Five hundred and thirtieth IX night view of the sky
Lin Xuan was not in the mood to miss the past with Zhang Qing, bid farewell to his mother, and absentmindedly returned to his yard.
"Master Hou, has something happened?"
Chun Yue brought tea to Lin Xuan. Seeing that Lin Xuan's expression was abnormal, she asked with concern.
Lin Xuan took Chunyue's hand and said: "Chunyue, you said that if you know that something will happen and cause many deaths, if I tell it, I may avoid many deaths, but there is a high possibility that it will cause death to many people.
I have caused some trouble, do you want me to tell you?"
Although he knew that there would be floods in Henan and Shandong this year and an earthquake in Chang'an, he had no way of explaining it.
But he obviously knew that if he could prepare early, many deaths could be avoided. If he didn't tell him, his conscience would be uneasy.
Chun Yue thought for a while and said softly: "Master Hou, I don't understand the truth, but my mother told me when I was young that no matter what happens, as long as I have a clear conscience."
Do you have a clear conscience?
"By the way, I never asked you, who else is there in your family?" Lin Xuan asked.
Chunyue was sold to the Lin family during the severe drought in Guanzhong in the second year of Zhenguan. Lin Xuan didn't know much about her family's situation.
"My parents are here, and I have a younger brother," Chunyue said.
"Have you ever blamed your parents for selling you?"
Chunyue smiled slightly and said: "How could it be possible? There was a severe drought in Guanzhong and there was a locust plague. The family had no harvest. If the family didn't sell me, they wouldn't be able to support the court's disaster relief. They had no choice but to sell me.
Yes, I don’t blame them.”
"If you want to go home, you can go back and have a look, and just say it was me." Lin Xuan said.
"Thank you, Lord Marquis."
"Okay, go and do your work."
Lin Xuan sat in the study for a while and finally made a decision.
…
royal palace
After the dispersion of the dynasty, Li Shimin summoned his closest officials to the Ganlu Hall to discuss matters.
Normally, all the decrees implemented by the imperial court were negotiated between Li Shimin and his confidants in the Ganlu Hall.
The morning court is more about announcing decrees. After all, there are so many officials in the morning court. If any secret matters are discussed, it will be easily spread.
"Your Majesty, the cavalry of the Beida camp has been trained and they are waiting to go to the battlefield every day." Cheng Yaojin said with foaming at the mouth.
Li Shimin covered his nose, looked at Cheng Yaojin with some disgust, and said, "It's fine if you don't sit down if I give you a seat, but can you please stay away from me when you talk?"
Most of the people present had taken elixirs, and quite a few had eaten garlic in the morning. In order to maintain their image, they rinsed their mouths countless times. Although there was still a bit of a peculiar smell, it was very light. Plus they were far away, Li Shimin
Can't smell it at all.
But Cheng Yaojin obviously ate the garlic on purpose without rinsing his mouth, and even deliberately came up to him to talk. His mouth was filled with the smell of garlic when he spoke.
Isn't it because I didn't give you a toothbrush and toothpaste?
Can you really blame me? When you came, the toothbrushes and toothpaste had been divided up and everyone had left. What should he do?
"Your Majesty, aren't you afraid that Your Majesty won't hear you?" Cheng Yaojin said with a smile.
Li Shimin rolled his eyes, but there was nothing he could do about someone like Cheng Yaojin.
"Your Majesty, the Marquis of Jingyang County wants to see you." Li Mu bowed and said.
Li Shimin was overjoyed and said: "Zhijie, the rightful owner is here. If you want toothpaste and toothbrush, just go to him."
After speaking, Li Shimin asked Lin Xuan to come in.
Not long after, Lin Xuan walked in, bowed and saluted: "Your Majesty, I have met you all."
Li Shimin waved his hand and said: "You came just in time, just because you came up with the idea. The smell of garlic filled the room with your words. How inappropriate is it? Can't you make more toothpaste and use it on your toothbrush?"
I saved you by co-authoring, but I still have to care about your sequelae?
Lin Xuan said with a serious expression: "Your Majesty, I have something very important to report to Your Majesty this time."
Seeing Lin Xuan's serious expression, Li Shimin's smile faded and asked, "What's the matter?"
"Your Majesty, I watched the sky last night. This summer, there will be floods in Shandong and Henan. Around October, an earth dragon will turn over in Chang'an." Lin Xuan said with a heavy face.
Li Shimin and the ministers looked at Lin Xuan blankly.
Lin Xuan thought that when he told the news, it would cause an uproar or a lot of doubts.
He never expected that there would be silence after he finished speaking.
"Hahaha~, boy Lin, this joke is not funny at all." Cheng Yaojin laughed loudly, winking at Lin Xuan.
"Marquis of Jingyang County, have you ever considered the consequences of saying this?" Changsun Wuji asked with a smile on his face.
Although he was smiling, his eyes were half cold and half surprised.
Even Li Chunfeng of Qintian Prison was said to be able to read people and judge divinations. Li Shimin asked him to predict the weather, but he refused.
Lin Xuan, a young boy, talks about observing the sky at night. How is it possible?
If it were anything else, even if Lin Xuan talked nonsense, Li Shimin might not care.
But Lin Xuan falsely said that there would be floods in Henan and Shandong, but Li Shimin couldn't care less.
Since Li Shimin succeeded to the throne, natural disasters have continued throughout the world. In order to undermine Li Shimin's prestige, the family secretly spread the news that it was because Li Shimin killed his brother and imprisoned his father, and that he was unfairly appointed to the throne, which was a natural punishment.
Although Li Shimin tried his best to remedy the situation, many people still believed this rumor.
If what Lin Xuan said this time got out and was used by someone with ulterior motives, how could Li Shimin let Lin Xuan go?
Li Shimin looked at Lin Xuan with a gloomy expression: "Do you know what the consequences of your words will be? I'll pretend I haven't heard these words. You can go down."
"Your Majesty, I know that I am willing to risk my life to guarantee that what I said is true. If what I said does not happen, I am willing to accept any punishment." Lin Xuan said seriously.
"Boy Lin, do you know what you are talking about?"
Cheng Yaojin winked at Lin Xuan and said: "Your Majesty, this boy must have drunk too much yesterday and is still awake. Don't be the same as him."
"Yes, Your Majesty, I will take him away right now." After Yuchi Gong said that, he was about to step forward and take Lin Xuan away.
"Wait a minute." Li Shimin looked at Lin Xuan and said seriously: "Are you serious?"
Lin Xuan nodded affirmatively.
Cheng Yaojin patted his head speechlessly, it's true that good words can't save a damned person.
If Lin Xuan just followed his words and apologized, it would be fine, but now it is difficult for him to cover for Lin Xuan.
Li Shimin looked at Li Mu and said, "Go find Li Chunfeng."
"yes."
After Li Mu left, the hall became quiet. Everyone had different expressions and didn't know what they were thinking.
Li Shimin waved his hand and said, "Let's all sit down."
The atmosphere in Ganlu Hall was a bit solemn, and this solemnity did not dissipate until Li Chunfeng arrived.
"Your Majesty, Li Chunfeng, is here to see you."
Li Shimin waved his hand and said: "Lin Xuan said that he watches the stars at night. This summer, there will be floods in Henan and Shandong. Do you think it will happen?"
Li Chunfeng smiled bitterly and shook his head, and said: "Your Majesty, although I can predict the weather, I can only predict the weather where I am, and I can only predict it one or two days in advance. There are still several months before summer, so I can't predict it at all."
It’s impossible to predict.”
Lin Xuan curled his lips, this is not a prediction at all, it is just predicting the weather based on some conditions, as if he can calculate it.
"Can't even you see it?"
Li Shimin saw that Li Chunfeng couldn't predict it, and he didn't believe Lin Xuan's words even more.
"Your Majesty, although I am not good at it, I know that a person should be able to do it. If I can invite him here, I will definitely be able to see it." Li Chunfeng said.
