Chapter 523: Becoming a King and Defeating a Villain
It is said that the moon is dark and the wind is high on the night of killing, but tonight, even if the moon is bright and the stars are sparse and there is no trace of wind, many people are destined to lose their lives.
Peng Ji, who was about to make a move, gathered his cronies and secret stakes overnight, and when they got together to conspire and discuss, a stick of incense quietly entered through the crack in the window.
At this moment, the discussion was extremely serious and intense, and no one noticed the existence of this incense stick.
They chatted and chatted, and one by one they became unconscious, and when everyone inevitably fell to the ground, Peng Ji also fell, and in a daze, he saw a person come in and stand beside him, but his eyelids were really sticky.
When there was a change in the Peng Mansion, there was also action in the Chu Palace, and some of the little eunuchs who were written on the list were covered by their mouths and noses and their necks while they were asleep; Others were led to a secluded place and killed with sticks.
In short, the corpses of eunuchs and palace maids were thrown into the deep pit dug overnight in the imperial garden.
At the same time, several leaders of the Praetorian Guard were also put down by some drugs one after another, but they were hastily taken away at night.
The night was so long, but the hidden danger was eliminated.
When the night dissipated and the sun rose in the east, Peng Yu woke up.
He was still in Peng's Mansion, and even the house maintained his appearance before he fell into a coma, but there was no one to discuss in the house, only Mu Junwu sat opposite, looking at him expressionlessly.
Peng Yu paused, slowly sat up straight, and suddenly smiled after being silent for a long time: "I'm really confused, I didn't even notice that this was a game." β
"The bureau is only greedy people, you have been holding a knife for too long, it is time to rest." Mu Junwu stood up after saying that: "I will give the dignity of the abbot, whether the Peng family wants the future or not, you can decide it yourself!" β
Without more words, he walked out of the room.
Peng Ji looked at the back of the departing figure, only to feel that the darkness was enveloping him, and he could no longer escape.
He lost the bet.
"Win or lose, hehe." He muttered, closed his eyes, and his face was as dead as ashes.
β¦β¦ 5 days later......
After a string of crackling firecrackers exploded, people bustled into the brothers' building.
Today is a good day for the opening of the Brother Building, with a full crowd of guests, and the storyteller on the stage, which made a shocking sound.
Tang Liuliang stood upstairs and watched the storyteller's eyebrows flutter, and he shook his head excitedly.
"It's time for the feast!" Tang Lin greeted him, dragged him into the private room, and immediately Mu Junwu handed over a bowl of wine.
When Tang Liuliang took it, Chu Xuanzheng on the table confirmed with Tang Xiao beside him: "Are you sure they will really be fine?" β
"Don't worry, I have removed seventy percent of the toxins in Hua Rou's body according to the method recorded in the book, as long as she is no longer poisoned in the future, she will be fine, not to mention, I will also remove the poison in Junwu's body, if there is anything, I can deal with it."
After Chu Xuan nodded when he heard this, he asked curiously: "Can you teach me this poison removal technique?" β
Tang Xiao didn't answer, but poured himself a bowl of wine and beckoned everyone to drink together.
After a bowl of wine, Tang Liuliang slapped the table: "I said Mu Junwu, are the thieves in your house clean?" Brother Lonely and I ran back desperately, and said that we would help you clear the thief, but you actually finished it? Isn't there a fish that slipped through the net for the two of us to perform? β
Mu Junwu said with a smile: "Originally, I wanted to rely on you, but the mountains and rivers were turbulent and the people were uneasy, so they could only deal with it when the sparks were not burning, you can rest assured." β
Tang Xiao said cautiously: "Be careful of Peng Ji's resurgence again." β
"He is already sick in bed, and the doctor has diagnosed him, saying that he has half a year to live at most."
"What about the disobedient courtiers?" Tang Liuliang was not at ease.
"Without the lead, they can't set off the wind and waves, not to mention that they were all scared out of their courage that night, and they should be cautious within five years."
Tang Lin nodded reassuringly: "That's good." β
Mu Junwu looked at Tang Lin at this time: "In the future, you and Liuliang will stay in this brother's building, you are wronged." β
"Don't be wronged, I'm a dead man now, although he has dismantled the heavenly cannon, but this thing will be watched by the world, only if we all disappear, can we exchange for peace. But ......" Tang Lin looked at Hua Rou: "Hua Rou, are you really not the master of the door anymore?" β
"The Iron Army has been completed, in fact, I can stop the world without me, and the Tang Gate will be relocated in the future, and this matter will be handed over to Tang Xiao, or it will be easier for him to be the master of the door, so let them think that I have also fallen...... And I'm ......"
Hua Rou said and looked at Chu Xuan: "Chu Xuan and I have already taken down the shop next door to the brothers' building, and we plan to open a medical hall and do what we can." β
"Hey, hey, hey!" Tang Liuliang's eyes widened: "You don't want to be a princess and come out to open a medical hall?" Mu Junwu agreed? β
"Why didn't I say yes?" Mu Junwu looked at Hua Rou with love in his eyes: "Her willingness to be by my side is the greatest happiness, and I also hope that she will do something happy." β
Sacrifice and fulfillment, he knew what Hua Rou gave up for him, and he naturally wanted to give her space and let her do what she wanted.
Hua Rou smiled and took Mu Junwu's hand and looked at Tang Liuliang: "Liuliang, don't you and Tang Liang welcome me as your neighbor?" β
"How could it not be welcome? My dream is to be in a restaurant like this with my friends! β
Everyone was full of smiles when they heard this, but Hua Rou lowered her eyes and sighed: "I just don't know where Yu'er is, Junwu has obviously spread the news, but there is still no news." β
Of the six people who played together back then, there was one less Yu'er at the moment, and she was still very unsteady when she thought about it, and she always felt that she was not too cautious in what she did and spoke at the beginning, so she hurt Yu'er.
At the mention of Yu'er, Tang Lone's expression naturally became lonely, and everyone's previous excitement suddenly became a little sluggish.
"Don't do that." Seeing this, Mu Junwu reassured: "I believe that she will reunite with all of us one day." β
"Yes, yes, sooner or later, we will be reunited." Tang Liuliang said and picked up the wine jar and poured wine: "Come on, come on, drink!" Drink! For our friendship, drink and don't go home! β
If you don't get drunk, how can you do it?
Tang Xiao can't not return.
So when everyone was drunk, he silently retreatedβhe didn't want to say goodbye to any injury, so he planned to leave quietly like this, but as soon as he got downstairs, Tang Lin chased him down.
"Tang Xiao." Tang Xiao chased after him and whispered, "Yucong is in the Killer Pavilion." β
Tang Xiao was stunned for a moment, nodded clearly, and said, "Got it." He said and stretched out his hand to pat Tang Lone's shoulder: "It's up to you to protect them." β
"Don't worry, they are my friends, I will naturally protect them, but there is no me and Liuliang in the door, you have to work harder."
"Alright, I'm leaving!" Tang Xiao turned around to leave, but Tang Xiao grabbed him: "Let's say goodbye!" β
Tang Xiao shook his head, turned around and left, Tang Xiao naturally chased after him when he saw this: "I'll send you." β
They walked out one after the other in the noise.
In the private room upstairs, Tang Liuliang and Chu Xuan were fighting and drinking, excited and focused.
Hua Rou and Mu Junwu stood behind the private room, looking at each other.
"We should have sent it." Hua Rou said softly, Tang Xiao's departure, she and Mu Junwu both saw it really clearly.
"That only adds to the sadness." As soon as Mu Junwu finished speaking, he saw Hua Rou lowering her head, twitching her nose lightly, and hurriedly took her into her arms: "Like-minded people, across thousands of mountains and thousands of rivers, they are also side by side." What's more, there is no goodbye, no separation. β
In August 932, Meng Zhixiang's wife, Princess Li of Fuqing, died of illness.
In February 933, Tang Mingzong worshipped Meng Zhixiang as the king of Shu.
In the same year, Peng Yu died of illness.
