Traveling through Tianlong: Starting from the Zhenlong chess game

Chapter 289: Accepting the order at the critical moment, the storm is about to come

After everyone left, Hu Yanjin folded his arms and said with a smile: "Your Majesty is about to get married. Now he allows me to stay in the house overnight. Aren't you afraid of others gossiping?"

Facing this girl's teasing, Zhao Mu responded shamelessly: "Of course I'm not afraid, you will be mine anyway."

Hearing this, Hu Yanjin snorted cutely and replied: "Stop being so sentimental. If you want me to give you a baby, you should dream first!"

Zhao Mu smiled and replied: "Okay, let's do things like dreams at night. Now let's talk about some serious things. I have an urgent matter that I want to ask you for help. This matter is related to whether the Song Dynasty can defeat the enemy. Liao State. The fate of the Song Dynasty and mine now rest on your shoulders." After saying that, Zhao Mu put his hand on Hu Yanjin's shoulder. And he also deliberately added some force.

Hu Yanjin looked at Zhao Mu's hand on her shoulder. She also changed her usual playful smile and nodded to Zhao Mu with firm eyes.

Afterwards, the two returned to the inner hall. Then he said to Zhao Ji: "Mother, the emperor's brother is coming to visit his relatives tomorrow. Please make preparations. We must not lose our etiquette. I have something important to discuss with Princess Huyan, so I'll go back first."

Zhao Ji nodded silently. Then he went to prepare for the arrival of the Dali Emperor's brother tomorrow.

And Zhao Mu brought Hu Yanjin to the inner house.

In the inner house, the four girls Mei Lan, Bamboo and Chrysanthemum, and Mu Wanqing were also there. Because Zhao Mu specifically ordered Mu Wanqing not to go out casually during this period, the few people living in the inner house were not very clear about what was going on outside.

Hu Yanjin said: "Well! If you have anything, just tell me."

Looking at the appearance of these two people, Mu Wanqing couldn't help but frown, and she said: "What is there that needs to be troubled by Sister Huyan to handle in person? The four sisters Meilan, Zhuju and I are also idlers, what's the matter? Can we not handle the matter?"

Faced with Mu Wanqing's sour words, Zhao Mu replied: "Haha, this matter can only be entrusted to Princess Huyan at the moment. Besides, this matter is very important, and none of you five are locals. Even if you are allowed to go, I'm afraid it will take a lot of trouble. In a few days, you and I will get married. Wan'er, you'd better stay in the house honestly these days. So it's most appropriate for Princess Huyan to go to this matter."

Zhao Mu smiled and said, "I haven't had time to see this yet. Something happened today, so I'll deal with those big things first."

Zhao Mu looked at Hu Yanjin and said, "Okay, let's talk about some serious matters first. Princess Huyan, I have something important to ask you to do."

When Ju Jian saw Zhao Mu back, she quickly stood up, threw away the leaf card in her hand and said, "Young Master, you are back!"

"Ah? Ah Zi, let's forget it, but is this the way Princess Zhennan is in your eyes, Wan'er?" Zhao Mu asked back.

Mu Wanqing asked doubtfully: "What happened? What happened? Could it be that Ah Zi was naughty again? Or was that woman Gao Mei acting up in public at the banquet?"

Mu Wanqing held her cheek and said, "It's natural. That woman has always disliked me. When I returned to Dali, I went to visit her out of politeness, but she looked so domineering. , It really makes people very angry. And she is also very opposed to me coming to get married."

Zhao Mu asked Yanjin to sit down, and then the two sat down. Zhao Mu said: "It's not that Princess Zhennan was causing trouble, but something else happened. I'll tell you the specific things later."

Seeing Zhao Mu's determination, although Mu Wanqing felt unhappy in her heart, she couldn't say anything else.

Mu Wanqing also looked at the door and said: "How is it? Are you satisfied with the dowry your father brought you this time? This is what I specifically requested from my father. Fortunately, the Queen and Dao Baifeng are also very generous. There is no stinginess at all, you gave me such a big betrothal gift before, and I got back all the money we spent before."

Zhao Mu said to Hu Yanjin: "Princess Huyan, I will write a letter in my own hand soon, and you can help me send it to the chief helmsman of the Beggar Clan in Luoyang. You have met my elder brother Qiao Feng, please give me my letter." Him. If eldest brother is not here, give this letter to Elder Bai Shijing and ask him to hand it over to eldest brother. Please come to the capital to meet me as soon as possible. "

Although Zhao Mu wanted to invite Qiao Feng to come to the capital to drink his wedding wine, the status of the two of them was very different. On that day in Tiande Mute Valley, Zhao Mu privately invited Qiao Feng to drink his wedding wine, but Qiao Feng Feng also declined politely because of his background.

Now that he asked Qiao Feng for help, Zhao Mu was really embarrassed. But there is nothing we can do about it. This matter is extremely urgent. Although Zhao Mu himself was confident that he could defeat the Liao people by himself, if he had the help of the Beggar Clan, it would be a good thing with twice the result and half the effort. In short, having an extra layer of insurance is not a bad thing.

Zhao Mu continued: "This matter is of great importance. If I don't have the help of my elder brother, then I will have to face the enemy alone."

Hu Yanjin nodded and said, "Leave this matter to me. But I have a condition."

Zhao Mu chuckled and said, "Haha, you really know how to choose the right time. Well, what are your conditions? As long as I can satisfy it, I will try my best to satisfy it."

Hu Yanjin said: "It's very simple! Take me with you when you go on an expedition! I want to be a pioneer officer!"

Zhao Mu said: "It's okay to take you with me. If everyone wants to go, they can all go and have fun. But you better save it, Pioneer Officer. I will lead the team personally this time. Where is the Pioneer Officer who wants you to come?" Do?"

Hu Yanjin replied: "That's fine! As long as I can go on the expedition with you. I'll help you run this trip."

The conversation between the two made Mu Wanqing confused.

At this time, Ju Jian, who was most considerate, had already brought Zhao Mu the Four Treasures of the Study.

Zhao Mu immediately wrote a letter to Qiao Feng, inviting him to come to the capital to discuss matters.

After Hu Yanjin collected the letter, he immediately prepared to go to Luoyang to meet Qiao Feng without delay.

Facing the five little girls' questions, Zhao Mu also told them all the ins and outs of the matter.

Mei Lan, Zhu Ju and others were very excited after hearing this, but Mu Wanqing could not help but frown.

Mu Wanqing said: "It is such a dangerous thing! Then I will go too."

Zhao Mu smiled and said, "The four of them, Princess Huyan, and A'Zhu can all come with me. As for Wan'er, you'd better stay."

Mu Wanqing squinted her eyes and asked, "Didn't you say there's no danger? Why did you leave me alone at home? Do you think I'm worse than them?"

Zhao Mu shook his head and said: "Of course not. It's just that I invited Brother Duan and his wife to go with me this time. If you are not afraid of seeing me."

Mu Wanqing immediately said after hearing this: "Okay! I will take care of my mother-in-law at home and wait for you to come back. I won't go."

Zhao Mu couldn't help but laugh when he saw Mu Wanqing's reaction.

This day is the last calm before the storm.

This is because something big will happen tomorrow, whether at Zhao Mu's home or in the court.
