Chapter 384 Chapter 387 Innocent
Shen Mu took the pretty maid by the sleeve, half-forcedly pulling her to the back of a clump of trees under the doorstep.The pretty maid mistook him for being a beast, and her face turned pale with horror, and was about to call out, but Shen Mu said in time: "Sister, don't get me wrong, I just want to know who is talking to Miss Fifth inside."

The maidservant was shocked, seeing his ugly face right in front of her eyes, suppressed her disgust, and said in surprise: "It's so far away, can Mr. Mo actually hear Miss talking to Concubine Dong Gui in the hall?"

Of course, Shen Mu could recognize the voice of Dong Shuni, whom Li Yuan accepted as his concubine during the political transaction between Luoyang and Chang'an, who had been with him once in a while, and asked so knowingly, it was just a temporary tactic to delay the attack.

Then he lowered his voice and said: "I have practiced boxing and kicking for a few days, and my ear tendons are more sensitive than ordinary people. Isn't Concubine Dong Gui coming to see me for treatment?"

The pretty maid moved a little away, frowned and said: "Concubine Dong Gui was a close friend of Miss Wu when she was in Luoyang, and this trip is specially to visit Miss Fifth. After they chatted for a while, Miss told me to see if Mr. Mo came back, and asked Mr. Mo is going to meet you, so I don't know about other things, my maidservant!"

Shen Mu groaned in her heart, Dong Shuni was clearly ordered by Yang Xuyan to check if she was Shen Mu's incarnation.

Putting himself in his shoes, if he were Yang Xuyan, he would do the same thing.

The so-called ugly woman must see Weng Gu in the end, so she can avoid it for a while, but she can't avoid it for a lifetime, she turned her thoughts and said: "Sister, wait for me here for a while, I will go to the toilet for convenience, and I will go in to see Concubine Dong Gui and Miss when I come back."

The maidservant didn't know if she thought of the ugly form of this ugly man when he went to the toilet, she had a disgusted look on her face, she turned her face away and said: "Mr. Mo, go and come back quickly, alas!"

Shen Mu warned: "Sister, please don't go in first, otherwise Concubine Dong Gui will know where I am going!"

The pretty maid almost stomped her feet to get angry, and said angrily: "Don't call me elder sister without words, and my maid is Xiao Ning. Mr. Mo, please hurry up and make it easy!"

Shen Mu secretly called out to thank God, and hurried away.

"Clap"!
Shen Mu practiced the "Stealing the sky and changing the sun to shrink the bones", endured infinite pain, and forcibly changed the original state of the bones and muscles with internal strength. As long as he created a little difference in the body, he could hide Dong Shuni, a cunning girl.

After a while, Shen Mu wiped off the cold sweat from the pain on his forehead, and felt that he was not only an inch shorter, but the most wonderful thing was that he had an extra big belly, matching his ugly face, it was even more evil.

Fortunately, the daughters of the Sha family, including Fifth Miss Zhijing, don't usually linger on him, even if he changes shape, they won't notice it.

After comforting himself, Shen Mu patted his stomach, and walked back towards the pretty maid Xiao Ning.

Shen Mu stepped over the threshold, two pairs of beautiful eyes shot at him immediately, with different reactions.

Dong Shuni, who is more attractive and charming, first set her eyes on his ugly face, then moved to his slightly protruding belly, and fell on him because of the tightening of muscles and bones, which made him look outwards, making him even shorter. On Cun Xu's legs, a look of disgust flashed across his eyes, and he lowered his eyes unwilling to see more.

Sha Zhijing never paid attention to his appearance and body, although he had many shortcomings at the moment, she still didn't notice any difference, she smiled as before, "Mr. Mo is here! This is Zhijing's good girl, Now it is the emperor's noble concubine Dong Guifei, who has heard of the gentleman's name, so Yang Zhijing invites the gentleman to come and let her know him."

Shen Mu bowed to the ground, and said in his ugly fake voice: "It turns out to be the imperial concubine, please be greeted by the villain."

Dong Shuni looked around him again, showing disappointment and lack of interest, and said lightly: "This is not the inner garden of the palace, Mr. Mo doesn't need to be polite."

Shen Mu felt that he was lucky enough to pass the test, propping up his body that was sore and unbearable due to exercise, sat in an unnatural posture far below the two women, took the tea from the maid, and looked like he was listening to the teachings.At this time, it was Dong Shuni who wished that this ugly genius doctor would get out of here quickly.

When everyone didn't know what to do, Shafu rushed over and said: "His Royal Highness is here, please come and see Mo Ye immediately."

Shen Mu was surprised, why did Li Jiancheng come to him?

Accompanying Li Jiancheng were Xue Wanche and Feng Liben, and the three of them borrowed the east chamber to have a secret conversation with Shen Mu.

Shen Mu had special scruples about Xue Wanche, because he saw through that he was the top choice in Li Jiancheng's prince clan, regardless of his intelligence or martial arts.

After Li Jiancheng wentssip, he turned to the main topic and said: "Listening to Concubine De's words, Mr. Mo is determined to help the world with medical skills, and he wants to travel around the world according to his family's order, so he has no intention of being an official in our Tang Dynasty. Is there such a thing?"

Only from the fact that he got this news from Concubine Yin De so quickly, he knew that he and Concubine Yin De had a close relationship.Of course, it is also possible that Chang He told him to know, but this possibility is not high, because it involves Shen Mu's praise of him.

Xue Wanche and Feng Liben stared at Shen Mu with twinkling eyes, to see how he would answer.

Of course, Shen Mu knew there was a reason for his words, and he had to see if he could be bought. If he said something unreasonable, it would be strange if Li Jiancheng didn't doubt him.

Shen Mu sighed: "Your Highness, it is clear that when a man comes out to make a living, no one wants to make a fortune. Just because my uncle is good at matching people, he confirmed that the villain's fortune has been full of dangers in the past ten years, and he must go wandering north and south alone. Uncertainty can only be resolved, and only then can the villain practice medicine everywhere."

Li Jiancheng was relieved: "It turns out that Mr. Mo has this difficulty, so this is easy to handle. Xiao Wang first gave Mr. a sum of money as travel expenses, and Mr. returned from exhaustion in the future. At that time, my Tang Dynasty should have ruled the world. Mr. Bao Bao can't enjoy it." full of glory and wealth.”

Shen Mu pretended to have bright eyes, watching Feng Liben put a heavy bag on the table beside him.

Li Jiancheng smiled and said, "Here is 200 taels of gold, please be careful, sir."

Shen Mu was shocked, and bowed to the ground in thanks, "Thank you for your reward, Your Highness."

After sitting down again, Shen Mu felt that both Feng Zhengben and Xue Wanche were less guarded, and looked more relaxed.

Li Jiancheng said: "Now that we are all on our own, I might as well speak the truth. Suppose the emperor asks about Zhang Jieyu's illness, I hope that Mr. can tell the truth, and I will present the cause of my mother's strange illness, just like Mr. Zhang Jieyu said last night. What Lin Yuan said to Gu was that he was poisoned by the slow and severe poison of alternating cold and heat."

Shen Mu secretly screamed loudly, if he didn't know the situation, he would automatically cooperate and enter the game, and it would guarantee that he would not end well. If it were someone else, who would dare not submit obediently under this kind of coercion and lure.

He bowed his head and said: "Of course, the villain knows how to play back to the emperor!"

Li Jiancheng and the three of them all showed joy.

Xue Wanche said casually: "Mr. Mo must keep in mind that this matter must not be brought up to the emperor. You need to wait for the emperor to inquire. Before he wants to talk, he will explain the details. Mr. is a big expert in medicine, and he knows better than us laymen. How to say it seamlessly."

Shen Mu was startled inwardly, and replied: "This bag is on the villain, and the villain will carefully draft a speech, and put it on the plate when the emperor asks."

Seeing that he was so familiar, Li Jiancheng said happily, "Mr. Mo did not live up to Gu's expectations of you. I wonder how long Mr. Mo will stay in Chang'an?"

Shen Mu thought to himself that when Lao Tzu brought out the treasure, you would kneel down and beg me to keep it, but you would not agree.On the surface, he replied humbly: "It should be about [-] days. Because of my uncle's instructions, I can't stay in one place for more than a month."

Li Jiancheng stood up and said: "Since you still have a period of time to stay in Chang'an, I will pick two young and beautiful court ladies to serve you as your bedside, to make sure you are satisfied."

Shen Mu was taken aback, thinking to himself that every move of Lao Tzu is under the supervision of you, Li Jiancheng?Quickly jumped up and said: "Your Highness's kindness, the villain can only appreciate it. Because of my uncle's words, the bad luck has not passed, and you must never approach women."

Li Jiancheng said in astonishment: "There is such a strange taboo. Uncle Ling is indeed an extraordinary person. Ha! So let's wait for Mr. to return from his travels, and I will make arrangements for him."

Shen Mu sent the three of them to the gate, watched them ride away surrounded by personal guards, was about to sneak out to meet Xu Ziling, bumped into the second young master Sha and came back successfully, caught him straight, and insisted on dragging him back into the room to talk , I had to sigh bad luck.

Sitting down in a corner of the lobby, Sha Chenggong said happily: "Brother Mo is indeed a god of medicine. After you gave me the acupuncture, Mrs. Qing's whole body has been reborn. The pain has disappeared, and I am very happy. Please tell me how you can do it." I want to invite Brother Mo to have a casual meal at Feng Ya Ge tonight, and let her thank you in person. So my younger brother once said that appearance is not important, the most important thing is whether you have real skills. But you must never touch Mrs. Qing. Hee! Apart from Mrs. Qing and Miss Xi'er, Feng Ya Ge is full of beauties, tonight Brother Bao Baomo is full of beauty and blessings."

Shen Mu shook his head and sighed with a troubled expression: "I was born to work hard. Your brother-in-law Chang He will come to see me later, and I don't know which royal family member is going to be treated. Yan Fu from Mrs. Qing's side, I have to trouble the second young master to enjoy it alone. Ha! Look, I want to get a tonic for the second young master to nourish your body."

This remark was half-truth and half-false, and Sha Chenggong obviously had scruples about Chang He, so he had to say with a bitter face: "No problem, but can I try to get away as much as possible to go around? Otherwise, it will be difficult for my younger brother to explain to Xi'er."

At this time, the servants come to report, and Chang He will arrive.

Shen Mu felt amused in his heart, and was even more afraid that Sha Chenggong would "confront" Chang He, so he patted him on the shoulder and said, "Young man, let's figure it out!"

Hastily out to meet often where to go.

Shen Mu pulled Chang He Fan out of the door, and said in a low voice, "Let's talk about it when we go out."

Chang Hezhuo's four subordinates gave up a ride to Shen Mu, and the two of them rode out of the Sha family's new house together, and walked towards the Yuema Bridge.

Shen Mu put on a distressed expression, "It hurts so badly" said: "The villain was almost killed by the second young master. Fortunately, you, Mr. Chang, came to rescue me, otherwise I don't know how to get out."

Chang He said with a smile: "Does the success require Mr. to treat the well-known Mrs. Qingqing?"

Shen Mu said: "There is no problem with the treatment, but I am most afraid that he will ask me to drink and socialize with the beauties in the brothel. Alcohol can mess up the sex, and the lust will be even stronger. The villain is practicing the boy's skill. If it is broken, all the hard work will be in vain. .”

Chang He showed a sympathetic look and didn't know how to comfort him for a while.

Shen Mu hit the snake with the stick and said, "Master Chang, can I do the villain a favor?"

Chang He showed the true colors of a loyal man, patted his chest and said: "Brother Mo, if you have anything to say, just say it, and I will do it for you as much as I can."

Shen Mu lowered his voice and said: "In the past two days, I have been treating people day and night, and I was so exhausted that I almost died. After returning home, I was haunted to death by the second young master. Hey! You also know that sometimes I want to rest quietly by myself. Can I presume that I should go to see a doctor at your request when I am hiding?"

Chang He said happily: "There is no problem with this, but the emperor ordered me to inform you that Brother Mo will definitely attend the big banquet in the palace tomorrow night, and my younger brother will come to pick Brother Mo into the palace at that time."

Shen Mu's rhetoric just now was just to find an excuse not to stay in Shafu for the reunion dinner, so as to deal with Yang Xuyan's assassination, but now he was speechless and felt terrible.

Chang He said again: "Brother Mo has grown up to be the most popular person. Not only the emperor and His Royal Highness value you, but even King Qi, who just came back this morning, wants to invite you to Fengya Pavilion tonight. This little brother dare not speak for you. You push back."

Shen Mu groaned in his heart, and after going around for a while, he still wanted to go to the dinner party held by King Qi Li Yuanji, and said dejectedly, "Aren't I going to the palace early tomorrow morning to see your mother?"

Chang He said: "Of course King Qi knows, so Brother Mo just needs to go to his banquet for a while."

Shen Mu made the last effort and sighed: "Brother Chang seems to have forgotten that I practice boy kungfu, and I am most afraid of seduction."

Chang He said: "This bag is on me. I will secretly inform King Qi and ask him to arrange it properly. Baobao ensures that no one will seduce your brother."

Shen Mu smiled wryly and said: "When will King Qi's banquet be held? If there is still some time, I'll go home and have a good sleep first to recover some energy. This is called health preservation."

Chang He glanced at the sun that was sinking in the west, and said: "There is still an hour, it doesn't matter if Brother Mo is late, the younger brother will speak up for Brother Mo!"

Shen Mu confessed his guilt, turned his horse's head, and slipped away as if flying.

Shen Mu handed over the horse to the servants of the Sha family's mansion, and then went to Hou Xibai's secret nest to look for Xu Ziling. At this time, Hou Xibai had just left, and Xu Ziling was studying gambling skills with Lei Jiuzhi, and planned to go to the Mingtang nest later to kill the Quartet.

Shen Mu said to the two of them, "Li Yuanji is back!"

Xu Ziling knew about this earlier, so of course he would not be surprised, nodded and said: "Because someone created the illusion that we entered the customs, of course Li Yuanji will rush back.

Shen Mu said in astonishment, "You actually know more details than me."

Lei Jiuzhi poured tea for him and relayed Hou Xibai's words to him.

Shen Mu's eyes suddenly glowed, and he said, "The best time to hunt for treasures must be tomorrow night, because everyone is gathered in the palace, and afterward, they are full of food and drunk, and they don't have the time to patrol around to see if anyone is secretly watching. Treasure hunting, what does Young Master Ling think?"

Xu Ziling said angrily, "Have you found out where the treasure is?"

Shen Mu said confidently: "After taking the pulse of Miss Zhang tomorrow morning, my younger brother has obtained the permission of Liu Zhenghui, Minister of the Ministry of Industry, to go to the file room of the Ministry of Industry to check the information on the buildings near Yuema Bridge. Yang Su personally supervised the construction of the house, and if he finds the entrance to the treasure, this important task will be on my younger brother!"

Lei Jiuzhi gradually got used to his style, and said earnestly: "The secret vault designed by Master Lu will never be so easy to see through."

Shen Mu turned to Xu Ziling and said, "Li Yuanji will treat me to dinner at Fengyage tonight. Do you know who is the beautiful proprietress of Fengyage and Li Yuanji's favorite beauty?"

Xu Ziling asked in astonishment, "Which one is it?"

Shen Mu leaned over and said mysteriously: "It's the Qingqing girl who once avenged us."

Xu Ziling asked blankly, "Who is Qingqing?"

Shen Mu had already guessed his reaction, explained it clearly with a smile, and sighed: "This proves that she is a person with a conscience, and she will feel guilty afterwards."

Xu Ziling remembered Gao Zhandao's words, and said: "What a coincidence, Cha Jie, like the second young master of your Sha family, is a suitor who falls under Xi'er's skirt. I hope he is just a whim, don't be addicted."

Shen Mu didn't take this matter to heart, and took out the gold presented by Li Jiancheng from his pocket, put it on the table, and said with a smile: "This is a bet I participated in, and if I win, I will be counted."

Immediately, Lei Jiuzhi's eyes lit up, he stood up, took the gold into his arms, and said with a laugh: "Brothers! It's time to go out! Don't let down the good times."

Shen Mu rode into the Fengya Pavilion and got off his horse. Before he could tell that he was the guest of Qi Wang Li Yuanji, Chang He came up to meet him, dragged him aside, and said, "Qi King is waiting for you, let me accompany you in!"

Shen Mu said, "Why are you so embarrassed? I want Brother Chang to pick me up in person."

Chang He held his sleeves and walked towards the east courtyard along the forest path. All the four courtyards of Fengya Pavilion were brightly lit, and the sound of singing, orchestra and laughter could be heard from time to time. The atmosphere was lively, similar to the scene when Shen Mu came to treat Qingqing earlier In comparison, images belong to two different worlds.

Chang He said in a low voice: "King Qi seems to be very concerned about Brother Mo's background. He kept asking Chenggong just now. In fact, he just asked me. Why is there such a turning point?"

Shen Mu's affection for Chang He increased greatly in his heart, he thought he was a good friend, so he was willing to warn himself one step earlier.

Shrugging his shoulders, he said, "The villain is innocent, and he is not afraid of people knowing."

Chang He stopped and said: "This matter is extremely complicated, and it is difficult for me to explain it clearly to Brother Mo. To put it simply, Chang'an is currently in turmoil, because it is suspected that two well-known and powerful people have sneaked into Chang'an to plot something. And King Qi is the commander in charge of arresting these two people. It is not unreasonable for them to doubt Brother Mo, the reason is that they do not know that Brother Mo is the knowledge of my father-in-law. It should be no problem to clear up the doubts from Chenggong just now. !"

Shen Mu really wanted to ask him what Sha Chenggong said, but of course he didn't dare to ask, and only said, "Who is so powerful?"

Chang He said: "Brother Mo still doesn't know about this matter. Another reason why my younger brother came out to welcome Brother Mo is that among the people present tonight, there is 'Huo Hua Tuo' Wei Zhengxing."

Shen Mu's spine felt cold immediately, and he lost his voice: "What?"

Chang He said understandingly: "I know that Brother Mo doesn't want to see him. This man is jealous and envious of Brother Mo, and he looks like he is traveling with an enemy country. I don't like him either. If I knew in advance that King Qi invited him, I would Simply let Brother Mo cancel King Qi's banquet tonight."
