Since the incident involving the Confucian scholars last time, Tao Xiaowu's prestige in the prince's mansion has greatly increased, and many people in the mansion have been asking for help.
I originally thought that Tao Xiaowu Ya'an was too conceited and hard to talk to.
But I didn't expect that Tao Xiaowu would respond to every request, and more and more people would come to ask for it.
Of course, this also made Tao Xiaowu's reputation become better and better in the Hou Mansion, and people praised him.
Apart from anything else, people like Tao Xiaowu don't fight for power, act in a low-key manner, and have almost no conflicts with anyone in the house.
Who doesn’t like people who are eager to help?
At this moment, after listening to Bai Sheng's words, Tao Xiaowu smiled and said: "Mr. Bai, there is no need to be polite, we are all kings and ministers. If Mr. Bai invites me, I will naturally not refuse!"
When Bai Sheng heard this, he was overjoyed and hurriedly asked someone to offer him 50,000 yuan: "It's just your wish, don't refuse the wine sacrifice. I was already uneasy about labor and wine sacrifice, but now if I don't accept the money, the servants will not dare to ask for it shamelessly."
Got it!"
Wizards charge money for performing rituals. This is the rule.
Now that he said that, Tao Xiaowu would not be hypocritical and ordered Qin Feng to accept the money and take Qiu Shan and Bai Sheng out together.
After Tao Xiaowu beat out those Confucian scholars last time, it was obvious that Yang Fuhou's attitude towards him became more friendly.
Although I haven't fully figured it out yet, I have heard some hints from Chen Dao before and know that Marquis Yang Fu doesn't like Confucian scholars.
Therefore, Tao Xiaowu went out in a big way. If he really encountered a Confucian scholar looking for trouble again, he would just deal with it.
At this time, following Bai Sheng, we went all the way to Xieyang. It was actually not far away, just next door, and the round trip was only twenty or thirty miles away.
"...Brother Bai Jing was originally an official of the Emperor's Qiandi. Now he followed the Emperor to Shenluo, but his family is still here in Xieyang..."
Along the way, Bai Jing introduced the situation to Tao Xiaowu.
Tao Xiaowu was slightly startled, not expecting that there was such a relationship.
Today, I am the Marquis of Xie County, and my fiefdom is in Xieyang.
Unexpectedly, Bai Sheng's brother was an official in the Marquis' Mansion in Xie County.
This is the emperor's minister in Qiandi. If he is brought to Shenluo, he will be his confidant.
Fortunately, I plant more flowers and less thorns, and I am kind to others. Otherwise, I would have offended others if I did not do well this time.
The King of Hell is very troublesome with little devils, and the people around big men are actually the most troublesome.
If you offend these people, you may twist your mouth and the people below may be in trouble!
At this time, he said: "There was a letter from home the day before yesterday, saying that my old mother dreamed of her late father complaining about it, saying that she was convicted of the crime of being imprisoned by the Lord, and now she cannot live in peace..."
The master of the tomb prison is a position held by ghosts and gods, which is equivalent to the warden of a human prison.
How could Bai Sheng's dead father offend this ghost and god?
He was confused, but he asked: "Don't you think the Lord of Tomb Prison will give you some face?"
Bai Sheng smiled bitterly and said: "Although my brother is an errand in the emperor's and marquis' mansions, he is just a minor official, just fighting for food. How can this ghost and god give me face?"
Fortunately, you are offering wine to the Marquis Mansion, I think this ghost and god will give the wine sacrifice some dignity!"
Tao Xiaowu listened, but felt vaguely that something was wrong.
Ever since he offended those Confucian scholars, he had been very vigilant, especially when he left the Marquis' Mansion, to be prepared for revenge.
At this moment, I have some doubts. Although the Bai Sheng brothers are both minor officials, they are seventh-rank officials in front of the prime minister.
Although this is a bit exaggerated, generally speaking, if Na Bai Sheng's dead father hadn't offended Na Master Tomb Prison Shi too much, he wouldn't have done anything wrong.
Does this mean that the prison master doesn't care about the Bai brothers at all, or does he have other plans?
Thinking like this, Tao Xiaowu smiled and said: "Leave this matter to me. I will try my best to rescue my late father Zunji!"
Yum was overjoyed after hearing this and thanked Tao Xiaowu again.
…
At night, Tao Xiaowu's soul was floating in the air and had descended to the underworld.
It's dark everywhere here, but you can also see little bits of bright light scattered here and there.
Once the distance is close, you can reach each of those blessed lands.
The biggest bright spot is a city high up in the sky. From a distance, it looks like a city in the sky.
There is the city of Hengxia!
If Bai Sheng's father was in Hengxia City, Tao Xiaowu would be powerless.
Although the ghost uncle of Hengting had already given up and apologized, Tao Xiaowu would never go looking for trouble.
Fortunately, Bai Sheng's father Bai Qi is not in Hengting.
I saw a courtyard, like a courtyard. Although it was not very large, it had everything it needed and was protected by bright light.
This is the incense and virtue of the Bai family!
As the ancients said, things die as things live.
Even in the tomb, the layout is the same as before life.
And the richer people are, the more particular they are!
The layout of the cemetery is the same as the house in his lifetime, with front and back yards, wells, furniture, and even watchdogs, etc...
In a world with gods, this is not meaningless.
But it will be projected in the underworld.
At this time, the Bai family's courtyard is obviously a projection of the tomb pattern.
"I came all the way and saw this large manor in the underworld, which looked like a fortress..."
Tao Xiaowu thought to himself: "It seems that the underworld is really dangerous!"
The ancestral home of the Bai Sheng family in the underworld is not that large in scale. Although it has high walls, it looks more like a courtyard.
This means that the Bai family does not have deep roots in the underworld!
No wonder he was bullied by that master tomb prisoner.
Thinking of this, the closed door suddenly opened, and an old woman walked out with several servants and servants, prostrating: "Thank you for coming to visit me, but my husband has been arrested by the master of the tomb prison, so why not?"
Please offer wine to save your life!"
"How long have you been there?"
"Just left!"
"Wait a moment, madam. I'll be back after I save someone!"
With that said, Tao Xiaowu had already chased him out and shuttled through the layers of dark land.
It is strange to say that in this underworld, one can see mountains and rivers with shadows in the distance.
However, you can't see far from the nearby place, which is only within ten or so steps. Any further away seems to be submerged in darkness.
However, this was not difficult for Tao Xiaowu, and he quickly caught up with a convoy.
With two light vehicles, escorted by a group of ghost soldiers, they headed towards the city of Hengxia!
When they saw Tao Xiaowu coming in the form of a ray of white light, they were immediately frightened and lined up to protect the two carriages in the middle.
"Here are the ghost officials. Who are you? You dare to collide with them?"
A ghost soldier captain stood up and shouted with a knife.
"I am Marquis Yangfu offering wine!" Tao Xiaowu said calmly: "Please come out and meet me, the Master of the Tomb and Prison Prison!"
Of the two carriages, one was carrying people and the other seemed to be a prison carriage.
You can see a ghost locked in the prison car, presumably Bai Sheng's father Bai Qi.
Just hearing that Tao Xiaowu was actually offering wine at the Yangfu Marquis Mansion, all the ghost soldiers were shocked and a little confused.
