Zhao Xuan of Niutou Village came down with a strange illness. His father, Zhao*dan, thought he was possessed, so he took Zhao Xuan to a temple to consult a monk.
But as soon as Zhao*dan gave the monk Zhao Xuan's birth details, something strange happened.
The monk counted on his fingers, then his eyes flew open. He prostrated himself on the ground and shouted, "Long live the emperor! Long live the emperor! Long, long live the emperor!"
But that wasn't the most important part!
The most important part was that Zhao*dan believed him!!
Zhao*dan thought it over. "If my son is destined to be emperor, I can't be too far behind."
And so Zhao*dan ascended the throne...
