The 379th Moon, in the middle of the heavens

The three hundred and seventy-ninth round

There are many talented people in Chang'an City who can read elephant fortune-telling, but few of them can understand the prophecy that pops up overnight.

Originally, the Tianfeng hexagram referred to the sign of yin and yang decline, but the prophecy associated it with the fruit, mixed with strange numbers, stumped those who claimed to have "knowledge of astronomy and geography".

Zhou Yi is based on the art of numbers, and if he can't know its meaning, he is still a layman who can't peek into the secrets of the Heavenly Dao.

Yesterday, Qin Ying heard the content of this prophecy, so he copied it on a silk book and pasted it on the door of the Sanqing Palace, allowing the Taoists to watch it during their leisure time.

After Qin Ying served as the master of the view, he taught them a lot of things step by step, but he did not get involved in the Zhou Yi gossip and the sixty-four hexagrams derived after deduction. Because Qin Ying felt that this was a crooked way.

I remember that when I was a child, my sister didn't mention to her that fortune-telling can be used to measure fortunes, and Qin Ying was also happy to put stones every day to know how to count, and later she worshiped the god Ning Fengzi of Zhangren Mountain as a teacher, he didn't urge her to learn this and that, and guided what she liked to teach, so that Qin Ying wandered carefree for a hundred years.

Later, Qin Ying went down the mountain to enter the WTO and met Yuan Laodao, who was proficient in fortune-telling and appearance, but he didn't learn his housekeeping skills at all. Although he saw Qin Ying as a cultivator, he couldn't leave her in the Qingyang Shop in Chengdu Mansion, Yizhou, and in more than ten days, she just became familiar and got the reputation of a cheap master.

When Qin Ying was in Chang'an Xuandu Guan, she saw that the viewer would take chess pieces to divination, and she admired it very much for a while, and asked the viewer how to learn divination, and the viewer asked her to observe the price of rice shops in the east and west markets. The price of rice in the market is controlled by the Department of Parity, but the price of rice still ranges from 3 to 5 yuan.

She carefully observed the rice shop for a long time, and gradually learned to estimate the price fluctuations of the rice shop. However, it is still far from accurate divination.

After teaching her how to shake the chips, Qin Ying practiced according to the method for more than half a month, and felt that it was very boring, and it was not beneficial to practice, so she stopped halfway through, and did not spread the divination widely.

She didn't want to predict the future like ordinary people. If you know that your luck is not good, do you still have the courage to face it? If you know that the luck is going well, is there anything you can do?

It is precisely because of ignorance of the future that we will walk fearlessly.

Seeing that Li Chunfeng knew that he would not do anything in the future, Qin Ying strengthened his idea that divination was useless.

If you see through the heavens, you don't dare to change it, so it's better not to see it from the beginning.

Although Qin Ying's attitude towards prophecy was tepid, some Taoists were extremely curious.

Guangping Taoist people learned the half-hung fortune-telling skills from the former master, and they stood out among the brothers, uncles and nephews. Qin Ying asked him to keep the account of the Taoist temple, which can be said to be just right. He presided over the meditation with a bamboo plank, walked among the various futons, and from time to time glanced at the silk book, inadvertently showing an absent-minded appearance.

Qin Ying discovered this detail when he came to inspect the Sanqing Palace, and jokingly asked him during a break to know what the number of this ode represented.

Song said: All things are born in the soil, and the twenty-nine come into fruition first. Unification of the Central Plains, Yin and Yang are exhausted first.

Guangping Daoist dipped his finger in the water and wrote on the table one by one: "The second is an even number, and nine is the supreme." ”

She silently looked at the fading water, and thought that there were just two people in the palace who were enough to be worthy of the emperor. One is His Majesty, and the other is the Emperor.

As the old saying goes, one mountain cannot tolerate two tigers, and now that the two saints are shining on the great rivers and mountains, this situation will not last long.

Guangping Daoist didn't look up to see how Qin Ying's expression was, and wrote in smooth small letters: "The country is stable, and the moon is in the sky." I didn't want Qin Ying to stretch out his hand and wipe the last sentence.

Qin Ying could see that the moon and the sky were euphemisms for the power of the red face. reflexively thought that he was still an official in the court dressed as a man, and he was a little uneasy for a while.

She dressed as a man just for safety reasons, and had no ambition to fight for anything. Now I am very content to be in the middle to upper official position from the fifth grade, and I have never thought that there will be any further development in my career, let alone the ridiculous thing of seeking the world.

Now Jiangshan's surname is Li Mingtang, and she has not forgotten it since she entered the WTO.

She didn't think that some women, even if they were in the harem, would still be able to put a man's front court in the palm of their hands.

The Guangping Daoist saluted her and left, Qin Ying watched in a daze as the water trails dissipated into the sunlight and dust, and she felt that the prophecy was untrue.

……

His Majesty heard this prophecy in the early dynasties, and after the two dynasties dispersed, he asked Li Chunfeng to stay and solve his doubts.

Li Chunfeng looked embarrassed, and the prophecy was made by him and his master Yuan Laodao, who was on the spot of wine watching the sky. Li Chunfeng drank happily and wrote sixty poems in one go, and Yuan Laodao pinched the pen and paper beside him, and smiled and groaned with the ugly illustrations one by one.

The next day, Li Chunfeng went to the court with a headache after a hangover, and in the afternoon, Yuan Laodao took one of the silk books written by Li Chunfeng and went to a teahouse in Xishi, boasting that this was a prophecy for judging future world affairs.

Yuan Laodao, who spread the fallacy, also kept Li Chunfeng in the dark. It wasn't until Li Chunfeng and his colleagues went to Xishi to drink tea that they heard a group of people foaming at the mouth and making all kinds of arguments about the "prophetic poem", Li Chunfeng immediately said that he had lost his company in the family beforehand, hurriedly returned to the house, and confronted the master who was sitting in the backyard room with great vigour.

Yuan Laodao is worthy of being a real person who has cultivated to the realm of incarnation, seeing Li Chunfeng's appearance is angry and corrupt, he can still say without changing his face: "I saw the handwriting of the silk book you wrote, quite Wei and Jin style, so I took it to the West Market and sold it, who knew that it was not worth a penny, I threw it at the door of the teahouse, and probably picked it up later. ”

Li Chunfeng covered his forehead and thought, Master, you are a bastard liar.

Yuan Laodao squinted at Li Chun and said coolly: "Behind his back, he said bad things about being a teacher. A few days ago, I don't know who drank too much, and I had to write poems about the moon at night, but after watching the moon and looking at the stars, a certain poet who was full of poetry wrote a bunch of prophetic hymns with uneven rhymes. I've written 60 songs, but it's not enough. I pushed you twice on the back before I went back to sleep. ”

waited for Li Chunfeng to spend a moment recalling the terrible master, and then bowed to Li Shimin and said:

"I am ashamed to teach my master, I have forgotten Zhou Yi completely in these years in the Taishi Bureau, and now I don't know much about this day's wind and concubine, and I can't share my worries and relieve your majesty. However, Lord Qin of Xihuaguan is said to be a disciple of the Xuandu Guanzhu, and if His Majesty orders her to see it, she may be able to know the meaning of the prophecy. ”
