Sima Guang stood there in a daze, his body shaky, only to see that this stone lion was about seven feet tall and a long zhang, I am afraid that it weighs tens of thousands of catties, and it is definitely not something that can be moved by manpower.

Confucianism pays attention to "Zi does not speak strange power and chaos gods", which means that Confucianism does not talk about gods and strange things, but it does not mean that they are atheists, do not believe that there are ghosts and gods in the world, seeing this scene, most people think of ghosts and gods, if it is not for the power of ghosts and gods, how can this stone lion fly to the door of Sima Guang's house?

"Jun Shigong, I feel a little uncomfortable in my lower body, so I will take a step first, and I am afraid that I will not be able to go to court tomorrow." Immediately, there was a quick reaction and wanted to withdraw from this matter, so he arched his hand and hurried away without waiting for Sima Guang to agree.

Tens of thousands of catties of stone lions landed, how loud should it be? There were also people in the mansions on the left and right sides who came to see what was going on, Sima Guang's neighbors were either rich or expensive; And there are more and more people rushing around, and I'm afraid that it won't be until tomorrow, and this matter will be known to everyone that night.

Some of the older and more senior people looked at this stone lion and wondered, why did they think this stone lion was so familiar? Have you seen it somewhere?

The bloody three words on the lion's chest, one stroke at a time, went straight to Sima Guang's heart like a knife, Sima Guang couldn't hold back for a while, a mouthful of blood spit out, leaned back and fell backwards, fortunately, his subordinates reacted quickly, so he didn't let him be hurt a second time, and quickly carried Sima Guang back to the house, and at the same time was afraid that people would go to the doctor.

No matter how slow the reaction was, they also realized that something was wrong, they raised their sleeves to cover their faces, hid their faces and left in a hurry, everyone regretted why they came to Sima Guang's house today to join in the fun, if people knew about it, no, such a big movement, it is impossible for anyone not to know, their future will definitely be over.

"Hehe, Sima Junshi is afraid that he will not have the face to come out to meet people again this time! The stone lion from the sky must have come for him, and he would give up thousands of miles of land in one sentence, and the three words of this traitor could not be more suitable! "Among the people who watched the excitement were also supporters of the New Party, and they were overjoyed to see this scene.

"Yes, Sima Junshi, don't they like to say that Xianggong 'destiny is not enough to fear'? Isn't this destiny in front of you? Let's see if he is 'Sima Niu' afraid? Sima Guang and Wang Anshi are both stubborn people, so Wang Anshi got the nickname of "Reluctant Minister", and Sima Guang was called "Sima Niu".

"It must be Sima Guang's remarks that angered the heavens, so there is a warning!" In the past, the old party had been attacking Wang Anshi with floods, droughts, earthquakes, and locust plagues in various places, saying that he had angered the heavens by changing the law, so he sent down these disaster warnings, but how could those be compared with the big stone lion in front of him?

Did floods, droughts, earthquakes, locust plagues occur that year? The sage also said, "The way of heaven is constant, not for Yao, not for ruin", but who has ever seen a stone lion descend from heaven? There is no such record in the history books!

The new party almost beat gongs and drums to celebrate, but the old party was like a mourner, and they didn't dare to go to each other's doors, so they could only gather their staff at home to discuss this mutation, and ponder how to fool this matter over.

Sima Guang was also thinking about this matter after waking up, but they didn't expect that more terrible things were still to come, and the origin of this stone lion was not simple.

Early in the morning of the second day, in the tombs of the emperors of the Great Song Dynasty east of Kaifeng, in Henan Province, and on the south side of the Wuluo River, the soldiers who were responsible for guarding the mausoleum were preparing to clean the cemetery as usual.

He rubbed his eyes, and when he saw it clearly, he suddenly felt like a stone lion, only to see that among the stone beasts responsible for guarding the mausoleum for Zhao Kuangyin, there was a stone lion missing!

An exclamation disturbed the tranquility of the mausoleum, and the officials guarding the mausoleum were furious when they heard the exclamation, someone dared to make a noise here and disturb the rest of the ancestors of the Great Song Dynasty? Is it really an unforgivable sin?

A moment later, he let out a louder exclamation than the little soldier just now, collapsed to the ground and almost fainted, desperately commanding loudly with the last trace of Qingming, "Quick, quickly send someone to inform the capital!" ”

A team of fast horses galloped towards Kaifeng, along the way the knight gate did not dare to spare the horsepower, all the way to the death of more than half of the horses, more than two hundred miles of distance in one day, before the gate was closed to spread the news to the palace.

"What? The stone lion of Yongchang Mausoleum is gone? "When the news spread, someone immediately thought of the one at the door of Sima Guang, oh, yes, no wonder it feels familiar, it turned out to be the stone lion guarding the door for Emperor Taizu!

This is the manifestation of Emperor Taizu! His Majesty Taizu was not angry with Sima Guang for betraying the land of the Great Song Dynasty, so he sent a stone lion to Kaifeng to warn Sima Guang! Countless people have thought of this.

Zhao Ji immediately ordered the most trusted ministers and chamberlains to take the soldiers who came from Yongchang Mausoleum to guard the mausoleum, as well as the courtiers who had gone to Yongchang Mausoleum to worship before, to identify the stone lion at the gate of Sima Guang.

"This is the one guarding the gate for His Majesty Taizu! I saw it when I was on patrol yesterday, but I don't know why I flew here? The soldiers guarding the tomb concluded that this was the one lost in Yongchangling, and at the same time breathed a long sigh of relief, and his own life could be regarded as saved.

"That's it." Several officials who had participated in Emperor Yingzong's entry into the mausoleum echoed that they had also visited the nearby Yongchang Mausoleum at that time and still had an impression of this stone lion.

"Yes, I remember it below."

"Well, that's true." More people began to correspond the stone lion in front of the Yongchang Mausoleum in their memories with the one in front of them, and almost everyone made the same judgment.

Then Qi Qi bowed down to the stone lion, and everyone said that this was the manifestation of Taizu, otherwise, how could tens of thousands of catties of stone lions fly to Kaifeng in the blink of an eye?

You must know that Kaifeng and Yongchang Mausoleum are separated by two or three hundred miles, even if a large group of people and horses are sent to transport it, it will take several days of effort, and according to the words of the soldiers guarding the tomb and the testimony of everyone present last night, it can be judged that this stone lion flew from Yongchang Mausoleum to Kaifeng without even a quarter of an hour's effort.

Even Zhao Ji and the Empress Dowager and the Empress Dowager in the palace all agreed that this was the manifestation of Taizu when they heard about it, and they also set up an incense case in the palace to worship, if it wasn't too troublesome to go out of the palace, Zhao Ji wanted to rush over to worship immediately.

Only Wang Anshi's father and son set their eyes on the outside of Kaifeng City at the same time after hearing the news. There was really no one else but him.

"Father, will the child go out of town soon?" Wang Yan whispered to Wang Anshi, and Wang Anshi nodded silently.
