Listening to Qi Xiaomian's account, it indeed raised many suspicions. The faint Magic Breath in Dayu Palace was somehow connected to Dingzhou and the Wishing Stone. Everyone in the group had begun to believe him to some extent.
Huo Qi relayed what he had seen in Dingzhou and asked if that stone might be the source of the chaos, suggesting it would be better to destroy it. Not everyone regarded that stone as an omen of good fortune, especially within the Dayu Dynasty, where many opposed the Great Yu Emperor's decision to bring the massive stone into the capital. The court officials were somewhat fearful of the unknown, but the Great Yu Emperor remained resolute.
It was said that many people had died on the way while transporting the giant stone, which prompted the officials to protest once again. The Great Yu Emperor dismissed their concerns one by one and even issued several urgent edicts.
The doubts of Huayang Master regarding the Great Yu Emperor were also related to this matter. The Great Yu Emperor was warlike and autocratic, his actions bordering on tyranny. He had executed numerous Ministers but had never caused such suffering among his own people; yet he turned a blind eye to the casualties from transporting the stone.
The Great Yu Emperor was also known for his aversion to extravagance, with daily meals consisting of only six dishes and a soup. He forbade craftsmen from carving intricate designs for his tomb, insisting on simplicity and sturdiness. Yet this frugal emperor had constructed the Stargazing Tower with exquisite craftsmanship and invested a large sum into transporting the stone. According to Huayang Master’s inquiries at the Ministry of Revenue, what was once a relatively prosperous treasury had recently become strained.
Many had witnessed the drawbacks brought by the giant stone, and some shared your sentiments about wanting to destroy it, taking action without exception—none returned unscathed.
In half a month, the giant stone would enter the capital. We planned to determine whether there was an issue with the Great Yu Emperor before making further arrangements.
When will you two meet? This was Sang Qingxiao's first question upon reuniting with him.
Qi Xiaomian hurriedly explained that it wasn't him who would meet her; it was all part of a performance.
I’m not deaf, Sang Qingxiao interrupted him. Which specific day?
In eight days, we will have close contact with the Great Yu Emperor.
So that means in nine days, you will hold an Official Title?
Qi Xiaomian immediately denied it. No, this performance ends on the eighth day.
Li Cu was puzzled. The giant stone is almost entering the city; why do you still have patience to wait eight days?
The Ministry of Rites calculated a date for us; we must complete the performance as planned. Even if we are anxious, we cannot change it to avoid alarming any strange occurrences in the palace.
Li Cu asked again, you mentioned that the Great Yu Emperor is an autocratic person; what if he does not follow through with the customary blessings before marriage?
Doubts about the Great Yu Emperor were growing among court members. Huayang Master had secretly contacted them and discussed that whatever methods they needed to employ must be executed to promote this matter—even if it meant forcing a palace coup.
Isn't that too severe?
The worst-case scenario has been considered; it shouldn't come to that. The other princes on opposing sides began showing support after hearing this news; now it seemed as if the entire court was gathering strength for action.
Great Yu EmperorNo matter how arbitrary you are, you don’t have to provoke public anger just for a small blessing. A few people discussed the matter posted by Dayu Dynasty, and Huo Qi finally proposed that I have been in the demon clan for a long time, and I know at least seventy-seven or eighty-eight of the races among them. Let’s divide our troops into two groups. You guys? When I go to the capital, I will look at the huge stone. If I can see his true face, I will be more confident when I take action. Qi XiaomianObjection, I’m not at ease if you go alone. Before I finished speaking with Silly Beast, Misha spoke to me. I am with you. The boulder is surrounded by people. Although you have not merged with Demon Bone, but what if, if it feels threatened by you, The common people are its hostages. Therefore, if you look at it from a distance, it is reasonable for me, a monk, to get closer and take a closer look after hearing about these strange stones. Huo Qi muttered, you are still a Qilin, and the pressure on you is even greater. My Buddha Dharma is great, but my unicorn body is lacking. The Buddha's ability can cover up my demonic nature. Moreover, my Dharma has restraint on the devil. If it is really noticed, I also have a Method to buy time for myself and the people around me to escape. Finally, we agreed that Huo Qi and Misha will go to find the giant stone, and the others Enter the capital. Shengjing City is divided into two cities, the inner and outer cities. The rich and the poor are separated by this. Qi Xiaomian arranged a few people in a house in the outer city next to the inner city. The wonderful thing is that there is land in the house and can be directly connected to Qi Xiaomian Inner city accommodation. Almost without stopping, one person went from the ground to the inner city. Wen XingguiI don’t know when he came. He walked back and forth in the inner city house. As soon as he saw Qi Xiaomian, he rushed over and murmured, No, everything is wrongQi Xiaomian I don’t really believe this, I’m just perfunctory, what did you figure out? Wen Xinggui Urgent, it has nothing to do with divination, it’s Stargazing Tower, Great Yu Emperor actually won’t let me enter Stargazing Tower! Isn't your work done? Why go in again? Wen Xinggui participated in the design of the Feng Shui and formations in the building according to the requirements of Great Yu Emperor, which was completed ten days ago. To prevent mistakes, I calculated every day and felt that some small changes needed to be made, so I petitioned Great Yu Emperor, but he strictly prohibited me from entering. I also asked to see him and explain it to him face to face, but he refused. Ignore me.
