Lu Meng nodded and said, "Yes!"
The boy nodded and said, "She is quite pretty."
Seeing the little boy talking like this, she felt a little annoyed, thinking that he was deliberately teasing her.
If these words were spoken by an adult man, they would be words of praise, but coming from the mouth of a ten-year-old child, they inevitably have a sense of ridicule.
The boy took out two ingots of gold from his arms and put them on the table, and then said: "As long as you listen to me, these golds will be yours!"
He was quite generous with his actions. There must be no man in this small county who is as generous as him.
Lu Meng's eyes immediately lit up, and she was no longer angry or ashamed. She hurried forward and picked up the two ingots of gold, with a smile on her face.
Lu Meng looked at the little boy with a smile on her face and asked, "I wonder what the young master wants from me?"
"Go and change these clothes first and find something dignified to wear."
"Is good!"
Lu Meng immediately went into the curtain to change her clothes. As a brothel girl, the clothes she wore were used to seduce men, so naturally they were not very dignified. She searched for a long time and finally found something that was decent and decent. After changing his clothes, he slowly walked out of the curtain and stood in front of the little boy.
The little boy frowned slightly, looked at her and said, "Although it's still far from enough, it's still acceptable. Can you recite poems correctly?"
Lu Meng looked embarrassed, then smiled and said: "This little girl has never learned any poetry since she was born in a poor family. She went to a brothel and learned some, but they were all elegant poems that were not worthy of the stage."
The little boy frowned slightly and said in confusion: "Since it is an elegant poem, why can't it be put on the stage?"
He was still a child, so naturally he didn't know that the "elegant words" Lu Meng said were actually vulgar words to add to the fun.
When Lu Meng was asked by him, he didn't know how to explain it. He suddenly looked embarrassed, and then said: "Actually, it's just some vulgar things..."
When she said this, the little boy also understood that the so-called "elegant poetry" was not really elegant. He said: "My mother is proficient in poetry, lyrics, songs and poems. How can you do this..."
Hearing this, Lu Meng felt more and more confused. Did this little boy come to the brothel to find a girl or a mother? Then he pursed his lips and smiled and said, "I don't understand, what does your mother and I have to do with each other?"
The little boy said seriously: "My mother is a beauty, dignified and elegant, and proficient in poetry and songs. I need to find someone to pretend to be my mother. I heard that you are the most beautiful woman in the local area, although you are still smaller than my mother." I missed it by a few points, but I barely passed.”
Lu Meng smiled awkwardly, and then said: "Haha! I wonder why the young master wants me to pretend to be your mother?"
The little boy suddenly said seriously: "Let me ask you, do you want to have enough food and clothing in the future, and be prosperous and wealthy from now on?"
"Of course I want to! But how can a lowly woman like me have such a chance?"
The little boy said: "If you have great ambitions, how can you belittle yourself? Now that there is an opportunity in front of you, I wonder if you dare?"
"what chance?"
"A chance to become a princess."
"What? Young Master, I...I heard you right! You mean the imperial concubine? You...you are not joking with me! Lu Meng is a prostitute, how could she have such a good life? Besides, even if she does, By this chance, Lu Meng is no longer a young girl, so how can the emperor like me?" Lu Meng asked in disbelief.
A proud smile appeared on the little boy's lips, and he said: "Of course I'm not kidding you. Do you know who I am?"
Lu Meng shook his head, and then said: "Although I don't know who the young master is, my generous spending and extraordinary conversation show that you are not an ordinary person."
A childish smile appeared on the little boy's face, and then he said: "My name is Zhao Yu, but my true identity is the son of King Zhao Teng."
Lu Meng couldn't help being shocked when she heard this. She looked at the little boy in front of her with dumbfounded eyes and said tremblingly: "What...what did you say? You are actually the little prince?"
Zhao Yu nodded and said, "That's right."
Then he added: "My father met my mother when he was traveling in the palace. My mother's name is Jing Wei. Although she was born as a commoner, she was well-educated and beautiful. They fell in love very quickly, and later they had a relationship. Because my mother was born as a commoner, she is not worthy of my father at all. My father's several suggestions to take us back to the palace were blocked by Queen Sikou, so I have not been able to return to the palace until now."
After hearing his story, Lu Meng couldn't help but be shocked. She didn't expect that he was actually His Royal Highness. Looking at his weak appearance, he was just a ten-year-old child, so he felt pity and said softly: "Your Highness Your life experience is really pitiful."
Zhao Yudao: "However, my father has not treated us badly. He has still given us a lot of gold and silver over the years, so that my mother and I can live without worries. Not long ago, we received a secret letter, and the content of the secret letter was that my father had not long ago He was injured by an assassin before and has died."
"Ah - what? You mean King Zhao Teng has..." Lu Meng was so frightened that she hurriedly covered her mouth.
Zhao Yu nodded and said:
"King Yi is dead, and now all the kingdoms are fighting, and everyone is watching. The palace has chosen to keep the mourning secret, and now King Yi's position is vacant. Queen Sikou has no children. According to the palace rules, the new King Yi must be chosen from among several princes. , several princes have grown up, and they all have their own family power, so the Sikou family will definitely lose power in the country."
"In order to protect herself, Queen Sikou decided to make me king. She recently sent a secret letter asking my mother to take me into the palace. I am still young and have no power to rely on in the palace. Queen Sikou wants to use our strength. , to stabilize her power in the palace."
Lu Meng nodded and said: "It is rumored that Queen Sikou is ruthless and ruthless. The power of the Sikou family is overwhelming. Now that King Yi dies, Queen Sikou will definitely lose power. In order to protect herself, she has to let you and your mother enter the palace. Little prince, you are still young. If you want to save your life in this vortex of power, you must be controlled by Queen Sikou, she is really a powerful woman!"
Zhao Yu looked at Lu Meng in front of him and saw that she could say these words. He couldn't help but admire her, so he nodded and said: "That's right. Alas, it's a pity that my mother's life is so miserable. When she learned about the death of my father, He fell ill and died three days ago."
Lu Meng said sadly: "Your mother must be an infatuated person. She could have entered the palace with you and enjoyed the glory and wealth, but it's a pity..."
Zhao Yu nodded and said: "Soon, the palace will send someone to take us back. Now that my mother has died of illness, I will definitely be attacked by different forces when I go to the palace alone. Queen Sikou will definitely regard me as a tool for her to fight for power. Even if If I can really become the King of Yi, I will be nothing more than a puppet emperor manipulated by others. Once Queen Sikou's power is consolidated, she will definitely take my life."
Lu Meng nodded and said: "Although I am not as smart as you, the little prince, I have seen all the warmth and coldness of people in the brothel, so I naturally understand your worries, little prince. So you hope that someone can pretend to be your mother and protect you. Until you reach adulthood?"
Zhao Yu nodded and said:
"Instead of becoming Queen Siko's child, it would be better for me to find a fake mother myself. My father is dead, and now no one knows what my mother looks like, and all they care about is that I have the blood of an emperor."
"If you agree, you can enter the palace with me. Then you will be the biological mother of the new king, and you will have endless enjoyment in the palace. When I grow up and have the ability to compete with all forces, I can return it to you. Freedom, when the time comes, you can fake your death and leave the palace, change your name, and I will give you inexhaustible wealth. Wouldn’t it be infinitely better than the humble life you have now?”
Lu Meng couldn't help but feel excited after hearing this. This is really a great thing! However, it also comes with huge risks.
She bit her lip and thought about it, and then said: "Little prince, your method is indeed feasible, but I am afraid that if someone in the palace finds out..."
Zhao Yu said: "Don't worry, as long as you follow my instructions, there will be no problem."
Lu Meng thought: "It is pitiful that this child has to worry about survival at such a young age. Now that he has just lost his mother, he has to plan for his future so rationally. It is really heartbreaking. I miss him so little. Despite his age, he is extremely smart and scheming. Now that he has entered the palace, he will definitely inherit the throne. If he does not take some risks, what else will he do?
How to enjoy the glory and wealth? She is in a brothel, her age is fading, and she will surely end up in the mud in the future, why not take a gamble? "
Thinking of this, Lu Meng nodded in agreement, and then Zhao Yu redeemed her body, and then started their plan to return to the palace.
A few days later, the guards sent by the palace came to take Zhao Yu back to the palace, and Lu Meng also followed him into the carriage with an uneasy mood.
She seemed very nervous in the carriage. Zhao Yu stretched out his little hand to hold her gently and whispered: "Don't be afraid, as long as you follow my instructions, there will be no problem."
"Um."
"Remember, you are no longer Lu Meng, but my mother Jing Wei."
"Yes, Your Highness."
After walking for an unknown amount of time, the carriage suddenly stopped. Zhao Yu asked warily, "Why did you stop?"
The guard replied: "Go back to the little prince, there is a group of people in front of you blocking the way."
Zhao Yu opened the car curtain and saw five masked men in black standing in front of them. They came with bad intentions.
The guard shouted loudly: "Who is coming? Do you know who is sitting in the carriage? How dare you stop him!"
The leader of the men in black shouted loudly: "Whoever is in charge, shoot and kill -"
I saw five men in black pulling out their swords one after another, and suddenly there was a flash of swords and shadows.
At this moment, Han Moxuan and Mo Xuelia happened to pass by and saw the fighting scene from a distance. Mo Xuelia said: "Husband, these bandits seem to be robbing a child, look!"
Han Moxuan said: "Madam, those men in black are very good at martial arts. They don't look like ordinary bandits."
After Han Moxuan finished speaking, he saw that the five men in black had killed most of the guards and were approaching the people in the carriage.
