Chapter 69: News
Peng Lan's sudden appearance startled all three people in the room, but Peng Yu didn't speak, just looked at Peng Lan.
"Father, please give me another chance, I will definitely make everything as you wish!"
Peng Lan knelt on the ground and prayed sincerely, but Peng Yu smiled and said, "You are my daughter, leaving the house at this time, do you have less eyes to stare at me?" ”
"I ......"
"Get out!" Peng Yu stopped looking at her.
Seeing this, Peng Lan hurriedly said, "Father, I really ......"
"Get out!" The sound of the voice came to her head, and she stopped Peng Lan's efforts, she couldn't help but shudder, and got up and retreated in disappointment.
"Sir, don't be angry, the eldest lady also wants to ......"
Peng Ji raised his hand to stop the butler's words, and then glanced at Peng Lan's back: "It's cool at night, give the eldest lady a gray squirrel cloak." ”
Peng Shou was stunned for a moment, and then a look of joy welled up in his eyes: "Yes, master." ”
……
In the palace of King Chu, the sullen Ma Xisheng and Zhao Jichang walked into the long corridor when they returned to the dormitory.
On both sides of this road are walls several feet high, and no one walks on them, nor does anyone serve them.
Ma Xisheng suddenly stood up at this time and turned to look at Zhao Jichang: "King Qi is missing, why hasn't Peng Ji broken the marriage contract with King Qi?" ”
Zhao Jichang blinked: "Xu is still thinking." ”
Ma Xi pouted unhappily when he heard this: "Hmph, loneliness is the king!" Keep an eye on it! ”
"Understood!"
Ma Xisheng flicked his sleeves and took two steps forward and stopped: "Why didn't you let Lone send troops directly just now?" ”
Zhao Jichang said unhurriedly: "King, aren't you looking for King Qi?" ”
"Find! But Wu Yueruo came to commit ......"
"King!" Zhao Jichang interrupted Ma Xisheng's words and looked at him with a warning posture and eyes: "It's best not to be arbitrary in everything, it's better to discuss it with the right minister." ”
Ma Xisheng frowned: "You have to discuss everything with him, Lone is the king!" ”
"Of course you are the king, but ......" Zhao Jichang's expression became a little arrogant: "You also have to listen to your father!" ”
A touch of anger swelled up on Ma Xisheng's originally impatient face, but he couldn't speak, he took a few heavy breaths, and then flicked his sleeves and strode forward.
Although Zhao Jichang followed him, his body was not as low as before.
It was night, the cold night wind blew the branches whining, and no one was walking on the street, but at the entrance of the alley where the back door of Peng's house was located, two little girls were staring at the back door of Peng's house while warming their hands.
Suddenly, a man in black landed behind them from the sky, knocking them unconscious before they could react.
The two men fell to the ground unconscious, while the man in black hurried to the back door and let out the cricket cries.
The back door of Peng's mansion opened, and Peng Lan, who was wearing a gray squirrel cloak, led the horse out with Rouge and several retinues, and then turned over on the horse, and the group gradually disappeared into the night.
The back door of Peng's mansion was closed again.
……
The CD Mansion located in Shu is overcast in winter, and it is rare to see a sunny day, and when it is difficult to meet a clear sky one day, Meng Zhixiang put down his busy affairs and accompanied his wife Li for a walk in the garden.
Li is a princess, when he married him Zhenzhen'er's next marriage, at that time many people said that he was lucky and climbing, and he also thought that the wife who married into the door would be arrogant and domineering, but Li was gentle and lovely, virtuous and generous, and never disliked him at all, let alone the princess's shelf, but won his respect.
Seven years ago, he and his wife were stationed in Beijing (Taiyuan Mansion), but unexpectedly his best friend Guo Chongtao was slandered, and the emperor panicked.
Jiannan and Huaixi, Guanzhong is fundamental, and this Jiannan area is the emperor's retreat.
Seeing that the Shu land that had just been recovered was in a mess, the emperor was in a hurry, so he had to send a trustworthy person to take it back? So I thought of him, the son-in-law of the Li family, and sent him.
Meng Zhixiang rushed thousands of miles to Xichuan, at this time Guo Chongtao had been unjustly killed, he took the army and horses to clean up the remnants of the army, suppressed and captured Kang Yanxiao, just effective, but did not expect the emperor to die in the Xingjiaomen change, Li Siyuan was proclaimed emperor.
He waited for the opportunity, the opportunity for him to achieve great things and display his ambitions, and he naturally got busy.
Five spring and autumn seasons have passed, and he has not returned home, nor has he seen the Li family again, but his development and growth have made Li Siyuan worried.
So at the beginning of last year, Li came to CD with his family, obviously the new emperor's intention was to use her to restrain his growing ambitions, reminding him that he was a courtier of the Later Tang Dynasty and his own family.
I don't know if the lovesickness that I haven't seen in these years has tired Li's mind, or the cold, damp and hot of the CD Mansion have eroded Li's weak body, she has been wheezing and coughing all day long, and it is difficult to stop, and she is getting thinner and thinner.
Today's weather is fine, Li is in a good mood, dressed gracefully and luxuriously, quite delicate, but in the end he is weak, and he coughs twice from time to time and is difficult to suppress, and he is so sick that it makes people feel distressed.
Meng Zhixiang took pity on her, and when he saw this, he asked Li's personal maid Dongzhu worriedly: "Are you taking all the medicine?" ”
"Five decoctions a day, the princess eats them all."
"Why don't you see it?"
Li Shi turned his head at this time and said softly: "Is the master worried about me?" It's okay, it's estimated that if you cough for another ten days and half a month, it's fine. ”
Meng Zhixiang nodded, took off the cloak on his body and put another layer on the Li family, and when he was tying the belt, Song Zhi hurriedly ran into the garden, probably saw the Li family, and did not dare to step forward and waited from a distance.
Li Shi saw Song Zhi, a touch of helplessness flashed in her eyes, Meng Zhixiang noticed his wife's expression, turned around and saw that it was Song Zhi, and said softly: "Madam, wait for me." After that, he went to Song Zhi's side.
Li's eyes flowed, and the helplessness in his eyes was even stronger.
"Master, I just received two messages, one is from the State of Chu, saying that the troops sent by the State of Chu have turned Nanchuan County upside down and have not found King Qi."
"What about the other one?" Meng Zhixiang was talking to Song Zhi, but the person looked at Li and smiled at her.
"Our people have killed a total of eleven people suspected of praying for the king in the past two months...... There is also a team of people, who have been sent out for so long, and they haven't replied yet......"
"Oh? What is the last position? ”
"Toutuo Mountain."
The smile on Meng Zhixiang's face suddenly stopped, and he looked back at Song Zhi with unbelievable surprise in his eyes: "Toutuo Mountain? Isn't that under the jurisdiction of my Shu land? ”
"That's right, and it's close to the Tang Gate."
Meng Zhixiang raised his eyebrows and smiled: "This is really good news!" Go, send a message to the Tang Sect, find him out, and get rid of him! ”
Song Zhi was stunned: "What does the master mean ......"
"No news is news, this cunning boy Bacheng is hiding in the Tang Gate."
Song Zhi had an epiphany: "The little one will go to pass the message." ”
Song Zhi retreated, Meng Zhixiang also returned to Li's side, Li waved his hand, and Dongzhu took his subordinates to retreat far away.
"What kind of letter did the master get, so happy?" Li had a smile on his face, but there was a lot of sadness in his eyes.
Meng Zhixiang moved to sort out the cloak for the Li family, and said softly: "The little fox I have been thinking about for a long time is about to be caught." ”
