Chapter 50 Do You Know the Height of the Heavens?

If it is a general "Book of Changes" problem, I am afraid it is really difficult for Yuan Tiangang. However, there is a saying in China, which is called not knowing the height of the sky and the thickness of the earth, of course, there is a subtle saying, how high is the sky, how thick is the earth? The subtext is the same, asking Yuan Tiangang if he knows if the sky is high and the earth is thick.

Where to ask questions at the door, it is simply a provocation. If it's just a matter of asking questions, Xiao Daotong still needs to be treated politely, after all, Li Jiancheng's face still needs to be taken into account.

However, Chen Ying is a door-to-door provocation, that is the enemy, there is nothing to be polite.

After the Daotong door was closed, Li Jiancheng let out a long sigh and said: "Chen Qing, you are reckless, when Master Yuan comes out, you apologize to him!" ”

"Your Highness can't wait!" Chen Ying said: "Your Highness really thinks that I have nothing to do and bring humiliation on myself? ”

Although Li Jiancheng did not say it explicitly, the meaning was very obvious.

Although Chen Ying did not believe in Yuan Tiangang's Taoism and physiognomy, Yuan Tiangang had real talent and learning, and he had a very great influence, even if he was alone, it was enough to affect the movements of the imperial court. There is really no way to explain this superstitious thing, even in the later generations when science is developed, the god stick king Lin is still in the limelight, and he is worth hundreds of millions.

But this is the beginning of the Tang Dynasty, and Yuan Tiangang's influence is simply at the level of a nuclear weapon, and if such a figure is recruited, it can play a very big role. Even if Wu Zetian later grasped the actual power of the country, she still needed Yuan Tiangang to build momentum for her. Of course, there is no way to buy such a character with money.

Only by holding his handle and forcing him to cooperate.

Li Jiancheng has good knowledge, and he has also studied the "Yi", although Li Jiancheng does not dare to say that his research on the "Yi" can surpass Yuan Tiangang, but he also knows that Chen Ying's so-called problems have no explanation at all, but are more like messing around.

Chen Ying patiently explained to Li Jiancheng: "Dare to ask His Royal Highness the Prince, what answer do you want to get from Master Yuan?" It's for peace of mind, right? ”

Li Jiancheng looked at Chen Ying suspiciously: "How do you know ......?"

Chen Ying smiled and said: "Master Yuan has never been arrogant, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince can know, why did he ask His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to come to the door and avoid seeing him?" ”

Li Jiancheng said noncommittally: "Maybe he is really in retreat!" ”

"I smell conspiracy!" Chen Yingdao: "Master Yuan is raising hope, he is taking advantage of the fame of His Royal Highness the Prince......"

Li Jiancheng bowed slightly, thoughtfully, if Chen Ying didn't mention it, Li Jiancheng couldn't think of this stubble, but as soon as Chen Ying mentioned it, Li Jiancheng suddenly realized. He was a little ridiculous, he originally thought that Yuan Tiangang was an outsider, but he never thought that he also had a utilitarian heart. Originally, Li Jiancheng thought that Yuan Tiangang was famous for being proficient in the Book of Changes, and it was more than enough to destroy Chen Ying's prestige, but now Li Jiancheng found that Yuan Tiangang was also a layman, and he suddenly lost interest in seeing Yuan Tiangang.

Just as Li Jiancheng was about to return, the Taoist boy opened the mountain gate again, bowed to Li Jiancheng and Chen Ying, and said, "Meet you in the Mingtang of the Atrium. ”

When Li Jiancheng heard this, he was a little surprised. Chen Ying's question is actually not a problem at all, it's just a mess, you don't need to ask Yuan Tiangang and you don't know how high the sky is, at least there is no one to answer this question. However, Yuan Tiangang actually opened the middle door and met in the atrium, which was preparing for the battle of Chen Ying.

Under the leadership of the little Taoist boy, Li Jiancheng strode forward and walked inside, Chen Ying and Li Jiancheng were in the wrong position by half a shoulder, following closely behind.

At this time, on both sides of the road in front of the main gate, dozens of Taoist priests dressed in Taoist robes and holding swords were staring at each other. Chen Ying smiled dumbly, could it be that Yuan Tiangang still wanted to use these Taoist priests to put pressure on him? Although Chen Ying is not a battlefield of a hundred battles, he still has a lot to deal with such a small scene.

When the guards at the gate of the East Palace saw Yuan Tiangang lined up in this formation, he suddenly burst into flames. Dare to give the prince a horse, can Nima bear it?

The guards strode neatly and kicked their boots loudly. As the soldiers burst into formations, the armor blades rattled, and the faces of these Taoist priests suddenly changed greatly.

The prison rate of the East Palace is equivalent to the standing palace warriors in the imperial court, no matter whether they can fight or not, there are strict requirements for height, each of them is an eight-foot tall Guanzhong man, and what they are best at is bluffing.

Chen Ying followed the little Taoist boy to the Ming Hall in the atrium, and Yuan Tiangang sat on the main seat in the middle of the Ming Hall, wearing a Taoist robe. There is not one person in the Ming Hall, twelve small Taoist children kneel and sit on the left and right compartments, and the two bronze crane-shaped incense burners on the left and right in the Ming Hall are full of sandalwood. Chen Ying secretly looked at Yuan Tiangang, and saw that Yuan Tiangang had sparse eyebrows, a white beard, and was very well-groomed. What is magical is Yuan Tiangang's hair, his hair is slightly gray, and his beard is also white, white on the outside and black on the inside, as if he is wearing a gray hat on his head.

When Yuan Tiangang saw Li Jiancheng, he didn't get up to salute, his eyes were closed, and although his expression was not severe, he was very solemn, rigid but not fierce, and not angry and arrogant.

Those little Taoist boys looked at Li Jiancheng and Chen Ying who walked in, with different expressions, but many people's eyes lit up. Datang is not only an era of fighting for fathers, but also an era of looking at faces. If you have good facial features and a good demeanor, your official luck will be prosperous, and vice versa. For example, Xu Jingzong, this product is because of its poor appearance, so it has been displaced for half a lifetime.

Although Li Jiancheng has passed the age of establishment, he has a long beard and a graceful demeanor, and in terms of appearance, Li Jiancheng is actually the most handsome of the three Li brothers, much stronger than Li Shimin. Of course, there is no most handsome, only more handsome, compared with Chen Ying, Li Jiancheng is still far behind.

Yuan Tiangang can still sit firmly in the middle now, not happy or angry, as if he is indifferent. Chen Ying nodded secretly at Yuan Tiangang's calmness. In terms of pretending to be forced, Yuan Tiangang is indeed a master of pretending.

Chen Ying looked at the two empty seats in the middle, gave up the left seat of the lower road to Li Jiancheng, and retreated to the lower right seat himself.

For a while, countless eyes fell on Chen Ying. However, most of them are good at watching the show, mostly gloating, but Chen Ying is more calm and unmoved.

Yuan Tiangang is very calm now, because he has the confidence to be calm, because of Chen Ying's sudden question, he can now generously admit that he doesn't know, but he can casually throw it to Chen Ying and see if Chen Ying can answer.

Yuan Tiangang opened his eyes first and nodded slightly at Li Jiancheng. Then he stared at Chen Yingdao with a sharp gaze: "The poor road doesn't know how high the sky is and how thick it is, Chen Langning knows how thick the sky is?" ”

Chen Yingdao: "Naturally know! ”

Yuan Tiangang smiled slightly, and Chen Ying entered the urn. In ancient China, there was a saying that there were nine heavens, but these nine heavens did not refer to the nine heavens wrapped in layers, but to different directions. For example, "Lü's Spring and Autumn Period" said that there are nine fields in the sky, the central is called Juntian, the east is called Cangtian, and the northeast is called Changing Heaven. The north is called Xuantian, the northwest is called Youtian, the west is called Haotian, the southwest is called Zhutian, the south is called Yantian, and the southeast is called Yangtian. The "Huainanzi" of the former Han Dynasty also said that the central is called Juntian, the east is called Cangtian, the northeast is called Xuantian, the northwest is Youtian, the west is heaven, the southwest Zhutian, the south is Yantian, and the southeast is Yangtian. With the saying that the sky is round and the earth is round, there is no difference between the distance between the sky and the earth, and it can even be said that there is no definite data. Even if it's the same sky, it depends on where you are, and the distance is naturally different from each other.

If Chen Ying is smart, he should admit that he doesn't know either. However, Chen Ying is smart to himself, so it is not terrible.

Yuan Tiangang said: "Do you know how high the sky is? How thick is the ground? ”
