Chapter 211 This... this hexagram is not right!
Bai Wutong retracted the thorns on her body and returned to her gentle and soft appearance, making Zhang Chengyan unable to find a reason to continue blaming her.
Seeing this, Jin Weige wanted to add fuel to the fire and say something more.
At this time, Concubine De spoke slowly, "Your Majesty, I think it is understandable that Concubine Zhao acted this way. Back then, my younger brother was accidentally trampled by a horse and his waist was broken. He will never be able to stand up again in this life. Mother was heartbroken and cried for seven days. Her eyes were almost blinded by crying. At that time, my father was not in the capital because of official business. When he came back, my mother scolded him severely."
Concubine Hui also agreed, "Yes, I also think that Concubine Zhao should find a way to vent. It would be bad if she kept holding it in and got sick."
When Jin Weige heard this, she became angry and glared at Concubine De and Concubine Hui fiercely.
Don’t these two people usually love to laugh at others and never interfere in the trivial matters of the harem?
Why did he suddenly change his temper today and start speaking up for Concubine Zhao?
Bai Wutong was also deeply surprised. A hint of surprise flashed in his eyes, and he couldn't help but look at them.
Defei acted as if nothing had happened. She picked up the teacup elegantly and took a sip, without any intention of explaining.
Duan Chunrou sighed at the right time, "Your Majesty, I am of low status and shouldn't say too much. But I did visit Sister Zhaopin many times, and every time I saw her crying, she felt terrible."
With so many people speaking up for Bai Wutong, Zhang Chengyan stepped down and said, "Well, I will not pursue today's matter any further. Zhaopin, please take a seat."
"I will not sit down." Bai Wutong forced a slightly far-fetched smile, the resentment and grief in her eyes were not concealed, and anyone could see through it at a glance, "Yun and Yunxi should wake up. If I am not around, they will definitely cry and make a fuss. Your Majesty, I dare not ask you to visit them, I just hope that this one-year-old banquet can be held as scheduled."
"Your Majesty, you are the Son of Heaven, carrying the mandate of heaven and aura of great luck. The ancients said that the blessings of the Son of Heaven can protect the country and the people. If you are willing to pray sincerely for the two children, Yun and Yunxi, with your supreme honor and great luck, you may really be able to move heaven and make their conditions better."
"I... promise you!" Zhang Chengyan thought for a moment and finally agreed.
This first birthday party had been planned long ago. If I couldn't even fulfill it, I would inevitably be criticized and appear to be too heartless.
In fact, if Bai Wutong had not argued so hard today, Zhang Chengyan had planned to cancel the banquet quietly, as if nothing had happened, and try to downplay the existence of the two foolish princes.
"Thank you, Your Majesty. I'll take my leave." The goal had been achieved. Bai Wutong bowed, then turned around and left quickly.
The moment she stepped out of Qimeng Garden, she raised her hand to wipe away the remaining tears on her face, and her expression instantly became indifferent. "As long as the one-year-old banquet can be held as scheduled, then I will publicly announce the detoxification of Yun and Yunxi, and then subtly attribute part of the credit to the emperor, so that he will mistakenly believe that it was the heaven who favored him as the emperor that made Yun and Yunxi recover as before. In this way, with the blessing of this so-called destiny, I think he will pay more attention to the two children."
After saying that, Bai Wutong turned to look at Chan'er beside him and ordered in an orderly manner, "Chan'er, you go to the Imperial Observatory immediately to pass on the message. Tell him that I want to invite the director of the Imperial Observatory, and ask him to come to Zhaochun Palace to see me as soon as possible. If he hesitates and is unwilling to agree, tell him and let him cast a hexagram himself, and let the hexagram decide whether to come or not."
Bai Wutong knew clearly that the director of the Imperial Observatory had some real abilities.
He is quite accomplished in divination, astrology and numerology.
She thought that with Jianzheng's ability, he should be able to figure out some key things.
For example, she already has a new dragon fetus in her belly.
Or if the emperor truly desires to have many offspring, then Bai Wutong must be an indispensable part of it!
"Yes, I'll go right away!" Chan'er took the order and did not dare to delay at all, and turned around and left in a hurry.
In the southeast corner of the imperial palace is the Imperial Observatory.
When the supervisor heard the report from his men, he couldn't help but frown slightly.
Why did Concubine Zhao suddenly want to see him?
He has always acted cautiously and does not like to get too involved with concubines so as to avoid being involved in harem disputes.
However, the words Chan'er brought aroused his curiosity.
Zhaopin actually asked herself to tell her fortune. Could it be that she has something secret?
The supervisor returned to the study, took out the tortoise shell skillfully, and then opened the secret compartment in the wall.
In the secret compartment, the birth dates of all the concubines, as well as the items they once wore, are neatly arranged.
Jade pendants, sachets, gold hairpins, etc. are all available.
These were sent by the emperor so that he could use these items and divination techniques to gain insight into matters in the harem when necessary.
But over the years, I have only used it once or twice.
The supervisor's eyes were fixed on Bai Wutong's birth date. After a while, he reached out and carefully picked up the handkerchief representing Bai Wutong. He gently placed it together with the tortoise shell, clasped his hands together, and muttered something.
The tortoise shell drew an arc in the air, and then fell heavily on the table with a dull sound.
After repeating this three times, the hexagram finally appeared.
"This... there's something wrong with this hexagram!"
This hexagram clearly shows that the fate of a woman is not that of a woman, but rather that of a man!
"Could it be... that this birth date is wrong?"
Could it be that Concubine Zhao did not present her true horoscope?
The supervisor was a little annoyed. He put aside the suspicious birth date and used only the handkerchief and tortoise shell to do divination again.
The result of this divination left him stunned.
"The tortoise shell has fallen, cracks are everywhere, showing the image of Great Derivation... A closer look shows that this woman's fate is noble and unparalleled, she is a true phoenix, incomparable to ordinary people! Her fate chart echoes the celestial phenomena, the purple star shines, there is a sign of the emperor star, just in line with the image of "the phoenix roosting in the wutong tree"! Moreover, the Kun Palace is auspicious, indicating the birth of a dragon descendant. The child in this woman's belly is destined by heaven, and will ascend to the throne and rule the world in the future! This woman's nobility is a destiny determined by heaven. She has great blessings and will protect the country and be the mother of the world. It is indeed a good omen for the country and a blessing for the world!"
The supervisor took a deep breath and cursed in a low voice, "Damn it..."
Immediately, he stood up suddenly, "Go to Zhaochun Palace!"
