Chapter 3 Section 33 Help
Luan Niao is a mythical bird in ancient legends, and it is the messenger of the Queen Mother of the West, responsible for transmitting the message of the gods, so Fuluan has the meaning of conveying oracles.
The method of Fuluan is to write on the sand table with a pen, which is two small wooden sticks nailed into a T-shape, and the sand table is a dustpan with sand or rice. When Fuluan, burn incense and light candles, ask the gods to go down to earth, let the pen shake on the sand table, and draw certain handwriting to predict good luck and evil.
Ancient students sometimes guessed questions with Fuluan, and made a lot of jokes. Once, the people who were preparing for the exam begged the fairy to show the question, and the immortal book "I don't know" two words. Everyone was very strange, thinking that "how can there be immortals who don't know the reason", and they did it again.
The fairy wrote again: "I don't know and I don't know", everyone laughed, and the gods didn't know. The title that came out later was "I don't know my fate and can't be a gentleman", and I knew that what the fairy said was right.
There are a few more Xiucai who ask for the title of the fairy, and the immortal book "cannot speak" three words, but the Xiucai still insist on asking to be informed, and the book says: "It is unspeakable." Everyone was even more puzzled, and then asked the gods to make it clear, and the fairy book had a "signature" word, and when they continued to ask, they didn't respond. Later, I saw a chapter titled "Those who know are not as good as those who are good".
Fuluan's method of inviting immortals is very vague, which is its cleverness. "I don't know" is "I don't know my fate", "I can't speak" is "I'm not as good as it", and "I don't know" are the four "people", all of which are fulfilled with the exam questions. If it really can't be fulfilled, the "I don't know" and "can't speak" said by the fairy can be regarded as the truth.
Shangguan Wan'er was naturally very familiar with these tricks, but she wanted to see how Chengshan solved this diagram.
"The sky is vast, the wilderness is vast, and Fuluan asks the fairy to talk longer. Cheng Shan recited a few incantations in a matter-of-fact manner, causing Wan'er to hide her face and snicker.
"Okay, the Luan map has been completed, Wan'er, what do you want to know?"
"How will the national fortune next year?" It seems that Wan'er's realm is indeed different, and she asked the national fortune with one mouth.
Chengshan looked carefully at the silk sheets and saw that they were a mess with sweat stains, like an ink landscape painting of a dragon walking in the clouds and rain, so he said: "The dragon sees the head but does not see the end." ”
Wan'er was slightly taken aback, the word "Shenlong" is the new year name set next year, and it was announced on the first day of the first month that the world changed the yuan, and it is still in the stage of secrecy, how could Chengshan know? If it is really Fuluan who asks the immortals to know, it is really amazing.
"I wonder how Your Majesty will be next year?" Wan'er then asked.
"I'll take a closer look. Chengshan searched for the sweat on Wan'er's back on the silk sheets, which were light in color and evenly distributed, as if they were about to dissipate into the air.
Chengshan was trying to use the words "the soul returns to the sky", but suddenly felt a little inappropriate and couldn't say it so bluntly, so he changed it to "erratic".
"What do you mean?" Wan'er's expression slowly became serious, and these four words did not seem to imply good omen.
"Heaven must not be divulged. Chengshan shook his head pretendedly.
Wan'er also knew that most of the words were very vague, so she didn't ask more, but just silently wrote it down in her heart and slowly pondered it in the future.
"What will happen to the Prince?" Wan'er asked again.
Chengshan looked down and reached the position of the waist, the Luan map shows that there is a lot of sweating here, and there are many folds that have been pressed out, which seems to be overexerted, but it still remains intact, it seems that the force here is even, the rhythm is slow, which is the focus of the whole picture, and there are a few pieces of white pulp that have condensed, which seems to imply the prince.
"Straight in the middle. Chengshan still didn't say it explicitly, he pointed to the pulp and Madara, and looked at Wan'er and laughed. Although Wan'er's face was flushed, she also had a clear enough association, it seems that the emperor is going to ascend the throne, and Li Tang has been reinstated.
"How about Gorou and Rokuro?" Wan'er asked again.
The Zhang brothers have been accompanying Wu Zetian recently, and they have not left an inch, and it is very difficult for the prince and ministers to see Wu Zetian. And these two people are young and vigorous, I don't know what they will do in the name of Wu Zetian, so Wan'er is also more concerned about the fate of the two Zhang brothers.
"I'll take another look. Chengshan saw that the position of his knees on the Luan diagram had been worn out by the strenuous exercise and two big holes, and Chengshan smiled slightly.
"Look here. Chengshan pointed to the two holes.
"What does this mean?" Wan'er didn't know whether it was good or bad, she looked at Chengshan suspiciously, these two holes, could it be related to the Zhang brothers?
"There is a big hole in the body, what does it mean?" Chengshan was playing tricks again. "Wan'er, have you ever heard, 'The head has a big scar, and twenty years later, he is a good man again. This is actually an implication that the Zhang brothers were beheaded.
Shangguan Wan'er was slightly startled when she heard this. "Is there a bloody plague next year?"
"Wait for me. ”
There was a trace of blood in the middle of the luan picture, which was caused by Chengshan's excessive force, Chengshan pointed to this piece of red and said. "Wan'er, look here, it's about the first month. ”
This kind of solemn and harmonious expression made Wan'er feel very helpless, she saw the trace of blood, she was a little shy and shocked. Now that it is the cold winter wax moon, the first month is just around the corner, is the disaster of blood and light about to happen?
Wan'er didn't have the heart to think about it, and continued to ask. "How is King Liang?"
Chengshan took a closer look at the scratches on the Luan diagram, although these scratches were very hard, but they did not tear the silk quilt, they were still intact, and they were soaked with the sweat in Chengshan's palms, and after they were unfolded, they were like flames flying in the air, which was very beautiful.
"Progress. Shao Hui thought about it, and it was most appropriate to use these four words to describe Wu Sansi. Although Wu Zetian was forced to abdicate, it did not hurt Wu Sansi, and he also returned to politics again with his relationship with Zhongzong and Empress Wei.
"Really?" Shangguan Wan'er's eyes flashed, and Wu Sansi's words seemed to be the best.
"What about me?" Wan'er asked, not too much.
Chengshan looked at the water stains on the silk again, it seemed to be long and endless, and even the bed was already damp.
"It's a long time coming. This word seems to be appropriate, although Wu Zetian has gone, but after the crown prince Li Xian ascended the throne, he accepted Wan'er as Zhaoyi and continued to manipulate national politics.
Wan'er was quite satisfied when she heard this word, and said with a smile. "Don't lie to me. ”
"How dare you?"
"What about Zhang Cambodia and Cui Xuanwei?" Shangguan Wan'er didn't know why, she suddenly thought of these two important ministers of the court, they are highly respected, and I heard that there have been frequent actions recently, so Wan'er also wants to know, what do these ministers want to do?
"Wan'er, you have so many questions. Chengshan seemed reluctant to understand this nonsense.
"This is the last one, and I won't ask after that. Wan'er smiled at Chengshan, she hugged Chengshan's strong body, there was a feeling of a little bird, which made Chengshan feel that it was male.
"Alright then, I'll take a closer look. ”
Chengshan carefully looked at this silk picture, although it was made of fine silk, but it had broken two big holes, and there were many wrinkles and sweat stains, and it could no longer be used.
"Wan'er, do you think this Luan diagram is still useful?"
Wan'er was puzzled, and she glanced at it. "It's useless. ”
"You're right, it's useless. Chengshan is alluding to these ministers, although they can be prosperous for a while next year, they will eventually be framed by Wu Sansi and others, first take away the military power and put it on the shelf, and then they will be degraded and exiled and die in a foreign country, and the end will be very bleak. Just like this silk sheet, once used, it becomes a waste and is discarded.
"Okay, the picture has been solved, why don't you change it and draw another one?" Chengshan picked up Wan'er and threw it back on the bed.
"What else do you want to know this time?" Chengshan smiled slightly, and began to help Luan invite immortals again, but this time the scene was very magnificent, almost the entire Tang Dynasty was counted, and Wan'er really couldn't bear it......
The development of things did not exceed Chengshan's prediction, due to the cold weather, Wu Zetian's physical condition became worse and worse. She lay lazily in bed all day long, accompanied by Zhang Changzong and Zhang Yizhi's brothers. When he is idle and bored, he will also teach Shao Hui to read and write, but most of the time, Wu Zetian is mainly listening to a few of them bickering for fun.
However, I don't know when it started, Wu Zetian suddenly said that she would have nightmares at night, she didn't care about it at first, but as the nightmare lasted longer and longer, the dream became more and more real, which made Wu Zetian upset.
She became suspicious, suspecting that someone was doing something wrong, and at the same time thought that it might be a hint from the heavens, and began to change the commander of the Praetorian Army guard frequently.
Moreover, Wu Zetian's temper became a little irritable, and if he was a little careless, he immediately became furious, and people in the court began to panic, not knowing who would touch this mold.
In order to eliminate resentment, Wu Zetian sent the crown prince, Xiangwang and others to pray to heaven for peace, and asked Shaohui and Gongsun Yu to pray for blessings at the White Horse Temple and Xuanmiaoguan respectively.
"Okay, why did you suddenly start having nightmares?" Seongsan felt inexplicable.
"I don't usually see her eating indiscriminately, her life is very regular, and she basically doesn't care about political affairs, so she shouldn't be disturbed by the outside world. Could it be that her time is short?" Shao Hui observed most carefully, but he couldn't find the mystery in it.
"Can you ask Wu Zetian to let us stay in the palace once. Gongsun Yu looked at Shao Hui.
"Didn't you let us get involved in their affairs?" Shao Hui was a little surprised.
"This time is special, and we are just observing, and it will not affect the course of history. ”
"Okay, I'll ask tomorrow. ”
As expected, Wu Zetian quickly agreed to Shao Hui's request, and she ordered someone to clean up a side hall next to Yingxian Courtyard, so that Shao Hui and them could stay here.
"Are you sure you can find the problem?" Chengshan was a little puzzled.
"Almost, if we don't solve it quickly, it will affect our catastrophe the day after tomorrow. ”
