Chapter 277: Heart Disease and Divination

On the top of the main hall, Chu Boliang's expression was respectful and calm.

He stood with his hands arched, his gaze calm, and his tone unhurried, as if he were telling a story that had been experienced in real life.

"After the man handed the jade bi to Weichen, he said that Zulong died this year, and the minister was shocked and puzzled, and asked him why, who knows, the person suddenly disappeared, if it weren't for the jade bi in Weichen's hand, he almost suspected that what he saw and heard was just a dream......"

Chu Boliang's eyes appropriately showed a trace of awe, as if what he was talking about was still in front of him.

Such a story, if it is placed in the future generations, not to mention the existence of the First Emperor, even ordinary village women, may not believe his nonsense.

But at this time, it was Daqin.

An era when witches and ghosts are still prevalent.

The Mo family said that the ghosts were bright, and the Confucians said that the ghosts and gods were far away!

Taoist warlocks are even more direct, taking alchemy, trying to pursue immortal immortality.

Ask God for divination when you have something, and ask for witch doctors when you are sick.

Not only the First Emperor, but almost everyone in the world believed in the existence of ghosts and gods. They believe that there are gods three feet above their heads, and they also believe that these gods and witches have powers far beyond the mundane.

Therefore, the first emperor crossed the Yangtze River, threw away the jade pendant he brought with him, and the water of the Yangtze River, and waited until his body collapsed, and tirelessly pursued immortality, even if he was deceived by Hou Sheng and others, he was still willing to believe that Xu Fu would ask him for the elixir of immortality.

Therefore, this lie, which was full of flaws in Zhao Ying's eyes, was quite credible in the eyes of the First Emperor.

The main thing is that jade pendant, which is too convincing.

At that time, the Yangtze River was turbulent and the big boat was difficult to travel, so he threw out the jade pendant to town the waters. The jade pendant that was thrown in such a place, after a few years, someone actually sent it back to him, this matter, in addition to the supernatural, how can it be explained?

In such waters, fishing for jade pendants is not humanly possible!

Zhao Ying quickly understood the logic in the heart of the First Emperor, so he didn't speak. Although he knew that in the afterlife, there were really a lot of equipment that could allow people to dive underwater and salvage carefully.

But in this era, he doesn't know how those people did it.

He only knows one thing, and it is absolutely nonsense to say that ghosts and gods appear.

No, even if there are ghosts and gods, he must be nonsense!

The First Emperor was silent, Zhao Ying's eyes flashed, looking at the middle-aged man standing in front of him, his voice was faint, and he couldn't hear joy or anger.

"Who else was there at that time......

"Only Weichen is ......"

Chu Boliang didn't see any change on his face.

"At that time, Weichen was resting in the post station, he had fallen asleep, and in a trance he thought he was dreaming, until he saw the jade pendant in his hand, he knew that everything he had experienced was not a dream, so he didn't dare to hide it......"

Foolproof.

Obviously, when they decided to implement this step, they were already prepared for all kinds of interrogations, so they directly stripped off all traces of everyone except this Chu Boliang.

Without others, there is no falsification.

This piece of jade pendant back then is even more convincing.

But Zhao Ying's eyes couldn't help but show a little mockery, and he confirmed more and more in his heart that this dog thing was originally lying. He didn't dare to involve too many people, because the more people there were, the easier it was to go wrong.

They're worried!

Fear that something is wrong.

After all, if it is really a warning from the gods, why pretend to be mysterious?

What's more, now that there is the first emperor and his own eldest grandson, why do you need to rely on the hand of a small messenger?

But the First Emperor had obviously been disturbed by the warning of this sudden god, and in front of the Manchu civil and military forces, he was silent for a long time, and he actually said slowly.

"What the mountain ghost knows, it doesn't take more than a year to ......"

Zhao Ying: ......

In the court, there was silence.

Obviously, the words of the first emperor were in response to Chu Boliang's prophecy of "Zulong died this year".

The reason why they only used Chu Boliang to bring a token today to bring a warning is because they can only know what is about to happen in the next year! Zhao Ying interjected just now, in fact, he wanted to interrupt the First Emperor's response.

But he didn't expect that the First Emperor still said this sentence in front of the courtiers under the shock of his heart.

Zhao Ying couldn't stop it, and he couldn't go up to cover the mouth of the First Emperor, so in a hurry, he could only stretch out his arm and pull the sleeve of the First Emperor's shirt violently. Only then did the First Emperor suddenly come back to his senses.

Realizing that what he said just now was a little messy, and it spread out of the court, and he didn't know how many turbulent waves it would cause among the people, so he flicked his sleeves and coughed lightly.

"The so-called ancestral dragon of the mountain ghost is the ancestor of man."

Whether you believe it or not, I believe it myself.

The ancestral dragon is the ancestor of man!

……

After retiring from the dynasty, the First Emperor looked at Zhao Ying, who was holding his arm, with a somewhat complicated expression.

"Today, the eldest father is out of proportion, if you don't secretly remind me, I'm afraid things will be even more troublesome......"

Nowadays, rumors have spread in various parts of Great Qin, and many places are spreading rumors that the first emperor is critically ill and cannot personally handle the government, causing panic among people.

Today's court answer, when today's answer spreads, I don't know how many people will take the opportunity to make waves.

As for how much the First Emperor was in a hurry and forcibly explained the ancestral dragon, it was really hard to say. However, now that the matter has come to this, we can only forcibly explain it first.

"The problem is not the eldest father, but that Chu Boliang, and the people behind this person, their intentions are sinister, and their actions can be punished-"

Zhao Ying's tone was very calm, as if he was talking about a trivial matter.

"Such a thing, even if it is true, he could wait until he retires from the court and report it to his eldest father in person, but he chose to appear at today's court meeting, and he chose to report it in public above today's court, and his intention is obvious! I just want to use this to shake the hearts of my Great Qin people......"

Speaking of this, Zhao Ying said very sincerely.

"Therefore, it doesn't matter what the eldest father says at today's court meeting, what matters is what they say, as long as they are given the opportunity to say it, their purpose has been achieved......"

The First Emperor was silent for a long time, and his eyes gradually became cold.

He raised the jade pendant and looked at it for a while, and then threw it to Hei, who was standing aside.

"Go-let the people of the Imperial Mansion carefully inspect it to see if it is the thing that I used to ...... Zhenjiang back then"

Hei bowed down to receive the order, turned around and left.

At this moment, the First Emperor added in a faint tone behind him.

"Chuan I order, strictly investigate Chu Boliang and all his contacts, family members, and relatives, and kill them! All the merchants and post guards who came and went to the post station on that day were all killed! ”

Hei couldn't help but tremble and turned around to salute.

"No!"

After speaking, the black hand pinched the jade pendant and strode out, without seeing the drooping old state of the past.

Zhao Ying: ......

He tried to speak several times and stopped.

Although the First Emperor's actions were tyrannical and unreasonable, this time, he didn't want to stop them. Heavy some people, want to play tricks, want to bleed, then bleed!

Start with Chu Boliang first, kill!

Even Zhao Ying himself didn't realize that in less than a year, his style of acting and his personality have become closer and closer to this era, and he has become more and more like the first emperor.

Under the butcher's knife, there will be unjust souls.

But he couldn't care less.

Because if the First Emperor has a heart disease this time, it will be a huge disaster for Daqin, whether it is for himself, or for the people who have waited for the unification of the world and the war to subside.

Some people are really damned!

……

Obviously, although it comes down to it, this incident still affected the mentality of the First Emperor, and throughout the morning, the First Emperor's mood was a little low, and the atmosphere in the apse was also very dull.

In this regard, Zhao Ying could not do anything.

It's a heart disease!

Don't talk about the first emperor, even in the later life, if there is a fortune teller who says that within three days, there will be a disaster of blood and light, I am afraid you will be a little taboo.

What's more, today's events are somewhat mysterious.

The origin of that jade pendant is too incomprehensible.

In less than a quarter of an hour, Hei returned from outside with a solemn look holding the jade pendant.

"Your Majesty, after careful inspection by the Imperial Palace, it was found that this jade was indeed the jade used to suppress the waters of the Yangtze River when His Majesty went out on a tour for 28 years......

The First Emperor was silent for a long time, and then looked at Zhao Ying beside him.

"Ying'er, you said that there will really be ghosts and gods in this world......"

Zhao Ying was speechless for a while, not knowing how to answer.

Sure enough, a lie needs countless lies to make up for it. At the beginning, in order to let the First Emperor completely quit the pill, he set his sights on the East China Sea by the way, and had to borrow the magic stick of Xu Fu.

Now, I live in Bengbu.

"Maybe there is - but the eldest father is eloquent and strategic, the remnants of the sixth generation, leveling the world, including Liuhe, and expanding the territory, guarding the border, building galloping roads, implementing counties, unifying the text, unified weights and measures, its benefits are in the present, the merit is in the future, although the three emperors and five emperors, can not reach. This great merit is blessed by God......"

Speaking of this, Zhao Ying said with a serious face.

"Therefore, even if there are ghosts and gods, they should be respected and obey the orders of the great father......"

The First Emperor originally had some jokes at the corners of his mouth, but when he heard the end, he couldn't help but subconsciously straighten his waist.

"Even if there are ghosts and gods, you should obey my commands!"

Back then, if it weren't for this pride in his heart, how could he be angry and let people cut down all the trees of Xiangshan Mountain, so that people would throw jade and the Yangtze River, and only then would people destroy obscenity.

With my approval, you are the righteous god who can enjoy the sacrifice of the world, and if you don't get my approval, then you are a chaotic god!

Punish it.

"Good!"

The First Emperor looked at his beloved eldest grandson and couldn't help laughing.

"The words of the ghosts and gods, what are you afraid of—"

Zhao Ying saw that the First Emperor's spirit had recovered, and he couldn't help but secretly breathe a sigh of relief in his heart.

"What's more, last year, there were also immortals on the overseas immortal mountain, under the pretense of Xu Fu Immortal Master's mouth, to reveal the opportunity of the elixir of immortality to the eldest father, could it be that those immortals would also be wrong......"

When the First Emperor heard this, the gloom hidden in his eyes finally dissipated completely.

If you are a god, you can't go wrong!

The words of the mountain ghost may not be credible.

But even so, he still recruited Tai Bu Cheng in the palace and asked him to divinate for this.

Tai Bucheng's name is Ji Yong, but he is an old man with gray hair, nearly eighty years old, in this era, he is already a proper old age, and he is a little faltering when he walks.

It is said that he is the descendant of King Ji Chang of Zhou Wen, and he is a gossip of King Wen in one hand, which is quite supernatural.

Won the trust of the First Emperor.

Whenever there is a big event, it must be occupied by this Tai Bu Cheng, who looks quite a bit immortal.

"The old minister Ji Yarrow has seen Your Majesty-"

Ji Ying trembled and bowed, and the First Emperor waved his hand with a warm face.

"Don't be polite, I called you here today to let you do a divination on today's court affairs and see if the good luck and evil ......"

As he spoke, he gestured slightly.

Hei on the side immediately held the jade bi just now and handed it to Ji Yong.

Ji Yong glanced at the jade bi in front of her, her eyebrows moved slightly, holding the turtle shell in her hand, and bowing down.

"No—"

Although he has been with Xu Cheng for a while, this is the first time Zhao Ying has seen people for divination, he watched with great interest this Tai Bu Cheng, who has a white beard and a bit of a high temperament, burning incense and praying there seriously, and then kneeling on the seat, and took out three copper coins that had been pulped from his body, and threw them on the turtle shell quite casually, scattering them in a whirlpool.

"Your Majesty, this is the hexagram of wandering......"

Taibu Chengji twisted her snow-white beard and groaned for a long time, and then stood up and saluted with a solemn expression.

"What's the solution—"

The First Emperor's expression was also very serious, and he looked at the hexagram thrown by Ji Yong quite seriously.

He is also coarse and easy to understand, and can roughly see hexagrams, but he is not proficient.

"This hexagram, the Lord migrates, if Your Majesty can move the people of the world, you will be lucky——"

When the First Emperor heard this, his face was very happy.

He rewarded the old god on the spot, and then turned back and commanded.

"Since the heavens have warned me, I should follow the heavens, spread my will, move 30,000 households, and enter the Beihe Yuzhong——"

Speaking of this, the First Emperor paused.

"Whoever migrates to the people, each household can be promoted to the first rank ......"

Yuzhong, which belonged to Lanzhou City, Gansu Province in later generations. It is located in the central part of Gansu Province, west of Qilihe District and Chengguan District, east of Anding District of Dingxi City, southwest of Lintao County, north of Gaolan County, Baiyin City Baiyin District across the Yellow River, northeast and Jingyuan County, Huining County.

Of course, it now belongs to the territory of Hexi County.

If you need to move people, why not move to your grandson's territory?

Zhao Ying didn't expect that he would be able to lie down and have a wave of benefits.

Naturally, he happily summoned Li Chen, Xu Zhi and Zhuo Yi, and instructed the first emperor's will, and then added with some unfinished thoughts.

"You can tell those people who have migrated that when they enter Hexi, they are the people of Hexi, and they can enjoy many benefits of Hexi, such as fields, houses, land, cattle and sheep, and seeds, all of which are provided by Hexi County - if you have contributed to Hexi, or if you know some crafts and are willing to enter Hexi workshops, you can choose a child to go to school and study......"

The First Emperor couldn't help but look at his eldest grandson with strange eyes.

This perk—

You're trying to attract all my people to run, aren't you?
