When the cannon fodder meets the villain boss
Chapter 58 Fortune-telling
Don't ask that the martial artist who set up the chess game opposite Zhao Xinguang is Nangong Weiran.
Coming to a deserted alley, Nangong Weiran put the basket in his hand into Naxujie.
In order to hide his identity as a cultivator in front of ordinary people, the Naxu Precept cannot be used, which really makes Nangong Weiran a little uncomfortable.
However, the time spent in contact with Zhao Xinguang was enough for Nangong Weiran to understand him.People who are good at chess must be good at planning. Although Zhao Xinguang usually gives people the impression of being a "leisure king" who ignores everything, but think about it. The performance of Li Chaozheng may not be a strategy of his forbearance.
Moreover, to be able to survive to adulthood and become a king, apart from the protection of my mother and concubine, if I have no ability, it is probably impossible
The princes of the Jing Dynasty have never really cared about the throne since the day the dynasty was founded, and every battle for the throne is often accompanied by blood.Since Zhao Xinguang was able to survive until the king opened his mansion, he must not be a person without any means.
Nangong Weiran thinks that among the three adult princes, the third prince Zhao Xinguang is the most suitable. His mother's family is not obvious, and he has no obvious advantages. He is neither the eldest son nor the first son. If you help him, you can influence this person to the maximum extent.
But Nangong Weiran is not blind, although Zhao Xinguang's face is not a short-lived person, but Nangong Weiran also wants to see King Li and King Ke.
So the next day, a fortune-telling booth appeared on the street next to Prince Li's Mansion, with a signboard reading "Three Diagrams a Day". It is very vicissitudes, but there is a dusty air all over his body.
At first no one cared much about such an old man, after all, there are many fortune tellers on weekdays, but after a day, this old man who told fortunes became a living god known to everyone on the street, because the old man did three times and three times accurately, From nothing.
Although King Li is the eldest son of the emperor, the princes of the Jing Dynasty are not as good as the princes of the Qing Dynasty. The princes can seal the king and open the mansion at the age of 15. Although they can also participate in the government, they do not have a precise position, so the king of Li is also very leisurely. As a prince and prince, besides finding ways to win courtiers to stand on his side and fight King Ke in the ring, he also develops his own power in private, and there is nothing to do on weekdays.
In order to please King Li, some of the Qing guests kept by Prince Li's mansion would tell him some interesting things in the streets and alleys, so after three days, King Li knew that there was a very accurate fortune teller near the Prince Li's mansion.
In the afternoon, King Li brought an entourage and two guards, changed into inconspicuous clothes, and came to a small teahouse near the legendary hexagram stall of the living god.
Sitting near the door of the teahouse, you can clearly see the stall with "Three Diagrams a Day" hanging on the opposite side.
"How many hexagrams has he done?" King Li Zhaoxiu asked his followers.
"I've already made a calculation." The entourage replied. When King Li expressed his interest in the hexagram stall, the entourage had already inquired clearly, "It was calculated for the shopkeeper Wang of Hefangzhai on this street. He My wife has been pregnant for nine months and is about to give birth, and the question is whether the baby will be a boy or a girl."
"Oh? Then what does the old man say?" Zhao Xiu was very curious.
"The old man said that shopkeeper Wang is a life with both children, and it will blossom and bear fruit for a period of time."
Zhao Xiu couldn't help laughing, "All fortune tellers will say that, even if the shopkeeper Wang's wife gave birth to a girl, no matter whether it is the wife or the concubine, there will always be a boy in the future. Isn't it the fate of both children?"
As soon as Zhao Xiu finished speaking, he saw a man dressed as a servant come to the hexagram stand with a basket of red eggs, and said with a smile: "Old man, you are very accurate in fortune telling. Just now my wife gave birth A pair of dragon and phoenix twins, both mother and child are safe, this is a red egg specially ordered by my master to give you, and there is also a hexagram money of ten taels of silver."
Although it was a little far away, the prince of the Jing dynasty also practiced martial arts, so he could hear it clearly. Zhao Xiu couldn't help being a little surprised. Could it be that this man is so accurate in fortune-telling?
Thinking of this, King Li got up and walked to the hexagram booth and sat down, "Old man, count a hexagram for me too."
The old man glanced at Zhao Xiu with a pair of very deep eyes, "I don't know what this young master wants to do?"
"It's strange, don't you first ask whether you want to measure characters or read palms when you do fortune-telling? Isn't that true for you, old man?" Although Zhao Xiu has never done fortune-telling, he knows a little bit about it.
"The old man neither reads the handwriting nor reads the palm. The old man only reads the face." The old man said very flatly.
"This is strange. I don't really believe that your fortune-telling is so accurate. In the future, I don't have the patience to wait for it to come true, so I will ask the old man if he knows about my situation. Young Master doesn’t count.” Zhao Xiu said with a smile.
"Okay, but the old master's hexagram is a lot of gold." The old man said lightly.
"This is nothing to me." Zhao Xiu signaled with his eyes, and the attendant immediately took out a silver coin and put it on the table, "Just don't blame me for smashing your hexagram booth if you don't allow it."
"Young Master, wait a moment." The old man took the money, and his eyes fell on Zhao Xiu's face. Zhao Xiu opened the folding fan and fanned it slowly, letting the old man watch.
After a while, the old man said leisurely: "The young master comes from a wealthy family. No one can compare with the rich and powerful dynasty. It's a pity that although he is the eldest son in the family, he is not born in the main family. There should be 13 brothers, but they are brothers with you. There are only five people who are destined, and none of these five brothers has any brotherhood with you."
Zhao Xiu's hand shaking the fan couldn't help but pause, and the look in his eyes that looked at the old man faded away from the disapproval just now.Although Emperor Jing now has six princes, it does not mean that six princes were born in the harem, but only six are alive now. Seven princes have not lived past their first birthday, so they are not recorded in the royal genealogy. It is also ranked for sequence teeth.It's just that only the royal family knows this.
Who else but the royal family can have a wealthy family that is unparalleled in power and wealth?
A cold light flashed in Zhao Xiu's eyes. He didn't believe that there really was any kind of magic calculation. With such accurate information, Zhao Xiu was even more suspicious that it was that brother who was plotting against him. Otherwise, why would this person be a street away from Prince Li's mansion? Where to set up a stall?Wouldn't it be to lure him into the bait?
"Young master has a wife and two concubines, and seven other aunts. Now there is a son and a daughter under his knees, all of whom are descendants." The old man continued slowly as if he didn't notice the cold light in Zhao Xiu's eyes.
"Excellent, you are so accurate. Then how about the old man do some calculations for me? This time, I asked Qian Cheng to see if I can get the position of Patriarch." Zhao Xiu said coldly, and then motioned to his followers, who immediately He took out a banknote and put it on the table.
The old man put the bank note in his sleeve without looking at it.
"My lord, although you have the appearance of being rich and honored, you have no destiny to hold power. All power in ten years is just a cloud." The old man said.
"Really?" Zhao Xiu smiled coldly, got up and left.
"Suspicious people." The old man sighed, and then put away the signboard. Today's three hexagrams are over, and it's time for him to close the stall.But the next moment another person sat in front of the hexagram booth.
"Also help me do the divination. I'm looking for someone, the junior who left home without saying hello to me."
The old man froze for a moment, turned his head, and looked at the man in the blue shirt who was cold all over but had very gentle eyes, the joy in his eyes was fleeting.
With a flash of light in his hand, the next moment the old man turned into a young man in green shirt.It was Nangong Weiran.
"Brother, you're out of seclusion!" Nangong Weiran was very surprised. After all, when he left, Situ Cang was still in seclusion. Once a cultivator retreats, it is uncertain when he will leave the seclusion, especially for a cultivator like Situ Cang who is out of his body. It is also normal for those who have been closed for 50 to [-] years.
"En." Situ Cang's eyes became softer, Nangong Weiran's undisguised joy put him in a very good mood. "You accepted the sect mission?"
"Yes, I am helping a prince ascend the throne. I am testing which prince is more suitable." Nangong Weiran pulled a stool and sat next to Situ Cang. He had just set up a small phantom array around him. Calculating slowly with Situ Cang, he was not worried about exposing his identity as a cultivator.
"How long?" Situ Cang didn't want his little junior to stay in the mortal world for too long. After all, there were no spiritual veins in this mortal world. Staying in such a place for too long was not good for cultivation.
"Ten years." Nangong Weiran said, "The luck of this generation of Emperor Jing is still at its peak, and it will not fade within ten years." "Floating clouds", if Zhao Xiu rebelled before the end of the ten years, it is estimated that Emperor Jing, who is still lucky, will be the winner without any surprise. ,
In order not to let his younger brother make the same mistake as himself, Situ Cang didn't let Nangong Weiran learn any alchemy and weapon refining, but he still taught him the art of hope.Nangong Weiran's qi-watching technique is just superficial to the cultivator. Nangong Weiran, whose cultivation base is higher than him, can't see the qi luck of the cultivator at all, but in the mortal world, this superficial qi-watching technique can completely is more than enough.
"Which prince has been chosen?" Situ Cang asked, ten years is still acceptable, alchemy cultivators can live for 500 years, ten years is nothing.
"I'm more inclined towards the third prince, Zhao Xinguang, but I haven't fully decided yet." Nangong Weiran smiled, "The one just now is the eldest son of the emperor, Li Wang, and his mother is a favorite concubine, and his family's influence is also good, but this person is too suspicious. I'm really a mortal who is very accurate in divination, and I can't survive tonight." Under the powerful spiritual consciousness of the cultivator, Zhao Xiu's thoughts seemed to be spread out clearly under the sun.
"Too much suspicion can easily drive his supporters into dissension." Situ Cang commented.
"I know this, this King Li can't accomplish great things, he doesn't have the courage to be an emperor." Nangong Weiran sighed, "I'm going to try King Ke tomorrow, and the royal son doesn't know what to do."
"I'll be with you for these ten years." Situ Cang decided, okay, senior brother. "Nangong Weiran smiled, his eyes were full of kindness and peace of mind.
Coming to a deserted alley, Nangong Weiran put the basket in his hand into Naxujie.
In order to hide his identity as a cultivator in front of ordinary people, the Naxu Precept cannot be used, which really makes Nangong Weiran a little uncomfortable.
