Ancient Buddhist Life

Hu Ziyi was so preoccupied that he stayed up all night, and got up early to send Zhou Yiye away. Butler Zhou's departure was to avoid everyone, but after all, his absence could not be kept secret for long, so Hu Ziyi simply pointed out that Zhou Yiye was sent out by himself to find him. Food ingredients, looking for stable partners for the restaurant that is about to open.

After giving a reasonable explanation, Hu Ziyi didn't bother to care whether other people really believed it or not. What he was struggling with now was whether to go to the appointment.

On the other side, Zheng Dafu, who was more entangled than Hu Ziyi, didn't care about where Zhou Yiye went at all, he just wanted to know whether Hu Ziyi would meet Old General Qi.

With restlessness, Hu Ziyi and Steward Mao met several well-known master carpenters. They discussed how to renovate restaurants and shops, and how to stand out from the crowd of competitors.

Hu Ziyi combined the different quaint decorations that the world had seen before, and he competitively drew many styles that are not found here.

The acceptance of the masters was very high. They were all excited when they saw these styles they had never seen before, and they kept scrambling to communicate with Hu Ziyi. They really liked this young man with ideas.

Hu Ziyi smiled and refused, saying: "It's not that I found it out, it's just picking up people's wisdom. I have seen similar styles, and I just drew them. I can't keep them for myself. Now I also hope that more people can use them." on them."

"Young man, be humble. We were just joking with you, and we didn't really force you to learn carpentry with us." Several old masters thought that Hu Ziyi didn't want to learn the craft, so they made up the excuse deliberately.

Hu Ziyi was helpless and did not continue to explain, "Thanks for your hard work, masters."

The master craftsmen waved their hands, "This is our craftsmanship, there is no hard work, and after five days, your shop will definitely open."

After solving the necessary furnishings, Hu Ziyi went to invite someone to re-whiten several places, and some old supplies were also repainted to give them a whole new look.

After finishing these things, it was already noon, Hu Ziyi who returned to the other courtyard, found Zheng Dafu, and asked him to lead the way to Zuixiang Building.

In the private room on the third floor of Zuixiang Building, Old General Qi and his two personal guards had already been waiting inside. They are now by the window next to the street, and anyone who comes can see them clearly.

Qilu had seen Hu Ziyi before, and he had good eyes. He pointed to the two people who were walking not far away, "General, Mr. Hu and the others are here."

General Qi's anxious mood finally calmed down, and he asked Qi Lu to order food, "It's good if you come, call someone to come in and prepare to serve."

Qi Lu: "Yes, General."

After Qi Lu went out, Qi Bing, another personal guard of General Qi, didn't know who he was, and it was worthy of the general.

"General, that man looks very young, about the same as Young Master Sun, is he reliable?" Qi Bing was very skeptical about such a big matter, whether this young man could survive and live up to the general's high hopes.

Old General Qi smiled and said: "There is no one more suitable than him. You also know about the rumor more than ten years ago. Hu Ziyi is largely that person. He is an anomaly and will break the current deadlock."

Qi Bing remembered that, and whispered: "I hope he is destined."

The voices outside the door were getting closer and closer, and the two people inside remained silent, not mentioning the prophecy buried in everyone's heart.

"Old General Qi, I haven't seen you for a few days, you look pretty good." Hu Ziyi greeted with a smile.

Old General Qi also nodded in a very easy-going way, and said: "Shopkeeper Xiaohu, he just knows how to talk, and this mouth can really coax people. I am very happy to hear it."

Hu Ziyi smiled, and continued, "Boy, you can only eat with this mouth."

After some probing, the two of them started to bring up the real story. Old General Qi also resolved Hu Ziyi's doubts and let him understand why he was so deeply involved.

After Hu Ziyi listened to old general Qi's words, there were many muddy horses galloping in his heart. He really didn't expect that he would be able to come to this world, and there would be so many unknown secrets.

"Old General Qi, I'm afraid that there are other things that I need to do in today's invitation. You might as well say it bluntly, no matter how bad things are, it's nothing more than that." Hu Ziyi couldn't figure out what else General Qi would do if he came here by himself.

Old General Qi stroked his beard, "I want to ask you to cooperate with me in a game. I want to see if my old friend has fallen into a swamp and joined forces."

Hu Ziyi knew that he could not refuse this matter, so he nodded and agreed, "Old General Qi, I can help you, but my younger brothers and sisters are all my weaknesses, and you understand if you think about it, I don't know if you have a safe way, you can Make sure they don't get hurt."

Old General Qi had a plan in mind, and said: "Don't worry about this matter, Hua Ying and his brat have already arranged it. Outside the other courtyard where you live, there are many dead servants and secret guards, protecting the people inside regardless of day and night." people."

Hu Ziyi really didn't expect that Huaying had done so many things, if old general Qi hadn't mentioned it, he would never have been able to find out.

Hu Ziyi: "It seems that I'm worrying too much, but I'm in charge of the bureau, you still wait and see what happens, maybe you can help me at a critical moment."

Old General Qi held up his wine glass and raised his hand, "Have a nice cooperation, Shopkeeper Hu."

Hu Ziyi drank it all in one gulp, "It's a pleasant cooperation."

After everything was settled, the two in the private room chatted about Hu Ziyi's opening, and General Qi even said that he would be there that day to congratulate him personally.

Hu Ziyi left Zuixian Tower a little drunk, and the oncoming breeze made his head sober up a lot.

Zheng Dafu's hanging heart finally fell to the ground after Hu Ziyi walked out of the private room with a smile. He supported Hu Ziyi's arm and asked, "Master, should we go back to the other courtyard directly or take a stroll."

Hu Ziyi rubbed his aching forehead, "Go back, this wine has too much stamina, I have to go back and lie down."

"Okay, young master."

Zheng Dafu found someone to hire a sedan chair, so that Hu Ziyi could relax.

Sitting in the sedan chair, I was drowsy and just a little sleepy when the other courtyard arrived.

Hu Ziyi yawned, went back to his room and drank a pot of strong tea before avoiding people and went to the front yard to look for Butler Mao.

Hu Ziyi picked some things to tell Butler Mao about his meeting with Old General Qi, "Butler Mao, what is the relationship between Huaying and Old General Qi? It's really like what he said, they have a close relationship, and they are an online alliance?"

Steward Mao had been confessed before, so he didn't hide it this time, "The young master and General Qi are old friends, and Mr. Qi is a trustworthy person. You can associate with him at ease, and there will be nothing wrong."

"Thank you, Steward Mao, for clarifying the confusion. I would like to invite some people during the opening. I wonder if there are any taboos?"

Butler Mao's words calmed Hu Ziyi's heart, and he began to plan, thinking of helping Huaying before he returned to Beijing, so that he could return to Beijing earlier.

"Master Hu, those people you want to invite, I can post for you."

"Thank you, Steward Mao."

Butler Mao smiled and said: "No trouble, these are my duties, and you are also a person who does great things. People in other courtyards, you can rest assured that every hair will be indispensable, so you just let go Do what you want to do."

Hu Ziyi's heart felt hot, he knew that it was because of Huaying that he could be so relaxed, he didn't even dare to think, if the person he met was not Huaying, would he walk on the path of the original owner, and he couldn't protect himself. Brothers and sisters lived together, and all died tragically in the end.

Hu Ziyi couldn't help but sighed, and sighed inwardly: You can only succeed and not fail, and you must not let those people who dream of becoming immortals continue to do those disgusting things, ruining so many originally happy families and ruining countless children. .

There are countless words that cannot be uttered, only the word "thank you" can express Hu Ziyi's mood at the moment. After he left from Butler Mao's room, he found Granny Shen, and learned about the Shen family's massacre with her in detail.

Shen Yan's grandfather is the emperor's teacher. As long as he has no major treason, he can protect the prosperity of the family for a generation. Unfortunately, it is ruined by the slander of officials. During the ransacking of the house, several letters between the two were found in the Emperor's Mansion.

After all this happened, Emperor Shen directly committed suicide on the spot and died in the court hall, to show that the Shen family had absolutely no intention of treason.

It's a pity that people left the tea cold, coupled with the constant handing over of papers from caring people, the Holy One severely punished the Shen family, as a warning to others so that they would not commit another crime.

When the Holy Majesty was in a dilemma, he met old General Qi. Afterwards, the Holy Majesty let Shen Yan go on purpose. As for the others, they all died at the gate of the afternoon, and none were left behind.

Granny Shen kept crying. It was only when she fled the capital that she met old General Qi and learned about what had happened to the Shen family. Originally, she wanted to take Shen Yan to live in seclusion, and she didn't want to be bought by Hu Ziyi, so she returned to this sad place. place.

Hu Ziyi got the glass of water and handed it to Granny Shen, "It's all over, do you know that there are people who disagree with Emperor Shen in the court, as an emperor, he should be jealous of many people?"

Granny Shen thought for a while, but she couldn't figure out why, she shook her head, "I'm a woman in a deep courtyard, how could I know about those things outside, but you can find Old General Qi, he must know about it. He and Mrs. Shen are the same The villagers who are officials in the court, they have a good private chat, so the young master can save his life."

Hu Ziyi groped his chin, feeling that there was a shadow of old General Qi behind all these things, so it seemed that he must know a lot of inside stories, so wouldn't he be an old friend he suspected?

Thinking of this, Hu Ziyi suddenly became aroused. People in the capital here really can't look at the surface, otherwise they really don't know how they died.

"Grandma Shen, after you get down from the meeting, tell Shen Yan to study hard, and you must not disappoint the Shen family who sacrificed so many people to send him away. After the capital is stable, I will return the deed of sale to you. When Shen Yan becomes an adult, , I will help him study, and his talent cannot be concealed."

Granny Shen was overwhelmed with surprise, and kept thanking her, "Thank you, Eldest Young Master, I just ask you to give Young Master his freedom. This old bone of Lao Sheng will stay with the Hu family and take care of Miss Fifth before leaving as an adult."

Hu Ziyi thought that there was really no one more suitable than Granny Shen in his family, so he nodded in agreement.

After Granny Shen left Hu Ziyi's room, she found Shen Yan in the backyard, hugged her and cried silently for a long time before she told you that she could continue to study in the future.

After hearing this, Shen Yan was so happy that he couldn't speak. He liked reading very much. He hoped that he could go to the court like his grandfather, and cleanse the Shen family's crimes by himself.
