Zhu Tian: A journey of spiritual practice starting from Joy of Life

Chapter 161: Cangshan Jewelry Exhibition, Emperor Qing's Dream, Plot Advancement
"This is what the young lady left for you."

As the head shopkeeper spoke, he handed the ring to Leng Feibai and said, "Young lady told us that anyone who takes this ring to any shop under the Qingyutang Chamber of Commerce can withdraw 50,000 taels of silver every year for use. It's a pity that the Chamber of Commerce is now..."

Looking at the ring, Leng Feibai took it calmly and said, "Then let it be a souvenir. Elder, I will take my leave first."

Leng Feibai bowed and left Qing Yu Tang with Fan Xian.

The next morning, three carriages slowly drove out of Kyoto and headed towards Cangshan Mountain.

In the carriage, Leng Feibai closed his eyes in concentration, while Sang Wen sat quietly beside him.

"Sang Wen!"

Leng Feibai said calmly, "Are you used to living in Danzhou?"

Upon hearing this, Sang Wen was stunned and nodded, "It's not bad. Although it's not as prosperous as Kyoto, it's not bad either."

After hearing this, Leng Feibai looked out the window and said, "Take a good look around here. After a while, we'll be living in Danzhou permanently."

"Live in Danzhou?"

Sang Wen couldn't help but be stunned, and quickly said, "Husband, don't you plan to stay in Kyoto?"

“Kyoto is huge, and it’s not easy to live there.”

Leng Feibai said calmly, "My last name is Leng after all, and it's time for me to go back and take over the Leng family's business."

Sang Wen smiled after hearing this and said, "That's good. There are too many things going on in Kyoto. If I go back, there won't be so many things to worry about in Danzhou."

"Yes, I just hope that after Haitang marries you, you can get along well with her."

Leng Feibai deliberately said, "If there is unrest in the harem, I will have a headache."

After hearing this, Sang Wen's body began to tremble as if he had been electrocuted.

"There are some things I know clearly!" Leng Feibai held her hand and comforted her, "Don't worry, once we get to Danzhou, nothing will happen again. We can just live our lives well."

After hearing this, Sang Wen shed two hot tears, stood up and leaned in Leng Feibai's arms.

"Brother Feibai"

Fan Ruoruo suddenly lifted the curtain and ran in. The two people in the carriage immediately separated, and a hint of blush appeared on Sang Wen's face.

"Sorry."

A trace of embarrassment flashed across Fan Ruoruo's face, and she asked tentatively, "Should I leave first?"

"no need!"

Leng Feibai straightened his clothes and asked quickly, "Is there something wrong?"

Fan Ruoruo quickly sat down and told her the purpose of her visit.

"After returning from Cangshan, I will go to Northern Qi to become Master Ku He's disciple."

Fan Ruoruo frowned and said, "But I still don't know what I should learn when I get there. So I came to you for advice. My brother also had the same idea."

Because Old Loach had done something terrible by poisoning someone, Fan Ruoruo didn't learn any surgical techniques from Fan Xian.

Leng Feibai thought for a moment and then said, "Ku He's most impressive skills are martial arts and medical skills. You should mainly learn these two from him."

"Martial arts and medical skills?"

Fan Ruoruo nodded, then asked, "Brother, is there anything you want me to tell Sister Haitang?"

Leng Feibai sighed after hearing this and said, "I'll wait for her in Jiangnan in a few days."

After saying this, Leng Feibai couldn't help but cover his head, even though he had already reported Sang Wen's matter a long time ago.

But I have no idea what kind of variables it will trigger.

Leng Feibai was even thinking about whether he should use Fenghou Qimen to calculate the outcome of the matter.

"And one more thing."

Fan Ruoruo continued to ask, "Brother Feibai, do you know why my brother came to Cangshan?"

"Hmm," Leng Feibai said half seriously and half deliberately after hearing this, "Who are you, a monster? How dare you take my sister's body."

As he spoke, Leng Feibai raised his hand and patted Fan Ruoruo on the shoulder.

"Brother Feibai, stop making trouble!"

Fan Ruoruo looked helpless. "I know my brother is trying to make up for the shortfall in the inner treasury, but what else can he do?"

"You'll know then!"

After Leng Feibai finished speaking, he leaned against the carriage and closed his eyes to concentrate.

That evening, Leng Feibai and Fan Xian chatted in the hall where the treasury bond press conference was to be held the next day.

"Have the invitations been sent?"

Fan Xian nodded and said, "Yes, they've all been sent. They've replied, expressing their willingness to attend the meeting. But brother, do you think they're willing to buy treasury bonds?"

Leng Feibai thought for a moment and said, "Merchants value profit. If you can show them that treasury bonds can bring them huge profits, they will definitely buy them. And my treasures are enough as proof to persuade them to spend money. For specific matters, you can go find Fan Sizhe. His talent in business is far superior to yours and mine. Maybe he can give you a surprise."

Fan Xian nodded and said, "Then I'll go find him later. By the way, brother, how is the preparation for your jewelry showroom going?"

"It's already been arranged."

Leng Feibai stretched his shoulders and said calmly, "I'll just wait for the people to arrive tomorrow and move the things up. But..."

Leng Feibai's face suddenly flashed with anger. "When I think about my jewelry being used to fill Li Yunrui's hole, I can't help but want to punch her twice and make her eat porridge for the rest of her life."

"Calm down, calm down!"

Fan Xian hurriedly tried to comfort Leng Feibai, but Leng Feibai started laughing again.

"Brother, do you know why I want Li Yunrui to come back?"

Fan Xian looked at Leng Feibai, somewhat bewildered, and quickly asked, "To prevent her from setting me up again?"

"That's just one reason." Leng Feibai laughed after making sure no one was eavesdropping. "Secondly, if she's willing to come back, it will be a huge bomb that can kill her and Li Chengqian."

When Fan Xian heard this, he immediately became interested and asked quickly, "Brother, do you know any inside information?"

"Have you seen Curse of the Golden Flower?"

Leng Feibai smiled and said, “If you bring Li Chengqian and Li Yunrui into the Empress Yuan Xianghe’s body, you will know what is going on.”

The smile on Fan Xian's face suddenly stopped, and his whole face was filled with horror. "No, brother, you mean, you mean..."

"Those faceless paintings in the Crown Prince's Palace are portraits of Li Yunrui."

After hearing this, Fan Xian nearly fainted. After a while, he came to his senses and said in a tone that was half angry and half disgusted, "Li Chengqian thinks he is Yang Guo. Brother, you really should write The Return of the Condor Heroes."

At this moment, Fan Xian finally figured out one thing: why Li Chengqian was so surprised after knowing that Li Chengze and Li Yunrui were smuggling, and he also knew why he took a big risk and set fire to and massacred the entire Shijia Town.

"okay!"

Leng Feibai comforted him, "Go back and rest. We still have treasury debt matters to deal with tomorrow."

Fan Xian nodded, turned and left the conference hall.

Watching Fan Xian leave, Leng Feibai's eyes flashed with a hint of amusement. He turned around and sent a message to his clone who stayed in the palace, asking him to push the plot forward.

Inside the imperial palace, the clone who was still hiding on the beam in the form of a golden cicada yawned, raised his hand to the already soundly sleeping Emperor Qing, drew another talisman and threw it on him.

The talisman entered his body, and Emperor Qing, who was resting, fell asleep again.

At this moment, Emperor Qing was alone, wearing a black suit and walking in the corridor of the palace.

The weather at this moment was a thunderstorm with strong winds.

"Where have I come from?"

Emperor Qing was completely confused. After carefully observing the surrounding scenery, he could barely figure out that this was the road leading to Guangxin Palace.

"Why am I here?" Although Emperor Qing felt strange, he still walked towards Guangxin Palace involuntarily.
