Gu Huai'an was still a little panicked in the face of the unknown situation, but fortunately, they had pretty much both figured out their countermeasures, and at today's meal, the two of them made sure to figure out whether this so-called Heavenly Master was just trying to simply kill people and control those in the city who didn't listen to him, or whether he was simply trying to just make money?
"Lord Liu, how much silver taels does this Heavenly Master charge you for a spell?"
Before the Heavenly Master arrived, they had to get as much information as possible from Liu Yue's mouth before they could decide what they should ask when this Heavenly Master came over later.
Liu Yue raised his head and looked at Gu Huai'an and Shen Qianshan in front of him, "Back to the words of the two lords, this celestial master only needs to charge 5,000 taels of silver for one practice."
5,000 taels, and you're still only charging 5,000 taels?
Is it possible that this Lord Liu really thinks that 5,000 taels of silver is a small amount for them?
Although Zhenzhou City was a place where incoming and outgoing merchants would reside, but after all, it was just a small town, five thousand taels of silver definitely exceeded his salary for three years, where did he get such a large amount of money?
Even if they had brought only a few tens of thousands of taels of silver for this relief effort, ah!
"Since the words have already been spoken, then I would like to ask, Lord Liu's salary should only be a few hundred taels a year, so who pays for the extra money?"
"Back to your lordship's words, usually this is from the merchants in the city, they have more free money in their hands from doing business, and they are all for the sake of the people in the city, so most of them are willing to take out their own silver to help everyone beg for rain."
"Mostly? That means there must still be quite a few merchants who don't agree with this, right?"
Liu Yue s face changed slightly, "This ... is also true, but those people, how can I say it, they will be punished by the gods of heaven, sooner or later, they will have to take it out, why give up their lives for those silver."
"What does that mean?"
"They always died violently in their homes not long after rejecting my advice, and the Heavenly Master told my humble servant that it was all because they didn't listen to the Heavenly Master that they ended up like that, it's all the will of Heaven, ah, and there's no way for us to intervene."
"Is that so? In that case, then this angel is really divine, how can he still be short of money, it really makes me a bit puzzled, and whether they died violently at home due to illness, or because of what mistakes they made, they were put inside the prison by Lord Liu ah?"
Gu Huai'an can have not been, forget, at that time they led out of that person, but the mouth said to himself, that day they saw that the murdered girl, is the daughter of a herbal store in the middle of the city of Zhenzhou, is because of the boss of that herbal store, do not believe in such behavior of seeking rain, so it will be imprisoned in the prison, said this Lord Liu and that the heavenly master has no relationship, he is absolutely not believe it.
Shen Qianshan found that Gu Huai'an's words were not right, fearing that he had aroused this Lord Liu's suspicion, he hurriedly opened his mouth, "Lord Gu just casually said so, Lord Liu must not take it to heart."
"Haha, it's not even possible to say, after all, begging for rain is a big deal, maybe the Heavenly Master just felt that their hearts weren't sincere and reported these things to the Heavenly God, that's why they ended up like this, don't you think so, my lord?"
Shen Qianshan mouth hooked a cold smile, but in his heart, he kept cursing this county official, at least it is a parent official, seeing that he is under the jurisdiction of the place, in this place there are so many people's lives happen, but even with those heavenly masters and complicit in the plot to kill people, it is like a joke.
"What Lord Liu said is naturally right, after all, for the sake of the people's affairs, all of them are great events, the sacrifice of a small number of people is definitely necessary, then I would like to also ask, this matter from beginning to end, how much silver did Lord Liu shell out? There are two of us also want to ask the Heavenly Master to do us a favor, so I also hope that Lord Liu can reveal us a bit, this Heavenly Master from what sect, we also have a good idea in mind."
"Two adults, this is making it difficult for the subordinate, this matter is really unknown to the subordinate, but after all, it's a celestial master, naturally all of them have their own sects, or else I wouldn't have found him, don't you think so?"
“那看来这个天师还真是神通广大,真的有能和神鬼/交谈的能力,看来我们今天晚上见到他的时候,可得向他好好的讨教一番。”
After Court Lady Gu packed up her things, she asked Huang Hao to help herself and Gu Huai'an pass on a message, saying that there were important matters that needed to be dealt with in the middle of the capital, so they'd go back to the capital first, and told them to take care of themselves.
Huang Hao Hao thought it was a bit strange, this Gu Huai'an really wasn't an ordinary person, even the guards around him were so temperamental, coming and going when they said they would.
This celestial master is really mysterious as hell, even when sitting down to eat together, he must wear his own mask and strictly follow the rule of eating without speaking, no matter how Gu Huai'an and Shen Qianshan both ask him he simply replies.
"I've heard that the Heavenly Master is a man of great power, just by doing a few spells, the drought in Zhenzhou and a few surrounding towns was alleviated, it's really powerful." Gu Huai'an responded with a fake smile, but the person across from him seemed to have a disdainful face.
"Lord Liu, you haven't introduced me to these two friends of yours, what exactly are their origins."
"Oh oh oh, look at this brain of mine I've forgotten, Tian is unaware that these two are from the capital, this is the Minister of Rites, Mr. Gu, this time it's for the purpose of transporting disaster relief gold."
"Oh, so is the Ministry of Rites of the Minister of the Lord, in my really rude it, but is not just to come to the disaster relief well, how only two adults came? Did not bring the team escorting the disaster relief silver?"
This so-called heavenly master, as soon as he heard that the two of them are escorting the disaster relief silver to come, the eyes are straight, Shen Qianshan see such a person can see a lot of people, looking at him this look also know, he must be just have some means of jianghu liar only, but in turn, for no reason to harm so many people's lives.
"I'm afraid that the celestial master does not know, the two of us, this is also for the consideration of Lord Liu, now the Zhenzhou where there is half a bit of the appearance of a disaster? The people are also living in peace and happiness, and have not seen any drought, if we do not report truthfully, then escort the disaster relief silver adults, can be in the eyes of the eyes, if this thing back to report to the emperor, Lord Liu can be deceiving the emperor."
"This this this, what should we do? The two adults should also be able to understand, the next official is also for the sake of the local people, so will do these things, now the people's life back to normal, should be rewarded, should not be punished, but the emperor if you feel that the next official lied about the drought, I'm afraid that it is really going to be punished ..."
"Things are not without any solution, only to ask this celestial master to temporarily collect his magic power, in the first few days before the arrival of the disaster relief silver, but also ask the celestial master not to open the altar to do magic, if it is discovered by those two adults, the two of us on this side is not good to explain."
"That is to say, as long as we don't do the puja in the next few days, it's fine to temporarily put off the recently arranged mages for a while, and it's not too late for us to do the puja after it's being won, is it?"
"Lord Liu is really smart, he understood Lord Gu's meaning at once, if Lord Song found out that you didn't have any abnormalities here, he definitely won't hand over the Disaster Relief Silver to you guys, so in weighing the pros and cons, it's still up to you guys to consider it yourselves."
Now Gu Huai'an and Shen Qianshan two people, for a moment can not think of any other good way, can prevent them from continuing to kill and sacrifice to the sky, after all, the strong dragon does not suppress the snake, and now it is in their territory, what can not be done then, can only be used in this way to slow down the army.
This day is after hearing this, in turn anxious, "Let me the day before yesterday have done the law, the rain is about to come over, now let him retreat also can not retreat ah!"
"Heavenly Master is not misunderstanding the meaning of the two of us? What the two of us mean is that as long as you don't look at the practice, how this rain came to be is purely the will of heaven, we all see through it and don't say anything, but if you continue to do the practice, and are escorted being inside, and those two lords know about it, I'm afraid that things won't be so simple."
After hearing Gu Huai'an's words, this fake celestial master put down his heart, it seems that what he did during this period of time, and did not have any serious consequences, even the two big officials from the capital city, did not express any dissatisfaction with his behavior, but also very praised, he also directly agreed to not open the altar to practice for the time being.
Liu Yue to Shen Qianshan and Gu Huai'an two people arranged to rest in the post house, heard the news of the disaster relief silver immediately both to come, Liu Yue also looked very excited, Gu Huai'an do not believe that this matter and Liu Yue has absolutely no relationship, this time only just arrived at the post house, just sit together to discuss up.
"Your Highness, then what should we do now? When the two of us left, that fake Heavenly Master hadn't even left yet." Gu Huai'an stretched his muscles and bones, today he had intentionally or unintentionally tried to find out, this fake Heavenly Master and Liu Yue, both of them, surprisingly, did not know martial arts, which made it convenient for the two of them to go snooping around.
Shen Qianshan looked at the sky outside, "Huai'an, can you read the sky?"
Gu Huai'an was suddenly asked this question, headless, turned his head to look at Shen Qianshan, "As for me, I can do medicine, I can do martial arts, if you ask me about these things, I really don't know how to do it, but I can make up a couple of sentences about the Qiankun Bagua, if you want to listen to it, I can tell you about it."
"Forget it, I'm not interested, I once saw in a book before, I heard that when the sky appeared to fall cirrus clouds, the weather, there will be rainy weather, and I do not know whether this is said to be true or false ..."
