[Red Chamber] Come for a hexagram?
Chapter 9
Even though Wang Ziteng had scolded him more than once about etiquette, it was obvious that Wang Ren didn't listen to him from the beginning to the end.Confucian restraint on one's own words and deeds is completely unworkable for Wang Ren, and a free and easy life is what he pursues.Therefore, he has no psychological barriers at all for eavesdropping.
The two people by the pool were talking in low voices. Although Wang Renzang was not far away from them, they couldn't hear them clearly.I could only hear a few cryptic words, such as transporting salt, salt lords by the river, and other things like lowering prices.Is this for business?
No, even though he was not very clear about the ancient laws, Wang Ren still understood that selling illegal salt was illegal.
He suddenly remembered the divination for Tian Ruien at that time.It seems that the reason why he chose to marry a son is not just because the "old" girl in his family is not easy to marry, but there are other reasons.
If we talk about private salt, it is actually the collusion between government and businessmen who turn a blind eye to the sale of private salt.only……
Mu Ran thought of Thirteen, who came to fortune-telling that day, and Wang Ren's face turned red with anger.
When he finished thinking about all the messy things in his mind, when he came back to his senses, there was no one in front of him.
When did you leave?
Wang Ren looked around and didn't find half a figure, so he stood up and got out from the grass. His two servants also got out in embarrassment, and immediately stepped forward to help Wang Ren pat the fallen leaves on his body.
"But I haven't seen you for a few days, have you changed from a fortune teller to a master?" A voice with a smile sounded.
When Wang Ren looked back, his eyes widened.Is it surnamed Cao?Is your name Cao Cao?It's just thinking about it in your mind, why did you come here?
"What are you doing here?" Wang Ren asked.
"What to do." Shisan pinched his chin and thought for a while, "Probably has the same purpose as you."
"Come to eat?" Wang Ren took out a paper bag with a pastry, because the movement of squatting down made the pastry a little broken, but Wang Ren opened his mouth and swallowed it without hesitation.
Thirteen, who was frightened by his increasingly rude behavior: ...
If I hadn't inquired about his identity a little bit before coming here, I would have really wondered if this guy was an ordinary fortune teller who sneaked here to eat and drink.
But Shisan thought about it a little bit, Wang Ren's reputation is not good, he is a playboy.Looking at it now, his disobedience to etiquette is too free and easy, in the eyes of those Confucianists, it is indeed as difficult to teach as rotten wood.It's just that Wang Ren's eyes are clear, his behavior is free and easy, although a bit rude but not vulgar, he is not the kind of obscene person that everyone says.
Sure enough, because of prejudice and rumors, the three became tigers.
"I'm not here for dinner." Thirteen shook his head: "I'm here for the wedding banquet."
"I think they are here to investigate the case." Wang Ren hummed softly.
"You really know a lot." Thirteen smiled: "Did you guess it?"
"I figured that out!" Wang Ren crumpled up the paper and handed it to Ban Xia.
"Then you can do the math for me..." Thirteen obviously didn't believe it, and said half-jokingly, before he was interrupted by Wang Ren.
"Ten taels of gold!" Wang Ren said.
Thirteen pouted slightly: "It's really expensive."
"The real material is the price!"
Thirteen turned around and went back, ignoring Wang Ren's words just now.
Wang Ren: I really want to bite him to death!
Seeing Shisan's completely disbelieving appearance made Wang Ren very angry and unwilling.When his master taught him metaphysics, he once said that there is always a kind of person in this world who doesn't believe in metaphysics, and he doesn't need to be serious or entangled or proved to treat such people.Because even if you keep proving the truth of metaphysics in front of them, they will not change their minds.Such people are usually very strong-willed people.But now, Wang Ren has angrily put this teaching behind him, and now he is full of thoughts about that kid's disdainful expression just now!
Quickly stepped forward to catch up with Xiao Shisan, reached out and grabbed the corner of his clothes, staring at him with exquisite eyes.
"Tell me what you are looking for!" Wang Ren asked, "No matter what you want to know, I can help you find the answer!"
"What am I looking for?" Thirteen rolled his eyes, turned his head and said with a smile, "Then just figure out what I'm looking for~"
Wang Ren let go of his hand, trembling all over, and finally couldn't bear it anymore and rushed forward, pinching Shisan's cheek with two paws and pinching fiercely.
He is a mortal, not a god!Even if you can tell fortunes, there is no way to calculate everything in every detail!Besides... Even if he doesn't want to admit it, he hasn't mastered metaphysics yet!
Shisan was taken aback, and stared blankly at Wang Ren's flushed face who was very close to him.From the past to the present, no one has ever touched his face.His brothers wouldn't, those servants and those with lower status didn't dare, and the superior father... was even more impossible.
Especially now that Wang Ren was a little shorter than him, so he would inevitably have half of his body on top of him when he jumped forward. Such an intimate contact made Thirteen a little at a loss.
"Hmph!" Seeing that Shisan's cheeks were flushed, Wang Ren was in a better mood. He let go of his hand and said, "I don't care, I know. It's about private salt, right?"
Thirteen was in a daze, touching his face, it hurt a little.However, when he heard the private salt, he immediately woke up, looked left and right to see if there was no one, and whispered: "Don't talk about it so loudly here. Let's talk about it after the wedding banquet is over."
Hey, wait!Why did he tell this kid about the private salt after the wedding banquet? ?
"Okay! Then it's settled!" It was bound to let Shisan see the power of metaphysics, so Wang Ren waved his little paw and said, "See you later!"
Seeing Wang Ren waving at him, Thirteen reflexively waved:...
Who wants to see you again!
Thirteen resentfully put down his hands, a little aggrieved.
For the first time in my life, I was taken away by a person younger than myself when talking.
So... Shall I tell him?
Although it is about to be resolved, if an accident happens now, all previous efforts will be wasted.
But not to say is to renege.
Alright, it's decided, if you meet him...
Well, until this matter is resolved, don't go out if you have nothing to do.
He just came to take a look when he became interested in this boy because he saw that his behavior was completely different from the serious appearance of the fortune teller that day. How could it develop like this?
On the other side, Wang Ren returned to the banquet, and specially warned the servants around him, warning them not to tell the past, even if the other party was the master and wife.If they asked, they just said they just went to the side to take a break, nothing happened.
"If you dare to speak out, I will say that you insisted on dragging me out to eat, drink and have fun." Wang Ren threatened like this.
Ban Xia & Chang Shan: "...Yes, we understand, Lord."
Sure enough, the boy has no human rights to speak of, Wang Ren thought to himself.
Wait, I forgot to ask the name and address of that hateful kid just now!Forget it, it's okay.He remembered his face, and he was very good at finding people.
Speaking of appearance, that kid has a faint purple aura, is he a prince?
Why?Doesn't that mean you have to go to the Forbidden City to find it?
In addition, if it is really the prince, isn't his behavior of pinching his face just now too rude?Will I be slapped?Won't be slapped!
In fact, Wang Ren didn't need to worry at all.Regarding the pinching of the face, Thirteen was just shocked, but not angry.
Among the many princes, Thirteen is probably the one who gets along the best.
At least for Wang Ren.
