Chapter 420

Xiao Jinyan asked what was going on, and Xuanyuan said something about it.

It turned out that early this morning, Xuanyuan Yidao went to the Ministry of Justice, saying that his sword skills were limited and he could not complete the number of ten thousand swords, and he recommended the Mo family as the main sword. However, this imperial edict was issued by the emperor, and he designated Xuanyuan Yidao to execute the execution. Even if it was to be changed, it would be changed by Your Majesty. But now, the three words Li Chunti is His Majesty's reverse scale, and no one dared to ask these three words in front of him. Moreover, the executioner's selection was very cautious, allowing an unexperienced person to take charge of the attack. None of the adults in the Ministry of Justice dared to make this decision, so they had to kick the ball back.

There was no choice but Xuanyuan had to come to find Xiao Jinyan.

Xiao Jinyan said with a little regret, "Since that's the case, I can't help it."

Xuanyuan refused to give up and begged, "Brother Mo can teach Lingchi's sword technique to me? My brother's life and life are all on this matter. As for money, you can offer a price."

Xiao Jinyan shook his head, "My Mo family's sword technique has always been passed down only by his family. This is the ancestral teaching, and it has nothing to do with whether it is money or not."

Xuanyuan thought for a moment and said, "I am very familiar with the capital, and I have a few friends in the Ministry of Revenue. I have a suggestion."

“What suggestions?”

"Why would I change the genealogy to your Mo family. Brother, I am a few years older than you, so I will be your godson. From now on, I will call you Mo Yidao. My godfather is here, please accept my worship!"

After saying that, he was about to kneel down and kowtow, and Xiao Jinyan stopped him.

Xiao Jinyan was amused and crying.

Is there any such operation?

He had already made plans for the execution, but now he would not tell Xuanyuan Yidao, so he had to refuse, "Anyway, there are still ten days left, so why not make a long-term plan."

Xuanyuan begged hard, but Xiao Jinyan just refused. In desperation, he left in disappointment and went home to practice swordsmanship.

The National Master Mansion is near the Imperial Heavenly Prison, and it was transformed into a Taoist temple. Today, when the Taoist world is believed in, the Taoist status in the capital has increased. Now there are nearly a dozen Taoist sects of all sizes in the city.

The National Teachers' Mansion has the highest status and is most respected.

He also has two positions, one is the Supervisor of the Imperial Heaven Supervision, who is responsible for observing the astronomical phenomena and promulgating the calendar, and the other is the protector of the first formation in the capital, the Scaring God Array.

Of course, as a national teacher, his main job is to preach the emperor, refine alchemy and make medicine, and write flattery. In addition, if the emperor had a strange dream, the national teacher would also be responsible for the explanation. For example, before, Zhu Liye dreamed of a black dragon pressing down, which directly led to a political storm in Jiangnan.

As soon as Xiao Jinyan arrived at the door, the boy said, "Please come in, my master is waiting for you inside."

Xiao Jinyan praised: "Master Yuxi is indeed a brilliant plan."

But the boy said, "I will say this sentence no matter who comes, and don't take it too seriously."

Xiao Jinyan laughed and stepped in.

Taoist Principal Yuxi was sitting in the pavilion and reading. On the stone table was placed a book called "Dream Interpretation of Zhou Gong" that was about to be turned on. As the emperor's personal dream interpretation expert, this is a must-have. He was reading a book called "Dream Interpretation" and read it with relish, but did not notice Xiao Jinyan's arrival.

Xiao Jinyan coughed dryly.

Taoist Principal Yuxi looked up and said, "Who are you?"

Xiao Jinyan remembered that he had put on a mask, took off the mask, and said, "Master Taoist, I am Xiao Jinyan."

When Xiao Jinyan was a child, Yuxi often went to Li Chuntie's house outside the city, and occasionally told Xiao Jinyan a few times, but Xiao Jinyan was naughty and couldn't listen to it at all. Later, he went on a tide in the world and had not seen him for nearly ten years.

Principal Yuxi recognized him and pointed to the stone bench next to him, "Sit down and say, I'll finish these pages first, I have tea, so I'll make it myself."

Yuxi didn't treat him as an outsider.

After about half a cup of tea, Yuxi closed the book and sighed, "It's amazing, unheard of!"

"Why did Taoist priest say this?" Yuxi then said, "Over the years, His Majesty has dreamed in different ways every day. I, the Ming Dynasty master, are responsible for interpreting dreams every day, and I am almost exhausted. He sent someone to tell me that I dreamed that I had touched the moon and I didn't know how to reply to the memorial."

Yuxi took off his pipe from his waist, Xiao Jinyan connected it, took the tobacco from his pipe, tightened it, loose it, and full it, packed the pipe, dripped two more drops of honey, and helped him light the fire.

Taoist Master Yuxi took a breath and breathed a sigh of relief.

"Sometimes, I really want to smoke myself."

Xiao Jinyan said in his heart, "You are not smoking now, but today's affairs, he asked others for help, and said in his mouth, "It's great to be like a Taoist priest and live like a living god."

Yuxi gave him a blank look, "You came for Li Chuntie, right? Don't ask me, his affairs are private matters with Your Majesty. My words are not easy for Your Majesty to do."

Before Xiao Jinyan could speak, Yuxi had already blocked the topic in advance. Xiao Jinyan had no choice but to say, "I just want to know why Your Majesty imprisoned his senior brother?"

Yuxi sighed, "Isn't it because of the incident more than 20 years ago?"

"The late emperor's prince?"

Yuxi Road, "That's right. This is your Majesty's worries and a rebellious scale. Even if you are a royal relative, he will never allow anyone to deceive him. Yuwen Tianlu deceived his Majesty and deceived him. Li Chuntie and he was incompatible with him, but for some reason he was also standing on Yuwen Tianlu's side. I don't understand."

"How did Your Majesty know?"

Master Yuxi said, "Director Li is not good at employed people. Someone betrayed Dean Li."

I see.

No wonder Li Chuntie was taken back from control of the Dengwenyuan by Zhu Liye as soon as he returned to Beijing. Based on his understanding of Zhu Liye, even if the cunning rabbit died and the lackeys were cooked, the emperor would adopt the method of boiling frogs in warm water, seizing his power step by step, and then forcing Li Chuntie to resign instead of directly launching the imperial guards under house arrest.

"Who is it?"

Master Yuxi said, "Deputy Supervisor Vancouver. I shouldn't have told you this, but I don't want him to die in vain when I am on the same side as your senior brother and colleague. I don't want him to die in vain. The investigation of the Black Dragon's imprisonment was His Majesty bypassing Dean Li and directly issued a secret order to Supervisor Wen."

Xiao Jinyan was a little puzzled and asked out his doubts. "When I was in Suzhou, I saw Lord Wen being killed with my own eyes. How did he hide the truth and resurrect the soul?"

"You see someone's head?"

Xiao Jinyan shook his head, "No. But there is no doubt about the confession from the corpse and the sword, so I have always doubted this."

Master Yuxi dipped his pen in tea and wrote two words on the stone table.

substitute.

In recent years, stand-in-places have become very popular, especially those in the court. They recruit men with similar appearances from the people and train them to achieve the point of being fake and real. Some stand-in-places cannot even recognize those close to them.

From the mouth of Xiao Hongyu, Xiao Jinyan already knew that Vancouver was the secret whistle that Zhu Liye placed in Dengwenyuan. Combined with Yuxi's words today, Xiao Jinyan had roughly guessed the whole story of the matter.

Thinking of this, Xiao Jinyan felt a murderous intent in his heart.

Master Yuxi noticed these and said, "Don't be impulsive."

Xiao Jinyan said evilly, "I am unsolved if Vancouver is not dead."

"Did you come to the capital to save people or take revenge?"

"Save people."

"Since you can get away with the mask, your identity is in the dark. Now that your Majesty has decided to kill, he still has room for maneuver. Once you move Vancouver, you will inevitably expose your identity and alert the enemy, which is not worth the loss."

??Xiao Jinyan thought about it carefully and made a point, so he gave up the idea. He took out the three copper coins from his arms and handed them over.

When Master Yuxi saw Qilin Tongbao, he said in surprise, "Have you met Mr. Xu?"

Xiao Jinyan nodded, "He asked me to come to find the Taoist priest and divine me a divination."

Mr. Xu told him that Taoist Principal Yuxi owed him a favor.

Taoist Master Yuxi asked again, "Why didn't he give you divination?"

"He said he was not strong enough, so he sent me to you and said you owe him a favor."

Priest Yuxi didn't want to divine, especially this kind of thing that leaked the secrets of heaven. However, when he heard this, he sighed, "I gave me the position of the national teacher back then, and it turned out that he was waiting for me here."

After saying that, he wiped out his tobacco pipes and went to the basin next to clean his hands. Then he carefully took the three copper coins and looked at them for a while.

"He is generous. He couldn't bear to borrow a copper coin from him back then, but he gave you three."

Due to the special reasons of Qilin Tongbao, it is very famous in the divination world. You should know that divination is not suitable for everything. To peek at the secrets of heaven, you must use good tools, and Qilin Tongbao is one of the best tools.

He chanted the copper coin like a turtle shell, silently said a few words, sprinkled the copper coin on the table, looked for a while, and looked at it with a look of grief on his face, and said, "What a pity."

"What?" Xiao Jinyan was a little nervous.

"Fellow Daoist Xu has already transformed."

Xiao Jinyan said it was impossible. The two of them had met one month ago, but Taoist Master Yuxi said, "It must be something that happened after you left."

Another hexagram was taken.

Master Yuxi looked at the hexagram and his face suddenly changed. He saw that he was trembling all over and his speech became a little confused.

"It turns out...he knew everything."

Xiao Jinyan asked curiously, "Please make it clear."

?Master Yuxi took a deep breath and said slowly, "He was divining for you that day, not because he was not strong enough, but because he had seen the ending clearly. He asked you to send these three copper coins over, just to remind you."

Xiao Jinyan looked puzzled, "I don't understand."

Yuxi Taoist said, "Our hexagram is one, and each has its own goals. If you are ordinary divination of marriage, good or bad luck, wealth, and official career, you will not use Qilin Tongbao at all. The biggest use of this Qilin Tongbao is to divine the fortune of the world. After I became the national master, I wanted to borrow a Tongbao from him, but he refused. This time I asked you to bring three copper coins, which was to remind me to divine the hexagram."

Luck?

The world's trend?

Xiao Jinyan said in shock, "The way of heaven is coming?"

Taoist Principal Yuxi nodded, "I didn't expect you to know."

Xiao Jinyan told him about the arrival of the Heavenly Way with Mr. Xu that day. Master Yuxi then said, "So that's it. Just now, the hexagram is extremely fierce. I'm afraid that the world will be in chaos."

Principal Yuxi said again, "After Dean Li returned to Beijing, I was the first person he looked for, saying that if he did not save him no matter what happened in the future. It seems that he knew about this in advance."

"He also told Mr. Xu that Mr. Xu should stop me from coming to the capital."

Taoist Master Yuxi stared at the three copper coins, Zhen Gua, which was very bad. This is also the conclusion drawn based on the two sides of the yin and yang of the three copper coins.

However, he saw that two of the three copper coins were very close, while the other one was far apart. If we looked at them from the directions on the sixty-four hexagrams, we found another hexagram.

There are eight Zhen Gua.

If deduced according to the direction, among the sixty-four hexagrams, four or seven should be Wuwang hexagram. The hexagram is: Yuanheng, Lizhen. It is not good for it to go.

Taoist Master Yuxi deduced for a moment and said, "Director Li won't let you come to the capital. With the ability of fellow Taoist Xu, you may not be able to break through his Xuanji Formation. I understand why fellow Taoist Xu asked you to come to the capital."

“Why?”

"According to the hexagram, the way of heaven comes and the catastrophe on earth. But there is still a variable in this hexagram." He explained, "I'm afraid Dean Li didn't expect it. You are that variable."
