Chapter 57 Chicken in the Air
Yi Xingchen said: "I don't quite understand what the master means. I have already said that the last time I told the fortune teller, the owner of the White Lotus cannot find it. Even if I do another fortune teller, it will be useless. Because there is a saying in fortune teller, it is called 'one thing and one hexagram', which means that a thing can only be calculated once, but it will not be accurate if it is calculated again."
Peng Qingchen shook his head and said, "I didn't ask my brother to help me with another fortune and find the owner of the White Lotus. When my brother left that day, he reminded me that he wanted to find noble people and those who helped me to resolve this crisis. I want to ask my brother to help me with a fortune. Who should I find me to help me? To be honest, after hearing my brother's advice, I have been looking for people many times these days, but it's useless. Either they are unwilling to help or they are unable to help. Since my brother has given me some advice, can I tell me another fortune and see who should I ask for to help me? Please, brother."
After saying that, he reached out and took out a small ingot of silver from his arms and placed it in front of Yi Xingchen, saying, "This is two liang of silver, so it is the only one that is used as a hexagram. If my brother helps me through this disaster, I will thank you very much."
Yi Xingchen couldn't help but feel happy. Two taels of silver are equivalent to two thousand coins, how many fortunes do they have to calculate to make money? This is a fortune. In Yi Xingchen's silent memory, he has never received so much money since he learned to tell fortunes with his master.
Although Yi Xingchen was happy, his face was still faint, and he didn't even glance at the corner of his eyes. He looked at Peng Qingchen and said, "Sir, you are so polite. Since that's the case, I will calculate a fortune for you. If you can help you, it will be my honor."
When Yi Xingchen entered the house and told his master that he was going out, he had already calculated that Gongsun He would probably tell his fortune, so he brought a small bag of rice to tell him. At this moment, Yi Xingchen took out the rice bag and placed it on the table, and said to Peng Jincheng: "Since you have found many people to help you, but you can't speak or are unwilling to help, it means that it is difficult for you to find a noble person. But we can change the method, that is, since there is no one who can directly connect with your boss, we can find someone who can correct the person who says bad things behind your back. As long as you kill this person, you may also help you through this disaster. This is called a trick to remove the firewood from the cauldron.
Peng Qingchen's eyes lit up and he slapped heavily on his thigh: "Yes, why didn't I expect this move? Yes, that's great, then, Brother Yi, please help me with a divination and see who can help me kill the person who stabbed me in the back?"
"Who can help you that is the second step. The first step we want to know who is harming you? Can you be sure of this?"
Peng Qingchen smiled bitterly and said, "To be honest, brother, I offended a lot of people as the Jinyiwei. I think about it carefully. Who was making trouble behind me? After thinking about it, I still can't be sure. Why don't you, brother, please help me calculate first, who was stabbing me in the back?"
Yi Xingchen nodded and said, "Yes, you must first determine the person who messed with you, and then find a way to deal with him. I will tell you a hexagram first and see what the hexagram says. I have already said before that the fortune teller can only predict things through the hexagram, but cannot decide things. Therefore, unless the person is displayed on the hexagram, I can tell you that if the hexagram is not displayed, I cannot talk nonsense. You must understand this."
"I understand this. You have already told me clearly before. The hexagram really doesn't show it, so I can only accept my fate. But I think God will not be so cruel to me, please help me." After a few words, Peng Qingchen walked to the window, raised his hands above his head, looked up at the black night sky, as if he was praying to God. It took a long time before he put down his hands and walked back.
Yi Xingchen said: "You can pick up rice."
Peng Qingchen stood up, closed his hands respectfully and placed them in front of his forehead, praying silently in his heart, and then reached out to pick up three small pieces of rice and put them on the table.
Yi Xingchen counted the number, added the current time, got a hexagram, looked at the hexagram, pondered for a moment, and said, "From the hexagram, it is very consistent with your current situation, which means that this hexagram should be accurate."
Peng Qingchen swallowed nervously: "Brother Yi, how do you say the hexagram?"
"This hexagram is called Fengze Zhongfu hexagram. The hexagram that represents your body is Xunmu hexagram. The hexagram that represents that person is Duijin hexagram. Metal overcomes wood is a hexagram that is very bad. Moreover, when Duijin hexagram is a hexagram that overcomes the body, it means that he will slander you. Moreover, you will encounter trouble, because the upper nine lines of this hexagram say, "Hanyin climbs into the sky, Zhenwu." The translation means that when flying to an empty chicken, it will soon fall to the ground, which is dangerous. This is easy to understand. How far can the chicken fly? The chicken that flies into the air will of course land soon, which means that your black hat will not be long."
Peng Qingchen couldn't help but be stunned, his eyes were full of fear. After a moment, he hurriedly asked again: "Where is the hexagram showing who is the person who is pretending to me?"
Yi Xingchen pondered for a moment and said, "What represents the other party is the Dui hexagram. Judging from the hexagram, this person is good at speaking and eloquently. The strokes of the surname should contain the oral or golden radicals."
Peng Qingchen frowned, thought, and murmured: "Is it...? But there are several people who are not in the same way as me who have golden characters or mouth characters. Who is it?"
Yi Xingchen said: "From the hexagram, this person likes opera, and may have learned some knowledge of numerology."
As soon as he talked about this, Peng Qingchen couldn't help but lit up his eyes: "I have an enemy, the experience of Commander Wei, the surname is Wu. His name is with the word "mouth". He usually likes to sing operas and understands some numerology. He has never liked me. As long as it was because a case investigated by our Jinyiwei involved a relative, he once asked me for mercy, but I didn't give him face, and the man was executed in the end. So he always held a grudge against me. After hearing what you said, I can be sure that he was the one who made the matter. Because he had a good relationship with Pang Shibaihu of our Jinyiwei. I always thought that I had a good relationship with Pang Shibaihu, so I didn't expect that it was him who made the trouble behind me. After hearing what you said, I knew it in my heart."
Yi Xingchen said: "Since you have confirmed who it is, do you have a way to deal with him?"
When Peng Qingchen heard this, he was stunned and thought for a moment and said, "Wu Wen, this guy is in the army, and our Jinyiwei is not easy to interfere in checking him. Moreover, he is of the same grade as me, and has a good relationship with my boss, Pang Shibaijia. I really can't think of any way to deal with it. Brother, can you help me with a fortune teller and see if there is anyone who can help me?"
Yi Xingchen said: "It would be better to get his birth date and horoscope to call him, which would be more accurate."
Peng Qingchen said: "This is not difficult. I will send someone to check it immediately and it will be found soon."
Yi Xingchen said, "Okay, after you find out, you can come to me. I will tell you fortunes immediately. After the business is done, let's start eating."
Peng Qingchen said: "Okay, I'll go out to make arrangements first and come back to have a drink with my brothers. Maybe the news should be reported after we finish our meal."
Yi Xingchen was a little surprised and said, "You Jinyiwei is so efficient in doing things? Can you get the information in just one meal?"
Peng Qingchen smiled proudly: "If you don't even have this ability, why should the court support us like this?"
After saying that, Peng Qingchen quickly walked out and went downstairs. Yi Xingchen thought to himself that the Jinyiwei is worthy of being a famous spy agency and is decisive in his work.
Peng Qingchen came back soon and said with a smile: "Okay, it's already arranged. We two brothers will drink and have a meal. We will report it after a while. I just called two singers to sing and cheer up. We'll be here soon."
After a while, two young singers came, playing the piano and singing. Yi Xingchen was very interested in listening.
When he was full of wine and food, two Jinyiwei came in, bowed and bowed, handed a piece of paper to Peng Qingchen, and then retreated.
Peng Qingchen waved his hand to let the singer withdraw, then he opened the paper and looked at it, with a satisfied smile on his face. He handed the paper to Yi Xingchen. When Yi Xingchen saw it, it was indeed the birth date.
