Rebirth: Picking up a beggar and being attacked

Shang Zhiqiu stood outside Shao's mansion waiting for the butler to invite him in. He was so confident that the butler would definitely ask him in in a low voice. As expected, the butler soon wiped the cold sweat from his forehead.

"Purify master, my lord, my lord invites you in."

"Is this what the prince meant?" Shang Zhiqiu asked.

"Yes, yes." The butler nodded hurriedly.

"Is that what the prince meant before?" Shang Zhiqiu asked again.

"This, this..." The butler hesitated and didn't know how to answer. What he said before was indeed not what the prince meant. If he had told the truth, he would have committed a felony for falsely passing on the prince's will. But if he had told lies, He falsely preached the will of the prince again, no matter what he said, he would not get any benefit, but would suffer instead.

Shang Zhiqiu nodded his forehead, "Butler Shao, don't pretend to be smart in the future, or be careful with your head."

"Yes, yes, yes." The butler only dared to answer with his head down. He knew that the relationship between the monk and the prince was definitely not simple, and he couldn't offend him. "Master, please come with me."

"Wait." Shang Zhiqiu is not in a hurry now, he said to the refugees in front of the housekeeper: "Folks, the prince is seriously injured, so many of us go in to see him, the prince will be exhausted, if you believe me , but entrust me with everything that will be delivered to the prince, and I will help you hand it over to the prince."

The refugees glanced at each other, and felt that what Shang Zhiqiu said made sense, so they handed over the pickles and miscellaneous grains in their hands, "Then, master, we know that these things are not good. It's valuable, the prince doesn't like it, but this is also our intention."

"The prince regards money as dung, and these things of yours are indeed the best rewards for him."

Shang Zhiqiu accepted the refugees' belongings one by one, but the housekeeper felt disgusted after seeing it, and when he entered the mansion, he said to Shang Zhiqiu: "Master, the prince will not want these things, so I should throw them away." Bar."

"How do you know the prince won't want it? Did the prince tell you?"

The housekeeper suddenly realized that he had said something wrong, and hurriedly said: "No, no. Yes, I think so."

"It seems that you didn't listen to what the poor monk said to you just now." Shang Zhiqiu couldn't help shaking his head, he knew that Mu Ruixi hated such a person the most, and the housekeeper seemed to be dying soon .

The butler wiped off the cold sweat from his brow, and said, "Master, please follow me."

"please."

He was led directly into the study by the butler, and Mu Ruixi also entered the study after being served by Zhan Yi, and after seeing Shang Zhiqiu, he cupped his hands and said, "Brother Shang!"

"Brother Zhan." Shang Zhiqiu also cupped his hands to return the salute to Mu Ruixi. After Mu Ruixi sat on the stool beside the round table, he knelt on the ground and said, "See Prince Mu."

Mu Ruixi hurried forward to help her, "Hurry up, please, you and I are worshiping brothers, so such big gifts are unnecessary."

Shang Zhiqiu didn't refuse him, Mu Ruixi supported him, and he got up directly, "You are a prince after all, I should kneel down as a commoner."

"Brother Shang."

"My lord, I have become a monk now, but you can call me clean."

Mu Ruixi did not expect that Shang Zhiqiu would give up his family so soon, but... "Brother Shang, since you have become a monk, why do you still have your hair?"

"The abbot said that I was not bound by the world, and he didn't want to shave my head. He just asked me to be a lay disciple. But I have my Dharma name, so I call it Jing."

"So that's how it is." Mu Ruixi felt a little strange. In the last life, Shang Zhiqiu was a real monk, but why in this life...

Could it be because of his rebirth that many things have changed?

"My lord, my lord."

"What's wrong?" Mu Ruixi, who was thinking about something, was interrupted by Shang Zhiqiu's voice, and looked at him with some doubts.

It is rare for Shang Zhiqiu to see him like this, and he felt a little surprised, "Brother Zhan, what are you thinking?"

"Ah, it's nothing. It's Brother Shang, no, master, what's the matter with you coming here this time."

"I heard that you are leaving here. Let me come to see you and see you off by the way..." Shang Zhiqiu brought all the pickled vegetables and miscellaneous grains given by the refugees and put them in front of Mu Ruixi. Your thanks."

Mu Ruixi looked at the big and small bags of pickles and dry food, and thought that he had more or less eaten them when he was fighting in Liang Peicheng in his last life. These pickles are actually delicious, especially when used for bibimbap. It is a specialty of the southwest region. He used to eat roasted pheasants with these pickles, and the taste was good.

Mu Ruixi was very happy. He accepted the gifts from the refugees. He thought that on the way back, he must let Zhan Yi try the pheasant mixed with pickles. The children would love it very much and would stuff their mouths full like a hamster full.

Thinking of the cute look of the child when eating food, Mu Ruixi's facial expression softened a lot.

Seeing him like this, Shang Zhiqiu shook his head and smiled, "Which lover is the lord thinking about?"

Mu Ruixi knew that Shang Zhiqiu was teasing him, so she wasn't annoyed, she just said: "This king has already quit sex, so where is his lover? Brother Shang, this fate is not over yet, I don't know which lady it is for. "

"No, no, it's not Miss, she's a young novice monk who hasn't been in love yet."

Mu Ruixi's mind turned, and a person's name was about to come out, "Could it be..."

"Brother Zhan, I want you to keep this matter a secret for me. I don't want to scare him."

"Naturally, it's just that you are sure you want to be with a Buddhist."

Shang Zhiqiu nodded firmly, "Wine and meat have passed through the intestines, and the Buddha kept them in his heart. I just like him, and it's not that I don't have Buddhas in my heart."

"Since Brother Shang has made up his mind, it's inconvenient for me to advise."

"Thank you." Shang Zhiqiu clasped his fists to Mu Ruixi, "I don't have anything to send the prince off this time, so I will give him a piece of advice."

"what?"

"In the battle for crown prince, you can hide as far as you can."

"I don't want to get involved in this crown prince dispute."

"Shang knows it. But just because you don't meddle, it doesn't mean that others think you don't meddle, especially your compatriot brother. My lord, please be more careful. Also, my lord, please stop being beautiful Beauty misleads people." Shang Zhiqiu stared at Mu Ruixi closely, which made Mu Ruixi blush.

He waved his hand and said, "This king has really given up on beauty."

"One more thing, if the prince really doesn't want to be the emperor, then Mu Ruiqing can support him."

Shang Zhiqiu's words stunned Mu Ruixi for a moment, "You mean my third brother?"

"Yes."

"But he is not from the concubine."

"But you probably don't know that he has already won over a group of ministers in the court."

"This..." Mu Ruixi really didn't know.

"He is very strategic, and he can be a wise king."

"I never thought about it." Mu Ruixi knew that he was not suitable to be an emperor, and it was absolutely impossible for Mu Ruishi to do it for him. Never thought about the third brother born to this side concubine.

Shang Zhiqiu stared at Mu Ruixi for a long time, and finally said something, "Don't you not want to listen to what Shang said."

"You said."

"My lord, you are decisive in killing and attacking. You have made many enemies. You don't know how to win people's hearts. You are not suitable to be an emperor. Your eldest brother is sinister and vicious, and hangs out with corrupt officials. But your third brother is different. He can be ruthless when he should He also knows how to use people well, and he has the generosity of a king, he is a natural monarch. The future of the Mu country is best entrusted to him." Shang Zhiqiu said.

After hearing Shang Zhiqiu's words, Mu Ruixi was not angry. He nodded and said, "You're right. I didn't care about the court at all. I wanted to take Zhan Yi to the ancient town of Jiangnan after the war ended. I have been struggling to find someone who can be a monarch, so I will think about it when you mention it now."

"It's good for the prince to think like this. However, I don't know who Zhan Yi is, but he has the ability to make the prince think about it." Shang Zhiqiu said with a smile.

For such a rare brother, Mu Ruixi naturally patiently explained to him, "He is a little beggar I picked up on the way back to the imperial city from the war, and now he is my book boy. This king, I like him very much."

"Oh?" Shang Zhiqiu immediately thought of the little attendant who covered his face with a veil, "I think, his appearance is also top-notch."

Mu Ruixi nodded, "You guessed it right, his face is comparable to my mother's."

"No wonder the prince treats him so well."

"I was kind to him not because of his face, but because he saved me." Mu Ruixi played with the jade cup in his hand, and suddenly raised his eyebrows to look at Shang Zhiqiu, "To be precise, it should be from the previous life." Saved my life from dying."

"!!!"

"Brother Shang, you don't have to hide some things from me." Mu Ruixi stared closely at Shang Zhiqiu, and he vaguely felt that the monk should have the same experience as him, "Could it be that it's because of the impermanence of black and white and what happened?" Wrong, so I let you live again?"

Shang Zhiqiu shook his head with a smile, "No, it's not that black and white are impermanent. I haven't seen any ghost messengers after my death. Maybe it's because I'm talking about the relationship between Buddhists."

"That……"

"I don't know exactly why I was reborn. I just remember that the barbarians broke through Liangpei City. Jingchen died trying to save him. I lit the explosives and died with some soldiers of the barbarians. When I woke up, I was killed by you." Take a punch."

"It's so! Liang Peicheng is so easy to break!"

"That's right. Of course, thanks to your eldest brother." Shang Zhiqiu sneered, "At that time, the emperor died, and Mu Ruishi killed you to usurp the throne, but he didn't expect that Mu Ruiqing had already been proclaimed emperor. He led his troops to the barbarians, and he joined forces with Shao Guang to help the barbarians break Liangpei City!"

"Bastard!" Mu Ruixi was in a hurry, and slapped the water cup and teapot on the table to the ground, "How can there be a scum like Mu Ruizhi in the royal family!"

"My lord, when you go back to the imperial city this time, Mu Ruishi and the Taishi gang, please do a thorough investigation, and don't let the same thing happen again!"

"That's for sure!" Mu Ruixi snorted coldly.

"If something important happens in Liang Pei City, I will send you a message with a carrier pigeon. Please don't worry."

"Ah."

"Shao Guangqian was expelled, and Mu Ruishi and the Taishi and his gang were probably alarmed. Please be careful, my lord."

"Don't worry, this king will definitely settle the score with Mu Ruishi." Mu Ruixi's face was ashen. What Mu Ruishi did has exceeded his tolerance limit, but now he can't find any evidence to convict him. Now it's really embarrassing.
