Chapter 34 Peeping into the Secrets
Liu Yue spoke upon hearing this.
"The Gu family has been very quiet in recent days. It seems that General Gu's intimidation has worked."
Xiao Fuguang frowned slightly when he heard this, and then spoke.
"Well, there's no rush."
"Keep people watching."
Imperial Master's Mansion.
Star-picking Tower.
Anfu Chaoyun Wuhen bowed.
"National Master, the eldest lady is back."
The Imperial Master put down the ancient book in his hand.
"Let her in."
Xiao Fuguang came in quickly, wearing light blue clothes and a simple jade hairpin on his head.
"Meet the Master."
Yun Wuhen glanced at her.
"Have you sorted out all the family matters?"
Xiao Fuguang nodded.
"Yes, everything has been taken care of. Fu Guang has neglected his studies these days. He will come to see Master as soon as he has sorted out his family affairs."
Yun Wuhen spoke slowly after hearing this.
"You know a lot of things, so there's no need to teach you everything. I've selected some books for you. Take a look at them yourself, and ask me if you don't understand anything."
Xiao Fuguang nodded.
Start studying quickly.
This study.
Although I learned a lot from my Taoist master in my previous life, there are still many things I have not seen or learned compared to the books in this astrology building.
Xiao Fuguang read books endlessly and basically held a book in his hand except when eating.
Sometimes I watch it by the fish pond in the Imperial Master's Mansion, sometimes I watch it leaning against the pavilion, and sometimes I watch it sitting on the swing.
Occasionally ask the national teacher for advice.
Two months passed in a flash.
As the twelfth lunar month approaches, the temperature in the imperial city drops.
Even when you get up early, you can see frost and dew on the grass in the mansion.
Mrs. Xiao made clothes and sent them to Xiao Fuguang.
After she changed into a pink dress, Liu Yue put a white cloak on her.
"Miss, this is fox fur, a rare and fine material. Madam really loves you."
Xiao Fuguang felt warm and a happy smile appeared on his face.
"My mother naturally feels sorry for me."
Then he spoke again.
"The weather is getting colder, so you and Xingyue should have someone make you some thicker clothes. I'll reimburse you for the money."
The two of them spoke happily after hearing this.
"Yes, thank you, Miss."
Xiao Fuguang looked at the clothes on his body and spoke.
"Is there still nothing unusual at the Gu family?"
Liu Yue spoke.
"General Gu has returned to the border, and Gu Chuan stayed in the imperial city. I don't know if it's because the emperor didn't give him any rewards, but Gu Chuan is now staying at the palace with Zhuang Linan and the two children. Although General Gu didn't allow them to serve concurrently, the two of them have been secretly in cahoots for a long time, and Madam Gu has turned a blind eye to it. There's nothing special going on."
Xiao Fuguang frowned when he heard this.
"They are quite patient now. Let's wait a little longer. I don't believe they will be willing to give in."
"The mansion must be well protected, especially Qi'an's safety."
Xingyue spoke from the side.
"Miss, don't worry. With your reminder, our mansion is now as solid as an iron barrel. No one with bad intentions can get close to the mansion."
Only then did Xiao Fuguang nod.
"Let's go. I have a question for Master today. I'd also like to ask him to take a look at my new clothes."
Liu Yue looked at the sky.
"Now?"
"Miss, it's dark now."
Xiao Fuguang had already walked out.
"What's the matter? Master must still be picking stars at this very moment."
Star-picking Tower.
Yun Wuhen stood on the top floor holding a compass and looked at the stars in the sky.
The night sky is particularly bright tonight.
However, a star in the north was shining brightly, and the stars around it were somewhat obscured.
Some stars have even become dim.
"Anfu, it's the twelfth lunar month."
Anfu said.
"Yes."
The Imperial Master raised his hand, pinched his fingers, and used the compass to calculate.
After a long time, a hint of worry flashed in his eyes.
"Not good, I'm afraid many people will die this year."
Anfu spoke from the side.
"National Master, is something big going to happen?"
Yun Wuhen frowned, then suddenly closed his eyes and began to calculate.
After a moment, Yun Wuhen opened his eyes.
"not good………"
Before he could finish his words, he spat out a mouthful of blood.
Anfu spoke anxiously.
"National Master..."
Yun Wuhen raised his hand and said.
"Don't make any noise, prepare the carriage, and go to the palace immediately."
When I came down from the Zhaixing Tower, I saw Xiao Fuguang walking towards me with a smile on his face.
"Master."
Yun Wuhen said quickly.
"I need to go to the palace. You should get some rest early."
Watching Yun Wuhen passing by him, Xiao Fuguang pursed his lips.
"All right."
In the palace.
Emperor Xuanyuan looked at the memorial in his hand with a face full of anger.
"Beipan is so bold! Why do they come to steal our Xuanyuan just because they have no food?"
The eunuch who was serving him knelt down hurriedly.
"Your Majesty, calm down."
Emperor Xuanyuan held the memorial tightly in his hand.
"Immediately summon the Prime Minister, the Minister of Revenue, and the Minister of War to the palace."
The young eunuch outside the imperial study came in, knelt down, and spoke respectfully.
"Your Majesty, the Imperial Master requests an audience."
The Imperial Preceptor actually requested an audience at this time. Could it be related to the war in the northern border? Emperor Xuanyuan spoke hurriedly.
"Please come in."
Soon the Imperial Master came in, bowing with a pale face.
"Your Highness."
Emperor Xuanyuan raised his hand to support him.
"No need to be polite, Imperial Master."
"Why is the Imperial Master entering the palace at this time? Is there something important?"
Yun Wuhen bowed.
"Your Majesty, I observed the celestial phenomena tonight and discovered anomalies in the northern constellations. This is a grave omen, foreshadowing a major upheaval in the northern border, possibly related to an invasion by the Beipan Nation. My calculations indicate that this year may bring unprecedented disasters, not only fighting on the border, but also unrest and suffering within the country, leading to the decline of people's livelihoods."
Upon hearing this, Emperor Xuanyuan's expression became even more solemn.
"It turns out that the Imperial Master has already seen it."
Then he handed the weapon on the table to the eunuch beside him.
"Master, please take a look. This was sent urgently from the northern border eight hundred miles away."
Yun Wuhen took the memorial, glanced through it quickly, and frowned.
"Beipan has already taken action."
Then he spoke again.
"No, Your Majesty, I'm afraid it's not just Bei Pan."
"I have calculated that the Greedy Wolf Star is invading the northern constellations, and there is another constellation next to the Greedy Wolf Star to help. There is help in the north, and this helper is not simple. It may be an old enemy."
He looked at the memorial again and calculated with his hand.
"Your Majesty, I'm afraid Yanmen Pass in the northern border can no longer be defended. Your Majesty must arrange for reinforcements as soon as possible. Furthermore, I feel that many things are unclear in this calculation. I'm afraid that the other side has people like me, stirring up trouble, or even trying to block the secrets of heaven."
Upon hearing this, Emperor Xuanyuan's expression became extremely serious.
"If this is true, then the northern border is in danger. Imperial Master, do you have a solution?"
Upon hearing this, Yun Wuhen raised his hand and calculated again.
"Your Majesty, you must arrange for military support as soon as possible, and be sure to send brave and skilled warriors. I will return to Zhaixing Tower and report to Your Majesty immediately if I can spy on anything."
Emperor Xuanyuan nodded heavily.
"Thank you for your help, Imperial Master. I have already ordered the Minister of War, the Minister of Revenue, and the Prime Minister to come to the palace. I will arrange for reinforcements as soon as possible."
Upon hearing this, the Imperial Master bowed.
"I will take my leave."
With Anfu's support, the Imperial Master walked to the palace gate. Seeing Xiao Fuguang waiting not far away, he hurriedly pulled Anfu's hand away.
Walk towards Xiao Fuguang.
Xiao Fuguang stepped forward and called out sweetly.
"Master."
Yun Wuhen looked at her.
"Why is Fu Guang here?"
Xiao Fuguang spoke with a smile.
"It's late at night and the dew is heavy. I'm here to take Master home."
Yun Wuhen nodded.
"Let's go, then. Let's go home."
Xiao Fuguang noticed his expression and spoke with concern.
"Master, why do I feel that you look a little pale? Are you sick?"
Yun Wuhen spoke as he walked towards the carriage.
"It's okay, it might be the wind."
Xiao Fuguang followed him into the carriage.
"All right."
After entering the carriage, Xiao Fuguang was about to say something, but when he saw Yun Wuhen leaning against the wall of the carriage with his eyes closed, he didn't open his mouth in the end.
After looking at the Imperial Master's face for a moment, he found that it also looked like a cloud of fog.
Alas, once this master bows to me, I can no longer see his future at all.
After looking at Yun Wuhen, Xiao Fuguang pondered for a moment and finally lifted the curtain of the car.
"Anfu, let me see your face."
Anfu asked curiously.
"Miss, what do you want to see my face for?"
Xiao Fuguang stared at his face.
I saw Anfu rushing to help someone, and the place seemed to be the Astrology Building.
The only person who could be in the Astrology Tower was the master, and he came into the palace in a hurry, so it seemed that he was injured.
Xiao Fuguang sat back in the carriage.
Looking at the worried expression on the Imperial Master's face.
Suddenly the carriage stopped.
Then came Anfu's voice.
"Oh no, there's an assassin..."
