Chapter 14 Fate Shines on the Stars
(PS: Today's fourth shift !!! ask for a monthly pass !!!)
It was late at night.
The nearest Chang'an City is not peaceful.
First, the greedy wolf star appeared, and the ghost star Xiahou Yuan, who had been hidden for many years, was born. Then the five princes were imprisoned in the East Palace for rebellion, and today it was reported that Yin Shanxun, Ma Anyan and Zhang Ziwu were ordered by the prime minister to arrest Su Changan, but they were all slaughtered in Tianlan. Legend has it that the blood in the Arashi courtyard is flowing like a river today, and the smell of seeping blood can be faintly heard from several streets.
As soon as this incident came out, the government and the opposition were shaken.
The identities of Yin Shan Xun and Ma Anyan are not mentioned, but Zhang Ziwu is one of the Three Princes and Nine Qings, and he died in Tianlan Courtyard so unclearly, which makes those civil and military officials how to give up.
For a while, the denunciation of Tianlan Yuan and Su Chang'an sprung up like mushrooms after a rain, and one after another was sent to the palace of Great Wei.
But the attitude of the Holy Emperor was very strange.
It was as strange as his attitude towards the Five Princes.
He suppressed all his voices, but ordered Hu Yaoshen, who was still in Chang'an, to bring Tong Jingyi to a team of black-armored tigers to surround Tianlan Courtyard, saying that it was surveillance, but it was more like protection. He even ordered someone to clean up the corpses in Tianlan Courtyard and send them to various academies.
This naturally attracted more dissatisfaction from the princelings.
So Sima Xu, the prime minister of the Great Wei Dynasty, and Xiahou Yuan, the king of England, entered the palace to meet him in the night.
"Your Majesty. ”
In the Taihe Hall of Nuoda, Sima Xu half-squinted his eyes and bowed to the man on the high platform.
Behind him, a man with a ghost-headed knife stood.
The soldiers entered the palace, and they did not kneel when they saw the holy drive.
There are only two kinds of people in this world who can do it.
One of them is as high as a prince, and the second is a celestial star.
Unfortunately, this man is both.
So even if his demeanor is arrogant, no one dares to say that he is not half a point.
However, there was one thing that made the eunuch who had been standing behind the Holy Emperor very dissatisfied.
This ghost star, Xiahou Yuan, the king of Great Wei Ying, was standing behind the old man at this moment, and the meaning he expressed could not be clearer - he regarded this old man as his master.
This is naturally a very absurd thing, a prince of Great Wei can be said to be above 10,000 people under one person, and such an identity can not bow down even if he sees the Holy Emperor. But if he worships a prime minister as his master, where is the Holy Emperor? Isn't it saying that the Holy Emperor is on par with the old man in front of him?
But it seems that the man sitting on the high platform did not care.
He didn't even look at His Royal Highness the whole time.
"Aiqing, please, I don't know what the important thing is when I ask to see him late at night?" The look on the man's face was very puzzled, as if he didn't understand the reason why the old man asked to see him late at night.
The old man has been playing with this man for many years, so he has naturally become accustomed to his path.
Therefore, he bowed down again and said in a very respectful voice: "Su Chang'an, the widow of Tianlan Academy, colluded with demons and evil spirits and brutalized Zhongliang, causing hundreds of students of Chang'an Academy to die, Zhang Tingwei, Elder Yin, and Elder Ma sacrificed their lives for the country. The old minister implores His Majesty to issue a decree to arrest the demons and evil spirits, to be angry with the people, and to comfort the souls of loyal souls in the sky!"
"Hmm?" the man on the stage looked suddenly enlightened. He patted his forehead and said, "It turns out that Aiqing is here for this matter." ”
"Exactly. ”
"Aiqing doesn't have to worry too much about this matter, the widow has his own measure. The man said casually, as if what he had said was just an insignificant matter.
Thump!
But then a crisp sound rose.
The old man knelt on his knees at this moment, and said in a sad voice: "Your Majesty think twice, now the people in Chang'an City are panicked, and the officials are not angry. If Your Majesty does not explain to the world, the old minister is afraid that the society will be turbulent, and the Great Wei will not be able to protect the country for a hundred years!!."
His attitude was respectful and his tone was sincere, but he was very much like a loyal and good minister who risked his life to give advice.
But what he said was extremely contradictory.
From ancient times to the present, the most taboo thing for all kings to hear is the turmoil of the society and the insecurity of the country. This is no different from scolding them for being incompetent and the king of the dead country.
The man naturally understood the old man's words that seemed to be persuasive, but were actually threatening.
His eyes narrowed slightly, his face was gloomy, and he tapped his fingers lightly on the desk in front of him, and the silent hall echoed with that crisp sound.
It wasn't until after a few breaths that he smiled and said with a smile: "Aiqing's words are serious." The widow said that after a few days, he would definitely give an explanation to everyone. ”
But the old man in the audience was indifferent to this, still kneeling on the ground, silent.
The man's face finally became a little ugly, but he still suppressed the anger in his heart, and after a while, he said in a calm voice: "Three days." ”
"Your Majesty Shengming!" The old man in the audience suddenly stood up and bowed.
Wait until the two of them retreat.
The strong anger on the face of the man on the stage dissipated, and he glanced at the white-haired eunuch behind him, and said in a calm voice: "It is rumored that Taibai is a real person." ”
The eunuch behind him disappeared at that moment, until he disappeared out of thin air after a few breaths.
The man sat on an empty platform, and in the dimly lit hall, only his gaze shone like a star.
About a quarter of an hour had passed.
The figure of the eunuch appeared behind the man again, and then another figure gradually appeared in the audience.
It was an old man, with sword eyebrows and starry eyes, crane hair and a childish face, wearing a seven-star robe, holding a white silk whisk.
"Your Majesty. He bowed his head to the man on stage.
"Hmm. Taibai, do you want you to calculate the things for me?" asked the man on the stage with squinted eyes.
"A few years ago, the old man calculated for this son. The man said.
"How?"
At that time, his numerology was changing, cause and effect were impermanent, and he couldn't see it realistically. It wasn't until a few days ago that His Holiness mentioned this to me. The old man just recalculated. ”
"Well, numerology changes, cause and effect are impermanent?" the man's face changed, and a divine light suddenly popped out of his eyes when he looked at the man.
"Yes. The Taoist replied with his head bowed.
"What did you count a few days ago?" The face of the man on the high platform became a little impatient.
"The old decay was calculated a few days ago, and it was shown in the hexagram. ”
"The dragon is trapped in the shallows, and the blue bird protects the lone star. Tai Sui entered his life, and the ferocity was coming. But, at this, the man paused again, as if hesitating. But after a deep groan, he said again. "But fate is on the stars. ”
"The dragon is trapped in the shallows, and the blue bird protects the lone star. Tai Sui entered his life, and the ferocity was coming. But the stars are dying?" the man said softly with a frown, as if he had heard something extremely interesting. After a long time, he came back to his senses, and he asked again, "Has Lin'er's cultivation been going well recently?"
"Hehe, the little prince is smart, and His Majesty doesn't have to worry about cultivation. The man seemed to like the "Lin'er" in the man's mouth very much, and there was a rare hint of a smile in his calm face.
"If you are so widowed, you can rest assured, there is Lao Zhenren. ”
And the old man retired. ”
"Hmm. The man bowed his head.
When the figure of the Dao man disappeared completely, the man on the high platform lowered his eyes and looked at the vast night sky outside the hall.
Said in a cold voice.
"You only give me the 800-year national fortune of the Great Wei!"
"But the widow wants him to live forever!"
A thunderclap exploded at that moment.
It was like a warning to him.
But the man looked at the thunder that pierced the sky with cold eyes.
"Are you scared? Because I've finally found the key?"
