Chapter 135: Wu Nian Palace
As mentioned last time, Wang Mu met Xu Fu at the gate of Yixiang Pavilion, because they were from the same world, the two hit it off at first sight and had a very happy conversation.
And Xu Fu also told Wang Mu a shocking news, he was also beaten here by a rebel, and everyone couldn't help but sigh when they talked about the past.
When the banquet was in full swing, the entourage of the Wunian Palace suddenly arrived and told Xu Fu that the city lord had returned to the Wunian Palace, and passed him to the Wunian Palace to discuss matters.
"In that case, I'll miss the company first!" Xu Fu got up and said apologetically.
Wang Mu was happy in his heart, this was a good opportunity for him to get close to the city lord of Qinyou, with Xu Fu's recommendation, at least things should be much easier.
"There's something I want to ask Master Xu for help with." Wang Mu said.
Xu Fu said with a smile: "Brother Wang, if you have something to say, I Xu will definitely do my best to help!" ”
Seeing that Xu Fu was so refreshing, Wang Mu said straight to the point: "I want to ask Lord Xu to take me into the Wunian Palace." ”
Xu Fu asked curiously, "What is Brother Wang doing when he enters Wunian Palace?" Where is the important place of Qinyun City, it is by no means a good place for sightseeing. ”
Wang Mu said: "I have a secret letter from the Demon City Lord to hand over to the Qinyou City Lord, and before leaving, Lord Karina instructed me to hand it over to the Qinyou City Lord. ”
When Xu Fu heard this, he agreed without hesitation, and Nameless and the others went to Wunian Palace with Wang Mu.
The Wunian Palace was not far from here, and after a while, several people arrived outside the Wunian Palace. The Wunian Palace is not as imposing as the Du, and it is a bit shabby in comparison. Of course, the fundamental reason for this is that the city lord of the demon capital is too greedy, the people pay taxes and levy labor very heavyly, and the successive city lords of Qinyou City are diligent and thrifty and love the people.
Walking into the Wunian Palace, there is a strong smell of medicine, but this smell of medicine has some aura aroma, and the smell is refreshing.
Several people walked to the door of a large hall called Shennong Hall and stopped, and the entourage who led the way before said: "Wait a minute, I'll go in first and report it." ”
Waiting for the entourage to leave, Wang Mu took a good look at the Wunian Palace. If it is a palace, it is better to say that it is a relatively large mansion.
There were all kinds of strange herbs growing in the clearing, and most of Wang Mu couldn't name them. What really surprised Wang Mu was that there were very few guards in this Wunian Palace.
"Why are the guards in this Thoughtless Palace so lax?" Wang Mu asked.
Xu Fu explained: "Qinyou City is not as good as the other eleven Jue Cities, there is almost no wartime chaos here, so there are very few troops. In addition, a few days ago, the city lord suddenly disappeared, and almost all the soldiers were transferred to look for the city lord, and now that the city lord has returned to the palace, I believe that the palace guards will come back soon. ”
Sure enough, as soon as Xu Fu's words fell, a large number of guards poured in at the door, each returning to their posts, presumably they also got the news that the city lord had returned to the palace.
"Lord Xu, the city lord is invited." The attendant who had just reported said respectfully.
Xu Fu nodded, and took Wang Mu and the others to Shennong Palace, but was stopped by the guard: "I'm sorry Lord Xu, the city lord just invited you alone, they ......." ”
Hearing this, Xu Fu was not happy, and he said sharply: "These people have come from the Demon Capital to find the City Lord to have a secret matter to discuss. ”
Wang Mu was happy in his heart: I didn't expect this Xu Fu to really believe his words, but this is fine, if he said that he was looking for the city lord to treat the disease, maybe Xu Fu would not be like this, which saved a lot of trouble.
The attendant was a little embarrassed, and stood there in a daze. Xu Fuke couldn't manage so much, and took Wang Mu and a few people into the palace.
At this time, there were already many ministers gathered in the Shennong Palace, and their attire was similar, but the belts were a little different.
Xu Fu whispered: "Most of the ministers of Qinyou City are also pharmacists, and the color of the belt is also different according to the level, and it decreases from red to purple. The guy standing over there was the chief pharmacist like me, and his name was Walter. ”
Wang Mu nodded slightly, he glanced at the hall, and there were indeed only Xu Fu and the pharmacist named Walter who wore a red belt around their waists.
Xu Fu walked to the hall, half-knelt on the ground and said respectfully: "Pharmacist Xu Fu pays a visit to the city lord. The city lord has not been in the palace for the past few days, and everything is taken care of by me and Walter, and now the city lord has returned to the palace, which is my great luck in the secluded city! ”
Wang Mu heard it clearly, and couldn't help but sigh in his heart: "This Xu Fu is really well versed in the way of being an official, no wonder he has fallen from Great Qin to this but can still mix the wind and water." ”
The City Lord nodded, pointed at Wang Mu and the others and asked, "Who are they?" ”
Xu Fu was just about to introduce him, but Wang Mu hurriedly said: "I came from the Demon Capital City, and I made a special trip to find the city lord to ask for medicine to cure the disease!" ”
As soon as Wang Mu said this, the whole dynasty was in an uproar, and the ministers whispered timidly: "This guy is so bold that he dares to come to the Shennong Palace to ask the city lord for medicine." ”
And Walter directly stood up and scolded: "Presumptuous, when I saw that the city lord not only did not kneel or speak, but actually asked the city lord for medicine." Lord Xu, you are so bold, why do you bring anyone to the palace. What if it's a bad guy? ”
Wang Mu dared to stand up and ask for medicine, he was naturally sure, he had already inquired, this Qinyou City Lord was kind-hearted, and often relied on his superb medical skills to treat some strange diseases for the people.
"What are you doing?" There was some blame in Xu Fu's tone, he didn't expect things to turn out like this, it was completely unexpected by him.
Wang Mu tilted his head sideways and smiled at Xu Fu slightly, then turned his head and continued: "Su Wenqin Youcheng Lord loves the people like a son, and often goes out of the palace to treat ordinary people. I made a special trip from the Demon Capital, presumably the city lord won't see death without help, right? ”
The city lord of Qinyou knew that Wang Mu was deliberately saying something good, but he didn't seem to be moved: "The most important thing in my Qinyou City is a pharmacist with superb medical skills, why don't you seek them for treatment?" ”
Wang Mu said without humility or arrogance: "Only you can cure this disease, and I believe you will definitely cure it, right?" ”
The Lord of Qinyou City stared at Wang Mu's eyes for a while, and suddenly laughed and said, "The kid is so bold, since he found my Qinyou City, I naturally won't sit idly by!" ”
Wang Mu was waiting for this sentence, and he hurriedly said, "Then thank the city lord first!" ”
At this time, Xu Fu, who was kneeling on the side and didn't dare to raise his head, finally breathed a sigh of relief, he was worried about how this matter would end. Walter's face was full of displeasure, because he thought that this was a good opportunity to treat Xu Fu well, and officialdom was everywhere, even for the noble pharmacist.
But Nameless stood behind him and touched Wang Mu, and said softly, "Be careful of this person." ”
Wang Mu looked at Nameless with some doubts, and the City Lord of Qinyou, who was sitting in the hall, also looked at Nameless, his eyes were a little strange.
