Before leaving, Muchuan couldn't help but ask when he saw that Liu Rumeng didn't pay any attention to the stall.
Hearing this, Liu Rumeng smiled and said, "Don't worry, Mr. Mu, someone will bring him to the house. Then Mr. Mu will be able to drink freely."
Muchuan nodded and said: "Miss Liu, you should call me Muchuan, I am not an adult."
"In that case, I will call you Mr. Mu."
"So good."
Being called "sir" all the time made Muchuan feel a little uncomfortable.
Later, under the leadership of Liu Rumeng, Muchuan came to a mansion.
This mansion is quite grand in this town, and is even more grand than the residences arranged by local officials for the envoys.
It can be seen that the Liu family seems to be quite wealthy in this city.
This is true. How could ordinary people have the resources to learn and understand Chinese culture?
"Miss, you are back."
Seeing that Liu Rumeng was back, the doorman also saluted quickly.
However, after seeing Muchuan behind Liu Rumeng, the servant was a little confused.
He has been guarding the Liu family's house all year round, and his eyesight is not bad at all, and he can spot Muchuan's extraordinary character at a glance.
Apart from anything else, Muchuan's extremely exquisite clothes alone make him definitely not an ordinary person.
Facing such a person of extraordinary origin, the servants paid no attention to trivial matters and directly bowed to him.
"The little man pays homage to this great man."
Muchuan was also a little surprised to be kneeled down and worshiped inexplicably.
I couldn't help but glance at Liu Rumeng. Liu Rumeng didn't have any special reaction, as if he thought everything was natural.
Muchuan suddenly realized that Baekje, Silla and Goguryeo came from the same clan, and the status gap was even more obvious than that of the Tang Dynasty.
In a sense, it is more like a slave society.
This may also be a sign of backwardness.
After entering the mansion, Muchuan was taken to the living room to sit down.
"Mr. Mu, you must try these. These are snacks from all over Baekje."
Liu Rumeng pointed to the various snacks served and said with a slight shame: "Of course, compared with the infinite delicacies of the Tang Dynasty, this is probably not as good as Mr. Mu's eyes."
Hearing this, Muchuan smiled and shook his head, "Anyway, the delicacies of each place have their own wonders. I would also like to try Baekje's specialties."
With that said, Muchuan just took a few bites.
At the envoy dinner just now, although the local officials also prepared quite sumptuous delicacies, the variety was less than what Liu Rumeng prepared now.
This is enough to show that the Liu family has considerable power in this city.
"Master Mu, let's try some of Baekje's wine again."
"Excellent, excellent."
After eating and drinking for a while, Liu Rumeng began to slowly reveal the theme.
"Mr. Mu, why did you come to Baekje this time?"
Hearing this, Muchuan's hand that was about to take the cake paused.
Muchuan was thinking whether he should tell the truth or a lie.
It didn't take long for Muchuan to make a decision.
Muchuan smiled and said: "To be fair to Miss Liu, I actually came to Baekje with the envoys to pay homage to the King of Baekje."
As soon as he said this, Liu Rumeng was full of surprise.
"Emissary group? Mr. Mu is talking about the envoy group of the Tang Dynasty?"
Muchuan nodded, "Of course, the Holy One takes this mission to Baekje very seriously."
Observing Liu Rumeng's expression carefully, Muchuan saw no trace of disguise.
This only made Muchuan even more confused.
The arrival of the envoys here is not a trivial matter. Does Liu Rumeng really not know about it?
Liu Rumeng still looked shocked. She murmured: "Young Master Mu is actually of such a noble status. This little lady was just rude."
As he said that, Liu Rumeng wanted to kneel down and salute.
Seeing this, Muchuan quickly stopped her.
Muchuan said helplessly: "Miss Liu, I am just a pawn in the envoy group. There are nearly a thousand people like me in the entire envoy group. I am not noble at all. Miss Liu, please don't hurt me."
"Mr. Mu, you have been ordered by the emperor, so your status is quite noble."
In short, Muchuan could be regarded as stopping Liu Rumeng from kneeling down and worshiping.
Ever since she learned Muchuan's identity, Liu Rumeng felt a little tied up in everything she said and did.
This also made Muchuan speechless. He must have told the truth, otherwise the girl would have fainted on the spot.
"Mr. Mu, how about I go and entertain your companions and have them come over as guests?"
Liu Rumeng said, but shook her head again and again, "No, no, the house is too small. If you adults come over, it will seem a bit crowded."
"Well, I will go find my father now. When we are ready, we will give a warm banquet to all the adults of the envoy tomorrow."
"Miss Liu, there's no need to bother."
Muchuan stopped Liu Rumeng and said: "We have to get up early tomorrow morning and go to the royal city, but we really don't have time to delay here."
Liu Rumeng was stunned for a moment and nodded blankly.
"Yes, yes, the little girl is being abrupt."
Muchuan smiled, clasped his fists, and said, "Miss Liu, thank you for your hospitality. It's getting late, so I'll leave."
Seeing Muchuan getting up to leave, Liu Rumeng finally reacted.
"Mr. Mu, please stay here tonight." Liu Rumeng looked anxious, "My little lady still has many questions to ask you for advice."
Hearing this, Muchuan smiled and said: "Next time, when we complete our mission, we will have to pass through here."
After saying that, Muchuan stopped staying and walked directly towards the door.
Seeing this, Liu Rumeng quickly chased after him.
"Mr. Mu, will you really come again?" Liu Rumeng was quite nervous.
If she misses this time, she may never have the chance to meet people from the Tang Dynasty again.
Not to mention such a distinguished messenger as Muchuan.
Of course, this is just Liu Rumeng's own idea.
According to Muchuan's plan, Baekje and Silla would end up like Goguryeo soon.
By that time, I'm afraid Miss Liu's mood will be quite complicated.
Muchuan nodded and said with a faint smile: "Of course I will come. Miss Liu has to take good care of my pile of wine."
When he was about to leave the house, he bumped into a plump middle-aged man.
The moment the middle-aged man saw Muchuan, he fell to his knees as if he were seeing a living god.
"Daddy?"
Liu Rumeng couldn't help but be surprised.
"Why are you still standing there? Kneel down quickly! This is the leader of the Tang Dynasty envoys!"
Seeing Liu Rumeng stunned on the spot, the owner of the Liu family quickly shouted in a low voice as he was not scared to death.
Just kidding, he has been busy for a while today, concentrating all his resources to receive the envoys.
Regarding the situation of the envoys, he was countless times clearer than Liu Rumeng, who had never left the gate.
Especially Muchuan's appearance, he would never dare to forget it in his life.
The number one scholar of the Tang Dynasty, the famous man beside the emperor.
