"An earthquake in the south in three days?"
"This is really nonsense."
"This is extremely ridiculous. Your Majesty, drag this man down and behead him!"
Everyone in the court looked disbelieving.
Even Pingjin Hou, who had always trusted Ding Yiyuan, was a little unsure.
Because everyone knows that earthquakes often occur in places with mountains in the northwest, but we have never heard of earthquakes in the south.
It’s hard to believe.
"Since it's three days, why not wait for three more days?" Ding Yiyuan stroked his long beard, "The emperor can put the common people into the dungeon, and we will see the truth in three days."
He stretched out his hands, looking magnanimous.
The emperor's eyebrows flashed.
He wasn't sure how capable the man in front of him was.
But this person gave a time limit.
Believe it or not, true or false, it only takes three days to get the results.
The emperor spoke softly: "I am inviting Mr. Ding to come to the palace as a guest. How can I be imprisoned in a dungeon? Come, please invite Mr. Ding to the Ziwei Palace."
If this person can really calculate the destiny of the country, then he is a rare talent and must not be offended.
If you are really talking nonsense, it is not too late to deal with it after three days.
Ding Yiyuan was taken to Ziwei Palace.
Master Qi wanted to say something, but the emperor waved his hand: "Master Qi, please calculate what the weather is like in the south."
Master Qi had to go and do something.
Immediately afterwards, the emperor ordered the Ministry of Household Affairs to immediately prepare food supplies, and arranged for the Royal Forest Army to rush 800 miles to the south overnight...
The celebration banquet for General Zhu's victory over the South Vietnam Kingdom also started at Yun's house.
Since Yun Silin disappeared, almost all the civil servants of the Yun family have been dismissed. The Yun family's status in the capital has plummeted, and every aspect has been affected.
However, Yun Silin returned to the dynasty with meritorious service and was awarded the title of Grand Sima. He was granted two first-grade official positions and became the first person in the Jin Dynasty.
Such honor and favor pushed the Yun family to the top, becoming more prosperous than before.
You can imagine how many people there will be at the celebration banquet.
When Yun first arrived, the courtyard was full of people.
Although it has stopped snowing, the weather is still very cold. The yard is not a house, and even a charcoal fire can't drive away the chill.
But the guests were still standing in the courtyard in small groups, chatting with each other. Since Yun Silin was not there, those guests took the Yun family to talk.
Yun Run looked at the lively and prosperous scene in front of him and felt fear in his heart.
In fact, after the incident in the Yun family, his father-in-law hinted him many times to abandon the dark side and join the bright side, using some of the old members of the Yun family to gain a future.
He did have a heartbeat, but his mother kept reminding him every day, so the little heartbeat was naturally strangled in the cradle.
He was very glad that he had not made the wrong choice, otherwise, he would have been expelled from the Yun family tree now.
Yunchu stood in the yard for a while, but it was really cold, so he quickly entered the Nuan Pavilion.
Her mother was sitting in the Nuan Pavilion, talking to a group of ladies with her face glowing red, and Yun Chu took the opportunity to sit down.
The ladies immediately looked at Yun Chu and started to praise him.
All kinds of nonsense.
Yun Chu couldn't even hear it.
It wasn't until the servants in front came to report that the emperor arrived, a group of people quickly came out of Nuan Pavilion to greet him.
The emperor, empress, as well as the princes and others all came, once again proving the royal family's trust and honor in the Yun family.
"There is no need to be polite." The emperor waved his hand, "Don't be restrained just because I'm here. Today is the general's celebration banquet. You all have to eat and drink with the general. This is the greatest loyalty."
The royal family sat down at the highest place. There were screens on three sides of the place, and charcoal fires were lit on the front, back, left, right, and under the table, making it very warm.
Yunchu was eating vegetables when a voice came from his ear: "Miss Yun, this princess is calling you."
She raised her head and looked to her upper right. It was Princess Qinghua calling her.
She twitched the corners of her lips.
After celebrating the New Year in the capital, isn't it time for the princess to go back to the Prince Consort's Mansion in Pingliang Mansion? Why hasn't she left yet?
"What advice does the princess have?"
Princess Qinghua changed places and sat next to Yun Chu, lowering her voice and saying: "Since you are familiar with Doctor Wu, why don't you ask for medicine for me?"
Yun Chu asked: "What hidden disease does the princess have?"
"I just want to keep my appearance." Princess Qinghua said, "Why, do you want to refuse my order?"
"Second sister is really the first person to act like a princess in front of the Yun family." Chu Yi's voice came coldly from the side, "Does second sister dare to say this in front of General Yun?"
Princess Qinghua ranks second among all the princesses, and Chu Yi has always been called the second sister.
Her face couldn't help but stiffen: "I'm just asking Miss Yun for a favor."
"You have to have a proper attitude when asking for help." Chu Yi drank a glass of wine and looked at Yun Chu, "Miss Yun, my second sister is not sensible. I will lend you this glass of wine to apologize for her."
Princess Qinghua's fists clenched in anger.
She was already thirty years old, and yet she was accused of being ignorant by her own brother in front of a twenty-year-old woman.
What a shame.
She could tell that Yi'er might have had thoughts about Yun Chu for a long time, but those two children just happened to make it happen.
Otherwise, how could Yi'er disgrace her sister in front of an outsider?
Fortunately, if the horoscopes are not in harmony, the marriage cannot be achieved.
Otherwise, she would have to be pissed off by her own brother in the future.
Princess Qinghua threw up her sleeves and left the table.
Yun Chu looked at Chu Yi helplessly and shook his head gently.
This man did have good intentions for standing up for her, but Princess Qinghua will definitely put the blame on her.
It's not that she's afraid of Princess Qinghua, it's mainly that she doesn't want to cause unnecessary trouble.
Fortunately, Princess Qinghua does not live in the capital permanently, and the two of them do not interact too often.
Halfway through the banquet, Yun Zhenjiang ran out and wrote a poem to celebrate his grandfather, General Zhu Guo.
Immediately afterwards, the Eighth Prince came out, took out his flute and played a soul-stirring marching song.
Not to be outdone, Chu Hongyu held her little hands behind her back and walked on her short legs. After holding in for a long time, she finally ran to take out a painting made by her sister and presented it to her.
"Reward, reward for all!" The emperor laughed and said, "How about a set of pen, ink, paper and inkstone for each person?"
Chu Hongyu had a grimace on his face and wanted to refute. He glanced at his father and silently swallowed back the thought of changing the reward.
Yun Zhenjiang thanked him very politely and accepted the reward.
The Eighth Prince suddenly raised his robe and knelt down: "Father, my son is brave, can you give me another reward?"
Chu Hongyu puffed up his cheeks. He wanted to change it too. He had been interested in his grandfather's finger ring for a long time. It would be so nice to cut out the little green gem and make it into a pendant for his mother.
The emperor was a little surprised by the eighth prince's behavior.
Because in his impression, Lao Ba has a very low sense of presence, he does not have the aura of a prince, and his eyes are as pure as a little white rabbit.
He felt that Lao Ba was very timid.
However, on such an occasion, he proposed to change the reward.
Usually only the ignorant Brother Yu can do such a thing.
The emperor said: "What reward do you want?"
The eighth prince lowered his head and said, "My son would like to ask my father to make me the king in advance."
As soon as these words came out, everyone present was shocked.
As a prince and grandson, it was only a matter of time before he was crowned king. Is it too anxious to ask for the title of king when he was only nine years old? The five, six or seven princes in front of him had not yet been crowned.
