Black Fairy, the master is a female ghost

Everything was as expected. The news that the so-called dragon bones appeared at the Tuya Auction House reached the ears of the prince the next day.

How could the prince tolerate such a thing? He immediately brought the Dragon Guard and several hundred guards to surround the Tuya Auction House.

In the reception hall of the auction house, the prince sat on a comfortable leather chair, looking down at the auction staff who were kneeling on the ground.

He didn't ask about the keel first, but touched the leather chair and asked, "Where did you buy this chair? Why haven't I seen any for sale in Yingzhou City?"

Wu Ya replied, "It was invented by Lord Lu. It's called a sofa. He said it can be made of leather or fabric. Furniture stores in the city can make it to order."

The prince said, "Lu Suifeng is indeed a disciple of the sage. He knows so much."

He changed the subject: "Let's get back to the point. Who gave you the guts to openly auction off dragon bones? Are you planning a rebellion?"

Wu Ya replied, "Your Highness, that's not a dragon bone. It's just that Great Elder Yun Zhongzi is being mysterious. He wants to get some money to donate to Baocheng Prefecture to support our development."

The prince frowned: "What, fake? Did Yun Zhongzi use it to cheat people out of money?"

Wu Ya said, "Every word is true. If you don't believe me, you can ask the Great Elder in person."

The prince pondered for a moment and said, "Even if it's fake, it's wrong for you to use fake goods to deceive people. You are also guilty of disturbing this prince."

He patted the leather sofa and said, "A fine must be imposed as a severe punishment. All proceeds from last night's auction must be handed over to this prince. This will not happen again."

Wu Ya said, "The auction house has donated all the proceeds from last night's auction to the state government."

The prince stood up and asked, "Have you donated it? So quickly?"

Wu Ya gestured to someone nearby: "Show the proof to the Crown Prince."

The man moved forward on his knees and handed a receipt from the state government to the dragon guard.

Longhu took the receipt, took a quick look at it, and handed it to the prince.

The receipt clearly stated the amount of the auction house's donation, and was stamped with the seal of the provincial government and the signature of Lord Lu.

The prince took a look and threw the receipt away: "I want to ask you, where are the fake bones?"

Wu Ya reported, "Your Highness, no one took the bones, so they have been returned to Great Elder Yun Zhongzi."

The prince stroked his chin, where a short beard had grown. "Alright, I'll go ask Yun Zhongzi."

After saying this, he left with the dragon guard.

After the Crown Prince and the Imperial Guards left, Wu Ya breathed a sigh of relief.

Lord Lu is really foresighted. When he came yesterday, he brought her this donation receipt, which really came in handy.

In the yamen, Lu Xunhuan was reviewing documents sent from various places when the prince arrived with his dragon guard.

After entering, he walked straight towards Yun Zhongzi and said, "Great Elder, you are so virtuous and respected, how could you do such a deceitful thing?"

Yun Zhongzi bowed and said, "Your Highness, I wanted to do my part for Baocheng, but apart from being able to produce a bottle of elixir, I have nothing else. So, I tried to get a piece of bone. Unfortunately, no one dared to take a shot at it. My efforts were in vain."

The prince asked, "What about the bones?"

Yun Zhongzi said, "That was a piece of rhino bone I kept after I hunted a rhino in the Devil's Swamp. I didn't sell it last night, so I was disappointed and crushed it into ashes and scattered them."

The prince had nothing to say. Everything had turned into ashes and scattered. Was he going to force Yun Zhongzi to take it out?

That is of course impossible.

He turned his gaze to Lu Xunhuan: "Lord Lu, what are you busy with? You didn't even raise your head when you saw this prince. Is that how you behave?"

At this moment, Lu Xun Huan pretended to be woken up and raised his eyes: "Oh, the prince is here?"

He quickly left his seat and bowed to the Crown Prince: "Your humble servant greets His Royal Highness."

The prince said angrily, "You really don't know that I'm here?"

Lu Xun Huan bowed again and said, "My Lord, what do you want from me?"

The prince rolled his eyes at him and asked, "Are you dissatisfied with me?"

Lu Xun Huan was surprised and asked, "What are you talking about, Prince?"

The Crown Prince said, "I personally arranged the marriage. Judge Zhao's daughter has been living with you for almost two months, and you just left her here without a word. What happened? Did you get it done?"

Lu Xun Huan pretended to be confused and said, "What's the matter?"

The prince scolded, "You bastard, you have to marry her formally. Did you have the wedding?"

Lu Xun Huan pretended to be enlightened again: "Oh, so that's what it is, Prince, I am very busy..."

The prince scolded him, "Shut up! I give you ten days to hold your wedding. Otherwise, you will be resisting my marriage."

Outside the door, Zhao Tongpan was just about to enter the yamen. When he heard the prince's scolding, he hurriedly hid by the door, his heart already filled with joy.

It’s better to be the prince, otherwise, I would have no place to put my old face.

Inside the government office, Lu Xunhuan bowed and said, "Your Highness, I will be inspecting the canal tomorrow. After that, I will also inspect the plank road. After seeing the plank road..."

The prince interrupted him and said, "This prince orders you not to leave Baocheng within ten days. From today on, you must begin preparing for the wedding."

Lu Xun Huan said, "My Lord, I have my own arrangements for the wedding date, so please don't worry about it."

The Crown Prince scolded him, "Asshole! This Crown Prince personally arranged the marriage, and you are so lazy. How can this Crown Prince still have face?"

He called out to the door, "Come here, take Lu Suifeng back to this prince. You are not allowed to leave the house for ten days."

In this way, Lu Xunhuan was very helpless and was escorted back to his residence by a group of guards.

The documents that had not been reviewed were also moved over with the help of the Imperial Guards.

He sat at the table and continued to review.

Zhao Lan asked curiously, "Sir, what happened? Why were you sent home on business?"

Lu Xun Huan picked up his pen and dipped it in ink: "I just said a few words to the Crown Prince, it's okay."

When Zhao Lan heard him talk about contradicting the Crown Prince, she quickly tried to persuade him, "Even if it's a big deal, you can't contradict him. Everything you do for Baocheng requires his support."

Lu Xunhuan said "It's okay" and lowered his head to review the documents again.

Seeing that he had a lot of documents, Zhao Lan didn't bother him anymore. She quickly picked up the teapot and went out to make tea for him.

In the yard, Yun Zhongzi sat under a tree, opened his eyes that had been closed for rest, and waved to Zhao Lan.

Zhao Lan hurried over and saluted, "Grand Elder."

Yun Zhongzi asked quietly, "I'm asking you, do you like Lord Lu?"

Zhao Lan blushed. "He's a disciple of a sage, and a high-ranking official in our Baocheng. To be honest, I'm afraid I'm not worthy of him."

Yun Zhongzi stroked his beard and said, "You, cleaning the yard every day and keeping it spotless, seems quite boring. You can't be so bored. You should use your free time to improve yourself."

Zhao Lan asked in a low voice: "Excuse me, Great Elder, do you want to read more books?"

Yun Zhongzi said, "As for reading, I see you have read quite a bit. Would you like to cultivate immortality? I will teach you."

Zhao Lan was pleasantly surprised and asked, "The Great Elder thinks highly of me?"

Yun Zhongzi pulled out a book from his bosom and said, "This is the secret of our sect's cultivation. Please read it first."

Zhao Lan took the scroll, unfolded it, and took a look. "I'll try it first, and if I don't understand, I'll ask you."

Yun Zhongzi nodded slightly: "Well, go ahead."
