Chapter 73: Changping Jun's Mansion
The next day, after getting up in the morning, under Xi Xue's careful service, Mu Sheng looked at himself in the bronze mirror, carrying a long sword on his waist, ape arms and bee waist, and a Chinese face was heroic and extraordinary, even if it was really Changpingjun, he would have a good impression when he saw him!
Out of the house, stepping on the BMW, Mu Sheng swaggered to Changping Jun's mansion to run, this is the first time he went home openly, he used to sneak around and make himself dizzy, before the ink entered the back door.
When he arrived at the front of the house, Mu Sheng just wanted to say a few words, and when he saw the sword-wielding guard in front of the door looking at him vigilantly, Mu Sheng suddenly realized that the current guard did not know his current appearance, he would only habitually go through the back door before, and he had specially ordered the back door to come and go freely, and the guards at the front gate did not know him at all.
Mu Sheng had no choice but to honestly hand over the post and ask him to inform Wu Xie that there would definitely be no one to find himself!
Half an hour later, the guard was followed by a servant who ran to lead Mu Sheng to the Wuxie courtyard.
Along the way, Mu Sheng strode and the meteor directly left the person who led him behind, and the servant trotted behind him sweating profusely.
His own home, he couldn't be more familiar, Mu Sheng went straight to Wu Xie's yard.
The servant who led the way looked cloudy, thinking that he didn't know what the situation was, this person was actually more familiar than himself? It's weird......
Entering the courtyard gate, Mu Sheng saw that Wu Xie was playing against himself leisurely, and he was enjoying himself, and the new concubine he had received was also by his side to watch the chess game on the chessboard.
When Wu Xie saw Mu Sheng enter the door, he directly pointed his hand to the opposite side of the chessboard and said, "Liu Jun, come and fight with the old man." ”
Mu Sheng smiled bitterly and waved his hand again and again, "Mr. Wu, it's not that you don't know what level I am." ”
Wu Xie said casually: "That's it! I'll let you have three sons, how? ”
Mu Sheng said helplessly: "Okay! Sir, even if you let me be ten sons, I still can't win against you. ”
Wu Xie took a break and asked, "Childe, is this ranger life still to your liking?" ”
Mu Sheng nodded and said with a smile, "It's not bad, it can be said that I can't get enough, why don't I go to myself." ”
Wu Xie smiled and said, "It seems that the people on the prince's side trust you very much." ”
Mu Sheng smiled bitterly, "No, I'm a little surprised by how much they trust me, and to be honest, I'm a little embarrassed to stay there and deceive them." ”
Wu Xie stroked his beard and said with a smile, "You were born and died for them in Yuejun, you are worthy of their trust, Gongzi, you can mix with the prince to such an extent, it is indeed beyond my expectations." ”
Wu Xie fell and said, "I heard that by borrowing Wei Bao, there are many officials of the prince's faction who have been dismissed by His Majesty, and we have to work harder, by the way, it is much more convenient for Gongzi to return to the house now, you go to see Gongzi Xiu, I heard that the injuries suffered after the last conference have been much better." ”
"You mean to form an alliance with the Ninth Brother?"
Wu Xie waved his hand and said, "No, it's good for you to get closer to Gongzi Xiu, communicate normally, don't do anything, and don't take any promises from Gongzi Xiu to your heart." ”
"Well, okay, I see."
After a while, Mu Sheng frowned and asked again, "Sir, do you think I can really fight for the crown prince?" Or is it possible to go further? ”
Of course, Wu Xie understood the meaning of his words, that is, he was asking himself if it was possible for him to sit on the throne of the crown prince.
Wu Xie said with a solemn face, "Childe, to tell the truth, it is unlikely that you will be designated as the heir by Your Majesty, the foundation of my dynasty and the country is to establish a successor, and now Your Majesty is also the eldest son of the first emperor, Son, there are several brothers in front of you, the third prince Gongzi Kang was disgusted by His Majesty, and he can still compete with the current prince, just because he is the eldest son, that's it." ”
When Mu Sheng heard this, he was still a little lost in his heart.
Wu Xie looked at his eyes and explained, "I am not a virtuous person, which is conducive to the orderly inheritance of the throne, and will not cause a change in seizing the heir, and in His Majesty's heart, the two princes he values the most, one is His Royal Highness the Prince, and the other is the Nine Emperor Princes Xiu, even if we overthrow the prince, there is a high probability that the prince's position will not be your turn, but it is a wedding dress for someone else." ”
"In addition to the prince in front of this Gongzi Xiu, there was originally the Seven Emperors Gongzi ochre, Gongzi ochre was sent by His Majesty to Ling Xuanzong to go up the mountain to cultivate the Tao very early, the meaning could not be more obvious, he is already out, the throne is impossible to pass to him, after this prince, whether it is to establish a long and virtuous person, the only candidate is Gongzi Xiu, I boldly speculate, in fact, in His Majesty's heart, Gongzi Xiu is always the candidate heir after the prince, as long as His Royal Highness the prince does not make a big mistake, the position of the prince is still relatively stable."
"Childe, if you want to compete for the throne, not only to bring down the prince, but even Gongzi Xiu has to find ways to pull him off the horse, only if we bring down these two mountains, it is possible for you to be the prince, and you have an elder brother in front of you, the twelve princes, Gongzizhuo."
Mu Sheng said, "Then since I can't fight, then I might as well go to my cousin and emperor to go to the Yuzhen Sect to cultivate now." ”
Wu Xie said, "Alas! Childe, you are angry, this is not whether you want to fight for the throne, but whether Your Majesty wants to see it, this is the result that Your Majesty wants to see, as expected, Your Majesty will definitely be in favor of you in the future, but will gradually snub the prince, you have to be mentally prepared. ”
Mu Sheng stood up irritably, pacing back and forth, he hated being a marionette very much, acting exactly according to someone else's script.
Mu Sheng said to Wu Xie, "Why me? Why not some other prince? ”
Wu Xie said, "Because you still have a double identity, the personal disciple of the Yuzhen Sect, even if you fail to compete for the throne, it is a big deal to be demoted to a concubine and go to the mountain to cultivate, the crown prince will not really do anything to you because of the influence of the Yuzhen Sect, if it is other princes, it is difficult to say, the new monarch is on the throne, it is difficult to say whether he can save his life, you are now going to follow His Majesty's script, this is not up to you." ”
Mu Sheng knows that the emperor's mind is scheming.
Mu Sheng sighed dejectedly and said, "I'm really unwilling to be a knife in someone else's hand, even if he is my father." ”
Wu Xie smiled mysteriously and said, "Childe doesn't have to be arrogant, since Your Majesty has lifted you up, you have to behave well, maybe the willows will be bright, Childe may have a chance to enter His Majesty's eyes, and it is not yet known who will kill the deer at that time." ”
Came out of Wu Xie courtyard and went back to the inner courtyard, took off the human skin-mask Mu Sheng looked at himself in the mirror, returned to the desk, took out a bamboo slip and wrote a few words on the actor's self-cultivation.
Mu Sheng suddenly smiled and thought, too! What's the point? He is not a stunned young man, what capital does he have to compete with the leader?
Before you can make an inch, the old man has given you the title of king, and the tribute of three million dollars a year supports you, what else do you want to do? What kind of bike do you want? I don't know how to be satisfied, and I still want to compete for the position? Collect people's money and eliminate disasters, and if you receive benefits, you have to work.
Anyway, Lao Tzu is also half a ranger, as a Jianghu person, he pays attention to doing things, so let's act according to the script of His Majesty the Emperor! After surviving the past few years, the crown prince or prince will cultivate the throne, and he will go up the mountain to cultivate, what does he have to do with the flood?
To be honest, Mu Sheng really still misses the small days of cultivating with all the senior brothers in the Yuzhen Sect, that is really free and comfortable.
Now that he had figured it out, Mu Sheng stood up and sat down on the main seat to face the empty hall, and said, "The person who came is Liu Zhang of Orange County, what is the matter with meeting this gentleman?" ”
After speaking, Mu Sheng trotted again, stood under the hall, and saluted respectfully to the empty throne: "In Xia Cheng County, Liu Zhang, admire Changping Jun's ...... This one... This one... This character, I have come to serve in the hope that I can serve under the Lord's Sect. ”
Mu Sheng originally wanted to praise himself for a few words, but after thinking about it for a long time, he couldn't think of any suitable words, and he didn't have any credit, and he didn't have any particularly conspicuous deeds, and he didn't want to wear a high hat for himself? can only boast of his good character......
After speaking, Mu Sheng returned to the main seat and said to the air under the hall, pretending, "Well, Liu Zhang of Orange County, good!" I look at the young man's ape arm and bee waist, and his breath is long, but he is a person who practices martial arts? ”
Mu Sheng said, and trotted to the hall again, he respectfully saluted the lord, "Back to Changping Jun, I practiced martial arts at the age of eight, and now I have been in the Taoist gate for many years, and I have achieved a little success in cultivating the Tao, and it is an honor to be able to solve problems for the lord......"
Mu Sheng ran back to the main seat and said, "Okay! Liu Jun is actually a cultivator? In this way, you will follow Benjun in the future, as long as you work hard, Benjun will never treat you badly. ”
Mu Sheng ran to the hall again, bowed to the lord, and said gratefully, "The lord appreciates it so much, and he congratulates the lord with a sword dance." ”
Mu Sheng immediately drew his sword and swung it on the ground.
After a sword dance, he ran back to the main seat and just wanted to open his mouth to cheer, when a slightly frightened voice came, "Gong... Childe ......"
Mu Sheng was stunned when he heard this, and instantly pulled him back from a schizophrenic state to reality, he looked back, and his heart was broken, he was too involved in the performance just now, and he didn't see a big living person standing outside the lobby, and the person who came was his housekeeper Po Yun'er.
Yun'er covered her mouth with her right hand and looked at him with a ghostly expression.
Mu Sheng wanted to step forward to explain, but as soon as Yun'er saw him turn around, she immediately made a decision, turned around and ran.
Mu Sheng stepped up with an arrow and hugged her waist and forcibly pulled her into his arms.
Yun'er struggled hard, trying to push Mu Sheng away, she hurriedly said, "Oh, son, let go of me, I'll help you find Imperial Doctor Li to see if you have lost your mind and committed ...... again."
At this time, Yun'er suddenly reacted and glared at him, with a look of fear on her face, and said in a trembling voice: "No, no, Childe, were you ghosted just now?" It looked very scary just now, you have been talking to the air, no, no, this kind of disease is definitely not good for the doctor, you have to find a wizard to exorcise evil spirits......"
Mu Sheng said helplessly, "Yun'er, listen to me first, I'm not sick, I'm really not sick, and I don't have a ghost, you don't want to think about it, Lao Tzu is a cultivator, Haoran is righteous and protects his body, can he still be ghosted?" ”
Yun'er tilted her head and thought about it.
It was only at this time that Yun'er noticed that Mu Sheng was holding her in her arms, and suddenly a red cloud climbed up her cheeks, and her voice was much softer: "Childe, I know... That... What the hell was Childe doing just now? ”
Mu Sheng also found that it seemed that there was something wrong with hugging Yun'er at this time, so he quickly let go of her and explained, "Uh...... This one... This, just a kind of non-physical performance, you know? It's about simulating the inner workings of two characters, and then it's deductive reasoning, uh! That's probably what it looks like, you know I walk a lot, and sometimes I have to change my disguise, and I'm practicing playing different characters, you know? ”
Seeing that Yun'er didn't seem to understand, she didn't understand.
Mu Sheng hurriedly changed the topic and asked, "What are you doing with me?" ”
Yun'er said, "Son, the 200,000 gold in the treasury has been prepared, and a big car has been prepared, and today is the day for everyone to have dinner and eat hot pot together, I called Miss Chen and Mr. Wu." ”
Mu Sheng suddenly said, "Oh! If you don't say it, I'm almost forgotten, everyone hasn't eaten hot pot for a long time, let's go! Walk! ”
Of course, this is the living habit that Mu Sheng brought from later generations, and he will have a meal with everyone once a week to enhance revolutionary friendship, and of course he eats mutton shabu and hot pot that are improved according to the eating habits of this era, his favorite.
Hua Zilan, who participated in the dinner for the first time during the banquet, was full of praise, which was also expected.
After having dinner with everyone, Mu Sheng remembered that he would be a guest under his own door in the future, and it would be inconvenient to go back to the house often, so it seemed that he had to take Xixue into the house.
