Chapter Twenty-Three: The Heavenly Master's Calculation
The government got the list in turn, and the yamenzi immediately posted the list on the official document list in the streets and alleys. For a while, everyone in the country knew that their emperor was finally going to get married. Such a happy event was a joy and joy for the whole country. In order to celebrate, everyone even looked for fireworks and other things, just waiting for the wedding day, so that the whole country could celebrate together. As a result, many businessmen have raised prices to make a fortune in order to satisfy their brains. Even so, the people understand it in their hearts, but they don't want to lag behind others, and even think that the later they buy, the more expensive it will be, so they simply fight for their family property to buy it, and they think that they have made a bargain, and they are complacent about how high the price others buy. Because of this thought, the supply of goods is not demanded. And the items used for the wedding event also fulfilled everyone's wishes, and the price was higher than the day by day.
Let's say that the prime minister, Lord Liuzhu, was ordered to handle the marriage, but one person was too busy to come over, so he invited several ministers to share their worries about this matter. Those ministers didn't do much on weekdays, and the court was weak and didn't say much. But after all, they passed the imperial examination to become officials, and in Liuzhu's opinion, these two are much better than those wine bags and rice bags who like to talk about themselves. In addition, he ordered people to inspect their daily life and handle official affairs, and they were all clean and honest. So he let the two of them mix into this big fat pot.
The auspicious day to be chosen for the emperor's wedding must be determined by the heavenly master. I went to the mountains and asked the Heavenly Master to count the hours, not one or two o'clock, but I waited for three or four days to calculate it. Waiting for the returnman who went there was also a delay of a few days. The Heavenly Master calculated that the emperor's wedding would be scheduled for the full moon three months later. Liuzhu ordered someone to send the paper he brought back to the palace and present it to the emperor for his attention. Seeing this, Mo Xing thought that many things would take time, so he agreed. After getting a reply from the palace, Liuzhu and others passed the news and ordered the official government to post a list to inform the world.
Who would have thought that there were not only immortals like Heavenly Master in the mountains, but also filthy ** people, who only lived in the deep mountains at the border. Or run into the township and catch the beauty and bring it into the mountains, or burn and loot along the road, or destroy people's eyes and ears, just for entertainment. In recent years, many cases have been handled. Everyone knew about the crime and reported it to the official, but everyone who heard that it was a bandit in the mountains was helpless.
Everyone in the country knows that there is a thief's den hidden in the deep mountains, and there was an official who heard the report, but he was not angry, and he did not listen to the advice, so he took the yamen in the palace and brought weapons, and a group of people went to crusade against that guy. When he went, he was mighty and roared. After stepping out of everyone's sight, it was silent, and there was no sound for a few days. Those who have the courage to follow the road to see, just like those yamen, will never return. The cowardly and panicked people spread the rumor that "those people are the demons of the mountains, and they have eaten all the people who crusade against them", so that everyone did not dare to go to the mountains again.
The place where the bandits live in the mountains is also a good place, and it is also a fairy realm. Therefore, it is a neighborhood with the heavenly master. Although those bandits were full of evil, did all kinds of evil, and were vicious by nature, they did not dare to offend the Heavenly Master. For a long time, the well water does not interfere with the river water, and each lives separately.
Besides, the whole country has just posted an article. A person hid in the crowd, tied up a woman, saw the content of the list, and then took people to the mountains.
This man had very strong feet, and crossed several high mountains to reach the lair. The crowd welcomed him in, and they had no time to care about anything else, so they went inside to meet the bandit leader. From time to time, he came to the front, and the man quickly knelt down and said: "Big brother, the latest news, the emperor is going to get married."
The leader of the bandit sat on the top, spoke lazily, and said, "Why do you think it's a big deal?" What does that person's wedding have to do with me? And talk about other things.
The man said, "There has been nothing else going on lately." Before the little one came into the mountain, he went to see the daughter of the big wedding, although she had just come of age, she was really a first-class beauty!
The bandit leader smiled and said, "How beautiful is it?"
The humane: The villain only knows the words of sinking fish and geese, closing the moon and embarrassing flowers, and does not know other words of praise. When I saw the woman today, I felt that this person deserved to sink the fish and the geese, and close the moon and shy the flowers.
The bandit said: Listening to what you say, it seems to be true. Otherwise, how could the man who sat on the dragon chair look at it? As he spoke, he became more and more lazy, as if he was about to fall asleep immediately.
When they saw this, they all dispersed, and the man was picked up by the other brothers, and they all withdrew from the main hall. After closing the door of the temple, everyone pushed and pushed the man to the back, and when they reached a place, they began to ramble. A few people found a quiet place and dragged the kidnapped woman aside for recreation. But the first brother couldn't bear the little Jiujiu in his heart, and he insisted on asking clearly.
One of them said: How beautiful do you say the woman who married the emperor and Laozi? Without waiting for the person to reply, the other person rushed to say: Who belongs to that woman? If you go to snatch it, do you think it will be successful?
Such a man has lived in the mountains for a long time, just like an ape-man, and his mouth is full of foul language, and he cannot be clean, and he can say whatever he wants, without any scruples. But that person is different, because he has been a believer, he has lived between the city and the countryside for a long time, he is familiar with the world, and he knows how to be courteous, righteous and honest. As a result, he is much more reasonable than others. The monkey cub stared at the man in a hurry, waiting for the man to reply. Seeing the brothers like this, the man deliberately paused for a moment before laughing and saying, "What? What do you want to do?"
Everyone nodded in response. The man stretched his waist before he said: That woman is the daughter of the richest man in the Hill Country, named Ren Qingqing. This man is beautiful, I said it earlier, you know what it means. After so many years, I haven't said that about a beautiful woman, so you just think about it! The crowd was willing, so they pulled him and begged him again and again to say something, even if he didn't say beauty, but the scenery outside the mountain was also attractive. No way, the man had to say everything he had seen and heard in the near future. That's how you can relax.
Today is amazing! That day the master actually came to this bandit's den. For a while, many bandits were waiting for the battle, but they did not dare to strike first. One of them hurried to the main hall to report to the bandit leader. The leader of the bandits was lying down and sleeping on a high place. The man broke into the door, knelt down and said busily: Big brother, the teacher is here that day!
In an instant, the bandit leader woke up. He smiled and said, "The Heavenly Master is here, what is he going to do?" This is not said to the next head, but to himself. Then, he said: Since the neighbors are visiting, there is no reason to refuse them, just invite the Heavenly Master to come in.
When the man was killed, he hurried to the front again, informed his brothers, and let the Celestial Master in. The Heavenly Master is the Heavenly Master, and he must be very human. He has lived in the mountains for a long time, and has cultivated a posture of the ancient fairy road, and he is about to fly. When everyone saw it, they didn't dare to approach. I watched him enter the main hall from afar.
In the hall, the heavenly master stands at the bottom, and the bandit head lies on a high place. Both were smiling. The bandit first asked: The Heavenly Master is here today, I don't know what is important?
Heavenly Master Dao: I think you already know about the wedding of the emperor of the Hill Country.
Bandit Leader: I only heard about it before.
Heavenly Master Dao: In that case, please do me a favor.
Bandit Leader: What's the matter?
Heavenly Master Dao: Grab that woman.
The bandit leader smiled and said, "Haha!" Who would have thought that the Heavenly Master, who had lived in the mountains for a long time, would beg the bandits to rob other people's brides.
The Heavenly Master was silent.
The leader of the bandits then said: Tell me, why did you rob that person?
The Heavenly Master smiled: Heavenly secrets must not be revealed.
