Legend of Zhen Huan: Rebirth of Zhen Huan

On Qipan Street, people come and go, and it's a mixed crowd. Only in such a place can you find new and rare treasures.

A store that Zhen Yuandao and Guwaljia Emin had often visited before was an ancient book store owned by a boss named Li.

You can always find some good ancient books and classics from him.

Boss Li, who was standing at the door, saw Zhen Yuandao rushing towards him from afar.

When he got closer, Boss Li smiled and bowed, saying:

"Master Zhen, you are here."

Zhen Yuandao also smiled and cupped his hands:

"I came to see if there were any books I liked. You know, I like them best."

Boss Li quickly made way through the door and gestured for Zhen Yuandao to come in: "Master Zhen, please."

After Zhen Yuandao turned around, Boss Li winked at the shop assistant, who nodded at him knowingly, indicating that everything was ready.

Zhen Yuandao, as usual, searched over and over again on the table full of books.

When he sees the title of a book that interests him, he can't help but turn a few pages.

Just then, a book without any title came into his sight.

Zhen Yuandao quickly glanced at Boss Li out of the corner of his eye. Seeing Boss Li's nervous look, Zhen Yuandao had already guessed what was going on.

He flipped through it casually and found that the whole article was filled with words praising Prince Dun.

Zhen Yuandao's heart tightened involuntarily:

Thanks to Huan'er for the reminder!

Otherwise, I might really buy this outrageous book and take it home!

With so many major events happening in the court, the emperor was already wary of Prince Dunqun and his followers...

If I openly collect this book, wouldn't that be a blatant act against the Emperor?

Emin, Emin!

You and I have served in the same court for many years, but I never thought that you would use such a vicious trick to frame me!

In that case, don't blame me for disregarding the loyalty of my colleagues!

Thinking of this, Zhen Yuandao pretended to be uninterested and put the book back on the table.

When Boss Li saw this scene, he couldn't help but feel anxious.

But he can't be too obvious!

So, he pretended to be casual, picked up the book from the table, and said to Zhen Yuandao with a smile:

"Master Zhen, this book is my new treasure."

"I heard that it was written by a very famous person. It would be a pity if Lord Zhen missed it!"

Hearing what Boss Li said, Zhen Yuandao snorted in his heart:

This is what I'm waiting for!

Zhen Yuandao put down the book in his hand, slowly turned around and looked at Boss Li:

"Boss Li, are you sure you recommended this book to me?"

Boss Li was already feeling guilty because he was being ordered around by someone else.

Being asked so seriously by Zhen Yuandao suddenly, he panicked and nodded mechanically.

"presumptuous!"

Zhen Yuandao changed his usual good temper and threw the book in his hand to the ground:

"If you hadn't come here in person today, I wouldn't have believed what others said about you framing me!"

"Boss Li, I have taken good care of your business over the years. I am really disappointed that you are doing this!"

"Master Zhen, I don't have it! I really don't have it!"

Boss Li fell to his knees with a plop.

"Does Boss Li want me to bring that person here before he admits it?"

After all, he was a Confucian scholar, and Boss Li was so frightened that he began to tremble all over.

His eyes kept rolling around in his sockets, as if he was thinking about how to solve the problem.

Lord Emin, you have repeatedly warned me to keep this matter strictly in mind!

I didn't expect that in order to please Lord Zhen, you would change your plan at the last minute and betray me!

Seeing Boss Li wavering, Zhen Yuandao decided to further break his psychological defenses:

"Boss Li, that man pushed you out to take the blame in order to gain my trust, and you even wanted to cover it up for him. I really don't know whether to say you are honest or stupid!"

"You know, if the emperor knew about this, it would be a heinous crime that would result in the execution of all nine generations of your clan!"

Zhen Yuandao was originally a censor, and he knew best how to use words to convince someone!

Sure enough, when Boss Li heard Zhen Yuandao say that the entire nine generations of his clan would be implicated, he was completely frightened!

He hurriedly knelt to Zhen Yuandao's side, pulled his clothes and begged:

"Master Zhen, Master Zhen, for the sake of our acquaintance, I beg you, please, please don't report this to the Emperor."

"Lord Emin told me that if I can help you buy this book, he will reward me with a thousand taels of gold!"

"I have never seen so much silver in my life. I agreed to it because I was greedy!"

After saying this, Boss Li prostrated himself at Zhen Yuandao's feet with tears in his eyes.

"Boss Li, I don't want to embarrass you, but you also know that Lord Emin is following the emperor's order to strictly investigate the rebellious book."

"If he fails to find the person who hid the books within the time limit given by the emperor, I'm afraid it will be difficult for him to report to the emperor!"

"so……"

Boss Li wiped the tears from his eyes, looked at Zhen Yuan and said,

"Lord Emin did this not to target you, Lord Zhen!"

"Instead, they want to use this incident to make you, Master Zhen, friendly with him!"

Zhen Yuandao sighed deeply and nodded helplessly.

After getting a positive answer, Boss Li's face became increasingly angry:

"It turns out that from the beginning to the end, I have been the object of Master Emin's playing!"

"In that case, I don't have to hide it for him anymore!"

As he spoke, Boss Li stood up from the ground and took out a waist badge and a few ingots of gold from the drawer of the compartment:

"This badge was specially left for me by Lord Emin in case something happens and it is convenient for me to find him!"

"This gold is the deposit paid by Lord Emin. He said that after the matter is completed, he will give me the rest!"

Zhen Yuandao took the badge and saw the words "Guaerjia" written on it. He had seen it on Emin before.

In other words, as long as you have this badge, you can enter and leave the Guwaljia Prefecture at will.

The words "Guarjia" are also printed on the gold.

Zhen Yuandao was overjoyed when he saw this. With these, he would not be afraid of E Min's excuses in the future!

"Boss Li, luckily I know about this, otherwise..."

Zhen Yuandao looked at Boss Li seriously and said sternly:

"Otherwise, these things in your hand alone are enough to take your life!"

Boss Li was so frightened that he knelt down again. He bowed his hands and said in a crying voice:

"Master Zhen... Master Zhen, I am just an honest businessman. Apart from this, I have never done anything bad in my life."

"It's just... it's just that this time, I was blinded by money. I hope Master Zhen will find a way to save me! Save me!"
