"Wow, so this is the legendary water ghost? Why is it like this?"

"You don't understand, you haven't seen it. I heard people from the older generation say that they have seen water ghosts before, and they look like this!"

"Water ghosts, commonly known as water monkeys, are a kind of monkeys that can live on the shore and in the water. They usually like to go into the water to catch fish and eat them, and then kill a few people by the way. Over time, people call this kind of thing Water ghost!"

On the edge of the West Chamber Pavilion, many people in the neighborhood are whispering and talking about stories about water ghosts.

Perhaps people of the older generation have seen the appearance of a water ghost, but this is still a very new thing for those children.

Even many children ran to the front to watch the appearance of the water monkey.

However, the patrolling guards scattered the children away.

The guard said: "Everyone can only look at it from a distance, not up close! After all, things like water ghosts are still very dangerous. It is said that they can even eat human souls. If you get close to it, be careful that it eats your souls! "

"Ah, I want to go back and find my mother!"

With one word from the guard, he successfully scared away all the noisy children.

Li Chengfeng on the side also covered his mouth and laughed.

The guard continued: "Everyone in the neighborhood, today we brought out a water ghost to parade the public. It is the emperor's arrangement! This water ghost is our Eighth Prince of the Tang Dynasty. It was caught from the water of Dongyang Lake. Yes! In addition, it almost killed Princess Changle, so it is a death penalty, and there is no way to live! We were ordered by the emperor to catch the water ghost and parade it in the streets for three days, so that the neighbors in Chang'an City can get to know each other What does the water ghost look like, and then it will be chopped off!"

"Okay, well caught, we must beheaded! Dare to frame our Princess Changle? This water ghost should be killed!"

Among the crowd, some people began to applaud.

Afterwards, a group of people were all hooked, and they were so happy.

"That's right, it's thanks to the Eighth Prince who caught this water ghost from Dongyang Lake in the name of exorcism. Otherwise, I don't know how many people will be killed by this thing!"

"Yes, yes, the Eighth Prince has really done a lot for the country and the people! Not to mention that the food we eat now is all distributed by the Eighth Prince and the Emperor through a bet. Let's say that the Eighth Prince led his troops to protect Youzhou City, this little credit is enough for us to admire him for the rest of our lives!"

"That's right, so the Eighth Prince is an immortal sent from the sky to help the people of the Tang Dynasty, relieve the sufferings of the people, and save those who are in dire straits!"

"Yes, yes, yes, your Excellency is right, and it's over..."

Li Chengfeng also felt a little embarrassed when he heard those people praise him so much.

Unexpectedly, in the eyes of the common people, he has already become a little fairy of Tang Dynasty?

"Hey, isn't this the eighth prince of our Tang Dynasty? My lord, the younger one is called Chen Hang. I wonder if you remember the villain?"

"Ah, this, I don't seem to have much impression!"

Suddenly, the guard recognized that Li Chengfeng at the gate of the West Chamber Pavilion was the Eighth Prince of the Tang Dynasty.

So he exclaimed.

It doesn't matter if you don't say it, once you say it, all the people in Chang'an West Street immediately looked at Li Chengfeng with attention.

"Eighth Prince, my God, is that man really the Eighth Prince of the Tang Dynasty?"

"The Eighth Prince? Is it His Highness the Eighth Prince? Ah...I want to go back and dress up!"

"Hey, what's so interesting about water ghosts? Why don't you go and meet the eighth prince, so you can get to know him!"

"Yes, yes, I have to pick two pumpkins and give them to the Eighth Prince!"

While talking, the group of common people ran towards Li Chengfeng quickly.

Each of them held something in their hands and wanted to give it to Li Chengfeng.

For example, elderly grandparents took some cloth and grain and gave them to Li Chengfeng, hoping that Li Chengfeng would accept them.

And some other young girls who had just begun to fall in love gave Li Chengfeng a hairpin and a package. They hoped that Li Chengfeng would take a fancy to them and write back.

Li Chengfeng originally didn't want to accept their things, but these ordinary people were too enthusiastic.

So Li Chengfeng reluctantly asked Fan Meng to accept it.

And those hairpins were taken away by Li Lizhi.

Li Lizhi didn't intend to return it to Li Chengfeng, because Li Lizhi felt that Li Chengfeng was still too young, and it was best not to talk about those romantic things.

But Li Chengfeng didn't really care too much, so he simply let Li Lizhi hold it!

"The eighth prince, the emperor ordered us to take the water ghost to parade through the streets, so I won't accompany you any longer!"

"Okay, let's go first!"

"Yes, Eighth Prince!"

After finishing speaking, the group of guards continued to move forward with the water ghost.

They did this just to let the people of Chang'an Avenue know about the appearance and harm of water ghosts.

Tell them to be more careful at Dongyang Lake in the future. If they see something like a water ghost, don't touch it!

After a while, the crowd dispersed.

The entire entrance of the attic in the west wing was filled with items, large and small, more or less, given to Li Chengfeng by common people.

Li Chengfeng was very helpless about this, he didn't lack these things at all, but this was the kindness of the common people, how could he refuse.

Simply, Li Chengfeng took Fan Meng and put them all in the attic of the West Wing.

Li Lizhi's complexion has returned to blood, compared to her paleness in the early morning, she looks much more energetic at this moment~www.mtlnovel.com~ Just as Li Chengfeng took Li Lizhi's pulse to see if she had recovered from her cold.

At this time, a man dressed in the clothes of a high-ranking court official hurried in from the door of the West Chamber Pavilion.

The person who came was none other than Wei Zheng, Prime Minister of the Tang Dynasty.

"Huh? Prime Minister Wei Zheng? Long time no see, why are you here?"

Li Chengfeng looked at Wei Zheng with a smile.

Seeing that Wei Zheng's face was a little panicked, he waved his hands and said, "Hey, don't mention the Eighth Prince, the refugees from Liangzhou City have made trouble at the foot of Chang'an City, and they can't be stopped? Didn't I hurry up and call someone out? Shall I inform the emperor? I am thirsty on the way, come to the West Chamber Pavilion to beg for saliva!"

"Oh, water, bring water for Prime Minister Wei Zheng to drink!"

Li Chengfeng beckoned, and Fan Meng quickly brought Wei Zheng a bowl of tea.

After Wei Zheng drank it all in one gulp, he wiped the water from the corner of his mouth, and said, "Eighth prince, you don't know something. Those refugees said that the emperor didn't distribute food to them at all. They came to Chang'an City from starvation and cold all the way. , just to ask the emperor for an explanation! It's all over now, we can't stop them!

"Refugees in Liangzhou City? How could this be? My father didn't distribute food according to the population. Logically speaking, every population in every city can get enough food, right?"

"Yeah, so the veteran also feels very depressed? You mean those refugees, we can't beat them, right? After all, they are the common people of Datang!" Wei Zheng said painstakingly.
