A silent slaughter finally ended as night fell.

Dark clouds pressed on the top, the long-brewing torrential rain fell, the wind and rain slapped the leaves outside the window, many of the leaves had fallen to the ground before the autumn wind was killed, the unpaved bluestone road was muddy, and the rain mixed with muddy water mixed with blood stains washed the mountain of no return.

The smell of blood in the heat gradually dissipated, and there should be a hint of freshness and coolness after the rain.

It's just that the assassins captured by Xie Yu all bit their teeth and hid poison on the spot, and committed suicide by drinking poison.

Xiao Cheng's face was slightly gloomy: "I, the third emperor brother, have raised a lot of loyal dead soldiers. ”

Xie Yu leaned back in the chair indifferently, and tapped his aggrieved fingers on the table with one hand: "Dead people don't lie, find a guy to dissect all the corpses and see if you can find out something." ”

Xiao Cheng nodded in response.

At noon the next day, the elite soldiers sent by Emperor Jin Yuan escorted Xiao Cheng and Xiao Ji away, leaving Xie Yu alone to deal with the aftermath.

After the heavy rain, all the corpses were disposed of, and everything seemed to return to the original peace of the mountain of no return.

After making sure that there was no danger, Rong Feng and Huaiyin had to go back to the courtyard where they lived.

As soon as they stepped into the courtyard, Yunxiao and Bihua hugged her with tears in their eyes and cried.

Bihua was aggrieved and said: "Girl, how can you leave the maids, if you meet an assassin, you can still push us out and stop us." ”

Rong Feng shook his head with a smile, nodded at Bihua's forehead and said, "You don't know kung fu, what can you stop?" It's okay anyway. ”

Yun Xiao also sobbed and was aggrieved: "How can it be okay?" The maidservants stayed in Miss Meng's courtyard, but after half an hour, they could hear the sound of swords outside, shouting for help one by one, and the maidservants were really worried that something would happen to the girl. Yesterday, there were assassins who almost broke into the door and killed many of Miss Meng's guards, if it weren't for Uncle Pei's presence, I really don't know if the maids would have had the life to see the girl. ”

Rong Feng was a little surprised: "Cousin Ting? Was he hurt? ”

Bihua wiped her tears: "The maid was about to say, Uncle Pei's left hand was slashed, and the doctor said that fortunately, the wound was not deep, and it would be fine for a few days." ”

Rong Feng nodded: "I'll take a look." ”

She always felt that Pei Ce's feelings for Meng Yiling were a little unusual, or that Pei Ce seemed to know Meng Yiling.

As soon as I went, I saw Meng Yiling accompanying Pei Ce, Pei Ce hung on his chest with a white cloth wrap in his left hand, and a book was placed in front of him, Meng Yiling sat aside doing needlework in his hands, but the dress in his hand was a little familiar, it was Pei Ce's clothes.

Rong Feng stood at the door with her eyebrows raised, a smile appeared in her eyes, she clenched her hands into fists and coughed lightly twice when she put them to her lips.

Meng Yiling saw that Rong Feng's face was first happy, and then he found that his fair cheeks were as red as a fire, and it was not impossible to do the needlework in his hand.

It was Pei Ce who spoke first: "You girl ran outside knowing that day was dangerous, you really have no way at all." ”

Meng Yiling looked at her and said gently: "Sister Rong is fine, everything is fine." ”

The atmosphere of the two was harmonious like a newlywed, but the two little girls called Bihua and Yunxiao were a little overwhelmed and retreated silently.

Rong Feng said: "Is Cousin Ting's injury okay?" ”

Meng Yiling lowered her head guiltily: "If it weren't for yesterday to save me, Pei Gongzi wouldn't have ...... In addition, Pei Gongzi is going to take the autumn test in a few days, and I am really uneasy. ”

Pei Ce smiled, and hurriedly comforted him, at this moment, Rong Feng felt that he needed to go out and leave a little space for the two of them.

Meng Yiling bit the thread with her teeth, put her clothes on the round stool on the side, grabbed her crutches and said, "I'll go back first, I won't stay much if Sister Rong has something to do with Pei Gongzi." ”

Rong Feng said: "Then I'll send Sister Meng." ”

The two walked under the corridor, Rong Feng keenly noticed that Meng Yiling had something on his mind, and said: "If your cousin is on the list in the autumn test, the second aunt is in a hurry to see the marriage for him, my grandmother said that if my cousin can have a woman she likes, she will personally come to help her cousin propose marriage." ”

Meng Yiling bit her lower lip, stopped her steps abruptly and looked at Rong Feng, hesitated for a while and asked, "If yes, if I am interested in Pei Gongzi......"

Seeing that Rong Feng's eyes seemed to be shocked, he hurriedly said: "I know, I don't know how much I do, I have a disability, and I have a disfigured appearance...... It's that I don't deserve him......"

Rong Feng shook her head, from the very beginning, she actually hoped that if Pei Ce could walk with Meng Yiling, Meng Yiling was a good girl, and she also had a good family situation, the Pei family needed this help, but she didn't want Pei Ce to approach Meng Yiling with this scheming, which would be too unfair to Meng Yiling.

"It's not. Sister Meng, don't be presumptuous, my sister is worried that my sister's family is prominent, and my grandfather Pei's family is just a merchant, it is really not the right household, and Duke Pei and his wife must think about it more. Isn't my sister afraid that my cousin deliberately approached you? ”

Meng Yiling was slightly stunned, and a hint of pleasure appeared on her face, she didn't expect Rong Feng to talk to her so much: "If I can really get Pei Lang's permission, no matter what happens in the future, I will admit it." ”

Rong Feng seemed to remember something and said, "Qi Qi is dead." ”

Meng Yiling smiled on her face, her eyes widened in some shock, Qi Yi died?

She opened her mouth but didn't ask anything.

Sending Meng Yiling out of the courtyard, Rong Feng's face was slightly heavy and stared at Pei Ce: "What do you mean by approaching Sister Meng?" ”

Pei Ce paused as he turned the pages of the book, and raised his head to meet Rong Feng's eyes, which were inexplicably deep.

"I believe it's not that I haven't seen Sister Meng's thoughts about you, I don't want you to approach her for the Pei family." Rong Feng said seriously.

Pei Ce closed the book: "It's not for the Pei family, it's for yourself." ”

Pei Ce's answer was ambiguous, and Rong Feng frowned slightly: "Then you have to show your sincerity." ”

Before leaving, Rong Feng still asked the question in her heart, she turned her head to look at Pei Ce in front of the window: "Cousin Ting, did you know Sister Meng before?" ”

Without asking for an answer, he turned his head and left.

Pei Ce didn't say anything, he did know Meng Yiling, but that memory was so long that he was about to forget it.

The matter of not returning to the mountain was suppressed by the order of Emperor Jin Yuan, and so many people died in Shengjing but there was no rumor, Rong Feng didn't know why, even if the family knew, but when he saw his child return safely, he kept silent and didn't ask anything more.

Rong Feng and Rong Han returned to Ronghou's Mansion in the same carriage, and on the carriage, Rong Feng glanced at Rong Han, only to see that her injured hand was still wrapped in a white cloth and placed on her lap, and her expression was a little wilted and unwilling to speak.

Rong Feng's eyes sank, and he didn't know what he thought, so he sneered.

returned to King Rong's mansion, but it was rare to see that King Rong was also there, and Qi endured it for a long time and waited for Rong Han to make a good gift before stepping forward to hug her.

"It's okay, I'm back." As soon as he looked down and saw that Rong Han's hand was injured, he exclaimed, "What's wrong with your hand?" Why didn't the person who wrote to him say that his hand was injured? The county lord is older, why don't you take more care of Han'er. ”

Although Rong Wang Ye didn't speak, he looked at Rong Feng with a slight disapproval.

Rong Feng sneered in his heart, and sneered: "The sixth sister is accompanied by the third prince, I will take care of it more, I am afraid that the side concubine will have to think more." Why didn't the side concubine ask how the sixth sister was injured? Did someone do it on purpose? ”

She turned her head to stare at Qi: "But you are only anxious to ask me what I mean?" ”

Qi's words were choked, and he said softly: "It's the concubine who is anxious to see Han'er injured." ”

Rong Wang Ye said in a deep voice: "The side concubine doesn't have the intention to ask, but how can you, as a junior, blame the elders." ”

Rong Feng was not afraid of making Prince Rong angry, and sneered: "If you don't stand upright, your words and deeds are misbehaving, are you still afraid of people saying it." Feng'er wanted to say something straightforward, her father wanted to be punished, and the punishment was enough. ”

Rong Wangye's face was slightly ugly, and he was about to get angry.

Old Madam Rong spoke: "It's a blessing that the two children came back safely, what more can I say!" Since Han'er is injured, let's go to the doctor and ask the four girls, is it okay? ”

After a pause, he said to Rong Feng's voice in a deep voice: "When will you be able to change your temperament?" Will you be so reckless when you enter the palace in the future? Where did the rules you learned in the past go? ”

Rong Feng pursed a sneer at the corner of his mouth, stood up and blessed slightly: "Feng'er is at fault, confess to my father and grandmother." Feng'er still had to go to her mother to say goodbye, so she retired first. ”

Old Madam Rong's cloudy eyes revealed a glimmer of essence, but she still nodded and let Rong Feng leave.

And Qi Yi died in the Mountain of No Return, and the Qi family can only say that he died of a sudden illness on the way home, and the funeral was hastily held.

However, Qi thought a little more, pulled Rong Han and asked, "Your cousin said that she was sick, but what happened in the Mountain of No Return?" ”

Rong Han was full of excitement, and his expression was out of control for a moment, and he pushed away Qi's hand irritably: "How would I know?" She hurt me on the mountain of no return, broke my strings, I hated her for not being able to do so, and still had the heart to care about her affairs. ”

Qi felt that Rong Han was overreacting, but he thought that he was frightened in the Mountain of No Return, so he didn't ask more, and said: "Although she is a concubine, she is also your uncle's daughter, you will go back to Qi's house with me tomorrow." ”

Rong Han's face turned pale, and he was a little reluctant to respond.

……

Imperial.

Emperor Jin Yuan stared at the music in front of him with deep eyes, as if he wanted to engrave all the words in his eyes, he raised his hand and closed the music chapter, and said with an unclear meaning: "This Yuan descendant beside me is becoming more and more capable. ”

Suddenly, the eunuch reported: "Qi Emperor, Yin Fuzi asks to see." ”

Emperor Jin Yuan was stunned for a moment, his eyes lowered, and he didn't see joy and anger: "Biography." ”

Emperor Jin Yuan put one hand behind his back, looked at Yin Fuzi condescendingly, and said: "I thought that after the events of that year, you would not want to enter the palace until you died, and you would hide in the Mountain of No Return for the rest of your life." ”

Yin Fuzi arched his hands, bowed his head and said expressionlessly: "The minister is unwilling to enter the palace." ”

As soon as these words came out, Emperor Jin Yuan's brows were slightly locked, and there was a trace of killing intent condensed in his eyes, but it was faintly dispersed in the words behind Yin Fuzi. "The reason why the minister was reluctant to enter the palace was because he was ashamed of His Majesty, and he couldn't solve problems for His Majesty, and he didn't find out about the Xie family's rebellion in time at that time."
