Chapter 123: Set fire to the village
Just because he doesn't do business with the Pei family, the eldest son of the Pei family wants to get rid of him? This reason is a bit far-fetched, Situ Yimo is a little unconvinced, it must be this person who learned the secret of the eldest son of the Pei family, so he caused the disaster of killing.
Pei Mingjin knew that Situ Yimo was smart, and he couldn't fool her with a word, but according to the past few days with her, Situ Yimo was also a measured person, and if he didn't say much, she wouldn't ask deeply.
Indeed, as Pei Mingjin thought, Situ Yimo was not a curious woman, she just wanted to know how much trouble he caused this murderous disaster.
"Golden Peony can be so big, you are the richest man in Huainan, you must know some nobles, this eldest son of the Pei family can't kill you for a little business, not to mention, the sons of the second room of the Pei family and the third room of the Pei family are all in business, and they are not short of money."
Situ Yimo had a guess in his heart, "Isn't the Pei family's business unclean, and you happen to have their evidence in your hand?" ”
Pei Mingjin nodded frankly, and had to admit that Situ Yimo was indeed very smart.
Situ Yimo thought for a while, "I heard that the second son of the Pei family is the boss of Luoxia Jinzhuang, the fourth son of the Pei family is the boss of the first floor of the world, the golden peony is the first cloth village in the world, and Luoxia Jinzhuang is in charge of clothes, don't you Golden Peony have business dealings with Luoxia Jinzhuang?" Luoxia Jinzhuang's business is not clean? ”
Pei Mingjin didn't answer directly, but asked, "Why is there a problem with Luoxia Jinzhuang, isn't Pei Sigongzi running a restaurant?" We also have a granary business and a winery. ”
Situ Yimo raised his hand and said that it was impossible, "I heard that the fourth son of the Pei family is arrogant, obsessed with fine wine, and has no interest in business. ”
"Oh? Arrogant, unstoppable? Pei Mingjin raised his lips and smiled faintly.
Situ Yimo didn't notice this, but said, "Master Ma is also a person who is obsessed with wine and food, and Pei Sigongzi, who can make him praise from time to time, has a good character." Moreover, I have also been to the first floor of his world, the environment is quiet, the style is free and easy, the shopkeepers seem to be well-trained, and the food and wine are really good. ”
Pei Mingjin heard such a compliment, the smile on his lips was full, and when he saw Situ Yimo looking over, he accepted the smile, leaned back, and said, "Well, I do have no business dealings with Pei Sigongzi." ”
He is known as Huan Yu Zhao, and he is the boss behind Golden Peony, even his father doesn't know, and Pei Jinghao doesn't know. If he knew, thinking about the financial resources of the golden peony, he might not be in a hurry to get rid of himself.
As for Luoxia Jinzhuang, there is indeed a problem! But Pei Jinghao didn't kill him because of this, after all, he didn't know that Huan Yuzhao was the fourth son of the Pei family, his fourth cousin.
"After all, Pei Jinghao is Pei Guogong's sister-in-law and the cousin of the second prince, if you don't have a backstage, Pei Jinghao can kill you once, and there will be a second time."
Situ Yimo saw that Pei Mingjin seemed to be thinking something, considering that he had saved him, he could still say a few words about what he should remind.
"Since the Golden Peony has strong financial resources, you can use your financial resources to rely on the nobles, so that they have some scruples and no murderous intentions for the time being."
Pei Mingjin paused when he heard this, and seeing that Situ Yimo was serious, the corners of his eyebrows rose slightly, and he looked at her and said, "Isn't Situ Wangfu a good backer, and the Pei family doesn't dare to touch Situ Wangfu." ”
Situ Yimo heard this and smiled, "A Pei family, naturally dare not compete with my Situ Wangfu, even the second prince has to scruple, after all, my grandfather has an army of 400,000, and half of the Manchu officials are discharged from my uncle's Lishan, and the second prince is too late." ”
Pei Mingjin looked at the woman in front of him and spoke with arrogance, if the snowflakes were icy and clean, and if the plum blossoms were arrogant, she was not pleasing to the eye, so she couldn't help but look at her a few more times.
"But it is precisely because of this that we in Situ Wangfu have to be careful with our words and deeds. If you are caught by someone with a heart, it will be a fatal injury. Pei Guogong is a noble family after all, and his strength should not be underestimated. I heard that when the old Pei Guogong accompanied Emperor Taizu to fight the world, there was an army, which was the dead soldier of the Pei family, and it is said that there were more than 1,000 people, who were proficient in secret arts, and what did it have to do with the ancient domain.
The secret techniques of the ancient domain are still very intimidating, so many courtiers dare not offend the Pei family. But my Situ Wangfu has strong troops, and the Pei family will not take the initiative to provoke our Situ Wangfu, and on the premise that there is nothing to do, I will not take the initiative to cause trouble. ”
Situ Yimo rubbed her eyebrows, but as soon as the words fell, she realized what she had said, and she couldn't help but be a little surprised how she could say this to an outsider.
Pei Mingjin heard Situ Yimo talk about the dead soldiers of the Pei family, the corners of his eyebrows jumped, as a member of the Pei family, he naturally knew, he had heard his father mention the dead soldiers before, it was indeed as Situ Yimo said, it had something to do with the ancient domain, because the Duchess Pei Laoguo was a person from the ancient domain, and her identity was still very noble.
But this dead soldier is a taboo of the Pei family, the people in the house will not mention these dead soldiers if they have nothing to do, unless they have to, these thousand dead soldiers cannot be moved, of course, only Pei Guogong can order these thousand dead soldiers.
Situ Yimo felt that he had said a little too much, and seeing that he was tired, he got up and left, thinking that Xinglu had been investigating Lu Chuan's affairs, and maybe there was news.
After seeing Lu Chuan last time, Situ Yimo learned that he had bad habits in this person. I consulted with Xinglu and started from him, and later found out that this person likes to rob people's girls, and I don't know how many women from good families have suffered.
Xinglu has been following Lu Chuan, saving a woman who was humiliated and seeking death, and after comforting the girl, the girl learned that Xinglu was going to deal with Lu Chuan, and in order to take revenge, she was willing to stay by Lu Chuan's side and send them a letter.
This girl's name is Cui'e, delicate and lovely, and Lu Chuan was fascinated, and Lu Chuan also carried her as an aunt, stayed by her side, and brought her back to Lu Mansion. Because of Lu Chuan's love, she lived well in the Pei family, and she herself was also very skillful, and she subdued a few maids, although she was just a subordinate, but the subordinate people also had their own relationship lines, which were intertwined, and it was much more convenient to check things.
Xinglu went to see Cui'e last night, and she should have come back with news at this time. Situ Yimo guessed right, Cui'e did find clues about the land shed.
Situ Yimo wanted to check it out tonight, Xinglu was worried, and wanted to explore the way first, but Lu Peng was not an easy person to deal with, he was cautious, and they should also be careful.
After dark, Situ Yimo changed into night clothes and went to Luoxia Jinzhuang with Xinglu, and Cui'e found that Lu Peng and the shopkeeper of Luoxia Jinzhuang often met at night, as if they were plotting something.
Today, I heard Huan Yuzhao say that there was a problem with Luoxia Jinzhuang, and Cui'e also found out that Lu Peng had a conspiracy with Luoxia Jinzhuang, so she naturally had to come to Luoxia Jinzhuang to take a look.
The gate of Luoxia Jinzhuang was closed, there was a sound inside, it could be seen that there was a vigil, Situ Yimo turned over and entered from the backyard, and saw through the moonlight, only two small servants were guarding in the lobby.
The lobby is full of ready-to-wear clothes, and at first glance, there is nothing special about it. Situ Yimo went up to the second floor, but she didn't rush up, because she heard that there were also people guarding above, listening to the footsteps, there were at least six people.
With so many people guarding, there must be something weird.
Situ Yimo opened the bag on his waist, released two small bees, and used the dementor incense to control it to fly up to explore the way, and the guards above frowned when they heard the buzzing sound, and saw the two bees flying around their faces, provoking them to draw their swords and cut them, and the bees' wings were sharp, dragging them for a while.
This gave Situ Yimo a chance, and when he entered it, the lord of Nirui County collected things that were not unusual, including night vision goggles, and then found that this was a study with a few ledgers and some antiques in it.
Situ Yimo frowned, if it was just so simple on the surface, how could there be six people guarding it. She guessed that there was a secret room in it.
Looking closely, her eyes suddenly fell on a landscape painting, walked over and opened the painting, saw the mechanism, her eyes lit up, and saw a door open on the side, Situ Yimo stood outside the door and listened, didn't hear anything, and then went in.
Xinglu took out the night pearl, and was very surprised to see that it was full of medicines, and took out a bottle of pills, and when she saw the words written on the bottle, her face turned red and she was very ashamed.
Situ Yimo checked the surroundings and found nothing, so he walked to the medicine placed in the box by box, and saw that Xinglu's face was not good, so he asked, "What's wrong?"
Xinglu stopped Situ Yimo, unable to speak, but she was afraid of polluting her eyes, so she said, "County Lord, it's the kind of filthy thing, used for sexual affairs......"
Situ Yimo was startled, stunned for a moment, covered the discomfort on his face, took a bottle quietly, and suddenly put his eyes on the drawings in front of him, and just raised his hand to take it out, he heard a snap, and secretly thought it was not good.
I wanted to turn around and leave the secret room, but I saw six black-clothed people appear, Xinglu immediately drew his sword, and Situ Yimo hid the drawings and joined the fight, these six people are not their opponents, but they still have helpers, and there are ten hidden guards around.
Situ Yimo thought that it would not be easy to fight for a long time, and before the hidden guards came, he had to get rid of them, so he threw a *** and dragged it out, but as soon as he came out of the secret room, he saw the hidden guards coming and shot fiercely.
She didn't want to expose her skills and arouse suspicion of her identity, so she hid her strength, she didn't want to fight them head-to-head, and she focused on defense, but this would definitely be difficult, and if she continued to fight like this, it would only attract more people.
Situ Yimo was thinking about how to get out, when he saw a masked man, this person had excellent martial arts, and these people were not his opponents at all.
Xinglu looked at these people who fell to the ground by a sword, and was shocked, just wanted to say something, but saw this person go out with her county lord in her arms, she just wanted to shout, thought of something, and was slightly angry in her heart, took out a fire primer, and burned Luoxia Jinzhuang.
"It's you!"
"Nan Jinchu!"
Situ Yimo looked at the man in front of him, and suddenly remembered, "You ......"
"It's nice to remember my name."
Nan Jinchu smiled, seemed to be in a good mood, he showed the white porcelain vase he got it, Situ Yimo saw it, touched his waist, his face was gloomy, glared at him, stretched out his hand and said, "Give me back!" ”
"This kind of thing, you should not touch a boudoir woman."
"You ......"
"Lord Anhe, I saved you just now!"
Situ Yimo wanted to say something, but he saw the flames soaring into the sky, frowning slightly, "It's not the fire that Xinglu set out." ”
"You bare, you daring."
Nan Jinchu took a few steps closer to Situ Yimo, and before Situ Yimo realized that an emerald green hosta was already pinned in her hair.
"You ...... man"
