Chapter 100: Daoist
After Yinqi left Xinuan Pavilion, Wanyue was very puzzled in her heart, Zhou Gege's weak body was actually pregnant with a child, but I was afraid that her birth would not be too easy.
But after thinking about it, she didn't want to interfere in Zhou Gege's affairs, and the most important thing at the moment was to order someone to go to the Yueminglou Tea Garden to inform the shopkeeper Wang, so as not to have any problems when the old man went to the tea garden tomorrow.
She immediately looked at Yu Dan in the room, and saw that Yu Dan was cleaning up the things on the table, so she called Yu Dan.
Hearing this, Yu Dan turned his head to look at Wan Yue and asked, "Little master, what do you want to tell the slave maid?" ”
Wanyue glanced around, and saw that no one was paying attention to herself, so she raised her hand and motioned for Yu Dan to come closer, Yu Dan immediately followed her ear, Wan Yue said something to her, and after Yu Dan heard it, she hurriedly answered yes, and then retreated.
After Yu Dan left the Xinuan Pavilion, Mama Wang saw that she seemed to be heading in the direction of the gate of Baylor Mansion, and couldn't help but be a little puzzled: What is Yu Dan going out for? It wouldn't be to find out any news, but Mama Wang didn't ask.
Mama Wang came to Wanyue's back room and asked in a low voice, "Miss, I just saw Yudan go out." ”
Wanyue nodded and said, "Well, I'll let her go to the Yueminglou Tea Garden to do something." ”
After hearing this, the expression on Mama Wang's face was a little intriguing, before Miss had always asked her to go to the shopkeeper of the tea garden to hand over to Wang, but now she let Yudan go, Mama Wang also knew that Wanyue was intentionally lifting Yudan, but thinking of Miss's 'dislike' her age, she was a little uncomfortable, she thought that she could accompany Wanyue for decades.
As soon as the court meeting ended on the second day, Yinqi and the emperor changed into ordinary people's civilian clothes, Yinqi was worried that he would be recognized by the king shopkeeper of the tea garden, and believed that there were many officials in the tea garden here, and the emperor Ama would definitely be recognized when he went, so Yinqi suggested that the emperor wear a fake beard bought from the street.
The emperor took a look, and then ordered Gonggong Li to also take a piece of beard, so he took Gonggong Li and went out of the palace gate together.
When the three of them arrived at the Yueminglou Tea Garden, they saw a lot of carriages and sedan chairs parked at the gate of the tea garden, and Gonggong Li couldn't help but smack his tongue a little: The tea garden business opened by Fujin on the five sides is really in full swing, and he has to make a good deal of Wubeile.
On the side, the emperor also looked at Yinqi beside him with some shock, "Yinqi, the business of this tea garden seems to be very prosperous." ”
Yinqi was a little embarrassed, he touched the tip of his nose, and replied with a smile: "I guess it's also because the troupe of this tea garden sings well, so the business is so good." ”
"Oh? Is it? Is this troupe so good? The emperor said with an interested face.
Yinqi nodded, "The level of singing in this troupe is first-class, and Erchen has also come here to listen to a few plays in his free time." ”
"In that case, I'd like to see it with my own eyes." The emperor said with great interest, and Yinqi also smiled.
The three of them entered the tea garden, and when the guys from the tea garden saw the three of them, they hurriedly came forward to greet them, "Three masters, please come inside." ”
"Arrange me a private room, and bring me a pot of tea and a fruit plate." Yin Qi winked at the guy, and the guy immediately saw it, and quickly nodded in agreement.
The three of them were taken to the private room to sit down, and the man came in with a pot of tea and a fruit bowl, and Yinqi waved at the man, and the man withdrew in amusement.
The tea is fragrant, the tea set is exquisite, and after the emperor took a sip of tea, he sighed with satisfaction and exclaimed: "This tea is really good, no worse than the palace." ”
After hearing this, a smile rose at the corner of Yinqi's mouth, and he secretly said in his heart: This tea was specially selected by Yue'er after comparing tea merchants from all over the country, and the ones purchased back are all of the best quality, and the taste is naturally good.
But he still said modestly: "Huang Ama, these teas are all bought by the people, where can they compare to the tea in the palace?" ”
The emperor smiled and did not continue the topic, but set his eyes on the stage on the first floor.
At this time, the opera on the stage had entered the climax stage, the emperor looked around, and found that only the spectators on the first floor seemed to be watching carefully, several private rooms on the second and third floors were empty, and there was a private room on the third floor that seemed to be full of people, several of whom seemed to be officials who had seen in the court.
"Yinqi, look at the private room on the third floor!" The emperor's eyes were fixed on the private room, and he raised his hand and pointed in that direction.
When Yinqi and Gonggong Li heard this, they looked in the direction pointed by the emperor, and saw that there were several officials in the private room, and Yinqi's eyes narrowed slightly, "Huang Ama, why don't we go up and take a look." ”
"It's fine." The emperor answered, and the three of them then walked to the third floor.
The private room on the third floor, the three floors inside and the three floors outside are surrounded by water, most of them are officials, these people are very quiet together, Yinqi tilted his ears, it seems that he can only hear the voice of a person talking inside, but he doesn't know who is speaking.
The three of them stood in a corner, Yinqi and Gonggong Li glanced at each other, Gonggong Li understood, so he squeezed inside, and led the emperor and Yinqi into the private room.
On the main seat in the private room, there was a Taoist priest wearing a green shirt, who looked about thirty years old, and looked very ordinary, looking like a woodcutter in the countryside, the emperor couldn't help frowning, where is the whiteness that those officials said.
Seeing this, Yinqi couldn't help but smile bitterly, such ordinary people are still regarded as fortune tellers by those officials, you can imagine how unreliable these officials are.
The Taoist priest squinted his eyes and chanted the mantra intently, constantly counting the hexagrams.
After a while, the Taoist priest opened his eyes, he glanced around, and finally locked his eyes on the official sitting opposite him, settled his mind, and said slowly: "Donor, there are a few words in the poor Dao that I don't know if I should ask?" ”
"Tell me." The officer immediately leaned closer to the table.
……
"The poor road looks at the donor's face is excellent, and there are nobles to help, this life must have a bright future."
When the official heard the Taoist priest's kind words, he couldn't help but frown, "Thank you Daxian for your guidance, I can't thank you enough." ”
After speaking, he took out a piece of silver and gave it to the Taoist priest, who coughed lightly twice, took the silver ingot from the opposite side of the table, and continued: "Next." ”
The official just now got up with a smile on his face, and another official in line immediately sat in the position of the official just now.
The emperor is too familiar with the Taoist priest's routines, and some swindlers on the rivers and lakes cheat money on the pretext of fortune-telling, but the emperor is ready to continue to see what tricks this Taoist priest has tricks, so that the officials who have read the Four Books and Five Classics are willing to take out the silver.
After a while, another official also came forward to ask the Taoist priest about the hexagram, the Taoist priest looked at the official's appearance, and then looked at his clothes, frowned and said: "Poor Taoist view of the donor's life, the donor's fate is bad, the fate is bumpy, if you don't get out of danger as soon as possible, I'm afraid your life will not be guaranteed." ”
"Ahh I don't know if the master has a way to solve it? The official shuddered and hurriedly asked.
"Donor, there are a few spirit beads here in the poor road that can be resolved, but the production process of spirit beads is cumbersome and the price is quite high."
"Master, as long as it can save my life, as much silver as it is, I just ask the master to help me resolve this calamity." The official didn't think about it and blurted out.
Seeing this, the emperor glanced at Gonggong Li beside him, and Gonggong Li stretched out his head and looked ahead, and saw the official's face clearly.
Seeing that the official on the other side was so willing to pay, the Taoist priest couldn't help but raise his voice, "This spirit bead will cost at least one hundred taels!" ”
Yinqi was curious on the side, isn't this fortune-telling immortal rumored to be a fortune-teller, only an official promotion? Why did you count your fortune today?
