Wait, it’s priceless!
Lu Bei’s eyes lit up, he took the Qiankun Ring and put it into his sleeve. He handed a banknote to Zhu Gengqi’s hand: “Thank you, Master Zhu. I’m tired of traveling and traveling. It’s just a small thing. Nothing else. You can take it for your own pleasure.”
“I can’t do it, I can’t do it, why is this so embarrassing?”
“Nothing to be embarrassed about, just a little money for tea, that’s all.”
The two of them pushed Tai Chi back and forth, and Zhu Gengqi shook his head repeatedly. It was not that he was pretending, but that he really had no intention of accepting the money.
In the end, due to insufficient foundation and lack of masculinity, he was no longer able to compete with Master Lu’s basic strength of up to five thousand, and was forced to accept the banknote.
Before putting it into the sleeves, I habitually glanced out of the corner of my eye.
Ten taels of silver notes.
Zhu Gengqi:
Are you going to use this to distract His Majesty?
Why is tea so cheap for only ten taels of silver?
Zhu Gengqi’s hand holding the bank note trembled slightly, as he wanted to throw the dirty money in Lu Bei’s face. He had often gone out of the palace to announce decrees, but he had never seen someone like this.
In fact, Zhu Gengqi didn’t care whether he was given more or less. Anyway, after returning home, he would have to hand it over to his godfather, and he would be paid a sum of money for running errands. Most of it would be used as His Majesty’s small treasury, and there were eyes from the Xuanyin Division in the honor guard, so he had neither the guts nor the ability to deduct it.
The problem is, this is a slap in the emperor’s face!
Zhu Gengqi took a deep breath and pondered over it. Thinking on the bright side, at least he gained some experience during this trip. He really didn’t know before that there were banknotes with a denomination of ten taels in circulation in Wuzhou market.
In the honor guard, two warriors came forward holding a red cloth tray. Zhu Gengqi opened the red cloth, handed over the gold belt and imperial sword, and said a few polite words to Lu Bei before leaving.
“Master Zhu, please don’t leave. You will be tired from the journey. At least stay for a meal.”
Zhu Gengqi shook his head slightly. He did have such a plan, but he had learned from the past experience of ten taels of silver, and was afraid that Lu Bei would bring a few bowls of paste.
By then, it will be difficult for him to do it.
If you eat, Your Majesty’s face will be tarnished; if you don’t eat, you will offend someone in Lu, and you will become a completely different person.
“Who is that? You are the one. Go to Sijing Peak to find Master Ding. Tell him that a distinguished guest from the Tian family is coming. Let him kill the pigs and geese quickly and buy two tables with the characteristics of Sanqing Peak.” Lu Bei picked one up and took a look.
