Xia Yuhuai murmured in a low voice and looked at Li Dabao's retreating figure. Lu Qingfeng chased after him and said, "Master Xia, what should we do now?"
Xia Yuhuai gritted his teeth and said, "Let's go to Chenliu immediately!"
After Sheng Shaoqing became familiar with the process of the personal ceremony three days later, he began to make mental preparations to see his old friend again.
It was her helpless move to ask Lin Jin to pick up Li Dabao. If she hadn't seen Xia Yuhuai's slow progress, she quietly asked the system who the Li D in Xia Yuhuai's letter was. How could she have imagined that Li D was Li Dabao's?
Dear father.
Shouldn't this person's name be a taboo for his relatives? Why is it that the two men's names have a 100% repetition rate?
And the system directly issued a final arrest order to herself, asking her to resolve this mess within three days, otherwise it would deduct points from her.
It was obviously the system's fault, but now she was asked to take the blame. She really wanted to cry.
[Host, please don’t let this matter get worse because of your temporary benevolence as a woman.]
In this case, she had no choice but to hold a Hongmen banquet to invite Li Dabao to the banquet, and settle old and new scores together.
"Ajun, are you going to see if Mr. Lin is back?"
Cui Yun said helplessly, "Queen Mother, you have urged me several times. Wei Chen has also sent people to watch at the door. As soon as there is news, Wei Chen guarantees that you will know it immediately!"
"Alas," Sheng Shaoqing sighed, "I'm not nervous."
After a thousand journeys, seeing old friends again, even if I am used to making all the changes here, but this time I have to meet my immediate boss. Even if the status is reversed, Sheng Shaoqing's social animal attributes may be brought out again.
The system also complained helplessly: [Host, can you have some potential!]
Sheng Shaoqing looked up to the sky and wailed, "It's not my fault. Doesn't it mean I have PTSD when I see him?!"
Workers who work as fishermen suffer from stress all year round. When they see their boss, they want to AltTab. This psychological trauma is really difficult to heal.
Cui Yun asked curiously, "Who is this old friend that the Queen Mother is talking about? Is the Queen Mother so nervous?"
Sheng Shaoqing raised his eyes and looked at Cui Yun as if asking for help, "How should I put it...this person used to be like...the relationship between you and me."
"Weichen and you?"
Sheng Shaoqing nodded, "He is me, and I am you."
Cui Yun thought about it several times before he figured it out, "He used to have a higher status than the Queen Mother?!"
Sheng Shaoqing held his chin and muttered: "Yeah."
"how come?!"
"And even if it was like this before, you are the Queen Mother now! Apart from His Majesty, you are the most noble person in Da Liang. How can there be someone with a higher status than you?!"
"It's the past that I said, it's hard to look back on the past!"
Cui Yun didn't want to inquire about the Queen Mother's past affairs, so he lowered his head and said angrily, "The Queen Mother does not need to be nervous. If he dares to disrespect the Queen Mother based on his past affairs, I will be the first to kill him!"
Sheng Shaoqing knew that Cui Yun would be wrong, but it was hard to explain, so he just responded softly and said nothing.
"Queen Mother! Master Lin is back!"
The female history officer arranged by Cui Yun hurried in. Cui Yun also looked at Sheng Shaoqing nervously. Sheng Shaoqing turned to look at Cui Yun and mustered up the courage to say, "Go and invite her!"
After Cui Yun stepped out, Sheng Shaoqing's voice sounded again behind her, "Just wait outside for a while."
Li Dabao, led by Lin Jin, walked into the palace where Sheng Shaoqing was staying.
This palace was originally the palace of King Chenliu of the previous dynasty, and was later given to the Chenliu Wang family. This time Sheng Shaoqing went to Chenliu in person, and the Chenliu Wang family dedicated this villa and changed it to Sheng Shaoqing and others.
Human palace.
Therefore, although this palace is not large, its architectural style is noble and elegant, and its courtyard layout is also well-proportioned, giving it a unique Jiangnan charm.
Bypassing the atrium that looks like it's embracing the moon, you'll find the Tingyu Tower where Sheng Shaoqing currently lives.
Li Dabao held his breath since he entered the palace and did not dare to speak casually. Even though he had been a well-known local king in Fengchun before, people would praise him wherever he went. But in front of the weather of Tianjia, his little mountain
Without the tiger, the monkey's air of being the king would be vulnerable.
Li Dabao felt that he was like Grandma Liu who had just entered the Grand View Garden. Everything he saw was new wherever he went. It seemed that he had never seen anything good before!
He secretly thought in his heart, if Fengchun comes back, he will make his yard look like this! He can no longer look like this country bumpkin entering the city!
As he thought about it, he remembered that the Queen Mother was able to live here only because of reincarnation.
This compatriot of his is really good at reincarnation. Is he paying his membership fee to the Lord of Hell?
"Li Dabao, please wait here for a while. I will go and report to the Queen Mother Ming."
"Eh! Eh!"
Li Dabao couldn't help but nodded and agreed twice. As soon as he agreed, he wanted to give himself a big mouth.
After all, he has become the messenger of heaven, how can he be so groveling and servile?!
Now that we have entered this powerful realm, we have no choice but to bow down!
Lin Jin couldn't care less about Li Dabao, who had a changeable expression on his face. He only went into the inner courtyard to ask Cui Yun to tell him: Li Dabao has been brought here, is the Queen Mother free to see him now?
Cui Yun glanced outside the courtyard with a complicated expression, only to see a thin middle-aged man looking around curiously. As soon as he caught her gaze, he immediately lowered his head and pretended to be calm.
Is this the culprit that keeps the Queen Mother awake?
This man's attack power seems to be less than half that of Master Wei Zhenwei!
"Mr. Lin, the Queen Mother has ordered me to bring people in directly. Thank you for your hard work."
Lin Jin bowed and left, walked to Li Dabao and said, "The Queen Mother is going to see you right away. Get ready to go in. The person in front of you is Cui, the Queen Mother's assistant. If you have anything, just ask her."
Li Dabao stepped forward and saluted, stood up straight, straightened his back, and said without fear of Cui Yun's gaze, "Ms. Cui, please."
Cui Yun silently led the way, thinking only of one question: When did the Queen Mother get in touch with this person?
Sheng Shaoqing: In the previous life.
"Your Majesty, the people have been brought here, so the ministers will leave first."
Cui Yun said with some worry, "Wei Chen is right outside the door. If the Queen Mother has anything to do, just call Wei Chen."
Li Dabao stepped into the room with one foot and one foot was still outside. He felt a little regretful in his heart. However, this regret was not because he was timid about being close to home, but because he wanted to see him now, and she was the current Queen Mother!
Even though they are both modern people, they have no friendship and no relationship. Apart from a thin layer of similar relationship, there is nothing else.
but…………
Li Dabao suddenly realized that something was wrong. He came through time and space, and here he was almost blind. He made everything by himself, but how did the Queen Mother know about him and how did he know that he was in Fengchuncai Tower?
Suddenly remembering Lin Jin's words just now, a cold air suddenly crawled up his back. The Queen Mother... I'm afraid the person who came here is evil!
Li Dabao couldn't help but regret his recklessness. He would be sober if he was carried away by the momentary joy!
Who made the person before say that as long as he works hard, he will definitely be promoted step by step, and it will be just around the corner to become a marquis and prime minister.
Then of course he thought that the Empress Dowager summoned him to promote him to a higher rank...
Even though the meeting that had been postponed later turned into a meeting with fellow villagers, he didn't realize anything was wrong. Instead, he was even more excited to think that the fellow villagers would be able to do things easily.
But when things came to an end, he realized that he seemed to be a bit naive...
Who knows how long the Queen Mother has been here and whether she was assimilated into an old monster by the feudal autocracy?
Who knows if the Queen Mother knows what she has done before...
Then I remembered Xia Yuhuai's gloomy words: "Do you think you can come back?"
Li Dabao realized belatedly that there seemed to be a higher probability that the Queen Mother knew about it now...
Li Dabao was so frightened by his guess that his legs went weak and he was about to fall down, but he heard a young voice in his ear, "Since you and I are all compatriots, there is no need to pay such a big gift."
Li Dabao: Who wants to salute?
But now that the arrow is on the string, he can only pretend to be crazy, act like a fool, and hug his thighs to keep safe!
"Your Majesty, spare your life!"
"Happy Queen Mother!"
"The Queen Mother is a thousand years old!"
Sheng Shaoqing was speechless as he looked at Li Dabao, who kept kowtowing. Seeing his boss, who had bullied and beaten him before, kowtow like this... Why was it still a little... satisfying?
But Sheng Shaoqing quickly broke away from this emotion. For the sake of these three heads, let's forgive him for the time being, regardless of the past, only the present.
"Get up quickly."
"Have you read the note I gave you before?"
Sheng Shaoqing was actually a little confused. Since she had revealed her identity, why would Li Dabao still do this?
Li Dabao nodded, "I've seen it."
"Then you...are still like this?"
An awkward atmosphere rose until both of them were engulfed in it.
"Then you... aren't you still the Queen Mother?"
"Then aren't you also the founder of Tiancai Club?"
Li Dabao's heart "thumped", the Queen Mother really knew.
"How do you know that I am...with you...", Li Dabao asked hesitantly, "and that I am the messenger?"
"Those tricks you came up with, such as membership systems and monopolies, do you think these will exist now?"
Li Dabao was a little annoyed. He had known that he would have changed his name to be more low-key, so how did he know that there was another time traveler here?!
"As for how I know it's you, I have to keep this a secret. However, since your stone god is omnipotent, it's understandable that I have greater powers."
We can't just allow state officials to set fires, but not allow people to light lamps, right?
Li Dabao smiled bitterly and said, "Other people don't know, and you don't know. Isn't that just a lie?"
"You still know you are lying?!"
Sheng Shaoqing suddenly raised his voice by three degrees, which scared Li Dabao and slipped directly to the ground from his seat that had not been warmed. Li Dabao got up in embarrassment and thought to himself: Why is this tigress so scary?
"Those things you learned before are what made you come to ancient times to engage in fraud and pyramid schemes?!"
Li Dabao said helplessly, "I don't know how to do anything else."
"Besides, I don't have any promotion channels."
Li Dabao was even more aggrieved when he talked about this, "I'm not reincarnated like you. I was born noble. I was born as the son of a farmer. I not only want to turn over, but also want to use modern things to transform this backward dynasty."
"But I tried many methods, including agriculture, industry, and commerce. Only business still had something to do with my previous job, and I could still get a little familiar with it, so I had no choice but to start doing business."
"But businessmen are looked down upon by others. My model is simply not suitable here, and I lost money within a few days."
"Then you start a cult?"
Li Dabao shook his head firmly, "How is that possible?!"
"I was doing business at that time, and when passing by Spring Mountain, I discovered a kind of stone that would produce different textures over time. Everyone liked to use this stone to make bonsai."
“I thought to myself, isn’t this business opportunity coming?!”
"Stones are not expensive. They are low-cost. They only need to be packaged a little and you can make a lot of money!"
"In the beginning, it was really profitable. If you make up a story and just say that it was transformed into the stone left by Nuwa to mend the sky, you can attract a lot of enemies to buy it."
"But in the end, everyone got tired of hearing this rhetoric."
Sheng Shaoqing said speechlessly, "So you just made up a story about eating it to make you immortal and becoming an immortal and continue to deceive people?"
"What! This is all based on rumors and rumors!"
"This kind of stone is temperature-sensitive. It is a temperature-sensitive material and can also store heat energy. Do you know that it is temperature-sensitive?"
Sheng Shaoqing: "Of course! This is my major!"
Li Dabao wondered, "Is there really such a major?"
Seeing Sheng Shaoqing's unkind look, Li Dabao quickly got back to the point and said, "Then I'll tell them to heat this stone on the fire, and then apply it on the eyes at night to dissipate heat. It can activate blood circulation and remove blood stasis. Is there anything wrong with that?"
Sheng Shaoqing nodded, and Li Dabao continued, "Who knew that someone would really use it later, and it would actually have an effect by accident. It was passed down from ten to ten, and it became the sacred stone it is today..."
Sheng Shaoqing:…………
“My mother tongue is speechless!!!”
Li Dabao smiled and said, "I'm speechless too. Who knew they were so easy to deceive..."
Sheng Shaoqing looked at Li Dabao angrily. Li Dabao took this look and immediately changed his words and said, "No, no, it's my fault, it's my fault."
"What about your membership and monopoly?"
"Isn't this a bastard who doesn't want to earn money..."
"you!"
"But now I know I was wrong! I will definitely change it, I will definitely change it!"
Sheng Shaoqing snorted coldly, "Li Dabao, your problems are not just these, right?"
Li Dabao grinned bitterly, knowing that the Queen Mother knew...
"I heard that your Tiancai Association has already made a rebellion?"
Sheng Shaoqing cut straight to the heart of Li Dabao with a sharp knife.
Li Dabao retracted his trembling hands into his sleeves, knowing that this would happen...
"Queen Mother...no...listen to my explanation..."
"This matter... it's complicated to say it's complicated, it's simple to say it's simple... but..."
"To sum it up...just a few points..."
"This is important, I think... you also understand..."
"stop!"
Sheng Shaoqing said indifferently, "Li Dabao, don't give me your nonsense about literature. Didn't you speak fluently just now?"
