The story of Xiaohou Ye meeting the dragon

Chapter 26

The emperor got up to greet him, and the man bowed indifferently, and asked, "Your Majesty has been summoned, what is the matter?"

The emperor asked respectfully, "Your Excellency Xuanjizi, how are you?"

Xuanjizi said, "That's good, but I think you only have five years to live, so you should pay attention to enjoying your life."

The prince and King Cheng were shocked, the prince burst into tears, and King Cheng yelled angrily: "Monster nonsense!"

Xuanjizi said indifferently: "Life and death are determined, wealth and honor are in the sky, the destiny is like this, how can manpower change it, I am just telling the truth."

The emperor asked anxiously: "Could it be that I really only have five years to live?"

Xuanjizi nodded: "Not bad."

The emperor sighed: "If it is really the fate of the heavens, then we have to follow the heavens and live in peace."

The crown prince and King Cheng wept, "Royal Father!"

The emperor said sadly: "I have been in charge of the world for more than [-] years. I have done my best and made no major mistakes. Now the world is peaceful and the people are happy. My wishes are enough!"

The prince took a few steps on his knees, and said to Xuanjizi: "The Immortal Chief has insight into the secrets of heaven, and he must have the power to return to heaven. I also ask the Immortal Chief to enlighten me, how can I prolong my father's life?"

Xuanjizi said: "Birth, old age, sickness and death are human nature. Could it be that he is the emperor, so he can go against the sky?"

The prince continued to beg, the emperor said: "Get up, your filial piety is known to the father, but the elder has already said that life and death are determined, wealth and honor are in the sky, how can manpower force it, I am over sixty years old, and my destiny has been settled, You don't need to be sad." Then he asked Xuanjizi: "I don't know which son I should pass this great position to after a hundred years?"

The hearts of the crown prince and King Cheng suddenly rose to their throats, and they stared straight at Xuanjizi to see how he would speak.Xuanjizi didn't look at them directly, and said coldly: "Establish the head of the lineage, follow the laws of heaven, and keep the ministers in order."

The prince immediately breathed a sigh of relief, and King Cheng was also relieved. The matter that had been disputed for many years, once the dust settled, everyone was relieved. Because of the family relationship just now, neither of them deliberately refuted. Secretly feel strange.

The emperor nodded, and wondered again: "King Kecheng has the highest achievements and great talents in governing the country, why not choose him?"

Xuanjizi said: "People's hearts are really ignorant! Does the world need no one other than the emperor? How can a country of Nuoda be governed well by one person!"

The emperor had a sudden realization and said joyfully: "Sure enough, the elder fairy said it thoroughly! Then I would like to make King Cheng the one-word side-by-side king, and rule the world together with his elder brother, okay?"

Xuanjizi said: "Yes. But there must be a master and a master. The king and the king each live in peace and complement each other. One prospers and all prospers, one loses and all loses."

The emperor asked: "How can this be done?" King Cheng was made a side-by-side king, and his power was almost equal to that of the emperor. If the brothers do not get along in the future, it will become a hidden danger to the world.

Xuanjizi said indifferently: "Here is a talisman of the same fate. You give it to the two of them. From then on, two lives will become one life. One will prosper and the other will suffer." A yellow talisman appeared in his white jade-like hand.The crown prince and King Cheng stared at the talisman closely, their hearts fluttering.

Xuan Jizi slowly opened the talisman paper in his hand, there was no word on it, everyone was puzzled, but saw that he was chanting words, the breeze in the air blew, and countless tiny fluorescent lights appeared on the talisman paper, getting brighter and brighter , Twisted and twisted patterns slowly appeared on the talisman paper. I don't know what kind of characters it is, and it is hard to distinguish.

Everyone was stunned by this strange scene. Xuanji folded his palms together, bowed to the sky, and stretched out his hand to hand out the talisman. The emperor quickly took it, saluted and thanked him, and asked, "How to use it?"

Xuanji said: "Blood alliance."

The emperor then ordered people to bring the imperial wine for offering sacrifices to the heavens, cremated the talisman and melted it into the wine, and ordered the prince and King Cheng to go forward, stab each of them, take the blood and pour it into the wine, and then distributed the wine to the two of them. Let's drink together.

Xuanjizi said: "From now on, your two lives will be united as one, and cannot be separated. Take care of each other, so as not to harm the person with the same fate."

The crown prince and King Cheng were perplexed and looked at their father. The emperor wondered, "I don't know what the elder said about people with the same fate?"

Xuanjizi said: "We share honor and disgrace, so does pain." Seeing that the emperor was puzzled, he said coldly: "You drop wax oil on one of their hands and see how the other feels."

The palace people presented the candles, the emperor looked at his sons, the prince said: "I am elder brother, I am here." He took the candle with one hand, dripped the candle tears on the palm of the other hand, it was so hot that he trembled all over, but he saw Cheng Wang also The body trembled, and then his face changed drastically.

The emperor hurriedly asked: "How?"

Sweat broke out on King Cheng's forehead, he gritted his teeth, and after a while, he suddenly drew his sword and pierced his left calf. He only groaned, but the prince screamed, and fell to the ground, convulsing all over.The emperor was taken aback, and hurriedly asked someone to help him up, and asked in a loud voice: "What's going on? What's going on?"

The prince's forehead was covered with cold sweat, and he said in pain, "I don't know, it hurts so much! It's as if someone stabbed my left leg with a sword."

The palace people around King Cheng were in a hurry to bandage his wound. King Cheng pushed everyone away and came to the prince with a livid face. He uncovered his robe and rolled up his trousers. The cyan scar, although not broken, was very obvious. When he reached out to touch it, the prince cried out in pain, and said with tears in his eyes, "Aheng, why do you have the heart to stab yourself? Don't you know that brother will feel sorry for you?"

Ah Heng is King Cheng's nickname. He hasn't heard it for many years. When he first heard his brother call out, his heart suddenly became hot. When the prince saw King Cheng kneeling in front of his feet, he also remembered his childish and cute appearance when he was young. He tugged at the hem of his clothes and called, "Brother, brother." His heart felt sore, his tears fell on the back of Cheng Wang's hand, and burned to his heart. Cheng Wang hugged the prince's leg and burst into tears. The estrangement between the brothers has collapsed over the years, from now on, they are people with the same destiny, no need to say anything superfluous, they both know what to do.

The emperor wiped away tears with him, and all the palace people also shed tears. After a long time, the emperor helped his two sons up, and said with relief: "From now on, you should take care of yourself, and don't hurt yourself, that is, don't hurt each other. Remember, remember."

The prince and King Cheng nodded in agreement, Xuanji said: "The matter here is over, I have to go."

The emperor didn't dare to keep him, so he thanked him again. Xuanjizi didn't take any credit for it. After turning back to Bai Ling, he made a handprint and chanted a mantra, and saw that the white silk was in full bloom, and there seemed to be thousands of flowers in the air. It was hard to describe. The white light was so strong that it dazzled people's eyes, and they couldn't look directly at it. Everyone lowered their heads and looked sideways, fearful in their hearts. After a while, the white light disappeared, and there was no one behind the white silk. There was no trace on the ground or in the sky.

The emperor sighed: "Sure enough, the gods are among the gods."

All the people in the palace also agreed, and Xuanjizi became famous for a while, and it spread all over the capital and the north and south of the river in a short time. This is something.

One year later, the emperor Zen became the Supreme Emperor, and left Beijing to play and enjoy his old age.

On the side of the Marquis of Rongping, Zhai Xiaohou begged his uncle to adopt Xi Liang as his son and inherit the title of Marquis of Rongping, while he was leisurely wandering away from Beijing to play. Noisy and noisy, leaving a lot of anecdotes and anecdotes, and finally disappeared. Every time I mentioned the old people in Beijing, I missed them very much, and felt that they might be lingering in some scenic spot, and I was very envious.

After the emperor arranged for the two sons to go out of the palace, he hurried back to his bedroom, just as Zhai Xiaohou and Long Yin stepped out of the threshold, Zhai Xiaohou was holding a big bundle in his hand, and Long Yin was pulling his beard with one hand.

"Stop!" The emperor stared, "Where are you going?"

"Hey, of course we're going home after we're done." Zhai Xiaohou said confidently, raising the burden in his hand: "Hey, here are all the things you promised to reward the child, and I didn't take any more."

The emperor snorted, knowing that he would take nothing less, turned to Long Yin and said, "Where are you going?"

Long Yin threw away the long beard in his hand, touched his face that hurt a little from the glue, and said coldly, "Go back."

"Where are you going back? You are my son, and this is your home!" The emperor was a little anxious.

Long Yin frowned slightly, this old man was a bit annoying.

"Zhai Xi, you don't have to go out of the palace. I allow you to stay in Cangjia Palace and accompany Long Yin." The emperor knew that if Zhai Xiaohou was not around, his son would definitely not be able to stay, so he had to settle for the next best thing.

Zhai Xiaohou said: "Thank you very much, but my father is still waiting for me, and also waiting to see his son-in-law."

The emperor's eyes widened, Zhai Xiaohou hurriedly said: "You promised us, you will let us go after finishing this matter, you are not joking!"

The emperor had no choice but to say: "I didn't stop you, but Yin'er should stay with me for a few more days before leaving. You can also stay here. If your father misses you, I'll bring him too. How about it?"

Zhai Xiaohou laughed: "Then you might as well move our family into the palace!"

"It's not impossible." The emperor just looked at Long Yin, such a son who was like a celestial being, how could it be possible after only a few days, he still wanted him to accompany him for a long time to entertain his old age.

"Let's go." Long Yin stepped out, saw the emperor was about to cry again, stretched out his hand to lightly tap him, the emperor felt a slight pain on his face, and the tears disappeared without a trace, he couldn't help being surprised.

Zhai Xiaohou grinned and said: "You should save some effort, I have already used this trick to death, Long Yin's kung fu of tapping acupuncture points is superb, you can see the wounds on the prince's legs, it's just a small test . " There are also shape-changing, empty paper displaying characters, fluorescent flashes, phantom disappearing, these little tricks
