Xuanyuan Jue

Chapter 15 The Monkey King (1)
After coming out of the basement, Feng Shen went straight back to the bedroom, without taking off his clothes, spread out the bedding, and fell asleep.

There was nothing to say all night.In a blink of an eye, the sky began to brighten.

When the rooster crowed three times, Feng's maid, Xia Zhu, came and knocked on the door.

Feng Shen was pretentious, so naturally he couldn't sleep well.Before Xia Zhu knocked a few times, he jumped off the bed and hurriedly opened the door.

"Morning, my lord..." Xia Zhu held a pot of hot soup in her hand. She first wished Feng Shen a blessing, then walked to the washstand and poured the pot of hot soup into the copper basin.

"It's you today?" Feng Shen seemed to have forgotten what happened last night, and put on a carefree look.Stretching his waist, he asked Xia Zhu, "Why didn't you see Shuang Xing?"

"Sister Shuangxing caught a cold last night... I feel a little uncomfortable," Xia Zhu saw Feng Shen asked, her face suddenly felt uncomfortable, she quickly lowered her head, added some cold water to the hot soup, and replied, "The water temperature is about the same...Please wash your hands and face..."

Feng Shen let out an "oh", didn't ask any more questions, went to the copper basin and washed his face hastily.

After Feng Shen wiped his face clean, Xia Zhu handed him another cup of strong tea.Feng Shen took a sip of it, rinsed it in his mouth, and then spat it out.

"My lord didn't sleep well last night?" Xia Zhu glanced at Feng Shen, wondering, "Why are both eyes red?"

"It's nothing," Feng Shen said with a smile, "Xia Zhu, you have a peach blossom face, maybe there is some happy event?"

"My lord is joking again! I'm a little maid, what happy event can I have..." Xia Zhu showed shyness, blushing hurriedly, walked to Feng Shen's bed, and began to roll up the quilt.

Looking at Xia Zhu's busy back, Feng Shen had an imperceptible sneer on his face.

After Xia Zhu finished tidying up, the two left the bedroom.When I came to the front hall, Chang Ma had already prepared breakfast.

After everyone had eaten, they went down to work.Only Feng Shen was still holding a stove, sitting alone in the hall, flipping through a book.

After only turning a few pages, the butler Feng Quan ran in: "Master, Master Cha is here!"

As soon as the words fell, a person appeared from behind Feng's body, cupped his hands towards Feng Shen, and said with a smile: "Hahaha... Young Master Feng, I'm checking that someone is here to bother you again!"

Feng Shen saw that it was the work of Mr. Cha, so he threw the roll up and stood up, and said with a smile, "What's the matter with Mr. Cha? There's another murder case in the yamen?"

"Master Feng always likes to joke!" That Zha Zuo waved his hand and said, "Our Sijiu City is under the feet of the emperor, how can there be a murder in the sky? This time, Zha is here and has other important matters to discuss. "

"Come on, Mr. Cha!" Feng Shen said with a smile, "Don't be so serious, did you come here to grab a meal? Come on! There just happens to be plenty of soy milk and burnt circles in the morning. I'll ask Chang Ma to bring them to you later?"

Hearing this, even Feng Quan next to him couldn't help covering his mouth and sniggering, but that Cha Wu was used to it, and he was neither sullen nor annoyed.

"Master Feng, don't talk to Cha Mou so poorly," Cha Wuzuo grinned, "I'm here to see you today, I really have something important to do!"

"Oh?" Seeing that Zha Wu's behavior didn't seem like a joke, Feng Shen became serious, "Master Zha, what's the matter?"

"The words from the Lord Fu Yin," Zha Wu said, "I would like to invite Young Master Feng to come to the house to talk about it."

Feng Shen frowned: "Master Fu Yin is looking for me?"

"That's right," Zha Wu said with a smile, "Let's go, Master Feng, the sedan chairs are waiting outside!"

Hearing it was summoned by the governor, Feng Shen didn't dare to be negligent, so he changed his attire and followed Zha Wu out of the house.

When I came to the door, there were already two small sedan chairs waiting outside.As soon as Feng Shen and Zha Wuzuo got into the sedan chair, several porters raised the pole of the sedan chair, walked unsteadily towards the main road with big strides.

Along the way, Feng Shen didn't ask any more questions, just sat on his back in the sedan chair, closed his eyes and rested his mind.After an unknown amount of time, the sedan chair fell, and Feng Shen pulled up the curtain to come out, and found himself in front of a house.

"Master Feng," at this moment, Zha Wuzuo also got out, seeing Feng Shen still standing at the door, he rushed to say, "Go in, your lord is waiting inside."

"Master Zha, you have to tell me the truth first," Feng Shen said, "What exactly is the reason why Mr. Fu Yin is looking for me?"

"Good thing! Good thing!" Zha Wu smiled and pushed Feng Shen into the door, "You'll know when you go in!"

As soon as the two entered the courtyard, Fu Yin greeted them from the hall.

Feng Shen took a look and hurriedly greeted him: "This junior has met your lord!"

Fu Yin came up a few steps and helped Feng Shen: "This is not a government office, so there is no need to be polite. My father and I have a deep relationship, so we can call each other uncle and nephew!"

"Then the younger generation should be respectful rather than obedient, and dare to claim your lord's family." Feng Shen bowed again, showing his face and smiling.

"Hahaha..." Fu Yin smiled heartily and said, "What a well-behaved nephew Feng Xian. Alright, let's talk in the hall."

After finishing speaking, Fu Yin led Feng Shen and Zha Wuzuo into the room, and divided the guests into seats.

After the family boy came up to offer tea, Feng Shen asked the Fu Yin again: "The uncle called the nephew over in his busy schedule, what's the important order?"

Fu Yin picked up the gaiwan and sipped hot tea: "Since nephew Feng Xian asks, I won't go around the bush."

Feng Shen cupped his hands and said, "Shi Bo, please tell me."

Fu Yin said: "When the old man saw his nephew Wenxiu Wubei, he wanted to recommend him to Shuntian Mansion as an 'expert'. I don't know what to do?"

"Uncle Shi is absurd." Hearing this, Feng Shen hurriedly got up, "How dare my nephew He De take on this important task? I hope Uncle Shi think twice!"

"Master Feng, at this point, have you become humble?" Before the governor could speak, Cha Wuzuo continued, "Which one in Shuntian Mansion doesn't know about Mr. Feng's reputation as the execution seat? Master Feng Since I was a child, I have followed Mr. Feng to study the study of criminal names, just by hearing and seeing it, it is better than us as officials!"

"Master Zha made fun of it," Feng Shen said with a wry smile, "Those are all my late father's skills, but I have only learned a little bit... Besides, Lord Zha will take care of the examination of cases and identification of corpses. If I If you mix your hands, won't it become a distraction?"

"Look at what Master Feng said!" Zha Wuzuo said again, "the old saying is good: wait for the empty table, and choose the best to appoint him! Besides, experience is no better than my job. Those autopsies and so on. It's up to me to deal with it myself, but I dared to bother Young Master Feng when I encountered something unclear. On weekdays, Young Master Feng only needs to help your lord and make a plan for the government office. Yes, Young Master Feng possesses special skills, if there are villains making trouble, it will be convenient to stop them..."

"That's exactly the reason!" Fu Yin nodded and said, "If it wasn't for the good nephew's action yesterday, the old man would have suffered an accident in the court. According to the old man, the post of 'experience' should be done by the good nephew. The old man seeks talent If you are thirsty, but my nephew just pushes back, could it be that the water in Shuntian Mansion is too shallow and you can’t tolerate this dragon fish like my nephew?"

"Shibo's words are serious, my nephew has no such intentions." Feng Shen quickly bowed and said, "Mr. Shibo favors me, and my nephew is sincere and fearful. However, my nephew is unruly, stubborn, and used to being loose since childhood. , breaking the rules of the yamen."

"It doesn't matter," Fu Yin smiled slightly, and said, "Nephew has such a great talent, so naturally he doesn't have to follow such red tape. If there is a case, I will assist the old man to assist in the investigation; if there is nothing, I will listen to it! "

Seeing this, Zha Wuzuo chimed in from the sidelines and said, "Your Excellency has already talked about this, so you should agree to it, Young Master Feng!"

"Forget it," Feng Shen said after pondering for a long while, "Since the Uncle loves you so wrongly, if my nephew pushes back and forth again and again, it will seem that I don't know how to flatter... Then from now on, my nephew will definitely do his best to let the uncle order him! "

"Okay, okay!" Seeing that Feng Shen agreed, the governor was very happy, "It's really a blessing to rule the people with a good nephew!"

Hearing the compliment from the governor, Feng Shen even said he didn't dare.

Feng Shen was satisfied with the errand he had experienced.Since Feng's father passed away, the Feng family's situation has deteriorated greatly.In this way, in addition to earning a lot of salary every month, he can also pass the time while on business.What's more, if they are working in Shuntian Mansion, they are people from the imperial court, and those villains who secretly plan to spy on the bone scriptures will naturally restrain themselves.In any case, it's a beautiful thing.

After discussing business matters, the three of them chatted about states.After changing a few cups of tea, Feng Shen saw that it was almost noon, so he got up to say goodbye.Fu Yin originally wanted to prepare a banquet, but Feng Shen insisted not to stay, so he had to let him go.

After leaving Fuyin's mansion, Zha Wuzuo cupped his fists and congratulated Feng Shen: "Young Master Feng, from now on, you will be the master of our Shuntian Mansion! I hope you will support me a lot in the future... Hahaha... "

"Come on, Mr. Zha," Feng Shen also smiled, "You and your lord sang together, you are determined to beat me, right?"

"That's it," Zha Wu said, "Your Master Feng is so capable, it wouldn't be a pity to stay in the house all day long? Haha... What's the matter with Master Feng? It's time for dinner, so you should hurry up and find a restaurant and set up a table." Go to the table and celebrate!"

"Master Zha, you don't eat enough from me?" Feng Shen shook his head and smiled, "I don't care, if you want to invite me today, you have to pay for it. Otherwise, if you want to get some tranquilizing pills in the future, don't ask me!"

"Don't tell me, Master Feng!" Zha Wuzuo hurriedly said, "Except for your recipe, there is nowhere else to buy that stuff! Come on! I'm going to bleed today, let's go to Zuixianlou to drink it A pot?"

"That's great!" Feng Shen joked, "It's really not easy to eat you once, then I'll have to order some good dishes seriously! Hahaha..."
