Nangong Mo is also very satisfied with their acquaintance. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 InfoTime is of the essence now, and she doesn't have much time to hang out with these people. Nangong Mo casually tapped on the arm of the chair and asked, "In that case, tell me, what are you doing in Beijing?" ”

One said: "A few days ago, the green forest underworld in several southern provinces received a news that someone offered a million taels of gold and killed two people. ”

Nangong Mo's eyes flashed, "Who." ”

“… Emperor Xiao Yu of the Beginning, Xiao Qianye, King of Chu. Gao Da swallowed, a little difficult to say. It's no wonder that he didn't have the guts, but the killing intent brewing in the eyes of the woman in front of him was terrifying. As if a word was wrong, he would immediately follow in the footsteps of the Lord of Huanglong Island.

Nangong Mo was thoughtful and frowned slightly. Although Zixiao Hall has withdrawn from the rivers and lakes, there are still two of them left in the news channel, if it is such a big news, how can they not know. Thinking that Nangong Mo didn't believe it, Gao Da hurriedly said: "What I said is true, and these news are extremely secretive. It is only circulated among a few big underworld and green forest prevention leaders, and our Gao family also has a status in Lingnan, so we can only know about it. It's just that... Although millions of gold are easy to get, after all, they are emperors and princes of a country, and they are not so easy to assassinate. So after everyone discussed, they released some news to the people and channels below, but they said that they were going to kill two people in Jinling, but they didn't have specific identities and names. ”

Nangong Mo said: "A million gold is not a decimal, aren't you afraid that the other party won't be able to take it out?" ”

Gao Daodao: "If it was just news, naturally there would not be so many people. It's just that the ten companies that initially received the news have each received a deposit of 20,000 taels of gold. One family received the gold but wanted to pay the bill, and two days later it was destroyed. It is said that someone paid 100,000 taels to invite Feihualou, a new killer organization in the rivers and lakes. ”

20,000 taels of gold is not a small amount for people in the rivers and lakes, and 1 million taels of gold is enough to make people crazy. Not to mention that they don't make this money, even if they return 20,000 taels, I'm afraid that these people will be reluctant. As the saying goes, people die for money, and birds die for food. Even Nangong Mo herself can be regarded as a rare rich person in Jinling City, and she can't take out a million taels of gold at once.

Nangong Mo frowned and turned his head sideways to look at Qu Lianxing.

Qu Lianxing shook her head slightly, obviously unable to guess who would have such a skill. After hesitating for a moment, Qu Lianxing said, "Could it be the Water Pavilion?" ”

Nangong Mo shook his head, "Such a rough method doesn't look like Gong Yuchen did it." Moreover, Gong Yuchen is only afraid that he is not that free now, and he is not so generous. "Gong Yuchen is busy seizing power in the Northern Yuan, even if he has a million taels of gold, he will never use it to kill Emperor Taichu and Wei Junmo, he has always known the priority of things.

"Who is the person contacting you? How do you pay if you succeed afterwards? Nangong Mo asked.

Gao Da shook his head and said: "We don't know who that person is, but that person gave a token, after killing Emperor Taichu or King Chu, as long as you leave half of the token on the spot, and then take the other half of the token to the agreed place to get the rest of the money." ”

Qu Lianxing raised her eyebrows, "The agreed place?" What if the other party breaks the contract? ”

Gao Dao, "The other party has deposited all the remaining gold into the largest money bank in South Vietnam, and anyone can find it." ”

"Good calculation." Nangong Mozan said, "Jinling is far from South Vietnam, and even if you go back and forth quickly, it will take at least more than 20 days. And the most suitable day to assassinate my father and emperor should be these two days, not to mention whether we can send people to South Vietnam to rob this batch of gold and let this business flow, even if we can, time will not be in time. ”

The three of the Gao family didn't dare to speak, and Nangong Mo asked while thinking, "What is the accent of the person who went to find you?" ”

Gao Da was stunned for a moment, and the youngest senior said: "It seems... It's official. Probably, a bit of a Jiangnan accent. It is quite different from Lingnan. ”

Nangong Mo thought that they couldn't know any more, and finally asked, "What else do you have to say?" ”

Gao Da hesitated for a moment and said: "It seems that the people who received this news are not only the people in the rivers and lakes of Great Xia, but also the surrounding countries and even some tribes, but they have not received the deposit. "Not to mention foreign countries, there are also many tribes in the border areas of Great Xia, although these tribes nominally belong to Great Xia, but they have never been in awe of the Central Plains Dynasty, and the rise and fall of the dynasty is even more important to them. If it's money, it's very likely.

Nangong Mo squinted slightly, "That is to say... All the number of killers in the Green Forest Underworld should have received this news? ”

"Even if it doesn't hit, it's not far away. At least... The places south of Lingzhou are almost the same. ”

Hearing this, the look on Qu Lianxing's face couldn't help but become a little solemn. For a long time, the forces of both Zixiao Pavilion and Water Pavilion have been near Jinling and in places to the north and west, and the generation of Lingnan and Western Guangdong has never been taken seriously. After Zixiao Hall withdrew from the rivers and lakes, most of the forces in the north and the court army were put in the past few years, and the affairs in the rivers and lakes were not much managed. The other party deliberately acted in the south, presumably because it was also the reason why he forced the eyes of Zixiao Palace. Now it seems that there is really some trouble.

"Princess, if that's the case..."Qu Lianxing frowned, "I'm afraid that I will immediately report to Your Majesty and the Prince, and Your Majesty will decide." "If there really was an assassination on the emperor's first birthday on the throne, it would be a big shame. But it is impossible to really expel all the people who are not registered in Jinling from the city, and the Taichu Emperor held a birthday banquet to show the strength of Great Xia to various countries, not to let people know how timid the Great Xia Emperor and the imperial family were and afraid of death. Say it with a smile and be generous.

Nangong Mo frowned and waved his hand, signaling to take these people down for retrial to see what else could be asked. Xingwei understood, and called a few guards to carry people out of the courtyard quickly.

Sitting under the eaves of the chair, Nangong Mo couldn't help but sigh and muttered in a low voice, "It's really troublesome." ”

Qu Lianxing looked at Nangong Mo and became a little worried, "Princess? ”

Nangong Mo sighed and said, "It's too late to do anything now, there are at least a hundred thousand outsiders in Jinling City who have entered these days." The people in the rivers and lakes are good at disguise, and there are many new people in the city, and it is not good if something happens. After thinking for a moment, Nangong Mo said: "For today's plan... There is only deterrence. I will start my father's performance, and mobilize some more people from the army still stationed outside the city to assist the soldiers and horses of the five cities to defend Gyeonggi. The rest of the people, centered on Jinling, were scattered within a radius of a hundred miles. Spread the word to me, and if nothing happens tomorrow, if something happens... None of these people want to leave Jinling alive! ”

Qu Lianxing hesitated a little, "I'm afraid this is not very good, right?" "It's definitely not good for the princess's reputation. Those sour Confucians had already opened their eyes wide and wanted to provoke the harshness of the Chu Palace, if this word spread, I was afraid that the princess would be drowned by those people's saliva. Nangong Moxiu raised his eyebrows slightly, disdainful, "What are you afraid of, can they still pounce on me and bite me?" I'll go and write an excerpt to my father, you go and inform the two generals Xue Chen first, and tell them about the matter, so that they won't be caught off guard when your father gives the order. ”

"Yes, Princess." Qu Lianxing replied respectfully, and turned around and left directly without being verbose.

Nangong Mo returned to the study and finished writing the excerpt, and the steward below told Changfeng Gongzi to ask to see him, Nangong Mo hurriedly asked people to invite him in, and at the same time ordered someone to send the excerpt to the palace immediately to Emperor Taichu.

Lin Changfeng walked in still wearing a court robe, and when he saw Nangong Mo's face, he raised his eyebrows and said, "Miss Mo, what is this?" Not in the good mood? ”

Nangong Mo rolled his eyes, picked up a book of folds in his hand and threw it to him, "If you can still be in a good mood after reading this." ”

Lin Changfeng raised his eyebrows, lowered his head and flipped through a few pages, and couldn't help twitching the corners of his mouth, "There is no good news channel, it is really a trouble." If it was placed in the past few years, even if Lingnan was not our chassis, it would not have been known until now. Nangong Mo shook his head and said: "There are pros and cons to each other, being in the court and holding a well-informed killer organization will only be guarded against by everyone, and it will be difficult to move an inch." "Even though almost everyone in the world knows that Wei Junmo was the main messenger behind the Zixiao Palace, even now Wei Junmo has never publicly admitted that he is the master of the Zixiao Palace. Some things are easy to use in the rivers and lakes, but it is counterproductive when they are put in the court.

"Besides, didn't Your Majesty find out either?" Nangong Mo said lightly: "But this is also a special situation, Your Majesty has just ascended the throne, and there are many affairs in and out of the court. If it is another two years, the other party may not be able to hide it. ”

Lin Changfeng said with a smile: "So, it is very appropriate for people to choose this time." ”

Nangong Mo squinted slightly, and his smile did not have any warmth, "So, the person behind the curtain must be someone who knows the current situation in the court and even His Majesty very well." "Moreover, it must still be someone from the Jinling Imperial City.

Lin Changfeng said: "All the useful human hands have been scattered, and there should be news back soon." However, I'm afraid it's too late. ”

Nangong Mo fumbled with the pages in his hand, nodded and said, "It's really too late, that's why the other party is so unscrupulous." By the way, you dignified household servant, what are you doing here at this time? Is Tobe okay? Changfeng Gongzi smiled: "It's really nothing, the birthday banquet has been almost prepared, and the money that should be scattered by the household department has been scattered, what else can I do." His Royal Highness the King of Chu asked me to take a look, what do you need help with here? ”

Nangong Mo raised his eyebrows and smiled: "There really is." ”

"Listen up."

Nangong Mo said: "Go and help me find out what those families have been doing in the past two days." ”

Lin Changfeng twitched the corners of his mouth, "This kind of thing, it's more suitable for you to find Xie Qi and Qin Zixu than for me." Nangong Mo sighed and looked at Lin Changfeng helplessly, "With the actions and positions of the Qin family and the Xie family, do you think that even if there is anything, those families will pull them to discuss together?" ”

Changfeng Gongzi understood, "Understood, let's go." You're ...... here."

Nangong Mo said lazily: "It's already this time, it's useless to be in a hurry." Either find out who is behind the scenes before tomorrow's birthday feast, or... No, even if you catch the main messenger behind the scenes now, it's useless, and if you die for money, it's better to spend more time on Your Majesty's defense. Of course, it's best if you can catch it. ”

Lin Changfeng nodded, stood up and said, "I know, I'll go back to Lin's house first." ”

"Thank you for your hard work." Nangong Mo smiled lightly.

Lin Changfeng smiled indifferently and turned to leave. When he went out, he happened to meet Princess Changping who was about to come in, and Lin Changfeng gave the princess a head to let the princess go first, and then gave up.

Seeing Princess Nangong Mo of Changping, he hurriedly got up to greet her, "Why is Mother here?" ”

Princess Changping held a cup of tonic soup and said with a smile: "I heard that you have been very busy in the past two days? ”

Nangong Mo was a little helpless, "The past two days have been indeed a bit busy, and the two children have a mother." ”

Princess Changping shook her head, put the tray in her hand on the table, and said with some complaints: "I really don't know what is going on with the third brother, is there no one under his hand to use it." Forget about the group instructed by Jun'er, even the daughter-in-law has to be busy. If he hadn't let him recognize Jun'er at the beginning, I'll see who he instructed to go. ”

Nangong Mo smiled, helped Princess Changping to the side and sat down, and said, "Even if you don't recognize it, can you still leave your uncle alone?" I know that my mother feels sorry for us, but it's good to be busy with this time. ”

Princess Changping sighed and said, "Thank you for your hard work." He pointed to the things on the table and said, "Just when I wanted to come and see you, I asked someone to stew something and eat it while it was hot." As soon as you asked people to send Xiao Yao and An An over, the two children were nagging that their parents didn't have time to accompany them, so I'll take a look. Nothing happened, right? ”

Nangong Mo shook his head and said, "No, I'll let my mother enter the palace early tomorrow morning." Xiao Xiao and An An will follow their mother for the time being. I've been very busy these two days, and I'm afraid I won't have time to take care of them. Tomorrow morning, Senior Brother and my Master and Uncle will follow my mother into the palace together, and with them, Jun Mo and I don't have to worry about your safety. ”

"So, what's wrong?" Princess Changping frowned worriedly.

Nangong Mo smiled and said, "It's not a big deal, mother don't worry." It's just that from tomorrow until the end of the Halloween feast, I can't trust anyone except my brother, master, uncle, and mother. ”

Princess Changping sighed, knowing that she didn't want to worry about herself, she nodded and said, "That's it, I know, you guys should be careful yourself." I'll leave it to me, don't worry. ”

Nangong Mo nodded and said, "Let my mother worry." ”

Princess Changping rubbed her eyebrows and sighed: "Why can't you live in peace for a few days?" ”

Nangong Mo said with a smile: "Where there are people, there will be fights, but after this time, it should be able to live in peace for a long time." I asked my mother to take care of it for the past two days. ”

Princess Changping glanced at her helplessly, got up and said, "That's it, I'd better go back and look at the two children, I don't understand anything else." Take care of your own safety, and don't grieve your elders. ”

Nangong Mo nodded, "Yes, I'll send my mother." ”
