Chapter 111: The Lord of Bei'an County
When the little county lord saw his embarrassed appearance, he almost laughed and crawled on the table, and Caiyun's body behind him trembled vigorously, wanting to laugh but not daring to laugh.
Zhang Mu stood up in embarrassment, and the little county lord smiled and said, "Wasn't you quite bold that day?" Why is this scared? ”
"Your Highness, let's not make this kind of joke, okay, I am the single heirloom of the Zhang family, and I still hope to inherit the Zhang family." Zhang Mu hurriedly said embarrassedly.
"Are you ashamed!" The little county lord stuck out his tongue, a pair of big watery eyes, his eyes flowed, and he looked up and asked curiously: "You told me that day that you saved the life of the imperial grandfather?" Tell me what's going on? ”
"This ......, this involves confidentiality, lowly duty, lowly duty really dare not say more." Zhang Mu said in a low voice.
"Don't worry, this matter is out of your mouth and into my ears, and no third person will know about it. Caiyun, you can go out too. The little county lord said eagerly.
When Caiyun retreated, Zhang Mu was completely relieved, he was not afraid of this little county lord, although he didn't get along for a long time, but he felt that the little county lord was innocent, simple-hearted, and had not been contaminated by the world.
What Zhang Mu was afraid of was that the women and maids who followed the little county lord, the women who came out of the palace were not fuel-efficient lamps, and who knew what they would say to the county lord of Jiangdu when they went back? It's always right to be careful.
Zhang Mu sat down arrogantly, hurriedly picked up a folding fan, and fanned it with a snort: "I almost died of heat, you wear so much, isn't it hot?" ”
The little county lord dragged his cheeks to see that Zhang Mu was so contrasting, but he was not angry at all, but he dragged his cheeks with a smile and said, "How about heat energy?" Our female dolls can't be like you, right? Besides, since I was sensible, I have been followed by a group of old women, who have to take care of what they say, what they do, what they eat, and what they wear, and they are annoyed to death. ”
"I don't know how many girls in the world want to be like you, don't be born in happiness and don't know blessings. I'll give you a fan. As he spoke, Zhang Mu took a folding fan and fanned her.
"Tell me quickly, how did you save the imperial grandfather?" The little county lord asked reluctantly.
Zhang Mu picked up the teapot, drank two sips, put it down, wiped his mouth, and began to add oil and vinegar to say, in his previous life, he had mixed with officialdom, and he had already practiced a good eloquence, and the story told was called a thrilling and tear-jerking.
The little county lord was fascinated when he listened to it, a pair of big eyes that were bright and bright, and gradually came out of the light of worship, and as soon as Zhang Mu finished speaking, he said stupidly: "No wonder you dared to lure them away that day, it turns out that you are so amazing." ”
Zhang Mu said proudly: "What is this? It's a piece of cake, if my skills are all revealed, will I be shocked and cry ghosts and gods, okay? ”
"You just brag, then why did you jump off the cliff that day?" The little county lord asked.
Zhang Mu said disdainfully: "Do you think I want to?" There are more than 100 people on the other side, and I am just one, jumping off the cliff may still have a glimmer of life, if you don't jump, it will fall into their hands, then I will call life better than death. ”
"There were so many people that day?" The little county lord asked in surprise.
"Isn't it? After I escaped, I fought and retreated with them, and in the end I really had no choice, I couldn't wait for your rescuers, besides, a hero like me, Lord Yama didn't dare to accept me. You can't die if you jump. Zhang Mu said.
The little county lord pouted and said: "Then since you are so powerful, tomorrow the county will mainly go to Qiandao Lake to play, you can escort it." ”
"Tomorrow? I won't be able to go tomorrow. Zhang Mu shook his head and said.
"Why?" The little county lord asked.
"I'm going to take the college exam tomorrow, and I still have to take the top exam." Zhang Mu said in frustration.
The little county lord looked at Zhang Mu with a shocked face, got up and said, "You just lie to me, you obviously don't want to play with me." I've already inquired with my sister, you are already a hundred households, a dignified six-rank military general, what kind of imperial examination? How majestic it is to be a great general, why should you be a poor and sour talent. ”
When Zhang Mu heard this, he couldn't help but smile bitterly, seeing that the status of the civil servants of the Hongwu Dynasty was indeed not high, and he could see it from the mouth of the little county lord, so he smiled and said: "I'm doing things by order, don't I believe you?" ”
As he spoke, Zhang Mu took out Lao Zhu's handwritten letter from the drawer and handed it to the little county lord, who was stunned after reading it: "It's really true." ”
"You know what? Although martial arts can fight the world, but it can't rule the world, besides, now that the person who killed me hasn't been caught, you let me escort it, aren't you afraid of attracting thieves again? Zhang Mu said with a smile.
"Hey, it's easy to come out of Yingtianfu to play for a few months, but it's still a large group of old women and maids to follow, that's not all, now there are a lot of guards, go out, hug back and forth, the trouble is troublesome, it's not interesting at all." I was going to ask you to go out and play together, but you weren't available. The life of the lord of this county is so bitter. The little county lord said with a sad face.
"You are still living hard, let you be an ordinary person for a few days, you can't find a place to cry." Zhang Mu said with a smile.
The little county lord rolled his big eyes and asked, "Then is there time for you to finish the test?" ”
"I'm going to ...... after the hospital test." Zhang Mu said this, hesitated, the hospital was going to Wenzhou after the test, and the brother-in-law of this little county lord is now the commander of Hangzhou Metropolitan Envoy Si Tongzhi, God knows if he has a problem, so he changed his words: "Go and track down the bandits, then with your life, you will be born rich and rich, and you will not worry about food or clothing." The little ones are still breadwinners. ”
"What's this? When I go back and write to the emperor's grandfather, he will give you a raise. Grandpa Huang loves me the most, and he will definitely give you a boost. If you have money, won't you be able to play with me? The little county lord said innocently.
"Don't make trouble, it's child's play for you to be in the court?" Zhang Mu said.
"Then this won't work, that month won't work, or just wait for your hospital to finish the test and take me to track down the bandits." The little county lord said.
When Zhang Mu heard this, he almost knelt on the ground, his head shook like a rattle, and he secretly said in his heart: "When the county lord goes out to play, I want to return my head." But seeing the unrelenting momentum of the little county lord, he smiled and said: "Then let's do it, when the test is over, how about I promise to play with you for two days?" “
"Really?" When the little county lord heard this, his eyes immediately lit up and said, "Then you are not allowed to deny it." ”
"Peace of mind, a big hero like me, is it the kind of person who goes back on his word?" Zhang Mu said.
The little county lord nodded with satisfaction and said: "Even if you know each other, if you dare to go back, I will go and ask the imperial grandfather to reward you to be a little father-in-law." ”
Zhang Mu said embarrassedly with a sweat on his neck: "Absolutely true." ”
"Well, for your sake, the lord of this county will take his leave. You can remember to eat that snack, I'll make it for you next time. The little county lord said triumphantly.
Zhang Mu smiled awkwardly and said, "Thank you for the reward." ”
Only then did the little county lord turn around and push open the door and say, "Let's go." ”
Zhang Mu hurriedly tidied up his clothes and sent the little county lord out of the post station, and then said with a wry smile: "The people of the old Zhu family, regardless of men or women, none of them are worry-free!" “
