Chapter 51: I'll Wait for You to Marry Me!
"It shouldn't be the book you said, is it??" Jin Xiuchen glanced at it casually, his tone was soft but determined.
"You really know!" Peng Mo's eyes widened, and she stood up in disbelief, and as soon as the ball of her left foot touched the ground, there was a sharp pain in protest against her recklessness, and she slumped back to sit back with a "hiss".
"Can't you be careful?" Jin Xiuchen's face changed and he stepped forward, grabbed her feet and looked at it, it didn't get worse, he breathed a sigh of relief, pressed her to lie down and sit down, and took her a big pillow to put behind her back, just to see that she was sitting comfortably.
"How do you know?" Peng Mo's focus now was not on his feet, he grabbed Jin Xiuchen's sleeve and asked, "When did you know?"
"I knew it when I saw it the first time!" Jin Xiuchen handed her the account book, and when he came in through the window, Peng Mo was looking at it, presumably thinking that he didn't know, so he didn't hide it.
"The first time?" Peng Mo couldn't remember when he said it was the first time, and he always kept his precautions to the lowest in front of him.
Don't dwell on this issue, he knows it's okay, things are easier to do! Turning the pages of the book, he took out a black sealed envelope from it and handed it to Jin Xiuchen. "Your Highness will help me hand it out. ”
"To Ma Jier from Shuangxia Town?" Jin Xiuchen asked, holding the letter.
"Yes. "Ma Jier is the parent official of Shuangxia Town, and he has the most right to speak in Shuangxia Town, and it is most suitable to use him to cooperate with the work of the third brother, and his name is also on this account book, and he has a lot of silver taels.
Looking at the tightly sealed envelope with pure black and golden moire, Jin Xiuchen raised his eyebrows and chuckled: "Aren't you afraid of me?" She was able to call such a secret letter to her hand and tell herself about the account book, and Jin Xiuchen was still very useful in her heart for this trust!
Peng Mo handed him the account book, and said with a helpless smile: "If Your Highness wants to see this, just look at this, the envelope is very difficult to seal." "Because the material of this black envelope is different from ordinary paper, it took a lot of effort to seal it.
Jin Xiuchen was amused by what she said, pushed away the book in her hand, and put the envelope in his arms. "I'll get there by noon tomorrow. ”
Peng Mo nodded. "The people around my third brother are not safe, Your Highness should be more careful in doing things. ”
The previous general's mansion was planted in the hands of this meticulous work, and since he was reborn for dozens of days, Peng Mo has been careful and meticulous and has not been able to find any clues of that person, and his concealment ability can be seen!
Jin Xiuchen frowned, nodded thoughtfully, still looked at Peng Mo for a moment, and said softly: "I'll come back tomorrow to give you medicine, be careful yourself, don't be reckless and aggravate your injuries." There was helplessness in the last words.
Am I really a child? "Your Highness, give me the medicine, I'll do it myself. Saying that, he stretched out his plain white hand, he came in the rain every time, and he really didn't want him to work hard to go through this experience!
"Is Mo'er afraid that I'm working hard?" Jin Xiuchen's eyes flashed slightly, and there was surprise in his eyes, he reached out to hold her little palm, and bent his lips and smiled.
Peng Mo was grasped by his warm hand, his cheeks flushed, and he hurriedly pulled his hand back.
Jin Xiuchen held her hand and smiled helplessly: "Is Mo'er competing with me?"
Peng Mo was embarrassed, yes, how could he break free of his hand? Let him hold it, he raised his eyes slightly and looked at him and said, "Naturally, I am afraid that you will work hard." ”
The starry eyes are full of softness and pleasure. "Then agree to marry me quickly, and I won't have to go back and forth between the two mansions. Jin Xiuchen smiled lingeringly, and the tenderness in his eyes was about to overflow in the candlelight.
Peng Mo's face was flushed, his gentle and low voice was trembling, and when he met his surging eyes, his heart was like a deer, but he didn't know how to answer, and he lowered his head and said angrily: "I haven't thought of an answer yet!"
Jin Xiuchen looked at it and chuckled, reached out and rubbed her head, and said, "I'm waiting for you." "The voice is gentle, not like words, but with a thick doting!
After Jin Xiuchen left, Peng Mo was the only one left in the room, and it seemed that only the heartbeat of "dong dong" could be heard in the quiet night.
I thought it would be difficult for me to be emotional to others after experiencing Jin Rui in my previous life, but I didn't expect... Peng Mo carefully covered the position of his heart, lest he live up to the affection of these two lives!
Jin Wangfu
In the rainy night, the Jin Wangfu, which was still luxuriously lit some time ago, was dark at this time, and the empty mansion looked a little scary in the rainy night, and only Jin Rui's study was still lit with dim candlelight.
There was a soft conversation in the study.
"Why was Peng Hao sent to Shuangxia Town?" Jin Rui frowned and looked at Wen Ge puzzled, unable to go to the court, naturally he couldn't get in touch with the information of the DPRK and China.
In just a few days, Jin Rui has lost weight, his humble face is haggard, and his body smells of hangover wine from time to time.
"The emperor's decree said that the rain has been frequent recently, and Shuangxia Town is afraid that the river will not be able to withstand the rain, so he sent Peng Hao to inspect the river. Wengo said the news from outside.
Since Concubine Shu was banned, it has become a difficult thing to get news from the palace, and now the Jin Wangfu is on the cusp, and he has to restrain himself a lot when he does things, and he doesn't dare to publicize the news, so that a lot of news arrives at the Jin Wangfu a little late.
"Inspect the river? That's not the business of the Ministry of Industry? Why did my father send Peng Hao to go in vain?" Jin Rui asked in his head, what was the purpose of his father's move? Does he want to use this as an opportunity to introduce Peng Hao into the imperial court as an official?
There are two young generals in General Peng's mansion, which is already not to be underestimated, and if another important minister of the DPRK and the central government is added, it will really be a power leaning towards the government and the opposition! Who else in Kyoto can compete with it?
If he can marry Peng Mo, the trough of the Jin Wangfu at this time will not be solved? Even the most powerful Qu King is not his opponent!
Wen Ge also had a questioning face, and couldn't guess the emperor's thoughts!" No one can guess the emperor's thoughts, but I heard that Peng Mo went to the palace today and met the emperor in person, and less than two hours after she left the palace, the holy decree reached the general's mansion. Wen Ge looked at Jin Rui's face, and said uncertainly: "Maybe this holy decree has something to do with Peng Mo?"
Jin Rui thought for a moment when he heard this, Peng Mo's delicate appearance crossed his mind, smiled contemptuously, and said, "She is a little woman who can influence her father's thoughts?"
Speaking of Peng Mo, Jin Rui's eyes numbed by alcohol brightened a lot, and he remembered the plan to conspire with the Marquis of Zhongyong, and his heart became anxious. "How is the Marquis of Zhongyong's mansion?"
Wen Ge shook his head, and said with a heavy face: "Lord Wang, I'm afraid that the Marquis of Zhongyong's Mansion is going to break off contact with the General's Mansion?" Who would have thought that Mrs. Marquis Zhongyong was such a stupid talent? Even the daughter who was raised was a virtuous person!
Jin Rui's eyes shrank, and he suddenly said urgently: "What do you mean by this?" The two governments have always been close, how could they suddenly break off contact?
In the past few days, Jin Rui has been indulging in the wine altar all day long, and he naturally doesn't know what is going on outside, so Wen Ge told him about the lawsuit that happened in the Zhongyong Marquis Mansion and the General's Mansion in the past few days.
"Zhao Qingying, this idiot!" Jin Rui slapped the table and shouted angrily, his forehead was bruised, and his face was blue and black with anger.
Wen Ge saw that Jin Rui was about to get angry again, for fear of affecting himself again, so he hurriedly persuaded: "Today, Peng Hao found the Marquis of Zhongyong's Mansion, Zhao Shuchang did not face him, and Peng Hao also took the subordinates of the Hou Mansion to get angry, maybe the relationship between the two governments will take a turn for the better." ”
Jin Rui sneered; Peng Hao loves Peng Mo so much, now that Peng Mo is being bullied in front of his own mansion, can he give up? He was sent to Shuangxia Town by his father, so he reluctantly gave up, how could he stop so quietly if he stayed in Kyoto?
"You send a letter to Zhao Shuchang, asking him to take advantage of Peng Hao's absence in Kyoto to go to the General's Mansion to apologize as soon as possible, and be sure to ease the relationship between the two governments before Peng Hao returns!"
When Wen Ge heard this, he nodded, Peng Hao was difficult, but Peng and Peng Mo were women after all, soft-hearted and easy to talk. "What His Highness said is reasonable, and his subordinates will do it immediately. ”
Jin Rui was the only one left in the study, he hung his head slightly and his face was gloomy, squinting at the candlelight on the table, and his dark eyes flashed with a desire for power!
The Mansion of the Marquis of Zhongyong
Zhao Shuchang received a letter from Wen Ge of the Jin Palace, knowing that Wen Ge was on behalf of Jin Rui, he didn't dare to slack off, and hurriedly opened it, and wrote most of the pages in the letter, Zhao Shuchang groaned for a long time after reading it, and walked to Wu Xiaorou.
Because of the irritability in his heart, he did not let anyone accompany him, and walked alone, and as soon as he walked through the garden and stepped into the Jiuqu Corridor, he vaguely saw two faint lanterns at the other end of the corridor, dimly reflecting several people.
The rain was so heavy that the night was as dark as if it had overturned an ink jar, and the lanterns hanging high in the cloister did not do much in the dark night.
Zhao Shu stood still, waiting for the person on the other side to approach, only to hear the person on the other side shout timidly and softly: "But Master Hou?"
"Qi Clan?" Zhao Shuchang heard the voice and asked uncertainly, what was she doing outside when she didn't stay in the yard so late?
Here, Aunt Qi hurriedly took the lantern in the hand of the maid next to her, took a few steps forward to Zhao Shuchang's side, and asked with concern with a soft and charming little face: "Master Hou has been busy all day, why hasn't he rested yet." ”
Zhao Shuchang looked at Aunt Qi with the faint light emitted by the lantern, only to see that her face was blushing, and her eyes were very seductive, and then looking at her slender figure, she had not given birth to a child at all, she was still as light as when she first entered the house, but it was a little more charming than at that time, not as stiff and bulky as Wu Xiaorou, and always dressed up unsuitable for age, adding jokes.
Reaching out and grabbing Aunt Qi's waist, she lowered her voice and asked, "Why haven't you rested yet?"
Aunt Qi struggled a few times, but she didn't break free, so she had to whisper: "Master Hou, there is still a girl!"
Zhao Shuchang glanced up, followed by Aunt Qi's two girls hurriedly bowed their heads and saluted: "The slave and maid are retired." After saying that, he left without looking back.
Zhao Shuchang looked at it and smiled, these two girls were interesting, Aunt Qi snuggled in Zhao Shuchang's arms, and whispered: "Hou Ye scared away all the maids of the concubine, and I will punish the Hou Ye to send the concubine back!"
