In fact, the Jing family's prominent position in the Chu State was mainly supported by several officials. The leader was Jingrui, the official Shaofu, who ranked as Shangqing. There was also another Shangqing, Yin Jinghui of Yangzhou, who was in charge
Yangzhou is also the main fiefdom of the Jing family.
Under him were Si Gong Jingxuan, who won the trust of the King of Chu, and General Zhongshe Jinghuan, who was an important general in the army. Both of them were senior officials.
In addition to these mainstays, the Jing family also had many influential figures in Chu State, such as Jing Yue, the third master of Danlunzong. Although he was in the opposition, he was a figure who could enter and leave the palace.
Wu Sheng stayed in Jingyi Manor. This manor was located on the eastern outskirts of Yingdu. It had a very grand scale, including Taoshan and Hushui, and had more than 10,000 people, comparable to a city.
Wu Sheng's arrival aroused great curiosity among the nobles of the Jing family in the manor. Everyone rushed to his yard to see the true face of this half-crazy fool. According to Jingrui, this was one of his former
I found my best friend's son when I went back to the old house in Yingchi Villa. I saw that he was lonely and helpless, so I took him back and raised him, which can be considered as a legacy for my best friend.
"When did your husband have a close friend? I haven't heard of it," Madam Zhao asked.
Jing Rui said: "Back then, I was living in seclusion in Yingchi to study Taoism, and I met a good friend, with whom I became a close friend. Three years later, I returned to Yingdu and invited him to come, but he didn't like Yingdu, a prosperous and secular place, so he declined.
, and then gradually lost contact.”
Zhao asked curiously: "What is the name of this close friend of your husband?"
Jingrui said: "The surname is Shen, Shen Sutu."
Zhao asked again: "Are you from the Shenbaoxu tribe, the doctor? Shen's patients should be raised by Shen."
Jingrui was displeased: "The Shen family has many branches. Even if he is a member of Shen Baoxu's clan, he may not recognize him, and even if he does, he may not be willing to raise him. Shen Sutu is dead, so I can raise his son!"
Zhao didn't dare to say anything more, so she had to obey: "Well, raising the son of an old friend is also a good story."
Jingrui stroked his beard and smiled without saying a word.
Zhao thought for a while and said, "There has to be a name, right? When the housekeeper asked, he said that he would ask the doctor. What is the reason for this?"
Jing Rui said: "Isn't he crazy? How can he remember his own name? I just gave him a name, let's call him Shen Yu."
After Wu Sheng arrived in Jingyi, he wandered around the city for several days, trying hard to find red carp. According to Jingrui's instructions, when the servants brought him meals, they would bring a few fish with them for each meal, but these
None of them were what he wanted. He went to Jingrui many times and asked where the red carp from Yingchi Villa had gone. Jingrui always told him that the fish in the meal given to him were the fish he was looking for.
Wu Sheng was speechless. He repeatedly emphasized: "The fish you gave me is not the fish I want!"
Jingrui replied: "Don't worry, you will know when I find someone to cure your disease. This is the fish you want."
Wu Sheng said: "You are not me, how do you know what fish I want?"
Jing Rui said: "You are not the real you now. You are sick and need to be treated."
Wu Sheng denied that he was sick: "I'm not sick, I just saw some things that you can't see."
Jingrui comforted him: "Okay, okay, you're not sick. Then we'll ask someone to help you take a look and see how we can make what you see the same as what we see."
Wu Sheng asked: "Do you think I am a fool?"
Jingrui said hurriedly: "No one said you are a fool. Take good care of your health here. Once you recover, you will be better than anything else."
So Wu Sheng gave up the idea of communicating with Jingrui. He guessed that Jingrui's thoughts were probably because of his profound cultivation. Maybe he thought he could use him? But Jingrui didn't understand what he wanted at all.
A chicken talks like a duck. But he can only stay. He knows in his heart that his opportunity will definitely fall on Jingrui, because every time he deals with Jingrui, he feels a headache.
Jingrui was not completely trying to deal with him. After talking to Wu Sheng several times, he asked people to send any fish-shaped artifacts to Wu Sheng for inspection, such as fish-shaped magical instruments, fish-shaped accessories, fish-shaped stone carvings, etc.
wait.
Wu Sheng didn't know what the red carp in the flashing scene were, so he didn't dare to miss it. Every time he got a similar object, he quickly visualized it, not just visualizing it, but
After the visualization failed, I continued to play around with it. After half a month, the house was filled with all kinds of "fish".
Jingrui even built a fish pond in the yard where he lived, and there were many red carp in the pond, but unfortunately none of them met his requirements.
On this day, he was in a daze at the red carp swimming by the fish pond, and several red carps were talking to him.
Some of them blew bubbles and told him that they came from a certain river and were caught here for no reason, and asked him if he could let them go back. So Wu Sheng replied that when he found his own red carp, he would let them go.
Some fish were very worried, fearing that Wu Sheng would eat them, but Wu Sheng comforted them and told them that in his eyes, red carp were for viewing, not for eating.
Another fish asked Wu Sheng, what are you going to do when you look for fish everywhere? Wu Sheng replied that he was looking for his own opportunity...
While the conversation was getting heated, a few young people came in from outside the yard. They were gorgeously dressed and calm in demeanor. They talked and laughed all the way into the moon gate.
The young girl at the head was very beautiful. She pointed at Wu Sheng and smiled at the others: "Look, this is the fool that my father brought back. Did you hear that? He is talking to the fish."
A young man next to him sighed: "This fool is really lucky. He was picked up and raised by his uncle, and he will have no worries from now on."
These were the princes of Chu who had nothing to do and went to Jingyi to play with Jingrui's daughter Huizhi. When they heard that Jingrui had adopted a fool who loved fish, they came over to watch the fun.
Young Master Mifei came up curiously and asked Wu Sheng: "Why do you love fish?"
Several companions laughed in unison: "Because Huizhi said, his name is Shen Yu!"
Wu Sheng heard someone talking to him next to him, but he was disturbed by the chatter of fish swimming in the pond and did not hear clearly, so he asked: "Are you here to deliver fish?"
Mi Fei responded quickly: "Not bad!" She turned around and called her companions: "Quickly, bring the fish you caught."
In order to watch Wu Sheng's excitement, they had brought a few red carps before coming and put them into the pond at this moment. So Wu Sheng hurriedly contemplated, but was naturally disappointed.
Wu Sheng announced to them: "Whoever finds the red carp I want, I will grant him a wish."
Then everyone laughed and was overjoyed.
After a while of fun, everyone left chatting and laughing. Wu Sheng added behind them: "Find the red carp I want, and I will grant him a wish. Don't forget it!"
Everyone laughed again.
After leaving Wu Sheng's residence, the doorman and guard came in a hurry and saluted Huizhi. Huizhi asked, "Is there something urgent?"
Wei Zhong said: "The doctor heard that Mr. Hong came to Jingyi and wanted to meet Mr. Hong. I wonder if Mr. Hong is free?"
One of them stepped out, it was Fei Hong. He said to Wei Zhong: "Uncle Jing has summoned you, so you should go there."
Thanks to Xinxitang for the reward, and thanks to fellow Taoists for their monthly tickets and recommended tickets.
