Chapter 16
While drinking happily, I saw Fei Zhong and You Hun coming on horseback, with their own banquet, and also came to bid farewell to Ji Bo.When all the officials saw Fei and You coming, they were a little displeased, and they all withdrew.Ji Chang thanked and said: "Two great gentlemen, what can Chang do, and the lotus is far away." Fei Zhong said: "I heard that the virtuous Hou has returned home, and I have come to bid farewell to the lowly. There is something late. I hope to beg for forgiveness." Ji Chang is a benevolent gentleman. If you treat people sincerely, you have a false intention. When you see the two people are attentive, you will be happy.However, all the officials were afraid of these two people, so they all dispersed first.Only the three of them hold the lamp.After several rounds of drinking, Fei and You said, "Bring a big cup." They poured a full cup and offered it to Uncle Ji.Uncle Ji took the wine, bowed himself to thank him, and said, "inherit many great virtues, when will you get the ring?" He drank it all down.Ji Bo had a large amount, and he drank several cups without realizing it.Fei Zhong said: "May I ask you, the virtuous prince, Zhong often heard that the virtuous prince can perform the innate number, and the result is not bad?" Ji Chang replied: "The principle of yin and yang has its own definite number, how can it be inaccurate? But people can reverse it." This is a good way to avoid them, and you can also escape." Zhong Fu asked, "If you were in today's world, everything you did would be chaotic, and you don't know whether you can predict the future?" At this time, Ji Bo was half drunk, but he forgot these two things When people came, they frowned and sighed as soon as they heard that the emperor was relieved, and sighed: "The country is in a state of disgrace, and it can't end well if it is passed on. What the son does today is to speed up his defeat. The minister can bear it." That's right." Ji Bo said, feeling sad.Zhong asked again, "What year should the number be?" Ji Bo said, "It's only four or seven years, and it's only Jiazi at the age of Wuwu." Both Fei and You sighed and paid Xibo with wine.After a while, the two asked again: "You two are not talented, and I would like to count the virtuous princes, and see how I will live my life?" Ji Bo was originally a virtuous gentleman, but he knew the hypocrisy. This number is very strange." Fei and You asked with a smile, "How is it? Is there something strange about the number of these two?" Chang said: "Although there is a definite number of people's death and life, they may be paralyzed, consumptive, and diaphragmatic. Disease, or the five punishments of water and fire, rope hanging and falling, it is nothing more than life, unlike the two doctors, who died strangely and strangely." Fei and You asked with a smile: "What is it after all? Where did he die?" Chang said: "For some reason in the future, I will be drowned in snow and frozen in the ice to die." Later, Jiang Ziya froze Qishan, took Lu Xiong, captured the two, and sacrificed to the altar.This is a matter of funeral, and it is not a matter of confession.After hearing this, the two smiled and said: "There is a time for life, and a place for death, and he is free." The three of them drank again.Fei and You took the opportunity to seduce them and said, "I don't know if the virtuous Marquis has ever acted like himself?" Chang said, "I have acted like this before." Fei Zhong said, "What is the good fortune of the virtuous Marquis? " Chang said: "If you don't come, you can still ask for a good death." Fei and You both spoke congratulatory words and said: "A virtuous marquis is blessed with both good fortune and longevity." Xibo thanked him modestly.The three of them drank a few more cups, Fei and You said: "If you have something to do in the court, don't dare to stay in it for a long time, the virtuous Marquis take care of your future." They each parted.Fei and You scolded at once: "This old bastard, he died in the present, so he said he died? I will freeze to death in the cold. Clearly scolding me, this is abominable!" .Get off the horse and go to the palace to meet the emperor.The king asked, "What did Ji Chang say?" The two ministers said: "Ji Chang complained and insulted the king with nonsense. The crime is disrespect." King Zhou was furious and said, "This man, I will forgive you and return to the country. He didn't appreciate virtue, but insulted me instead, hateful! What did he say to insult me?" The two said again: "He once acted a number, saying that the country will only be passed down once, and the delay will not be more than four or seven years. Your Majesty can't end well." King Zhou scolded angrily, "Don't you ask how this old man died?" Fei Zhong said, "The two officials also asked him, and he said he died well. Most likely, Ji Chang is lying and deceiving people's eyes and ears. That is to say, his death and life came from His Majesty, but he still doesn't know it, and he said that he had a good death. Isn't this his own coaxing? That is, the two ministers asked him to perform numbers, and he said that the two ministers froze to death in the ice. Yin, even if you are a small person, there is no reason to freeze to death in the ice. That is to say, these are all absurd and false statements, confusing the world and slandering the people, nothing more than this. Your Majesty will give it to you quickly." The king said: " For my decree, I ordered Chao Tian to rush to get it, and immediately take the head, and order the capital to refrain from evil words." Chao Tian got the decree and chased after him.

Let's say that when Ji Chang got on the horse, he felt that he had slipped his words after drinking, and hurriedly ordered his family to leave the place quickly, fearing that there would be changes in the future, everyone urged them to move and walked in a meandering manner.Ji Bo thought to himself on the horse: "In my calculations, seven years of calamity happened, why did I come back safely? It must be a slip of the tongue here, causing right and wrong, and it will definitely cause trouble." While hesitating, I saw a horse coming like flying. , and in front of him, it was Chao Tianye.Chao Tian shouted: "Uncle Ji, the emperor has a decree, please come back." Uncle Ji replied, "General Chao, I already know." After seven years, I will naturally return to the country safely. Let Boyi pass the exam and obey my mother's order, and I will be with my brothers, and the rules of Xiqi must not be changed. If there is no other advice, you go." Everyone returned to Xiqi with tears.Chang and Chao Tian come back to Chaoge.There is a poem that says:

The ten-mile long pavilion preserves the wine, just because the wine speaks poorly.If it weren't for the number of days, how could Ji Hou praise Fuxi.

It is said that when Ji Chang and Chao Tian came to the Meridian Gate, they would report to Ma Fei and Huang Feihu.Feihu was startled, and thought: "Why did you go and come back again? Could it be that Fei and You are traitors and killed Jichang?" Ling Zhou Ji: "My highness, please come to the Meridian Gate." .Huang Feihu followed his mount and hurried to the Meridian Gate.At that time, Ji Chang was already at the Meridian Gate, and Feihu hurriedly asked, "Why is it that the virtuous prince has gone and returned?"

However, when Chao Tian saw his return, King Zhou was furious and ordered Jichang to be summoned quickly.When Jichang came to Danchi, he fell down and said: "He has received the grace of God, and the minister returned to the country. Now I have called the minister back, but I don't know why?" Your kindness, but instead of insulting the Son of Heaven, what else can you say?" Ji Changzou said: "Although I am very stupid, I know that there is heaven above, and earth below, and that there is ruler in the middle. "Heaven, earth, monarch, relatives, and teachers are five words. I don't dare to forget them at all times. How dare you insult your majesty and risk your life?" Wang said angrily, "You are still talking and arguing here. How many days are you acting, insulting your majesty?" I bow, the crime is unforgivable!" Changzuo said: "The innate number is Fuxi's evolution into gossip, which determines the good and bad of human affairs. It is not the fault of the minister. The minister is only based on the data. How dare you make false claims?" Wang said: "You try to play my count, how do you see the world?" Changzuo said: "Your Majesty's count is not good, so I told the two doctors Fei Zhong and You Hun that it is not good, and I didn't say anything right or wrong. I dare to be arrogant. Discuss!" King Zhou stood up and shouted loudly: "You say that I can't die well, and you boast that you have died in bed, so why not insult the king! This is just a demon to confuse the people, and it will cause chaos in the future! I will teach you first that there is no limit to the number, so you can't die well. ’” Passed the decree: “Take Ji Chang out of the Meridian Gate owl’s head to rectify the law of the country!” Waiting to step forward, someone outside the hall shouted: “Your Majesty, Ji Chang must not be beheaded! I have a letter of remonstrance.” King Zhou looked anxiously, and saw Huang Feihu, Wei Zi and other seven ministers enter the hall. He fell down and said: "Your Majesty, heaven pardon Ji Chang to return to the country, and the subjects admire virtue like a mountain. Moreover, the number of Chang's congenital days was performed by Fuxi's sage, not Ji. Chang fabricated it. If it is inaccurate, it can be inferred from the data; if it is accurate, Ji Chang is also a gentleman, not a cunning villain. Your Majesty can also forgive him for his small mistakes." The lord can't bear it, how can he be pardoned for his innocence!" Bigan said: "The ministers are not Ji Chang, but the country. Today, Your Majesty beheading Ji Chang is a minor matter, but the safety of the country is a major matter! Ji Chang has always been famous and is a prince. Looking up, the army and the people admire. Moreover, Chang Chang’s innate data are directly inferred, not fabricated. If the Holy Majesty does not believe it, he can order Ji Chang to act as a bad luck. If it is approved, Ji Chang can be pardoned. If not, he will be charged with fabricating demonic words Seeing the strong remonstrance of the ministers, King Zhou had no choice but to play it, and ordered Ji Chang to play the good and the bad.As soon as Chang took the money, he was shocked and said: "Your Majesty, there will be a fire in the Taimiao Temple tomorrow. Please open the god of the clan as soon as possible, for fear of destroying the foundation of the society." Wang said: "When will the next day be counted?" Chang said: " It should be at noon." The king said: "In this case, let Ji Chang be sent to prison, and I will test it tomorrow." All the officials went out of the Meridian Gate together, and Bo Ji thanked the seven highnesses.Huang Feihu said: "Your Majesty, tomorrow is dangerous and we must consider it." Ji Chang said: "Let's see the number of days?"

In addition, King Zhou said to Fei Zhong: "Ji Chang said that there will be a fire in the Taimiao Temple tomorrow. If he obeys his words, what can we do?" Where did it come from?" The king said: "This is a very good statement." The emperor returned to the palace, and Fei and You also went out of the court.Let's say that the next day, Huang Feihu, King Wucheng, and about seven of his highnesses were all in the palace, and there was a fire at noon.Order the Yinyang official to report the time, and the Yinyang official reported: "My lords, it's noon." The officials didn't see the Taimiao fire, and when they were panicking, they only heard a thunderbolt in the air, and the mountains and rivers vibrated.Suddenly, the yin and yang officials came to report: "My lords, the Taimiao is on fire." Bigan sighed and said: "The Taimiao has changed, and the world will be full of soup soon." All the people went out of the palace to watch the fire.So hot!But see:

This fire originally originated in the stone, but in fact it is powerful and majestic. It sits in the southeast of the ground, and it is turning into the red sand and nine tripods.This fire was born by the Suiren family, carved wood and drilled gold, and turned around.He is the only one who has feelings in the gossip, and he is the only one who is ruthless among the five elements.Living in the southeast in the morning, it illuminates the brilliance of all things; in the evening, it falls in the northwest, and it is the chaos of the whole life.Where the fire started, lightning flew up; when the smoke came out, it was dark and covered the sky.Look at the height, there are hundreds of feet of thunder; listen to the distance, there are three thousand thunderbolts.Black smoke covered the ground, and thousands of golden snakes walked in a busy schedule; red flames rushed into the sky, and there were thousands of fire pieces in an instant.With the help of the strong wind, the golden nails and vermilion households rest for a while; when the evil fire comes, the carved eaves of green tiles twist their fingers.The fire burst into thousands of flames, the sky was full of stars, and the capital shouted in unison, causing a sensation and shock to all the people.

Counting the congenital Mo Lang's guesses, Cheng Tang's temple was turned into ashes.

God has determined the ups and downs, so people can't help themselves.

It is said that when King Zhou was in the Longde Hall, when he was gathering civil and military discussions, he saw the imperial officer come and play: "Sure enough, the Tai Temple is on fire at noon."Ji Chang is really a saint!King Zhou said: "Ji Chang's number has been fulfilled today, how should the doctor deal with it?" Fei and You two ministers said: "Although Ji Chang's number is occasionally verified, it is at the right time. How can I be pardoned and returned to the country? Your Majesty fears All the ministers remonstrated, and only pardoned Ji Chang, so it must be so, the world can be safe, and the strong ministers have no worries, this is the blessing of the people all over the world." Wang said: "Your words are very kind." Zi, Bigan, Huang Feihu and others have finished their court visits.Bigan said: "Today's fire in the Taimiao Temple, Ji Chang's numbers have been verified. I hope His Majesty will pardon Chang's outspoken crimes." Only when the state is in peace can we return to the country." Bigan waited for Xie En to come out, and they all arrived at the Meridian Gate.Bigan said to Changyan: "For the sake of the virtuous Marquis, the Son of Heaven will be pardoned for death crimes. If he is not pardoned, he will return to the country. He will temporarily live in Yuli for more than a month. The Marquis will be at peace, and when the Son of Heaven returns to heaven, he will naturally return to his hometown in glory." Ji Chang Dun thanked him and said: "Today, the Son of Heaven is forbidden in Chang'an, and there is no place without grace. How dare you violate it?" Feihu said again: "The virtuous Marquis only lives for more than a month temporarily. I will wait for the organization to meet, and I will naturally meet with the virtuous." In order to save the situation, Hou Li will not let the virtuous marquis stay here for a long time." Ji Chang thanked everyone, and then he went to the Meridian Gate to thank the palace, and escorted the officials to Yili.The elders of the army and civilians in Yuli lead sheep and carry wine, and kneel down to greet them.The elders said: "Now that you have received the attention of a saint in Yuli, all things will be bright." The sound of cheers, drums and music shook the sky, and they welcomed into the city.The escort officer sighed and said: "The heart of the saint is the same as the sun and the moon, shining in all directions. Watching the people welcome Uncle Ji today, it is not a crime of Uncle Ji." Ji Chang entered the mansion, and the escort officer went to the capital to return the order.

And it is said that when Jichang came to Yuli, he was very educated, and the army and the people enjoyed their work.Living at leisure, I repeated Fuxi's eight hexagrams and turned them into 64 hexagrams, divided into 360 Yaoxiang.Keep your points and live in peace, without any resentment against the Lord.Later generations have a poem praising it:
Seven years of difficulty in the city of Yuli, the hexagrams and lines have become clear one by one.The mystery penetrates the innate secrets, and the name of the great saint has been passed down through the ages.

The words show that King Zhou imprisoned ministers without fear.One day, when he reported to Yuanrong Mansion, Huang Feihu read the newspaper and saw that Jiang Wenhuan, the Marquis of Dongbo, led 40 troops to take Youhun Pass;The world has turned against the princes of four hundred towns.Huang Feihu sighed and said: "The soldiers in the second town have risen, and the world is in a panic. When will the people be safe?"This remark does not express.In addition, it is said that Daoist Taiyi of Jinguang Cave in Qianyuan Mountain, because the gods committed the precept of killing for 20 years, accumulated over the years, the world was in chaos, and then he was restored.One thing is that Jiang Ziya should be beheaded to make the gods, Chengtang should be destroyed, and the Zhou family should be prosperous, so Yuxu Palace lived and preached Taoism.Daoist Taiyi sat idle in the cave, only listening to the white crane boy from Yuxu Palace in Kunlun Mountain carrying jade papers to the mountain.Immortal Taiyi received the jade letter and looked at Yuxu Palace to pay homage. Boy Baihe said, "Jiang Ziya will go down the mountain soon. Please ask my uncle to send the Lingzhu down the mountain." Immortal Taiyi said, "I already know." Boy Baihe went back No table.Daoist Taiyi sent this old man down the mountain, not knowing what will happen next, let's listen to the next chapter to break it down.
