Guan Dashi's furious voice resounded in the bedroom: "Shibo, this life was saved by your father at the risk of his own life! If you want to kill me, just do it! How can you so maliciously speculate on the relationship between me and your father and mother?"
of friendship!
When your father died, he didn't even know that your mother was pregnant with you! Your mother knew that your father died in the war, so she wanted to commit suicide that day! If Dr. Zhang Han hadn't found out the happy pulse later, how could your mother be willing to live alone?
!”
Yang Chaoxi's ears were buzzing, and his mind was confused.
At this moment, I felt vaguely that I really seemed to have believed one side of the story and had wronged Guan Dashi. But I recalled the old story that he had just told with tears and beat his chest, and thought about how his father died so easily, and even his wife
He had no time to take care of his son. Suddenly, waves of sorrow surged in his heart. He and his mother, an orphan and a widowed mother, had been dependent on each other for many years and suffered all kinds of suffering. It turned out that the source of the matter was just that his father wanted to give Guan Dashi a way to survive.
…
Yang Zhaoxi stood blankly for a long time, then suddenly his right hand loosened, and the Yingying Sword fell from Guan Dashi's shoulder. With a soft "chi" sound, half of it was buried in the compacted mud.
Tan Qing and Xiao Man were both stunned, but they saw him smiling miserably: "Okay! Okay! Okay! Guan Shibo, it's my nephew who has made the mistake of listening to the wind and rain. From today on, you will live in harmony and live your lives."
Have a happy birthday! My father Yang Sanlang... died well and deservedly! The only reason is that he was not good at martial arts, but he valued justice over life... Hahaha! Hahaha..."
A string of laughter comparable to the cry of a black owl quickly floated out of the bedroom, and soon began to rumble in the small courtyard. Then there was a loud sound of the door bolt breaking, and the laughter quickly escaped and gradually faded away.
Guan Dashi looked at the Chengying Sword that was trembling on the ground, with a dejected face and tears streaming down his cheeks.
Tan Qing and Xiao Man looked at each other and said in rare tacit agreement: "Chase!"
Dawn is about to dawn in the east, and the night is about to end.
Prince Li Shi suddenly sat up from the red sandalwood couch, his head covered with hot sweat and panting. Although there was still the smell of wine coming out of his mouth, the drunkenness from last night's banquet was gone at this time.
I just woke up from the hangover and felt that my throat was parched and unbearable. Several palace maids who heard the commotion had already been waiting outside the curtain. When they saw Prince Li Shi raising the curtain and coming out, they hurriedly served the orange peel hangover soup that had been cooked in advance.
After he drank hastily, two more palace maids came forward to help him change his clothes.
There are few tall trees outside the palace, only two symmetrical small gardens planted with many rare flowers and trees.
Prince Li Shi went straight out of the palace without combing or washing. He found a place with a wide view in the palace courtyard and stood facing the east. At this time, the accompanying eunuch came up quickly and took the round seat under his arm.
After laying it out, they waited for Prince Li Shifu to sit down and practice Qigong.
As a prince, he was preoccupied with many things and had the vocation to create a royal bloodline, so he could not work hard on cultivating Taoism. Therefore, despite his diligent cultivation over the past few years, Prince Li Shi's Taoist skills could only build the foundation.
It's just the beginning, let alone the method of gathering Qi and subduing Qi. At this time, pretending to be pretentious and sitting down to perform Qigong is just to deceive the eunuchs, palace maids and other laymen around you.
Especially this morning, when he woke up, the dream from last night kept swirling in his mind. Although it was absurd and bizarre, it was so vivid that he couldn't even tell whether he was sober or in a dream——
I only remember that I was drunk and lying down, and unknowingly stepped on the clouds and fog, and walked to a rolling hill. The hills were not majestic and majestic. The tall ones were only ten feet tall, and the short ones were only seven or eight feet long.
They all look like two or three miles apart...the hills are crowded together and stretch to the sky.
However, there are only one kind of dwarf trees growing on these hills. The dwarf trees are no more than three feet tall. The trunks are gray and black, with patterns like turtle backs. The leaves are green in color and shaped like sparrow eggs. What is strange is that every dwarf tree
The top is covered with cones as red as red and as red as clouds.
Looking from a distance, green dots of red dots cover the hills, blue and white, covering the surrounding area. At the end are green waves, red foam and stars, a lush scene full of life!
Prince Li Shi thought about it, and he had pressed down the cloud and landed in front of a short tree. When he took a look, he couldn't help but feel happy: This densely packed cone, shaped like a chicken heart, with a rough skin and mottled tentacles, was actually the most beautiful cone of the Taizhen Concubine.
Love eating lychees!
When he was a child, he often came to the palace to say hello, and Concubine Taizhen would tease him with lychees, so he never forgot the sweet and soft lychees. Nowadays, everyone in the world said that Concubine Taizhen's beauty was a disaster for the country, but he didn't think so in his heart.
.On the contrary, because of this lychee, I have a different kind of nostalgia for the Taizhen Concubine who was hanged in Maweipo.
At this moment, I suddenly dreamed of falling into the lychee forest. How could I miss this blessing? I immediately moved my hands together to pluck down the brightly colored lychees, peeled off the shells, took out the flesh, and stuffed it into my mouth. I suddenly felt the sweet juice filling my cheeks.
Throat, so smooth!
While chewing big mouthfuls, thoughts welled up at the same time. Although his mouth was still vague, a few lines of poetry were already completed:
The round jade has just been peeled off, and the golden statue remembers the old goddess.
After the colorful clothes are whirling and dancing, I praise the red beads with my bare hands.
After I finished chanting, I felt that I was very happy, but I didn’t have the pen and paper to copy it down.
While I was in distress, I suddenly heard a burst of birdsong coming from far and near. After a few breaths, I saw several colorful birds landing steadily on the branch in front of me, their beaks opened, and they kept flying.
Crying: "Missing the past! Missing the past! Missing the past..."
This bird was about a foot long and had extraordinary plumage. Prince Li Shi had never seen this bird before, and he couldn't help but find it strange.
At this moment, a bird suddenly flew into his palm like a shooting star and lightning. Before he could dodge, it turned into a radiant chicken spur pen. Holding it in his hand, he felt very satisfied.
Prince Li Shi didn't have time to think too much. He immediately opened his robe, tore off a piece of white gauze singlet, spread it in his hand, and started writing. After a few breaths, the poem was completed, but he saw that the ink was divided into five colors, and the words were like dragons.
It was more ambitious than what I usually wrote. My heart immediately moved:
In the past, Jiang Yan dreamed of getting a five-color pen, and his literary talent flourished from then on; recently, when he was young, Li Taibai dreamed that his pen would produce flowers, and his poems became famous all over the world. Today, I, Li Shi, got this magic pen. Is it a good omen that "the pen determines the world"? Isn't it better than that?
So Laoshizi's "Rushui Sword" is much better?
In the midst of my reverie, I suddenly felt that the sky was dark and the earth was dark, the trees were swaying and the mountains were swaying, and the vast forest and hills in front of me instantly turned into a piece of scorched earth. The sky was filled with wolf smoke, and a bloody sun was half hanging in the sky, with a cruel and strange look, like the pupils of some kind of monster.
Prince Li Shi was horrified and at a loss when a gap several feet wide suddenly opened under his feet, and his body suddenly became empty and fell down...
The dream came to an abrupt end at this point.
Prince Li Shi was thinking about the dream, but he didn't know how to interpret it. So when he had breakfast, he was absent-minded and didn't want to eat.
Li Changyuan, who was sitting at the bottom, barely ate half of the Hu Pancake with some water, but looked at him several times calmly. After the breakfast was hastily finished, Prince Li Shicai finally couldn't hold back the doubts in his heart and asked:
"Master, last night I went to bed after drinking, and I suddenly had a strange dream. I wonder if you can explain it to me again?"
Li Changyuan looked indifferent, put away his fly whisk, raised his hands and saluted, "I don't know what your highness is dreaming about, but I would like to hear the details."
Prince Li Shi pondered for a moment, then sent the maids and guards away. Immediately, he told Li Changyuan what he saw in his dream in detail.
After hearing some bizarre dreams, Li Changyuan could only hear different things, but he was also unsure in his heart. To be honest, the explanation of dreams is a piece of cake. A master who is truly proficient in Yi Xiang would not bother to do it. Because the key points are only eight.
The words "observe words and colors, use the topic to express", and then mix it with a few esoteric Yili sentences, it is really "seven parts false and three parts real", which is inferior to divination and fortune-telling, and it is really difficult to reach the level of elegance.
However, the prince Li Shi has been obsessed with this way recently. In the final analysis, it is because of the overt and covert fighting inside and outside the court, border dangers, and the complicated affairs of the feudal town, which make him constantly worried and restless.
The last time "Taizhen entrusts a dream", it can be determined that the fox demon Liu Xiaomu did it deliberately. He can still start from "The Master" and "Ten Thoughts", combined with the current situation in the court, and mix in some "private things" about the way of monarchs and ministers.
”.
But this time, His Highness the Crown Prince's dream happened randomly, with no trace to be traced. And it had nothing to do with matters in the court, so he felt a little embarrassed and had no choice but to plead guilty:
"The art of dream interpretation is actually similar to the science of prophecy and divination. I only scratch the surface of what I know, and I am really unworthy of Your Highness's high expectations. However, my Taoist brother Gongsun Zhenren has been studying this art for several years.
, I can help solve the mystery for Your Highness!"
After hearing this, Prince Li Shi was not angry but happy: "Master Gongsun has a majestic character, and I have always admired him! In the hall last night, we had a few cups of tea with him instead of wine... Then Master Lao, hurry up and kill him
Please come!”
After Li Changyuan heard this, he immediately bowed and left. After a while, he led Sun Xuantong, the solemn face of Shangqing Temple, to the main hall of the East Palace.
The two of them bowed to the prince, but Gongsun Xuantong took out a small spoon from his arms.
The chopsticks are made of cut and polished bamboo wood, and are covered with copper sheets at both ends. The root is slender, but has a shiny glimmer. Just looking at the color of the coating, you can tell that it is an old thing. There are only fifty pieces of chopsticks.
, no more, no less, just the number of Dayan, all packed in a cowhide bag.
Gongsun Xuantong was not humble enough to give in. He sat down on the stone bricks in the palace and started hexagrams on the spot.
First, take out fifty pieces of china, hold it tightly with both hands, put one end directly between the eyebrows, move your lips, as if chanting a mantra, like chanting sutras, then stop for a moment. Then take out one piece, like Tai Chi, and place it by your side.
There were only forty-nine pieces left in his hand. Then, he casually divided the forty-nine pieces into two parts to resemble two instruments, and placed them on the left and right sides on the stone brick floor.
Immediately take out one of the chopsticks from the right hand and hold it between the little fingers of the left hand to resemble the three talents. Then count eight as the number and count the chopsticks on the left one by one. If it is less than eight, the remaining chopsticks will be the same as the chopsticks taken from the right.
Combined into one branch, they are numbered according to the order of the innate hexagrams, which is the image of the lower hexagrams...
After a busy deduction, Gongsun Xuantong muttered something in his mouth, and his brows tightened and relaxed. He looked at Prince Li Shi clenching his fists for a while, and spreading his fingers again, and his palms were covered with cold sweat.
After a long time, Gongsun Xuantong carefully put away the chopsticks and stuffed them back into his arms. Then he stood up from the ground, cupped his hands to the prince Li Shi and said: "I just beheaded first and then played, and I dared to use the birth date of your highness to make a hexagram. I hope your highness will forgive me for being disrespectful!"
"
Prince Li Shi waved his hand and said: "Don't worry, my dear! Many people in the court know the date of my birth, so it is not a secret in the palace. If my dear, I have a glimpse of some revelation, I hope you can tell me the truth."
Gongsun Xuantong then stood up straight and said with a straight face: "Your Highness, this dream is really mysterious! I tried my best to do it, but I could only get a glimpse of the secret. Before interpreting the dream for Your Highness, I must first tell you something.
The things recorded in "You Ming Lu" are considered as supporting evidence."
Prince Li Shi could not wait any longer, so he simply said: "Sir, tell me quickly! No matter what I say today, I will not be punished as a crime."
Gongsun Xuantong finally felt relieved, his eyebrows relaxed slightly, and he talked:
"There is a strange bird in the forests of Lingnan, and it is called the private dove. This bird is greedy, lazy and cunning by nature, has no perseverance, has deceitful wisdom, and is good at changing its eggs and feathers, pretending to be a bird.
Both male and female doves like to have sex, but they are sterile. The birds that wait for them go out to look for food and lay their eggs in their nests. Each nest only lays one or two eggs. The owl's nest has an owl pattern, and the eagle's nest has an eagle pattern.
Although they are different in size, their markings are the same. They are just waiting for the birds to hatch.
The incubation period of the eggs of private doves is slightly shorter. If the eggs of private doves emerge first, they will peck at the eggs of other birds to strengthen themselves. If the eggs of private doves emerge later, they will attract the weak chicks of other birds and attack the healthy chicks to snatch them away.
After it was born, it was healthy for a few days, and the weak chicks were attacked to be their favorites. When the wings gradually matured, they had the same freckle pattern as its own. There were only one and two private doves left in the nest.
When the private dove grows up, it leaves the nest and flies away, either by nature or by habits. It takes away the food of other birds and does not avoid meat and vegetables. It occupies the nest of other birds and does not abandon the cliff wood. When it encounters a weak feather, it will humiliate it alone.
When encountering birds of prey, they will roar in flocks. Although they are not as strong as other birds, all birds will avoid them for fear of not being able to catch them.
A private dove is to other birds, just like a countryman is to a gentleman, and he is a thief of practical virtue.
There is a proverb in Lingnan: If you dream of a private dove, you will be imprisoned. People at that time also said that if you dream of a private dove, you will be trapped in the future, and the nest will be overturned and the eggs will fall. Even if you ask the Buddha, you can't explain it! No!
I am also sad for my husband!"
After Prince Li Shi heard this, he still didn't understand what Gongsun Xuantong meant? His mouth went dry and he said:
"So, the cock-spacing pen I got in my dream... was actually transformed by a private dove?! The strange song of the bird is strange, and it always screams 'nostalgic, nostalgic'..."
When Gongsun Xuantong heard this, he nodded slowly: "It is indeed this bird."
