In the Taishi Bureau, fifty-nine-year-old Yuan Tiangang stood tall and straight.

With a frown on his face, he looked up at the starry sky above him.

He murmured to himself: "Variables, variables again!"

Yuan Tiangang has been obsessed with astronomical observation all his life, and has also studied physiognomy in depth. But now, facing this vast starry sky, he feels confused.

All the experience and knowledge he had accumulated in the past became useless, leaving him in deep confusion.

"Old Yuan, are you looking at the stars again?"

Li Chunfeng's free and unrestrained voice suddenly sounded. He was chewing candy leisurely in his mouth, walking slowly with brisk steps, looking at Yuan Tiangang who was alone in a daze on the large terrace.

Yuan Tiangang immediately withdrew his gaze from the sky, glared at Li Chunfeng fiercely, and said with a hint of anger: "How many times have I told you! Call me Master!"

Li Chunfeng listened to Yuan Tiangang's words, rolled his eyes at him nonchalantly, and retorted: "What do you mean by 'Master, Master'? That sounds so old-fashioned. Besides, I just learned something from you."

"How can it be said in the Tang Dynasty that just because you learn something, you have to call someone a master? Can't we still be friends?"

Hearing Li Chunfeng's response, Yuan Tiangang looked at him and snorted coldly, scolding him: "It's neither fish nor fowl!"

Then he changed the subject and said with a hint of anticipation, "Do you have any more candies? Give me one too."

Upon hearing Yuan Tiangang's request, Li Chunfeng instantly became alert, his eyes narrowed, and he looked at him scrutinizingly and said, "My official position only gives out five a day!"

"I've been saving up for three days now and want to enjoy it all at once. Where's your candy?"

"You are at least the Imperial Master of our Tang Dynasty, even though it's just an honorary title and doesn't have any real power."

"But it's really scary to tell anyone! You eat at least ten candies a day, right? Where are your candies?"

When Yuan Tiangang was asked this question, he touched his nose awkwardly and explained helplessly: "The teacher gave the candy to the children in Chang'an City!"

"It's just that I'm observing the night sky right now, and my mouth feels a little bland. What's wrong with asking you for a candy? Are you not happy?"

Li Chunfeng listened to Yuan Tiangang's words, his eyes slyly rolling. Then he looked up at the night sky and said with a hint of sarcasm: "Old Yuan, I'm not saying anything mean to you, but what can you really make out of such a chaotic celestial phenomenon?"

"With your low level, you dare to try to cheat me out of my candy?"

Yuan Tiangang immediately straightened his back and said seriously, "What do you know?"

"You've only learned the basics of what I do!"

"I'm already this old, do I really need to cheat you out of your candy?"

Li Chunfeng curled his lips and threw a piece of candy towards Yuan Tiangang.

Yuan Tiangang took it, opened the paper package very swiftly, and put the candy into his mouth.

Ever since he first tasted this toffee, he has been deeply attracted to it.

He also found that when he tasted the candy, his mind seemed to be particularly clear.

"Old Yuan, I gave you some candy too. Tell me, what did you see from this celestial phenomenon?"

Yuan Tiangang closed his eyes slightly, waiting for the candy to melt in his mouth, and then he slowly said, "Wenqu becomes darker, Wuqu becomes brighter."

"Wenqu represents power and righteousness, and controls literary fortune."

"Wu Qu represents courage and fighting, and governs military fortune."

“Wherever Heaven points, it must point somewhere.”

Hearing Yuan Tiangang's words, Li Chunfeng looked at him with disdain and sneered, "Old Yuan, I thought you were going to fart something good."

"I didn't expect he was still such a stinker!"

"You still need to tell me about this?"

"Didn't you see what year it is?"

"The first year of Qianwu!"

"If Wu Quxing doesn't shine, will Wen Quxing shine?"

"I, Li Chunfeng, don't count. I can see that, okay?"

Being ruthlessly rebuked by Li Chunfeng, Yuan Tiangang's face turned red and he said, "Didn't you insist that I tell you what I saw?"

"I told you what I saw, and you're still not satisfied?"

"Didn't I just eat one of your candies?"

"Can't I just pay you back tomorrow?"

Yuan Tiangang complained angrily.

When Li Chunfeng mentioned milk candy, his eyes lit up and he said excitedly, "Old Yuan! His Majesty is getting married the day after tomorrow!"

"You were the one who calculated this date!"

"You must invite us!"

"Your Majesty's wedding, what good things can be missing?"

"When the time comes, we can grab a few more bags, put all the goodies in them, bring them back and eat them slowly. What do you think, Old Yuan?"

Li Chunfeng looked at Yuan Tiangang expectantly.

Yuan Tiangang listened to Li Chunfeng's fantastic plan, and the corners of his mouth twitched involuntarily. He responded mercilessly: "I don't think it's very good!"
