    The reception banquet was still held in Guyi Garden. When Jiang Mo and the others arrived, most of the guests had already arrived and were seated.

The emperor sat at the top, and the lower seat was empty, obviously reserved for Jiang Mo. Master Du and Mrs. Du, as well as the Chen family and their sons, were sitting on the platform below, closest to the emperor.

When Zhao Hong saw Jiang Mo coming, he asked Fang Cheng to come over and lead him to his seat.

At the reception banquet, Zhao Hong generously rewarded the meritorious officials of this campaign, the most important of which were the father and son Chen Ji and Chen Yu, and Jiang Mo's status also rose with the tide. Not only the concubines in the harem, but also the ministers of the previous dynasty also looked at this newly promoted noble minister with special eyes.

This noble minister is good-looking, and had a friendship with the emperor when he was a child. Now he has entered the palace and is deeply favored by the emperor. He is of a high family background. Not only does he have a prime minister father, but he also has the support of Marquis Dingguo and General Hussar. , it can be said that no one in the harem can be more popular than him.

It's a pity that he is a twin who is not easy to conceive, otherwise the position of the mother of this country would be in his pocket.

Everyone had different thoughts underneath, but Jiang Mo didn't know what these courtiers were thinking, or if he knew it, he wouldn't care and just concentrated on eating the food in front of him.

He noticed that today was the same as last time, there was a dish of braised fish belly with three delicacies, and the taste was still as delicious and tender. It was really delicious, but it was a pity that the portion was too small, and it was gone in two or three bites.

At this moment, Meng Jiao suddenly handed two more plates of fish belly to him and whispered: "Master, the emperor saw that you like to eat these, so he specially ordered them to be prepared for you."

Jiang Mo was stunned. Subconsciously, she raised her head and looked in the direction of Zhao Hong, and saw that he was also looking at her, as if he was looking forward to seeing his reaction.

When Zhao Hong saw him looking over, he subconsciously smiled at him. Then, perhaps feeling that this was damaging to the majesty of the emperor, he straightened his face again and continued to eat the food in front of him seriously.

Jiang Mo pursed his lips, and couldn't help but smile a little. He always felt that such an emperor was a bit cute.

After the reception banquet, the emperor was busy settling the soldiers and implementing the rewards one by one. Therefore, he was very busy and did not enter the harem for several days. When he finally got some free time, the first person he wanted to see was undoubtedly Jiang Mo again.

"Your Majesty, the Emperor has ordered his servants to come and pick you up. Bu Chaan is already waiting outside." The person who came to pick him up was Fang Cheng, the chief eunuch who specially served the Emperor.

When he came, Jiang Mo had actually fallen asleep, but of course he had no choice but to get up if the emperor wanted to see him. Zuo Dong and the others helped Jiang Mo change his clothes, and then followed Fang Cheng.

Fortunately, there was a chariot, so he didn't need to walk there. He could take the opportunity to wake up on the chariot, so as not to lose his etiquette in front of the emperor.

As they walked, Jiang Mo realized that they were going in the wrong direction. They didn't seem to be heading towards the emperor's palace.

"Manager Fang, where are you going?" Jiang Mo couldn't help but ask.

Fang Cheng said with a smile: "Please be patient, your Majesty, we will be there in a moment."

Not long after, the chariot entered the Imperial Garden and headed straight towards the lake. If Zhang Qian was not sure that Zhang Qian was dead and Fang Cheng was not controlled by the puppet charm, Jiang Mo might have thought that Fang Cheng had deliberately tricked him out and wanted to assassinate him.

It was late at night, and there was no one around the lake in the Royal Garden. Except for the moonlight and the dim lanterns in the hands of the palace attendants, there was almost no light at all, which was really a bit scary.

"Manager Fang..." Jiang Mo was about to speak, but the carriage stopped.

"Your Majesty, please follow me."

Jiang Mo glanced at the guards and palace people around him, finally composed himself, and followed Fang Cheng into the Huxin Pavilion.

However, when he entered the pavilion in the middle of the lake with his front feet, he saw a little fluorescent light around him. Large fireflies appeared out of nowhere and danced around him in the moonlight.

This picture was so beautiful that Jiang Mo was stunned for a moment.

"Today is your birthday." Zhao Hong's magnetic voice suddenly sounded in his ears, "There is no rule in the palace to celebrate the birthday of a concubine, so I will celebrate it for you quietly."

Jiang Mo turned around and saw Zhao Hong in regular clothes. , holding a lotus lantern in his hand and walked out from behind the pillar, but Fang Cheng and the palace people disappeared without knowing when.

"I heard from Mr. Du that there is a folk saying that if you light a lantern with your own hands and put it into the lake, a wish will come true." Zhao Hong said, passing the lotus lantern in his hand in his direction, "Would you like to try it? "

Seeing Jiang Mo dazed and silent, Zhao Hong took out a Kongming lantern like a magic trick, "If you don't like placing lanterns by the lake, you can try this flying lantern."

He held up the two lanterns in his hands in a flattering manner. He held up a lamp and asked in a low voice: "Want to try it?"

Jiang Mo looked at the nervous look on Zhao Hong's face in front of him. He was not old, his facial features were still a little childish, and his black pupils were extremely reflected by the firelight. Bright. At this time, how could Zhao Hong still be the emperor who surpassed tens of millions of people? He's just a young boy who is anxious to make his sweetheart happy.

Jiang Mo could hardly control the expression and enthusiasm on his face. He burst into laughter all of a sudden and felt a sour feeling in his heart.

"Well, give it a try." Jiang Mo reached out and took the Kongming Lantern, and the corners of his mouth could not help but raise slightly.

When Zhao Hong saw him smiling, his eyebrows softened.

The two of them lit Kongming lanterns and put on lotus lanterns together, like two children, playing and strolling in the imperial garden. After playing for half an hour, they both sweated slightly on their foreheads.

Jiang Mo said: "Why did the emperor suddenly want to celebrate my birthday?"

Zhao Hong turned his eyes slightly, "I heard that you haven't gone out much recently. You are bored in the palace all the time. I'm afraid you are not in a good mood."

Jiang Mo took a sip. Lip, he really hasn't been interested in anything recently because he was waiting for the opportunity to leave, but he couldn't wait for the right time. I didn't expect that the emperor would notice this when he was busy with government affairs. .

"Little I can't remember what happened at that time, but I know how much effort you put in to enter the palace. "Zhao Hong said, suddenly holding his hands, "I understand your intentions, and I will never let you down in this life. "


Your Majesty...? " "When Jiang Mo heard this, his eyes widened in surprise.

"Are you willing to be my Zitong? "Zhao Hong held his hand tighter and looked over with piercing eyes.

Jiang Mo felt that his palms were frighteningly hot, and his heart was beating uncontrollably. He wanted to say something uncomfortably What, but after opening his mouth, he still couldn't say no.

He thought that he might have been bent.

...

In the year of Ziwu, Emperor Wen of Zhou abdicated and traveled around the world with his queen.

Emperor Wen of Zhou, Zhao Hong, worked diligently and loved the people throughout his life, creating During the prosperous period of the Great Zhou Dynasty, the love story between him and Queen Du Yunyi was also widely circulated among the people.

The emperor and the queen were childhood sweethearts, but later the emperor was sent to the mountains to learn from his apprentices, and the queen suddenly gained weight and was trapped in the In the family, it was not until the emperor ascended the throne that the queen practiced martial arts diligently every day and worked hard to lose weight in order to participate in the draft, and finally succeeded in being selected. After the

emperor and empress reunited, they were very affectionate. For the sake of the empress, the emperor sent all the concubines in the harem out of the palace. Because these beautiful ladies had not been favored and were not too old, under the emperor's instruction, the Ministry of Rites found another marriage for them. The

Queen Mother was not willing at first, but during a hunt, Regardless of the danger, the queen blocked the assassin for the emperor and almost lost her life. The queen finally accepted the male queen.

In the expectation of everyone, two years later, the queen gave birth to a smart little prince. When he was five years old, he was named a prince and received the emperor's full guidance.

Two generations of wise kings led to a prosperous era.

It was not until the emperor died that the so-called opportunity that Jiang Mo had been waiting for finally arrived.

[Jiang Mo: 008, leaving this world .]

[System: Yes.]

Jiang Mo's spiritual body was floating in the system space. Looking at his points balance, he couldn't help but grimace. After completing the mission, he still chose to stay in this world for fifty years. This does not require consuming points, but during his stay, in order to continue living with peace of mind, he exchanged for a physical strengthening agent, a resurrecting pill, and a pregnancy pill. Almost half of the points earned from completing the mission were consumed. How could he not feel distressed by this?

But he couldn't help it. The Son of Luck cared about him so much. If he left suddenly, I'm afraid the Son of Destiny would have an emotional breakdown, which would be bad if it caused the small world to collapse, right?

Jiang Mo found a reason for himself and ignored the annoying voice in his heart that said, "You have bent, you have bent, you have bent", and finally felt less lost.

[System: Master, do you want to continue with the next mission?]

[Jiang Mo: Well, let's continue.]

*******

Jiang Mo woke up with a splitting headache. He was full of alcohol and was lying on the sofa in a KTV box with something still in his arms. Holding an equally drunk woman in his arms.

The deafening music resounded throughout the box. Jiang Mo raised his eyes and saw only shadowy figures standing, sitting, or overlapping in one place, making ambiguous sounds.

He His hands and feet were weak, and his brain was in chaos under the influence of alcohol. His body obviously died of alcohol poisoning, but the irony was that with so many people around him, no one noticed anything strange about him.

[Jiang Mo :008, get rid of the alcohol in my body.]

[System: Yes, 10 points will be deducted.]

Soon, Jiang Mo felt relaxed all over and his head was no longer groggy.

[System: Master, do you want to start receiving world line and mission target information? ]

[Jiang Mo: Yes. 】

Soon, information about this world was quickly introduced into his mind.

This is a novel world. The son of luck he wants to protect is a big jeweler in this world. He made his fortune from scratch by gambling on stones. He has a very good business vision. With the help of a nobleman, he quickly sold his fortune. The jewelry company grew and became one of the leading wealthy businessmen. Because of his experience in the orphanage as a child, while making money, he also did not forget to do charity and helped many children who had the same rough fate as him.

However, the appearance of strangers in time and space broke all this beauty.

This time traveler has the ability to see through the stone and can easily see through the inside of the stone. Moreover, he is also familiar with the plot. He has cut off the beard of the son of luck many times when he gambled on the stone. As a result, he won the favor of the noble man who was originally the son of luck. He even married his daughter to him.

Not only did the time traveler completely take away everything that should have belonged to the Son of Destiny, but he also targeted him everywhere. In order to fear that he would make a comeback, he even sent people to break his legs, leaving the Son of Destiny to die in poverty and misery.
