Chapter 962

Qin Mu did not really believe in feng shui or such things.

He did not believe that the layout of buildings or mountains and rivers could change the destiny of a person, or even a dynasty.

But he still let Yuan Tiangang try.

Not for the result.

He just wanted to let Li Er in Jiangnan know that the master of fate-calculation he once relied upon was now serving Great Qin.

Even if the feng shui did not work, this matter could still make Li Er half-dead with anger.

Qin Mu first let Yuan Tiangang go down to rest. Having suffered quite a bit riding in a prisoner cart the whole way, he needed to recover his strength.

He left only Liu Bowen alone in the Imperial Study.

"Bowen, you are also a master of studying fate; do you think Yuan Tiangang's proposal is reliable?"

Liu Bowen was just about to offer advice to the Emperor, but was asked by the Emperor first.

Thus, he bowed and replied.

"Your Majesty, the theory of fate is ethereal, but it cannot be entirely disbelieved. Perhaps it will play a role in some inconspicuous places.

The Great Tang's dragon vein is no longer in Longcheng.

Continuing to make arrangements in Longcheng, although it has no practical effect, can at least let the common people know that the Great Tang is declining and dying.

This is a psychological warfare tactic!"

Liu Bowen's words deeply resonated with Qin Mu.

The decline of the Great Tang was visible to anyone with eyes.

Making this feng shui formation would merely be adding a bit of pressure.

He wanted to see how that Li Er would respond.

"Bowen, this is your first time coming to Changancheng, right?

Spend these few days having a good time in Chang'an, and return to Tibet later."

In truth, Qin Mu was very reluctant to let Liu Bowen return to Tibet.

The Chang'an court also lacked people.

However, that place called Tibet had unusual significance.

In Li Er's eyes, that was Qin Mu's place of rising to power. Otherwise, why would he send Yuan Tiangang thousands of miles away to do some tampering? Geographically, it borders Tianzhu to the south, Yizhou to the east, and the Western Regions to the north. Being a Viceroy in that place is not an easy task. Currently, no one can replace Liu Bowen.

Liu Bowen also knew that the responsibility on his shoulders was heavy.

"Your Majesty, Tibet is the backing for the Western Regions and Tianzhu; this subject also understands the weight of the responsibility on my shoulders. This time I returned just to help Your Majesty check the feng shui layout of the Imperial Palace, to ensure no one has tampered with it, and then I will immediately return to Tibet!"

This was a loyal subject.

It also happened that Qin Mu had not previously arranged for a feng shui master to survey the palace's feng shui.

This time, he could let Liu Bowen take a good look.

Qin Mu took Liu Bowen to the inner palace.

The overall layout of the Great Ming Palace was impeccable. The inner palace also utilized feng shui layouts.

The front palace was heavy and dignified, overall representing a prosperous country and peaceful people. Stone lions and bronze tripods were used to suppress the feng shui in various places.

The inner palace was luxurious, a layout for many children and long life.

By the Taiye Pond, there were also some cranes and sika deer kept, and giant turtles in the pond.
