Ming Dynasty Road

Chapter 38

Zhao Yi didn't care about Wang Cheng'en's attitude, and said generously, "Can I just ask His Majesty some questions?"

"Bold, Zhao Yi, you are presumptuous, your Majesty will not tolerate it..." Wang Chengen was speechless by Zhao Yi's words. A courtier who did this is a serious crime. In order to prevent Zhao Yi, a daredevil, from being punished, Wang Chengen We can only suppress Zhao Yi first.

"Wang Chengen, step back, I am very interested in what Zhao Yi said, don't talk too much, Zhao Yi, tell me, I will forgive you for not guilty!" Zhu Youjian retreated Wang Chengen, and said with a smile like Zhao Yi .

"Thank you, Your Majesty, I dare to ask, do you have symptoms such as anxiety, insomnia, and memory loss?" Zhao Yi said generously.

"Well, I haven't slept very well, especially recently, I'm ashamed of the refugees everywhere!" Zhu Youjian said that the refugees looked very guilty.

"That's right, that minister is taking the liberty to ask your majesty, does your majesty sit all day, seldom exercise, eat little during the day, and have too much dinner?"

"Yes, I've been busy with political affairs recently, and the morning and afternoon dynasties are connected together. Only at dinner can I have time to eat more."

"Then I can be sure, I have boldly compiled a set of methods for your majesty to regulate your body, which can be divided into four parts: one is aerobic exercise, such as running, boxing, mountain climbing, etc.; the other is abdominal breathing, take a deep breath after relaxing the whole body , puff up the abdomen, hold it for a while and then exhale slowly; the third is to do gymnastics; the fourth is healthy recipes." Zhao Yi said one by one the four ways to relieve fatigue that he summed up in his previous life.

"Oh? I understand the first two, but what about the third and fourth ones, the gymnastics and acupoint massage?" Zhu Youjian asked suspiciously.

"It's like this. I created a set of gymnastics myself, which is responsible for strengthening the body. If your majesty is interested, I can offer you the method. The fourth healthy recipe is like this. Your majesty's body is exhausted due to long-term fatigue. Busy with political affairs, according to medical theory, it should be a great tonic, but your majesty's blood pressure is too low due to overwork, so it is not advisable to overdo it. Your majesty should eat more tofu, milk, fish, fruits and vegetables, and drink water in moderation! Slow down Slowly make porridge with red beans, longan and other things, and then slowly eat the tonic, the dragon body will be healthy."

The method Zhao Yi mentioned is a diet therapy method for patients who are chronically fatigued and extremely weak. First, learn some simple gymnastics, and then slowly eat some porridge and water to enhance the body's absorption capacity. Finally, use supplements Nourishing, the body will slowly recuperate.

Zhu Youjian smiled and said: "This method is strange. I can try it. Is the gymnastics you said easy to learn? I'm a little tired now, teach me!"

Zhao Yi stepped up and cupped his hands and said, "The minister will have the courage to practice it a few times, and your majesty can just watch it slowly!" After Zhao Yi finished speaking, he slowly practiced the gymnastics he created in front of Zhu Youjian step by step. After several times, it was confirmed that Zhu Youjian had written it down before stopping.

Zhu Youjian watched Zhao Yi finish the rehearsal, and found it very interesting. The gymnastics movements are not very large, and it is very easy to memorize them. Give me a try as well."

Wang Chengen couldn't help but said: "Your Majesty, acupuncture massage should be done close to the body of the dragon. If Zhao Yi harbors evil intentions, that's fine."

Zhu Youjian's face turned cold, and he said, "Presumptuous, did I let you speak?"

Wang Chengen was so frightened that he broke out in a cold sweat, and quickly knelt down to plead guilty.

Zhu Youjian ignored Wang Chengen, looked at Zhao Yi kindly and said, "How about this, you tell me which acupuncture points you need to massage, and let Wang Chengen record it."

Zhao Yi took advantage of the opportunity and said: "Your Honor." After Zhao Yi finished speaking, Wang Chengen had already taken out the pen, ink, paper and inkstone. Zhao Yi searched the acupuncture points for massage in his memory, and then began to talk about the acupuncture points and steps that need to be massaged. , and also mentioned some foods that are beneficial to Zhu Youjian's health, and Wang Chengen recorded them carefully.

After a while, hundreds of words appeared on the clean rice paper. Wang Chengen took the written record and presented it to Zhu Youjian for inspection. Zhu Youjian read it carefully.

"Okay, I will give it a try, Zhao Yi, you have to work hard when you enter Jinyiwei, and don't disappoint my trust in you, Wang Chengen, pass on the decree, Zhao Yi has made great achievements in Shengjing, and specially rewarded Zhao Yi with a flying fish Take it, okay, if there is nothing else, you can go back to take office, I have been busy all morning and I have to go to see the queen."

"I thank the lord Long En, and I will definitely not disappoint His Majesty's trust." Zhao Yi saluted again and bowed out of the hall.

*****
Out of the main hall, under the guidance of the little eunuch, Zhao Yi went out of the palace and went straight to the Qianhu office in Xicheng. When Zhao Yi returned to the Qianhu office, the official documents in the palace and the waist badge of Jinyiwei Qianhu were also issued. The most important thing is the flying fish suit given by the emperor. Liu Sili, who was in Fusi Yamen in Beizhen, was also waiting in the Qianhu Office in Xicheng. When he saw Zhao Yi, he showed an embarrassed smile. Sitting down, Yi carefully poured tea for Zhao Yi: "Master Qianhu, just now the Lord Zhenfu Envoy has ordered that your Qianhu Office is short of manpower and needs help, so I took the initiative to apply to come to the Qianhu Office in Xicheng. It has already been assigned, this is the personnel list, please Zhao Qianhu have a look."

Zhao Yi took a look at Liu Sili, before taking the roster in a hurry, and said with a smile: "Why did Liu Sili come to my West City on his own initiative? Aren't you working in the Fusi Yamen in Beizhen?"

Liu Sili immediately became more embarrassed, and apologized: "Sir, let me be honest, I have never been the confidant of Lord Zhen Fushi, so I have been excluded in Beizhen Fusi, this time I feel that it is an opportunity to follow my lord, So I took the initiative to surrender, and if there was any offense before, please forgive me."

Seeing that Liu Sili's words were sincere, Zhao Yi said indifferently: "Let's go with the past."

After Zhao Yi finished speaking, he began to look at the roster of the Qianhu Office in Xicheng. Although he was a Qianhu, there were not many people under his banner, only 260 people, and these people were all transferred from other households. Yes, most of the personnel are good and bad. Fortunately, Zhao Yi will not be picky. The majesty of the Jinyiwei does not depend on force, but on the flying fish suit and the embroidered spring knife. The captain of the knife, that one is not frightened.

The area under the jurisdiction of Zhao Yi is Xicheng, which is a relatively prosperous area, and the most prosperous of them is the commercial street in Xicheng. As the name suggests, this commercial street is a place where merchants from the capital gather. The trading volume on this street is astonishingly large every day, and many merchants spend a lot of money.

After listening to Liu Sili's brief introduction, Zhao Yi was overjoyed, and smiled slightly at Liu Sili: "Call everyone on the roster, and I will make a call myself."

Zhao Yi drank a few sips of tea, Liu Sili had already returned, and said: "My lord, the school captains have all been summoned, and they are gathering in the open space outside the house."

Zhao Yi nodded, and went out with Niu Yong. At this time, there were many Jinyi school captains gathered in the open space outside Qianhu Office in Xicheng, wearing Xiuchun swords. Seeing Zhao Yi coming out at this time, he didn't look very happy. Positively, one by one saluted Zhao Yi casually and sparsely, and said weakly: "I have seen Mr. Qianhu."

Zhao Yi saw it, and the majestic image of Jin Yiwei in his memory suddenly disappeared without a trace, and the arrogance and ambition in his belly were immediately dispelled. He glanced at these people and found that these captains were full of faces. Resentment, looks very unwilling to stay.

Zhao Yi coughed, and swallowed his well-prepared words. He gave them a simple reprimand, nothing more than doing his job well, then sent them all away, and then went into the guard angrily.

"Liu Sili, let me ask you, those captains seemed a little unhappy just now, do you know the reason?"

Seeing Zhao Yi's appearance, Liu Sili knew that Zhao Yi knew nothing about the guards, and Liu Sili felt that this was an opportunity to cash in.

Liu Sili cheered up and said: "My lord, the thing is like this. Originally, the oil and water in our Qianhu Office in Xicheng should be quite sufficient. Every year, the oil and water fished from the merchants in the commercial street can have tens of thousands of taels of silver. Thousands of households You can make a lot of money up and down, even a small captain can easily earn dozens of taels of silver a year. Because of this, the life of the captain in our west city is the best. But now..."

Liu Sili paused on purpose, and said, "But since the people from Dongchang slowly infiltrated into the commercial street, the life of the Thousand Households Office in Xicheng has become more and more difficult. To barely survive, the school captains of the other thousand households were all transferred from other guards. They used to have a few taels of silver every month anyway, but when they arrived at the Qianhu office in Xicheng, they could only sit and eat. Everyone I usually spend money lavishly, how can everyone live without oil and water? Mostly because of this, everyone is full of resentment."

Zhao Yi listened carefully to Liu Sili's words. Zhao Yi thought for a while and said, "The commercial street is so lucrative every year. Why do we give it up to Dongchang? The commercial street is not under our jurisdiction. It's okay to kick Dongchang out." That's it."

Liu Sili's expression changed and he said: "Your Excellency, you don't know. Now our Jinyiwei has long been worse than before. It's no problem for the school captain in the guard to go out and scare ordinary people, but there are countless wealthy families in Beijing. It hit the iron plate, but Dongchang is different, with the support of the admiral of Dongchang, Nine Thousand Years, so the commercial street, our guards must not touch it."

Only now did Zhao Yi understand why those people looked at him with such complicated expressions when he went to Fusi of Beizhen to report. The benefits and benefits were all taken up by Dongchang fanzi who had backers, but there was no money to earn. If I lived on a little money from the guards, who would serve me loyally.

Thinking of this, Zhao Yi resolutely said, "What if we insist on taking a share?"
