Chapter 549: Selfish Casting Lots is Self-defeating


Several government officials outside the door responded in unison and did not go in immediately.

Instead, they talked casually.

"It seems that my lord has another important task to entrust to everyone," a yamen servant said quietly.

"No, otherwise it would be so mysterious."

Another Yamen servant couldn't help but sigh.

"Every time, he relies on his sharp-tongued ideas to save himself in front of the adults.

This time, everyone gives him a chance to perform alone.

It is also a token of our brothers' gratitude that we give him all this good thing."

Another yamen officer suggested.

The other officials nodded and agreed unanimously.

The sharp-mouthed yamen servant was happy and replied proudly.

"You guys have some conscience."

"What are you muttering about outside the door?"

Hou Shengjue shouted in the living room, interrupting the murmurs of the government officials.

Several government officials hurriedly pushed open the door of the living room and stood neatly in a row in front of Hou Shengjue.

"I am willing to do my best for you," the officials said in unison.

Marquis Shengjue smiled slightly and his attitude was very kind.

"It's very good that you brothers have been following me for many years.

Although I am indeed a bit harsh on you on weekdays, I still think highly of you."

"The adults' love for the children is clearly remembered in their hearts."

The sharp-mouthed Yamen servant was the first to flatter Hou Shengjue.

"I won't stop talking about my high-sounding words today.

At the moment, I have an important thing that needs one person to do.

After the task is completed, I will be greatly rewarded.

For the sake of fairness, I will ask everyone to draw lots.

I don't know if you think it is appropriate.

"Hou Shengjue calmly explained to the officials slowly.

Jianzui Yamen looked at the other Yamenmen, and the others immediately understood what Jianzui meant.

"Sir, the decision of drawing lots is very fair.

We have no objections," several government officials replied in unison.

Hou Shengjue nodded and asked the servant to bring a plate.

The officials saw that there were several small wine cups upside down on the plate.

"You have all seen that in these wine cups, there are notes that I have written in advance.

The person who draws the note will take on the important task," Hou Shengjue said seriously.

Several government officials nodded, and each of them gave Jian Zui a wink.

Because they had reached a tacit understanding before entering the door, this great opportunity to perform alone was given to Jianzui.

As long as any one of the group catches the note with "Leave a message" written on it, it must be exchanged with the note drawn by the sharp beak.

The sharp-mouthed yamen servant was determined to win.

When Marquis Shengjue signaled his servants to bring the plates in front of the yamen servants, he could no longer hold his hands.

"What are you in a hurry for?"

Hou Shengjue kept winking at the sharp-mouthed Yamen servant.

The sharp-mouthed yamen servant felt secretly happy.

Based on his understanding of Hou Shengjue over the years, he immediately understood that the note on the wine cup had a hidden meaning.

"Your Majesty, you really take good care of me.

There is a message written on this note.

Fortunately, I am smart, otherwise this good job would have fallen on someone else."

The sharp-mouthed yamen officer thought more and more beautifully in his heart, and watched Hou Shengjue keep smiling. .

What puzzled the other government officials was that the more he smiled at Hou Shengjue, the more strange his expression became, and he was so anxious that he was sweating profusely.

"You have to think clearly," Hou Shengjue reminded with a straight face.

At this time, the sharp-mouthed yamen servant thought that Hou Shengjue was instructing him in reverse.

He casually grabbed a wine cup with a note on it and slowly took out the note from the wine cup.

Hou Shengjue's face suddenly turned green, like a mute eating Coptis chinensis.

He couldn't express his pain and shook his head repeatedly.

Several other government officials gathered around him with smiles, clamoring to see the note in the hand of the sharp-mouthed government official.

"How come, let us see what we are smoking?"

The sharp-mouthed yamen officer picked up a treasure and replied with a proud smile.

"I am very lucky.

I can get the lottery without your help."

As he spoke, he showed off the note in his hand to everyone.

Several government officials didn't know the mystery in the note, and they all thought that Sharp Mouth had brought good luck, and all of them couldn't help but sigh.

"Oh, this man is so lucky.

He's really lucky.

He can't stop him even if he wants to."

A Yamen servant said unhurriedly.

"No, you don't need help from others, you have God's help," another government official even said with an envious look.

The Marquis Shengjue on the side was in a dilemma at this time.

It was originally a method to prevent the sharp-tongued yamen from drawing the note with the word "leave" written on it.

Unexpectedly, it turned out to be a clever mistake.

The flawless and perfect plan was not only corrupted by greedy His sharp mouth may cause chaos, and may expose his conspiracy, chilling the hearts of his other subordinates.

"Have you shouted enough?

Now that the candidate has been determined, I will follow the arrangement of God's will."

Hou Shengjue said as he motioned to the servants to take down the lot-drawing plate.

Seeing Hou Shengjue's sudden expression of displeasure, the government officials quickly calmed down.

"Sir, if I get the lottery, I will do my best to satisfy you," the sharp-mouthed yamen officer assured Hou Shengjue with a smile.

Several other government officials also followed suit.

"He is the most suitable candidate among our brothers for this matter, sir, please rest assured."

What they didn't expect was that instead of being recognized by Marquis Shengjue, their few kind words were instead met with an angry rebuke from Marquis Shengjue.

"Shut up, please.

If you don't speak, no one will treat you as mute," Hou Shengjue cursed angrily.

The several government servants who didn't know where they were looked at each other and said nothing for a moment.

Everyone murmured secretly in their hearts.

"My lord, what happened today is really strange."

"Obviously the good thing was caught by the sharp mouth of the red man next to him, but he still looked angry, as if someone had stolen his family's gold."

The sharp-mouthed yamen servant still foolishly thought that Hou Shengjue was continuing to act, and he became increasingly happy, so he pretended to be calm and took the initiative to report to Hou Shengjue.

"If you have any instructions, sir, please feel free to do so."

Hou Shengjue looked at his sharp mouth, which was full of joy and pretended to be calm, and kept pointing at him, but he couldn't say a word.

"Sir, what's wrong with you?

Are you feeling uncomfortable somewhere?"

Hou Shengjue held it in for a long time, sighed, and shook his head helplessly.

"I feel sorry for you" "Ah, I feel sorry for you, go and ask the doctor right away," the sharp-mouthed yamen official said hurriedly.

"No, I don't mind telling them to step back.

You can follow me to Lu Xiashi's place," Hou Shengjue ordered calmly.

The sharp-mouthed yamen servant immediately recalled the selection matter mentioned by Lu Daohong before, and he couldn't help but feel overjoyed.

"It turns out that Sir asked me to be sent by Lu Daohong.

Lu Daohong is very powerful.

Maybe he can subdue Qingfeng this time.

Then wouldn't I have made a great contribution?"

Just like that, Jianzui smiled as he thought about it, followed Hou Shengjue, and walked to the backyard with great swagger.
