Chapter 69: Assassination from the Crown
No matter how Pei Guogong's mansion tried to dissuade Pei Jinniang, she still had the intention of leaving, and she met Gu Jinshu the day before she was about to leave.
The place where the two met was Pei Yuniang's courtyard, and on this day, Gu Jinshu came to visit Pei Yuniang, and Pei Jinniang came to say goodbye.
"Is this your friend?"
Listening to Pei Jinniang's question, Pei Yuniang also felt rare, after her sister came back, she lived in her own house without leaving home, and she was not very enthusiastic about everyone in the house, how could she take the initiative to mention Gu Jinshu today?
"I came from Qinzhou some time ago."
"Surname Gu?"
“…… Be. ”
Pei Yuniang and Gu Jinshu were stunned at the same time when they heard her self-talking question, and the former hurriedly responded to a word after shaking his head.
"Is your mother okay?" Pei Jinniang ignored the surprise in the eyes of the two, but looked at Gu Jinshu with a little nostalgia, as if she wanted to see another person through her.
Although Gu Jinshu was surprised in her heart and didn't understand the relationship between her and her mother, she still replied decently: "She died three years ago. ”
“…… Then you mourn. ”
Pei Jinniang retracted her eyes and wanted to leave, but when she stepped out of the threshold, she suddenly stopped: "Is your brother okay?" ”
"He's fine."
Gu Jinshu was confused even if she was a person in two lifetimes at this time, and she didn't quite understand why she asked her younger brother, and why did she know so much about her own affairs when she was far away in Lizhou?
The doubts in her heart were answered for no one, and the person who had made her fall into the mystery had already gone away with the wind at this time, only Pei Yuniang muttered: "I haven't heard of my sister and your mother intersecting before!" ”
Although the two of them are hairpins and nobles in the same period, and the ladies of the wang family are beautiful, Ye Wanyu of the Ye family is extremely graceful and quiet in the deep boudoir, and her sister was exquisite in all directions, and she is not a person all the way.
"Maybe it's a little bit of friendship!"
"Really?"
Gu Jinshu's reply couldn't satisfy Pei Yuniang's curious heart, you must know that her sister has a very Buddhist temperament after coming back this time, and she is not interested in anything, but why is Gu Jinshu alone a special case?
"When will the matter between you and the Xie family be decided?" Looking at her thoughtful look, Gu Jinshu moved her words away. When Pei Yuniang heard her say this, the corners of her frowning brows instantly flattened, and she became a little shy, "There is no news about this matter yet!" ”
Gu Jinshu looked at her like this, how could there be any reason why she couldn't guess? Even if there is no news, I am afraid that it will not be far from ten, after all, Pei Jinniang came back from Lizhou not only to prevent her from marrying into the deep palace, but to settle the matter between her and the Xie family.
According to Pei Jinniang's methods, I am afraid that this matter has already been done.
"Your sister is leaving?"
In the last life, Pei Jinniang has been hidden in Lizhou, and later when the Great Zhou court collapsed and the royal family fled south, Lizhou has become the target of public criticism, and it was destroyed by the Beicang army in the northwest in less than a month, and the battle is said to be extremely tragic.
- And she has disappeared since that war, some people say that she died under the iron cavalry of the Beicang Kingdom, some people say that she lost her hair and became a nun, and some people say that she became the concubine of the general of the Beicang Kingdom with her beauty in the world...... All kinds of legends are eternal.
It's just that this legend was soon banned by another thing, and the Beicang Kingdom staged a farce of bloody slaughter for three days in Qinzhou, and the world changed color in those three days, and the blood of Qinzhou people was millions, and the bones of all living beings were gone.
Xu wanted to take revenge on the stubborn resistance of the people of Lizhou, so when the general of Qinzhou adopted a strategy of non-resistance and took away all the elites, the people of Beicang Kingdom were like hungry wolves pounced on food, and those three days were called 'Qinzhou Bloody Night Day' by later generations.
"She doesn't want to stay in the capital."
Although her sister was born and grew up in Si, this land is the place where her green silk turns gray after all, how can she not be sad?
Although she wanted to keep it, she didn't dare to say much.
"Oh!"
Gu Jinshu hummed softly, but her eyes looked a little misty, and she didn't know what she was thinking.
After two days, the sun is rising in the east on this day, and there is already a sound of selling in the morning market of the capital, and the emperor in the deep palace is sitting on a chair with deep eyes, and a pair of well-maintained hands are slowly and rhythmically beating the dragon chair inlaid with nine dragons spitting pearls.
At this moment, a black shadow hurriedly rushed in and knelt in front of him: "Back to Your Majesty, Pei Jinniang's car has left the capital and is heading in the direction of Lizhou." ”
"Who is escorted by the Pei family?"
"Pei Shizi."
“…… Don't hurt the life of the Pei family, as for Pei Jinniang, give her a good time! The emperor decided the life and death of others after a slight pause, and a hoarse voice came from the black-clothed guard, "No, my subordinates obey orders." ”
"Remember, leave no trace."
"No."
The black-clothed man retreated for a long time before the emperor closed his eyes leisurely, leaned his head slightly towards the dragon chair, and his expression was obscure.
He didn't really want to do it, but why did she come back to wade through this troubled water? The most important thing is that he saw too many uncertain factors in her, and he also saw the unconditional concession of his own emperor.
Such a woman who affects the overall situation should not stay in the world, otherwise she will really respond to that sentence: This woman is a phoenix, and Da Zhou will die.
- So this woman can't stay.
In early autumn, the green grass in the suburbs has disappeared, although it has not withered but has begun to turn slightly yellow, and the small water spots floating in the air have brought some inconvenience to people who travel in the morning, and make people feel uncomfortable.
At this moment, the horses under Pei Shizi's seat suddenly began to neigh, and the birds in the woods began to fly, and the atmosphere was tense to the extreme for a while, and even Pei Jinniang, who had white hair covering her face, poked out half of her head.
And at the moment when she poked her head out, a sharp arrow suddenly rushed straight from the depths of the woods, like a tiger out of a cage that no one could control.
When Pei Shizi found out, the tail of the sharp arrow had already whistled past his eyes, and he couldn't do anything when he saw the arrow shoot at his sister, so he could only let out an exclamation: "Sister, be careful." ”
Fortunately, Pei Jinniang, who was born in a family of military generals, has some martial arts when she urinates, although her body is not very high, but she is very sensitive, and when the arrow came over, she deflected the direction as quickly as possible, and then she almost dodged an arrow, and the arrow shot at the window of the carriage, and the cold arrow revealed a cool killing intent.
said that it was too late, and more than a dozen figures flashed in the woods in an instant, and without saying a word, they became entangled with Pei Shizi and them. Those people were well-trained and had extremely high coordination skills, and they divided a few people to entangle Pei Shizi, while the rest of them collectively attacked Pei Jinniang, obviously wanting Pei Jinniang's life.
The guards around him fell one after another, and at the moment when only the Pei family siblings and the man in black were left on the spot, one of them even bypassed Pei Shizi's obstruction and slashed at Pei Jinniang. At the same time that the sister and brother were in deep despair, a folding fan came from the air, and a lazy and flamboyant voice slowly sounded: "The lackey of the Zhou royal family, why is he here?" ”
