Chapter 474: Something Else
Mao Wenlong's explanation made Hong Chengchou cry and laugh, in his mind, there are such people in the world, and it is estimated that Mao Wenlong is the only one. actually gave up the position of the Ninety-Five Venerable for this small reason.
However, having said that, everyone has their own ideas, and now that Mao Wenlong has obviously made up his mind not to be the emperor, even if he persuades him again, the effect should not be great.
After some contemplation, Hong Chengchou said: "You really don't want to be this emperor anymore? ”
Mao Wenlong said firmly: "Absolutely inappropriate." ”
Hong Chengchou sighed lightly, his expression was slightly lost, after all, he had worked with Mao Wenlong for so long, and he also had a deep understanding of Mao Wenlong's behavior. If Mao Wenlong is willing to be the emperor, he will definitely support it, at least the changes that Mao Wenlong has brought to the people of the world, I believe everyone can see it.
"It's a pity, but it's a great pity for the people to lose you. However, you don't want to be the emperor, so how do you explain it to everyone. After all, not everyone is as good at talking as me, and there must be many people in the army who follow the general army, in order to one day be able to ascend to a high position, the descendants of Fuyin! ”
Hong Chengchou calmed down, he had already thought that he couldn't do anything about Mao Wenlong, but the Dongjiang Army and many people working under Mao Wenlong might not let Mao Wenlong act so recklessly?
However, Hong Chengchou still underestimated Mao Wenlong, after all, he had already known it before he left to meet Chongzhen in Coal Mountain. At this time, Mao Wenlong was asked by Hong Chengchou, and he said unhurriedly: "What is there to explain this, what should everyone do or what should they do." If I am not the emperor, I will not delay them from ascending to the high position and blessing the descendants of Yin. ”
Hong Chengchou laughed and said: "You can't say that, think about it, if those people were originally rushing to get an official and enter the knighthood." After learning that you are not the emperor, then these people will not agree. ”
Mao Wenlong chuckled silently after hearing this, he could see that Hong Chengchou was completely threatening himself.
Mao Wenlong squinted at Hong Chengchou and said lightly: "What? You think that's going to change my mind. Absolutely not, I'm not afraid to tell you, in fact, it's one thing for me not to be an emperor, it doesn't mean that I even let out the power. ”
Hong Chengchou was stunned for a moment when he heard this, and said in surprise: "You want to be in power behind the scenes?" ”
Mao Wenlong laughed and said: "Then do you think I am so great that I will give away the family business that I have worked so hard to knock down?" ”
Hong Chengchou fell into deep thought, his brows were deeply locked for a while, and he smiled again for a while, and he didn't know what he was calculating in his heart? Mao Wenlong didn't bother him, he got up and left quietly, leaving Hong Chengchou in the study to think slowly.
Mao Wenlong actually didn't disdain to be the emperor, but he was self-aware, and he knew very well how many catties and taels he had. Just like now commanding the Dongjiang Army and governing the territory that has been fought so far, he feels that it is enough. Not to mention that if he becomes the emperor in the future, that life will definitely be even more difficult than Chongzhen's now.
It is unwise to put yourself in the struggle for power and profit for the sake of a false name. Heroes and bears, Mao Wenlong would rather choose bears, because he knows that heroes have not ended well since ancient times.
Except for a Cheng Biting Jin in the Tang Dynasty, he is a hero with a good end. But in the end, he didn't rely on pretending to be crazy and stupid to keep his position.
After a quiet night, the sky had just dawned, but Mao Wenlong, who was still asleep, was woken up by the eldest lady of the Mao family. This girl started crying early in the morning, her voice was loud and crisp, and she was obviously in good shape and full of energy.
Hong Ziyan heard the crying of the eldest lady, broke away from Mao Wenlong's arms without saying a word, and then put on a coat and hurriedly got out of bed and left.
Without his wife in his arms, Mao Wenlong simply got up and came to the eldest lady's room after washing.
Hong Ziyan had obviously just fed the child, and the eldest lady had already fallen asleep in her arms. There were originally two wet nurses in Mao's house, and they didn't need Hong Ziyan to feed them personally, but Hong Ziyan insisted on feeding them herself.
Mao Wenlong didn't bother with Hong Ziyan on such a trivial matter, as long as she was happy, she was just breastfeeding anyway.
Walking forward, stretching his neck to look at the eldest lady who was sleeping sweetly, Mao Wenlong smiled and said, "Did the father-in-law give the child's name?" ”
Hong Ziyan raised her eyes and glared at Mao Wenlong, and complained angrily: "You don't care about the child at all, you just ran away alone less than half a month after birth." Now I don't even know the name of the child, how can you be a father like this in the world. ”
In the face of such complaints, what else can Mao Wenlong say? immediately showed a flattering smile on his face, and then admitted his mistake to Hong Ziyan in a low voice: "This matter is on me, Xianggong apologizes to the lady, I hope the lady will not worry about me." ”
"Poof......
Hong Ziyan was amused by Mao Wenlong's funny appearance and laughed: "Go, go, the child has just fallen asleep now, don't make a noise to her here, go and do your serious business." ”
Mao Wenlong saw that Hong Ziyan was already smiling, which naturally meant that Bing released his previous suspicions, and he no longer blamed himself: "Okay, I'll leave now, but you have to tell my child's name." ”
"Mao Shuyuan!" Hong Ziyan told Mao Wenlong softly.
Mao Shuyuan...... Not bad! After Mao Wenlong praised him, he turned around and left.
When I arrived at the dining hall, I had already seen Hong Chengchou and Chongzhen present.
Hong Chengchou diligently sandwiched the food made by the chef in Mao's mansion to Chongzhen. Today, the chef knew that Mao Wenlong was back, and he began to prepare Mao Wenlong's favorite meal last night. didn't think about it, Mao Wenlong hadn't come yet, but was taken by Hong Chengchou to borrow flowers and offer Buddha to greet Chongzhen.
The cook watched Chongzhen, the emperor, gobble up the food he cooked, and he was very proud in his heart. But as soon as he heard movement at the door, he looked up and saw Mao Wenlong Shi Shiran's arrival, and the cook's face immediately changed greatly.
"Good morning, everyone!" Mao Wenlong smiled and greeted the two people in the dining room with a fist.
Hong Chengchou glanced back when he heard the sound, and then squeezed out: "Yo, today is the sun coming out in the west." Our chief soldier actually got up so early. ”
Mao Wenlong was obviously accustomed to Hong Chengchou's sarcasm, he directly ignored Hong Chengchou, sat down next to Chongzhen, and said with a smile: "The emperor still has an appetite for these meals?" ”
Chongzhen put down the bowl that had already drunk the porridge, and said with a face full of surprise: "General Mao, I didn't expect that there is such a delicacy hidden in your house, I have never drunk such delicious rice porridge." ”
Mao Wenlong didn't need to look at the pot on the table, just smelling the taste, he already knew what kind of porridge Chongzhen was drinking just now. He chuckled and said, "The emperor also thinks this sweet potato rice porridge is delicious?" ”
