Chapter 454 Fortune Teller Wu Peifu
After receiving the news that Tan Sitong was safe and was hiding from the red lights, Wei Jichen finally felt relieved and thought: With this edict, his plan could be implemented in advance.
Now, Wei Jichen is waiting for Tan Sitong to deliver the edict to him. With the cooperation of the red light and Hawkeye, I believe that it is still easy to send someone out of the capital.
During this period, I should gather generals from all over the country to come to Lushun to prepare for major events.
If generals from all over the country come to Lushun, they will definitely attract the attention of those who are interested. So! What is the best excuse? Of course it is your own wedding.
Wei Jichen smiled bitterly, it seemed that the major events in his life were about to become a political game.
However, as long as you marry someone you like, why don’t you care about so many of them?
Wei Jichen smiled relievedly, turned around resolutely, and then went to Changxing Island to discuss the matter with the elders of the Nie family.
General Wei is getting married!
At that moment, the news of Wei Jichen's marriage was learned by ordinary people, and then it caused a sensation throughout Liaodong.
The coup was only known by the upper class, and the people didn't care.
As for Wei Jichen's marriage, these ordinary people seemed to be very interested. All the streets and alleys of Liaodong, peddlers and merchants all had excited discussions.
In a restaurant in Lushun City, everyone was talking about this matter in a lot of interest.
"Do you know? General Wei's wedding is ten days later." A drunk diner said proudly while drinking a small wine.
When everyone around him heard his words, they looked over without believing it. Someone asked, "Is it true or false?"
"Of course it's true. I have a relative who works in General Wei's mansion. He heard that the place has been arranged! Ten days later will be auspicious day, and I can't make a mistake."
"Everyone, we might be able to go to General Wei's mansion to ask for a glass of water and drink to enjoy the joy." The man raised his head and smiled with interest.
"How do you say this?" asked a young man dressed in a fortune teller softly.
"I heard from your accent, I probably came from another place." The diner first glanced at the young fortune teller curiously. It is rare for young fortune tellers these days, and it is even rare for those who are thin and not long enough to do so.
However, he was just curious. After a look, he continued: "General Wei is preparing to have a big meal outside the mansion. No matter men, women, young and old, poor and rich, you can go and have a drink."
"Wow, there are such good things, it seems we have to go early."
"That's right! By the way, I heard that General Wei married two of them this time, and they were both fair wives." A well-informed person continued to speak.
"I don't know which family's daughter is, it's such a blessing." An old man sighed. Obviously, there was a daughter in his family.
…
Several diners were envious and talked very well.
In the entire restaurant, we were talking about Wei Jichen's wedding, even the fortune teller who had just had no meal.
He touched his empty pockets, his eyes filled with meows, preparing to do a business here, and at least he could pay the money for the meal.
"Actually, these are all destined to be destined. Maybe your daughter will have a wealthy life. General Wei has just married two wives. It is said that a man is a real man and three wives and four concubines. From this point of view, General Wei will marry several more." The fortune teller started to mess around.
But, you really don't want to say that someone immediately asked loudly: "Fortune-teller, come here to calculate for me and see if my daughter is rich or not."
Wu Peifu ran over immediately, and the meal was finally settled.
Wu Peifu is from Shandong, a few years old. He just came to Liaodong not long ago. He originally wanted to join the army, but no one would accept him.
Why? Because he was addicted to opium, this boy entered a private school at the age of six and studied hard. As a father at the age of fourteen, he was poor in his family and worked as a scholar at the age of sixteen. He originally planned to take the exam for a scholar, but a few years ago he became addicted to opium and began to fall into depravity and was sucking mist all day long. However, because his family was not well off, he was just a regular visitor to the "ordinary seat" of the tobacco restaurant.
Not long ago, he was addicted to smoking and the ordinary seat was already full, so he couldn't help but run to the "VIP" box of the famous local gentry Weng. He originally wanted to use a small corner of the elegant seat to enjoy it first, but he didn't want to be kicked out by Weng.
In order to extricate this anger, Wu Peifu found a local "Ten Tigers" group composed of ten failed scholars in anger, and incited these literary gangsters to make trouble in the Weng Mansion. Afterwards, he was arrested by the government. In order to avoid this disaster, Wu Peifu fled to the capital, studied hard on the books of fate, divined others, and wrote Spring Festival couplets to make a living.
Wu Peifu's cousin Wu Liangfu was in the capital. Wu Peifu went to his mansion every few days. After finding out the whole story, Wu Liangfu shook his head and sighed, persuaded him: "Cousin, you can't live like this anymore. What kind of money do you have to pay for me? The new army of Yuan Shikai in Tianjin is recruiting soldiers. You should do your old job."
Wu Peifu was so moved that he burst into tears. It was so nice to have a cousin. He rushed to Tianjin overnight, but Wu Liangfu finally breathed a sigh of relief. The world was finally quiet and no one came to eat every day.
However, Wu Peifu, who arrived in Tianjin, could hear that the Dingliao Army won the victory in Taiwan every day. Suddenly, he was very proud and had to surrender to the Dingliao Army if he wanted to join the army. So he went to Lushun and came to Lushun.
Wu Peifu came to the recruitment office of Dingliao Army and shouted for registration. He originally thought that with his ability to read, there should be no problem.
Unexpectedly, not everyone in Dingliao Army accepted it. When the soldiers at the recruitment office saw that this guy was actually an old smoker, they directly refused and asked him to go home and quit opium before coming.
So, Wu Peifu was really tragic. He ran out of money and couldn't even go back home. What's more, he didn't want to go back at all. He was unwilling to accept it and came to join the army thousands of miles away. He was rejected just because he smoked big cigarettes. Therefore, he really made up his mind to quit.
After Wu Peifu came to this table, he saw that there were only two people on the table. One of them was a rich man, dressed in gorgeous clothes and had big ears. He was the one who called him over.
The other one made Wu Peifu feel a little curious. The man just lowered his head to drink, was wearing ordinary clothes, and his thick felt hat even covered his face tightly, and he couldn't see his appearance.
"This man has a birthday date that is precious to the richest," Wu Peifu asked with a professional tone with a smile.
The merchant said it, and Wu Peifu lowered his head and calculated for a while, and smiled and said, "According to numerology, being a wealthy person is the fate of a great man, but there were some minor omens before this." "There are omens? How to get through it?" The merchant asked anxiously with a worried look on his face.
Wu Peifu rubbed his hands. The businessman understood the rules and handed over a silver dollar. Wu Peifu was speechless: Rich people are really stingy. If they can't, they have to ask for a little more.
"This bad omen is easy to get over. As long as you stay in the room and don't go out on the fifth day of every month, you will be unlocked." Wu Peifu said calmly.
The businessman had just breathed a sigh of relief, and Wu Peifu exclaimed again: "After the bad omen are resolved, there are two big waves in life. It seems that the precious daughter is really a tragic future."
Wu Peifu was shocked and frightened the businessman so much that he quickly asked again: "What should I do?"
Wu Peifu rubbed his hands again. This time the merchant handed over five silver dollars at once. This time, Wu Peifu was satisfied and his life had been settled for several months. It seems that he met a fat sheep today, but you should not be too greedy in life.
Wu Peifu coughed twice, cleared his throat, nodded and said, "It is because the five elements lack wood, that these two big waves appear. In the following view, as long as you add a few more wood to your name, you can resolve the disaster."
Wu Peifu was afraid that he would not believe it, so he showed off his literary talent and said some of the theory of the five elements and numerology that is mysterious and difficult to distinguish between true and false.
Finally, Wu Peifu said: "As long as you resolve these disasters, you will be extremely valuable in the future. It is the fate of the general's wife. General Wei will be moved when he sees the noble daughter."
These words only made the businessman opposite smile, couldn't help but wave his hand, pretending to be generous and said, "I'll treat this table of wine and food."
