Seeking Good Fortune and Avoiding Misfortune: Starting from the Blind Prince
#18 - Wanbao Spirit
Thunder Beast Horn?!
The Thunder Beast Horn he had been longing for actually appeared before his eyes?
Zhou Hao Chen really hadn't imagined that the sixth-grade opportunity in the divination was actually referring to the Thunder Beast Horn.
This wooden sculpture was old, and the surface had a layer of patina, so the people in the Department of Internal Affairs didn't realize that the material of the wooden sculpture was the Thunder Beast Horn and treated it as waste.
Zhou Hao Chen couldn't help but glance at the little eunuch, Xiao Linzi.
This little eunuch had extraordinary luck!
"You're called Xiao Linzi, right? I'll take this wooden sculpture."
"Hua Yuan, wrap up the wooden sculpture."
Xiao Dengzi panicked when he saw Zhou Hao Chen accept the wooden sculpture.
Now, it wasn't just a question of who the wooden sculpture belonged to, but Xiao Linzi was planning to latch onto the thirteenth prince's coattails. If he succeeded, his own end would be miserable.
He absolutely couldn't let Xiao Linzi succeed.
A ruthless look flashed in Xiao Dengzi's eyes, and he kowtowed heavily to Zhou Hao Chen.
"Your Highness, don't be deceived by Xiao Linzi."
"Xiao Linzi has more than just one wooden sculpture, but ten. Please, Your Highness, be discerning!"
"Xiao Dengzi, you're spouting nonsense?! Where did I get ten wooden sculptures?"
"I only have this one!"
Xiao Linzi immediately panicked, as anxious as an ant on a hot pot, feeling like he was sitting on pins and needles.
What if the thirteenth prince believed Xiao Dengzi's lies and demanded ten wooden sculptures from him?
Even if he was skinned alive, he couldn't produce a second wooden sculpture!
Thunder Beast Horn?
Could there be ten?
Zhou Hao Chen chuckled in his heart.
Could it be that Xiao Linzi's family ran a Thunder Beast farm?
This Xiao Dengzi dares to fool even me, he's really audacious!
Seeing that Zhou Hao Chen didn't seem to believe him, Xiao Dengzi continued, "Your Highness, what this servant says is absolutely true. As long as you lock Xiao Linzi in prison…"
"Shut up!"
"You dog slave, how dare you deceive even me?"
"Go to the Court of Cautious Punishment and each receive thirty strokes!"
"If there's even one stroke missing, when the Empress Dowager comes out of seclusion, I'll have a good talk with her."
Thirty strokes?
The three of Xiao Dengzi felt a darkness before their eyes, and their lives were filled with gloom.
"Thank you, Your Highness, for upholding justice for this servant."
"If Your Highness has any orders, this servant will go through fire and water without even frowning."
Bang—
Bang—
Bang—
Xiao Linzi's forehead banged loudly on the ground.
"Xiao Linzi, get up and speak."
The material of the wooden sculpture was the Thunder Beast Horn. If it weren't for the divination's hint, Zhou Hao Chen would have almost been fooled.
How could a little eunuch like Xiao Linzi discover that the wooden sculpture was a treasure?
"Your Highness, the reason is a bit bizarre. You probably won't believe it if I say it…"
"It doesn't matter, speak!"
"Your Highness, this servant has had a strange talent since childhood. He has a special sense for some things."
"This servant has a special connection with this wooden sculpture, and it's the strongest connection this servant has encountered in more than ten years."
A unique sense for treasures?!
Could it be?
Zhou Hao Chen recalled the various physiques in the cultivation world, and a very powerful physique appeared in his mind.
The Myriad Treasure Spirit Body!
So that's how it is!
Xiao Linzi actually possessed the Myriad Treasure Spirit Body.
People with the Myriad Treasure Spirit Body have a sense for treasures. The more precious the treasure, the stronger the sense. Therefore, the Myriad Treasure Spirit Body is also known as a human-shaped treasure-seeking mouse.
Only now did Zhou Hao Chen finally understand all the details in the divination.
It turned out that the fourth-grade expandable opportunity in the supreme divination was referring to Xiao Linzi, who possessed the Myriad Treasure Spirit Body.
Although Xiao Linzi's strength was ordinary, he possessed the Myriad Treasure Spirit Body, so he could be considered a fourth-grade opportunity.
However, as Xiao Linzi's strength increased, the grade of this opportunity could also be increased.
Therefore, it was an expandable opportunity!
"If I hadn't chosen to uphold justice today, I would have missed out on this talent, Xiao Linzi."
"Upholding justice not only got me the Thunder Beast Horn but also gained me a talent."
Zhou Hao Chen felt very happy and refreshed.
Xiao Linzi's future was limitless, and he would definitely become a generation of strongmen.
His birth mother was just an ordinary person without any cultivation, so if Xiao Linzi was around to serve her, she could avoid being bullied.
"Xiao Linzi, from now on, you will go to the Jingqi Zhai to serve Consort Yun."
"Thank you, Your Highness, for the guidance."
Xiao Linzi was overjoyed, wishing he could cut out his heart and offer it to Zhou Hao Chen.
There were tens of thousands of eunuchs in the palace, and the easiest job was naturally serving the imperial concubines.
A master like Consort Yun, who was low-key, had a good reputation, and wouldn't torture eunuchs, was hard to find even with a lantern.
… …
At noon, Zhou Hao Chen had lunch at Jingqi Zhai.
He casually mentioned Xiao Linzi to Consort Yun. Consort Yun didn't ask much and let Xiao Linzi work in Jingqi Zhai.
After enjoying lunch, Zhou Hao Chen and Qin Qiulan left the palace and returned to the palace.
"Aunt Lan, are you feeling unwell?" Zhou Hao Chen asked with concern.
From the beginning of lunch, Qin Qiulan had been silent and absent-minded, unlike her usual self, which made Zhou Hao Chen confused.
"Ah—no, no!"
"Thank you, Your Highness, for your concern!"
"Aunt Lan, if you're feeling unwell, I'll ask the imperial physician to take a look."
"No need… I… I'm fine…"
"Really fine?"
"Really!"

Qin Qiulan's eyes flickered, and she turned her head away, her pretty face flushed red, like peach blossoms in February.
She knew that Your Highness had eye problems and couldn't see her appearance at this time.
But she still felt extremely shy and turned to look out the window.
Qin Qiulan didn't know that her shy appearance had all fallen into Zhou Hao Chen's eyes.
"Aunt Lan actually has this girlish side too?"
"What exactly did the birth mother say to Aunt Lan?"
Zhou Hao Chen was a little curious.
… …
Three days later.
Laifu Restaurant.
A storyteller stood on the stage, holding a folding fan. A group of restaurant customers surrounded the stage, and the atmosphere was lively.
"Last time, I talked about Minister Song teasing Chief Yu three times. Today, I will talk about another strange thing about Minister Song."
"Minister Song chased down a murderer for thousands of miles and captured a White Lotus demon person on a stormy night…"
The storyteller spoke with cadence and enthusiasm.
Zhou Hao Chen listened for a moment and nodded slightly.
In the eyes of him, an old failure in online novels, the rhythm of the storyteller was very good.
The atmosphere was well-set, and the refreshing feeling of pretending to be a force and slapping faces was also expressed.
If he transmigrated to Blue Star, he would definitely be another old failure in online novels.
The story told by the storyteller was quite refreshing, but the content was mostly false, with only one part being true, so it could only be listened to as entertainment.
What Minister Song teased Chief Yu three times was purely an exaggeration.
Minister of Justice Song Heng and Chief Yu Shenxing of the Town Evil Division were indeed competing for the case of the White Lotus Sect, but it was definitely not as exaggerated as three teases.
As for chasing down a murderer for thousands of miles, it was even more of an imagination.
As far as Zhou Hao Chen knew, Song Heng had never left Yujing City at all.
The White Lotus Sect's demon people were all captured by the subordinates of the Ministry of Justice.
"Old He, when did the opera about Minister Song start circulating?"
"Just these few days?"
"Why, kid, do you also admire Minister Song? These days, Minister Song's reputation among the people has increased a lot."
"It's nothing, I'm just curious."
"Minister Song didn't seem to be so high-profile before!"
Zhou Hao Chen said thoughtfully, and then changed the subject.
"Old He, I have something to do these days, so I won't come to drink with you for the time being."
"Drink these two jars of Zhuyeqing slowly."
"Got it! Got it!"
"You kid said last time that you were going to participate in the family sacrifice, and there were a lot of trivial matters. I'm still happy being a lonely person like me."
After leaving Laifu Restaurant, Zhou Hao Chen instructed Qin Qiulan.
"Aunt Lan, go and check how many storytellers in the restaurants are telling stories related to Minister Song."
An hour later.
The results of the investigation came out.
Almost all the storytellers in the restaurants in the entire Yujing City were telling about Minister Song's capture of the White Lotus Sect's demon people.
Zhou Hao Chen frowned.
"Your Highness, is there something wrong?" Qin Qiulan asked.
"The Grand Secretary of the Cabinet is old and preparing to resign and return to his hometown. There is a vacancy in the Cabinet." Zhou Hao Chen said in a low voice.
Qin Qiulan immediately reacted.
"Your Highness, are you saying that Minister Song is aiming for the position of the Grand Secretary?"
"That's right!"
"But the Ministry of Justice's ranking in the Six Ministries is not high!"
"Even if there is a vacancy for the Grand Secretary, it must be the Minister of Personnel, the Minister of Revenue, and the Minister of Rites who have a better chance. It's impossible for it to be the Minister of Justice."
"Under normal circumstances, that's true."
"But what if Minister Song happens to make a great contribution? And also has a good reputation?"
"These storytellers in the city are all creating momentum for Minister Song!"
After Zhou Hao Chen finished speaking, he suddenly thought that Minister Song had a close relationship with his second brother.
He didn't know if his eldest brother had noticed his second brother's little actions.
