Chapter 353: Unreasonable charges(1/3)
The news that Zhang Lu had killed Liu Zhang had slowly spread. Now Liu Bei, who was near Sichuan and Shu, also heard the news, and his mood was particularly complicated. According to the news he got, it was Cao Wei's army who sent troops together.
If this happens, wouldn't he have no chance at all?
Although he is called Uncle Liu Huang, what is the use of this title?
Now that the world is in chaos, virtuous people will live there.
On this day, Liu Bei kept drinking wine in the hotel.
At night, while staying in the inn, he was thinking about his next plan.
Suddenly, the sky became gloomy and the wind suddenly blew.
When he went to close the window, a gust of wind blew suddenly, causing his body to sway and almost fall.
Then, a lot of raindrops fell.
He finally closed the window.
He felt that his current situation was like this ghost weather, full of wind and rain.
Lying in bed, he couldn't sleep. He suddenly thought of Guan Yu.
It is said that Guan Yu has now taken root in Youzhou, and he is still worried about it.
Is Guan Yu just playing along with Xi Yu for the time being, or is he really tempted by the high-ranking official Houlu?
He suddenly wanted to see Guan Yu, and he would go to Youzhou tomorrow to have a good talk with him.
On the other side, Wenxuan, who lives in the inn, has been thinking about how to get close to Xiyu.
If that doesn't work, use the most primitive method, which is to write a letter.
He told Xi Yu that he was also a time traveler, but after thinking about it, something felt wrong.
Just today while having dinner, Wen Xiaocui specifically asked, why must we meet Xi Yu?
I just want to test what the lady thinks.
Are you really interested in Xi Yu in terms of the relationship between a man and a woman?
But Wenxuan did not answer directly.
Early the next morning, Wenxuan got up.
Wen Xiaocui asked: "Miss, do you want to play outside for a while today?"
"You girl, haven't you always disliked playing outside? Why did you take the initiative to go outside today?"
"Because I saw that the people in Youzhou live and work in peace and contentment, it's very good, so I had the desire to visit."
"Okay, let's just stroll around casually."
While two people were strolling around, there were two old women walking in front of them.
"I heard that the Buddha there is particularly efficacious at the Longhua Temple in front of me. I want to go there and pay my respects. I hope my old man's illness will get better soon."
"Yes, you were right to go there."
The two of them walked quickly.
Wen Xiaocui then said: "Master, why don't we go and take a look."
Wenxuan nodded. Before he traveled through time, he had always believed in Buddhism.
When the two women arrived at Longhua Temple, they happened to see Ouyang Linlin coming with Xiao Hong on her bicycle.
Wen Xiaocui felt particularly envious.
"Sir, I never thought this young lady could ride a bicycle so well."
Wenxuan nodded and said nothing.
But she was thinking, if it were me riding, I would ride better than her.
And soon, the four people walked into the temple together.
This temple is very big.
And there are several futons, so four people can kneel down without being affected in any way.
And the strange thing is that when they finished worshiping the Buddha, they also stood up at the same time, as if they came together.
Xiaohong suddenly became vigilant.
Could these two men be targeting them?
Therefore, she looked at the two people with very unfriendly eyes.
Ouyang Linlin didn't pay attention at first, but suddenly she saw the look in her eyes and understood what was going on, so she motioned for her not to mind her own business.
The four of them walked out together and suddenly saw two soldiers standing guard at the gate of the temple.
Strangely, there were no soldiers here when we first arrived.
But just as two dignitaries entered the temple, the two soldiers asked them to pay.
"Why should we pay? We usually worship Buddha here. Is there any way to pay?"
"It used to be the past, but now we have to pay. We collect it for the opera. Recently, the Western Workers are going to war, and they need to increase military expenditures, so those who come to worship Buddha must donate."
The dignitaries who came looked at each other, how could they not have heard of such a thing?
"When did this happen?" one person asked.
"Just this morning, the opera master just issued an order. Do you have any doubts?"
Moreover, the soldier specifically mentioned a certain amount, and the dignitary didn't care about the money, so he paid it in the end.
Wen Xiaocui said to Wenxuan in a low voice: "I didn't expect that Xiyu is also a blackmailer. Miss, it's useless for you to think so highly of him."
Wenxuan did not speak.
But Ouyang Linlin said: "How come I don't know about this?"
The two soldiers turned their heads and saw her immediately.
One of them said: "Fortunately, you came early. Our brothers were just standing guard here. If you came a little later, you would naturally have to pay."
Ouyang Linlin put her hands on her waist and asked, when was this order given and why didn't she know?
"You little girl? What do you mean by what you said? Did the actor still tell you after he gave an order?"
Those dignitaries felt grateful when they saw Ouyang Linlin upholding justice for them.
However, she advised Ouyang Linlin not to say anything.
They can still afford this small amount of money.
The soldiers said that not only do temples charge fees, but other local public places also charge fees.
All this is to increase military spending.
Xi Yu was very kind to the people, so it was normal for the people to repay him a little.
At the same time, they accused Ouyang Linlin of being so heartless.
"It seems that you are also a young lady from a rich family. If the actor hadn't conquered the country, you might have been beaten away by others, and your property might have become someone else's. Don't you have any gratitude to the actor?"
Ouyang Linlin shivered with anger, actually giving herself such a big label.
Wen Xuan was also very curious and stood aside, although Wen Xiaocui hoped that she would leave quickly.
"Don't talk nonsense here. Everyone has seen the contribution the actor has made to everyone, but the little girl believes that the actor will never be such a person. He will not send people to collect people's money without permission."
Ouyang Linlin fought to the death, and he didn't know when to start, since she trusted Xi Yu so much.
Xiyu's image in her heart has become bigger and bigger.
"Smelly girl, it seems you are seeking death." The two soldiers prepared to take action.
Ouyang Linlin said: "You try to touch me. If the actor finds out, I will be careful to peel off your skin."
The two soldiers immediately took their hands back. From what this girl meant, does she know Xi Yu?
"Stinky girl, what do you mean by that?"
"Why, don't you dare?"
"What do you mean? Do you really know the actor?" A soldier asked tentatively.
Before Ouyang Linlin could speak, Xiaohong pointed at the bicycle and said, "You should know what this is, right?"
"Of course we know each other, this is a bicycle."
"It's good to know that bicycles are produced in our Ouyang family, and she is the eldest daughter of the Ouyang family."
After hearing this, the two soldiers were a little frightened.
But Wenxuan felt very happy.
I originally planned to meet Xi Yu, but now I passed the Miss Ouyang family, didn't it come naturally?
"So I want to ask, is this really what the actor meant?"
