Chapter 45 Opportunities(1/2)

The news about the lunar eclipse on the 15th spread immediately.

"What's all the fuss about?"

Gao Lingbo said casually.

"If Si Tiantai does not predict three or four solar and lunar eclipses in a year, if it is accurate three times out of ten, the incense of Puxiu Temple will be effective."

The subordinates in the room laughed.

"There has already been a solar eclipse this year. Wouldn't it be chaotic if there was another lunar eclipse?" someone said.

Gao Lingbo frowned when he heard this.

"If there really is a lunar eclipse, then..." he said slowly, "If moral governance is not practiced, the prime minister will blame others and issue edicts to punish himself."

After reading this, he sat up straight.

"What did Chen Shao say?" he asked.

"Zhongshu stopped the astronomy class report. This matter is not trivial, and we are discussing it in detail at Si Tiantai." A subordinate said, "However, Si Tiantai is also making a lot of noise."

Gao Lingbo frowned.

"They, Si Tiantai, haven't decided yet?" he asked, "Then why was it reported to the police?"

"So is there a lunar eclipse or not?"

Chen Shao looked at Si Tiantai lifting in front of him and asked with a bit of anger.

"No." Si Tiantai said.

"Maybe there will be, but there is no conclusion yet." Some people quickly reminded, "The celestial phenomena cannot be observed by human beings."

You can't say this to death, you have to leave a way out in everything.

Chen Shao naturally knew their tricks and threw the astronomy course papers on several cases.

"Then what's going on?" he shouted.

"These are student Guo Yuan's arbitrary remarks!"

The judges who promoted Si Tiantai said in unison.

"Come to him!" Chen Shao shouted.

The man left in response, and soon ran back in a panic.

"Sir, it's not good, Guo Yuanyueci-kun's prelude is right!"

Chen Shao was furious.

"absurd!"

He walked out quickly.

"Now we are in trouble."

"The trouble is also Guo Yuan's fault."

Everyone in Si Tiantai talked in low voices and hurriedly followed.

In the Qinzheng Hall, the emperor looked at the young man kneeling in front of him, holding a memorial high in his hand. Although he spoke very firmly just now, he could not hide his trembling.

I don't know if I'm nervous or excited.

"Student Guo Yuan has deduced that there will be a lunar eclipse on the fifteenth night. Please tell your majesty to tell the people to lead all officials to respect the sky and protect it."

student?

The emperor was a little surprised. This was probably the origin of the rumors heard by Prince Jin'an when he went to Sitiantai.

If a student predicts a lunar eclipse, how can the officials of Si Tiantai listen to it? They will inevitably quarrel and reprimand him.

Here for an audience, Chen Shao and people from Si Tiantai also came over.

"Your Majesty, the matter of the celestial phenomena has not yet been decided, so please do not listen to this person's words."

"Your Majesty, we at Si Tiantai are making calculations and there is no conclusion yet."

"These are all the words of Guo Yuan."

There was a lot of noise in the palace, and the emperor was absent-minded. They were just talking about whether there was a lunar eclipse or not. He knew all these things, and he was not interested in the arguments of these people.

The emperor looked outside the door from time to time, why hasn't Prince Jin'an returned yet? It's been a day and a night.

Has Mrs. Cheng not finished the deduction yet?

"Your Majesty! Student Guo Yuan is willing to guarantee his life!"

This sound came and the emperor came back to his senses.

What?

He looked into the hall, and everyone else looked at the kneeling Guo Yuan with a bit of surprise.

"On the 15th of this month, the moon begins to wax at the fourth quarter of the ugly hour. If there is any error, the student is willing to have his head dropped to the ground to express gratitude for the sin of disrespecting heaven."

The young student's face was red, his eyes were bright, he raised his hands and raised his fists, and said quickly.

The hall was quiet for a moment, and then there was an uproar.

"Do you think you are Li Chunfeng?" Si Tiantai raised his sleeves and sneered.

Young people are still too energetic.

Having strong Qi and blood is not a bad thing, but if you only have strong Qi and blood, it would be stupid.

"Your Majesty, please punish Guo Yuan for making false statements."

The emperor recovered from his surprise. When the palace was in chaos, some servants walked in quickly. Under the gaze of everyone, they approached the emperor and whispered in his ear.

When the emperor heard this, his brows lit up with joy.

What is it?

Questions in everyone's mind.

"Where are the others?" the emperor asked in a low voice.

"You are not allowed to enter at this time after being stopped by Zhongshu." The chamberlain said in a low voice.

The emperor took pictures of several cases.

"More and more ridiculous!" he shouted.

The officials serving in the palace were overjoyed when they heard this.

"I am guilty," they said in unison.

The emperor looked at them and stretched out his hand.

A chamberlain understood and hurried over to take the memorial from Guo Yuan.

"Okay, in that case, I will allow you to play." The emperor reached out and took it.

Everyone was shocked when this statement came out.

"Your Majesty, how can things about the celestial phenomena be trivial!" Chen Shao took a step forward and said.

"Celestial phenomena are not trivial matters," the emperor said with an indifferent expression, "So, if there is a lunar eclipse, I am willing to admit my punishment and pray to heaven for blessings. If there is no lunar eclipse, then..."

After saying this, he stood up, threw the memorial in his hand on the tables, and looked at Guo Yuan who was kneeling on the ground.

"Punish him."

…………………………………………

The uproar caused by this incident in the court was still heard in the evening.

The emperor put down the memorial and closed his eyes tiredly.

"Your Highness, you have to be careful about the dragon body." The chamberlain said with a bit of sobs, "Let's have some dinner."

The emperor shook his head.

"Your Majesty, please eat as much as you can." The chamberlain knelt down and choked, "Lunch is of no use, and dinner cannot be skipped."

"Did I really do something wrong? Visions of divine punishment appear frequently." The emperor murmured.

Obviously there's been good news recently.

With two magical weapons, my health is much better, and I am pregnant with a dragon fetus. I am doing nothing for my greed, and the troublemaking court officials have been refuted and kicked out. There are frequent good news about the war in the northwest. No matter how I look at it, I am happy.

New Year's Eve.

How come...

"Is there something wrong with the government? I have worked so hard, but God still has to blame..." he murmured.

A solar eclipse first and then a lunar eclipse is a violation of discipline.

I originally thought that someone from Si Tiantai had made a mistake, but...

"What else did Prince Jin'an say?" he asked.
To be continued...
