Chapter 80: Heavenly Master
Li Yuntong knew that these guards and his brother were all bloody friendships, just like brothers, and the origin of today's royal family that Du Yisong said was obviously learned from Li Jingheng.
So she smiled at her brother, laughing at him who often told her to calm down and not to say anything to others, but he was so good that he even told the royal secrets.
Well, it's not a royal secret, it's just that she wants to laugh when she thinks that her brother triumphantly brags about the history of the Li family to his companions at that time.
It turns out that the brother who is calm and introverted on weekdays also has such impulsive times.
Seeing Li Yuntong smiling slyly, Li Jingheng didn't know what she was thinking, his eyebrows raised, he was about to speak, when he suddenly saw a crowd of people on the street, all of them ran wildly ahead, and they all looked excited and beaming, as if something good was waiting.
Li Jingheng grabbed a man who ran past him and asked, "This brother, what happened, why is everyone running?" ”
"Yuan Tianshi, tonight Yuan Tianshi is going to open the door to tell the hexagram...... Don't pull me, it's too late. The man wanted to run as he spoke, but Li Jingheng pulled him without moving, so he had to say one more thing, "Yuan Tianshi Iron Mouth Divine Calculation, three people will be counted for free every quarter, no matter how late it is, it won't be able to catch up, if it weren't for the fact that Weizhou is the birthplace of the dragon vein, we wouldn't be able to invite Yuan Tianshi to sit here......"
While talking about him, he tried his best to break free, and after breaking free, he didn't even bother to find Li Jingheng to settle accounts with his sleeves being torn, and ran forward.
"Why did the master come to Weizhou?" Li Yuntong muttered to himself, then looked up and said, "Brother, let's take a look too." ”
Although her voice was small, Li Jingheng heard it, he couldn't care about the surprise caused by listening to that person before, and his sister's words shocked him even more at this time, "You have always refused to tell us who your master is, but I didn't expect that he turned out to be Yuan Tianshi?" ”
Yuan Tianshi, Yuan Tiangang, proficient in feng shui, astronomy, astronomy, prediction of the unknown, the number of techniques, etc., is not happy, famous for physiognomy, is the emperor and the current son of the throne of the guest.
It is rumored that Yuan Tiangang once met Du Yan, Wang Qi, and Wei Ting in Luoyang, predicting that Du Yan would be famous all over the world for his noble articles; Wang Qi will not be a general in ten years to the fifth grade; Wei Ting looks like a tiger and will be appointed military attaché. He also predicted that the three of them would be demoted after becoming officials, and everyone would have the opportunity to meet in the future......
As a result, during the reign of Tang Gaozu Wude, Du Yan was selected as a bachelor of Tiance with the history of serving the emperor; The crown prince Li Jiancheng recommended Wang Qi to be the fifth prince Zhongyun, and Wei Ting was appointed as the military attache Zuo Wei rate. When the three of them were having a smooth sailing career, they did not expect to be implicated in a palace coup and be demoted to Junzhou, and met Yuan Tiangang again.
Yuan Tiangang saw the three of them, and predicted for them again, saying that "the public is expensive in the end", and later Du, Wang, and Wei Zai all rose again, and the officials reached the third grade, and their future and ending were completely consistent with Yuan Tiangang's prediction.
By the time of Taizong of the Tang Dynasty, Yuan Tiangang had become famous all over the world for his physiognomy prediction, and became the guest of honor of the Son of Heaven, known as the Heavenly Master.
Such a master turned out to be Li Yuntong's master, no wonder Li Jingheng was so excited.
Although he guessed that it was a master who taught his sister to learn divination, feng shui and other skills, Li Jingheng never expected that Gao Cheng would be like this, and his sister's master would be the most powerful Yuan Tianshi in the dynasty.
At that moment, he said excitedly: "Yuan Tianshi Shenlong saw the head and the tail, I didn't expect it to haunt here, hurry up, sister, let's go quickly, you will introduce you to your master for me in a while, and ask him to help me do the math." You always say that diviners are not close relatives, and this opportunity cannot be missed......"
As soon as he was excited, he forgot that he should call Li Yuntong his second brother.
"My master won't be so swaggering......" Li Yuntong muttered, but Li Jingheng didn't listen to the excitement at all, and dragged her forward with the crowd.
Well, my brother's usual calmness is an illusion, and this encounter that makes him excited is revealed.
By the time they got to the place, it was already crowded.
Fortunately, several martial arts skills protected Li Yuntong in the middle, squeezed three and two, and squeezed into the front row.
I saw a middle-aged man in his forties, with a white face and long beard, wearing a cyan robe, and a pink-carved jade child on the left and right.
Not only that, but there was a small official in an official uniform sitting with the middle-aged Taoist priest, and there was a team of errand officers on each side to maintain order.
This is even more in line with his identity, the heavenly master who is valued by the Son of Heaven must have someone in the government to take care of him.
Li Jingheng pulled his sister and wanted to step forward, but Li Yuntong pulled him and said softly: "It's not my master." Afraid that her brother would tear down other people's platforms, she said, "Let's take a look at the excitement and don't make trouble." ”
Since he can attract the praise of the people, this person must have a bit of Taoism, after all, it is easy to pretend to be a ghost once, and it is not easy to say it every time.
Although there were a lot of people, it was obvious that everyone was in awe of this "Yuan Tianshi", and they didn't need to shout at the servants, they just stood behind the white line drawn in a proper manner.
There was a little Taoist boy who held a bamboo stick and gave one to each person who wanted to tell fortunes. Li Yuntong looked at his own one and saw that it was written with a number, Yi Shi Lu.
Li Jingheng and the others also took a bamboo skewer marked with a number.
She didn't understand a little, and was about to ask someone, when she heard the explanation of someone next to her and her partner, "This sign is going to be taken, only a hundred people will be sent, and after a while, the Taoist will order someone to draw the first number at will, and whoever draws it will give him a free fortune telling, and the first person who is drawn will draw the second person...... The horn has been inspected by the government, and there is no possibility of cheating...... You must know that on weekdays, I ask Yuan Tianshi to calculate the hexagram, but the price of a thousand gold, if you miss it this spring, you have to wait until the summer to have a chance to ......"
I understand, this "Yuan Tianshi" free hexagram every season is to build momentum, and if you want to find him on weekdays, you have to spend money.
His free hexagrams every season made him famous, and naturally the hexagrams on weekdays rose to the top.
Fame, fame and fortune, if you are famous, you can get profit!
If my brother shouted "He is not Yuan Tianshi" at this time, would anyone believe it, but it would be a loss of money.
Cutting off people's wealth is like killing their parents, this is a mortal enemy, more things are better than less things, they should just take a look.
Li Yuntong immediately tugged at his brother's sleeve and signaled him not to speak.
Li Jingheng didn't speak, and his guards naturally didn't speak, but only stood in the four corners, surrounding their brothers and sisters.
Li Yuntong also thought of these truths that Li Yuntong wanted to understand, but he thought more deeply than his sister.
A Taoist priest, if he can coerce the will of the people and use it well, is a sharp knife of the local government, and if it is used badly, it is likely to cause civil unrest.
For example, if he told him that there would be a flood in three days, and convinced his people, he would immediately pack up his belongings and move to another country, resulting in a situation where ten rooms and nine rooms were empty.
He wants to say that whoever has the spirit of a king can cause the family to make trouble and do the thing of replacing the old with the new.
Thinking of this, Li Jingheng's eyes were a little more dignified.
When the influence is great enough, the prophecy of the warlocks has the power of the sword, which can make people want to be and can also make people feel back.
The rise of the Li dynasty is said to have been that a scholar once visited Tang Gaozu Li Yuan, saying that he was a noble man, and he was destined to have a noble son. At that time, Li Yuan's son Li Shimin was just four years old, and the scholar saw him and said that his appearance was like "the posture of a dragon and a phoenix, the face of heaven and sun", and he would definitely be able to help the world and the people in the future.
Although Tang Gaozu was skeptical, he finally named his second son Li Shimin.
This is also an important reason why Tang Taizong Li Shimin was able to become the crown prince smoothly after the Xuanwumen Change, and was called a good emperor by the world.
After all, even if it is for self-preservation, the bloody coup d'état of killing his brother and forcing his father to abdicate is still not glorious enough to say.
But since some Xiangshi had predicted that Tang Taizong was "the posture of the dragon and phoenix, the watch of the sky", then his ascension to the throne of God was just to set things right and conform to the mandate of heaven.
Therefore, the people have said that when today's son is shengming, he will inherit the destiny of heaven.
This is the human heart, and this is the empirical evidence that physiognomy can subvert the human heart when it is influential enough.
Although Li Jingheng didn't expect so much, he understood that such a sought-after Xiangshi would affect the local government decree to a certain extent.
I just don't know if Li Yanzhi, the assassin of Weizhou, just conforms to public opinion, or has other plans.
When they sent off their relatives this time, the Son of Heaven also gave them a task, so that they could understand the people's livelihood and political achievements everywhere they went, and send what they saw and heard back to Chang'an through the post station of 800 miles.
When something like this happens, of course Li Jingheng has to take a good look.
Therefore, without Li Yuntong's explanation, he will also keep his mouth shut and quietly watch the Taoist divination fortune telling.
"You draw the first hexagram." Xiao Daotong casually ordered a thin middle-aged man and handed him a trumpet.
The crowd became excited, and they all stretched out their hands, held up their bamboo sticks and said, "Pump me, smoke me ......"
The thin man was blindfolded, and he couldn't see the number in the trumpet, so he flipped through and picked it up, and finally touched a paper roll, and Dao Tong took off his blindfolded scarf and motioned for him to hand the paper roll to the official in charge of verification.
"Fifty-seven." The little official slowly unfolded the scroll of paper and read it out slowly in the expectant eyes of everyone, "Fifty-seven is the first, come up." ”
A white fat man jumped up, "It's me, it's me......" He squeezed forward from the crowd, and most of the people he passed by would touch his hands, and when they touched their hands, they were all beaming, as if they had drawn themselves.
"This is the joy of the people, the joy of him, even if he can't win the lottery, he can have a smooth season, everything is safe......" There are people who understand and the explanation that they don't understand, "Don't believe it, my neighbor Ma Liu, last autumn season, was lucky to meet with the person who won the lottery, his daughter-in-law was originally difficult to give birth, but after he went back, he gave birth to twins smoothly that night......"
Hearing this statement, the person who had not touched hands with the white fat man before let out a regretful sigh of regret.
