Buddhist Miracle Doctor: The Dark Prince, Can't Get Rid of Him

In a blink of an eye, it was the 23rd day of the twelfth lunar month, the Little New Year.

This is the day when the Kitchen God goes to heaven to report his work and tells the Jade Emperor the good and evil deeds of the family, so that the Jade Emperor can reward or punish them.

When sending off the Kitchen God, offerings such as fruits, clean water, beans, etc. should be placed on the table in front of the Kitchen God's portrait.

When offering sacrifices to the Kitchen God, honey should be smeared on his mouth so that he will not say bad things in front of the Jade Emperor.

Because there is a custom here that men do not worship the moon and women do not worship the kitchen god.

Therefore, in the Hall of Mental Cultivation, the ritual of worshiping the Kitchen God was performed by Brother Hui and Old Man Tao, the old man and the young man.

Mu Yingbao found some things very interesting. For example, in modern times, the Little New Year in the north falls on the twenty-third day of the twelfth lunar month.

In the south, it is one day later, on the 24th day of the twelfth lunar month. In previous years, Mu Yingbao would miss her modern family even more at the end of the year. This year, in addition to missing her parents and relatives, she also had another worry. Under the moonlit night, she looked at the moon in her heart and talked to her parents who traveled through time and space.

She said, "Mom and Dad, do you know that my daughter has found her true love and has a family. Please rest assured that she will live happily with him."

At this time of year in previous years, Mu Yingbao’s favorite thing to do was to take Brother Hui and his brother to the street to buy New Year’s goods.

Every time I go home, I bring a lot of bags with me, and sometimes I even have to ask the seller to drive the car to deliver the goods to my home.

She liked the feeling of preparing for the New Year, but this year she had not left the palace once since Xue Wenyu went to war.

In an emergency, she won't suffocate if she doesn't go out. There are many things she can do.

But if you go out willfully, something might happen and implicate others.

This kind of involvement is not just about doing something wrong, the price may be the life of one or several people.

Mu Yingbao is not timid or cowardly. Being willful occasionally is part of your personality, but there are some fatal willfulness that you must never have.

When she watched TV dramas, the scene she hated the most was the one where the heroine was warned repeatedly not to wander around or do anything even though she knew it was dangerous.

But the heroine just wouldn't listen. She clearly had no ability to whistle, but she overestimated her own abilities and insisted on going out to do something to help others.

The result is that not only does it make things more tedious, but it also causes others to get injured or even lose their lives.

Afterwards, I cried and regretted, blaming me for everything.

Every time that happened, Mu Yingbao couldn't help but curse in his heart, "Cry your mother & ah, cry."

Therefore, Mu Yingbao has very good self-discipline.

For example, she made a list of this year's New Year's goods and asked her people to buy them.

The closer it gets to the New Year, the more I miss the person who is away on the expedition.

A few days ago, I received news that the business owner and his grandson Shuai Jun had successfully recovered all the lost territories.

Mr. Shang was worried, so he stayed there and didn't return to Beijing for the time being.

Shang Xiaohu followed his grandfather's orders and led a group of soldiers to Yunning State.

The news sent back by Xue Wenyu shocked the ministers in the court even more. He said that he had led his army to occupy five cities of Yunning Kingdom. If the momentum continued, he would soon attack the capital of Yunning Kingdom.

All the ministers in the court thought that the battle would end once they drove away the foreign enemies and recovered their city.

Unexpectedly, the Duke took over the other party's territory in one fell swoop.

Moreover, judging from the tone of the victory report, it seems that it is not just a simple tit-for-tat.

Everyone looked at the emperor sitting on the dragon throne and saw a calm smile on his face. Everyone immediately understood that the emperor knew what the Duke had done!

However, such an important matter was not discussed in the court.

The king and his subject (father and son) had already discussed it privately.

Because when they looked at the father and son Fan Daxuetu, whom the emperor trusted the most, they also had surprised expressions on their faces, which showed that they were not aware of it beforehand.

Although the emperor is young, he is very courageous. He actually dared to do such a thing. Is this what they call a newborn ox is not afraid of a tiger?

Or, it is unknown whether this was originally the Duke's decision.

However, the court is now much quieter than before.

The number of people is nearly half less than before, because the emperor has issued an edict saying that not everyone needs to attend court every day.

There is a book to play, come.

If you have nothing to do, just stay in your official residence and deal with the things you should deal with.

H

The emperor said that if there is something very important, he will summon everyone to the palace to discuss it.

On the 24th day of the twelfth lunar month, Brother Hui got up early as usual, had breakfast with Mu Yingbao, rinsed his mouth, and then went out.

"Son, have you made up your mind?" Mu Yingbao asked as he walked him out the door.

"Yes, mother, my son has made up his mind. This carbuncle must be removed completely in one go." Brother Hui was very confident and spoke in a decisive manner.

Today is a special day. I have been preparing for this day for a long time, so long that I started preparing on the third day after I ascended the throne.

Today, there will be a thorough reshuffle in the court to clean out all the corrupt officials who are not concerned with state affairs.

As the youngest emperor in history, he decided to use the simplest and most brutal method to appoint and dismiss ministers in the court. Because there was no need to be polite to those people.

Their existence is like locusts, gnawing at the foundation of the country. With them around, it is very difficult for the people of Yan to live a peaceful and prosperous life as soon as possible.

When the court started in the morning, the ministers, whether sincere or not, performed the rituals of monarch and subject to him as usual.

However, the young emperor came straight to the point and said, "My dear ministers, it has been a while since I ascended the throne, and I have not handled many things well. I am really ashamed."

The ministers were murmuring in their hearts, wondering what this guy was up to today? But they still had to flatter him, saying "Our emperor is wise" and so on.

Brother Hui said, the country has its laws, the family has its rules, and without rules there will be no order.

Then, he said that after observing everyone over the past few days, he felt that there was something that needed to be resolved urgently.

While everyone was puzzled and guessing, Fan Puchang and his son, Luo Yi and others sat there very calmly, their eyes on their noses, their noses on their mouths, and their mouths on their hearts.

As soon as Brother Hui stretched out his hand, someone immediately handed him a cup of salty flower tea. After taking a sip to moisten his throat, he spoke for the first time.

Talking about the various things that have happened in Yanguo in recent years, and how hard you all have worked.

He went straight to the point. He said that he couldn't bear to see many ministers in the court working hard for state affairs for years and being exhausted physically and mentally. After thinking it over, he had to make a decision to let the ministers retire early and go home to enjoy their old age.

Then he waved his hand, and an eunuch immediately stepped forward to unfold an imperial edict and read out the list in public. When Brother Hui stretched out his hand, someone immediately handed him a cup of salt flower tea. After taking a sip to moisten his throat, he spoke again.

Then he waved his hand, and a eunuch immediately stepped forward, unfolded an imperial edict, and read out the list in public.

The court was immediately in an uproar. The people on the list accounted for more than 50% of the people in the court.

What does this mean? We have never been rebellious against you, Your Majesty, nor have we secretly colluded with that person in the Zhou clan to plot against you...
