Fantasy: Starting Out as a Gigolo, Born a Confucian Sage

Chapter 178

According to what Shen Wuming saw before he traveled through time, the relationship between Chinese father and son is very complicated.

They are father and son, as well as king and minister.

Except when the father is lying on the hospital bed dying, it is difficult to have the tenderness found in literary works.

It shows more of a mechanized rigidity, metaphysical care, and orders and execution between superiors and subordinates.

Even a dandy like Yang Yuanqing was extremely afraid of Yang Wanchun and trembled when he heard the sound.

After regaining his composure, he blinked, "What brain? Dad, you know I don't have any brains."

"If you have any questions, ask Wuming. Wuming's brain is very good. Let me tell you, he just..."

Yang Yuanqing was not really brainless. He reacted quickly and changed the topic to Shen Wuming.

Especially the conversation between Shen Wuming and Fang Daoyuan and others just now. He seemed to be having a drinking contest, but in fact, he kept it in mind secretly.

“As for this strategy of dredging rivers and strengthening embankments, we are definitely far ahead.”

"If you ask me, you should write a letter and tell His Majesty. If it is implemented, it will benefit the country and the people."

As expected, Yang Wanchun was fooled by his trick, and his attention soon fell on Shen Wuming.

"Wu Ming, is this traitor telling the truth?"

"It's true." Shen Wuming spread his hands, "But it's useless to write to His Majesty."

"Why?" Yang Wanchun was puzzled. Didn't His Majesty implement the previous technique of building bridges with oysters?

"No money."

Shen Wuming counted on his fingers, "Judging from Dahan's current water area, this cost will be at least one billion silver taels!"

"Even if we move the imperial treasury three times, we may not be able to carry out such a huge project."

"It makes sense." After all, Yang Wanchun was an old Jianghu, and he quickly figured out the link.

"Looking at it this way..."

When he hesitated, Yang Yuanqing interrupted him, "Whether it can be implemented or not is one thing."

"What we have to do is just to let His Majesty see our loyalty and that we are thinking about the country."

"And Wuming will definitely shine in the imperial examination, and he will be assigned an official position by then."

"It won't be too bad to let him show his face in front of everyone first and arrange official positions later."

"As far as the country is concerned, even if it cannot be implemented in a short time, at least there is a way."

"Whenever the treasury becomes looser, it won't be too late to make arrangements. Do you think this is true?"

What Yang Yuanqing said made sense, and Yang Wanchun fell into thinking again.

"elder sister!"

Su Dingfang climbed over the eaves and walls, climbed into the inn along the beams, jumped out of Su Xiaoxiao's window, and knocked.

"Come in."

Su Xiaoxiao's charming voice sounded, even if she wasn't deliberately pretentious, it was still so captivating.

Su Dingfang pushed open the window and climbed in, "I heard about your benefactor."

"As expected, your benefactor will show off wherever he goes!"

Su Xiaoxiao glared at him dissatisfiedly, "If you have anything to say, say it. If you criticize your benefactor behind his back again, I'll beat you up."

"Okay, okay, okay."

Su Dingfang shook his tail in displeasure, "I'll beat up your own brother for being a wild man."

"I will tell my mother later that if you can't eat and walk around, you will be nagged for a year."

As the younger brother of the same mother, Su Dingfang expressed his heartache. Who knows the suffering of his original family?

"If you dare to complain, I will continue to beat you. Anyway, my mother won't beat me. You see who of us will suffer."

Su Xiaoxiao snorted, "Hurry up and say it."

Su Dingfang said angrily, "Your benefactor was arrested just now, and those people are going to kill him in the cell."

"What?" Su Xiaoxiao's face changed drastically, "What's the situation now? I'm going to save my benefactor."

"Don't be impatient..."

Seeing Su Xiaoxiao who was about to push the door out, Su Dingfang quickly stepped forward and tugged at the hem of her skirt with his little paws.

"I told you it was just now, and now you have been released. And do you know that scene?"

"Dali Temple, Tianshi Dao, Taisheng, Buddhists, King Changle, Duke Rongguo... a lot of people came out to save him."

"You didn't see that scene. Even the Left Prime Minister was alarmed and came to the Yamen himself to release the man."

The Jingzhao Mansion Yamen does not hold court sessions on weekdays, but it is difficult to hear the case and attract countless people's attention.

Especially Mr. Jing, who has roots in the imperial city. He doesn't have much fun on weekdays and is planning to take a good look.

The result was a good show.

After Shen Wuming left, the news spread quickly like it had wings, and everyone knew about it.

If not, Su Dingfang would not have inquired so clearly.

In the mouths of some storytellers, this incident is even interpreted, similar to a young hero fighting a corrupt official.

"Now the whole capital knows that you can mess with anyone, but you can't mess with your benefactor."

Su Xiaoxiao breathed a sigh of relief, "It's good that my benefactor is fine, it's fine that everything is fine."

"cut."

Su Dingfang pouted. Even if she was in jail, she might not care so much, right?

"Sister, tell me the truth, have you developed some different feelings for your benefactor?"

"Is it possible that we really have to abide by the ancient agreement between the fox clan and the human clan and are we prepared to commit ourselves to each other?"

Su Xiaoxiao blushed and couldn't help but think of the umbrella her benefactor gave her on that rainy night.

It was originally agreed that I would return it to my benefactor when I returned to Zhongshan County.

But this is the only gift that the benefactor gave her. Every time she saw it, she had a thought.

So later, she pretended to forget this matter and kept the umbrella well.

She didn't want to return it.

Now that Su Dingfang said this, Su Xiaoxiao couldn't help but ask herself, is it really...

"What are you talking about?"

After a long time, Su Xiaoxiao glared at him, "It's just because repaying the favor is related to my great way."

"If I can't repay the favor, I will never be able to cultivate into a nine-tailed fox. I'm doing this for the great way."

"Yes, it's for the great way."

Su Xiaoxiao emphasized it again, and Su Dingfang next to him smiled disdainfully.

The demon will only repeat it when it is deceiving itself, trying to brainwash itself.

It was a long time again.

Su Xiaoxiao suddenly spoke up, "Su Dingfang, do you think I should go to my benefactor's side?"

"He is alone in the capital, no one takes care of him, and some even want to harm him."

"If I were by his side, I could help and protect him, don't you think?"

Su Dingfang rolled his eyes, "If I say no, will you not go?

...

At night.

Shen Wuming fell asleep peacefully, but unexpectedly, not long after falling asleep, he came to that magical dream again.

On the arch bridge.

The woman who didn't know whether she was a human or a ghost changed into a light yellow plain long dress.

Hooked her finger at him.
