The famous book tour starting from the Red House

Chapter 470 Sue Gao Qiu
If there is anything about Da Song that makes Mu Xu satisfied, the first thing is that there is no ritual of kneeling.Except on important occasions such as the emperor's ascension to the throne, ministers generally only need to bow and salute when meeting the emperor, instead of kneeling back and forth like Manqing.

Therefore, after seeing Zhao Ji, the emperor of the Song Dynasty, Mu Xu bowed with Cai You, and said, "people in the mountains and fields have seen the official family, and may the official family enjoy the immortal blessing forever, and live as long as the sky !"

As I said before, Zhao Ji is a person who cares about his appearance very much. Now when he sees Mu Xusheng's handsome appearance, he is satisfied with himself firstly, and when he hears his words, he is also so pleasant, and he feels even more inexplicably happy , For a moment, Mu Xu's true identity was forgotten.

He smiled and waved his hands, and said in an easy-going tone, "You two lovers don't need to be polite, please hurry up!"

"Thank you, officer."

When Mu Xu and Xu stood up straight, Zhao Ji sighed, "I heard from Ju An the other day that Mu Qing's family looks like a grandson of a prince. I still don't believe it. After seeing it today, I realize that what I said is true."

Mu Xu really didn't expect that the moment he met Zhao Ji, he didn't ask about He Dong's affairs, and didn't care about how to conquer Liao. Instead, he began to comment on his own appearance, so he had to follow these words and humbly say,
"Officials are the real face of heaven and man, and subordinates are just the appearance of middle man!"

"Haha, Mr. Liang and Cai Aiqing, you two heard it, this Mu Aiqing can talk more than many ministers in the court."

Hearing Mu Xu's words, Zhao Ji looked very happy, pointed at Mu Xu and said to Cai You and the others.

Liang Shicheng glanced at Mu Xu thoughtfully, and said, "Lord Mu is indeed good at speaking, but what he said just now is indeed true, and when it comes to magnanimity, who in this world can compare with officials! "

Cai You echoed, "Of course, the official family was originally born from a god, how can mortals compare to it!"

After being flattered by the three of them, Zhao Ji felt extremely comfortable in every pore of his body, and immediately saw him beckoning to Mu Xu, and said affectionately,
"Let's not talk about business today, Mu Qing's family will accompany me to walk around the garden."

As he spoke, he took the lead and walked towards the distant flower garden.

Seeing this situation, Mu Xu gave Cai You a helpless expression, quickly stepped forward, and followed Zhao Ji one step behind.

Liang Shicheng, who deliberately stayed behind, whispered to Cai You, "Fortunately, this guy is a grassroots leader. If he is allowed to be an official in the court, it will not take long, and there will be no place for us to stand!"

Cai You was not worried about this at all, but gloated and said, "It doesn't matter, he is going back to the Yunzhou frontier after all, but Li Gang and others have been jumping up and down recently, trying to prevent the officials from accepting Mu Xu's plan, I am afraid they will fail! "

"You and Privy Tong had better be careful, don't let Mu Xu play tricks again."

"Thank you Yinxiang for reminding me, I know what to do. I have already discussed with Privy Secretary Tong. When Mu Xu leaves this time, I will send someone to go with him. No matter what happens, I have to get Hedong back first."

Not to mention how the two are in the back, let's talk about Zhao Ji and Mu Xu's side, surrounded by Gong'e guards, they walked and stopped all the way, enjoying some beautiful scenery of Genyue Mountain, seeing Mu Xu's good conversation, Zhao Ji couldn't help but wonder ,

"The Qing family is so knowledgeable, why don't they come to the court to be an official, but will be reduced to the rivers and lakes instead?"

After only being in contact with kung fu for a short while, Mu Xu had a certain understanding of the temperament of the emperor of Song Dynasty, so after hearing this question, he didn't feel offended at all, and after a little calculation, he thought of how to deal with it statement.

"If you go back to the official's house, let's be serious, the subordinates are not from the Song Dynasty, but grew up in Shangjing of the Liao Kingdom."

"Ah, could it be that the Qing family is from Khitan?"

"The officials misunderstood that the minister was born in Zhengmiaohong Han, but he grew up in the northern country. My family's great-grandfather once served in the Later Jin Dynasty. In the past, Yelu Deguang captured Bianliang and took the Emperor of the Later Jin Dynasty and a group of civil and military soldiers into captivity. To the north, my great-grandfather was one of them.

Although the family ancestor lived in a foreign country, he left behind the ancestral instruction, and the descendants were not allowed to serve in the Liao Kingdom.Therefore, my family has been farming in the countryside of Shangjing for several generations.Until the generation of Chen, only Chen was left alone in my family, so he sold his ancestral property and went south to the motherland. "

After hearing Mu Xu's explanation, Zhao Ji first praised the Mu family's family style, and then asked, "Ai Qing hasn't said anything yet, why did she reveal it, I will listen with all my ears."

Mu Xu made a look of reluctance, and after Zhao Ji repeatedly urged him, he gritted his teeth and said,
"Since the officials asked, I told you bluntly. In the past, I came to Tokyo City to find connections and wanted to serve the imperial court. During this period, I met Lin Chong, the spear and stick instructor of the [-] forbidden army.

But who would have thought that one day, the lady of the Lin family went to Daxiangguo Temple to enter the village, and happened to be spotted by Gao Taiwei's adopted son, who, relying on Gao Taiwei's power, wanted to do something wrong to Lin's lady.The minister was agitated by righteous indignation for a moment, so he drove the guy away. "

Having said that, Mu Xu deliberately stopped for a moment, and seeing Zhao Ji's eyes fixed on listening, he continued to speak in a fierce tone,
"Originally, this is the end of the matter, the worst thing I can do is to leave Tokyo, but I didn't want Gao Taiwei to love his son so eagerly, he didn't ask the reason, first framed Lin Chong for trespassing on the White Tiger Festival Hall, and wanted to put him to death.

Then his son Gao Yanei was even more relentless, and ordered his subordinate Yuhou to force Miss Lin to remarry, and almost committed suicide by throwing the murdered one into a trap. Throw yourself into the wilderness. "

Hearing Mu Xu's ins and outs, Zhao Ji was furious, turned around and asked Cai You behind him,
"Cai Aiqing, what Mu Qing's family said is true. Gao Qiu's adopted son is really so lawless in the capital?"

Cai You hesitated for a moment, originally he didn't want to offend Gao Qiu, but with Mu Xu by his side at this moment, if he chooses to deceive the emperor, nine out of ten he will reveal his secrets.Therefore, he adhered to the idea that a dead fellow Taoist would not die a poor Taoist, and in the end he answered the truth truthfully,
"Reporting to the officials, Gao Taiwei's adopted son was indeed a bit unscrupulous in Beijing in the past."

It was rare for Mu Xu to seize this opportunity, so naturally he wanted to disgust Gao Qiu, and only listened to his words,

"Why should Cai Shaobao cover up for Taiwei Gao, Gao Yanei is called Huahua Taisui by the people in the capital, but whenever he walks on the street, no one from a good family in the city will be in danger!"

"Bastard, it's shameless! A son of a minister dares to act so boldly. Could it be that the governor of Kaifeng is a poor man, so he allows this kind of person to do evil in the capital?"

Zhao Ji's face was flushed with anger. He always thought that under his rule, the country would be safe and the people would live and work in peace and contentment.Unexpectedly, Mu Xu told him today that right at the foot of the emperor, there was a minister's son who ignored the court's laws and dared to act lawlessly like this.

"Yes, I understand. The governor of Kaifeng is concerned about Gao Qiu's identity, so he turned a blind eye to this matter, right?"

Liang Shicheng and Cai You, seeing Zhao Ji's thunderous anger, were both trembling with fright, they could only keep their heads down and say nothing, but they both secretly blamed Mu Xu for being troublesome.
