As soon as Mu Lianlong walked out of the palace, someone stopped him from behind, "Your Majesty, please stay." Mu Lianlong turned around and saw that it was the old man. He didn't have a very good impression of him now. He expected to be able to do something for him.
He spoke for himself and actually helped Mu Yunjing, but he was angry because he was an old minister from three dynasties, so he had to respect him a little.
"Sir, why are you doing this?" Mu Lianlong smiled humbly, got off his horse, stood still, and asked with a smile. Seeing that he had stopped, Mu Lianlong slowed down his pursuit.
Many, when he arrived, he was already out of breath. It seemed that he had been chasing him. He didn't talk to him in the court just now, but now he was talking to him here. He might not know what it was about.
"Thank you, Your Majesty. I have something to discuss." The old man said breathlessly. After breathing hard for a few times, he slowly began to feel relieved.
"The boss didn't say it in the court just now, but now he comes specifically to find me. Can't this matter be brought to light?" Mu Lianlong asked suspiciously, and then laughed.
"Haha, I know that the prince may still hold a grudge against me in his heart, but I am only concerned about the matter and not the person. This matter of establishing a prince is indeed a national matter and cannot be taken carelessly. I cannot recommend it because the prince once saved my life.
It is not in line with the rules for the prince to be the prince. I hope the prince understands my difficulties. I am sorry." The old man came up and came straight to the point and said it straightforwardly. After saying that, he watched Mu Lianlong's expression change.
"Haha, what do you think of me, Mu Lianlong? I know that you are always upright and serve the country and the people wholeheartedly, so I won't take what happened just now to your heart. It's just that you strongly recommend Ninth Brother as the
Prince, I am afraid that the court will be dissatisfied with you. You also understand that the ninth brother has lived in the remote mountains and forests since he was a child, learning medical skills from the miracle doctor, and taking saving lives and healing the wounded as his own responsibility. It is difficult to understand that he will inherit the throne in the future.
Now, I have to treat the ministers in the main hall. I said benevolence and love. I'm afraid you are confused. As a monarch of a country, benevolence is not limited to love and kindness. What you want is to be able to
The people of the whole country can live a good life. If a monarch only pays attention to a few individuals and indeed ignores the lives of most people, then his benevolence and goodwill may not be able to save all living beings. I hope you will think clearly." Mu Lianlong
After a long talk in front of the old man, he explained his position. Seeing that the old man was listening attentively and with a serious look on his face, he had achieved his goal, so he put aside the topic and asked, "Is that so?
, Mr. Boss?”
"Yes, the prince's words are really refreshing to me. I will keep these words in mind and think about it carefully when I go back. My prince, you have unparalleled achievements and are able to surrender to all people. You should be the leader of the people! After I go back
You must think about it carefully and make a good plan." The old man suddenly spoke much more pleasantly, and turned the gun as he spoke, which made Mu Lianlong feel a little uncomfortable. He always felt that what the old fox said must be true.
There is something in it.
"My lord, are you looking for me just to say these things? If these are the words, forget it. We have finished what we need to say. Sir, please come back." After Mu Lianlong said this, he was about to leave.
thing.
"Your Majesty, wait a minute. I have something to tell you. Your Majesty must be very interested in it."
"What's the matter? Sir, please tell me." Mu Lianlong suddenly felt a little unhappy.
"It's like this. When I was imprisoned in Meng State, I once heard a legend, a legend about Gu magic in the Western Regions. Naturally, I didn't believe in this kind of thing before, so I just listened to it as a story.
Well, after hearing what the prince said about the Mandala Kingdom today in the main hall, I suddenly felt that this story might be true, so I hope the prince can listen to it. Maybe the fate of our country, Mu, will change because of this story.
, the voodoo arts in the Western Region will also be subdued." The old man looked very profound and stroked his white beard.
"Oh? Please tell me what kind of story it is." Mu Lianlong asked curiously.
The old man looked around and lowered his voice and said, "This is not the place to talk. We'd better find a secluded place to talk. What do you think?"
Mu Lianlong looked around, nodded, got on his horse, and the boss was also carried in a sedan to a tavern. After getting off the sedan, the two of them invited each other in, and the waiter served a few delicious dishes.
Ner Hong was served a few side dishes and then sent out. Mu Lianlong asked the guards to guard outside and not allow anyone to come near.
"Can you please speak now, sir?" Mu Lianlong leaned forward and asked.
"Haha, of course, it is better for the prince to be cautious. This place is very elegant, and there is good wine to accompany it. It is really a beautiful thing in the world!" After saying that, he poured a glass of wine for himself and Mu Lianlong, and drank it after signaling.
After going down, Mu Lianlong couldn't help but drink after seeing it. He drank it all in one gulp and put down the glass.
"Your Majesty is so generous, so I don't care about it. I heard this story from some jailers, and I don't know where they heard it from. Anyway, it was passed on from ten to ten, and it reached me.
"My lord, please listen. If you think it makes sense, go ahead. If you think it's nonsense, just pretend I didn't say it." The old man kept talking, but refused to get into the topic, which made Mu Lianlong on the side hate it.
Teeth itchy.
"I will make a decision on my own, sir. You don't have to worry about it, sir." Mu Lianlong just frowned slightly, poured himself a glass of wine, and said softly.
"Well, the story goes like this. I heard that there is a cave on the top of the snow-capped mountains in the Western Regions. This cave is frozen by ice and snow. It is said that there is an ancient sacred beast sealed inside, called the Destiny Black Bird. This thing is
It is a homologous branch of the ancient mythical beast Suzaku. It has never been discovered by people. Therefore, in all the classics, there is only the theory of Suzaku, but there is no destiny black bird. Because of this, this shocking secret has been hidden, but in the Western Regions
Some mysterious countries have indeed recorded it. It is said that this bird has been frozen on the top of the mountain for a long time. It is good at catching voodoo insects. If this bird can be captured by you, the prince, it will be easy to deal with the voodoo arts in the Western Regions in the future. It can be captured easily.
." As the old man spoke, he poured himself another bowl of wine, his face flushed, and he murmured something about how this bird was born.
"Then let me ask you, since this bird is an ancient holy beast, it must not be captured by ordinary people. Why did the boss appoint me to capture this bird?" Mu Lianlong was confused. Could it be that the boss regarded himself as a martial artist?
, a reckless person?
"Haha, the reason why I said I chose you is because you are the only one in the world who has this ability, and after this, you will definitely be able to capture this bird. It's just that the journey will be a little harder." The old man said mysteriously.
.
"I am different from other people? What does this mean?" Mu Lianlong was even more confused. He had more titles than ordinary people. Besides, Emperor Mu
It’s not just him who has the child on his knees. No matter what happens, Mu Yunjing can still go. Why does he have to be the one?
"Haha, I know that Your Majesty is curious about this, so I won't let you down, and tell you directly. First, Your Majesty, you have been on the battlefield for a long time. What makes you stand out is that you are not afraid of danger. Many people are afraid of danger when they see it.
It's confusing, but my lord, you are a natural-born general, and you are not comparable to ordinary people. Secondly, I have seen the woman who saved you that day. She looks weak, but in her heart, she is just like you, my lord, she is also a person who has seen big things.
She may be the only woman in the world who can rival you in this scene." After the old man said this, he stopped talking. He picked up a chopstick and ate the food slowly, poured the wine and started drinking.
He looked very leisurely, deliberately making Mu Lianlong anxious.
"Sir, the first point is quite reliable, but the second point is that you are too arbitrary. You can make such a decision just by looking at it. If it is not what you think, wouldn't it be wrong?
I'm in danger." Mu Lianlong suddenly became a little angry. He really couldn't figure out what this old man was thinking. Is he saving the country or harming himself? Even if he is harming himself, there is no need to put him to death.
If it were true that he wanted to hook up with the woman he liked, then he was being too cruel.
"Haha, I understand what the prince is thinking. In fact, the first two points are just a foundation. The most important thing is that you like her and she likes you. This is the most important factor. Otherwise, even if you are destined to set foot on the top of the snow mountain,
You may not be able to see the destiny black bird." The boss finally said the most important factor.
"It's true that I like her. How can you tell that she likes me? Besides, what does our love for each other have to do with the destiny black bird? There seems to be no connection between them. Sir,
Are you drunk and starting to talk nonsense?" Mu Lianlong quickly went to test whether the boss was drunk, but was blocked by him.
"Can I get drunk? I'm kidding. If I got drunk so easily and managed to reach the position of a senator of the Three Dynasties, I would have been dragged out and beheaded a long time ago." The old man said suddenly soberly.
"Can you please tell me what's going on? It's hard to understand why there's so much going on." The suspense in Mu Lianlong's heart became even more intense. The old man smiled happily, as if he was smiling.
It's like playing with him.
"Okay, let me continue to analyze it for you. First of all, I have heard this from others. I can't guarantee whether it is true or not. Legend has it that as long as two men and women who love each other appear on the top of the snow-capped mountains together, then
Interlock your fingers, telepathically, and the destiny black bird will appear. At that time, the destiny black bird will test your love. If it meets certain requirements, it will satisfy your request. At that time, you can make any request to it.
I will agree to it, so you only have one chance, and it depends on how much love you have in your hearts." After that, the old man started to drink by himself, leaving Mu Lianlong who was meditating aside in a daze.
