The film and television world begins with the battle for the throne in Kowloon

Chapter 971: Li Shimin, the Unworthy Son of Man

Seeing Li Shimin's face full of despair and sadness, his facial features showed such a different expression. After thinking about it, Yuan Tiangang felt that this was just a casual glance, very superficial, and it was not considered as calculating the secrets of the emperor, and he thought it would not be backfired.

So he said solemnly: "Your Majesty, please do not say such unlucky words. According to the old Taoist's observation of the sky, although the Emperor's star is dim, it is not in danger of falling. Your Majesty's life is not over, and there may be a turning point. "

Li Shimin thought Yuan Tiangang was comforting him and sighed, "Master, there is no need to comfort me. I know my own body. I have lived a wonderful life, and even if I leave now, I will have no regrets."

"It is this Great Tang Empire that I am worried about. I hope the Taoist priest can help me find a reliable person."

After saying that, he took out a stack of papers from his arms. There were seven pieces of paper in total, which contained the birth dates of all the princes over eighteen years old.

With a slight smile, Li Shimin handed over the piece of paper: "Master, these are the horoscopes of several older princes. Can you please help calculate them?"

Yuan Tiangang's pupils suddenly shrank and he couldn't help swallowing his saliva. His face turned slightly pale, his heart trembled suddenly, and his scalp felt numb.

In his eyes, this was not a birth date, but a note from the King of Hell demanding his life.
If he guessed correctly, there must be a candidate for the crown prince identified by Li Shimin among them. In order to avoid him not putting in all his efforts, he talked nonsense. Li Shimin actually mixed him in with the princes and asked him to pick out the true prince.

How cunning!
Yuan Tiangang's guess was correct. The chance encounter with the fortune-telling 20 years ago left a deep impression on Li Shimin. He knew that the emperor's fate was hidden by the heavens, and if he tried to peek, he would be attacked by the heavens and vomit blood and fall into a coma.

In this case, let Old Man Yuan test them one by one. When the right prince charming is found, he can naturally verify the result from the "violent reaction" to see whether the will of heaven coincides with his own.

Yuan Tiangang naturally knew the other party's plan, and swallowed back the words of comfort he had originally wanted to say.

He looked at Li Shimin with a bitter face: "Forget it, this man is so 'unworthy of a son' that he even plotted against an old man like me. Let him live in fear for a while, so as to make up for the wounds he has caused me."

Closing his eyes and taking a deep breath, Yuan Tiangang slowly reached out to take it, thinking to himself: "Three Pure Ones, I have been devoted to Taoism for decades and have never done anything that harms the world. You must protect me!"

After praying silently, he took his bag without further delay and placed the compass, copper coins and other items on the table.

Then he picked up the top piece of paper and began to calculate. There were only eight characters on each piece of paper, which were the year, month, day and time of a person's birth, represented by the Heavenly Stems and Earthly Branches, without the name marked.

However, as someone who has been in Sitiantai for nearly twenty years.

Yuan Tiangang knew the approximate years and months of birth of Li Shimin's several descendants, but he did not know the specific days and times.

Now that we have the eight characters and combine them with the year and month, it is naturally clear which prince it corresponds to.

Li Shimin did not disrupt the order, and arranged the princes according to their age. The first one was the horoscope of Wu Wang Li Ke. Yuan Tiangang had also been in Chang'an for decades and was very familiar with the situations of the princes. In his opinion, the probability of Li Ke being appointed as the crown prince was no more than 30%.

He had no worries in his heart. After throwing the copper wire three times, referring to the compass, and counting the heavenly stems and earthly branches with his fingers, he quickly finished the measurement.

Yuan Tiangang breathed a sigh of relief, put the piece of paper representing Li Ke aside, and said to Li Shimin: "The King of Wu has no destiny."

Li Shimin also saw that old man Yuan was fine and did not vomit blood. Of course, this was also within Li Shimin's expectations.

"Excuse me sir"

Li Shimin raised his eyebrows and asked, "By the way, sir, may I ask, what is Ke'er's fate?"

'Well'

Yuan Tiangang was immediately embarrassed: "Your Majesty, today we are going to predict the destiny. Although the prince is not the emperor, he has a trace of true dragon blood and is a rare nobleman in the world. If we calculate it in detail, it will definitely consume a lot of energy. I am afraid that..."

"Oh, I see!"

Li Shimin suddenly realized that this was probably just like horsepower. If it consumed too much, it would not be able to run soon.

Thinking that the crown prince he had chosen might be the last one in line, Li Shimin hurriedly said, "In that case, it is better to predict the destiny. It's up to you, Taoist priest."

Yuan Tiangang was relieved. In fact, it was not that he had not measured it, but the result was not very good. In fact, you can think of it without measuring it. The way of heaven is fair. The heavenly family is rich and enjoys the most honorable prosperity in the world. Naturally, it is lacking in other aspects.

Most people from the heavenly family lack some of the five elements, have a bad fate, and will not have a good ending.

Especially the emperor's son, who was chosen as the successor, was the most honorable and noble, and was also the target of public criticism. It was normal for him to die young. Those who were not chosen were feared and guarded by the emperor, and it was difficult for them to die of old age. This was almost beyond prediction, and was obvious to all. If these were made clear, it would probably anger the emperor and bring trouble to oneself. Rather than this, it was better to pretend that he didn't know.

Next, it was time to test the King of Wei, and Yuan Tiangang suddenly became nervous.

Now the King of Wei has the highest popularity and the greatest power in the court. He has been favored by Li Shimin since he was a child. Everyone knows that the King of Wei has the greatest possibility of succeeding to the throne.

Yuan Tiangang took a deep breath and looked up at Li Shimin.

Li Shimin also felt the other party's nervousness. While he felt amused, he hurriedly comforted him, "In the side room next to Chengqing Palace, there is an imperial doctor on standby for twelve hours. If the Taoist priest faints, he will be treated immediately."

"There are thousand-year-old ginseng and ganoderma lucidum in the warehouse, as well as fresh deer blood. We can replenish it for the Taoist priest right away and help him recover his vitality quickly."

'Gudu.'

Yuan Tiangang swallowed a few times again, quietly rolled his eyelids, and the veins on his forehead jumped unconsciously. He thought to himself: "This Li Shimin is really not a human being. He regards me as a test subject to spy on the secrets of heaven. This is not to calculate, but to see me vomit blood."

Yuan Tiangang took Li Tai's horoscope tremblingly, his face darkened, and he began to calculate, continuing the previous procedure.

During this time, Yuan Tiangang had been carefully guarding against the mighty power rushing towards him, but until the result appeared and the paper fell, there was no change at all. Yuan Tiangang was suddenly surprised and looked at the remaining pieces of paper quickly out of curiosity.

Could it be that this one is not Li Tai's? However, looking at the horoscopes representing the year and month of birth, the rest are smaller than this one. Yuan Tiangang frowned, thought for a moment, and asked with a little displeasure: "Your Majesty, the number of horoscopes I can read in a month is limited."

"If you are trying to test me with some irrelevant horoscopes, then there is no need. After these seven horoscopes are calculated, I will not be able to calculate horoscopes again within a month."

Li Shimin knew what Yuan Tiangang meant, and quickly said, "Master, don't worry. Among the seven, there must be a child of destiny."

Seeing that Yuan Tiangang still didn't believe it, Li Shimin explained with a serious face: "Even my horoscope is known to you, Taoist priest. Is there anyone in this world who is more noble than me?"

"These seven horoscopes are indeed the horoscopes of the seven older princes: King Wu, King Wei, King Qi, King Shu, King Jiang, King Yue, and King Jin. I didn't point it out directly, not to test you, but although I have my own ideas in my mind, I haven't made up my mind yet."

"I want to see if God is on my side. How can I just use some random candidates to get by? Taoist Priest, please don't think too much about it."

Li Shimin's words could only fool ordinary people, how could they deceive Yuan Tiangang, who was so popular with people and proficient in calculations? However, since Li Shimin had given him a way out, Yuan Tiangang did not care about it anymore. He could just test him, as long as he did not waste his "divine power" at will.

So Yuan Tiangang continued to pick up the third one, which was the horoscope of the King of Qi. After calculating it, Yuan Tiangang frowned. This person has the sign of dying young. Although he has been affected a little, he is still alive, but he won't live long.

Shaking his head, Yuan Tiangang said nothing more and continued to calculate.

In the blink of an eye, Prince of Qi Li You, Prince of Shu Li Yin, Prince of Jiang Li Yun, and Prince of Yue Li Zhen were all killed. Yuan Tiangang's brows were furrowed more and more. Although he knew that the royal descendants enjoyed all the glory and wealth, but their prosperity would not last long, but so many princes did not live long, and their end was not good.

This also made him sigh, and at the same time he lamented that the sky is bright and the earth is clear, and everything has its destiny!
After six cards were drawn, only the horoscope of Prince Jin Li Zhi remained. Yuan Tiangang became nervous again. Among the seven, only Prince Wei and Prince Jin were legitimate sons. Apart from Prince Wei, Prince Jin was the most likely candidate.

Noticing that Li Shimin across from him stiffened slightly and his breathing became rapid, Yuan Tiangang understood that the candidate Li Shimin preferred for the crown prince was actually the Prince of Jin.

Unexpected, but also reasonable.

Yuan Tiangang did not delay, picked up the teacup on the table, drank it all, and then began to deduce with a serious face. As the copper coins fell to the ground and the stems and branches were calculated, the fate of King Jin was gradually revealed in front of Yuan Tiangang.

A white mist appeared in his mind. This time Yuan Tiangang was prepared. Unlike last time, he did not rush in blindly.

Yuan Tiangang's consciousness slowly approached and went deeper into the thick fog. After entering, it was unknown how long it had passed before the thick fog gradually dissipated. A faint red light began to shine through, and a trace of majestic divine power seemed to be gathering.

Yuan Tiangang was prepared for the attack.

Suddenly, the thick fog dissipated, and there was nothing in front of him. It was so abrupt, just like walking on a bridge, the water surface was still there, but the bridge suddenly broke, making Yuan Tiangang a little at a loss, and the expected heavy pressure did not come.

Yuan Tiangang seemed to have used too much force, and the heavy object opposite him suddenly became empty. He felt as if his waist was sprained and felt uncomfortable all over.

At the same time, the red light and divine power disappeared without a trace, as if they had never appeared.
