Chapter 130 The Goddess's Prophecy
At this time in the capital, the Sixth Prince’s Mansion.

A team of imperial guards suddenly appeared and surrounded the huge prince's mansion.

Liu Pianran had just been helped to sleep by a few maids when she was "invited" to get up again and get on a carriage to enter the palace.

It was already the middle of the night when Liu Mingwu received the news. She was worried until dawn, and only received the news that Emperor Yuwen had sent people to arrest the Sixth Prince who had left the capital without permission.

Liu Pianran also had a hard time in the palace, as her identity as a "goddess" was revealed to Emperor Yuwen.

Emperor Yuwen was over fifty years old, thin, wearing a golden Taoist robe, and leaning lazily on the dragon throne.

Liu Pianran was kneeling in the main hall, trembling, her face pale.

You can hear a needle drop in the hall.

"Are you the 'goddess' hidden by Lao Liu?" Emperor Yuwen's voice sounded above his head.

His voice was not loud, but Liu Pianran heard it clearly.

There was no particular emotion in Emperor Yuwen's tone, but it could be heard that he was speaking in affirmation.

Liu Pianran kowtowed without falling, and answered tremblingly, "Your Majesty, I am not a goddess, I just know a little bit about the art of deduction."

When she decided to package herself as a "goddess", she and Liu Mingwu had already agreed on a countermeasure, but she did not expect that it would fall into the hands of Emperor Yuwen.

The emperor on the dragon throne said "Oh?", as if he was very interested, "Then you can deduce the fate of our Dayu Dynasty now." As he said that, his tone suddenly became cold and stern, "If you can't deduce it, I will skin you alive!"

Liu Pianran trembled all over and tears almost burst out of her eyes.

In her previous life, she followed the Fifth Prince and had never met Emperor Yuwen, who was fond of seeking immortality. She only knew that he was a tyrant who allowed treacherous ministers to control the government and eventually died from taking elixirs.

"In reply...in reply to Your Majesty, the tortoise shell that I calculated is still with my mother..." Liu Pianran didn't dare to raise her head, only thinking that she would probably die here today.

How could she know any deduction skills? She was able to call herself a "goddess" in front of the Sixth Prince and maintain her identity as a "goddess" only because she pretended to be a prophet based on what she knew in her previous life.

Liu Pianran was extremely anxious. She calculated that it was almost certain when Emperor Yuwen would die, but how could she know what the fate of the country would be like?
At this time, Emperor Yuwen showed great compassion and ordered his personal eunuch Li Fugui, "Go and invite the mother of this 'goddess' to the palace. Don't forget to bring the magic weapon that the 'goddess' used."

He didn't seem to believe in Liu Pianran's identity as a "goddess", and there was a hint of sarcasm when he said those two words.

Liu Pianran didn't dare to say anything. She just lay on the cold ground looking pitiful, waiting for Li Fugui to pick up Liu Mingwu.

Emperor Yuwen was reviewing the memorials on the imperial desk in a disinterested manner. Liu Pianran breathed lightly, pretending that she did not exist.

More than half an hour later, Liu Mingwu, holding a mahogany tray, was led into the hall by Li Fugui.

"I am a common woman paying my respects to Your Majesty. Long live Your Majesty." Liu Mingwu looked calm as she knelt down and kowtowed in respect, not even glancing at Liu Pianran beside her.

Emperor Yuwen threw down the red brush and rubbed his temples with a headache.

"Now that the magic weapon of the 'Goddess' has arrived, please calculate it for me."

He stared at the mother and daughter kneeling in the hall. They were just pretty women, but they had the guts to play tricks to confuse his son.

Emperor Yuwen sneered in his heart and had already thought about how they should die.

However, Liu Pianran was not as flustered as expected. Perhaps her knees were sore from kneeling for so long. When Liu Mingwu brought up the tortoise shell, she simply ignored her image and sat cross-legged in the hall.

The girl closed her eyes and muttered something, holding the tortoise shell in both hands and shaking it gently in the air. After a while, she poured out the three copper coins from the tortoise shell.

As if she had seen something extremely terrifying, the girl's face changed, and she almost couldn't hold the tortoise shell in her hand. Emperor Yuwen narrowed his eyes, and was a little interested because of Liu Pianran's performance.

"What did the 'Goddess' figure out?" He leaned back on the dragon chair, and Li Fugui immediately served him a cup of tea at just the right temperature.

Liu Pianran held the tortoise shell with a sad look on her face. When she heard Emperor Yuwen's words, she swallowed hard.

She glanced at Liu Mingwu calmly, and after receiving the other's encouraging look, she gritted her teeth and said, "Your Majesty, I dare not lie. I just calculated that there will be an earth dragon in the southwest soon..."

Before she could finish her words, Emperor Yuwen's eyes shot over like sharp arrows, scaring Liu Pianran so much that she was speechless.

"Please take the mother of the 'goddess' down." Emperor Yuwen whispered. Li Fugui quickly winked at his little disciple and asked him to go forward and take Liu Mingwu out of the hall.

Liu Pianran huddled there, biting her lower lip with her pearly teeth, not moving.

She would never remember it wrongly. In her previous life, in early November of the twenty-third year of Yuwen, there was an earthquake in the southwest, causing countless casualties, and the fifth prince went to rescue the disaster.

Not long ago, her mother sent her a letter after learning that the Sixth Prince had gone to Wu County, telling her that if anyone from the palace came in the near future, she should tell them about the earthquake in the southwest, and they would be safe and sound, and might even be able to confirm her identity as the "Goddess".

She had no other choice today so she decided to take this gamble.

"When will the dragon turn over?" Emperor Yuwen's voice sounded in front of him.

It turned out that when she didn't notice, Emperor Yuwen and Zun Jianggui had already walked to within three steps of her.

Liu Pianran quickly collected her thoughts and replied quietly, "Early next month."

She forgot the exact time because one of the concubines in the Fifth Prince's harem was pregnant at the time and she was busy getting angry with him so she didn't pay attention.

Emperor Yuwen said nothing more. He waved to Li Fugui casually, turned around and walked back to the dragon throne to sit down.

Li Fugui stepped forward with a smile, "'Goddess', please follow us."

Liu Pianran nodded, climbed up from the ground with difficulty, and then limped out of the hall with Li Fugui.

When she reached the door, she couldn't help her curiosity and turned her head. Half of Emperor Yuwen's face on the dragon throne was hidden in the shadows, and her expression could not be seen clearly.

……

……

Pan Yingying and Yu Chaosheng's action of returning to the village with thousands of slaves shocked everyone.

Zhao looked at the huge crowd and slowly opened her mouth.

Wow! So many people! How can we accommodate all the houses in the village now?

Pan Yingying jumped off the carriage and saw Cheng Hai, whose face was as dark as the bottom of a pot.

Pan Yingying: ...

The people who are in charge of her are here. Is it too late to run away now?
"Master, why are you here?" Pan Yingying pulled Yu Chaosheng's sleeve and pushed him in front of her, so that when Cheng Hai beat people, there would be at least someone to block them.

Cheng Hai ignored her and looked at Yu Chaosheng steadily.

I wondered how the Taoist Qingyun could have determined that he was another Emperor Star, given his frail appearance? Was it based on his appearance?
