Chapter 3 Serial (Big Bowl Asking for Subscription)
The floating dust in the pillar of light rolled as if it was boiling, echoing around the beam, and Zhang Qian's pupils quickly shrank into a needle with the echo.
He suddenly found that the court discussion seemed to be less boring, and he finally found some political doorways.
Previously, the "Cultivators" launched continuous attacks, which seemed to have fierce firepower, but in fact, most of the time they were building momentum. At this moment, the momentum has been sufficient, and the "maintenance faction" has been exhausted all day long, and it has already been exhausted. The "Calendar Cultivators" finally sacrificed the long-prepared killer move!
This killer move is "Nine Calendars".
Although it was the first time for Zhang Qian to hear the name of this calendar, he could hear from Ji Chune's confident words that the fit between this calendar and the changes in the heavens should far exceed the "Lin De Calendar" that the Tang Dynasty was running. Therefore, as long as the "maintenance faction" headed by Wei Juyuan dares to agree to compare, the "revision faction" will win!
His gaze quickly turned to the "maintenance faction", and Zhang Qian was very much looking forward to the reaction of these people. However, he was disappointed to find that most of the "maintenance faction", even including the head of the Hun Tian Prison, Jia Ye Zhizhong himself, hung their heads and did not dare to make any response.
Only the three products under the Tongping Zhang, who have long passed the ancient age, the secretary and supervisor Wei Juyuan himself, are struggling to support himself with a sweat: "The calendar is a heavy weapon involving national fortune and people's livelihood, how can it be used for gambling?" The "Nine Calendars" you mentioned, the old man has also read some of the contents, and it does have its own uniqueness. However, its explanation of astrological luck is completely Buddhist, and it is contrary to the Book of Changes, or even diametrically opposed! ”
This time, Zhang Qian understood again, and was stunned for a moment. The explanation of the changes in the celestial phenomena in the "Nine Executing Calendar" will correspond to the Buddhist scriptures, and the guiding theory of the "Lin De Calendar" is actually the Book of Changes!
No wonder Wei Juyuan and others, knowing the flaws of the "Lin De Calendar", still refused to give an inch to the "Calendar Revision School". What the two sides are fighting for, where is the revision of the calendar? What the two sides are fighting for is clearly the right to interpret celestial phenomena!
Back then, when Dong Zhongshu admonished Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty to respect Confucianism, he put forward a complete set of philosophical theories of heaven and man induction. Since then, the emperors and courtiers of successive dynasties, even if they have doubts about this set of theories in their hearts, will still take it as a guideline on the surface! When encountering indecision on a certain decision, the emperor and his courtiers will invariably choose to understand the so-called "providence" by observing the stars, and then forcibly promote their own political opinions under the guise of "providence"!
A shivering sensation suddenly surged from the tail vertebrae and reached the top of Zhang Qian's head. After studying philosophy in college for four years, it was only now that he finally discovered where this subject came into play, and felt the great power of this subject up close!
This is an invisible sword, whoever you want to kill, you won't see any blood at all!
If the changes in the celestial phenomena are no longer explained by the Book of Changes, but replaced with another philosophical system based on or related to the Buddhist scriptures, from now on, it will be easy for Zong Chuke and others to make any political opponent unlucky!
After all, the "Nine Calendars" was first introduced by the "Calendar Revision School" headed by Zong Chuke, and they studied this set of calendars and related interpretation theories earlier and more solidly than any other faction in the court. In the future, any astronomical changes in the sky, especially uncommon astronomical phenomena such as solar eclipses, comets, and large meteor showers, can be associated with someone or something in the real world! At that time, whoever they want to die, the other party will basically be in danger!
This kind of precedent is not unprecedented, during the Zhenguan period, the Tai Bai Xing frequently appeared during the day, and the conclusion calculated by the Hun Tianjian is that this celestial phenomenon indicates that "the heroine Chang almost caused Li Shimin to kill in the harem." Thanks to the Taishi at that time, Li Chunfeng was kind, and the celestial phenomenon had been completed, killing this woman would inevitably cause a greater disaster, so Li Shimin temporarily suppressed the killing thought.
A year later, Li Junxian, the prince of Wulian County, was innocently killed because his name was Wuniangzi!
A few years later, Wu Zetian usurped the position of his son Li Xian, and the astrological sign of "Heroine Chang" played a role in people's hearts at that time that could not be underestimated! (Note: This matter is recorded in the "Old Tang Book")
……
Inside the pillar of light, the floating dust rolls like a stormy wave.
The evening breeze slowly blew into the Zichen Hall through the window, making Zhang Qian feel that his back was cold.
He understood, really understood.
In today's battle in the court, there is no sword or sword. But it was more exciting than all the war blockbusters he had seen in another time and space before.
Once Wei Juyuan can't parry and let the opponent successfully replace the "Lin De Calendar" with the "Nine Execution Calendar", it will inevitably lead to a complete purge of the Hun Tianjian. From top to bottom, there are people in Zongchuke's pockets. After all, in the past, the observers of the Hun Tianjian used the philosophical ideas and algorithm system in the "Lin De Calendar" as theoretical guidance. Switching to a different set of theories and algorithms, they will definitely be difficult to adapt!
And after Zong Chuke took control of the Heavenly Prison, he could use the changes in the heavens at any time to attack the opponent. Its opponent, no matter how he defends himself, it is difficult to catch the "providence" of this 10,000-ton boulder!
Even, no, it is 100 percent, the power of Buddhism will return to the Tang Dynasty. Let the previous efforts of the Confucian disciples and the Divine Dragon Emperor Li Xian be ruined.
The "Nine Calendars" was translated to the Tang Dynasty along with the Buddhist scriptures. The interpretation of the "Nine Persistent Calendar" is inseparable from Buddhist scriptures or Buddhist philosophy. And who can compare to the understanding and mastery of Buddhist scriptures and Buddhist philosophy compared to those monks?! As the masters of the theory, they were announced to the court to solve the doubts of the emperor and his ministers, and it was logical from then on!
……
"Lin De Calendar" to the month of the month without the middle of the air to intercalation, a year to set 24 solar terms, 72 months, all of which correspond to the changes in the atmosphere of Guanzhong. Since its promulgation, agriculture has not violated the time, and there is a surplus of grain every year. Wei Juyuan's words came to Zhang Qian's ears one after another, weak and aging, and it has completely become the last struggle.
And Ji Chu Ne, smiled slightly, and the victory was in his hands, "The earth qi is also born in response to the celestial phenomena, if the observation of the celestial phenomena is not accurate, how can the earth qi be accurate." It's still useful at the moment, but the error hasn't been revealed."
"This, this ......" Wei Juyuan trembled with anger, but he couldn't find enough reason to refute. After all, the reaction of the "Lin De Calendar" even to the change of the moon phase is wrong, and the other party only needs to grasp this point, which can make all his justifications pale and weak.
"Wei Zhengjian's worries are not unreasonable!" The right servant Xiao Zhizhong belonged to the third-party heavy faction, and he couldn't bear to continue to watch Wei Juyuan lose his life, and he went down to support him, "Then the "Nine Calendars" comes from Tianzhu, why don't Tianzhu go to Chang'an?" The difference between the climate and Chang'an must be no less than that between Chang'an and Lingnan? Using the calendar of Tianzhu to mark the solar terms, I am afraid that it will delay the agricultural time. ”
"What's so hard about that!" Zong Chuke had already prepared, and immediately took over the conversation with a smile, "The "Lin De Calendar" is accurate to the solar terms, and the "Lin De Calendar" will be used to guide the agricultural time in the future, so that the people will not make mistakes in farming. The "Nine Calendars" are accurate in observing celestial phenomena, and in the future, the "Nine Calendars" will be used to observe celestial phenomena, so that the imperial court will obey the will of heaven. Wouldn't that be the best of both worlds? ”
"Advance two retreat one, such as a fake exchange of advance two retreat one! This guy, at the beginning of the fight, should not be ready to completely overthrow the "Lin De Calendar", but want to firmly grasp the part of the interpretation of the celestial phenomena in his own hands! A flash of inspiration flashed in his mind again, and Zhang Qian once again understood Zong Chuke's true plan.
At the beginning, this person was not ready to overthrow the "Lin De Calendar" completely, but only wanted to firmly grasp the right to observe and interpret celestial phenomena in his hands. The reason why this person and his minions put on a posture of not completely abolishing the "Lin De Calendar" and vowing not to give up is for this step.
If the "maintenance faction" does not let go, it will face endless attacks and the risk of total defeat. If each side took a step back, it would be equivalent to splitting the work of the Heavenly Prison in two. The part related to the solar term agricultural time is still under the "maintenance faction". The part related to celestial phenomena and national politics was cut off by the "Calendar Revision School".
Quickly turning his gaze to Li Xian, Zhang Qian expected that the Shenlong Emperor would clearly see the plot of Zong Chuke and the others, and decisively stop it. However, he found that Li Xian, the Dragon Emperor of Yingtian, seemed to have nothing to do with him, sitting comfortably on his own dragon chair, holding a tea cup in his hand, and was drinking well. And a full-time little eunuch is still carrying a teapot, ready to refill water for him at any time.
"Could it be that the emperor has already recognized the actions of Zong Chuke and others!" In the next moment, Zhang Qian was frightened. However, he soon overturned this judgment.
Expelling the power of Buddhism from the court was done by Li Xian. As an emperor, Li Xian was suspicious and fickle and lacked responsibility. However, there is absolutely no lack of political wisdom and skill. I will not sit idly by and watch someone use the problem of inaccurate calendar to destroy the results of their previous efforts!
"Cough, cough, cough, cough......" Just when he was puzzled, a low cough suddenly sounded in front of him, followed by the Zhongshu Ling Yang Qi slowly stood up from the embroidery pier and bowed deeply to the queen of the imperial case: "Holy Lord, the words of Xiao Servant and the Sect Servant, the old ministers have understood." The old minister has some shallow opinions, I don't know if I can take it out and throw bricks and jade! ”
"Is there a way to do it?" Li Xian had great respect for Yang Qi, immediately put down the teacup, smiled and nodded lightly, "Just say it!" I knew that the Chinese book made the old horse know the way, and he would definitely be able to think of the best of both worlds! ”
"Thank you!" Yang Qi saluted Li Xian again, and then added with a smile: "The old minister has just remembered history, and since the Han Dynasty, at least fifteen calendars have been adopted. Among them, the longest interval between use is the quarter calendar, which is about 300 years before and after. The shortest-lived calendar was abolished in less than two years. It can be seen that the revision of the calendar is the most normal thing, and it is not worth making a fuss! ”
"Huh?" Li Xian's eyes flickered, thoughtful.
The "Calendar Cultivation Sect" led by Zong Chuke didn't expect the old fox Yang Qi to fall to his side so quickly, and they were all overjoyed one by one. The "maintenance faction" led by Wei Juyuan and the cautious faction led by Xiao Zhizhong all frowned.
However, before they could think of whether to express their support or opposition, the fox Yang Qi preemptively pulled the conversation back, "However, Xiao Fu's concern is also reasonable, the people take food as the sky." After all, the "Nine Calendars" comes from Tianzhu, in case the water and soil are not adapted. Making the common people hungry must not be the original intention of the sect servants! ”
"Yes, both positive and negative, and let you tell you all the time. You really can't offend anyone! Zhang Qian secretly wondered when he heard this, looked at Yang Qi, and couldn't tell whether he admired more or disdainful more.
As if sensing his gaze, the old fox Yang Qi suddenly turned his head to look at him, and the corners of his mouth rose slightly. Immediately, he coughed lightly a few times and continued to add, "The calendar should be in response to the celestial phenomena, and when the agriculture is introduced, the world is indispensable every day." Zongzhong had previously suggested that the Tianzhu calendar should be introduced in response to the will of Heaven. Leave the "Lin De Calendar" to follow the earth's qi, this method is wonderful. However, Lao Chen thought that instead of making the two sets of calendars parallel, it was better to combine them into one! ”
This point of view is indeed novel, and it has made many people's eyes light up. However, after the light passed, most people's eyes quickly dimmed again.
It's easy to say that the two are one. When it comes to implementation, it is difficult to climb to the sky. First of all, the two calendars are based on the Book of Changes and the other on the Buddhist scriptures, and the guiding ideology is fundamentally different, so how can it be forcibly combined?
Secondly, the two calendars have different demarcation of the stars. The observation of celestial phenomena in the "Lin De Calendar" relies on the armillary zodiac, and the positioning relies on the stars visible to the naked eye in the sky. However, the "Nine Calendars", according to the content of the previous arguments between the two sides, assumes two planets in the sky with constant positions but invisible to the naked eye.
Third, it's something that almost everyone understands. The circle in the "Lin De Calendar", according to the traditional arithmetic since the Han Dynasty, is 365 degrees. However, the "Nine Calendars" calibrated the degree of the circle as 360 intels. When calculating the position of the celestial body, the angles, radians, and reference values are very different. Forced reunification will inevitably cause great chaos!
"Revising the new calendar is not an overnight task. Back then, with Li Chunfeng's ability, it took several years to gather all the wisdom of the Tang Dynasty. As if having guessed what everyone was thinking, Yang Qi deliberately took a breath and added with an extremely slow rhythm, gasping for breath, "Yes, the old minister thinks that this matter should not be rushed." In order to avoid the disaster that the new calendar is not as accurate as the old calendar, and the people are at a loss! ”
"That's why you can't easily force the two calendars together, so as not to make a big mistake!" Zong Chuke finally seized the opportunity to refute, frowned and vetoed loudly beside him.
"Don't worry, don't worry, Zongzhong, let the old man finish speaking. The old man is so old, a little, a little too late! Yang Qi glanced at the other party, gasping and waving his hand.
"Hmmm! Book Order Please! Zong Chu was polite and impatient, so he could only twist his nose and respond.
"Thank you for your understanding, people, I'm afraid of being old." In a look of doubt or admiration, the old fox raised his hand and gently hammered his waist a few times, and his voice was still unhurried, "Yes, we might as well make two interpretations of this word." The first is to revise the new calendar for future use. The other is to make repairs based on the "Lin De Calendar". In other words, it is to take the length of the "Nine Calendars" and make up for the shortcomings of the "Lin De Calendar" to make it more accurate. ”
"The "Lin De Calendar" did not jump out of thin air back then, but was the culmination of the previous generations of calendars, and added many calculation methods created by Li Chunfeng, the predecessor of Taishi Ling. Nowadays, it is not a big deal to introduce some Tianzhu algorithms. As for the explanation of celestial phenomena in the "Nine Calendars", according to the old man's opinion, there is no need. Zi said, there must be my teacher in the threesome, choose the good and follow it. didn't say that I wanted Handan to be a toddler. In case Handan doesn't learn the steps well, I won't even be able to walk, but what should I do?! ”
"This ......" was deliberately preparing for a round of attack, but it was easily split into two by the old fox, and Zong Chuke was immediately caught off guard. A pair of naked eyes blinked and blinked, but they couldn't think of a suitable response.
According to Yang Qi's proposal to revise the calendar, the "Lin De Calendar" is accurate, but the right to interpret the celestial phenomena is still left in the Hun Tianjian, and it is difficult for him to get his hands on it. Even if you barely get it, it is impossible to explain it as you want. The reason is very simple, people in the court who are familiar with the study of "Yi" will grab a lot of them, and if he is far-fetched, he will not be accepted by everyone at all.
did not agree with Yang Qi's proposal, and he couldn't find enough reasons in a short time. After all, the previous excuse for attacking the "Lin De Calendar" was the problem of accuracy, not that the "Nine Execution Calendar" was better than the "Lin De Calendar".
If the key factor of accuracy in the calculation and estimation of celestial phenomena is not considered, the advantage of the "Nine Execution Calendar" is reduced by more than half, and because it was born in Tianzhu, it is difficult to be accepted by the officials and people of the Tang Dynasty.
"Zong Shizhong, you let the old man finish his words!" As if he didn't see Zong Chuke's true intentions at all, the old fox Yang Qi breathed a sigh of relief, and once again bowed his hand to Li Xian: "Holy Lord, the biggest flaw of the old minister's view of the "Lin De Calendar" is that it is not accurate. It should not be difficult to let the Hun Tianjian refer to the Tianzhu people's method of fixing the date and the actual observation results, and re-determine the date. After re-setting, it will not take too long to recalculate the appearance time of the solar eclipse and the lunar eclipse by combining the strengths of the two parties. And so on, where it is not allowed, it will be revised. ”
"It doesn't matter if it's a Tianzhu people's method or a cannibal's method, as long as it can be used by my Datang, it is Datang's method. In the process, it was found that the method was more useful and could also be used to develop a new calendar. While tinkering, a new calendar is formulated, so that the Lin De calendar can barely support another five or six years, which should not be a problem. And after five or six years, after the new calendar is completed, the old calendar will be replaced with the new calendar, and it will be a matter of course! ”
The words fell, and there was silence all around.
Whether it was the "maintenance faction" headed by Wei Juyuan, the moderate faction led by Xiao Zhizhong, or the "Xiuli faction" led by Zong Chuke, they were all stunned and didn't know how to respond.
Only Zhang Qian, although he didn't understand astronomy, was the first to understand Yang Qian's suggestion. couldn't help but look at Lao Yang's back in his sleeves, and secretly gave a thumbs up, "High, really high." No wonder after so many storms, the position has always been as stable as Mount Tai. ”
"Although this old fox is a Tang Dynasty man, if he accidentally travels to another time and space, it is more than enough to be the CEO of a large company. Isn't the method he proposed just patching the operating system in another time and space? On the old system, patches are played one by one, regardless of whether he bought them or robbed them, everything in the world can be used as patches by me. A system of tinkering can last at least seven or eight years. Develop while patching, and when the new operating system is developed, you can upgrade directly! ”
"Ladies and gentlemen, I listened to the advice of Zhongshu Ling, and I felt that my mouth was suddenly opened, I don't know how you feel?" I didn't intend to give all parties enough time to weigh the pros and cons, Ying Tianshen Dragon Emperor Li Xian suddenly asked with a smile.
"Holy Lord, the minister also feels like an initiation!" The right servant Xiao Zhizhong has always been loyal to Li Xian, and seeing that he himself agreed with Yang Qi's proposal, he immediately bowed down to follow up.
"The saint, the minister also thinks that it is the best policy to revise the old calendar and formulate a new calendar at the same time!" Being able to ensure that the "Lin De Calendar" is not replaced by the "Nine Execution Calendar" is already the best result that the secretary and supervisor Wei Juyuan can see, and in this way, after a little weighing, he also decisively agreed.
"The original intention of the Holy Lord, the minister, is to formulate a new calendar to better deal with the celestial phenomena." A good Zongchuke, with an astonishing speed of reaction, found that the plan to partially replace the "Lin De Calendar" with the "Nine Execution Calendar" had completely failed, and immediately changed his strategy. "However, if according to the proposal of the Zhongshu Order, Hun Tianjian revises the old calendar and formulates the new calendar at the same time, it is obvious that there are not enough manpower and authority! Please also take precautions! ”
"Hmm!" Li Xian lowered his head and glanced at the officials of the Hun Tianjian who participated in the pursuit of the dynasty today, and sure enough, the faces he saw were either old or wooden, and he couldn't find anyone who could reassure him. Suddenly, he sighed and nodded.
"Holy Lord, the old minister proposed to promote the Heavenly Supervisor to the Heavenly Prison. It is independent of the secretary and superintendent, and its rank is tied with the five superintendents and nine temples. There are two signatures of Taishi and armillary sphere! Before the sigh fell, Yang Qi had already given up his hand with a smile, "In this way, choose an old and dignified virtuous minister to serve as the supervisor and take charge of the heavenly prison." He is also in charge of history and calendar. Two young and strong people were selected as juvenile prisoners and were in charge of the second department. There will be six to eight young people who will be in charge of the specific affairs of the two departments. The worries of the sect attendants can be easily solved. In the future, even if someone needs to leave temporarily halfway, they will not worry about repairing and booking the calendar halfway! ”
"Well, that's a good thing to say!" Li Xian had long been dissatisfied with the Heavenly Prison, and after listening to Yang Qi's proposal, he smiled and nodded again. Immediately, he turned his attention to the other courtiers and asked for their opinions.
The minister seconded. The revision of the calendar is very important, and the minister recommended Li Qiao, who is the third product under the same book, and concurrently serves as the third product of the Si Tianjian supervisor! The right servant shot Xiao Zhizhong, and immediately had a sense of urgency, and smiled and bowed his hand to the Ying Tian Shenlong Emperor.
"The minister seconded the proposal and recommended Dou Huaizhen as Li Qiao's deputy!" Zong Chuke was half a beat slower, but gritted his teeth and added beside him.
"The minister seconded the proposal, and recommended Cen Xi, the servant of the ministry, as Li Zhongshu's arm!" Ji Chu Ne followed Zong Chuke and recommended a second deputy to Li Qiao.
"The minister thought that Zhang Zhang, the squire of the military department, said that he was young and strong, and he was steady. He should be the first person to reformulate the calendar. ”
"Minister......
In an instant, the atmosphere in the Zichen Hall changed from boring and boring before. Several powerful ministers of the humerus have unceremoniously introduced the talents they admire.
After some verbal arguments, Li Qiao undisputedly served as the chief supervisor of Si Tianjian. Dou Huaizhen was strongly recommended by Zong Chuke to become a young eunuch and was in charge of the Taishi Department.
And Cen Xi, the servant of the ministry, could not convince the public because of his talent and conduct, and he failed to sit in the position of young eunuch. Zhang, the squire of the military department, said that because he was not liked by Zong Chuke and Ji Zhine, he was temporarily blocked outside Si Tianjian.
Because of his understanding of the importance of the right to interpret celestial phenomena, Zhang Qian was once again thrilled. Just as he was secretly applauding the political skills of several old foxes, his name faintly came to his ears, "...... The secretary and young eunuch Zhang Qian's arithmetic is unparalleled in the world. The minister implored that Zhang Qian be transferred to the position of Si Tianjian and the young eunuch, and presided over the revision of the calendar and the customization of the new calendar. The position of secretary and young eunuch is to choose someone else to take over! ”
"My God, who has such a big enmity with me?!" Zhang Qian was startled and quickly turned his head to look at the speaker. I saw the secretary and supervisor Wei Juyuan looking at himself with a smile, and the appreciation on his face was like a fake!
"This ......" Zhang Qian was so anxious that he stomped his feet, quickly turned his eyes for help to Yang Qi, shook his head and hinted: I don't want to take this job, and after I take it, I will definitely encounter a lot of trouble in the future.
Unexpectedly, the old fox Yang Qi actually smiled at him, then turned his head to Li Xian, and bowed: "Holy Lord, the old minister thinks that Wei Zhengjian has a good eye. Zhang Qian's arithmetic attainments are indeed unparalleled in the world. However, after all, he is young and lacks experience. Therefore, it is better to still be the abbot of Li Zhongshu himself, and Zhang Shuo and Zhang Qian are both based on their own positions. As for the young eunuch Si Tian, it is temporarily concurrently held by Zhang Shuo! ”
"Your old man is saving people to the end! What's the matter if it's not up or down?! Zhang Qian complained again and again in his heart, and hurriedly looked for other reinforcements with his eyes.
In all directions, there was already a voice of seconding. In the blink of an eye, his proposal to participate in the revision of the "Lin De Calendar" and the formulation of a new calendar as a secretary and young eunuch was a certainty.
This blow caught Zhang Qian off guard, and he didn't understand why the old fox only helped a small half until he dispersed. It stands to reason that even he, a rookie in officialdom, can see that it must be dangerous to be involved in the struggle for the right to interpret this kind of celestial phenomenon. With the political wisdom of the old fox Yang Qi, it is impossible to turn a blind eye to the danger?
If you can see the danger, then why does the old fox still push Zhang into the whirlpool?
He's not going to change his mind, is he? Or are you dissatisfied with some of Zhang's recent actions? So, want to take the opportunity to knock and erect the authority of the elders?
……
The more he didn't understand, the more irritable Zhang Qian became. After walking out of Daming Palace, he was not even in the mood for a carriage, and walked along the long street to his new residence in Jinchengfang.
The family Ding Zhang Gui and Xi Duorou saw that their master's face was not good, and they didn't dare to persuade them, so they could only pull the horses and follow behind. As a result, the three masters and servants walked silently one way after another, until the sky was completely dark, and they saw the door of Jinchengfang.
"Use Zhao Hao Yaxing! actually put the carriage and walked back on foot, so the old man waited for you so hard! An old voice suddenly came from the shadows under the door, with a strong smell of complaint.
"You're always looking for me?" Without looking, Zhang Qian could hear that the speaker was Yang Qi, the Chinese scholar, so he quickly cheered up and asked in a low voice.
"Let's go?" Lao Yang pulled the old horse, came out of the shadows, and sent out an invitation with a smile. Behind him, he didn't bring any guards.
"You're old and alone?" Zhang Qian was taken aback, and he didn't care about the anger of the old fox again, so he hurriedly caught up with him and took the reins of the mount from the other party's hand, "You are so bold, there will be a curfew soon." You're so old and you're alone. Even if the soldiers on the night patrol recognize you old, in case any of the ruffians don't have eyes......"
"Is the security of Chang'an City so bad? After the curfew, the old man did not dare to walk on the street? Yang Qi tilted his head to look at him and interrupted with a smile.
"Not really!" Although he has already gotten off work, the other party is a Chinese scholar after all, and Zhang Qian can't tell the truth. He glanced at his healed left leg and shook his head with a smile.
"The old man is a lot old, even if no one assassinates, it is impossible to live forever!" Yang Qi also suddenly laughed, and shook his head lightly at the same time. "The old man has never made any enemies in his life. No matter how much others dislike the old man and get in the way, they won't be able to wait for two or three years! ”
"Don't say that!" Listening to Lao Yang Qi's words, vaguely with a little sadness, Zhang Qian hurriedly whispered to comfort, "You are old-hearted and fair-minded, everyone respects you enough, how can you be in the way?" As for longevity, with your old body and bones, there must be no problem in living to be more than 100 years old. ”
"You kid, your mouth is so sweet!" Lao Yang Qi listened happily and nodded again and again with a smile. "No wonder my granddaughter lost her soul when she didn't see you for a day. If the old man is that young girl, he can't resist this honey-smeared mouth! ”
"You are always a secretary of the court!" Zhang Qian was so ashamed that he quickly turned his head, and found that no one was keeping up, so he lowered his voice and complained, "Why do you always make jokes about your juniors?" If I treat Qingjing coldly every day, can you still rest assured? ”
"In that case, if the old man becomes a ghost, he will crawl out of the coffin and fight with you kid!" Yang Qi immediately pricked up his eyes and acted in a state of anger. Immediately, he sighed again and gently bowed his hand to Zhang Qian, "This little granddaughter was grown up by the old man, and I really can't bear to trust her to be a non-person." Therefore, today's matter, the old man will make amends to you first. The old man is a little anxious, but you must not be angry with her because the old man is anxious! ”
"You said this all the time, I wasn't angry with you at all, how could I be angry with her?" Seeing this, Zhang Qian hurriedly dodged sideways. Immediately, he respectfully gave the junior salute, and in an instant, the dissatisfaction with the old fox in his heart disappeared, "What's more, I still work part-time to repair the calendar, and you also brought Zhang Shilang for me to shelter from the wind and rain!" ”
"The old man hopes that you will be qualified to speak loudly in the court as soon as possible!" Yang Qi was not polite, and bowed to him with confidence, and then added in a low voice, "As for the cultivation calendar, whoever contributes the most will have more power to interpret the celestial phenomena." With Zhao, all dynasties and dynasties, no matter who is the emperor, pay attention to a conformity to the mandate of heaven! ”
"Juniors understand." Zhang Qian immediately realized that the old fox hoped that he could grasp one more chance to change Yang Qingxun's fate, smiled, and nodded seriously.
"But the old man's move is not entirely for his own selfishness!" Seeing that he was a little clear, Yang Qi smiled happily. Immediately, he put away his smile and asked solemnly, "Yongzhao, to tell you the truth, you have been out of the mountain for so long, how do you feel about Datang?" ”
"Datang, it's not bad, at least it's good for me!" Zhang Qian didn't understand why the old man had this question, thought about it, and responded truthfully.
"That's so-so?" Yang Qi laughed again, his eyes became as simple as a child, "Yong Zhao, if one day, you can return to the master again, will you take the old man's granddaughter with you?" ”
"Of course!" Zhang Qian didn't even think about it, and answered categorically.
"That's good, that's good!" Yang Qi was relieved, and raised his hand to pat his chest. "If, it just so happens that Datang needs you to stay that day, will you stay?"
"It should be! Datang is not thin on me. Qingjing, you, He Shu and Uncle Zhang are also here! Although Zhang Qian didn't understand why the old fox had become such a mother-in-law today, he smiled and continued to tell the truth, "Actually, I am on the side of the master, and there are not as many people as close to me. ”
"Then the old man is even more relieved!" Yang Qi continued to pat his chest with his hands, feeling relieved, "The old man is timid, he has been a peace officer in the Tang Dynasty all his life, and he is jokingly called the prime minister who makes paste." The old man has been tinkering all day long in his life, and he hopes that Datang can become strong again like the old man when he was a teenager. Even if the people are small, they do not worry about overnight food. The old man doesn't know if he will have a chance to see that day in his life, but that day should not be too far away! ”
"You're old, you're looking down on your juniors!" I didn't expect Yang Qi to have such deep expectations for himself, Zhang Qianleng was moved, and his heart was so moved, "The younger generation can only say, do your best." In fact, the situation in Datang is getting better day by day. In fact, even if there are no juniors, your old wish will soon be realized. ”
It's a big truth, in another plane, even without him as a time-traveler. After Li Longji ascended the throne, he quickly pushed Datang back to the top. Corn is three dollars and one bucket, and small households can also eat chickens during the New Year, which is an unprecedented prosperity in history. After the prosperity of the Kaiyuan Dynasty, it will take more than 1,240 years for the Chinese people to regain this kind of wealth.
"If this is really the case, even if the old man can't see it with his own eyes, he will smile under the nine springs!" Yang Qi's voice continued to come, with unmixed joy, "Yong Zhao, the old man has another question for you?" ”
"You always ask, the younger generation knows everything, and there is no end to it?" Feeling the innocence of Datang in the old man's heart, Zhang Qian's response unconsciously brought a bit of respect.
"Yong Zhao, you are very knowledgeable, can you tell the old man, what is the will of heaven?!" Lao Yangqi's face became solemn again, staring at Zhang Qian's eyes, and asked in a deep voice.
"This ......" Zhang Qian is mostly an atheist, and he really can't answer his question. I am trying to find answers from a philosophical perspective. But I heard Lao Yang Qi laugh and add to himself: "The will of heaven is actually the will of the people." What auspicious astrological signs, in the eyes of the old man, are pure nonsense! ”
After a pause, the old man's voice suddenly turned higher, and he was not afraid to be heard at all, "The politicians have made the people's lives miserable, and what if God gives more auspicious signs, in the end, they still leave a lot of infamy in the history books, and even become the king of the dead country?" And what about heavy rain and flooding Kyushu? As long as the politicians are diligent and love the people, they will still let the rivers return to the sea and the land will be reborn! With Zhao, the old man doesn't know why your master sent you here, or why God let you appear in Datang. However, since you are here, please take a closer look here. Look at the people here, it's worth it for you to do something for them. Look at this Datang, is it worth it for you to show some skills for it. No matter what the final result is, the old man hopes that you will make this trip worthwhile! ”
