Chapter 320 The General's Mansion Comes to the Door to Propose
When she arrived in Kyoto last night, the gates were closed, and she had to wait for the night under them.
overheard the guards at the city gate talking about Jin Xiuchen's "new favorite", and she had already lost her mind with jealousy.
As soon as the city gate opened, she hurried to the inn, in order to let Siyan give her advice, but what she didn't want was cold words.
"What? you want to kill me?" Si Yan sneered.
"Do you think I don't dare?" Li Ji glared at Si Yan angrily, the right palm in the wide sleeve was slowly raised, and the black mist re-emerged, and when she looked closely, the black mist was filled with dense and small insects.
Si Yan looked at her coldly, her gaze turned to her palm, her eyes crossed with shock, she didn't expect that she would cultivate a new Gu worm so quickly.
Such talents... , in addition to the knot of "Jin Xiuchen", Li Ji is really a good killer!
The mind that had already decided to abandon Li Ji was shaken again.
After looking at each other for a moment, Si Yan took the lead in opening her mouth and said with a smile: "I said that I would help you, and I won't break my promise." ”
Li Ji's expression eased a little, but her right hand was not put down, looking at Siyan, she spoke: "I must kill that woman with my own hands, you go and catch her for me!"
Siyan looked at her as if she was a joke, raised her eyebrows and asked, "Do you know the importance of this woman?"
Although she also hates Jin Xiuchen and the woman named Zhen'er, she is not reckless, and things have to be planned step by step to be perfect.
"What is the importance?" Li Ji frowned, very disdainful in her heart, how important can a plaything be? Jin Xiuchen is just a momentary novelty!
Siyan remembered that Jin Rui came to apologize, her expression was as cold as snow, and she snorted: "She is inseparable from Jin Xiuchen now, if I catch her, how can I hide it from Jin Xiuchen?"
Li Ji twisted her eyebrows, yes, if Jin Xiuchen finds out that she killed his woman, I'm afraid she will be angry!
I had a dislike with him before I entered the palace of King Chen, and this deal was not cost-effective!
After a while, she sat down discouraged, her face full of unwillingness: "What do you say?" Although she doesn't like Si Yan as a person, she has to admit that Si Yan is indeed a resourceful person, and her degree of viciousness is not inferior to her!
Seeing that she could still listen to persuasion and soften, Siyan couldn't help but nod with satisfaction, sat down, played with the porcelain cup in her hand, and said with a smile: "What else can I do?
When Li Ji heard that this matter was going to drag on, she couldn't help but say anxiously: "But... But if he really asks for the emperor's decree of marriage, then I will have no effect!"
Siyan snorted coldly: "The emperor will not agree to Jin Xiuchen marrying that lowly woman unless he is old and confused!"
Li Ji was silent, she was still worried.
"Haven't you heard the rumors of Jin Xiuchen and Peng Mo under the cliff of Junze Mountain?" According to Siyan's thoughts, a lowly woman is not enough to worry about at all, and it is Peng Mo who Li Ji should be worried about.
After all, the General's Mansion would not watch Peng Mo lose his innocence.
Whether it is a trick or a sincere resistance to Peng Mo, whether Jin Xiuchen brought people back to Beijing, the general's mansion and the emperor will not ignore it, and this matter is about to be decided!
"But Jin Xiuchen has forgotten about Peng Mo now, what do you worry about her?" Li Ji was very disdainful, she thought, Jin Xiuchen must have succeeded under the cliff, a woman who has already succeeded, that man will still worry about it? Naturally, he left it behind and picked new flowers to see!
Inferred from Jin Xiuchen's pampering of Zhen'er, Peng Mo's is just an empty appearance, and even a "prostitute" ordinary person can't compete, so how much more does she need to worry about?
Siyan understood what Li Ji meant, but she didn't agree, how could Jin Xiuchen and Peng Mo be so simple? Both of them are used to pretending to be pigs and eating tigers!
"Peng Mo's matter is put aside for the time being, you should now think about how to catch that slut in King Chen's Mansion!" Li Ji was anxious again.
Siyan was impatient in her heart, stared at her coldly, and asked, "Do you have a good way to drive away or capture this woman alive now?"
"I.... Li Ji choked, if she had a way, what would she do if she came to her?
"Listen to me, there is no need to worry about this matter, I will definitely let you marry into the Chenwang Mansion!" After she succeeds, isn't a prince's marriage pinched in the palm of her hand?
Li Ji couldn't think of a good way for a while, so she could only listen to Siyan's words, calm down and wait for the opportunity!
Zhou handed over the post to the Shangshu Mansion of the Criminal Department early in the morning, and Mrs. Su personally greeted her outside the door, and when she saw someone, she was busy and enthusiastically invited to the backyard.
Mohe Garden
Peng Mo slept very well this night, and when she opened her eyes, it was dawn, and she looked at the other half of the bed and smiled softly.
She got up and came to the dresser, she looked at her lips that were redder than before and the kiss marks under the neckline and on the chest, and her face was "booming" red.
Thinking of this, she laughed again, she had also asked this sentence before, and he replied: I belong to the tiger!
I didn't call anyone in, I went to find clothes to put on, and as soon as I fastened my belt, the door was pushed open from the outside.
Liuying walked in with toiletries, saw Peng Mo who was already dressed, and said with a smile: "Why doesn't the master call his subordinates?"
"Just want to call, and you come in. Peng Mo coughed lightly and said with a weak heart.
After freshening up, I had breakfast, and before I read the book for a while, a little girl came to invite her, saying that the third young master invited her to go over to see rare things.
"What kind of rarity? is it still worth inviting the third brother?" Peng Mo stood up with a smile and took Liuying to Ruize Garden.
The third brother has not been out of the door for the past few days, what good things can he get?
Passing by the garden, she saw the flowers and plants Lao Yang digging in the soil, she stopped and asked: "Don't you freeze to death when planting flowers in this cold winter?"
Lao Yang raised his head when he heard the sound, and saw Peng Mo hurriedly saluting and replied: "Fourth Miss, the old slave is not going to plant flowers, but to turn over the soil, let the snow soak down, and grow better next year." ”
Peng Mo didn't know how to raise flowers and plants, nodded and walked away.
Liu Hotaru followed behind him and asked in a low voice, "Master, isn't this old man the one who sneaked around that night?"
Sneaky? Peng Mo frowned slightly, he didn't know that Liuying had this feeling, and couldn't help asking, "Why do you think he behaves sneaky?"
Liuying heard Peng Mo's question, so she replied: "When we came to the garden that day, the second gate was already locked, not to mention how he came in, even the delivery of flowers on this big night is not reasonable. ”
It's just that they were busy leaving the house that day, otherwise she would have followed it carefully and checked the whereabouts of the old man.
Peng Mo frowned, that day she saw that Lao Yang was puzzled but didn't think much about it, and when she heard Liuying mention it at this time, she felt very reasonable.
This old Yang has been in the General's Mansion for many years, and she hasn't paid much attention to it in the past, is there something wrong with him?
Thinking all the way to Ruize Garden, he raised his voice and said, "Third brother, what good things do you want to give me?"
Peng Hao heard the sound and walked out, and said with a smile: "I heard that you had a good rest last night?" said and looked at her face seriously, and it was really better than the previous two days.
Peng Mo felt weak when he heard the word "last night" mentioned, coughed lightly and said vaguely: "Yes, I had a good rest last night." ”
Entering the room, Peng Hao poured two cups of tea and said, "Jin Xiuchen came last night. ”
The tea that Peng Mo just entered squirted out with a "poof", and looked at Peng Hao in disbelief, how did the third brother know?
"What's wrong with you? Are you still worried about him coming to me?" Peng Hao asked suspiciously while wiping the tea on his face.
It turned out that Jin Xiuchen also came to the third brother last night! Peng Mo's heart fell, and when she thought of the gaffe, she hurriedly explained: "It's just... Suddenly, I was a little surprised. ”
"The girl is really outgoing, and he is the only one who can make you react like that. Peng Hao looked at Peng Mo's expression and said sourly.
"Ahem, the third brother doesn't want to make fun of me. Peng Mo's face turned red.
Peng Hao rarely saw his sister shy, and said with a smile: "Okay, let's get down to business, do you know why he came last night?"
"Why?" Peng Mo really didn't know, she didn't even know about him coming to the third brother.
"For your marriage!" Peng Hao leaned over and lowered his voice.
"Our marriage?" Peng Mo's eyes widened, he came to talk to the third brother about the marriage? The emperor has already agreed? No, if the emperor has good news, he should have told her last night!
Peng Hao nodded: "Yes, he knows where the emperor will not agree easily, so he used some tricks, and said that you may have to be wronged recently." ”
Peng Mo didn't speak, just looked at Peng Hao, waiting for his later words.
Peng Hao continued: "Sister-in-law has already left the house to find Aunt Mu. ”
"Aunt Mu?" "The wife of Mu Langyue, the secretary of the Criminal Department, what kind of medicine is sold in this Jin Xiuchen gourd?"
"Well, Jin Xiuchen guessed that the emperor would not easily mention your marriage, judging from the observation of the past few days, it has the intention of fooling the past, so he wants to let us come to the door to propose, so let the sister-in-law go to ask Aunt Mu to come forward. ”
Peng Mo twisted her eyebrows, she had already figured out Jin Xiuchen's plan.
He really can't come forward easily, that will not only put the Chenwang Mansion into a crisis, but also make the emperor doubt the purpose of the General's Mansion!
Moreover, with the existence of Zhen'er, he wants outsiders to see his "affectionate" side, so that the subsequent drama can go smoothly.
That's why the General's Mansion came forward first and forced the emperor to "remember" about this matter.
Peng Xiang and Mu Langyue are old friends, so the general's mansion and the Shangshu Mansion of the Criminal Department are also close, even after Peng Xiang and Peng's death, this correspondence has not been broken.
This kind of thing, it is indeed reasonable for Aunt Mu to come forward, if the expectation is good, Aunt Mu will come forward this time to eat behind closed doors!
Aunt Mu will not hide this matter from Uncle Mu, with Uncle Mu's upright and fiery temper, if she knew that Jin Xiuchen "didn't want to marry", she would definitely make trouble in front of the emperor, so that the rest of the matter would be logical!
As for the grievances, the disagreement of the Chenwang Mansion, in the eyes of outsiders, the General's Mansion and her have become a great joke, and ridicule and sarcasm are naturally indispensable!
It's just that this grievance is nothing in her opinion!
It is enough to marry him!
