Chapter 15 Fragrant Pastry

The gate of Jinguyuan is still busy with traffic even in the evening.

Many people were still blocking the outside of Jingu Garden, and some people gave away thousands of gold just to see Wang Sheng once.

Some of them want something, but of course, these people have never been seen before.

If he wanted to meet them, Wang Sheng would probably have to meet countless people every day.

Even if there is a clone technique, Wang Sheng may not be able to do it.

However, at this time, there were many people at the entrance of Jinguyuan, but they gave way to a large space.

In the open space, there was a huge chariot with the logo of the King of the East China Sea engraved on it. Behind the chariot, there were fifty armored followers.

This formation made the people around them tremble, and they subconsciously gave up their positions.

"Your Majesty, this Prince of Luoyang doesn't have a title yet. Your Majesty should call him into the palace. Why is he waiting outside the Golden Valley Garden? It should be noted that this Prince of Luoyang is just a humble person. Now in the eyes of everyone, your reputation is not good.

No guarantee."

Sima Yue's lips curled up slightly, but he didn't care at all.

"It's just a little reputation. Besides, if the reputation is too good, it's actually a bad thing."

He Lun didn't know why Sima Yue said this.

He is a big and powerful man, and if he is asked to kill people, he is a good hand, but if he is asked to guess Sima Yue's thoughts, even if he is given two more heads, he will not be able to figure it out.

"The general should also take a look. The rumored Wang Sheng of Luoyang is really as magical as the rumors say. I'm afraid it's just a rumor."

King Donghai was noncommittal, but his eyes flickered.

"There are rumors circulating that he is Wenquxing who descended to earth. If it is really Wenquxing, then it would be perfect for the king to pay his respects in person."

What Wenquxingjun?

If he is Lord Wenquxing, I will be God Haotian.

The King of East China Sea did not take He Lun's words to heart at all.

"The king of Luoyang is an outstanding person. It's okay to meet him."

While the two were talking, Wang Sheng, dressed in fine clothes, also appeared in front of the King of Donghai.

As the saying goes, a man relies on his clothes and a horse relies on his saddle. When Wang Sheng was wearing coarse clothes, he didn't look very good. But after he put on his gorgeous clothes, he looked like a god.

In Sima Yue's eyes, he saw an extremely handsome man with wind-swept sleeves standing in front of him. His slender white hands held a fan, the corners of his mouth were slightly hooked, and he smiled without saying a word.

But he looks like a handsome man.

"Sheng Wang, a common man, pays homage to the King of the East China Sea."

When he saw the King of the East China Sea, Wang Sheng had to pay a big courtesy. Since Sima Yue came to see Wang Sheng, he naturally would not let Wang Sheng use this courtesy.

He walked forward quickly, supported Wang Sheng, and said with a chuckle, "It's just a courtesy, why should you be serious?"

Wang Sheng smiled softly and went down the stairs.

The collar and cuffs of Sima Yue's indigo robe are embroidered with flowing silk and cloud-patterned piping. A wide-brimmed blue auspicious cloud belt is tied around his waist. His black hair is tied up with a small silver crown inlaid with jade.

The brown and black eyes are clear and bright, but they are mysterious and difficult to comprehend. The face is clear and elegant, but there is a sense of majesty of a prince and general. With the blood of an emperor, he seems to be born with a kind of intimidation.

force.

Wang Sheng's first impression when he saw Sima Yue was that he was not an ordinary person.

"Your Majesty, please come inside."

This time, Sima Yue did not give in.

He walked in front, and Wang Sheng followed slowly, walking side by side with him.

Donghai King didn't feel anything, but He Lun behind him frowned tightly, but due to what Donghai King said to him before, the frown was relieved in the end.

"Jinguyuan, I have been here before. It is a good place, but now it is occupied by my virtuous brother."

The King of Donghai is nearly thirty years old, so it is not unreasonable to call him a wise brother.

"It's just a favor from His Highness the Crown Prince. Otherwise, with my background, I would never have been able to get such a good place."

The King of Donghai shook his head and said with a smile, "My dear brother, you are being too modest. Everyone in the world regards your husband as the Wenqu star who descended to earth. The reason why the prince is able to achieve today's achievements is probably indispensable to his contribution."

Wang Sheng smiled noncommittally and did not answer the question.

"Your Majesty, I have already laid out a banquet in the main hall. It's better to get in quickly to avoid the food getting cold."

Wang Sheng obviously didn't want to talk nonsense with the King of Donghai anymore.

Wang Sheng stepped forward quickly, and King Donghai also increased his speed.

Within half a quarter of an hour, the main hall was already in sight.

The huge main hall could probably accommodate a thousand people drinking together, but now there was only one dining table and two cushions sitting opposite each other.

In the next song, the music of the musicians started quietly, and the beautiful dancers danced gracefully.

For a time, the entire main hall became lively.

Sima Yue slowly sat down, glanced at the dancing girl Mei Ji below, and then fixed his gaze on Wang Sheng again.

"My good brother will enjoy it."

"Then the king is here, so I have time to listen to this song and dance."

"oh?"

King Donghai smiled softly.

Although it was said to be a banquet, there was no wine, only tea, and even the meat dishes were made from vegetarian dishes that looked like meat dishes.

"During the national mourning period, my dear brother, please stop singing and dancing."

Wang Sheng nodded slightly.

"The king's feelings for Your Majesty are really heavy, and I am amazed."

Wang Sheng waved his hand gently, and the singing and dancing suddenly stopped.

"My dear brother, why don't you call me cousin? It's really a blessing to call me a king."

"How does this work?"

Wang Sheng looked serious.

"How can this be impossible?"

King Donghai also looked serious.

"After all, there is order between superiority and inferiority."

"Respect and inferiority are nothing but status. We have been friends since ancient times. There is a huge gap in age and status, but you and I are worthy of each other. What's more, if my husband is not a thing in the pond, what will happen if my name matches my appearance?"

This King of East China Sea really knows how to talk!

In this regard, Wang Sheng did not want to waste time.

After all, the sky is completely dark now.

"Then I've been so arrogant. Brother Yuan Chao, why are you here today?"

The King of Donghai picked up the teacup, took a sip, and said with a smile, "I just came to meet the rumored Wen Quxing."

Wang Sheng laughed and didn't say anything.

"I'm afraid Brother Yuan Chao is disappointed?"

"Not really."

Sima Yue rolled his eyes and asked, "I heard that the prince has not yet reached the crown?"

"It's really still a year away."

In fact, it was more than two years.

"You have achieved such an achievement at such a young age. My virtuous brother's future achievements may be limitless."

"Brother Yuan Chao is ridiculous, but he is just eating and waiting to die."

"If even my dear brother says that he is just hanging around and waiting to die, then I'm afraid I'm worse off than just hanging around and waiting to die."

This King of the East China Sea made a lot of noises, but he didn't get to the point.

Just make some twists and turns.

After talking to Sima Yue for a quarter of an hour, Wang Sheng also entered the sage mode.

Since you won't tell me the purpose of coming here, I'll just chat with you.

Anyway, although Wang Sheng has things to do, he can't compare to the King of East China Sea.

Furthermore, this Jingu Garden is his home, and the residence of King Donghai is in Luoyang City.

The two of them chatted like this for nearly an hour.

All the tea has been finished.

Wang Sheng was smiling, but the smile on Sima Yue's handsome face began to look a little forced.

This Wang Sheng of Luoyang really is not in a hurry!

In the end, King Donghai had no choice but to speak first.

"I heard that the husband is not married yet? But?"

Forehead?

Wang Sheng was stunned for a moment and asked, "Is it possible that Brother Yuanchao still wants to be a matchmaker?"

King Donghai nodded slightly.

"I have a little sister who is in her prime, so her appearance is naturally very handsome."

This aunt of Director Wang seems to be the sister of the Wang family of Donghai.

Sima Yue has quite a few sisters.

"I am very moved, but His Highness the Crown Prince has already arranged a match for me."

Talked about a matchmaker?

Sima Yue was stunned for a moment, and his face suddenly became a little ugly.

"who?"

"Princess Quang Binh."

Princess Quang Binh

Sima Yue was stunned for a moment and stopped talking.

Princess Guangping is of the bloodline of Emperor Wu, so her level of nobility is naturally much more noble than that of the daughter of a vassal king.

In addition, the prince acted as a matchmaker.

No matter which point it is, the King of Donghai is beaten by the prince!

"The prince is really far-sighted and considers his virtuous brother!"

Wang Sheng smiled softly and said nothing.

If Sima Yue came here just for the sake of matchmaking, then his trip today would be a disappointment.

"It's okay. I originally wanted to get married to my virtuous brother. Now it seems that although we can't have a closer relationship, Princess Guangping is also a queen of the emperor's blood and a member of my Sima family. From now on, you and I can also be said to be members of the same family.

of people.”

Um.

If you say that, everyone in the Sima family and I are relatives.

Of course, they are the kind of relatives who can't be beaten with anything.

"After His Majesty's body is delivered to the funeral palace and the Crown Prince ascends the throne, I would like to invite you to a poetry gathering. Is that okay?"

Poetry party?

Wang Sheng was stunned for a moment.

"Of course you can."

The King of East China Sea came today, and it seemed that he really just wanted to make friends with him.

but

Wang Sheng couldn't adapt to the special visit with such a 'simple' purpose.

"Liu Yong."

"My subordinate is here."

Since King Donghai has nothing to do, Wang Sheng will find something for him to do.

"Can Cai Kan be recruited?"

Cai Kan?

Liu Yong was stunned for a moment and immediately knew who Wang Sheng was referring to.

Mention Cai Kan in front of the King of East China Sea

Liu Yong just pondered for a moment and immediately replied, "That guy was recruited last night. It's just that the master was too busy, so he didn't inform the master."

Wang Sheng was not surprised by this result.

Cai Gan's words were righteous, but once the punishment was imposed, he probably explained everything.

"Who is this Cai Kan?"

At this time, Wang Sheng mentioned a man named Cai Kan, which made the King of Donghai stunned for a moment, and then he became somewhat curious.

"Then Cai Kan is the son of the official in charge of the Duke's office in the state of Lu. I thought he was a filial son and wanted me to help him, but he came to assassinate me. That's why I had him tortured. I had to ask for his instructions.

Who is his person?"

"oh?"

Sima Yue looked thoughtful.

"It seems that there are many people who are jealous of Xiandi, and they actually want to get rid of Xiandi. I wonder if Xiandi knows who is behind the scenes?"

Wang Sheng smiled softly and said, "I have a slight guess, but I can't say for sure who it is. If Brother Yuan Chao doesn't dislike it, I can go with him to meet that person. There may be unexpected results."

King Donghai stood up and said with a smile, "If there is such a thing, I can go and take a look."

"Your Majesty, this"

He Lun seemed to have something to say.

"If it's not suitable, then Brother Yuan Chao can go back home first." Wang Sheng added a sentence later.

"Hahaha!"

King Donghai laughed twice and said, "What's inappropriate about this?"

Sima Yuedu said this, and He Lun naturally lowered his head.

Wang Sheng led the way, and Sima Yue followed Wang Sheng. After walking for about two quarters of an hour, a somewhat secluded small courtyard appeared.

There are two guards guarding the entrance to the courtyard.

When you walk into the small courtyard, you will find that there is actually a whole other world inside.

Inside the courtyard, there is a hole dug by someone.

The entrance to the cave is dim, but there is an oil lamp flickering on the side, barely providing some dim light.

Especially now at night, this feeling of darkness is even more obvious.

"I didn't expect there to be a private prison in Jingu Garden."

"It was built by Shi Chong, I just use it for casual use."

Of course, private prisons are not allowed, but who doesn’t have a private prison?

Sima Yue also had a private prison.

Things like this that seem not allowed are actually allowed by default for most people of their status.

Wang Sheng walked in front, while Sima Yue followed slowly behind Wang Sheng.

This private prison was created by digging out the ground.

It's not actually big, but it's definitely not small either.

There are ten cells inside, and the underground is dull. However, the people who built the dungeon are also good at it, and they also solved the ventilation problem. Otherwise, this man would probably be suffocated to death within a short time of staying underground.

But even if I am not suffocated to death, the feeling underground is very heavy.

It was as if there was a stone pressing on my heart.

Moreover, there was a strong smell inside the small prison.

As soon as Wang Sheng came out, his brows furrowed.

Although Sima Yue was used to living a life of fine clothing and fine food, he had never seen such a scene before.

In the innermost room of the prison, Cai Kan was tied to a wooden frame, covered in blood.

Zhao Meng was drinking wine and eating meat boredly on the side.

Such a scene, such a taste, Zhao Meng can still eat wine and meat, he is really a god!

"Lord."

Seeing Wang Sheng coming, Zhao Meng quickly bowed to Wang Sheng.

"Is he ready?"

Zhao Meng nodded.

"I've recruited you a long time ago."

As he said that, Zhao Meng looked over, and Cai Kan, who was originally sleeping and pretending to be dead, suddenly raised his head.

Although he was covered in blood, he seemed to be in good spirits.

"Speaking of which, who sent you to kill me?"

"I"

Cai Kan hesitated for a while, and Zhao Meng immediately glared at him.

"If you don't tell me now, sir, I still have many punishments that I haven't used yet."

This guy, he did it before he even used up his punishment. Zhao Meng was also very boring.

They also played many tricks with Cai Kan, and the blood on his body was also caused later.

"It's Ouyang Jian!"

Ouyang Jian?

Wang Sheng was stunned for a moment.

"Didn't he go back to his hometown?"

"He sent someone to write it in handwriting with me."

"hehe."

Wang Sheng sneered and said, "I'm afraid you still have to suffer some punishment before you can speak obediently."

Sweat was pouring from Cai Kan's forehead.

"It's King Zhao!"

Cai Kan, let’s talk again.

"King Zhao?"

possible.

But there was a sneer on Wang Sheng's lips.

Even Zhao Meng's expression changed.

What kind of labor-management Ouyang Jian did this guy use to fool him before?

"Zhao Meng, give him ten punishments, but let him breathe and don't kill him."

"promise!"

Zhao Meng responded solemnly, with murderous intent in his words.

Let him be embarrassed in front of his lord.

Good guy!

See if I can't be pinched to death!

After Wang Sheng finished speaking, he slowly left the cell and quickly walked out of the prison.

Sima Yue followed Wang Sheng, but there was a look of confusion on his face.

"Brother, why don't you ask?"

"I vaguely know who it is, wait a moment, I just need to confirm it."

"Who is it?"

Sima Yue had a look of curiosity on his face.

"I'm afraid he's a relative of brother Yuan Chao!"
