The Eye of Heaven

The matter of the City Boundary Map had been delayed as such, but because of Lin Zhizhao’s words, the past few days Mo Linyuan’s mood wasn’t very good, he even went as far as to developing strange thoughts. Was it possible that as long as he got the treasure, Ye Mu would disappear? If it was like this, he would rather not want anything!

While he was having these kinds of thoughts, the person who went to investigate Lin Zhizhao returned. He not only investigated Lin Zhizhao thoroughly but also brought unexpected information.

“Your Majesty.”

“No need for courtesy, just speak.”

Mo Linyuan, who was sitting in front of the long dragon table, frowned, and then listened to Zi Xu say, “The one who investigated said, Lin Zhizhao was actually the disciple of a very famous feng shui great master, and also the last disciple. But what was unexpected is, before that feng shui master died, he was expelled from the master’s home and also spread the news to the outside that no one was allowed to let him practice feng shui. Because the feng shui great master was extremely famous, in the city where Lin Zhizhao grew up, not one person dared to use him. His life was spent extremely down on luck, he couldn’t afford three meals.

“After that, the great master died. Lin Zhizhao insisted on giving him filial piety for three years, then left his birthplace. He went to Yuan city, and only then did he show people his feng shui. There was little accuracy then, so his reputation was bad. But there was one thing that he saw very accurately, and that is, whose house has dead people, when they die, which house has a dying person. So, in Yuan city, he should be a person whose existence everyone shouted at. There was no other way, he came to the capital and just happened to see the imperial notice.”

Mo Linyuan listened, the space between his eyebrows tucked in. So is this person a liar, or does he really have skills? This investigation only seemed to make it more confusing.

On the other side, Ye Mu secretly monitored Lin Zhizhao and even saw him eat and sleep, then sleep and eat. She didn’t know life was so natural and unrestrained.

It was when Ye Mu was feeling very bored that Lin Zhizhao suddenly said, “The young miss* who’s been watching me, it’s boring for me to drink alone ey, want to come down and join me?”

*姑娘 (gū niang) – LZZ has been calling her xiao jie

Ye Mu was taken aback because she was called a young miss. She felt somewhat strange. She jumped down from the beams.

“How do you know I’m around?” This person shouldn’t know martial arts, and she also didn’t have any special scent on her body.

Lin Zhizhao said with a smile, “This is a secret. If you accompany me to drink, I’ll tell you!”

Ye Mu sat in front of him suspiciously. A second after she sat down, a full cup of wine was handed over in front of her. From the smell of it, it was that kind of inebriating vintage wine.

He tilted his head for another cup and then smacked his lips. “Good wine, truly a good wine! Only in an imperial palace would there be such good wine! Too bad, Mo Country’s royal bloodline has declined, these kinds of good wine placed in a wine cellar would surely accumulate dust! It’s a pity, such a pity!”

Ye Mu couldn’t help laughing. “You actually dare to say that. His Majesty has wanted to kill you for so long, can you not have such a loose tongue?”

Lin Zhizhao looked at Ye Mu with a genial smile. “Isn’t there still you? I believe you won’t let His Majesty kill me! So I have nothing to fear*!”

*because he’s got a strong backing (Ye Mu)

Ye Mu slightly smiled. “Since I’m helping you like this, shouldn’t you tell me the truth?”

Lin Zhizhao seemed tipsy, but he very generously said, “Ask away! I guarantee I’ll tell you all I know without reservation!”

Ye Mu slightly raised her eyebrows. “Then I’ll ask, you said you saw that I’m about to die?”

Lin Zhizhao nodded.

“Then, did you make it out*, or did you figure it out?”

*“ see” or something similar maybe could work – I’m using “make it out” to match the latter because Ye Mu uses similar phrases here which have a similar meaning, she just changed one Chinese character.

“This…” Lin Zhizhao’s vigor shook. “Is there any difference?”

“Of course there is!” Ye Mu laughed. “Making it out means the heavens showed you. Figuring it out means there’s a possibility that it’s wrong. So, tell me the truth!”

Lin Zhizhao was somewhat at a loss as he listened. He didn’t expect his own secret would be caught by someone so quickly?

But he looked at Ye Mu, eyes clear and bright, mind bighearted. It was as if telling her would cause no harm!

So he moved closer and said beside Ye Mu’s ear in a small voice, “Actually, I make it out. Ever since I was small I have had a strange gift, which is being able to see qi!”

Qi?”

“Yes!” Lin Zhizhao lowered his voice. “It’s the gray color of death qi. If I see that someone has it, then, they’re definitely not far from death! Before I didn’t know I had this ability, seeing whose body carries this ghostly gray color, I even thought it’s my own blurry eyesight. After that I tested multiple times, then I knew this thing is for real!”

Ye Mu felt extremely awed, she didn’t think this person would have this kind of ability? This could be regarded as an extraordinary talent, right?

Lin Zhizhao saw Ye Mu’s expression and couldn’t help saying, “How are you not scared at all? These eyes of mine have never predicted wrongly!”

Ye Mu forced a smile. “What will feeling scared do? Things happen, you just have to solve it. Could it be that being scared will solve the problem?”

Lin Zhizhao was stunned. He looked at the expression in Ye Mu’s eyes, and became somewhat different.

“Also, having lived until this time, the number of fate being changed is not so little anymore. Since fate can be changed, then there’s no need to be afraid.”

But Lin Zhizhao shook his head. “Have you never heard of this phrase? Called ‘reaching the same goal by using different means’*. I don’t know what fate you’ve changed, but carefully think again, have you really changed those people’s outcome?”

*殊途同归(shū tú tóng guī) – idiom

Ye Mu suddenly was taken aback. She suddenly thought of Ye Li, thought of Wu Sheng, thought of Zhao Yunqin. Did she not change their fates?

For a moment, she was deep in her thoughts. In the past, after being defeated, Ye Li committed suicide by cutting his throat, and in fact, Ye Li died in front of her. And Wu Sheng, the past didn’t show Wu Sheng’s ending, so she also didn’t know what bad ending he got after Zhao Yunqin’s defeat.

As for Zhao Yunqin, in the past, she went to the temple to practice Taoism, and in reality, she actually did go to the temple to practice Taoism!

Thinking this, Ye Mu stood, suddenly feeling a chill! Has she changed it, or has she not changed it?

Lin Zhizhao drank some wine, and softly said, “I’ve also met a person whose fate changed before, but actually, they didn’t change it, they only deceived themselves.”

Ye Mu listened, her whole body slowly going taut.

She thought of Mo Linyuan, thought of his affection and investment* toward her. Her hand that was on the table suddenly clenched.

*the time and energy he spent with her

“You’ve never met someone who successfully changed their fate?”

“Yes, I’ve never met.”

Ye Mu faintly smiled. “Then you can look at me now because I absolutely, absolutely*, will not end up like what you said, a dying person!”

*she says it twice

Lin Zhizhao listened. Those pairs of bright eyes instantly looked in her direction. “You’re fighting against the heavens?”

Ye Mu stood up. “What else?”

Lin Zhizhao heaved a sigh. “No one has fought against the heavens.”

Ye Mu didn’t budge. “That’s because those people are not me!”

Lin Zhizhao instantly remained silent. Ye Mu swept her eyes to him.

“I think you shouldn’t drink this wine anymore. I can persuade His Majesty to bring you together to find the treasure, so you should be a little clear-headed!”

Lin Zhizhao sobered at once!

“You can do it?”

Ye Mu held the wine on the table in front of her and emptied the glass in one gulp.

“Of course!”
