"Manager Hu!"
Emperor Feng frowned and pointed forward.
He looked at Ning Que again.
But he made a secret gesture.
Um?
He also understood it in an instant.
This must be Ning Que’s clever idea.
But he actually came to Mount Tai in advance?
And did he leave a backup plan early on?
Did Ning Que know it would rain?
impossible!
This kind of thing is simply unrealistic.
Emperor Feng actually thinks too much.
Even weather forecasts are sometimes inaccurate, let alone Ning Que's. He was simply preparing in advance, taking precautions. He had Tie Niu sneak onto Mount Tai to set up a trap. If it actually rained, the jade pendant would be washed off the rocks, as if it had fallen from the sky.
If it doesn't rain, nothing will happen.
After we leave Mount Tai, we can have someone take it back.
It's just a precaution, it's not that mysterious.
Manager Hu walked forward quickly.
Pick up the jade pendant from the ground.
I was shocked when I saw the words above.
"Your Majesty, look!"
"Um?"
This jade pendant is extremely exquisitely crafted.
It is obviously the work of a master craftsman.
There are carved dragons and painted phoenixes, and cloud patterns all over.
There are some small words engraved on the back.
【Five stars rise in the east! 】
"Five stars appear in the east?"
"What does this mean?"
Tian Zhongxun had a cold face.
Looking at the arrogant Ning Que.
This matter has nothing to do with Ning Que, he has the same surname as Ning Que!
This is clearly the boy's method!
But do they have evidence?
"Grand Historian, how do you explain this?"
"Five stars appear in the east. This is an auspicious sign!" The elderly Grand Historian slowly stepped out, raised his hand, and explained, "There are five stars in the sky: Jupiter, Mars, the Earth-Stabilizing Star, the White Star, and the Morning Star. As the heavens and the earth rotate, the sun and the moon pass by, and it's difficult for the five stars to converge."
"Five stars are scattered across the sky, and when they gather in the east, it benefits the Central Plains. Six months ago, Prince Ning got married, and the five stars gathered in the east. All five stars gather from the star Chen in one direction. The country in that direction can follow their example and conquer the world!"
"Congratulations, my Royal Brother! Congratulations, my Royal Brother!" Ning Que hurried forward. "This is a jade gift from Heaven. It's Heaven's response to you, my Royal Brother, and it's also recognition of your achievements over the years!"
"Long live His Majesty, long live the Great Feng!"
"Long live His Majesty, long live the Great Feng!"
“…”
Faced with the violent storm, all the ministers bowed and cried out loudly.
Accompanied by thunder, shouts of "Long live!"
Emperor Feng smiled and nodded.
"No need to bow, gentlemen!"
"The Fengshan ceremony is only halfway through."
"Although this gentle rain is welcome, your health is more important. Let's take shelter in the palace today and wait until the rain stops. Then we can climb Liangfu Mountain to worship the Earth God!"
"Your Majesty obeys!"
All the ministers raised their hands and bowed at the same time.
Ning Que breathed a sigh of relief.
Fortunately, this wave was managed.
He wasn't particularly interested in astrology, but rather what the fortune teller had told him. When he first arrived in Chang'an, the fortune teller had predicted based on the shifting of the stars that five stars would rise in the east. He also predicted that Dafeng would soon resume its campaigns and achieve a resounding victory.
Ning Que was thinking of the Eastern Expedition to Goguryeo, so he summoned the Heaven to offer the Jade. This would not only allow the Heavenly Sacrifice Ceremony to conclude perfectly, but also give the Eastern Expedition a legitimate reason.
…
"Xiao Ning, this jade pendant is yours, right?"
Emperor Feng was sitting in the palace, looking at Ning Que.
"Royal brother is amazing."
"My brother's tricks have been discovered."
"Oh……"
Emperor Feng couldn't help but chuckle.
You can figure these things out if you use your brain a little.
They were just acting together.
It's not easy to hide from those old foxes.
But the situation at that time was right in front of us.
Who among them dares to question it?
"It's my fault for not thinking it through this time."
"They said it definitely wouldn't rain."
"I didn't take it to heart."
"I can't believe it..." Emperor Feng seemed a little disappointed. He looked at Ning Que and said, "Xiao Ning, do you think there really is such a thing as heaven in the universe?"
"Compared to the invisible heaven, I believe that you, the Emperor, are the true Heaven of Dafeng. Your words and deeds are role models for your subjects. A single word from you can decide the life and death of millions of people. Therefore, you, the Emperor, do not need to be too concerned. If this thing works, believe it; if it doesn't work, don't believe it."
"Hahaha!"
Emperor Feng couldn't help but laugh.
Ning Que jokingly said, "In Guanzhong, the common people are quite pragmatic. There are three hundred Buddhist temples and countless shrines. If something isn't effective, it's probably because the deity itself isn't good, and gradually, no one worships it. The incense gradually wanes, and eventually it declines. So, are these believers disrespecting the deity?"
Emperor Feng smiled and shook his head.
Of course he knew these things.
Although Ning Que didn't say it explicitly, his meaning was clear. He was telling him not to take it personally. So-called providence depends on how one interprets it, and there are both good and bad. Just like the charlatans who tell fortunes on the street, they always try to be nice to the person and try to be as charismatic as possible.
"Brother, have you seen my master as well?"
"Um."
"When it comes to divination and face reading, there are probably few in Shenzhou who can surpass him. He has made many predictions, and all of them have come true. I sought him out a few days ago, hoping he could predict the fortunes of my Eastern Expedition. What do you think he said?"
"Oh? How do you mean?"
Emperor Feng also became interested.
I really want to know the hexagram from Bu Suanzi.
"He kicked the tortoise shell away, pointed at my nose and yelled at me. He even asked me why I, at such a young age, believed in such things. He said that human intervention was crucial. Could it be that just because the hexagrams showed an unfavorable outcome, Dafeng would not attack Goguryeo?"
"Hahaha, Pavilion Master is truly at a high level."
