Martial Arts Master Travelled to Ancient Time and Farms - Chapter 279
Chapter 279 The army traveled three thousand miles
The sixth prince recently got a new young **** as a playmate. This person is proficient in cockfighting and dog fighting, and is also good at conditioning crickets.
He is especially good at observing words and expressions, flattering others, and can always find all kinds of novelties from the people. He coaxes the sixth prince to be very happy for a while, and he will take him with him wherever he goes.
This time out of the palace, the sixth prince also brought this person with him.
Needless to say about the prosperity and excitement outside the palace, the sixth prince went to restaurants and teahouses and other places, and heard some of the most popular rumors in recent days: there are poems about Cheng Ling and books about Cheng Ling.
Listening to Cheng Ling’s poems being sung, the sixth prince immediately remembered that he had once shown favor to this fifth-rank secretary Lang, but Cheng Ling actually turned it down with excuses.
The sixth prince was suddenly unhappy, and said angrily, “It’s just a villain who pretends to be aloof because of his talent. Being so praised and not coming forward to clarify, just trying to gain fame, really disgusting!”
He didn’t avoid people when he uttered bad words, and immediately attracted several glaring glances.
There is also humanity: “Where did the kid come from talking nonsense, Mr. Yuzhi’s book is of great benefit to the people, what are you talking about, kid?”
The sixth prince was refuted by people’s glaring, but he raised his head even more, and stared back viciously: “Who said that? You are talking nonsense! You, you, you, and you… talking about you! What are you looking at? Be careful… this young master will dig out all your eyeballs!”
Such a vicious appearance, coupled with the sudden murderous look of the guards around him, anyone with discerning eyes can guess that this person must have an extraordinary background.
The capital is full of dignitaries, the general dignitaries are not scary, the scary ones are the ones who don’t follow the rules at all.
That’s all, what’s the point of arguing with such people?
At the moment, all the passers-by looked away, and some timid ones even shrank their heads and ran away.
The sixth prince laughed triumphantly when he saw it.
This feeling, to be honest, is a bit exhilarating. There are too many masks to wear in the palace, and the young sixth prince will also feel that going out of the palace to vent his anger is something that can relieve depression.
At this time, there was a voice from behind the sixth prince: “They are all fools, deceived by rumors. Brother, you have great insight, and you are the only one who is sober in the troubled times. Instead, you will be misunderstood by the world, alas!”
The last sigh can be said to have reached the heart of the sixth prince.
The sixth prince quickly turned his head to look, only to see a fifteen or sixteen-year-old boy standing there, waving a folding fan and smiling slightly at himself.
Seeing that the sixth prince turned his head to look over, the young man put away his folding fan again, cupped his fists and cupped his hands to the sixth prince.
The sixth prince asked: “Who are you?”
The young man smiled and said, “Feng Sheng, the third son of Uncle Zhongyi’s family. Haven’t you asked your brother’s name yet?”
When the sixth prince heard about Feng Sheng’s background, his heart suddenly moved.
Feng Sheng is the third son of Uncle Zhongyi. Although the sixth prince has never met him before, he basically knows the general situation of the Xungui family in the capital.
Thus the sixth prince knew that Feng Sheng was the concubine son of the Feng family, and Feng Da, the son of the loyal uncle, was the second son of the Feng family. As for his eldest son, he died unfortunately, otherwise Feng Da, who is the second son, would not be able to take the position of the eldest son.
But not long ago, Feng Da was stabbed in the chest by Murong Shujian. Although he didn’t die at the time, whether the bones of his body can heal is another matter. Or even if the injury is healed, who knows if there will be sequelae after receiving that kind of injury?
This Feng Sheng can be wooed!
The sixth prince suddenly became interested, and he opened his mouth to give himself an identity and said: “What do you hope, there are distant relatives in He Xiang’s mansion, and now they are staying there temporarily.”
Prime Minister He Han is not only the uncle of the prince Xiao Man, but also the uncle of the sixth prince Xiao Ruo. The Sixth Prince felt that his pseudonym was quite ingenious, and it could be described as half-truth, half-false, not a lie.
Feng Sheng quickly bowed his hands to the sixth prince again, not because he despised him because he was young, but as if he treated him like an adult.
This approach made the sixth prince feel more comfortable physically and mentally, and the two became friends after a while.
Half a day later, the sixth prince drowned in a mountain pool outside the city. At that time, many guards were driven away by him, and they stayed ten feet away, and the speed of rescue was slightly slower.
Feng Sheng, who was closer to the sixth prince, jumped into the pool alone, and was the first to grab the sixth prince from the deep pool.
Needless to say about the thrills at that time, the sixth prince was playing in the water, but his feet were entangled by the aquatic plants at the bottom of the pool. When Feng Sheng rescued people, the sixth prince was panicked and had only the instinct to survive, so he clung to him tightly. Feng Sheng.
Finally, Feng Sheng choked up a lot of saliva, and the sixth prince even tormented himself so much that he almost lost his temper at the time.
Fortunately, the guards on the shore soon came to help, and Feng Sheng’s water skills were really good. In the end, everyone worked together to rescue the sixth prince ashore.
After this incident, the sixth prince’s trust in Feng Sheng was naturally established.
The sixth prince said gratefully: “Brother Feng treats me with sincerity, Gu… I must not treat Brother Feng badly!”
He had quietly imitated the prince’s speech in private, and felt that being able to call himself “solitary” was a very prestigious thing.
Feng Sheng didn’t seem to hear his slip of the tongue, but just smiled boldly: “Brother He is too polite, you and I are friends, why should we care about these?”
After laughing, Feng Sheng glanced at the sixth prince casually, and persuaded with some concern: “However…Brother He is younger, after all, these wild waters are dangerous, and it is better to visit as little as possible.”
This persuasion immediately made the sixth prince unhappy.
Seeing that his eyebrows were raised slightly, as if he was about to explode, Feng Sheng said again: “Brother He, don’t blame me for being so wordy, if the news of today’s incident reaches the ears of your parents, they will definitely not allow you to go outside to play in the water again.” “Brother He, think about it, is this the truth?”
Very well, when Feng Sheng said this, the sixth prince immediately glared at the guards around him, strictly ordering them to keep the matter of today secret, and not to talk nonsense when they go back.
Feng Sheng, who had been “unfaithful to his ears” once, has risen again in the Sixth Prince’s heart.
The sixth prince never expected that this concubine of the Feng family who risked his life to save his life, and who would persuade him faithfully, turned out to be someone sent by Xiaoman!
After returning to the palace, the sixth prince really concealed from the imperial concubine the fact that he almost drowned today. However, he mentioned Feng Sheng and told the noble concubine that he met Feng Sheng outside and was making friends with him.
The noble concubine thought for a while and said: “The concubine of the Feng family has some value. If you want to win him over, you might as well show him some kindness. Perhaps, during this southern expedition, he can also travel with the army.”
Xiao Man originally said that he wanted to make some small stumbling blocks for the sixth prince, but in fact, the hole he made was deep and long.
Five days later, the sixth prince occasionally felt the wind and cold, and suddenly developed a high fever.
And on this day, the three-way army, which had been assembled for a long time, finally set off towards the south on this bright morning!
