"Road to Road, very Avenue?"

“The Tao that can be told is not the eternal Tao; the name that can be named is not the eternal name…Mysterious and profound, the door to all wonders…”

This is the content of the Tao Te Ching. Ordinary people generally don't read this book. It can be seen that Brother Pei Zhang's memory ability is really scary.

"The first mountain in the Southern Mountain Classic is called Que Mountain?"

"The first mountain in the Southern Mountains Classic is called Que Mountain. Its summit is called Zhaoyao Mountain, which overlooks the Western Sea... The Liji River originates there and flows westward into the sea. There are many fertile rivers in it, and wearing it will prevent diseases."

This passage comes from "Classic of Mountains and Seas". Brother Pei Zhang was able to memorize so much content in just a short time.

...

He tested it many times afterwards, and no matter what book it was, Guo Peizhang could recite it word for word.

Mingyue was stunned.

Isn’t this a mobile cloud disk for the brain?

Walking Baidu!

Others also noticed the difference and were very surprised.

If there were such talents in the Hanlin Academy, there would be no need to look through ancient books specifically, they could just remember them directly.

If those investigating the case had such a photographic memory, they wouldn't need to look at the files every day.

If the officials of the Honglu Temple who have studied the culture and language of other countries have such ability, they will be even more invincible!

Pei Zhang was a little worried. He was afraid that his "photographic memory" was just a temporary gift from God that would last for one or two days, and it would lose its effect the next day.

Mingyue stood on tiptoe and patted his shoulder, no, she patted his back.

"Brother Pei Zhang, there's no need to worry so much. As long as we can remember everything we see, we'll be better than others. Who knows what will happen in the future?"

"You should do more useful things when you are capable. For example, hey, memorize more history books and help my uncle the emperor later."

Pei Zhang never dared to dream of becoming an official in the imperial court and serving the emperor. He quickly waved his hands and said, "No, no, the princess is really flattering me."

Mingyue shook her head, "Brother Peizhang, please don't underestimate yourself!"

Looking at Mingyue's eyes as big as grapes, sparkling and bright, Pei Zhang was full of confidence and expectation.

"Okay! I will definitely try my best to cherish every moment that I still have a photographic memory, and strive to do something practical for the Great Zhou and the Emperor in the future."

"Yeah! That's right!"

Mingyue clapped her hands happily and said, "Hey, uncle, look at me, I can easily recruit some little experts for you."

Guo Rufang never expected that in just a blink of an eye, Mingyue would offer her son a job. Regardless of whether he would be successful in the future, this would at least give him a title in front of the emperor.

She never thought that her children could become officials or something like that. She just hoped that her two children would be safe and healthy.

Looking at the kind Jiang Mengrou family, Guo Rufang was about to cry again, but she gritted her teeth and forced back the tears.

"Sister Fang, speaking of which, do you have any backup plan?"

At this time, Mingyang, Minghao and Lan Jinlin, along with their other two brothers, went to the study to discuss.

Aunt Lan noticed Guo Rufang's tearful expression and quickly changed the subject. "I just heard you talk about this yesterday. Why don't you share it with me, your sister?"

"Look, I was so curious that I couldn't sleep all night. I even got two blisters at the corners of my mouth."

Aunt Lan deliberately exaggerated what she said, and Guo Rufang was amused and her attention was successfully diverted.

"Actually, it's not really a back-up plan. I just did a little trickery," Guo Rufang said modestly. "After all, after all these years, we should have two familiar people in Jincheng."

She suggested, "Why don't we go and take a look?"

Everyone's eyes lit up. Watching a show? They were good at it!

"go!"

On the busy street.

Beside the singing and dancing house, in front of a magnificent building, several burly men were pushing a skinny man with a messy body and red and swollen eyes.

"Get out of here! Why are you gambling when you don't have any money?"

"Get out, get out! We Golden Leopards are not places where just anyone can come."

The skinny guy got up from the ground and rubbed his lower back. "Why are you pushing me? I can walk on my own! And which of your eyes saw that I had no money?"

"Hey, go ask around. Everyone in Jincheng knows that you, Sun Chengli, are divorced. Without your wife to look after you, how can you afford to go out and have fun?"

The man who spoke had a look of disdain on his face, as if Sun Chengli was some gigolo who lived off his wife.

Oh, though, he was.

"You, you, you! Who said I have no money? Did you hear that I got divorced? Didn't you hear that all that bitch's money belonged to me?" Sun Chengli was very arrogant, with his nose in the air.

"Yes, yes, we are not the kind of bad people who would spend our wives' money and then take possession of our ex-wives' money after divorce." The men looked disgusted.

Sun Chengli only felt his cheeks burning, and didn't care about the strange looks from others.

"You, aren't you just workers? When I make a fortune, I'll come after you and fire you all! Just wait and see!"

"Oh, we are so scared. However, since you have money, why don't you settle the bill from last night first?" The leader took out a few pieces of paper from his pocket.

Each piece of paper is a receipt for Sun Chengli's loan.

"Let's get it done. How much silver? I'll go get it right away. To me, it's just a matter of shaking my fingers."

Sun Chengli's arrogance made Mingyue, who was sitting in the carriage, want to tear his mouth apart immediately.

"Okay, five thousand four hundred and eighty-nine taels, you can just give me five thousand five hundred taels." The man in the gambling house was the same, his expression changed very quickly, and when the money was mentioned, he looked fawning.

"What?! Five thousand five hundred taels? Why don't you just rob me? And you even round it down to zero?! This is a scam! It's a scam!"

"Hey, don't talk nonsense. This is written in black and white, and you signed it yourself. If we take it to the government, there are laws to protect us."

The man seemed to be accustomed to the gambler's questioning. He scratched his ears and said impatiently, "Do you have any money? If not, either leave your hands behind or go to see the authorities."

A pair of hands?

Sun Chengli retreated in fear, but the gambling shop clerk followed closely behind him.

Sun Chengli trembled as he looked at the knife wielded by a certain waiter. "Okay! I'll give you the silver right away. You guys wait while I go back and get it."

"No, we don't believe a shameless person like you who can even betray his wife, let alone us. You will definitely lie to us. We have to follow you home and get it!"

"Okay, okay, don't get excited, let's do it together." Sun Chengli put his hands tightly in his sleeves, fearing that he would lose them accidentally.

Mingyue and the others were sitting in the car, not quite understanding what was happening.

This gambling house is not a formal place in the Great Zhou. As far as Mingyue knows, there are no gambling houses that are set up openly. They are all opened secretly.

Mingyue was a little curious about how luxurious this "Golden Leopard" was. This place was so ostentatious, so didn't the local officials care?

Lantian thought so too.

But he didn't dare say anything and just looked around.

His principles as an official made him want to close this place down.

Just as I was thinking about it, I heard Guo Rufang laugh softly, "Look, my leopard is blooming so beautifully."

Lantian: I don’t agree.

Mingyue: Aunt Fang, are you serious? The only people present are officials. Aren't you teetering on the edge of breaking the law?

Jiang Mengrou also noticed the silence and explained, "Yesterday, Sister Fang couldn't resist me and told me everything."

"This leopard..."
