Chapter 17 Ikegami Contents

The smoke in Xiaoyingzhou is rippling, and the sky is clear and clear.

Su Yang took Jinse Meixiang and met Mr. Liang again. Mr. Liang hurriedly pulled the people around him to introduce him. One was Boss Li of Houchaomen’s wine shop, one was Manager Wang outside Qingbo Gate, and the other was Manager Dong outside Qiantang Gate.

These three shopkeepers also attended the cultural event here, and they came here to watch the performance.

Su Yang and they met him, so they sat down together.

"Does your house run a book shop?"

After sitting down, Su Yang asked Manager Dong that when Mr. Liang introduced him, he talked about his industry.

"It's all the ancestral property of the family."

Manager Dong was in his forties. After hearing this, he said ashamed: "I just guarded my ancestral property and wasted my life, and it was not worth mentioning."

Su Yang looked at Manager Dong with a smile and asked, "Bosshop Dong, if I want to publish a book, I wonder if you can help print it?" Su Yang was still thinking about publishing the book.

Manager Dong looked at Su Yang, smiled and said, "Young Master, in today's world, the current situation is mixed, and there are many people who have been punished for books. If there is any inappropriateness in the article, it will not only harm you, but also endanger others. Although there are printed items in my family, I haven't moved for a long time. If the young master wants to publish a book and make a statement, he is afraid he will find someone else."

Manager Dong spoke in an orderly and calm manner. Su Yang nodded after hearing this.

"Oh, it's not right."

Manager Wang from Qingbo Gate looked at Manager Dong and said, "Two mornings ago, I saw you bringing people back from Qingbo Gate so much paper, not for printing books?"

"Ahem..."

Manager Dong coughed twice when he heard this and said, "It's all waste paper, and I bought it to cover the wall." Seeing that Manager Wang was about to speak, Manager Dong pointed and said, "It's already started, let's watch the literary meeting."

Everyone looked at the scene. Su Yang saw that the three people who started the show at the ceremony were Li Shouhe, Li Cunxing, and Li Xinrong, the three of them evolved their tricks in front of everyone. The things in their hands appeared and even had tricks such as swallowing swords and piercing snakes at their nostrils. They made ordinary people feel worried. After the three people performed, the people in the scene were unanimously applauded.

When Li Xinrong left, his eyes kept looking into the boat, hoping to take a look at Gu Baozhu again. He was just a lady in the deep boudoir. How could he see casually?

"Let's go..."

Li Cunxing was attached to his son and said, "The money we earned in this performance today can already marry you."

The three of them were originally performing on the streets, but later they heard that Wenhui was looking for performers to find someone to perform. Li Shouhe took the money given to him by Su Yang and found a service to clear the money. As expected, they came here. Just now, they even used their lifelong skills and earned a hundred taels of silver.

This money can not only help Li Xinrong get married, but also allow him to settle down.

Su Yang looked at Jinse Meixiang and saw that they were also interested in these tricks. At this time, the two of them were talking in a low voice about the tricks.

After the three-player trick ended, someone came out to take charge of the overall situation and then read the article. Because there were too many officials here, they had to go through several rounds of screening to see who could stand in front of Governor Gu in the end.

After seeing all the texts, Su Yang felt like an exam. He didn't like to write poems and shocked a group of people, which made Su Yang feel quite bored when he saw them.

"The person who can stand at the end this time must be Du Kangen, the number one talent in Hangzhou."

When Manager Dong saw that the exam had already begun, he said to the people around him: "All those who come to participate are running with us."

The people present, except Su Yang, had no children. They all came here to watch the fun because their children were here, and they saw what round their children could enter every day. Almost everyone in Hangzhou knew that this was booked by Du Kangen.

"Why is it so big that sheep smells so mutton?"

Mr. Liang smelled the smell of mutton and looked outside curiously. Seeing that there was no one cooking mutton around, he said in surprise.

"Brother Liang, bow your head!"

Manager Dong pulled Master Liang and said, "If you smell the smell of sheep, don't look around. If you are targeted by the Rakshasa ghost, it will be bad."

It was noon at this time. Manager Dong suddenly said the Rakshasa ghost so seriously, which made the people present solemnly reverent. Manager Li wanted to ask what the Rakshasa ghost was, but was stopped by Manager Dong's eyes. The group of people were stunned here. There was a cup of tea. The smell of sheep suddenly dissipated, and Manager Dong breathed a sigh of relief.

"Shopkeeper Dong, what does this mutton smell have to do with the Rakshasa ghost? It makes you so serious?"

Su Yang looked at Manager Dong and asked curiously. He just looked at him with a keen eye. It was just that someone was cooking mutton nearby. He was just in the blind spots of the perspective that Mr. Liang had not seen just now. He just wanted to cooperate with Manager Dong and did not expose it.

At this time, Su Yang thought that this shopkeeper Dong was indeed an ordinary person, but when he heard what the shopkeeper Dong said, he felt that something was buried behind this shopkeeper Dong.

Manager Dong looked at Su Yang deeply and said, "Little brother, you must be careful when you smell this inexplicable smell of sheep coming. This is the Rakshasa ghost general walking in the world. If someone noticed by him, he would be cut off his heart and dig it up and swallow his five internal organs."

Rakshasa ghost general.

The Rakshasa Ghost King.

Su Yang asked again in confusion: "What is the relationship between the Rakshasa ghost general and the stinky energy?"

When the shopkeeper Dong saw Su Yang continue to ask, he said, "It is said that there are twenty-four numbers of Rakshasa ghosts, and these twenty-four numbers each correspond to a kind of crooked aura. In this way, the Rakshasa ghost generals in Hangzhou City are smelly."

The smell of mutton is the smell of mutton. Many people are not used to eating mutton because of the smell of mutton.

There are twenty-four solar terms in the world, and the Rakshasa ghost general will have twenty-four crooked auras.

"There are no Taoist priests who subdued demons in Hangzhou City. Kill this Rakshasa ghost general?"

Su Yang continued to ask Manager Dong.

Manager Dong turned his face and said, "I just heard from others and didn't know the details. It's better to talk less about such ghosts and monsters. Let's look at the Wenhui first. If you have any questions, we can talk about it after the Wenhui." Looking at the Wenhui, Manager Dong stopped talking to Su Yang.

Su Yang also looked towards Wenhui, and he could see at a glance that Du Kangen was cheating. However, Su Yang ignored it and did not expose it. Instead, he quietly watched Du Kangen pass the hurdles.

"In the first round, there are 140 people left..."

"The second round, there are sixty-six people..."

"The third round, the remaining twelve people..."

"In the fourth round, two people are left..."

One of the two remaining people was indeed Du Kangen, and the other was Li Muting. The two met each other and accepted the summons from Governor Gu together.

Governor Gu was wearing satin clothes and was obese. There was a maid behind him. After seeing Du Kangen and Li Muting walking up together, he looked very happy. He looked at the two of them and smiled and said, "Very good, very good. Today I am holding a literary meeting here to screen the talents in Hangzhou and also to remind you who are going to take the scientific examination. Today, you two can walk to me, and you will definitely walk to the emperor in the future."

Governor Gu's words made Li Muting look gloomy, but Du Kangen smiled happily after hearing these words.

"Since it's a literary club, one must finally choose a leader."

Governor Gu looked at the two of them and started to draw questions, saying, "I will make a question here today..."

"thump……"

Li Muting knelt in front of Governor Gu with a pounce, and said, "Governor, the boy is actually from Yangzhou. His fame and reputation have been removed. He has already bypassed the rules of attending the cultural conference. He came here by chance and did not dare to continue the exam. I hope the Governor will forgive me."

The joy on Governor Gu's face suddenly became much more restrained. He held this literary conference to select the officials from Hangzhou. In the initial requirements, people with fame and honor must be able to participate in the autumn examination and spring examination. Now that he bypassed the rules alone, he came to him, he hurt his face.

Governor Gu is a good person.

"I am also a talent-loving person, and you are even more talented."

Governor Gu looked at Li Muting and said lightly: "You go down first, and then tell me why you were dismissed from your fame. If you can help, I will help you. It's worth it for you to attend this literary conference."

Li Muting naturally walked out with great gratitude. This time, he was escorting Du Kangen to Governor Gu, but he didn't want to do it on a whim during the exam. He did two consecutive test papers, and even stood out, so that in the end, he actually came to Governor Gu.

"Then the leader of the literary gathering this time is you, Du Kangen!"

Governor Gu looked at Du Kangen and said to the people around him: "Du Kangen has always been a famous talent in our Hangzhou City. His poems and songs are obvious to everyone. At this time, I also want to announce something to everyone, that is, I plan to betroth the little girl in my family to Du Kangen..."

This was decided earlier. The marriage between Du Kangen and Gu Baozhu was clear in their minds. After hearing this, they could only congratulate them on being a handsome man and a beautiful woman.

"Governor!"

Du Kangen knelt down at this time and said to Governor Gu: "It is really a blessing for young actor Du Kangen to marry Miss Baozhu. In Xiaosheng's opinion, Miss Baozhu is much more important than fame and wealth. After marrying Miss Baozhu, Xiaosheng will retire to the mountains and forests, not to be fame, but to live a leisurely life at home..."

Governor Gu's face suddenly sank.

"The son-in-law has already done an article early to express his thoughts."

Du Kangen stood up openly and said, "A ten-acre house, five-acre garden. There is a pool of water and a thousand bamboos. Don't say that the soil is narrow, don't say that the ground is biased. It is enough to accommodate knees and rest shoulders. There is a hall, a courtyard, a bridge and a boat..."
