On the way home, Gu Rujiu deliberately looked around and found that not only the rats and dogs were frantic, but also the birds and beasts in the forest seemed to be extraordinarily lively.On the way, even snakes and rabbits suddenly came out of the grass, which made the heart more Uneasy.
Gu Changling, who was a noble family from birth, did not perceive the inappropriateness at the beginning.Until he saw a fish jumping suicidely from the roadside paddy field to the shore, he realized that something was wrong.
He is a scholar. When something strange happens, he does not think it is unknown or condemned like ignorant women and children, but speculates that it may be caused by the sultry climate.
Today's weather is extremely sultry, as if tossing people into the steamer, otherwise he will not take his children to Beizhuang, how can I know that Beizhuang is not cool, and must endure the piercing cry of the poultry dogs.
Gu Zhiyuan, who is half a horse behind Gu Changling, frowned more and more tightly. Since he was born, he has never encountered such a strange thing, which is inevitable.
"Father ..." When he saw several squirrels coming out, he finally couldn't help but speak.
"Go back and talk," Gu Changling sullenly patted the horse under him with a whip. "Speed up and go back."
Gu Rujiu noticed that the carriage was speeding up, and she felt a little worried in her heart, and felt relieved again. Fortunately, the father and the brothers also felt something was wrong, so she could speak after she returned.
She was suspicious of the plague at first, but there was no flood or drought in Beijing, and because this is where the family and the royal family gather, various epidemic preventions are carried out every year, so if this is the case, you should not be too worried.
What really worried her was not the plague, but the earth dragon turned over.
Although there is no record of the ground movement in Beijing in Geography, the movement and collision time of the plates may sometimes be thousands of years or even tens of thousands of years apart. Who knows whether the territory of Beijing is in the seismic zone? on?
But did she ask her to tell her father what an "earthquake zone" is? It doesn't work at all. What's more, if she guesses wrong, it's not an earthquake at all? Who dares to go out and talk about such panic-prone things?
Gu Changling hurried back home with his children, and as soon as he entered the inner courtyard, he was stopped by the daughter who followed him.
"Dad," Gu Rujiu dragged Gu Changling's sleeves, and his big eyes were full of confusion: "I once read" Anecdote "saying that birds do not return to their nests, rats are ruined, and muddy water is boiling. It was a sign that the sleeping dragon turned over. Today I saw on the road ... "
"Anecdote ..." Gu Changling looked at her lovely daughter, and her heart was shocked. There is indeed such a description in "Anecdote". Does what you see and hear today match the description in the book?
"Anecdote" is one of Gu's collections, which describes many strange and weird things, and the earth dragon is one of them.
I hurried through to find "Anecdote" and found something about the turn of the earth dragon. Gu Changling's expression has always been very dignified. He knew nothing about this matter, and no one would know. But if the ground motion really happened, he was afraid that he would be uneasy for the rest of his life. But if they reported it, causing the people in the capital to panic, but in the end the ground motion did not happen, then their Gu family would be in trouble.
There is a dilemma between advancing and retreating. Gu Changling pinched the yellowed book in his hand and stood still.
"Daddy."
He looked back and saw the young girl standing behind the door, but her head stretched out, showing a small white face, "Dad, what's wrong with you?"
Gu Changling walked over to her daughter and squatted down to stare at her daughter. Her warm palm touched the swirling hair above her head: "If one thing succeeds, it may save the people in the whole city. If it fails, it may involve our family. , What do you say? "
There is no complete plan at all for this matter. The only way to report or not to report is to alarm the whole city, but not to report ... It is to watch the whole city as a catastrophe.
Having said this, he couldn't help but smile when he saw his daughter in doubt. She was still a child. Although she was the first to guess that it might be moving, she knew how terrible it was.
"Just do it if you want to," Yang didn't know when she had reached the door. She looked at the man who had been in the same boat for twenty years with her smile. "Even if it fails, it's just you and two children. It is impossible to re-enter the DPRK as an official. At that time, our Gu ancestors could rise and fall the entire family when the Gu family had nothing, and our children and grandchildren could naturally do the same. "
Gu Changling looked up at his wife, and her son and daughter-in-law were behind her. Obviously they all knew what had happened.
"Father," Gu Zhiyuan and Gu Cunjing walked in front of Gu Changling, and said together, "Gu's boy, he puts the people first."
"Okay, okay, okay!" Gu Changling even said three good words, showing pride on his face, "If you have a son, why don't you worry about my family."
"Hmm," Gu Rujiu also nodded. "We exchanged a few for the majority, and we made it." She shook Gu Changling's clothes and shook, "And I believe my father can't go wrong."
"Good girl believes in dad so much?" Gu Changling's heart was much easier, and Gu Rujiu showed a big smile, "Then wait for dad to come home."
After Gu Changling took the book into the palace, Yang began to get busy, while letting his servants move the valuables out of the storehouse, and then drove them to the suburbs.
Seeing the Gu family in such a big movement in the capital, it was a little bit inexplicable. Is this moving or something? Everyone is going out in the suburbs?
The Chen, Hu, Yang, and Zhang families who were married to the Gu family also received news from the Gu family. Although they were skeptical, seeing the Gu family as solemn and serious, it was impossible to believe it. Believe in his mindlessness, he packaged several highly regarded juniors and sent them to the Gu family out of town.
The sky gradually darkened, and the juniors of Gu's family and relatives sat in a temporary shed, watching the starry sky of the moon star with no sleep.
What's even more strange is that in the suburbs where chickens and dogs barked in the morning, there was no sound at all, and even the sound of insects could not be heard.
Yang's family stayed in a shed with her female relatives, and there was no panic and panic in her eyes.
"Mother, regarding the news of the possibility of moving, the emperor has sent people quickly and vigorously to all parts of the capital, and the villages in the suburbs of Beijing have already begun to have prevention," Gu Zhiyu rushed out of the city with dust, his face There was a bit of tiredness, "It's just that some families haven't moved yet, and there have been rumours about his father's alarmist talk in the capital." After he finished, he handed a notice posted by Qin Tianjian.
"Don't worry about these rumors," Yang took a sip of refreshing tea, and the tea was already cold, but in this environment, she didn't pay much attention to it. "I care for my family, but I have no doubts."
Gu Rujiu was sitting next to the Yang family, and had no intention of chatting with other relatives' little girls. When she noticed that there was no sound at all for four weeks, she became more and more nervous, and could not help praying secretly, hoping that these ground movements would not be too serious, and the fracture zone would not be too long, to minimize casualties.
Taking care of others, she took a look at the notice brought back by her elder brother and thought it was very mythical.
The general notice is that the emperor dreamed of his ancestor the day before yesterday. The ancestor said, I see you are a very good heir, so I dreamt to tell you that you have to prepare in advance for major events in Beijing and China. When the emperor woke up, he was very uneasy. It happened that Qin Tianjian watched the celestial phenomenon recently and found that there was a sign of earth dragon in Beijing. At this time, Ningping Hou also found that the chickens and dogs jumped, the fish jumped, and the water was muddy, and so on, so I hereby notify everyone to carefully turn over the dragon in the past two days to take precautions.
This notice has two key points. The first point is that even if a ground motion occurs, it has nothing to do with the emperor. Otherwise, why would the ancestors deliberately cast dreams on the emperor and give early warning? It can be seen that the ancestors are blessing the emperor and the Dafeng Dynasty.
The second point is, don't stay in the house if you are afraid of death. It is terrible to turn the earth dragon.
As for Qin Tianjian and her father, it was just the weight that made the people more convinced that there might be ground movement.
After another two hours, there was still no movement. The juniors sent by the Zhang family were very sleepy, but this simple shed made them unable to sleep at all. But despite their dissatisfaction, they did not dare to reveal half of the face.
Their family can only be regarded as the last class of the third-class family, and they can be married to the eldest daughter of Gu Houye, who is already Gao Pan. Which one outside does not envy their family's godsons and can ask for the marriage of Gu's daughter?
So in front of Gu's family at this time, they are all very polite and try their best to be polite and humble, so as not to lose Zhang's face.
In the palace, Empress Zhou, Martingale, Gu Changling and several other ministers of the North and Central China were sitting or standing on the open space outside the Qintian prison. In front of them was a ground motion instrument made of pure copper. Tail did not move at all.
Jin Yang insisted that Gu Changling's words were under great pressure. He knew that this move was very risky and might even offend some families. But if the ground motion really happened, and he did nothing, then the result would be even worse.
He didn't want to be the emperor "condemned by heaven" in history.
It was more than half the night, and there was still no movement in the earth movement instrument. The eyes of several heavy officials looking at Gu Changling were getting worse and worse. Even Zhang Zhonghan said: "Brother Shou, I think this is just a misunderstanding. At that time, the emperor had just recovered from his illness, and stayed outside for a night, fearing that he might hurt his body, it might as well ... "He didn't say anything, and felt the sole of the foot tremble.
"Dong Dang Dang." On the seismograph, the copper beads in the mouth of Jinlong Feifeng successively fell into the copper plate below.
Jin Yang stood up fiercely from the chair. At this time, the earth began to tremble violently. If Bai Xian and Mr. Gu were behind him, he almost fell to the ground.
The whole world thundered, as if suddenly falling into purgatory.
