Chapter 415: Wenqu's Wedding, Moral Blackmail!
Chapter 415: Wenqu’s Wedding, Moral Blackmail! (Second Update!)
Bai Suzhen saw Chu Feng, and a look of joy appeared in her eyes. She said, "Sir, my immortal body is almost complete!"
Chu Feng heard this and said with a smile: "Okay, when you succeed in refining it, we will get married!"
Once the immortal true body is refined and the human body is reconstructed, Bai Suzhen will no longer be a demon and there will be no obstacles to her marriage.
Xiaoqing next to her asked, "Sister, are you really not going to become an immortal?"
Bai Suzhen sighed, "In these twenty years, we still haven't found all eight tears. It seems I won't be able to become an immortal. I'll just let down Guanyin Bodhisattva!"
The Immortal Pudu next to him was silent. In fact, in order for Bai Suzhen to collect eight drops of tears and become an immortal, the Buddhist sect really made a lot of efforts, but Xu Xian was too powerful, and all the arrangements were basically meaningless.
Moreover, now that Wenquxing has become the son of Lianqiao, his luck has shifted. The Buddhist sect is no longer so eager to help Bai Suzhen become an immortal, and everything is left to fate.
Then, Chu Feng told him that Xu Shilin was going to get married.
Although Bai Suzhen and Xiaoqing had mixed feelings, they still agreed to be present and give gifts.
……
In the blink of an eye, three days later, the sun was scorching.
The Xu family started to hold the wedding ceremony, and all the prominent families and court officials in Lin'an Prefecture came and presented gifts and congratulations.
"Mr. Sun Jingwei from Qiantang County sent a gift of one thousand taels of silver and a piece of hundred-year-old wild ginseng."
"The Wu family of Yuhang County sent a hundred rolls of silk and a pair of jade bi."
……
"Prime Minister Liang's son, Liang Lian, sent three thousand taels of silver and ten pieces of gold and silver jewelry."
"Enping County Prince Zhao Qu sent a thousand taels of silver and a pair of jade pendants!"
Chu Feng was slightly surprised when he heard this. He didn't expect that two "big shots" would come.
Liang Lian, the son of Prime Minister Liang, is a character in the Legend of the New White Snake. He is a vicious person.
Prince Enping Zhao Qu was the adopted son of Queen Wu. Since the emperor had no children and was already old, he had the opportunity to become the crown prince and inherit the throne.
But Chu Feng had already investigated and found that this person had great ambitions but little talent and was a complete waste.
These two people came to see him, it must be bad news.
Not long after, Chu Feng saw a young man in brocade clothes and a middle-aged man in a black python robe coming towards him. Judging from their half-gold and half-green aura, they were obviously Liang Lian and Zhao Qu.
At this time, the middle-aged man in the python robe clasped his fists and saluted, saying: "My young prince greets the Medical Saint!"
The young man in brocade clothes also clasped his fists and saluted, saying, "Liang Lian greets the Medical Saint!"
Nowadays, Chu Feng's title of Medical Saint is not only recognized by the people of the world, but even the imperial court has to recognize it, because Chu Feng founded the Qinglong Hall and saved countless people, and he has accumulated a huge amount of humanitarian merits. Even the Heavenly Court has to accept the title of Medical Saint.
"I'm very happy that the prince and the prime minister are here. Please take a seat!"
Chu Feng did not show any disgust, but was ready to see what these two people were up to.
Soon after, Bai Suzhen, Xiaoqing sisters, and the two gods Pudu Daxian and Yue Lao also came to congratulate them.
After all, it is the marriage of Wenquxingjun, and since Pudu Daxian and Yue Lao are often in the human world, they will naturally come over to give a gift.
Then the bride and groom bowed in the hall.
After the worship, the banquet began.
Bai Suzhen, Xiaoqing, Lianqiao and Xu Jiaorong ate together in the backyard.
Xu Shilin, Big Beard and Li Gongfu were responsible for receiving the guests.
Chu Feng sat at the same table with Liang Lian and Zhao Qu. The others present were all high-ranking officials and heads of prominent families. Soon, Zhao Qu said, "To be honest, Medical Saint, several prefectures in the northwest are suffering from severe drought this year, and they need relief funds and grain. I have come here on His Majesty's orders, hoping that the Medical Saint will generously donate 30 million taels of silver to help the victims."
Liang Lian also stood up and clasped his fists, saying, "Medical Saint, the people are suffering now. I hope you will be generous and help the victims!"
Upon hearing this, Chu Feng suddenly burst into laughter.
In fact, he had no objection to providing relief to the disaster victims, but he asked for 30 million taels of silver, which obviously showed that he was being treated as a silver bank and was asking for an exorbitant amount.
Moreover, even if he really gave silver, not even one-tenth of it would be used for disaster relief.
Once this door is opened today, I am afraid that if there is any disaster in the future, people will come to him.
What, you don't donate?
Then aren't you, the Medical Saint, just seeking fame?
This tactic is commonly known as moral kidnapping, and is extremely effective against people with a high reputation for integrity.
However, Chu Feng has a flexible moral bottom line and is not afraid of any moral kidnapping.
Therefore, he smiled and said, "Your Highness, it's not difficult to ask Xu to donate 30 million taels of silver. All we need is for each of the civil and military officials and the royal family to donate 3 million taels! Then, all the donated silver will be supervised and managed by the Qinglong Hall, and will be used exclusively for disaster relief. Even if Xu loses everything, he will still donate these 30 million taels of silver. How do you say it?"
Zhao Qu's face turned gloomy when he heard this. He asked all the civil and military ministers and royal nobles in the court to donate three million taels each. This was even more difficult than rebelling to seize the throne!
The world is shared by the emperor and the scholar-officials.
If the emperor dares to do this, he will lose his throne!
Not to mention that he is the adopted son of an emperor!
Then, Zhao Qu said in a deep voice: "Xu Xian, are you going to disobey the order?"
At this time, Chu Feng smiled and said, "Why do you say that, Your Highness? Disaster relief is the responsibility of the imperial court. Your Highness and the other high-ranking officials enjoy their high positions, but are unwilling to contribute. Instead, they want to raid Xu's house. Do you think I can be bullied? If so, Your Highness, bring your army to Qiantang County. I will wait!"
Now that he has grown strong, he no longer needs to hide. If the emperor accuses him of treason, he will immediately raise an army!
When the emperor thinks you are going to rebel, don't panic. As long as you really have the strength to rebel, the emperor will beg you not to rebel!
But when Zhao Qu heard this, he was furious and prepared to order the imperial guards and royal servants outside Xu's mansion to rush in and raid the Xu family.
At this moment, Liang Lian hurriedly grabbed Zhao Qu. He knew that Xu Xian was a powerful mana warrior, and even a Buddhist monk like Fahai was no match for him.
If he lets this idiot Zhao Qu go crazy here, he will have to die here today.
And because of Prime Minister Liang, Zhao Qu did not continue to do stupid things.
Then, Liang quickly said, "The Medical Saint is joking. Donations are all based on your heart. The Medical Saint can donate as much as he wants."
Chu Feng heard this and smiled, "Mr. Liang, the donated silver won't reach the people. I'm going to take a million dan of grain and go to the northwest to provide disaster relief myself!"
Liang Lian was speechless when he heard this. He cursed it as bad luck and quickly left with Zhao Qu.
However, Chu Feng's expression became much more serious.
After this incident, the confrontation between Qinglongtang and the Song Dynasty court has become inevitable, and they will probably be suppressed soon.
But Chu Feng was not too worried. As long as the gods in heaven did not take action, Qinglong Hall was enough to deal with the Song Dynasty court.
At the same time, in Jinshan Temple, the old abbot passed away, and Fahai, who originally lived in Leifeng Pagoda, took over as abbot, and his eyesight had recovered.
At this time, he looked like an old monk with white eyebrows and kind eyes.
Three days later, Xu Shilin went to Beijing alone to take the exam.
Please order more!
