Chapter 38: Divination IV
After finishing speaking, Xia Hao threw out another cold sentence, "Involve the people of Tianshan in the harem, even if you are the queen, you still have to be punished." Today, I will write down this punishment for the time being, and I will talk about it later. ”
As he spoke, he took the sign to his hand, and saw that the black ink on it was clearly written: "The phoenix flies on the branches, and the colorful clouds surround the palace." ”
Sensing that Xia Hao was looking at him, Lu Kui hurriedly lowered his eyes and bit his lip, hanging his head and not daring to speak.
Xia Hao's gaze swept over the faces of everyone in front of him one by one, and finally fell on the two women in front of him, but he didn't know if he was looking at them or thinking about something. So much so that when he opened his mouth, everyone wondered who he was asking,—— "Is this a sparrow painted as a phoenix, or a young phoenix bird with its wings plucked?"
So no one made a sound, Mei Qianqian did not answer, and even Mu Yunyun was silent. Fortunately, the silence did not last long, and Xia Hao quickly took his own words, "If it is a phoenix, it is my Dayong's phoenix." ”
He called "Queen", and when he saw Mei Qianqian looking at him, he said, "Since the queen has a heart, the marriage of the girl of the Lu family will be handed over to the queen for careful consideration." ”
This wants to be the royal matchmaker royal marriage, I don't know how blessed it is, most of the girls around Lu Kui raised their eyes to look at Lu Kui at this time, most of them were envious, and they also showed a little bit of a look of loss that they couldn't compare.
Mei Qianqian hurriedly pulled Lu Kui to receive the order to thank him, Xia Hao finished the salute by them, threw the sign on the table, and said very casually, "The golden dragon flies into the sky, the phoenix follows, and the dragon and phoenix have been accompanied by each other since ancient times." Queen, you can't be careless, who knows if this phoenix is going to fly to the golden dragon today. ”
Hearing this, Mei Qianqian could only continue the smile on her face, while Xia Zihai on the side frowned slightly.
The emperor and queen are husband and wife, but from the beginning to this point, Wu Yan has not seen a little warmth between these two people. Xia Zihe was beside him, and when he saw the expression on her face, he guessed most of it, and said in a low voice, "There is no father and son in the heavenly family, how much kindness can there be between husband and wife, dew grace overnight, and go tomorrow." However, they are them, I am me, and we are not like them. ”
"How is it different, is it possible that he is ruthless, you are amorous? ruthless or amorous, not all fail to leave their hearts to one person, aren't they all the same. ”
Xia Zihe pursed his lips and wanted to smile when he heard her say this, but suddenly someone called his name, he could only accept the smile and unspoken words, and stepped forward in response.
There are not many people in Mei Yuan, they speak softly, and they are separated from Xia Hao by more than ten steps, can the emperor still hear their words. Wu Yan secretly thought that this emperor's ear power was so good, no wonder people always said that they should not judge people face to face, while thinking that it was time to call themselves next, and sure enough, he heard Xia Hao's voice sound again.
Wu Yan closed his eyes tightly, waiting to hear the bad news, but the name he ordered was not his own name, but Xia Ziyan.
It turned out that he was just thinking too much, Wu Yan secretly said in his heart, and for a while he didn't pay attention to the direction of Xia Ziyan. Coincidentally, it happened to intersect with Xia Ziyan's gaze that had just withdrawn, and Xia Ziyan got up as if he was ignoring, leaving only a back.
"The Ministry of Internal Affairs has already chosen an auspicious day, you two have a heavy responsibility, prepare well, and when the holy decree is issued the next day, you should also set off. ”
I heard Mu Yunyun echo a sentence, "The natural and man-made disasters of dissolving water are dangerous and unpredictable. Although the road to the Tianshan Mountains is not dangerous, the road is far away, the two princes are young, and the people accompanying them are not only cautious and safe, but it is best to protect the princes all the way. Zheng Changjian and Xu Shaokun, two adults, have been in and out of the battlefield, and they are the heads of the military department, so it is most suitable to accompany the two princes. ”
The people of the harem are not allowed to participate in political affairs, Mu Yunyun's words are obviously for his father Mu Congjun to install people next to the prince, but who would have thought that Mu Yunyun would be frank and outspoken in public, whether he was pampered and arrogant, or he made a mistake for a while. Mei Qianqian wanted to speak and stopped, but finally turned her head in disregard, and several harem concubines behind her could only purse their lips, still smiling, and only looked at Mu Yunyun with deep meanings in their eyes.
Xia Hao didn't pay attention to the details here, and had already looked at Wu Ying, "Witch, I don't know if the trip to dissolve water is going well?"
Before Wu Ying could speak, an old voice sounded in the crowd, this person had white hair and white beard, was wearing gray clothes, and there was a seven-star pattern on the back of the clothes, and said to Xia Hao, "Your Majesty, let the old minister talk a lot." It is a matter of the prince, if the trip to dissolve the water is a big murderer, the witch must have already made a saint. I think it is God's mercy, although natural disasters are unavoidable, man-made disasters can still be calmed. ”
Xia Hao turned to look at the old man who asked for no reason, the expression on his face did not change, he was not happy or angry, but it seemed unfathomable, the old man saw that Xia Hao neither refused nor refused, and did not seem to care about what he was going to say next, there was no way, he could only continue to say by himself:
"The old minister watched the stars at night, which was a foreshadowing. Presumably there is a messenger of God here now, God bless Dayong, if the messenger can go with His Royal Highness the Three Princes, the demons in front of him will be eliminated, the people will be settled, and the road will be peaceful. ”
Xia Hao replied at this time, still with an unfathomable expression, "I understand, it turns out that the star official meant to let the witch also go to the dissolved water. It's just that the star official has not said it for a long time, and he has only said it today tonight. ”
"Please forgive Your Majesty, it's not that the old minister deliberately concealed it and didn't report it, it's just that the old minister was also yesterday...... No, it was a foreshadowing from today's stargazing, so I hurried to tell Your Majesty. The old minister heard that the emperor had a banquet in Meiyuan, so he came uninvited......"
Seems to be very familiar with Si Xingguan's consistent nagging, Xia Hao shook his head, glanced at Wu Ying, Wu Ying understood, and interrupted Si Xingguan's words for Xia Hao: "I have no objection to Si Xingguan's words, but it's a pity that I am a witch of the auxiliary country, and I have a heavy responsibility, so I don't dare to leave the tower easily." ”
"That's a pity", the white-haired and white-bearded Si Xingguan was a little regretful, "The astrological signs indicate that if there is a messenger from the Tianshan Mountains going together, it means that the Dayong royal family and the Tianshan Mountains will be on behalf of the Dayong royal family, and the panic and helplessness of the affected people can be appeased, and the situation will be better controlled......"
Before the old man's words were finished, a coquettish voice interjected angrily, "You old man said so much, don't you just want to say that the stars are fierce." If you want to reverse the evil situation, you have to have a messenger go with you. Now the witch can't go, isn't there still a spirit girl? The saint is a witch candidate, the spirit girl is second only to the saint, naturally it will not be so bad, and she is not afraid that the far water will not be able to catch the thirst, there happens to be a spirit girl here, and she is the most suitable candidate. ”
Wu Yan heard whose voice it was, and couldn't help but sigh, sure enough, she saw the delicate princess Xia Hong showing a bright and innocent smile to herself, if she hadn't heard her just say such a sentence, I was afraid that Xia Hong would have thought that Xia Hong was showing friendship.
Xia Hong smiled at Wu Yan, and said in a coquettish voice, "There are astrological signs, and it has given the right time, place and people, it seems that God really blesses me Dayong." Father, do you say yes or no?"
