Transmigrated To Another World: General, I'm Not Your White Moonlight - Chapter 151

Chapter 151: True Form Of The Calamity
Emperor Yong’an looked at You Xiaocheng and asked curiously, “Why do you ask this? Zhen doesn’t even have time to drink. There is no way Zhen could go out to check the weather.”

After saying this, Emperor Yong’an looked at Qiu Yuanbo, feeling dissatisfied. Sensing Emperor Yong’an’s gaze, Qiu Yuanbo lowered his head and pretended to be a statue.

Just when Emperor Yong’an and Qiu Yuanbo made eye contact, You Xiaocheng said, “Your Majesty, you’d better go out and take a look.”

Upon hearing this, Emperor Yong’an turned to look at You Xiaocheng. He touched his chin and thought, ‘What’s wrong with him today? He seemed eager to get me out to check out the weather. Wait a minute… Could it be—!’

As if he realized something, Emperor Yong’an stood up suddenly and rushed towards the door. Seeing him suddenly rushing out, Qiu Yuanbo quickly chased after him. The moment Emperor Yong’an opened the door, he looked up at the sky.

Looking at the black thunderclouds approaching from the far north, Emperor Yong’an’s heart sank. Seeing spider web-like lightning appearing from time to time in the thunderclouds and huge thunder sounds echoing in the sky, he knew that this should be the impending calamity predicted by You Xiaocheng.

While Emperor Yong’an looked at the approaching black thundercloud, he heard You Xiaocheng’s emotionless voice saying, “Your Majesty, that is the source of the disaster.”

Emperor Yong’an turned to look at him and asked, “You really can’t see what this calamity is?”

You Xiaocheng shook his head, paused for a second, and calmly replied, “Although I can’t see the true form of this disaster, looking at the source, I may be able to guess what it is.”

Upon hearing his words, Emperor Yong’an’s eyes lit up. Seeing the hope in Emperor Yong’an’s eyes, You Xiaocheng sighed. He turned to look at the dark thunderclouds and said, “Judging from current signs, this calamity may be floods and plagues.”

As soon as these words came out, the hope in Emperor Yong’an’s eyes disappeared instantly. He gritted his teeth, turned to look at the dark thunderclouds, and slowly repeated You Xiaocheng’s words, “Floods and plagues… This calamity is actually a flood and a plague.”

After repeating this sentence several times, Emperor Yong’an fell into silence. Standing a few steps behind Emperor Yong’an, Qiu Yuanbo clenched his hands tightly. He glanced at Emperor Yong’an worriedly, then turned to look at the dark thunderclouds in the distance.

After a long silence, Emperor Yong’an suddenly said, “Yuanbo, go and invite Yan Junwang and Xie Guogong to enter the imperial palace.”

Qiu Yuanbo clasped his hands, saluted Emperor Yong’an, and said, “Nucai accepts the order.”

After accepting Emperor Yong’an’s verbal decree, Qiu Yuanbo set out in a hurry to summon Xuan Ruiquan and Xie Yanghui.

You Xiaocheng stood beside Emperor Yong’an and said, “Since I have delivered the prophecy, I will take my leave first.”

Before he could take a step, Emperor Yong’an stopped him and asked, “Tai Shi, do you have any advice for Zhen?”

You Xiaocheng stared at him for a long time and said, “Your Majesty, just follow your heart. The destiny of the world has changed. As an emperor, you are favored by Heaven. What you do could save the Xia Empire.”

Leaving behind those words, You Xiaocheng left Yang Xin Palace. Emperor Yong’an stood on the high verandah of the imperial study, looking at You Xiaocheng, who walked out of the imperial study room. When You Xiaocheng disappeared from his sight, Emperor Yong’an raised his eyes and looked at the dark thunderclouds.

At the same time, Xuan Ruiquan was buried by works in his office. After returning from Yun Mountain, he went directly to the imperial palace to meet Emperor Yong’an. Later, he came to Dali Si to deal with the interrogation of the bandits and prepare for Duan Qinwang’s upcoming plan at the summer banquet.

He had not slept for more than four days and was in a very bad mood. Just as his headache was getting worse again, there was a knock on his office door.

Xuan Ruiquan rubbed his brow tiredly and said, “Come in.”

After getting his permission, someone opened the door and entered the office, which was filled with files and reports. Xuan Ruiquan was busy checking a report and didn’t raise his head when he said, “Speak.”

Jian Si placed a report on the table and said, “Master, this is the bandits’ interrogation records. Please take a look.”

Xuan Ruiquan put down the report he was reading and opened the interrogation record. Xuan Ruiquan read it and sneered, “They have really tight mouths.”

He closed the interrogation record, looked at Jian Si, and said, “No matter what method you use, I want their confession.”

As the captain of the Fourth Division, Jian Si’s main task is interrogation and punishment. With his skills and experience, he can extract any information from the prisoners without killing them.

Upon hearing Xuan Ruiquan’s order, Jian Si clasped his fists and said, “This subordinate accepts the order.”

After Jian Si left the office, Xuan Ruiquan leaned on the chair and closed his eyes.

He sighed, rubbed his sore eyes, and thought, ‘Time is running out. I have to finish handling the things here and go to Yunshan Village quickly. I can’t make any mistakes. Otherwise, the same thing will happen again in this life.’

While Xuan Ruiquan was resting, a simple horse carriage without any insignia stopped in front of the Dali Si. When the Jin Yi Army soldiers saw the horse carriage, a soldier guarding the entrance walked to the horse carriage.

He stood two meters away from the carriage, clasped his fists, and said, “Please return. No one is allowed to visit today.”

Not long after he said that, the carriage curtain was lifted from the inside. Qiu Yuanbo got out of the carriage and came down with the coachman’s help. As soon as the soles of his feet landed, Qiu Yuanbo felt many sharp eyes fall on him.
