The Empress is running again

Chapter 182 The Divine Stone Cracked
Rong Jiuyue covered her mouth and yawned, staring sleepily at the split altar in front of her.

No, it should be said to be the sacred stone of Dingguo.

From Rong Jiuyue's point of view, it is a round stone with a long needle inserted in the middle of the stone to penetrate the stone. There are some complicated and incomprehensible words engraved on the stone surface, which seems very mysterious , but that's a rock.

"This sacred stone of pacification was obtained by Emperor Gaozu from a master outside the world when Fengchen founded the country. It is used to stabilize the country. It has stood on the altar of heaven for hundreds of years to protect my country, Fengchen, and the country. Ray was shattered..."

The person who spoke was Guantianjian of Three Dynasties, although his official position is not big, but his words carry a lot of weight. Before doing many major events in Fengchen Kingdom, Guantianjian will be asked to watch the sky at night to determine auspicious dates.

Rong Jiuyue rubbed her eyes. In thunderstorm weather, people may be struck by lightning without any shelter, not to mention the stone with an iron rod stuck in it.

Besides, this stone was placed on the viewing platform, which was an unobstructed place, and it was luck that it was only hit now.

But Rong Jiuyue would not be so stupid as to say this.

Quan Yin didn't say a word when he saw the Dingguo Divine Stone that was split in half.

"Master Hu thinks what should I do?"

"The old minister needs to calculate an auspicious day, and he must do it to apologize to the heavens."

"Okay, then there is Mr. Laohu."

"It is the honor of a veteran minister to serve the emperor."

After leaving Guantian Palace, Quan Yin did not go to Peach Blossom Pavilion, but directly went to Tenglong Hall.

After seeing Quan Yin leave, Rong Jiuyue held an umbrella with Ning Xin and prepared to leave.

Really speechless, there is nothing wrong with her at all, and I don't know why Quan Yin dragged her here together!
"Master, why did the Dingguo Divine Stone crack? It hasn't happened for hundreds of years."

"Who said no, it cracked once 200 years ago."

"Huh? It was also cracked 200 years ago?"

"That's right, but it wasn't struck by lightning back then, it was the divine stone that split open on its own!"

"Why did the good god stone crack!"

"I don't know, but after the sacred stone was cracked, Emperor Yongwu was revealed to have usurped the throne by murdering his father, and was beheaded by Emperor Baiple who was still King Dingkang."

"What nonsense! Can you say that too!"

"Yes, yes, the apprentice knows his mistake."

The movement in the house gradually subsided, Rong Jiuyue and Ning Xin walked down the stone stairs holding an umbrella.

"Zhaoyi..."

Back at Peach Blossom Pavilion, Ning Xin found that Rong Jiuyue had been in a daze.

"what?"

"What is Zhaoyi thinking? The servant called Zhaoyi several times but didn't hear it."

Rong Jiuyue shook her head and bit her lower lip. "It's nothing, it's just that I'm tired after not sleeping in the middle of the night, well, you should go down and have a rest."

"Yes."

Rong Jiuyue who was lying on the bed was very sleepy, but she suffered from insomnia.

Opening her eyes, there was darkness. She now had a feeling that a giant dark beast was gradually approaching the palace, and it only needed to wait for the right moment to devour everyone...

The fact that the Dingguo Divine Stone was shattered by lightning spread like wildfire in the palace, and almost all the officials in the court knew about it, but no one would be stupid enough to bring this up in the hall.

"Your Majesty, Sir Hu please see me."

"Let him in."

Although he was nearly seventy years old, Mr. Hu walked into the study with his back still straight.

"See Your Majesty."

"Get up."

"Your Majesty, I have already calculated the date, and it will be five days later at You Hour."

Five days later, it happened to be the day of the Empress Dowager's birthday banquet, which was two hours after the banquet.

Master Hu saw that Quan Yin hadn't spoken, so he continued: "Your Majesty, I have calculated that only the Youshi of that day is the best, and the cracking of the Dingguo Sacred Stone is the wrath of the sky, the Emperor must pay homage to the gods sincerely and faithfully. Dingguo God Shi Weichen has already found someone to repair it, and it will be fixed on that day."

"I see, Mr. Hu, let's prepare."

"Yes."

The empress dowager's birthday banquet should have been held a few days ago, but because of many things that happened, the empress dowager was not in a good mood, so the matter was put on hold.

But after Meng Changzai got well, the Empress Dowager ordered the people in Tiantian Temple to set an auspicious date, which happened to be the same day as the practice.

The Empress Dowager naturally also knew about the fact that the Dingguo Sacred Stone was split by lightning, and she was not at ease. She had no opinion at all about the date proposed by Mr. Hu, and only hoped that the ceremony would be successful.

"what!!"

Rong Jiuyue trembled as she walked in the yard, the voice came from the backyard.

It was Ning Xin's voice.

When Rong Jiuyue ran over, she found Ning Xin sitting on the edge of the well with a terrified expression on her face.

"What's wrong?" Rong Jiuyue stepped forward to help her up.

"Zhaoyi, yes, yes..." Ning Xin pointed at the mouth of the well with trembling fingers, her lips were trembling and she was speechless.

Rong Jiuyue walked to the mouth of the well curiously and stretched her neck.

"I rely on!"

She was so scared that goosebumps all over her body stood up!

Rong Jiuyue took a deep breath and stood over again.

On the edge of the wellhead, which was only half a meter wide, black bugs were densely crawling!

There are at least a thousand of them densely packed!

Rong Jiuyue squatted down to take a look when he was making sure that the bugs would not rush up.

When she got closer to see the appearance of those bugs, she gasped!
It's actually... a Gu worm!
Rong Jiuyue turned around and ran back to the house.

"Zhao, Zhaoyi?"

Rong Jiuyue returned to the house, and searched for a long time before finding a black porcelain bottle.

She picked up the porcelain bottle and ran back.

However, when she ran back to the well, those Gu worms were gone!

"Ning Xin, where are the bugs?"

Ning Xin shook her head ignorantly. "Slave, slave, no, I dare not look."

Rong Jiuyue took a wooden bucket and brought a bucket of water up.

The water was clean, there was nothing, not to mention the figure of half-divided Gu worms.

If Rong Jiuyue hadn't seen thousands of Gu worms on the wall of the well just now, she would have thought she was crazy!
"Those Gu worms must have entered the water." Those Gu worms should all look like adults, as long as they are not blind when using water, they can see.

But what if someone is blind?

Rong Jiuyue refused to think about this question in her heart.

She opened the porcelain bottle and sprinkled the powder into it. These powders were made by her later to prevent Gu insects. They contained ingredients that made Gu insects afraid. As long as you sprinkle these powders on your body or things, at least within a few months, those Gu worms can no longer get close to them.

"From today onwards, we will go to the Imperial Dining Room to get the ingredients and come back to make our own meals."

"Yes, the servant understands."

"Be careful when using water. If you are worried, sprinkle some medicinal powder into it."

"Yes."

Rong Jiuyue rubbed the center of her brows, damn it, the matter of escaping has to be put on the agenda!
