Since Xiao Feng dared to brag, he knew that there would definitely be this level. He ignored Yan Song at all, but looked at Jiajing: "So, did senior brother give the calligraphy himself, or did he let others test it?"
Yan Song knew that this time was a battle that decided Xiao Feng's life and death. If Xiao Feng passed this level, then Xiao Feng would gain Jiajing's trust and protection, and he might not know where he would go in the future. Therefore, he must never let anyone cheat!
He glanced around the people in the room, and Lu Bing could definitely be the one; Huang Jin, although cautious, should have a better relationship with Lu Bing than with himself, and he was good at figuring out Jiajing's thoughts. If he judges that Jiajing wants Xiao Feng to succeed, he might cheat!
Then there are only one and a half people in the room who won't cheat, and that half is Jiajing. Jiajing certainly hopes to find out the truth about Xiao Feng. But he had huge hopes in his heart, and there was no guarantee that when Xiao Feng's performance showed flaws, he would forcefully make up for half of it, so he could only count half of it.
The answer is obvious, you must step forward and expose Xiao Feng!
Yan Song took a step forward and showed a kind smile: "Long live, I am willing to try."
Jiajing is so shrewd. From this Gaoliang case, he can naturally feel that Lu Bing seems to be helping Xiao Feng intentionally or unintentionally. This is not surprising. If Lu Bing wants to help Shen Lian, he will naturally help Xiao Feng. And Yan Song obviously wanted to bring down Shen Lian, so he naturally had no good intentions towards Xiao Feng.
At this time, to test Xiao Feng's authenticity, apart from taking action himself, only Yan Song is the most suitable. So Jiajing smiled and nodded to show his agreement.
Yan Song took up his pen and wrote the word "immortal".
"Since Mr. Xiao has entered the fairyland and has to worship the immortal master, let's use the word "immortal". I came to see Long live today and brought something with me to dedicate to Long live. Mr. Xiao will figure out what I will offer."
Lu Bing's heart skipped a beat, Huang Jin raised the corners of his mouth slightly, and Jiajing nodded slightly. This Yan Song is ruthless enough, not counting the past, which will inevitably be known by someone; not counting the future, which still has to wait; only counting the present! This is the most feared method among fortune tellers in the world!
Xiao Feng looked at the words, Jiajing looked at him, and everyone else looked at Jiajing, wondering whether Jiajing would turn against him and kill someone on the spot if Xiao Feng's prediction was inaccurate. Although Jiajing didn't like killing people, he always hated people who dared to deceive him. Especially those who used his cultivation to deceive him and make him lose face in the world.
If Xiao Feng was captured and beaten to death on the spot, what happened here today would never be spread. This is why Jiajing only left the three most trusted people around.
Xiao Feng raised his head and looked at Jiajing: "Congratulations, senior brother, for winning the jade seal."
Jiajing was stunned and looked at Yan Song. Yan Song's face was pale and he instinctively wanted to deny it, but he immediately realized that it was the stupidest thing to do. He could only win in defeat!
"I wonder how Mr. Xiao can identify it? If it is really a seal, what words are printed on it?"
"The word 'immortal' means a mountain with people. The mountain is a stone, and jade is also called the immortal in the stone, so it can be known that it is jade. The jade has no owner, and the engraving is done by people. The jade that needs to be engraving is a seal. As for the engraving What is the word? Mr. Chief Assistant is trying to trick me. The pronunciation of the word "Xian" is the same as "Xian", and the Xian family is originally called "Xian Yun Ye He". This seal is still idle and has not been engraved."
Jiajing looked at Yan Song, who kept smiling, but his smile felt a bit like crying. His hands were a little trembling and he took out a brocade box from his sleeve. Huang Jin took it and opened the brocade box. It turned out to be a piece of white jade.
Jiajing picked it up and saw that the white jade was as thick as a thumb, with one end in the shape of a cloud, and the other end as smooth as a mirror, with all four corners intact. There was no trace of artificial carving, and it formed a natural seal!
After Jiajing began to practice Taoism, he was not very interested in artificially carved utensils. He was very fond of such naturally occurring magical things and believed that they were evidence of immortals in the world. Therefore, many ministers also followed suit and collected these treasures to donate.
Yan Song's seal was collected by his disciples from far away in Sichuan, and the secret letter was quickly delivered to Yan Song. There was no way that outsiders could know about it. He brought it to court today and originally wanted to give it to Jiajing first. At this time, he used it to stab Xiao Feng, but unexpectedly he was killed instead!
Jiajing held the jade seal, his eyes flashed with golden light, not because of the seal, but because of Xiao Feng's calculation! This is a capable person! Even if what he said about the fairyland before cannot be believed, he is definitely not a liar! There is hope for your own path to immortality!
When Yan Song saw Jiajing's expression, he knew something was wrong, and he immediately changed the subject: "Long live, Mr. Xiao's calligraphy is indeed amazing, but today Long live summoned Mr. Xiao to ask about the Gaoliang case, and Mr. Xiao still needs an explanation. After all, it is a major traitor case, and Mr. Xiao is involved in it, which will cause a lot of inconvenience."
Jiajing sat back in his seat and said with a smile: "Yan Qing is right, we should ask clearly about this matter. Then Shen Lian said you asked him to buy the sorghum, but is it true?"
Xiao Feng glanced at Lu Bing. Lu Bing had already returned to normal and didn't even look at him. Xiao Feng cursed the old fox in his heart. Although he had no good impression of Lu Bing, after he heard about Shen Lian, he decided to give Shen Lian a hand. It would be better to have more loyal ministers. Maybe the Ming Dynasty would not be destroyed, and China might become a better country. Better.
"Long live, both Shen Lian and Zhang Tianci lied. They should have been beaten into submission."
Xiao Feng recounted how he tested Zhang Tianci's calligraphy: "Long live the calligraphy test, I know it is what it is, but I don't know why. Even I didn't know why Zhang Tianci should go into sorghum at the beginning. Shen Lian and I have no intersection, come to think of it. He heard what Zhang Tianci said about me, so he pulled me in to save his life out of desperation. He didn't have a chance to tell the difference in front of the emperor, so he pulled me in to help him redress his injustice."
Jiajing nodded: "I see. The Ministry of Punishment is a little too eager to handle the case. Once Yu Maojian retires, won't there be anyone below who can handle the matter? That Liutai is useless!"
Yes, this comment, regardless of whether it was Jiajing's temporary anger or not, Liu Tai would definitely have no chance of being promoted to minister.
Yan Song smiled and said: "Long live the Holy Ming. But this matter involves the Taoism of the Immortal Family. How can ordinary people know about it? To put it bluntly, Zhang Tianci lost all his money to buy sorghum because of fortune telling, and Shen Lian was in a desperate situation with no hope. It is difficult to infer from common sense that a person is alive, and if the person handling the case does not believe it, it is common sense to torture him."
Jiajing thought about it. Taoism is mysterious and only people like him can understand it and believe it. It is unrealistic to ask the Ministry of Punishment to do the same.
So he nodded: "What Yan Qing said is that this matter does not need to be made public to the world. Just say that the country's fortune is prosperous and disaster will bring good fortune. Let those two people be released. Shen Lian has merit and should be rewarded. Although Zhang Tianci is a businessman, You can also be rewarded.”
Yan Song smiled and said: "Although Zhang Tianci is a businessman, his vision is unusual. He still has half of Mr. Xiao's shares in his grain store."
Jiajing raised his eyebrows and looked at Xiao Feng. Yan Song was indeed quite sophisticated, and he only spoke half of his words, but he successfully reduced Xiao Feng's impression in Jiajing's heart.
Jiajing was the emperor, and a well-fed man did not know a hungry man was hungry. Although he was not a fool ignorant of the sufferings of the world, knowing and experiencing them were completely different things. He knew that the people's lives were not good, but how bad could it be? How could he understand it when he sat in the palace and Xiyuan all day long?
Therefore, he took it for granted that the real monks in the world should be cicadas who ate the wind and drank the dew. How could such things as doing business be done by an expert? Xiao Feng made money by measuring calligraphy on the street, but he thought he was a liar from the beginning. Now we know that Xiao Feng also opened a grain store in partnership with others, and also used the calligraphy method to make money in business, which is really disgraceful.
That's the magic of immortality. I've been practicing it for so many years, and apart from being more resistant to freezing than ordinary people, there's no sign of being different at all. Your word test makes my eyes shine with envy, but you use it to make money?
Lu Bing could naturally feel the displeasure in Jiajing's eyes, but he could never speak for Xiao Feng at this time.
On the one hand, it is because what Yan Song said is the truth, and what he can refute is limited; on the other hand, if he clearly stands up to help Xiao Feng, he will break the agreement with Yan Shifan, and at least for now, this is still the key to Xiao Feng's life. !
He could only hope that Xiao Feng would be smarter.
Xiao Feng looked at Jiajing with a solemn expression: "Long live, do you know why I don't wear Taoist robes?"
