"Fortune telling?"
Shen Zhiyi put down the things, looked up, and was slightly stunned when he saw the two people standing on the other side through the curtain of the veil.
[Oh my god, isn’t this the prince of Goguryeo? The one who just spoke was the translator.]
Her expression suddenly became strange and she quickly lowered her head again.
The Goguryeo prince spoke in the only awkward Chinese he knew.
"It turns out to be a girl. I want to ask you for advice."
"What is that?"
The Goguryeo prince sighed slightly.
"Let's count our fortunes."
[System, this person is probably sick.]
[Host, just make one up. ]
He can't tell fortunes, so who knows what the other person's fortune is like.
Shen Zhiyi had a wooden face and pretended for a while before saying, "You were smooth sailing in the early days, but after your mother passed away, everything went wrong."
The Goguryeo prince's dim eyes seemed to have seen the light, and the girl stopped screaming.
"Master, you are right!"
[It seems like this Goguryeo prince wants to know whether he can go back, but how would I know that?]
"Master, to be honest with you, you can tell from my accent that I am not from Daye."
Shen Zhiyi nodded.
The counselors around the Goguryeo prince wanted to stop the Goguryeo prince.
The Goguryeo prince angrily took the man to the carriage, and when he came back, he continued.
"I come from Goguryeo, which is not too far away. I was framed by my father's current queen, which caused the country to become a vassal state, and I ended up like this."
[You really misunderstood. Your childhood sweetheart did it for you, but ended up running into the old emperor's trap.]
"So Master, I want to ask if I can have a chance to go back. There is a saying in Daye that goes, make a comeback."
Shen Zhiyi was silent for a moment and then said: “Sometimes, timing is very important. When the time comes, you will go back. If the time is not right, there is no need to worry.”
"Master, I understand!"
[System, I think I have the potential to be a fortune teller. That's great.]
The Goguryeo prince bowed devoutly to Shen Zhiyi and prepared to leave.
He turned around and saw a funeral procession dressed in white.
He asked Shen Zhiyi curiously: "Master, I'd like to ask, I saw similar teams many times on the way to Daye, what are they doing?"
Shen Zhiyi smiled evilly and said, “Oh, it’s a wedding.”
The Goguryeo prince nodded thoughtfully: "So this is for a wedding. I think it's better than what I have."
Shen Zhiyi was stunned.
[System, this guy is not planning to take this back to Goguryeo, right? ]
Many years later, the prince who returned to Goguryeo actually brought this custom back to his country, and it has been passed down ever since.
Shen Zhiyi didn't know how much influence his casual joke had.
At this moment, she just wanted to eat, her stomach was growling with hunger.
"Okay, I'm done with you. I'm going to eat now. Bye."
Fearing that someone else might come over, Shen Zhiyi took the bag and went to Dabaolou.
I chose a seat by the window on the second floor.
Every dish here is extremely expensive. Only rich people dare to step into the door of this restaurant.
Shen Zhiyi was not a rich person, so she ordered a dish.
[As expected of a big restaurant, they provide so many side dishes. It’s totally fine to order just one dish. 】
Who would have thought that Dabaolou served her so many dishes.
Shen Zhiyi grabbed a waiter.
“I just ordered one dish!”
"I don't have the money to pay for the extra money, so you can take it back."
The waiter pointed behind Shen Zhiyi.
"It was that young master who ordered this table to be placed."
Shen Zhiyi turned his head, his pupils shrinking slightly.
[What the hell, you stingy guy. ]
The newly appointed Minister of Personnel got used to the title and accepted it with pleasure.
He sat directly opposite Shen Zhiyi, looking at Shen Zhiyi in women's clothing, and jokingly said, "Shen Lang has the same fetish as Jiang Yushi."
Shen Zhiyi, who was covering his face, tilted his head and thought.
[Censor Jiang? Oh, the one who likes to wear women's clothes.]
"cough."
Shen Zhiyi nodded and said, “Yes, yes, what a coincidence.”
"Don't worry, Chen Lang. I won't tell anyone that you wore women's clothes today. But to be honest, when Chen Lang put on women's clothes, he really looked like a girl."
Shen Zhiyi was sweating profusely.
She closed her eyes in despair and said with a stiff face, "A boy and a girl, I used to pretend to be my sister to deceive my mother when I was a child."
"I see. It seems like having a brother or sister is really fun. Unlike me, I am alone."
[System, why do I feel like this stingy guy's words sound weird?]
【Wrong, it’s an illusion. 】
"Does Chen Lang know who is the boss behind this Dabaolou?"
“I don’t know.”
[Who is it? Let me see, it turns out to be the Right Vice Minister of the Ministry of Personnel. Wow, this old man is usually so low-key, it seems that he is making a fortune quietly. I must count how much money is in his private treasury when I have time next time.]
Shen Zhiyi thought back to the menu he had just seen. A plate of stir-fried cabbage cost one tael of silver. If he didn't know, he would have thought he was eating cabbage made of gold.
She lowered her head and looked at the huge table of dishes. She couldn't even imagine how much money it would cost.
"Give me back my son's life. Give me back my son's life."
At this time, there was a noise coming from the door of the restaurant downstairs.
For Shen Zhiyi, who loved to watch the fun, his head stood up as if it had an antenna, and he turned his head, looking straight downstairs.
It was a woman who collapsed and sat on the ground in agony, shouting, "Dabaolou killed my son. Please give me some justice."
Shen Zhiyi stood up excitedly and leaned against the window to try to see more clearly.
The newly appointed Minister of Personnel looked at the table full of dishes, but as he always loved food, he didn't even touch a single bite with his chopsticks.
The shopkeeper of Dabaolou came out quickly after hearing the noise.
"Go, go, go, hurry up and don't come to my Dabaolou to extort money."
"You are so heartless! You killed my son at Dabaolou, and now you want to bully a widow like me."
"Hey, Auntie, we have already explained everything to you. It's all due to your son's health. It has nothing to do with Dabaolou. Hurry up and leave. If you don't leave, we will report it to the police."
[Everyone has their own story.]
Shen Zhiyi turned on the surveillance and began to search through the recent surveillance footage of Dabaolou.
[It turned out that a month ago, this lady's son had saved up money for a long time and brought his mother here for a good meal, but his son died right in front of her.]
【Later, I started to report it to the police, but it was definitely useless.】
Shen Zhiyi sighed slightly. Firstly, the boss behind Dabaolou was the Right Vice Minister of the Ministry of Personnel, which was a very high position. Secondly, Dabaolou paid a lot of taxes every year, and the local government would definitely protect it.
[Let me see what caused this lady's son's death. ]
