Chapter 0040: Black Eagle Little Junior Sister Zhong Lixiang
"Do you have to go back to Luoyang?"
This was the second time the girl had asked the question, and she looked expressionless.
Chen Mu lowered his head. He wasn't thinking about the girl's question. Because he felt he had already answered. At this time, Chen Mu was thinking about why the prince Zhao Mu fled from Luoyang instead of hiding in Tang Qiong's house.
Could it be that Zhao Muxin can't be Tang Qiong? So why can't he trust Tang Qiong, what secrets are hidden here?
These are questions that Chen Mu can't figure out even if he wants to break his head, because he still has too little information now. At this time, he was more concerned about how many people in Chang'an City knew the prince Zhao Mu?
In Chen Mu's opinion, those portraits actually have no effect, unless all the people who look like portraits are arrested, no one can identify the person in front of him as the prince Zhao Mu at a glance through the portraits.
In addition, no matter which force they were, they would definitely not have thought that Zhao Mu would run back to Luoyang City in a grand manner. This may be the reason why the lights are dark.
Tang Qiong, as the patriarch of the gate valve, is in a high position, he asked his sister Empress Tang to recognize the emperor's illegitimate son Zhao Mu as his son, and then supported Zhao Mu as the emperor, then Tang Qiong must have seen Zhao Mu, and may even have communicated many times.
The time was too short, and Chen Mu was still a little confused, but the girl sitting opposite looked at him with hot eyes.
Chen Mu smiled: "From now on, I will be Chen Mu." ”
"It's not clever to play stupid." The girl had a cold face: "There are too many examples of the prince pretending to be stupid, the third son of Qin, Liu Heng, Emperor Wen of the Han Dynasty, and Li Chen of Tang Xuanzong, all of them are like this, so your trick is not new at all, and no one will believe it anymore." ”
"Have you ever seen the scar on my head?"
"I haven't seen it, and I don't want to see it." The girl turned her head sideways.
Chen Mu walked up to the girl, untied his bun, grabbed it to one side, and on the back of his head, a terrifying scar appeared in front of the girl.
Seeing this, the girl was startled, and reached out to touch the scar, like a big centipede lying on the back of Chen Mu's head.
It was only less than two months of deep wounds, and the wound was still slightly red and swollen, and there were some scabs.
Believing that this was a very serious new injury, the girl asked, "How did such a serious scar come about?" ”
"On the wall of the city three feet high, I fell headfirst down and fell on the road. I think you also know that the roads of the city walls are made of stone. If I wanted to play dumb, was it necessary for me to take such a big risk? ”
"With your combat power, who can push you off the wall?"
"There was a war going on in the city, who do you say pushed me down?"
"You really don't remember anything?" The girl frowned, but she still didn't believe it.
However, her performance has already shown that she is thinking about Chen Mu's words.
"If I were Zhao Mu and remembered the past, then the question I just asked seemed to be nonsense."
"I don't care if you're pretending to be stupid." The girl's attitude was resolute: "I can tell you that our employer's surname is Chen. ”
"Male or female?" Chen Mu asked indifferently.
"The current Queen Mother." The girl bit her lip.
Chen Mu raised his head: "Shouldn't she kill me?" ”
"She's your aunt, and she can't bear to kill you."
"Who's going to kill me? Her emperor's son? ”
"Her son is only thirteen years old, although he has the name of the emperor, he is actually still a child, and now the Empress Dowager Chen is listening to the government, but the real power is 'Prince He' Zhao Tong, and at the same time Zhao Tong is also the minister of Tuogu, the Great Pillar State, and the general of the Xuanjia Army. Of the 200,000 Xuanjia Army, he himself controlled eleven divisions, while the emperor only had nine. At the same time, Zhao Tong is also your uncle. ”
"With such authority, why didn't he ascend the throne and become emperor himself?"
"Will the three gate valves agree? The Shence army is 150,000, the tiger army is 150,000, and the Flying Tiger army is 150,000. Now that the royal family has joined forces with the Tang Clan's Shence Army, it is only then that they maintain a balance with the Meng Clan and the Ximen Clan. If he Zhao Tong wants to be the emperor, he must first ask Tang Qiong if he agrees. ”
Chen Mu was slightly shocked, the complexity of the Great Liang Imperial Court was simply staggering. The three major gates have been in place since the founding of the People's Republic of China, and in the case of continuous internal and external troubles, how did such a court persist for more than 170 years?
How many power masters have to appear in this to maintain such a delicate balance?
"In other words, you are here to protect me, and you hope that I will not go to Luoyang. But why didn't you say it earlier? ”
"You pretend to be so like, I even suspect I've mistaken someone."
It seems that the girl still doesn't believe that Chen Mu has amnesia, and she is not sure that the young man in front of her must be Zhao Mu.
Chen Mu stared at the girl.
The girl's eyes dodged for a moment, and she said softly: "But judging from your character and combat power, I don't think it will be wrong, so I plan to talk to you in Yuzhou." ”
"What kind of personality is Zhao Mu?"
"There are very few people who know Zhao Mu, because this is a scandal of the royal family. If it weren't for the ruthlessness of this palace fight, the people wouldn't even know that there was such a person as Zhao Mu. According to what my senior brother heard, Zhao Mu is a funny and knowledgeable person, who usually loves to read, and has been a master of power since he was a child. The girl suddenly felt that something was wrong, and glared: "You are Zhao Mu, don't you know what your personality is?" ”
Chen Muhan smiled.
The girl puffed up: "The one who pushes you is the number one master next to the emperor, the master of the celebrity, Cheng Wannu." Cheng Wannu's skill has surpassed the nine grades. It is the existence of the Great Master. If it weren't for such a person to push you for your merits, you would only be seventeen years old, how could you have such a high level of skill as you are now? I think you are Zhao Mu. But you just don't admit it! ”
The more the girl spoke, the more angry she became, and she unconsciously hugged her shoulders. The dignified pretending just now was thrown back to his head, with a coquettish and cute face.
Chen Mu smiled bitterly: "It's just what you think." ”
"I'll just treat you as if you are." The girl pursed her lips unconsciously.
"If I don't go to Luoyang, will your mission be completed?"
"It's not."
"What other tasks do you have?"
"Prevent you from going back to Jiuquan."
"You mean to say that my aunt doesn't want me to contact the Tang Gate?"
"I don't know what the Queen Mother means, but she said, you have a letter on you, as long as you put that letter into the hands of King Sangla, you can settle down in a foreign country. Since then, he has never returned to the Central Plains. ”
"Letter?"
Chen Mu was stunned, he had never seen any letters.
Chen Mu asked: "You are not from the four major killer groups?" ”
The girl glanced at Chen Mu: "You may not know much about the four major killer groups, they are not four sects, but four relatively large organizations." There are many sects in each organization. I belong to the Black Hawk Gate. A big sect that has begun to go downhill. Now, the task of chasing and killing and finding Zhao Mu is the most dangerous mission. ”
"Why?"
"Because you can be killed by your peers at any time. The killer group is keeping a close eye on each other. ”
"In other words, you are by my side, in fact, you are also dangerous, and it is easy to expose me?"
"Don't worry, my situation is special. I've always been outside the organization, and if it weren't for the sake of saving the sect, I wouldn't have done this task for my senior brother. ”
"Senior brother?"
"Yes. The senior brother entered the palace. He wanted to become the Queen Mother's confidant, but at this time he had no decent credit, and the Queen Mother did not accept him. The girl frowned, looking preoccupied: "If he wants to become the queen mother's henchman, the best way is to find you, if that happens, our Black Eagle Gate can restore its former glory." ”
Chen Mu smiled bitterly and said sarcastically in a gentle tone: "A person who engages in assassination, and still mentions brilliance? ”
"Who told you we were only here for assassination?" The girl's eyebrows were upside down.
The girl's eyebrows moved, and Chen Mu finally found the reason why the girl gave herself a sense of heroism at the beginning, her eyebrows were a little special, looking like a lancet. And she has quite a beautiful eyebrow and sideburns, coupled with the high and upturned tip of her nose, which makes her facial features look three-dimensional.
The girl is still young, and the baby fat on her face has not retreated, if it is a few years later, it will be a very cold face.
Chen Mu looked at the girl: "I think so." ”
The girl bowed her head and stopped talking, looking a little frustrated.
Chen Mu's mind was a little messy, he rubbed his face and raised his head: "What's your name?" ”
"Does my name matter to you?" The girl's eyebrows were lowered.
"If you really don't want to say it, I don't force it." Chen Mu looked down at his fingers.
"My surname is Zhongli."
"Oh."
"Have you ever heard of this surname?"
"Zhong Liyi, the general under Xiang Yu, the overlord of Western Chu, has repeatedly defeated Liu Bang, the ancestor of the Han Dynasty, but later Xiang Yu was defeated, and Zhong Liyi took refuge in Han Xin, the king of Chu. Han Xin was originally the first person under Liu Bang to fight, and he, the king of Chu, was also sealed by Liu Bang. But at that time, Emperor Liu Bang already had the intention of killing Han Xin, since he wanted to kill him, he had to go to his wings first, including Zhong Liyi. But at this time, Han Xin's determination to protect Zhong Liyi was not firm, Zhong Liyi knew that he was in trouble, and before killing himself, he said to Han Xin, 'I die today, and my husband will die with me', and the result became a prophecy. How could I not know such a famous person in history? ”
"Hmph, I also said that I have amnesia and read history books." The girl was delicate and twisted.
Chen Mu didn't answer, but said, "Do you only have a surname?" ”
The girl was so angry that she smiled bitterly: "I have the word 'fragrant' on my list." ”
"Oh, Zhonglixiang." Chen Mu took a deep breath, tasted it, and nodded: "Well, people are as their name suggests." ”
