As night fell, dark clouds obscured the starry sky.

Only a bright moon hung in the dark night sky, casting a faint glow.

The candlelight gradually dimmed, and Mu Yue drifted off to sleep.

Before going to sleep, she used a dream-entering technique.

Not long after closing her eyes, Mu Yue found herself in a completely blank space.

The space was entirely white, with no other color present.

In this vast space, only Mu Yue is currently present.

She frowned, somewhat puzzled, and asked the system in her mind, "Didn't I already use the Dream Entry Technique? Why am I the only one here?"

The system's mechanical voice sounded.

The object being used is not yet in hibernation; it will be pulled into this space once it goes into hibernation.

[The Dream Entry Technique can only be used for two hours. If the target is not asleep within those two hours, the Dream Entry Technique will lose its effect.]

Upon hearing the system's words, Mu Yue frowned.

She remembered that her father usually rested at this time, so why wasn't he asleep yet today?

Is the dream-entry technique going to be wasted?

Thinking of this, Mu Yue's expression turned somewhat unpleasant.

Just as she was regretting not finding out the good news beforehand, several figures suddenly appeared in the empty space.

Mu Yue realized that someone had entered this space, so she quickly imagined a veil in her mind and at the same time increased her height to make sure that she did not resemble her real self before she breathed a sigh of relief.

She had just finished these preparations when those figures appeared in the space, clearly the users she had chosen in advance.

"You are here!"

The ethereal sound echoed in the space, like celestial music from beyond the heavens.

As soon as Kangxi entered the space, he looked around.

I initially thought it was just a dream, but I saw many Suo'etu and Nalan Mingzhu.

He didn't think he would dream of two courtiers, especially in such a strange space.

Before Kangxi could figure out where he was, he heard this ethereal voice and instinctively felt that he had encountered a deity.

Humans are instinctively wary of the unknown.

As a suspicious monarch, Emperor Kangxi was no exception.

He instinctively became wary and tentatively asked, "May I ask who you are, Immortal Master? And why have you summoned me here?"

Mu Yue didn't speak, but instead displayed the scene of devastation and loss of life during the earthquake in the form of a water curtain before them.

The inexplicable scene left Kangxi and his entourage completely bewildered.

"Immortal Master, why are you showing me these things?"

Mu Yue didn't rush to answer. After confirming that all the footage had finished playing, she slowly said, "An earthquake will occur in the capital soon."

"I cannot bear to see the people suffer, so I have come to inform you that you should take precautions in advance to prevent the people from being harmed."

An earthquake?

How can we possibly guard against such natural disasters?

Emperor Kangxi frowned, looking troubled. "Does the immortal master have a way to resolve this matter and prevent the earthquake from happening?"

If Mu Yue had such great abilities, she wouldn't have needed to use her dream-entering technique to remind Kangxi and the others to make preparations in advance.

She said in a deep voice, "Earthquakes are natural disasters, beyond human power to reverse!"

"I can only inform you of this matter in advance. As for how to take precautions, that is your responsibility."

The more you do, the more mistakes you make.

Mu Yue was afraid that if she revealed too much information, it would arouse her father's suspicion.

After saying this, he voluntarily ended the use of the dream-entering technique.

As she finished reciting the mantra, the blank space shattered into pieces, like glass.

Kangxi tried to persuade Muyue to stay, but to no avail, and woke up in a fright.

Even after waking up, the events in the dream remained vividly clear.

Emperor Kangxi recalled the two people who had appeared with him in his dream and decided to summon them for a thorough questioning.

It was still dark outside, and the morning court session had not yet begun, but Kangxi had no patience to wait any longer.

He summoned Liang Ruhai, who was on night watch, and ordered him to go to the residences of Suo'etu and Nalan Mingzhu and bring them to the palace immediately!

Liang Ruhai looked bewildered, not knowing what had happened.

Just as he was about to ask a few tentative questions, he saw that Kangxi's expression was serious.

He immediately abandoned his original idea.

He didn't even dare to ask another question, and hurriedly nodded, arranging for someone to go to the two officials' residences to invite them into the palace.

At the same time, Suo'etu and Nalan Mingzhu were also awakened from their sleep.

Both of them have reached their current positions through their own exceptional abilities.

After experiencing such a dream, they suddenly realized that they would be summoned by the emperor.

The two quickly ordered their servants to light candles and put on their official robes.

Sure enough, not long after they changed their clothes, they received a summons from the palace.

Without any hesitation, the two immediately set off for the palace.

The imperial study was brightly lit.

Emperor Kangxi sat at his desk, rubbing his forehead in deep thought.

Upon hearing Liang Ruhai announce the arrival of Suo'etu and Nalan Mingzhu, he hurriedly said, "Quickly summon the two of them in!"

When Suo'etu and Nalan Mingzhu entered the Imperial Study, they were about to bow, but Kangxi stopped them.

"My dear ministers, there's no need for such formalities. I wonder if either of you encountered anything unusual last night?"

Suo'etu and Nalan Mingzhu exchanged a glance, then quickly looked away.

Relying on the Crown Prince, Songgotu spoke first, saying, "Your Majesty, I did indeed encounter some strange sights last night."

He briefly explained what happened last night.

Nalan Mingzhu, who was standing to the side, lost the chance to speak first, but he was not angry.

After Suo'etu finished explaining the general situation, he immediately began to analyze what had happened the previous night.

"Last night, Your Majesty and I entered that strange space together and even met an immortal. This must be a warning from our ancestors who could not bear to see the people of the Qing Dynasty suffer. They wanted us to be prepared in advance."

"Your Majesty believes that we should prepare food, tents and other supplies in advance so that even if an earthquake occurs, there will be no panic and more injuries."

Nalan Mingzhu's words were fair, but that was not what Kangxi wanted to hear.

He frowned, somewhat displeased, and asked, "Are we just going to stand by and watch an earthquake happen and do nothing?"

"I have only been in power in the Qing Dynasty for eighteen years, and such a disaster has already occurred. Could it be that Heaven is giving me a warning?"

At this moment, Songgotu quickly spoke up, "Your Majesty, there is no need to worry so much."

"Since this matter has not yet occurred, it is impossible to confirm whether the immortal's words are true or false. Your humble servant thinks that we should make preparations in advance and find a suitable reason to make the people leave their houses on the day of the earthquake."

"This can effectively avoid some casualties, and afterwards we can also spread the word that the emperor was blessed by heaven and knew about the earthquake in advance, which can also effectively suppress the voices of the people against the Qing and the restoration of the Ming."

Soetu's words do have some merit.

If an earthquake does occur, this is the only thing we can do.

If it hadn't happened, it would have just been a good thing to celebrate with the people, and wouldn't have caused too much of a stir.

Kangxi rubbed his temples and sighed, "Fine, let's prepare as Suo'etu suggested!"
