Chapter 56: Entering the Palace
Hearing Feng Mu's shout, Xiang Nanzheng's big sword suddenly stopped in mid-air, and he was extremely puzzled in his heart, what this kid said, no matter how he heard it, it didn't feel like a child could say it.
But he didn't think much of it, and asked out loud, "Why do you say he's lying?"
Feng Mu said loudly: "I am not related to him, my thirteenth uncle is gone, it was this person who took me away, I want to find my thirteenth uncle." ”
He tried to say it as simple as possible, and after the three big men heard it, the doubts in their hearts deepened, what is the origin of this child, why did the eunuchs in the forbidden palace come out to abduct him at risk, there must be some big conspiracy in this.
Although they were born in the grassy world, the three of them are not fools, and they naturally feel that this child has an extraordinary identity, and if they really hurt him, maybe the family will suffer disaster.
Cold sweat was already breaking out on Xiang Nanzheng's forehead, and the hand holding the knife was also trembling slightly, but the temple man Mo flew out with a palm at this time.
He spurted a mouthful of blood to the south and fell to the ground gasping for breath, but it was not a fatal wound.
The temple man Mo stared at the other two coldly, and said loudly: "Give me this child quickly, if you delay the affairs of the adult in the palace, you can't afford it." ”
The third child was a little worried about the south, his tone was much calmer, and he said, "If we hand over this child to you, can you promise not to tell you about it?"
The temple man Mo was also worried that the two people were forced to do something to hurt the child, so he nodded and swore at the moment: "Our family swears here, if we tell the fifth person about today's incident, it will be a thousand cuts." ”
The three brothers put their minds at ease, after all, killing this child is very likely to affect this family, in case this little guy is the illegitimate son of a royal relative in the people, then don't you dig your own grave?
Traveling south and handing over the child to the temple man Mo, Feng Mu was glad in his heart that he would not die, but this eunuch wanted to take himself to the palace, wouldn't that place be more dangerous than the rivers and lakes?
A farce ended like this, the temple man Mo took Feng Mu to ride a horse, and Luoyang Sanjie looked at their disappearing backs, and the blankness on his face became a little heavier.
After this time, although there were still some obstacles encountered along the way, the temple people were able to avoid them very skillfully, and no longer confronted those people in the rivers and lakes.
Because this matter is originally confidential, the more people who know, the more dangerous it is. If he is held accountable from above, instead of taking credit, he will be convicted for it.
After a period of running, the temple man Mo quietly entered the capital with Feng Mu.
Feng Mu didn't remember that he had come here in a hurry three years ago, but he was taken away non-stop and fled all the way south.
After all, he was still a baby at that time, and his consciousness was not yet fully awake. Now that he has seen the prosperity of the capital, he feels how hard the life of the fishermen on Meizhou Island is.
After dusk, night begins to fall.
Some large families have hung red lanterns outside their doors, while ordinary people go to bed with their lights off early.
Feng Mu looked at the lights in some of the low houses, and then heard the slight sound of reading, and knew that it was the scholars who were studying hard day and night in order to gain fame.
In this era, Baguwen is popular, and to write a good article under rigid and almost harsh regulations, you really need a level, Feng Mu admires it from the bottom of his heart.
The temple man Mo had already changed into a small black robe for him, and at this moment, his whole head was shrouded in the robe, walking on the dimly lit street, which was really indescribably weird.
In front of them, the temple man Mo led him into a small alley, and there was no light around him, and it was pitch black.
I only heard the temple man Mo put his finger to his mouth and blew a secret signal, and the originally dark alley was immediately lit up with lanterns.
And in front of it, there is a carriage that has been prepared for a long time, richly decorated, and more luxurious than the carriage of ordinary large families.
Those people with lanterns were wearing flying fish suits and embroidered spring knives at their waists, and Feng Mu at this time didn't recognize them as the brocade guards who would often deal with them in the future.
Feng Mu was picked up by the temple man Mo and got into the carriage, the coachman drank softly, and the two horses went straight to the direction of the palace gate.
Several brocade guards trotted all the way, carrying lanterns in their hands, both to watch their feet and to look around for danger.
After more than half an hour, the carriage drove outside the city gates, and the soldiers guarding the gate stopped them. The temple man Mo took out the waist card from his arms, and after the soldiers guarding the door saw it, they hurriedly let him go.
The carriage drove a little further, but because it was too close to the Forbidden City to be qualified to enter in the carriage with their status, they got out of the carriage.
The temple man Mo held Feng Mu in his arms and walked briskly along the way, while the brocade guards carried lanterns to light in front of them, and they didn't say a word, and they rushed to Renshou Palace tacitly to each other.
At this time, a figure appeared out of thin air, blocking their way, only to hear the spy voice say: "Stop, you sneaky, where are you going?"
Temple Man Mo's face was already pale with fright, and in the dim light of the lantern, it seemed that even the muscles on his face were a little distorted.
Several brocade guards didn't dare to speak, and they all lowered their heads, hoping that the man would not recognize them, and it was better not to even remember what they looked like.
The temple man Mo bowed down and shouted, "Grandpa Zhang." ”
The person who came was Yang Yiqing, Yang Tinghe and others to join forces to defeat Liu Jin's eunuch Zhang Yong, although this person was one of the "Eight Tigers", but he was not as evil as Liu Jin.
Zhang Yong cleared his throat and asked, "Let me ask you, where are you going at this time?"
The temple man Mo was already dripping with sweat on his forehead, and he didn't dare to hide it anymore, so he revealed Feng Mu who was hiding in the black robe, and whispered: "The villain finally found the child by the order of the Queen Mother, and is rushing to recover his life at this moment." ”
Zhang Yong's originally peaceful face immediately showed a look of horror, and he asked in a trembling voice, "Is this the child?"
The temple man bowed down and said: "Such a big thing, the villain does not dare to deceive, it is this child." ”
Zhang Yong's originally serious face showed a smile and said, "Can you let me see?"
The temple man Mo held Feng Mu in his arms, Zhang Yong lifted the black robe on Feng Mu's head, he had been too tired for a long time, and he was already asleep at the moment.
Zhang Yong couldn't stop nodding, and muttered in his mouth: "Not bad, yes, there is a heroic righteousness between the eyebrows, this child's life is very good, and his fortune is profound." ”
"Can the villain leave?"
Zhang Yong waved his hand and said, "Go quickly, don't let the Queen Mother wait." ”
The temple people Mo bowed and bowed, and several brocade guards carried lanterns and bowed their hands, and then walked in the direction of Renshou Palace with the temple people Mo.
Outside Renshou Palace, there were two palace maids on duty, and when they saw the temple people Mo seemed to be holding something, they symbolically blocked it.
Mo Mou, the temple man, whispered: "Go and report it, and say that Mo Zi, the deputy eunuch of the sixth grade, also asks to see him." ”
After a palace maid heard this, she went to report it, and then ran out and led the temple man Mo to take Feng Mu into Renshou Palace.
