Biography of Emperor Mo

That night, Yao Xuanxia only sat down and chatted with Lu Yingmo for a while, and then left, leaving Lu Yingmo to sleep peacefully in the guest room alone.The next day, Lu Yingmo felt much calmer, and the two went to do serious business.

The two entered a teahouse.Go up the black spiral staircase to the second floor.

A group of big businessmen had already covered up the entire upper floor of the teahouse, and it was full of guests.They are all a group of old men in their 50s and [-]s with pot bellies, and they all exude the greedy atmosphere of business uncles.

"Hi, eldest son!" Seeing Yao Xuanxia, ​​they all raised their hands in a salute.

Yao Xuanxia raised her hand in return and said with a smile, "Hi everyone."

Among the big businessmen, the fattest and most blessed one is named Jiang Sheng, and he is the richest businessman in Chang'an City.Seeing Lu Yingmo who came with Yao Xuanxia, ​​Jiang Sheng asked strangely, "Excuse me, who is this?"

The handsome man in purple smiled friendly, clasped his fists and said, "Lv Yingmo, king of Xiaye County, met you all!"

"Ah!" Jiang Sheng took a few steps back in fright, with a panicked expression on his face, "It turned out to be the third prince! It's the grassroots who can't see Mount Tai! I hope the third prince will forgive me!" After finishing speaking, he knelt down on the ground and knelt down.The other people were also terrified and wanted to kneel down.

Lu Yingmo quickly supported Jiang Sheng's elbow, and said with a smile, "Excuse me! Get up quickly! I can't bear such a big gift!"

The two big businessmen next to Jiang Sheng, one named Yin Fu and the other named Wen Huan, were also well-known businessmen in Chang'an, and they all bowed their heads politely.Yin Fu said: "Caomin has never seen the third master. Although I know that the third master is the imperial envoy sent by His Majesty to Chang'an to handle the grain price, I never thought that I would meet the third master here." Wen Huan said: "I think the third master will definitely It must be for this."

"Exactly." Lu Yingmo's eyes were smiling, and the corner of his mouth was filled with a smile, looking at them with kindness, "I hope you will lower the price of food."

"This...it's impossible for us to do business at a loss." Jiang Sheng still apologized, and looked at him firmly, a little embarrassed, but also a little confident, and refused, "We hoarded and bought food in good years, just for today's famine. This is the nature of businessmen, you can’t blame us. If the price of grain is lowered to the usual price, we will lose 3 taels of silver. We cannot be willing to suffer such a loss.”

"Of course I don't blame you." The smile in Lu Yingmo's eyes grew stronger when he looked at them, "It's the nature of a businessman to do business, but I think the business of buying and selling grain is too small. I wonder if you are interested in following them. I'm talking about a bigger business?"

Jiang Sheng was surprised by Wuming, "May I ask what kind of big deal the Third Prince wants to talk about?"

Lu Yingmo raised his eyebrows and smiled, "The throne!"

Jiang Sheng never thought that he would say these words from his mouth, and his heart skipped a beat, "What do you mean?" He couldn't stand still, and almost fell backwards.

Lu Yingmo stepped forward to hold his elbow, pulled him back and stood upright, "If you wait to help me ascend the throne, how much more than tens of thousands of 3 taels will you earn in the future?"

"This..." Jiang Sheng's heart was moved suddenly. He glanced at Lu Yingmo, and then turned his eyes away, "But... if the prince or King Xiang ascends to the throne in the future, what should we do if we settle accounts with us?" As a businessman, always take into account the greatest risks and consequences when doing things.

"This is Chang'an, not Wuwei." Lu Yingmo's eyes were particularly bright and shining, and the corners of his mouth were raised, "Chang'an's surname is Yao, not Lu. The Lu family has no control over your place."

"Chang'an's surname is Yao, not Lu." Jiang Sheng never thought that the third prince of the Lu family dynasty would dare to say such words, and he admired his personal charm, and his demeanor is really extraordinary.However, he still has a question, "If we want to bet, why don't we choose to bet on the prince or King Xiang?"

"Because Yao Xuanxia chose to bet on me." Lu Yingmo looked at Jiang Sheng firmly and said with a confident smile.

The eyes of all the big businessmen moved to Yao Xuanxia.

Yao Xuanxia walked to Lu Yingmo's side, nodded and said, "Yes. I have already chosen to bet on the Third Prince!"

This sentence is like a reassurance pin, putting a thousand catties down in the hearts of everyone.

As soon as these words came out, all the big businessmen immediately lowered their heads and stroked their cheeks, falling into deep thought.Businessmen are best at calculating, and they are calculating the gains and losses here.

North China General's finances and taxes have always relied heavily on Chang'an merchants, and Chang'an merchants' interests have always relied on North China General. The two are closely related, and neither can do without the other.In the North China General's Mansion, North China General Yao Yizhong is a typical warrior who never cares about these business chores. The second son Yao Xuanrao is still young and has never shown himself in front of others. Only the eldest son Yao Xuanxia has the deepest friendship with them. deal with.Now, even Yao Xuanxia was on Lu Yingmo's side, so it was hard for them not to stand in line with Yao Xuanxia.

Suddenly, Jiang Sheng thought of something, his eyes swept away instantly, looked at Yao Xuanxia, ​​and said in surprise: "Young Master, could it be that you came together with the Third Prince for the sake of getting the position of North China General in the future?"

"Yes." Yao Xuanxia thought to himself, the big businessman is really clever, and he deduced it so quickly.

Lu Yingmo also thought to himself, this old fox is really not simple.

"If the third master succeeds, then the eldest son will also succeed. At that time, Guanzhong, Longyou, eight hundred li Qinchuan, and half of the world will support our Chang'an merchants." Yin Fu said incredulously.This temptation is too great for them, and they simply cannot resist.

"Emperor, North China General, all stand on our side..." Wen Huan's eyes widened, and he couldn't believe what he said, "That's terrible."

Immediately, all the merchants shouted together: "Assist the Third Prince! Assist the Third Prince! Assist the Third Prince!" "Deal! Deal! Deal!"

Lu Yingmo and Yao Xuanxia looked at each other and smiled, they knew they had succeeded.

Jiang Sheng took the initiative to hold Lu Yingmo's hand, "deal! Don't worry, the third prince, the price of grain in Chang'an City will be exactly the same as usual tomorrow morning! This 3 taels of silver is our gift to the third prince! After the meeting gift is given, we can give ten times 3 taels to honor you, the Third Prince!"

"No need, the ten times should be given to those in need." Lu Yingmo said softly with a smile.

Coming out of the teahouse, Lu Yingmo and Yao Xuanxia clapped their palms together, "Successful!"

The two walked back together on the road.

Lu Yingmo jokingly said: "Joke, 'second son', look at the businessmen just now, the second son of North China wants to compete with you? In the next life!"

Yao Xuanxia couldn't help laughing, "He is the eldest son after all."

"Even the eldest son is not enough to be called the 'Eldest Son'." Lu Yingmo shook his head disdainfully, "Only the eldest son of a prince can be called an 'Eldest Son'. He is just the eldest son of a general."

"Okay." Yao Xuanxia agreed casually.

"In my opinion, you should be called 'Elder Son'." Lu Yingmo suddenly looked serious, and looked at him fixedly, "Anyway, sooner or later, I will definitely make you an 'Elder Son'."

Sooner or later, I will definitely make you the successor of General North China.

This is an unquestionable affirmation.

Yao Xuanxia felt it again, it was this kingly demeanor that made everyone around him willing to submit to Lu Yingmo.He didn't know what to say, "Thank you, Your Highness." He could only answer like this.

"Your Highness, what Your Highness? It's very eloquent." Lu Yingmo rarely showed dissatisfaction.Really the first time.

"Your Highness is Your Highness." Yao Xuanxia said lightly.The first "Your Highness" refers to a person, and the second "Your Highness" refers to the prince. Lu Yingmo clearly understood the meaning of his words.

"I think it's strange to call you 'Young Master Yao'." Lu Yingmo walked over from his side, "This king will give you a nickname and call it 'Shizi', okay?"

"Okay, thank you Your Highness."

From then on, Yao Xuanxia became the eldest son.

His biological mother died when he was three years old, leaving him with no memory at all.Playing with a group of his companions since he was a child, he has never received the warmth of family affection.Others said that his mother was just a concubine of his father and had no status.The aunt rejected him since childhood and doted on her own son.

He is a concubine, and his younger brother has never been favored at home. The father treats the two sons fairly, but he still values ​​Yao Xuanyuan more.There's no way, Yao Xuan is a descendant.This "Shizi" really flattered him.

"Look at the two young masters who are well-dressed, thin and chic, and they are rich people from a big family. Hurry up and hand over all your belongings, otherwise, you will die!!!!!!!!!!"

When he came to his senses, he realized that the two of them had been surrounded by a gang of thieves.

This group of thieves who robbed them were obviously a group of native bandits. They were all tall and big, with sly eyebrows and fierce eyes, and they were definitely not kind.The two looked at each other, and roughly scanned each other with their eyes. There were ten people in the other party, and they surrounded them.

"In Chang'an, it seems that you don't even know who I am. Even I dare to rob, no wonder I will be a bandit for the rest of my life." Yao Xuanxia said in a cold and heartless voice.He took a step forward and stood in front of Lu Yingmo, "Third Highness, leave this to me."

"Okay." Lu Yingmo nodded.

In the next instant, Yao Xuanxia had pulled out the long sword she was wearing and rushed out to kill the bandits one by one.The superb swordsmanship and the speed at which the light fell made the bandit's head fall to the ground before the bandit could react, turning into broken limbs on the ground.

Lu Yingmo held the hilt of the sword in his hand. At first he wanted to draw out the sword to fight like last time, but he never took any action.He stood here quietly, watching the man in front of him bravely protect him.For the first time in his life, he had this feeling: he liked being protected by Yao Xuanxia, ​​and felt very at ease.

At this time, the last bandit raised an ax from behind and rushed towards Lu Yingmo to attack. Yao Xuanxia noticed it. He retreated extremely quickly, squatted in front of Lu Yingmo, put one hand on the ground, got up and ran again, and rushed out with a sword Pierced the opponent's heart.

Blood poured out like a gush!

Lu Yingmo looked at the picture in front of him with mixed emotions in his heart.It was the same last time, when his best friend was pierced through the heart by an enemy.Now, it was Yao Xuanxia who pierced the enemy's heart with his sword.

The tables turned.

It was really mixed feelings.

Yao Xuanxia had already killed all the bandits, he turned around slowly, his blue and white robes had all turned into blood red, and blood poured down the ground.Lu Yingmo was startled, covered his mouth, and took a few steps back abruptly, as if he didn't recognize the person in front of him.

Yes - this is the true face of indelible blood.Yao Xuanxia thought in her heart.No matter how much he pretends to be an official son, he is the god of death who has stained his hands with countless fish, took countless lives and killed countless people.

This is the true face that he has been hiding all this time and has never been shown in front of Lu Yingmo!

He was a soldier who fought on the battlefield, and even he himself could not count the number of people he had killed.With these two hands, he raised the knife and dropped the knife, and killed countless people with his own hands.

The bloody him is the real him!He is not an elegant and noble official son, he is not such a person at all!

"Are you afraid?" Yao Xuanxia looked at the large red area on the ground, "Your Highness, are you afraid of me like this?"

Lu Yingmo finally put down his hand covering his mouth, "What?"

Yao Xuanxia looked up, "Blood bathing is my real side. To tell you the truth, I have killed many people. Many, many people. Let me ask you, are you afraid of me?"

The eyes of the two meet in the air.

After a long time, Lu Yingmo sighed: "Don't be afraid. Soldiers, that's how they are."

At that moment, he accepted Yao Xuanxia's inner dark side.

Yao Xuanxia sent Lu Yingmo back to the imperial envoy's office.This mission has been completed, and he has prepared chariots and horses for him to escort him back to Beijing.In order to avoid the recurrence of the last assassination incident, he sent a full 100 soldiers from the North China Army to accompany him. In this way, safety can be fully guaranteed.

Yuan Song, Feng Xiao, and Xue Xing had already boarded the car, while Lu Yingmo said goodbye to Yao Xuanxia on the ground.Lu Yingmo made a bow, "Farewell."

He turned back and walked to the carriage.He told himself that he must not look back.It was the first time for him to have such a mood: parting, reluctance, not wanting to part.But he pretended to be nonchalant, for fear that Yao Xuanxia would see the clue.

He walked forward all the way, and he didn't know how many steps he had taken. Suddenly, Yao Xuanxia stopped him, "Wait a minute!"

He turned around, "What's the matter?"

"I'll go to Wuwei to help you." Yao Xuanxia smiled calmly, "I'll go with you."

His eyes widened in shock.
