Chapter 28: The Peony Society

"Peony Society, is it an organization formed by those who like peony together?" Feng Shanyue literally understood the meaning of the Peony Society. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 ļ½‰ļ½Žļ½†ļ½

Master Yu shook his head, "Actually, it's just a gathering of those noble ladies in the capital. The reason why it is called the Peony Society is because the first meeting of these people was held in the Peony Pavilion in the capital. However, there is another meaning to the name, that is, these women think they are as beautiful as peonies, so they have such a name. ā€

Feng Shanyue smiled secretly, Master Yu's extremely disgusted tone really can't be hidden, it seems that she has no good impression of this peony.

"Then why do you say that the affairs of Siguan Chen's family are related to this Peony Society? Could it be that Mrs. Chen is also a member of the Peony Society?"

"Yes. Although the official position of Chief Chen is not high, Mrs. Chen has a good background, and the Xinjiang Guan family still has some weight in the court. So she is also a member of this peony society. ā€

"Even if that's the case, it doesn't prove that this matter has anything to do with the Peony Society, right?"

"Because yesterday I learned that in addition to the Chen family, there were two other families that had similar incidents, and the wives of these families were all members of the Peony Society. So I speculate that this matter is inseparable from the peony association. ā€

"Youkai again?"

Master Jade nodded, "There have been many monster incidents in the capital recently, and something seems to be wrong. I think we should start the investigation with this peony society. Didn't Yi Dayin ask you to investigate this matter?"

"Hey, Commander...... How do you know?" Feng Shanyue was surprised, she hadn't told Master Yu about it. It was impossible for Yi Dayin to tell her, after all, Master Yu was also the object of Yi Dayin's suspicion.

Master Yu smiled, "With Yi Dayin's identity and status, do you think it's possible to attach so much importance to an ordinary student of Wuzhen Academy?" I was curious why he was so good to you, so I investigated it a little. ā€

Feng Shanyue was full of black lines, she thought that she had done a good job of secrecy, but who knew that it was all seen by others, "Teacher, I'm sorry, Yi Dayin asked me to investigate privately, so I didn't tell you." ā€

Master Jade nodded, "I understand what he means, and in my capacity, this matter is also suspicious." But now my suspicion is gone, is it?"

Feng Shanyue nodded, she had indeed silently crossed out Master Yu's name on the list of suspicions, "Master, do you have any clue about this Peony Society?"

"As far as I know, this Peony Club was only mentioned by a dozen noble ladies at the beginning, and then more and more people joined, and now, even Princess Yiyang has joined in, and has become the leader of this Peony Club. ā€

"Princess Yiyang?"

"She is the wife of King Yiyang, who is the only younger brother of the monarch and is forty-two years old this year. He is modest, has no arrogance, and his favorite mantra is 'good and good', so the people in the capital privately call him the three good princes. ā€

"Poof......" Feng Shanyue couldn't help laughing, three good princes, I am still a good student!

"What are you laughing at?" Master Yu glared at her, "King Yiyang is a prince, and he can't make mistakes." If someone else sees it, they will punish you. ā€

Feng Shanyue stuck out her tongue, "I'm sorry, I was wrong." I just couldn't hold back for a while. This prince has such a good personality, then his princess must also have a good personality. ā€

"Yes, Princess Yiyang loves to laugh and is polite to people, even to the people in the house. In short, the two of them have a good reputation in the capital, and they also have a good relationship with many ministers. ā€

It is said that the king of Yiyang had the right to fight for the succession to the throne of the kingdom, but he gave it up himself, saying that he was more suitable to live the life of an idle prince. The monarch felt guilty in his heart, so he was very kind to King Yiyang and often summoned him to the palace to accompany him. ā€

Listening to Master Yu's description, Feng Shanyue's mind was a chubby couple who smiled like Maitreya Buddha, but as a prince with the right to inherit the throne, was he really so willing to be a vassal? Feng Shanyue silently put a question mark in her heart.

"If you want to investigate the Peony Society, I can help you. Master Jade said suddenly.

"Really?" Feng Shanyue was overjoyed, she was worried that she didn't know how to approach this Peony Society.

"Of course it's true. Although I am not from the Peony Society, my cousin-in-law is, and I can ask him to take us to participate. ā€

"We, the division commander, are we going too?"

"Of course, the Chen family's affairs are not over yet, then Mrs. Chen dares to use me to help her get rid of dissidents, and I must expose her true colors. Master Yu suddenly lowered his voice and muttered, "The most important thing is that if I investigate this matter clearly, he won't have to worry about this side and can concentrate on training." ā€

Feng Shanyue didn't hear the second half clearly, and couldn't help but pluck out her ears, "Commander, who are you talking about?"

Master Yu glared at her, "Children, don't worry about adults! hurry up and go back and prepare, it's the beginning of the month, and the Peony Society is going to gather again." ā€

"Yes!" Feng Shanyue said pretending to be serious, and then said with a smile: "Commander, if you don't tell me, I know it." The one you're talking about is the Battle Hero, right?" Feng Shanyue ran away after speaking, leaving Master Yu to grit his teeth in place.

Let's talk about Zhan Hu and Ah Bao, the two hid in a big tree for a long time, and only jumped down after Master Yu left.

"Brother Zhan," Bao shouted as Zhan Hu taught, "Why are we hiding in a tree? Wasn't that woman Yueyue's division commander just now? Are you afraid of her?"

"You Brother Zhan, I'm not afraid of anyone!" Zhan Hu glared at him, and then stepped on his feet to look at Master Yu's distant back, "I just don't dare to see her!"

"Why? What bad things did you do to her?"

"Hey, you kid doesn't understand anything!" Zhan Hu patted him on the shoulder, shook his head, sighed, and took the lead to walk forward. The further he went, the clearer the delicate figure of the Jade Master became in front of him. He seemed to see the confident and proud woman biting her lip again, glaring at him fiercely, in his opinion, this was the most beautiful time for Jade Linglong.

"Linglong, when will I dare to puff up my chest and stand in front of you with dignity!"

Ah Bao followed behind him, looking at Zhan Hu shaking his head for a while, nodding for a while, being sad for a while, smirking for a while, he couldn't help but shake his head too, he really wanted to go back to Wuzhen Academy to find Feng Shanyue immediately, so that he didn't have to follow this man who was very cold before, and now he is stupid.

Three days later, Feng Shanyue received a notice from Master Yu that on the fifth day of the first month of March, the Peony Society would gather at the Floating Willow Terrace on the bank of the Feng River.

"What? Let me pretend to be a maid?"
