BXBX NOVEL Chapter 150 - 150 Scammers’ Lair
The Bazi Chart of so many beautiful girls had to be calculated within three days, which was a tough job. A woman’s Bazi Chart was usually not shared with outsiders, and it would only be handed over to the royal family for calculation during the selection of concubines.
“Hmph, we wouldn’t even want to enter. What is the Yin Yang Tower? I think it’s a nest of swindlers.” Jiang Shan turned around and left with Jiang Xi, for fear of losing his sister. Jiang Xi let him be. The young man behind him stomped his feet in anger, but he had to hurry away because the emperor was still waiting for the Bazi Chart fortune results of the girls from the selection. It was said that when the emperor was born, there was a heavenly phenomenon, which was an excellent fate.
“Don’t believe in fortune-telling, sister. They’re all scammers. They’re lying to you because you’re cute. The people in Jing City are too cunning, but the people in our village are honest.” Before Jiang Shan left, he did not forget to defame Yin Yang Tower.
Hong Shan covered her mouth and laughed, then said, “This Yin Yang Tower is quite capable. When the empress was pregnant, the imperial preceptor came to calculate and found out that the child was a reincarnation of someone who had done good deeds for ten lifetimes. The child was born with good fortune and would be loved by the heavens. Born in the palace, he was destined to lead the country to prosperity. The emperor was very happy when he heard this and celebrated for three days, waiting for the crown prince’s birth. When the crown prince was born, there were three rainbows in the palace, covering the entire palace like a fairyland. Thousands of birds gathered above the palace to celebrate the birth of the crown prince. The entire capital was filled with a strange fragrance that made one feel refreshed. At that time, His Majesty brought all the officials to worship the heavens, and three lightning bolts fell from the sky. I’m afraid the heavens heard His Majesty’s words.” When this happened, Hong Shan was only two or three years old. When the news spread all over the country, she remembered it clearly even though she was very young.
Jiang Shan had been staying in the village all this time, but this was the first time he had heard of such a fantasizing thing. He was stunned and quickly asked, “And then? What happened after that?”
“After that, the crown prince was kidnapped right after he was born. The empress was so angry that she fainted on the spot. Fortunately, the crown prince was lucky and was found a month later.” Hong Shan patted her chest. When the crown prince was lost, the emperor was furious. In order to calm his anger, he beheaded many people. It was really a bloody scene.
“After the crown prince returned, His Majesty the emperor taught him strictly. Perhaps it was because his fortune was exhausted after giving birth to the crown prince, the emperor did not have a son for many years. He only had a young prince, and his body was very weak. It was unknown if he could live to grow up.” Hong Shan lowered her voice. It was against the law for the people to talk about the palace, so she could not let outsiders hear it. It was said that there were even rumors among the people that someone in the palace had done something that angered the heavens, causing the royal family to have fewer children. This was a punishment for the royal family, but of course, these things could not be said.
Jiang Shan swallowed his saliva as he listened. He never thought that the crown prince would be so blessed. He really could not tell. When he saw the crown prince in Happy Town, he thought that the crown prince was a little dim-witted, but he did not expect him to have such a good reputation in Jing City. When he thought about how he would lead the country to a prosperous era in the future where everyone could eat well and wear warm clothes, he felt a little more respect for the crown prince.
Hong Mu did not stop talking. “Speaking of legends, General Zhao Ruifeng is also good. It’s just that his reputation is not as good as the crown prince’s.” Her voice became weaker and weaker as she spoke, for fear that Jiang Xi would be unhappy. The rumors of the Crown Prince and Zhao Ruifeng were almost two extremes. One was favored by the heavens, and the other was stepped on by the heavens.
“It rained heavily for three days when the general was born. The thunder even struck down a crooked tree in the Zhao residence. The roof of theZhao residence was covered in bird poop, and Jing City was filled with the smell of bird poop for a long time,” Hong Shan said slowly.
