Huachi County, Xinnan County, Yuzhou, which is a county adjacent to Jingzhou, not only has a long history, but also has outstanding people.

In the previous dynasty and the Gale Dynasty, there were several important ministers of the court, all of whom were from Huachi County.

Therefore, how many people in Shilin are proud to be able to govern Huachi, one to use the aura of this treasure land, hoping that they can be reborn, and second, to use this place as a pedal for their career, hoping to soar to the sky.

The current county magistrate of Huachi County is named Wu Bugui, and his ancestor is not a family, but a businessman who walks the world, and what he does is to make a living by looking at people's faces.

In his father's generation, the family had some savings, and when they were rich, they thought about change, and they wanted to change their identity as a "businessman" at the end of the upper ninth.

The heavy responsibility of this glorious lintel fell on Wu Bugui, Wu Bugui has been studying hard and tirelessly since he was a child, and his own Shilin luck is still some, and the rich window has been sitting hard for more than 20 years, which really made him read some fame.

coincided with the recruitment of talents by the king of the East China Sea, Wu Bugui's father was far-sighted and did not spare money, and really got Wu Bugui an errand in Dongyue to get the Huachi County Order.

During Wu Bugui's reign in Huachi, in addition to not being able to suppress his beautiful habits and taking a few more concubines for himself, he also governed Huachi County to prosper and the people lived and worked in peace and contentment.

However, recently, the county magistrate has been distressed, and the tea and rice are hard to swallow, and he can't stop worrying.

It all started with a dream.

A month ago, Wu Bugui had a strange dream that he was resting on a wicker chair in his atrium after dinner, which was what he did every day.

Suddenly, a dazzling white light appeared in the sky, as if it flew from the sky, impartial, and happened to fall into the courtyard of Wu Bugui's house.

The scene was dazzling, as bright as day, and it was so piercing that people couldn't open their eyes.

After the white light circled in the courtyard, it rushed straight into Wu Bugui's arms, like a heavenly fire, and Wu Bugui woke up.

After waking up, Wu Bugui was sweating profusely, his close-fitting clothes were soaked, it was just the beginning of spring, and the night in the Huachi area was quite cold.

This dream came too strangely, I don't know if it is auspicious or evil, Wu Bugui, who has always believed in ghost and god divination, thought that something big must have happened.

Wu Bugui couldn't care less about pity and cherishing the jade, so he hurriedly woke up the flower-like concubine beside him and told her the dream just now.

The little concubine often went to the Celestial Temple outside the city on weekdays to make incense, and knew that the host there could interpret dreams, so she suggested that Wu Bugui go to the temple tomorrow to let the host master explain it.

Wu Bugui, who believes in ghosts and gods, feels that this dream will not be for no reason, just like four years ago, he also had a dream, someone interpreted the dream to him and said that he was going to be promoted, and sure enough, it didn't take long for Wu Bugui to be appointed as the county magistrate of Huachi.

Wu Bugui no longer felt sleepy, he got up and walked into the courtyard alone, looking up at the starry sky until dawn.

On this day, Wu Bugui put down all his official duties, pushed away all entertainment, only took the concubine, set up a carriage, and went to the Celestial Temple outside the city early in the morning.

When they arrived, the gate of the Celestial Temple had not yet opened, Wu Bugui thought that he was here to interpret the dream, in order not to make extraneous branches, he collided with the auspicious atmosphere, but did not step forward to knock on the door, but stood outside the gate for half an hour.

This Tianxiang Temple is in the Taoist palace temple, belongs to the temple, and there is such a temple in a small Huachi County, which shows the prosperity of this Taoist luck.

When a young Taoist priest opened the door, he was surprised to see two people standing outside, he didn't expect to come to the temple so early to make incense, but after the young Taoist priest carefully recognized it, he immediately smiled.

He knew the beautiful woman who was gorgeously dressed, and she often came to the temple to make incense, and she was a great pilgrim of their celestial temple.

The young Taoist priest hurriedly let Wu Bugui and his concubine into the temple, invited them to sit in the tea room, and boiled tea for them first, and then went to call the host.

Wu Bugui was anxious, and after greeting him, he immediately told the host about the situation in the dream, and the host master was an old man with gray hair and a furrow, dressed in a green sermon robe, and he was quite clean.

After listening to Wu Bugui's dream, the old Taoist priest sat on the futon and closed his eyes, as if he was meditating normally.

Wu Bugui, who was on the side, was anxious in his heart, but he didn't dare to disturb the old Taoist, and his buttocks sitting on the futon moved around, and his hands were not crossed, nor were they put away, even when he went to see Lord Assassin Shi a year ago, it was not like today.

Just when Wu Bugui's heart was about to collapse in a hurry, the old Taoist priest finally let out a long breath and opened his eyes.

The old Taoist priest said a verse: The storm rises in daytime, and the blessings and misfortunes are bad.

After speaking, the old Taoist priest shook his head, and his old face seemed to be a little older after such a while.

"Master, can you make it clear?"

Wu Bugui asked anxiously, those two verses were also confusing to him, a county magistrate who had read several sage books, and the little concubine Ruhua on the side also looked hopeful.

The old Taoist priest glanced at the two of them, shook his head, and said: "The blessing of the disaster depends on it, and the blessing of the blessing is lurking, whether it is a blessing or a curse, and it is a disaster that cannot be avoided." ”

Wu Bugui was stunned for a moment after hearing this, and the little concubine Ruhua on the side asked anxiously, "Master, is that a blessing or a curse?"

"Yes, yes, Master, is this a blessing or a curse!" Wu Bugui hurriedly asked when he came back to his senses.

What made the two dumbfounded was that the old Taoist priest had already closed his eyes again and went to Yujing Mountain to see Dao Ancestor.

Wu Bugui still wanted to ask, but the young Taoist priest who was waiting on the side reminded: "Two donors, Master and his old man have already settled down, so let's go back for the time being!"

Wu Bugui had no choice but to go back first, remembering the two verses of the old Taoist priest in his heart, and when he left, Wu Bugui threw a lot of incense money into the merit box.

After the two of them left, the young Taoist priest looked into the merit box and smiled even more.

Since Wu Bugui came back from the Celestial Elephant Temple, he has been restless all day long, and his mind is full of the dream and the two verses of the old Taoist priest.

One day, Wu Bugui suddenly received a secret warrant from Lord Li, the county guard, saying that a very important person in Los Angeles would pass through Huachi, and he was asked to make all preparations for the reception in advance and keep it absolutely confidential.

Wu Bugui didn't know what a big man was, but listening to the tone of the county guard Lord Li, the person who came was definitely not simple, Wu Bugui found the county lieutenant, told him about it, and asked the county lieutenant to do a good job of defense.

As for the reception and other matters, Wu Bugui personally led a group of county officials to prepare.

A few days later, Wu Bugui did not wait for the mysterious big man, but waited for a shocking news that the second prince Xuanyuan Ge was assassinated on the outskirts of Huachi County, and all his followers were killed.

When Wu Bugui heard the news, he immediately thought of that dream in his mind, and it was really a disaster that could not be avoided.

On the day that the second prince Xuanyuan Ge was assassinated, the government army of Xinnan County surrounded the scene and stationed in Huachi County.

Wu Bugui made himself the commander of Huachi County, and he was also diligent, although his reputation in Shilin was not as good as those scholars from famous families, but he inherited the fine traditions of his ancestors, was clever, knew how to invest in people's favor, and was willing to invest, so the relationship between officialdom was not bad.

In this officialdom that pays attention to the orthodoxy of famous families, Wu Bugui is also very prosperous and proud.

In the past few years, the official has been doing it for a long time, and his body and mind have also swelled up, although the original wife gave birth to a big fat son to him, but after all, he can't hold back his loneliness, in the name of being busy with official duties and needing to take care of him, the young and beautiful concubine has taken room after room, living a fairy-like life.

Wu Bugui thinks that the beauty of life is nothing more than that.

I never thought that a thunderbolt would come on a sunny day, and such a big thunder fell on his head, this thing was not something he could afford, and no matter how clever his previous operation methods were, it would be difficult to reach the sky.

His immediate boss, Xinnan County Shou Li Shouzun, is already difficult to protect himself, and he is afraid that he will not be able to take care of him at this time.

Wu Bugui resented in his heart, since God had given him an omen, why didn't he make it clearer?

------

When the king of the East Sea heard the news of his son's assassination, he was furious, and the whole house was crushed by the furious qi emitted from his body.

When he was using troops against Chu in Dongyue, such a thing happened, and someone wanted to pull his tiger whiskers.

In addition to ordering the officials at all levels to thoroughly investigate the matter, the king of the East China Sea gave a death order to the "mirage", asking them to find out the reason for the killing of the second prince and the murderer.

He hadn't been so angry in a long time.

After the Luocheng Change, in the temple, the king of the East China Sea served as the Taifu, controlled the Luocheng Imperial Court, and ruled the six states of Yan, Henan, Si, Hebei, You, and the six states, and established Dongyue on this basis.

In Shilin, the East China Sea Wangfu opened the wind of raising scholars, and hundreds of sons competed to evaluate the East China Sea Palace, and the East China Sea King also received the big sacrificial wine of the Los Angeles School Palace, which is known as "the world is right".

In the rivers and lakes, the king of the East China Sea has the name of "heavenly sword", entering the Tao with martial arts, according to legend, has entered the realm of the earth god, and only the Taoist real people and Bashu sword immortals on the Taiyi Mountain in the south of the red world can match it.

The glory of the King of the East China Sea can be said to have reached the peak of the peak, even those spiritual officials who are in charge of the earth, mountains and rivers, and all corners of the world must let him score three points.

And many of those high-ranking monks outside the square were also taken by the martial might of this secular prince, put down their own figures, and came to serve one after another.

On weekdays, the princes cultivated their own forces, and put their hands into the temples, fighting with each other openly and secretly, as well as the local wealthy families in Dongyue, also cultivating their power, and faintly disobedient.

But all this has not crossed the bottom line in the heart of the East Sea King, he can tolerate it for the time being, and find the right time to solve it slowly in the future.

The second prince, Xuanyuan Ge, was the most favored one among the many sons of the King of the East China Sea, which inevitably aroused the jealousy and even resentment of his other brothers.

This time, he sent the second prince Xuanyuan Ge to the front line to watch the battle, the itinerary was very secretive, and he also sent a "mirage" to protect him in secret, and he was conspired against only when he went to Huachi, which gave the king of the East China Sea a wake-up call.

Whether it is Dongyue or other forces in the world, they have already dared to challenge his majesty.

Since the assassination of the second prince Xuanyuan Ge, the king of the East China Sea has been staying in the secret pavilion of the East Hall in the Dongping Garden.

No one knew what the East Sea King was thinking, and no one knew what he would do next.

Just when everyone in Dongyue was talking about the assassination of the second prince Xuanyuan Ge, an equally shocking news was sent to the East China Sea King in the Dongtang Secret Pavilion from the mirage and the border pass military reports one after the other.

"The 20,000 troops of Huwei general Liu Ba were besieged by the Chu army outside Xiling City, and after fighting all night, the whole army was annihilated, and Huwei general Liu Ba was killed. ”

At the same time, the mirage also sent another news: the Rongguo cavalry Chen Bing Sizhou border, there seems to be an action.
