Spare Me, Great Lord! Chapter 957 – Plant a Spy

Chapter 957: Plant a Spy

To be honest, for Lu Shu, there were no benefits that were worth selling his body for, even the Master Realm.

Sun Zhongyang waved his hand and rejected. “I dislike those who sell their body for some benefit the most. Are there any other slaves?”

The manager laughed in disdain. “I will bring a few other slaves. But you must understand that these are the best slaves. They typically have their own reasons for coming to the market. Roamers have no right to enter.”

“I mean, do you have any…” Sun Zhongyang heistated. “Good looking slaves who are of excellent quality? It would be best if they are well-educated. Even better if they understand the poems of the king.”

When Sun Zhongyang said this, the manager understood.

Suddenly, Lu Shu was speechless. So the palace compared these kinds of slaves… there was no difference with that on Earth, where concubines were compared.

Lu Shu felt that there was nothing attractive about these slaves… wait, why did you bring male slaves…

This time, the manager brought more than ten slaves. Half of them were male. Lu Shu suddenly realized that the palace geniuses beside Sun Zhongyang were suddenly very excited…

He really could not understand this world.

Lu Xiaoyu glanced at Lu Shu. “How about them?”

Lu Shu said with a sense of justice, “I dislike those who sell their body for some benefit the most.”

The manager glanced at him and said to Sun Zhongyang, “They are talented in the reading of the king’s poems. Do you want them to perform for you?”

Sun Zhongyang said excitedly, “Let me listen to one or two poems of the king.”

Lu Shu thought. Were you really a young man who was interested in literature and art? You do not seem like one at all!

But at that moment, a beautiful female slave wearing a green dress said in a dignified manner, “I heard you say that you dislike those who sell their bodies for some benefit the most. But you might have misunderstood. In this courtyard, not only do masters choose slaves, slaves also choose their masters. It is easy for you to make us memorise the poems of the king. But do you know how we feel wronged to submit ourselves to you?”

Lu Shu was dumbfounded. The slaves here dared to speak in such a manner? Were there still many things about this world that he did not know?

Or had Zhang Weiyu been right? He had said that the slaves who had knowledge and could become teachers were abused by their slave owners, but were also respected by their owners.

Lu Shu realized that Sun Zhongyang and the rest did not slap this lady in a rage. On the contrary, they seemed to be deep in thought.

Lu Xiaoyu said in a low and cold tone, “It’s just a sales strategy.”

Suddenly, Sun Zhongyang said in a clear voice, “How about this? Let’s play a game! We will each say a line of the king’s poems. This way, we can clearly see how much everyone knows! I’ll go first. You live where the Yangtze begins ¹ !”

The person him smiled and continued. “I live where the Yangtze ends.”

“I long for you day after day, yet we cannot meet,” said someone else.

To Lu Shu’s shock, he realized that it was now his turn. What was the next line?

Everyone looked at Lu Shu. Lu Shu paused for two seconds. “We build a new village together?”

“From Sun Zhongyang’s distress, +666!”

“From Mo Xiaoya’s distress, +666!”

“From…”

Sun Zhongyang felt sick. Others share the water from the Yangtze river, but you built a new village? What in the world was that?!

The originally civilized atmosphere had suddenly been destroyed.

Lu Shu also realized that everyone’s expressions had darkened. He coughed twice. “Ahem. Let’s go back to the trade caravan. Have fun, all of you.”

There was really no meaning to this slave market. Thus, Lu Shu decided that he would no longer stay here. He could not play along with what these refined men like to play.

But at that moment, the lady in a green dress said, “If you are willing, I am willing to become your slave.”

Lu Shu pointed to himself. “Me?”

The lady in a green dress nodded her head. “That’s right.”

Lu Shu was dumbfounded. He asked, “Did you eat too much for lunch…?”

“From Xu Mujun’s distress, +199!”

Sun Zhongyang and the rest were dumbfounded as well. Just now, she seemed as if she looked down on Lu Shu. But now, she asked him whether he was willing to take her as his slave out of her own initiative. Were you serious? To Lu Shu and the rest, based on Lu Shu’s “build a new village together”, it was not an understatement to call him a country bumpkin…

Sun Zhongyang could not understand. “Lady, we have various handsome young men here. Some of us are rich, some of us have strength, and some of us have power…”

Before he could finish speaking, Xu Mujun suddenly said, “I picked the most good-looking one.”

“From Sun Zhongyang’s distress…”

Lu Xiaoyu suddenly pondered. This world was very strange. On Earth, although Lu Shu had fine features, he could not be considered as good looking. Only fools like Coral would call Lu Shu as such.

Thus, Lu Xiaoyu thought about it. Was there something wrong with the appreciation of beauty in this world? Or was there something wrong with Lu Shu’s identity? Why was everyone forced to think that Lu Shu was good looking?

If there was actually something wrong with Lu Shu’s identity, where would they find the answer to their question?

Lu Xiaoyu asked Lu Shu in a small voice, “Do you think that there’s something strange here?”

Lu Shu asked curiously. “What’s strange?”

Lu Xiaoyu thought about it and said, “Why does everyone here think that you’re good looking?”

Lu Shu paused for two seconds. “Because I really am?”

“From Lu Xiaoyu’s distress, +666!”

Lu Xiaoyu coldly looked at Lu Shu. “You can really boast. My train of thought is all over the place now.”

Lu Shu looked at Xu Mujun and said in an earnest tone, “Lady, I have no money to buy you. I still have other uses for my money.”

No money? Sun Zhongyang and the rest looked at Lu Shu. Even Mo Xioaoya was surprised. All the buyers they had seen liked to boast in hopes of getting their attention. But this young man had confessed his financial state. He even made others feel more comfortable and ensured that they had a peace of mind.

Xu Mujun said calmly, “I have some money. If you are willing, my money will be yours.”

At that moment… Lu Shu was touched…

Sun Zhongyang and the rest were dumbfounded. Was she selling herself as a slave, or was she buying a master? They could not understand this situation!

Lu Xiaoyu was dumbfounded as well. At first, she had thought that Xu Mujun had acted in a prideful manner as a means to get sales. But now, it seemed as if this was not the case. She said to Lu Shu, “She definitely has some plans!”

Lu Shu was very calm. “That’s right. I’ve seen it as well. She is targeting my looks.”

At that moment, Wen Zaifou was shouting abuses in the imperial palace. “No way! Why is it so difficult to plant someone beside him?! He must be crazy!”
