From Joy of Life, the Tian Gang is reversed

Chapter 85: Observing the growth and decline of heaven and earth, and predicting the waxing and waning of the sun and moon

"Your Highness, Fan Xian has arrived in Beijing."

In the study, Li Mingchuan walked in holding a piece of paper.

"Where's Ling'er? Did you meet her?"

"No."

"Hmm?" Li Chengqian finally looked up. "What's going on?"

"Miss Ling'er found clues about the Northern Qi spies when she was leaving the city, so she followed them."

"Ah!"

Li Chengqian suddenly laughed, but his heart sank slightly.

The first test was a bit of a failure!
In the original novel, Fan Xian met Ye Ling'er when he entered Beijing, but now the plot has been changed beyond recognition, and Ye Ling'er is no longer the same as in the original novel, but one thing has not changed, that is, Ye Ling'er is still Lin Wan'er's best friend. Naturally, she was very resentful that Lin Wan'er was hastily betrothed to an illegitimate child, and naturally wanted to weigh Fan Xian.

Li Chengqian was happy to see this happen. He also wanted to use Ye Ling'er to measure the restraining power of this world.

Now it seems interesting.

"Have those Northern Qi spies been caught?"

"When Miss Ling'er takes action, it's naturally easy to capture her."

"Yeah, I understand." Li Chengqian nodded, glanced at the puzzled Li Mingchuan, and said, "Don't think too much. Ling'er is Chen'er's best friend. She's not happy with this marriage, so we have to let her vent."

"Wei Chen understands."

"Alright, go back now. Don't worry about Fan Xian's affairs."

"Yes!"

Watching Li Mingchuan leave, Li Chengqian lowered his head, looking at the sutra that had been flipped through countless times, closing the scroll and sighing, "What a pity, I didn't draw any techniques related to this area. As a result, I, the crown prince, have to learn such mysterious things myself. I hope my talisman that rewards hard work will be more effective."

The book was closed, revealing five large characters on it: Huangji Jingshi Shu
Over the past six months, his second soul has been in a strange state, the kind that feels like lying down with nothing to do but unable to die. He always has random thoughts and thinks about all sorts of messy things, and then tells these messy thoughts to him through dreams, which does not provide any emotional value and makes him very annoyed.

Do you really think he doesn't care about the issue of world will?

As a homebody who read all kinds of online novels in my previous life, after traveling through time, I should not be sensitive to the so-called luck, world will, and son of the plane.

After feeling the world's restraining force when practicing Taiyin Form Refining Technique for the first time, he began to explore the world's restraining force.

In the past few years, he has been in seclusion frequently. Do you really think he has just rested?

No, he is studying fortune-telling!
In the past few years, he has read countless books on numerology. With the help of the saying "God rewards hard work", he has grown from a novice in the outer sect to a master of numerology.

He also used the Taiyin Body Refining Technique to tease the will of the world's Heaven. Every time the world's restraining force appeared, he concentrated his mind to sense and study it.

Finally, half a year ago, he took a crucial step.

By combining many books on fortune-telling and observing the characteristics of the world's inhibitory force, he finally deduced a possible method to sense destiny.

Why might and not can.

Due to lack of reference, he didn't know whether what he sensed was luck or not.

This is a step from zero to one. Once this step is taken, the road ahead will be open.

The next step is to use the destiny talisman and work hard.

During the past six months, he has become more and more sensitive to this kind of breath that seems to be luck, and he has also become more certain that the breath he sensed is luck.

Why did he say that? Because he'd discovered that this aura varied in strength from person to person. While it was barely noticeable in ordinary people, it was incredibly pronounced in powerful figures like Emperor Qing, the eldest princess, and Lin Ruofu. Of all the people he'd come into contact with, Emperor Qing had the strongest aura, and Lin Wan'er was the most unique.

Lin Wan'er's aura is obviously different from that of others, and seems to be more pure.

Similarly, this aura will change due to different experiences. If an official is demoted, the aura on him will decrease at a very fast rate or even disappear.

On the other hand, in the Eastern Palace, as several of his main subordinates became stronger and more influential, the aura around him also became stronger. Coupled with the luck bonus of being the crown prince, he was already approaching Emperor Qing's. However, it was not as pure as Lin Wan'er's.

In Li Chengqian's understanding, that pure aura should be the protagonist's destiny.

"Observe the rise and fall of heaven and earth, calculate the waxing and waning of the sun and moon, examine the degrees of yin and yang, and observe the forms of hardness and softness. Take your time. One day, all things like luck and destiny will be revealed by me."

Fan Mansion, Study

Fan Jian looked at Fan Xian, who seemed a little stubborn, and patiently explained the reason for this marriage. After a deep discussion and understanding of the causes and consequences of the marriage, the relationship between father and son eased.

Just as Fan Xian was about to leave, Fan Jian rubbed his brow wearily and said, "Kyoto is not like Danzhou. The waters here are very deep. Of course, with your status, you don't need to worry about most things. But there is one thing: don't let the Daoist Court catch you, otherwise you will be in trouble."

"The Daoist Court, Guo Baokun."

"Yes, Guo Baokun, be careful with your words and actions. Don't let him catch you."

"Father, are you too disdainful of your son? The Dao Judicial Division has nothing to do with me, right?"

"The problem isn't you, it's the Crown Prince." Fan Jian frowned and said, "In this matter, Lin Ruofu's attitude isn't important, not even the Princess's. But the Crown Prince is different."

"What's different about the prince?" Fan Xian was a little puzzled.

This was an ancient feudal society, and information was not circulated smoothly. The palace newspapers would not publish news about the prince. The people actually didn't know much about Prince Li Chengqian. Many people still had the impression that the prince was stabbed and had difficulty walking with his legs.

Of course, everyone later knew that the prince was not paralyzed, but the impression of his poor health remained.

As for the court, the impression of this prince was naturally that he was crazy.

The prince went crazy and beat the master to death with random punches.

As a result, His Majesty is now afraid to let him really take care of the affairs of the court.

In addition to his memorial, he established the Daoshensi. Although it seemed that there were only five clauses that almost crossed the bottom line of humanity, they actually bound the hands of powerful and high-ranking officials.

Therefore, he did not have a good reputation in the court.

He gained a reputation for being scheming, narrow-minded, cruel and ruthless, and was also known as the Prince of Destroying the Yamen. The entire court was extremely wary of his existence.

What good things can I say?

He is incomparable to the second prince, who has served in the Ministry of Rites and the Ministry of Justice, and has now been rotated to the Ministry of Personnel to observe politics. He is now very powerful.

Fan Xian had just come to Kyoto from the countryside in Danzhou, so he naturally didn't know much about the prince.

From Fan Jian's words just now, I could vaguely judge the status of the Fan family in Kyoto. Thinking of the Second Prince who was enjoying a high reputation, it was natural for me to imagine countless bloody legends of the fight for the throne. I didn't feel that the Crown Prince was any different. Could it be that his weight in this matter was really heavier than that of the eldest princess, Lin Wan'er's mother, and Lin Ruofu, her father?
Fan Jian is different. As one of the three core members of Daqing, he knows too well the importance of this unusual prince.

"Miss Lin grew up in the palace with the eldest princess and has a very good relationship with His Highness. If the Crown Prince is unhappy with this marriage, the easiest way is to have Guo Baokun keep an eye on you. If you're not careful and Guo Baokun catches you, your reputation will be ruined."

"Would Guo Baokun do such a thing?"

Fan Xian became even more confused.

Guo Baokun's current reputation in Daqing was comparable to that of Hai Rui in his previous life during the Ming Dynasty. He could be called the Divine Sword of Daqing. He was upright, fearless of power, and a man of integrity. Even though he was a tutor to the Crown Prince, was he truly so loyal to him? Was he willing to scuttle an engagement clearly orchestrated by the Qing Emperor just because of a single word from the Crown Prince?
"Guo Baokun is the prince's man. He will definitely listen to the prince. Don't doubt it."
