Chapter 734 Heartbroken, Most of Them Are Scholars

Humans and ghosts have different paths.

And the combination of man and god is even more chaotic.

Which serious city god dares to take a girl from the Jiaofang Secretary as a concubine? From Lu Li's point of view, that Taoist priest was like a ghost enslaved by a tiger spirit!

As for why he would focus on Jiaofang Secretary.

No answer for now.

"It must be a demon." The junior brother was furious. He heard the present, and with his own knowledge, he told the truth: "The city god never accepts filial piety from the world, let alone harming girls."

Since the Northern Song Dynasty, there has been an unwritten rule in the imperial courts of all dynasties. Whenever a new official takes office, he must go to the Chenghuang Temple to fast and sleep on the first day, and ask the Chenghuang Lord to manage local affairs with him.

And Ouyang Xiu, a great Confucian whom my younger brother admired the most, once wrote an article offering sacrifices to the City God, which mentioned:

Officials do their best, gods bless their spirits, and serve their duties, worthy of the people.

That is, human officials and local government officials depend on each other, respect each other, and manage the people under their jurisdiction well.

Therefore, not to mention using this kind of low-handed means to deceive girls, even if they want incense and tribute, the city god is also acting aboveboard, and first bless one side with good weather and clear black and white.

And after the fantasy was punctured.

Scholar Song sighed, he had been lying to himself before, that it would be a great blessing for Miss Jiaofangsi to marry the local city god as a concubine.

However, after twenty years of sage books, he hadn't read the dog's stomach. He hesitated for a long time and chose to come to the Hou Mansion first for help.

"Have you ever met the City God?"

Han Yu asked, one hand had already rested on the Severing Evil Steel Sword, and he said in his heart:

Not long ago, I just knelt in front of Laojun and Patriarch, saying that I want to kill all the evil spirits in the world and return the world to a bright and bright world. Unexpectedly, as soon as I returned to the Hou Mansion, I heard that there was a fake city god persecuting scholars. I dare not sleep, for fear of dreaming that my patriarch would question him!

"No." Scholar Song shook his head, his eyes dodged, "The Taoist asked us to send people to the Town God's Temple at night."

After asking twice, he felt more and more ashamed.

As Lu Li and others said, the real City God would never act like this. In fact, Song Shusheng had realized this a long time ago, but he was lucky. Maybe the City God was real.

The girl married and enjoyed the blessings, brother Shen came back safely, Jinling City God was happy, everyone was happy.

In addition, Song Scholar did not admit one thing, let alone dare to think deeply, that is, he vaguely felt that exchanging the life of an official prostitute for the life of a young man was totally worth it.

What is an official prostitute?

It is those criminals who are considered by the court to be heinous and heinous. Their mothers, sisters, sisters, and daughters, no matter how big or small, are all sent to the Jiaofang Division, where dignitaries and dignitaries molest and entertain themselves with prostitutes.

The imperial court has already defined it in this way, so why should it be taken too seriously? In the past, when sleeping with girls, they said a few words of lovesickness, and then pretended to read a few words of people leaning on the building, pretending to be lonely in life, but did not say a word about themselves I don't know how many girls I've told about this, it's just to make people happy and play with flirting.

Of course, to be honest, it's a spoiler.

What's more, they are masters who are qualified to be officials, and it is clear at a glance which is more important.

"A gentleman doesn't care about his mind when he talks about deeds, but there is no saint when he talks about his mind."

At this moment, Scholar Song kept repeating these words in his heart, and then, feeling much better, he looked at Lu Li eagerly.

aside.

Qingfeng hugged her sweetheart tightly, and tears fell down. She had been in Jiaofangsi, no matter how bitter her heart was, she had to laugh to make her benefactor happy. To receive customers all day long, you have to rest. No matter what the guests look like, you must greet them with a smile and a song.

It was already so miserable, and she was still being targeted by ghosts and heartbreakers. According to the thief Taoist, several girls had already been robbed and sent to the Temple of the City God.

"The righteous half follow the dog-killing generation, and the heartless are mostly scholars."

Seeing Qingfeng crying pear blossoms with rain, Lu Li sighed, this is indeed true, and pure-minded scholars like the younger brother are in the minority after all.

If I didn't come back before dark, how would this group of Confucian scholars choose?

The girl who was sent there before is proof.

And Song Shusheng, who was attracted by Lu Li, pretended to be calm, cupped his hands and said, "I also ask the little lord to help and save Brother Shen. He is famous for his talent and he is the only son in the family..."

Lu Li turned his attention to Qingfeng.

Out of emotion, reason, and his own interests, he had to go through this Town God's Temple.

Next to him, the younger brother who has always been timid and afraid of ghosts is also clamoring to go, using Mr. Tiantai's calligraphy to suppress the fake Chenghuang who doesn't know the way.

"Wait for me to explain things to the servants at home."

With that said, Lu Li made a move.

The young boy in Tsing Yi who was standing by the main entrance ran over immediately. Every dude had a shrewd dog-legged figure beside him. Although he couldn't make a big deal, he was better than being loyal.

When I left the mansion at noon, I left it to him to manage the relationship in the prison.

"Young Lord, everything is settled, and he will be locked at the bottom floor of the Jinling Prison."

"The guard heard that you were coming, so he specially took a bath for Mr. Fu, changed into a new prison uniform, and entertained him with delicious food and drinks."

Speaking of this, the young man in Tsing Yi looked at the girl Qingfeng with slightly swollen eyes, showed a flattering smile, and said: "The villain took a special look, Mr. Fu is in good spirits, and his body is still strong, and he can still read "The Complete Book of Zhuzi" Woolen cloth."

"Well, well done."

Lu Li nodded, and took the token from Jinling Prison from the servant: "I'll reward you when I come back from my work."

Only when rewards and punishments are clearly defined can people be convinced.

Having a clever domestic servant to help with mundane matters can indeed save a lot of worry.

"It's my duty to do things for the young master."

No wonder he was favored by his self in this world before, he could indeed speak, and he still had eyesight.

While Lu Li was feeling emotional, he saw that the boy left without any delay, obviously knowing that he had something to do next.

"Qingfeng, after dealing with the matter of the City God, we will go straight to Jinling Prison to visit my father-in-law."

There was a deep sense of relief in Lu Li's tone.

The yamen in charge of night watch is Wucheng Bingmasi, holding the signboard of Houfu, no one dares to stop it.

What's more, no one dared to stop Lu Li from wherever he wanted to go.

"Do you want to accompany me?" Han Yu Daotong glanced at Song Shusheng and his party.

At the same time, the junior brother hurriedly said: "Wait for me, go back to the room and bring some things, and go with you."

"Forget it, we don't have the skills to be around, so we won't bother you." Scholar Song smiled awkwardly, and added: "We can only hold a banquet at the Fule Courtyard by the Qinhuai River and wait for the good news. "

Fuleyuan is the most luxurious brothel in Jinling. It not only has beauties, but also delicious food and beautiful scenery. It was built by the emperor Taizu himself.

Lu Li waved his hand, directly refusing the group of people's thanks, and waited for the juniors to come out, and they were all present, then they were on their way.

It can be predicted that he will be extraordinarily busy tonight.
