Chapter XVII
Putting aside the teacup, Mu Qing said, "Mr. Deng, can I buy a copy of the newspaper?" ”
I thought that this person would not agree, but Deng Yuanshan agreed: "I have finished reading this here anyway, you can take it, but don't give it to others." ”
"Good!" I didn't expect Deng Yuanshan to be so refreshing, but Mu Qing also knew in his heart that this person would give it to him if he found that there was nothing confidential after reading and researching it.
Something is better than nothing, and the first newspaper you saw in ancient times was always very rare.
With ten taels of silver and a newspaper that was not too thick, Mu Qing said goodbye to Deng Yuanshan and went home. Annu had already cooked the meal and waited for Mu Qing to come back with a veil. Seeing Mu Qing enter the door, he hurriedly went to the kitchen to bring out the rice that was warm in the pot, but when he returned to the house, he saw Mu Qing holding a piece of paper full of words and looking carefully.
The paper is so large that it takes two hands to hold it. Mu Qing's posture is similar to the posture when he read the newspaper in his previous life, if it weren't too unelegant, I'm afraid even Erlang's legs would be cocked.
Seeing Annu coming back, Mu Qing smiled and said, "We have an extra ten taels of silver to spend, you can save it, but don't move it recently." He didn't know Deng Yuanshan's thoughts, and this money was not easy to use at the moment.
Ten taels of silver is definitely a big temptation, and Annu's eyes lit up when he heard it. Although Mu Qing said that the silver could not be spent at the moment, he felt comfortable holding it in his hand, so Annu took the silver ingot, put it in the palm of his hand and looked left and right, and then carefully carried it into his arms.
was amused by Annu's rare appearance, but Mu Qing also strengthened his great ambition in his heart, "In the future, I must let this little money fan count the money and count the cramps".
When I reopened the newspaper, it seemed that the room was quiet again.
Seeing that Mu Qing was looking carefully, Annu didn't speak, poured the two bowls of rice on the table back into the pot, wiped his hands clean, and after returning to the room, he also came to Mu You's side and looked at the paper in his hand.
There are many words on it, and Annu is now half a scholar, and there are no rare words on it, so it is naturally effortless to read. Looking at them one by one, some say that it rains heavily in the capital and pay attention to disaster prevention, and there are also those who say that a certain imperial history has committed the emperor's taboo and was pulled out to play the board.
And at the bottom, there was one, only one sentence made Anu find that Mu Qing's eyes were glued to it and looked at it for a long time.
'Li Qianyu, the sixth son of the emperor, left Jingshi on the third day of the ninth month and returned to the fiefdom. ’
Annu was watching, and suddenly, Mu Qing closed the newspaper and slapped it on the table.
Annu was startled, looked up, but saw that Mu Qing had no expression on his face, only the corners of his mouth twitched slightly, looking a little ...... Scary.
"Master...... You, are you alright? ”
An Nu's voice was a little cautious, but Mu Qing closed his eyes and tightened the fist on his knees, tightened and tightened, and it took a long time to open his eyes.
He had waited so long, if he hadn't had an extra heart to ask for a copy of the mansion today, I'm afraid he would have missed it.
Li Qianyu.
The current Zhuang Wangye, the future Emperor Wu.
The reason for this demotion to the fief Mu Qing is clear, on the surface, it is because Li Qianyu risked the disapproval of the world, and wrote a letter to request the opening of the sea to ban the taboo, and was attacked by the courtiers and defeated, but in fact, it was because the eldest prince was afraid of Li Qianyu's increasingly prominent reputation so he framed him for the matter of men and women, and the emperor in order to protect the eldest son of the emperor, even though he knew that his sixth son was not at fault, he still belittled him and returned to the fief.
Perhaps, in the emperor's view, derogatory is already the lightest and lightest way.
But for the current Li Qianyu, even if he is claustrophobic, as long as he is in the Jingshi, he naturally has a way to get out of trouble. And leaving the capital is the strictest punishment.
It was a punishment for Li Qianyu, but for Mu Qing, this was an opportunity, which was rare in a lifetime.
Mu Qing leaned on the back of the chair and pondered for a long time, and finally, he opened his eyes, looked at Annu and said slowly: "Annu, go and pack your things." We went to Cuihua Mountain in the west, I'm afraid it would take several days. ”
"What are you doing in Cuihua Mountain?"
Mu Qing pursed his lips and said lightly: "Wait for a future." ”
Without much explanation with Annu, the two of them hastily ate a few bites of food, put the rest in the box and took it away, and wrapped the dry food and meat that were easy to store and carry in the kitchen and put them in the box, and carried them on their backs, Mu Qing took Annu out of the house overnight and went all the way to the west.
Mu Qing actually doesn't have many advantages over others, even if he comes from modern times, but the skills that the protagonist in the time-traveling novel, such as making glass and making firearms, are unknown to him, a liberal arts student.
What he can rely on is his own memory and familiarity with the original work.
Cuihua Mountain is located in the west of Guizhou City, about 20 kilometers away from Guizhou City.
And this place, the reason why Mu Qing remembers it clearly is because in the original book, the unlucky Li Qianyu was assassinated by an assassin sent by the eldest prince here, but was saved by the guard Lan Ruo next to him.
The important thing is that the place where the whole thing happened is the summit pavilion on Cuihua Mountain.
Wealth and danger are sought, this sentence is not wrong at all.
The reason why Mu Qing chose to come to Guizhou was so that he could meet the final victor in the original book, Li Qianyu, in advance. He wants to take the imperial examination, become an official, throw away the hat of an illegitimate child and become a man, and the fastest way is to be in the emperor's heart.
Jane is in the heart of the emperor, four words, it is easy to say, but it can really make the emperor who is respected by the Ninety-Five and the emperor who is familiar with the height and cold, how easy it is to say.
However, if this emperor is not an emperor yet, but just a prince who is not liked or valued, then it is much easier to do these four words. And Mu Qing was 100% convinced that Li Qianyu could definitely sit in that seat, so he was willing to take risks.
There is never anything accidental in the world, and some seemingly accidental things have their inevitability, either out of nature or premeditated.
Mu Qing prepared, planned and premeditated to create an accident.
It was also very dark, and Mu Qing picked a small path to walk, making it more and more quiet at night.
"Master, Cuihua Mountain is far away, do you want to rent a car?" An Nu pulled Mu Qing's arm tightly, he was fine, but he was worried that Mu Qing would not be able to go that far.
Mu Qing shook his head, tired and tired, as long as he was safe.
This time I went to block the future emperor, and I had to do it quietly, quietly, and without leaving any evidence. If in the future, Li Qianyu, who was suspicious and gloomy in the original book, found out the clues, so that he could see that he did it on purpose, Mu Qing thought, the ruthless man who dared to kill his father and brother, maybe he would not be able to relieve his old man if he died a hundred times.
The whole process was on foot, and he didn't tell anyone, not even Deng Yuanshan. Thinking that the person has been busy with book printing and drama recently, there is nothing to come to him, even if he comes, as long as he says that he is going to travel in the future, it will make sense if he wants to come.
There were many people coming and going in Guizhou City, and the two half-grown children Mu Qing and An Nu did not attract the attention of the officers and soldiers guarding the city. Mu Qing said that the two of them were out of the city to visit relatives, and the soldiers guarding the city checked the boxes they were carrying, and saw that there was only some food and clothes in them, so they let them out of the city.
Out of the city gate, Mu Qing and Annu went all the way to the west, and the two figures quickly melted into the night.
