Chapter 8830: Out of Control
Zaohua Town.
The Wang family.
Seeing Wang Lingzhi's troubled expression, Luo Fengtang secretly laughed.
This guy also has a bad day?
Luo Fengtang had no sympathy for a wealthy gentleman like Wang Lingzhi.
When the King's Tomb was in full glory, how many people's gains were taken away by him?
However, Luo Fengtang couldn't kill them all.
What's more, Wang Lingzhi is relatively good among the squires.
"Cotton is sold at the market price. I will arrange for someone to come over and talk to you about whatever price you should pay."
Luo Fengtang said lightly.
"The Marquis is a real hero and a real celebrity. My admiration for the Marquis is like the endless flow of a river, or like a river overflowing and getting out of control..."
Wang Lingzhi's eyes lit up and he uttered a series of flattery words one after another.
"Thank you." Luo Fengtang just responded calmly.
But everyone likes to hear nice words. Unless someone is abnormal, who likes to be criticized and criticized so much?
"Wang Lingzhi, I heard that your Wang family has a good relationship with Xuyu Palace."
Luo Fengtang suddenly changed the topic.
Wang Lingzhi's heart skipped a beat, and for a moment, he didn't know what to do.
"Don't worry, Xuyu Palace did not resist the imperial court, so it is not guilty. It is normal for your Wang family to have good relations with Xuyu Palace."
Luo Fengtang said again.
Wang Lingzhi's heartstrings went up and down again, beating back and forth like this, and he was worried that he would die suddenly.
Luo Fengtang turned his attention to Duan Zifeng next to him.
Duan Zifeng's body trembled, and then he bowed to Luo Fengtang and said: "Xuyu Palace Duan Zifeng, pay your respects to the general."
He knew that he could not escape, his I am afraid that Luo Fengtang has known his identity for a long time. In this case, he might as well be honest and expose it himself.
"Duan Zifeng, you are also the incense master in Xuyu Palace. Why are you here as a guard for Mr. Wang?"
Luo Fengtang smiled slightly.
He does know Duan Zifeng’s true identity.
Before coming to Wang's house, the hidden guard had already handed him an investigation document.
Duan Zifeng is among the characters that can be investigated in the Wang family.
Duan Zifeng smiled bitterly and said: "Master Hou, this incense owner is of no use. Xuyu Palace only gives you a little money. If you want to make money, you have to rely on yourself... If Mr. Wang gives you a lot, I will go." Here we are working as a guard.”
Luo Fengtang suddenly realized.
It seems that the management of Xuyu Palace is not very good. It is quite inappropriate for an incense owner to have to go out to take jobs to support himself.
Jianghu sects rise and fall, and the real decline often begins with a lack of money.
"Can you contact your palace master Feng Bei?" Luo Fengtang thought for a while and asked.
"Yes, General, I can contact the palace master now, but I don't know if he is in the palace or not." Duan Zifeng said cheerfully.
"The palace master is not in the palace? Where could he be?" Luo Fengtang just asked, when he realized that he had asked the wrong question.
Fengbei is a living man who can go wherever he wants. No one stipulates that he must stay in the palace.
"He took someone to transport escorts. I don't know if he has returned to the palace."
Duan Zifeng gave a surprising answer.
“Drug escort?”
Luo Fengtang was really surprised.
This Xuyu Palace is not an ordinary martial arts family. It has a long history and once produced a great figure. A sword coming from the east - Feng Buping.
The current palace lord Feng Bei is Feng Buping's son, the kind who inherited his father's position.
But Xuyu Palace does not belong to the Feng family, and the position of the palace lord cannot be directly inherited by the descendants of the previous palace lord. It is a system of competition for the top.
When Feng Bei took the position of palace master, he did have elements of his father in it, but on the other hand, he also passed the competition assessment.
But taking the position of palace master shows that Feng Bei is very capable.
No matter what, you can’t go escorting.
Xuyu Palace is a sect, not a bodyguard agency.
"This is a new business recently opened by the palace owner, specializing in transporting escorts to dangerous places." Duan Zifeng was also a little embarrassed.
But he was not qualified to say anything. He himself had come to serve as Wang Lingzhi's guard, so what if the palace master went to transport the escort?
No one stole or robbed. We relied on our labor to make a living. No one could find anything wrong with it.
"Your Xuyu Palace has quite a lot of business." Luo Fengtang said.
“There are quite a few... escorts, teahouses, restaurants, jewelry shops, pawn shops, and some others that I’m not sure about.”
Duan Zifeng counted a few, he Suddenly, I discovered that Xuyu Palace seemed to be able to do all kinds of work, except for those businesses that were really impossible to do.
"Send a contact signal to your palace master. I will wait at the Wang family all day. Well, if the palace master is not here, be sure to send an old Jianghu who is prestigious in the sect and familiar with the world." Luo Fengtang.
"Yes, General." Duan Zifeng nodded.
Next. Wang Lingzhi arranged accommodation for Luo Fengtang and Ding Ye.
Ding Ye is still in the period of punishment. He doesn't dare to touch any of the tricks he played before.
Luo Fengtang lives alone in a separate courtyard.
Wang Lingzhi arranged the best accommodation in the manor and provided the highest service, and he did not dare to neglect.
Luo Fengtang did not ask Song Yi to bring troops over, and still lived alone in the other courtyard.
But at night, he did not wait for the night raider, which made him feel a little disappointed.
He deliberately created a situation where he was alone, just to give someone who was interested a chance to assassinate him.
But I don’t know whether the thoughtful person did not receive this information, or the thoughtful person was timid. No matter which way it was, in the end, the night passed peacefully without causing any trouble.
Wait until the early morning of the next day.
Two carriages came outside the manor.
The two carriages came one after another, not far apart, and both arrived at the door of Wang Lingzhi's house. After someone reported it, Wang Lingzhi hurried to the front.
After receiving the news, Luo Fengtang and Ding Ye also arrived.
“Amitabha, the poor monk has seen the Marquis.”
A monk got off the first carriage. He walked slowly to Luo Fengtang and bowed his head.
"Master, I haven't seen you for a while." Luo Fengtang returned the courtesy and said with a smile.
"The Marquis is a busy man, and the poor monk is practicing in the temple, so it is naturally difficult to meet him."
Master Jinghu smiled slightly.
When Luo Fengtang was about to introduce Wang Lingzhi to Master Jinghu, a carriage behind him also stopped, and a middle-aged dark-skinned man jumped out of the carriage above.
"Palace Master, here." Duan Zifeng's eyes lit up and he stretched out his hand to say hello.
“Zifeng, here I come.”
The dark-skinned Feng Bei strode over.
He first glanced at Duan Zifeng, then at Luo Fengtang, and immediately stepped forward to greet him: "Feng Bei, the master of Xuyu Palace, has met General Luo."
" Do you recognize me?" Luo Fengtang raised his eyebrows.
"I've never seen him before, but the person standing in front of me, such an extraordinary and unique figure, must be General Luo." Feng Beidao.
