Chapter 388: The Assassin of the Yang Mansion
The two maids glanced at each other, and one of them spoke: "How long has the gentleman been awake? Why haven't you heard the summons for the slaves to serve?"
"Just woke up!" Peng Mo put down the book, came to the round table, pinched the snack and took a bite, and asked casually, "What time is it?"
"It's the end of the hour. The maid returned.
"Oh, I've slept for so long, it's time to go back, where are you adults?" Peng Mo patted his head and said with annoyance.
The maid bowed her head and said: "Our lord has something to go out of the house, and I told him before leaving, he will rush back as soon as possible to accompany Mr. for dinner, so please ask Mr. to stay." ”
Peng Mo nodded and said with a smile: "Since the adults are kind to stay, then I will stay for a few more hours." ”
Outside the gate of the Yang Mansion, Peng Shuo knocked on the door of the Yang Mansion majestically!
The butler bowed forward and said with a smile: "I don't know if the general is coming, I will miss the welcome!"
Peng Shuo glanced at the housekeeper and asked in a deep voice, "Where is Yang Yan!"
The housekeeper smiled for a moment, then smiled again, and replied, "Our adults have gone out and haven't come back yet!"
Peng Shuo snorted coldly, mercilessly sarcastic: "It's fake to go out, it's true to be in the mansion!" said as he pushed away the housekeeper and walked towards the mansion.
The housekeeper stepped forward to stop him, glared and said, "General, our adults are not in the mansion, please come back another day!"
Peng Shuo didn't like the housekeeper's irritability, and looked at him coldly: "The housekeeper is tired, let's rest here!" After speaking, he slashed his hand on the back of the housekeeper's neck, only to see the housekeeper fall to the ground softly.
He has also been to this Yang Mansion a few times, remembering the location of the guest house, and just after walking a few steps, dozens of government soldiers came up with spears in hand.
Peng Shuo's face sank, and he sneered and asked, "Yang Yan will let a few of you shrimp soldiers and crabs stop me in the future?"
The soldiers looked at each other, but they didn't say anything, they had heard of Peng Shuo in Tongcheng a long time ago, and knew that his martial arts were good, so they couldn't help but feel a little empty at this moment, and the spear in their hands retreated and didn't dare to step forward.
Peng Shuo looked at the mockery even deeper, and reprimanded in a deep voice: "While General Ben is still in a good mood, get out!"
But he was really afraid of Peng Shuo, so he hesitated, and at this moment, he saw one of the government soldiers shouting in a low voice, and said, "Let's attack him together, and even if he is a god, he will break some flesh and skin." ”
Peng Shuo laughed, and before he could speak, he saw them attacking together, and immediately smiled, dodged the spear attack that stabbed him, quickly drew the saber on his waist, and knocked the nearly approaching government soldiers to the ground in three or two strokes.
"Stop!" a burst of shouts rang out.
Hearing this, the government soldiers collected their weapons, and took a few steps back and did not dare to make a mistake.
When Peng Shuo heard the prestige, he saw Yang Yan under the cloister, and sneered: "Didn't Lord Yang go out?
Yang Yan's face was even more ugly, and when he heard that Peng Shuo was the only one who came, he sent a housekeeper to send him away, but he didn't want Peng Shuo to dare to break in, and he also made a move with the government soldiers!
With Peng Shuo's skills, he was afraid that only one person could snatch Wang Yuan, so he had to come forward to stop him, but he was so blocked by his sharp teeth that he couldn't speak.
Looking at the soldiers who fell to the ground, he changed the topic and asked: "Even if the general has a higher official position than the lower official, he can't openly break into the mansion of the lower official!"
Peng Shuo rubbed the lines on the sword, then put the long sword into the sheath, looked at Yang Yan and said with a smile: "Lord Yang misunderstood, it was the housekeeper of your mansion who brought General Ben in, but the soldiers in Lord Yang's Mansion were bold and reckless, and they dared to maliciously hurt the housekeeper, and General Ben couldn't see it, so he taught a lesson, Lord Yang should thank General Ben, why are you still angry?"
This is the first time that Yang Yan has learned Peng Shuo's cheekiness and ability to reverse black and white, and he has not returned to his senses for a while.
Peng Shuo saw that Yang Yan was deflated, his heart was relieved for a while, he walked straight to the main hall, sat down on the upper seat, looked at Yang Yan who followed with a black face, and said with a smile: "What about tea? Why don't you see people serving tea? Lord Yang's hospitality is not very good!"
Yang Yan's face sank again, he stiffly called someone to serve tea, looked at Peng Shuo in the right seat, and then looked at the remaining seats in the hall, no matter how he sits, he was a level lower, so he chose not to sit down.
The maid quickly served tea, Peng Shuo took a sip, nodded and said, "Yes, the tea in Lord Yang's mansion is good, much stronger than that in the army." ”
Yang Yan couldn't even force a smile, stared at Peng Shuo, and asked in a cold voice, "What does the general have to do?"
Peng Shuo laughed and said strangely: "I should ask Lord Yang about this sentence, why did you detain my friend?"
Sure enough, it was for Wang Yuan! Yang Yan's heart was awe-inspiring, and he retorted lightly: "The detention? General's words are wrong, and Brother Wang voluntarily stayed in the mansion. ”
When Peng Shuo heard this, he took the opportunity to say: "Since it is not a detention, Lord Yang will call someone out and ask him if he is willing to stay here or go back with me." ”
Yang Yan choked and consciously fell into Peng Shuo's trap.
With a secret hatred in his heart, but his face was not obvious, he took a step forward and said with a smile: "The general rushed here in a hurry just for Brother Wang? This makes the lower officials have to wonder, what is the identity of this Brother Wang?"
Peng Shuo's eyes stared at Yang Yan deeply, and his tone was cold and sharp: "Lord Yang, bring people out as soon as possible, with you and me, it's all right, otherwise..." The rest of the words were not spoken, but the coercion exuded from the whole body was already self-evident!
When Yang Yan heard this, he was furious, clenched his fists, glared at Peng Shuo, gritted his teeth and said, "General, is this a threat to the lower officials?"
Peng Shuo looked at him for a moment, his smile deepened, even colder, and he lightly opened his lips and spit out a word: "Yes!"
Yang Yan choked, he didn't plan to face Peng Shuo directly, so even though he knew that Peng Shuo wanted to send Wang Yuan to save Peng Hao, he didn't pierce this layer of window paper, but now, this layer of paper was pierced by Peng Shuo!
Now that there is a stalemate, he almost wants to kill Peng Shuo to relieve his anger.
With the killing intent, a rage appeared on his body, his eyes touched the sword on Peng Shuo's waist, and he calmed down slightly, if it was a hard touch, he would not be able to defeat Peng Shuo.
But at this point, if he wants to release people immediately, he can't do it!
The letter has been sent, and he will be able to reach Nanyan tomorrow, and then King Zhuang will immediately search the city, and he will succeed for the most part at that time.
Peng Shuo took Wang Yuan away, and he had already lost the opportunity.
Therefore, no matter what, he has to leave Wang Yuan until tomorrow.
Thinking of this, he said in a tough tone: "Hmph, then what if I say I won't let people go!"
"Then Lord Yang is just going to be unhappy!" Peng Shuo said and stood up and walked a few steps in front of Yang Yan.
The burly and tall figure invisibly brought Yang Yan a lot of pressure, and thinking of Peng Shuo's fast movements like the wind, he unconsciously took a step back.
The soldiers gathered outside the hall rushed in as soon as they saw it, and gathered around Peng Shuo in unison.
Yang Yan had confidence, and just wanted to persuade Peng Shuo to go back, he saw a small guy running over, and said, "My lord, the officials of the military department have arrived." ”
Originally, the housekeeper was to do the reception of the officials of the military department, but at this moment, the housekeeper was making peace with the Zhou Guild, and the errand of this reception fell on the porter.
Where did he understand the bends and corners, and when he saw that the person was from the military department, he hurriedly invited him in.
Zuo Yi looked at the government soldiers in the hall, and said jokingly: "Lord Yang, what is going on?"
Peng Shuo is here, the two sides are still in this battle, didn't he know about Yang Yan's plot against Peng Hao?
If so, do they have a way to live?
"Lord Zuo!" Peng Shuo looked at the person who walked in, and said with a smile, but the smile was piercing cold.
These people are calculating the Peng family in a nest of snakes and rats, how can he tolerate it!
Zuo Yi hurriedly waved his hand and said, "General Peng!"
Peng Shuo's gaze swept over the two of them, and he asked coldly, "I don't know what the two adults have come to Tongcheng for business?"
When Zuo Yi heard this, his heart was raised, and he stammered with a white face: "Will... Checkmate.... ”
Yang Yan was also bluffing, looking at Peng Shuo's appearance, it was obvious that he had already known about the military department's coming to Tongcheng, but he still pretended not to know, and secretly found Wang Yuan, which was really cunning and hateful!
"There are assassins!" an earth-shattering roar from the courtyard interrupted the cold atmosphere in the hall!
When Yang Yan heard this, his eyebrows rose upside down, and he pointed at Peng Shuo and said: "General, you are a general of Dayong, how can you secretly rob people behind your back?"
Peng Shuo sneered, "Lord Yang means that I brought this assassin?"
Yang Yan gritted his teeth: "Except for the general, I can't think of anyone else!"
The matter has come to this point, it is inevitable that the matter will be exposed, he must get rid of Peng Shuo, whether this assassin is brought by Peng Shuo or not, he must be detained on Peng Shuo's head!
Zuo Yi immediately understood what Yang Yan meant, and randomly reprimanded: "General, the emperor and the philosopher have always valued you, how can you do such a deceitful thing? Won't you live up to the emperor's grace?"
Peng Shuo laughed, glanced at a few people sarcastically, and said, "In that case, let's go with me to see the true face of this assassin!
The little guy bowed his head and said respectfully: "In the southwest corner!"
Yang Yan walked out after him, and when he heard that the assassin's location was in the southwest corner, he couldn't help but wonder, there was nothing anywhere, if the assassin went, he should go to the guest courtyard, what to do in the southwest corner?
Peng Shuo didn't wait for a few people to react, and took the lead to walk towards the southwest corner.
Zuo Yi and Yang Yan, who were a few steps behind, glanced at each other, and they both read the killing intent in each other's eyes.
The government soldiers, the little guys all followed.
The southwest corner had long been in chaos, and dozens of government soldiers had gathered in front of a dilapidated iron gate.
At this time, the iron door was ajar, and it was dark in the iron gate, and the wind blew, and the smell of dampness and blood came out.
Peng Shuo walked over and saw such a scene, and asked in a deep voice, "Where is the assassin?"
The soldiers replied, "It's in the iron gate!"
"Iron Gate?" Peng Shuo glanced at the direction of the iron gate, then looked at Peng Shuo who came over, and asked, "What is this room for!"
"It was originally a place in the house to deal with people who made mistakes, but it was not used again after all these years, so it was vacant. Yang Yan also glanced at the iron door, the iron door locked by thick iron chains was opened at some point, and the smell of blood made him frown.
