Chapter 180: Exquisite Evil Money, Kaiyuan Tongbao

"Sima, please stay!" Li Xuan stood under the door number of the Yangzhou Metropolitan Governor's Mansion and greeted Sima Changyu.

"The prince is leaving, if there is any news about the matter of the imperial doctor of the nest, the lower official will immediately inform the prince!" Chang Yu is very polite in return.

"Stay!" Li Xuan grabbed the horse rope handed over by Qiu Zhenmu, turned over, and had already turned on the horse's back.

Sitting on the horse, Li Xuan subconsciously looked at the opposite side of the Governor's Mansion.

Nothing showed that the Tianyin Demon Maiden Ye Wanwan, who was supposed to be there, had disappeared.

A sneer flashed in his eyes, and Li Xuan turned his head to look at Yu Ze and Qiu Zhenmu and said, "Let's go back to the post house by another way."

"Whoa!" Qiu Zhenmu and Yu Ze breathed a sigh of relief at the same time.

Walking from the middle street on the east side, although the road is shorter, but on the street where people come and go, even if some people are afraid to retreat, where can they retreat.

Although the other road is farther away, fortunately there are few people on the street, that is, they are unwilling to let the horses gallop, otherwise they can return to the post station in a blink of an eye.

Soon, the governor of Yangzhou has been left behind.

At this time, Qiu Zhenmu couldn't help but speak: "Lord Wang, the lower officials are a little unclear, why didn't they directly say what we needed before, there must be a war in Wuzhou, and the soldiers and generals are the most lacking."

Qiu Zhenmu followed Li Xuan and them all the way, and many things, Li Xuan did not avoid Qiu Zhenmu when discussing with Yu Ze.

"Qiu Bei's style of acting seems to be straightforward." Yu Ze spoke for Li Xuan in advance, he looked at Qiu Zhenmu, and said, "Qiu Beishen, we do need the Yangzhou Governor's Mansion to provide soldiers and generals, but we also need them to provide proper and complete formalities, otherwise if you don't pay attention to it, you will be suspected of rebellion, and you need to be cautious." When the war is over, all parties will report such details to the chapter, and if you don't pay attention to it, it will not be a success."

"Dou Changshi is now sitting firmly in the Diaoyutai." Li Xuan's eyes looked around as he said, "Everyone wants the biggest piece of the pie, but not everyone can get the biggest cup, we are just qualified to meet and talk to Dou Weng now, as for the other requirements, it is still far away."

A hint of sobriety flashed in Li Xuan's eyes.

Don't look at him as the king of the dynasty, when he travels, I don't know how many people worship and admire, but except for clan affairs, he can't say anything in court politics.

The only thing he could use to exert influence was the emperor's trust in him.

can trust this thing, Li Xuan has it, and Dou Xuande, who was born in the Dou family, also has it.

The emperor put him in the position of the governor of Yangzhou, and the weight of trust can be seen.

Compared with Dou Xuande, Li Xuan is the difference between a Wuzhou driver of the fifth grade and a Shangzhou assassin from the third grade.

Today's Li Xuan, the right to speak in the entire court is only insignificant.

It is conceivable that under him, I don't know how many people don't even have the right to speak at this point.

The only available emperor in his hand trusted this card and must not be played lightly.

"Let's go, after we go back, let's see which one is more appropriate to visit next, Yangzhou is prosperous, there is always a place for us to borrow." Li Xuan's smile was very light, only with a hint of deep meaning in his eyes. ….

The horse walked slowly, walking on the streets of Yangzhou with few people, and the clean and washed stone slabs under their feet were surrounded by relatively few pedestrians.

Before they walked the most prosperous middle street in Yangzhou, the street not only came out of the mansions to buy the next people, from the south and north of the world, the children who came to Yangzhou to study in leisure, and the travelers who visited relatives and friends, the crowds were crowded.

There are only a handful of locals rushing to and fro on this street right now, and they are all ordinary people who need to be busy for a living.

Just as Li Xuan was about to beat his horse and go fast, a quarrel suddenly came from the alley on the right.

"I said why didn't you study well at a young age, and came here to cheat and cheat with bad money, don't you know that bad money is not allowed to be used in Yongning Fang?" A big man with a sturdy body and a fleshy face, holding a butcher knife in his hand, looked at the thin little boy in front of him and wearing a gray cloth robe.

The little boy looked timid, looking at the strong man in front of him with great fear, the butcher knife was in front of him, he was so frightened that he almost cried: "I don't know anything, A-Niang gave five cents, let me buy two catties of meat, so that Aya can replenish his body, how do I know what evil money is, what real money."

"Can't you see it, there is so much difference between these two coins, how can you not see it, I think it was your aunt who deliberately asked you to use evil money, and if you don't recognize it, you will be ...... if you don't know it" Before the strong man's words were finished, a passing fifty-year-old man came out.

The old man of medium stature, wearing a washed white and cyan robe, his clothes and beard were neatly groomed, and there were two books under his armpits, he stopped, looked at the strong man and shouted, "Butcher Zou, this is the child of Guolangzhong's family, Guolangzhong's eyes are not good, you don't know...... I don't know if it's so unconscionable, I went to see a doctor, and I took bad money...... No, with the feel of Guolang, you won't notice that something is wrong!"

Butcher Zou took a few steps back, glanced at the butcher knife in his hand, smiled wryly, quickly put the butcher knife away, and then looked at Master Xu and said, "Master Xu, although this money is bad money, it is still very similar to real money. Besides, Guolang's medical treatment is the pulse, not the money."

Xu Fuzi glanced at Li Xuan, Yu Ze and the others in the distance, hesitated slightly, but still walked over: "Show me something."

"Give!" Butcher Zou's clenched left fist smashed open, and five copper coins with a shiny shine fell directly into Xu Fuzi's hand, making a crisp sound.

Xu Fuzi checked the copper coin in his hand, then took a closer look, and his brows immediately wrinkled: "This is Kaiyuan Tongbao, how can it be said that it is evil money?"

At this time, hearing the quarrel, people from the surrounding families came out one after another, surrounded them, and looked at the copper coins in Xu Fuzi's hand, and everyone else looked at each other.

"It's real money, Zou Han, you don't want to bully a ten-year-old child, do you?" An old lady wearing a very clean blue coarse cloth narrow skirt, all the wrinkles on her face wrinkled at once, and she looked at Butcher Zou with suspicion.

"Aunt Wang, you can't say that, as long as this money is thrown into your hand, the weight of the money can be reversed immediately." Butcher Zou's tone was a little anxious, and he snatched five copper coins from Xu Fuzi's hand, and kept turning them up and down, and the copper coins immediately made a crisp sound: "Listen, this voice is different." ….

"Is it different?" Aunt Wang, as well as the other idlers on the side, all showed doubts on their faces.

"Of course it's different." Butcher Zou was a little anxious for a while, and threw it up again, and the copper coin immediately made a crisp sound, and Butcher Zou looked at everyone eagerly: "Can't you hear the difference?"

"There are still differences, but it must be said that they are really similar, except for people who have been exposed to portions all year round, ordinary people can't tell the difference at all." A clear voice came from behind everyone, and when they turned to look, they saw a young man wearing a black silk brocade robe, with a white sash hanging from his right arm, and a gentle face appearing behind the butcher.

Beside the young man, there was a middle-aged Confucian man wearing a cyan wavy robe, and a young strong man wearing a maroon brocade robe and a silver chain mail jacket, holding the hilt of a knife and staring at everyone.

Perhaps Qiu Zhenmu's fierce look frightened everyone, except for the butcher who showed a hint of joy, everyone else subconsciously retreated, and at this time, Xu Fuzi walked forward.

"I've seen three officials, but I wonder what they have to say?" Master Xu crossed his hands, bowed and saluted, his face solemn.

"Don't dare!" Li Xuan returned the salute very politely, then looked at Butcher Zou and said, "Can you give me those five copper coins first?"

"This ......" Butcher Zou swallowed, not knowing whether he was afraid or unwilling, he stood there hesitantly for a moment.

"Hmm!" Qiu Zhenmu immediately stepped forward half a step, and the long knife stretched forward, and everyone around was immediately silenced.

"Okay, Brother Qiu, don't scare people." Li Xuan smiled, took out ten Kaiyuan Tongbao from his arms and handed them over: "I will exchange five copper coins with you, and for the rest, go get a larger wooden basin, fill it with water, and buy four taels of coarse salt."

Zou Butcher Eyes

His eyes lit up immediately, and he snatched the copper coins, and at the same time stuffed the five evil coins into Li Xuan's hands, and then quickly turned around and left.

A moment later, he had come over with a wooden plate about the width of his own body.

The tub was filled with water, but it didn't stop him from moving forward.

He had a paper bag in his mouth, which was filled with salt.

Li Xuan asked Butcher Zou to put down the wooden basin, then took the salt, and in the eyes of everyone in disbelief, poured a whole bag of salt into the water, and when the salt melted quickly, Li Xuan stirred it slightly, and then threw all five evil coins down.

Then, in the surprised eyes of everyone, two of the five evil coins sank quickly to the bottom, but three sank very slowly.

Although it is sinking, the slow one is obvious.
