Chapter 1179： Emperor Jiajing

Chapter 1179 The Worried Emperor Jiajing

Beijing, Xiyuan.

Blue sky and white clouds, clear sky, blue waves rippling on the Taiye Pool, a group of white cranes hovering in the air, the royal palace with red walls and golden tiles is shining in the sun. Such a beautiful scenery, reminds us of a fairyland on earth.

Although the sun is shining, the atmosphere in Xiyuan is as gloomy and oppressive as if it were covered with dark clouds.

Eunuchs and palace maids all seem to have practiced the world's most extreme lightness kungfu, walking and doing things without making any sound, and all the servants are trembling and walking on thin ice, and they can't even hold their breath.

Without him, Emperor Jiajing was in a very bad mood today.

The "weather" of Xiyuan is not dominated by heaven, but by Emperor Jiajing. If Emperor Jiajing was in a good mood, the sky in Xiyuan would be clear; if Emperor Jiajing sneezed, the sky in Xiyuan would change;

Today, Emperor Jiajing was in a very bad mood, so the weather in Xiyuan was cloudy, and the court ladies and eunuchs walked on thin ice.

Actually, Emperor Jiajing has been in a bad mood recently.

The day before yesterday, I Da, the chieftain of the northern captives, led his troops to invade Datong again. Why the word "you" is used, because this is the fourth time that I Da has invaded Datong this year. This time, I Da led more than 3,000 cavalry to invade Datong and plundered Dayong, Weilu and other forts. The commander of the cavalry battalion, Qianshi Wang Gong, led his soldiers to resist the Alda tribe in Pingchuandun, but they were unable to catch up. Wang Qianshi and his subordinates were all killed on the spot. General Zhang Teng garrisoned troops to help Mabao, and was very close to Pingchuandun, the battlefield, but he was afraid of closing the base and not getting out. I Da then led the cavalry to the south from Gaoshan City and Zhuanyaoer, looting Shijing Village and other places in Huairen County wantonly.

If you want to rob it, you can rob it, and robbed it four times in half a year. My answer is that he regards the border of Daming as his own backyard!

Do you think the master Jiajing Emperor is bad?

Not only that!

In the past few days, the prefectures of Daming, Baoding, Hejian, Shunde, and Guangping in Beizhili have been flooded, and the fields have been flooded. The local officials in Beizhili submitted a disaster report yesterday, and the disaster is quite serious.

Floods in the north, the south is not idle, Nanchang, Linjiang, Ji'an, Ruizhou, Yuanzhou, Fuzhou, Ganzhou, and Nan'an prefectures in Jiangxi have suffered from drought. In the past year, there has been almost no rain. There is smoke in the drought, not to mention that the crops are not harvested, even the trees are almost dying of drought. The disaster reports submitted by Nanchang, Jiangxi and other places were only an hour later than those in Beizhili.

Flood in the north, drought in the south! Why is it raining so much in Beizhili? It would be great if you went to Jiangxi!

You say you are not angry!

Is Emperor Jiajing in a good mood? !

However, all of the above is foreshadowing, and it is not the reason why Emperor Jiajing is in a very bad mood today.

The reason why Emperor Jiajing was in a bad mood today was that he started refining a furnace of elixir at the beginning of the month. Today is the day to open the furnace to take the elixir, but in the morning, there was a strange smell from the elixir furnace.

The elixir is ready, it should be fragrant! There is a strange smell coming from the elixir furnace, which is not a good sign!

Emperor Jiajing placed high hopes on this batch of elixir, because the recipe of this batch of elixir is "Bagong Danfang".

What is "Ba Gong Dan Fang"?

Have you ever heard that one person attains Taoism and ascends to heaven? ! Liu An, king of Huainan in the former Han Dynasty, had two aspirations, one was to become an immortal by cultivating the immortal Huangbai technique, and the other was to rebel and become an emperor with different ambitions. For this reason, he recruited guests widely, while preparing for rebellion at all times, while cultivating immortality and alchemy. Among the disciples he recruited, Su Fei, Li Shang, Zuo Wu, Tian You, Lei Bei, Wu Bei, Mao Zhou, and Jin Chang were the most talented people. These eight people were famous alchemists at that time, and all of them were young and handsome. He is hale and hearty, and the world collectively calls him "Eight Dukes". Bagong gathered together to make alchemy, and finally practiced the elixir. On the day when the elixir was released, Liu An, the king of Huainan, rebelled against him. Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty sent Zongzheng to arrest him. Because of the haste, Liu An was in a hurry to eat the elixir. Many elixirs fell on the ground and were eaten by his chickens and dogs. The chickens and dogs that ate the elixir also flew up to the sky with Liu An. This is the allusion of "one person attains Tao, chicken and dog ascend to heaven".

The elixir formula that Emperor Jiajing refined this furnace of elixir was the elixir formula that Bagong used to refine elixir at that time—that is, "Bagong elixir".

This is a real fairy recipe! Any alchemy material used in this alchemy recipe is a rare treasure worth tens of thousands of gold.

Therefore, Emperor Jiajing placed great expectations on this furnace of elixir, but the peculiar smell coming out of the furnace this morning was like a basin of ice water, pouring the excited and anticipating Emperor Jiajing into the water. Feeling cold.

So, the "weather" in Xiyuan this morning is cloudy.

Therefore, all the maids and eunuchs in Xiyuan are trembling and walking on thin ice, lest they cause trouble to their upper body.

"Boom, clatter"

Suddenly, there was a sound of cases overturned and teacups smashed in Yongshou Palace. The two young eunuchs who were serving at the gate of the palace were so frightened that their hearts jumped out of their throats, and they looked at each other with pale faces.

They all knew in their hearts what happened in the palace. This would be the time for Emperor Jiajing to open the furnace to take the elixir. The sound of the table being lifted and smashed in the palace meant that the refining of the elixir had failed!

Actually, when the smell came out of the pill furnace in the morning, everyone knew in their hearts that this batch of elixir had failed.

However, because it is not time to open the furnace to take the pills in the morning, everyone still has a small hope in their hearts. This is the Bagong Dan formula. How can the previous alchemy formulas be compared with the Bagong Dan formula? The previous alchemy experience may not be applicable to the Bagong Dan formula. Maybe there is a strange smell when refining the elixir with the Bagong Dan formula. It's rumored.

Now, the other boot finally landed, the elixir really failed in refining, and Emperor Jiajing's hope was completely shattered.

At this moment, a young **** walked towards Yongshou Palace from the Wuyi Palace outside holding a memorial.

"What memorial is this?"

The two young eunuchs in front of the gate of Yongshou Palace asked with fearful faces like frightened birds.

Don't have any bad news!

The two little eunuchs prayed silently in their hearts.

However, the more worried and worried about something, the little **** holding the memorial replied in a low voice, "This is the report on the Japanese invasion in Taizhou. It is an urgent report from eight hundred miles away. Please don't delay it. The old man ordered the younger one to submit it to the emperor. The two passed on to Litong"

Japanese plague? !

Taizhou is troubled by Japanese? !

Isn't this killing us? !

The two gatekeeper eunuchs looked at each other with bloodless faces, and at the same time opened their mouths to say a silent sentence.

"You go."

"You go."

The two young eunuchs said in unison.

At this time, none of them wanted to enter the palace to communicate. They all knew in their hearts that Emperor Jiajing was angry at his failure in alchemy. Wouldn't it happen that Emperor Jiajing was angry when he went to pass at this time? ! Moreover, not to mention the anger of Emperor Jiajing, what is reported is the terrible thing of Japanese suffering!

Add fuel to the fire ah this is! The risk factor has doubled!

Going in at this time, it is almost like the wind is blowing, the water is cold, and the strong man will never return once he is gone.
