Chapter 192: Mochizuki Tower Goes to the Appointment
Qiaoyun came in with a food box and placed the snacks in the box on the table one by one.
Dim sum is bird's nest cake, red date cake, peanut crisp, chestnut cake, the chef's craftsmanship is excellent, the dim sum made is both beautiful and delicious, making people move their appetite;
For a while, the room was filled with the smell of food.
After eating refreshments, Peng Mo smiled and asked, "Do you feel bored?" Why don't you go to the garden with your daughter?"
Peng smiled and responded. "It's okay, just take a walk to help with digestion. ”
The mother and daughter came to the small garden, and the garden of the General's Mansion was decent, without the prosperity of the imperial garden, nor the elegance of the Chenwang Mansion.
Since the death of General Peng, Peng rarely goes out, and is accompanied by Buddhist scriptures, sandalwood, wooden fish, and Buddha beads all day long.
Peng Mo knew that he couldn't persuade his mother to go out for a walk, so he talked about the flower viewing in the palace yesterday, and deliberately said a dull thing interesting and vivid to make Peng's laughter.
Peng really likes to listen, and every time he hears a funny part, he can't stop laughing.
Qiao Yun lightly bumped Qiao Si's arm and said in a low voice: "Sister Qiao Si, have you noticed that the fourth lady has changed a lot recently, and she used to make Madame so happy there?"
Hearing this, Qiao Si glanced at Peng Mo's back, and replied in a low voice: "Fourth Miss used to be just weak and weak, but now that her health is improving, she naturally wants to be filial by Madame's side." ”
Qiaoyun felt that the fourth lady was very filial, and in the past, unless she was sick and collapsed, she couldn't move, otherwise she would come to the Lotus Garden three times a day to ask for peace.
Chenwang Mansion, Pinmo Xuan
Qi Xin walked into the study, saw Jin Xiuchen's location clearly, and said with a bow: "Your Highness, the princess has already set off to make an appointment with Wei Shizi." ”
Jin Xiuchen put down the account book in his hand, twisted his eyebrows and said, "Moon Tower?"
Qi Xin's jaw replied yes.
Thinking of Wei Yingran, a stubborn rival in love, Jin Xiuchen's eyes sank, and for a moment, his thin lips hooked lightly, and he got up and said, "Let's go." ”
Qi Xin followed behind Jin Xiuchen and asked puzzledly, "Where are you going, Your Highness?"
Jin Xiuchen said lightly: "Naturally, I went to accompany the princess to the banquet." ”
At the same time, Qi Mu drove away from the front of the General's Mansion.
The carriage swayed, Peng Mo pondered, for Wei Yingran, she may be too kind, Jin Xiuchen has not been able to find out his details so far, she should do something to find out!
Liuying took out a blanket from the cabinet, put it on Peng Mo's legs, and said, "Master, do you want tea?"
Peng Mo shook his head, saw Youmeng open the corner of the curtain with a novel face, looked out of the car with a full face, smiled lightly, and then lifted the curtain beside him.
The carriage was moving into a secluded alley with a back street, and the noise of the market could be faintly heard, and the carriage stopped sharply while looking at the moss on the green bricks.
The inertia made Peng Mo lose his stability and almost fall, but fortunately, Yumengyan quickly helped her. "Master, be careful. ”
Peng Mo's eyes sank, and he said in a low voice, "Qi Mu, what happened?"
No one outside answered.
Seeing this, Liuyingyu felt a pang in his heart, and touched his hand to the weapon behind his waist.
The two glanced at each other, and Youmeng quickly came to Peng Mo's side, blocking her behind her, while Liuying picked up the curtain of the car, and the weapon in the other hand also shot instantly.
There was a "ding" sound, and the sound of the weapon being knocked away, followed by another sound.
"It's me. "A deep and elegant voice.
Only then did Liu Ying see the people standing in the alley, she breathed a sigh of relief, looked back at Peng Mo and said, "Master, it's Your Highness." ”
Peng Mo breathed a sigh of relief, moved to the position of the car door, and looked out.
In the alley, he stood leisurely, wearing a round-necked dark blue embroidered moire brocade robe, a jade pendant on his waist, and a folding fan with the picture of the four gentlemen, which was indescribably luxurious.
The corners of the seductive lips raised a lazy smile, and a pair of peach blossom eyes were soft and rippling.
"disturbed the princess, and his subordinates were derelict in their duties. After Qi Mu saw Jin Xiuchen, he immediately reined in his horse and saluted, and failed to inform Peng Mo in time, until she was frightened, which was really dereliction of responsibility.
After a false alarm, Peng Mo shook his head and said, "It's nothing." ”
Jin Xiuchen put away the folding fan, approached the carriage, looked at her, frowned and said, "But it scared you?" It was his negligence, he only wanted to give her a surprise, but he didn't expect to be only surprised, seeing her frightened, he was distressed and annoyed.
Peng Mo smiled at him, playfully compared a small finger, and said, "It's a little scared, no one dared to stop my carriage in the past." ”
Because the carriage had the logo of the Shogun's Mansion on it, no one in Kyoto dared to stop the car rashly, and it was the first time that it had stopped so suddenly, and it was in this alley, she naturally thought of the assassins of some time ago.
Jin Xiuchen smiled: "It's my fault, in order to make up for my mistake, is it okay to accompany the princess to the banquet today?"
Peng Mo smiled and nodded, "In this case, Your Highness, please get in the car." "If you don't let him go, I'm afraid that the little vinegar jar will be overturned again.
Liuying Youmeng felt that she was in the way, and jumped out of the carriage smartly.
Qi Xin handed the flying weapon back to Hotaru, who looked at the devil instructor, thanked him, and carefully took the weapon.
Jin Xiuchen knew that she was joking, his face was a little blushing, he scratched her little nose, and just wanted to get into the carriage, he heard footsteps from the alley, and then saw a man in gray walking closer, kneeling and saying: "My subordinates see the prince, the princess." ”
Jin Xiuchen looked at the man and said in a deep voice: "Get up, what's the matter?"
The man in gray stood up and said, "Your Highness, the emperor in the palace is urgently summoned." ”
What is the matter with the emperor's urgent summons? Jin Xiuchen thought for a moment and was not surprised, and his good-looking eyes flashed impatiently.
Peng Mo frowned after hearing this, and said puzzledly: "The emperor shouldn't have time to play chess with you these days, right?"
With Gu Lingyu's case, the government and the opposition have already fallen out, and the noble envoys of Wucheng and Nanyan are approaching next month, the emperor can't do it alone, how can he still have time to summon Jin Xiuchen?
"But what did you say?" Jin Xiuchen turned to ask the messenger.
"No, it's just a word. The man in gray shook his head.
"This king knows, you can stand down. Jin Xiuchen nodded.
The man in gray receded his jaw.
Jin Xiuchen turned to look at Peng Mo, pouted, and said, "I'm going to enter the palace now, and I was going to go with you." As he spoke, he stretched out his hand to her, his lips opened and closed, and he said a word silently.
Peng Mo could see what he said: "I want to hug you." His face turned red, and he glared at him with disgust, and then looked at the few people standing by the carriage, lest they see the clue.
Jin Xiuchen thought that Peng Mo was hindered by the presence of several people, coughed lightly, and said, "Turn around, I have something to say to the princess, don't eavesdrop." ”
Everyone was stunned when they heard this, and they were stunned for a moment, then turned around and pretended to be deaf and dumb.
Peng Mo's face turned red, and he gritted his teeth and said, "What nonsense?"
Jin Xiuchen grinned, stepped forward and hugged the people in the carriage.
Peng Mo was hugged with a full embrace, a little shy, and a little funny, pushed him, and said in a low voice: "You go quickly, I have them here, it's safe." ”
Jin Xiuchen tightened his arms, hugged her for a while before letting go of her, pinched her little face, and said, "Well, I'll look for you at night." ”
Peng Mo smiled and nodded, watching him walk away, and the three of them got into the carriage in turn and drove away from the alley.
Peng Mo coughed uncomfortably, pretending to be calm and picked up a book and looked at it.
Seeing Peng Mo's quietly red cheeks, Liuying Yumeng couldn't help but smile secretly.
Walking to the Moon Tower, the master and servant came to the room on the second floor, she arrived nearly half an hour earlier than the agreed time, Wei Yingran really hadn't arrived yet, and looked at Liuying sideways.
Liuying nodded knowingly, took out the paper bag in his arms, and went downstairs.
Xiao Er, who led the way, asked respectfully, "What should Miss eat?"
Youmeng picked up Peng Mo's favorite snacks and flower refreshments, Xiao Er wrote them down and prepared them himself.
Wei Yingran was not a procrastinator, and the door to the room opened two quarters of an hour later.
Peng Mo looked sideways when he heard the sound, looked at the handsome man standing outside the room, his eyes were shallow, he hooked his lips and smiled, and said, "Wei Shizi." ”
Wei Yingran looked at Peng Mo in the room with some astonishment, and when she saw the soft smile on her face, the emotions in her heart became more and more raging, she put away the emotions in her eyes, and arched her hand: "It's really a mistake, let the county lord wait for a long time." ”
There was still a long time before the agreed time, I thought he had arrived early, but I didn't expect Peng Mo to be with him earlier, and I couldn't help but feel sorry when I thought of making her wait.
Peng Mo shook his head with a smile and replied: "The prince is polite, the little girl just accompanied the two girls to buy some daily necessities, and when she saw that the time agreed with the prince was approaching, she came directly, not that the prince was late." ”
Wei Yingran nodded, walked into the room, sat cross-legged opposite Peng Mo, looked at the refreshments on the small table, and secretly wrote down her favorite food.
Peng Mo smiled and asked, "What kind of tea does the prince want to drink, what kind of snacks do you use?" ”
Wei Yingran was a little flattered by Peng Mo's gentleness in the past, and nodded: "A pot of dragon wells before the rain is enough." ”
Liuying listened and commanded herself.
Peng Mo looked at Wei Yingran, frowned, and said, "Is there something wrong with the prince inviting the little girl here?"
Wei Yingran said with a smile: "It's been some time since I said goodbye to Jiaye Temple, and I miss the county lord very much, so I sent a post to invite the county lord to come." ”
Peng Mo's smile remained unchanged, but his tone was much heavier, and he said, "The prince is cautious." ”
Wei Yingran shook his head and smiled, "Just kidding, don't be nervous about the county lord." ”
Peng Mo glanced at him, took a sip of flower tea and said, "Do you remember the assassin encounter on the outskirts of Beijing?"
"Naturally, I remember. Wei Yingran nodded, not knowing why Peng Mo said this.
This bow and arrow was given by the little girl to the guards beside the prince, and he didn't accept it last time, and the little girl guessed that he might be afraid of the prince, so he didn't dare to accept it. ”
After Peng Mo finished speaking, Youmeng held the weapon box and put it on the small table between the two.
Wei Yingran opened the box, saw the bow and arrow inside, raised his eyebrows, and said with a smile: "I accepted it safely in the next generation, thank you." "It's hard to find such a good bow.
Liuying personally walked in with tea, respectfully placed it in Wei Yingran's hand, and said, "Shizi, your dragon well before the rain." ”
