As soon as he finished speaking, the entire office fell silent for a moment. All three froze.

- "Would you like to go to the Imperial Palace?"

Is this a leak? The two of them announced the world so unscrupulously and without scruples, and they broke into the basket in the palace?

Lin Jian really didn't know what to say, he could only pretend to be stupid, pretending not to understand An Yuan and Lu Yang's panic and distraction, and trying his best to ignore the sudden language dysfunction of the two designers. In the end, faced with two sweaty faces that he couldn't even stand himself, he could only pick up the teacup and send off the guests politely, thus getting a "goodbye" that was almost grateful.

…………

Looking at the hasty backs of the two of them as if they had been amnestied, Lin Jian thoughtfully pressed down the communicator. Half a minute later, Su Luo's handsome face appeared on the table—just the 3D model that Lu Yang had taken from the floor.

After listening to the truth, Su Luo was very strangely silent for a moment, looking unpredictable. After a while, he spoke, and there was a hint of hesitation in his deep and pleasant voice.

"This is the crown prince's private garden, which I visited once half a year ago. However, it was not rearranged at that time. ”

Lin Jian realized: "...... say so"

Su Luo shook his head slightly: "I don't know very well. The East Palace is now heavily controlled, and it is extremely difficult for the news inside to leak out. Half a month later, there will be a 'big feast' for the royal family, and the crown prince must attend. If there is really something wrong with him, the royal family will also do their best to block the condition. ”

The royal "big banquet", this term is like thunder, even for Lin Jian, a non-indigenous person who crossed over later, it is also like thunder - "big banquet" was originally one of the "nine ceremonies" of the royal family to reward meritorious and important ministers, and the meaning and form of the "big banquet" changed after the constitutional monarchy, and it became a five-year ceremony to entertain the top elites from all walks of life, which can be called the highest honor of this era.

Since it is the highest honor, of course, it cannot be out of the basket. It is understandable that Lu Yang and An Yuan are so nervous.

Lin Jian figured out this and couldn't help laughing: "No wonder those two people were so angry, they even said something like inviting me to the palace." This is a big disaster. ”

Su Luo didn't answer him, on the contrary, he closed his eyes slightly, as if he was silently pondering.

Two seconds later, he suddenly opened his eyes, and a pair of black and white eyes stared at Lin Jian.

"If the prince was just a minor injury, the two would never be so breathless. Professor Luk is the Deputy Dean of the Royal College of Design and has a very close relationship with the royal family. Su Luo said indifferently, "But if you are seriously ill, it is impossible to hide it so much-Su still has some status in the medical world." Most likely, it is a lingering illness that is neither good nor bad. The illness itself is not a big deal, but it just happens to make people delay the 'big feast' - Lin Jian, Professor Lu's design, is there anything wrong? ”

Lin Jian glanced at the streams, plants, and trees on the floor, and shrugged his shoulders back.

"In the general direction, it is a feng shui bureau that is exhausted, and I don't know the small aspects. The winding paths in the garden are hidden and hidden, and there are more feng shui that can disgust people, how can I know completely? To find out one by one, you have to get a walk around the garden. ”

Su Luo nodded slightly, looking at the 3D model in the flickering light. Unexpectedly, his voice was a little lighter.

"If I'm not mistaken, I'm afraid Professor Lu and Mr. An also have this idea. As long as one design goes wrong, it is natural to wonder if there is something wrong with other designs. ”

"That's why you invited me into the palace?" Lin Jian blurted out, surprised in his heart: "Can he just be a designer and invite people into the palace?" And it's the prince's private garden? ”

"Not bad." Su Luo bowed, "While things haven't deteriorated yet, it's naturally best to prevent problems before they happen." But...... However, Lu Yang's words are indeed too reckless. Professor Lu is very trusted in the royal family, and many of the prince's cronies are also close friends. If it is on weekdays, inviting you into the palace is just a gesture, and someone will naturally make it convenient for him. But now that the crown prince is sick, the palace must be heavily guarded. The East Palace is the focus of the blockade, even if he has great ability, it is impossible to stuff you into it like this. Even if he really wants to invite you to the palace, the decision is not in his hands. ”

Su Luo stopped talking and stared at Lin Jian meaningfully. I don't know if it's his own illusion, Lin Jian actually vaguely felt a trace of ...... from this gaze Joy?

Joy?

What is Mr. Su happy about?

Su Luo didn't give him time to think carefully. Just two seconds later, he picked up the conversation.

"Of course, Lu Yang and An Yuan are both big trees with deep roots in the palace and have extensive contacts. With just the two of them, they are naturally powerless, but their friends may not be ...... The current secretary general of the imperial family is Lu Yang's college classmate, and it is said that the two have a close relationship. He also happens to have the right to invite temporarily. ”

"So...... If Lu Yang really brought an invitation, would you accept it? ”

His deep and dark eyes stared at Lin Jian for a moment.

Lin Jian was a little hesitant.

If you want to tell the truth, then he should have not considered the "possibility of entering the palace" at all - perhaps out of some stereotype in his previous life, Lin Jian has always ignored the royal family in this world, intentionally or unintentionally, and knows nothing about the status and influence of the royal family. Because of this, he is rightfully out of words.

It seems to have been expected for a long time. Su Luo, who didn't wait for an answer, naturally continued.

"I'm building yì you to work with the royal family."

Lin Jian nodded hurriedly: "Oh-yes, okay, okay!" ”

Su Luo glanced at him.

"Don't you care about the reason?"

――I don't necessarily understand if I care.

"W-what about the reason?"

"If you want to talk about influence and credibility, the only thing that can compete with the royal family is the central government. But the constraints of the central government are quite numerous, and they must abide by - at least openly - the principles of ghosts and spirits, and the separation of church and state. Su Luo retracted his gaze and looked very indifferent, "The government may be able to cooperate with you in the field of anti-cult, but it will never put you in front of the stage, because they can't explain it." On the contrary, the royal family is much freer. Under the Royal Treatment Agreement, which was signed 73 years ago, they were free to decide who to hire without having to explain it to the outside world. The influence of the royal family in high society is unparalleled, it is a kind of benchmark and lighthouse, if you can really cooperate with the royal family, the fame and resources you can get will be incomparable, truly incomparable. ”

"So, do you accept cooperation?"

――――――――

Overall, all of them were as Su Luo expected. Only the day after Lu Yang and An Yuan ran away, they came to the door again, and they also brought a tall and fat man with a waist circumference of about two-thirds of their height, a strong man.

"This is my college classmate, Mr. Tall Crown--Uh-." Lu Yang introduced Lin Jian very attentively, "He has now left the design circle, but he is still very famous in the design world." He had recently listened to some of Mr. Lin's comments and was very interested, so he came to pay a visit. ”

["The Secretary General of the Royal Service will never see you with your true identity. Su Luo's expression was calm, "It's an eventful time now, and he won't add another incident anyway." Of course, he doesn't disguise himself either. In general, he just needs not to reveal his identity. Even if something goes wrong, you can use your private identity to gag the media. 】

Lin Jian finally stiffened his face and didn't laugh. He reached out and shook the tall fat gentleman. Then, he stared at the red-faced secretary general of royal affairs, who was known as Gao Daguan, and asked softly.

"What questions do you have?"

Gao Daguan hesitated for a moment, then asked in a gentle voice that was surprisingly out of step with his stature.

"A few days ago, Professor Lu and I had a chat about 'Feng Shui'. Of course - ah, forgive me, I didn't believe it at first. But we did a few little statistical tests, and we found that some of the things in architectural design -- some things that seem to be coincidental -- are hard to realize

Lin Jian finally couldn't help laughing. He remembered the information that Su Luo had given him yesterday afternoon - the Royal Academy of Design had mobilized two super AIs, which ran for three hours and cost hundreds of thousands.

A few "tiny" statistical tests?

Lin Jian cleared her throat happily.

"Allow me to make an analogy." "If—I mean if—with a very strong rope that will never break, hang a steel knife at the head of your bed. Every day when you wake up and go to sleep, when you open and close your eyes, you will see this sharp knife, how do you feel? ”

"The expectation that steel knives will bring harm." Gao Daguan didn't think twice, "Even if it can't cause substantial damage, it can create a subconscious sense of crisis and the unhappiness of private space being invaded." If it is hung for a long time, it will definitely induce anxiety. ”

-- This is a fast-paced student who speaks clearly and reacts quickly, and seems to be a top student in psychology.

Lin Jian smiled: "Obviously, the steel knife did not cause physical harm to the human body, what really damaged the human body was the fear brought by seeing the steel knife every day." The principles of Feng Shui are also relatively similar - perhaps some of the patterns may not seem harmless to you, just as a hanging steel knife is not harmful to the human body. However, the negative effects of these patterns can damage people's spirits and imperceptibly harm the human body. ”

The tall crown groaned. After a while, he asked again.

"I'm afraid Sir's theory doesn't make sense, right? The steel knife hanging from the top of the bed is a visual source of fear and horror, which in turn damages the body. In other words, if a blind person is under a steel knife, he will naturally be at peace and unaffected. Now, in my husband's opinion, it is not the physical object that can be touched and perceived such as a steel knife that affects the fortune of the human body, but the ethereal layout of the house - the owner is not even aware of the change in layout, how can he be affected by it? ”

Send sub-questions.

Lin Jian's smile became more sincere, and he slowed down: "Yes-the various layouts of the houses and the various changes in the topography are indeed difficult for people to see, smell, and touch, but is there only these kinds of perceptions in the human body?" Mr. Gao has been in the world for a long time, and naturally knows all kinds of incredible things in the world: when a loved one who is thousands of miles away dies, even if he is ignorant, he will be sad and frightened for no reason; When something ominous is about to happen, even without warning, the heart is pounding and the mind is restless. The human senses are subtle and complex, and I am afraid that they cannot be summed up in a few words. Thousands of miles apart can still perceive each other, let alone a residential house that gets along with each other in daily life and lives for a long time? ”

He has been thinking about these words for a long time, and now he is telling them eloquently and explaining them one by one, which is indeed quite convincing. The tall crown was dumbfounded.

After being silent for a few seconds, Gao Daguan turned his head and glanced at Lu Yang.

He coughed slightly.

"Mr. Lin's explanation was really eye-opening and eye-opening." He said slowly, "But it's just an ethereal explanation, and it can't hold up after all...... I wonder if Mr. Lin can demonstrate the effectiveness of 'Feng Shui' for us? ”

Although he had expected it, Lin Jian still couldn't help but want to roll his eyes.

That's right, in the conversation a day ago, Mr. Su had already taught him earnestly: the royal family has strict rules, a strong bureaucratic atmosphere, and everyone is afraid of taking responsibility. Even if he says something fanciful, the Secretary General for Royal Affairs will definitely ask for "seeing is believing".

- But, but, how can you ask me to give you a thing like feng shui that has been working for many years? Of course, the Feng Shui Bureau that worked on the spot is not nothing, Secretary-General, can you find me a dead body of a coffin cub? I promise to let the three of them ascend to heaven on the spot, not a second of delay!

The layman is angry with the insider, I'll go for it!

Lin Jian was taking a deep breath, and it was easy for him to suppress the urge to complain, and put on a smiling face.

"Absolutely."

He reached into the drawer and pulled out the hamsters and rocks that he had prepared.

Of course, Feng Shui can't be effective immediately, but Qimen Dunjia can.

-- Qimen Dunjia, written by Xuanyuan Yellow Emperor in ancient times, was extinct at the end of the Qin Dynasty due to the difficulty of book burning. Zhang Liang of the Western Han Dynasty learned the art of war from Huangshi Gong, and there were a few fragments of Dunjia in the book, which were transmitted to the Three Kingdoms, and vibrated by the hands of Wuhou, and got the name of the world. After that, the art of Dunjia was dispersed, and in modern times, it became an insignificant small spell.

However, no matter how insignificant a small spell is, it can deal with a mouse.

Three men, with three gray-haired heads, were pressed against each other, staring intently at the scattered stones on the table, and the hamsters whirling in the stones. This was unusual: with the experience and prestige of the trio, they should have kept their composure and composure about the Yiqiē (in fact, for the first five minutes, until they saw the hamsters in the bobbles start staggering, start spinning in circles, and start rolling on the ground).

Now, all three of them were staring at the stone, and the poor hamster in the middle of the stone. The hamster had already turned fifteen times in place, and it obviously didn't want to make the sixteenth turn. The hamster turned its head from side to side, and finally bravely climbed the stone beside it, and its two short front paws grabbed the sharp edge of the stone hard, and began to jump and jump hard.

One hop.

Two hops.

Triple jump.

After three jumps, the hamster couldn't jump the short, small, thin, short stone that had just reached its chest!

The tall crown gasped. He slowly looked up, only to see a slender, thin finger.

Lin Jian slowly pushed a small piece of gravel two inches to the left.

With a thud, the hamster slammed over the rock, which had been strong before, and it rolled down violently, tumbling out of the pile of stones. The hamster looked left and right and jumped off the table in a hurry.

"What do you think?"
