Wang Yunshu had just finished his second round with the two courtesans of Peach Cheeks House. His body was already like an arrow at the end of its flight. He was trembling as he knelt, but he could only try his best not to move. He was afraid that the slightest movement would cause him to be misunderstood as having ill intentions. Fortunately, Hsu Fengnian smiled and said, "Yunshu, I just told Cao Zhun that you and I have a close relationship. Although the loser of the bet last time has to kneel when they meet, you don't have to get addicted to kneeling. Get up, I heard that you're the number one guest here. Aren't you afraid that Peach Cheeks House will look down on you? "
Cao Zhun's mood today was fluctuating between joy and sorrow. According to her thoughts, Wang Yunshu definitely wouldn't be lying there pretending to be a dead dog because his legs suddenly went soft. The only explanation was that he was a young master from Lingzhou. It was hard to say whether he was Wang Yunshu's old friend, but his family background was definitely far superior to Wang Gongcao's in Hwangnam County. If he was a son of an official of the same rank as his father, even if he had been taught an unforgettable lesson, he definitely wouldn't be so submissive to the point of prostrating himself before someone the moment they met. As a little leader, Snowsuit could hide in a daze, but she couldn't. She hurriedly sorted out her thoughts. Apart from the disrespect of sitting on the grey-haired young master's lap and rubbing his buttocks, Cao Zhun could be considered honest. However, she was only a prostitute from Peach Cheeks House. Most of the sons of officials were officials, and most of the sons of generals joined the army. Naturally, there would be rats that dug holes in the ground. However, Hwangnam County definitely had people like her who followed their mother to become prostitutes, but they were definitely few.
Hsu Fengnian didn't pay attention to Wang Yunshu at all. The reason why he remembered this name was because Wang Yunshu's father was not vulgar, Hwangnam County's Merit Officer, Wang Xihua. The Wang family was a big family in Hwangnam County with many ancestral shrines. However, the same family name had different ancestors. There were four famous families: Shuijing Wang Family, Longyi Wang Family, Lingling Su Of Gojoseon Family, and Zijin Wang Family. Administrator Li Gongde was an outsider in Hwangnam County. The reason why he was able to make a fortune was that he was not only the son-in-law of Longyi Wang Family, but also successfully tied together the several big Wang families that were intertwined with each other. If it was said that being an official was a new illness, then the establishment of a family was an old illness that was close to being cured.
Wang Yunshu was quick-witted, or else he wouldn't have been able to survive in Hwangnam County. He immediately understood that His Royal Highness didn't want to reveal his identity, so he hurriedly stood up and dusted his sleeves in a serious manner. Hsu Fengnian stood up and gestured to Cao Zhun to drink. There was wine in the house, but it wasn't good enough to serve Young Master Wang. Cao Zhun wanted to go to the wine cellar to get a few jars of wine that had been sealed for many years, but Hsu Fengnian said that green ants would do. Cao Zhun was stunned and didn't dare to question him, but she still subconsciously glanced at Wang Yunshu. This made Young Master Wang so angry that smoke was coming out of his seven orifices. He silently cursed this little leader for being blind. Wasn't this setting him up? He immediately threw a fierce look at her, telling her not to be nosy. Cao Zhun also knew that she was drawing legs on a snake and hurriedly left. Hsu Fengnian gestured to Wang Yunshu to sit. Wang Yunshu flatteringly shook his head and hurriedly said that standing was more comfortable. Hsu Fengnian still carried a chair for Wang Yunshu and stood by the window. Wang Yunshu laughed dryly as he sat down, feeling as if he was sitting on pins and needles. He recited all the names of the Bodhisattvas, deities, and Buddhas he knew, hoping that this bad-tempered His Royal Highness would not use peaceful means before resorting to force. In Longqing County, even Zhong Hongwu had been dealt with quite a bit, so His Royal Highness could still steam and roast him whenever he wanted. Hsu Fengnian leaned his elbow against the window and asked, "How is Uncle Wang?"
Wang Yunshu swallowed his saliva and nodded. "He's fine, he's fine."
Hsu Fengnian, who had always been amiable towards Wang Yunshu, thought for a moment and smiled. "Uncle Wang comes from a rare scholarly family in Beiliang. In Hwangnam County, his knowledge is high, no less than that of the Prefect Song Yan. It is said that there was once a Wudang Zhenren who observed his physiognomy and gave him a prophecy. What did he say?"
Wang Yunshu said awkwardly, "That unknown old Taoist said that when my father was young, he was addicted to chivalry, riding, and archery. Then he was addicted to the study of scriptures and poems. Then he was addicted to the Old Immortal Huang and the Western Buddhist land. In the end, he returned to being a sage. I reckon that whether or not the Taoist priest came from Wudang is another matter. I've made a fool of myself in front of Your Highness … Young Master Xu. "
Hsu Fengnian shook his head and said, "When I was at Wudang Mountain, I did indeed hear such a thing. That old Taoist priest was fully deserving of his title as a Taoist immortal, the old Supreme Leader Wang Zhonglou."
Wang Yunshu was dumbfounded. To be honest, even the Wang family did not take this prophecy seriously. They only saw it as icing on the cake. However, when his father was young, he did indeed ride a horse, carry a sword, and travel to study. He was full of chivalry. However, now that Wang Gongcao was addicted to Taoism, Wang Yunshu had never seen his father practice martial arts with a sword. He had not even seen his father ride a horse many times. As for his travel experience when he was young, Wang Gongcao had never mentioned it in front of his only son. Wang Yunshu also thought that these rumors, which his father was unwilling to talk about, were just the flattery of busybodies.
