Because the matter happened suddenly, Yi Xingchen could not think of how to answer this question. If he answered truthfully and told the things that night, then he would be afraid that Governor Li would say that since you knew it, why didn’t you warn me earlier? It would be a big deal that caused so many of my subordinates to die tragically, and that would be very angry. If other lies were made up, it would be difficult to make them thoroughly in a short time. Once Governor Li saw it through, the frankness he had in his previous impression would be gone immediately, and it would not be a good thing to anger a governor. I am afraid that this life-saving skill would be greatly reduced or even completely washed away.

So, Yi Xingchen decided to explain the truth and falsehood. Anyway, he had calculated the fortunes before and guarded Governor Li, and the result was great.

Yi Xingchen lowered his voice and said, "To be honest, Governor, I calculated the situation just now through fortune-telling."

Governor Li was stunned for a moment: "By telling fortunes?"

"Yes, before joining the Jinyiwei, Bei Zhi set up a stall on the street to tell fortunes and followed my master. My master is Gongsun He. He has been telling fortunes in Tunzhou for decades. I am his apprentice."

"So that's it, how did you calculate?"

Yi Xingchen said: "Just just now, in front of the houses of the passing families, I saw a bird's nest under the eaves. A snake crawled into the swallow's nest and ate the little swallow inside. The two big swallows were so scared that they dared not go back to the nest. I thought this strange phenomenon was not good, so even if the hexagram was taken, the swallow and the snake both returned to the Zhenmu hexagram, so I got a Zhen as the thunder hexagram. Add the current number of hours. Divided by six, the remainder is exactly zero, so the moving line takes the six lines. There is a sentence in the line in the Book of Changes called "Sheng Yao". Therefore, I think it will be dangerous to move forward, but I am not sure. I just passed that house

I saw a towering tree on the side of the road. The tree was very big and very big. Then I immediately thought that the upper and lower hexagrams of Zhen are all Zhenmu hexagrams. Isn’t it represent a big tree? Do the two Zhenmu hexagrams together represent a towering tree? It means that the real culprit comes from this towering tree. When I saw that the big tree was lush and leaves, I couldn’t see whether there was an assassin hidden inside. In a hurry, I would rather believe it than not. It is my responsibility to protect the safety of the adults. If I guessed it wrong, it would be okay to be ridiculed by the adults. Therefore, I used a shield to block it, but I didn’t expect it to be true. Haha.”

Yi Xingchen smiled proudly.

Governor Li was stunned for a moment and said, "The upper and lower mutual hexagrams are both Zhenmu hexagrams. With the time, do you think the moving line is in the sixth line, right?"

Yi Xingchen said: "Yes, isn't it right?"

Governor Li smiled bitterly and shook his head, saying, "It's such a lucky thing. Brother, your hexagram is actually wrong. Because the Zhenmu hexagram represents four. Two fours are eight, and the current hour is noon, the ordinal number is seven, the three numbers are fifteen, and the remaining number is three. Therefore, the moving line should be in the third line. The third line of the Book of Changes says "Zhen Susu, Zhenxing. No boundary". It means that the thunder shakes make people terrify and uneasy, and moves forward in the thunder without disaster."

Yi Xingchen suddenly said in panic: "It turns out that the adults understand the Yi number of Plum Blossoms. I just calculated the wrong number. It's really embarrassing. How did I calculate it? How could I calculate the remainder as six? The remainder should be three. The adults are right. I, I am so embarrassed." After that, Yi Xingchen was panic again, blushing and looked very ashamed.

Governor Li laughed: "Fortunately you calculated the wrong thing, you have to calculate it right, but the third line of the line has no danger to let us continue to move forward, so we are really in trouble. You and I may die in this disaster. Fortunately, you were wrong, and you happened to calculate it by accident. The upper six line is a moving line. This line indicates that the sign is evil. You think it is a bad omen, so you are alert and avoid this disaster. This is called having the will of heaven in the dark."

In fact, the sixth line that automatically appears in the three-dimensional hexagram in Yi Xingchen's mind when he calculates this hexagram, which prompts him to think from the sixth line and thus draw the conclusion that he is in danger. In fact, what he gets after adding time is actually the third line, just as Li Xuehao said just now. Yi Xingchen deliberately used the wrong algorithm to deliberately show that he was wrong. In fact, he wanted Governor Li to think that he was just a fool and hit the dead mouse. He didn't want the other party to know his true fortune telling skills.

Therefore, Yi Xingchen said with a panic look on his face: "So that's the case. I am still not good at learning skills. I am ashamed. Fortunately, Lord Li was protected by God and turned evil into good fortune and came to good fortune. He escaped this disaster."

Governor Li said: "It's not that I have the protection of God, but that you have a deep blessing. You are a blessing general. Didn't I just say it before? You are by my side, so I'm blessed. If you make a mistake, you can save my life. It can be seen that your blessing has also been affected by me. I was just a little bit of a minor injury, but I have to recover my life. It's all due to your blessing, hahahaha."

Yi Xingchen said with fear and said he didn't dare, only saying that he was a blind cat and met a dead mouse. The more Yi Xingchen said this, the more he felt that Governor Li felt that he was more trustworthy.

The guards who went to pursue Yan Bugui returned without success because the powerful guards around Governor Li were killed by Feng Shui Luoye. The guards with one head and one tail were just as good as Yan Bugui's light skills. They were not as good as Yan Bugui's. They had no choice but to come back in vain.

Governor Li did not scold these guards, just because he had something more important to do. He was thinking about this matter in his head and ordered to camp on the spot and collect the bodies of the soldiers who died in battle.

Governor Li did not enter the town and was stationed in the wild. All the people accompanying him were surprised. However, Governor Li used to lead troops to conquer the White Lotus Sect, and he did so much, so these personal guards were not surprised, so they set up camps and built pots to make rice.

After the central army tent was built, Governor Li called Yi Xingchen to the account to invite him to drink, but did not arrange for local officials and others to accompany him. They were the two of them in the tent. Yi Xingchen's first reaction was that Governor Li must have important secret matters to discuss with him.

After a few glasses of wine, Governor Li said: "Brother Yi, I won't call you your official position in private. I value your ability very much. I want to tell you the truth - would you like to do things under my hands?"

The governor is a second-rank super official. He is just around the corner to be able to do things like this high-ranking official. Of course, Yi Xingchen stood up without hesitation and bowed: "Yi is willing to follow the adults, and goes through fire and water without hesitation!"

Governor Li laughed and waved to him to sit down, saying, "I'm not not letting you work in the Jinyiwei. But this time, Jinzhou needs a capable assistant to investigate the White Lotus Sect. So I want to temporarily draw you to do things for me. You have experience in fighting with the White Lotus Sect before. This time, I saved my life with a blessed fate, which means that we are destined to be together. Moreover, it is precisely because of this fate and luck that I think it can play a great role in investigating the White Lotus Sect. After the investigation and punishment of the White Lotus Sect in Jinzhou is completed, I will tell you the commander of the Jinyiwei to be promoted to your official position. Don't worry, I will guarantee you to be satisfied."

Yi Xingchen couldn't help but be overjoyed. If there is a governor's words, it's more reassuring than any guarantee. What else can hesitate? He quickly said: "Thank you for your support from the governor. Yi will do his best to do his best to live up to the governor's cultivation."

"Very good, I have an idea. As you said on the way, the White Lotus Sect's court has already banned it, so it is actually very easy to deal with them. If you show up, you will hit them. There is nothing vague. However, what I can't rest assured is actually the Heavenly Tribulation Sect. What I asked you to investigate is mainly to deal with them. Of course, if you can get news of the Maitreya Cult activities, you can also report me in time. But the main thing is to collect evidence of the Heavenly Tribulation Sect's ulterior motives and catch their real evil deeds. This is the main mission I have given you."

Yi Xingchen hurriedly bowed and agreed.

Governor Li said: "This time, all my bodyguards have been lost. I don't have few people to transfer, so I must get them from the capital immediately. In addition, if I enter Jinzhou directly now, the Tianjie Sect in Jinzhou will definitely not dare to move. Therefore, I will lead a team to Tunzhou early tomorrow morning. At the same time, I will tell you Ruan Baihu that I will transfer you to complete some tasks so that you can do things there with confidence. You disguise yourself in Jinzhou to find out the situation, find out the news, and then I will catch them all."

Yi Xingchen nodded and said, "I understand, follow the orders of the adults."

Governor Li said: "I will tell you Jinyiwei Duan Qianhu that he will order the Jinzhou Jinyiwei Yamen to obey your full command. The news you report should be reported to me at the fastest 800 miles. If you need to use the Jinyiwei force, they must cooperate with your order. You only need to send your waist card to issue instructions. They will obey your command, including their hundred households."

Yi Xingchen hurriedly agreed that if the local Jinyiwei had fully cooperated and could obey his own orders, it would be much more convenient to do things, and he would not be alone and in a dangerous place, and no one knew anything happened.

After the discussion, Governor Li picked up the wine glass and said, "Brother Yi, I will toast you three cups. The first cup is thankful for your life-saving grace. The second cup is for your success. The third cup is hoped that you will get your strong help from my little brother in the future." After that, Governor Li picked up the wine glass and drank three cups in a row.

Yi Xingchen felt that the governor was really generous. He was a second-rank official and valued him so much as a seventh-rank official, which made people feel a sense of mentorship. He hurriedly bowed to thank him, agreed repeatedly, and served the wine glass without hesitation.

Because the task was completed, I didn't let go of it. It would be fine if I was slightly drunk. Governor Li asked someone to prepare a carriage for Yi Xingchen and a set of casual clothes, so that he could set off overnight, so that he could avoid the eyes and ears. (To be continued)
