Chapter 230: Re-entering the Imperial City
The imperial city can be said to be the symbol of the royal family of the Central Plains, the imperial city is alive for a day, and the Central Plains is still the Central Plains. Therefore, although the imperial city is not located in the center of the Central Plains, in the eyes of the people of the world, this is the center of the Central Plains and the top priority of the entire Central Plains.
Because of this, everyone in the world, whether they are literati or martial artists, everyone has a longing for this imperial city in their hearts, no matter what kind of person they are, they actually want to come here to see it. No matter how much they say about their disdain for imperial power and the imperial court, how can they not want to see this first city in the world?
That's right, the Imperial City of the Central Plains is also the first city in the world.
But today, the first city in the world was really shocked - a general, a father-in-law, one of the four great gods in front of the emperor, plus a group of people from the rivers and lakes. Such a team should not have shocked them so much. But the facts are in front of them, and they can't help but believe it. The fact is that such a team has indeed attracted the black and white teachers of the imperial city: when the imperial prince - Shenhou Zhuge Zhengme, the real speaker of the capital's super strength six and a half halls - Di Feijing, and the helmsman of the Dugu valve - the old lady You Chuhong, these high-ranking big people in the past are actually waiting at the gate of the imperial city today to welcome this group of people. Along with them were all the high-level members of the Ghost Praetorian Guard, the largest player gang in the Imperial City.
If it is said that Zhuge Zheng and I came out because of chasing life, it is indeed not impossible, but what about Di Feijing and You Chuhong? There doesn't seem to be anyone on this team who can get these two to come forward. No matter how high the status of the playboy is, You Chuhong has ignored the world for many years, even if Dugu wants to show goodwill, at most, the head of the family will come forward. As for Di Feijing, he is even more of an underworld figure, how could he come out to greet the people of the court?
But it just happened, and what surprised everyone even more was not this, but the arrival of these people, not because of the three noble people they imagined, but a man in Tsing Yi who they had not noticed.
It's no wonder they didn't notice that the man didn't ride a horse for some reason, but was hanging out with those martial arts people at the back of the team.
Anyway, they really saw it, this young man just came out of the back of the line, and Zhuge Zheng and I, who were still talking to the grandfather, immediately greeted them.
Mu Xiaojiu's martial arts are actually not enough for them to be so enthusiastic, in fact, these three people's enthusiasm for Mu Xiaojiu is actually different.
Di Fei came because of the friendship between the two. Although it is said that their six-and-a-half-hall is Cai Jing's faction, and they have always been at odds with Zhuge Zheng, but Mu Xiaojiu is friendly with both sides at the same time, which does not seem to be in the interests of their six-and-a-half-hall. But in fact, with Mu Xiaojiu in the middle as a barrier, coupled with the emperor's checks and balances above, the two parties can barely maintain a balance now without any major friction.
Zhuge Zheng will come, firstly, considering that Mu Xiaojiu and Di Fei are good friends, and they don't want Cai Jing to have such an assistant from now on; The second is because the emperor now attaches great importance to Mu Xiaojiu, and even mentioned Mu Xiaojiu's name more than once in conversations, plus he also cherishes his talents, after several cooperation between the two sides, he likes Mu Xiaojiu's martial arts qualifications and astute mind very much, and now that he has the opportunity to close the distance, he will naturally not miss it.
As for the reason why You Chuhong came, it was the simplest. Speaking of cooperation with Mu Xiaojiu, their Dugu Valve made much cheaper money than the Shenhou Mansion. After all, it was Mu Xiaojiu's action that helped them bring down the Yuwen valve. This matter alone is actually enough to make their entire Dugu valve tempted, if they continue to get closer to Mu Xiaojiu, they can't say how much help they will have in the future.
To put it bluntly, except for Di Feijing, the other two people more or less had a lot of affection for Mu Xiaojiu. Only Di Fei was shocked, and now he really didn't want to pull Mu Xiaojiu closer to this battle in the capital. Just now, he even said directly and bluntly to Mu Xiaojiu, hoping that as long as he followed the emperor, he would not go to the troubled waters of other forces.
This move also made Zhuge Zhengjing and You Chuhong look at Di Fei with admiration again, they really didn't expect that Di Fei was so sincere to Mu Xiaojiu. Of course, Di Fei's shocking behavior actually did not hinder the two people's plan to win over them - they knew very well that His Majesty had said more than once that this was his person, and it was better for others not to do anything.
What does the emperor mean, as close ministers of the emperor, how can they not know? The emperor is clearly saying: I don't care if your factions fight against you on weekdays, but this person is what I am looking for, and if any of you dares to hit his attention, then just wait for the hardships.
Here, Zhuge Zheng and I pulled Mu Xiaojiu to chat hotly, but over there, the dude was squinting his eyes and walked over, without caring about the face of these three people, and said directly: "Come on, three, you are not in a hurry, our family is still in a hurry, you put it in advance, talk later, let our family take Mu Gongzi into the palace first, otherwise Your Majesty will be unhappy, and we will all have hardships." You say, "Oh, don't you?" ”
Zhuge Zheng smiled awkwardly, and then arched his hand, "What the playboy said is reasonable, then we won't bother for now." ”
The playboy smiled with satisfaction, and then glanced at Mu Xiaojiu, "Mu Gongzi, let's go?" ”
Mu Xiaojiu looked at Huang Ama and Xuanyuan Thirteen Young Men who had already started talking over there, and after seeing that there was no problem, he nodded, first hugged his fists towards Zhuge Zheng and the three of us, and said "See you later", and then saluted the playboy and said, "There is a flower father." ”
The playboy waved his hand, signaling that he was out of the way, and then rode a horse with Mu Xiaojiu and went directly into the city.
And at this time, the city has already discussed it.
"Eh, did you hear that? There was a big incident at the city gate just now, I heard that the real helmsman of Zhuge Shenhou and Dugu Valve, Old Lady You Chuhong, and Di Fei, the talker of the six-and-a-half-minute hall, all ran to the city gate to pick up a little-known young man! ”
The other person glanced at the man who spoke with disdain, and said disdainfully: "What is a little-known young man, let me tell you, the one they went to pick up, but the first place in the decisive battle at the top of the Forbidden City last year, and now the famous wine boy Mu Xiaojiu on the rivers and lakes." ”
The man who spoke before was stunned for a moment, "Mu Xiaojiu? That Mu Xiaojiu who messed up with the big yuan? ”
"Nonsense, otherwise there would be that Mu Xiaojiu!"
Although it is said that good things don't go out and bad things spread thousands of miles, in a sense, in fact, most of the time, no matter whether it is good or bad, as long as it can become gossip, it will often spread quickly. Especially in ancient times, when there was no entertainment, these after-dinner conversations were often more enjoyable and enjoyable.
Therefore, with such a thing as the city gate, Mu Xiaojiu's fame has increased again.
But now Mu Xiaojiu doesn't know about it, and even if he does, he won't care too much. Because right now, he is facing one of the most powerful men in the world.
This person looks like he is about the same age as Mu Xiaojiu, and he should be a year or two older than Mu Xiaojiu. But the momentum on this man's body is completely different from Mu Xiaojiu's, this man's body has a natural nobility and majesty, if it weren't for Mu Xiaojiu's big scene, he wouldn't dare to look up at this person.
This person is naturally the saint today.
For some reason, he chose to see Mu Xiaojiu in the imperial study, and he didn't dress very formally, just wore ordinary civilian clothes. Of course, this is usually only for the identity of the emperor. Although it is just an ordinary black robe, but the workmanship and materials are extremely extraordinary, pinching the gold wire and walking the silver thread is naturally needless to say, just the carving of the dragon pattern on the clothes is obviously from the hands of famous artists, lifelike, luxurious and extraordinary.
Mu Xiaojiu had no doubt that the emperor's clothes should be the best of the last martial arts cheats book. And this dress is just the emperor's most ordinary civilian clothes.
Sword eyebrows and starry eyes, this is undoubtedly the most conspicuous place on the emperor's entire face, the eyebrows are sharp, the eyes are shining, and a pair of Danfeng eyes have raised his majesty vividly, forcing people to feel a little intimidated when looking at him. This kind of momentum makes it difficult to imagine that this Ninety-Five Venerable is only in his twenties this year, and many times, some emperors who are in the prime of life may not be able to cultivate this kind of momentum.
It is no wonder that today's Central Plains can develop better and better, and even in the matter of banditry, there is still the will of the people.
Take a look at it again, the appearance of this ninety-five lord has also inherited the good genes of the royal family, although the figure is not heroic, but the abundance of handsomeness is not a problem.
In fact, it was not only Mu Xiaojiu who was looking at this majesty, but also looking at Mu Xiaojiu.
To tell the truth, Mu Xiaojiu is not good-looking at all, that is, the kind of goods that are thrown into the pile of people and immediately disappear from everyone, at most, he can afford to be a good look. The eyes are not like those written in the strange talks, the eyes are like cold stars, shining brightly.
However, Mu Xiaojiu did have a pair of peach blossom eyes, which can be regarded as good-looking, but because he thinks too much about things, not only is he not bright enough, but he is often a little confused.
At this time, these two people finally looked at each other, and it was not clear whether they were satisfied or not, anyway, in the end, it was the emperor who opened his mouth first.
