Seeking Good Fortune and Avoiding Misfortune: Starting from the Blind Prince

“I wouldn't dare, Your Highness!”

“Empress, please don't embarrass this servant.”

“Qiu Lan, this matter, this palace can only entrust to you.”

“This… how… can this be?”

Qin Qiu Lan's pretty face was flushed red, like blood, or like the evening glow, even more娇艳 than the peach blossoms in March.

The Thirteenth Prince had been taken care of by her since he was a child. In her eyes, the Thirteenth Prince was a junior, a nephew.

How could she have that kind of thing happen with the Thirteenth Prince?

Consort Yun saw the shy look of the jade beauty in front of her and did not intend to change her mind.

“Qiu Lan, before the prince's wedding, there must be a trial marriage.”

“This palace, does not trust the other palace maids. The matter of the trial marriage can only be entrusted to you.”

“Ah? Your Highness, you are too…”

Qin Qiu Lan stammered.

Consort Yun seemed to know what Qin Qiu Lan wanted to say in her heart, and took the initiative to say it for her.

“What? Do you think this palace is too cautious?”

Qin Qiu Lan nodded.

Consort Yun was really too cautious about the trial marriage.

“Qiu Lan, this palace only has宸儿such a unique seedling, and cannot be careless.”

“Not to mention how many princes in the previous dynasty were ruined by palace maids with ulterior motives when they were young, and could not become men.”

“Even in this dynasty, Wei Wang, the seventh brother of Emperor Qian Yuan, wasn't he sucked dry of his power by the White Lotus妖女 who mixed into the palace as a palace maid, and became a useless person?”

“Although宸儿is not involved in the struggle for the throne, this matter of trial marriage must be prevented.”

Consort Yun said decisively, with a serious expression.

The prince's trial marriage is no small matter. Throughout the dynasties, many princes have been ruined by palace maids.

Because of the struggle for the throne, palace maids were instructed by other princes, which was one reason.

Some邪道cultivation methods require the help of dragon energy to break through bottlenecks, and it is easy to target marginal princes like Zhou Hao宸.

This is also her original intention in entrusting Qin Qiu Lan.

“Qiu Lan, this palace will not treat you badly after the trial marriage.”

“宸儿's 正妃, must be Miss Cui from the Cui family, but you will definitely have a place among the two concubines.”

Consort Yun took Qin Qiu Lan's jade hand and said誓旦旦.

“Concubine!”

“Empress… I am twelve years older than His Highness, it may not be suitable.”

“You don't have to worry about宸儿refusing. If he dares to bully you, you can tell this palace, and this palace will punish宸儿severely.”

Consort Yun had said so much, and could not allow Qin Qiu Lan to refuse.

“As the Empress wishes.”

……

Zhou Hao宸 did not know that as soon as he left, his mother had picked another wife for him.

After drinking two sips of fragrant tea, the Eight Trigrams Diagram in his sea of consciousness moved.

Golden light shone brightly, the Eight Trigrams flew, combined in pairs, forming a new hexagram.

[Water Ze: Superior luck, at 9:45 AM, go to the side gate of Kunning Palace, uphold justice, obtain one sixth-grade opportunity, obtain one fourth-grade opportunity, the fourth-grade opportunity can be expanded, great luck.]

[Thunder Earth: Medium luck, it is better to be still than to move, stay in the Jingqi Studio to drink tea, do nothing, no gain and no risk, 平.]

[Fire Wind: Medium-bad luck, at 9:45 AM, go to the side gate of Kunning Palace, help the wicked, get one sixth-grade opportunity, but plant the seeds of disaster, endless troubles, small misfortune.]

[Heaven Mountain: Inferior luck, at 9:45 AM, go to the back garden of Kunning Palace, learn secrets that should not be known, lose freedom, life and death are beyond your control, great misfortune.]

Four hexagrams, four choices!

Zhou Hao宸 raised his eyebrows and carefully looked at the hexagrams.

Staying in the Jingqi Studio and doing nothing, there will be no opportunity, and there will be no risk, it is a medium luck.

As for the superior luck and the medium-bad luck, they refer to the same thing.

It's just that because of your own choice, it will cause different consequences.

Upholding justice is superior luck.

You can also get two opportunities at the same time, one of which can be expanded. This is a hexagram that Zhou Hao宸 has never seen before.

Before, one hexagram corresponded to one opportunity, only this time.

Kill two birds with one stone!

This still needs to be chosen?

If you help the wicked, it is medium-bad luck.

The sixth-grade opportunity will still fall into your hands.

That is to say, as long as you go to the side gate of Kunning Palace at 9:45 AM, the sixth-grade opportunity will definitely fall into your hands.

Two different choices, the difference in the result lies in the fourth-grade expandable opportunity.

Upholding justice can get a fourth-grade expandable opportunity.

Helping the wicked, the fourth-grade opportunity disappears, and there will be endless troubles.

Seeing this, Zhou Hao宸 was quite curious, what is this fourth-grade expandable opportunity that can be transformed between opportunity and disaster.

As for the inferior luck, he saw things that should not be seen.

Zhou Hao宸 was not interested in knowing what the secrets that should not be known in the hexagrams were.

“Kunning Palace is the Queen's bedroom, could it be that the Emperor is having daytime淫 with the Queen? No, the Queen is in closed-door cultivation, and should not have time to have daytime淫 with the Emperor.” Zhou Hao宸 complained in his heart.

After sitting for a while, 9:45 AM arrived in the blink of an eye.

“Sister Hua Yuan, it's a bit stuffy in the room, help me go out for a walk.” Zhou Hao宸 ordered.

Hua Yuan had served Consort Yun for more than ten years. After Qin Qiu Lan left the palace to follow him, she served as Consort Yun's personal maid.

“Your Highness, the scenery in the back garden of Kunning Palace is very good, why don't I take you there to get some fresh air.”

If there was no hexagram prompt, Zhou Hao宸 might have agreed.

“Kunning Palace is the Queen's bedroom. I have not received a summons, so it is not suitable to go to Kunning Palace.”

“Hua Yuan, let's just walk along Kunning Palace.”

“Yes!”

Hua Yuan's voice, compared with Qin Qiu Lan, lacked a bit of elegance and dignity, and had a bit more of a清冷that did not eat human fireworks.

笃笃笃——

The sound of a cane tapping on the ground rang outside Kunning Palace.

Hua Yuan carefully supported Zhou Hao宸, and under Zhou Hao宸's faint guidance, the two came to the side gate of Kunning Palace.

The sound of punching and kicking filled the air.

“Xiao Linzi, hand over the things!”

“Don't even think about it! This is my treasure!”

“Treasure, the one with the biggest fist gets it!”

“Beat him!”

“Pry open his mouth.”

……

“Hua Yuan, what happened?” Zhou Hao宸 asked.

Although he had already seen the situation at the side gate of Kunning Palace, he still had to pretend in front of Hua Yuan.

“Reporting to Your Highness, it is three eunuchs from Kunning Palace who are bullying a newcomer.” Hua Yuan said in a low voice.

The little eunuch who was being ridden by three bullying eunuchs had a face that was blue and red, his clothes were torn in several places, and his body was covered in yellow mud.

How miserable!

“Hua Yuan, help me over.”

Hua Yuan helped Zhou Hao宸 walk over. The three bullying eunuchs were immediately scared when they saw Zhou Hao宸.

“Greetings, two noble people.”

“Who are you? Making noise in Kunning Palace!”

Zhou Hao宸 shouted sharply.

The majesty and seriousness of the prince's words exploded in the air.

The inherent dignity of this kind of prince directly scared the four little eunuchs.

A faint smell of urine filled the air.

“Reporting to Your Highness, Xiao Linzi stole a treasure from the Internal Affairs Office, and we were ordered to retrieve the treasure.”

The head of the bullying trio, a little eunuch with triangular eyes, said.

“Your Highness, don't listen to Xiao Dengzi's nonsense, this servant did not steal the treasure.”

“If it wasn't stolen, could it be that the treasure grew wings and flew into your hands?”

“I said I didn't steal it, that wooden sculpture was found by me in the trash discarded by the Internal Affairs Office.”

“Xiao Linzi, you still dare to quibble in front of His Highness?”

“Your Highness, please give Xiao Linzi a heavy sentence, he will definitely confess.”

When Xiao Linzi heard the words "heavy sentence", his face turned pale and his legs couldn't stop shaking.

The upholding justice in the hexagrams is about this matter?

Zhou Hao宸 suddenly understood.

Xiao Linzi gritted his teeth, made up his mind, and took out a strange wooden sculpture and placed it in front of Zhou Hao宸.

“Your Highness, this statue was found by this servant in the trash discarded by the Internal Affairs Office. It is quite magical.”

“Only a virtuous person like Your Highness is worthy of owning it.”

After Xiao Linzi took out the wooden sculpture, Zhou Hao宸 was stunned.

[Wooden Sculpture: Carved from the horn of a Thunder Beast, the person who carved it is really a waste of natural resources.]
