Vol. 1 Study Tour Chapter 57 Drinking and Talking about Luck
Lin Mu naturally heard such rumors, at first glance, it really sounded like the prince of Yan Wang did it, after all, if the second prince loses his current status, the prince will be the biggest vested interest. The rest of the princes, except for the third prince, still have a bit of a reputation for being honest and filial, and the rest are all busy, and no one can compete with the prince.
However, when you think about it, there is no need for the prince to make such a move. No matter how King Yan boasted of the second prince before, there was no sign of abolishing the prince, the prince won the hearts of the people of the Northland, and he was also the eldest son of King Yan.
If King Yan really has the intention of replacing Jinling, the position of the prince will be more stable, and he will open the head of the concubine, so he will naturally strangle this sign in the second generation. Otherwise, when the imperial power changes, I don't know what kind of bloodshed will accompany it.
This is not alarmist, the so-called Tang Dynasty, since the emperor who opened up the rule of Zhenguan killed his brother and killed his brother to ascend the throne, every twenty or thirty years, there will be a scene of fratricide and father and son against each other. King Yan is familiar with history, so it is naturally impossible not to know.
Of course, everything has another side, and it is not excluded that King Yan is happy to see this, after all, when the imperial power alternated in the Tang Dynasty, although he disregarded human morality, he could guarantee that there was no mediocre person who sat on that chair. When this bloody tradition ends, it is the beginning of the dynasty's transition from prosperity to decline, and the world returns to chaos, waiting for the next hero to rule the world.
It's useless to think about it, the joys, sorrows, and sorrows of other people's families have nothing to do with him, and what Lin Mu has to do next is much more interesting than calculating and understanding the things in the vassal king's family.
When the army of King Yan returned yesterday, Lin Mu also met a teenager on the street, a young man in a linen shirt, who looked honest, and as soon as he opened his mouth, he was full of northern Shaanxi style, with a lingering earthy atmosphere. He said that he came from Qinchuan to Shuntian to join his relatives, and he had no other skills, so he served a good crop. There are many relatives, come here to help, and also want to have a full meal.
A seemingly ordinary young man, when he smiles, he will show a mouthful of big yellow teeth, honest and honest. Lin Mu became interested in him, and the two agreed to meet today when they were separated yesterday, and now Lin Mu has built a banquet in the private room of the restaurant, just waiting for him to sit down.
When he was practicing Taoism with the Fishing Heavenly Master, Lin Mu had learned some means of looking at qi, and this young man was shrouded in a black qi on his face. This black gas is also a bit of a source, often listen to the fortune teller's words to coax others, "Eh, this brother, I see that your Yin Tang is black, your eyes are blank, your lips are chapped, and your spirit is sluggish. "This black qi is called karma by cultivators, but Lin Mu prefers the more popular saying, lacking yin virtue.
The boy went to the banquet on time, and today he changed into a blue shirt, although he was still dressed as an ordinary person in a linen shirt, but after freshening up, he could be regarded as a spiritual young man. Seeing such a sumptuous feast, I couldn't help but be amazed.
"Brother Ma, sit, you and I hate to see each other late, no need to be polite. ”
"Then I won't be polite to you, Brother Lin, the baby who came out of the ravine and valley is not so many twists and turns, if I say something wrong, I have to take care of Brother Lin." ”
"Brother Ma is serious, hurry up and enter the table, wouldn't it be a waste of money if the food is cold for a while. ”
"Brother Lin is still knowledgeable, and what he says is so good. ”
The wind swept away, and the young man started eating, which gave Lin Mu an illusion that this person had been hungry for a few days.
Pushing the cup and changing the lamp, a table of wine and food was wiped out by these two energetic teenagers, and after eating, the young man surnamed Ma happily patted his stomach and burped, "Comfortable." ”
"If Brother Lin has anything to ask me, even if he comes to ask, he can't eat your food in vain. ”
Lin Mu smiled and said: "Brother Ma and I hit it off at first sight, and we just met today, a little food, not enough to worry about." ”
Lin Mu paused, and then said: "I really have a question, and I hope Brother Ma will solve my doubts." ”
"Brother Lin, you scholars are good everywhere, just see outside, if you want to ask, as long as I know, I won't hide it. ”
Lin Mu was full of anticipation, revealing an inquiring gaze, "In this world, is there really a Captain Touching Gold?"
The eyes of the young man surnamed Ma suddenly became sharp, and he returned to his honest appearance in an instant, but this reaction naturally fell into Lin Mu's eyes.
"What do you mean by touching the golden captain? At my house, there are many drops of Tufuzi, eight hundred miles of Qinchuan, and there are all good treasures buried underground, and there are many people who have made a fortune by relying on this. ”
Lin Mu filled it with a cup and asked with interest: "Relying on the mountains to eat the mountains, relying on the water to eat the water, Brother Ma started a deal with the dead by relying on the entrance?"
The young man's face changed, and his honest appearance disappeared. It's still an average appearance, but it's like a different person. "Brother Lin is cutting off someone's head in order to gain fame?"
"How boring it is, I just saw Brother Ma's face black, and I knew that Brother Ma's family must have something I didn't want to know, in the end, I was just curious. ”
The sound of gold and iron clashing sounded, Lin Mu's double knife held the blade of the young man surnamed Ma, and if you look closely, it is an iron umbrella made of fine iron, with a simple shape, and the umbrella surface is not opened at this time, it is more like a large awl.
In this blow, both of them only exerted three or four points of strength, not a fight, but a temptation.
's own industry had already said hello, and when it collided, only the little maid quietly appeared behind Lin Mu.
"Brother Ma doesn't need to be nervous, Lin asked Brother Ma to talk about it here, purely out of curiosity, and had no other intentions. This tavern is the family industry, if Brother Ma has any bright weapons worth playing with, Lin also wants to buy a few pieces and act as an elegant person. ”
The boy received the iron umbrella in his hand, apparently not letting his guard down. Lin Mu secretly said to himself, this thing is clearly wearing a coarse cloth shirt, where did he get this iron umbrella?
Probably he had forgotten the sigil he was carrying.
"This trip is really unfortunate, I'm afraid it's going to disappoint Brother Lin, the ancestor of the family, the inverted fight is to borrow money from the deceased, borrow money, and bet on virtue. Therefore, even if the Ming vessel is taken out of the tomb, the transaction can only be carried out at night, and since it is a loan, after the fortune is made, it is necessary to find a treasure of equal or higher value to return. Ma came to the ghost market for this trip, and he didn't think about trading, so he didn't bring a Ming weapon. If Brother Lin is really interested, when he arrives in Chang'an, he can report my name of Ma Zhenxi, and naturally someone will lead Brother Lin to Ma's house. ”
Lin Mu thanked him for his advice, and when he heard the name of this man, he couldn't help but think of the unlucky guy who was beaten to death by Lu Tishi. "This rule is new, and Brother Rauma will solve my doubts. ”
"Brother Lin is polite, I can't eat your meal in vain. ”
"The reason why I asked about Brother Ma touching Captain Jin today is because when Lin read through the ancient books, he saw Cao Cao set up a special army to dig graves and borrow money from the dead as military funds. Didn't Brother Ma's ancestor serve under Cao Cao?"
"No, no, there are many schools of Tufuzi, and a school with many rules like my family is not pleasing. Some people often say that they are all doing some grave digging work, as far as your Ma family has many rules, the shelf is big, who doesn't know that tomb robbery is harmful to Yin Virtue, your Ma Family has many rules, can you make up for the missing Yin Virtue?"
"Actually, I also have this question, can Brother Ma easily disclose it?"
"It's not a secret, entering the cave is to disturb the deceased, even if my Ma family does this, it is difficult to make up for the lack of yin virtue. At that time, the Cao family used the deceased's fortune to conquer the world, but in the end, when the world was unified, it fell into the hands of the Sima clan, and the personal luck was not enough to make up for it, even the national fortune was also affected by it, so the Ma family attached great importance to the matter of Yin Virtue and Fortune. ”
The first time I heard such a theory, Cao Wei's tragedy can still be linked to his early behavior of stealing and digging tombs, which makes perfect sense when you think about it. The world is big, and there are endless talented people, which cannot be underestimated.
"If it is ineffective, is it not in vain?"
"The retribution will only be in itself, and will not harm the children and grandchildren, and when you go to the tomb, you will be contaminated with yin qi, and you will no longer be a clean person, but the children who have never gone to the tomb are innocent, and I often hear that other families have given birth to stupid and stupid sons, so I know that what my Ma family has done is not completely useless. ”
"I don't know?"
Ma Zhenxi smiled: "It's not a secret, do our business, just ask someone to know." ”
"Wealth is moving, there are not many people in the world who can see priceless wealth as calm as the Ma brothers' family. ”
"Then I will thank Brother Lin for his compliment. Today, Ma has other things, so he won't bother anymore. ”
"Brother Ma is at his own convenience, coming, sending off. ”
"Thank you, Brother Lin, for your hospitality. ”
The little guy led the way, and Ma Zhenxi walked out with an iron umbrella.
"This man is extremely vigilant, and the iron umbrella can not only be used to launch a fierce attack, but it is also a defensive talisman of excellent quality. As he spoke, Lin Mu suddenly turned around and asked the little maid behind him, "By the way, Yan Bing, have you eaten?"
"I've used it in the back hall, thank you for your care, does Childe really want to buy some Ming utensils?"
Lin Mu shook his head, "If my mother finds out, my legs will be broken by her, and the story of Captain Jin was told to me by my mother, and my mother has repeatedly warned me not to get involved in these transactions that are detrimental to yin morality." ”
"Since it is Madame's order, the son must take it to heart. ”
Lin Mu looked at the weak little maid in front of him, you thick eyebrows and big eyes, when did you betray the revolution. Thinking of this, Lin Mu supported his forehead, and his mother's shadow was too terrifying.
"Uh-huh, you little girl, are you a child's person or my mother's person?"
"Of course, the maid is the maid of the son, so I am afraid that the son will be blamed by the lady. ”
This should be a full score, thinking about his level, Lin Mu sighed, it's over, terminally ill, and there is no cure.
"But what the servant said is not right?"
"Yes. ”
"Why is that boy sighing?"
Of course, this can't be honest, it's a big thing out of style.
"Without him, I miss my father and mother. ”
