I Have A Seal Of Two Realms

After going out in the middle of the night and bidding farewell to Duan Changzai, Lu Zheng returned to the inn alone, packed up all the things he had bought and delivered during the day, and then fell asleep.

A night of silence.

Early the next morning, Lu Zheng did not leave the city immediately, but first went to the Zhenji Pawnshop in the east of the city. According to Duan Changzai, this pawnshop was a time-honored brand in Yizhou Prefecture, with fair prices, good business practices, and good business practices. Integrity is well-known.

However, despite the thousands of dollars in business, Lu Zheng still stayed in the pawn shop for nearly an hour, and did not leave the city until noon.

Speaking of which, I gained quite a lot from my visit to Yizhou City this time. Selling another ornament was one of them. Meeting more practitioners was the more important gain.

I won’t talk about the two female goblins and the masters of the Zhenyi Division. I will just say that the old monk is a master who cannot be messed with. The reality of this world has been revealed to him while ensuring safety. A piece of skirt.

…

At the end of Youshi, it was already night. Lu Zheng rode fast for most of the day and arrived at a ferry in Lushui.

The Lushui River runs through Yizhou and is one of the three major rivers in Yizhou. The river is several miles wide and its depth is difficult to tell. On weekdays, there are small boats and passenger boats ferrying it across, and some cargo ships also make some extra money.

Of course, boating is done during the day, but now it is pitch dark and the river is turbulent at night. All the boats have docked, but no one dares to go boating at night.

So after Lu Zheng arrived at the Dukou Inn, he got off his horse and knocked on the door to call for help.

"Come on, come on!" The store clerk complained from far away, "It's so late, why are there still people? I'm quite brave. In the wilderness, I'm not afraid of seeing ghosts when walking at night."

"Squeak!"

When he opened the door and saw Lu Zheng, the store clerk was intimidated by his aura and put a smile on his face, "Young Master, please! I'll hold the horse for you!"

Lu Zheng nodded, handed the reins to the boy, and then stretched out his hand to pick up all the goods on the horse as if they were nothing. The boy's eyes twitched, and then he realized that he was a capable master in front of him, so he frowned. He led the horse away with droopy eyes, fearing that Lu Zheng would pursue him for his disrespectful words just now.

When Lu Zheng walked into the inn, he found that there were many people in the lobby of the inn, sitting together in twos and threes, drinking, eating, and chatting.

"Um?"

Lu Zheng's eyes flashed and he saw a dozen strong men sitting around two tables pushed together. Although they had no wine, they ate a lot of meat. One of the two leaders was quite majestic, and the other was calm and capable.

"Xiongfeng Escort Agency?"

It was the people from the Xiongfeng Escort Agency that he saw when he left the city yesterday.

It's just that the Escort walked slowly, and Lu Zheng caught up with him in half a day of the two-day trip.

When Lu Zheng saw them, they naturally also saw Lu Zheng. Seeing that Lu Zheng was carrying a lot of things as if they were nothing, the majestic escort nodded, "He's a practicing master."

Lu Zheng nodded and smiled, saying hello. Then he glanced around and saw that there were several scholars, street vendors, various craftsmen, etc. in the lobby. They didn't look out of the ordinary.

"Do you want to stay in the hotel?" the innkeeper smiled and greeted him, "I'm just sorry, the hotel's rooms are full, and there are only two upper rooms left. At this price..."

"Want a room." Lu Zheng said calmly, without asking the price at all.

"Yes, yes, Xiao Tangzi, take the guests to the west room on the third floor!" The shopkeeper greeted the waiter who just came in and asked him to lead the way.

…

Following Xiao Tangzi up to the third floor and into the west room, Lu Zheng saw the waiter lighting the oil lamp on the table. Lu Zheng looked around the room along the light and curled his lips.

"Have you had your dinner, sir? Do you want me to ask the kitchen to make one for you, or can you go to the lobby to rest?" Xiao Tangzi nodded and asked, "Or can I bring you a basin of hot water to wash up?"

"Nothing is needed." Lu Zheng shook his head, took out a few copper coins from his purse and handed them to the boy, "Go down, don't come in without my instructions."

"Yes, yes, thank you, sir!" Xiao Tangzi took the copper coins with a smile, bowed and backed away, and finally closed the door.

…

Eat here? Live here?

Don't be kidding me, even if I go back to eat instant noodles, it's still better than what this inn provides! Wouldn't it be nice to go back and take a hot bath and then sleep comfortably on the brown mattress? And after running around all day, you can also go out to drink beer and have sex.

Lu Zheng put the things beside the bed, then lowered the door bolt of the guest room from the inside, walked to the table, and was about to blow out the oil lamp when he heard a sudden sound of gongs and drums outside.

The tempo is upbeat and the tune is festive.

Lu Zheng was stunned. He was playing this kind of music in the middle of the night. How could a ghost get married? In this inn?

Is it so exciting?

Lu Zheng's eyes lit up, he was no longer sleepy, and he didn't go back. He untied a long baggage with his backhand, revealing a long wooden box.

This is the weapon box he asked Carpenter Li from the county to build. There is a sword in it.

Picking up the wooden box, Lu Zheng opened the door and stepped out.

…

When I came to the fence on the third floor and looked down, I saw that everyone in the lobby had stopped eating and stood up. A few scholars and businessmen retreated timidly, while everyone in the escort office had their swords unsheathed and stood ready.

Lu Zheng's eyes narrowed, and he had already arrived at the door listening to the sound of playing music. "It's strange, it's not ghost Qi. These foreign objects... are mixed with incense smell and Monster Qi. Could it be..."

The music stopped, and a clear voice sounded, "Lushui River Divine Mansion, Prime Minister Luo Wensheng, I have met you all."

With a "squeak" sound, the door of the inn opened. First, two tall men with long spears came in, and then a middle-aged man wearing a green embroidered robe, with a pale complexion, big eyes and thick lips, walked in and bowed towards the inn. , polite and courteous.

"Lushui River Divine Mansion?"

"call--"

"It turned out to be someone from the imperial court. It scared me to death!"

"But what happened when people from the Lushui River Divine Mansion suddenly came ashore? I remember the last time they appeared was during the flood five years ago, right?"

Everyone in the escort office put down their swords one after another, and the scholar and vendor were no longer afraid. Lu Zheng blinked, put down the wooden box he was carrying, and looked at the Prime Minister of Heshenfu in the lobby below with great interest.

"Heshen Mansion is looking for a son-in-law today. My uncle is a scholar in the state government. He lost his parents when he was young. Now that he has entered the Heshen Mansion, the guests are all from the rivers. It is not beautiful. Therefore, I have specially issued an order from the River God Jun to invite guests from the ferry to enter the water mansion. Let’s have a banquet.” Luo Wensheng said with cupped hands.

Is this... a treat?

Is there such a good thing?

And...compared to the banquet, several scholars who looked rather downtrodden had a touch of envy in their eyes.

Lushui River God, although you are getting married, if you marry the daughter of the River God, you will not lack wealth and your life span will be increased. That is inevitable. If you have some skills, it is not impossible to become an official in the court.

Which down-and-out scholar was so lucky that he won the favor of Miss Heshen Mansion? It’s really... enviable!
