Song Yu nodded lightly and asked with interest: "What do you think of my aura? Are there any disasters recently?"
Taoist Shuilian looked troubled and said: "My lord brings great fortune to all peoples. As long as the rule does not fall, there will be no disasters"
"As for disasters and calamities, in troubled times, heaven's plans are confused, and heaven assigns great responsibilities to these people to train their masters. However, the subordinates' moral conduct is shallow, and they really dare not speculate on God's will!"
Song Yu felt a little regretful after hearing this. This woman still couldn't see the details and discover his disaster, let alone resolve it. There was nothing he could do at this time, so he said: "Since you have been appointed, you should take office as soon as possible. The people of Xin'an, disturbed by evil spirits, are all waiting eagerly for it!"
"The secret method of my pulse requires careful observation of the Qi count, and you have to get close to the Dragon Qi!" Shuilian Taoist said with a slightly red face.
After saying that, Yingying bowed down, saluted and went out.
Song Yu looked at her back with a playful smile on her lips.
¡¡
Linjiang Mansion, Fucheng, early morning.
Wu Qi¡¯s General Mansion was naturally taken over and used by the Li family, who moved in a few months ago.
At this time, in Li Xun¡¯s room.
"Huhhuh" Although Li Xun is already forty, he has always taken good care of himself. His face is rosy and there is no wrinkle. However, at this time, cold sweat was pouring down his face, and big beads of sweat rolled down, but he didn't care. Touching his neck, a look of fear appeared on his face.
Looking around, he was still in bed, his wife was sleeping soundly beside him.
"Here comes someone!" Li Xun calmed down and shouted.
"Master!" A maid came out of the cubicle with bright eyes and white teeth. The Li family had very strict upbringings. These maids had been raised for several generations. She lowered her head and turned a blind eye to Li Xun's strange behavior.
"Bring the hot water and a cup of soothing tea!" Li Xun ordered.
"Yes!" The maid responded in a low voice and walked out. Not long after, she brought the other two maids with them, bringing copper basins, towels, and cups to serve him.
"Master?" There was quite a commotion. The wife on the side woke up and asked.
"I'm fine, I'm just a little uneasy. You're not in good health, so you should rest more and recuperate" Li Xun comforted.
After washing up, Li Xun had a few snacks and then ordered: "Call the young master to come to the study!"
Li Xun's study has always been a place for discussing important matters. Although there are several young sons, they can't discuss the matter. This young master naturally refers to Li Rubi. The servants also knew it and went to inform him immediately.
Li Rubi heard the news as soon as he got up. He didn't need to go early. He changed into formal clothes and hurried to the study.
At this time, there was only Li Xun in the study room, with a solemn expression.
Li Rubi knelt down and said, "I'm humbled to say hello to you, sir!" This is official etiquette. The Li family received the imperial edict and appointed Li Xun as the prefect of Linjiang Prefecture, and Li Rubi as the sixth grade Linjiang Prefecture garrison and in charge of the government soldiers.
"When I see the superior, I feel proud to salute."
Afterwards, he stood up, bowed again, and said, "My son wishes to greet my father. How is your father?" But he came as a son. Li Rubi knew his father's temperament and was strict in character, which pleased Li Xun greatly.
Sure enough, Li Xun nodded and said: "Put public affairs first, then private affairs, yes, yes!" He expressed his approval.
Li Rubi was overjoyed. The etiquette and laws in this world were very strict. If he did not like Li Xun, there would be difficulties in the inheritance. Therefore, he did not dare to neglect.
But just for a moment, Li Xun's face turned cloudy and he said, "Do you know why my father called you?"
Li Rubi shook his head: "I don't know, my father, please tell me!"
"My Li family has been inherited for hundreds of years. Your great-grandfather has been an official for many years. In the end, he even became a third-rank official. He is well-known among the people. He could have been admitted to my family's ancestral hall. With his luck and reputation, he would have secured the blessings of the Li family and could be a favor to his descendants. In the future, , no matter the county magistrate or the noble family, there is hope"
Li Rubi looked gloomy and continued: "However, the imperial court issued a decree that my great-grandfather entered the ancestral hall and the royal blessed land, which ended my family's hope"
The Li family is only at the county level. For the great-grandfather of the Li family to be a third-grade official, fate and luck are indispensable, and he has to make extraordinary achievements. After this, the Li family also devoted their efforts.
Originally, if the great-grandfather of the Li family was allowed to enter the ancestral hall, it would definitely bless future generations. It was certain that the Li family would be promoted to the county seat. It's a pity that the royal family wants to seize luck to support the blessed land and has made a decree. If the Li family is a powerful figure in the county, they can still fight for a while. At the worst, there is compensation.
But the Li family was only a large family, and in order to support their superiors, they spent a lot of money and could not resist. In the end, they had no choice but to accept the order.
After this incident, the Li family's vitality was severely damaged, and they almost fell down the ranks and became a first-rate rural tycoon. This incident also became a laughing stock in the circle of aristocratic families.
Li ?His face was ferocious: "My grandfather worked hard for Da Gan and became ill from overwork, so he died young. Who knew that the royal family could be so cold and cold Hehe Do you really think that this world belongs to his Zhao family, and you can take whatever you want without resisting?"
Li Rubi nodded. This was a big hatred of the Li family. Although he did not reveal it publicly, he was still a loyal minister and filial son on the surface, but secretly, it was passed down by word of mouth among the family heads. He is the legitimate heir, and he was also told that if his father brings up old matters again today, it must be important, so he should listen carefully.
"Alas! From then on, my Li family has been separated from the imperial court. Originally, this was nothing. Many aristocratic families have been wronged and cannot bear it anymore. They will just come out the same."
"My father was a director at the time, and he didn't do anything else. He just moved his family to Wuzhou, thinking about leaving that sad place."
"Unexpectedly, it was a coincidence and God's will. Your grandfather was very blessed in his political career. He got a map. After searching according to the map, he found a treasure land. The feng shui is very good and it is connected to the dragon vein" Li Xun's face turned bright when he said this. Red, energetic.
Li Rubi listened carefully, he knew all this vaguely. What comes next is the point.
"This dragon vein master emerged three generations later, and the Li family settled in Wu land to prepare for a rainy day. Now it happened to be passed to you, and the world is in chaos You were born to answer the fate, I, the Li family, are hidden dragons!"
"This" Li Rubi felt like he was struck by lightning, and his chest felt hot again. He didn't expect that it would be like this.
He knelt down in a hurry: "My child has little knowledge and does not dare to take on such a big responsibility"
Li Xun waved his hand: "Do you know why I have been very strict with you since you were a child? Just for today! When I execute the imperial edict, I will take you along and ask for the military position of defense, and the same is true!"
Li Rubi's face turned red, and there was a strange look in his eyes: "My son will carry forward the Li family and live up to his father's trust"
Li Xun breathed a sigh of relief and said, "This way, as a father, I feel at ease. Even if I go at any time, I don't have to worry" Li Xun seemed to have put down his heavy burden and spoke warmly.
Li Rubi was shocked: "My father is a hundred years old. You must not say that. There will be great blessings to enjoy in the future!"
Li Xun shook his head: "The common sense of life and death, I don't hold back I dreamed about what happened when I was a child last night. Your grandfather came to hold my hand. I also saw the blood on the battlefield. A young general rushed towards me and took my head. It seemed that Our ancestors warned us that we will die soon"
In this world, people are very reverent towards ghosts and gods, and it is even more different when meeting their ancestors.
Li Rubi¡¯s face turned pale and he choked as he said: ¡°It¡¯s just a dream that can be deciphered¡±
After a pause, an idea flashed: "This matter needs to be resolved by an expert. Yu Heng, the Taoist priest of Baiyun Temple, is a Taoist scholar. He is in the city now and is quite close to my family. I will invite him right away." Come and interpret your father¡¯s dream!¡±
"Idiot, why bother?" Li Xun said with a smile, but did not explicitly refuse. Seeing this, Li Rubi felt reassured and left.
Soon, Yuheng arrived.
Li Rubi personally led him to the study, saluted solemnly, and said, "Now that my father is in serious trouble, please ask the Taoist priest to save him!"
Yu Heng turned sideways, not daring to accept Qianlong's gift. The chief inspector said: "Your Majesty has a good reputation for fighting against rebels, and he governs with lenient methods. He has benefited tens of thousands of people. He is a man of great merit. I am a poor man who worships heaven." Respect your orders and do your best.¡±
"That's good! That's good!" Li Rubi stepped aside.
Yu Heng¡¯s expression was cautious. In Qianlong¡¯s house, encountering this kind of thing is naturally not a trivial matter. He might even ask the master to come: ¡°I wonder what happened to the magistrate?¡±
In front of outsiders, Li Xun still regained his former demeanor and was very dignified, saying: "It's not a big deal, I just have a dream that needs a Taoist priest to interpret"
Then, he told what happened last night.
The more Yu Heng listened, the heavier his expression became. He specifically asked about the appearance of the young general.
After pondering for a moment, he slowly said: "This is the ancestor's warning, foretelling that the Li family will be in great trouble in the future. The key lies in the young general. You must know that even if disaster strikes from heaven, you must have something to rely on." As long as you cut off the source of your actions, the disaster will be like water without a source and a tree without roots. You can survive it safely. From then on, everything will be smooth sailing, which is beyond words"
Yu Heng¡¯s voice was as clear as jade. Li Xun and Li Rubi listened carefully. They waited until the last sentence, and it even meant something. They couldn¡¯t help but look at each other and make guesses.
"Who is that thief?" Li Rubi came out and asked.
"I don't know, but I can give you a divination!" Yu Heng asked for instructions.
After Li Xun agreed, Yu Heng took out three copper coins from his sleeve.
These three copper coins are simple in style, with a faint patina, and they look like extraordinary objects.
Yu Heng threw three copper coins into the air, and thenWith a pinch, Li Rubi caught the copper coins with lightning speed. Li Rubi saw a flash of white light, and the three coins fell into Yu Heng's hands, arranged faintly into a pattern.
Yu Heng looked at it carefully and reported: "This person is really harmful to you and the Li family. In terms of location, he should be southeast of Linjiang."
Southeast of Linjiang Prefecture is Xin'an Prefecture.
Li Xun and Li Rubi looked at each other and blurted out: "Song Yu!"
Song Yu¡¯s self-proclaimed military governor should not be underestimated. He also falsely conveyed the imperial edict and borrowed the momentum of the Li family¡¯s imperial edict. His scheming and martial arts were extraordinary. Li Xun would not underestimate him, so he sent out detailed agents early to find out the news.
In his hand, there is naturally an image of Song Yu's appearance, as well as a description.
"It's just that in ancient times, due to limited paper materials and meticulous craftsmanship, it was rare to find half or six similarities between them. Li Xun and Li Rubi couldn't remember them at the moment.
At this time, Yu Heng reminded me that in terms of strength, only Song Yu, who controlled the entire government, could pose a threat to the Li family in Linjiang.
Li Rubi said bitterly: "When my son gathers all his troops, he will kill this beast for his father!"
