Song Mu had somewhat different feelings about Tao Fengming's sudden decision.
Ever since I knew Tao Fengming's true identity, I actually had some other thoughts in my mind.
Tao Fengming, as a legendary figure who once dominated the literary dynasty, was finally framed by the demon Man Na, which is enough to prove the degree of threat Tao Fengming posed in the minds of these guys.
Although he remains anonymous, there are still dangers around him from time to time, and there are many threats to Song Mu and now Tao Fengming.
Now Song Mu is even more worried about Tao Fengming's safety. What happened the past few days is a lesson for the future.
In the future, the identity of the two people may not be hidden from the eyes of interested people, which is equivalent to putting Tao Fengming under an explicit threat.
Song Mu didn't notice either. In fact, unknowingly, what he cared more about was not his own safety, but Tao Fengming's.
At this moment, Song Mu was alone in his mind trying to figure out the various situations that he might encounter in the future. The two of them left the blacksmith shop together. When they were driving the carriage on the road again, Song Mu noticed that something seemed wrong with Tao Fengming next to him.
After coming out of the blacksmith shop, he seemed to be in a depressed mood, and now he looked even more worried.
Song Mu pursed his lips when he saw this, wondering if Tao Fengming also felt that Tian Bailian's approach might be inappropriate, but Tao Fengming suddenly spoke to Song Mu.
"Jing Zhao, if you get into trouble because of me in the future, what will you do?"
Song Mu was stunned when he heard this and said immediately without thinking.
"Of course it is to solve this trouble. If the situation is like what happened a few days ago, then I will teach them a profound lesson."
Tao Fengming's expression seemed to soften slightly after hearing these words, but he spoke again.
"Then what if...a hundred years later, someone else uses my affairs to frame you..."
When Song Mu heard this, he frowned hard and looked puzzled. He turned his head and asked.
"Master, why did you suddenly think of this?"
Tao Fengming was stunned for a moment and said nothing.
"Master, you told me to relax my mind back then, but this time, how could it be that you yourself..."
Song Mu looked slightly sideways at this moment, and after a moment he said in a deep voice.
"Master, I don't care what others say. You are my master and have taught me so many things. They cannot judge your value in my heart with just one or two words."
"If... there comes a time when someone dares to talk about Master's past, I, Song Mu, will definitely fight with him."
Song Mu said categorically. After hearing this, Tao Fengming seemed to have finally calmed down. His face relaxed, and he looked up at Song Mu with a smile, lowered his eyes and nodded slightly.
The two of them fell into silence for a while, but Song Mu felt a sense of sadness in his heart.
His master, who was once a decisive and decisive person, now has to consider so many things for his future. He is already old and his hair has turned gray, which makes Song Mu feel even more uncomfortable and depressed.
The carriage stopped at an inn in the city. Tao Feng promised to visit an old friend tomorrow, and Song Mu naturally agreed.
After one night, early the next morning, Song Mu prepared his things and set off on foot with Tao Fengming.
"Master, are the Sun Qing and Master Sun you mentioned really the descendants of Sun Quan?"
Yesterday, Tao Fengming explained today's arrangements to Song Mu. What he wanted to visit was an old friend he met in the court, a Jinshi who once served as an official in the Hanlin Academy. Later, when the new emperor ascended the throne, he was returned to his hometown.
, became Jinling’s regimental training envoy.
Tao Fengming chatted with Song Mu on the road. Only then did Song Mu know that Mr. Sun had such a background.
Tao Fengming nodded immediately, seeming to remember a period of time in the past, and said calmly at this moment.
"Well, Mr. Sun is very knowledgeable and knowledgeable. He comes from a famous family, is familiar with military books, and has outstanding strategic insights. He showed his talents when he was in the Hanlin Academy, but later he was unable to go to the frontier army, so he returned
This is Jinling.”
Song Mu was speechless when he heard this, but he immediately noticed something, that is, Tao Fengming's connections always seemed to have a somewhat legendary quality.
And not surprisingly, these characters seem to have now left the imperial court's core circle.
This had to make Song Muduo somewhat daydream.
At this moment, Song and Mu had arrived in front of the Sun's house, but they saw that the door was closed, but there were two extremely strong servants guarding the door. Seeing Song and Mu approaching, one of them stepped forward and said.
"You two stop here. I wonder if you have a greeting card when you come to Sun's house?"
Song Mu immediately stepped forward, took out the greeting note he had already written, and said respectfully.
"I am Song Mu from Jiangnan West Road. This time I came to visit Lord Sun with my master on the holiday. I have a lot of troubles."
Having said this, Song Mu did not forget to add another sentence.
"My teacher and your Excellency are also old friends, and I would like to talk about them today."
Unlike other mansions where there are concierges to take care of them, this servant seemed to take Song Mu's invitation as a matter of course. He looked at Song Mu's seal of approval and looked a little more respectful at the moment.
"Please wait a moment, both of you."
With that said, the servant headed into the house. Not long after, a figure hurriedly came out, crossed the threshold and looked around for a moment, and then walked over quickly.
"Lan Xian, it's you!"
The person who came was a tall and strong man, with a rather rough appearance. At this moment, the man with a golden sword walked in front of Song and Mu. He saw Tao Fengming at a glance and immediately stepped forward to offer his hand.
"Brother Feng Che, long time no see."
Tao Fengming said with a smile. Sun Qinghe looked at Tao Fengming at this moment, with a bit of excitement and emotion on his face.
"How many years have passed, I have always thought that Brother Lanxian, you..."
After saying this, the other party took a deep breath, straightened his body, turned sideways and said to Tao Fengming.
"Brother Lan Xian, please come inside!"
Tao Fengming stepped forward with a smile. Song Mu originally wanted to say hello, but Mr. Sun seemed to have completely ignored him. At this moment, he just followed Tao Fengming and kept asking how Tao Fengming was doing these years.
Song Mu followed behind him and entered Sun's house. When he entered the hall, Song Mu suddenly found that there was another person sitting here.
It was a middle-aged man, wearing a dark blue robe. He was sitting on a chair drinking tea. When he saw Sun Qinghe and others coming in, he put down his tea cup and stood up.
Lord Sun immediately spoke up and explained to him.
"Brother Fengyun, this is an old friend of mine, but I don't know if you recognize him or not."
Lord Sun introduced Tao Fengming to the other party at this moment, and then immediately said to Tao Fengming.
"This is Gu Shifan, the current envoy of Jinling Water Transport, whose courtesy name is Fengyun. He also came to my house to chat for a few words today."
After such an introduction, both Tao Fengming and the other party bowed their hands. Song Mu was also stunned when he heard the name.
This gentleman was actually named Gu Shifan. If I remembered correctly, the name on the box of books that I got from the prefect Gu of Shaozhou seemed to be Gu Shifan.
Song Mu's face froze immediately, and when he felt that this was not such a coincidence, Gu Shifan also raised his hand and spoke.
"If I guess correctly, Lord Sun's friend should be Lord Huangfu who defeated all the monsters in the East China Sea, right?"
Gu Shifan actually said it directly. Tao Fengming couldn't help but look at him, but he explained calmly.
"Sir, there is no need to be surprised. When I took the provincial examination in the past, I was lucky enough to meet you."
Tao Fengming suddenly realized that he also handed over his hand, but Gu Shifan suddenly looked at Song Mu.
