Chapter 554: City Lord of the Road
Hearing the sound and seeing that he was still quite knowledgeable, Mo Ye glanced at him as if he was appreciative, and asked lightly, "What's the matter?" ”
"Back to the words of the son of Qi, my lord ......"
Speaking of this, the people who came were afraid that Qi Moye didn't know who the 'master' was, so he changed his words: "That is, the city lord here, when he heard that Qi Gongzi came here, he only felt that he was shining, so he specially asked the slave to invite Qi Gongzi to enter the city lord's mansion." ”
"No, no." After finishing lightly, Qi Moye made a gesture to close the door.
Hearing this, the people outside the door finally knelt on the ground with a 'plop', and replied with a bitter face: "Qi Gongzi, my lord is warmly invited, I think there must be something important to discuss with Qi Gongzi, and I also ask Gongzi to condescend." ”
Qi Moye's face was not good-looking.
He hadn't been in years.
Someone still wants to force him to go?
Even if he didn't think about it, he knew what the city lord was looking for him for.
Qi Moye was unmoved, and was about to forcibly close the door.
"Well, who? Disturbing dreams in the morning......"
At this moment, there was a sudden noise in the room, obviously a woman's voice.
Outside the door, the faces of the city lord's house slaves changed slightly.
On the contrary, Qi Moye's face turned from cloudy to sunny, and he smiled lightly: "It's okay to go, but please also tell the city lord that I have a friend here, if you go, you have to go together." ”
"It's nature." The house slave didn't ask for anything at all, and agreed to it.
"Hmm." Qi Moye didn't say anything more and closed the door.
Seeing this, the house slave hurriedly reminded: "Tonight, at dusk, please go to Qi Moye." ”
Qi Moye didn't agree, but obviously heard it.
Inside the house, Shu Youqin sat on the quilt in a daze, holding a quilt in her arms, and couldn't help yawning, tears oozing from the corners of her eyes.
Don't look at indecent things, don't listen to indecent people, Qi Moye looked away and said lightly: "Today, follow me to the banquet." ”
"Who's going with you?" Shu Youqin didn't react immediately.
"You." Qi Moye replied very briefly.
"Why?" Shu Youqin sobered up a little, and after a pause, his eyes widened and he asked in disbelief, "Who will invite you to the banquet?" ”
"The lord of this place." After finishing speaking, Qi Moye realized that something was wrong in his words, couldn't help but squint, and turned his head to look at Shu Youqin: "What do you mean by this?" ”
"It's boring." Shu Youqin scratched the back of her head, hurriedly snorted, got up from the ground, and made an excuse to slip away: "You wait a while, I'll go to the store to wash up first." ”
After speaking, she slipped away from Qi Moye's side.
A quarter of an hour later, Shu Youqin returned to the house in a good mood, followed by Xiao Er, who was holding a tray with a few side dishes.
When the meal was served, Qi Moye glanced at her and sat down at the table.
After Xiao Er left, Shu Youqin took a bowl of porridge and handed it over: "Originally, there were scallion pancakes and roasted lamb shanks in the breakfast at this inn, but you have injuries on your body, and you can't eat too greasy, so I chose the porridge side dishes, how about you taste it?" ”
After speaking, Shu Youqin had already eaten his bowl, and then sighed with satisfaction.
Qi Moye looked at her and said firmly: "I'm not used to eating at the same table with people. ”
"And then?" Shu Youqin looked at him innocently and swallowed what was in his mouth: "You also know, I'm also a rich girl, you can't let me squat aside and eat, right?" ”
Qi Moye paused, his face indifferent: "That's your business." ”
"Do you like to eat or not?" Shu Youqin rolled her eyes: "That's also your business." ”
Having said that, Shu Youqin still wiped his hands with a clean handkerchief on the side, peeled a white and tender egg and put it on the empty plate in Qi Moye's hand, and gestured: "For the sake of you being my savior." ”
In the end, Qi Moye was silent and ate quietly.
But although he closed his mouth, Shu Youqin became restless again, although he ate Sven, but after swallowing the things in his mouth, he opened his mouth again.
"Why are you called Mo Ye?"
Qi Moye didn't raise his head: "The name was taken by my father, what's wrong?" ”
"There's nothing wrong with it, it's just a little weird."
"What's strange?"
"Ink, it means black, Ye represents light in a sense, that is, white, Mo Ye Mo Ye, why not just call it black and white? Wouldn't it be smoother? ”
Hearing this, Qi Moye's throat stalked, and he was speechless for a moment.
After a long time, he said: "Eat without words." ”
……
Dusk, the beginning of the day.
The two left the inn.
Along the way, there are fewer pedestrians.
There is only one place that is extremely lively, and it is the one where Shu Youqin lived a few days ago.
"Oh my God, it's really miserable, no one in it escaped, I heard that they were all burned to death in this fire."
"You didn't see the fire last night, I lived not far away, and when I got up at night, I saw it, and it was really a sea of fire."
"The officers and soldiers came this morning, there were a total of twenty-two people, and the corpses were lined up, all burned beyond recognition."
"Have you found the cause of the fire?"
"I heard it was because the oil lamp in the guest room fell down."
"No one found out? That's too slow! ”
"Who's to say it isn't."
The people's talk was getting farther and farther away, and as they walked, Shu Youqin felt chills on her back, and secretly grabbed Qi Moye's sleeve.
When he looked over, Shu Youqin showed a smile that was more ugly than crying, and asked in a low voice: "Did those people do this last night?" ”
"The more you know, the sooner you die." Qi Moye didn't think it was a big deal to see the excitement, and said with a faint smile: "If you don't want to die, don't ask." ”
Seeing that he didn't seem to care, Shu Youqin felt uncomfortable in his heart: "If you hadn't taken me away, I would be among those who died last night." ”
"So, I'm your savior."
Shu Youqin asked tentatively: "The grace of saving my life should be reciprocated by the spring, or should I make a promise with my body?" ”
When the words fell, Qi Moye's footsteps did not stop, and his words were mocking: "You don't look good, but you think it's beautiful." ”
Feeling that his 'beauty' was ridiculed, Shu Youqin wondered very much: "I am also considered Zhou Zheng, why do I want to be beautiful?" ”
Hearing that she still had the meaning of breaking the casserole and asking the end, Qi Moye exhaled, and the green tendons on her forehead jumped happily, so she had to stop and look at her.
"Are you a girl or not? Is that what a girl should say? ”
"Are you serious?" Shu Youqin blinked and said in surprise: "I'm just joking, you won't really be attracted to me, right?" ”
Qi Moye grimaced, looked her up and down, made a conclusion, and said with a half-squint: "Look at the lot of water you have in your head, it is estimated that you can raise fish." ”
“…… Mo Ye, speak well. ”
The two moved on.
A quarter of an hour later, he entered the city lord's mansion.
The city lord who had been waiting for a long time came to greet him in person, and when he saw a good-looking girl standing next to Qi Moye, a trace of discoloration crossed his eyes, and he quickly returned to normal.
The city lord greeted him with a smile, and was about to salute, when he heard Qi Moye suddenly greet: "City Lord Wu." ”
The city lord of Lu quickly reacted, gave up his intention to kneel and salute, greeted him with a smile, and arched his hand: "Gongzi Qi." ”
"I heard that Qi Gongzi traveled to Yecheng and stayed in the inn temporarily, which was really my inconsiderate hospitality, so I cheekily invited Gongzi to come and talk about it, and asked Qi Gongzi to forgive me."
Hearing this, Qi Moye knew it, but pretended not to know: "You and I don't seem to have anything to talk about, why should the city lord of Lu be so polite?" ”
"That's what I'm supposed to do." The city lord of Lu did not move, and his smile was very gentle.
At this time, Shu Youqin suddenly spoke: "Qi? ”
"Hmm." Qi Moye remained silent, glanced at her, and said lightly: "I am at home, and the seventh person is called the seventh son." ”
Shu Youqin was surprised: "There are so many brothers and sisters in your family?" ”
"My family is quite rich." Qi Moye gave a rare explanation: "My father has many wives. ”
Shu Youqin: "...... You can see it. ”
Qi Moye: "What? ”
Shu Youqin: "The jade pendant on your waist is enough for me to have a year's worth of silver." ”
"Pretty good eye."
Beside him, the city lord listened to the conversation between the two, and the smile on his face became more and more reluctant.
Qi Gongzi, the seventh son.
I only heard that the temperament of the Seven Princes is extraordinary, and there are very few people who are familiar with him, and his words are to the point, no matter who the other party is, as long as it does not suit his wishes, he will not give people face.
Even His Majesty has nothing to do with him.
In other words, the Seventh Prince is very satisfied with the person in front of him.
Otherwise, how could it be so pleasant?
Walking to the backyard to entertain guests, it was already a song and dance.
Qi Moye sat down on the table and sat upright: "On this table, I am the only guest?" ”
"Exactly." After the city lord of Lu smiled, he pondered: "When the seventh prince came to Yecheng, I should have done my best to be a landlord. ”
"I'm tired."
Having said that, Qi Moye did not show the slightest hint of flattery on his face.
Such scenes were all too common for him.
As the seventh prince of the Qi family, even if he is not the master of the East Palace, no matter where he is placed, it is enough to make people's hearts tremble.
After thinking about it, the city lord of Lu said: "The seventh prince came from afar, can Ling Zun know?" ”
"My father doesn't care about me very often." Qi Moye said.
"The seventh prince should write a letter to report safety and send someone to bring it back, so that Ling Zun can feel at ease." Lucheng has a point.
Come to think of it, those corpses outside the city last night had been discovered by the City Lord Lu, and he also knew that those people were coming at Qi Moye, and they also died in Qi Moye's hands.
After all, as the city lord of Yecheng, Lu Mou is self-aware, such a city, except for Qi Moye, who has just arrived, can cause such a big movement, there is no one else and nothing else.
After hearing these slightly apprehensive words, Qi Moye raised his eyes and glanced at him, his face was calm: "Don't bother the city lord, I have my own opinions on this matter." ”
"It's nature." The city lord of Lu smiled and said: "It's me who talks too much, and the seventh prince should not be taken to heart." ”
"Hmm."
After saying that, there was a silence.
At this time, the city lord of Lu said: "I heard that the seventh prince is very elegant, so I specially prepared a dance for the seventh prince, and asked the seventh prince to give him a face." ”
