At the fork in the road to the woodland, a horse-drawn carriage is parked.

A few men in black cloaks, armed with swords, stood nearby to guard the area.

Rouge and Feiyun drove to the front with their carriages and horses, and several guards stepped forward to inspect and saw Rouge retreat a little.

Rouge and Feiyun each got out of the carriage and opened the door.

Mu Junwu was the first to get out of the car, and his eyes fell on the carriage in front of him.

Peng Lan leaned out of the carriage and said to Mu Junwu with a smile: "Shiro, no matter how anxious you are to see your father, you have to wait for me!" ”

Mu Junwu turned around when he heard this, and Peng Lan had already stretched out his hand to Mu Junwu.

Mu Junwu hesitated slightly, then raised his hand to help Peng Lan's arm.

The corners of Peng Lan's mouth twitched and got off the carriage, and a guard had stepped forward: "Childe, Miss, the master is in the car, please!" ”

"Got it." Peng Lan said and turned to look at Mu Junwu: "Let's go, Shiro." ”

Unexpectedly, Mu Junwu said at this time: "You better wait here first, there are some things you don't need to listen to." ”

Peng Lan was stunned for a moment, and then nodded: "Okay, I'll listen to Shiro." ”

At that moment, Mu Junwu turned around and entered the carriage.

Peng Lan's smile completely disappeared at this moment, and her expression was full of gloom.

As soon as Mu Junwu entered the carriage, he saw Peng Ji kneeling at the table, showing a prostrate state.

"The minister pays a visit to the son, please forgive the old minister for not being able to get off the car to see the courtesy."

Mu Junwu knelt down at the table unhurriedly before reaching out and gently lifting one of Peng Ji's arms: "Uncle Yue's gift is too heavy." ”

Peng Yu immediately straightened up, and his tone was eager: "The prince is also willing to call the old minister a father-in-law, and the old minister will not make this trip in vain." ”

Mu Junwu chuckled: "Uncle Yue's words are too early, you haven't put forward your conditions yet, how do you know if I want to allow it?" ”

Peng Yu was stunned for a moment, his eyes swept to the jade pendant on Mu Junwu's waist, and then smiled: "Childe's words have tormented the old minister!" The minister and the son are a family, and they still need to negotiate conditions to help their own family? Hahaha......"

Mu Junwu smiled and nodded: "The three words of my own family sound really kind, but I don't know ...... How much can Uncle Yue help me? ”

Peng Ji immediately said: "I have done my best to the Peng family, and I dare not slack off." ”

"It seems that I don't have to worry about the food and grass of the military horses, but I don't know ......" Mu Junwu approached Peng Ji and said: "The power of Yuezhang in the palace, can you help me?" ”

"Childe rest assured, there are already people in the palace who are dissatisfied with the power of Concubine De, if the prince needs it, the old minister will definitely install the eyes and ears for the son."

Mu Junwu squeezed Peng Ji's wrist tightly at this time and stared at Peng Ji: "Then please tell me first, my mother concubine...... How the hell did he die? ”

……

Peng Lan stood not far in front of the carriage wrapped in a cloak, her eyes gloomy.

Rouge stepped forward and said softly: "Miss, the night breeze is cold, why don't you go back to the carriage to rest first......"

"Shiro told me to wait here."

"But ......"

Peng Lan stared at the carriage not far away: "No, you have no jokes." ”

Rouge immediately fell silent and retreated.

Peng Lan raised her chin slightly.

Shiro, you want to use me to remind my father that you are a king and we are ministers, right? Well, I'll do what you want.

……

"Where did the Assassins come from?"

Peng Ji shook his head: "That person was wearing palace clothes, and after stuning a few eunuchs and guards, he fled without a clue. ”

Mu Junwu frowned when he heard this: "Stunned the eunuchs and guards? ”

"Yes, I was stunned, and when the people in the palace found out, I woke up after splashing water and pouring bean soup, and I also specially found someone to probe the wind, but no one saw the assassin's appearance clearly, and everyone was unconscious after smelling a tingling smell."

Mu Junwu's expression was thoughtful, and his words had turned: "This matter ends here...... I would like to ask my father-in-law another matter. ”

"Childe, please speak."

"There are forces from other countries infiltrating the palace, do you know this?"

……

It rained heavily for a day, mixed with lightning and thunder, raging in front of the Concubine De Palace.

From time to time, the silver light of lightning illuminated the torn drawing paper scattered in front of the bookcase in the hall, and the fragment was the tall horse she had drawn during the day.

Concubine Yuan Defei sat at the desk, clutching the silk cloth given by Zhao Jichang in her hand, her expression weak and confused.

Danqing carefully held the soup cup inside, and when he saw that the hall was so messy, he put the tray on the desk with a faint uneasiness, and then squatted on the ground to clean up the crumbs of the scroll, and whispered: "Niangniang, is there something that makes you unhappy......

Concubine Yuan Defei smiled bitterly and said to herself: "One wrong step, one wrong step, when is the end?" ”

Danqing was stunned when he heard this, and then replied softly: "The more you care, the easier it is to be coerced." ”

At this time, a flash of lightning illuminated the green tendons on Concubine Yuan Defei's forehead: "I was just eaten by him, I care!" ”

Danqing got up, put the crumbs on the table, and then pushed the soup cup to Concubine Yuan Defei's hand: "The days have to go on, Niangniang still don't be angry." ”

Concubine Yuan Defei looked at Danqing at this time: "Go and prepare a sesame oil cloth for me." ”

"Niangniang is going to Baoguo Temple to pray for blessings?"

Concubine Yuan closed her eyes, and Danqing didn't say much when she saw this, so she went down to prepare with interest.

……

Tang Jiu'er stood in front of the window outside the west wing, looking at the sleeping Hua Rou through the window, motionless.

"I'm curious, who will you choose?"

Tang Jiu'er heard the voice of questioning behind her, turned to look at Tang Lei who was speaking, and said, "The door master said that she belongs to Tang Xiao." ”

"What about you?"

"What the master means is what I mean."

Tang Lei sneered: "I don't believe it, who is a mother these days, and her heart is not for her daughter." ”

Tang Jiu'er's body trembled, frowning and staring at Tang Lei: "What nonsense are you talking about!" ”

Tang Lei said firmly: "She is a celestial veiner, she can only be your daughter." ”

Tang Jiu'er's eyelids drooped at this time: "Since you know that the mother will be towards her daughter, then you should understand that she is safe and sound, which is what I care about the most." ”

"Yes, then you should help her ascend to the position of the master of the door, only when she gains power, can she be truly safe."

Tang Jiu'er turned her head to look at Hua Rou in the room: "Her life shouldn't be up to me. ”

"I warn you, if it's too late, you'll miss the opportunity."

"If you miss it, it's her life......" Tang Jiu'er turned her head to look at Tang Lei again: "Since you're back, why don't you stop?" Haven't you already let go of what you want for Feiyan? ”

"You and I both know that the master won't let me live long."

Tang Jiu'er reluctantly comforted: "She is not as ruthless as you think. ”

Tang Lei laughed: "She may not be absolutely ruthless, but for the safety of the Tang Sect, she will never allow a betrayer like me to exist, even if I ...... Lost armor. ”

"As long as you stay well, she won't touch you again, the Tang Sect needs our heart, otherwise no one can protect it."

"That's it!" Tang Lei said unhappily: "I'm here to persuade you, not to listen to your persuasion of me, if you don't listen, then that's all you say." ”

Tang Lei turned around and strode away, and after Tang Jiu'er turned his head and looked at Hua Rou for a while, he also left slowly.
