Seeking Good Fortune and Avoiding Misfortune: Starting from the Blind Prince

Ministry of Works.

Zhou Haochen sipped his tea unhurriedly, his half-reclined posture resembling that of an old cadre in a government office.

Although the Ministry of Works was busy, its officials dared not entrust heavy tasks to him, the prince.

As a result, Zhou Haochen was idle and bored.

He could only tease Mu Yuanye, the energetic girl, whenever he had the chance.

In the past few days, the number of times the energetic girl blushed exceeded the total of her previous life.

“Your Highness, the latest batch of ancient raw ore has been delivered to the Ministry of Works warehouse.”

“The Sixth Prince and seven or eight young lords will come to mine the ore. Lord Ji wants you to preside over it.”

Ancient raw ore?!

Upon hearing these four words, the words "stone gambling" immediately popped into Zhou Haochen's mind.

Ancient raw ore was the 'stone gambling' of the Great Yu Dynasty.

The gamble was not on jade, but on the various treasures within the ancient raw ore.

Ancient raw ore was mined by the Ministry of Works from ancient battlefields.

Due to the ancient times of the battlefields, scattered relics were wrapped within the ore.

In the Great Yu Dynasty, there was a saying that treasures concealed themselves.

Powerful treasures, scriptures, and inheritances, if lost, would conceal themselves, appearing no different from ordinary objects on the outside.

The ancient raw ore mined from ancient battlefields contained various treasures.

Due to the concealment of treasures, the gambling aspect was extremely high.

If one was lucky, they could unearth a divine forbidden treasure and soar to the sky, becoming an ancestor.

If one was unlucky, they would unearth a pile of mineral slag, or even cursed evil objects.

“The royal family and nobles select them once, and the ancient raw ore they don’t like is then sold to major gambling dens.”

“I see!”

Zhou Haochen had a look of sudden realization on his face.

He didn't expect the ancient raw ore to have such an origin.

After a cup of tea.

The Sixth Prince arrived at the Ministry of Works with a group of young people.

These young people were either the sons of marquises or the nephews of earls, all with extraordinary backgrounds.

“Thirteenth Brother, I heard that you came to the Ministry of Works to observe politics. I didn’t expect you to be presiding over today’s stone gambling conference.” The Sixth Prince greeted him warmly.

“Sixth Brother, as a prince, I naturally have to share my father’s worries.”

“I have had eye problems since I was a child, and I can’t go to the battlefield to investigate major cases. I can only do these small things.”

“Thirteenth Brother, don’t be discouraged. There is always a way out. Your eye disease may have a turning point.”

“Yuanye, serve tea to Sixth Brother.”

The Sixth Prince glanced at Mu Yuanye, who was serving Zhou Haochen, and a look of astonishment immediately appeared on his face.

He seemed to have seen something incredible.

Immediately afterward, the astonishment on his face turned into envy.

“Thirteenth Brother, I really envy you.”

“Sixth Brother, what’s wrong?”

“If I had known that I could be served by a closed disciple of the Mo family's Giant, I would have come to the Ministry of Works to observe politics.”

The Sixth Prince's words caused a wave in Zhou Haochen's heart.

Mu Yuanye is the closed disciple of the Mo family's Giant?

Mo Sihai, the Mo family's Giant, in addition to being the leader of the Mo family, also has another identity—the Minister of Works.

“Yuanye, are you a disciple of Minister Mo?”

“Yes!”

“Then you didn’t say so. Otherwise, I wouldn’t have asked you, a high-ranking disciple of the Minister, to pour tea and water.”

“Your Highness… it’s okay… pouring tea and water is quite easy, anyway… I don’t like cultivation either.” Mu Yuanye playfully stuck out her pink tongue.

The Sixth Prince looked at Mu Yuanye's closeness to Zhou Haochen, and a hint of regret could not help but emerge in his heart.

Mo Sihai's disciple is so innocent and has no scheming at all.

If I had known, I would have chosen to observe politics in the Ministry of Works. Mu Yuanye is so innocent, I would have taken her down long ago and married her as a concubine, and I could still win over Mo Sihai and the Mo family.

The Sixth Prince became more and more annoyed, feeling that he had missed a good opportunity.

Mu Yuanye, this little cabbage, was in vain taken advantage of by Zhou Haochen.

Zhou Haochen has eye problems and cannot seize the heir. What's the use of having the support of the Mo family?

However, the Sixth Prince quickly suppressed the annoyance in his heart.

What is missed is missed!

There is no point in being annoyed anymore.

On the contrary, the Thirteenth Brother, who has hooked up with the Mo family, is worth winning over.

Just as the Sixth Prince was pondering how to win over Zhou Haochen.

The latest novels are first published on Liu Jiu Shu Ba!

Other descendants of nobles also came one after another.

The arrival of one person attracted everyone's attention.

Fang Dongyun!

“Fang Dongyun, he actually came!”

“I heard that last night, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was so angry that his nose was crooked, and there were more than a dozen corpses of palace maids dragged out.”

“Fang Dongyun has completely offended His Royal Highness the Crown Prince. It is unwise.”

“I heard that Fang Dongyun is a concubine's son and is not favored in the Linjiang Marquis Mansion. If it were me, I would be willing to take a gamble, after all, I have embraced the thigh of the Second Prince.”

“There are countless crown princes who have been deposed in our dynasty. His Royal Highness the Crown Prince may not be able to laugh to the end!”

… …

Fang Dongyun's arrival caused a lot of discussion among the people present, and even the Sixth Prince couldn't help but look at Fang Dongyun, the most popular young man in this recent period.

After a cup of tea, this stone gambling conference began.

The Ministry of Works' stone gambling conference has a long history, and Zhou Haochen doesn't need to direct it. He only needs to be able to hold the scene and prevent these descendants of nobles from fighting.

Ji Kongzhao let Zhou Haochen be responsible for the stone gambling conference, which can be regarded as making the best use of people.

Don't look at the young people participating in the stone gambling conference without official positions, but they are all descendants of nobles. Ordinary officials can't hold the scene at all.

On the contrary, Zhou Haochen has a noble status and is the Thirteenth Prince.

These descendants of nobles will more or less give Zhou Haochen face and dare not mess around at will.

The Sixth Prince is an old hand and personally went on the field, skillfully observing the ancient raw ore.

However, the Sixth Prince was not lucky today. He opened ten ancient raw ores in a row, but none of them unearthed valuable treasures.

Suddenly, a clamor sounded, and the Ministry of Works yamen became like a vegetable market for a while.

“It’s out!”

“It’s a spiritual treasure! This coercion is definitely a spiritual treasure!”

“What? Someone unearthed a spiritual treasure?”

… …

A dazzling aura rose up.

It's Fang Dongyun!

Fang Dongyun unearthed a spiritual treasure—a pair of cloud-patterned boots, shimmering with spiritual light, looking quite extraordinary.

The Sixth Prince's face darkened when he saw Fang Dongyun unearthing a spiritual treasure.

“Could it be that Fang Dongyun's luck is really so profound?” The Sixth Prince's tone was full of jealousy.

It's not that he has a bad mentality.

It's just that Fang Dongyun's luck really makes people can't help but be jealous.

First, the Dragon Sparrow Sword inheritance of the former dynasty's great general, and now a spiritual treasure, the luck is so good that it is simply outrageous.

The Sixth Prince returned sullenly and asked.

“Thirteenth Brother, why don’t you try your luck?”

With a buzz.

The Bagua diagram in the sea of consciousness burst out with a golden light.

The Bagua trigrams flew out, combined in pairs, dazzling, and combined into new hexagrams.
