Emperor Taizong's Growth Plan

Chapter 194 The Effectiveness of the Onmyoji Family
Xiao Cheng held up the teacup in his hand, slightly raised his hand to Xu Su who was sitting opposite, and said with a light smile:
"Recently, the imperial court intends to open a new yamen, called Sitianjian, who is in charge of astronomy, calendar, and weather. Among the hundreds of schools, the school of Yin and Yang is good at this. If Mr. Xusu is interested, he can fill this position!"

"Si Tianjian?"

When Xu Su heard the words, his face revealed a thoughtful look, and he couldn't help but began to think about this government agency.

Judging from the history books only, this Si Tianjian seems to be a little distracted, feels a little unreliable, and the sense of presence is not too high.But in fact, this position is extremely important under the ancient background.

Calculating the calendar and summarizing the weather changes in a year, as a measure of natural timing, can make the people cultivate and produce at the right time.Not to mention the importance of observing the weather.

Even the observation of astrology, which seems to be a bit distracted, can roughly infer the time of solar eclipses, lunar eclipses and other heaven and earth phenomena, so as to minimize the panic of the common people and prevent them from being instigated by villains.

Not to mention, the astrology of this world seems to be able to reflect something...

Although this Sitian seems to have no real power to monitor, he cannot actually spread the influence of his own theory.But Xu Su knew very well that this Sitianjian could serve as a foothold for the Yinyang family above the Yunguo Chaotang.

No matter how the situation in the court changes from now on, the Yin Yang family will always have a way out!
Thinking of this, Xusu lowered his head slightly, and said in a deep voice:
"Being able to be used by the court and benefit the common people with what I have learned is what my family of Yin-Yang seeks, and I am obliged to do so! It's just that my body is so old that it's really hard for me to become an official."

As a ninth-level master, Xu Su is the best in the world. At this time, it would be ridiculous to say that his body is old.

And the reason why he said that was nothing more than to understand Xiao Cheng's thoughts and find an excuse to evade it.

Today in Yunguo, all schools of thought have no roots.In order to spread their own ideas, various schools will definitely compete to show their background and show the young emperor in front of him how great their own schools can play in governing the country.

Since Xiao Cheng intends to use the power of hundreds of schools, he will definitely not reuse any school at this time to make it the only one in the court of Yunguo, because this will undoubtedly discourage the enthusiasm of other schools.

The patriarch of the Yinyang family's inner sect joined the imperial court, even if the one who entered was the Si Tianjian who did not have much real power, how could the rest of the family, as well as the important ministers of the Han and Chinese military forces, figure out Xiao Cheng's thoughts?
Xu Su raised his head slightly, looked at Xiao Cheng with a slight smile on his face, he didn't feel dissatisfied at all because of his refusal, felt a little bit sure, and said again:

"If the nobles don't give up, my Yin Yang family will have talented people who can serve the country!"

Since Xu Su entered Yun Country, he has seen all kinds of things with his own eyes, and he already understands in his heart that under the leadership of the young emperor in front of him, Yun Country will definitely achieve something.It is impossible to say that in the future there will be troops sent out to the south of the sky and the expectation of unifying the world.

Moreover, although the practice methods of the Yin-Yang School and Taoism have taken a different path, they are all based on personal thoughts and understanding of the principles of heaven and earth, and are most sensitive to changes in heaven and earth.During this period of time in Yun Country, through various incidents, Xu Su has come to the conclusion that unknown changes have taken place in this world.

Previously, the secret art of the Yin Yang School "Guan Xin Tong" was able to observe the vision of people.But it is a vision, in fact, it should be called the manifestation of human nature under the echo of heaven and earth.Looking at it is like looking at things in the water, which is a little illusory.

But what Xu Su saw in Yunguo, whether it was the young emperor in front of him, or the visions on the heads of sages like Sima Hui and Pang Degong, seemed more real, as if something supernatural appeared, and there were even signs of solidification.

In Zhongqing City, there are rumors that Xiao Cheng and Hui Qi are the real dragon emperor and the incarnate Buddha.

And Sang Pan said that in the court of Yunguo, there are literati officials who don't understand martial arts, who can suddenly mobilize the power of heaven and earth to drive back thousands of people.The Yunguo army rushed to the battle to kill the enemy, with a fierce killing spirit, condensed into the shape of an unformed beast, showing supernatural powers, helping the army resist the rain of arrows.

Since Xu Su came to Yunguo, he also experienced it firsthand. In the dark, it seemed that the shackles placed on him by the heaven and the earth were gradually loosening.The realm bottleneck that has been trapped for more than ten years, recently has a faint premonition that it is about to break through.

Thinking that I was on Wuling Mountain back then, my mind suddenly moved, and I was attracted by it, and I had the urge to come to Tiannan in person.Xu Su even concluded that the various changes between today and the earth only started after the young emperor ascended the throne!

Xu Su doesn't understand the promotion of the world's personality, but he knows that the opportunity of the world's great change is right in front of him, how can his Yin Yang family miss it?

Seeing Xu Su nodding his head in agreement, Xiao Cheng showed a smile on his face, and said:
"Okay, I am very happy to have a sage from the Yin Yang family work for me!"

After Xu Su's promise, when the Yin-Yang family sends disciples here again, there will be more than just two or three big cats and kittens.

And just like the herd effect, how could the other schools of thought be willing to lag behind when they saw that the Yin-Yang family was here for real?
It can be foreseen that the imperial examinations held in Yunguo this year will inevitably harvest more talents from hundreds of schools.

In Tingwei's mansion, after Song Ci heard the news of Rouning's disappearance, she immediately showed remorse and turned around to leave.But before he took a few steps, he suddenly stopped and stood on the spot, muttering:
"Let's be clear first, why did it disappear?"

The Dongchang fans who came to report heard the words and said quickly:

"The brother at the State Guesthouse said that under the treatment of the imperial doctor these days, Empress Rouning's body is gradually recovering. Today, Empress Do not know where she heard that there is a grand ceremony held in the city during the Lantern Festival, so she wants to go out to relax. General Nan, and Guo Duyi's envoy continued to dissuade Di Ji, but they couldn't change Di Ji's mind. In the end, King Qi also spoke to help persuade, and the two adults had no choice but to reluctantly agree..."

Song Ci's face was ugly, and he said:

"Then after coming out, Di Ji disappeared!"

"Yes, it is……"

Hearing this, Song Ci gritted his teeth, raised his legs and walked away, ordering:

"Strictly investigate the Xia Kingdom mission, and see that there are no traces of people in the mission. Also, quickly go to the palace to ask for an order, asking His Majesty to close the four gates, dispatch the forbidden army, patrol battalion, and city defense battalion, and search the city!"

Yan Song on the side was stunned, couldn't help but followed, and said in a low voice:
"My lord, there is no need to be like this. Today's Lantern Festival is celebrated, and all the people in the city come out to play. If there is a big commotion and it spreads, it will lose the dignity of the country!"

What Yan Song meant was that anyway, the missing Emperor Ji Rou Ning was probably a substitute that King Qi had found for his sister.

Even if a substitute dies, it won't hurt much.Afterwards, as long as you have a showdown with King Qi and ask him to hand over the real Empress Rouning, this matter can be completely regarded as never happened.

If there is a big commotion, people will know that Emperor Rou Ning and Concubine Yun have disappeared suddenly, who knows what kind of words will come out.

Hai Rui heard this, looked at Yan Song's appearance, frowned tightly, looked at Yan Song with a little disgust, and said:

"Not to mention, this is a human life! Let's just say that the identity she is carrying at this time is that she cannot be lost."

Yan Song choked on Hai Rui's harsh words.

Song Ci didn't stop on his feet, walked quickly, and said:

"That's right, no matter who she is, but the identity she is carrying now is the most important thing! King Qi, and the forces who are doing it secretly, don't care who she is. As long as outsiders recognize her identity , I absolutely must use this identity to make a fuss!"

Although I don't know what they want to do, it's obviously not a good thing.

Upon hearing this, Yan Song nodded in approval.

Then he reacted suddenly, his feet stagnated, and he almost tripped over himself, and exclaimed in his mouth:
"King Qi? What will King Qi do with her..."

Seeing Yan Song's surprised look, Hai Rui couldn't help giving him a disdainful look.

At this time, Yan Song recalled what Song Ci said just now in his mind, and then he reacted abruptly.

No wonder this King Qi dared to play the trick of "Li Daitao stiff" and find someone to pretend to be Rouning Emperor Ji, not afraid of revealing his secrets later.Cooperating with him, he never thought that this fake Empress Rou Ning would be able to enter the harem of Yun Kingdom smoothly.

From the very beginning, there was only one ending for Emperor Ji Rou Ning, and that was "death"! ——
When Xiao Cheng came out of Lumen Academy and returned to Zhongqing City, the sky had already gradually darkened.

At this time, Zhongqing City became more and more lively.

The whole city is decorated with lights and festoons.All kinds of lamps are lit up, radiant and colorful, and the street market is as bright as day.On the long street of tens of miles, there was a lot of people's voices and a constant stream.The sound of hawking along the street is endless, and it is very lively.

Although Yun Kingdom has been fighting non-stop over the years.But there are very few battles that really require the use of the power of the whole country. In addition, the former grand master Wang Xiao led the army, and he was always victorious and undefeated.

Therefore, the folks of the Yun Kingdom did not suffer from poor livelihood due to successive years of wars, and the people were still prosperous.Today's Lantern Festival is celebrated, and the people celebrate the festive season, showing the scene of prosperity.

A group of Forbidden Army masters looked at the crowded crowd, feeling bitter in their hearts, but they could only bite the bullet and step forward, desperately protecting Xiao Cheng in the middle.

Xiao Cheng was in a very good mood at this time, looked up at the various lanterns on the street with great interest, suddenly remembered Aoshan in the Song Dynasty, and smiled to Feng Bao beside him:

"Next year, the inner treasury can fund some lanterns and pile them up into mountains for the people to visit. It can be regarded as having fun with the people!"

Feng Bao cautiously stood in front of Xiao Cheng, with a slightly bitter face, and said in a low voice:

"Okay, Your Majesty, let's go back quickly!"

At this time, Xiao Cheng's interest was really up, and instead he gave birth to a playful heart, waved his hands and said:

"No hurry, no hurry. By the way, don't call me that outside the palace! Let them not be too nervous, it will be more eye-catching!"

In fact, Xiao Cheng really wanted to tell the masters of the Forbidden Army around him that if he really met an assassin, he might not know who would protect whom.But thinking that it was their job after all, Xiao Cheng didn't want to hit him too hard.

Feng Bao and a group of masters of the Forbidden Army, seeing Xiao Cheng's interest, made his face even more bitter.

Even though they all know that although His Majesty is young, his martial arts are already the best in the world.But here is the responsibility, if you really meet assassins, and they haven't played any role yet, why should you support them?

His Majesty said so, so naturally no one dared to take away his elegance, so he had to cheer up and be vigilant of the crowd around him.

The national festivals of Yunguo all follow the customs and traditions of the Central Plains, and the custom of hanging lanterns on the Lantern Festival is also a copy of the Central Plains tradition.Only on the main street, many boys and girls wearing minority costumes come and go to play, which shows some characteristics of Yunguo.

At this time, not far from Xiao Cheng, there was a sudden commotion among the crowd.

A few cold-faced men appeared from nowhere and kept pushing and shoving among the crowd, as if they were looking for someone.

Such a big move by these people naturally attracted the attention of the surrounding Forbidden Army masters.

Seeing these cold-faced men rushing towards Xiao Cheng, a master of the Forbidden Army immediately stepped forward, stopped these men, and said in a deep voice:
"Everyone, don't offend my noble family!"

The stopped cold-faced man frowned, but he was unwilling to cause trouble in Zhongqing City. He glanced in Xiao Cheng's direction, and after confirming that there was no one he was looking for, he backed away slightly, expressing no intention of offending.

"This way!"

Suddenly, a loud shout startled the group of cold-faced men, and they looked towards the place where the sound came from.

Then he saw a figure wearing a white veiled hat covering his face, with a rectangular box on his back, suddenly squeezed into the crowd, and fled towards the distance.

Several cold-faced men narrowed their eyes, squeezed away from the crowd without saying a word, and chased after the person in the direction he left.

Looking at this scene, Xiao Cheng frowned slightly.

A master of the Forbidden Army came to Xiao Cheng's side and said in a low voice:
"Your Majesty, my lord, this subordinate has just paid attention. Judging by the number of paths revealed by those people walking, they are definitely masters in the army!"

Feng Bao noticed Xiao Cheng's expression, and hurriedly said:

"Young master, do you want to send someone to have a look?"

Xiao Cheng pondered for a moment, and exhorted:

"Take down both sides, and then send them to Jingzhao Mansion for disposal! There are many people here, be careful not to startle the crowd!"

Although I don't know what kind of disputes those people have, but it is not easy to involve the masters in the military.

The most important thing is that in today's city, countless people go out to celebrate the festive season and visit the lantern festival with their families.There are so many people, let those people act, if there is any trouble, it is better to take it directly and send it to the government.

Hearing Xiao Cheng's order, the masters of the Forbidden Army immediately regained their spirits.

Ever since they were transferred from various parts of the army to protect His Majesty, these Forbidden Army masters have never felt that they are of any use. After all, His Majesty can directly beat a group of them now.Now that the task finally came, these people suddenly became excited.

Immediately, they left a few colleagues behind to protect Xiao Cheng, and the rest of the Forbidden Army masters chased after them in the direction they left.
