Chapter 167: Lu Jin
Qin Tianjian's supervisor suddenly faced the saint, which surprised Emperor Xia, what kind of excitement did he come to join?
But Emperor Xia still summoned him.
Eunuch Zhao of Qin Tianjian is an old man with a hundred flowers in his hair, who was a Taoist priest when he was young, and it is said that he has a very high rank in Taoism. Later, Emperor Xia ascended the throne and rebuilt the calendar, so he reused this person, this person really knew the art of astrology, and he organized and arranged a suitable astronomical calendar, which was beneficial to spring plowing and autumn harvest and the stability of the dynasty.
So when the year came, Emperor Xia still reused him, and he was not allowed to do it.
He entered the palace and said respectfully: "Weichen Zhao Fang knocks to see my emperor!" ”
Emperor Xia just had a high fever and had no other symptoms, so he was just a little sluggish, so he asked, "Zhao Aiqing hurriedly entered the palace, could it be a big deal?" You've always been steady, it's not like your temper! ”
Zhao Fangdao: "Back to Your Majesty, Weichen entered the palace for His Majesty's fever!" ”
"Oh? Do you know the reason why the fever does not go away? Emperor Xia asked in surprise.
Zhao Fangdao: "Your Majesty, after Weichen heard that many imperial doctors in the Tai Hospital were diagnosed and treated, they were helpless, Your Majesty only had a fever, but there were no other symptoms of wind and cold entering the body, so that the imperial doctors could not do it, and the medicine had no effect." It just so happened that Weichen was deducing the astrological signs and made a major discovery! ”
Emperor Xia was stunned for a moment, and said with a smile: "Aiqing, please speak!" ”
Zhao Fangdao: "Does Your Majesty remember that some time ago, Weichen made a statement to Your Majesty and found that a killing star had landed?" ”
Emperor Xia squinted his eyes slightly, and said with a smile: "I naturally remember, it seems that I also asked Dongchang to investigate." ”
Zhao Fangdao: "Back to Your Majesty, last night Wei Chen continued to observe the sky at night, and found that the killing star had moved north, and it had approached the Ziwei Emperor Star, and the evil qi impacted, causing the Ziwei Emperor Star to shock. Moreover, Wechen also found that Emperor Ziwei was entangled and bewitched by a calamity star next to his heart, so Wechen was worried that it was the calamity star and the killing star that jointly invaded the emperor's heart, which caused His Majesty's fever to not retreat! This is a sign from heaven! ”
"That's right." Emperor Xia asked, "Is there a solution?" ”
"Get rid of the killing star, send away the disaster star, and Your Majesty will be healed naturally!" Zhao Fang said.
Emperor Xia asked: "Killing the star in the troubled times, I can understand if I get rid of him, why don't you get rid of the calamity, but send it away?" ”
Zhao Fangdao: "Your Majesty doesn't know that the calamity star will harm others, and if you do something to him, you will not be implicated or even cause a greater disaster, you only need to send him away, and the Ziwei Emperor Star will return to its glory!" ”
Emperor Xia nodded and asked, "Then Aiqing knows the location of this killing star and the disaster star?" ”
"Back to Your Majesty, the killing star has moved north to approach the emperor star, which means that you have come to the capital! Weichen's Taoism is shallow, and he can't specifically locate his location, His Majesty can arrange for Dongchang to thoroughly investigate the Jingshi, once you find that the person who looks very different and has a bad spirit, most of them are the killing stars who come to the world. As for the calamity..."Zhao Fang hesitated, then arched his hand and said, "Weichen doesn't dare to say it!" ”
Emperor Xia smiled: "It's okay, I forgive you for your innocence!" ”
Zhao Fang hesitated for a moment and said, "Your Majesty, according to the astrological signs, the Calamity Star is hidden next to the Ziwei Emperor Star and is hidden by the Emperor Star's brilliance, so it has not been discovered for a long time. This time, it was under the influence of the killing star that the traces of the disaster star were exposed. So... The Calamity must be hidden by His Majesty's side, or someone who can get close to His Majesty! ”
Emperor Xia groaned, his face expressionless.
After a long time, Emperor Xia asked, "What does Aiqing mean by sending away the calamity?" Where is it sent? Leave the capital, or leave the land of Great Xia? ”
"Just leave the capital! If it is sent out of Great Xia, it will definitely be better! Zhao Fang said.
Xia Huang said: "Okay! I'm tired of Aiqing, I know. ”
Zhao Fang saluted respectfully: "Weichen farewell, do not disturb Your Majesty's rest." I also hope that Your Majesty will make a decision as soon as possible, get rid of the killing star, and send away the disaster star, so that the dragon body can be healthy and worry-free as soon as possible! ”
"Stand down." Xia Huang said.
Zhao Fang respectfully stepped back.
At this time, there was a cold silence in the summer palace.
Hai Dafu didn't dare to breathe, and stood respectfully, he knew that now was not the time to disturb Emperor Xia.
After a while, Emperor Xia said: "I seem to remember that King Xian came to me a few days ago to intercede on behalf of the killing star?" And he also said that he dreamed that the disaster star fell outside his palace? ”
Hai Dafu was stunned, opened his mouth, and said, "This is indeed the case." ”
Emperor Xia said: "On that day, the forbidden army and the eunuchs of Bingbi and Suitang who were in charge of the Yangxin Palace were all secretly controlled. ”
"Yes!" Hai Dafu said respectfully, and then he was going to do it, who knows...
"Wait!"
Emperor Xia suddenly stopped Hai Dafu.
Hai Dafu was stunned and didn't dare to move.
Emperor Xia suddenly laughed and said, "No need, this matter will be like this, I will be idle for a few more days and continue to be sick." ”
After speaking, Emperor Xia leaned on the dragon couch and closed his eyes.
…….
On the second day, rumors of a calamity star and a killing star spread to the capital.
Xiao Rui also learned of this rumor, and the target of the disaster star was Xiao Rui! You don't need to ask about killing stars, it's naturally Li Kui!
Xiao Rui couldn't cry or laugh, he said to Jia Xu: "Sir, I just wanted to keep Li Kui, the deliberately fabricated disaster star, for example, now it has come true?" ”
Jia Xu said with a smile: "This is someone deliberately making trouble by borrowing your words, after all, His Highness personally admitted it, and he can't even deny it, which also reminds His Highness to think carefully before speaking in the future." ”
Xiao Rui hurriedly nodded and said, "This time I was wronged, it was my own mistake, and I got to the gun." It's just that what is the purpose of getting rid of the killing star and sending away the disaster star? ”
"It seems that the designer wants to expel His Royal Highness from the capital, and he can't even wait for the New Year." Jia Xu said: "As for Li Kui, it's just to get rid of it by the way." ”
Xiao Rui laughed at himself: "Yes, I can't wait for more than a month, and I am so eager to get rid of this king." However, Your Majesty will believe these rumors? ”
"Your Majesty didn't stop the spread of rumors, and you didn't even hold accountable who leaked the news of the Heart Cultivation Hall that day, which means that Your Majesty doesn't believe it, but doesn't want to ask more." Jia Xu said: "The theory of the stars is ethereal, and His Majesty does not believe in ghosts and gods, but only in himself!" ”
Xiao Rui nodded and said: "Your Majesty must not believe it, but he doesn't want to ask, but lets the news spread, and it is estimated that he is also holding on to the wall, one is to be careful and elegant, if I can't cope with it, then leave the capital obediently, anyway, go out early, or go out later, you have to go out." But this time, I can't afford to lose! ”
Jia Xu said: "That's right! ”
Xiao Rui said: "First, I can't watch Li Kui die, and second, if I really lose, how can I put the face of this king?" More importantly, I want to know who yin me! ”
"Does Your Highness have any doubts?" Jia Xu asked.
Xiao Rui said: "Several princes are suspicious, and the civil and military ministers behind them are also possible, and the biggest suspicion is the second prince Xiao Yiheng, who has been annoying me a lot these days." ”
How happy he was in the previous days, since he knew that he knew Yan Xiaoxiao, his nose was not his nose, and his eyes were not eyes. It seems that he has occupied his wife, robbed his woman, and the hatred of taking his wife is not shared!
Jia Xu agreed: "Indeed, Xiao Yiheng is the most suspicious!" But Xiao Yiheng hid it too well, and he didn't see any footprints in which he participated. This son is really not to be underestimated. ”
Xiao Rui smiled: "Then let's wait and see who will be the first to jump out of this farce." ”
Jia Xu nodded, and suddenly asked matter-of-factly: "Your Highness, do you want to gamble?" ”
"Okay!" Xiao Rui's eyes lit up.
Once the rumor spreads, it becomes unstoppable!
Emperor Xia was benevolent and loved the people, and suddenly he was haunted by fever, which naturally made the people worried, and suddenly heard that it was caused by disasters and killing stars, and the simple people believed in ghosts and gods, so they naturally discussed hotly.
The next day, there was an excerpt in the imperial history, impeaching Xiao Rui, and asking His Majesty to transfer Xiao Rui out of the capital to secure the overall situation.
Fortunately, Emperor Xia was ill and did not go to the early court, and even the recital was not approved, and the cabinet had no choice but to suppress the impeachment.
And as the rumors intensified, they had spread from outside the palace to inside the palace.
Empress Zhou Xiangyun and Imperial Concubine Lin Yuer suddenly joined forces, and contacted Concubine Lan, the mother of the fourth prince, Concubine Ling, the mother of the fifth prince, Concubine Yun, the mother of the sixth prince, and Concubine Yan, the mother of the eighth prince, and when they went to the Summer Palace to ask for peace, they unintentionally talked about it.
"Your Majesty, the rumors about the killing star and the disaster star have been well known, and now there are many discussions inside and outside the palace, and it will inevitably be chaotic for a long time. The harem can't interfere in politics, so the concubines don't dare to say more, and the concubines only hope that His Majesty's fever can be cured as soon as possible! Queen Zhou Xiangyun said tactfully.
Imperial Concubine Lin Yu'er also said: "Yes, Your Majesty, you have been suffering from a fever that has not retreated, and the imperial doctor's diagnosis and treatment have been fruitless, so I have to believe what Zhao Jianzheng said, for the sake of His Majesty's dragon body, I would rather believe it than believe it!" ”
The other concubines and concubines also spoke one after another.
Emperor Xia said with a smile: "The queen and several concubines are concerned about me, I understand in my heart, I also believe in Zhao Jianzheng's words, I have sent Dongchang to search, but the search for the killing star and the disaster star is fruitless, so I can only do it in a hurry." ”
The girls hesitated, Queen Zhou Xiangyun looked at Concubine Ling and gave her a look, Concubine Ling hesitated for a moment, and said: "Your Majesty, the concubine heard rumors that His Royal Highness Seventh Highness has newly recruited a man with an ugly face and a vicious spirit, and they all say that he is a star killer!" ”
"Oh? Right? Emperor Xia pretended to be surprised, and then suddenly realized: "You said this, I remembered one thing, King Xian did mention this matter, and he recruited a person who was hunted down by Dongchang to intercede with me. Later, it was investigated that this person was not a traitor, so he asked Dongchang to release this person. ”
Queen Zhou Xiangyun said with a smile: "Maybe it is because this person is hiding in the Xianwang Mansion that it is difficult to find Dongchang after a hard search." Your Majesty, you see that since the rumors are spreading, why not confront them and avoid the rumors of the people that King Xian is secretly hiding a killing star. ”
Emperor Xia asked, "Since you have heard from the rumors about the hiding place of the Killing Star, what about the Scourge Star?" Zhao Jianzheng said that the disaster star is the person next to me, you can get close to me, can there be a suspicion in the rumors? ”
The women hesitated instantly, snorting.
Emperor Xia smiled and said, "Say it, I am innocent!" ”
Imperial Concubine Lin Yu'er said: "The concubine did hear some rumors, saying... said that the Seventh Highness is the disaster star, so he will collect the killing star. Your Majesty, these are all rumors, King Xian is filial piety, and he will never be able to do such a rebellious thing! ”
Empress Zhou Xiangyun said: "Yes, Your Majesty, please call the shots, and return the reputation of King Xian." ”
Emperor Xia sighed with emotion: "The princess of Xian died early, and now you still trust him so much, believe in him, and ask for him, I am very moved, since the rumors are spreading, in order to calm these down, the sea companion, pass the decree!" Let King Xian enter the palace, oh yes, several other princes will also enter the palace. ”
"Yes!" Hai Dafu immediately arranged for someone to go out of the palace to pass on the message.
