"Really?" Joseph I came to be interested, although a few decades ago, the Chinese fever in the West, because of the decline of China's national strength was defeated by the British, and some of it was eliminated, but in the past ten years, China's doors have been wide open, foreign trade is frequent, and the European nobles and royals have become interested in the mystery of the East, especially the Empress Dowager Cixi's visit to Europe, which has brought a whirlwind of China, "Shouldn't this skill be in the hands of the old wise men of religion?" ”

"No," the Empress Dowager Cixi had a mysterious smile on her face, "In the East, this ability to predict the future is not something that can be obtained through learning and accumulation, but requires talent, I happened to master this ability, communicate with the gods, in order to prepare in advance, it only took half a day, the government army burned tens of thousands of people in one fell swoop by the river, "Empress Dowager Cixi's lips were faintly purple, and she was extraordinarily supernatural, "Your Majesty the Emperor, have you heard of this rumor?" ”

"Yes. I have read in the English newspapers, www.biquge.info it was written by an old man of the Conservative Party, and the Orientals call you," Joseph I hesitated, not knowing what to say about the adjective.

"Satan's wife?" The Queen Mother smiled, "Your Majesty the Emperor doesn't have to worry, I don't mind this title, being able to be called such a title by the enemy shows that my means of dealing with the enemy are still very effective, besides, Satan's wife is said to be very black, am I that black?" ”

"Of course, you didn't," the curtain inside slowly closed, signaling that the show was about to begin, and Joseph I's eyes flashed with longing, "Can you communicate with the gods for me?" ”

Empress Dowager Cixi looked at Joseph I, "The uncertainty brought to us by the future is the driving force for us to think that tomorrow will be better, if a person knows his future, then the rest of his life will be carried out according to the rhythm that has been arranged, Your Majesty the Emperor, isn't this boring?" ”

"But if you foresee the future, wouldn't you be able to avoid some damage?" Joseph I said, the attendant came up to ask the emperor to order the performance to begin, Joseph raised his silk white gloves and stopped the attendant, "Isn't the future we want to know is to seek advantage and avoid harm?" I have deep concerns about the future, and I want to see through the fog of the future. ”

The Queen Mother looked at Joseph thoughtfully, he himself seemed to know that his situation was not very good, and he rushed to the doctor? Perhaps, "What you said makes sense, well, since I came to Vienna, invited by His Majesty the Emperor, the Chinese pay attention to fate, I came, that is, there is fate, His Majesty the Emperor asked me to ask you for the gods, it is also fate, please bring me three coins, don't care about gold, silver and copper." ”

There were people present who had coins, the attendant hurriedly ran down, I don't know where to find three copper coins, Joseph waved his hand to let the attendant go down, and informed the artists to start the performance, the accompaniment of violin and cello sounded, the queen mother pinched up the three copper coins, closed her eyes, and said Chinese in her mouth, anyway, Joseph couldn't understand it, the curtain slowly pulled up, and when the soldiers on the shift arrived, a group of children opened the way in front of the imitator soldiers, and they were still in the diligent two-quarter beat D minor, Singing the flute and drum march "We are with the soldiers", the cheerful music sounded, a timpani sounded, the Queen Mother opened her eyes, and threw the three copper coins on the chestnut small round table on the side, the three copper coins turned around and calmed down, Joseph looked down, "What does this mean?" ”

"Dear Emperor Your Majesty, do you want to hear the truth, or do you want to tell a lie?"

"Of course it's true, even if the truth is a little ugly, I'll pay attention, because it's a divine instruction, Sissi don't see it, please call me by my name, Franz."

"Okay, Franz, then I'll get straight to the point." The Queen Mother played the role of a god stick today, and she pretended to look at the three coins, "First, you are a lonely person. ”

"How could I be a lonely person?" Joseph completely ignored Carmen, a gypsy girl who appeared in a red dress and looked at the Empress Dowager Cixi, "I have my wife, and my children. ”

"This is the fate of the future, Franz, not the present." The Queen Mother was unfathomable, "Do you want to hear the truth?" Your sons and your wives will depart from you one after the other. Joseph's eyebrows furrowed, and he stood up suddenly, but fortunately the lights in the hall were dimmed, and not many people noticed it.

"You ......" Joseph glared at the Empress Dowager Cixi, and was about to say something when he suddenly thought of what he had just said, so he slowly sat down, "This is definitely not true!" ”

"This is true," the Queen Mother said indifferently, "Do you still want to hear it?" And one more. ”

"Please."

"Your chosen heir will also leave you first, and the empire that you have grown in your hands will fall apart after you die. There is no more glory of the Hudsburgs. The Queen Mother stacked the three copper coins together and said indifferently, "I'm done." (To be continued.) )
