Zhang Shan was about to leave, but Li Yi stopped and said, "Director Zhang, since you know that this matter is of great importance, and it is difficult to arrange everything in a hurry, why don't you think of another way?"

While Zhang Shan was not making any claims, he heard Li Yi's words and knew that there must be a deep meaning in his words, so he stayed behind and said: "Master Li, Zhang Shan is stupid, I hope Master Li will not hesitate to enlighten me!"

Li Yi looked around and said in a low voice: "Director Zhang, the young general has heard that Dingzhou produces high-quality gold sand. Now Feng Guiren's brother, Changli King Feng Xifeng is serving as the governor of Dingzhou, why doesn't Chief Zhang go to ask for help?"

Zhang Shan sighed fiercely, thanked him repeatedly, and left in a hurry.Zhang Shan sent his confidantes to Dingzhou in a hurry six hundred miles away, and rushed to Dingzhou in the starry night to present a secret letter to Feng Xi, the governor of Dingzhou.

Feng Xi wrote back that he had already prepared tens of tons of fine gold sand, and if Manager Zhang needed it, he could offer it quietly.However, Jinsha is a tribute from the royal family, so we have to ask Director Zhang to make up his mind on how to transfer it to Chensha in the palace.

How dozens of loads of gold sand were quietly transported into the palace without making people suspicious, this is tantamount to picking stars from the sky, and Zhang Shan is worried.

Just when Zhang Shan was in trouble, Feng Yuan had secretly summoned Gao Yun into the palace.Feng Yuan said to Gao Yun: "My lord Gao, there is no one in the court who can stand shoulder to shoulder with my lord Gao in the matter of astronomy and calendar, and the strange door. I will cast a golden man with my hands in one month. I am terrified in my heart, and I want to pray to heaven and earth. I pray for the success of the hand-casting man, and hope that Mr. Gao will help him."

Gao Yun said: "Your Majesty, it is rare for Gao Yun to escape from the prison of national history. It is all due to your Majesty's advice to His Highness the Crown Prince. Gao Yun's body is broken, but it is not enough to repay your great kindness. Your Majesty's hand-made gold man will surely succeed. For my Queen Wei, hereby It’s my great Wei’s blessing! Your Majesty doesn’t mention it, Gao Yun also has this intention, and wants to build an altar to pray to the gods, so that your Majesty can succeed!”

Feng Yuan smiled and said: "If my lord Gao personally set up an altar to pray for blessings, I will feel at ease! Back then, I had no chance to try the Taoist techniques taught by my lord Gao. Now I follow the method of my lord Gao, I found a place in the palace and wanted to set up an altar to offer sacrifices to heaven and earth, what does Master Gao think?"

Gao Yun was originally a clever person. Hearing Feng Yuan's words, although he seemed to ask for advice, it was actually an order!Therefore, Gao Yun immediately said: "My lady is intelligent, rare in ancient and modern times! Although Gao Yun taught my lady the Taoist art, but she is old and her eyesight is dim. I am afraid that the location of the altar will be wrong and the gods will be angered. Then Gao Yun will be the Great Wei. The guilty minister too!"

"The technique of the empress, learned from Gao Yun, is far superior to Gao Yun. Since the empress has found the altar site, her eyes must be on Gao Yun. I don't know where the empress wants to build the altar? Gao Yun has it, and I should invite the emperor in the name of a minister. And for it!"

Feng Yuan smiled and said: "Master Gao is an important minister of our court, but the emperor will not allow anything to be played! Mr. Gao, I believe that there is an empty space next to the casting mansion in the palace, which is the source of blessings. We will build an altar here. The gods will bless this palace!"

Gao Yun praised and said: "Your Majesty, Gao Yun also has this intention. Madam, Gao Yun bids farewell, and I will invite the emperor to report this matter to the emperor in the future!"

Feng Yuan said indifferently: "Master Gao, the place of prayer in this palace lies in the harem. According to the law of our dynasty, courtiers and relatives cannot enter the palace privately without the holy will. I wonder who Master Gao wants to recommend to supervise the construction of the altar?"

Although Gao Yun didn't know Feng Yuan's true intentions, he also knew that the matter was of great importance, and he didn't dare to annoy Feng Guiren.So Gao Yun replied without hesitation: "My lady, Gao Yun is dull, and I have been away from the court for a long time. I am afraid that I may make mistakes in employing people. I don't know what my lady can do?"

Feng Yuan said slowly: "My lord, it is very inconvenient for foreign relatives to enter and leave the palace. Feng Xi, the governor of Dingzhou, is the elder brother of the palace and a relative of the emperor. He can be ordered to recruit craftsmen for construction; the internal affairs can be handled by Zhang Shan, the head of the harem. Mr. Gao, I am a woman, so it is not convenient to talk about the affairs of the court. How to deal with it should be decided by Mr. Gao! Mr. Gao, I am tired, please leave!"

Gao Yun understood in his heart, and Xinxin said goodbye to Feng Yuan.

On the second day in the court hall, Gao Yun said: "Your Majesty, Gao Yun has something to play! Since the founding of the Great Wei, all the people who cast gold by hand have chosen the head of the harem. The empress is virtuous, and it is my great Wei's fortune. Minister Gao Yun thought that if one chooses a virtuous queen, one must pray to heaven. If the fortune of our Great Wei Dynasty is prosperous, God will help the queen to cast a golden man in one fell swoop! Therefore, Gao Yun begged the emperor to set up an altar to sacrifice to heaven, and pray to God that my great Wei wants to stand. Regarding the matter of the queen, what is the unknown holy will?"

When Emperor Wencheng Tuoba Jun heard the words, Longyan was overjoyed, and praised: "Gao Taifu's words are very kind, and I agree with them. Gao Taifu is proficient in magic, but has he ever prayed to God to set up an altar?"

Gao Yun kowtowed and said: "Thank you, Your Majesty! I watched the sky at night and saw the aura of Ziwei gathered in the palace. Therefore, I thought that it would be in line with God's will to set up an altar in the palace!"

Emperor Wencheng said: "Zuza! After today's imperial court, Grand Master Gao can inspect in the palace and choose the site for offering sacrifices to the Temple of Heaven!"

Gao Yun said: "Thank you, Your Majesty! I still have something to do! If an altar is set up in the palace, the courtiers' relatives are forbidden to enter and leave the palace, which is not in line with our Wei etiquette. Feng Xi, the governor of Dingzhou and the king of Changli, is the brother of Feng Guiren. As a relative of the emperor, Meng Shengyi was able to walk around the harem frequently, and the old minister Gao Yun recommended Changli King as the foreign affairs supervisor, responsible for the delivery of all materials needed for the altar! Zhang Shan, the head of the harem, has been working hard in the harem for many years, and dare not With the grace of the Holy Spirit, you can be the envoy of the internal affairs of the altar!"

Emperor Wencheng said: "Gao Aiqing's words are very kind, and I will follow them! Gao Aiqing can burn incense and pray today, choose a site in the palace, and start work tomorrow!"

After the dynasty was over, Gao Yun entered the harem according to the order. After burning incense and praying, he pretended to look around, and finally settled on the side of the casting mansion.

Zhang Shan was overjoyed when he heard that Gao Yun had recommended him as the director of internal affairs.There is a lot of construction in the palace, this is a fat shortage, and it can make a lot of money.

He saw that Feng Xi was the same supervisor as him and was in charge of external affairs, so he knew that this must be Feng Guiren's plan.He also heard that Gao Yun's location was on the side of the casting mansion, and his heart became clearer.The difficulty of exchanging gold sand has been solved, Zhang Shan's heart disease has been cured, he invites Li Yi to drink and have fun, secretly planning how to get more silver taels.

Gao Yun has decided on the site, and Zhang Shan will start work immediately in accordance with the holy will.He asked the craftsmen to dig out the soil from the site of the altar and put it in a cart, and secretly sent his confidant eunuchs to load several carts of gold sand mixed into the cart, and transported it to the suburbs, where he met Feng Xi who had been waiting there for a long time. Backfill the car with gold sand and pull it back to the foundry.

In just a few days, the aged gold sand cast in the palace has been replaced by the high-quality gold sand from Dingzhou that Feng Xi had already prepared.Feng Xi also secretly ordered his confidants to transport the aged gold sand from the palace back to Dingzhou to make up for the warehouse.

When the altar was being built, Zhang Shan also recruited maids and eunuchs from various palaces to concentrate in the casting mansion.This is the ancestral rule of the Great Wei Dynasty. Whenever the emperor wants to order the concubines of the harem to cast gold figures, the people drawn from the palace must gather in the foundry mansion and be guarded by the guards. They are not allowed to associate with anyone, so as to prevent fraud.
