Otaku Engineer in Great Tang Dynasty Chapter 47: Father and son night talk, shocking prophecy!
Li Zexuan entered the study room and closed the door, and found that Dad was already sitting on the Hu stool, holding a tea cup, waiting for him.
Li Zexuan sat on the other side unceremoniously, and poured himself a cup of tea. Drinking a cup of tea after a meal is good for digestion.
Father Li could not help being a little angry when he saw his son's heartless look, and said, "Xuan'er, how did you and the prince meet?"
Hey, it seems that the old man is still worried about the prince's affairs, his mentality is unstable.
Li Zexuan put down his teacup, and told him about the prince who had met the prince on the way to the West Market before, and that Zuixianlou invited the prince and Cheng Chumo to have a meal with him. Daddy Li stroked his beard and digested it for a while, then said:
"Xuan'er, you must follow the rules in front of the prince, pay attention to the etiquette of the emperor and ministers, and don’t behave like you are at home. As the saying goes, your companion is like a tiger. If you offend the prince, your father and I can’t save you. ."
I think of Li Chengqian’s little kid, if I let myself nod and bow to him, Li Zexuan can’t do it anyway, but Dad Li’s remarks are for his own good, Li Zexuan is too lazy to explain, so he can only respond vaguely. Road:
"Father, don't worry, the prince and I are friends with each other, he will not use his identity to press me."
Father Li stared: "That can't go beyond the etiquette of monarchs and ministers, what if one day the crown prince settles accounts after autumn?"
"Yes, yes, what Dad said is right, the child listens to Dad." In order to avoid being preached by his father, Li Zexuan quickly nodded and agreed.
Seeing his son’s virtues and knowing that he hadn’t listened to him, Father Li grunted and didn’t bother to persuade him anymore, and retreated and said:
"Why did your Qiquge only give the prince 30% of the stocks? Why don’t you know the superiority and inferiority? You will give the prince 30% of the stocks tomorrow. Our family is not short of money. It is really unnecessary because of this. Something to offend the prince."
Daddy, this is going to move his own cheese, Li Zexuan jumped immediately and said anxiously:
"No, the prince himself has agreed to the conditions of sharing, father, are you here to join in the fun, aren't you the emperor who is not in a hurry?"
"You bastard, dare to talk to your father like this, it seems your skin is itchy again."
Daddy Li was immediately stared with an angry beard blowing, and he was about to get up and beat someone in angrily.
Li Zexuan immediately got up and dodged, yelling as he flashed: "Mother, help, my father is going to kill him."
Father Li was even more angry, jumping angrily. At this moment, a cough came from outside the study.
"Ahem!"
Li Zexuan heard it, this is her mother's voice.
I saw her old lady push the door directly in. After Mrs. Li came in, she gave Daddy Li a cold look, then sat next to him and said to Daddy Li:
"I see if you want to sleep in the study again? What can't you tell Xuan'er? Xuan'er is so big, you still beat and scold him, so how proper is it."
Father Li lost his temper in an instant, and sat back like an angry little daughter-in-law, drinking tea in a grieved muffled voice.
Li Zexuan saw that the atmosphere was a little stiff at the moment, so he laughed twice and stepped forward to reason with his father:
"Father, that Qiqu Pavilion is Haier's first career. In the future, its scale will definitely be the crown jewel of the Tang Dynasty. Haier has already given the prince 30% of the shares, so why don't you understand that the prince sees."
Father Li obviously felt that his son was bragging, hehe sneered twice, indicating that he didn't believe it.
Li Zexuan said helplessly:
"Father, if you don't believe it, let's wait and see. In addition, there is something I want to tell my father today!"
Papa Li swallowed his tea, and said in a bad mood: "What can you do?"
It seems that the old man feels resentful, Li Zexuan said embarrassingly:
"Father, besides the abilities I told you before, his old man is also proficient in divination, do you know that?"
Father Li stared: "How would I know? Besides, what do you tell your father about this?"
Li Zexuan patiently flicked:
"Father, when my child was seven years old, I accidentally heard my master say that on the fourth day of June in Wu De 9th year (of course Li Zexuan didn’t know the specific month and day, this was because he accidentally listened to Xiaohe after returning home. Said), Xuanwu Gate will be full of corpse mountains and blood.
I didn’t know what it meant at that time. After the master passed away and I went down the mountain, I didn’t know what happened on the ninth year of Wu De. "
Li's father and Li's mother were shocked when they heard the words. They have been living in Chang'an. Naturally, they knew what happened on the fourth day of June last year. The place happened to be Xuanwumen. This matter has now become a taboo for the people of Datang, and no one dares to mention it in public.
Mrs. Li got up and said anxiously: "Xuan'er, is this true?"
Li Zexuan nodded solemnly, and said: "The child dare not deceive parents."
Daddy Li was shocked, but he was still a little puzzled. He asked, "How about your master's ability to predict the future? What do you mean by telling your parents?"
Li Zexuan got up, carrying his hands on his back and slowly said: "After the boy went down the mountain, he became more worried after knowing that the master's prophecy came true, because the master left a prophecy before his death."
Father Li was also a little nervous at the moment, and hurriedly asked: "What prophecy?"
Li Zexuan brewed a little emotion, and said in a low voice:
"My master said that in June of the second year of Zhenguan, there will be a huge locust plague in Datang~IndoMTL.com~ an unprecedented plague of locusts. At that time, swarms of locusts will overwhelm the entire Guanzhong Plain. The land where the locusts pass is a thousand miles of red land, and no grass grows. All crops will be destroyed by the locusts.
Datang will suffer a devastating catastrophe. At that time, thousands of people will starve to death due to lack of food, and it is not surprising that they will change their lives and eat. "
Both elders were stunned by this shocking prophecy and could not speak for a long time.
Mrs. Li has always been kind-hearted, most not seeing others suffer. The miserable scene that Li Zexuan portrayed at this time touched her weak heart, and her eye circles suddenly turned red.
Madam Li wiped the corner of her eyes lightly, and asked in pain, "Xuan'er, did your master say that there is a way to resolve this locust plague?" She still had a glimmer of hope in her heart.
Li Zexuan shook his head slowly, and said: "My master said at the time that even if the Turks attacked Chang'an in nine years of military virtue, it would not be terrible. Datang had Mingjun to resolve this disaster.
But the locust plague in the second year of Zhenguan was the biggest test of the Tang Dynasty that had just been pacified. No one can resolve it. We can only rely on ourselves to fight for our fate! "
Father Li also had a sad face at the moment, shaking his head and smiling bitterly: "Oh, how can I compete with the heavens if I wait for a mortal!"
Mrs. Li also nodded sadly.
The ancients have always maintained a sense of reverence for the heavens. In their view, the locust plague came to the world, and it was the punishment of the heavens on the earth. How can mortals resist, people, after all, are beyond the heavens.
Li Zexuan shook his head when he saw his father and mother confess his fate, showing no fighting spirit. It seems that his task tonight is a bit heavy. He must cheer him up. He can't do this alone. Plans.
