Happy Little Scholar

"Who are you and how did you get in?" Zhao Zheng asked coldly with an extremely alert expression on his face while slowly moving towards the door. There were 500 guards outside the post station, and his personal guards were around this room. He really couldn't figure out how this old man broke through the guards and got in here? The masked old man shook his hand, and the chopsticks in his hand shot out, passed by Zhao Zheng's eyes, and sank deeply into the door frame. He looked at the prince of noble status in Qi State and said, "Don't worry, I won't hurt you." Looking at the two jade chopsticks that were very easy to break, inserted straight into the door frame, Zhao Zheng knew that it didn't matter how the other party walked into this courtyard under heavy guard. The important thing was that the jade chopsticks could be inserted into the door, and naturally they could also be inserted into his head, heart, or other places. He closed his eyes, took a deep breath, and when he opened his eyes again, his eyes had regained their calmness. He walked over, bowed to the masked old man, and said, "I'm sorry for being rude just now. I wonder what you want to teach me when you visit me so late at night?"

Since the other party has such terrifying strength, but did not kill him immediately, it means that he did not come to kill him. In this case, everything can be discussed.

The masked old man took a sip of wine, then looked at him and asked, "I heard that you have obtained a wonderful method these days. Are you using that method to investigate cases and catch corrupt officials?"

Zhao Zheng raised his eyebrows, and for a moment he didn't know the real intention of the old man.

Is there someone he cares about in the list, or because of this matter, some of his interests have been touched?

He looked at the old man and said tentatively: "If this matter offends the senior, I apologize to the senior. If the senior has any request, Zhao Zheng will definitely try his best to meet it."

Pah!

The masked old man slapped the table fiercely, making a crisp sound, which also made Zhao Zheng's heart tighten.

The masked old man raised his eyebrows, looked at him, and said coldly: "Do you know that the method is called "debit and credit accounting method", which is a secret that my master spent 30 years to research, but it was stolen by a traitor. When I chased out to kill the traitor of my master, I found that this thing was actually obtained by you. Tell me, where did you get this method?"

Zhao Zheng was stunned after hearing this, and immediately realized something.

Sure enough, the God of Money is just a lowly businessman, how could he come up with such a wonderful method? He must have got it from somewhere, took it for himself, and then took credit in front of him...

Such a clumsy method, how could he hide it from him, Zhao Zheng seemed to have seen through everything.

He clasped his fists to the old man and said apologetically: "Senior, I'm really sorry. I really didn't know. This is the secret of your master. I hope you will forgive me. I am willing to compensate you. I wonder if I can do anything for you?"

What he feared most at this moment was that this old man had extraordinary martial arts skills and a stubborn mind. He was not interested in gold, silver and power. As long as he asked for something, he would be safe.

"Shut up! How can I be greedy for power and wealth? I know you are the eldest prince of Qi, but you can't humiliate me like this!"

Pah!

The masked old man said coldly, and slapped the table again, which made Zhao Zheng's heart jump suddenly, and he subconsciously wanted to shout loudly.

"Here."

The masked old man took out a piece of black cloth from his arms and handed it to Zhao Zheng.

Zhao Zheng opened his mouth halfway, his back was wet with cold sweat, his heart was tangled, but he saw that the old man just handed him something, and he was stunned for a while.

After a long time, seeing that the old man really had no intention of killing him, he finally let go of his hanging heart and asked carefully: "Senior, I wonder what this is?"

The masked old man said slowly: "My entire sect has devoted thirty years of hard research to research this secret method. The purpose is to present it to the court, purge the corrupt officials of Qi State, and return the world to peace and prosperity. But I didn't expect that there would be a traitor in the sect and the secret method would be stolen. I was worried that this method would be used by other countries, so I chased it out. I just arrived in Fengzhou and heard about it."

Zhao Zheng was stunned again and asked: "Then what does the senior mean... "

"You are very good. You have eliminated corrupt officials without any leniency. You have done good things for the country and the people. I have seen it all these days." The masked old man stood up, patted him on the shoulder, and said, "The traitor stole only the fragments of the first part of the secret method. What is inside is the whole secret method. I will pass it on to you now. I hope you can keep your original intention in the future. Don't give up because of those people with ulterior motives, and don't let down the intentions of me and my master. If there are no corrupt officials, the people will never have peace..."

The reversal of events was too sudden, and Zhao Zheng was a little bit unable to react for a while.

The killer who attacked the post station at night suddenly became selfless for the country and the people. He needed time to digest it.

"Thank you, senior. Zhao Zheng will definitely live up to your expectations!"

Soon, Zhao Zheng understood that he must have hit the jackpot today. The fragment of the upper part can have such an effect. If he can get both the complete parts, wouldn't he be able to dominate the court?

Although he didn't know what school this old man belonged to, the person who could research this method must be extraordinary. Maybe there are some more powerful things in it. If he could get it...

The masked old man said in a deep voice: "Here are the complete "debit and credit accounting method", as well as a wonderful way to govern the country and fill the national treasury. You must keep it properly and remember not to spread it. If it is obtained by other countries, the consequences will be disastrous."

Zhao Zheng was happy in his heart, but a look of solemnity appeared on his face. He nodded and said: "Senior, don't worry, after seeing it, I will burn it completely without leaving any trace."

The old man nodded and asked: "Now tell me, where did you get this method?"

Zhao Zheng replied without hesitation: "The God of Money, the God of Money in Fengzhou, this method was dedicated to him."

"The God of Money..." The masked old man nodded and said, "The things have been delivered and I'm leaving. I hope you won't disappoint me."

Zhao Zheng said hurriedly: "I don't know the name of my senior yet. He has made great contributions to our country of Qi. Please leave your name. In the future, Zhao Zheng will definitely write a book and erect a monument for my senior so that people all over the world can admire him."

"Hahaha, I have done my best for the country, am I, Xu Tian, ​​a vulgar person who has done good things and left a name everywhere?" The old man laughed and said, "We'll see each other again forever!"

He waved his sleeves, and the door opened immediately. Zhao Zheng blinked, and there was no one at the door.

Zhao Zheng walked out quickly, and a guard immediately came over from the courtyard and bowed: "Your Highness, what do you want me to do?"

Zhao Zheng glanced at them and asked, "Did you see someone leaving my room just now?"

The two guards looked at each other, shook their heads, and said, "No, just His Highness..."

"Okay, it's okay. You go down. In a quarter of an hour, let the person in charge of the guard station come to see me." Zhao Zheng waved to them, went back to the room, and looked at the table wrapped in black cloth. Something, a trace of unconcealable heat appeared in his eyes...
