I, the strongest poisoner, am called the living king of hell by the empress

The king of Chu was defeated, and the king of Chu was defeated.

"What's the plan?"

Wu Zhao asked.

Gao Yang's face was calm, and there was a madness in his eyes.

"Since there is no way to go, then don't go."

"You can't catch a wolf without sacrificing a child. Your Majesty can open the nine gates of Chang'an, lure the Chu army to fight, and defeat the Chu army head-on. This situation can be solved!"

As soon as this plan came out, the imperial study was quiet.

Everyone looked at Gao Yang in astonishment, and they could even hear each other swallowing in silence.

The next second, a sudden noise rose and resounded throughout the imperial study.

"The Chu army has 100,000 soldiers, and there are also the armies of King Wu and Xue Yi. Even if there are many casualties in the siege, there are still at least 120,000 people. How can we fight?"

"There are only 30,000 soldiers in Chang'an, and at most 50,000 or 60,000 people including the civilians. It's okay to defend the city, but once you leave the city, won't you be slaughtered by the Chu army?"

"Master Gao, are you sure this is a way to defeat the enemy, not a way to destroy the country?"

A group of ministers spoke up and the pot exploded.

Wu Zhao didn't expect Gao Yang's method to go out of the city to lure the Chu army into a head-on battle.

A poisonous scholar was forced to go out of the city to fight, and even bet everything, which itself represents the urgency of the matter.

"Besides going out of the city to fight, is there no other way?"

Wu Zhao asked in a deep voice, with a pair of eyes looking closely at Gao Yang.

Gao Yang spread his hands and said helplessly, "There is no other way."

"The second princess of Chu State initially attacked with rattan armor soldiers, and on the first night when the wounds of Chu soldiers were infected, she realized that it was the feces that caused the trouble, and ordered the Chu soldiers to stain their swords with feces."

"Her scheming and her military skills are top-notch!"

"Once the grain road to Chang'an is really cut off, a large number of people will be driven towards Chang'an City."

"By then, Your Majesty will be in a dilemma!"

"If the people are allowed to enter the city, the grain consumption will be accelerated. If the people are not allowed to enter the city, it will arouse public anger and even make them fight for the Chu army, consuming fallen trees and arrows in Chang'an City!"

"Over time, even the people in Chang'an City will be shaken and fall into panic."

Lü Zhen and Qin Zhenguo's faces flickered.

They instantly thought of the siege method mentioned by Gao Yang before.

If the second princess of Da Chu really did this, Daqian would undoubtedly be in big trouble!

All officials were silent for a while.

How can we fight this battle with hundreds of thousands of elite Chu troops outside the city and relying on the soldiers in Chang'an?

Gao Yang continued to speak.

"The Chu army was ambushed by General Lu last night, and their morale is low. Coupled with some special means in Chang'an, our army is not without a chance of winning."

"But if your majesty still can't make up his mind, I also know a little bit of divination!"

"My divination technique is used to judge good and bad luck, and it has a 100% chance of winning!"

As soon as these words came out.

All the officials and Wu Zhao were surprised.

"You can even do divination?"

Wu Zhao didn't know why, but after hearing these words, she suddenly felt more at ease.

When you are undecided, then do divination and follow the will of heaven!

Gao Yang straightened his waist and said, "I am very good at divination."

"Please lend me the tortoise shell, Your Majesty!"

Wu Zhao thought of what Gao Yang said before, eight hundred against a hundred thousand, which was a kind of metaphysics.

At this moment, she also needed a little metaphysics.

"Take the sacrificial tortoise shell!"

Wu Zhao gave an order.

Soon, an old eunuch came with a huge tortoise shell, which was not young at first glance.

The tortoise shell on the back of the tortoise has a peculiar structure, with three large grids in the center, ten large grids outside, 24 small grids, and twelve grids at the bottom.

These correspond to the three talents of heaven, earth and man, the ten heavenly stems, the twenty-four mountains, and the twelve earthly branches, which are consistent with the heavenly stems and earthly branches and the eight trigrams in divination.

To this day, the wizards of Daqian who use tortoise shells for divination are still sought after by the powerful!

Soon, Gao Yang took the tortoise shell and began to perform divination.

Divination with tortoise shells is not complicated. It mainly involves roasting the shells until cracks appear, and then pouring cold water on them.

Then, according to the direction and shape of the cracks on the shells, the three parts of the body, head, and feet are used to judge whether it is auspicious or not.

For a moment.

All the civil and military officials held their breath and focused their eyes on the roasted tortoise shells.

Snap!

With a crisp sound, cracks visible to the naked eye appeared on the tortoise shells. After pouring cold water on them, the tortoise shells became clearer.

Cui Xinghe was nervous. When he saw the cracks, his face turned ugly.

"The body of the tortoise is the main trunk, which means the process of divination. The corresponding cracks should be straight for good luck, otherwise it is bad luck!"

"The head of the tortoise is the head, which means

At the beginning of the divination, if the crack is high, it is good luck, and if it is low, it is bad luck. "

"The feet are two feet, which means the end of the divination. The cracks are movement, which is good luck, and the opposite is silence, which is bad luck!"

"The cracks on the turtle's body are broken and extremely uneven. The cracks on the turtle's head hang down and the cracks on the turtle's feet are not visible. This is a very bad sign!"

Following Cui Xinghe's words, all the officials' expressions suddenly changed.

The head, body, and legs of the turtle are all very dangerous. Wouldn't it be a dead end for this army to leave the city?

"Your Majesty, this is absolutely impossible!"

"This is a revelation from God, you must not go against it!"

For a time, all the censors spoke one after another.

Wu Zhao's face was ugly. She didn't expect that the result of the divination would be so bad.

She clenched her fists tightly and her eyes flickered. If she didn't take the initiative to attack, would she just watch the Chu army encroach on Da Gan step by step?

She was extremely unwilling to do this!

But Gao Yang's eyes lit up and he quickly raised his hands and said, "Congratulations, Your Majesty, congratulations, Your Majesty, this is a good sign!"

"I sincerely request your Majesty to send troops to fight the Chu army to the death."

For a moment, Wu Zhao raised his eyes in astonishment.

All the officials were also stunned. They first glanced at Gao Yang, and then all looked at Cui Xinghe.

Cui Xinghe's expression didn't look good either. He thought he had seen it wrong, so he took a closer look at the cracks on the turtle shell.

He couldn't help but said, "Master Gao, did you see it wrong?"

"It's clear that the turtle's head, legs, and body are all omens of great misfortune. Where do these omens of good fortune come from?"

A smile appeared on Gao Yang's face, and he turned to look at Cui Xinghe, his voice echoing throughout the imperial study.

"Judging from the cracks on the turtle shell, it is indeed a bad omen, and it can be called a certain death!"

"But I just forgot to mention that my divination has never been accurate."
