Chapter 73: The Ruler, Mo Ching

After school, Shen Yue walked to Shen Miao and said with a smile, “Today, Ms. Yi invited me to go to the mansion with my big sister, so I won’t go back with you. Fifth sister, you then go back first.”

Yi Peilan and Shen Yue two people naturally close to them, give them an invitation but only ignored Shen Miao, family routine. Hearing this, Shen Miao did not have much of a reaction, and only responded.

These days Shen family treat Shen Miao’s attitude is extremely warm, want to know what is bound to play again. Shen Miao also lazy with them, now the priority, naturally not these trivial things.

On the carriage going back, it had to pass by one of the busiest streets in Dingjing City. Gu Yu said, “Ahead is Gui Hua Fang, doesn’t the girl like the shortcake in it the most, slave girl go buy some back.”

“Go on.” Shen Miao smiled.

After Gu Yu got off the carriage, Jing Jing lifted the curtain and looked out, her eyes passed by a “eek”. Shen Miao followed her gaze over, only to see the carriage parked next to the Gui Hua Fang, is a pawnshop, at the moment surrounded by many people, seems to be arguing about something.

And the pawnshop fellow seems to be a little impatient, voice high even Shen Miao can hear: “Said ten taels of silver, love to sell or not! A sword is just a sword, sir don’t make it difficult for us people.”

“Seems like it didn’t work out with the shopkeeper.” Sting said.

Shen Miao also see out, pawnshop business, naturally will be the price will be low, and obviously, this is to that come to pawn things for the people, is unacceptable price, but not willing to leave, is why this kind of stalemate.

“There is nothing to see.” See Shen Miao averted his gaze, Jing hibing then put down the carriage curtain again. A few moments later, Gu Yu holding two large paper bags back, Jing Jing pulled open the curtain to let her in, pull open the curtain moment, Shen Miao’s eyes fell outside the carriage, only to see that just that argued with the pawnshop fellows turned out of the crowd, holding a sword, about the final failed to make this business, the look looks a little disheveled.

After Gu Yu got on the carriage, she was about to close the curtain of the carriage, but was stopped by Shen Miao, who stared carefully at the person holding the sword, a young man who looked like he was wearing ordinary clothes, and his looks were even more mediocre. Seeing her own girl staring closely at this strange man, Gu Yu and Jing Jing are both a bit puzzled.

Shen Miao frowned, how did this person look so familiar?

That young man shook his head, sighed, looked deeply at the sword in his arms, clenched his teeth, turned his head and walked towards that pawnshop again, as if he was finally going to make up his mind to make that not too satisfying business.

“Gu Yu!” The moment he turned around, Shen Miao suddenly shouted out, “Go down there and stop him, just tell him that sword of his, I want it!”

“Girl ……” Sting and Gu Yu looked at her with surprise, really don’t know why Shen Miao acted like this?

“Hurry!” Shen Miao said in a cold voice.

Seeing her serious look, Gu Yu didn’t dare to ask more questions and immediately jumped out of the car and walked towards the young man in cloth.

The cloth-clothed young man was just taking a step out when he heard someone speak from behind him, “Your Excellency, stay back.”

When he turned around, he saw a woman dressed like a maidservant smiling at him, saying, “Is the gentleman going to the pawnshop to pawn the sword in his hand?”

The young man was stunned, then without hiding it, he said, “Not bad.”

The woman continued, “As it happens, my girl wants this sword in your hand, does the gentleman have the will to make this deal?”

The young man glanced at the other party and saw that the woman’s expression did not seem to be fake, but still shook his head and said, “This sword of mine is not an exquisite style, but it is better in terms of practicality. If your young lady wants it, it is better to go to the weapon store to build one.” In his heart, he was also surprised, where would ordinary girls be interested in these swords, it is just to look at the fun. Unfortunately, his sword is too sharp, if he is not careful to hurt himself, it will not be good.

Gu Yu’s expression eased slightly, and in his heart, he also sighed in admiration. In front of her, this person is clearly in urgent need of silver, but even for the other party, it seems to be a person with an open heart. Before Shen Miao inexplicably want to buy this person’s sword, she was still a little worried, now it seems that at least the other party is not a bad person.

Thinking about this, Gu Yu’s face became a little softer as she said, “My girl is sincere in wanting to make this business with you. You might as well take a step to talk.”

The other party probably didn’t expect Gu Yu to be this stubborn, and after glancing at the pawnshop, he nodded helplessly, “Alright.”

When he arrived at an unoccupied alley on the neighboring side, he only saw a carriage parked in the alley, Gu Yu arrived at the carriage’s heel and softly said, “Miss, he’s here.”

The young man walked to the carriage, hesitated for a moment, and finally clasped his fists, “This young lady, my sword is indeed not suitable for women to use, it is too heavy and too sharp, and it is easy to injure itself, so ……”

“What is your name?” Before the words fell, a woman’s voice was heard coming from the carriage. This voice sounded as if it was not very old, but it had an indescribable flavor, as if it had experienced the sinking and floating of a person in a high position, and for a moment it made it impossible to feel the age of one of the people.

“My name is Mo Qing.” After hesitating for a split second, the young man clasped his fists.

After these words, there was no response for a long time. Just as the young man named Mo Qing and Gu Yu were both a bit puzzled, the woman’s voice came from inside again, “This sword of yours, I am not interested in it. Broken iron has no meaning to me, either.”

Upon hearing this, a flash of anger surfaced on Mo Qing’s face as he said, “Miss is not teasing Mo Qing, although this sword is of average quality, it was forged by a famous sword maker and has accompanied me for many years. If Miss called me over just to insult me, I’m sorry I won’t accompany you.”

After saying this, he turned around and was about to leave, but just as he lifted his foot, he heard a sigh coming from the carriage, which was light and airy, but seemed to contain inexplicable emotions, causing one’s heart to clench for no reason.

“Mo Qing, you’re short of silver, aren’t you.” The man in the carriage said.

Mo Qing froze, not knowing why, when the other party called his name, a strange feeling suddenly rose in his heart. It was as if that feeling was very familiar, yet somewhat inexplicable. However, the moment he heard the other party speak, his footsteps involuntarily stopped, as if he couldn’t refuse every word the other party said.

“Your sword, indeed, is not worth much to me, but, your swordsmanship is worth a hundred, a thousand gold.”

Mo Qing was stunned and shook his head, “Miss is too kind, I am just an ordinary person.” In his heart, he was surprised, how did this person know that he was superb with the sword.

“It’s hard to beat a hero for a penny, even the precious sword that has accompanied you for many years has to be sold. Such a day really fails your sword skills.” The curtain of the carriage was suddenly lifted, and a purple-clothed girl came out from the inside.

Her appearance was childish and clean, yet there was a rare nobility and majesty between her brows.

“Mo Qing, would you be willing to sell your full body of martial arts to my General Shen family?”

She asked with a smile, but there was a faint delight in her gaze like meeting an old friend.

The former life of the guard commander Mo Prime, really …… don t come back well.
