Chapter 100 Taoist Priest

After Yinqi left Xinuang Pavilion, Wanyue was very confused. Zhou Gege was actually pregnant with a child in such a weak body. She was afraid that her birth would not be easy this time.

But thinking about it, she didn't want to get involved in Zhou Gege's affairs. The most important thing right now was to send someone to Yueminglou Tea Garden to inform Shopkeeper Wang, so as to avoid any problems when the old man goes to the tea garden tomorrow.

She immediately looked at Yudan in the room and saw that Yudan was clearing things on the table, so she called Yudan.

Hearing the sound, Yu Dan turned his head to look at Wanyue and asked, "My young master, what do you want to say to your servant?"

Wanyue glanced around and saw that no one was paying attention to her, so she raised her hand to signal Yudan to come closer. Yudan immediately listened and Wanyue said something to her. After hearing this, Yudan quickly said yes and then retreated.

Go down.

After Yudan left Xinuang Pavilion, Grandma Wang saw that she seemed to be heading towards the entrance of Baylor Mansion. She couldn't help but wonder: What was Yudan going out to do? It couldn't be to find out some news, but Grandma Wang

I didn't ask any further questions.

Grandma Wang came to Wanyue's back room and asked in a low voice: "Miss, I just saw Yu Dan go out."

Wanyue nodded and said, "Well, I asked her to go to the Yueminglou Tea Garden to do something."

After hearing this, the expression on Grandma Wang's face was somewhat intriguing. Before, the lady had always asked her to go to the tea garden to deal with shopkeeper Wang, but now she asked Yu Dan to go. Grandma Wang also knew that Wanyue was deliberately promoting Yu.

Dan, but she felt a little uncomfortable when she thought that the young lady "disdained" her age. She thought she could stay with Wanyue for decades.

As soon as the court meeting on the second day ended, Yinqi and the emperor changed into ordinary people's casual clothes. Yinqi was worried about being recognized by the tea garden shopkeeper Wang. He believed that there were many officials in the tea garden. Huang Ama would definitely be recognized when he left.

Recognizing it, Yinqi suggested that the emperor wear a fake beard bought from the street.

The emperor took a look at it, then ordered Eunuch Li to get a piece of beard, and then took Eunuch Li with him and left the palace together.

When the three of them arrived at the Yueminglou Tea Garden, they saw many carriages and sedans parked at the entrance of the tea garden. Eunuch Li couldn't help but clicked his tongue: The tea garden business opened by Fujin on the five sides was really booming. He had to curry favor with Wu Beile.

On the side, the emperor also looked at Yinqi beside him in shock, "Yinqi, the business in this tea garden seems to be very prosperous."

Yinqi was a little embarrassed to be told that. He touched the tip of his nose and replied with a smile: "It's probably because the opera troupe in this tea garden is good at singing, that's why the business is so good."

"Oh? Really? Is this troupe that good?" the emperor said with interest.

Yinqi nodded, "The singing level of this opera troupe is first-rate. I also came here to listen to several performances in my spare time."

"In this case, I want 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. When the waiters in the tea garden saw the three of them, they hurriedly came forward to greet them, "You three gentlemen, please come in."

"Arrange a private room for me, and bring me a pot of tea and a fruit plate." Yinqi winked at the waiter, who immediately saw it and nodded and agreed.

The three of them were taken to a private room and sat down. The waiter came in with a pot of tea and a fruit plate. Yinqi waved to the waiter, and the waiter withdrew knowingly.

The tea was fragrant and the tea set was exquisite. After taking a sip of tea, the emperor sighed with satisfaction and praised: "This tea is really good, no worse than the one in the palace."

After hearing this, Yinqi raised a smile at the corner of his mouth, and thought to himself: This tea was specially selected by Yue'er after comparing tea merchants from all over the country. The ones purchased are all top-grade, and the taste is naturally good.

But he still said modestly: "Huang Ama, these teas are bought by the people. How can they compare with the tea in the palace?"

The emperor smiled and did not continue the topic, but turned his attention to the stage on the first floor.

At this time, the opera on the stage had reached its climax. The emperor looked around and found that only the spectators on the first floor seemed to be watching seriously. Several private rooms on the second and third floors were empty, and there was one on the third floor.

The private room seemed to be crowded with people, some of whom looked like officials I had seen in the court.

"Yinqi, look at the private room on the third floor!" The emperor stared at the private room and raised his finger to point in that direction.

After hearing this, Yinqi and Eunuch Li looked in the direction pointed by the emperor. They saw several officials in the private room. Yinqi narrowed his eyes slightly and said, "Huang Ama, why don't we go up and have a look?"

.”

"That's fine." The emperor responded, and the three of them walked to the third floor.

The private room on the third floor was crowded with people on the inside and outside. Most of them were officials. These people were very quiet together. Yinqi turned his ears and seemed to only hear the voice of one person inside.

But I don't know who is speaking.

The three of them stood at a corner. Yinqi and Eunuch Li looked at each other. Eunuch Li agreed, so he squeezed in and led the emperor and Yinqi into the private room.

Sitting in the main seat in the private room was a Taoist priest wearing a green shirt. He looked to be about thirty years old and very ordinary in appearance. He looked like a country woodcutter. The emperor couldn't help but frowned.

, where is the whiteness that those officials said.

When Yinqi saw this, he couldn't help but smile bitterly. Such ordinary people were still regarded as fortune tellers by those officials. It can be imagined how unreliable these officials were.

The Taoist priest squinted his eyes and recited the incantation attentively, and kept calculating 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. He calmed down and said slowly: "Donor, I have a few words for this poor Taoist."

I don’t know if I should ask?”

"Please speak." The official immediately moved closer to the table.



"The poor Taoist sees that the benefactor looks very good, and there are noble people to help him. He will definitely have a bright future in this life."

When the official heard the Taoist priest's kind words, he couldn't help but beam with joy, "Thank you so much for your guidance. I'm very grateful."

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! After saying that, he took out a piece of silver and gave it to the Taoist priest. The Taoist coughed twice, took the piece of silver from across the table, and continued: "Next

.”

The official just stood up with a smile on his face, and another official in line immediately sat in the official's seat.

The emperor is very familiar with this Taoist priest's tricks. Some swindlers in the world use fortune telling as an excuse to defraud money. However, the emperor is ready to continue to see what other tricks this Taoist priest has, so that an official who has read the Four Books and Five Classics is willing to take out his money.

silver.

After a while, another official came forward to ask about the Taoist priest's hexagram. The Taoist priest looked at the official's appearance, then looked at his clothes, frowned and said: "Pin Taoist Temple, the donor's destiny, the donor's destiny."

Damn, life is going to be rough, if we don’t get out of danger early, I’m afraid my life will be at risk.”

"Ah! I wonder if Master has any way to resolve it?" The official trembled with fright and asked quickly.

"Donor, Pindao, there are a few spirit beads here that can be used to resolve the problem, but the production process of the spirit beads is complicated and the price is quite high."

"Master, as long as you can save my life, I will give you any amount of money. I just ask you to help me resolve this disaster." The official blurted out without thinking.

When the emperor saw this, he winked at Eunuch Li beside him. Eunuch Li stretched his head and looked ahead, and saw clearly the official's face.

Seeing that the official opposite was so willing to pay, the Taoist priest couldn't help but raise his voice, "This spiritual pearl costs at least one hundred taels!"

Yinqi was curious on the sidelines. Isn't it rumored that this fortune teller doesn't tell fortunes, but only official promotions? Why did he start telling fortunes today?
