Rebirth As a Fatuous and Self-indulgent Ruler

Chapter 81: The praying mantis catches the cicada and the oriole follows behind

Views:

Long Xiaoyuan's idea was really very damaging.

He directly asked the shadow guard to make up as a rich businessman, and then found a brothel woman to act in a scene with her.

The play says so.

A rich businessman from other places fell in love with a woman from a brothel here. Although this woman is not an oiran, she is better than this rich businessman!

Therefore, the wealthy businessman redeemed the brothel woman and planned to marry her back as a concubine.

However, the home of the rich businessman is a bit far away, so before leaving, the rich businessman planned to play with this future concubine here again before going back.

This brothel woman is a local, she has always liked the Phoenix Mountain, and she hopes that she can be as lucky as the former queen.

The wealthy businessman doted on this newly redeemed concubine very much, so he took her to swim in Fenghuang.

However, this concubine lost a jade pendant that the rich businessman bought her as a token of love when she was on the mountain. That's a token of love!

The concubine became anxious immediately, but after searching for a long time, she couldn't find it!

The concubine's anxious face changed, and the rich businessman was very distressed.

And then, this rich businessman really deserved to be a rich businessman, so he openly recruited people in the city, and then went to Phoenix Mountain to find jade pendants!

Phoenix Mountain is so big, the wealthy businessman and his concubine also visited many places that day.

A rich businessman doesn't care about spending money, so he found a hundred people!

Then, the mighty hundred people went to Phoenix...

Zhou Hengliang was shocked when he received the news. "What? A hundred people went up Phoenix Mountain? Why?"

His subordinates reported: "It is said that the concubine of a wealthy businessman from other places lost his jade pendant in Phoenix Mountain!"

"Lost the jade pendant?" Zhou Hengliang glared fiercely, instinctively, he felt that there was a conspiracy in it.

However, what happened specifically is still unknown.

Of course, Zhou Hengliang couldn't let others know about the secret on Phoenix Mountain.

If only a few people appeared, then he could find someone to execute secretly, or send those people down the mountain.

But there were a whole hundred people who appeared. The most important thing is, those people are not from the world, how would he execute them

After thinking about it, Zhou Hengliang decided to take people to set off, saying that the mountain top is the territory of Tianyin Fort, and the rest will be played by ear!

Needless to say, the influence of Tianyin Castle in Shuanghua City, those people who want to stay in Shuanghua City safely, they must not be able to, and they will not have the courage to offend Tianyin Castle.

And Zhou Hengliang believed that since he got the news, then at this time, the Tianyin Castle must also get the news!

I believe that at this time, Tianyin Castle must have taken action!

Thinking of this, Zhou Hengliang calmed down a little. Then, he hurried to Phoenix Mountain with his men.

Tianyin Castle had indeed received the news at this time. The owner of the castle, Fang Qiuhua, was taken aback at first, and then became a little worried, but he immediately thought of a solution.

Originally, Tianyin Castle didn't turn Phoenix Mountain into private property because it was very barren, and it was basically a useless barren mountain. Ordinary people didn't go there much even for chopping firewood.

So Tianyin Castle didn't bother to make that barren mountain private again, because it didn't want to attract attention.

Otherwise, people will definitely be curious. It is obviously a barren mountain, but Tianyinbao spent a lot of money to buy that land from the government.

That's right, Phoenix Mountain belongs to the government. In other words, it belongs to the imperial court.

If you want to buy mountains from the imperial court, you must deal with the local government. In fact, the government does not have the right to buy and sell directly. This needs to be reported to the imperial court, and the imperial court must send people to review.

They didn't want to attract the court's attention to this area, so naturally they wouldn't come to buy a barren mountain.

But the situation is different now, with so many people going to Phoenix Mountain to find things, if they accidentally discovered the secrets on Phoenix Mountain, wouldn't it be over

Therefore, Fang Qiuhua quickly led people to Phoenix Mountain.

However, what Fang Qiuhua and Zhou Hengliang did not expect was that Long Xiaoyuan's "damage" actually had a back trick.

That's... the government!

Although in Shuanghua City, the government is basically just a decoration, and if there are any problems and disputes, the staff outside Tianyin Castle can solve them.

However, the government represents the imperial court!

And that rich businessman not only found so many common people, but most importantly, he also found the government!

Not long after those more than a hundred people went up to Phoenix Mountain, the magistrate's yamen also brought officers and soldiers up the mountain.

After all, Zhou Hengliang and Fang Qiuhua went one step too late.

Therefore, when Zhou Hengliang and Fang Qiuhua brought people to Phoenix Mountain, Phoenix Mountain was already full of people.

On the contrary, the county magistrate Mr. Wang, who came a step later, brought a group of government servants to the foot of the mountain.

County Magistrate Wang was very surprised when he saw Zhou Hengliang and Fang Qiuhua coming over.

"Huh? Master Fang and Lord Zhou? Why are you here too?" County Magistrate Wang asked as he glanced at the Phoenix Mountain behind him, and what he saw was of course the scene of those people on Phoenix Mountain looking for jade pendants.

Looking at the appearance of County Magistrate Wang, he obviously misunderstood that they also came to help find Yupei, which made Fang Qiuhua and Zhou Hengliang embarrassed for a moment.

Then, it was Zhou Hengliang who spoke. "My lord Wang probably misunderstood, we are not here to help someone find things" Huh? The county magistrate Wang was even more surprised when he heard this. "Then why did you two come to this barren mountain?" "

I don't know whether it was intentional or unintentional, the magistrate Wang emphasized the word "barren mountain" very "emphatically".

Zhou Hengliang met Fang Qiuhua on the way here, and after discussing for a while, they both thought of being together.

Therefore, Zhou Hengliang said: "Master Wang, in fact, it is because Tianyinbao and I want to jointly do something on this Phoenix Mountain, so that this Phoenix Mountain will not be so deserted, and we are going to tell the government to buy this Phoenix Mountain. What about the mountain area, but I didn’t expect to hear that Mr. Wang brought people here, so we came to have a look.”

"Ah. Tianyinbao wants to buy the barren mountain of Phoenix Mountain? Why?" County Magistrate Wang looked at Zhou Hengliang and Fang Qiuhua with the eyes of "You really have so much money? Do you want to spend money to play?"

The strange eyes suddenly made Zhou Hengliang and Fang Qiuhua, the two old foxes, a little uncomfortable.

"Cough cough." Fang Qiuhua coughed. "Master Wang, we just want to use the top of this barren mountain to do some business, so as to benefit the people of Double Flower City."

"Master Fang really thinks about the people." County magistrate Wang sighed very much, and looked at Fang Qiuhua with admiration. "I don't know what business the castle owner wants to use this barren hill for?"

"This..." Fang Qiuhua hesitated a little.

It happened so suddenly, of course he didn't fully think it through. However, his hesitation can also be regarded as not easy to disclose business secrets, otherwise, he will lose the opportunity, won't he be preempted by others

In that case, the business will lose money!

County Magistrate Wang said: "I understand Master Fang's hesitation. It is very important to do business first. However, if the sale of Phoenix Mountain is really successful, I must report to the imperial court. When the time comes, the Master will buy What kind of business do you do in the barren mountains, this also needs to be recorded in the Central Archives Office."

Fang Qiuhua heard the words and said quickly: "My lord is worrying too much, I am not afraid of your lord being exposed or something else, but I don't have a very detailed plan yet, so I don't know how to tell my lord at this time. "

"So that's the case." County magistrate Wang nodded. "However, I still want to ask, what kind of business does the Castle Master want to do?"

"It's medicinal materials." Fang Qiuhua said immediately. "Cultivate medicinal materials in enclosures on the mountain."

"Ah, this is a good thing." County Magistrate Wang said excitedly, and then bowed deeply to Fang Qiuhua. "I want to thank Lord Fangbao very much. For this Double Flower City, Lord Fang really paid a lot."

I don't know if it's an illusion, although the expression of the county magistrate Wang is very sincere, and the gratitude seems to be really grateful, but Fang Qiuhua and Zhou Hengliang still feel a little awkward!

This feeling disappeared in a flash, and Fang Qiuhua waved his hands quickly.

Zhou Hengliang smiled wryly, and said worriedly: "Your Excellency also knows that the medicinal material business is very particular about geology, so we are a little anxious when we hear that so many people go up the mountain."

"Yes." Fang Qiuhua also sighed. "I'm afraid that so many people will step on something..."

"Lord Fangbao and Master Zhou are too worried about this." County Magistrate Wang said seriously: "Fenghuang Mountain has not fallen for more than a hundred years, and it will not collapse just because some people step on it. This barren mountain has been abandoned so much. Many times, no medicinal materials have been planted on it, and there is nothing precious, so there is no need to worry about stepping on anything."

Just as Fang Qiuhua was about to say something more, County Magistrate Wang immediately smiled and said, "Furthermore, this place is just a barren hill now, and it's not privately owned. Anyone can go there. Master Fang can't drive people down at this time, right?"

County Magistrate Wang can put on an awkward look.

Zhou Hengliang's eyes darkened slightly, and he really wanted to kill the county magistrate immediately with a knife, but, can he

In broad daylight, what's more, the eyes of the people in the whole city are almost fixed on this place!

At this time, the county magistrate Wang said again: "Since the two of you are here, why don't you go up and have a look together."

Fang Qiuhua and Zhou Hengliang looked at each other very secretly when they heard the words, and then agreed.

As a result, there were dozens of people on Phoenix Mountain in the blink of an eye.

Zhou Hengliang and Fang Qiuhua signaled for the people they brought to scatter secretly, they must not let the common people discover the secrets in the mountains!

These people brought by Zhou Hengliang and Fang Qiuhua are all his confidantes, so these people also understand their thoughts best.

These people were secretly scattered on Phoenix Mountain.

It's just that they didn't know that the mantis stalking the cicada and the oriole were behind, Long Xiaoyuan, Shi Qingzhou and a group of shadow guards were actually among the more than a hundred people!

Moreover, they had been waiting for Fang Qiuhua and Zhou Hengliang to bring people up.

Moreover, they also know that if there are really any secrets in Phoenix Mountain, they will definitely find a way to prevent the common people from accessing those secrets.

Therefore, in fact, as long as you pay close attention to these people and know where these people are nervous about.

It is not necessary to discover the secrets of Phoenix Mountain in broad daylight, they just need to know where these people will prevent the people from going, that's all! Therefore, I have to say that Long Xiaoyuan's method is really very damaging.

Without a trace, everyone was counted into it.

He obviously doesn't know anything, but Leng can find out through this method, at least, he can find clues!

The mighty crowd searched for the whole most of the day.

Until it was dark, finally, one person shouted happily. "Ah, I found it, I found it!"

Everyone looked around, and it was a man who found the jade pendant.

The brothel girl rushed over. "Ah, it really is it, I found it!"

The woman wept with joy, and the rich businessman was heartbroken. "Don't cry, just find it, just find it."

"En!" The woman nodded like a chick pecking rice, and protected the jade pendant in her arms very preciously.

Although there was only one person who found the jade pendant, among so many people, rich merchants paid silver, but the man who found the jade pendant got the most.

The rich businessman will show his pampering to the brothel woman to the fullest.

The mighty crowd took most of the day after going up the mountain and then went down the mountain mightily.

Everyone was beaming as they walked, there was no way, even though they didn't take the one with the most.

But the "wage" given by the wealthy businessman for a day is really quite a lot!

No one thinks they have too much money, right

So, everyone is very happy.

Shi Qingzhou and Long Xiaoyuan also changed their costumes and walked among the group of people. They were also very happy because their plan was really good and they made a big discovery!

Long Xiaoyuan secretly took Shi Qingzhou's hand. "Tired?"

Shi Qingzhou couldn't help laughing when he heard this. "I should ask you that, right?"

Long Xiaoyuan shook his head, the smile on his face was really silly.

Shi Qingzhou couldn't help but shook his head.

The two chatted sweetly for a while, and after the team returned to the city, they naturally dispersed.

Shi Qingzhou and Long Xiaoyuan went back to the inn.

Both of them were actually a little tired, after all, they spent so long on the mountain.

Anyway, the dark guards had already secretly recorded what was wrong on the mountain, and there was no need for Long Xiaoyuan and the others to do anything else.

So, after returning to the inn, Long Xiaoyuan immediately asked Xiao Er to bring over the dinner.

Long Xiaoyuan ordered Shi Qingzhou's favorite food, and Shi Qingzhou was also very satisfied. Long Xiaoyuan remembered what he liked and what he didn't like.

Then, the husband and wife solved the dinner for two in a very harmonious and warm way.

After dinner, Long Xiaoyuan proposed to go for a walk, Shi Qingzhou naturally would not refuse.

The husband and wife were walking in the city, occasionally passing by small stalls and buying some gadgets.

Of course, because of their identities, as long as they leave the inn, they will wear disguise masks, otherwise, it would be no fun to be recognized by others.

"Aren't you worried about your family?" Shi Qingzhou asked.

"Huh? At home?" Long Xiaoyuan looked at Shi Qingzhou. "Didn't it all be planned when I came out? What's there to worry about?" Shi Qingzhou said lightly: "The plan is just a plan. What if my father can't keep it?"

"Haha." Long Xiaoyuan laughed. "Qingzhou, don't worry, we will fall, but your father won't, I have great confidence in him, Jiang must be old and hot, don't worry."

Shi Qingzhou can't laugh or cry. "Just because of that?"

"Well, and Qingzhou, I gave your father two things when I came out."

"What?" Shi Qingzhou asked.

Long Xiaoyuan smiled and spit out a few-word answer. "Jade seal and imperial decree."

Shi Qingzhou froze for a moment, then took a deep breath. "Do you know what these two things you gave represent?"

Long Xiaoyuan blinked. "What?"

Shi Qingzhou pursed his lips. "That location."

"Hehe." Long Xiaoyuan laughed again. "Does Qingzhou think your father will be interested? No, what's more, even if it is, it's not bad. We just settled here, and this life should be very comfortable."

Shi Qingzhou: "..."

Although Long Xiaoyuan's words seemed to be a joke, the other party's expression was very serious.

Seeing this, Shi Qingzhou slowly raised the corners of his mouth. He felt that his father was foolish and loyal once, and it was true. At least, he met a Mingjun, at least, he would not betray his trust in vain.

Since ancient times, loyal courtiers have been most afraid of meeting a foolish emperor, and now, his father is satisfied.

Long Xiaoyuan, very good.

At this time, Shi Qingzhou couldn't help but thank the other party for that dream.

If it wasn't for that dream, then Long Xiaoyuan would definitely not be what he is now!
