NOVEL WEB Chapter 69
At noon, Lu Changsheng sat bored under the big tree to enjoy the coolness.
The vendors in the stalls next to them also gathered under the big trees, and the weather was a little hot, and they also took advantage of the coolness.
A few hawkers were a little curious when they saw that Lu Changsheng was wearing an ordinary dress and his expression was relatively peaceful.
"Fortune teller, you're a foreigner, aren't you?"
asked a hawker tentatively.
Lu Changsheng nodded, he felt that he was idle anyway, so it was better to chat with these vendors.
"You kid has come to the right place
!" "Jiangzhou is rich, if it weren't for the demons in our Qingjiang, maybe Jiangzhou would be more prosperous than it is now
!" "Yes, in addition to the government office, our Jiangzhou Mansion also has a water master yamen, and we collect a lot of white flowers in Qingjiang every year!"
It is said that two days ago, the Lord of the Servants captured a snake demon, last night, by the Qingjiang Demon to seek revenge
on the door, it is said that the fight reached the middle of the night, and finally it is said that the demon won!" "But no, there is news that the whereabouts of the Lord are unknown, and it is said that he has been eaten by
the demons!" "The identity of the Lord is half a cut shorter than that of the prefect, if he is really killed by the demons, it is estimated that the court will be furious!".
"You may not know very well, it is said that our lord's immediate boss, Lord Admiral, is very dissatisfied with
him!" "There are also rumors that this lord is a cultivator of evil ways, and everyone will be punished, and now no one in the Yamen of the Water Mansion dares to mention this matter easily!"
Lu Changsheng was originally chatting with these hawkers, but they started chatting in a blink of an eye and put him aside.
Last night, Lord Yuan must have been the commander of the Jiangzhou Water Division's guard, and he could be called a powerful minister with military power.
On it is the Admiral of the Navy who leads one or several routes.
Lu Changsheng didn't interject, just listened.
The news of the demon siege last night must have spread.
However, what happened behind the scenes, except for him, who was a witness last night, it is estimated that it is difficult for others to tell clearly.
No, when it came to the mouths of these hawkers, it became hundreds of demons to attack the sailor yamen together, and they ate a lot of soldiers.
"It is said that Lord Servant went to the Admiral's Mansion to find rescuers
!" "No, no, Lord Servant was eaten by the snake demon, and it is said that he was eaten alive
!" "It's not right, Lord Servant didn't leave Jiangzhou City at all!"
"......"
For a while, several vendors didn't let anyone, and they argued.
Lu Changsheng shrugged his shoulders helplessly.
"This son, do you know how to tell fortunes here?"
At this moment, an elegant voice came.
Lu Changsheng looked up and saw a white-robed Confucian scholar, standing in front of him handsomely and elegantly, with a strong bookish aura on his body.
He was followed by several Confucian scholars in green robes.
Lu
Changsheng just wanted to speak, but the hawkers arched their hands towards them and walked away in fright.
Seeing this scene, Lu Changsheng was slightly puzzled.
"Don't get me wrong, these vendors know that we are from the academy, so they leave!" said
the white-robed Confucian with a smile.
Lu Changsheng nodded slightly, sat up straight, and said lightly: "I can indeed count hexagrams here, I don't know, what does Your Excellency want to count?"
This person, he looked at it a few times and felt a little familiar, it seemed to be the white-robed Confucian who made the move last night!
The few Confucian scholars behind him couldn't help frowning when they saw that Lu Changsheng was a little rude.
The white-robed Confucian looked as usual, smiled, but his voice was a little lowered, and he said in a serious tone
: "I want to calculate the matter of the current emperor's son Bai Wang!" Lu Changsheng's eyes moved slightly, after counting the son of the White King so many times, someone finally wants to calculate
the White King! He continued to ask: "I don't know, what does Your Excellency want to count the White King?"
The white-robed Confucian didn't seem to expect Lu Changsheng to be so calm, and he waved his hand at the few people behind him.
The men quickly walked away.
"Childe, what I want to ask is, will the White King enter the East Palace again?"
The white-robed Confucian had sharp eyes, staring at Lu Changsheng word by word.
The White King was originally made the crown prince, and after the empress ascended the throne, she abolished his position in the East Palace and demoted him to the White King
! The Great Zhou Dynasty has not yet set up another crown prince
! For this reason, there have been constant disputes in the court!
Lu Changsheng did not expect that this hexagram would be so big, but he did not refuse to come.
"This hexagram is 10,000 taels!" Lu
Changsheng opened his mouth and said.
Even if he is the future master of the East Palace, he is naturally unambiguous, and there is no room for negotiation
on the price! Hearing this hexagram, the white-robed Confucian scholar's face suddenly changed drastically
! He never expected that the scholar in front of him would dare to ask for such a high price
! 10,000 taels of silver! If he only talked about the hexagram, even if he was an official from the age of 20 to the age of 80, he would not have paid so much
! The
point was that he could not afford to pay this hexagram at all!
The white-robed Confucian frowned, arched his hand, and said in a deliberative tone: "Childe, can you lower some
hexagram gold?" "This son counts hexagrams, hexagram gold is never discounted, if you don't want to, please be smart!"
Lu Changsheng didn't have any intention of negotiating, and waved his hand.
The white-robed monk's face couldn't help but become a little angry, even if he was well-cultivated, he couldn't suppress the anger in his heart.
This kid actually dared to ask for a price from the academy
! He really didn't take Jiangzhou Academy seriously!
However, Lu Changsheng's expression was still faint, and he didn't mean to look at him a few times.
"Childe, you are also a scholar, don't you know that scholars regard money as dung?"
said the white-robed monk angrily.
"Forgive Lu's words, it's definitely a bastard to say such a rebellious thing!" Lu
Changsheng suddenly sneered.
The white-robed Confucian thought for a moment, and he didn't know who said this, but soon his face turned blue.
"Zhuzi, you dare to scold this master!" said
the white-robed Confucian with anger.
Lu Changsheng waved his hand and said: "Your Excellency, don't take a seat, I'm talking about the person who said this, could it be that this sentence is nonsense from Your Excellency
......?" Not really!" He
looked at Lu Changsheng's eyes with a little more different color, and then his expression returned a little deeper.
"If Your Excellency refuses to count the position of the East Palace, then that's fine, the matter of the White King, the academy will definitely find out, Your Excellency secretly protects the son of the White King, presumably the answer is already very clear!"
The white-robed Confucian sneered, as if he had figured out something.
With that, he gave up his hand slightly, and then turned and strode away.
Lu Changsheng watched the other party leave, and couldn't help but shake his head slightly: "Alas, it's another person who thinks too much
!" "It seems that the relationship with the White King is inseparable
!" "Now in the Great Zhou Dynasty, maybe many people will think so!"
Thinking of this, Lu Changsheng couldn't help frowning.
