Qin Shaobai originally thought that Zhao Bai knew some divination skills, but who knew that he used his eyes to signal Qin Shaobai to stand in front of the incense table.
Although there are many modern movies with this kind of scene, Qin Shaobai fast forwarded as soon as he saw it, so he never knew what it looked like specifically.
He stood in front of the incense table and looked at the items Wei Daming bought. He really didn't know what to do.
"Second senior brother, if not, I will do it."
As soon as Lian Le opened his mouth, Qin Shaobai immediately thought of the hexagram she had divined before. He was secretly happy and quickly gave up his position to Lian Le.
Unexpectedly, Lian Le did it well.
After the ceremony ended, Lian Le's brows furrowed.
"How about it?"
Wei Daming was the first to come up and ask.
"Master Wei, I will discuss this matter with my two senior brothers. It is getting late, so Master Wei should return to the palace first."
Wei Daming wanted to say something more, but Zhao Bai frowned: "Master Wei, this secret matter is not as simple as you think."
Wei Daming had no choice but to say goodbye and leave.
"Miss Lian Le, this ritual of yours is really interesting. You should have deceived Wei Daming."
Zhao Bai's face was filled with joy.
But soon, the joy on Zhao Bai's face slowly began to change, and finally turned into a look of shock.
"Miss Lian Le, you, you can't really know how to look at this sky, right?"
Lian Le nodded politely.
"The person who taught me martial arts was a Taoist priest, so he also taught me some things like astronomy and divination."
"Le'er, what did you see?"
"General Zhao, brother, I just saw that the crape myrtle star that represents the emperor is extremely dim. This means that there is going to be a big change in the palace in Zhongdu."
"You mean, Wanyan Yongji's star is no longer saved?"
Lian Le glanced at Zhao Bai: "General Zhao, that's basically what he said. However, the crape myrtle star only dimmed and did not turn black, so there is still a possibility that Wanyan Yongji's fate will change."
Lian Le said, pointing to the sky with his hand: "Look at the stars surrounding Ziwei Star, they are getting farther and farther away from Ziwei Star. Losing their protection is the fundamental reason why Ziwei Star has lost its vitality.
"
"In other words, if Wanyan Yongji can find a few people who follow him wholeheartedly, maybe Wanyan Yongji can turn his cards over?"
Lian Le nodded.
"However, the current situation proves that this Ziwei star has been abandoned by everyone, and it is impossible for anyone to be willing to give a ray of light to it."
Zhao and Qin looked at each other.
Lian Le seemed to suddenly understand something and asked in surprise: "You guys don't want to help Wanyan Yongji, do you?"
"It can't be said that we are helping Wanyan Yongji. What we want to help more is the people of Zhongdu."
"Helping people? How to help?"
"We want Wanyan Yongji to see the coming war and persuade him to strengthen the city. While actively training the imperial city guards, we also want every common person to have simple self-protection techniques to protect him when war comes.
Own."
"So, we need a matching hexagram."
As the two men spoke, they both looked at Lian Le with longing eyes.
"This is simple."
Lian Le took out the pen and ink from the house and drew a star diagram on the paper.
"Look, this big star is the Ziwei star that represents Wanyan Yongji. The four middle stars represent his ministers. The power of these ministers is getting weaker and weaker, but there are tens of thousands of people surrounding these five stars.
The little stars of design, these little stars are shining brightly.”
"Yes, this is what we saw when we observed the sky at night today. Lian Le, your explanation is so reasonable."
The three of them were looking at the picture of that day, when a loud shout came from outside the courtyard: "Concubine Lan is here."
Zhao and Qin were shocked and had no choice but to go out to greet them.
"Two benefactors."
Concubine Lan showered them with gifts and had more than a dozen food boxes given to them.
"Here are all the delicacies that I carefully prepared. I originally wanted to enjoy them with my two benefactors tonight. Who knew that the two benefactors would work so hard for the emperor? Lan'er specially brought all these delicacies with a food box."
With that said, Concubine Lan waved back again.
Immediately, more than a dozen servants and servants came forward respectfully.
"These people are all carefully selected by me. They are serious in their work and loyal to their master. Let them stay in this other courtyard to serve the two benefactors."
Qin Shaobai couldn't see anything strange about these people, but Zhao Bai and Lian Le could see it at a glance.
These people, with their steady steps and well-muscled arms, look like practitioners.
Concubine Lan's intention to let them serve as servants in another courtyard is evident.
Zhao and Qin were trying to find a reason to refuse.
But Concubine Lan had already stood up: "It's getting late, and it's not convenient for Lan'er to stay here any longer, so I'll leave first."
Zhao and Qin could only send Concubine Lan off politely.
Concubine Lan took a few steps forward, then suddenly stopped and shouted softly: "Master Wei, come here."
Wei Daming had already walked out of the yard, but when he heard Concubine Lan's call, he immediately ran over.
Unexpectedly, Concubine Lan reached out and slapped him, which not only made Wei Daming stagger a few steps, but also made everyone in the room stay there.
"Master Wei, the Emperor has given you countless orders to protect your two benefactors, but you actually left your post without permission. What crime should you do?"
Wei Daming felt so wronged, but no matter how wronged he was, he did not dare to say anything. He could only lower his head and say nothing.
"Two benefactors, Concubine Lan knows that you have the ability to protect yourself. However, there are often some turbulent elements in Zhongdu nowadays to cause trouble. It is better for Master Wei to follow the two benefactors closely."
How could Zhao and Qin not understand what Concubine Lan meant?
This is surveillance in the name of protection.
However, Concubine Lan's words have reached this point. If you refuse again, you will lose three hundred taels of silver here.
Zhao Bai immediately saluted Concubine Lan and said: "The three of us will keep in mind the care that the emperor and the princess have shown to our three brothers and sisters. Until tomorrow, the three of us brothers and sisters will go to the palace to thank the emperor."
Concubine Lan smiled slightly and meandered away, dragging her long skirt.
"You three, it's getting late, please rest in peace. Tomorrow Wei Daming will take you three to meet the emperor. The emperor is waiting for your foresight and foresight."
Wei Daming said, and called the dozen slaves over again.
"We are all three masters now, so the safety of the master is our biggest responsibility. From now on, we will be divided into three groups to guard this courtyard and prevent others from entering or exiting easily."
The dozen slaves immediately divided into three teams, two of which ran to their rooms, while the other team stood quietly at the courtyard gate.
Zhao Bai, Qin Shaobai and Lian Le looked at me and I looked at you, but all they could do was shrug.
