I Just Won't Play By The Book

294 Looking for a Son (2) “Yao Er…My son!”

Suppressing the sadness in his heart, Huo Zhishang bowed to Jiang Beiran again and said,””Your Majesty’s painting skills can be described as divine. The child in this painting looks like my son.”

“Since that’s the case, go back and wait for the news. Fu Cheng, you stay.”

Huo Zhishang knelt down and kowtowed to Jiang Beiran before turning to leave.

After Huo Zhishang had walked far away, Li Fucheng, who couldn’t hold back anymore, cupped his hands and said,”Your Majesty is wise and divine, even…”

“Cut the crap. Let me ask you, who is this Huo Zhishang?”

Li Fucheng, whose flattery was interrupted, was stunned for a moment before he replied,”He is from Yunzhou County, Huzun Town.”

Jiang Beiran asked about this because he was naturally curious about Huo Zhishang’s ability to trigger the Earth Grade option.

“How did you two meet?”

“A few months ago, I went through a bloody battle at Gang Nian Village and almost died from exhaustion. Fortunately, Brother Huo helped me and I escaped from death.”Li Fucheng asked uneasily,”Could it be that Your Majesty thinks there is something wrong with him?”

“Yes.” Jiang Beiran nodded.

‘Hmm???’

Li Fucheng was stunned. He thought that Big Brother Wang would answer,” Not really.” He didn’t expect that he would nod his head to confirm. This made him a little unsure of how to respond.

“Keep an eye on him after you return. If there’s anything unusual, report to me immediately.”

“Yes, sir!” Li Fucheng cupped his hands and nodded.

“Okay, you go too.”

After Li Fucheng left, Jiang Beiran picked up her embroidered shoes and found an empty space.

Just like he had done with Muyao, Jiang Beiran first set up the Six-sided Truth Listener Formation, then picked up the Ruyi Lottery Pot and began searching for Huo Wenkang, who had been missing for seven years.

With his personal belongings, his birth characters, and his physiognomy, it was much easier to find Muyao than it was for him to find her.

‘I got it.’

After locking onto Huo Wenkang’s aura, Jiang Beiran flew southwest.

Anxing County, Wushu County.

Jiang Beiran, who was dressed in civilian clothes, walked onto the street. Not far in front of him stood a young man who was hawking his wares. “The champion dish! Selling the champion dish!”

The loud noise immediately attracted many onlookers.

“Why is this dish called the top scholar’s dish?”

“Isn’t it just ordinary cabbage?”

“That’s right, that’s right.”

Seeing more and more guests gather, the young man smiled and said,””Aunties and uncles, you still don’t know? That Liu Jiangnian in town ate my top scorer dish and became the top scorer!”

Everyone burst into laughter.

“You little kid, you’re still young but you don’t learn well. If you could get into the top scorer by eating a few cabbages, I would have become an official in Ning Du a long time ago.”

“That’s right. This is just an ordinary cabbage.”

“Seriously, of all people, why did you have to learn from those charlatans?”

As if he had expected everyone’s reaction, the young man laughed and said,””Uncles and aunties, I guessed that you wouldn’t believe me, so I specially invited Liu Jiangnian.”

As soon as the young man finished speaking, a young man dressed like a scholar walked to the side of the young man and bowed to everyone.”I am Liu Jiangnian. Greetings, fellow villagers.”

At this moment, a few people in the crowd immediately shouted,”Aiyo! He’s really the top scholar!”

“Yes! It was him! I met him when the results were released.”

“The top scholar is really here. Quick, little onion, go up and hug that big brother.”

At this moment, the young man blocked all the people who were about to rush up to watch and said,”Sigh! Everyone, don’t be in a hurry to be envious. This top scorer ate my family’s top scorer dishes to get into the top scorer. As long as you buy them back for your children to eat, you don’t have to be envious of him.”

Liu Jiangnian immediately added,””That’s right. Ever since I started eating the Qu family’s top scholar dish, I felt that my thoughts were agile and my writing was like a god. It was really wonderful! Wonderful!”

When they heard the top scorer admit that he was the top scorer who got in after eating the top scorer’s dishes, the crowd exploded.

“How much is this dish? Give me a piece!”

“Me too, me too! I have three children, I want three!”

“Give me one too! I want the big one!”

..

Facing the enthusiastic crowd, the young man slowly raised two fingers and said,”Two silver coins for one.”

“What? Two taels of silver for one pill? Why don’t you go rob them!”

“That’s right! Even snatching isn’t as fast as you!”

“Others only sell cabbages for a few coins!”

Looking at the excited villagers, the young man slowly shook his head and said,”Uncles and aunties, I already said that my dish is the top scorer’s dish. If you eat it, you can win the top scorer’s dish! Is two pieces of silver expensive? If your child can get into the top scorer, it will be worth more than gold!”

Everyone was silent for a while after hearing this. Finally, a man cursed hatefully,”Two coins it is, give me one!”

After buying the first one, there would naturally be a second one.

As more and more people rushed to buy, the others were afraid that the vegetables would be snatched up, so they hurried home to get money.
