Chapter 22: He Wants to See Me
Mu Qing looked out through the crack in the door, and there was a man in a purple robe walking beside Master Maneng.
The man is tall, wearing a black jade crown on his head, a jade belt around his waist, and a cloud boot on his feet, embroidered with auspicious cloud patterns on the cuffs and neckline.
A pair of sword eyebrows into the sideburns, a tall nose bridge, thin lips tightly pursed, eyes as black as ink, expressionless face, noble temperament.
This man can kill any little fresh meat on the planet in seconds, and he doesn't know how long it is.
He was followed by four black-robed guards, all with solemn faces and bronze swords hanging from their waists.
At this moment, the man seemed to be aware of Mu Qing's gaze and turned his head to look at Mu Qing.
Mu Qing hurriedly retracted his body, this man's eyes did not have a trace of warmth, and that glance had the feeling of being targeted by a beast.
"Brother, this person is so scary!" Mu Chen also felt it, and shrank back in fright.
He was punished by Mu Qing several times, and now he will never shout wrong again. Big eyes blink and blink, like stars in the night.
Mu Qing couldn't help but rub his head, this kid was too cute: "This person has a lot of anger, he must have killed a lot of people, I can feel that the two of us together are not enough for people to pinch with one finger." Don't go out if you have nothing to do, stay away if you encounter it, and we'll leave early tomorrow morning when the rain stops. ”
Mu Qing sensed the danger, this man's identity was definitely not simple.
"Uh-huh! I remember" Mu Chen nodded like pounding garlic, so cute and cute.
He's smart and can figure it out.
"Also, if someone asks about our relationship when I'm not with you, you'll say that I picked you up from the bottom of the mountain."
Mu Chen asked with some dissatisfaction, "Brother, why do you say that I picked it up?" ”
"You think! Monks are generally orphans, where did I get a "sister" from an orphan? So you can only pick it up. ”
Saying this, Mu Chen understood, nodded and said, "I remember." ”
……
Inside the meditation room.
Master Fa Neng and Gong Qingcang sat cross-legged in front of the tea table and tasted tea.
Gong Qingcang put down the cup and said, "The master is a master in the world, I wonder if the master has heard about the Mu family tragedy?" What does the Master think about this? ”
Master Fa Neng clasped his hands together and said with a sad face: "Amitabha Buddha is good, good! The tragedy of the Mu family has spread all over the country, everyone knows about it, and Lao Qu naturally knows about it. The Mu family was tragically wiped out, and the old man was deeply saddened, Amitabha! I am a Buddha with compassion. ”
Master Fa Neng did not comment much on the Mu family tragedy.
Gong Qingcang's slender fingers gently turned the tea bowl, and said: "Master Fa Neng is merciful and respectful to the Duke of Huai, and the Duke of the Mu family tragedy is also deeply sympathetic, fortunately, God left two species for the Mu family, but I don't know where the two Mu Qing sisters and brothers are hiding?" In case they meet Yan Guo's soldiers, the two of them will be more than lucky. ”
This is a temptation, Gong Qingcang doesn't look at his age, he doesn't lose to anyone in terms of scheming.
Master Fa Neng is not a fool, he folded his hands and said: "God has the virtue of a good life, and it is naturally good to be able to live, but Lao Qu is not a god, and he can't count the whereabouts of the two of them." ”
Gong Qingcang didn't ask any more questions, but changed the question: "I heard that Emperor Xing is among the two of her, is it true in the master's opinion?" ”
Master Fa Neng stroked his beard and said, "Zhen Guogong is very intelligent, do you also believe in rumors?" ”
It turned out that Gong Qingcang was the ninth prince of Da Shengguo, and he was named the Duke of Zhenguo by King Sheng two years ago, so he called himself "Bengong".
Luo Yu Continent implements the system of three dukes and nine kings, and Gong Qingcang is not qualified to be a duke.
Generally, those who are named dukes are the elders of the three dynasties, or courtiers who have made great contributions to the country, are eligible to be dukes.
And the reason why Gong Qingcang was made an exception by King Sheng to be named a duke was because a few years ago there was a rebellion on the frontier, and the Qi State and the Yan State were ready to move and wanted to annex the Dasheng State.
Although Dasheng has the word "big", it is the smallest country among several countries.
Although it is not large, it is one of the richest countries, and the location of Shengguo is the best location. The land is fertile, the people are rich, and there are few natural and man-made disasters.
Now that there has been a truce for so many years, and they are even richer, the two closest countries can't sit still and want to annex Shengguo.
King Sheng sent several generals with tens of thousands of troops to the frontier to quell the chaos, but they were all defeated, and the territory of Shengguo was reduced by nearly half in just three years.
Seeing that he was about to lose the country, when King Sheng was anxious, Gong Qingcang took the initiative to ask Ying to go to the frontier to quell the rebellion, and he was only sixteen years old that year.
Everyone was not optimistic about him, but no one expected that he only brought 100,000 soldiers and horses, and in just three years, he not only recovered the lost land, but also expanded the Dasheng Kingdom a lot.
Now among the seven kingdoms of Luo Yu, in addition to the surrounding four countries, it is the largest country among the three countries in the Central Plains.
Yan and Qi were defeated and retreated, and finally had to send envoys to negotiate peace.
After the matter calmed down, King Sheng was afraid that Gong Qingcang's family would have a rebellion because he held the military power, so he accepted his military power.
However, King Sheng was afraid that he would be upset and turned against him, so he made an exception and named him the Duke of Zhenguo to show appeasement and drove him to the fiefdom of Xiangyang.
Although it is enshrined by ten thousand households, it is an empty title, with limited military power, and cannot go to the court to discuss matters, and even cannot return to the court without the order of King Sheng.
Gong Qingcang smiled lightly and said, "What the master said is extremely true, how can this father believe the rumors." "If you look closely, you will find that he is smiling and not smiling.
Gong Qingcang took a sip of tea and suddenly changed his style and said: "I passed by the West Chamber just now, I don't know who lives in the West Chamber?" ”
He always felt that the people living in that room were not simple, and that gaze was too sharp.
Master Fa Neng twisted the Buddha beads in his hand, put one hand on his chest and said: "The West Chamber lives in Lao Gao's apprentice, he ran out to travel a few days ago, and today he is back, alas! This little apprentice is very stubborn, and his heart is not over, isn't it! Come back, come back! also picked up a girl. ”
Master Mana shook his head and sighed, as if he was very distressed by Mu Qing's stubbornness. If Mu Qing must give him a thumbs up here, doesn't he say that his family doesn't speak? This nonsense is a thief and a thief.
Gong Qingcang paused as he turned his hand over the tea bowl: "Oh! Even if he is a master of the master, he must have something extraordinary, and the master might as well let him come out to see him, and his father is also interested in making friends. ”
"It's... The old man had a stubborn temperament, and the noble lord was noble, and the old man was afraid that she would collide with the nobleman. Master Fa Neng leaned forward to apologize, and the meaning of refusal was very obvious.
But he underestimated the thickness of Gong Qingcang's face: "It's okay, this father is just a down-and-out son, and he is not a nobleman, the master might as well let her come out to see him." ”
At this time, the master of Dharma Energy had nothing to say, and asked Huigen to invite Mu Qing.
……
"What? You said he wanted to see me? Why did he see me? I don't know him, so I won't go. Mu Qing listened to Huigen's words, pointed to her nose and was surprised, the last person she wanted to see at the moment was Gong Qingcang.
