Chapter 1 OO Celestial Phenomena

"Cao Sitian really knows it, although I am not talented, I also like this astronomical divination, a few days ago, I was too idle to watch the celestial phenomena at night, but I never thought that there was a difference in the southern celestial phenomena, because I was not good at learning and I was afraid that I would see the mistake, I hoped that Cao Sitian would take a closer look at it again."

"South?" After hearing Qin Shujiu's words, Cao Sitian frowned at first and thought for a while, and finally suddenly understood, never expecting that the person Qin Shujiu moved was actually that person. Because he understood the meaning of Qin Shujiu, Cao Sitian's complexion immediately changed, so he knelt down directly and then said: "Beauty, the minister really doesn't dare to do this matter, if someone else arrives, it can be said, but that person, that person's position, that is not something that the minister can move." ”

The power of the person Qin Shujiu refers to is really high, how can he, the little Taishi Bureau, Si Tianjian act rashly, and immediately Cao Sitian also asked Qin Shujiu to withdraw this matter, but since this matter has already been said, how can Qin Shujiu be withdrawn. Cao Sitian knelt down and Qin Shujiu didn't rush to get him up, but ate tea slowly, and after looking at it, Qin Shujiu said, "Can't move?" What can't be moved? ”

"Beauty, that person, that person is the king of the south, how can the king of the south be ......"

"It's true that King Nan is not a courtier who can act at will, but Cao Sitian won't think that the person who wants to move him is me." Suddenly, a sentence directly cut off all Cao Sitian's next remarks, and directly made Cao Sitian break off his words, Qin Shujiu said: "I have only been in the palace for more than a year, and I have no grievances with others in the past, how can I rise to the heart of harming others?" Besides, the king of the south is the prince, the sixth emperor brother of His Majesty, no matter how this prince is, it is impossible for this prince to have a holiday with my harem concubines. After a slight pause, and then looking at Cao Sitian, Qin Shujiu replied.

"King Nan is His Majesty's younger brother. With an army of 100,000 on the southern border, he can be regarded as a general with real power in the country, and when His Majesty ascended the throne, the King of the South helped His Majesty a lot. ”

He is the prince, the prince who holds the power of the army, and she is just one of the beauties in the harem, and it is indeed impossible to have a grudge with the king of the south. And the king of the south, as the prince, holds the power of the army. In addition, he is a scheming and ambitious person. If such a person is left by his side for a long time, he will not be able to keep it, and the calamity will rise to the side. My Fair Lady does have no grievances with the King of the South, but His Majesty of the current dynasty is ......

Mo saw that Qin Shujiu's words were smiling with his eyebrows and slightly teasing, but in fact, the deep meaning hidden in those words was chilling. At the moment, Cao Sitian is also clear.

His complexion changed suddenly. Cao Sitian said: "The meaning of beauty." Could it be ......"

"What can I mean, it's just to tell the truth to Cao Sitian, as for the twists and turns in the cause and effect, it is a matter for a smart person like Cao Sitian. I don't see anything. But to be honest, if it weren't for the mother's notice, even if it was such a truth, I couldn't see it, so I could only see the most superficial things. Looking at Cao Sitian with a light smile, Qin Shujiu said, but Cao Sitian also asked softly.

"Mother?"

"Yes, Concubine Xian, Concubine Xian Niangniang is the person on the tip of His Majesty's heart, and he understands the holy will and understands the sacred heart, if it wasn't for Niangniang mentioning it, how could I see the doorway in this."

This melodious sentence is to push everything on Concubine Hou Xian, she is just a little concubine, even if she has any meaning, it is also the meaning of the top, she is a messenger. If Qin Shujiu wanted to move that person, Cao Sitian would not dare to respond, but if there were still two principals behind him, he would have nothing to fear, and he knew everything at the moment, Cao Sitian said.

"Since this is the case, the minister will report it truthfully, and he will report the events of the heavenly phenomena to His Majesty according to the truth, but it is just ......"

"As long as Cao Sitian tells the truth in front of His Majesty, I will definitely ensure that Lang is safe and sound."

"Since the beauty has said, the minister will also be at ease, the minister has been thinking about coming to His Majesty and Prince Han for a long time, and the game between the minister and Prince Han is over, and the minister will go to restore his life now."

"Cao Sitian walks slowly."

He got up and bowed slightly, and waited for Cao Sitian to leave, Qin Shujiu got up, and then looked at his departing figure. The figure of the person disappeared from view, and Nanzhi stepped forward and said, "Sister, what about Cao Dongliang?" ”

"When this thing is done, people will send Cao Gongzi out intact, since it is Cao Sitian, how can he break his promise? This Cao Sitian may come in handy in the future, but we can't make Si Tian's heart chill. After speaking, Nanzhi said, but after speaking, he asked again: "What about the others?" After the inquiry, Qin Shujiu said, "Other people? Of course you can't stay. ”

Cao Dongliang is just a chess piece, and he has indeed been tricked and framed from beginning to end, and he doesn't know much and is the lifeblood of Old Madam Cao, threatening the necessity of Cao Sitian's cooperation, such a person must of course ensure that his life is worry-free. As for the others, although they all took silver taels to do things, but this silver taels is not perfect after all, and if you want to confirm one thing, you still have to seal it forever.

If you want to achieve great things, you must be ruthless, and after speaking, Qin Shujiu said lightly: "If it's weird, blame them for being greedy for money, and they can't complain." ”

After returning to the imperial garden, he waited quietly for a while before he saw the door of the Yanying Hall open, and Lihan walked out of the hall, still the chic and casual of the same faction, but the prince had no posture. Cao Sitian, who had already been waiting outside the hall, stepped forward to salute, raised his hand to signal that Cao Sitian did not need to be polite, and Li Han said: "Cao Sitian has been edicted to see the emperor's brother?" Cao Si Tianli said: "Prince Huihan's words are exactly. Suddenly nodded in response, and then said: "I didn't know that Cao Sitian had arrived, but I told Cao Sitian to wait for a long time, these days the imperial brother is the rise of chess skills, that is, to summon the king into the palace to accompany the next few games, who knows that today's game is also difficult to solve, I think that Yu Gonggong also doesn't want to disturb the imperial brother's Yaxing, but asked Cao Sitian to wait for a long time." ”

When he replied with a smile, he was also casual and tight, and even if he called Cao Sitian to be busy, he said: "The prince is really serious, Your Majesty is busy with government affairs on weekdays, and it is rare to have a few free days to go to a few rounds, so what does the minister mean to wait for a long time." After speaking, he bowed, but Li Han didn't answer but smiled, and then said: "This patronizing and talking to Cao Sitian forgot about the imperial brother or is he waiting inside?" Cao Sitian still entered the palace first, so as not to upset the imperial brother for a while. ”

"Whoa."

After the ceremony, the marquis was on the side, and it was not until after Lihan left that Cao Sitian entered the Yanying Palace. Li Qing in the hall was sitting on the seat, at this time he was frowning and studying the chess game on the chess surface, thinking that today's chess game was a few defeats to Prince Han, and at this time he was sitting there thinking about where the layout went wrong.

Although Liqing is a pilgrimage, he is not a conceited and holy person, if he is not enough to others, he also recognizes it, and has never been annoyed because others are better than himself, at least in this chess game, even if he loses to Prince Han nine times out of ten, he is not angry or impatient but often meditates on it. It is because of this that the reputation of this holy king is in full bloom among the government and the opposition. His subjects all said that he was the king of the prosperous country.

After Cao Sitian entered the palace, Liqing was still studying in the foregone conclusion, but he didn't pay attention to his arrival. However, Yu Shan on the side was also afraid that Cao Sitian would disturb the saint, so he shook his head lightly and signaled him to wait for the time being. This wait was half a cup of tea, and it wasn't until Liqing saw the doorway of the chess game that he noticed that Cao Sitian was already waiting on the side. Putting down the chess in his hand and then glancing at Yu Shan, Liqing asked, "What happened?" ”

"Back to Your Majesty's words. I waited for half a cup of tea. ”

"Why don't you give birth when it's already here?" Yu Shan replied: "The old minister didn't look at His Majesty's careful study, so he couldn't bear to disturb His Majesty's interest. He smiled as he spoke. For Yu Shan's friendly smile that always hangs on his face, Liqing has nothing to do with him. At that moment, he glanced at him and then let Cao Sitian get up, and was looking at Cao Sitian on the seat, Liqing said: "Cao Qing enters the palace." What's going on. ”

After Liqing asked, Cao Sitian replied respectfully: "Today is the day of the celestial phenomena and the moon, and the ministers enter the palace to play the celestial phenomena. "Every month, Si Tianjian must enter the palace to give gifts to the heavens, which is a rule left by the ancestors, so as not to miss the opportunity before anyone has a bad heart and does not take a step forward to explore the will of tomorrow. Now when Cao Sitian entered the palace, Liqing is chin head signaled him to come, but after the chin head, he saw Cao Sitian kneeling down and bowing, and then said.

"Your Majesty, the minister has been watching the sky at night recently, and I am afraid that the sky is abnormal, and the purple micro is moving and there are stars in the sky, I am afraid that it is a great evil." After speaking, he bowed and knelt down, and Cao Sitian said straightly. Ziwei Xing is the emperor star, Ziwei abnormal movement means that the incumbent is in danger, and that Xingxiao is a big murderer, and there are stars who think about it, which means that someone in the court has moved his mind. When he heard that Cao Sitian had given this celestial phenomenon in the past month, Liqing was speechless, his eyes suddenly drooped and then looked at Cao Sitian, and suddenly he was silent and made the hall sink, and even Yu Shan's heart sank, that is, he looked at Liqing's face and then looked at Cao Sitian who was kneeling on the ground, Yu Shan said busily.

"Cao Sitian, you can see it clearly."

After Yu Shan's questioning, Cao Sitian hurriedly responded: "This matter is very important, and the ministers should see it as if it were true, these days have been such strange celestial phenomena, ministers, I am afraid that someone in the court has bad intentions." ”

If no one has bad intentions, how can Zi Weixing move? It was because of Cao Sitian's words that Liqing's complexion sank a lot, and the abnormal complexion made Yu Shan on the side a little worried, so he stepped forward and said softly, "Your Majesty." This voice called Liqing's eyes changed slightly, and then looked at Cao Sitian, Liqing asked, "Where did Xingxiao come from?" ”

"This ......"

There was something strange in the sky, Cao Sitian said, but when Liqing asked where the fierce star came from, he was a little hesitant in his words. It was this unnatural lightness that made Liqing's face sink directly, and he asked sharply: "I asked you, didn't you hear?" ”

"Your Majesty forgives you." Liqing was furious, the courtiers were panicked, and then Cao Sitian lay on the ground and then said in fear: "Your Majesty is angry, the star, the star is from, it is from the ......" There is still a little hesitation, but after this hesitation, Cao Sitian finally said: "The star is coming from the south to attack Ziwei, and Ziwei has the image of a big shift." ”

"Bold." As soon as he finished saying this, he made Yu Shan shout, and actually said that Ziweixing had the appearance of a big shift, which didn't mean that the Liqing throne was in danger, and someone wanted to usurp the throne? Such words are absolutely unspeakable, and Yu Shan scolded loudly at the moment, but Yu Shan was moved by a rare anger because of Cao Sitian's words, but Liqing was a little quieter than Fang Cai's expression. is silent but sits on the seat and looks at Cao Sitian, such a pair of eagle-like eyes are hooked on Cao Sitian's body, as if he wants to dig out two holes in his body.

The awe-inspiring ruthlessness in his eyes and the hegemonic aura of the emperor himself made Cao Sitian's body tremble, and Cao Sitian at this time should have a little regret, knowing that he should not have done anything about Qin Shujiu. It's just that now that the words have come out, if you take it back, you will inevitably end up in the name of a bully, but it is even more difficult to escape the death penalty, even though Cao Sitian was panicked in his heart at this time, he still had to grit his teeth and be firm in his words.

Such a frightening direct gaze did not last long, and after staring at it so fiercely, Liqing asked, "Cao Sitian, can you see it really?" ”

"Your Majesty, the minister knows the importance of this matter, and he must see it as true."

"Really?" Responding gently, the tone was so light that people couldn't hear what Liqing's mood was at this time, it was such a light response, Liqing suddenly asked: "Nanfang, if I remember correctly, then Nanwang seems to have Nanwang's 100,000 army?" After Liqing asked, Yu Shan replied: "It seems that the division led by King Nan back then is now stationed in Nanjing. ”

"I see." After nodding his head, Liqing didn't say much, but leaned his elbow on the desk to support his chin and thought deeply. Liqing didn't dare to speak anymore, and Cao Sitian knelt there and didn't dare to move, until Liqing looked back after thinking about it, and then got up under Liqing's signal. After getting up, he still stood there, and waited for Liqing to look up and down before leaving the Yanying Hall under Liqing's instructions.

Liqing can be regarded as ordering him to retreat, and Cao Sitian even bowed to the Housheng and retreated, and only breathed a sigh of relief until the temple gate prescription. Just in the hall, he was shocked into a cold sweat, he had never been so afraid, at that time, he really thought that His Majesty would see through something on the spot when he saw that he had framed the King of the South, and such cold eyes really made Cao Sitian feel that he had no life to come back alive.

But fortunately, in the end, Liqing still didn't suspect him, and he was shocked in a cold sweat in vain.

After waiting for Cao Sitian to withdraw from the Yanying Palace, the hall was still gloomy and quiet, and Liqing didn't make a sound, and Yu Shan didn't dare to speak, so he waited carefully to the side, waited for Liqing's body to move, and then said: "Yu Shan, what do you think about this?" ”

"Your Majesty, the old minister doesn't understand this celestial phenomenon."

After Liqing asked, Yu Shan answered with a wry smile, but avoided answering what Liqing asked, this major event above the court, especially when it comes to the dangerous throne, he doesn't dare to say anything. Knowing that Yu Shan's mouth could not get an accurate answer, Liqing didn't ask any more, just looked sideways and then said.

"The defenders of the Southern Mirror? King of the South? After whispering, Liqing said: "I often heard that Nanjing had some changes before, but I didn't cause any trouble to me, so I didn't put it on my heart, but I didn't expect that I didn't put it in my heart, but someone remembered." Hmph, King Nan, what a King of South. ”

This cold snort is to understand the meaning of Liqing, and it also makes Yu Shan know that King Nan, and His Majesty is afraid that he will not be able to stay in his heart. The more he thought about it, the more cold his eyes became, and Liqing said coldly: "It seems that he can't sit still." (To be continued.) )
