Chapter 267 Bearing the husband's surname
She thought, maybe it was the Gu family who saved her? she couldn't bear to see the Gu family's heirs die.
But did Gu Lingyu know about this, why didn't he come to see her?
Just as she was thinking about it, she saw two men walking on the other side of the corridor, and she got up in confusion, when she saw the maid who was guarding her day and night come forward to greet the man, and shouted: Master.
Peng Mo walked in front of Wu with a smile and stood still, bowed his hand, learned from Jin Xiuchen's old appearance, shook off the folding fan in his hand, and said with a smile: "Sister-in-law, my little brother is a friend of Brother Gu." ”
"You... It's a woman!" Wu looked at the "man" in front of him suspiciously, and said suspiciously but surely.
Being seen at a glance was something Peng Mo didn't expect, and he looked down at this piece of clothing with a dumbfounded eye: "Uh... Is it obvious?"
The clothes and folding fans are all from the third brother's childhood, the clothes are a little wide, just covering the part of the chest, although there is less heroism of a man, but it will not be seen through at a glance, right?
Liuying, who pretended to be a little girl behind her, rarely saw Peng Mo look so cute, and lowered her head and smiled.
Wu pursed his lips and smiled, and said: "The girl's face is difficult to hide, and a little cinnabar between her eyebrows is even more stunning, and the low eyebrows between the smiles are full of the gentleness of a lady, so I boldly think that you are a woman dressed as a man." ”
Peng Mo was a little frightened by Wu's observation, touched his eyebrows helplessly, and sighed with a smile: "It turned out to be because of it." ”
"Is the girl my savior?" Wu looked at the woman in front of him, she was well-dressed and her face was charming, and she could see that she was a person of great status.
It's just that she's a woman, is she really capable of saving people from prison? I just heard her talk about Ling Yu, could it be that Ling Yu secretly helped her? What is the relationship between her and Ling Yu?
Peng Mo picked up the folding fan and pointed at her slightly convex lower abdomen, hooked his lips and smiled: "Yes, I saved the lives of you and the child in your womb!"
"Really?" Wu was surprised, she still couldn't believe that a woman could be so capable?
Liuying saw that the Wu family questioned Peng Mo three or four times, and was displeased, and scolded him: "You person, how dare you question my master like this! I don't know how much manpower and material resources it took to save you, you are good, I don't know at all..." ”
Peng Mo raised his hand to stop Liuying's unfinished words.
Wu was a little uneasy to be accused, and was about to apologize when she opened her mouth: "If I hadn't saved you, how could I be here?
Yes, she can come and go freely in this house, there must be no doubt that she is the master, Wu realized that she had offended her life-saving benefactor, and she was about to kneel, but she grabbed her arm.
Peng Mo looked at her and smiled: "I know what you are going to do, but you are pregnant, these gifts will be waived!" said and pulled the person up and sat down on the chair.
Wu Shi bit his lip, thought about it for a while, and still asked the doubt in his heart: "Why did you save me? Do you really know Ling Yu? Why didn't he come to see me?"
Peng Mo turned to look at the scenery in the courtyard, due to neglect, the flowers and plants grew indiscriminately, less craftsmanship, and more casual beauty.
Hearing Wu's question, she turned to look at Wu, gently tapped the folding fan in the palm of her hand, and said with a smile: "Save you because of Gu Lingyu, I'm interested in him!"
"Interested?" Wu's heart jumped, didn't she love Ling Yu? She was so stunning, did Ling Yu also love her? If the two of them really had the same heart, what would happen to herself and the child in her womb?
Peng Mo knew what she was thinking when he saw her expression, shook his head and smiled: "Don't get me wrong, I don't mean emotional interest when I say it!"
Wu was slightly relieved, she really didn't have the confidence to fight a man's heart with such an excellent woman.
He didn't ask her what she was interested in, but said, "Why didn't he come?"
Peng Mo knew who he was referring to, smiled and sat down opposite her, and said, "Gu Lingyu didn't know that you had been rescued by me and settled here. ”
When Wu Shi heard this, he panicked and asked nervously, "Then doesn't he think I'm dead? Is he okay?
Peng Mo shook his head and said, "He's very good, and as far as I know, he has already set up a mound for you in Nanshan." ”
Gu Lingyu is not only good, it is simply too good, for her to stir up the bloody storm in Kyoto.
Tomorrow is the day of the Gu family's execution, I don't know, will he show up? She wants to meet this character more and more!
"He must be very sad. Wu lost his mind and said, and the tears like rolling balls fell down.
Peng Mo didn't respond to this, got up and said, "You are so resting, I will come to see you another day." Saying that, he glanced at Si Yue, and Si Yue nodded in understanding.
"You're leaving?" Wu stood up and looked at her back.
"What else?" Peng Mo turned around.
Wu wiped a handful of tears from his eyes, stepped forward and said, "Jiaying hasn't asked for her benefactor's life yet." ”
Peng Mo smiled again, this woman was extremely transparent, knowing that she would not tell the reason for hiding Gu Lingyu, she didn't ask.
Tilting his head and thinking for a while, he said with a smile: "My surname is Jin." ”
"Jin?" Wu was a little stunned when he heard this, Jin is the emperor's surname, is this woman a royal person?
Out of the courtyard, Liu Ying couldn't help but smile and said, "When did the master's surname become Jin?"
Peng Mo's eyes were full of smiles, and he pointed to the carriage with a folding fan: "Then you ask the people in the carriage, what should I be?"
As soon as the words fell, I saw that the car curtain was opened from the inside by a pair of knuckled fingers, and then Jin Xiuchen's upside-down face poked out, looked at Peng Mo, and smiled slightly: "If you are smart, you will know that you have a husband's surname." ”
Peng Mo pursed his lips and smiled, lifted his wide robe and got into the carriage, got into the carriage and threw himself into Jin Xiuchen's arms, and said coquettishly with a small face: "It's good to see you." ”
Liuying and Qi Mu were very interested in sitting outside to catch the carriage.
"I heard that you were out, so I hurriedly followed. Jin Xiuchen held her with one hand, and rubbed the top of her hair with the other hand, and her voice was very soft and beautiful.
"Isn't it strange for me to wear men's clothes?" Peng Mo sat up straight, straightened his arms, and showed him a treasure.
Jin Xiuchen saw that she was so childlike, and loved her very much, so she pulled the person back, and whispered in her ear: "My Mo'er also fascinates me when she wears men's clothes." ”
Peng Mo was very satisfied with the answer, grabbed his shoulder, and whispered in his ear: "This life can fascinate you alone, it is enough." ”
As he spoke, the two looked at each other and smiled.
Here, the emperor read Zhao Sen's report, summoned Peng Hao to the Qinzheng Palace, and asked again about the hanging of heads in front of the Chengenhou Mansion.
Peng Hao stood in the middle of the hall, saluted respectfully, got up and arched his hand: "Your Majesty, this matter is still in the investigation stage, but the murderer's methods are extremely sophisticated, resulting in repeated interruptions of clues, I am afraid that it will take some time to capture the real murderer." ”
The emperor was still extremely satisfied with this future son-in-law, smiled kindly, and said: "I am very satisfied with your performance in the case of the northern suburbs, and I believe that you can also do well in this case." ”
Being appreciated by the emperor is a very stressful thing, Peng Hao knelt on the ground and said solemnly: "Thank you for the emperor's trust, Peng Hao will definitely live up to the emperor's grace." ”
"Get up, let's talk. The emperor got up and left the imperial case and came to the cabinet.
The Su Guild willingly asked people to prepare refreshments.
"Sit down. The emperor sat down at will and gave Peng Hao a seat.
"Yes. Peng Hao didn't squirm, and sat down beside the emperor like a stream.
When the refreshments were served, Father-in-law Su poured tea for the two and stood aside quietly.
The emperor took a sip of tea and asked casually, "How are you staying in Jingzhao Mansion these days?"
Peng Hao was silent when he heard this, and lowered his eyebrows for a moment and said: "The emperor forgives the sin, Peng Hao just paid attention to the case in the suburbs of Beijing, and did not pay attention to other things. ”
The emperor smiled, but he was cautious and tactful, he didn't beat around the bush, and asked directly: "Zhao Sen is a failure, I have already had the mind to change him, but I have not found a suitable candidate, now, are you willing to take over the position of Jingzhao Mansion Yin?"
Gonggong Su quietly glanced at Peng Hao, did the emperor appreciate him so much? Although the position of Yin of Jingzhao Mansion is not big, it is also an official position of the fourth rank in Kyoto, and the people and things he comes into contact with are not comparable to those of the local officials of the fourth grade.
And, for someone who has never held a position before, it's a great thing.
He couldn't help but wonder, why did the emperor deliberately raise it? For Princess Roujia or His Royal Highness King Zhe?
The Peng family has a heavy army at the border, and at this time, Peng Hao is allowed to hold an important position in Kyoto? The emperor trusts the Peng family so much? The matter of the Gu family has just subsided!
Peng Hao frowned slightly, got up and said: "Your Majesty, Peng Hao has never served in the imperial court, and his qualifications are extremely shallow, I am afraid that he will not be able to hold such an important position as Yin of Jingzhao Mansion, and I ask the emperor to choose another meritorious!"
The emperor waved his hand, motioned for him to sit down, and said kindly: "I know your ability, since I have appointed you, I have a little bit of your meaning, you don't have to be modest, just serve the court and serve me well." ”
Peng Hao knew that the emperor had made up his mind, and he didn't refuse, got up and knelt on the ground, and thanked the emperor.
Inside the Nanyan Country Post House
King Ming and King Wu are in the same room, drinking tea and drinking.
"This king looks at you, and he has a crush on the county lord of Huining. King Ming took a sip and put down the teacup, his tone was light.
"Hmph, why do you need to ask about this king's affairs?" King Wu took a sip of wine and asked in a rough voice.
King Ming's face sank when he heard this, and he scolded: "Don't forget the purpose of this trip, if you provoke the suspicion of Emperor Dayong, your father will not spare you!"
King Wu sneered, squinted at him, and sneered: "The purpose of the father is the father's and the purpose of this king's is the king's, what is the relationship between the two? Besides, don't you also belong to the Peng family?"
King Ming was pointed out of what he was thinking, his face was even more ugly, he slapped the table and got up and said, "Don't talk nonsense!"
"It's funny to see you lose your temper like this!" the Martial King disregarded his angry roar and poured his own wine.
King Ming was extremely angry, snorted lightly, and threw his sleeves away.
King Wu looked at King Ming's back, hooked his lips and sneered, turned the white jade wine glass in his hand, and said leisurely: "This Dayong's wine is very good, and the beauty is also very pleasing to his heart!"
