After transmigrating into a stepmother, I transformed my whole family to work on farming

Chapter 798 Building momentum
evening.

Liu Ji was holding a handwritten copy of "Illustrations of Strange Phenomena in Past Dynasties" borrowed from the Imperial College Library.

I returned home in a daze.

Noticing his strangeness, Qin Yao asked suspiciously, "What's wrong with you?"

I picked up the book he was holding in his hand and flipped through a few pages. It was just some strange stories with very simple and abstract illustrations.

Qin Yao knew who wrote this familiar sloppy handwriting at a glance.

"What's wrong? Have you lost your soul from copying books?" Qin Yao smiled jokingly and stuffed the book back into Liu Ji's arms.

Unexpectedly, the man suddenly grabbed her hand and pulled her aside where there was no one.

Liu Ji suppressed his excitement and whispered, "Madam, I discovered a big secret!"

Qin Yao motioned for him to continue.

Liu Ji suddenly stopped talking.

"Do you want to die while you're still talking?" Qin Yao narrowed her eyes dangerously and grabbed Liu Ji's hand, exerting force.

Liu Ji cried out in pain, as if he had just come to his senses.

"Did I say anything?" he asked in surprise.

Qin Yao nodded, "You said you discovered a big secret, what secret is it?"

"No!" Liu Ji slapped his head, "I must have been so fascinated by this strange story that I was in a trance and couldn't extricate myself from it."

After saying that, he chuckled a few times, turned around and rushed into the main hall.

It suddenly occurred to him that this should not be known to his wife.

Otherwise, there will be no surprise after it is done.

Fortunately, fortunately, fortunately my mind suddenly came to its senses and I didn’t tell anyone.

Awang had already put the food on the table and was waiting for Liu Ji, the last person to return home, to come back before preparing to eat.

"Madam, dinner is ready!" Awang called out to the door.

Qin Yao stood there for a while before walking into the hall. Her eyes fell on Liu Ji, who was pretending to be busy. She had no idea what he was up to.

My hands are itching and I want to beat someone up.

Qin Yao hated the Riddler the most, but because everyone was at home at the moment, she did not immediately deal with Liu Ji who dared to play tricks on her.

But after dinner, everyone in the hall went about their business. Liu Ji was about to escape when a strong wind suddenly blew in his direction, and with a loud "bang", the door closed tightly.

Liu Ji didn't react quickly enough and his nose hit the door panel. Fortunately he didn't faint from the pain.

He covered his nose, squatted down in pain, and stars appeared in his eyes.

Qin Yao was still sitting in the hall, sneering: "You don't know your own limits."

Pressed to ask: "Tell me, what is the secret!"

How could Liu Ji dare to hide it at this time?

Sobbing, he recounted to Qin Yao word for word the conversation he had heard in the library today.

"Do you suspect that the Imperial Master is preparing to build momentum for Xu Wenqing's ascension to the throne?" Qin Yao asked.

Liu Ji nodded, and the stars in his eyes improved a lot. He stood up from the ground, covering his nose, and leaned his back against the door, ready to escape at any time.

Sure enough, the next second Qin Yao asked sharply: "What do you want to do?"

Seeing that his eyes were obviously weak, Qin Yao slammed the table and warned, "You'd better not cause me any trouble."

"My lady, you think too highly of me. How dare I do that?"

Liu Ji was still aggrieved, and said in a muffled voice: "Besides, even if I am a mere Jinshi and want to do something, I can't do it."

Qin Yao looked at him and her voice suddenly rose: "What else do you want to do?"

Liu Ji really wanted to sew his mouth shut, and waved his hands hastily: "No, no, absolutely not."

He raised his hand and swore, and Qin Yao then withdrew her terrifying gaze.

He waved his hand, signaling him to get lost.

But Liu Ji didn't leave.

Qiqi Aiai came forward, took out the vision map, and asked curiously:

"My lady, what do you think they want this strange map for? Could it be that Si Kongjian is so advanced in Taoism that he can control the celestial phenomena?"

Qin Yao frowned. Controlling the celestial phenomena was something that people today definitely couldn't do.

But prediction is possible.

Thinking of this, Qin Yao stood up, walked outside, and looked up at the sky.

There is a crescent moon in the sky, surrounded by a colorful halo.

Survival is difficult in the end times and disasters occur frequently. Ordinary people have also summed up certain signs of disasters and take precautions and prepare in advance.

Qin Yao saw that the moon tonight was unusual and guessed, "Tomorrow or the day after tomorrow, there may be unusual celestial phenomena."

Liu Ji was shocked. "Is this true? Madam, can you observe the stars and predict the moon?"

Qin Yao: "Believe it or not."

Turn around and go back to the room.

Only Liu Ji was left standing there, looking at the crescent moon in the sky.

But after looking at it for a long time, I still couldn't figure it out, so I gave up and went back to my room to sleep.

The next evening.

The originally clear and cloudless sky was suddenly covered with large patches of red clouds.

In a blink of an eye, it became an overwhelming force, covering most of Kyoto City, and the sky seemed to be on fire.

When the people saw this unusual sight, they all stopped and looked up.

I don't know if I don't see it, I'm startled when I see it.

A red horse appeared.

Suddenly, a man got on the horse and the horse ran away with him.

After a while, the big dog came, suddenly growing horns, with fangs and a big mouth, howling.

There were also goats and roosters, so many of them that people were in a trance for a moment.

The golden light was so blinding that I had to rub my eyes before I could see clearly.

But when I rubbed my eyes and looked again, two large symmetrical wings suddenly flapped up.

At this time, someone in the crowd exclaimed: "It's a phoenix, a pair of phoenixes!"

Someone fell to his knees.

Then a large group of people knelt down.

Some people prayed devoutly, some were terrified, and some were shouting, "It's gone! It's gone again!"

Everyone looked up and saw that the large red cloud suddenly darkened.

Finally, there was only a gray sky.

This time there were exclamations and shouts one after another.

"Two phoenixes appeared. This is a miracle!"

The Imperial Master appeared in the crowd with a serious look on his face. He raised his hand and calculated, his eyes suddenly widened, and he said in a loud voice:
"This is the appearance of two phoenixes. The phoenix refers to the girl, which indicates that the Virgin Mary will appear and protect the dynasty. This is a good omen!"

The people were in an uproar, and those who had already knelt down immediately kowtowed three times to show their respect.

Qin Yao, who witnessed the whole process at the door of the hair salon, twitched her lips.

He explained to Liu Ji and others who were stunned beside him:

"It's just a fire cloud, a natural phenomenon, actually a sunset glow."

Everyone was still a little dazed and nodded vaguely to show that they had learned something new.

Another day passed.

Suddenly, a soldier outside the city rode into the city on horseback, carrying a large bamboo basket.

As he ran toward the Ziwei Palace, he shouted along the street: "Wang Xi, a farmer from the suburbs, presents auspicious signs!"

Someone stood on tiptoe to look curiously and found a super big golden pumpkin in the bamboo basket.

Melons appear in winter and they are golden in color. If this isn’t a good omen, then what is?
Someone in the street was shouting again, saying that auspicious signs had appeared in the world, and that it was a gift from heaven that moved the Queen Mother of Heaven and enabled her to achieve remarkable political achievements.

The Queen Mother of Heaven was very happy about the auspicious sign, so she ordered the imperial kitchen to cook the golden pumpkin into a dish and invited all officials to a golden pumpkin banquet.

Qin Yao crossed her arms and thought for a moment, "I think the soldier offering auspiciousness looks familiar."

Liu Ji slapped his head and said, "I remember now, it was that guy Sun Jiang!"
