As the sky gradually darkened, two people wearing bamboo hats hurriedly entered the Peking Prince's Mansion. Few people noticed on the street. As soon as they entered the Prince's Mansion, they walked into a remote house with familiarity. Strangely enough, there were also people in the Peking Prince's Mansion. No one found out.
Did he happen to be away? Or did you leave on purpose? Or did someone arrange all this? Unknown to everyone, a few people stayed in the house for a while and then hurriedly left and returned along the same route. They also didn't meet a single guard or servant along the way.
"Hey!" The remaining people in the room sighed, full of infinite regret.
In the narrow room, several passionate young people were analyzing the major events of the world, down to the smallest detail.
After waiting for a while, Li Jun was still confused and speechless. Hou Cen slowly said: "Although all this is just my delusion, it is somewhat possible. Please listen to me and start from the beginning!"
"This matter starts with the thief that day!"
"What thief?" Wang Chi asked puzzled.
Huang Daozhang smiled and said: "Quicksand stone!"
"What? Quicksand! The quicksand we mentioned in the restaurant that day?"
"That's right!" Hou Cen continued: "At the beginning of this year, a thief stole quicksand stones as a tribute from the Northern Territory Kingdom. Later, it was reported that the thief entered the Peking Palace!"
"Didn't this matter disappear later?" Wang Chi asked.
"But Wang Longyu of Peiping is no longer the perfect hero. Doubts are growing in people's hearts, and they can still test the bottom line!"
"King of Peking??" Li Jun seemed to have some clues.
"The next step is the star ceremony, the most important event of the year for the dynasty! The seven-star lantern was a national artifact at that time. It is said that it can predict the future. Every year, the dynasty will use it to divine the fortune of the next year!"
"And the moving stars will be recorded and announced to the world to show the strong future of the dynasty! The people responsible for criticizing the rising stars are the former officials of that country!"
Qi Chongbao said clearly: "This year's rising star is the Heavenly Wolf at the beginning of the day, then the Big Dipper is under the sky!"
"Although there are many strange people and strange things in the dynasty, the origin of this seven-star lamp is unknown and mysterious. There are not many people who can interpret this star text. I can only rely on that official to explain it!"
"You mean there's something wrong with this annotation?" Li Jun said excitedly.
"Although it's not much, it's not nothing! Right! Brother Huang, I'm just guessing that you have the secret records of the Nine Provinces in your hand, and it's best for you to explain this star text!"
Huang Daozhang smiled and said: "I said why you came to me, it must be to confirm what you think in your heart!"
Hou Cen said calmly: "That's right!"
"Okay! Then I'll tell you, Sirius - the ancient disaster star! Disasters come to the world every time. The beginning - a new prosperous age! A new beginning. The Big Dipper sets, and the road to hell rises!"
"Sure enough! As I thought, this Heavenly Wolf Weiqi is not a symbol of a prosperous age, but a dynasty change!"
"According to the star rising time reported in the palace, it can be up to one year!"
Unparalleled shock, even Hou Cen was a little unexpected. The four of them looked at each other, almost unable to believe what Huang Daozhang said!
"How could it be so fast? According to my estimation, it will take some time, so we can make more preparations!"
"It's May now! There are less than seven months left!" The four of them looked at Huang Daozhang nervously.
Huang Daozhang waved his hand and said: "Don't ask me, I don't know why. This is all recorded in the book, if there are no mistakes in the star text!"
"After the thief incident, men in black assassinated the emperor. During this period, the emperor was not killed, but King Dou Lan Qi Ping'a died. Until the man in black was killed, King Dou Lan was replaced by the current Qiao Chu, and then King Qicheng rebels, and there is a new Four Kings Demon King!"
Li Jun remained calm in the panic, and finally clarified his thoughts and said: "The dynasty has been established for more than thirty years. Why have so many things happened this year? One after another, each one is unprecedented. !”
"Yes, the emperor fell ill and the prince was in charge of the court, but the situation did not slow down. Chu Wen, the head of the Criminal Department, was resigned, and now ten more palace heads have been dismissed. With today's Tianming Wushuang Association, the top of the high school It must be clear who they are, they have already started shuffling the cards to prepare for the future heir apparent!"
"To seize the direct descendants is indeed a harm to the country!"
"It's nothing to seize the direct descendants, it's just that they used a bad strategy!" Huang Daozhang seemed to have thought of this happening.
Li Jun finally understood, "I know, there will be some moves next, even Wang Longyu of Peking, the person they wanted to move from the beginning!"
"That's right, the four kings will be replaced, and all the heroes who founded the dynasty will be purged. At that time, the succession will be clear, but by then the Qi Dynasty will no longer be the Qi Dynasty!" Hou Cen analyzed seriously.
Several people paused for a moment, recalling Hou Cen's words, and found that they were consistent with recent events. They were reasonable and reasonable. A huge conspiracy was revealed during the discussion of several people.
"I'm afraid Xingwen is right in this way, but even if the dynasty's strength is greatly reduced, who can defeat it in such a short period of time? It has no rivals now!"
"There's another secret thing!"
Huang Daozhang looked at Hou Cen thoughtfully: "You even know this?"
Hou Cen laughed loudly and said: "This You'erxin Teahouse is not open for nothing. It is not difficult to know what happened in the palace!"
"What's going on? You two, stop playing riddles and tell me quickly!" Wang Chi couldn't wait any longer.
Hou Cen went on to say: "Since ancient times, the people of the dynasty have wanted it. The Qi Dynasty has been strong for thirty years, but it has forgotten this fundamental. Now it has lost the hearts of the people and will not show up for a while. This is a fatal flaw at the critical moment." !”
"Losing people's hearts?? I don't feel it!" Wang Chi said in confusion.
Huang Daozhang took over the words and said: "Yes, the ten evidences of Chu Wen's previous resignation, judging from his abilities in his nearly thirty years of reign, are definitely not ignorance or indulgence, but someone deliberately did it. The third prince After entering the imperial court and becoming the head of the Ministry of Punishment, I dealt with these matters quickly, but..."
"But some people saw that those robbers were not dead at all!" Hou Cen said bitterly.
"The surface has been dealt with, but in fact it remains the same. The mastermind behind the scenes is self-evident! This matter can be hidden from the courtiers, but not from the people of the world!"
"This is one, and the Destiny Wushuang Society is the other. It has lost the hearts of students all over the world!" Hou Cen said, clenching his fist tightly.
The few people who are doing this are all outstanding, but they are not on the list, which shows how fair this unparalleled meeting is.
"Could it be a misunderstanding? If there are people outside the world and there is a sky outside the sky, wouldn't we be blind and arrogant?" Wang Chi said carefully.
"It's not difficult. As long as they wait for the competition in front of the palace, they will know their level. Even if the article is not made public, it will be spread!"
Qi Chongbao knew that the seriousness of this matter was related to whether their inference was correct.
"There's no need for this. This Destiny Wushuang meeting must be fake, there's no need to doubt it!"
Li Jun said with great certainty, his expression extremely serious.
"Why?!" Wang Chi asked.
"Because no one in the world can surpass my article!"
"Huh!" What a loud tone!
Li Jun's bold words reflect his strength and confidence.
"Not to mention there are a hundred more behind!" Huang Daozhang added silently!
"Everyone is well aware of Brother Li's literary talents. If it weren't for his unsatisfactory official position, Brother Li would have been an important minister in the court. It's a pity that he is still out of town now!"
"What do you say?" Hou Cen asked.
"What do you want to do? Who do you want to help and fight whom?" Huang Daozhang really couldn't think of anyone worthy of their joint help.
"We can't help the war. We still need to wait for the opportunity. The dynasty is falling apart before our eyes. We don't know who is the main force. According to my guess, the trouble will come from those thirteen kingdoms. Since ancient times, there has been no prince who can re-establish the country. Qi I’m afraid the Dynasty won’t need any help!”
Everyone believed this, so they made a blood alliance. In this small hut, the five people drank tea with blood. From then on, they lived and died together. For the ambition in their hearts, they never looked back.
"By the way, Liu Wen has a delicate mind and outstanding literary talent. Should we call him in too!"
Huang Daozhang has always had a deep memory of Liu Wen.
Hou Cen pursed his lips slightly and said, "No need, maybe he has already started since he entered the Peking Palace!"
Huang Daozhang and Wang Chi glanced at each other and noticed each other's shock.
The day after the competition in front of the palace, the exam questions of the ten students were announced by the imperial court, and everyone also saw their poems.
"The wind and rain fall and the cold falls, and I hate the world even if I live for a hundred years!"
"What a poem! What a poem! It is worthy of being written by a famous poet, it is absolutely amazing!" Some students were filled with admiration when they saw such verses.
Cao Mengyu and Wen Jing also got the poems for the competition, and their faces were filled with tears.
"Hey, as Brother Liu said, this is a naked scam. Such a poem can be ranked first in the Tianming Wushuang Association. It is simply an insult to us!" Cao Mengyu said angrily.
"Indeed, it would make sense if this poem could be included in the list, but it is ridiculous that it is the first one!" Wen Jing was also very angry.
"I thought it was an extremely rare feast, but it turned out to be so mean. It's really unfair in the world!"
Wen Jing could only comfort him: "There is no other way. Brother Liu Wen can only take refuge in the mansion. We scholars cannot make the decision in this world!"
"Hey, this is so annoying! By the way, what about Wenchang and Zhang Chao, aren't they interested in this poem?"
"After listening to Brother Liu's analysis yesterday, he was so frightened that he hurriedly resigned from the government department. Zhang Chao was afraid that something would happen to him and accompanied him. He couldn't wait to see the result!" Wenjing then threw the paper with the poem on the ground.
"This is very good, so as to avoid unnecessary disasters in the future!"
"Yes, the situation is extremely dangerous, let's just sit back and watch!"
The two of them left the restaurant where they had lived for many days with disappointment. They wondered whether they would continue to study hard in order to obtain official positions in the future!
Probably not!
On the second day after the competition in front of the palace, within an hour after the top ten students' poems were announced, a big event happened.
The important ministers of the dynasty, Yu Cheng, the left prime minister, and Liang Chen, the right prime minister, resigned and retired.
The prince made some efforts to persuade them to stay and then let them go, and would discuss suitable candidates to replace them later. There were only six second-level officials in the dynasty who resigned for no reason, which was really puzzling.
Previously, the position of the head of the Ministry of Justice was vacant, and countless people were fighting for it. Later, they backed down because the ten issues could not be solved. Now, there are actually two more important positions vacant. Many people are interested, and there are still no future problems for these two positions. Yes, it’s really mouth-watering.
After Yu Cheng and Liang Chen resigned, they quickly left Wushuang City and lost their traces.
