Chapter 212 Let me teach you how to write the word "loyal minister" (please subscribe)
Seeing Lu Fang received the oral order, he hurried out of the palace.

Jiajing finally breathed a sigh of relief and sat on the platform again.

I took a look at the prayer scripture that was originally placed on the side.

He picked it up and threw it outside the Taotai.

The palace was empty.

On the platform.

Jiajing's eyes were deep and long.

After a long, long time.

In the silent hall, a sneer was heard.

"immortal?"

"Humph."

After leaving Wanshou Palace, Lu Fang, along with the young eunuchs in the palace, rushed to Yan's Mansion without stopping.

There was movement in the West Garden, which had been in seclusion for several days.

Naturally, this immediately attracted the attention of those in Beijing.

Everyone's eyes followed Lu Fang to the Yan family in Yanfu Lane.

Yanfu.

The Yan family has been closed to visitors for quite some time.

Finally, a outsider walked in.

After Lu Fang found out the locations of the old and young masters of the Yan family, he stopped the young eunuchs who followed him and was taken to the back garden of the Yan Mansion by the Yan family's steward alone.

Just entered the back garden.

Lu Fang saw three lounge chairs placed in an open space in the middle of a rockery and trees.

The three generations of the Yan family, starting from Yan Song, all lay on the chairs, facing the rare sun.

A man in a Taoist robe, but...

Zhang Guoxiang's facial expression and behavior are really contrary to the spirit of a Taoist immortal.

He was wearing a Taoist robe and holding an incense burner and a palm-leaf fan in his hands.

The fan was fanning the incense burner from time to time.

then.

The smoke from the stove, which was similar to the fragrance of mugwort, enveloped the three generations of the Yan family, grandparents and grandchildren.

Lu Fang came closer and coughed lightly.

"Old Yan Ge."

"We are here to deliver the order from His Majesty."

As he spoke, Lu Fang glanced at the Taoist who was still fanning the incense.

Could this be the living immortal who lives in Yan Mansion and is known throughout the capital?
Is this what a living god looks like?

in this way.

It is not an exaggeration to say that it is disrespecting one's teacher and destroying one's ancestors.

The three generations of the Yan family, surrounded by smoke, were silent for a while.

However, it was Yan Shaoting who reacted first.

Yan Shaoting hurriedly sat up from the recliner, but he looked very tired. His face, which had turned rosy from the sun, turned pale in an instant.

He moved his dry lips, bowed weakly and said, "It turns out that it is Eunuch Lu who has come. Please forgive me, Eunuch Lu. Your Majesty has ordered us to come and meet you..."

Talking.

Yan Shaoting also coughed a few times.

He glanced at Zhang Guoxiang who was still fanning himself beside him.

This smoke is so damn suffocating!
Zhang Guoxiang ignored all this and just kept fanning himself with his head down.

For a while.

The smoke in the back garden grew thicker.

Lu Fang smiled awkwardly and walked forward carefully with his face turned sideways.

"Master Yan, Grand Master and Junior Grand Master, are you feeling better?"

Over there, Yan Song and Yan Shifan also seemed to have just discovered Lu Fang.

But the two of them seemed to be more seriously ill than Yan Shaoting and could only lie weakly in the chairs.

Yan Shaoting bowed towards the West Garden and said, "Thanks to the Emperor's blessing, I am much better now. I think in a few days, I will be able to return to the yamen to serve Your Majesty and our great Ming dynasty."

Lu Fang looked at him twice more.

This time, the three generations of the Yan family were indeed in much better condition than the last time when he brought the imperial physician here.

Then he nodded doubtfully, indicating his agreement.

Last time I did it myself.

That rascal.

The three generations of the old Yan family, a generation of four, seemed to be on the verge of death. It was so scary.

Now we can all come out and bask in the sun.

It can be seen that the disease has been stopped.

Lu Fang immediately asked, "I heard in Xiyuan that the situation in Lord Yan's mansion is improving. There are also rumors in the capital that there is a living immortal living in the mansion. Your Majesty's opinion..."

Looking at the appearance of the three generations of the Yan family, Lu Fang felt too embarrassed to say that he wanted to take the living immortal away.

What if I take the person away first?

hind feet.

The three generations of the old Yan family, grandparents and grandchildren, died together.

Isn't it my own fault?

Yan Shaoting seemed to have reacted and bowed in the direction of Zhang Guoxiang.

"There are no living gods in this world."

"If there really is a living immortal, it must be His Majesty the Holy Son of Heaven of the Ming Dynasty."

"It is fortunate that our Yan family had the presence of Master Zhang from the Heavenly Master's Mansion in Longhu Mountain as our guest. He used a secret method to rescue us."

"I have been getting better recently, and I originally wanted to introduce Master Zhang to Your Majesty. Now that Eunuch Lu is here, it's just in time."

Following Yan Shaoting’s introduction.

Lu Fang's gaze also shifted to Zhang Guoxiang, whom she had previously suspected.

Seeing this, Zhang Guoxiang finally stopped fanning and put the palm-leaf fan and stove in a corner aside.

This thing.

You're fanning yourself and you're suffering too!

Zhang Guoxiang put down the palm-leaf fan and stove, and immediately bowed and said, "I am Zhang Guoxiang from the Taoist Temple."

Lu Fang sighed softly in his heart.

Then he said, "Since you are indeed the living immortal that is being told in the capital, please follow me into the palace to meet His Majesty."

Zhang Guoxiang glanced at Yan Shaoting.

Yan Shaoting smiled and said, "Your Majesty actually summoned the Immortal in person. This is a great thing. If the Immortal can accompany the Holy Saint in Xiyuan, the Tianshi Mansion will also be considered to have contributed to His Majesty and the Ming Dynasty."

Say it.

Yan Shaoting turned and looked at Lu Fang again.

"What do you think, Eunuch Lu?"

Lu Fang glanced at Yan Shaoting and felt puzzled.

This kid.

Why does it feel like he's waiting for me?

But he smiled and nodded, saying: "Since I have been in the capital for a while, I have been called a living god by the people of the capital. I will definitely be favored by His Majesty if I enter the palace today."

Zhang Guoxiang then nodded and said, "Please wait for a moment, eunuch. I will go wash and change clothes before seeing you again."

Lu Fang naturally nodded in agreement.

When meeting the emperor, you still have to be polite.

While Zhang Guoxiang was washing up, Lv Fang came to Yan Shaoting, and the servants of the Yan family immediately brought a stool. Lv Fang sat down with a swagger, looking at Yan Song, Yan Shifan, and Yan Shaoting in front of him.

"The health of the elder and the young elder has improved a lot, right?"

Yan Song smiled and nodded slowly.

Yan Shifan bowed and said, "Thank you for your concern, Eunuch Lu. I am much better now. I can still serve Your Majesty for another fifty years!"

Lu Fang nodded with a smile.

"It's good to be well."

"Your Majesty has been worried about the health of the people in the palace these days."

Then, Lu Fang looked at Yan Shaoting.

I respect Yan Song, firstly because he is old, and secondly because Lord Yan has always been polite and courteous to me in all his dealings with me over the years.

As for Yan Shifan.

That was entirely out of respect for Lord Yan, and also because Yan Shifan would always send some things to the palace during the four seasons and five festivals of the year.

Let’s talk about Yan Shaoting.

This is purely treated as one's own children or nephews.

Lu Fang thinks.

The master probably holds the same view sometimes.

He smiled and said, "The tutor has to get better soon. There are still many things in the court waiting for the tutor to take care of."

Yan Shaoting hummed, "Master Zhang also said today that as long as my grandfather, father, and I take medicine for three more days and get some sun, we will be able to leave the house and go back to the court to work."

Lu Fang nodded and said, "You have to get well soon. The student who teaches at the Imperial Observatory has submitted another memorial, saying that there may be a heavy snowstorm in the capital this winter. The court must not allow anything to happen."

Zhou Yunyi's memorial was naturally submitted by Yan Shaoting on the same day.

Yan Shaoting just smiled.

At this time, Zhang Guoxiang had already washed and changed his clothes and walked back.

Lu Fang looked over.

Now let’s look at this real person from Tianshi Mansion.

That's a real one.

Taoist and immortal style.

Just a glance.

He looked like an otherworldly and enlightened person.

Lu Fang was delighted and smiled: "Since the master is ready, please follow me into the palace."

Zhang Guoxiang held a whisk in his hand and made a Taoist gesture.

"Good."

then.

Lu Fang walked in front and Zhang Guoxiang followed behind.

The two of them walked out of Yan's house.

Wait until the two of them walk to the gate of the courtyard.

Zhang Guoxiang, who was left behind, suddenly turned around.

He stretched out his right index and middle fingers towards Yan Shaoting and made a V sign.

Look at this guy, he has already learned this skill in just a few days.

Yan Shaoting immediately smiled.

Return the gesture.

When only the three generations of the old Yan family were left in the garden.

Yan Shifan looked at the old man and his son.

Yan Song narrowed his eyes and lay back down on the chair.

"Three days of sunshine."

"Let's go out and attend the court."

……

In the next three days.

All kinds of rumors were spreading in Beijing.

Some people are saying that recently the governor of Shuntian, the eldest son of Lord Xu, has been in high spirits in Miyun recently, giving money to everyone he sees.

Some people said that Lord Yan and his family were finally cured of their serious illness thanks to the magical skills of the living immortal.

Some people also said that the emperor invited the living immortal who lived in Yan Mansion into the palace, and it was rumored that he might restore the title of Grand Heavenly Master to the Heavenly Master Mansion in Longhu Mountain, Jiangxi.

There are many rumors and different opinions.

But it can't be hindered, three days later.

Xiyuan conveyed an order to the cabinet to discuss the matter of Yan Maoqing, the Left Vice-Chief Censor of the Censorate and the Imperial Commissioner for the Lianghuai Salt Tax and the Southeast Commercial Tax, returning to the capital with silver this time.

Autumn morning.

Although the sun has risen, fog is still lingering in the low-lying areas.

Outside the Wanshou Palace.

The Taiye Lake was shrouded in mist, and only the cry of cranes could be heard coming from the hazy water surface.

Several carriages stopped in front of the palace gate one after another.

Lu Fang was waiting outside early.

Xu Jie, Gao Gong, Yuan Wei and the six ministers were waiting here.

The carriage with the Yan family's flag arrived last and stopped in front of the Wanshou Palace.

Yan Shaoting supported Old Yan and got off the carriage with a cough.

Immediately a group of people gathered around.

In addition to the three people in the cabinet and Lu Fang, there are the six ministers.

The newly appointed Minister of Personnel, Guo Pu, was also among them.

He saw Yan Song, who had been sick at home and even had rumors in the capital that he might not live long, appear before him in all reality.

Everyone congratulated him one after another.

It's just that deep down, they are probably different.

Xu Jie smiled and said, "The elder has finally recovered. It has been much more difficult to handle matters in the court these days since you have not been in the cabinet."

Yan Song just glanced at Xu Jie and said with a smile: "The old man is getting worse and worse. I will have to rely on you in the future."

Yan Shaoting had a kind expression on his face and looked deeply at everyone present.

Finally it fell on Xu Jie.

He bowed and nodded towards Xu Jie, clasping his fists and saluting: "Lord Xu."

Xu Jie smiled and nodded: "Runwu's body is getting better, that's good, that's good!"

Yan Shaoting smiled wryly and said, "I am ill at home, but I heard that there are some treacherous officials in the court. I am worried about the country and dare not neglect state affairs due to my illness for a long time."

This statement came out.

Everyone present, including Xu Jie, couldn't help but change their expression.

This hasn’t even entered the Wanshou Palace.

Just started fighting?
Yan Shaoting, however, remained expressionless and smiled.

Under his smile, his eyes never left Xu Jie.

Nowadays.

Let me teach you, Lord Xu.

The word "loyal minister".

How is it written!
