Your Majesty, I am not worthy

Several months have passed since Rong Mu received the emperor's decree to pardon the three-year taxation of the disaster-stricken counties and counties in the south of the Yangtze River. minister.

Rong Mu's appearance in the south of the Yangtze River is a threat from the emperor thousands of miles away to the officials in the south. These broken-hearted people are trembling, fearing that they will be punished by Rong Mu if they don't do well enough. Self-denial and dedication to public service.

At the same time, Rong Mu resettled the refugees during the flood, and then paid attention to agriculture and mulberry, practiced education, and threatened the local tyrants. In less than half a year, Rong Mu was loved by the people in the south of the Yangtze River.

Now when it comes to the Prime Minister from Haojing, who doesn't say that he is clean and honest.

August [-]rd,? End of summer.

The south of the Yangtze River is just a beautiful scenery, Rong Mu came to Xijin, Lingqi County with a jar of wine in hand.

He came to Jinkou today to wait for General Hua.

A few days ago, the old general Fei Ge sent a letter saying that he would come to the south of the Yangtze River for a walk. Rong Mu didn't know how Chu Yuheng would respond to the old general's request to leave Beijing, but if the old general Hua could come, Rong Mu would naturally welcome him personally. With the scene of him carrying wine and riding a horse.

The wind was strong on the river, and the autumn wind was refreshing. Rong Mu stroked his mane scattered in the wind. With a relaxed mood, he watched the sails in the distance getting closer.

Amidst the sound of a dull "click" collision,? Finally, the boatman came across with a long stroke, and the black-covered boat docked and stopped.

Hua Zheng on the boat saw Rong Mu on the shore from a long distance away.

White clothes and black horses make people flamboyant.

"Ah Mu!"

This was the first time that Old General Hua called Rong Mu Amu, and everyone around Rong Mu who was familiar with him also called that.But when Old General Hua called him that, Rong Mu struggled.

Nervousness mixed with novelty, Rong Mu embarrassedly scratched the wine rope he was clutching, and mentioned the good wine he had obtained by accident before: "I have brought it for a long time to pick up the old general. Now go to the reserved tavern?"

Hua Zheng came here this time to see Rong Mu's, and the rest is not in his consideration, so Hua Zheng smiled when he heard the words: "It's up to you to arrange."

"Okay." Rong Mu looked calm, but the hot current in his heart was changing, from holding the wine to his right hand to the left hand holding the horse's rein, and then took Hua Zheng to the lively restaurant. There was a slight blush on his face.

The restaurant he chose was right at the ferry, so there were many banquet guests coming and going, even if Rong Mu settled in the highest box, he couldn't stand the noise below.

Waiting for the waiter to serve the whole dish, Rong Mu went over and closed the door, and the rest was just the long-lost greetings between the two.

There are many things to talk about, from the flood in the south of the Yangtze River to Huazheng's replacement of leading troops to guard the border. During the long hours of talking and laughing in Yanyan, the two of them were almost undrinked.

Rong Mu saw that there was a lot of wine in the old general's wine cup, and asked lightly with the bamboo chopsticks: "Does the old general not drink wine?"

"..." Hua Zheng still hoped that he could talk to Rong Mu more, so he let go of the drinks, "The capacity for alcohol is poor. If you eat too much, you will easily get drunk."

There are very few military generals who are not good at drinking, but most of the people Rong Mu encountered were like this, so Rong Mu didn't mean to laugh at the old general Hua, swaying the alcohol beside him, Rong Mu also said calmly: "I'm not good at drinking either. "

"Actually, His Majesty even asked me to bring a message this time."

Rong Mu's face remained unchanged: "What is your majesty's order?"

"It's not a political matter either. His Majesty wants to know when you plan to go back, Ah Mu."

"As a courtier, it is natural that there will be an imperial edict."

If Chu Yuheng never ordered him to go back, then he could keep covering his ears and not take the initiative.

Hua Zheng saw Rong Mu's meaning, and said with a smile, "Actually, His Majesty asked me to bring an oral order."

"Oral order?"

"Your Majesty said that the redundant officials in the south of the Yangtze River have not been settled, and he wants you to stay here, Mu."

The wine cup in his hand fell at the sound, and Rong Mu raised his eyes to look at the old general sitting opposite him, with an inconceivable look in his eyes: "Your Majesty won't urge me to return to Beijing?"

"No rush. Besides, His Majesty already knows."

Knowing one sentence made Rong Mu at a loss.

Know what?

Do you know that he is the son of the Hua family, or do you know that he is hiding from Haojing to keep the Hua family?

Ashamed in my heart, I will lower my posture.

After hearing the old general's explanation, Rong Mu couldn't calm down for a long time.

His biggest weakness was known by Chu Yuheng, but Chu Yuheng didn't take advantage of it to manipulate him. This is not like what the ruthless Chu Yuheng would do...

"But Your Majesty trusts me so much? I have already planned to muddle through the rest of my life, and now I have to thank Your Majesty for his mercy."

"You don't need to muddle along, because you are the one who saved His Majesty. It's just that His Majesty mistakenly took Wen Li as the savior at the beginning, and you, A Mu, had a high fever and forgot a lot of things."

The cold and indifferent suddenly broke clean, Rong Mu muttered to himself for the first time: "This is too ridiculous..."

"But these are all facts, and His Majesty already knows, and His Majesty also has you in his heart..."

Hua Zheng rubbed his hands, and continued to add: "You are in the south of the Yangtze River, so I don't know. Your Majesty has not gone to court for nearly a month after you left. First, he coughed up blood because of the fever. After finally recuperating, he went to heaven. You have an injury that fell down your back, Your Majesty wants to take all the injuries you have suffered!"

"Your Majesty is determined not to be entangled after suffering so much?"

Rong Mu didn't dare to think that there was such a good thing.

Hua Zheng didn't make a sound, but this silence already tacitly agreed that Rong Mu guessed the meaning of the emperor's words.

Rong Mu didn't want to have such a good thing, so he lightly smiled to dilute his original composure, Rong Mu half-hid the cold light in his eyes, and when he raised his head again, his eyes were only free and easy: "That's fine too."

Fang Yuan can't tolerate each other, he and Chu Yuheng shouldn't be together...

The old general had been living in Lingqi County for two months, during which there were occasional letters from Hao Jing, but they were all sent by Chu Yumi.

At the beginning, Chu Yumi asked him when he would come back, but then he seemed to know that he would not return to Haojing, and asked him to find some beautiful double-sided embroidery for her in the letter, and also brought the Shen Shumo made a bloody criticism.

While laughing, Rong Mu was looking for the best embroiderer in the south of the Yangtze River for Chu Yumi to give her embroidered clothes. The days passed by dealing with official duties, looking for strange things for Chu Yumi, and accompanying the old general Hua to travel around.

After more than two months, under the warm sun of the Little Double Ninth Festival in October, Rong Mu sent the old general back to Beijing.

This time the autumn colors were deep, the chrysanthemums were in full bloom, the sweet-scented osmanthus wafted along the road, and even the sky was blue. I specially brought some special products from various counties and counties in the south of the Yangtze River to the old general. Rong Mu sent the old general to the ferry.

Hua Zheng took the things prepared by Rong Mu and boarded the boat very quickly. When he said goodbye, he was able to control his reluctance: "Let's say goodbye. See if you are doing well now, and I will be able to see you die with a smile in the future." mother."

"Old general, take care all the way." Rong Mu smiled with a leisurely temperament, pure and warm.

"Take care too! Remember to take it easy in the future!"

With the low cry of the old general, the black-covered boat swings on the blue lake like jasper reflecting the sky, disappears before Rong Mu's eyes, and finally hides in the line where the water and the sky meet under the foreshadowing of the water birds soaring.

After staying at the ferry for a long time, the broken hair raised by the autumn wind covered Rong Mu's bright eyes, but the corners of his mouth were slightly raised.

What the old general said was his wish for the rest of his life.

When he advances, he struggles like walking on ice, and when he retreats, he can enjoy the shining sun and clouds, and the floating light and gold. In the days to come, he just wants to be a happy person.
