Chapter Seventy-Seven: The capital is greasy on the road
"It's all a trivial matter, so I'll get busy first."
After Mu Jinyang left, Shen Zhuru returned to the room, and Mu Fenghua followed.
"Lady, I'm afraid the road to the capital will not be peaceful, no matter what, I hope you can try to take Yueyang with you, if I suddenly disappear that day, please don't panic, after entering the city, we can meet."
"Huh?" Shen Zhuru turned around and looked at Mu Fenghua, wondering why he said this.
"Do you have something to deal with? Need a chance to slip away? Shen Zhuru couldn't help asking.
"Not really. Just in case, I told you in advance. After all, on this road, the closer you get to the capital, there will always be some people who can't bear it, and they may attack Princess Gesang's convoy, once the situation is chaotic, in case I am not by your side, let you know that I will be fine, you can protect your own safety, and see you in the capital at that time. Mu Fenghua smiled and shook his head.
Although he said this in his mouth, Shen Zhuru didn't believe that this was the reason, and stared at Mu Fenghua vigorously, staring at it for a long time, his eyes staring at it for a moment.
Mu Fenghua was stared at by Shen Zhuru's eyes uncomfortably, and felt that Shen Zhuru at this moment directly dissected him from beginning to end, knowing whether his words were true or false.
"Well, I'll admit I lied to you. The reason why I say this is because of my mother. I know my mother's temperament, this trip to the capital, do you really think that my mother let us make our own decisions and pick people to accompany the princess into Beijing, so we really let go? At least Yicui beside her will definitely be stuffed in this time. You know better than me about Yicui's purpose, don't you? Can't you bear to see me entangled? ”
Shen Zhuru couldn't help but roll her eyes.
"Isn't it just Yicui, it scares you so much that you actually use this kind of rancid method to slip away, it's completely unnecessary. There are seven treasures, can you be a vegetarian for him? Besides, it's not me. Qibao is a slave, maybe she doesn't care, but I'm a serious master, she dares to mess around, I have a way to let her go. Don't think of me as unbearable, it's just a girl who wants to climb high branches, are you afraid that I won't be able to clean it up? ”
"I'm afraid it's as simple as more than one maid." Mu Fenghua scratched the back of his head and said with a little embarrassment.
"What? Where else did you get a flock of butterflies to follow? Shen Zhuru raised her eyebrows and asked interestingly.
"Don't ask so much, just remember what I said, of course, just in case, if that person doesn't show up, just because I didn't say anything." Mu Fenghua didn't know how to answer, so he couldn't help but answer with some irritation.
Looking at Mu Fenghua, who rarely showed an impatient look, Shen Zhuru suddenly felt that this was really unhappy.
It seems that there must be a woman who doesn't know that may appear, and it's not easy to deal with.
If it weren't for that, this Mu Fenghua wouldn't be so stumbling and spitting, and he couldn't say it clearly.
"If you don't say it, I won't say it, I don't want to hear it. Rain, rain, moon, yueqin, choose things with me, and go to the capital tomorrow. ”
"No, young lady."
Early the next morning, two carriages departed from Mufu.
As Mu Fenghua said, Mu Liu Xinyue, the mother-in-law, really stuffed Yicui in, and served Shen Zhuru in the name of beauty, but in fact, she still showed her unwillingness, and wanted Mu Fenghua to take Yicui into the house.
Came to the gate of the post station in Qiyang County to gather, set off at the time of the hour, at this moment the people have basically arrived, just wait for Princess Gesang to come out of the post station, you can officially set off.
"Yuelong, Zhuru, you two have a carriage with me." After Princess Gesang came out of the post station, she stood in front of Nuoda's carriage, and had already pulled Qiao Yuelong and Shen Zhuru, who were behind the door, and went straight to her princess's car.
"Lady, lady, don't go, don't leave me." When Mu Fenghua saw Shen Zhuru being pulled away, he immediately chased after her with red eyes, grabbed the hem of her clothes, and the tears of grievance were about to fall.
Princess Gesang was startled by Mu Fenghua who suddenly ran over, and after seeing his performance, her eyes rolled slightly, and she responded with a smile: "Zhuru, you can't bear you, anyway, my carriage is big enough, let him come up too." ”
"Princess, by no means. Young Master Mu is a man, how can you ride in the same carriage with a strange man if you are a daughter, that is simply a big disrespectful offense, and you must not do it. The county lord immediately opened his mouth to stop it, if the one in the capital knew about it, his black gauze hat would not be a trivial matter, but I was afraid that it would affect the whole family, and that was not the result that this Lord Bai was willing to see.
"Lord Bai, Young Master Mu is just a simple person, what offense is there. Even if the royal grandmother knew, she wouldn't say anything. What's more, with so many people protecting him, if he really did something he shouldn't have done, wouldn't I shout? Not to mention, his wife and I can't even look down on a person? Don't worry about it here. Princess Gesang didn't eat this at all, if it weren't for the decency of the royal family, she even wanted to ride a horse directly, take her two entourages and go straight to the capital, where is there so much trouble, all the way to the capital.
Now I just want a simple person to ride in the same car, and I am not a lonely man and a widow, where is there so much nonsense.
Lord Bai was reprimanded by Princess Gesang, but he was still a little unwilling, and said: "But there is a difference between men and women, and it is unreasonable to give or receive kisses. ”
"Alright, that's it, don't give me nonsense. Everyone should get on the car, get on the horse, ride the horse, and go. Princess Gesang waved her hand, too lazy to listen to Lord Bai's nonsense, and got into the carriage directly, followed by Shen Zhuru and the others.
The princess's carriage was really not small, and the four of them sat in it with their legs stretched out, and it looked spacious.
In the carriage, there is a coffee table, a charcoal stove boiling hot water, a piano table, a guqin, and a horse-head piano are placed on the shelves inside.
You just need to get up and you can easily get it.
Fresh fruits are placed near the curtain and need to be checked and replaced every day to ensure freshness. The coffee table placed in the center can be lifted on the switch, and in the small lattice inside, there are teacups, teapots, and tea leaves, which are orderly, multi-functional and space-saving. Coupled with the concave design under the coffee table, sitting around the coffee table does not need to bend the legs and feet at all, which is very comfortable.
"How? My carriage is comfortable. This is the carriage I have people to make. There are soft cushions on the car wall, the coffee table is the most comfortable to chat and drink tea here, and the most important thing is that in case you need to sleep in the open air, you only need to remove the coffee table, and then pull down the dark board, which can immediately become a comfortable bed, amazing. Princess Gesang was very proud to show off, and her look was no different from that of a child who wanted to be praised by adults.
"The princess is so clever in her mind that I would never have thought of such a good idea. Princess, this car is obviously much taller than ordinary cars, and those designs are also your proposals? Qiao Yuelong looked at everything in the carriage vigorously, and couldn't help but praise the rationalization of the space layout and space utilization in the car.
"Yes. It's all what I asked for. ”
"The princess is a genius." Qiao Yuelong praised from the bottom of her heart, and Princess Gesang's eyes smiled into a slit when she heard it.
"Yuelong, you can play the piano, that piano was given by someone else, and I can't play it either, why don't you play a few tunes to relieve boredom, how about it?"
"I can't ask for it." Qiao Yuelong happily agreed, climbed to the piano platform and sat cross-legged, plucked the strings a few times, listened to the timbre and nodded with satisfaction, and then began to play one piece after another.
Before the carriage had left Qiyang County, the sound of the piano in the carriage had already floated out, stopping in the ears of the accompanying guards, and they couldn't help laughing.
Accompanied by music, this rush did not seem dull, Mu Jinyang rode a horse and walked side by side with Liu Anxing.
"Young Master Liu, feel free to talk about a few words?"
"Oh, it turned out to be Mr. Mu, I didn't expect you to chat with such a rough person as me, but I was a little flattered." Liu Anxing looked at Mu Jinyang with a little surprise and responded lightly.
"If Liu Gongzi is a rough person, where is the scholar in this world?"
"I'm a little embarrassed by what Mr. Mu said."
"Maybe ordinary people don't know, but they still know that although Liu Gongzi has always practiced martial arts with the commander, he is also a talented person with meritorious reputation, so it is too modest to be so arrogant."
Liu Anxing just smiled, and didn't say much, as for the chat that Mu Jinyang said, he showed a lack of interest.
Regarding Liu Anxing's indifferent attitude, Mu Jinyang was not annoyed at all, after all, he had expected it.
"Young Master Liu, this time I can enter Beijing with Princess Gesang, and the contact time with the princess will be longer than others. I see that the princess has a lot of praise for Liu Gongzi, so I might as well take this opportunity to go further. If he can become a good friend, Liu Gongzi may be able to get a place to run for the palace guards when he goes to the capital. ”
"Huh? Palace guards? Liu Anxing looked at Mu Jinyang, and his eyes fluctuated a little.
"Liu Gongzi didn't know that there was a competition in the palace in October, in order to select young people with good qualifications to be on an errand in the palace. Although it's just a title of a guard, it's a person in the palace anyway. Every day is faced with big people, as long as the performance is good, soaring is just around the corner. Even if he uses this identity, Liu Gongzi intends to join the army, and because of this identity, he can directly serve in the army as the leader of a hundred people, which is much better than simply joining the army. ”
"How did you hear about this, and how I haven't heard of anything like this?"
"Liu Gongzi should know that not long ago, when the son of the Qin family in Nanyang got married, he had the honor to go to the banquet. This news was mentioned by an adult who was on vacation from an errand in the political secretary during the banquet, saying that this matter is not a secret in the capital, but most of the people who can know the news are the children of the noble family, or someone who is on an errand in the palace, after all, if you want to enter, you also need to be reviewed and recommended. As far as I know, Liu Gongzi should have a cousin who was on an errand in the palace, and I thought that he must have written a letter to inform Gongzi, but he was negligent. ”
Mu Jinyang looked apologetic, but he kept his mouth shut and said no more.
Liu Anxing was silent.
"Young Master Liu, it's better to find that cousin after you arrive in the capital and ask if there is a way to run for election. Just in case, I think if you have the chance, you should show your face in front of the princess and show your presence. There may be unexpected results. ”
Mu Jinyang said another sentence appropriately.
As for Liu Anxing, after a moment of silence, he finally spoke.
"Why are you telling me this?"
"Does Liu Gongzi think that I said this with ulterior motives, and I want to harm you?" Mu Jinyang asked with wide eyes.
"I didn't say that. It's just that with your temperament, no matter how well you cover it up, you can't deny that you have ambitions, don't say that you have no purpose in saying this, I don't believe it. ”
Liu Anxing is not a fool either.
Mu Jianuo's big family business, but there is a stupid son, if Mu Hongxun dies, with Mu Fenghua's fool, no matter how big the family business is, it will not be enough for him to lose.
Mu Jinyang is a side branch of the Mu family, originally his family was not bad, and he could be regarded as a rich family, coupled with Mu Jinyang's ability, it is not a problem to make the family property bigger at all, there is no reason to be so willing to come to the Mu family in Qiyang County to be the head of the Mu family.
To put it nicely, call him Young Master Jinyang, to put it mildly, he is a slave with a high status, and his subordinates are always subordinates, and he can't be compared with his original identity as a young master.
Mu Jinyang would rather not be a young master to run away as a slave, except for the few parties involved in the Mu family and the authorities, people who have come into contact with Mu Jinyang do not think that this kid is willing to be a subordinate, I am afraid that people value not only the Mu family's big industry, but even more Mu Hongxun's connections.
If you can get these, it is much better than giving a mountain of gold directly.
At least the gold mountain is finished digging, but if the network is well managed, it is something that will benefit from generations, and it cannot be measured in terms of money at all.
This thought seems to be a long time, but it is just a momentary thought of Liu Anxing.
Facing Liu Anxing's gaze that had already seen through him, Mu Jinyang was an old god, looking calm and comfortable.
"Young Master Liu, no matter what my purpose is, it will not be harmful to you. To put it bluntly, I just want to have a good relationship with Liu Gongzi, even if it is for the future. I don't know if you can answer like this, can Liu Gongzi be satisfied? ”
"If this is true, I will write down this favor." Liu'an Xingdao.
"Liu Gongzi is really refreshing, then I wish Liu Gongzi can make his wish come true." Mu Jinyang smiled and arched his hand.
"Honest with you." Stretching out his hand not to hit the smiling man, Liu Anxing still responded, and then sped up a little, slowly moving forward from the back of the team, and gradually approached the position of the carriage where Princess Gesang was riding.
Seeing that he was about to catch up, he couldn't get any closer because of the alien warriors beside the two Gesang princesses who were supporting him on both sides of the car. (To be continued.) )
