Chapter 45 Opportunities(2/2)
"No, I just said that Mrs. Cheng also speculated that there would be a lunar eclipse." The waiter said in a low voice.
So is this lunar eclipse good or bad?
Do you even need to ask? Of course it is fierce.
The emperor sighed in his heart again.
"Why don't you call Mrs. Cheng to ask?" the chamberlain said.
The emperor shook his head.
"I've already asked, what else do I need to ask? She's not the only one who can figure it out." He said, "If a student can figure it out, there are certainly people in the world who can figure it out. Instead of looking for her over and over again, I
Asking, seems stingy and timid, it is better to make a bet with this student and settle down calmly."
The waiter nodded.
"Your Majesty." He hesitated and couldn't help but say, "Does this student recognize Mrs. Cheng..."
The emperor smiled.
"I have thought about this too, and have asked the Imperial City Secretary to check it out." He said, "This Guo Yuan is not from the capital. Back then, his father revised the calendar and got Yinrong. At the age of six, he became an astronomical official. Later, his father died early.
After his death, he had no one to discipline him. When he became an adult, he came to Beijing to become a student in Si Tiantai. It has been three years now. He has always been unknown in Si Tiantai. He is very interested in astronomical tests. He has not yet recognized his colleagues in Si Tiantai, and even more
Forget about being friends with Mrs. Cheng."
At this he smiled.
"When Mrs. Cheng set off the fireworks, he was guarding the armillary sphere and did not see the fireworks."
So I didn't receive enlightenment like Li Mao.
The chamberlain laughed, and the emperor could still joke, which showed that he was not in such a bad mood.
"It seems that it is not difficult to deduce celestial phenomena." He said with a smile, "It turns out that besides Mrs. Cheng, others can do it."
Yes, besides Mrs. Cheng, there are also such talents in his court.
The emperor was slightly proud.
"Ms. Cheng is also a human being, not a fairy." He smiled.
But he smiled and then sighed.
In any case, a solar eclipse followed by a lunar eclipse is not a glorious thing after all. Just wait, after the fifteenth day, there will be chaos and noise again. According to the custom, the emperor will be required to cultivate his virtue and punish him with an edict.
Where is the sin? Where is the sin?
Not willing to give in, not willing to give in!
The emperor raised his hand and pushed aside the pen and paper on the desk, and closed his eyes again.
Although the emperor did not summon Mrs. Cheng, it does not mean that everyone will not think more about it.
"The emperor is never one to make decisions quickly."
Chen Shao sat in Old Mrs. Chen's house in the night and said.
"This time he actually responded to a student's ridiculous talk of gambling on his life. It shows that he must be fully confident in his heart."
Old Mrs. Chen nodded.
"Although you blocked His Majesty from summoning Mrs. Cheng, you can't block others." He smiled.
Chen Shao nodded and poured tea.
"It seems that there is really a lunar eclipse this time." He said, "A lunar eclipse is inherently unlucky, and there was a solar eclipse before, which is even more unlucky."
"The sun is the yang essence. If you keep the truth, you will not lose. It is the image of the king." Old Mrs. Chen said, "The sun and the moon are eclipsing, and there are those who are improper in Meiji."
Chen Shao offered tea to Mrs. Chen, his expression slightly paused.
"There are mistakes in government affairs, and the celestial phenomena are warning. Your Majesty should meditate and practice virtue, and make major changes to eliminate disasters." He suddenly said, "This is also an opportunity."
Old Mrs. Chen took the tea and smiled slightly.
…………………………………….
"It turns out that His Majesty summoned Mrs. Cheng that day for this reason."
Gao Lingbo said.
"Did that student do it alone, or did Mrs. Cheng help from behind?"
The singer in the room has already left, and the staff have dispersed.
"It has been investigated and it was the student who did it." An aide said, "There was a quarrel in Sitiantai at that time. It must have reached His Majesty's ears, so His Majesty summoned Mrs. Cheng to ask, but she was stopped, so she
I asked Prince Jin'an to ask, and I think Mrs. Cheng also said yes, so Your Majesty agreed to the student Guo Yuan's request in the palace."
Gao Lingbo nodded and felt relieved.
"I thought that woman could control the eclipses of the sun and the moon through the sky." He laughed.
The staff laughed.
"How can such a thing happen?" they all said.
"In this case, there is indeed a lunar eclipse." After a moment of laughter, a staff member said, "Then this consecutive eclipse of the sun and moon is a very bad omen."
"So, if there is something wrong with the government, you have to look for the problem carefully and ask all the officials to listen to their opinions." Gao Lingbo smiled and raised the golden cup, "This is also an opportunity."
The people in the room looked at each other, laughed and raised their wine bowls.
