"The prison is tightly guarded, and Yixian can come here calmly. Judging from his methods, he must have obtained the true inheritance of the Taoist sect. Unexpectedly, the disciple whom I, Chen Qingzhi, regard as the successor of the mantle, has become a Taoist monk. The court is like this. The reality is pressing, and there is nothing you can do."
Under the tyranny of Emperor Tianqi, countless Confucian scholars and scholars were imprisoned, had their homes confiscated, escaped, and lived in seclusion. Therefore, Chen Qingzhi did not blame Ning Caichen at all for his choice. He knew that Ning Caichen must have come to rescue him. In such a chaotic situation, this intention alone was enough.
Chen Qingzhi looked away with emotion and asked: "What's the situation outside?"
Among the four disciples of Chen Qingzhi, the eldest is the thirty-six-year-old Li Ruoyu, followed by Lin Yun and Guan Xing. The age difference between these three people is only two or three years, and they have been with Chen Qingzhi all year round. The relationship between the three of them is much closer than that of Ning Caichen, who is ten years younger than them. Although the three of them are far inferior to Chen Qingzhi in terms of mentality, there is something extraordinary about them being able to become Chen Qingzhi's disciples.
So when Chen Qingzhi asked, Li Ruoyu and the other three all looked at Ning Caichen. Without him, it's probably because the situation in the court is related to whether they can truly escape from here.
Ning Caichen knew it well, and he said roughly at the moment: "The northwest of Daqian has been in ruins for a long time because of Li Fudong's rebellion, and the army was unable to pacify it. And the people from all sides in the Jiangnan area have also been in ruins under the cooperation of Zhang Lu and others. Preparing for an uprising, the capital is now in chaos and the imperial court is carrying out a full-scale suppression. Before the disciples came, they happened to see that according to the current situation, it would be very difficult for the imperial court to quell the turmoil in the capital. At least it would be impossible in the short term. ."
Hearing this, Li Ruoyu and the three of them looked happy. Under such circumstances, it is indeed the best time to leave the capital. Even if the imperial court suppresses the rebellion in Beijing in the future, facing the entire world that is out of control, there will probably be no manpower or time to hunt them down.
Chen Qingzhi's figure swayed, and he took a few steps back unconsciously. He put his hands on the wall and gasped for breath. His face, which had always remained calm, was pale, and his eyes were filled with pain and sadness: the imperial court he was loyal to had become corrupt. It has reached such a point that it is simply unbelievable. As the minister at the head of the Six Ministries, he knew the character and abilities of Emperor Tianqi very well. When things developed to the current situation, he clearly realized that the destruction of Daqian was irreversible. Even if Emperor Tianqi had the intention to turn the tide, it was too late now. What's more, Emperor Tianqi doesn't have this intention at all. He must be still in the dark at this time, thinking that the world is still under his control.
"Such a thing may be too late for others to be happy, but for Chen Qingzhi, who is loyal to Daqian and tirelessly giving everything for it, it is like a bolt from the blue.
"My late emperor, my late emperor, I can't help you." Thinking of the late emperor's instructions before his death, Chen Qing's heart felt like a knife piercing his heart. But what can he do now and what should he do.
Li Ruoyu was the oldest, and he immediately noticed the teacher's expression after being happy. As a disciple, how could he not know the pain and struggle in his teacher's heart. However, in the current situation, Daqian's crisis is no longer something that anyone can save. He knows the teacher's ability, but will Emperor Tianqi give the teacher a chance? The answer is obvious. Furthermore, throughout the ages, the world has been divided and reunited, dynasties have been replaced, and no one can break away from this barrier. Under the overwhelming general trend, it is inevitable that this decadent and declining dynasty will be buried with him.
Li Ruoyu said: "Don't you hear that if the king treats his ministers like hands and feet, then the ministers will treat the king like his heart and soul; if the king views the ministers like dogs and horses, then the ministers will regard the king as a countryman; if the king regards the ministers as grass and mustard, then the ministers will regard the king as a bandit. If so. The Holy One can be close to a virtuous minister and a villain, so naturally we should help the Holy One to bring order to things and bring peace to the world. But now, the teacher is in jail and has no time to take care of himself. Even if we have the intention to be afraid, we are powerless."
Lin Yun and Guan Xing are also smart people. With Li Ruoyu's words, they immediately realized that if they want to escape from prison, they must first persuade their teacher to stop them. Otherwise, if the teacher makes a mistake, it will be bad. The two said one after another: "The ancients said: When a country is about to perish, there must be evildoers. Now there are traitors in power, thousands of horses are in silence, the world is in chaos, and Daqian has long been hopeless. Even if the teacher can turn the tide, he must have this opportunity to do this. But ¡¡±
Chen Qingzhi smiled sadly, interrupted the two of them, and said, "I understand, I understand everything."
He said this, but the look of determination on his face made Li Ruoyu and the other two pale in color. The three of them had no choice but to signal to Ning Caichen frequently.
Ning Caichen¡¯s main purpose this time was to rescue his teacher, so he couldn¡¯t let his teacher be buried with him in vain. Although Ning Caichen despised the cowardice of Li Ruoyu and the others, it was human nature to be greedy for life and afraid of death. Besides, the ants live in vain, so who can blame them? Besides, he didn't have the heart to care about this at this time. He stepped forward and supported Chen Qingzhi. Only then did Ning Caichen realize that the teacher was smiling slightly all over his body.Shivering, it was obvious that his mood had been greatly fluctuated, and he couldn't help but hurriedly said: "Teacher, since recorded history, the world has been divided and reunited. If the union lasts for a long time, it will divide. If the division lasts for a long time, it will unite. The cycle goes on and on. This is the way the heaven and earth move. , it is beyond human power.¡±
Chen Qingzhi looked at the disciples silently. Although they all had their own plans, they were sincerely afraid that they would do something stupid. He sighed secretly, even his disciples looked at him this way, not to mention the common people who had already alienated themselves from the imperial court. That's all, it's better to go back here.
He calmed down his emotions, forced himself to smile and said, "You can rest assured that I am not a pedantic person, I am just a little emotional."
Li Ruoyu and the others were secretly happy that the teacher finally changed his mind. However, seeing that the teacher looked bad, he didn't dare to say anything more for fear of accidentally irritating him.
Ning Caichen also felt at ease at this moment and said: "This opportunity cannot be missed, it will never come again. The current chaos in the capital is a good opportunity to escape from this barrier."
With the general situation being like this, Chen Qingzhi also thought about it. He nodded and said: "That's fine, let's go."
Ning Caichen hummed, took out four wall-escape talismans from his arms, and photographed Chen Qingzhi and the others from the air. The halo on the talismans flashed away.
Li Ruoyu was surprised and asked: "Could this be a Taoist talisman?"
It was the first time for several of them to see Taoist magic with their own eyes, and their excitement was mixed with a bit of doubt. Of course, this thought will not be known to others.
Ning Caichen said: "Yes, this is the Taoist sect's authentic wall-escape talisman. As long as you have this talisman with you, you can leave here anytime and anywhere. Of course, this talisman is also time-effective. Without my magic power, at most It can last half an hour.¡±
Hearing this, Li Ruoyu and others couldn't help but eager to give it a try, and rushed towards the cell door. But the moment he hit the cell door, he stopped involuntarily. Although he knew that Ning Caichen did possess special powers, the fear still existed instinctively in his body.
Ning Caichen smiled secretly in his heart and ignored them and said directly to Chen Qingzhi: "Teacher, let's go."
Chen Qingzhi nodded and walked forward. Even if there was a cell door blocking his way, he did not hesitate and walked through it in an instant. Ning Caichen followed step by step out of the prison door. Seeing this, Li Ruoyu and the others couldn't help but blush on their faces, but they couldn't care less about being ashamed at this moment and followed closely without saying a word.
Li Ruoyu and the three of them looked at each other, only to find that each other's eyes were filled with shock and shame. For a moment, they didn't know what to say. They had no choice but to follow Ning Caichen and Chen Qingzhi silently.
PS: I¡¯m really sorry that I¡¯ve been disconnected for a long time. I hope everyone can still support the common people. Of course, I would also like to thank my brothers and sisters who are still voting for the common people until now.
