Chapter 297 Secret Room and Secret Way

In the bright spring, the carriage had been around for several miles, and Princess Huaizhen, who was sitting inside, suddenly realized that something was wrong with her.
For example, today, there is actually nothing big about it. If someone sends a letter, you can explain things clearly. There is no need to go there in person.
But she got on the carriage without thinking too much and wanted to go to Mingyue Pavilion.
Do you want to talk about things or to see Gu Shiwu?
Princess Huaizhen asked herself three times in her heart, and the answer she got was to talk about things.
But after a breath, she felt a little deceiving herself.
No girl doesn't miss spring.
A few years ago, she had thought seriously about if she entrusts her life to life, then she would have to find a good husband, and what kind of man would really suit her.
First of all, this man should worry about the country and the people, seek profit for the people, and have lofty ambitions.
Secondly, he must be smart enough to have a clever vision, not to attract the power or to be merciless.
He must have one aspect of his cultivation or literary talent that is outstanding in the entire Tang Dynasty.
When he appears, he really wants to be as dazzling as the bright moon, but not dazzling, making people feel comfortable to look at.
What kind of family background, appearance, height, shortness, fatness, and thinness, she doesn't think she cares, she thinks that meeting those conditions is enough.
It's not difficult to meet those conditions.
At least she thought so at first.
But after she had really come into contact with the young talents who came to Chang'an, she felt more and more disappointed.
Many people would make her feel a little surprised at first, but after observing it for a while, she would find that there were always many places where these people were too far away from her expectations.
Some people just want to please her deliberately, or just want to please her power. Even if her writing is shocking and her literary talent is rare in the world, the poems she wrote cannot satisfy her at all.
Some young people are proud, but their knowledge is shallow, and they can't see each other at all.
Many times when she reminds these smart people with one word, she can't help but think that if she wants to stay with these people for the rest of her life, she will often be like teaching students.
But at the moment, Gu Shiwu seemed to satisfy all her fantasies.
But that night he refused.
Can I still be able to please him in a low voice?
What's more, there are two ladies from the Pei family and Shangguan Zhaoyi around him. If you force yourself to come over, you'd be crazy.
While he was thinking about it, there was a loud bang, and a big hole was suddenly knocked open by a courtyard wall, and a man seemed to have emerged from the smoke and dust.
Although the courtyard wall was dozens of steps away from Princess Huaizhen's carriage, it was on the street after all, and the princess's body was so precious. The moment the loud sound came, the driver's hand was pressed on the hilt of the sword at his waist. Four practitioners on both sides had already rushed over and guarded the four corners of the carriage.
"Sorry, everyone."
But at this time, someone was already greeting the streets loudly. The man smiled and explained repeatedly, "This courtyard wall was originally going to be redone. It happened that someone had set up a gambling game to bet on whether this person's shoulders could break through the wall. I don't want to really break through, which disturbs you. I'm really embarrassed. When the smoke and dust dissipate, I'll bring you some tea later."
"Is someone betting that I can use my shoulder to break through the courtyard wall?"
The driver was stunned. He looked at the place where the man was standing with a smile and said, and suddenly realized that it was the famous Huaiyuan Hanhai Gambling House in Chang'an City.
It is said to be a gambling shop, but half of it is considered an underground private arena. Many of them are betting on which side of the fight can win.
However, unlike the fact that the Youzhou Yongning Xiushu Institute actually carries out the gambling house under the name of the Xiushu Institute, Hanhai Gambling has taken the opposite path, which is indeed a gambling house that is gambling in dice, but they often secretly arrange for someone to fight near the casino and then ask the gamblers to place bets.
The driver who drove Princess Huaizhen suddenly figured it out. When he looked at the courtyard wall next to the gambling house, he took a breath and felt his shoulders hurt.
The courtyard wall is thick.
He felt that he would definitely not be able to hit a big hole.
What's more, the man actually broke through the wall and ran out directly.
This person has the ability!
Strong shoulders!
He became interested in an instant and looked at the man carefully.
"This young man is growing beautifully!"
The coachman looked closely and found that he was a handsome guy, and he was the kind of guy who was driving around in a carriage, and he couldn't see the second one who could be more handsome than him.
He only thought that the young man was pretty and didn't know who this man was, but Princess Huaizhen opened the curtains and looked at him, and she couldn't help but be slightly stunned.
Isn’t this person the genius swordsman Wang Ruoxu of Lizheng Sword Academy?
She frowned and looked at her for a few times, sure that she had not recognized the wrong person.
She felt that this most beautiful boy in Luoyang was really crazy. He didn't practice swords well and ran here to hit the wall.
And he was obviously grinning in pain, but he was filled with joy.
Wang Ruoxu was indeed very happy at this time.
After staying with Gu Shiwu in Mingyue Pavilion for a long time, Wang Ruoxu's view on money is completely different from before.
He actually didn't understand why Gu Shiwu was actually very rich, but he seemed to want to get some money from others just by meeting them.
Later, he saw many places where money was spent, especially after spending time with students like Youzhou, he found that these students like Youzhou were really poor, and it was really hard for them to make money.
The more he saw those people’s frugality and knew how poor the families were, the more he felt that he had committed a sin in spending money in the past.
The more he wants to make more money to help those who are the same as them.
Although he hit the wall this time it was indeed painful and probably had a broken bone again, he was really happy.
The carriage continued to move towards Yankangfang.
Huaiyuanfang was Yankangfang. It was enough to have such a crazy thing as Wang Ruoxu in broad daylight, but what Princess Huaizhen didn't expect was that she walked a few more streets and alleys, and could see the gate of Yankangfang, but the carriage was blocked again.
There was a large circle of people surrounding the avenue.
The carriage driver originally thought that someone was playing monkey plays or making tricks.
When is this? It’s not the New Year’s Day? Anyone who dares to block such a domineering path without opening his eyes?
The carriageman stood up unhappily, but when he stood on the front of the car and looked into the circle, he was stunned.
The boy didn't know the person just now, but he knew him in the circle.
Bai Yousi?
He was a little unbelievable in his eyes.
But that person who was dressed in rags and looked obviously a lunatic, who wasn't Bai Yousi?
He stared blankly at Bai Yousi who was surrounded by many people, and heard Bai Yousi's laughter constantly coming from the noisy crowd, "Look, the Tongtian Tree is blooming. The Tongtian Tree is blooming."
There are not many madmen in Chang'an City, but there are always one or two in some markets.
Even if there are crazy people outside, there will never be so many people watching.
But this lunatic is a little different.
He held a branch and a bar of iron in his hand.
He smiled crazy, but someone in the crowd kept making excuses, "Where did the Tongtian tree bloom? No. I didn't see the iron flowers blooming."
After shouting like this several times, Bai Yousi started crying again and said, "It's really blooming, haven't you seen it?"
After crying for a few words, he suddenly whipped the iron bars hard with the branches in his hand.
There was a swish, followed by a crisp sound.
The branch whipped on the iron bar and actually emitted a dazzling spark.
There was a burst of exclamation and cheers in the crowd.
Hearing the cheers, Bai Yousi was crying and crying suddenly became stunned. He seemed to remember this sound. Suddenly, his eyes were confused again, and then he laughed proudly, saying, "Look, the Tongtian Tree is blooming, the Tongtian Tree is blooming."
"One more!"
The onlookers really regarded him as a trick, and some even threw meat buns and copper coins.
But these dialogues seem to be useless at all. However, those who made fun of the previous ones grasped the rules and urged again, "How can you bloom? I didn't see the iron flowers blooming in the sky tree."
Bai Yousi started crying again, "It's really blooming... It's blooming, why can't you see it..."
The carriage driver was filled with emotion.
Bai Yousi has controlled the Canglang Sword Sect for many years, and the Canglang Sword Sect has obeyed his orders and has an astonishing number of sword masters. Canglang Sword Sect is powerful, so he is also an important figure in Chang'an and Luoyang. However, who would have thought that after the battle of Qujiang, the reputation accumulated by the Canglang Sword Sect was destroyed, and Bai Yousi went crazy and left the streets.
He felt in his heart, and forgot to report what happened in front of Princess Huaizhen in the carriage behind him. It was not until Princess Huaizhen's inquiry sounded that he realized, and replied with a strange expression, "It was Bai Yousi... Bai Yousi of Canglang Sword Sect was crazy, and many people were playing around him, blocking the road."
A feeling of incredibility surged in Princess Huaizhen's heart.
She hesitated for a moment, got up and walked out of the car.
It happened that the officials were already dispersing the crowd at this time, so it was naturally not good to block the main traffic road.
As the crowd dispersed, she saw the stupid Bai Yousi.
At this time, several officials arrived in front of Bai Yousi but suddenly did not dare to come forward to touch him.
No matter Bai Yousi's identity, Bai Yousi was holding a branch and an iron bar in his hand at this time, which naturally gave them a strong sense of oppression.
But Bai Yousi seemed to have not noticed their existence at all. He cried foolishly for a few words, and suddenly saw Princess Huaizhen.
He suddenly stopped crying and suddenly laughed again.
"Beauty, great beauty!"
He suddenly walked towards Princess Huaizhen.
The officials shouted repeatedly, but they couldn't get close to him at all. One of them had already made up his mind and reached out to pull him, but his hand was still two feet away from him, and he was already bounced away by the true energy on his body.
Princess Huaizhen looked at Bai Yousi who was indeed crazy and felt a little sympathy just now. As she looked at Bai Yousi looking at her lustful appearance, her face suddenly became gloomy.
"Beauty, really a great beauty!"
"It's so serious, so serious, I like it the most!"
"beauty…"
Bai Yousi liked Huaizhen the more he looked at her. While shouting happily, he threw away the iron bars and took them into his clothes.
A fierce murderous intent suddenly appeared in Young Master Huaizhen's eyes.
As long as Bai Yousi dares to do anything injurious on the street, she will immediately order him to be killed.
But Bai Yousi seemed to be lucky. He didn't do anything too much. He just scratched it like a itch. He suddenly found that there was no iron bar in his hand. He shouted at the sky and said, "Why isn't it blooming yet? Why doesn't the Tongtian Tree bloom yet?"
While crying, he seemed to have identified Qujiang's direction again and began to jump and run towards the other side.
Whether it was the driver on the front of the carriage or the practitioners who were ready to go around the carriage, they immediately breathed a sigh of relief when they looked at Bai Yousi's crazy back.
Although Bai Yousi was already crazy and did not have any powerful swords in his hand, he was a seventh-grade peak. Sometimes his intuitive reaction was very strong when facing life and death threats. They could certainly kill Bai Yousi, but they didn't know that Bai Yousi would drag a few people to the road when he fought back to death.
In the current situation, as long as Bai Yousi is not stuck here, he will go crazy somewhere else and ignore their affairs.
Princess Huaizhen took a deep breath, and her face was still covered with frost, but the murderous intent in her eyes faded away little by little.
She walked back to the carriage, and when the carriage entered Yankangfang, she calmed down and ordered with a slightly cold voice, "After all, it is a member of the Canglang Sword Sect. How can it be in a state of madness on the street like this? Let the Canglang Sword Sect take the people back."
The coachman immediately responded.
He and Bai Yousi were not familiar with each other, and had no special relationship, but he was still a little happy at this time.
After all, they are all practitioners who are seeking life in Chang'an and Luoyang. Looking at Bai Yousi, they feel a little sad about the death of a rabbit and the fox.
Bai Yousi was so crazy, although the reputation that Canglang Sword Sect had finally accumulated was destroyed in his hands, but the more reason was that Princess Huaizhen and other powerful people were afraid of him.
The people of Canglang Sword Sect dare not care about Bai Yousi because of this relationship.
When Princess Huaizhen opened her mouth, at least even if she expressed her opinion that she would not pursue him, then Bai Yousi would at least have a good end.
Princess Huaizhen suddenly thought of something again. She patted the wall of the car and said seriously, "Gu Shiwu and Canglang Sword Sect are so irritating because of Guo Beixi. He seems to have always wanted to figure out what happened to Guo Beixi and Canglang Sword Sect, but he and Canglang Sword Sect are now becoming mortal enemies. It is probably not easy for him to contact Canglang Sword Sect during this period. I didn't expect this... Please check it out, what happened to Guo Beixi in Canglang Sword Sect back then, and what happened to have left the gate."
Although the carriage driver was her confidant, he didn't know what the relationship between her and Gu Shiwu and others was. He certainly agreed seriously after hearing Princess Huaizhen's instructions, but he was muttering in his heart, feeling that his master was too enthusiastic about the green eyes.
The princess is here.
When Princess Huaizhen's carriage drove into Mingyue Train, Chen Tu, holding a teapot, was talking to a neighbor at the door of her shop.
This neighbor is one of the top wealthy businessmen in Qunxianfang, and they run a lot of succulent businesses.
They are all neighbors, so they are polite. Moreover, this person is also from a small business. Although the business is big now, they don’t feel condescending when talking to a shop owner like Chen Tu. Instead, they have a low posture and don’t bring any followers. They dress in ordinary clothes. They also carry a small teapot and talk to Chen Tu. They don’t call him Boss Chen, but they call him Chen Geer.
After asking Chen Tu how his current business is and whether he has any plans to open a branch recently, the wealthy businessman named Zhang said seriously, "Brother Chen, I really have something to do recently. A master from a slaughterhouse recently died of illness. The young people under him couldn't even hold back when they met a stronger pig. Chen Ge'er, you are really good at killing pigs during the New Year. Can you go over and help when you have time? You don't have to go there often. You just go over and take care of big things when they can't handle them, and then teach them a few tricks. Brother Chen, please help me through this difficulty, and I will definitely not let you suffer."
After saying that, he looked at Chen Tu and was obviously a little stunned. He smiled again and said, "Brother Chen, you have a good business here. If you don't have enough staff, I can also send two people to help you."
Chen Tu actually didn't think about this.
He was stunned at this moment and was just thinking, is this damn Gu Shiwu's mouth poisonous?
I said that when I came to Chang'an, I could only be a pig slaughter. Now I have opened a shop so prosperously, but in the end I still have to kill pigs?
They are all neighbors.
If you come here so sincerely to ask for help, you will definitely help.
Chen Tu sighed in his heart and agreed with a smile, "Help help for the time being, and he said that he would suffer losses or not. He was his own family. He would be dissatisfied when he said this. When he wanted to ask me for help, he would just come over and take me there."
"Then I know it!" The rich businessman named Zhang was overjoyed. He felt that Chen Tu should help him. Although this man was a foreign businessman, he was really kind-hearted and responsible.
He thanked him seriously. After leaving happily, Chen Tu looked at his back, but he wanted to slap himself in the mouth. He felt that he was crazy, so he inexplicably agreed to help others kill pigs.
Princess Huaizhen entered the Mingyue Pavilion and sat down face to face with Gu Liubai. She did not show her meritorious service, and did not say that she had taken the initiative to help Gu Liubai check the past about Guo Beixi. She just talked about the two business matters that Gu Liubai had previously told.
"These two businesses are already a little bit brighter, and it is easier to promote than imagined. I think you know why. When I came into Mingyue Pavilion, I saw that the gifts in the hall were piled up like those in the hills. You are now in Chang'an City, and you are also a newcomer. I see that eight of the ten officials are coming to curry favor with you." Princess Huaizhen looked at Gu Liubai with a profound look and advised seriously, "But my father will not like officials to do this, so even if you accept gifts, you should be as low-key as possible."
Gu Liubai said calmly, "I naturally know that this Mingyue Pavilion actually has no threshold for Princess Huaizhen, but it still has a threshold for most people in the city, and ordinary people cannot enter."
Princess Huaizhen was relieved and said, "Although these two businesses were easier to promote than imagined, eight of the ten officials agreed to let you do such a thing, they just got stuck on one person."
Gu Liubai frowned slightly and said, "Who is the old monster Cui, or Changsun Wuji?"
Princess Huaizhen shook her head and said, "None of them are, they are just a sixth-rank official and have no background."
