Chapter 1211 The life-saving grace is reciprocated by the spring?
Looking down at the two strong men lying on the ground, Nangong Mo sighed repeatedly, "Why are everyone doing such dishonest transactions these days?"
The two men stared at the woman who seemed very resentful in front of them, and almost hardened poison in their eyes. Nangong Mo walked to the strong man in the lead, raised his foot and hooked the small treasure that he had originally handed to each other and gently flicked it up and fell into Nangong Mo's hand again. Nangong Mo threw it into the young man's arms. The young man held the things in his hand a little blankly, and for a moment he couldn't come back to his senses.
Nangong Mo didn't care whether he looked down at the person who was still staring at him unwillingly, and raised his eyebrows and said, "Don't look at me like this. If you hit the knife just now, wouldn't it be me who is so miserable now? No, it should be even more miserable than you now. From the beginning, you didn't plan to leave us two alive, right? It was just that I found that I had some skills and had to find another way."
"Who are you!"
"Guess." Nangong Mo said with a smile, "I have been so bored recently. I didn't expect that I would encounter such an interesting thing when I went out to walk around. Come and tell me who your master is, and also let me pay attention to some amazing figure who dares to blatantly kill people and rob people in Jinling City?"
The two of them gritted their teeth and said slowly, "Looking at the skill of you two who are not even second-rate, you should not be a great family. Those who dare to be so bold in Jinling City are either very supportive or very stupid. With your skills, I really don't think your brain can be more powerful than your skills. So... they should not be a great family, and it should not be difficult to find out if you check it casually."
"you!"
Nangong Mo was puzzled, "Am I wrong?"
After saying that, he ignored these two people and waved to the young man in the dark and said, "Scholar over there, are you staying here waiting for the yamen runners of Yingtian Mansion to come, or go together?"
The young man finally came back from this sudden change. He looked at the two people below and asked, "Is this girl really saying? You... not only want to steal things, but also want my life?"
Naturally, the other party would not answer him, and he actually didn't really need the answer. His body, which was not strong enough, shook, and his already pale face looked even more ugly. After a while, he suddenly threw the tightly held treasure bag in his hand to Nangong Mo again, and lowered his head to the person on the ground and said, "I've given it to someone. If I still have the chance to see your master, tell him what happened back then, and I, Shao Fang, will never come to disturb me again."
Nangong Mo raised his eyebrows and opened the brocade bag with one hand, but there was a jade ring inside, and it was only half of it. This young man really didn't lie. This jade ring was not expensive, and it was indeed not a treasure. Ordinary robbers might think it was valuable, but it was really nothing to Nangong Mo. It was worth up to three hundred taels.
Just for the sake of something, these two people are not only willing to pay thousands of taels of silver, but also want to kill and silence them?
Nangong Mo played with the jade ring with great interest, raised his eyebrows and asked, "Token of settlement? Or what to repay kindness?"
The young man smiled bitterly. Nangong Mo picked up the jade ring and observed carefully at the moonlight. Finally, he saw a small word Zhao below the jade ring. Nangong Mo thought, "You said your name is Shao Fang? Shao Fang, a talented man in Quzhou? The popular golden list should be that there is a bright future. How could it be... I remembered that I heard that the ancestral home of Lord Zhao, the Fengzheng doctor, seemed to be Quzhou?"
After hearing Nangong Mo's words, not only the young man, but also the two people lying on the ground, changed their faces together. Seeing their expressions, Nangong Mo knew that he had guessed correctly. In an instant, seven or eight versions of bloody stories were found in his mind. Shao Fang looked at the woman in blue in front of him with a cautious expression and asked, "Miss...who is it?"
Nangong Mo did not hide it and said frankly: "Oh, my surname is Nangong, and my single name is the word "mo"."
The two people lying on the ground almost vomited blood: If you had said earlier that you were the Princess of Chu, we would not attack you even if we had ten courage! Isn’t this a cheating person?
Shao Fang was stunned for a while before slowly saying: "It turns out to be His Highness, Princess Chu, I'm lucky to meet."
Nangong Mo smiled gentlely, "I heard that the kindness of saving life should be repaid in a spring?"
Shao Fang was stunned again and bowed helplessly: "Leave the princess's orders."
Nangong Mo looked at him for a while and said, "I lack a manager in my mansion. Do you want to try it?"
Shao Fang's face changed slightly, and he was silent for a while and said, "The princess looks down on Shao Fang, so it is naturally a privilege for Shao Fang. I am willing to work hard for everyone." Hearing this, Nangong Mo looked at him in surprise. You know, accepting an invitation from Nangong Mo would be equivalent to giving up the opportunity to take the imperial examination. It is said that the third-rank official in front of the prime minister, but if he really has the opportunity to be a third-rank official, who would be willing to go to see the prime minister? What's more, if the person in front of him is really Shao Fang, he would be a talented man who is famous in Quzhou. Jiang Zhicheng, who is as famous as him, became a high-ranking official, but he became an unknown official in charge of the royal family. This gap is not something that anyone can bear.
Shao Fang said: "The princess saves her life. If the princess had not taken action, Shao Fang would have been dead at this time."
Nangong Mo turned his head and looked at him, nodded and said, "Since that's the case, come with me."
"yes."
Shao Fang responded with respect, and actually treated himself as a servant from the King of Chu's Mansion and followed Nangong Mo respectfully and reached out of the alley. He didn't even look at the two people lying in the alley behind him.
After leaving the dark alley, the noise in the square and the firelight that seemed like daylight rushed into the ears of the two of them. Nangong Mo narrowed his eyes slightly at the still lively square. These happy and carefree people could not have imagined how terrible tragedy almost happened in the dark alley behind him. A generation of talented men almost fell into this dark and dirty place.
He looked at Shao Fang with a smile, "Does he feel like he is returning to the world?"
Shao Fang pulled the corner of his lips and the expression on his face was a little complicated but there was no smile. Nangong Mo Youran said, "I have been wasting a lot of time for you, so let's hurry up and go and have a walk."
Shao Fang whispered: "The Hundred Tribes Conference will last for three days, so the princess doesn't have to hurry up."
Nangong Mo said: "Where is time? The day after tomorrow is the birthday of the New Year. I am afraid I won't have any leisure tomorrow."
"What are you doing there?" Nangong Mo narrowed his eyes and looked into the distance. He saw that there seemed to be a fire in the southeast corner. Shao Bingdao was not surprised. He pondered for a moment and said, "It must be someone who made a bonfire dance party? Princess, listen, there is music." Nangong Mo looked at him, "How do you know?"
Shao Fang said calmly: "Although Quzhou is not a border area, it is also considered close. When his subordinates were young, they walked with their fathers. All ethnic groups on the southern border and many effects liked singing and dancing. Every festival, they would ignite bonfires, regardless of whether men or women were singing or dancing."
"So that's it, let's go over and take a look." Nangong Mo said with a smile.
"yes."
Through the large square with crowds, a huge bonfire really rose on a large open space in the southeast corner. Many men and women in various costumes formed a circle, and some danced happily with the music. It can be seen that they are not of the same tribe or even many of them are not from the same country, but they are very harmonious and joyful at this time. However, people wearing Central Plains clothing rarely join, and most of them are just watching. Moreover, these enthusiastic and unrestrained people seem much more restricted than those of the Central Plains people who are deeply influenced by ethics.
Among these people, the most dazzling one was Princess Lingxiang, who was wearing a bright red dress near the campfire. She took light steps, and her red clothes were like a huge red butterfly dancing under the fire because of the rotation of her body. The firelight made her gorgeous face even more red, her eyes were like stars, and her face was as beautiful as peach blossoms.
"Flawless." A low voice came into Nangong Mo's ears. Nangong Mo looked in the voice and saw Wei Junmo standing in the crowd not far away looking at him. Naturally, there were the enthusiastic Emperor Taichu, Chen Yu and Xue Zhen, who seemed relaxed but were actually alert, and Xiao Qianchi and others who came together for some reason. They were all here, as if she was the most incompetent. Nangong Mo couldn't help but smile and waved to the other side and walked over.
“Flawless.”
Wei Junmo reached out and held Nangong Mo's hand, and his indifferent purple eyes slowly swept across Shao Fang. When he paired the deep purple eyes, Shao Fang was shocked and immediately understood the identity of the person in front of him. He bowed his hand and wanted to pay a visit, but he froze when he remembered the inconvenience of the environment. Nangong Mo smiled and said, "There is no need to be polite outside."
Emperor Taichu also swept over curiously when he heard the sound here, saying, "You will run away and come back now, this is..."
Nangong Mo smiled and said, "I accidentally saved a weak scholar who was robbed."
Nangong Mo did not introduce it, and Emperor Taichu didn't care. He looked at the dust that was rubbing off Shao Fang's shoulders and clothes. He said, "Most scholars don't have much energy, but... there are still people in Jinling City who dare to rob on the street?" Nangong Mo smiled and said, "People are still lying in the alley. I have asked the people from Yingtian Mansion to catch people." Emperor Taichu nodded and stopped caring about this. Seeing that Nangong Mo did not mean to promote his identity, Shao Fang was not very conspicuous and stood silently in the crowd behind. He was just an inconspicuous scholar, but he was only followed by Nangong Mo and asked a few more questions. At this time, no one paid attention to him, so he naturally easily made people forget his existence.
Nangong Mo stood beside Wei Junmo and whispered: "Why are you here?"
Wei Junmo looked at Emperor Taichu and didn't say anything. Nangong Mo knew that Emperor Taichu wanted to have fun with the people. Compared to crowded people to buy things, it is naturally better to watch people singing and dancing here. After all, no matter how novel the things sold in the square are, they will not be better than the tributes and gifts sent by various countries.
On the bonfire, Princess Lingxiang, who was dancing happily, also saw Nangong Mo and others who had just arrived. Stopped the dance steps and came over quickly. She was the focus of the audience. She walked towards the side. Everyone's eyes naturally followed this. After Princess Lingxiang walked in, she found that Emperor Taichu was there. After hesitating for a moment, she walked over with a smile. She bowed slightly to Emperor Taichu and bowed silently, and then said to Nangong Mo with a smile: "I didn't expect to see two of you here?"
Nangong Mo smiled and said, "But we disturbed the princess's interest?"
Princess Ling Xiang smiled and said, "How could it be? Of course, the more people they dance, the better. The three princesses come together?"
Sun Yan'er leaned against Xiao Qianjiong, with a slightly embarrassed look. She was a lady who grew up properly since childhood. The fact that dancing in public challenges her bottom line. Zhu Chuyu smiled lightly. She didn't mind dancing, but she had to care about Emperor Taichu. She also understood the principle of playing to her strengths and avoiding her weaknesses. No matter what her personality is or whether she had learned dancing, she would have compared her princesses with Nanyue in this kind of occasion. Even if she didn't humiliate herself, it would definitely not be a smart choice.
Zhu Chuyu looked at Nangong Mo and the meaning was very obvious: You are the eldest sister-in-law, we all listen to you.
Nangong Mo smiled and said, "Forget it. With Princess Lingxiang here, we will not be ugly."
Princess Lingxiang smiled and said, "No, you should be happy to eat meat, drink, sing, and dance at this time? What's the fun of standing like this? Look at them, aren't they very happy?" Princess Lingxiang pointed over. Sure enough, although many people's hands and feet were stiff, their dancing postures were naturally not beautiful, but their smiles were very happy.
Princess Lingxiang held Nangong Mo with one hand and said, "Look, everyone danced happily. I saw Princess Dongzhu just now. Only you Zhongyuan people just watched, which made everyone feel a little embarrassed. You are not bored either, well... Mr. Xiao, don't you think so?"
Emperor Taichu raised his eyebrows slightly, looked at Princess Lingxiang and nodded and smiled, "What he said makes sense, flawless. If you are interested, go and have fun, don't worry about us old men."
Emperor Taichu was stationed in the border areas all year round, and he was not a person who followed the rules. He didn't care much about the literati's value, and it was not bad to share the same fun with the people in this occasion.
When Princess Lingxiang heard that Emperor Taichu responded, she was so happy that she pulled her into the dancing crowd without even agreeing. Nangong Mo turned her hand and grabbed her wrist with her backhand. Princess Lingxiang's eyes lit up and her other hand immediately put it on. Neither of them broke out silently in a blink of an eye. In the blink of an eye, she took more than a dozen moves, but Nangong Mo was more skilled and clamped Princess Lingxiang's hand with both hands.
Princess Lingxiang was a little disappointed when she saw that she was not far away. However, she saw Princess Dongzhu not far away also saw them. She immediately waved to the other side with a smile, and then looked back at Nangong Mo. Nangong Mo had no choice but to let Princess Dongzhu come over, maybe this place would really become the focus of everyone in a while. If Emperor Taichu is not here, it would be fine. She is thick-skinned and not afraid of being watched. However, too many people are paying attention to it. She had to turn her head and smile at Zhu Chuyu and Sun Yan'er, "Two brothers and sisters, let's go and play together."
