Song Mu raised his head and glanced at Li Dong, seeing that he looked calm.
"Your Highness, this person is too arrogant. What if..."
"After all, this is Chang'an. The Great Wall guards Baoshan, and there are lecturers and scholars to protect us. I think no one can take random actions."
Saying this, Li Dong just looked at Song Mu, who lowered his eyes slightly and finally nodded.
"Then please, Your Highness, come down to your residence and have a sip of tea."
Li Dong nodded slightly, and the expression on his face seemed to be relieved a little at this moment. After hearing the order, a group of Hanlin troops turned around and headed towards Song Mu's residence.
Soon a group of people arrived in front of Song Mu's residence. Seeing such a large formation arriving, many people around looked at it. They were even more surprised when they saw Song Mu getting off the carriage.
Some people recognized this group of soldiers, and they were crossing their sides one after another at this moment. However, before they could see the situation clearly, the surrounding area had been cleared.
Song Mu took the lead to get off the carriage and immediately went to the house.
Seeing Gu Qingqing doing something in the courtyard, Song Chengming was still reading next to him. Song Huaitong seemed to have just returned from school and was talking to Gu Qingqing.
When they saw Song Mu coming in, the whole family looked over, and Gu Qingqing asked in surprise.
"Ms. sir, why did you come back so early today?"
Song Mu looked around and then said quickly.
"Qingqing, a distinguished guest is here. Go and bring out the tea that Lao Taishan gave me before."
As he said that, he was helping the two children pack their things, but at this time there was a sound coming from the door.
"Song is giving lectures, so don't bother making any arrangements. Just come and have a sip of tea."
Li Dong's figure suddenly appeared in the courtyard. At this moment, everyone looked around and saw a young handsome man walking in with a warm smile on his face.
Li Dong's ordinary clothes today are just the aura that the royal family has always cultivated, and they immediately make people feel that he is someone special.
Li Dong held his hands towards Gu Qingqing this time and slowly walked towards Song Mu. Song Mu quickly stepped forward to introduce him.
Song Huaitong knew the etiquette, so he came forward to offer his hands. Song Chengming, who was next to him, also hurried up and stood on Song Huaitong's side, saluting in the same manner.
Seeing that Song Mu's family was so polite, Li Dong smiled and sighed.
"Song Lecturer is a master of teaching and education. He deserves to be from a scholarly family."
"Dongjun is so complimentary. I have been away from home for many years and have been taught by my family members. It can be considered that I will inherit my mantle in the future."
Song Mu gave Li Dong a simple name and explained it casually when introducing him to his family.
Gu Qingqing was not afraid of the stage. Seeing Song Mu being so respectful after a long time, he also knew that the visitor was an extraordinary person, so he immediately offered tea.
Song Mu and Song Huaitong's father and son were left in the field to receive them. Li Dong took a few sips of tea and asked a few questions after seeing Song Huaitong's boyish clothes.
When I learned that Song Huaitong had been in the Tongsheng realm for some time, I was astonished for a while.
"As expected, he is the heir of the number one scholar and is very talented."
As he said this, Li Dong asked a few more questions, and suddenly asked if he could go to Gongyuan to study.
Song Huaitong showed rare maturity and politely refused Li Dong's inquiry. Song Mu was quite satisfied with this.
Li Dong didn't pay much attention to this, but he couldn't help but feel a little emotional when he spoke. As he was talking, Song Chengming ran out of nowhere, grabbing some food in his hand and heading towards Song Huaitong.
Just as Li Dong was passing by, the two looked at each other. Song Chengming felt a little timid and immediately threw himself into Song Mu's arms.
Seeing this scene, Li Dong seemed to be much more relaxed. This time he actually had the leisure to tease Song Chengming and take him to buy candied haws.
Seeing Song Chengming's excited expression, Song Mu didn't know what Li Dong was doing in this situation, so he spoke this time.
"Dongjun, it's been a while since I came out this time. Do you think..."
Li Dong came back to his senses, then nodded and ordered someone to bring in a pack of snacks. Then he stood up reluctantly and said goodbye. Song Mu quickly followed.
But after leaving the door, Li Dong was unwilling to get on the carriage. He was actually pacing here at this moment. The early spring sunshine was shining brightly. Li Dong walked forward, telling Han Linjun to stay away. Only Song Mu followed. behind.
"Song Lecturer, how big is Chang'an? How big is it outside Chang'an?"
Song Mu didn't know, he just looked at the other party at the moment, but Li Dong sighed slightly.
"I was raised in the palace since I was a child. My mother was still alive when I was young, and she told me a lot about what she saw outside."
"But outside Chang'an Imperial City, there were only a handful of people when I came out."
Li Dong kicked a stone away from his feet and his voice became a little deeper.
"I know what my status is. The Taifu and the officials have taught me how to be a king since I was young, but I..."
Li Dong stopped slightly and raised his eyes.
"But there's always a little bit of fear in my heart."
Song Mu paused, looked at Li Dong, then looked around, and said quickly.
"Your Highness, you must not..."
"I know Song Lecture, but I really feel a little upset. The Taifu is the person closest to me, but now in this huge imperial city, I can only have a few words from my heart."
"Apart from my father and my sister, I only have to teach you."
Li Dong, who said these words, seemed to be filled with countless melancholy at the moment, and his words were full of confusion.
"I also want to be like giving lectures. I have worked hard since I was a child, made acquaintance with thousands of close friends, fought for injustice, and written for beautiful women, even if I travel around the world holding a sword."
Li Dong said this as if he had lost his entire life in the past twenty years.
Song Mu just remained silent.
People always have their own helplessness, and people will envy other people's lives.
Li Dong smiled in relief again, but this time he turned to look at Song Mu, his eyes full of sincerity.
Suddenly Li Dong bowed towards Song Mu and raised his hands, and said in a deep voice.
"In the future, please give lectures without hesitation."
Seeing this, Song Mu immediately bowed and raised his hands, and said in fear.
"His Highness has made a serious statement. Mr. Song has inherited the Holy Will. Today, the Grand Tutor has affirmed it, so he has given all his money to teach him."
"Don't say that you will reach the top in the future, but you must also try your best for Wen Dynasty and His Highness."
After receiving Song Mu's promise, Li Dong seemed to be finally satisfied. He stepped on the carriage again and headed towards the imperial city.
Song Mu sent Li Ao to the imperial city, and now he walked out alone, feeling a little emotional in his heart.
The difficulties of the royal family cannot be understood by oneself. Although Li Dong is not that mature yet, he is not a self-destructive person, and he is also a talented person.
But from this point of view, he is now standing on the side of the East Palace.
After thinking like this, Song Mu had already walked out of the imperial city, but the next moment, Song Mu's figure disappeared on the street like an afterimage.
Not long after, Song Mu had caught a man wearing ordinary robes in an alley.
The long knife in the man's hand had been broken into two pieces.
And immediately a figure fell down from the eaves on one side, and the words fell at this moment.
"The number one scholar has mercy on me, we are the Qingtian Guards."
As he spoke, a token flew towards him. Song Mu reached out to take it. When he saw it was the sign of the Qingtian Guard, he immediately let go. When he saw the person coming, he suddenly frowned.
The person who came was actually Shen Long.
