092: No luck, no luck
Zhimi was also afraid that he had done something wrong, so he immediately closed his mouth and looked at Nanli nervously.
Nan Li looked over and raised her eyebrows slightly, "My junior brother can say whatever he likes and interrupt if he likes. Miss Xu, he has already said that we are not destined to be together. If you want to buy a talisman from me today, then there is no need to waste your time.
"
Xu Linglong's smile had stiffened.
Under her sleeves, she clutched the handkerchief tightly, with veins bulging on the back of her hands.
"Whether it's fate or not, it's not money that has the final say." Xu Linglong said, "My family seems to have evil spirits entering the house, and the house is restless. I heard that Miss Sixth has extraordinary Taoism, so I would like to ask you to come and exorcise the ghosts at a good price."
The visitor made his words so clear that Nan Li said directly: "No matter how much the price is for your business, I will not accept it. Please go back."
Xu Linglong was rejected again, and her smile faded.
When the maid of the Xu family saw this, she said angrily: "My young lady wants to give you money just for the sake of the Anyang Hou Mansion. How can you be so ignorant?!"
Chu Shuohan's face turned cold: "It's just money, doesn't my family have any? If I need it, I must earn money from your family?"
He doesn't have much power, but he has a lot of money. Who should he underestimate?
Xie Beihan also said: "Miss Xu, don't you know how to discipline a maid? If the Ninth Prince hears that your maid is so rude, not only your maid, but also you will suffer."
At the mention of Yesi Heng, Xu Linglong's body trembled slightly and her face was a little pale.
Yes, now Chu Nanli is not only the sixth lady of the Hou family, but also the future ninth princess. How could she be so careless and forget about this?
She quickly scolded: "You bastard, why don't you apologize to Miss Sixth quickly?"
The Xu family's maid was shocked and hurriedly bowed to apologize.
Nan Li waved her hand, the maid was also a part-time worker, and she didn't want to embarrass the workers.
Xu Linglong lost face and did not dare to stay any longer.
After Xu Linglong left, Chu Shuo and Xie Beihan surrounded Nan Li on the left and right, and pushed Zhi Mi to the side.
Xie Beihan sighed: "Sixth sister, this is the first time I have seen you refuse business. Xu Linglong's father is a famous court elder, and her mother is the only daughter of Zhongyong Marquis. She is the princess of Yuchang County. Her family has power.
There’s gold again.”
"No matter how powerful I am, no matter how much money I have, I will not help their mother and daughter." Nan Li said expressionlessly as she took a sip of tea.
"Why?" Chu Shuo also didn't understand, "Sixth sister, I heard that Princess Yuchang is very charitable and often helps the poor."
He probably also knows some of Nanli's rules.
If she is a good person with meritorious deeds, Miss Six will help people out of trouble even if she doesn't charge money.
Nan Li put down the tea cup and said: "You know people but don't know their hearts. Why don't you think about it. She may have done something bad in the past because she is so philanthropic. She just wants to make her conscience feel better."
Xie Beihan was stunned, "Really? I have met Princess Yuchang before, and I don't think she has done anything untoward."
"That just shows that, Prince Xie, your kung fu is not up to par yet." Zhimi said, "Not to mention Princess Yuchang, but Miss Xu, she has a life in her hands.
Now he is haunted by evil spirits."
Chu Shuo froze, "She is haunted by evil spirits? Could it be...could it be that just now..."
Zhimi nodded: "Yes, the evil ghost was lying on her shoulder just now. It's a pity, so I didn't let the evil ghost show up, otherwise the second young master would have seen him."
Chu Shuo still remembered how the female ghost named Liu Ru was beheaded.
He quickly waved his hand and refused: "No, no! Fortunately it didn't show up, otherwise I wouldn't be able to eat!"
No, he will spit out everything he eats.
Xie Beihan felt it was a pity that such a good learning opportunity was missed like this!
He sighed: "That's such a pity. Hey, I don't know when I will learn how to see ghosts."
Nan Li looked at him: "You are not a true Taoist disciple, but a lay disciple. Whether you see ghosts or not, it doesn't matter."
Hearing this, Xie Beihan sighed heavily again.
Why doesn't he have this fate?
Xu Linglong left Chunxi Tower with a pale face.
After a long time, she finally recovered.
"Damn Chu Nanli!" Xu Linglong felt her body heavy and her steps were very slow.
Two days ago, she spent a lot of money to buy a talisman and seal script from someone else, which was painted by Chu Nanli.
That talisman blocked her from disaster, so she hurriedly asked the maid to buy a few more. Who knew that Chu Nanli didn't want to sell them anymore.
The Xu family's maid frowned, "Miss, what should we do?"
Xu Linglong was also upset, and there was a beggar blocking her way in front of her.
Just as she was about to scold someone to move away, the beggar said, "Miss, wait a minute. I see that the hall of the lady is black, and her whole body is exuding a fierce energy. She is being haunted by an evil spirit."
When Xu Linglong saw the beggar's ragged clothes and his appearance as an expert, he said, "What kind of evil spirits are there? If you keep talking nonsense, I won't be polite."
This beggar stinks!
She covered her nose with a handkerchief and took a detour.
The beggar hurriedly followed up. He seemed to have an old ailment on his feet and staggered: "I'm not talking nonsense. That evil spirit was burned to death. Miss, I don't know if I am wrong."
Xu Linglong suddenly stopped and stared at the beggar: "You...you are the master?!"
"I am Li Zhengkui, Master Li from Beifeng Temple!" Li Zhengkui said in a low voice, "Seeing that Miss was in trouble, I revealed my identity to save her. Please keep quiet, Miss."
The Taoist priest of Beifeng Temple?
Xu Linglong immediately remembered that Li Zhengming of Beifeng Temple had been beheaded in public for refining the evil elixir for Concubine Li Guifei, while his junior brother Li Zhengkui was on the run, and the government had posted an arrest warrant.
But now she couldn't care whether Li Zhengkui was an imperial offender or not, and said: "If the Heavenly Master can help me survive this disaster, he will be my great benefactor. How can I repay kindness with enmity?"
Li Zhengkui chuckled and said, "My Taoism is superb, so I can naturally help you."
In order to avoid being hunted, he had to pretend to be a beggar, without enough food and clothing.
After living for decades, this was definitely the most humiliating time in his life!
Fortunately, his life should not be cut off. When he met Xu Linglong on the street, he wanted to make a lot of money and then leave Kyoto to eat well.
Xu Linglong was overjoyed and immediately invited Li Zhengkui back home.
After Li Zhengkui took a shower and freshened up, he put on his robe and regained his previous splendor.
The maid led the way and took him over to meet their mother and daughter.
Princess Yuchang was dressed simply. Because she believed in Buddhism all year round, she wore only a jade hairpin in her bun and no other decorations.
When Li Zhengkui saw it, he was immediately frightened.
I saw that Princess Yuchang was surrounded by several ghosts, all of them evil ghosts and fierce ghosts. The ghost energy was so strong that it almost swallowed up Princess Yuchang's luck!
