Chapter 55 Heading to the Fairy Goddess Temple

Chapter 55 Heading to Xiangu Temple

When the rooster crows, it's not yet dawn.

Mr. Jiang was alone early in the morning, carrying cakes and morning tea, and entered the Wangtiantai to visit the prison.

The people imprisoned in Wangtiantai were all felons, but Scar Laoliu turned a blind eye and let them go.

Moreover, Jiang Gaoyi, the Minister of Punishment, is now his direct superior.

Zheng Xiu was a little surprised when he saw Jiang Gaoyi who came to visit the prison with breakfast.

In his impression, Mr. Jiang should not be so understanding of human nature and sophistication.

Originally, Zheng Xiu was worried about not having breakfast this morning.

I never expected Mr. Jiang to be so sensible now.

I don’t know what happened that changed Mr. Jiang’s upright temperament.

The next second Zheng Xiu knew why.

"Master Hou!" Jiang Gaoyi was startled when he saw the small bungalow-style prison on the rooftop at first, but then he remembered Zheng Xiu's actions in the underground prison, and suddenly understood, and he was full of emotions in just three or two steps.

, bursting into tears: "Jiang, I'm so sorry to the Marquis! In the past, Marquis Zheng came to the rescue in times of need, and recommended Jiang in front of the Holy Lord, regardless of past grievances. The Marquis has a deep love for the Marquis, and Jiang should have gone through fire and water to repay his kindness! But!

now……"

Mr. Jiang paused and felt sad. He covered his face with his sleeves and sighed heavily: "Jiang is unable to wash away Mr. Zheng's grievances!"

It looks like he really came to visit the prison.

It seems that he sent a few coins and changed Jiang Gaoyi?

Zheng Xiu was a little moved in his heart. It stands to reason that Jiang Gaoyi really wanted to talk about something, so he just sent someone to send a message. He had just been promoted to the post of minister, and it was when his official career was prosperous that he coveted the throne of prime minister. But now he is desperate and comes to the prison alone.

In the middle, it is easy to get some bad luck and affect the future.

Jiang Gaoyi had been in prison not long ago and was very familiar with this environment. He stood in the prison with a look of nostalgia and sadness.

Jiang Gaoyi was full of emotions, and after a brief exchange of greetings, he took the initiative to express his feelings.

He said that Zheng Xiu had been wronged, and someone else must have framed Princess Yurun's case. Now that he had some clues, he would be able to clear Mr. Zheng's name and the Zheng family's name in a few days.

When Zheng Xiu heard this, he immediately felt that the cakes in his mouth were tasteless. He quickly said to Mr. Jiang that there is no need to be in such a hurry. Check it out carefully and check it slowly before talking about it.

Mr. Jiang didn't know that Zheng Xiu was a child in his heart. When he heard this, he mistakenly thought that Zheng Xiu was worried about losing his official title, and he was even more moved.

"As expected of General Zheng's bloodline, he is extremely righteous and highly respected! In the past, Jiang mistakenly thought that Lord Zheng was as unscrupulous as ordinary profiteers. He was really blind! He was so blind!!" Mr. Jiang felt sad and blamed himself, and immediately he

"Other departments" will report the case of Princess Yurun for review overnight.

Zheng Xiu secretly thought that it might be Feng Bei who took the case away.

Did Feng Bei find out anything?

Zheng Xiu was curious and planned to ask again later.

Regarding Ye Weiyang, Jiang Gaoyi did not dare to mention anything more, but what Jiang Gaoyi said next made Zheng Xiu think twice.

"Are you saying that Yu Wen Youde, the secretary of the Ministry of Civil Affairs Kao Company, who died suddenly and unexpectedly at night, made a verbal matchmaking agreement with the Jing family to take Jing Xuemei, the Jing family's only daughter, as his concubine?"

Why do people always keep an eye on my girl?

Doesn't this make me, Zheng Xiu, stigmatized as a "stealer of wives and concubines" again?

Zheng Xiu was puzzled.

But in this era, marriages between officials and businessmen were not uncommon. Even though Jing Xuemei fell into prostitution, she was quite famous in the city. She convinced people with her superb skills and did not sell her body. She is still innocent today. This is a fact that everyone knows

.

And that Yuwen Youde was only twenty-eight years old, young, promising, handsome and charming. He didn't really want to marry the girl in heaven and earth, but as long as Jing Xuemei redeemed her body and returned to the identity of the eldest lady of the Jing family, she would be a good match.

Already?

As for heaven and earth, let her leave home and go out to experience.

Yu Wen Youde had never even seen Jing Xuemei's true face during his lifetime. The Jing family only had an only daughter, and the two old people in the Jing family could not have any more children. Logically speaking, Yu Wen Youde only had to let Jing Xuemei have a few children, and one of them would be adopted.

Give it to the Jing family. Isn't it Yu Wen Youde who has the final say over the Jing family's wealth?

The Jing family also wanted to take a shortcut to the officialdom, so the marriage between the two families was a happy event for everyone.

Jiang Gaoyi lowered his voice and said, "I wonder if Mr. Hou has never doubted Jing Xuemei?"

Before leaving, Jiang Gaoyi's words made Zheng Xiu fall into deep thought.

Jiang Gaoyi, the Secretary of the Ministry of Punishment, was in a hurry when he came and left, taking the domestic garbage away from the cell.

Before leaving, Zheng Xiu asked what he and Lao Wei had talked about that day. Jiang Gaoyi's expression changed drastically and he cupped his hands in the direction of the palace, saying that he did not dare to speculate on His Majesty's intentions, as he did not know.

Jiang Gaoyi seemed to be a different person, and he gradually understood the officialdom.

After Jiang Gaoyi left, Zheng Xiu tidied his clothes and went to the toilet.

Zheng Xiu also knew that the top priority now was to open up the [Xiangu Temple] first, but he couldn't ignore someone who was causing trouble here.

You have to sit in this prison, but what Zheng Xiu wants is to sit peacefully like on vacation, instead of being hung up on some weird charges. Everything must be under control.

Before dawn, Zheng Xiu entered the prison of his heart and acquired the characteristics of a "bad boy".

Following Feng Bei this time, there was no need to worry too much about safety. Zheng Xiu thought for a while and decided to make a reasonable combination. First, he could protect himself, second, he could gain experience, and third, he had to fit in with Zheng E's identity and pretend to be his son thoroughly.

After thinking about it, Zheng Xiu equipped [Bad Boy] with the following characteristics:

[Inspiration (little attainments)], [Boxing skills (a little knowledge)], [Provocation (entering the hall)], [Intuition (entering the hall)], [Eighteen Coiling Dragon Slashes (entering the hall)].

Zheng Xiu didn't know what he would encounter in [Xiangu Temple], but Zheng Erniang was suffering from a thaumaturgic disease, so he expected it to be related to those weird and weird things. [Inspiration] can be said to be a necessary trait.

Needless to say, [Boxing] and [Eighteen Coiling Dragon Slashes] are dangerous and unpredictable in the ghost world, and the output characteristics are essential.

[Intuition], a life-saving quality, a must-have.

As for the last trait, Zheng Xiu originally wanted to bring [Investigation] with him, but he thought that Feng Bei was Ye Weiyang’s top player, so bringing him with him as a detective would feel a bit like trying to do what he wants, and the experience level of [Provocation] increases very quickly.

If... we use Fengbei as a brush.

Zheng Xiu did not struggle for too long with the choice of traits. He had unlocked [Station Station] and anchored Fengbei. He could move quickly at any time. If there was a problem, he could just come back and switch.

There are always more difficulties than solutions, so don't get too entangled.

Taking advantage of darkness, the evil boy attacks.

When the evil boy first appeared, the raven in the sky panicked for a moment.

Zheng Xiu raised his head and took a look. The evil boy quickly flew out of the cell in the form of Ah Piao, and the raven regained its composure.

After two [fugue] trips, the raven's reaction made Zheng Xiu understand that the raven would be disturbed only if the main body and the incarnation appeared together.

If they are separated, they will not trigger the warning of the raven flock.

Flying all the way, the raven didn't respond. Zheng Xiu easily sneaked back to Zheng's house.

Before leaving, he clamped the door with a piece of hair and returned to the room. Several small mechanisms hidden in the door and windows were still there. Zheng Xiu made sure that no one sneaked into his room in the middle of the night.

It seems that he still has a certain dignity when he takes on the identity of young master.

At dawn, Zheng Xiu pretended to wake up from a deep dream, opened the door and welcomed the dazzling sunshine.

The new servant has already been waiting outside the door to help the young master undress and wash up.

Since Er Niang became seriously ill, many of the Zheng family's businesses have been left unattended, which has been affected to a certain extent. Even heaven and earth have put up signs saying "The owner is happy, temporarily closed". As a result, there are many girls and cooks.

, a tailor who works part-time as a servant in the Zheng family. The Zheng family is rarely so lively.

Zheng Xiu told Qing Shisan that he wanted to go out of the city with Feng Bei.

Qing Shisan wanted to follow, but Zheng Xiu ordered Qing Shisan to stay in the city. Now that everything is unclear, Master Zheng's most trusted Qingpi is needed here to take charge.

One is to lead the brotherhood to protect the Zheng family, and the other is to use clairvoyance and ears to inquire about news, especially news that is difficult to spread in the palace.

Qing Shisan agreed repeatedly, obviously he didn't really want to go.

No one wants to get close to the legendary Shangxian Sanfengbei, not even Lian Qingshisan.

After repeatedly agreeing, the young master gave a quiet instruction, but Qing Shisan was so shocked that he choked on the spicy cigarette.

"Ahem... Young Master, are you saying that you are secretly building a dungeon under the Zheng family?"

Qing Shisan always felt that he didn't listen carefully, so he picked his ears hard while repeating the young master's words.

It’s time to go to Sanjiang! Brothers, please do your best!
