When Li Yu came out of the Sheriff's Mansion, there was a little darkness in his eyes.
He was seventeen or eighteen years old, with red lips and white teeth, and eyes like morning stars. At this time, he was wearing a brocade robe, a golden crown on his head, and a long sword hanging from his waist.
"Master, are you going to Zuijiang Tower? I will prepare a horse for you!"
Several disciples immediately served attentively, and brought a white horse of great steed, and put on the saddle, this saddle is also extraordinary, shining in the sun, it seems to be made of silver foil.
"Yeah... I have a few friends who have an appointment for a poetry meeting..."
In the past, as the son of the prefect, Li Yu was always high-spirited, but now, he agreed casually, appearing a little absent-minded.
"drive!"
After getting on the horse, he was still thinking about what he heard when he passed his father's study just now:
"There are two big disadvantages of Chufeng County. One is that the aristocratic family has a long history, and it is full of warriors, and the other is that the gods intervene in the world... Among the many aristocratic families, the royal family is the most important!"
"This prefect has decided to take action, and this family will definitely have a backlash on the second day of February..."
…
Seeing that his father was about to confront the local county magistrate, which would be a catastrophe of ransacking his family and exterminating his family at every turn, naturally he couldn't be left indifferent.
"Maybe... In the eyes of the world, I'm just a dandy who enjoys drinking and poetry, and entertains himself?"
As Li Yu thought about it, a wry smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.
Although he was burning with anxiety, he couldn't reveal the slightest bit of it. He even couldn't refuse today's normal poetry meeting without a valid reason, lest his flaws be discovered.
"Young Master Li, please hurry up! Please hurry up! Young Master Zhang Family and Young Master Xie Family are already waiting in the private seat on the second floor..."
When they arrived at Zuijiang Tower, the waiter and the shopkeeper both recognized this distinguished and rare guest, and immediately served them attentively.
The Zuijiang Tower is built along the river, and the second floor has a wide view, and you can see the waves of the river, which is refreshing.
"Haha...Brother Li is late, he should be punished with three drinks!"
When several youths in green shirts saw Li Yu, their eyes lit up and they smiled.
"Little brother is too drunk today, let's compose a poem to make amends!"
Normally, he would be able to get very drunk, but now that Li Yu is full of worries, how dare he trust him? Immediately shook hands again and again.
"Okay...Brother Li's poetic talent, we all admire it, and we will wait for Brother Li to write a masterpiece today!"
A few people were clamoring, but Li Yu smiled wryly to himself. Now, where does he have any poems
"Fresh flowers reflect the forest, and the scales play in the clear canals. Linchuan enjoys fishing, and the fish is not proud of it!"
While thinking hard, I heard a Taoist sitting at a table leaning on the railing, looking at the surging river, chanting leisurely.
Its air is clear, its voice is beautiful, and its poems are even more excellent, with the leisurely meaning of cultivating Taoism, which made Li Yu stunned.
Immediately, the apology came out, and he took a few steps forward, and saw that this Taoist was only fifteen or sixteen years old, but his face was like a jade crown, his skin was crystal clear, and he was wearing a bamboo crown. He is a person who has achieved success in internal training, dare not neglect, clasped his fists and said: "I, Li Yu, have met the Taoist priest, dare to ask the name of the Taoist priest?... I just heard the poem of the Taoist priest just now, but I am quite interested, and I want to ask for advice... "
"Don't dare, I'm so poor, I just expressed my feelings just now, just for self-entertainment, making me laugh out loud..."
This Wuji Taoist, of course, was dressed up by Wu Ming, and he smiled at this moment: "If this young master is interested, you might as well sit down and have two glasses of thin wine with Xiaodao..."
"In this case, it's better to be respectful than obedient..."
Li Yu originally wanted to leave, but for some reason, a force made him sit down, picked up the glass, and drank it down.
The wine was extremely clear, and the dishes on the table were plain.
Taoists in this world, and even Vatican sects, do not have the custom of forcing them to eat meat.
Li Yu used a few chopsticks, looked at the river again, thought of the great river going east, the years passed by, but his family could not be preserved overnight, a kind of sadness filled him immediately, and he couldn't help but let out a long sigh.
"My lord sighs, there seems to be something bothering me!"
Wu Ming smiled indifferently: "And I see that Mr. Yintang is black and red, and I'm afraid there will be a bloody disaster in the near future!"
When he said this, he lowered his tone.
"What did you say?"
When Li Yu heard this, he was also shocked, and almost jumped up: "It's a bunch of nonsense!"
It's just that even though he scolded, he also lowered his voice, obviously not wanting others to hear him.
"Hehe... Pindao knows how to read faces, and he also knows that your bloody and sword disaster, son, does not belong to you, but to your family!"
Wu Ming laughed.
These words were heard in Li Yu's ears, but they fell like thunder, and he said after a long time: "You are a Taoist, you still have some knowledge..."
If it was an ordinary fortune teller, it would not be a big deal if he opened his mouth to scare people, but to be able to talk about the disaster of swords and soldiers, and it was related to the family, it really made him terrified.
Can't help asking: "Since the Taoist priest can see it, I don't know if there is a way to dispel it?"
"Dissolution? This is caused by human karma, it is difficult! Difficult!! Difficult!!!"
Wu Ming sighed quietly, and said three difficult words in succession.
But Li Yu seemed to have grasped a glimmer of hope, and hurriedly said: "I am the son of the prefect, and I will definitely repay you a lot..."
"Since this is the case, then the poor will be reluctant to do it..."
Wu Ming reached into his sleeve, took out a Panlong jade pendant, and put it on the table.
"This is… "
Li Yu picked it up, he has family knowledge, at first glance, he felt that this jade is ordinary, just ordinary, but after looking at it, he felt that this dragon had its own charm, which made him quite unable to put it down.
"Mr. Li... You must know that the way of heaven cannot be changed, and the general trend cannot be violated..."
At the same time, Wu Ming's voice was still lingering in his ears: "... Tian Xingjian, a gentleman strives for self-improvement. If you take this treasure of poverty, you can only defend yourself temporarily. If you want to change this fate, You have to work hard on your own..."
"Besides, the way of heaven comes and returns. If you want to take this jade, you have to leave something behind... hehe..."
"You want money? How much?"
Hearing this, Li Yu hesitated again, suspecting that he had encountered a liar.
"This... It depends on you, Mr. Li, how much you are willing to pay. The poor will say here first, no matter how much you pay, the two of us will pay off the money and goods, and there will be no more entanglements..."
Wu Ming shook his head, took another sip, drank a glass of wine, and said leisurely.
Hearing this, Li Yu felt more and more uneasy, but he glanced at the jade pendant in his hand—ever since he picked it up, he was reluctant to let it go, and he felt a sense of satisfaction in his heart, as if he had been hungry and thirsty for a long time. People, finally have something to eat.
'That's all... It's like spending money to buy a plaything! '
At this time, a gleam of blue light flashed on the jade pendant, so Li Yu finally stopped hesitating, reached into his arms, took out ten gold leaves, and put them on the table: "There are ten taels of gold here, is it enough?"
One piece of gold leaf is one tael, and ten pieces are exactly ten taels.
Moreover, although the official ratio of gold to silver is one to ten, the price of gold is so high that these ten taels of gold can be exchanged for almost one hundred taels of silver! No matter where you put it, it's not a small sum.
"Just right! Just right!"
Wu Ming took a deep look at the other party, laughed three times, took the golden leaf into his arms, and walked away gracefully.
"Mr. Li... What did the Taoist priest tell you just now?"
Li Yuyou, who returned to his seat, was a little dazed: "It's nothing... just sold me a toy..."
"It's done! Inspired by the dragon energy, my own luck has exploded!"
Wu Ming who went out also had a glint in his eyes.
In essence, dragon energy is just an introduction, and it needs to have enough luck.
This Li Yu meets the conditions, no matter his status or status, he has the support of luck, and now he has been promoted from the subject to the nominative - more generally speaking, it has inspired ambition!
Ambitious or not, this is very important!
In normal times, with the righteousness of the court under the pressure, a county guard can only command a few thousand soldiers at most, but if he has ambitions and is ready to stand on his own or even rebel, he can recruit tens of thousands of soldiers in an instant!
"What should be done has already been done, and the rest is just a matter of evolution..."
In the corner of the alley, Wu Ming took off his Taoist attire and changed back to his original attire: "The next step is to wait for the Dragon Gate meeting..."
…
"Young master came back really early today!"
The gatekeepers of the Sheriff's Mansion were all surprised when they saw Li Yu come back.
"Oh! Feed the horse!"
Li Yu faltered, absent-minded, and with Wu Ming's interruption, the poetry meeting in Zuijianglou broke up hastily.
He came back all the way, looking at the scenery of the county, but his heart was ups and downs.
Such a county, with such beautiful scenery, really shouldn't be given up to the Wang family!
And asking him to give up his family and life and let him be slaughtered is even more absolutely forbidden!
When I got back to the mansion, I immediately began to think about it: "My father actually knows that there are only yamen Kuaiban, hundreds of people...the Wang family has more private servants than this. If there is a real confrontation between the two, the key depends on the county lieutenant." , he has two thousand soldiers in command, no matter which side he falls to, he will be able to accomplish great things!"
Thinking of the county lieutenant's unpredictable attitude, Li Yu felt a little headache. At this time, the two servant girls walked by, and when they saw Li Yu, they were all pleasantly surprised: "Master, you are back, the second lady has been waiting for you for half a day. !"
"It's my little sister..."
This little sister Li Yu is the youngest daughter in the family, forced to love her father and brother, a smile can't help but emerge.
Suddenly, a thought, like lightning, flashed through my mind: "That county captain seems to have a daughter who is very doted on... I had a relationship with me at the Mid-Autumn Festival last time..."
In fact, the woman also admired the literary talents of scholars, and there are articles to do in it.
Although the behavior is a bit despicable, but it's a matter of life and death, how can you take care of these
Of course, the most important thing is to get in touch with the county lieutenant through this woman!
"Huh?"
At this time, another sound of surprise came.
"It's Xu Gongfeng, what's the matter?"
Li Yu glanced dissatisfiedly, and saw a doorman standing on the side of the road saluting, he couldn't help wondering.
This person seems to have some skills, so his father also paid money to support him, but he didn't see much use.
"No! No! Nothing..."
Mr. Xu said quickly, and after Li Yu left, he looked at the back, but his eyes were full of surprise and uncertainty.
