The Imperial astronomer replied. He quickly stood up and began to divine the heavenly fate.
“Your Majesty, there’s a strange phenomenon in the sky. Dark clouds cover the sky and thunder rolls. This is clearly the descent of a star of misfortune. Your Majesty, this is a great omen, a sign that will bring disaster to the country.”
The Imperial astronomer’s declaration that a jinx was about to descend upon the world and bring calamity to the country instantly caused a huge uproar on the Jade Phoenix platform.
The emperor’s expression changed drastically, and he cried out in panic.
“Investigate, immediately find out who has the body of misfortune, the star of disaster is coming.”
“Yes, Your Majesty.”
As soon as the Emperor gave the order, the black clouds above their heads retreated at a speed that everyone could see with their naked eyes.
The thunderbolts and lightning were getting further and further away.
In the end, the sky above them was still bright and sunny, as if the previous scene had never happened.
However, the previous scene was still firmly etched in everyone’s mind.
This was especially so when he thought about what the Imperial astronomer had said about the body of misfortune and the star of disaster.
Many people were extremely panicked. Who was the body of misfortune, the star of disaster?
If qintian found out that this person was the body of misfortune, one could only imagine what kind of ending he would have.
While everyone was thinking in a panic, the Emperor had already looked at the Imperial astronomer with an ugly expression and ordered.
“Investigate, investigate immediately. The person with the body of misfortune is clearly in the Jade Phoenix platform. Otherwise, the heavens wouldn’t have given such a warning. If you find out who has the body of misfortune, immediately tie them up and burn them as a sacrifice to the wrath of heaven. ”
The words “tie him up and burn him with fire” and “sacrifice him to the heavens” angered everyone on the Jade Phoenix platform.
On the Jade Phoenix platform, the Imperial astronomer did not have the time to speak after the Emperor finished speaking.
He saw a few panting eunuchs running over from a tunnel in front of the Jade Phoenix platform. One of them quickly reported.
“Your Majesty, bad news. The long Qian Palace has been destroyed by the lightning.”
“Your Majesty, long autumn Palace has been destroyed.”
“Your Majesty, the long Pavilion Hall has been destroyed.”
Before the eunuch could finish his report, another person rushed over from the tunnel in front, panting heavily. He knelt down and cried out.
“Your Majesty, it’s not good. The Yingchun Palace has been blown up. The seventh Princess, who lives in the palace, has fainted from the explosion. She’s still unconscious even now. Even her mother, Xia Guiren, has fainted from the explosion.”
The crowd on the Jade Phoenix platform was shocked again. The emperor’s expression turned uglier and uglier. He panted heavily and then ordered his men.
“Bring Xia Guiren and the little princess over.”
The seventh Princess was the youngest princess in the royal family. She was only six years old.
Although the seventh Princess was born of Xia Guiren, Xia Guiren was the most favored noble in the palace. The little seventh Princess was also doted on. No one expected that this calamity would affect Xia Guiren and the seventh Princess.
One could only imagine how furious the Emperor would be.
Everyone quickly raised their heads to look at the Emperor. As expected, the emperor’s face was covered in dark clouds and he was extremely angry.
A eunuch had already rushed out of the Jade Phoenix platform to bring Xia Guiren and the seventh Princess.
In the Jade Phoenix platform, the Emperor had already ordered the Imperial astronomer in anger.
“Investigate immediately. I want to burn the person who finds out about this body of misfortune immediately …”
The Imperial astronomer didn’t dare to be careless and quickly replied,””Yes, this Minister will follow your orders.”
After the Imperial astronomer stood up, he immediately ordered the eunuchs to set up an incense table and jade platform. Then, he invited the seven-colored misfortune butterfly.
It was rumored that this misfortune butterfly liked people with bad luck the most, but it usually slept in a thousand-year-old wooden box. No matter how you summoned it, it would not wake up.
It would only wake up from the box and fly towards the person with bad luck if they were present.
