Chapter 209 The initiative of No. 1(1/2)
Zhong Li cocked his head, tilted his head, thought for a few seconds, and said: "The earth's veins are like human meridians. The trends of mountains, rivers and rivers are all affected by the earth's veins."
After a pause, he continued: "Ley veins are a general term, divided into twelve types, which coincide with the twelve main meridians of the human body. They are very important in Feng Shui. Land with earth veins is a treasure land of Feng Shui. When building a house and choosing a cemetery, pay special attention to the earth veins.
....."
Xu Qian's scalp went numb after hearing this, so he simplified it a bit and replied in the Earth Book chat group: [The Earth Meridians are equivalent to the meridians of the human body and correspond to the twelve main meridians.]
Finish.
Everyone in the Tiandi Club waited for a long time, but did not see the follow-up, and fell silent for a while, which was equivalent to saying nothing.
However, Xu Qi'an remembered a small thing. When he bought a new house and took Chu Caiwei to check the feng shui, there was a female ghost in the well of Xu Mansion, and ghosts cannot survive independently in the earthly world.
At that time, Chu Caiwei went down to the well to check and found a Yin vein at the bottom of the well.
Yin veins are presumably also a type of earth veins.
Thinking of this, Xu Qian asked again: "Senior Sister Zhong, are there any earth veins in the imperial city?"
Zhong Li said softly: "Of course there is a ground vein in the imperial city, and its name is Dragon Vein."
Without waiting for Xu Qian to ask, she explained thoughtfully:
"Dragon veins are an extension of luck. Six hundred years ago, Dafeng established his capital here. The capital's veins were nourished by purple gas, blessed by the luck of a country, and blessed by the will of the people. Over time, they transformed into dragon veins.
.”
Dragon veins are a type of earth veins, but dragon veins are also an extension of luck...Xu Qi'an pondered: "Does dragon veins have any function?"
Zhong Li muttered:
"Just like if the feng shui of ancestral tombs is destroyed, it will affect future generations, the dragon vein and the sword of Zhenguo have similar effects, suppressing the fate of a country. On the anniversary of the Zhou Dynasty, Qian Zhong, a great scholar of Yunlu Academy, brought people's complaints into the capital of the Great Zhou Dynasty and died.
At the cost, he ruined the final national destiny of the Great Zhou Dynasty. What he hit was the Dragon Vein.
"There is a proverb among us warlocks, whoever gets the dragon's veins gets the world."
I don’t understand it very well, but I feel it’s very powerful...Xu Qi’an wrote: [There are dragon veins in the imperial city.]
Then he asked Zhong Li: "Can you control dragon veins?"
Zhong Li was stunned for a long time and said weakly: "The dragon vein suppresses the fate of a country. Even Teacher Jianzheng does not dare to touch it easily."
Xu Qi'an immediately relayed the characteristics of the dragon veins to everyone in the Tiandi Club.
Chu Yuanzhen analyzed: [If even the supervisor dare not touch the dragon vein easily, then it is even less possible for King Huai’s secret agent to use the dragon vein to escape. Is my idea wrong? 】
The speculation has reached a stalemate, and even Xu Qian has no clue for the time being.
At this moment, No. 1 suddenly said: [I will investigate the Hengyuan matter and leave it to me, and none of you will have to worry about it. 】
Hey, No. 1 is so proactive, this is not in line with his (her) character...Xu Qi'an was surprised.
Among the holders of the Book of Earth Fragments, No. 1 is the most low-key and has the most mysterious identity. There is a reason why No. 7 and No. 8 are unable to bubble up. Only No. 1 rarely shows up. He occasionally participates in discussions, but only stops talking.
Never with the Book of Earth Fragment Holder offline base.
Not only him, but also members of the Tiandihui were surprised. Such a proactive attitude was not in line with No. 1's usual style.
[1: In the Tiandihui, no one except me can freely enter and leave the imperial city. I can even find a way to enter the palace. Whether it is Hengyuan or the tunnel, I have more advantages and safer than you.
[Of course, if I need help, I will ask you for help, and I hope you will not refuse.]
This reason was reasonable and reasonable, and it easily convinced everyone, and made Xu Qian and others feel relieved from the bottom of their hearts.
Indeed, the current imperial city and palace are forbidden areas for them. Even if Xu Qi'an can sneak into the imperial city quietly, he can only accompany Huaiqing and Lin'an, lacking the conditions to act alone.
It's just a good opportunity to test No. 1's ability and identity... Chu Yuanzhen thought to himself.
Number 1 can freely enter and leave the imperial city, and even find opportunities to enter the palace. This shows that he has a high status. One of the princes? A royal family or a noble? Li Miaozhen secretly wondered.
Phew, someone has finally taken over the matter of Master Hengyuan, then I can rest assured and go to sleep... Lina thought happily.
...........
In the next two days, the imperial court and the Yaoman delegation negotiated several times, but no results were achieved. The two sides have not reached an agreement for the time being.
Xu Qian stayed away from the temple and did not care about this matter. He went to hide in the widow's courtyard for the past two days. The reason was that after the literary meeting, scholars from all walks of life kept sending messages to Xu's house.
Some want to visit him, some want to ask him out for a drink, some want to marry their daughter or sister to him, and also include their birthdays and horoscopes.
During the Buddhist fighting period, although Xu Qi'an was famous far and wide, scholars still had a layer of prejudice against him and did not completely regard him as "one of their own."
After the massacre in Chuzhou, Zhao Shou publicly announced in court that Xu Qi'an was his disciple, and Xu Qi'an officially became "one of his own" in the eyes of scholars. However, Emperor Yuan Jing was so angry that time that no one dared to get close to Xu Qi'an.
After the Wenhui turmoil, Xu Qian became popular.
These are all minor problems. What really makes him unable to stay at home are the several great scholars at Yunlu Academy.
The day before yesterday, the wind was so noisy that Xu Qian's eyelids twitched.
Dean Zhao Shou arrived, wearing a starched white Confucian shirt, messy hair, and a cynical appearance.
Xu Qian respectfully led the nominal teacher into the hall, served him tea, and after chatting, Zhao Shou asked: "Ning Yan is good at the art of war. Is there any other handwriting of that military book?"
Zhao Shou came to read the book, and wanted to include the military book in the academy's library.
I don’t have a hand copy, but recently I can’t help but want to do it by hand... Xu Qian, who had not been around women for four months, regretfully rejected Zhao Shou.
At this time, the great scholars Zhang Shen, Li Mubai, and Chen Tai paid a visit.
Seeing Dean Zhao Shou, the three great scholars looked disdainful.
Zhang Shen: "Poem thief!"
Chen Tai: "Thief!"
Li Mubai: "Shameless old thief!"
The three of them said in unison: "Bah!"
Then Dean Zhao Shou became furious and followed suit, waving his sleeves and saying, "Retreat a hundred miles."
The three great scholars waved their sleeves: "Don't retreat!"
"Retreat a hundred miles."
"No retreat."
"Retreat a hundred miles."
"No retreat."
During this unique magic contest, Xu Qi'an slipped out of Xu Mansion. Before leaving, he turned around and saw the potted plants placed by his aunt in the hall smashed to pieces on the ground.
Seeing Xu Lingyin joining the battlefield, she stood aside: "tuituitui..."
Li Miaozhen risked her life to rescue this stupid girl, otherwise she would be sent hundreds of miles away.
The princess's little life was particularly nourishing, not just physically, but mentally.
She was free and had no shortage of food, clothing, housing and transportation. Xu Qian often accompanied her to go shopping, eat snacks, watch operas, etc.
The nine-color lotus root is growing very well. It has begun to sprout and has grown another length. Xu Qian hopes that it will become bigger than the golden lotus root.
That evening, after Xu Qi'an disguised herself in Goulan, she rode her beloved little mare back to Xu Mansion.
During dinner, the aunt said: "I asked Lingyue to invite Miss Wang to come to my house the day after tomorrow. Men in the family must remember to avoid her. In addition, she must have the proper etiquette.
"As for you, Xu Lingyin, you are the most rude."
Xu Lingyin, who was not eating elegantly at all, raised her head and said doubtfully: "The master and sister Miaozhen came to the house as guests. I am the same way. Why didn't mother say that I was rude?"
"Can it be the same? She is your second brother's unmarried daughter-in-law." said the aunt.
"What is a daughter-in-law?" Xu Lingyin asked.
The second uncle said: "Your mother is my father's wife, do you understand?"
Xu Lingyin was shocked and said: "She wants to be my mother?"
Everyone bowed their heads to eat and gave up the idea of explaining the noun "daughter-in-law" to Xiao Douding. In fact, the explanation is really complicated. Although daughter-in-law is a noun, when a man marries a wife, he desires to turn it into a verb.
The meaning inside is too profound for a six-year-old child to understand.
"Anyway, as long as you be good and don't cause trouble, mother will take you to Fumanlou to eat monkey brains." Auntie said.
Monkey brain is Fumanlou’s signature dish.
"I want to eat monkey seeds." Xu Lingyin's attention was indeed diverted.
"Brain."
"Naoko."
"..."
Auntie kept a straight face and stopped talking.
"Ahem!" Xu Erlang coughed, breaking the tense atmosphere, and looked at Xu Qian: "Brother, I have memorized another part recently. You can come to my study after dinner."
Xu Qian felt happy and nodded slowly: "Okay."
I hope there will be some clues in the late emperor's daily life records, otherwise, I really don't know how to continue the investigation, maybe I can only give up...
To be continued...
