Chapter 22: The Nine Heavenly Fairies
This is really a difficult problem, if the Dajin Kingdom greets the prince of the East Palace of the Beiyue Kingdom with the proper etiquette, I am afraid that it will cause the dissatisfaction of the subjects of the Beiyue Kingdom, but if you want to greet it with the courtesy of the king, it will cause the dissatisfaction of the subjects of the Dajin Kingdom, and there is a dilemma between advancing and retreating, what should be done is the best? This stumped the ministers in front of the imperial case.
"This prince of the East Palace wants to come to Dajin as an envoy of the festival, just to provoke a big war again, what to do at that time, I already know in my heart." When the words fell, I saw Sima Mo sneering.
The ministers looked at each other, never really understanding the meaning of these words. The so-called imperial heart is difficult to guess, and it is true.
It wasn't until the ministers withdrew from the imperial study that Sima Mo raised his eyebrows, "Come out." ”
Sima Mo's voice fell, and he saw that the person who was originally hiding in the shadows suddenly flew in front of the imperial case.
I saw that he was dressed in a strong suit, tall and tall, and he looked powerful, but in fact, his identity was a secret guard.
The emperors of the past dynasties would have several secret guards of their own, and the so-called secret guards were only hidden in the shadows and did not let people know their identities. The role of the Dark Guard is to be able to secretly protect the emperor, once the emperor is in danger, the secret guard will appear immediately, and in addition to protecting the emperor, the secret guard will usually do things for the emperor.
"How did you do with what I asked you to investigate?"
"The subordinates have found out." The dark guard bowed his hand, his posture humble, but his face was expressionless.
"Say!" Sima Mo ordered in a deep voice.
"The subordinates found out that Murong Xiunu is a native of Linjun County, and her father is the county magistrate of Linjun County, because her mother was the top famous prostitute in Linjun County, so Murong Xiunu has been criticized by the people in the county since she was born, and she has not been out of the door, and she has not stepped out, but two years ago, a strange thing happened to Murong Xiunu."
"What's strange?" A hint of eagerness flashed in Sima Mo's eyes.
"According to what the people said, Murong Xiunu was originally illiterate in big characters, and then suddenly seemed to be a different person, not only going in and out of the bookstore every day, but also giving clothes and medicine to the people of Linjun County, and even strongly recommended the people to read more, for this, all the people were full of praise, and later from the mouth of the county order of Linjun County, it was said that the reason why Murong Xiunu changed was because of the blessing of the Nine Heavens Fairy."
"Apparition blessing?" Sima Mo's dark eyes narrowed slightly.
……
……
A scent of flowers came from outside the open two gates, and once the summer solstice passed, the weather became muggy, but tonight, the stars were dotted and the cool breeze gusted, but it relieved a lot of the stuffiness.
The candle flame flickered on the table, and a slender figure fell to the ground.
Sitting at the pear blossom table, Murong Jin held a book in his hand and looked intent. seemed to see the interesting content of the book, and saw the corners of her lips slightly raised.
Until she finished reading the whole book, at the moment when she closed it, she breathed a sigh of relief, but the corner of her eye seemed to detect a burning gaze not far away, she looked up, only to see a tall figure outside the door at some point, she was startled. This man, why is he here again?
Seeing that Murong Jin's eyes seemed to be stunned, Sima Mo raised his eyebrows and stepped into the house.
Murong Jin hurriedly got up and Ying Ying bowed, but he wondered in his heart, what was he doing here?
"Get up." When the words fell, Sima Mo's dark eyes fell on the book on the pear flower table, "Reading a book?" ”
"I have nothing to do to read some books and pass the time." Murong Jin replied respectfully.
