The first year of Yongle, April 21.

Should Tianfu survive the harsh winter, at this moment the spring is full of flowers, a hundred flowers are displayed, the scenery of the wind and snow moon in the south of the Yangtze River is about to come out, so that visitors linger and forget to return.

The warm spring sun at noon hit the pedestrians, so that the people are full of longing for this new spring, and for the new era of Yongle, it is also full of beautiful visions, hoping that the war can be abandoned in the future, and the happiness will be endless.

In front of the Zhengyangmen Water Bridge in Yingtianfu, the pedestrians coming and going were bustling, and the sergeants standing on both sides were as unmoved as pine, forming a sharp contrast.

At this time, Zhengyangmen is different from the past, and it is a little bit of a three-point market atmosphere in the solemnity, and hundreds of industries are not stopped, and they are shouting and shouting. Error-free updates @

But there is a little bit of it in the atmosphere of the market, which is essentially different from the 100 scenes of people's livelihood that come naturally.

This is very understandable, it is the "actors" who were prepared in advance to welcome the envoys of Annan today, the solemn sergeants in order to show the solemnity of the Great Ming Dynasty, and these pedestrians and business travelers were deliberately selected from the Yingtian market, creating a beautiful picture of the people's livelihood in the south of the Yangtze River.

In Honglu Temple, the officials of the same hall stood quietly in the center, holding hands to each other, talking about the belated arrival of Annan today.

Bao Yuanqian sat in front of a tea stall, Xiao Erduan respectfully offered a pot of fragrant tea, nodded and retreated. Although he was an official of the elephant taming institute, his job was to train the tribute elephants, and he should not have been in charge of the reception work.

It's just that he is particularly attentive to this Annan envoy, and Zhu Di secretly instructed him, so he naturally changed into a silk and satin robe, hid in the tea stall, and was a tea guest, waiting for the Annan envoy while tasting tea.

He drank tea in his mouth, but scolded his mother in his heart. Every time Xindao welcomes guests at this Zhengyang Gate, there must be no good thing. Last time, I waited for Zhu Di for half a day in the cold winter Layue, and this time the shelf of the Annan envoy was not small, and I couldn't see anyone after waiting for a while.

Fortunately, he was not the official who greeted him, otherwise he would stand there upright, and he would have suffered a big sin with a ghost fire in his belly.

"Fortune telling, fortune telling!" In the bustling crowd, there is a hexagram stall calling for hard work.

Bao Yuanqian followed the prestige, and the person was not like the old man with two goatees and shaking his head in his impression. On the contrary, he is a young man with a crown of jade and no beard, and he is by no means more than thirty years old.

He was dressed in a hexagram robe, wearing a yin and yang scarf, and a Taiji banner was standing next to the hexagram stall, and the yellow bell jingling in his hand was particularly eye-catching.

"Da Yao, there is no delusion..."The young man's mouth chattered endlessly, and his mouth fluttered like a dance, "Yin and Yang are derived below, the destiny of heaven in the palm of the hand, the hexagram can be channeled, and the evil will turn into good fortune, and it will be easy to come!" ”

Bao Yuanqian is an insider, and he feels funny when he hears the young man's words. If this person is not a hexagram master found in the market, then he is someone sent by the imperial court to pretend to be at will.

He performed so hard, I'm afraid it was also to win a reward or two, but... How can he really evolve yin and yang at such a young age? If you are found by unwitting bystanders, wouldn't you smash your own field?

After all, outside the Zhengyang Gate, there are not only people from the imperial court, but also a lot of uninformed people.

Just when Bao Yuanqian was secretly speculating about this person, he felt a strong wind blowing beside him.

A big man with a tiger body walked quickly, his body was steady, and he came and went like the wind, which attracted Bao Yuanqian's attention.

Bao Yuanqian raised his eyes and saw that the iron blue stubble under the man's chin did not look like a good kind.

He was overjoyed, raised his eyes and prepared to watch a good show, and said in his heart that this big man was obviously not a person arranged by the imperial court, most of him was a stunned young man who was attracted by this young man, and now he came to ask, and if he couldn't ask why, he was afraid that he was going to be embarrassed.

Dahan stopped in front of the hexagram stall, and the young man's hand stopped sharply, he looked at Dahan and said with a smile: "This brother Tai, but you want to tell fortunes?" ”

The big man wore a hat on his head, sat down and only showed his thick lips and squirmed: "It is said that human life has long been determined, and Your Excellency is just a mortal flesh fetus, even if the good luck and evil are detected, how can you change it?" And how to fight against the sky? ”

The Han was in a deep mind, and he came to ask for a hexagram, but instead of asking for a hexagram first, he made a statement to make it difficult for the hexagram master, which aroused the interest of Bao Yuanqian, who was not far away.

The young man laughed, "To change or not to change, it is not in the sky, not in life." ”

"Oh?" Dahan felt interesting and asked.

"Who is that?" ”

The young man shook his head slightly and said, "Seeking good fortune and avoiding evil, and changing your life against the sky, is just a thought of Brother Tai." If you take risks, you will be vicious, but if you can rein in the precipice and retreat bravely from the rapids, you can turn evil into auspiciousness. ”

When the big man heard this, he immediately laughed and took off his hat and put it aside, revealing his face.

Bao Yuanqian stared at it, and saw that this person was standing in his old age, with thick lips and wide mouth, swallow jaws and tiger whiskers, and his eyes were bright, and he was a fierce man!

"Hexagram master is really a good skill." The big man stared at the young man and said, "Could it be that the hexagram master has already seen one or two?" ”

The young man shook his head and said: "Brother Tai has just paced a few laps, hesitating, although he doesn't want to ask for help, he is only afraid that the matter is very important, so he can't settle down." ”

The big man laughed, stared at the yellow talisman on the stall and said, "I don't know how the hexagram master calculates?" ”

The young man pointed to the pen and paper on the table and said with a smile: "It's simple, it's simple, just write a word on the table." ”

The big man took a pen and paper in his right hand, muttered for a while, and then used his left pen to walk the dragon and snake, and happily wrote down the word "unitary".

He wrote and pushed it to the young man, and said lightly: "The hexagram master said that it is irrelevant, and the good fortune of the sprinkled family is irrelevant, so please calculate it for my friend." ”

The young man listened to him test his friend without knowing himself, took a look at it with a little doubt, and asked, "I don't know what you want to ask for your friend, brother?" ”

"Ask if it can be done."

The young man immediately frowned and groaned, shook his head slowly for a moment and sighed softly, putting the unitary character aside and saying nothing.

Seeing this scene, the big man was a little uneasy, and asked, "What does the hexagram master mean?" Can't it be done? ”

The young man nodded and said, "What Brother Tai said is exactly. ”

"How so?" Dahan asked unwillingly.

The young man pointed to the left hand of the big man holding the pen, and said lightly: "Brother Tai took the pen and paper with his right hand before, but he deliberately changed it to his left hand to write. Brother Tai is used to using his right hand, so this unitary character is written quite sloppily, crooked, and barely strong, which is by no means a good omen. ”

Hearing this, Dahan's eyes narrowed slightly, noncommittal.

The young man said, "Brother Tai is not used to using his left hand, but he does it deliberately. I want my Ming to respect the left, you hold the pen in your left hand to test and ask for your friend, and I want to come to your friend's respected status, far above the brother's platform. @精华\/Shuge Error-free Debut~~"

The big man took a deep breath and nodded: "When a real person can't be a person, you can't look good, but Mr. is young but hides it deeply. ”

When he heard this, he no longer called him a hexagram master, but called him Mr.

When Bao Yuanqian heard this, he dispelled the mentality of watching the play, and said in his heart that this young man is a good person, and he can actually figure out such a profound thing in just a few words.

The young man shook his head and sighed: "The status of the friends of Brother Taiwan is respected, and this is the word at the pass. This unitary word is intercepted from the word of respect, lacking a head and a tail, which is already a hexagram of great evil. The headlessness of this character indicates the disaster of cutting off the head, and the missing foot of the character is the chief, and the chief character is imprisoned, indicating the disaster of prison. But Brother Tai just wrote a headless and no feet unitary character, I'm afraid..."

"It doesn't hurt for the gentleman to be blunt." Although the big man is dignified, he does not shy away from it.

The young man pursed his lips and said bluntly: "I'm afraid that not only will it not be possible, but I will suffer from prison torture and then bear the pain of hatred from the head of the owl!" ”

When the big man heard this, he got up and grabbed the stone pen holder in his palm, and almost wanted to have a seizure.

The young man was unfazed, just staring at him.

Bao Yuanqian was shocked, and thought that this big man was angry and wanted to give this young man a scoop in his brain. I saw the pen holder in the big man's palm gurgling, and after a while, the big man finally sighed and put down the broken pen stand in his hand.

Dahan took out the usual treasure banknote, "Thank you, sir, for this treasure money and forgive me for being rude." ”

The young man was silent, neither cleaning up the broken pen holder nor carrying the treasure money in his arms.

As soon as the big man took two steps, he turned around and asked, "I don't know the name of Mr.?" ”

The young man stared at him, "Contemptible Yuan Zhongche." ”

"Yuan Zhongche..."The big man muttered twice in his mouth, nodded and said, "Good Yuan Zhongche, I remember you." ”

As soon as his voice fell, he walked away, and immediately disappeared into the sea of people.

When Bao Yuanqian heard this name, he came to the spirit, this hexagram master surnamed Yuan is not simple, and there was a half-immortal Yuan Tian when he thought about the Sui and Tang Dynasties.

Gang, the headrest is Qiankun, and the back seat is such a powerful character.

This Yuan Zhongche is also surnamed Yuan, and he is also so good at fortune-telling, could it be that he is the descendant of Yuan Tiangang?

He got up and left the tea stall and walked straight to Yuan Zhongche's place, wanting him to calculate for himself as well.

I don't want to just walk to the front of the stall, my eyes are blackened and I am blindfolded from behind, and a fragrance rushes into my nose.

"Guess who I am?" A coquettish laugh rang out.

Bao Yuanqian shook his head and said helplessly: "Even if I am blind, I will not be deaf. ”

He brushed aside the hand of the person behind him, and turned his head to see that it was Mu Junjiao in a fringed long skirt.

Mu Jun punched him happily, and said dissatisfiedly: "It seems that you are smart?" The people next to him also guessed for a long time, so you dare to save face to the county lord and beg for a beating! ”

Bao Yuanqian shrugged his shoulders and said, "Maybe it's what the county lord said, but why did the county lord come here?" ”

Mu Junjiao snorted coldly and said: "Dog, come here to Zhengyangmen by yourself to be happy, and you don't call the county lord." I first went to the Chaoji Courtyard, and then went to the Elephant Training Institute, and after several inquiries, I asked you that this guy is actually in Zhengyangmen! ”

"Is the county lord looking for me?"

"Can't find you if there's nothing to do?"

This time, Bao Yuan was dumbfounded, he didn't want to quarrel with him, so he walked straight to Yuan Zhongche's stall. Mu Junjiao saw that he was mysterious, and hurriedly followed.

Yuan Zhongche cleaned up the table, raised his eyes and smiled: "Secretary Bao, you are also here to calculate the good luck?" ”

"Do you recognize me?"

"Recognize, recognize, this famous Bao Si official, who doesn't know who doesn't know?"

Bao Yuan laughed to himself, he didn't know him, but he knew himself. Now he himself is notorious, and he doesn't know if it's a good thing or a bad thing.

Yuan Zhongche made a request and said, "I don't know what the priest wants to ask?" ”

"Ask about the future."

Yuan Zhongche took the pen and paper and said with a smile: "Please also ask the priest Bao to write down a word." ”

Mu Junjiao was watching curiously from the side at this time, she was extremely rare in Yunnan for these hexagrams.

Bao Yuanqian lifted his pen in the air, turned his head and raised his eyes to look at Mu Junjiao, Mu Junjiao frowned and said: "What are you looking at, be careful that the county lord gouges out your dog's eyes!" ”

Bao Yuanqian ignored her, and immediately put down the pen and wrote down the word "time".

Yuan Zhongche took a look and hissed, "Secretary Bao, what is this word?" ”

Mu Junjiao also looked puzzled, the two of them had never seen this word.

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry. Error-free update @" Bao Yuanqian suddenly, slapped his forehead and hurriedly took the piece of paper, and filled in a soil character on the inch on the right side of the word "time", which became the traditional Chinese character "time".

Mu Junjiao snorted and said with a smile: "How can this scholar not even know how to write?" ”

Bao Yuanqian shook his head, and said in his heart that he had written a simplified Chinese character, which made the two ancients puzzled. Although simplified Chinese is taken from traditional Chinese, the ancients looked at it differently today, and it was easy for people to look at it today, but it was difficult for the ancients to guess.

Yuan Zhongche held the paper and fell deeper and deeper into contemplation, and then asked without squinting: "Secretary Bao... But what is the future? ”

"Exactly."

Yuan Zhongche looked at the cold sweat, his hands slowly put down the piece of paper, Bao Yuanqian was puzzled and said, "Brother Yuan, do you know that I have a good future?" ”

Yuan Zhongche stared at Bao Yuanqian for a long time before saying, "Bao Si really wants to listen?" ”

"Listen to yourself."

Mu Junjiao said curiously: "Say it quickly, say it quickly, is he going to be clicked in the future and split up his family?" ”

Yuan Zhongche shook his head, got up a little sluggishly and pointed to this "time" and said: "This word left day and right temple, left is very easy to understand, day is the meaning of yang, living in the high sky, and even the Venerable." On the right is the word temple, the temple is also a court, and there is a law! This temple represents the law, the meaning of the imperial court. ”

Mu Junjiao was a little ignorant, but Bao Yuanqian understood that this temple does not refer to the temple, but refers to the imperial court office, the law and other majestic weapons of the country, such as Honglu Temple, Guanglu Temple, Dali Temple and so on.... These monasteries are the yamen that govern the different laws of the country.

Yuan Zhongche continued: "Left and right temple, the word Bao Si is a sign that he will live on the top of the sky in the future, look down on the common people, transcend all the laws of the imperial court, and stand alone in the world..."

Bao Yuanqian was shocked when he heard it.

Seeing that the more he talked, the more deviant he became, he hurriedly raised his hand to stop him from saying, he didn't want to lose his little life because of a word.

"Brother Yuan is inevitably too alarmist. Error-free update @" Bao Yuanqian smiled and said lightly: "If this day is the meaning of living in the sky, then no one else can write the words next to the word of this day?" ”

He thought of a word at random, but he didn't expect to be broken by Yuan Zhongche's words, and he suddenly thought of the sentence "Raise your head, the red sun and white clouds are low." ”

Yuan Zhongche said solemnly: "It's definitely not alarmist, if the official writes a word directly." However, the priest first wrote half of the word for the hour, and then added another word for soil to make the word complete. What does this mean? Bao Si disdain the current law, and want to contribute to this law and the temple in the future? Or is it that Bao Si wants to rebuild a new law, the temple? ”

"Brother Yuan, please stop here." Bao Yuanqian was slightly angry, and said coldly, "Although Brother Yuan is not shallow, he can raise his head three feet and have a god, and Bao Mou can't afford to add this crime." ”

This Yuan Zhongche is also a talent, and he actually said these rebellious words in a grand manner outside Zhengyang Gate, and Bao Yuanqian was shocked by what he said.

This can contribute to the Fadu, except for the Son of Heaven alone, who in the whole world dares to do this? Not to mention recreating a new law, Tingsi, this is a blatant statement that he is a thief!

Yuan Zhongche nodded with a smile, "Know, know." ”

At this moment, Mu Junjiao, who had been pondering for a long time, suddenly "Oh! After a while, Yurong smiled and quipped: "I understand what you mean, you mean that this Bao Yuanqian will rebel in the future.... Uh-huh..."

She suddenly realized, her voice was not small, and she attracted the eyes of the people around her, but Bao Yuanqian covered her mouth, and she couldn't say the second half of the sentence with a blushing face.

Bao Yuanqian was covering her mouth, and suddenly her palms hurt, and when she moved her hand, she saw two rows of tooth marks.

Mu Junjiao twitched the corners of her mouth, frowned angrily, and said, "You are bold!" Dare to be disrespectful to the lord of this county, be careful that I cut off your dog's head! ”

When had she ever been offended like this, she didn't expect this Bao Yuanqian to directly move her hands and feet, which made her a little resentful.

But how could Bao Yuanqian let her talk nonsense, be in a hurry, and take care of a lot! .
