Tang riddles

Shen Jin was ill, and it took him seven full days to get better.Zhao sent the gentleman to see her, and said that she was overly frightened and hurt her heart, so that her qi was deficient and cold, and she fell ill with a cold.Although it is not a serious problem, if the knots in the heart are not removed, the spirit will be damaged in the future, and it is not good for the spleen. If it goes on for a long time, it will lead to more symptoms.This is also completely consistent with the diagnosis of Xiong Niang.

Prescribing a prescription for conditioning, Shen Sui, Zhang Ruohan, and Ying Niang took care of her every day in untidy clothes, until Shen Jin's complexion improved, and their hanging hearts were considered to be let go.

Zhao Shijun also took the pulse of both Shen Sui and Zhang Ruohan, but he didn't see anything wrong.Except for the physical weakness that Zhang Ruohan brought down from her mother's womb, everything else is normal, and she still needs to be recuperated with medicinal food.As for Shen Sui, her body was even more healthy, so that the symptoms of her yin and yang imbalance in the past had all subsided. As for why she was lethargic and addicted to eating, Zhao Shijun held her white beard and meditated for a long time before she came up with a possible reason.

The yin and yang qi in the human body circulate according to the natural law of heaven.In the past, the yin and yang qi in Shen Sui's body competed with each other, which was an unusual phenomenon, but now it seems that they have found a balance point, so that they live in peace.Tai Chi circulates in the body, endlessly.When the state of Qi changes, the body will naturally adjust accordingly. It is manifested externally, that is, there will be changes in diet and sleep, which is also normal.As for the changes in Shen Sui's body, it seemed that it had nothing to do with the poison of the red-tailed lizard. The poison had indeed affected the clarity of her spiritual platform, but now it has all been removed.The changes in Shen Sui's body were caused by herself, not by the red-tailed lizard toxin.The same would have happened if she hadn't been poisoned.

But Zhao Shijun also said that there was a hidden phenomenon in Shen Sui's pulse condition, which he couldn't figure out.Asked him, but he couldn't elaborate.He only said that it still needs to be observed, but it is not a serious problem, so don't worry too much.Shen Sui didn't pay much attention to it, but Zhang Ruohan paid attention to it, and then went to ask her about the hidden pulse alone, and she said that she already knew about the unusualness of Shen Sui's pulse, but it was her family's ancestral pulse. There will be one or two people like this, it is not a problem, so don't worry.Yipin's family has been the Yin family's family doctor for generations, so Zhang Ruohan felt relieved.But she always cared a little bit, and buried this matter in her heart.

Shen Jin had just recovered from a serious illness, and it took another three days for him to be fully recovered.On the day she was recovering from illness, the first day of June, early in the morning, the cloudy clouds that had hung over Luoyang for several days finally fell torrential rain. The torrential rain swept the entire Central Plains.

On the first day of June, there was a grand pilgrimage meeting in Shuo Ri, and the sage stopped his pilgrimage. On this day, a thunderbolt accompanied by a thunderstorm and heavy rain hit the Tang Dynasty. From the nobles to the common people, everyone fell into infinite grief and fear in an instant. among.

The prince hanged himself in the East Palace last night and left a suicide note.The book admits that he secretly colluded with foreign forces in an attempt to plot rebellion, overthrow Jinshang, and ascend the throne ahead of schedule.But because the incident was exposed, he wanted to flee in a panic, but was caught again. In desperation, he sacrificed his life to atone for his sin.The posthumous letter also confessed to the same party King E, King Guang, several civil servants, and several commanders of the Forbidden Army, including Helan Yixiong, who had already been imprisoned, and the governor of the Han Jiacang Forbidden Army.Write down the details of the rebellion without any flaws.In the end, it was written that the crime of the mastermind is unforgivable, but I beg the sage to let his wife, children, orphans and widows know nothing about it, and let them go.

Since the prince had committed suicide in the early morning, the sage rushed to him immediately, and then sat alone in the East Palace for half a day without any movement.On that day, Shen Sui seemed to have foreseen it, and did not go to court, while Li Jinyue had already left Luoyang five days ago, heading for Fanyang, Youzhou, an important town in Heshuo.Also in the afternoon of this day, a person braved the heavy rain and knocked on the door of Shen's residence alone with an umbrella. His gait was calm, even if the heavy rain poured down and his robes and boots were completely wet, he still did not lose his demeanor at all.

Hu Tuo opened the door and saw a familiar person face to face - Yang Bi.

"Yang Sishu, the Patriarch has been waiting for a long time, please come in." Hu Tuo was not surprised, and calmly led him in.With a smile on his face, Yang Bi swept away his gloomy and reticent image in the past, and said politely:

"Mr. Shen is really good at predicting things."

Entering the Wutou Gate, passing through the hall and corridor, Hu Tuo led Yang Bi to the study in the East Court, removed his shoes and entered the room.The study room has been the owner's private place since ancient times. Yang Bi smiled knowingly when he invited guests to meet in the study room.When going to the banquet, for fear of dripping water from the robes on his body and staining the banquet, he wrung out the clothes at the door.But I didn't expect a voice like the bright moon to sound from inside the door, and said with a smile:

"Yang Silang, go and change your clothes. If you don't dislike the humble robes, you can keep them behind the screen."

Going around the screen and looking around, at the banquet not far away, there is a person leaning on the table, with a lazy, but indescribably handsome, looking at him with a smile on his face.Cooking water and tea at hand is sure to entertain guests for a long time.

Yang Bi cupped his hands and bowed away, smiled, but without saying a word, he got behind the screen and went to change his clothes.When he came out again, he was already dressed in a brocade robe with moon white embossed with crane patterns, and the jade was hanging under his belt, and the bells jingled, and he stepped forward, with a natural demeanor, an ordinary face, but it made it more and more handsome stand up.

Shen Sui had already got up at that time, seeing him coming, he cupped his hands, Yang Bi returned the salute, after the salute, Shen Sui invited him to take a seat.

"The old appearance has been replaced with a new appearance, maybe this is Yang Silang's true face." Shen Sui said with a smile while pouring tea from a pot, the water mist blurred her face.

"It's Mr. Shen's ability to change people's old appearance into a new one." Yang Bi didn't explain anything, took out a letter from his sleeve, handed it back to Shen Sui and said:

"The owner of this thing must be Mr. Shen."

Shen Sui put down the teapot, took the letter, opened it as if he had never seen it before, and looked at it, only to see that there was only one line of simple small characters on the letter: [I bought thirty sticks of magnolia, and I owed thirty cash, and I want to ask for it. Yes, see you.Guiyou, Xuanyan, Beidou. 】

Shen Sui smiled: "This is a debt collection note, why did I give it to you?"

Yang Bi also laughed and said:

"Mr. Shen is really out of his mind to come up with such a topic for people to guess. Every word on this note has no meaning, how can it be a note for debt collection. Mulan, a flower and tree that can be seen everywhere, is worth a penny. What is the price of rice salt in this world? Kuang Bi has never bought Mulan, so he can tell that there are hidden secret words in it. Leaving aside the previous rights, let's just talk about the three words "Guiyou, Xuanyan, and Beidou" later. It refers to the location of your Shen residence."

"Oh? How do you know?" Shen Sui asked.

"Guiyou, Gui is the last of the ten heavenly stems, Kui Ye, all things are closed and hidden, pregnant and underground, Kui stands bright buds, referring to the north; You, the golden rooster announces dawn, refers to the east. The word Guiyou is a sentence : Hidden in the Northeast. Xuan Yan is the name of Xiao Yi, the second son of Liang Zhu Daocheng in the first dynasty of Xiao Liang. Gong: devote yourself to hard work, to act morally and righteously. In the northeast of Luoyang City, only Sigong Square can respond to this speech. So I got another sentence: Sigong Yashi. The last speech is Big Dipper. The Big Dipper is in the shape of a dipper. , but look at the direction the handle of the spoon is pointing, in Sigong Square, if you draw a bucket spoon, the handle of the spoon is pointing, isn't it the Shen residence?"

"Well, interesting." Shen Sui listened with gusto, so he asked again:

"Then what is the meaning of the previous sentence of debt collection?"

"Debt collection is nothing more than a deceitful word. You entrusted a slave in the imperial city to give this note to me. It is not encrypted or concealed. It is open and grand, but it does not make people suspicious. I am a poor scholar. I owe debts abroad and receive a debt collection note. , is perfectly normal. Besides, these young slaves can't even read a word, how can they know what is written in this note? But you still used code words to prevent this letter from being seen. The so-called debt collection, but It is the relationship of giving and repaying. The king and the minister can be compared to the creditor who collects the debt. Isn’t the minister and the king the one who is in debt and repays what he owes? This actually implies that he wants to recruit me. Whether it is thirty words or thirty sticks , In fact, you are all implying that I am 30 years old, and you are also implying a deceitful thing my mother did 30 years ago. This incident is related to the hidden meaning of Mulan's words."

Shen Sui smiled and said nothing, waiting for him to say the most critical point.

Yang Bi, however, took his time, picked up the teacup and drank the tea, then said slowly:

"Mulan, this flower is not that flower, but refers to the heroine Hua Mulan of the Northern Wei Dynasty. Therefore, Mr. Shen must already know my identity, and I am a woman disguised as a man."

"That's right." Shen Sui refilled her teacup again, "I believe in my gaze, and I know that you will definitely come to look for me after today."

"Mr. Shen, I have one thing I don't understand. It has been seven days since I received your note, and I came to look for you after seven days. How did you know that I would come to pay my respects today, and you even prepared clothes for me?" Yang Bi asked.

"Because I know that after the news of the prince's death came out today, you will be able to see the situation clearly and make your own judgment. You are a person who decides to make decisions, and you will never procrastinate, nor will you waste time."

"You actually knew that the crown prince would pass away today?" Yang Bi was taken aback.

"I knew it a few days ago. To be precise, after I rescued him on Songshan Mountain, I knew that his time was numbered." Shen Sui said, then she pointed to her temple, and said:

"He planted a seed in his mind that prompted him to commit suicide. It was planted by the gangsters. The method was hypnosis. It was a deep hypnosis and suggestion. Detoxification alone could not relieve this hypnosis. The prince even completely I believe he did it himself, and he thinks he deserves to die. The purpose of the mastermind behind the scenes is to put all the blame on the prince's party, confuse the public, remove the stumbling block in front of Concubine Wu Hui, and break the current balance in the court The situation, to push the Shou Wang Li Chuan further. This is not their original purpose, but a means of resorting to it as a last resort.

Originally, they kidnapped the prince because they wanted to launch another Xuanwu Gate change and set up a puppet emperor for them to control. The throne of this puppet emperor could eventually be handed over to King Shou.However, he failed, so he retreated to the next best thing, intending to kidnap him and establish a new emperor in another place, so as to split the Tang Dynasty, consume the Tang Dynasty's troops, and divert the attention of the Tang Dynasty's upper echelons.However, this wishful thinking did not work out, so the most helpless thing was to force the prince to commit suicide, take the responsibility for the crime, and completely wipe out the prince's party.

I asked Mr. Zhao Shijun, he is the only physician in the world who has researched hypnosis.According to him, patients who received deep hints, especially hints that they would commit suicide, had seen a statement in a medical essay that, according to the degree of mental firmness, the longest period should not exceed fifteen days, which must be unbearable.I am really not sure on which day the prince will commit suicide, but he is definitely not a man of firm mind.Last night was already the ninth night, and today is the Shuo Ri Grand Court Meeting, at which the sage would have announced the resolution of the Prince's matter.I speculate that the crown prince won't be able to survive this grand meeting, because in his state, he can't bear to stand on top of the hall and accept the strange gazes of his father and all the officials, and he can't accept that he is completely deposed and becomes a commoner.The strong suggestion of suicide in the heart reached its peak at this time point.

Everything is exactly as I thought, the prince committed suicide last night, today, you saw the situation clearly and came looking for me.Yang Silang, Sui will tell you the truth. I will never announce your identity to anyone, even if you don't want to be with us anymore.It's just that Sui really needs a strategic talent like you, who knows how to endure and pretend, and also knows how to judge the situation.This is the most scarce talent under the princess. "

Yang Bi laughed at himself, and said, "Bi thinks he's not as good as Mr. Shen."

Shen Sui's eyes suddenly became deep, and he said something that Yang Bi couldn't understand:

"One day you will understand that I am not the one who promised, and I should not stay here."

Yang Bi frowned, pondered for a moment and said, "Then, what should Bi do?"

Shen Sui smiled, and answered five words: "Do nothing, just wait."

The author has something to say: The historical prince Li Hong (Li Ying) died in the 25th year of Kaiyuan, and the text is now in the 17th year of Kaiyuan, which is eight years earlier.The prince in history was also framed and murdered by Concubine Wu Hui.He was first deposed together with E Wang Li Yao and Guang Wang Li Ju, demoted to common people, and then given to death.According to historical records, Concubine Wu Hui first contacted the prince, King E, and King Guang, and asked them to lead troops into the palace immediately, saying that there were thieves in the palace.As a result, after the three idiots put on their helmets and armor and entered the palace, Concubine Wu Hui said that the three had conspired against each other, so Xuanzong was furious, deposed and bestowed the three sons to death.I personally thought this was so stupid, so I complicated the history and moved the time forward by eight years.The more this article is written, the more it will deviate from the historical track, and now it has begun to see signs.
