Chapter 40

Fifteen knelt on the ground, not daring to lift his head, the back of his neck already soaked by sweat.

After Tang Yunhe finished speaking, a servant immediately went out to pass the message, and only then did he place his gaze on Fifteen.

Picking up the teacup from his side, he took a sip: "Considering that Rui Rui is fine, just lost some worldly possessions, this time I will punish you with three months' salary!"

Fifteen excitedly knelt on the ground and kowtowed repeatedly: "Thank you, head of the family, for your magnanimity; thank you, young lady, for your kindness."

Tang Yunhe waved his hand, signaling Fifteen to go out, and then summoned the steward of the Tang residence.

"Has Rui Rui slept yet?"

The steward responded with a hunched body: "Reporting to the master, the young lady has rested after returning."

Tang Yunhe casually picked up the book behind him to read: "Didn't eat dinner?"

"No!"

Hearing that Tang Rui hadn't eaten, Tang Yunhe stood up nervously, wanting to go see his obedient daughter, but suddenly remembered that his daughter had a bad temper when waking up, so he could only pace in place.

And at this moment, Tang Rui was reading a storybook in her boudoir, which was the recently popular "I, Who Was Pampered, Was Kidnapped Up the Mountain to Be the Stronghold Mistress" by Red Persimmon, and her feet shaking from time to time proved that she was reading it very happily.

In the imperial capital, Jingcheng, there was a small courtyard on the southwest side of the magnificent imperial palace, with "Ziwei Yuan" written on the plaque.

In the courtyard, an old man with the appearance of a wind-immortal and Dao-bone was sitting cross-legged on a futon with his eyes closed.

Outside the door, two men wearing Daoist robes walked up and knelt down, the two speaking in unison.

"Xuanji/Yu Heng, pay respects to Master!"

Bu Yunsuan opened his eyes, looking at his two proud students.

"Do you two know why I summoned you?"

Xuanji and Yu Heng looked at each other, and Xuanji responded in a steady tone: "Is Master for the celestial phenomenon a few days ago?"

Bu Yunsuan nodded, his expression becoming a bit heavy.

Yu Heng couldn't wait to ask: "Master, tell us about it."

Although Xuanji didn't speak, the curiosity in his eyes couldn't be hidden.

Bu Yunsuan's voice was calm, as if what he was saying had nothing to do with him.

"The Ziwei Emperor Star is dim and uncertain, with two guest stars offending the Dipper beside it.

One is red as blood, invading the Taiwei Yuan.

One is green as miasma, forcing the Tianshi Yuan.

The seven stars of the Can constellation in the west, their light like swords, dominate the killing energy rushing through the Heavenly Wolf.

The Wei and Xu constellations in the north have formed a connected horn trend, the Xuanwu turtle and snake crossing necks."

Once these words were out, the two were greatly shocked, and even Xuanji, who was always steady, widened his eyes, muttering to himself.

"The Ziwei Emperor Star is dim and uncertain, doesn't that mean... the Holy One... time... is not much?"

Xuanji's voice became smaller and smaller toward the end, clearly realizing what kind of place this was, and this kind of talk was not to be said.

Bu Yunsuan nodded, which could be considered an answer to Xuanji's words; to appease the hearts of the two, he continued: "Don't worry, today no one else can hear what the three of us master and students say."

Only then did the two completely feel at ease, and Yu Heng, with a thoughtful face, continued to interpret what Bu Yunsuan said: "Two guest stars offending the Dipper, could it be referring to the First Prince and the Second Prince?"

Xuanji shook his head, not agreeing: "The First Prince is the designated Crown Prince, humble and compassionate, and no one among the civil and military officials in the imperial court says a word against him.

On the contrary, the Second Prince, his virtue is still unknown, after all, he rarely appears in the imperial court, but if he is far from the imperial court, how could anyone support him?"

Bu Yunsuan picked up the whisk from the side and gripped it in his hand: "Yu Heng is right, the guest stars offending the Dipper are indeed the two princes."

Having guessed it right, Yu Heng was full of joy, while Xuanji sank his face and said: "Now there is frequent drought; if the Emperor Star falls, and the two princes fight for power, won't the common people of the world suffer?"

Hearing this, Yu Heng couldn't help but interrupt his senior brother: "Senior brother, things are not that simple; what about the seven stars of the Can constellation in the west and the two constellations of Wei and Xu in the north?"

Facing what his junior brother said, Xuanji didn't reply, turning to look at Master.

Bu Yunsuan's eyes were flowing with unclear obscurity: "Currently, from the celestial phenomenon, the light in the west is like a sword, and the general trend has been formed; it is clear that the sword has been hidden for many years, just waiting for the Emperor Star to fall, and I am afraid it will set off a sky-high blood light."

The entire Western Frontier has been guarded by the Western Liang King for many years; everyone says that the Western Frontier doesn't know the Son of Heaven but only knows the Liang King; the one who can hide his light and bide his time under the nose of the Western Liang King in the Western Frontier, I am afraid there is no one else but him.

The three people present were all very clear about this point, so none of them said it out loud.

On the contrary, the situation in the north made Xuanji and Yu Heng puzzled: "Then is the north the Northern Town King? If it is him, who is the other person?"

Bu Yunsuan shook his head: "The Northern Town King is loyal and righteous, it is not him."

Yu Heng scratched his head, clearly not knowing what big forces were in the north besides the Northern Town King.

"This is why I summoned you two; Xuanji, you go to the Western Frontier, and Yu Heng, you go to the Northern Frontier."

Xuanji hesitated for a moment, cupping his hands at Bu Yunsuan: "The disciple doesn't understand what Master's arrangement is for."

Seeing that Yu Heng also had a "me too" expression, Bu Yunsuan sighed.

"The divination lineage can't be broken from me! I can't leave, but you can."

After finishing, Bu Yunsuan turned to look in the direction of the imperial palace: "The Holy One has grace for me, I will try to stop all this; if the First Prince and the Second Prince join forces, maybe..."

The two prepared to speak to persuade, but Bu Yunsuan raised his hand and continued.

"Xuanji, according to the celestial phenomenon, you go to the Western Frontier this time, you only need to do one thing."

Xuanji knelt on both knees and cupped his hands, the words of persuasion couldn't be said, and finally could only spit out one sentence: "All depends on Master's instructions."

Bu Yunsuan continued: "The Western Liang King's momentum is unstoppable; with your strength to stop it, it is no different from a mantis trying to stop a chariot; I want you to assist the Western Liang King."

Xuanji looked up in disbelief: "Why... why?"

If he went to help the Western Liang King, wouldn't this be an enemy of his Master?

Bu Yunsuan quickly gave an explanation: "First, the Western Liang King's dispatch will definitely be a river of blood; if you can hold an important position, ensure the safety of ordinary people as much as you can.

Second, the inheritance cannot be broken; I will put the divination money representing 'Bu Yunsuan' in the imperial palace; whichever of you two brothers gets it first, that one is the next 'Bu Yunsuan'."

Speaking of this, Bu Yunsuan couldn't help but recall; since his master died, he had used the name "Bu Yunsuan" for many years, he couldn't remember how long, long enough for him to forget his former name.

The Bu Yunsuan lineage had always been single-transmitted, and there was only one person in the lineage, the reason being that divination money; only by truly obtaining that divination money could one peek at the line of heaven's secrets and inherit the thousand-year divination pulse.

Xuanji turned to look at Yu Heng, his eyes returning to the usual calm, and seeing that Yu Heng had no indication, Xuanji kowtowed three times heavily at Bu Yunsuan.

"Follow Master's order!"

After speaking, Xuanji stood up and walked out; when he reached the door, he paused slightly, but in the end, he didn't turn his head to look at Master again.
