Chapter 116: A Conspiracy
The corners of Luo Qianhuai's lips hooked: "I thought that Zhu Niang came here at this time to solve my doubts, not to be perfunctory." β
Zhu Niang raised her eyebrows, glanced at her seriously, and then chuckled: "Mrs. Luo is really smart, no wonder she can be so valued by her son." β
Luo Qianhuai breathed a sigh of relief. She felt that something was not quite right since last night, and Zhu Niang was simply too cooperative with her. But at that time, she didn't have time to think about it, but Wei Cang had always acted steadily, and since he promised her to investigate, it was impossible for him to leave without saying a word.
Zhu Niang happened to arrive at this juncture, and she couldn't afford not to think about that place.
Therefore, Zhu Niang must be Mo Gongzi's person, and this Mingyue Building is also the same.
She had been thinking about it before, Mo Gongzi's great reputation in the rivers and lakes, and he had a sign of righteousness and squandering money, which showed that Ping Suli spent money lavishly. But there are still so many elite dead soldiers behind him, and there is no shortage of money anywhere.
But this money does not come from the tide of the sea, he must have a steady stream of wealth. The Mingyue Building in front of me is probably one of them, and I think that Mo Gongzi has many similar industries in other places in Dayu.
"Time is pressing, don't sell it." Luo Qianhuai pulled Zhu Niang into his room, closed the door, and asked the question like a cannon:
"Where are Meng Juxia and Gongzi now? What about Meng Luo and Lu Feiren, are they with them or are they still in Mingyue Tower? β
Zhu Niang was stunned for a moment, then covered her mouth and laughed: "You ask so many questions at once, but where do I start?" β
"It's urgent. It is related to the safety of Meng Juxia and Gongzi. Luo Qianhuai was quite serious: "I don't have time to joke with you." β
As soon as she said this, Zhu Niang also put away the smoky and flattering style, and quickly explained what she knew.
The person arranged by Wei Cang last night was Zhu Niang. She didn't dare to slack off, and arranged for someone to monitor the room of the two in Mingyue Building, and sent a few people who were active and quick to keep an eye on them at any time.
I thought it was foolproof, but I didn't know that Meng Opera received news this morning, saying that the tomb of his deceased wife was dug up, the coffin was broken, and the things that should accompany the funeral were destroyed and abandoned, and the scene was very ugly.
Meng Ju and his wife are very affectionate, and they have not continued since she went, and after hearing about it, they were overwhelmed with grief and indignation, and they informed Mo Gongzi as soon as possible.
Mo Gongzi has also been taken care of by his sister-in-law since he was a child, so it is naturally impossible to stand idly by.
"So Meng Juxia's right-hand man Lu Fei, as well as his righteous daughter Meng Luo, naturally went all the way?" Luo Qianhuai sighed.
"Yes." Zhu Niang nodded as expected: "But you don't have to worry, Wei Daxia hinted before he left that he would personally stare at the two of them." β
"Hopefully. It's just that I always feel that this happened too coincidentally, and I always feel as if it was part of the whole conspiracy. Luo Qianhuai frowned and thought for a while, and suddenly remembered something: "By the way, what about Pei Jianzong and Zhang Qing?" β
"Pei Jianzong was extremely happy because Zhang Jianzong was in good health, and it happened that a friend held a banquet in Maoling to celebrate his birthday, so he dragged him with him."
"So coincidentally?" Luo Qianhuai felt that the weirdness in his heart was even stronger. Zhang Qing only recovered yesterday, and it stands to reason that he should recuperate for a few days. And even if he wants to go to Maoling, he should say goodbye to himself before parting, there is no reason to leave without saying a word, right?
"Pei Jianzong and Meng Juxia, aren't they friends? Why didn't he help with such a big event as the tomb robbery of Meng Juxia's deceased wife? β
"As far as I know, although Pei Jianzong and Meng Juxia have a friendship, they are actually not very deep. The most important thing is that when Meng Juxia received the news this morning, the two Sword Sects of Pei and Zhang had already set off. β
"Then do you know where the mausoleum of Meng Juxia's wife is located?"
"It's in the northwest of Changling, about fifty miles away." Zhu Niang replied and glanced at her again: "If Mrs. Luo wants to go, the concubine can arrange a car to send you." β
Luo Qianhuai felt a mess in his heart. On the one hand, he felt that he had already mentioned it with all his heart, and there was no need to stir it into this muddy water, and on the other hand, he was inexplicably uneasy.
Then she found a reason not to stay out of it.
If they were really killed by those people, Meng Ju and Mo Gongzi would be finished, and he, a subordinate who had crossed the bright road, would definitely be eliminated. Even if the other party is willing to let himself go, if he wants to stay in Changling to practice medicine in the future, it must be difficult. On the other hand, if the two of them are safe, she will have a lot of benefits.
Needless to say, Mo Gongzi is his own backer; And Meng Juxia, as the head of the world's descendants, has to admit his personal feelings, even if he walks sideways in this Changling Mausoleum, I am afraid that no one will dare to care.
She doesn't care whether Meng Juxia is loyal or traitorous, she only cares about herself...... Sure enough, a selfish person!
"In this way, I thanked Zhu Niang."
Zhu Niang is reliable, and so are the grooms and carriages arranged. Although the two horses looked inconspicuous, their feet were quite fast, and before noon, they had reached the foot of the mountain.
"Follow this path uphill, there is a pavilion halfway up the mountain, and when you see it, you will turn back along the northeast and keep walking."
Luo Qianhuai thanked the coachman and walked alone. The path on the hill should have been walked by many people, and it was not rugged and difficult, and she climbed up for half an hour, and sure enough, she saw an octagonal vermilion lacquer pavilion.
The pavilion is built halfway up the mountain, but to the northeast is a slope, and there seems to be a valley below, but it is hidden by layers of branches, and it is not really visible.
This section of the mountain road is a big challenge for Luo Qianhuai's physical fitness. She rested for a while, but her heart became more and more unstable, so she simply stood up and continued on her way.
It was already noon in the pavilion, and the sun shone down vertically, dazzling, and she walked out of the pavilion, and glanced at the northeast at random, and was dazzled by a dazzling light.
She knew something was wrong, and looked at it from a different angle with half-squinted eyes, but she vaguely saw a few more flashes of lightβa light that was unique to metal.
There was an ambush. Those people didn't seem to be just counting on Meng Luo alone, but left something else.
This is not what Luo Qianhuai is good at, she instinctively wants to retreat.
But as she thought before, she couldn't retreat. At the very least, they have to warn Mo Gongzi and them.
It's a pity that the system is not powerful enough, but she was upgraded at this time, otherwise she could still incarnate as Ultraman and help fight a wave of monsters.
At this moment, the system popped up: "The upgrade is complete, and the system reboot is successful." Use the shortcut system to reach the pinnacle of life! Version 1.2 of the shortcut system is here to help! β
"The features of version 1.2 have changed from version 1.1 as follows:
1. Optimized the charging module, and increased the charging efficiency and the upper limit time of enforcement;
2. Fixed the bug that multi-task execution error occurred when the energy was insufficient;
3. Improved the reward withdrawal function and clarified the setting of efficiency priority;
4. The reward library of various grades has been fine-tuned to meet the needs of a higher level. β
Luo Qianhuai read the upgrade guide word by word. The part of the charging module, because it is closely related to the mandatory execution time of the system, is naturally happy to see it. Just looking back, her gaze suddenly froze, and a hint of a not so good premonition appeared in her heart.
"System, what's going on with the efficiency priority setting of reward withdrawal, can you help explain?"
"Maybe I don't understand it right, it can't be what I thought it would be, would it?!"
The system did not answer her question directly. The emotionless electronic speaker plays:
"Continue to issue the next and lower grade rewards as follows."
