Chapter 304: Tie people up in the middle of the night
Dinner was eaten by everyone together, and the main and secondary positions were empty, and the dishes and chopsticks were left for Peng Xiang Peng's family.
Since Peng Zhan and Peng Shuo joined the army, the four of them have rarely been able to get together, but the meal was very silent, and everyone finished it with tears in their eyes.
After the meal, several people did not drink tea and Xu talk, but went to the ancestral hall together, gave incense to Peng Xiang, Peng's family, and stood for a while before returning to the courtyard.
Peng Mo still had important things to do in the evening, and estimated that it would take some time for Qi Mu to go there, so he didn't go back to the courtyard, looked up at the white moonlight, and walked towards the garden.
Liuying followed her speechlessly, since Peng's assassination, Peng Mo was obviously silent, and she was also worried about the dream in her heart, so she didn't have a lot of words.
So, although there were two cardamom maidens standing in the garden, it was very silent.
Everything seemed lonely under the moon, Peng Mo gathered the cloak on his body, and walked aimlessly on the cobblestone path under his feet.
Most of the flowers and plants in this yard were planted by Peng's orders, and now that they have no owner, will they be sad?
Thinking about it, Peng Mo cried wordlessly, she always thought more these days, in the past life, in this life, she was not so easy to drill the horns of the bull before, but now her brain is empty, and those past events are drilled into her brain, and she is powerless to refuse.
She thought that she had to be busy, so she kept herself busy, and today she asked Qi Mu about the big and small things that had happened in Kyoto in the past month or so.
In the harem, the queen's condition lingered and did not improve.
In the previous dynasty, King Ning repeatedly won the praise of civil and military officials!
After the queen fell seriously ill, the power of the six palaces was handed over to Concubine Hui.
The front and harem have always been closely connected, the mother is expensive by the son, and the son is expensive by the mother!
King Wu of Nanyan had a big quarrel with King Ming in Baixianglou some time ago for the Oiran of the Hundred Fragrance Building, and if it wasn't for the close attendants to stop him, he almost made a move.
This matter spread widely in Kyoto, and everyone was opened to the two princes of Nanyan Kingdom.
And the Oiran Chaoyun girl also became popular all over Kyoto because of this drama of brother rivalry, and her value doubled.
Jin Roujia's princess's mansion has been built, and the people have already moved over, and the emperor has given a clear decree that no matter who inherits the throne in the future, she must not be restrained and wronged.
There are not a few princesses who have been favored after the founding of Dayong, but it is the first one who can open a government like Jin Roujia before she has reached the end of the reign and get such an incredible holy decree.
Peng Mo thought that most of these things were the result of the queen's pleading, and thinking about it, the queen's condition was indeed not optimistic.
However, because of this incident, King Ning kept sending small gifts to the princess's mansion, and he got a very good reputation in front of the palace.
And Jin Zhe is very low-key in these constant conspiracies, except for the emperor's summons, he almost never leaves the Chengqian Palace.
Because of this, it has a reputation of both virtue and filial piety in the hearts of everyone.
Regardless of whether Jin Zhe was really filial to the queen or doing superficial work, Peng Mo breathed a sigh of relief for him.
The word "filial piety" is not easy to obtain, compared to King Ning's cleverness of jumping up and down, Jin Zhe's is much more gentle and calm, and he is more convincing in doing things.
The marriage between the county lord of Siyan and the king of Jin has been set on the ninth day of the lunar month.
The Jin Wangfu attaches great importance to it, and the dowry is given as much as possible.
Such a good marriage also makes people temporarily ignore the identity of Siyan Wucheng, the county lord, and most of Dayong's people are very tolerant.
Wei Yingran fled from Kyoto, and the people sent by the emperor failed to catch it, and now the emperor has summoned everyone back and suppressed the matter for the time being.
Some people also analyzed that the emperor was waiting for the attitude of Wuchengguo.
Whether it is a fight or a peace depends on the attitude of Wuchengguo.
And the emperor's approach of "compromising and seeking perfection" has also earned a good reputation for loving the people, after all, it is the people who suffer the most in the war.
Listening to these people's things, Peng Mo sneered, Kyoto is really a stage where big operas are sung all the time.
Seeing that Qi Mu avoided many things lightly, Peng Mo took the initiative to ask her about the rumors after she and Jin Xiuchen fell off the cliff.
I remember that when I was first rescued, there were already inappropriate words.
She has been in the house for more than a month, and she has not heard about the affairs outside the house, so she doesn't know how outrageous the rumors are.
Qi Mu was a little embarrassed, but looking at Peng Mo's serious expression, he still said.
Peng Mo laughed after hearing this, and roughly summed up two points, one is that Jin Xiuchen had long coveted her beauty, and stole incense and jade while she was falling off the cliff.
The second is that the two have already been heart-to-heart, secretly Chen Cang, but they were given marriage by the emperor and could not continue to be affectionate, and they had no love, so they made an appointment to jump off the cliff and die in love.
It's not too much, but in these two versions, Wei Yingran has become the biggest victim.
Just as he was thinking about it, he suddenly heard a sound of broken footsteps, getting closer and closer, and Liuyi looked at the sound source vigilantly.
But I didn't want an old man in a gray cloth shirt to come over, holding two pots of flowers in his hands.
Peng Mo frowned, and after thinking for a while, he remembered that this person was Lao Yang, who was serving flowers and plants in the house.
It's just that it's past dinner time, why are you still waiting for the flowers and plants?
As soon as Liu Ying wanted to open her mouth to ask, she was stopped by Peng Mo and said slowly, "Don't scare him rashly." β
Liuying nodded, and before he had time to ask, he hurriedly put down two pots of flowers and went to the outer courtyard.
Peng Mo was even more puzzled, what was this for? Isn't it just for two pots of flowers? But why did he go to the outer courtyard again?
Without waiting for Peng Mo to think clearly, Qi Mu came over, lowered his head and whispered, "Princess, everything is ready." β
Peng Mo nodded, gathered his cloak, and the group of three avoided people and went outside the mansion.
Because the three elder brothers were all in the mansion, she wanted to interrogate Zhao Qingying and Wu Xiaorou to alarm them, so she ordered Qi Mu to quietly take people out of the mansion.
The place Qi Mu was looking for was an empty courtyard, which was also Jin Xiuchen's, and it was extremely hidden.
In a weed-filled room, an oil lamp the size of a bean was lit.
Peng Mo walked in, looked at Zhao Qingying and Wu Xiaorou who were tied up in the grass by the five flowers, and curled his lips slightly.
It seems that Qi Mu has put some effort into "inviting the two of them".
Thinking of this, he turned to look at Qi Mu and said, "Thank you for your hard work, the errand was done very well." β
Qi Mu bowed his head and said very humbly: "The princess praised her, and her subordinates just did what they had to do." β
Peng Mo nodded with a smile: "Go and bring people." β
Qi Mu obeyed the order, went out of the door and looked at Qianmian outside the door and said, "Keep it guarded, I'll come when I go." β
Naturally, there is nothing wrong with Qianmian, this time the princess took the three of them when she went out, and he didn't dare to neglect it at all.
In the room, Hotaru stepped forward and pulled the rags from the two people's mouths.
As soon as Zhao Qingying's cloth left her mouth, she shouted: "Peng Mo, what are you going to do?"
Wu Xiaorou was also angry, but she was obviously much weaker to Peng Mo, so she just asked in a low voice: "Mo'er, what are you doing here?"
said it was a question, but there were many questions.
There was only one chair and one table in the room, and the table was filled with various weapons.
Peng Mo sat down on the stool, looked at the two of them with cold eyes, and saw that the two of them turned their eyes away before she said coldly: "I thought you knew it!"
"In the middle of the night, you sent someone to tie us up, how do we know it? Peng Mo, why are you so vicious, quickly untie me, my arms are bloodied. The more Zhao Qingying spoke, the more angry she became, and in the end she was already scolding.
Wu Xiaorou's emotions were also affected, looking at the leisurely Peng Mo, and said angrily: "I'm your aunt, look at what you've done?"
Peng Mo laughed out loud at the behavior of the two, first chuckled, then laughed, and laughed until the tears came out of her eyes, she raised her hand to wipe the tears from the corners of her eyes, and said lightly: "It's ridiculous, I will suffer again and again at the hands of you two fools!"
Let's not talk about it in the previous life, but in this life, she was so light on the enemy, and her mother died tragically!
"What did you say?" Zhao Qingying couldn't understand her words.
"How forgetful are the nobles, it seems that you have forgotten a lot of things recently?" Peng Mo hooked his lips, picked up the sharp blade on the table, and walked slowly to the two of them, the knife in his hand gently brushed Zhao Qingying's cheek, and finally fixed on her shouting mouth.
Zhao Qingying's eyes widened, the coldness on the blade made her shiver, she looked at Peng Mo in panic, but she didn't dare to speak, because she was afraid that the blade would cut her lips.
Wu Xiaorou wanted to reach out to stop it, but her two arms were tied behind her back, she had to open her mouth to stop it, but she didn't dare to make any more noise, but she persuaded softly: "Mo'er, what did your cousin do wrong?
Peng Mo sneered lightly, turned his eyes to look at Wu Xiaorou, and asked suspiciously: "I really look so naΓ―ve?
Saying that, he looked at the knife in his hand very suspiciously, raised his eyebrows and said, "It seems that this knife is too pediatric!"
Liuying was very understanding, and hurriedly took the mace on the table and handed it over.
This mace is a nail at one end and a hammer at the other, and it holds the middle section of the hand, and can hurt people at both ends.
One end of the nail can blur the flesh and blood of the person, and the pain is unspeakable, and the hammer can smash the bone and hammer the flesh!
Peng Mo checked it, nodded, and praised: "This looks a lot more fierce." β
Zhao Qingying's eyes were straight, her body subconsciously hid back, but her back was already against the straw pile, she couldn't stop shaking her head, and screamed: "Peng Mo, you go away, if you dare to hurt me, I will let you pay it back a hundred times and a thousand times!"
Peng Mo listened to her words, the smile on his face was all retracted, his eyes shot at her as if he had slipped a knife, his lips opened lightly, and he said in a voice of ice slag: "You have done it a thousand times and a hundred times, and I should do the rest, isn't it?"
"What? What did I do? You don't want to talk nonsense!" Zhao Qingying's heart jumped, didn't Peng Mo know about that matter?
No, how could it be? She was far away in the royal garden, and all the people who knew the inside story in the Lotus Garden were dead, she wouldn't know, she wouldn't!
Zhao Qingying's heart was steady, but her body still couldn't stop trembling, staring at Peng Mo, and shouting to herself: "I don't know what you're talking about, let me go, you don't have the right to tie me up!"
