Traveling through the bright moon in the Qin Dynasty

Chapter 4 Mao Desheng

Not long after, they came to a mansion. There was a plaque on the door with two big characters Mao Mansion written on it. It seemed that this was Mao Desheng's private mansion.

Following Mao Desheng into the mansion, he came to a hall.There was already a table of banquets in the hall, all of which were exquisite meals. When Lu Ming saw it, his stomach immediately started to rebel, and the sound was like thunder.

I saw Mao Desheng backed away from the left and right, knelt down in fear and said: "My subordinate Mao Desheng kowtowed to the prince, there were too many people just now, I hope the prince will forgive me for the offense."

Lu Ming was a little puzzled at first, and then relieved. It seemed that Mao Desheng had secretly defected to the Kingdom of Jin, and then he sighed again. Even the officials guarding the capital of the Song Dynasty had already defected to the Kingdom of Jin. Not far away.

Since he was his subordinate, Lu Ming no longer had any scruples, walked quickly to the table, and started to eat in big mouthfuls. Of course, he did not forget to ask Mao Desheng to stand up first.

Mao Desheng looked at the eating and drinking movements of the princes of the Kingdom of Jin, and wondered in his heart, could it be that the conditions in the Kingdom of Jin are so bad, and why the princes of the whole country eat so badly.

Lu Ming didn't pay attention to Mao Desheng's expression, since Bao Xiruo brought him a meal in the morning, he never came again, probably because he was afraid of being discovered by Yang Tiexin.After walking for so long just now, Lu Ming was already starving.

But even if he noticed Mao Desheng's expression and knew his thoughts, Lu Ming wouldn't care, because the Southern Song Dynasty was not far from extinction. If he wanted to continue to be prosperous and rich, the Kingdom of Jin was his only choice. He would not offend him. started.

Soon, Lu Ming finally had enough to eat. He looked at Mao Desheng and asked, "Where are my king's guards?"

Mao Desheng bent down and said respectfully: "The guards of the prince are now living in the embassy. After the prince disappeared yesterday, the guards of the prince asked the officials—no, it was the emperor of Song Dynasty who sent troops to look for the prince. Fortunately, the prince was lucky and returned safely. .”

After Lu Ming listened, he thought about it. It seems that Mao Desheng has no doubts about his identity. He should have met Wanyan Honglie before, so Lu Ming directly ordered: "There is a spare room in the mansion. I want to rest for one night. Tomorrow Take me to the embassy."

Mao Desheng replied: "Your Majesty, please wait a moment, and my subordinates will make arrangements." Then he left the hall. Soon, a maid came in with a cup of tea, and then backed out. It was good tea. After taking a sip, my mouth was full of saliva, and the taste was mellow, so Lu Ming couldn't help but drink a few more sips.

Lu Ming thought in his heart that a prefect of Lin'an has such good things, so what good things does he have as a prince?But these estimates can only be known after returning to the territory of the Kingdom of Jin.

After a while, Mao Desheng came in, bowed and said, "My lord, the arrangement has been made, please follow me." As Mao Desheng came to a room, the room was cleaned, Lu Ming waved his hand to Mao Desheng back down.

After asking the maids to wash up, they were also asked to retreat and lie on the bed. Lu Ming began to think carefully. Now that he has come to this world, what should he do?Should he ascend to the throne step by step by relying on this identity, or learn martial arts and become a generation of martial arts masters?
But if you are an emperor, it is a bit dangerous, like the Emperor Duan of Dali, not to mention his concubine being abducted by others, even Qiu Qianren can enter the palace and kill the prince.Although he is not his own son, it can be seen that for those martial arts masters, the imperial palace is a place they can enter and exit at will, at most they should be careful.

Lu Ming didn't want to be so aggrieved, and if there was a martial arts expert to assassinate, as long as he was careful, he might succeed.Even if you recruit some martial arts masters, you can't stop them. The key is that these martial arts masters can't stay by your side all the time.

So no matter how strong others are, they are not as strong as yourself. Besides, if you learn martial arts to the extent that you can practice like Zhang Sanfeng, longevity is not a problem. Besides, if you reach the innate longevity increase of a hundred years, if you continue to practice, you may live forever.

Thinking of this, Lu Ming made up his mind and started to learn martial arts, but he couldn't give up his status as a prince. You must know that the resources of the palace can save him a long time, and those treasures that increase his skill can be found by the power of the palace. .

Speaking of treasures that increase skill, Liang Ziweng's precious snake can be regarded as a treasure.When I return to the palace, I must send someone to find him. Even if I can't find him, I still have to get his prescriptions and cultivate a few precious snakes myself.
After thinking about it, Lu Ming fell asleep in a daze.

On the second day, it was almost noon when Lu Ming woke up, and the wounds on his body had already been treated. Lu Ming couldn't help but feel good about Mao Desheng. The gate of the city seems to be very popular with the above, but this person is not loyal enough and cannot be used much.

"Come here," Lu Ming shouted, it's not that Lu Ming wants to enjoy the servant girl's service, but his own status has to force him to do so.

The door was pushed open, and a group of maids came in and began to wash and wash Lu Ming. Lu Ming asked casually, "Where is your master?"

A maid with a round face replied: "The master is in the front hall, but the master has ordered that the Lord wake up and notify him immediately, and the master is probably on his way now," Lu Ming nodded.

After a while, Lu Ming finished washing.As soon as the maids withdrew, Mao Desheng came in, knelt down and said, "Forgive me, my lord, please forgive me for treating wounds without my permission."

Lu Ming smiled and said: "It's okay, you have not only done nothing but meritorious service in dealing with this king's injury. On the day the Song Dynasty falls, this king will definitely ask for credit for you in front of the emperor."

Mao Desheng was overjoyed, and said again: "I have set up a banquet, I invite the prince to the banquet, and after the prince goes to the banquet, I will send the prince to the embassy in a lowly position."

Lu Ming nodded and stood up. Mao Desheng respectfully led the way. When he reached the hall, the table was already full of food.The banquet looked richer than last night, which whetted Lu Ming's appetite.

After the banquet, Mao Desheng prepared two sedan chairs and sent Lu Ming to the embassy. Along the way, the scene on the street was almost the same as in modern times. It is indeed the most prosperous dynasty in ancient times. bustling.

After a while, the sedan chair came to a place, which was the embassy. After getting off the sedan chair, there was already a group of people waiting in front of the embassy. Judging by their attire, they should be from the Kingdom of Jin.

The first person saw Lu Ming coming, his face was happy, he knelt down and said, "Congratulations to the prince for his safe return."

Lu Ming waved his hands and said, "Get up, follow me in," and then turned to Mao Desheng and said, "Master Mao, I have something to go in."
