Chapter 285: The Emperor's New Clothes!
In the magnificent castle, Tom Mu slowly opened his eyes.
Um……
An unfamiliar ceiling.
Tang Mu rolled over and got out of a large bed.Turned up and down.
"Your Majesty, let us change your clothes."
Tom just got out of bed.
Two maids stepped in outside, ready to change Tom Mu's clothes according to the previous procedure.
As soon as they entered the room and saw the cat Tom Mu, these maids were so frightened that their eyes widened.
They didn't expect it either.
Just one night passed.
The old emperor who was originally fat turned into a cat.
Can be biased.
The memories in their own minds told them that the cat in front of them was their emperor.
I walked forward very confused.
The two looked at Tang Mu, and even though they were extremely confused, they still put on new gorgeous clothes for Tang Mu.
Looking at myself in the full-length mirror, dressed in fine clothes and wearing a crown.
Tom Mu nodded with satisfaction.
Obviously, the system's world identity function is already taking effect.
As a cat, it has replaced the emperor's identity.
Even though these people may feel very awkward, there is no doubt about their identity.
This was the first time that Tang Mu became emperor.
It was also my first time to come to a place similar to the European Middle Ages.
It is quite interested in the legendary castle.
It's a good time to take this opportunity to have a good visit.
"Meow meow meow meow!"
Tom Mu waved his paw.
The two maids quickly retreated.
An old minister hurried over according to Tom Mu's order and served Tom Mu to patrol the castle.
Accompanying Tang Mu in moving, in addition to the veteran, there were also many fully armed knights.
Such grandeur made Tang Mu quite satisfied.
It's just a pity.
The castles in the fairy tale world are indeed very different from the castles in reality.
The castles in the fairy tale world pay more attention to magnificence and comfort, and do not consider too many city defense issues.
The castle in the middle world is a real fortress.
Not only is the internal living environment very poor, the lighting is also poor, and many places are extremely cramped.
However, after all, Tang Mu didn't really want to be the emperor here.
The practicality of the castle is dispensable.
Looking at the Cat Emperor who was looking around, the veteran asked curiously: "Your Majesty, it's been an hour. Aren't you going to change into new clothes today?"
This veteran minister has been with the emperor for a very long time and is already familiar with the emperor's habits.
It's just that today's emperor seems a little strange to him.
Not only has she become a cat, but she has also abandoned her habit of wearing new clothes.
If it were normal, it would have to change into a new set of clothes every hour.
Tang Mu waved his paws indifferently.
It's too lazy to change.
Changing so many clothes every day is tiring and annoying.
"That……"
The veteran paused for a while and asked tentatively: "Do you want to work today?"
Tom Mu raised his paw to hold the crown on his head, thought about it for a moment, and then nodded in agreement.
Seeing that the emperor finally wanted to go to work, the old minister was very pleased and quickly led Tang Mu to the conference room.
Looking at the tall throne at the end of the red carpet, Tang Mu, with his small body, had to climb up before he could turn over and sit down.
"Your Majesty the Emperor, these are the documents that need to be processed recently."
Looking at Tang Mu on the throne, the old minister took out a large stack of documents.
Tom Mu immediately felt dizzy after seeing this.
No wonder the former emperor kept changing his clothes every day and had so many duties.
But think about it.
Many people can't even manage dozens of people in a company.
What's more, as an emperor, you have to manage the entire country.
Although in Europe, which is a city-state system, there are kingdoms all over the place. Each city has a king, and the princes and princesses are also wholesale.
But no matter what, the management of a city is no small matter.
This is the world of fairy tales.
Otherwise, if he managed the country like the previous emperor, his kingdom would have been destroyed long ago.
The old minister reported to Tang Mu with a large stack of documents in his hand.
Tang Mu sat on the throne a little bored, holding his chin in one hand, and responded to the documents based on his own knowledge.
"The knights from the Western Knights came to report. They said they saw traces of the evil dragon. They suspected that the evil dragon was coming back and asked us to strengthen our vigilance."
After Tang Mu listened to a lot of daily reports, a document finally came that interested him.
"Evil dragon?"
Tom sat up straight.
"Yes, Your Majesty, a fire-breathing dragon. It just plundered a principality in the north and stole their princess."
The veteran lowered his head and answered truthfully.
"Ugh!"
This made Tang Mu arouse a lot of interest.
In fairy tales, the very classic dragon and princess finally appear.
The king, the dragon, the princess, gold and silver jewelry and the warrior who slayed the dragon.
This is a series of very classic elements.
What just made Tom Mu a little confused.
In "The Emperor's New Clothes", there seems to be no dragon element.
Is it possible that the old emperor didn't hear the news because he was away from work?
Or is it because the magic book was damaged that there were some differences in the story?
But that doesn't matter anymore.
Anyway, Tom Mu just needs to complete the story according to his own ideas.
"Oh! By the way, Your Majesty, there is another thing that should be of great interest to you."
The topic of evil dragons was just mentioned casually, and the veteran finally began to enter.formal topic.
"Last night, two foreign weavers came to the castle. They said that they could weave the most beautiful cloth that no one could imagine."
"I think you will like it very much."
After saying this, the veteran always felt a strange sense of separation.
In his memory, it seemed that similar dialogue had been repeated many times.
It's just that the old emperor with a big belly is no longer on the throne, so the old minister can't help but act a little.
"Bring it to see."
Tom Mu also knew to promote the plot.
So he raised his chin and pretended to be proud.
Under Tom Mu's order, a tall, thin and a short, fat weaver walked in slowly.
They lowered their heads, but their eyes were subconsciously looking at the gorgeous decorations around them.
Whenever they see those colorful jewelry, the eyes of the two weavers will reveal greed.
Under the leadership of the guards, the two stopped five meters away from Tom Mu.
Following the cough from the veteran next to them, the two finally reacted and quickly saluted Tang Mu according to etiquette!
"Dear His Majesty the Emperor, nice to see you!"
The two said, raising their heads.
The moment they saw Tang Mu, they were all frightened!
"Oh my god! Cat!"
"The emperor is a cat!"
"Bold!"
"Discourteous!"
At the same time, the two weavers shouted impolitely.
The guard behind him immediately took two steps forward and kicked the two weavers to the ground!
The weavers who fell to the ground felt the pain and woke up instantly.
He quickly knelt on the ground and kowtowed to Tang Mu.
"I'm very sorry! Your Majesty is really too powerful. The two of us have never seen such a perfect existence, so we lost our control!"
The tall and thin weaver reacted quickly and apologized quickly.
The short and fat weaver next to him fell to the ground like a tortoise that had rolled out of its shell. He rolled over for a long time before struggling.
"I heard that you can weave beautiful cloth?"
Tang Mu didn't care about the reactions of the two liars below and asked.
"Yes, Your Majesty!"
The short, fat weaver patted his chest, looking confident.
The tall and thin weaver next to him also continued: "Not only can we weave the most beautiful cloth in the world, this cloth also has very wonderful uses."
After hearing what the two people said, even the ministers on the side became somewhat interested.
Looking at the reactions of the people around them, the two weavers looked at each other, smiled tacitly at each other, and continued:
"Our cloth is lighter than a cicada's wing. It feels like air when worn on the body. Not only that, even those incompetent and stupid people cannot see this piece of clothing."
"Wow!"
Tang Mu exclaimed.
Seeing this, the two weavers suddenly felt that their deception was really solid, just when they wanted to continue talking.
But Tang Mu, who was on the throne, spoke first: "Can the cloth you weave defeat the evil dragon?"
"ah?"
"ah?"
The two weavers were stunned for a moment.
What kind of development is this?
This is not how the script develops!
What is the situation with the evil dragon?
Where did the evil dragon come from?
When Tang Mu saw the confused expressions of the two people below, he knew that they didn't know the news about the evil dragon's coming.
Then he continued: "I want a cloth that is invisible to fools and can give people great power."
After hearing what Tang Mu said, the two weavers looked at each other, feeling a little troubled.
This problem was something they had never thought of before.
But after looking at the dazzling jewelry around them, blinded by greed, the two of them still agreed.
"No problem! Absolutely no problem!"
The two men made a solemn promise.
However, the tall and thin weaver said again: "But we need two looms, and a large amount of raw silk, gold and jewelry."
"You know, of course, a beautiful piece of cloth like this needs something absolutely beautiful to be woven into."
Tom Mu waved his paws indifferently.
Seeing this, the veteran minister on the side immediately answered: "No problem, come with me. I will give you what you need. I hope you will not disappoint His Majesty."
"of course not!"
The two weavers expressed quickly.
According to the original plot of the fairy tale.
By this time, the emperor had completely fallen into the trap of the two weavers.
They will continuously ask for treasures from the emperor.
The emperor would also meet their conditions for the magical cloth.
After getting the jewelry, the two weavers would put the jewelry into their pockets.
The main theme is a white wolf with empty gloves.
Although at this time, Tang Mu also gave the jewelry to the two weavers.
But Tom had his own ideas.
In the castle, two weavers have been busy working in front of the loom.
But the loom was empty, nothing could be seen.
Some guards saw this scene.
But thinking about the magic of this piece of cloth, stupid people cannot see it.
They don't want others to know their stupidity, so they pretend to be able to see it and don't hesitate to praise it.
The old minister also heard the rumors in the castle and curiously stepped forward to check.After arriving at the room where the two weavers were busy, the old minister immediately saw the empty loom.
The two weavers were busy on the loom in a serious manner.
But the old minister couldn't see anything!
"This is how the same thing?"
The veteran thought, his eyes widened.
He saw nothing.
But he didn't dare to say this.
When the two swindlers saw Lao Zeng coming, they quickly asked him to come closer and asked him: "Are the grains of this cloth very beautiful? Are the colors very beautiful?"
Oh my God!
The old minister saw nothing.
The two looms were indeed empty.
But seeing the seriousness of the two weavers, the veteran began to doubt himself.
Could it be that I am a stupid person?
Am I an incompetent person?
no!
I'm definitely not!
I must never let people know that I can't see the fabric!
Just when the old minister was thinking in his heart.
The tall and thin weaver on the side asked tentatively: "Do you have any other opinions about this cloth?"
"No! No objection! It's so beautiful! It's so beautiful!"
The old minister took out his old glasses and put them on, and looked closely at the loom: "What a wonderful pattern, what a beautiful color. Yes, I will report it to Your Majesty and say that I am very satisfied with this cloth."
"We are really happy that you can say that!"
The two weavers were very proud. They described these rare colors and patterns and added some nouns.
The old minister listened carefully so that he could recite it when he returned to the emperor. In fact, that's what he did.
Just before the old minister left.
The two greedy swindlers asked the old minister for a lot of money, more raw silk and gold.
They said these were needed for weaving.
In fact, they just want to make a fortune.
Not a single thread will be put on the loom.
Tom Mu is enjoying the servant service and delicious afternoon tea in the castle.
At this time, the minister who went to see the cloth also came back.
After meeting Tom Mu, he told him the appearance of the cloth he "saw".
The matter was brought up again that the two weavers wanted more money.
Tom Mu put down the milk in his hand and jumped down from the luxurious chair.
Watching the veteran raise his chin.
The old minister instantly understood what Tang Mu meant and began to lead the way, leading Tang Mu to the place where the two weavers were working.
Haven't entered the house yet.
Judging from the outside, they are indeed working in full swing.
The sound of the loom keeps ringing.
When the guards at the door saw the Cat Emperor approaching, they immediately stood at attention and saluted.
Tom Mu strode into the room.
When the two weavers saw that the emperor was coming, their work became faster.
I want to show that I am working very hard.
It's just that Tom Mu is not a fool in this world.
There is nothing wrong with them.
These two liars can only live in fairy tales.
Use this exaggerated technique to satirize something through the story.
If it were in the real world.
With the deception techniques these two scammers use, they can't even deceive elementary school students.
"Your Majesty! Are you here to check out the new cloth?"
The two weavers worked selflessly for a while, and then pretended to have just discovered Tom Mu, and quickly bowed to Tom Mu.
Tom nodded.
Seeing this, the tall and thin weaver quickly led Tom to the loom, pointed at the loom in front of him, and said: "Your Majesty, look, what a perfect cloth!"
"Yes! Yes, the color is also extremely bright!"
The short and fat weaver next to him also nodded repeatedly.
Tom Mu raised his hand and touched his chin, looking at the empty loom in front of him and lost in thought.
The two weavers stood aside, suddenly feeling a little nervous.
So far, their deception is going smoothly.
But the cat in front of them always gave them a very bad feeling.
If something goes wrong in their plan, it will probably happen with the Cat Emperor.
"Hmm~"
Some sounds came from Tom Mu's throat.
Nearly scared the two liars to death.
But Tang Mu said, "No, I'm not satisfied! I want it to be redone in blue!"
"What?!"
Tom Mu's reaction surprised the two of them.
In their imagination, Tom Mu should pretend to have seen it even though he didn't see it, just to save face, and boast like other people.
What the hell is this really a suggestion? !
The two weavers were still stunned, but Tang Mu's cold voice came over: "I'll give you one night."
With that said, Tom Mu turned and left.
The veteran looked at Tang Mu's leaving figure with admiration in his eyes.
As expected of our emperor.
As expected, it can see the cloth that we cannot see.
You can even make comments.
Seeing that Tang Mu had left, the veteran turned to look at the two dumbfounded weavers and said seriously: "Did you hear that? Your Majesty wants the blue one!"
"Yes Yes!"
The two nodded quickly!
But after everyone left, I looked at the empty loom in front of me.
The two of them were instantly in trouble.
What is this?all?
There is obviously nothing, how can you make them blue?
At this time, the two weavers finally realized that something was wrong.
The inner fear plagued them all night.
On the second day, Tom Mu brought someone over again.
Two weavers stood aside with nervous expressions on their faces.
But they are obviously still taking chances.
I didn't take advantage of last night to weave a piece of cloth honestly.
At this time, the loom was still empty.
When Tang Mu saw this, he snorted coldly, shook his head and said: "This is not the blue color I want. I am very dissatisfied. Are you lying to me?!"
His Majesty the Emperor has spoken.
The surrounding guards immediately drew their daggers!
Amidst the clanging sound, a large number of daggers were pulled out, shining with the cold light of metal.
This time, both weavers were frightened.
The tall and thin weaver's legs were a little weak, and he was held up by the short and fat weaver on the side to prevent him from falling.
But he actually said harshly: "Your Majesty, take a closer look! The color of this cloth is definitely good!"
Tang Mu didn't bother to talk nonsense with him, so he turned around and left.
Before leaving, he left a sentence: "Add a little more red, this is the last chance. I want to see all the jewelry I gave you on the cloth."
After saying that, he led everyone away again.
Wait until Tom Mu and everyone else leave.
The two weavers then collapsed to the ground, and the short and fat weaver among them quickly said: "Shall we really weave a piece of cloth? He said it was the last chance!"
When the tall and thin weaver heard this, he stood up suddenly, walked to the corner of the room, and opened several bags.
The gorgeous gold and silver jewelry inside immediately captivated his eyes.
"No, he must just be showing authority in front of his ministers. Our performance was flawless!"
