Otaku Engineer in Great Tang Dynasty

Chapter 47: Father and son talk at night, shocking prophecy!

Views:

Li Zexuan entered the study, closed the door, and found that his father was already sitting on the bench, holding a teacup, waiting for him.

Li Zexuan sat on the other side unceremoniously and poured himself a cup of tea. Drinking a cup of tea after a meal is good for digestion.

Father Li couldn't help but feel a little angry when he saw his son's heartless look, and said, "Xuan'er, how did you and the prince know each other?"

Hey, it seems that dad is still worried about the prince, his mentality is unstable.

Li Zexuan put down his tea cup and told his father about his encounter with the prince on the way to the West Market and the invitation for the prince and Cheng Chumo to have dinner together at Zuixianlou. Mr. Li stroked his beard and digested it for a while before saying:

"Xuan'er, you must behave yourself in front of the prince, pay attention to the etiquette of the emperor and his ministers, and never behave as casually as you do at home. As the saying goes, accompanying a king is like accompanying a tiger. If you offend the prince, your father and I will not be able to save you."

Thinking of that little brat Li Chengqian, Li Zexuan couldn't do anything if he was forced to nod and bow down to him, being arrogant in front and respectful in the back. However, Father Li's words were also for his own good. Li Zexuan was too lazy to explain, so he could only respond vaguely:

"Dad, don't worry. The prince and I regard each other as friends, and he will not use his status to suppress me."

Father Li glared: "That cannot go beyond the etiquette of monarchs and ministers. What if one day the prince settles accounts with his wife?"

"Yes, yes, dad is right. Children, listen to dad." In order to avoid being lectured by dad all the time, Li Zexuan quickly nodded in agreement.

Seeing his son's kindness and knowing that he didn't listen, Father Li snorted angrily and didn't bother to persuade him any more. He retreated and said:

"Why did your Qiquge only give the prince 30% of the shares? Why do you have no idea about the superiority and inferiority? You can give the prince 30% of the shares tomorrow. Our family is not short of money. There is really no need to offend him for this." Prince."

Dad was going to touch his own cheese. Li Zexuan immediately jumped to his feet and said anxiously:

"No, the prince himself has agreed to this condition of sharing. Dad, why are you here to join in the fun? Aren't you in a hurry if the emperor is not in a hurry?"

"You little bastard, you dare to talk to your father like this, it seems your skin is itchy again."

Father Li was so angry that he blew his beard and stared, and he was about to get up and hit someone in anger.

Li Zexuan immediately stood up and dodged, shouting while dodging: "Mom, help me, my father is going to kill me out of justice."

Father Li was even more furious and jumped up and down in anger. At this moment, a cough came from outside the study.

"Ahem!"

Li Zexuan recognized it. This was her mother's voice.

Sure enough, she saw her mother pushing the door open and entering. After Mrs. Li came in, she gave Father Li a cold look, then sat directly next to him and said to Father Li:

"I think you want to sleep in the study again? What can't you say to Xuan'er? Xuan'er is so old, how can you still hit and scold him? How can you behave like this?"

Father Li lost his temper instantly, sat back like an angry little wife, and drank tea in a muffled voice.

Li Zexuan saw that the atmosphere was a little stiff at this moment, so he laughed dryly "hehe" and stepped forward to reason with his father:

"Dad, the Qiqu Pavilion is my first business. In the future, its scale will definitely surpass that of the Tang Dynasty. The fact that I gave 30% of my shares to the prince is already a lot. Why haven't you understood it yet?"

Father Li obviously felt that his son was bragging, and he sneered twice, indicating that he didn't believe it.

Li Zexuan said helplessly:

"Dad, if you don't believe it, then let's wait and see. Besides, the kid also wants to tell his father something today!"

Father Li swallowed his tea and said angrily: "What can happen to you?"

It seems that the father is very resentful. Li Zexuan said awkwardly:

"Dad, in addition to the skills I told you before, my master is also proficient in divination. Did you know?"

Father Li glared and said, "How would I know? Besides, why are you telling your father this?"

Li Zexuan patiently said:

"Dad, when the child was seven years old, I overheard my master saying that it was the fourth day of June in the ninth year of Wude (Li Zexuan certainly didn't know the specific month and day. This was what he overheard Xiao He say after returning home). , Xuanwumen will be filled with mountains of corpses and seas of blood.

The child didn't know what it meant at that time. It was only after my master passed away and I came down from the mountain that I learned what happened on that day in the ninth year of Wude. "

Li's father and Li's mother were shocked when they heard this. They had been living in Chang'an, so they naturally knew what happened on the fourth day of June last year. The incident happened to be at Xuanwu Gate. This matter has now become a taboo for the people of Tang Dynasty, and no one dares to mention it in public.

Mrs. Li stood up and said anxiously: "Xuan'er, are you serious about this?"

Li Zexuan nodded solemnly and said, "Children don't dare to lie to their parents."

Although Father Li was shocked, he was still a little confused and asked: "So what if your master has the ability to predict the future? What is the purpose of telling your parents this?"

Li Zexuan stood up, put his hands behind his back and said slowly: "After the child came down from the mountain, he became even more worried after knowing that the master's prediction came true, because the master left a prophecy before his death."

Father Li was a little nervous at the moment and asked hurriedly: "What prophecy?"

Li Zexuan brewed his emotions for a while and said in a low voice:

"My master said that in June of the second year of Zhenguan, a massive and unprecedented locust plague would occur in the Tang Dynasty. At that time, locusts would swarm over the sky, pour down on the ground, and sweep across the entire Guanzhong Plain. The place where the locusts passed was the Red Earth. Thousands of miles away, not even a blade of grass grows, and all crops will be destroyed by locusts.

The Tang Dynasty will suffer a catastrophe that will destroy the world and destroy the world. Thousands of people will starve to death due to lack of food. It will not be surprising to change their sons to eat. "

The two elders were both stunned by this shocking prophecy and were speechless for a long time.

Mrs. Li has always been kind-hearted and hates seeing others suffer. At this time, the miserable scene described by Li Zexuan touched her weak heart, and her eyes suddenly turned red.

Mrs. Li wiped the corner of her eyes and asked sadly: "Xuan'er, did your master say that there is a way to resolve this locust plague?" She still held a glimmer of hope in her heart.

Li Zexuan shook his head slowly and said: "My master said at that time that in the ninth year of Wude, even if the Turks attacked near Chang'an, it would not be terrible. The Tang Dynasty had its own wise king to resolve this disaster.

But the locust plague in the second year of Zhenguan was the biggest test for the newly peaceful Tang Dynasty. No one can resolve it. We can only rely on ourselves to fight for our fate! "

Father Li looked a little sad at this moment, shook his head and said with a bitter smile: "Oh, how can a mortal like me compete with God for our fate!"

Mrs. Li also nodded sadly.

The ancients have always maintained a sense of awe towards God. In their view, the locust plague coming to the world is God's punishment to the world. How can mortals resist it? Man, after all, cannot defeat God.

Li Zexuan couldn't help but shook his head when he saw that his father and mother were resigned to their fate and had no fighting spirit. It seemed that his task tonight was a bit heavy. He had to cheer up his father and mother. He couldn't complete this plan alone.

My eyes feel really uncomfortable today. I feel like my eyes are full of black shadows. I think I overused my eyes. I’ll just update it today. I’m sorry. Damn it, I can't see clearly when I look at the computer now. I want to take leave and go back to rest, but I'm afraid of being scolded by my boss, so I can only hold on.
