Prince of Tang Dynasty

Chapter 170 Pass Token

When Hegan Chengji shouted the phrase "Bid what you want", the surroundings suddenly became quiet.

Although everyone shouted loudly just now, it really takes some courage to make an offer at this time, so no one spoke for a while, and the surroundings suddenly became quiet.

After about a dozen breaths, a weak voice suddenly sounded from the crowd.

"Xiaosheng...Xiaosheng bid a penny!"

Hearing this voice, all the people around looked at the direction from which the voice came from. They wanted to see who was bidding. Under such circumstances, no one participated in the bidding.

Seeing this scene, He Gan Chengji frowned immediately.

"Someone has bid for a penny, is there any bid? If not, I will count down, three, two, one, all right, the person who bid just now comes here to get the token!"

Hearing Hegan Chengji's words, the crowd who had been watching the excitement suddenly "coaxed" and started discussing again.

"Wow, it really only costs one penny!"

"Tsk tsk, if I asked for two pennies just now, wouldn't this token belong to me? Oh, what a pity!"

"That's right, I don't have much, but I still have a few pennies."

Seeing the crowd discussing a lot, Hegan Chengji, who was standing at the entrance of the royal clubhouse, frowned immediately.

"This penny is too little, what is the purpose of His Royal Highness doing this?"

Although Datang has the theory of bidding, it is a dispute between two people. This is the first auction in Datang, so everyone does not know how much this kind of auction is in terms of swallowing money. horrible.

But now everyone didn't think so much, and all their eyes were on the "lucky guy" who bought the access token for a penny.

This is a young man who is only in his twenties. He is wearing a blue cloth robe and a hooded head. It can be seen from his attire that he is a scholar.

After he came out of the crowd, he came to the door of the royal club, and bowed his hands to Hegan Chengji.

"Xiaosheng Luo Xun, I have met Shangguan!"

Seeing his respectful look, Hegan Chengji was also very satisfied, and nodded immediately.

"It turns out that you are a scholar with fame and fame. Your accent doesn't look like a person from Chang'an. Did you bring a way to pass the customs?"

Datang’s household registration system is relatively sound. If people from one place want to go to another place, they need the government to issue an identity certificate. This is the customs clearance guide.

When Hegan Chengji asked if he had any guides to clear the customs, Luo Xun nodded immediately.

"Yes, Xiaosheng has already brought it with him."

As he said that, he took out the customs clearance guide from his arms, and handed it to Hegan Chengji respectfully.

He Gan Chengji took it over and took a look, and found that there was nothing wrong with the guide, so he smiled slightly, took out a wooden pass token from the tray, and handed it to Luo Xun's pass guide together with Luo Xun.

"Okay, give me a penny, and you can go in."

Hearing Hegan Chengji's words, Luo Xun's face suddenly showed a gleam of joy, and he quickly took out a penny and handed it to Hegan Chengji.

"Now Xiaosheng can go in."

"Well, let's go in!"

Seeing that He Gan Chengji nodded, Luo Xun was immediately overjoyed, shouted "Thank you, Shangguan", and ran into the clubhouse.

Seeing this scene, the onlookers were all stunned.

"Oh, I read that right, did the scholar really go in?"

"You should read that right, he really went in, unless I'm also blind!"

"..."

Hearing the lively discussions around him, a trace of irritability flashed across Hegan Chengji's face, and he immediately let out a loud shout.

"Shut up, I made you all dumb just now, what are you arguing about now? Now start the auction of the second royal club access token, the reserve price is one penny, and you want to bid!"

With Luo Xun as a role model last time, everyone didn't hesitate at this time, and immediately started shouting.

"I'll pay five cents."

"Five coins are fine, I'll give you one hundred coins!"

"Is one hundred coins a big deal? I'll pay a consistent amount."

"I hit twice!"

"I am out..."

Amidst everyone's bidding, Luo Xun, who had just entered the clubhouse, suddenly felt lucky.

Luo Xun was born in a poor family, so he was not rich, he only had a lot of money, and this money was used for his travel expenses to go back to his hometown. If someone really asked for two guan just now, he would obviously have no chance to come in.

"It's dangerous. Fortunately, everyone didn't respond to my first bid. It's lucky!"

Just when Luo Xun was overjoyed, a pleasant female voice suddenly came from beside him.

"Young master, His Royal Highness, please go upstairs to tell me!"

Your Royal Highness?

Hearing this, Luo Xun was stunned for a moment, and he turned his head in an instant, his eyes were full of shock.

"His Royal Highness is here? And you want to see me?"

Seeing his shocked look, Yun'er suddenly smiled and nodded.

"Yes, His Royal Highness is really upstairs, please come with me, my lord!"

After finishing speaking, Yun'er walked forward with lotus steps. Seeing this scene, Luo Xun couldn't keep up and was in a daze, so he quickly followed.

At this time, Luo Xun's face was completely replaced by surprise, and he cheered in his heart as he walked.

"It seems that I am really lucky today. Not only did I enter the Tang Royal Club, but I was also able to meet His Royal Highness the Crown Prince. God has treated me well!"

Under Luo Xun's surprised look, the two soon came to Gao Ming, seeing Yun'er brought him, Gao Ming smiled and nodded.

"You go down first."

"Yes!"

Yun'er turned around and left after a blessing. After she left, Gao Ming pointed to the chair opposite him, and then smiled at Luo Xun.

"Stop standing there, sit down!"

Hearing Gao Ming's words, Luo Xun finally came to his senses, and he immediately cupped his hands towards Gao Ming.

"Xiaosheng, thank you His Royal Highness for giving me a seat!"

After finishing speaking, he graciously walked to the chair opposite Gao Ming and sat down. Seeing this scene, Gao Ming nodded again.

"Yes, neither humble nor overbearing, you look like a scholar, what's your name, where are you from?"

Hearing Gao Ming's compliment, Luo Xun's face suddenly became happy, and he bowed his hands to Gao Ming again.

"Back to His Royal Highness, the Xiaosheng is named Luo Xun, and he is from Yiwu, Wuzhou."

Although it was just an ordinary chat, Gao Ming was a serious person. After hearing Luo Xun's answer, he frowned in confusion.

"Wuzhou? Where is this Wuzhou?"

There are many prefectures and counties in the Tang Dynasty, and it is normal not to know a prefecture or county, so when Gao Ming asked about the location of Wuzhou, Luo Xun quickly replied: "His Royal Highness, Wuzhou is in the east of Jiangnan!"

Hearing this answer, Gao Ming smiled and nodded.

"It turns out to be Jiangnan Eastern Road. It's a good place. It can be said that there are outstanding people, especially the beautiful scenery of West Lake. If there is a chance, the prince really wants to go and see it!"

Jiangnan Dongdao is now Zhejiang, Gao Ming mentioned West Lake, of course Luo Xun knew about it, and he immediately laughed too.

"What His Royal Highness said is very true. The West Lake does have a beautiful scene, but when it comes to outstanding people, Guanzhong is not inferior to Jiangnan in the slightest. If nothing else, let's talk about your couplets, Your Highness. Nowadays, no one in the world knows about it. dawn?"

Hearing his words, Gao Ming was immediately happy.

"Oh, I can't see that you are also very good at flattering, not bad, not bad, I like it!"

"Uh……"

Seeing the embarrassment on Luo Xun's face, Gao Ming suddenly realized that he was being too straightforward, so he burst out laughing.

"Xiao Luo, don't mind me, I'm just a straightforward person, well, since we're talking about couplets, I'll give you one, um, let me think about it..."

Gao Ming thought for a while, and suddenly saw a teapot on the table, and he immediately slapped his hands.

"Hey, yes, I'll take the West Lake as the theme. Listen carefully, this couplet is like this-carrying a tin pot, swimming in the West Lake, dropping the tin pot into the West Lake, what a pity, the tin pot!"

"..."

Hearing Gao Ming's couplet, Luo Xun was dumbfounded. At this moment, he really wanted to give himself two slaps.

"I'm just a bitch, why don't you mention couplets in front of the prince? Are you okay now? Shame on you?"

Looking at Luo Xun's silence for a long time, and his flushed face, Gao Ming immediately realized that he had played a little too much, and if he continued like this, he might scare people away.

Thinking of this, Gao Ming coughed dryly twice.

"Ahem... That little Luo, it doesn't matter if you get this couplet right, my couplets are always difficult to get right, and there are not many people in the court who can stand in front of me, so you don't have to worry about it, yes Yes, are you married?"

Luo Xun is not a fool either, he also heard that Gao Ming deliberately changed the topic so that he could step down, so he immediately bowed his hands to Gao Ming with a grateful face.

"Return to His Royal Highness, Xiaosheng is already married, and the child is five years old."

Luo Xun was about 20 years old, so he was not surprised that he was already married and had children, so he nodded with a smile.

"Oh, is the child a boy or a girl, what's his name?"

In Gao Ming's opinion, even if he can't find a topic, as long as the other party is a father, it is generally not wrong to talk about his children.

Just as Gao Ming thought, a smile appeared on Luo Xun's face after hearing his words.

"Thank you, Your Royal Highness, for your concern. The child's name is King Bin."

As soon as Luo Xun finished speaking, Gao Ming nodded his head immediately.

"Well, the name Bin Wang is very good, not bad...Huh? Bin Wang? Luo Bin Wang?"

Speaking of this, Gao Ming was a little dumbfounded, he raised his head and looked at Luo Xun in some astonishment.

"You said your surname is Luo? Which Luo? The one with the horse and the other? The one with the camel?"

Seeing Gao Ming's astonished expression, Luo Xun quickly stood up and bowed to Gao Ming.

"It's this Luo, Your Highness, this is..."

Before Luo Xun finished speaking, Gao Ming couldn't help laughing out loud.

"Hahahaha, that's right, that's right, it's Luo. Now he's five years old, and he's still from Zhejiang. That's right, he's King Luo Bin. You should have a son like King Luo Bin. Little Luo, I didn't expect you to be the father of the Four Heroes of the early Tang Dynasty, you are awesome! "

After speaking, Gao Ming gave Luo Xun a thumbs up. Looking at this scene, Luo Xun was completely dumbfounded.

What's the matter?
