After becoming the king of the subjugated country

Chapter 49 Don't worry about divination

Seeing that the two groups of people began to quarrel again, to cheer for the pair he wanted to stand on, Ji Chen couldn't help but look away, and looked at Qin Shu who was in a hurry, but Qin Shu looked at him with resentful eyes.

Ji Chen paused, "Do you have an opinion?"

Qin Shu woke up instantly, "No, no."

He only dared to silently support Shang Nan in his heart, after all Ji Chen was standing in front of him.

"How long have they been discussing?" Ji Chen was really curious.

Qin Shu faltered, looked down at the ground, and dared not say a word.

Ji Chen couldn't help turning his head to look at him, "It's been more than ten days?"

Qin Shu showed an awkward yet polite smile, and nodded stiffly.

Ji Chen judged: "According to the time, you should have known it long ago."

Qin Shu tried to explain: "At the beginning, a passerby accidentally made a mistake, saying that His Majesty fell in love with Shang Nan, and then the people around him also started discussing it. I stopped them several times in the teahouse and didn't allow them to discuss it. As a result, -"

"As a result, the more you forbid them, the more they want to know the truth, and the more they like to discuss it behind their backs. In the end, everyone knew about it. In addition, I summoned Shang Nan once, and the atmosphere became even more unusual." Ji Chen continued. .

Human nature is like this, the more you don't let him do it, the more he will do it.Just like "Jin|Ping|Plum", as soon as it is mentioned that it is a banned book in ancient times, many people are completely refreshed. They want to read one or two, and it is widely circulated in private.

Qin Shu: "..."

Because what Ji Chen said was too correct, he had nothing to say.

Ji Chen rubbed his chin, and became serious, "But what they said is not completely wrong, I really have my eye on Shang Nan."

Qin Shu: "?"

After a while, he realized what Ji Chen was talking about, his heart skipped a beat and his eyes lit up.

Seeing this, Ji Chen raised his eyebrows, ruthlessly broke Qin Shu's fantasy, and said leisurely, "But you don't need to know about it later."

Qin Shu's eyes became more resentful.

The teahouse has always been the front line of eating melons. As a melon owner who has received countless news from courts, Qin Shu has always been able to eat a melon at once, and then share this melon with more people.

But now, he has learned such an important news, but he can neither share it, shake his head and shout for Shang Nan whom he admires, nor can he shake Ji Chen's shoulder to make him explain all the current situation clearly.

After being bullied by a handful of silly spores, Ji Chen returned to the palace refreshed, his eyes flicked across the rosters of the ministers, and finally hit the supervisor of Qin Tianjian, "Go and give this Lord Sang Xisang to you!" I invite you."

Naturally, there should be eunuchs, so they retreated carefully.

When Sang Xi, the inspector of the Qin Tianjian, came to the imperial study, he changed his clothes on purpose. He didn't think that he only needed to be the same as when he went to court in the past, but he walked heavily with the same mood as when he went to the grave. Here, kowtow to the emperor.

Before coming, he reviewed the "good things" he had done in the past.

Well, 23 years ago, he first 'calculated' that Empress Song was born with a phoenix fate, so the first emperor took advantage of the opportunity to abolish Empress Qiao; then 21 years ago, when Ji Chen was born, he 'calculated' that the birthday of His Majesty Ji Chen is inauspicious. Unfavorable to the prince, Ji Chen was thrown into the cold palace; 18 years ago, when Ji Pei was born, he came out again, and Ji Pei entered the Huangjue Temple; 14 years ago, the princess Ji Shao was born, and also went to the cold palace.

But now, only the fact that Ji Chen's birth date is unfavorable to the queen and the prince is the most accurate. At least the queen of Song was forced to become a monk, the prince died, and Ji Chen had the last laugh, even pulling his younger siblings.

... But the problem is that he has offended all of these final winners.

The first emperor told him to count, can he say no?Even if those things are not calculated by him, there is no way, who told him to live a long time, so far he has not been laid off. He has handed over the paperwork for begging for bones three times, but has been withheld, and His Majesty has not approved it at all.

Zheng Sangxi, the inspector of the Qintian Supervisor, saluted in an orderly manner, and stood there peacefully, not daring to say a word.

Ji Chen looked at him lazily, um, it is said that this man is 60 years old, with a long beard, and looks like a fairy, but he has a special charm. No wonder the late emperor never thought of changing to a supervisor.

Ji Chen said kindly: "I heard that Mr. Sang is good at fortune-telling."

Zheng Sangxi, the inspector of the Qintian Supervisor, fell to his knees with a plop, and screamed sadly: "Your Majesty, the old minister's strength is poor, and he was forced to talk nonsense in the past. The minister's level of fortune-telling is really ashamed to be seen by others, and he can't stand on the stage at all. "

It's over, do you want to settle accounts with him?

Ji Chen: "?"

The gentle smile on Ji Chen's face disappeared in an instant, and he said with a cold face: "Shut up, I say you can do it, and if you can't do it well, just wait for your head to move."

He was so enthusiastic when he was counting for the first emperor, and he wanted to turn his head and run away like seeing a ghost when he got to him, isn't that plausible!

Zheng Sang Xi, the supervisor of Qin Tianjian, suppressed tears, "Yes, what your majesty said is true, please give me your orders."

Sure enough, this is His Majesty's true face.

Ji Chen said nonsense, "You watched the stars at night and found that there will be a large-scale drought in the northern part of Yue Kingdom in September this year, especially near Kyoto."

Zheng Sangxi, the inspector of the Qintian Supervisor, was stunned for a moment, with a blank expression on his face, "Huh?"

This, this, what kind of personal fate was he only counting before.

How dare he talk nonsense about national affairs.If he made a mistake, his life would be lost.

Ji Chen continued: "Then you continue to observe the astrology, and finally find that next June, there will be floods, followed by plagues, and the last two years will not be very peaceful."

Zheng Sangxi, the inspector of the Qintian Supervisor, tried his best to write it down. After listening to the content, his face gradually became dull and his lips trembled.

Ji Chen said: "I don't care what reasons you find or what excuses you use, in short, you write the memorial immediately, and it will be presented at the court meeting tomorrow, and then calculate a few hexagrams, and arrange the hexagrams in advance. Convinced. If other people have problems, I will only come to you, and you will bear all the responsibilities if you can’t solve them.”

Zheng Sangxi, the inspector of the Qintian Supervisor, nodded with tears in his eyes. If this is not done well, will he lose his head?Of course, if he does well, will His Majesty let go of the things he did before?

Ji Chen didn't understand why the person in front of him was crying and laughing, and finally he looked grateful to him. He watched the person salute in bewilderment, and decided to ask someone to keep an eye on him to ensure that the prison is strong enough.

The next day, at the court meeting, Zheng Sangxi, the supervisor of Qintian Supervisor, took a deep breath and said loudly: "Your Majesty, I have something to report."

Prime Minister Qin had been ill for several days, and it was rare to attend the court meeting today. When he saw Sang Xi standing up, he couldn't help frowning, but he didn't stop him.

Zheng Sangxi, the inspector of the Qin Tianjian, took out a large pile of cracked tortoise shells, divination documents, and drawings of the astrology he observed, and said loudly: "Your Majesty, I observed the astrology last night and found that the star of Yinghuo moved to the left. I'm afraid that something big will happen in Vietnam."

An old minister next to him couldn't hold back, and burst out laughing.

I have been an official in the same dynasty for so many years, who still doesn't know who.

Zheng Sangxi, the supervisor of Qin Tianjian, didn't care about other things, and showed his acting skills all his life, and shouted heartbreakingly: "Your Majesty, in September this year, the country of Yue will experience a large-scale drought; in June of next year, the country of Yue will experience floods. The dam collapsed; after the flood, there will be a plague, and the next time, I am afraid that the country will have no peace."

Prime Minister Qin's face darkened, "Lord Sang, be careful!"

He is getting old, the last thing he wants to hear is other people saying that the country of Yue is not peaceful or something is wrong.

Ji Chen cheered up, "President Qin, don't be nervous, Mr. Sang, you continue."

Zheng Sang Xi, the supervisor of Qin Tianjian, had tears in his eyes, did he just want to say this?

He didn't sleep all night last night, pulling his disciples and descendants crazy to draw hexagrams and images, trying to burn the tortoise shell and forge the traces, just to make today's performance perfect.

He took a step forward and recounted his content in detail, and the little eunuch quickly took the pile of papers. Sang Xi cupped his hands and said: "Yes or not? Yes, colleagues, please share with me. Everyone can learn from it." Having read "Book of Changes", you must be no stranger to these things."

The little eunuch lowered his head and handed out the papers, allowing the courtiers to pass them around.

Prime Minister Qin glanced at him suspiciously, picked up a hexagram and examined it carefully, the more he looked at it, the more he frowned, and he looked at Zheng Sangxi, the supervisor of Qintian Supervisor, in amazement.

Looking carefully, Prime Minister Qin found that Zheng Sangxi, the supervisor of Qin Tianjian, had red eyes (due to not sleeping all night), looked haggard, and looked at His Majesty nervously, as if he was worried about the country and the people.

He still has this ability and this heart?

Prime Minister Qin began to wonder if his previous judgment on Sang Xi was too subjective.

The ministers below began to whisper and discuss with each other.

They doubted or didn't believe it, and they were also a little worried and fearful, afraid that this would come true.

Anyone can see that after such a set of combined punches, the strength of the Yue Kingdom has been greatly damaged, and Xia Guo's envoy group is coming, Xia Guo has been eyeing the Yue Kingdom for a long time.

The Yue State is their foundation, and if the Yue State is finished, they will not be much better.

Zheng Sangxi, the supervisor of Qin Tianjian, was emotional and impassioned, "The minister did some calculations again, and only then discovered that it was because the late emperor killed too many Zhongliang during his reign, and His Majesty lacked the stars of Wenqu and Wuqu to accompany him. caused this."

This sentence was added by himself. After all, these blames have to be blamed on others. He dared not ask His Majesty to fight against him, so he could only put the blame firmly on the head of the first emperor.

Ji Chen propped his chin, "I see that what these blueprints say makes some sense. As the saying goes, the disaster has not yet come, so it is better to arrange it first. The Hanlin Academy first writes some sins in the name of the late emperor, and is always ready. It’s what Mr. Sang said, I thought, no matter what else, let’s solve the recent drought first.”

Well, if you really count, it's only a month.

It is not enough to do something else, but it is enough to prepare food in advance and place it in the disaster-stricken area.

After all, transportation was inconvenient in ancient times, and we waited until the problem happened before going through the process and delivering food. By the time we got to the place, less than half of the people would have starved to death.

Ji Chen continued: "I see that the well-drilling and waterwheel methods of the Baiyi people are good, but I think they can be used. I plan to send someone to go there. If you ministers are willing, you can come to me to discuss this matter."

To be honest, the sequence of disasters is: drought-flood-plague-drought...

So, if the wells are dug slowly, the waterwheels are installed little by little, and the technology is acquired first, it will always be usable.

"Your Majesty," at this point, Qin Sheng stood up suddenly, cupped his hands and said, "I am willing to go. The revision of the regular script that I am in charge of has been completed, and now only the final finishing touches are needed. The absence of the minister will not affect the progress."

The Minister of the Household Department who was closest to Prime Minister Qin's eyes widened, and said to Prime Minister Qin in a low voice, "The Baiyi people seem to be in Lingnan, right? That place is poor, with bad mountains and rivers, and there are miasma and poisonous snakes. The environment is really dangerous."

He tried to hint with his eyes, why don't we go?

Prime Minister Qin looked at Qin Sheng for a few seconds, and said in a deep voice: "I have the audacity to recommend my son Qin Sheng to go. He has a suitable official position, and he has some experience now, so he can take on heavy responsibilities."

This path may be difficult, but since it is the path he chose, as a father, he should also be proud of him.

Ji Chen suddenly became quiet.

In the novel, Qin Sheng was demoted to Lingnan by Ji Han, and then all the news and books were cut off. When he returned to the capital, the Qin family had disappeared, all relatives had passed away, and his temperament changed drastically.

The gears of fate seem to be turning quietly at this time, and Qin Sheng has finally embarked on the road in the novel, but everything seems to be different again.

"Okay," Ji Chen paused, and promised, "Don't worry."

Kyoto has me.

It will never let you down.

Qin Sheng was overjoyed, "Thank you, Your Majesty."

At this moment, he is in high spirits, different from the decadent and restless in the novel.He believes that his journey will be smooth, and he will also bring back information from the Baiyi people to relieve the crisis of the Yue country.
