The mosquito demon has been subdued, and the crisis in Kanglong Village has been resolved. There is no need to wait until dawn.
Yu Xuanji forcibly used Zhenqi. Although it seemed fine on the surface, the internal injuries were actually aggravated. It used to take a month of rest to recover, but now it is estimated that it will be difficult to recover in two months.
After being separated from Yu Xuanji and Li Yi'an, Jiang Mu returned to Prince Ding's Mansion at the fourth watch. Although the guards were given leave, the palace must not be left unattended at night. As soon as he climbed over the wall and entered, he was "caught" Got it right.
"Little slave Yu Ren, I have met His Highness."
After seeing Jiang Mu's face clearly, the young servant on night watch was stunned for a moment, and then immediately bowed down.
Jiang Mu felt a little embarrassed. He had decided to be the king in a dignified way, but he still had to be secretive when he returned home...
He was busy telling the other party not to be too polite, and gave him a few words of encouragement.
"Thank you for the compliment, Your Highness, this is what a slave should do."
Yu Ren's face was filled with joy. When he saw no one around, he whispered: "Your Highness, don't worry, I know what to do. I'm patrolling tonight and I haven't seen Your Highness..."
Jiang Mu glanced at this young servant and thought he was a bit shrewd. He reached out and patted his shoulder to show encouragement.
"Your Highness, walk slowly."
Yu Rengong sent Jiang Mu away, and then looked to another place, where Chang Fu was nodding to him, with a look of satisfaction on his face...
After returning to the study, Jiang Mu couldn't wait to take out the pure spiritual power.
Suddenly, the desire to swallow it into his mouth arose again. Yu Xuanji reminded him that he would not try it easily. He hurriedly recited the Qingxin Mantra silently. After a while, this thought subsided.
"If you can't swallow it, how should you use it..."
Looking at the little green bead in his hand, Jiang Mu felt a little confused. The self-cultivation technique only said that pure spiritual energy was needed to light up the meridians, but it did not explain how to absorb it. He sat on the bed and thought for a long time, even imitating the TV series he had watched before. I brought the little green bead to my mouth and sucked it in, but there was no reaction...
However, just when he was distressed, the candle in the room burned to the end. After it was extinguished, the room became dim, but he saw the desk over there shining brightly.
Jiang Mu was attracted and quickly got up to check. It turned out that among the pile of books on the desk, the piece of paper recording the self-cultivation technique was "troublesome".
Jiang Mu opened it and saw the little golden man appearing in the painting again.
The little golden man was sitting cross-legged on the high mountain, holding the Linzi Jue in his hands. He seemed to feel Jiang Mu approaching, and suddenly pushed out his hands and printed the Linzi Jue on Jiang Mu's forehead.
Suddenly, Jiang Mu felt his head heat up, and then he inexplicably entered a state of trance...
At the Dantian position, the nebula is getting bigger, and the meridians are lighting up one by one. A dragon-shaped shadow appears in the east, which is the sacred beast Qinglong. Then, the white tiger, Suzaku, Xuanwu and other three beasts' shadows also appear in the other three directions. The four beasts roared in unison, causing Jiang Mu to have a splitting headache. However, there was another force in it that instantly resolved the headache. After a moment, the four beasts disappeared, turning into four large and dazzling stars, and the nebula also No longer getting bigger, Jiang Mu's mind was clear, he held the Linzi Jue in his hand, and understood its profound meaning...
——
I don't know how long it took, but it was already bright. Jiang Mu opened his eyes and saw a beautiful woman's face, only two fingers away from him. Her eyes were full of curiosity and she was staring at him...
This woman is not Zhu Lian.
"Your Majesty... Your Majesty, you are finally awake. I have something to ask you..."
Jiang Mu's heart jumped. Zhang Zhenyun had entered Prince Ding's palace. There was nothing wrong with calling herself a slave. He pretended not to see the panic in her eyes and the blush on her face, and asked calmly: "Oh, it's Zhenyun, what do you want from me?" ?”
Seeing that Jiang Mu didn't pay attention, Zhang Zhenyun breathed a sigh of relief and quickly said...
It turned out that Zhu Lian wanted to work as a female worker to fill the palace's treasury, but he could not sell it directly in the name of the palace, so he thought of asking Xiao Shu to buy a shop in Xicheng, and wanted to use Xiao Shu's name to do this specifically. Unexpectedly, the store ran into trouble just after buying it. A group of people came from nowhere. They rushed into the store and smashed it randomly, destroying all the finished products made by Zhu Lian and the others. Xiao Shu reported this matter. She reported it to the Xicheng government office, but the government office said that there were no witnesses and would not file the case. They also said that she was dressed as a maid, where did the money come from, and that she must have committed theft, so they locked up Xiao Shu. Zhu Lian has now been arrested. Went to Xicheng government office...
"How long has the princess been here?" Jiang Mu got out of bed, his eyes full of anger.
"Back to Your Highness, the princess has been gone for two hours." Zhang Zhenyun said.
"Then why didn't you inform me early?"
"The princess said that Your Highness has worked hard and will report to you after His Highness wakes up..."
Jiang Mu put on his shoes and hurried out of the house, while Zhang Zhenyun trotted behind him.
Zhu Lian did not go alone, but took Changfu and Yuren with him.
Xicheng District, Jiang Mu remembered correctly, seemed to be Gao Qiu's territory. When he said it was territory, it meant that everyone from the government office to the ordinary police officers were his accomplices.
Worried about Zhu Lian in his heart, Jiang Mu walked quickly and arrived at the Xicheng government office not long after, but Zhang Zhenyun behind him was exhausted...
At this time, many people had gathered at the entrance of the government office. Jiang Mu wanted to squeeze in directly, but after hesitating for a moment, he stopped. Seeing a plump woman with heavy makeup in the crowd talking quietly to the person next to her, he hurriedly stepped forward and asked: "Madam, I wonder why there are so many people gathered here?"
The woman's eyes lit up when she saw an extremely handsome young man. She immediately gave up talking to others and said with a smile: "Where did this handsome young man come from? It's so impolite to call him aunt when he comes up. Mr. Caiyun of the slave family." Lou Meiniang, don’t you know my husband’s name?”
Caiyun Tower, isn't it the same as Chunyin Pavilion, a place for people with kidney deficiency.
He immediately took a step back and said, "It's not worth mentioning the young man's name. For fear of offending my sister's ears, let's talk about what happened here."
Seeing that Jiang Mu refused to say anything, Mei Niang did not stalk her and said, "Young Master doesn't know something. It is said that a maid from Prince Ding's palace stole Princess Ding's money and came here to buy a shop. I wanted to give my country sisters a place to stay here, but I met a gangster who not only disrupted the shop, but also exposed the theft. No, the princess must have been furious and brought the girl here to convict her."
Jiang Mu was a little confused and didn't react for a while. Mei Niang thought he was curious when she saw this, so she continued: "But this is just a rumor from the government. There is also a rumor that Princess Ding wants to open a female celebrity. Shop, Dong sent his servants to open a shop here. Unexpectedly, the king had just deposed Gao Yameni a few days ago. Gao Taiwei went to find the official to make the decision, but the official ignored him. Gao Taiwei was angry, so he joined the government government. To take revenge on Prince Ding’s Mansion, I wonder which one Mr. Xiao Lang believes in more?”
As he spoke, his eyebrows couldn't stop twitching, and Zhang Zhenyun could be seen stamping her feet. She stepped forward and hugged Jiang Mu's arm, saying: "Your Highness, you'd better go in quickly. It's too late for the princess to suffer. .”
Jiang Mu nodded.
"Your Highness, Your Highness?"
Mei Niang was stunned, and when she came to her senses, the two of them were gone.
The two government officials guarding the door saw someone coming forward, so they wanted to scold them. But before they could say anything, they saw one person take out a token.
"Prince Ding...it's Prince Ding...I recognize him. A few days ago, he deposed Gaokan in public..."
"Now that Prince Ding is here, I will tell you that the government officials' words cannot be trusted and that they must be colluding with Captain Gao to cause trouble. Now, Prince Ding is here in person!"
"...."
Some people recognized the sign and naturally recognized Jiang Mu, but unexpectedly, Jiang Mu thought that after knowing that she was Queen Ding, the two government officials would get out of the way, but they didn't expect that the two just looked at each other. , still blocking the door, one of them also said: "Your Highness, Prince Ding, our government office is handling a case. Outsiders are not allowed to enter and disturb order."
"Presumptuous! You two dare to stop me?" Jiang Mu shouted angrily. The hot day made people feel a little cold.
This matter is almost certain to be caused by Gao Qiu's servant. Otherwise, how dare two government officials dare to stop him?
He actually targeted Zhu Lian, he was already murderous!
The crowd of onlookers fell silent for a moment. They only knew that the prince, Prince Yun, was extremely intelligent and was the number one scholar at a young age. It was also rumored that he was a descendant of Wenquxing. However, for the other eldest son of the crown prince, King Ding, he was mostly incapable of learning and weak in character. cognition.
But now, looking at the young man's straight back, and recalling the fact that Gao Yanei was deposed in anger at his righteous act a few days ago, many people feel that the rumors are not credible...
"When King Ding arrives, Zhu Meng of this county will be waiting for him from afar!"
However, at this moment, a voice came from the government office, and then a middle-aged man in green official uniform was seen striding towards him, followed by a group of officials.
Zhu Meng, the current magistrate of Xicheng District, belongs to Cai Jing's party like Gao Qiu. He was one of the six traitors of the Northern Song Dynasty in the original world. Of course, he is also a traitor in this world.
In the early years of Zhenghe, Huizong once told Huizong that he was looking for strange flowers and stones. He spent official money in Suzhou to collect flowers and stones, and sent them to Tokyo on ships. They were known as the "Flowers and Stones Gang". Because they were supplied every year, the local people were troubled. Fang La He took advantage of this move to launch an uprising.
Jiang Mu didn't see Zhu Lian's figure and couldn't help but narrowed his eyes: "Where is Princess Ding?"
He swore that if Zhu Lian suffered anything, even if he let the prince do nothing, he would not let anyone here!
"Your Highness, don't be angry. I know that His Highness Prince Ding is coming forward. Although he is deciding the case, we dare not neglect it and come to greet him immediately..." Zhu Meng bowed respectfully.
As soon as these words came out, Jiang Mu felt like he was barging into the government office and disrupting the handling of the case. If he continued to show off his face, he would be suspected of relying on his status as a prince and disrespecting others.
However, Jiang Mu would not just accept it but not return it, thinking that he was the same waste as before!
He couldn't help but said coldly: "Oh, I decide the affairs of the prince's own family. Even if the servants are at fault, it should be decided by me. There is also my father above me. How can you, a mere Xicheng government official, also want to take care of my family affairs? Or is it that your power, Zhu Meng, is already great enough to surpass that of my father?"
It's a slap on the hat, right? No one can do it the same way. If you like it, I'll give you a big buckle!
After the words fell, Zhu Meng's expression changed instantly. His power was greater than that of the emperor. Even if the accusation was not carried out today and it was spread, he would be affected...
