Riding the Pheonix Chapter 246: Talking
They were not surprised that Mingwei did not observe the demon star. ()
The sea of stars is huge, and everyone has a different perspective. In the sea of tens of millions of stars, the chance of observing the same star is inherently low.
In fact, it is surprising that Yuyang and Xuanfei observed the demon star at the same time.
The emperor looked at her with a smile.
"Are you a daughter of the Ming family?"
"Yes." Mingwei lowered his head a little.
She didn't say anything about the demon star, which made the emperor feel better and his attitude softened: "Don't be so afraid. The crimes of the Ming family have been eliminated, and those things have nothing to do with you."
Mingwei showed a timid smile, like an ordinary girl: "Thank you, Your Majesty."
The emperor looked at the two elders: "The three of them have finished speaking, what do you say?"
The Head Master considered it carefully and said: "Your Majesty, observing the stars and predicting fortune depends on talent. It is not something that can only be accurately observed after practicing for a few years. Yuyang and Xuanfei are already the most talented disciples in the Observation. , even if we play, it’s hard to say that we can see it more accurately than they do.”
The emperor was displeased: "So you can't judge who wins?"
The headmaster said hurriedly: "There is a way to gather the power of all the elders using a formation to enter the sea of stars. This way, the field of vision will be wider and more accurate than stargazing alone."
The emperor nodded: "In that case, hurry up."
The headmaster hesitated for a moment: "It's just that it will take some time. I don't know, Your Majesty..."
"How long will it take?"
"The results will not be available until the evening at the earliest."
The emperor thought for a moment and said, "Let's talk about it in the evening."
The headmaster bowed and replied: "Yes."
If the emperor agrees to this matter, there will be more things to do later. It is not advisable for the Holy Emperor to return to the palace at night. He must arrange the emperor's accommodation and meals. In order to ensure the emperor's safety, the night vigil must not be careless at all.
In addition, if the emperor doesn't leave, the accompanying princes can't leave either, right? All have to be arranged.
Fortunately, Xuandu Temple is huge, so it can be arranged in a tight manner...
The headmaster was thinking about these things. After coming out, he said to Yuyang and Xuanfei: "You should go and rest first. Don't talk about the demon star at will anymore."
"Yes." The two agreed.
The dean in charge looked at Mingwei again and said: "The girl is not a person that I, Xuan Du, can control too much. It's just that this matter is not trivial. For the sake of myself and my family, I hope that the girl will keep silent." ”
Mingwei replied: "I understand, little girl."
His final instructions were: "Your Majesty may summon you at any time, so please don't wander around at will."
"Yes."
When they all left, Yang Shu said: "I'm going to see what your Majesty's orders are."
This is to find out what the emperor says.
Mingwei nodded: "My cousin and I will go back first."
Watching their cousins leave, Yang Shu looked gloomy and unclear. After a while, he gathered his mood and stepped into the palace.
Wan Dabao was making tea for the emperor, and the small stove was steaming lightly.
"Your Majesty." Yang Shu called softly.
The emperor who was standing with his back turned around and showed a faint smile: "It's Shu'er! Why didn't you go back to rest?"
Yang Shu said: "What did the two immortals say about the demon star? I thought that your majesty would be worried, so I came to see what your orders are."
The emperor smiled and said: "It's hard for you to think about me." He sat down and pointed to the opposite side.
This means talking to him.
Yang Shu breathed a sigh of relief, responded respectfully, sat down opposite the emperor, and took the tea set from Wan Dabao's hand.
Wan Dabao received the emperor’s signal and quietly retreated.
They were the only two people left in the room.
The aroma of tea lingered. Yang Shu finished ordering tea and poured the tea into the cup.
The emperor took a sip and said: "You were just like a monkey when you were a child. I never thought you could learn such a skill in ordering tea."
Yang Shu smiled and said: "It was all typed by my grandmother."
Hearing him mention the eldest sister, the emperor looked sad: "In the blink of an eye, the eldest sister has been gone for three years. In these three years, I have been living in trepidation, for fear that no one will remind me when I make a mistake."
He put down his teacup and sighed: "This is not a good position to sit in! Internally, we have to control the officials and govern the people. Externally, we have to resist the barbarians and plan for great causes. I have been on the throne for eighteen years, and I was still thinking about completing it at the beginning. The late emperor had a great cause: he sent troops to conquer the south and unified the world. But after more than ten years, he only maintained the status quo."
Yang Shu did not answer. He knew that the emperor didn't need him to say anything, he just needed someone to listen.
The emperor smiled bitterly: "Yao Xing, what did I do wrong that God wants to warn me like this?"
Yang Shu said softly: "It's not necessarily that you didn't do a good job, but that the demon star should have appeared. Now the world seems to be peaceful, but who knows how much pressure you have to bear? The Hu people in the north, the Chu people in the south The country, as well as the political and financial problems left by the late emperor's southern expedition. What you inherited was not a unified country to begin with. How can I blame you?"
The emperor seemed to be comforted by him and said with a smile: "They all say you are ridiculous and dissolute, but I didn't expect you see things clearly."
Yang Shu was a little embarrassed: "I didn't understand it before. It was only after I took over the Imperial City Department and had more contact that I understood His Majesty's difficulties."
The emperor couldn't help but sigh: "It would be great if everyone could understand..."
……
Prince Jiang Sheng looked at the palace door with a gloomy expression.
As soon as Yuyang mentioned Yao Xing, he felt that something was wrong.
When they came out, Jiang Sheng immediately asked to see him. Unfortunately, the emperor said he was tired and asked him to rest.
How can Jiang Sheng feel at ease? Not long after, it turned around again.
Who knew that after waiting for so long, he only saw Wan Dabao coming out.
"My father-in-law, my father..."
Wan Dabao replied with a smile: "Your Highness, you should go back and rest, Your Majesty is tired. Besides, this is not a big deal, Your Highness does not need to worry about it."
Jiang Sheng stared at him and thought, Wan Dabao's tone was relaxed, as if it was really not a big deal. It seemed that his father was not angry?
Wan Dabao said again: "Prime Minister Lu came here just now, and Your Majesty asked him to rest. It's really nothing serious."
Jiang Sheng's mood calmed down. The emperor trusted Lu Qian very much. If he really valued this matter, he would definitely discuss it with him. ~IndoMTL.com~Thinking like this, Jiang Sheng finally said: "Then I won't bother my father-in-law."
"Congratulations to Your Highness."
Jiang Sheng walked a few steps, and suddenly a young **** trotted out and whispered: "Eunuch Wan, the third son's name is Chuanshan."
Wan Dabao quickly went back to deal with it.
Jiang Sheng's complexion suddenly darkened.
There is only one person who can make the people in front of the emperor call him Third Young Master, and that is the Third Young Master of Bolinghou Mansion.
He was blocked from seeing him outside, but that boy was actually accompanying him inside? !
Jiang Sheng felt anger boiling in his chest.
Wen Yuan, who was accompanying him, took a careful look at him and advised in a low voice: "Your Highness, we will talk about it when we get back."
Jiang Sheng finally swallowed this breath and ordered: "Go and call Yuyang and ask him to come see me." He added, "Don't let anyone find out."
