Mind reading, the emperor saw my fist hard

Chapter 343: The mediation method of the natural master

Welcome Inn,

Luo Shengtian was looking at the current affairs essays seriously. He was already middle-aged and his memory was not as good as before. If he failed to pass the imperial examination this year, his hope for the future would be slim.

Therefore, upon entering the capital, he was not busy attending literary gatherings or experiencing the prosperity of the capital like other candidates. Nothing was more important than passing the imperial examination.

"Boom boom boom!"

Suddenly, there was a sound of you knocking on the door. Before Luo Shengtian could speak, the waiter's voice came from the door:

"Mr. Luo, are there two masters outside looking for you?"

Hearing this, Luo Shengtian stood up impatiently, opened the door, and said to the waiter with a grim expression: "Didn't I tell you? I won't attend the literary gathering, and I don't want to meet any fellow countrymen. Don't bother me unless you have something to do."

"But·····"

The waiter looked back downstairs and said to Luo Shengtian excitedly, "The people who are looking for you are officials in the court. I am a waiter in the capital, so I have a good eye. Although the two masters are wearing casual clothes, they are wearing official boots."

Mr. Official!

Luo Shengtian was at a loss for a moment, and the next moment his eyes suddenly shone with astonishing brightness.

The official came to me, could it be that it was my article...

After a moment of excitement, the light in Luo Shengtian's eyes went out again. He knew the quality of his article. If it could really catch other people's eyes, he would not have come here just now.

Then... he is looking for me to be his son-in-law. This is even more impossible. Not to mention his age, it is obvious that he is already married. It is hard to say whether I can pass the imperial examination.

The officials are not crazy enough to want a juren to be their son-in-law.

Luo Shengtian was thinking about all sorts of things here, which made the waiter very anxious. The officials below were still waiting for his reply.

He stretched out his hand and waved it in front of Luo Shengtian's eyes: "Mr. Luo, Mr. Luo, do you want to meet those two officials or not?"

This sentence finally pulled Luo Shengtian out of his chaotic thoughts, and he said quickly: "See you! See you! I must see you, sir!"

Luo Shengtian turned around, closed the door, and trotted behind the waiter to meet the two officials.

"Greetings, my Lords." Luo Shengtian bowed.

Lord Liu and Lord Wen had something to ask of others, so they naturally did not put on airs. After sending the waiter away, Lord Liu smiled and said, "Master Tiansheng, I have something to ask of you."

My identity is exposed!

Luo Shengtian looked at the two officials in front of him as if he had seen a ghost.

That's impossible. Even my family didn't know that I was pretending to be a natural master, so how did these two officials know?

He couldn't let anyone know that he was playing the role of a natural master. He tried his best to control the expression on his face and let himself show a smile that wasn't too rude. "You two adults have misunderstood. I am a scholar from Guazhou, not a natural master. Natural master is a famous master in Guazhou, who has saved countless lives. You can't say that, otherwise I will be beaten to death by the people of Guazhou."

"Hahaha······"

Lord Liu and Lord Wen burst into laughter. Before they came, they had guessed that this would be Master Tiansheng's reaction.

"Master Tiansheng, please don't deny it. Have you forgotten the inner guards of Daqian?"

Internal guard!

Luo Shengtian's face suddenly turned pale.

It's over! He knew that the money obtained through illegal means was not safe. Even if he distributed all the money except for what he needed to use to the poor people, he was still discovered by the court. Now he was discovered by the court.

Am I going to die?

Luo Shengtian's legs softened and he sat down on the ground. "My lords, my wife doesn't know about this. I hope you can spare my wife and children."

Lord Liu smiled and helped Luo Shengtian up. They came to ask for help, not to punish anyone.

"Master Tiansheng, we have something to ask for your help, Master Tiansheng, please don't panic."

Even though Luo Shengtian was helped up, he was still extremely panicked, and it took him a long time to find his tongue: "Whatever you want to ask for help, as long as I can do it, I will do it."

"I heard that Master Tiansheng is good at mediating family conflicts."

"Ah." Luo Shengtian agreed casually.

It would be great if it could really resolve family conflicts. Lord Liu was really afraid of encountering a liar. Ever since the temples around the capital were checked last year, Lord Liu's first reaction when he heard about the master was that he was a liar, so he had to confirm it.

After hearing the affirmative answer, Lord Liu stood up and said to Luo Shengtian seriously: "There are many conflicts in my family. I want to ask for help from Master Tiansheng. I wonder how Master Tiansheng mediates the conflicts."

This guy really came to ask for help. Luo Shengtian was stunned for a moment before saying, "Actually, I'm not a smart person. When it comes to mediating family conflicts, the main thing is to be true!"

Lord Wen asked in confusion: "What do you mean by the main point is the truth?"

Luo Shengtian thought for a moment and said to Lord Luo: "Just like the mediation case that made me famous, weren't the client's mother and his wife getting along? I asked the rich businessman to go home, pretend to divorce his wife, and then marry the official lady as his mother wished. Of course, the official lady was pretended by someone else."

"The daughter of an official family married a rich businessman. How could she have a good temper? Then the mother of the rich businessman experienced what it means to have no way of speaking out. In less than a year, she begged the rich businessman to divorce the daughter of an official family."

"The rich businessman obeyed his mother's wishes and took the official's daughter on leave and brought his former wife back. This time, the rich businessman's mother looked at this former daughter-in-law with favor, and the matter was resolved in this way."

"That's it!"

"That's it!"

Lord Liu and Lord Wen said in unison.

"That's it." Luo Shengtian replied nervously.

"It's solved so easily." Lord Liu said with some disbelief.

"Shouldn't you be eloquent? At least you should have some other skills!"

Luo Shengtian smiled bitterly: "If I had other skills, I wouldn't cheat people for a little money."

"Then how do I solve my family's problems?" Lord Liu felt a headache when he thought about the things he would face after returning home.

His wife was crying, his mother was crying, and his son was howling. It was wrong for him to comfort anyone.

"Why don't you just make your fake play real?" Luo Shengtian suggested carefully.

"This is the only way." Lord Liu said with a headache.

"Brother Wen, I think my son needs to experience what it means to be in prison."

Lord Wen gritted his teeth and said, "I also think my son should be imprisoned."

After Lord Wen and Lord Liu discussed it, they decided to go back and give their families a jail term.

But before the two of them left, Luo Shengtian called them back hesitantly.

"My Lords, I... I`m...

Seeing the embarrassment and confusion on Luo Shengtian's face, Lord Liu from the Huzhou Qingli Division slapped his head and said, "Sorry, I forgot!"

Holding the silver in his hand, Luo Shengtian almost jumped up, and a blush spread from his face to his neck.

"Sir, I don't want money, I want you to take a look at my article for me."

"Well, that's easy. Just show me your article."

As a candidate going to Beijing to take the imperial examination, it was common practice for him to carry his own essay with him. As soon as Lord Liu finished speaking, Luo Shengtian held up his essay with both hands.

Lord Liu read Luo Shengtian's article and handed it to Lord Wen behind him without saying a word. After Lord Wen also read it, both of them were hesitant to speak.
