My father is Jiajing

Chapter 128 The Taoist Priest's Medical Miracle

A piece of music composed and written by Zhu Zaigui, which was plagiarized, sounded.

The drum beats were rapid and passionate, and a music form that had never appeared before was performed on the stage of the Mid-Autumn Festival Gala in Shunyi Industrial Park. A team of equally capable and heroic warriors marched forward with high and mighty steps, and appeared on the stage with passionate music.

All of a sudden, everyone's eyes were involuntarily drawn to the stage. They were all watching the performance on the stage with great curiosity and excitement. This unique performance was something they had never seen before. It was like a drama yet not like a drama.

As the drum music gradually reached its climax, this team of heroic and high-spirited dancing warriors began to follow the rhythm of the music, using the simplest syllables and singing along with the high-pitched rhythm of the music in their deep and powerful tenor voices.

At this time, Zhu Zaigui, who had been ready to perform, also stood on the lifting platform designed under the stage and began to perform with the drum beats.

For a moment, all the lights and eyes were focused on Zhu Zaigui.

Meng Chong, Teng Xiang, Chen Hong, Li Fang and others who were sitting in the audience also stood up and clapped excitedly. Zhang Tianci and Li Shizhen on the side looked at each other and felt a little strange. They had not seen Zhu Zaigui appear since the start of the party.

But just when the music started, Meng Chong and the others stood up, which made the two of them hesitate.

Soon, when Zhu Zaigui's figure appeared from the lift platform under the stage, Zhang Tianci and Li Shizhen also saw Zhu Zaigui clearly on the stage. Their buttocks seemed to be equipped with springs, and they stood up suddenly, their eyes full of disbelief and horror.

Why did the prince come on stage?
Although the two were not old-fashioned people who stick to the rules, they were still extremely shocked when they saw this scene!

Zhang Tianci and Li Shizhen looked at Zhu Zaigui who appeared on the stage in disbelief. They had never dreamed that Zhu Zaigui would suddenly appear on the stage. This was simply beyond their cognitive limits.

You have to know that Zhu Zaigui is a true royal descendant, a favored child of heaven, how could he possibly go on stage and perform in public? Is this royal etiquette still needed?

But at this time, the two did not dare to say anything.

Although Zhu Zaigui often came to Shunyi Industrial Park, not many people knew his identity. Even if most people saw Zhu Zaigui, they saw him from afar and did not really know that this nobleman who often came to Shunyi Industrial Park was the biological son of the current emperor, His Royal Highness Prince Yu.

Standing in the center of the stage, Zhu Zaigui listened carefully to the rhythm of the music, while suppressing his nervousness as he was performing in front of a stage with tens of thousands of people for the first time.

When the music reached a critical point, Zhu Zaigui adjusted his mentality and sang a deep and steady lyric in his still slightly immature voice.

"Looking northwards as the smoke of war rises"

"Dragon flags roll, horses neigh, sword energy is as cold as frost"

When Zhu Zaigui sang these two lines of lyrics, everyone present was extremely surprised. They had never heard such a tone of lyrics before. It sounded like a poem, but it also seemed not to be a poem.

But the rhythm of this song is very similar to the lyrics.

Meng Chong was even more excited and shouted first: "Cai!"

Teng Xiang, Chen Hong, and Li Fang also quickly reacted and shouted "Cheers". Although these four people were eunuchs, they were all top-notch eunuchs produced by the Imperial Palace Study. The Four Books and Five Classics and poetry were also their required courses, and the teachers who could teach them were all noble Hanlin from the Hanlin Academy.

Therefore, the four of them had very good literary appreciation abilities. Although they could now tell that the song Zhu Zaigui was singing did not fit the style of the lyrics and music they were familiar with, they also heard that "Loyalty to the Country" from their own prince was a song that was appreciated by both the elite and the masses and tended to be more colloquial.

Moreover, this kind of song seems to be easier to sing in the market and easier to sing.

But the more this happened, the more conflicted the four of them felt, because singing on stage was really not something that could be tolerated in public. Now the four of them were afraid that someone would recognize the person on the stage as Prince Yu, and then spread the word with ulterior motives that Prince Yu was a ridiculous prince who liked to "sing songs of the lowest class" like entertainers and actors.

If this gets out, it will be no joke.

So at this moment, no matter how well Zhu Zaigui sang on the stage, and no matter how enthusiastic the audience was, they were still nervous.

Zhang Tianci and Li Shizhen also looked at each other silently, and they seemed to understand each other's meaning in an instant. What happened tonight must be kept in their hearts and not told to anyone, otherwise the consequences would be disastrous!
Although their identities and status could not possibly involve them in such a dangerous political struggle for the throne, they were both very clear that they were now under Zhu Zaigui's protection, whether they admitted it or not.

If anything unexpected happened to Zhu Zaigui, they would inevitably be affected.

So no matter what the considerations were, they had to keep the secret for Zhu Zaigui at this time and not let anyone know that the true identity of the person singing on the stage tonight was the current Prince Yu.

Just as the people in the audience were thinking about Zhu Zaigui, Zhu Zaigui's song "Loyalty to the Country" also came to an end.

"China deserves congratulations from all sides."

With a long sound of "congratulations", Zhu Zaigui finally stopped his actions.

After singing this song, Zhu Zaigui thought he would be very tired. However, after singing the song, even without any audio equipment, he did not feel any difficulty. Instead, he felt very comfortable.

Moreover, his voice is extremely penetrating. Even under the vibration of the echo wall designed by Zhang Tianci, his voice can be heard throughout the entire venue. This has to be said to be an unexpected miracle.

Of course, Zhu Zaigui also knew very well why he could do this. This was all because he had been practicing "Xiantian Gong" for more than a year.

So at this moment, Zhu Zaigui once again witnessed the power of practicing Taoist internal energy. It turned out that the Taoists who could preach to the emperor were all very capable. It was almost impossible to just fill in the gaps in this fiercely competitive position.

So sometimes Zhu Zaigui couldn't help but wonder how Taoist Jiajing could live to the age of sixty after taking elixirs for so many years. It is very likely that these magical Taoist practice methods helped him regulate his body. Otherwise, judging from the lifespans and time spent on taking elixirs by other emperors who took elixirs for immortality, it is hard to explain why Emperor Jiajing could live to the age of sixty under such high-intensity elixir-taking practice.

You should know that the famous Emperor Taizong of Tang, Li Er, only took elixirs for a year before he died in a hurry. Emperor Wuzong of Tang in the late Tang Dynasty only lived to be in his thirties because he took elixirs to seek immortality.

Therefore, the fact that Taoist Master Jiajing could take elixirs for decades without dying suddenly must have some real skills. Otherwise, it is really hard to imagine how he could live to the age of sixty after taking such heavy metals.

In the words of later generations, it was simply a medical miracle!
