"Isn't it because of responsibility that you say this? Don't coax me anymore. I've always known it in my heart. You only have Chen Ling in your heart, but I may occupy a small position in your heart.
"Huang Fengmo said slowly.
"Actually, husband, you can pretend to be confused." Yan Ruozhen didn't want to explain anymore, after all, he got everything right.
"You still want me to pretend to be stupid! I'm not stupid, you. You'd better be responsible for the loving words you just said." Huang Fengmo said with a chuckle.
"I'm already in charge." Yan Ruocheng also laughed.
The two finally reconciled.
In the morning, while going to court, several generals came to report the battle situation to Huang Chenling.
"Your Majesty, all enemy soldiers have retreated. Several ancient towers in the city have been destroyed, and there are a few civilian casualties." General Yan Rongyan said.
"Send the order, distribute 80,000 gold, treat and comfort the injured people, so that they don't have to panic. The fifth emperor uncle will be responsible for the damage of the houses." Huang Chenling said with the order.
Huang Sijing, the uncle of the Fifth Emperor, was shocked. He usually had no duties to deal with, but now he was involved in big things.
"Uncle Five Emperors, do you have any questions?" Huang Chenling asked with concern when she saw that his face was turning green.
"No, no problem. I accept the order." The Fifth Emperor's Uncle nodded and said.
After the morning court, Huang Sijing hurried to the imperial study room.
"Uncle Five Emperors, you ran faster than I thought." Huang Chenling walked in slowly.
"Your Majesty, please arrange for other officials to go with me. I'm afraid I can't handle it on my own." Huang Sijing requested.
"You can handle it. You have read so many books and have a wide range of knowledge. Uncle Five Emperors, please help me. The other uncles are dealing with the damage to their own cities. Their respective officials are dealing with daily affairs. General
We are even less available. Helping people repair their houses requires a person who is not greedy and is serious and responsible. I think you, Uncle Wuhuang, are the most suitable. Just go ahead and do it." Huang Chenling patted him.
shoulder, said.
"Okay then. I will try my best to complete it and live up to His Majesty's expectations." Huang Sijing said helplessly.
"By the way, Fifth Emperor Uncle, when you leave the palace, you can help me and see how my brother and the others are doing. It's not convenient for me to send people out." In fact, Huang Chenling's main reason was that it was not convenient to send people out, so she just used one reason.
He asked Huang Sijing to go out and investigate, killing two birds with one stone.
"Okay." Huang Sijing nodded and went out.
"Your Majesty, the Supreme Emperor is back. He is waiting at Wanyang Palace." The inner guard came to announce.
"Wanyang Palace? Okay, I'll go there right away." Huang Chenling said.
Wanyang Hall is the ancestor worship hall, used to display the spiritual tablets of ancestors of past generations.
Huang Shenhuang picked up three sticks of incense, kowtowed three times to the ancestor emperors of all generations, and inserted them into the incense burner.
"I am ashamed that I failed to protect my father's favorite towers and let them all be destroyed."
"Maybe if you don't tell, your father won't know." Silver Shadow interrupted his silence as soon as he spoke from the side.
"Yin'er, don't be ridiculous. Those towers are hundreds of years old and are my father's most cherished things. Unexpectedly, Tian Chang's purpose is to destroy them." Huang Shenhuang said.
"I think those towers are cherished by your father because of his superstition. Even if they are destroyed and not built, the feng shui will be bad." As soon as Yinying finished speaking, aftershocks appeared on the ground, and the spiritual tablets in front of him were knocked down one by one.
She came down. It was as if the ancestors had heard her bold words and were so angry that she even dropped the spiritual tablets as a warning.
"Look!" Huang Shenhuang pointed at the spiritual tablets on the ground and said.
"What are you looking at? It's an aftershock. There was an earthquake just now." Silver Shadow argued.
"My father said before that those towers are closely related to the feng shui of the entire imperial city. They are equivalent to a dragon vein. If the dragon vein is destroyed, the imperial city will also face destruction. The aftershock just now is a precursor." Huang Shenhuang frowned,
said.
"Your dragon vein is here. He is still alive and well, why should he be destroyed?" Yin Ying pointed boringly at Huang Chenling who just came in and said.
"Father, Concubine Yin, what are you arguing about? I heard it at the door." Huang Chenling asked.
"Ask your father. When he came back and saw the destruction of the towers, his eyebrows turned into knots." Silver Shadow said helplessly.
"Father?" Huang Chenling walked up to Huang Shenhuang.
"Follow me." Huang Shenhuang sighed and said, asking Huang Chenling to follow him.
Yin Ying did not follow, and she watched the spiritual tablets fall to the ground. She stayed and was responsible for placing them in their place one by one.
Huang Shenhuang took Huang Chenling to an empty room in the palace. Pressing the button in the room, the middle wall opened.
Huang Chenling didn't know there was a secret room here.
"Father, was this secret room left by our ancestors?" he asked.
"Yes. I didn't tell you. There are some things you should know."
Huang Shenhuang walked in slowly, and Huang Chenling followed.
The walls inside are made of rare fluorescent stone, which can illuminate everything even in the dark. There is a huge man-made landscape map in the middle. The scenery on the map is so lifelike that when people look at it from the outside, they feel like they are ruling the world.
"Can you still see that this map is the territory we are guarding?" Huang Shenhuang said.
"It can be seen that the land occupied by our ancestors for hundreds of years has been accurately carved here." Huang Chenling watched carefully and said.
"Now it's your turn to adjust it. The collapse of several century-old towers in the city means that the fate of the land will also change." Huang Shenhuang reached out and pushed down the iconic towers in the mini city on the map.
Huang Chenling took a closer look and saw that the pattern formed by these iconic towers was a proud dragon.
"Father, why are these towers so positioned that they look like a dragon?"
"To be precise, it is a dragon vein. For thousands of years, our ancestors have cleverly hidden it in this land. It controls the Feng Shui destiny of the entire land. Once it is destroyed, the fate of the land will change.
"Huang Shenhuang explained.
"Father, is it too superstitious to say this? Although I am surprised that our ancestors can make a dragon here, but I think it is a bit of a fantasy to rely on these towers to change the fate of the land." Huang
Chen Ling said in disbelief.
"I didn't believe it before. Ever since I demolished one of the towers in Fengli City, a big earthquake occurred soon after. Fengli City was almost destroyed by the earthquake that year. Later, I built the tower back and it never happened again.
Earthquake. Later I thought it was just a coincidence, so I rebuilt the tower on the Qianling City side. Then Qianling City and nearby villages suffered huge floods. Water poured down from the mountains, twice.
I have to believe in the huge natural disaster." Huang Shenhuang said helplessly.
"Then if all the towers are destroyed this time, wouldn't it mean that an unimaginable natural disaster will happen?" Huang Chenling was a little scared after thinking about it.
"Whether it will come true or not, the most important thing now is to speed up the construction of those towers again. There has been an aftershock just now, and I am afraid that there will be more precursors in the future." Huang Shenhuang suggested.
"Okay, Father, I will speed up the manpower to build it for peace of mind." Huang Chenling also agreed with his suggestion.
As soon as Huang Chenling finished speaking, she frowned again and said, "Father, in fact, there is not much gold left in our treasury. The eldest uncle robbed most of it."
Huang Shenhuang analyzed it and said: "Perhaps the first omen came true, which is poverty, and the mountains and rivers are exhausted."
"Besides, I'm afraid I won't be able to keep up with the progress, and I don't know if the Great Emperor will attack again." The more Huang Chenling said, the more she frowned.
"Don't worry, he won't attack for the time being. Presumably he doesn't have much gold to buy off those Western soldiers. Otherwise, he won't withdraw his troops all at once." Huang Shenhuang said analytically.
"Maybe we can catch up." Huang Chenling looked at the map and said with a sigh.
The second emperor's uncle, Huang Guiyuan, and the others were riding in a carriage, rushing back to Huangcheng.
"Something's wrong. There seemed to be an aftershock just now." Huang Guiyuan asked.
"It doesn't seem like it, but there are indeed aftershocks." Huan said.
Yun Xi sat in the middle and glanced at them from side to side. The atmosphere in the carriage was quite calm, and it was all because Huang Guiyuan invited them to sit in together.
After she confessed to them, the two of them said nothing when they met. It was as if nothing had happened.
Instead, she felt depressed alone.
"Your Majesty, you've been sitting on your waist for so long, are you okay?" She asked Huang Guiyuan first.
"It's okay. I applied medicine and it's okay." Huang Guiyuan said simply. In fact, his waist was hurting, so he said this in order to hide it.
"Really?" Yun Xi is not blind, his eyes are very powerful. He guessed it when he saw him sitting unnaturally, so he just asked deliberately.
She wanted to sit next to Huang Guiyuan and reach out to rub his stiff waist.
She had just stood up, and before she had even taken a step forward, Huan deliberately coughed several times: "Cough cough cough!" It was obviously a sign that he didn't like her approaching Huang Guiyuan like this.
She took out the water bag, handed it to Huan, and said, "Drink some water. Is the dry cough because you didn't sleep well last night?" She asked completely knowingly.
Huan took the water bag, drank a few sips, then handed it to her, and said deliberately: "You know what happened yesterday best, but you still ask me what I am doing. Aren't you embarrassed in front of the emperor? You also drink some water.
Yeah, my voice is a little hoarse."
Yun Xi narrowed his eyes, knowing what his intention was.
Thanks to him for inciting trouble first, Yun Xi sat directly next to Huang Guiyuan.
Huan stared at her, gritting his teeth and getting angry.
"Second Emperor, do you want to drink?" Yun Xi took a sip first and then asked.
"No, I'm not thirsty, you can drink." Huang Guiyuan said with a chuckle. The smile was obviously a bit stiff.
Yun Xi put the kettle away, then quietly reached for his back and slowly rubbed his back.
Huang Guiyuan did not move, and cooperated with her as if nothing had happened. He tried his best not to let Huan discover their actions.
