The news of the lunar eclipse was announced, which made the people in Beijing very uneasy.

"It was the same thing last time. There was a solar eclipse, but the result was that the day they mentioned didn't come. Instead, another day suddenly came. It was scary."

"But after all, there is a solar eclipse, it's just that the time is wrong, so just be prepared. You'll be surprised no matter what date it comes."

Because of the suspicion of Si Tiantai, the panic was diluted.

Despite their reluctance, the fifteenth day of the twelfth lunar month arrived as scheduled. When the moon began to slowly fade in the sky, even though they had been mentally prepared, everyone on the rooftop still let out a cry of surprise.

At the same time, gongs and drums sounded all over the city.

Before kneeling down to worship, the emperor looked at the time.

The four moments of ugliness are so accurate!

Guo Yuan was also the one who made this move. He must have almost lost his composure and shed tears due to the emperor's calmness.

Father, my son finally lives up to your reputation!

The title of son, astronomer, is no longer a joke!

Guo Yuan followed and bowed down.

The sound of gongs and drums filling the streets was deafening, and Cheng Jiao's home was no exception.

"Madam, isn't this scary?" Banqin couldn't help but asked in a low voice.

"It's not scary, but very amiable." Cheng Jiaoniang said.

After the ceremony, I stood on the porch with my hands folded, looking at the moon that was gradually losing weight in the sky.

"Are you approachable?" Banqin asked.

"This is God telling people something, both good and bad, reminding them. Isn't this inappropriate?" Cheng Jiaoniang said.

Banqin seemed to understand but not quite.

"Heaven does not deceive people and is not scary." Cheng Jiaoniang said.

"Talents bully others, it's terrible." Banqin said, looking at Cheng Jiaoniang happily.

Cheng Jiaoniang smiled slightly at her.

"It's not terrible, it's the way of heaven," she said.

Banqin said oh, and although she still didn't understand, she nodded happily, stood next to Cheng Jiaoniang, and continued to look at the moon in the night sky.

With the appearance of Dongfang Shining, the fear of celestial signs gradually dissipated. He successfully defeated the Tengu, saved the moon, silenced the gongs and drums, and filled the city with joy.

But the impact of the signs has just begun.

"The celestial phenomenon is responsible for the failure of the government. Please give me an edict to appease the people."

"If the government is immoral, it does not mean that the monarch is immoral. If the ministers do not practice it, it is also immoral."

"If the ministers do not cultivate themselves, doesn't it mean that the monarch is not careful when issuing orders?"

This kind of quarrel in the court has been going on for a long time. Not to mention that the eldest prince standing in the palace couldn't help but move his feet to relieve his boredom. Even the emperor on the throne could not hide his impatience.

Let's see, in short, everyone only blames each other. No one wants to think that he is guilty. If something goes wrong, he just wants his emperor to be punished and confess!

"In the eighth month of the seventh year of Emperor Wen of Wei, there was an eclipse of the sun. In February of the eighth year, there was an eclipse of the sun again. All the big stars were visible. Looking at the astronomical records during the reign of Emperor Wen of Wei, we found that there were eclipses of the sun eighteen times.

Emperor Wen ruled the world brightly and reigned for thirty years..."

"That was Emperor Wen's virtuous conduct in his administration. When the star fell from the sky in Dongjun, the First Emperor killed the people who were standing by the stone and sold the stone, and then he died. However, Duke Jing was worried and deceived his heart, and he did not move. The sky was high and he listened to the humble.

Three degrees.”

"After this year's solar eclipse, there was a great military victory in the northwest, and His Majesty's dragon body is in good health. Is this punishment from heaven?"

The emperor loved hearing this and couldn't help but see Gao Lingbo smile.

Let’s just say, it’s not that he is immoral at all!

"Your Majesty, if there is a sudden change in the sky and the people are panicking, we still need to comfort them." Gao Lingbo bowed again and said, "Prime ministers have always blamed themselves and issued edicts to blame others."

As soon as this statement came out, the expressions of several courtiers changed.

"It is the prime minister's job to share your Majesty's worries about state affairs and comfort the people at that time." Gao Lingbo continued, turning towards Chen Shao, "Chen Xianggong will not refuse, right?"

Issue an imperial edict to commit a crime? How could Chen Shao be such a person! Moreover, once a person commits a crime and an edict is issued, the people will recognize it. Who would be willing to bear this infamy for no reason?

According to Chen Shao's habits, he would definitely insist on asking the emperor to issue an edict for his sins, but would never admit his mistakes.

It has been shown that the emperor's affairs in the country and his family are going well, and he is very happy. It can be seen that God is not punishing the emperor. Chen Shao, why do you still force the emperor?

If you admit it with all your heart, that's even better. There will always be opportunities to use it in the future. What qualifications do you, a minister who has no moral integrity, have to be in a high position?

Gao Lingbo's smiling eyes flashed with a cold light.

Celestial phenomena are very scary, but these scares are usually used to scare others, just like the prime minister Zhai Fangjin who was killed by Emperor Cheng of the Han Dynasty.

Everything is just an opportunity.

Mr. Chen, I'm sorry, but now I have this opportunity.

"I can't!"

As expected, Chen Shao's sonorous and powerful voice sounded in the hall.

"I am not responsible, and apologizing for my sins is not enough to comfort the world. This is a sign of misconduct in your Majesty's government."

The emperor's face looked a little ugly. Gao Lingbo was angry on his face, but he was getting happier in his heart.

"Report."

At this moment, the Imperial City Secretary Wan Liufang shouted and kowtowed outside the palace gate.

"Your Majesty, the people on Jingnan Road are in chaos."

As soon as these words came out, the whole hall was shocked, and the emperor stood up from his throne.

"Wan Liufang, what did you say?" he shouted in disbelief.

Wan Liufang crawled in, holding a document in his hand high.

"Your Majesty, Jingnan Maoping Liu Xiaotong rebelled."

opposite....

Gao Lingbo's face suddenly turned pale.

"This summer, there was a drought in Maoping, which made it difficult for the people to make a living. In winter, there was heavy snow for seven days, causing countless deaths and injuries, and mourning all over the place."

As he read the memorial, the emperor's hands kept shaking, and his expression changed from shock to anger.

"Why don't I know these things?"

The emperor shouted loudly and smashed the memorial in his hand.

"Your Majesty, we just found out that the disaster relief package submitted by Maoping half a month ago was blocked and suppressed." An official stood up and said.

"Who dares?" the emperor shouted.

"Zhengshitang Gao Lingbo." the official said loudly.

Gao Lingbo, who was standing aside, had no smile on his face.

How could this happen? What's going on?

He did know about the Maoping Snow Disaster, but seeing that His Majesty had been having many happy events recently, and the New Year was about to come, he wanted to push it forward. Besides, the disaster was not that serious in the memorial he saw, and there would be no rebellion.

If it was really that serious, Gao Lingbo was not a fool to suppress it!

No, no, there must be something wrong.

It’s a matter of the documents handed to him!

That document is incomplete!

A truly detailed disaster report must be in the hands of Chen Shao and others!

They did it on purpose!

Gao Lingbo was enlightened for a moment and looked up at Chen Shao, who was also looking at him.

The always upright Mr. Chen seemed to have a sneer flashing in his eyes.

No wonder Chen Shao insists on asking Your Majesty to issue an edict this time because of the celestial phenomenon. He is not asking Your Majesty to issue an edict. He clearly has the same thoughts as himself, and wants to use this celestial phenomenon to eliminate dissidents!

Who else?

Gao Lingbo's eyes fell on Wan Liufang who had retreated outside the door.

How could Wan Liufang, a eunuch's chamberlain, turn to report such an urgent report? Dare to intercept and intervene in court affairs to report, this is a taboo for eunuchs and chamberlains!

If Wan Liufang is not crazy, there is enough temptation for him to do this!

Gao Lingbo gritted his teeth.

Chen Shao!

You, an honorable man, actually pull such a clandestine trick!
