Abandoned daughter takes charge of the family, so rich that even the best people can't envy
Chapter 182 You are not human
She has a basic understanding of the Eight Trigrams, namely Qian, Kun, Zhen, Xun, Kan, Li, Gen and Dui, which represent different natural phenomena and directions.
This is what her senior brother kept muttering every day, and she just listened to it.
The nine stars are: one white Tan Lang star, two black Ju Men star, three green Lu Cun star, four green Wen Qu star, five yellow Lian Zhen star, six white Wu Qu star, seven red Po Jun star, eight white Zuo Fu star and nine purple You Bi star.
But knowing it doesn’t mean she can use it!
Cui Qiu saw that there was finally something she didn't know. She immediately said arrogantly, "If you don't even understand the most basic principles of Yin and Yang, the Eight Trigrams, and the Nine Stars, what can you do at the Imperial Observatory?"
Song Jinxiu said, "I can predict the weather and the rain. I'm better than you at this."
Cui Qiu said angrily, "You're holding on to your guess after getting it right just once. You're truly a mean person."
Song Jinxiu was not annoyed. She glanced at Cui Qiu and said, "Master Cui, please don't be angry. This gossip is actually very profound. I'm afraid you won't understand it if I tell you."
"Hmph! You can say whatever you want. No one can embarrass me with the Yin-Yang Bagua."
Song Jinxiu smiled and said, "Oh, really? Then you only know the eight trigrams, but do you know the sixty-four trigrams?"
Song Jinxiu doesn't know how to tell fortunes, but she's living her life in vain with her half-knowledge!
She had an enigmatic smile on her face and talked eloquently.
"Qian is three-connected, Kun is six-broken; Zhen is an inverted bowl, Gen is an inverted bowl; Li is empty in the middle, Kan is full in the middle; Dui is missing at the top, Xun is broken at the bottom. Master Cui, am I right?"
Cui Qiu was secretly shocked. These were the secret methods of Taoism that were not passed down. How could she know them?
Cui Qiu frowned and said nothing, waiting for her to continue.
Song Jinxiu put her hands behind her back and asked, "Master Cui, do you understand the Xiantian Bagua, Zhongtian Bagua, and Houtian Bagua?
Qian and Dui represent metal, Kun and Gen represent earth, Zhen and Xun represent wood, Kan represents water, and Li represents fire. Did you know that these are the acquired five elements?
How many ways are there to match the Eight Trigrams with the Nine Palaces?
Looking at Cui Qiu's wide-eyed expression of disbelief, Song Jinxiu smiled and said:
"Look, you don't understand. How can I explain it to you? There's a saying that goes, 'You never stop learning.' Well, I'll hold a public lecture on the observatory later. Please notify all the employees of the Imperial Astronomical Observatory to attend."
Song Jinxiu's deception not only stunned Cui Qiu, but also shocked everyone else.
Everyone looked at her differently.
I used to know that she was a good student, just a little smart, a child prodigy, and had a good memory.
But she is also very knowledgeable about Feng Shui and gossip, which is amazing.
Everyone here, the I Ching and the Eight Trigrams are also read from heaven, right?
If a little girl can do such a difficult thing, she can't be considered a child prodigy.
At this point, Song Jinxiu was finally on an equal footing in the hearts of the elders, and was even respected.
It is really not easy for a person to gain a foothold in a place, a field, or a court.
The reason why Song Jinxiu wanted to enter the Imperial Observatory was that astronomy and calendar were too important to the lives of ordinary people.
Such as helping farmers to rationally arrange agricultural activities, guiding navigation activities, and even influencing political and military decisions.
Of course, her focus is still weather forecast and people's livelihood.
Seeing the reactions of the emperor and the ministers, Cui Qiu knew that no matter what he said, he could not stop Song Jinxiu from entering the Imperial Observatory.
He pointed at her tremblingly: "You are not a human..."
Song Jinxiu: "Only a Ninth Heaven Fairy can dare to challenge your Yama Palace!"
Everyone looked at Cui Qiu: Just say less, you can’t win if you can’t win. If you say more, your Imperial Observatory will really become the eighteenth level of hell.
However, after Song Jinxiu visited the dome of the Imperial Observatory out of curiosity, she felt bored.
what the hell!
The National Astronomical Observatory only had a larger armillary sphere, some wind-measuring instruments with a piece of charcoal hanging from them, and a zither placed on an open-air altar...
She didn't even think of taking a look at the compass and tortoise shell that Cui Qiu treasured.
She just casually flipped through the most precious information room and came out.
When she got home, she hid in her room and started tinkering with the glass.
To establish a meteorological station, an astronomical telescope is essential.
Cui Qiu was on high alert, thinking of various ways to make things difficult for her. However, Song Jinxiu just showed up for a while and then didn't show up, which made him feel a little disappointed.
Cui Zixuan lost completely.
Fortunately, when she made a bet with Song Jinxiu, she told her about the bet, but Song Jinxiu said nothing.
Moreover, Song Jinxiu never contacted her again, which made her both relieved and depressed.
"Miss, something's wrong," the maid came in hurriedly, her face full of panic.
Cui Zixuan angrily shouted, "Why are you panicking? Tell me, what happened?"
"Cui Feng and the others were captured by the Jingzhao Yin."
Cui Zixuan was stunned: "Why did Jingzhao Yin arrest them?"
The maid anxiously said, "Miss, you forgot that Cui Feng was ordered to spread bad words about Dr. Song. As a result, they had just arrived at the teahouse and hadn't said a word before the Jingzhao Yin thought they were spies and arrested them."
"A bunch of idiots." Cui Zixuan was so angry that she dropped the teacup in her hand.
She heard that the rumor in the capital these days was that Song Jinxiu was the reincarnation of a fox spirit. She thought this was to her taste, so she asked her servants to add fuel to the fire.
"Don't they have eyes? They went to the Jingzhao Yin gate to spread rumors? They are such fools who can't do anything good but always cause trouble."
"Miss, what should we do now? Will they betray you?"
Cui Zixuan gritted her teeth and said, "Bring me a cloak. I want to go discuss this with Grandpa."
Chen Yaer from Pingyang Marquis Mansion was also feeling restless.
Her people were also arrested by the Jingzhao Yin. Her face turned pale, and she knew that she must not be blamed for spreading the rumor.
Losing to Song Jinxiu in poetry was merely an occasional setback, a temporary loss of literary talent. But if it were linked to the gossip spread by her descendants, it would be considered a sign of bad conduct, with no place left in the capital.
Princess Kangning and Princess Danyang were also talking about this matter.
Princess Kangning took a sip of tea and asked, "Is everything cleaned up?"
The Princess of Danyang County nodded. "Don't worry, Sister Princess. How could Rong Ma have left any evidence behind? Our people had already withdrawn. As for the rumor spreading so quickly, it can only be said that there are too many people who want to see that bitch laugh at her. This rumor is being pushed by several groups of people! Hehehe..."
When the rumor was traced back to the servants, they all insisted that it was not their master's instructions, but their own decision.
But anyone with a discerning eye knows that without the master's order, the servants wouldn't have the courage to do that, right?
Slandering important officials of the court was a capital crime. One person was beaten to death and the others were exiled. Their masters, Pingyang Hou and Cui Qiu, failed to supervise them properly and were each fined three months' salary.
That day, Song Jinxiu had just come out of class at the Imperial College when Li Chengji came to report, "Miss, the Madam and the others have arrived in Beijing."
"Okay, judging by the time, they should be here soon. Is my mother okay?"
My mother is more than five months pregnant. I don’t know if she can withstand the bumpy journey.
"The eldest master said that Madam is fine, but there are more people coming to the village this time, so you should be mentally prepared."
As soon as I entered the alley, a small figure led a group of people running towards me.
"sister,"
Song Qiu Sheng rushed in, but before he could hug Song Jinxiu, Su Chuan pulled him away by the collar.
"Sister, sister, Su Chuan, let go," Xiao Qiu Sheng waved his hands but couldn't reach his sister, so he started scratching Su Chuan anxiously.
