Chapter 57: Chickens in the Air

Yi Xingchen said: "I don't quite understand what the adults mean, the last time the hexagram has been said, the owner of the White Lotus can't find it, even if you calculate another hexagram, it is useless, because, there is a saying in the hexagram, called 'one thing one hexagram', that is, one thing can only be counted once, and then it is not allowed." ”

Peng Qingchen hurriedly shook his head and said: "I didn't ask my brother to help me calculate another hexagram to find the owner of the White Lotus, but when my brother left that day, he reminded me that he was looking for a noble person and someone who helped me talk to be able to resolve this crisis." I want to ask my brother to help me calculate a hexagram, who should I find to help me speak? To tell you the truth, after hearing my brother's advice, I have been looking for people in the past few days, but it is useless, either people are unwilling to help, or they have not been able to help. Now that my brother has instructed me, can you do some more calculations and see who I can find to help me with this? Please, bro. ”

After that, he reached out and took out a small ingot of silver from his arms and put it in front of Yi Xingchen, and said: "This is two taels of silver, the right to be a hexagram gold, if my brother helps me through this catastrophe, my brother will still be grateful." ”

Yi Xingchen couldn't help but feel happy in his heart. Two taels of silver, but it is equivalent to two thousand copper coins, how many hexagrams do they have to calculate to earn it. This is a windfall, in Yi Xingchen's silent memory, since he learned hexagram telling from his master, he has never received so much money.

Although Yi Xingchen's heart was happy, his face was still faint, and he didn't even glance at the silver from the corner of his eyes. looked at Peng Qingchen and said: "The adult is too polite, since this is the case, then I will calculate a hexagram for the adult, if I can help the adult, it is also my honor." ”

When Yi Xingchen entered the house and told the master that he was going out, he had already calculated that Gongsun He was likely to find him to tell the hexagram, so he brought a small bag of rice with him. At that moment, Yi Xingchen took out the rice bag and put it on the table, and said to Peng Jincheng: "Since you have found a lot of people to help you talk before, but you can't speak or are unwilling to help, it means that it is difficult for you to find a nobleman." But we can do it another way, that is, since we can't find someone who can directly connect with your boss, then we can find someone who can rectify the person who says bad things about you behind your back, as long as we beat this person, that may also help you get through this disaster. This is called a bottom-of-the-pot strategy.

Peng Qingchen's eyes lit up, and he slapped his thigh hard: "That's right, why didn't I think of this move?" Yes, yes, that's great, then, Brother Yi, you can help me take a hexagram and see who can help me kill the person who stabbed Lao Tzu in the back? ”

"Who can help you That's the second step, the first step is to know who is hurting you? Can you be sure of that? ”

Peng Qingchen smiled bitterly and said: "Don't hide it, brother, I have offended a lot of people as a Jinyiwei." I thought about it, who was behind it, and I still couldn't be sure. If you don't brother, you can help me calculate first, who stabbed me in the back? ”

Yi Xingchen nodded and said, "That's right, you have to identify this person who corrects you first, and then find a way to deal with him." I'll give you a hexagram first, and see what the hexagram says. As I said earlier, a fortune teller can only predict things through hexagrams, but he cannot decide things. Therefore, unless the hexagram shows this person, then I can tell you, and if the hexagram is not shown, I can't talk nonsense. It's important to understand this. ”

"I understand this, you have told me very clearly before, the hexagram really can't be shown, then I can only accept my fate. However, I don't think God will be so cruel to me, please be gracious and help me. Speaking of the last few words, Peng Qingchen walked to the window, raised his hands above his head, looked up at the black night sky, as if praying to the heavens, and after a long time put down his hands and walked back.

Yi Xingchen said: "You can pick rice." ”

Peng Qingchen got up, put his hands together respectfully in front of his forehead, and prayed silently in his heart, before reaching out and picking up three small handfuls of rice and placing them on the table.

Yi Xingchen counted the number, plus the current hour, got a hexagram, looked at the hexagram, pondered for a moment, and said: "Judging from the hexagram, it is very consistent with your current situation, which means that this hexagram should be accurate." ”

Peng Qingchen swallowed nervously: "Brother Yi, what do you say about the hexagram?" ”

"This hexagram is called Fengze Zhongfu hexagram. The hexagram that represents your body is the Xunmu hexagram, and the hexagram that represents that person is the gold hexagram, and the gold hexagram is the main murderer, and when the gold hexagram is the hexagram of the body, the lord has a dispute with his tongue, which means that he wants to frame you. Moreover, you will be in trouble, because the first nine lines of this hexagram are written: 'Hanyin ascends to the sky, chastity and fierceness.' Translated it means that a chicken that flies to the empty will soon land and be dangerous. It's easy to understand, how far can a chicken fly? The chickens that fly into the air, of course, will soon land on the ground, indicating that your black gauze hat will soon be in place. ”

Peng Qingchen couldn't help but be stunned, his eyes were full of horror. After a while, he hurriedly asked, "Then, does the hexagram show who is the person who corrects me?" ”

Yi Xingchen pondered for a moment and said: "On behalf of the other party, it is the hexagram that represents the hexagram, this person can speak well, and the stroke of the surname should have oral or gold characters on the side." ”

Peng Qingchen frowned, pondered, and muttered, "Could it be ......?" But there are a few people who are not on the wrong side of me who have gold or oral words, who is it? ”

Yi Xingchen said: "From the hexagram, it shows that this person likes opera, and he may have learned some numerology knowledge. ”

Speaking of this, Peng Qingchen's eyes couldn't help but light up: "I have an enemy, who is the experience of the Wei commander, surnamed Wu." His name is next to the word "Mouth", he usually likes to sing some opera, and he also understands some numerology. He never wanted to see me. As long as it was because a case investigated by our Jinyi Guard involved one of his relatives, he had interceded with me, and I didn't give him face, and in the end that person was beheaded. So he kept holding a grudge against me. Hearing you say that, I'm sure he's the one who did it. Because he has a good relationship with our Jinyiwei's Pang Xianbaihu. I've always thought that I have a good relationship with Pang Xian Baihu, so I didn't expect that it was he who was behind the ghost, and the hundred households were making trouble for me. ”

Yi Xingchen said: "Now that you have determined who it is, do you have a way to deal with him?" ”

Hearing this, Peng Qingchen couldn't help but be stunned, thought for a moment and said: "Wu is in the army, and it is not good for our Jinyi Wei to interfere in investigating him." And he is of the same grade as me, and he has a good relationship with my top boss, Pang Xian, and I really can't think of any way to deal with it for a while. Brother, can you help me do a hexagram and see if there is anyone who can help me? ”

Yi Xingchen said: "It's best to be able to get his birth date to start a hexagram, it will be more accurate." ”

Peng Qingchen said: "This is not difficult, I will send someone to check it immediately, and I will find it soon." ”

Yi Xingchen said: "Okay, after you find out, just come to me, I will tell you the hexagram immediately, and after the business is done, let's start eating." ”

Peng Qingchen said: "Okay, I'll go out to decorate first, and come back to drink with my brother." Maybe we're done eating, and the news should be reported. ”

Yi Xingchen was a little surprised and said, "Your Jinyiwei is so efficient? Can you get the information in one meal? ”

Peng Qingchen smiled a little proudly: "If you don't even have this ability, why does the imperial court bother to raise us rice buckets?" ”

With that, Peng Qingchen quickly went out and went downstairs. Yi Xingchen thought to himself, Jinyiwei deserves to be a well-known spy agency, and he is resolute in his work.

Peng Qingchen came back quickly, smiled and said, "Okay, it's been arranged, let's drink and eat, wait a while, and we can report it." I just called two singers to sing and cheer up. It's coming soon. ”

After a while, two young singers came, playing the piano and singing. Yi Xingchen listened with interest.

When he was full of wine and food, two brocade guards came in, bowed down, handed a piece of paper to Peng Qingchen, and then withdrew.

Peng Qingchen waved his hand to let the singer withdraw, and then he unfolded the paper and looked at it, with a satisfied smile on his face. He handed the paper to Yi Xingchen. Yi Xingchen looked at it, and it was indeed the eight characters of his birthday.
