back to ancient times to be emperor

Chapter 727
Chen Xun also noticed that the little emperor didn't seem to be very interested in Fengshui metaphysics, otherwise, based on his contribution to the investigation of the imperial tomb, he would not be just a Qintian supervisor, even a senior official, and just an official. A court doctor of the fifth rank.Although there is no need to worry about food and clothing, you can enjoy your old age in peace, but it is delusional to want to be promoted and make a fortune, leaving a legacy for future generations.

For a Feng Shui master at this time, it would take at least several years to sort out the mountains and rivers, and it would take a few years to find a dragon vein.This is not an exaggeration, and this is why the feng shui master at this time, when helping the client find a geomantic treasure, must negotiate with the client and let the client support him for the rest of his life.This is mainly because Feng Shui masters spend their entire lives focusing on finding geomantic treasures, and have no time to earn money to support their families.If the client doesn't want to support him, why don't his family go drink the northwest wind?

To put it bluntly, it is an equivalent exchange.Just like a literati, reading is just to become an official, what is "learning literary and martial arts, and selling them to the emperor's family".Fengshui masters are more rare than literati. Literati do not have famous teachers, and they can learn by themselves;There is a saying that goes "Looking for the dragon for three years, acupuncture for ten years".Under the guidance of a famous teacher, being able to sort out the dragon's veins by oneself in three years is already quite remarkable; being able to help people locate geomantic treasures in ten years can be regarded as a famous teacher who has produced an excellent apprentice.Feng Shui is difficult to get started and mastery is not easy, but after learning it, it is more comfortable than literati. Those with advanced Taoism directly serve the emperor's family, such as surveying the capital, surveying the imperial tomb, formulating the calendar, choosing auspicious... In this era, reading, Practicing martial arts, studying medicine, and studying Fengshui are all occupations for making a living. If you learn well, they are all "goods and emperors".

Chen Xun himself said that he came from Chen Tuan's ancestor, but no one knows how credible it is.But he is very proficient in Fengshui, even divination and physiognomy, and he can be called a generation master.It's just that Lu Chengqi had preconceived ideas, and always felt that he was just a magician and not trustworthy.

In fact, when he changed his mind, he understood that Emperor Yuanshou was more than conservative and less aggressive, but it didn't mean that he was a fool, anyone could fool him around.If Chen Xun didn't have any skills, how dare he be the supervisor of Qin Tianjian?If he vents the truth, he will be accused of deceiving the emperor, and he will be beheaded, and even sit down.He is an ordinary person, and he has a family member, how dare he deceive the king?
But Chen Xun was very embarrassed that the official position was not high or low.His predecessors, Yuan Tiangang and Li Chunfeng, the former great Fengshui masters, were not famous.That is, the last Qintian Supervisor, Jianzheng, was also a senior official who worshiped Dr. Guanglu and was from the second rank.Even if it is just an official of honor, he can be regarded as an extremely human minister.But he died less than a year after Emperor Yuanshou chose him.He thought that his chance had come, so he used all his abilities to survey the imperial tomb for the late emperor and choose an auspicious burial.But after all this hard work, he only got a court doctor. The gap between the ideal and the reality was too great, and he almost lost his breath.

Later, he cheered up and wanted to express himself in front of the little emperor, but the little emperor didn't believe him at all, and he was in vain, saying that he was born at the wrong time.Now he could see that the little emperor had begun to worry about Zi Sui, and after hesitating for a long time, he finally made up his mind that if he failed this time, he would be benevolent.I deliberately found a good day and prepared to make an admonition.

Although Feng Shui masters rely on their eyesight to make a living, it is useless if their eloquence is not good enough.Chen Xun was a fine person, he slowly figured out Lu Chengqi's temper, and said straight to the point: "Reporting to Your Majesty, it's not about His Majesty's feng shui problem, but about the imperial palace's feng shui problem."

Lu Chengqi frowned and said, "Imperial Fengshui?" It's no wonder that Lu Chengqi didn't believe it, although he didn't think Fengshui was good, but Taizu definitely understood.When repairing the imperial palace, he must have put a lot of effort into Feng Shui. In his opinion, Chen Xun's words were just talking nonsense.

"Your Majesty, the art of Yang Zhai, the dark symbols are innate gossip, namely: Qian, Kan, Gen, Zhen, Xun, Li, Kun, and Dui. Qian is northwest, Kan is due north, Gen is northeast, Zhen is due east, Xun is the southeast, Li is the south, Kun is the southwest, and Dui is the west. According to the five elements, Qian is gold, Kan is water, Gen is earth, Zhen is wood, Sunda is wood, Li is fire, Kun According to the division of yin and yang, Qian, Kan, Gen, and Zhen are Yang; Xun, Li, Kun, and Dui are Yin. According to male, female, old and young, Qian is the father, Zhen is the eldest son, and Kan is the middle son. , Gen is the youngest son, Kun is the mother, Xun is the eldest daughter, Li is the middle daughter, and Dui is the young girl. Your Majesty's birth date has already been calculated by the minister, and it is rich in gold. In the palace, Gen's position is low, and His Majesty has many hits. Jin, it is disadvantageous for Zi Sui..."

Seeing the disbelieving expression on the little emperor's face, Chen Xun could only increase his strength and enlarge his moves: "Your Majesty, do you know that the imperial palace of this dynasty and the previous dynasty are from the same line?"

Lu Chengqi nodded, he knew this.This dynasty and the previous dynasty can be considered to be in the same line, but they just changed their surname to be the emperor.The two dynasties both settled in Chang'an, and the location of the imperial palace didn't change much, it was just a little smaller than the previous dynasties.

"What does this have to do with the previous dynasty?" Lu Chengqi was very puzzled.

Chen Xun sighed and said: "In March of the beacon fire, the palace was built into the ground. Although Chang'an was spared from war disasters, it was inevitable to be defeated. At the end of the previous dynasty, there was Furong Palace in the northeast. Burned into scorched earth. The previous court did not do anything, but continued to dig soil to form a pond here. Little did they know that this was a taboo in geomantic omen. The position in the northeast is the position of Gen, and the master has a young son. If the position of Gen is low, Zi Sui will be in trouble. Sure enough, the former Emperor Yang of the Chaoyang Dynasty had no sons, and the previous dynasty was destroyed. Although I, Dashun, established the dynasty in the palace of the previous dynasty, I knew how to make up for it.

Speaking of this, Chen Xun was a little afraid to go on.Lu Chengqi frowned: "What's the matter, continue talking?"

However, Chen Xun suddenly knelt down, licked his head a few times, and then said: "Please forgive me for the crime of disrespect first, Your Majesty!"

Lu Chengqi looked at him suspiciously, and said after a while: "I pardon you for not guilty, can you say so?"

In less than a quarter of an hour, Chen Xun's back was already sweating.Although it was a cold and windy winter day, he was sweating, which showed how terrified he was.

"Your majesty's numerology is rich in gold and wood, the master conquers the earth, and the water restrains it. Therefore, there should be a disaster in your majesty's life..."

Chen Xun didn't notice Lu Chengqi's gradually darkening face, and kept talking non-stop.Seeing that he spoke so smoothly, Lu Chengqi cursed secretly in his heart: "Is this considered an afterthought? That unlucky ghost fell into the Yuxiang Pond, and his soul has returned. You still need to tell me?"
