Chapter Ninety-Seven: The Fishing Boat of the Micro Family
…………
While the golden red fish swam in the air, the pectoral fins were stirring in an orderly manner, and the treasure ship below was also slowly drifting into the distance, and the setting sun shone through the col and hit the deck of the ship, revealing a dazzling and warm reflection, and the view was full of brilliant twilight scenery.
The bow of the boat, Linglong looked at everything in front of her with a new curiosity, looked at the sky, pouted, and shouted "ah" outside, and finally after everything, she leaned her hands on the board and supported her chin, and quieted down.
"Lu Ming, let's take this boat directly to your royal capital?"
Beside her, Lu Ming looked slightly sideways at the girl who was reflected in the golden sunset light, At this moment, she was a lot quieter, her fair and translucent face exuded an indescribable tranquility, and suddenly she tilted her head slightly, squinted her eyes and smiled,
Lu Ming's expression moved slightly, and he wanted to skim his head and finally only stayed at the level of thoughts, but he reached out and stroked her hair fluttering in the wind a little uncontrollably, and said softly: "No, I just asked, the destination of this ship is not Zhaodu, so we have to go down at the next docking point of the ship, and when the time comes, there will be a special person to pick us up." ”
"There are still people to pick it up~"
Turning her head sideways, Lingling instead supported her head with one hand, raised her little face and asked with a smile, "Is it your exclusive guard as the king?" ”
"Sort of,"
Lu Ming recalled the winged birdmen who had followed him since he was a child, and he was a little speechless, but he still nodded slightly.
Unexpectedly, a dignified king's guard was actually a flock of winged birds...... Angel!
As a semi-traditional Oriental man, Lu Ming subconsciously felt a little unreliable for these Western birdmen to act as his guards, after all, in every book he read, those white cuties were basically indiscriminately killed.
White angels are often the five scum of war~
It really made him feel less secure.
"The king's guards are not the kind of people who wear sturdy armor and hold sharp swords in their hands, and then, after the king's order, step forward to resist the enemy without fear of life and death."
Linglong's eyes were full of curiosity, her free hand pinched her chin, thought for a while, and continued: "Just like us fire weavers, we know that there will be sacrifices to extinguish the earth fire, but we will still do it desperately, that is our mission. ”
"Lu Ming, am I right? Sense of Mission"
"A sense of mission~" Lu Ming was slightly stunned, and then said with a smile: "Maybe it's right." ”
Before it was really a matter of life and death, he didn't think that these so-called guards could help him, this world was a bit similar to the ancient environment of his previous life, but it was clearly different from that world.
The humanities and history here, the customs and customs, are full of fantasy and fantasy colors, but it can be said that the Classic of Mountains and Seas is a little different, just like those fire weavers, aside from their work of extinguishing the earth fire, they are really just ordinary people living in remote mountain villages.
As for the so-called sense of mission, this has to be cultivated since childhood, and what is engraved in the bones is not easy to change.
The thing of respect and humility was estimated to be useful when the royal family was at its peak five hundred years ago, but in the hands of the king who actually controlled only one city in the area, it is estimated that it is not very real.
Otherwise, Pingjiang Hou would not have thought of finding the existence of the god master, and the purpose of it can be imagined.
"What do you mean maybe that's right? Right is right, wrong is wrong. ”
Linglong snorted lightly, frowned slightly, and said with a slight dissatisfaction.
Lovely people, whatever they do, are lovely.
Her every sentence and action can affect the mood of others.
Probably Linglong is such a person...... Lu Ming couldn't help but smile lightly, stretched out his fingers and flicked her forehead, and only withdrew his hand when Linglong frowned and widened his eyes to threaten, turned his head to look at the sunset, and said gently:
"In my memory, I was not a relative of the royal family, I was a distant relative of the royal family, I lived in a small city on the northern border since I was a child, my father resisted the city lords of foreign tribes, and there was a group of warriors who could fight well."
"Among them, there is a special race called the 'Moon Feather Clan', the 'Moon Feather Clan' was born with wings and can fly freely between the heavens and the earth, but because it is far inferior to the wild alien race in other places except for flying, so in ancient times, the 'Moon Feather Clan' was often caught as a slave by lords and princes everywhere, as well as the menial work of messengers."
"Until my father's generation, the royal family declined, unable to help the border to provide military support, in order to resist the border foreign tribes, he temporarily recruited the 'Yueling clan' as a soldier under his command, unexpectedly, the 'Yueling clan' after countless years of torture, extremely cherished this only time to enjoy the life of a normal person."
"They were brave and skillful, and eventually became a great help to my father's command, helping him to hold the city."
Speaking of this, Lu Ming paused, followed his memory and stretched out his finger to the north, "Originally, according to normal development, I should have taken over as the new city lord after my father died of old age and retired. ”
"But you're a king now, so something must have happened, right?" Linglong looked up.
"Yes, the unexpected came suddenly and disrupted my original life." Lu Ming nodded lightly, stretched out his hand to change directions, and turned to the direction of the royal capital, with an inexplicable expression and a quiet tone,
"The king of Zhaodu died suddenly, and since the first king had no direct blood relative, he needed to choose a son from the side line to succeed him."
"And I, on the other hand, became the lucky one and was successfully elected to the royal capital and became the new king."
A king, even if there is no direct blood relative, there are no other royal children in the royal capital, but he has to choose a distant relative to succeed to the throne in the bitter cold land of the border.
It's really incredible, but logically speaking, the royal family has no clan and no direct bloodline, and it seems to be a matter of course to select a smart and beautiful person from the side line to succeed the new king.
But it is precisely this matter of course that makes Lu Ming feel weird, remembering himself in his memory, not two days after ascending the throne, his father who was located on the border also died unexpectedly.
The surrounding environment seems to be consciously or unconsciously creating a lonely king.
"You mean to say your throne is unstable?"
Following his words, Linglong frowned and said.
"No, it's not just that my throne is unstable, it should be that the throne of the royal family has been unstable since a long time ago, it's just because the Ming royal family has controlled this continent for a long time, and it has unimaginable cohesion, and all the education that the people's ancestors have received from their birth and growth, from habits to cognition, has been deeply rooted, and they know who the royal family above is."
"That's why the royal family can be lucky enough to support my generation."
"However, this habit is gradually weakening, and the most obvious is Pingting, the territory of Pingjiang Marquis."
Lu Ming also locked his eyebrows, leaving the weaving fire, he will face the mess in the royal capital, as he flips through his memories, the more he understands, the more worried he feels.
This is special, I feel that I may become the last emperor at any time.
And this is the feudal era, if you really want to change the dynasty, he doesn't believe that those princes will do anything to let the emperor of the previous dynasty take care of his old age.
The first half of his life as a monarch was very nonsense, first the lord's son, turned around and unexpectedly became a king, and then found that the king was an empty shelf, I thought that relying on his father's force on the border, it would not be too ugly, and within two years, this father lord also hung up.
The more Lu Ming thought about it, the more he felt, it was too conspiracy theory.
Sighing helplessly, Lu Ming turned his head to see the girl beside him, thinking about the operation of grinding powder with his hand when she transformed, and he was relieved.
Fortunately, although the traverser plug-in came a little late, it still came.
Linglong didn't think that Lu Ming was so nonsense in the first half of his life, but after listening to his story, she felt in her heart that Lu Ming's life as a king was not easy, which seemed to be completely different from what she imagined, a king who hugged him and did whatever he wanted, so whether it was from her heart or in other directions, she wanted to comfort him.
Linglong straightened her face and grabbed Lu Ming's arm, "Don't worry, in the future, I will cover you in the future." ”
“……”
Lu Ming glanced at the sympathetic girl, the corners of his mouth twitched slightly, he raised his arm, and reached out to pinch his face, but he was cleverly dodged by Linglong, and was a little stunned for a while.
Has this girl become smarter?
"Why do you like to pinch my face?" Linglong frowned, patted Lu Ming's hand, and couldn't help muttering.
"No way, you're so cute."
Lu Ming's eyes narrowed slightly, and he said with a smile, not at all as sad and sentimental as he was caught in memories just now.
It seems to have become a different person from just now.
"Really?"
asked first, and without waiting for Lu Ming to reply, Linglong immediately raised her mind and asked, "Why isn't it beautiful?" ”
"The word "beautiful" has been used badly, and you are a good baby in my eyes."
Lu Ming said with a smile.
"How do I feel that my rank here is getting lower and lower, as if I have become a child." Linglong frowned, looking at Lu Ming, the more she looked at it, the more embarrassed she became.
"Haha." Lu Ming laughed, laughed for a while, and raised his arm to lean on her shoulder, "Linglong, thank you for wanting to comfort me so much, but what." ”
"I'm a person who has been ravaged countless times by the smorgasbord of capital in the 21st century, and I don't pay attention to the plight of the royal family at all, and I can handle it with my backhand."
"......" looked at Lu Ming, who was suddenly disguised, Linglong couldn't keep up with this guy's brain circuit, and was stunned, and looked carefully for a long time before he was sure that Lu Ming was not joking, so he asked, "Are you really ...... Suddenly, so confident? ”
"I've always been very confident, I didn't tell you about my past, I just told a story to myself." Turning his head, Lu Ming looked at the sunset, with an indifferent attitude, and muttered:
"Rebirth I has been earned!"
"As for the rest, that's all."
Lowering his head, Lu Ming looked at the girl who couldn't keep up with the situation and was a little dumbfounded, and said with a smile: "To paraphrase a sentence from my hometown, wipe your nose first and then lift your pants, and then embark on the social road." ”
"The first half of that materialistic life has passed, and standing here today is a new fantasy self."
“…… You! Linglong looked at Lu Ming and stopped talking, the little head really couldn't keep up with the train of thought of this nervous person, but she felt that this kind of cranial nerve was abnormally familiar.
Stupid, insane, nervous.
That person is called Lu Ming.
"Well, I can't help it."
Twisting her eyebrows and thinking about it for a long time, Linglong didn't recall where that familiar feeling was, so she chose to empty herself to cooperate with him, made her hands into a trumpet shape, and shouted outside, "Ah! ”
"From today onwards, I will also be a new and cute Linglong!"
"How do you learn from me?" Turning his head sideways, Lu Ming was slightly dissatisfied.
"Cut,"
Linglong pouted and ignored this guy, because she was afraid that if she continued, Lu Ming would have a new topic.
It's obviously about guards, but it's really inexplicable how to talk about Lu Ming's past and draw a clear line.
……
Behind the two of them, on the deck of the ship, a middle-aged man with a pair of black mustaches and slightly shrewd eyes appeared at some point, looking at the two of them at the moment.
Lu Ming had a strong perception, and soon noticed that someone behind him was looking at him, patted Linglong's arm, and the two turned around.
"Butler?"
"Two guests, it's going to be night soon, please go to the house to rest." The butler smiled, arched his hand, and said softly.
"Can't you stay outside at night?"
Linglong asked.
"When did the fish boat of the micro-life family have this rule?" Lu Ming also asked.
"Not really." The butler smiled, a little helpless, and stretched out his hand to point to the second floor, "Let's tell you the truth, there is a distinguished guest above, who doesn't like to be noisy, the deck is empty, and the sound is far away, if the two of you want to chat and relieve your boredom, why don't I tell my subordinates to prepare some wine and food to go in?" ”
"In this way, we will not be embarrassed."
The butler lowered his body as he spoke, and his attitude was slightly humble.
Lu Ming looked at him and smiled, took Linglong's hand and walked to the back room, and said at the same time, "Then I will trouble the housekeeper." ”
Linglong was dragged by Lu Ming's big hand, slightly embedded in the hand, she was slightly silent, speechless all the way, until she followed Lu Ming to the wing room and couldn't help asking.
"What happened to that guy just now?"
Lu Ming didn't answer directly, he stretched out his finger and pointed to the wooden board under his feet, and said: "This boat belongs to the Weisheng Yan family, and the Weisheng Yan is the richest person in the whole Su River, and the person just now According to his own introduction, he is the housekeeper of the Weisheng Yan family." ”
"A richest man, a housekeeper, what's wrong?"
Linglong lowered her head and thought about it, but she didn't understand the question, but still looked at Lu Ming suspiciously.
"Weishengyan's home is in Pingting, which is the fief of the Marquis of Pingjiang." Lu Ming's eyes were gloomy, and he said unhurriedly: "And we are a ship on the fire, even if I give enough gold, his steward of a micro-raw inkstone family should not respect me so much if he doesn't know my identity." ”
"What's more, he also said that there were two distinguished guests upstairs."
"He's from the Marquis of Pingjiang?" Linglong came back to her senses, and suddenly exclaimed: "If you want to harm us, it's the same as bone food, right?" ”
Lu Ming shook his head slightly, nodded slightly, and looked out the window in Linglong's puzzled face, "It doesn't matter who he is, the important thing is that he picked us up on the boat, as long as tonight passes, I will understand whether he is an enemy or a friend." ”
