Chapter 329: A Strange Incident in the Prime Minister's Mansion
Ning Shangmo also pondered for a moment, and said loudly: "It is likely that he is a person who is dissatisfied with the emperor or the imperial court, if not, the triumphant return of the expeditionary army should have been a happy thing, why did he come out to make trouble?" ”
"How do I know this?" Yan Nanhao smiled bitterly and shook his head, "I can't see who is dissatisfied with me, and maybe this person who is dissatisfied with me is always duplicitous to please the emperor." ”
"It's better for us to put this matter aside for the time being, but the palace must strengthen vigilance, especially the Queen Mother, Yun Guifei's bedroom, the imperial study and other places, and we must be closely guarded, just in case. Of course, all this can only be done in secret, and it is good to be as usual on the surface. Maybe the man will have a second move. Ning Shangmo said aloud.
Ming lightly nodded when he heard this: "Secretly prevent me from agreeing, it is my own people After careful consideration, I feel that I still have to reserve my opinion, after all, it may also be the remnants left by Tuoba Yanling or Chu Yue." ”
Ning Shangmo nodded in response, "Let's wait and see." ”
Leng Qingrong and Yun Yishu took the initiative to ask Ying, pretending to be palace maids and eunuchs to squat in the palace to arrest the poisoners who might act again.
And Ning Shangmo and the others went home to rest.
Although they returned to the Prime Minister's Mansion, Ning Shangmo and Ming Qingyan were both worried.
The people who poisoned the royal banquet didn't know who it was, and they didn't know when they would do something more serious to the palace, so they were all worried.
"Ugh." Ning Shangmo couldn't help but sigh.
Ming Qingyan hurriedly persuaded: "Madam, don't think about it, there are Brother Leng in the palace." You can rest assured, always sighing and thinking about it will affect the baby's mood. ”
Ning Shangmo sighed lightly again: "How can I not worry? The palace is full of my relatives, and I can't afford any of them to have an accident. ”
"None of us want anyone to happen in the palace. Haven't you already laid a net? As long as that person dares to strike again, he will definitely not escape from our palms, and you can rest in peace. Ming said lightly, and could only comfort her with a good voice.
Ning Shangmo nodded, said no more, and went back to the room to rest.
The next morning, she hadn't woken up.
was quarreled by a voice, "Miss, Miss, something is wrong." ”
Ning Shangmo sat up from his sleep and asked in a loud voice, "What's wrong?" ”
Ming Qingyan beside her also woke up, and muttered dissatisfiedly: "This bamboo leaf, you shouldn't be in a panic anymore, isn't the sky falling?" It made her so panicked that she was babbling early in the morning. Mo'er, don't worry about her, there won't be any big deal. ”
As he spoke, he also subconsciously reached out to Laning Shangmo.
But I don't want Ning Shangmo to get out of bed in his middle coat already in his middle coat, where can he still catch it? He couldn't help but shake his head and sigh.
Outside, Ning Shangmo asked the panting bamboo leaf, "Tell me quickly, what's going on?" ”
Zhu Ye replied in shock: "All the small animals in our house are dead. ”
"All the critters?" Ning Shangmo asked incomprehensibly.
"Yes, yes, it's the birds, the cats and the dogs, they're all dead." Takeba nodded in response.
Ning Shangmo's face couldn't help but sink, he couldn't imagine that something had happened to this Prime Minister's Mansion, so he ordered in a deep voice: "Take me to see it quickly." ”
So saying, he walked out.
"Wait, ma'am, put on your coat and go." Ming Qingyan took Ning Shangmo's overskirt and said loudly.
Ning Shangmo looked at the middle coat on his body, reached out to take the skirt, put it on, and then hurriedly walked out.
On the road in the house, you can see the bodies of small animals everywhere, such as mice, all kinds of small insects, birds, cats and dogs.
The people all gathered together in twos and threes to discuss, with a look of fear on their faces.
It was terrible that all living things in the house, except for people, died overnight.
Ming Qingyu walked over, and Ning Shangmo asked aloud, "Can you find out the reason?" ”
The two shook their heads and replied, "There is no problem with the water source, and there can be no problem with the food in the kitchen." I don't know what caused it, no one noticed the abnormality last night, and I woke up in the morning to find it. ”
Ning Shangmo nodded when he heard this, and continued to ask out loud: "Is there any movement in the palace?" ”
Ming Qing said loudly: "There is no movement in the palace, I went to inquire just now." ”
Ming Qingyan couldn't help but say out loud when he heard this: "It's really hard to prevent, this is a game of playing with us." The palace took precautions, but it turned out to be in our house. I guessed right, it must have something to do with them. ”
Of course, Ning Shangmo knew who he was talking about, referring to Chu Yuetuo and Bayan Ling.
She couldn't help but wonder, is it them? They have all been brought back to China by their own families, can they make trouble again?
However, after thinking about it carefully, she felt that Chu Yue was unlikely, and Prince Xiliang and his wife would definitely escort him back to Xiliang. And Borg and Tuoba Hongyu are afraid that they will not be able to bring Tuoba Yanling back to Nade City, and they will definitely be escaped by Tuoba Yanling. So could it be that Tuoba Yanling came to the Daling Imperial City again?
Thinking like this, she couldn't help but sneer: "If that's the case, it's not because of you?" ”
Ming sighed lightly: "How innocent am I? Let's not discuss these meaningless things now, but think about how to catch the troublemakers. ”
Ning Shangmo nodded and said loudly: "I have a good way." ”
Ming asked softly, "What's the best way?" ”
Ning Shangmo beckoned to him, and Ming lightly pressed his ear close to her lips.
What happened in the Prime Minister's Mansion soon spread to the palace.
Yan Nanhao immediately sent Leng Qingrong to the Prime Minister's Mansion and put him in charge of the security of the Prime Minister's Mansion.
Ming said lightly, but asked Leng Qingrong to go back to the palace, saying that the safety of the Prime Minister's Mansion could be guaranteed by themselves. The safety of the palace is paramount, and he says that if nothing else, it is likely that they will catch the perpetrator.
Leng Qingrong saw that what he said was very sure, so he no longer insisted, returned to the palace, and told the emperor what he said.
For the next two days, the palace of the Prime Minister's Mansion was safe, and nothing else happened.
In this way, Ning Shangmo was even more sure that he had made a mistake in judgment, and Ming was right. The perpetrator should be Tuoba Yanling, and her goal is very clear, which is the palace and the prime minister's mansion.
I can't imagine that she really escaped from the hands of Tuoba Hongyu and Borg.
Ning Shangmo couldn't help but sneer in his heart, Tuoba Yanling, since I let you go once but still don't know what to do, and challenge my bottom limit again and again, then if I catch you again, don't blame me for being ruthless.
After another three days, the Imperial Palace Prime Minister's Mansion and even the Daling Imperial City were still safe and sound.
But they don't dare to slack off, for fear that when they relax their vigilance, something unexpected will happen, and it will be too late to regret it.
But at such a time, the Prime Minister actually issued an invitation to celebrate the four months of Ning Shangmo's pearl fetus and held a feast.
Gonggong Hong put the invitation on Yan Nanhao's table.
Yan Nanhao was very puzzled and looked at the invitation and asked aloud: "What the hell is Ming Qingyan doing with Mo'er?" When it's too late to hide, they want to have a big feast? Not afraid that something at the royal banquet will happen again? ”
Gonggong Hong shook his head and replied: "The old slave doesn't know either, it's a post sent in from outside." Why don't you ask? ”
Yan Nanhao heard this, was silent for a moment, nodded and responded: "Okay, it's okay for you to go to the Prime Minister's Mansion to investigate." If you can do it, you won't do it, and it's not a child's full moon wine, but it's just four months pregnant, what's there to celebrate? The full moon wine of my little prince has not been put on the table, and the 100-day wine is also going to be exempted. The most important thing is that the child can grow up well, and there is no need to engage in some gimmicks. ”
Gonggong Hong bowed down and replied: "The emperor's holy order, the slave will convey all the emperor's words to His Royal Highness the Prime Minister and the eldest princess." ”
Yan Nanhao waved at him and nodded in response, "Okay, you can go." ”
Gonggong Hong came out of the palace, did not dare to delay for a moment, and went straight to the Prime Minister's Mansion.
People come and go in front of the Prime Minister's Mansion, and there is a festive and lively atmosphere.
Gonggong Hong couldn't help but ask the doorman in surprise: "Isn't the banquet not today?" Why is it so lively? ”
The person on the door replied with a smile: "My family Prime Minister has been passed down for eight generations, and now the Prime Minister's wife is four months pregnant, my family is very happy, and tomorrow will have a big feast to celebrate, and there will be many relatives and friends to send off the good news today." ”
Gonggong Hong couldn't help but face slightly gloomy when he heard this, when did Her Royal Highness the eldest princess and Xiangye become so fond of vanity? Is there anyone who is the successor of the eighth generation of single transmission? But who can guarantee that the fetus will be born safely? Even if he was born safely, who can guarantee that it will be a boy?
Since ancient times, there has never been a celebration before birth, and it is a full moon wine or a hundred days of wine. Now that it's really a scene, the Prime Minister is actually pregnant with April wine for a big show.
He followed his servants to the inner chamber.
I saw that Ning Shangmo and Ming Qingyan were surrounded by a group of people, and they were very happy to accept their congratulations. On the couch next to it, the desk was full of gifts.
Seeing this situation, he was even more unhappy and coughed.
Ning Shangmo and Ming looked up to see that it was him, and they both hurriedly saluted respectfully, "I didn't know that it was Gonggong Hong who arrived, and it was really a sin to miss the distance." ”
Gonggong Hong sneered in a thin voice: "Xiangye and His Royal Highness the eldest princess, when the spring breeze is proud, how can you see our family?" Is it the wrong time for our family to disturb the two of you? ”
Ning Shangmo heard that he hurriedly laughed and said: "Gonggong Hong laughed when he saw it, and he talked lightly about him, what kind of dream did he have yesterday, saying that the old lady told him in a dream that the Ming family has nine generations of descendants, and there are two sons in one child, let him hold a feast to celebrate." Ahem, if it weren't for me, how could it be? What woman can't have a baby? What is there to be happy about? ”
Although she said so, the expression on her face was unconcealed with pride.
A room full of guests couldn't help but exclaim, "Twins?" But it's all boys? ”
Ning Shangmo nodded and smiled: "Exactly, but it hurt me." ”
As she spoke, she casually looked around, and found that there was a woman with a smile on her face that hid displeasure, she hurriedly removed her eyes, still smiling proudly and proudly, as if she was a great hero.
