Chapter 52 Fire in the Palace

Chapter 52                                                                                                                             �

"Is the way of immortality you told me true or lied to me?" Jiajing asked.

At this moment, Zhou Mengchen and Jiajing were waiting for news in Yingtian Pavilion. Only then did Jiajing ask this question that had been hovering deep in his heart.

I think there is no need for Zhou Mengchen to lie to himself at this moment.

Zhou Mengchen was stunned. He didn't expect Jiajing to ask this. He smiled faintly and said, "Your Majesty, I have not deceived Your Majesty at all. Many times, the predecessors planted trees and later generations took advantage of the cool air. I don't know how many secrets there are in humans. Now we only know that the human body is composed of cells, and what is the structure of the cells? What kind of functions does it have? I once thought about creating a machine that is the same as the human body, but your Majesty also knows the many problems. The magical skills of nature are not comparable to those of today. Even if we start from today, we will continue to study, it is probably within three hundred years. Don't think about immortality."

"It's good to be able to die in your life. Your Majesty, I am also an ordinary person. If I really have a way to live forever, how could I not think about it? It's not that I don't want to do it, but I can't. I did have the idea of ​​immortality in my early years, but I came to know that I have no hope to complete all this in my life, so I am eager to achieve fame and fortune. I just want to be immortal."

As this happened, Zhou Mengchen did not mean to tell the truth. After all, some words did not increase credibility, but instead attracted more suspicion.

Jiajing still didn't believe it. Zhou Mengchen could only say: "Your Majesty, you can tell that at the beginning of the world, some creatures did not have the concept of life span. They could survive forever, but even the most powerful life would encounter many problems. Because the number was rare, it would be extinct. So later creatures had the concept of reproduction, but there was another problem at this moment. Too many species that reproduced would squeeze out resources.

Just like in the Central Plains today, there are obviously fewer lands and more people. Everyone is struggling to survive, so there are so many things that cannot be said. Later, because the number of reproduction was too large, the original ecological relationship was even destroyed, and the entire organism was always extinct. So organisms evolved into an elimination mechanism. With the concept of life span, when organisms complete the reproduction task, they will die in a certain year."

"In this way, the population will be passed down from generation to generation, and even endless. Even if there is a huge disaster, only some creatures will survive and will flourish again in less than many years."

"Birth, old age, sickness and death are a cycle that cannot be escaped for a person, but for a population, it is the most suitable solution. It fully verifies what Your Majesty has proved before. Survival of the fittest."

Jiajing said blankly, as if he noticed that there were people around him. He murmured: "Return to the innate, return to the innate, it turns out that the Taoist books did not lie to me. He said, "Where should I start from when I return to the innate?"

"I will never die by circling you."

Jiajing's head is extraordinary.

Zhou Mengchen only told Jiajing some evolutionary laws of microorganisms. However, here in Jiajing, it became another situation.

The so-called innate one without the concept of life span should be celestial beings or divine beasts. If you want to live forever, you must be able to return to the innate. Of course, innateness is also a very complex word in Taoism, which refers to the state of a person before the world is opened, and also knows the state of a person before he is born.

In short, Zhou Mengchen's words gave Jiajing a lot of imagination.

It seems that the same destination is the same. Whether it is the Taoist practice of Dharma or the path advocated by Zhou Mengchen, they all point to this place in the end.

In this way, the way to immortality may be really possible.

Although Jiajing knew that even if it was really possible, he had used a lot now. But what he had been working hard for throughout his life was right in front of him, how could he not want to know the answer?

Zhou Mengchen didn't know what to say for a moment. Now at this critical moment of life and death, Jiajing is still in the mood to pay attention to Changsheng? He said, "Your Majesty, I don't know."

Jiajing's nasal voice suddenly became heavy and he said, "What did you say?"

Zhou Mengchen said, "Your Majesty, if I knew, I would have told you a long time ago, why wait until today."

Jiajing sneered and said, "How can you know, don't you want an immortal emperor?"

As soon as Jiajing said this, Zhou Mengchen had nothing to refute. After all, Jiajing was famous and difficult to serve. If possible, many civil officials might not want to change to an emperor.

Just when Zhou Mengchen didn't know how to answer the conversation.

Suddenly a little eunuch ran up and whispered a few words beside Huang Jin. Then Huang Jin immediately told Jiajing. Jiajing was shocked and said, "What? Is this true?"

Huang Jin pointed in one direction and said, "Your Majesty, there is nothing right in that aspect."

Jiajing looked up and saw that it was the direction of the Jingying Camp. Now the entire Jingying Camp is brightly lit. It reflects on the night sky, and the stars are stained with red.

It was late at night and I heard the change of the Beijing Camp from afar. But this change only happened in the camp and did not seem to be sending troops at all.

It just confirms that Jiajing has just received the news.

Jiajing sneered and said, "What a Zhou Mengchen, what do you want to do? Do you want to rebel?"

Zhou Mengchen breathed a sigh of relief at this time and said, "Of course I don't want to. If I want to rebel, I won't come here. I came here to hand over my life to Your Majesty, just to make Your Majesty put the world first. Let's stop this farce." Jiajing laughed loudly, and there was a bit of crazy laughter, saying, "I have been threatened in my life, and I will kill you today. I see if you have any solutions?"

Then Jiajing escaped from his side and loaded the bullets. He lit the fuse, and Jiajing aimed his trembling hand at Zhou Mengchen.

It seemed that with just a moment, a projectile shot out, killing Zhou Mengchen.

Although Zhou Mengchen had many predictions before, he miscalculated this time.

Yes, Jiajing has always been a more rational person, but Jiajing is not a person who can always remain rational. It can be said that no one can always remain rational, especially now Jiajing.

Jiajing knew that his life was about to come to an end. For a person who loves life so much, or is greedy for life and fears death, how could he not have any feeling in his heart? How could he not have any anxiety in his heart?

Of course there is.

Many times, Jiajing can control this anxiety, but now it cannot.

Jiajing never suffered much loss in his life. When he suffered the most, it was in the hands of Yang Tinghe. However, Yang Tinghe and his son had already paid enough price.

Now that he is old, Zhou Mengchen is kicked.

How can Jiajing be willing?

What made Jiajing even more unwilling was that he had no way to turn the tables.

If you have a bet, you won't lose because even if you lose now, you still have a chance to win. But Jiajing can't wait for the next time now. How can you not make Jiajing angry? At this moment, Jiajing said in his heart: "I don't care what he looks like after I die. I believe it, can Zhou Mengchen really mobilize his army into the palace? Let's kill Zhou Mengchen first and then make a fuss."

The cold sweat appeared on Zhou Mengchen's forehead.

Jiajing judged that Zhou Mengchen's control over the Jing camp was only able to keep the Jing camp in place and not move, and could not drive these troops to attack the imperial city. It was probably a mutiny on the spot. After all, no matter how stupid these soldiers were, they knew what the imperial palace represented.

The human heart is a very delicate thing.

The world of the Great Ming Dynasty has not yet reached the point where people are disappointed.

However, this does not mean that Zhou Mengchen did not arrange personnel in the palace. Zhou Mengchen did not mean to take down Jiajing, but to threaten Jiajing a little bit, so that Jiajing could realize the importance of Zhou Mengchen and prevent Jiajing from easily attacking Zhou Mengchen.

I just don’t know if it’s a signal problem or other reasons. The palace and western garden are dark and there is no reaction at all.

At this moment, a beam of fire gushed from the darkness, and in a moment, a large area of ​​houses were lit. Xiyuan was in chaos for a moment, and it was fired to put out the fire and lift water.

Everyone can see that this fire is abnormal. It would be strange if it is not artificial.
