Chen Dao was shocked and said: "How can this mean that there is no merit and no reward..."
Marquis Yang Fu said with a smile: "Chen Jun also knows that no merit will be rewarded, and I, as a prince, will not take the money properly.
Now that you and I have accepted this money, in the future, if the ghost uncle of Hengting dares to ask for the sacrificial wine again, you and I will both help the sacrificial wine...
Could it be that Mr. Chen is unwilling to help Jijiu?"
Now that everything has been said, Chen Dao naturally has nothing to say.
Besides, it's not like he really doesn't like money.
Money, this kind of thing, no one doesn't like it.
It's just that Chen Dao values reputation more.
At this moment, the method Yang Fuhou said was reasonable. After taking Tao Xiaowu's money, he naturally wanted to provide Tao Xiaowu with a backer.
Well, if it's a matter in the underworld, it's okay to pay it off. I may not dare to accept the money.
But, things about ghosts and gods!
Huh, just a Hengting ghost uncle.
He really wasn't in the eyes of powerful people like Yang Fuhou and Hejian Chen.
Seeing Chen Dao's acquiescence, Marquis Yang Fu smiled slightly, looked at Tao Xiaowu, and said, "How about it!"
"Everything depends on the king's orders!" Tao Xiaowu said.
This time I finally felt much more comfortable mentally.
At least one third of the money was left behind.
The most important thing is that the threat of Hengting Ghost Uncle has finally been resolved!
Yang Fuhou smiled again. In fact, how could he hide the affairs of the palace from him?
Including the last conflict between Tao Xiaowu and Yu He, as well as everything that happened during the homework, he already knew it!
Looking at Tao Xiaowu at this moment, his eyes were full of satisfaction.
It’s not just about the money...
Money is not important to him.
For the Liang family, who have been rich for generations and have never been short of money, money is just a number.
For this title alone, the emperor's nephew allocated 30 million yuan to build a mansion for him!
What he was satisfied with was the reliability of Chen Dao and Tao Xiaowu.
Also, it seems that the sacrificial wine we found this time is obviously very capable!
Needless to say, there was no need to mention the last battle with Na Yue Wu Wu Guang.
Thinking of Tao Xiaowu, a wizard who had a feud with the ghost uncle of Hengting, he is still alive and kicking without being killed by the ghost uncle.
If Tao Xiaowu has no real ability, is it possible?
For Liang Xiu, the most important thing is that a powerful wizard with real abilities can preside over the sacrifices for him.
The most important thing for the country is to sacrifice to the military!
The most important family matter is sacrifice!
For the people of Middle-earth, two things are most important in life, the so-called honoring ancestors and inheriting the incense.
And to put it bluntly, this is just one thing.
The end of human life does not mean the end of everything. Death is just the beginning of another life.
How you live in the underworld depends entirely on the sacrifices of future generations.
To put it more seriously, the purpose of living in the human world is to offer sacrifices to our ancestors.
When the Japanese grow old and return to the underworld, their descendants will naturally offer sacrifices to you so that you can enjoy the ultimate happiness in the underworld.
So, things die as things live!
The emperor began to build the cemetery from the time he succeeded to the throne. Every year, one-third of the world's taxes were spent on building the cemetery and equipping it with funerary objects, and he continued to build it until his death.
And even Wu Cheng, before he died, wanted to take on a disciple like Tao Xiaowu. For what reason? Is it just for incense?
If you don’t understand this, you won’t understand why sacrifices are so important!
It was because of the importance of this matter that Tao Xiaowu initially gained the trust of Marquis Yang Fu.
"Sacrifice wine, from now on my family's sacrifices will all be entrusted to you!" Yang Fuhou solemnly saluted Tao Xiaowu.
Tao Xiaowu returned the gift and said, "Don't you dare not try your best!"
…
Even if this matter comes to an end for now.
However, Tao Xiaowu knew very well that this matter was not over yet.
The Hengting ghost uncle is a great god in the land, very powerful, and he is absolutely no match for him now.
But we'll have to wait and see. Sooner or later, we will have to settle this account with the ghost uncle Hengting!
"If I can gain the trust of the prince, and with the help of the prince's power, I can bring down that ghost uncle sooner or later..."
Tao Xiaowu thought this in his heart and sighed leisurely.
Although Wu Cheng was released, he actually suffered torture in the ghost prison and his soul was consumed a lot.
Although the Hengting ghost uncle also made up for it when he was released, it will not be so easy after all.
Furthermore, this Marquis Mansion is not a place that can accommodate a ghost like Wu Cheng, so he can only be sent back to Wu Li first, where he will sleep for a long time and recuperate.
"Unfortunately, my abilities are really limited. If I mastered the method of tempering, I might be able to save Master.
But the complete method of refining can only be used by ghosts and immortals at least...I am too far behind!"
Sighing in his heart, he could only let Qiu Shan send Wucheng back to Wuli for the time being, and let everyone in Wuli offer incense to him.
Now, in addition to practicing, Tao Xiaowu's goal is to run errands well, first gain a foothold in the Marquis Mansion, and then gain the trust of Marquis Yangfu.
Everything else can be put aside temporarily!
Although the Yangfuhou Family Temple is said to be a private temple, it is still built with enough style.
Although most of the main buildings of the entire mansion have not been completed, the ancestral temple and the private temple were completed first!
It is exactly what is said when a gentleman sets up his palace, the ancestral temple is first, the stables are second, and the residence is last.
Prioritize the construction of an ancestral temple to serve ancestors.
The stable, a space for raising horses and hiding things, was placed in second place. It not only provided the necessary reserves for sacrifices to serve the ancestors, but also provided living resources.
Therefore, it does not matter if the living person has no place to live. The first thing is to give the ancestors a place to live.
Although the Liang family used to be a wealthy family that was able to marry the marquis, in the final analysis, they were just common people without a title.
According to the etiquette system, common people do not have temples, so they offer sacrifices in their bedchambers.
Moreover, the sacrifices of common people cannot be sacrificed to ancestors, and distant ancestors can only be sacrificed to fathers and ancestors.
In other words, common people can only offer sacrifices to their fathers and grandfathers. And they can only place memorial tablets at home to offer sacrifices...
In another world, it was only after the Ming and Qing Dynasties that people began to build ancestral halls on a large scale to worship their ancestors!
Therefore, Yang Fuhou can now not only build five temples, but also build private temples to worship other ancestors.
Of course, it is said that in earlier times, etiquette and laws were stricter, and even the emperor and princes could not build private temples, but only ancestral temples...
Compared with the five ancestral temples of the princes, they only worship five ancestors.
In this temple, the spiritual tablets are placed densely.
For more than five generations, all the spiritual tablets of recent direct ancestors are enshrined here, with black gauze curtains gently fluttering.
The ground is made of large, flat blue bricks, which are laid so tightly that there are almost no gaps.
In the big cauldron, incense was burning, and curls of incense were floating in the air, spiraling up in the slight whirlwind. Everything was filled with a mysterious and solemn atmosphere.
