"Master Ning, can't you let me figure out some big things?"
Shen Youchu was obviously not satisfied with this simple question.
Ning Wuyan had no intention of changing it, and looked at the gossip bag with a smile.
There must be something else bulging inside.
as expected.
At his insistence, Shen Youchu took out a large handful of yarrow from the bag again.
"This is called yarrow. It is specially used for counting hexagrams. There are fifty roots in total."
Shen Youchu said that he took out one from the middle and put it into Ning Wuyan's hand, asking him to hold it.
Then divide the remaining forty-nine yarrow stalks into two halves in the middle, one handful for each hand.
She took out another yarrow from her right hand, clamped it between her little fingers, put the yarrow in her right hand on the tablecloth, and began to count the yarrows in her left hand four by four. If she couldn't make up four yarrows, she took out the remaining ones. Count left hand and then right hand.
Repeat this three times, and write down the number you get after counting the remaining roots and dividing them by four.
"Seven sixty-seven, seventy-sixty-seven...from the middle fire, it becomes dry. Ah, this fog will not completely disappear until almost noon when the sun is at its maximum, but it will slowly subside, and the carriage will leave soon. It’s going faster, Mr. Ning, be careful and don’t get hurt by the bumps.”
Shen Youchu said it very firmly.
Although she is young, her eyes are sincere and sincere, giving people a sense of unconditional trust.
Ning Wuyang immediately understood why Hua Shi must let her become his apprentice.
He was about to tease Shen Youchu and ask her if her calculation was wrong.
But seeing that Shen Youchu had gathered all the yarrows that had been separated just now, and conveniently took back the one that was given to him, he asked enthusiastically.
"Do you want to count anything else?"
"For example, career."
"There's also marriage and stuff like that."
When the word "marriage" was mentioned, Shen Youchu's eyes became bright and he looked very expectant, which made Ning Wuhuang couldn't help laughing.
Want to calculate his marriage?
What if he is not satisfied with the calculation?
"Marriage is destined by nature, and I don't count."
"Forget it."
Shen Youchu's coquettish behavior is irresistible.
However, Ning Wuhuang was a principled person and decisively changed the topic.
"How about you help me calculate how many people from the Western Region countries are waiting to challenge me in the capital."
"All right."
Although Shen Youchu was still not satisfied with this issue.
But at least it concerns Mr. Ning, not letting her worry about the weather.
She once again took out a yarrow and stuffed it into Mr. Ning's hand, recited the question that required divination piously and silently, and then parted the yarrow again.
In the wilderness outside, the fog gradually dissipated as the sun gradually rose.
A large number of vehicles were heading west.
Hundreds of miles away.
Herds of horses were galloping across the wilderness, heading east.
Most of the envoys from the Western Regions were born to explore on horseback. For them, horseback is like another home.
Beidi Imperial Master is no exception.
The sun is shining brightly today and the temperature is rising, which is perfect for horse racing and hunting in autumn.
Even after entering Yumen Pass, Daxing is close to the Western Region, and there are still large areas of wasteland.
On the wasteland, there were scattered villages and homes separated by dozens of miles. These people from the Western Regions, who had been restrained for a long time because of the rush, started galloping on their horses.
The shouts of excitement and the screams of prey were intertwined. As the Beidi Imperial Master, a divine being in the eyes of others, he naturally could not participate in the fun of ordinary people.
Good thing.
Just watching the Beidi people running around in the wilderness of Daxing without any scruples, the Beidi Imperial Master felt that it was pleasing to the eye, and he no longer cared too much about whether he could participate in it.
"Chirp!"
The sharp cry of the goshawk in the sky attracted the attention of many people.
Beidi Imperial Master stretched out his arm, and the special embroidered pattern reflected the dazzling light, causing the goshawk in the sky to stop circling and land accurately on the pattern on his arm.
No one was surprised by this scene.
Everyone in Beidi knows that this goshawk was trained by their national master since childhood and is specially used by the national master to convey messages.
In addition to this goshawk, there is also a hawk specially used to convey messages.
This goshawk can fly more than a thousand miles in a day, faster than a thousand-mile horse.
It is precisely with the help of such convenient communication efficiency that the Imperial Master is able to have a thorough understanding of the major changes in Daxing.
The Beidi Imperial Master took out a piece of dried meat from his sleeve and stuffed it into the eagle's mouth. While the goshawk was swallowing the meat, it raised its left paw and asked it to take off the letter box tied to it.
After untying the mailbox, the Beidi Imperial Master gently tapped the goshawk on the head, and it fluttered its wings and continued to hover above the Beidi Imperial Master, refusing to leave.
In other people's opinion, this is because Beidi Imperial Master is shrouded in divine light, which attracts the goshawk and prevents it from leaving.
But only Beidi Imperial Master himself knew that it was because of his discipline that Goshawk did not dare to leave.
Open the mailbox and take out a roll of letter paper.
The changes in Jing'an City in the past two days are written on it in characters specially used by Beidi people.
Including, but not limited to, the punishment of Emperor Daxing on the courtiers who secretly brought envoys from the Western Regions outside the Jade Gate, as well as the punishment of the Jin Palace and the Qiao Family of the Imperial Shang.
at last.
It was he who made the spies originally in Daxing pay attention to the news.
It was spread from Luohe Road to Jing'an City, and then to him.
How it should have been.
But when he saw the news that he was concerned about. In addition to the spies who specially collected it, Prince Jin also specifically told Descartes. He understood in his heart how worried Prince Jin was that he would not be able to fulfill the covenant and let Ning Wuhuang accept it. God's punishment.
After reading the content of the letter, the Beidi Imperial Master tore the letter into pieces and scattered it into the river beach not far away in the direction of the wind. His indifferent expression did not change at all.
"Master Hua has retired to Jiangnan Road, but he still wants to join in the fun for Ning Wuhuang. I was worried that Daxing has such a divine man to protect the country. When he goes out to fight, he will be given the opportunity. This time, it's just right. Together with Ning Wuyan, send him on the road."
The Imperial Master of Beidi has naturally heard of Hua Yi's fame and also knows that Hua Yi is highly capable.
only!
What Hua Yi is good at is deduction. Even if he has inner energy to protect his body, he can't resist his unique secret art - the Divine Punishment Technique!
"Everything is under control."
The Beidi Imperial Master looked eagerly to the east.
Jing'an City.
Already in sight!
Went forward another hundred miles.
Daxing finally sent officials to approach, and the wasteland became a city within thirty miles and a state within a hundred miles.
Even the most remote state capital is still more prosperous and lively than any royal city in the Western Regions. The talented people who come to compete are like bumpkins entering the city.
In order to prevent them from causing embarrassment when they arrived in Jing'an City, Beidi Imperial Master specially allowed them to stay in the state capital for one day, claiming to the officials who came to receive them in Daxing that they were tired from the journey.
The Daxing officials responsible for the reception naturally did not urge them to leave, and even provided them with fine wine, delicious food, and warm hospitality.
Unfortunately.
The people of the Western Regions, who were always fond of wine, did not dare to drink too much.
When the one-day stay was over, the horses galloped along the official road, deliberately leaving behind the officials responsible for the reception, demonstrating their superb riding skills.
Less than two days.
From the westernmost part of Guannai Road, we arrived at Jing'an City, four hundred miles away.
Walking on the official road leading to Jing'an City, caravans came and went like a shuttle. Even though the students were used to seeing the prosperity of Daxing along the way, they were still shocked by the majestic city walls and passers-by wearing exquisite costumes. Nothing more can be added.
Daxing officials, who had been eating horsetail soil for several days, finally felt proud after seeing their reactions, and gestured to the city five miles away.
"Guiyuan Imperial Master, just ahead is the West Gate of the capital. We handed over the urgent report to Your Majesty the day before yesterday. Even if His Majesty does not come to greet you in person today for such a big event, he will definitely send someone to greet you. Guests who have come from afar, show me my Daxing hospitality style."
Daxing’s hospitality style?
The Imperial Master of Beidi looked into the distance with great interest.
I vaguely saw a group of big brown horses standing outside the west city gate.
