Chapter 2: The Imperial City Is Haunted
As soon as Guo Zhongyong came out of the mountain, many people felt that this person would definitely be an existence with an unlimited future, and after worshipping under Zhang Zhidong, everyone thought it was so, but the development of things is really not what people want to be. The place where Guo Zhongyong is suspended. The grade is definitely not low: the Hanlin Academy is a civilian Beijing official from the fifth grade. As before, if the Beijing official is released by half a level. If it is local, even if it is the fifth grade, the prefect is considered to be the number one. He is equivalent to the same knowledge, and he is regarded as the existence of the second-in-command.
At that time, there were internal and external turmoil, and the troubled times were heavy. So Guo Zhongyong, as a civil official, although his grade is not low, in fact, there is nothing wrong, and he is not very sharp at the beginning, he is an official after winning the top three civil and military officials, and he is even a little mediocre, that is, he doesn't go to work all day long, drinks every day, and there is no day that he is not drunk, which makes people who are very concerned about him shake their heads and sigh at him later.
Therefore, at that time, the top three in civil and military affairs only allowed Guo Zhongyong to be a waiter from the Hanlin Academy of Wupin, and became Zhang Zhidong's protégé. What really made his career shine was the unusually boiling haunting incident in the palace at that time.
The capital of the Son of Heaven, the home of the Son of Heaven, the royal land, and the city of Beijing is also regarded as "the place where the dragon veins and the family of the world are gathered". According to Feng Shui, it should not be said that there is a haunted thing. Because the ancient emperor thought that his true destiny was the son of heaven and had dragon qi to protect his body, where were there still demons and monsters who dared to get close?
But the Forbidden City, the haunted legend, really has never been broken, it can be said that the palace maids, eunuchs, those concubines are so boring that they have depression, of course, the struggle between the harems is non-stop, some people die, this so-called royal place actually has too many resentful ghosts, which no one can say.
Whoever said it was haunted before was fine, but this time, this person is a ghost, this matter is big, this person is the Empress Dowager Cixi, a woman's history of ascendancy, in fact, it can also be said to be a bloody history, how many people died on the way to her power, no one knows, everyone knows, it is the Empress Dowager Dong. Do your best.
And this incident is that Cixi dreamed of Empress Dowager Ci'an and asked for her life. Even brought people, including the headless Su Shun, the palace maids and eunuchs who died tragically, and a group of people went to Cixi's bedroom, making Cixi restless day and night, unable to sleep at night, but unable to sleep with a headache during the day.
However, except for Cixi herself, no one has seen what these evil ghosts described by Cixi as "pale and fanged", including the headless evil ghosts, look like, and who is Cixi, this is a person who says "I'm not comfortable, I'll let everyone follow me uncomfortable", she was harassed by evil ghosts, although this matter can't be made public, but in a small area, how nervous everyone is.
At first, it was the evil ghost who came to ask for his life, and in the end, the jade statue of Guanyin worshiped by Cixi left blood and tears, and the water for washing his face turned bloody, and the last time, the most serious thing was that when Cixi took a bath, the water in the pool became a piece of blood, and a miserable white hand stretched out from it, wanting to hook Cixi's life.
Cixi was frightened and fainted in the bath, if it wasn't for the early discovery, she drowned in it, and then, she fell ill from the ghosts, and was furious, these people must solve this matter immediately, and kill all these evil ghosts!
When it comes to evil ghosts, they will definitely think of monks and Taoist priests, so at that time, the ministers of the humerus tried their best to find the monks, and to find the great real people who had attained the Tao to come to the palace to subdue demons and eliminate demons, but these people who came, chanting and exceeding, all used, it was useless, even if it was a monk and a Taoist priest and the Imperial Forest Army guarding Cixi's dormitory layer by layer, she could still see those unjust souls who came to ask for their lives in the middle of the night.
Cixi was even more furious, and killed all these "useless" people, and let her cronies continue to look for them, so she didn't believe in the Supreme Celestial Empire, and there was no real Taoist master? Are all these fame-seekers?
This question has plagued Cixi for a long time, seeing that Cixi has lost half of her life, and is tossed by ghosts every day, no one can stand it, let alone an old lady?
At this time, Guo Zhongyong gave Cixi the first excerpt, of course, this excerpt was transferred through Zhang Zhidong, and the statement on this excerpt is: "Kill evil ghosts, you have to get the crime of being unreasonable, the capital is important, and the world is a place where feng shui and dragon qi are complete." These evil ghosts died in the palace again, not to mention the resentment, and the most important thing is that they were stained with dragon qi, so if you want to cure this matter, you must start from feng shui. ”
It was only at this time that Zhang Zhidong knew that he was almost a thirst for talent, and that Corporal Lixian invited this waste person still understood this thing, so he asked, "Do you still understand this?" ”
"I know a little bit about it." Guo Zhongyong replied.
"You're not? You must know that the Queen Mother has killed a lot of people who pretend to be masters! Zhang Zhidong said.
"I feel more sorry for myself than anyone else." Guo Zhongyong said with a smile.
The Queen Mother was very anxious, at this time, if anyone can solve problems for the Queen Mother, it can be regarded as a great achievement, Zhang Zhidong usually feels the pressure, so he handed this fold up, saying that he has such a person under him, so to speak, why don't you let him try?
At that time, I couldn't find a master, or maybe the real master was too lazy to come out to work for Cixi, and the empress dowager, who was anxious at that time, heard that this person was Guo Zhongyong, who was the top three in civil and military affairs at that time, so she called over, try it, what if it succeeds? If it doesn't work, I don't care about killing such a useless person who doesn't go to work every day and drinks alcohol, right? I found Guo Zhongyong. Listen to his other remarks, what is wrong with the feng shui of this imperial city.
"Beijing City, also known as the eight-armed Nezha City, is a collection of feng shui, but it is precisely because of the gathering, gathering the world's feng shui, and the palace just occupies the big eye of feng shui. I'm afraid that there are countless of them, these resentful spirits can't go out because of the gathering of words, and the yin qi resentment is accumulating more and more, but there was dragon qi suppression before, and it will never be said that there is a wronged ghost asking for his life, and the problem is now that the world is in turmoil, internal and external troubles, the dragon qi is weak, and under the rise of this weakness, the resentment has increased greatly, so there will be today's things, but these resentful spirits are accumulated in the eyes of the world, and they are no ordinary resentful spirits, unless the gods are reincarnated, no one can get rid of them, so it is not those mages who sell their reputations, but they have done their best. Guo Zhongyong said.
Although Guo Zhongyong's words are a little unpleasant, but if you listen to them carefully, they are really on the point, and the Empress Dowager Cixi arrived at that time: "Then you said that except for the reincarnation of the gods, you can't kill these unjust ghosts, how to deal with them?" ”
"I have long thought about solving problems for the Queen Mother and serving the royal family, although the city of Beijing was not seen by Liu Bowen himself, but at that time it was left by Liu Bowen. The drawings were almost built as they were, and Liu Bowen of the previous dynasty was proficient in Qimen Dunjia, and I happened to be proficient in this way, as soon as I heard about it, so I was drunk and wandered around in Beijing every day, others thought I was not doing business, in fact, I was understanding the distribution of the dragon veins in the capital, and now, I already roughly knew the way, just wait for the Queen Mother to nod, and immediately start to deal with this matter, I can guarantee with my head, this matter, I can definitely do it. Guo Zhongyong said.
"All-round talent in civil and military affairs, and proficient in Kanyu, Guo Zhongyong, you are really a genius, and you know the affairs of the mourning family, take the initiative to survey the terrain first, this is the loyal minister that the court needs, this matter, you can rest assured to do it, and you are fully responsible!" Empress Dowager Cixi said.
It was this incident that Guo Zhongyong took the first step towards Cixi's "close minister".
At that time, the first thing Guo Zhongyong said to Cixi was: "This ghost murder, led by the Empress Dowager Ci'an, I don't care about the cause of the Empress Dowager Ci'an's death, whether it is illness and death, or it is really a legend, it doesn't matter, this matter has to be done, the first is to ask Ci'an's birthday." ”
Because at that time, although most of the people outside said that the Empress Dowager Ci'an was killed by Cixi, but on the surface, she still died of natural causes, but others didn't dare to say this, my grandfather said it, but Cixi felt close.
There are too many sycophants around her, and I really haven't seen this person who dares to talk to herself like this!
