li Yan in the study, on the other hand, could hear the movement outside, but remained indifferent, without even raising his head, and continued to be immersed in his own practice.
"This person really doesn't want to be soft-hearted!"
A few hours later, seeing the sun going down and the house still quiet, Yan Shifan squinted his eyes, knowing that the methods he used to deal with those moral gentlemen would not work on this person, and he could only recruit one confidant:
"Go and invite Governor Lu here."
At this time, I cannot step down, nor can I step down, so I can only ask Lu Bing to come out.
With Jin Yiwei's control over the capital, such turbulent tossings had already reached Lu Bing's ears, but the governor was unwilling to show his face.
But Yan Shifan went all the way to invite him, but he really had to show up. He slowly arrived in front of the house and sighed: "Donglou, why are you doing this? If you hand me a greeting card, will Tianshi Li not see you?"
Yan Shifan pretended to sigh: "I was plotted by a gangster, and I am very anxious. I am indeed rude. I hope Brother Donghu can forgive me... But this matter of human life and fate cannot be delayed!"
Lu Bing and Yan Song were in an alliance, and he and Yan Shifan were sons and daughters. He did not want to antagonize the father and son, but he was even more unwilling to embarrass Li Yan, who had unfathomable methods to save his life: "I can't help you with this matter!"
Yan Shifan said in a deep voice: "You and I have been friends for more than ten years. Now my life is hanging by a thread. Why don't you want to help your brother?"
Lu Bing couldn't laugh or cry: "It's not that serious, it's just...ahem!"
Yan Shifan said solemnly: "I am definitely not being alarmist. Doctors and Taoist priests in the capital have searched all over, but they are all at a loss. How can this be explained by a small illness?"
"The person who is secretly plotting the murder is probably observing me. Once I am really difficult to resolve, he will definitely use other vicious methods. At that time, everyone will be a knife and a fish for me!"
"This matter has also caused quite a stir. Does Jin Yiwei have any clues about the culprit?"
Lu Bing frowned and his face became serious.
After this incident came to his ears, he indeed sent the Jin Yiwei to investigate. After all, Lu Bing was not only the head of the Jin Yiwei, but also the left governor of the rear army governor's house, controlling the safety of the capital. If a minister of Yan Shifan's level was really assassinated,
, he cannot escape responsibility...
Speaking of this, Lu Bing took a deep breath and stepped forward: "Excuse me, Lu Bing is here to visit."
Jiuye entered and walked out quickly: "The master has something to say, please invite Governor Lu to come into the house. Mr. Yan is not worried, so he will come with him."
Yan Shifan snorted: "As expected, Brother Donghu still needs to come forward!"
Lu Bing smiled bitterly and shook his head: "You! You... go and get the package!"
The second half of the sentence was addressed to Jin Yiwei who was following him. Soon a package was handed over. It was the Tripitaka Sutra that Jin Yiwei had been searching for all over the place during this period.
Lu Bing was equally considerate in his work, and he also considered how to deal with it.
Offering scriptures is undoubtedly an effective means of alleviation.
Yan Shifan knew that by doing this in front of him, he meant to repay the favor he had done to Tao Zhongwen.
The two important ministers in the court, with a tacit understanding of each other, finally entered the Tianshi Mansion.
Looking at the desolate and deserted place, most of the courtyards were dark and uninhabited, Lu Bing looked sideways, and Yan Shifan said: "If I lived in such a courtyard, I would have been singing and dancing with chimes and silk bamboos. Let's make peace.
Qingliu will be ashamed to see what Li Dazhen is doing!"
Lu Bing frowned and said: "Mr. Xiao Ge, if you still speak like this, please forgive me for being with you!"
He heard the malicious intent in these words.
Qingliu still had a positive image at this period in history.
He commented on current affairs, wrote letters, impeached ministers, criticized eunuchs, and advocated rectification of laws and disciplines. The most representative of them was Hai Rui, who was righteous, upright, clear about right and wrong, and dared to give advice.
Fifty years later, the Donglin Party claimed to be a Qingliu, but it deviated from its purpose and became obsessed with party disputes. It became a weak scholar who was politically naive, military amateurs, and only good at empty talk.
What used to be "pure" has become "the harm of clear currents".
In the current court, Jiajing likes to use turbidity, but also retains Qing. Although the strict party is at its peak, it cannot be said to be the only one. There are still many officials who are anti-strict, and those who are unwilling to join the trend are naturally Qingliu.
When these words spread, the Qingliu civil servants who were not very fond of Taoist Celestial Masters would certainly not have a good impression.
Yan Shifan was simply used to being a bitch. Seeing that Lu Bing was really unhappy, he comforted him and said, "Brother Donghu, don't be angry. I'm just expressing my feelings. I will never make it difficult for you later."
Lu Bing shook his head and followed Jiuye's steps.
When the three of them came to the study, they saw a fresh and graceful figure standing there under the candlelight: "Captain Lu, Minister Yan!"
Lu Bing stepped forward, saluted, and presented the package: "Sir, these are the scriptures that I have found recently, including three volumes of "Buddha's Prayer Sutra" and one volume of "The Sutra of Dimensional Consciousness."
Li Yan's eyes fell on the "Dimensional Consciousness Theory Sutra" and he nodded and took it: "Thank you very much, Governor Lu."
After a brief exchange, Lu Bing stood aside and indicated that it had nothing to do with me. Yan Shifan took over the conversation and said, "It's presumptuous to come here, but doctors have a parent's heart. Master Li Dazhen has never forgotten the responsibility of Taoist medicine, and he doesn't even think about it."
Will blame."
Li Yanping said calmly: "You don't have to be like this, Sir Yan. Regarding your symptoms, I have just made a judgment that they are not caused by witchcraft."
Yan Shifan raised his eyebrows: "Doctors pay attention to seeing, hearing and asking questions. How can you know the cause of my illness without even meeting Li Dazhen?"
Li Yan said: "What I recognize is the mechanism of qi. What Yan Shilang feels should be the calamity caused by the filth of heaven and earth. I have never practiced it, so I don't know."
Yan Shifan was stunned for a moment, then he reacted very quickly and his expression suddenly changed: "What did you say? Doom?"
Lu Bing thought for a while and realized the importance, and thought to himself: "I'm actually waiting here. Yan Shifan is probably going to fall into trouble!"
If it is a disease, it will be embarrassing at most. If it is magic, the strict party will be challenged. And if it is a disaster, then the relationship is too great...
The key lies in Jiajing.
He was an extremely superstitious Taoist emperor. He would not let his ministers enter the monastery where he practiced, for fear of being contaminated by bad luck and affecting his practice. If Yan Shifan was rumored to have been invaded by calamity, he would probably lose his favor in a short time!
Naturally, Yan Shifan couldn't accept it and sternly refuted: "Nonsense! Nonsense!"
Li Yan said: "This is my judgment. If Mr. Yan doesn't believe it, he can ask someone else to do it. Although the aura of calamity is elusive, there will eventually be traces to follow."
Yan Shifan was really planning to invite someone with advanced cultivation, but after hearing these words, he became wary and his eyes flashed rapidly.
The purpose of his trip was very clear: to cure illnesses and drive away evil spirits, and then to use the other party's hands to catch the murderer to ensure his own safety in the future.
The Celestial Master, the head of religious affairs, does have this kind of responsibility, and it gives him a different kind of pleasure to have his political opponents heal him.
As for taking the opportunity to cause harm...
The big fanfare just now was just to let the concerned people in the capital know that if I really had a problem in Tianshi Mansion, tomorrow my old father, who was nearly eighty years old, would fall at the door!
Unexpectedly, before he could rely on the other party, he would already be defeated by an army. Yan Shifan was anxious and wise, and slowly said: "Master Li Dazhen just said something, I have never practiced, so I don't know?"
Li Yan said: "That's true. What does Yan Shilang mean?"
Yan Shifan said in a deep voice: "I have only heard of disasters befalling cultivators before, but no mortals have ever suffered disasters. If it is true what Li Dazhen said, if I am troubled by disasters, does it mean that I have the qualifications to practice?"
Lu Bing had a weird expression when he heard this, but he had to admit that this guy was indeed a genius, and his counterattack ideas were so unique.
Li Yanze stared at the past, and his eyes gradually became interested: "Shilang Yan does have some ideas. If you want to learn from the masters, you can choose from the various sects of Taoism and Buddhism."
Yan Shifan smiled and bowed his hands: "Why abandon the near and seek the far? Now that we are here today, it is fate, and I hope the great master can give me some advice!"
Jiuye was secretly stunned. He didn't expect that this person was so shameless. He actually wanted the master to teach him?
Lu Bingze knew that this hand had indeed regained the initiative.
More importantly, Yan Shifan also found a high-sounding reason for his behavior and blocked the cause of the disaster: "When the great master teaches me the method of practice, I will be able to explore the disaster for your majesty in the future. If I can help
I am the forerunner of the immortal path of the great emperor of tomorrow, that is the glory of my life!"
When he finished speaking, the room fell silent.
After a while.
Li Yan said: "Shilang Yan is extremely intelligent and his desires are far beyond ordinary people. I am also a little curious about whether he can make any achievements in practice. If you have this intention, then let's stay."

…
In Xiyuan.
Jiajing was walking with his hands behind his back.
First, we played by the Taiye Pool and watched the fish, then we went to the Nine Dragon Wall to admire the bamboos and flowers, and then we had a drink on Qionghua Island.
After a lap, I really felt relaxed and happy, forgetting my worries.
The Great Ming Dynasty said sincerely: "What the Heavenly Master said is indeed true. After meditating in the monastery, you should also go out and walk around."
Lu Fang, who was following behind, smiled and said, "Master's complexion is getting better and better!"
"If I am completely undisturbed by worldly matters, how far will my cultivation level reach?"
Jiajing raised the corner of his mouth, thinking that he had just made another batch of elixirs, and with his increasingly mature techniques, the color was round and flawless. He suddenly felt that his Taoism was getting better and better, whether it was the inner elixir method or the outer elixir method.
, all have the qualifications to become immortals.
Under the influence of the beautiful scenery of Xiyuan, I actually had some thoughts of stepping down from the throne and focusing on practicing...
But thinking of Prince Zhuang Jing and Princess Chang An who had become ghosts, as well as Prince Yu and Prince Jing who were fighting endlessly, Jiajing shook his head and sighed softly: "It's a pity, it's a pity, I don't have that blessing!"
Lu Fang had been with Jiajing for decades, and sometimes she knew him better than Jiajing himself. She knew that this master would never give up his power, so he whispered: "Master accepts blessings from all directions, and everything will go as planned."
!”
"You don't understand, how can things in this world be perfect? I have already received great blessings, but some things cannot be forced upon me..."
Jiajing smiled and waved his hands. As expected, he then asked about the state of government affairs: "Have you had any troubles lately?"
Lu Fang said: "Master, please rest assured that everything is fine. There is also a happy event in the cabinet. Mr. Yan Ge and Mr. Xu Ge are getting married!"
Jiajing's smile changed slightly, becoming less sincere and more twisted like a smile but not a smile: "That's a good thing, should I also follow the gift?"
Lu Fang lowered her head.
Historically, Yan Song and Xu Jie fell apart not long after they got married. Xu Jie's granddaughter didn't even have a formal marriage before the story of her being forced to kill her came out.
But now it was many years earlier, but Jiajing was not happy. Yan Song's power had surpassed the previous two chief ministers Zhang Cong and Xia Yan, and he actually married another pavilion elder. This was to firmly control the outer court.
In hand?
He has never believed in the concept of the land. Could it be the royal ministers? The imperial court is nothing more than a few palaces and a few yamen. The food will definitely be eaten in separate pots. When the time comes, more and more food will be eaten in Yan Song's bowl. This court
Isn’t the game out of balance?
Jiajing's good mood disappeared, and his pace became a little faster, but after walking for a while, he returned to the original rhythm.
He was very satisfied with what Yan Song had done since he became the chief minister, especially his style of putting himself first. Plus, with Lu Bing watching over him, he was not afraid that the outer dynasty would lose control.
, by arresting a group of officials, everyone will know what a strict Party is, and it can correct the atmosphere of the ruling and opposition parties.
So he was unhappy, but he didn't really do anything. Jiajing's expression returned to calmness and he put the matter behind him.
Lu Fang observed his master's expression and continued: "Mr. Xiaoge is also ill. He gathered famous doctors from Beijing and invited many Taoist priests to exorcise evil spirits..."
Jiajing asked curiously: "What disease does he have?"
Lu Fang explained carefully: "It's a hidden disease..."
Jiajing's brows raised when he heard this, and he was a little gloating: "I have more than twenty concubines, I'm afraid you are overworked?"
The number of his harem was definitely among the best among the emperors of the Ming Dynasty. He was in poor health when he was young, and he was good at this. In fact, both Shao Yuanjie and Tao Zhongwen had practiced elixirs in that area, but they didn't care about it until recent years.
After all, in order to cultivate immortality, one must stay away from many desires.
Compared with eternal life, what are those things?
But the key is yet to come, Lu Fang continued: "Doctors and Taoists are unable to do anything. Mr. Xiao Ge went to find Master Li on the grounds of being possessed by evil spirits. Under the recommendation of Governor Lu, he is now staying in Tianshi's Mansion."
Jiajing's eyes narrowed: "What is he going to do?"
Lu Fang said: "He is learning the method of cultivation from Master Li."
Jiajing didn't even have a fake smile this time, and his face immediately darkened.
Do these father and son and in-laws form an alliance to win over the Heavenly Master? Do they want to kill all the important officials in my court?
Especially Yan Shifan, how dare you live directly in the Tianshi Mansion?
