Even in September, the wind on the top of Mount Tai is already bitingly cold.
Yunchu put the boiled egg that he had just rubbed his eyes into his mouth and ate it slowly.
The pain under Di Renjie's crotch is much better now. Apart from having to walk with his legs crossed, it doesn't hinder anything anymore.
The black bruise at the corner of Gentle's mouth has not gone away, and he has long since eaten the egg used to remove blood stasis. Now, he is just worried about his nose. Although it is wrapped, it still hurts.
From the gentle blue corners of his mouth, Yun Chu knew that his eyes must also be black and blue. Although Su Dingfang was old, this guy's fists were still very powerful.
"At dawn, the three of us are about to be knighted and stand in the front row. We don't look so majestic. I always feel that Li Ji did it on purpose."
Di Renjie sat down with gentleness and said: "It was intentional. This time they were demoted. The three of us, one county prince and two county marquis, are the few people who have been promoted to high titles. Naturally, they don't like us."
.”
Yun Chu said: "This is not a good phenomenon. Except for the three of us whose titles have been promoted, the rest are all people from the Queen's side, especially Wu Chengsi and Wu Sansi. These two people need our attention early."
"Where is Zhou Guogong He Lan Minzhi?" Di Renjie asked worriedly.
Wen Wen shook his head and said, "This person may not live long."
"Why? He is now on good terms with King Yong Li Xian. Originally, Duke Zhou had been expelled, but this time he was miraculously restored to his title. Logically speaking, this is the time when honor and favor are at their peak, but you say that he will not live long. Could it be that you
Want to take action?"
Wen Wen said: "To let two people with the Wu surname become marquises at one time without any merit will inevitably lead to verbal and written criticism. He Lan Minzhi should be the stone that the Queen used to block Youyou's mouth."
At this point, Wen Wen suddenly turned to look at Yun Chu and said, "We brothers, Wu Chengsi and Wu Sansi, are standing in front of us. Could it be that there are two chickens squatting next to a phoenix?"
Yunchu said naturally: "It's a very appropriate metaphor."
He gently touched Wu Qing's chin and said, "Tell me, in order to please the Queen, did the Young Master deliberately ruin the appearance of our three brothers so that we all look like chickens when standing next to the Wu brothers?"
"Your Majesty is not that mean."
"Pull him down, I don't trust anyone except you and Huaiying now."
Yun Chu pulled the blanket up to his body and said, "There is still time, let's sleep for a while."
The top of Mount Tai is not a good place to sleep, but for those who climb up Mount Tai with both feet and hands, sleeping on the top of Mount Tai can be a very good place to sleep.
Just when it was getting dark, it started to rain.
Lu Dunxin, the Minister of Rites, stood in the rain and looked at the sky sadly. At this moment, he wanted to drag out all the idiots in Sitian Prison and bury them alive, because they swore that the red sun would be visible on September 2nd.
Now, the rain is pouring down, and in another hour and a half, it will be the time for the emperor to formally offer sacrifices to the sky. With such heavy rain, how can you ask the emperor to recite the astronomical table of sacrifices, how to offer sacrifices, and how to let the gods enjoy the feast?
Just when Lu Dunxin was about to enter the palace to plead guilty, a eunuch came to him and whispered a few words in his ear. Lu Dunxin came to Yun Chu and others who had already put on their court uniforms, and said to Yun Chu: "Let's go."
Well, His Majesty wants us to go in together."
Yun Chu pointed at his black eyes and said, "It's an eyesore."
Lu Dunxin pointed to his wet clothes and said, "Much better than me."
Yun Chu said: "It will rain or my mother will get married. These are all things that cannot be done by human beings."
Lu Dunxin said: "As long as it doesn't rain today, if my mother wants to get married, I can provide a dowry."
"Hey, you are quite generous."
"There is nothing we can do."
While the two were talking, they walked into the Taishan Palace. The palace was not big, with only two palaces and three rows of wing rooms. The eaves were also filled with eunuchs and maidens. Judging from the clothes of some of the palace people, the level of the palace was very high.
The position is not low.
When Yunchu saw Yun Luan lying on the window of a wing and peeking at him, he smiled at the child. Then Yun Luan immediately started crying and told the people in the room that Aye had turned into a one-eyed chipmunk.
As a result, more heads appeared on the windows.
Yun Chu glanced at Yu Xiurong calmly, and Yu Xiurong closed the window.
When I saw Li Zhi, he was with Hua Xiong, and an official from Si Tianjian was kneeling on the ground.
"You said this rain can only fall for an hour?"
The Si Tianjian official gritted his teeth and said as if he had made up his mind: "Yes."
Li Zhi said indifferently: "In that case, I will wait for an hour."
Si Tianjian's officials walked backwards out of the hall, and Li Zhi asked Lu Dunxin: "What do you think?"
The wet Lu Dunxin said feebly: "We have to wait."
Li Zhi looked at Yun Chu again and said, "What do you think?"
Yun Chu spread his hands and said: "The water vapor rises and turns into clouds, and then moves with the wind and has no fixed place. When and where it will rain, it is difficult for manpower to do it."
Li Zhi nodded and said: "The people from Si Tianjian said that the rain will stop after only one hour."
Yun Chu said: "I made a big mistake. I can only gamble my life. I still have 50% chance of survival. If I admit my mistake, I will die."
Li Zhi looked at Lu Dunxin and said, "That's how it should be. Now, it depends on whether this person's life is tough or not."
Yun Chu said: "It's really killing."
Li Zhidao said: "It is his duty to feed the emperor and share his worries. It is also my duty to reward him if he does well and punish him if he does not do well."
Yun Chu said: "What your Majesty said is very true. If Your Majesty didn't always play with the black eye of the giant bear, I think what you said would be more reasonable."
Li Zhi laughed loudly, took his hand away from the giant bear's face, pointed at Yun Chu's blue eye socket and said, "Su Dingfang's punch is still quite powerful."
Yun Chu grinned and said, "If they accidentally aroused the ferocity of me, Your Majesty may have to prepare a few funerals today besides offering sacrifices to heaven."
Li Zhidao: "They came here because of your ruthlessness and righteousness. Li Siwen was given to you to kill, but you used it as a meteor hammer and let him go. You still show friendship here, no?"
Well, even if it is for me to see, at least it must be true."
Yun Chu shook his head and said: "Who can be ruthless? At least I can't do it. Maybe when I get as old as the heroic father-in-law, my heart will harden."
Li Zhi glanced at Lu Dunxin, who then retreated. Li Zhi stood up and came to Yun Chu's side and said, "When are you going to harden your heart?"
Yun Chu shook his head and said: "If I don't prepare to wait until my heart hardens, I will become a wealthy individual in the Tang Dynasty. It's best to leave a soft heart to the Tang Dynasty and the people, and also a soft heart to my wife and children."
Stay soft, and you will be a happy person until your death."
Li Zhi said: "I am envious after hearing this."
Yun Chu said: "Your Majesty's achievements have reached their peak, why should you envy others?"
Li Zhi said: "How about going to heaven?"
Yun Chu said: "When I was the head of Guangmingli, I discovered that as long as my hot air balloon is big enough, it can carry people to high altitudes. If your majesty..."
"Shut up, you know what I'm talking about."
"I can do nothing."
"What if there are fairy mountains overseas?"
"Your Majesty just sends people to look for it."
"Hey, you don't object?"
"It's best for my helpers to bring back the long-awaited corn, potatoes, and sweet potatoes. Your Majesty will still be wise."
"Get out-"
When Yunchu left the palace, it was raining heavily. Lu Dunxin stood in the rain like a drowned rat. An official of the Tianjian also stood in the rain, facing the sky and murmuring to himself.
Li Zhi grabbed the giant bear's head and gently hit the giant bear's eye socket with his fist over and over again.
Wu Chengsi and Wu Sansi stood under the eaves and pointed, seemingly very happy. Seeing Yun Chu's green eyes, his smile became even stronger.
Yun Chu passed by and punched twice. Four punches were thrown out in an instant. The force was strong and it was gone as soon as it touched. The key point was to destroy the capillaries around the Wu brothers' eye sockets and not hurt anyone.
By the time the Wu brothers screamed, Yun Chu had already walked out of the palace.
He was very restrained in his actions, ensuring that after an hour, the four eye sockets of the Wu brothers would be darker than the eye sockets of the giant bear.
By then, the five newly promoted important nobles of the Tang Dynasty will definitely leave a deep impression on everyone.
After drinking tea in the waterproof tent for a while, Yunchu suddenly heard a horrifying scream, and then the sound went from near to far and then became silent again.
"Who jumped off the cliff?"
"It should be an official from the Si Tianjian."
"Why jump off the cliff?"
"Just now he said that the heavy rain will stop within an hour."
Wen Wen stretched her neck to look outside, and came back with her head wet: "It's raining hard, but he still jumped early."
Di Renjie added some water to the kettle and said, "It's amazing that I can persist until now. It's scary to be alive."
Wen Wen asked again: "What if the rain doesn't stop and we miss the good time?"
Di Renjie said: "The time for offering sacrifices to the sky was set by Si Tianjian, who also said that today we will see a red sunrise. Since it rained, the person who chose the day jumped off the cliff again. The day chosen before must not be a good day.
It’s your choice.”
Wen Wenwen burst into laughter, and immediately waved her hands in defense and said: "The nobles of the Tang Dynasty have finally tasted what it means to be miserable and miserable."
Aunt Chun's pair of red embroidered shoes appeared in front of the three of them. Yun Chu looked up at Aunt Chun who was holding an umbrella and said, "The Queen summoned me?"
Aunt Chun said: "The Queen is asking a question."
Yun Chu, Wen Wen, and Di Renjie had no choice but to stand up.
Aunt Chun imitated Wu Mei's voice and said sternly: "Yunchu, what do you want?"
Yun Chu smiled and said: "As far as the queen is concerned, the five people who want to be awarded the honor are as neatly organized."
Aunt Chun asked again: "I will never break up with you."
Yun Chu said: "Next time they laugh at me and beat me up."
Aunt Chun's face quickly changed to her own, and she said to Yun Chu: "You beat the Wu brothers so badly, this time the eyes were so swollen that there was only a slit left."
Yun Chu said coldly: "Such a master is worthy of standing shoulder to shoulder with us."
Aunt Chun said: "The queen is actually not angry. She just couldn't stand the Wu brothers' pleading, so she asked me to come over and lecture her on her behalf. Don't follow these angry words."
Wen Wen looked at Aunt Chun and then at Yun Chu, and said to Di Renjie: "The two of them are going to have a tryst. We brothers will help them make room and get rid of the trouble."
