Gu Shenwei had been observing for half an hour, Shangguan Fei was a little anxious when he waited, he really wanted to tell the Dragon King, there was nothing to worry about, the old mansion of the Meng Mansion was not Jinpeng Castle, and there were not so many killer guards around his mother.

Lady Meng lived in a small courtyard in a corner of the garden, and all the guards—the Meng family's swordsmen and a handful of Jinpeng Castle's killers—patrolled the perimeter, looking like everything was normal and decent, not like a hidden trap.

Gu Shenwei didn't go in right away out of pure habit, and after another group of guards walked by, he finally nodded.

Shangguan Fei was just about to get up, but was grabbed by the Dragon King, and immediately understood the meaning, the Dragon King wanted to go in with him, Shangguan Fei had some doubts about this, it was Mrs. Meng, his mother, it didn't matter if he broke in in the middle of the night, but the Dragon King was a man with no relatives and no reason, and he remembered Shangguan Hong's lesson vividly.

However, Shangguan Fei only hesitated for a while, and was relieved in his heart, this is the Dragon King, although no one can understand the relationship with his sister, but he will never have a ghost in his heart.

There are only three rooms in the small courtyard, two of which are empty, and there are people living in the middle, and for various reasons, Mrs. Meng's pomp here is far inferior to that of Jinpeng Castle.

Shangguan Fei was sentimental, came to the door, and knocked a few times regularly, this was the code when he met his mother in Nancheng, and it was estimated that she could prepare in advance here.

The Dragon King was very close to him, less than three steps away, Shangguan Fei was slightly surprised, this was neither like the Dragon King's usual practice, nor did it conform to the rules when the killer cooperated.

"Who?" After a while, a woman's voice came from inside the room.

"Aunt Tong, it's me. Shangguan Fei whispered.

Aunt Tong was originally Mrs. Meng's personal maid, serving her for many years, but because of the whim of King Dubu, she was sold by the hostess to Nancheng as a maid, and when Shangguan Fei first returned to Biyucheng, it was through her secret connection with her mother, because of this credit, she returned to Mrs. Meng.

The door opened a crack, and it was not immediately released, "Who is this person?"

"Dragon King...... The messenger sent to see the Mother. ”

"Nonsense. Aunt Tong's voice looked very dissatisfied, "In the middle of the night, it is dangerous for you to come to Beicheng, and you even brought a strange man, how did you get it out?"

"No, everyone is strict-mouthed, how can it be spread?" Shangguan Fei was a little anxious, the longer he waited outside, the greater the possibility of exposure.

"You come in first, let him wait outside for a while, Madame is dressing, and now you can't see outsiders. ”

"Hmm. Shangguan Fei's right foot was already off the ground, he turned his head to look at the Dragon King, and then stopped, the Dragon King's expression was very resolute, and he was never allowed to leave within three steps, "Uh, I'll wait with the Dragon King." ”

The door was open, and Gu Shenwei saw a pair of eyes that looked old even in the night, and the woman was hesitating.

There was a soft cough from inside the room, and Aunt Tong closed the door.

Shangguan Fei smiled awkwardly at the Dragon King.

The two retreated into the shadows of the corner, and the dragon king made another exception, and instead of distancing himself and guarding each other with his partner, he stayed together......

The Dragon King didn't believe Mrs. Meng, Shangguan Fei was not only apprehensive, but also a little annoyed, he had been in the Dragon King for so long, and his mother had clearly expressed her support, but he still couldn't be trusted.

The surname of Dragon King Tian is suspicious, even if his sister leads the way in person, it is probably the same, Shangguan Fei can only comfort himself with this thought.

The door opened again, and Aunt Tong walked out, glanced at the "Dragon King's Messenger", and went to another room.

There was a dim lamp in the room, and a thick felt blanket hung on the window to block the leakage of light, and Mrs. Meng sat at the table with one arm on the table, "Sure enough, the dragon king is coming, and he can't meet him from afar, forgive his sins." ”

What surprised Gu Shenwei was that after so many things, Mrs. Meng's appearance and surname had not changed from a few years ago, and even in the face of her beloved son's protector, she refused to make a humble expression.

Shangguan Fei was nervous, the Dragon King and his mother were both people he respected and feared, and he didn't know which side to stand on, "The current situation is chaotic, and the Dragon King has to be careful and come to visit at night, hoping that his mother can understand." ”

Shangguan Fei decided to stand on the side of the Dragon King, and it was always easier to ask for his mother's forgiveness afterwards.

"That's how it should be, people who came out of the stone castle were prepared for this kind of thing. Madame Meng smiled and nodded slightly to the Dragon King, "The Dragon King has sheltered my sons and daughters, and I am very happy to be able to thank the Great Grace in person today." ”

"The Dragon King is very good to me, and he also teaches me martial arts...... Shangguan Fei felt that his mother was not very enthusiastic, and regretted it as soon as he said it, the martial arts taught by the Dragon King were not comfortable, and it was not common for the Dragon King to see his mother, so he shut up and silently stepped aside, not too far away from the Dragon King.

"That's not a great kindness, I protect Shangguan Fei because he is useful to me. ”

The Dragon King's answer broke the fixed routine, Shangguan Fei became more and more embarrassed, he knew the Dragon King's surname, but in front of his mother, he always hoped that the atmosphere would be harmonious.

Mrs. Meng and her son's reaction was different, and they stood up, "The Dragon King said it well, this is like what the people of Jinpeng Fort should say, let's not learn the true hypocrisy of the Central Plains people and the fake arrogance of the Beiting people, I also wanted to meet with the Dragon King, I hope to ask in person, how does the Dragon King plan to deal with the people of the Shangguan family?"

Gu Shenwei was often asked about this matter, and he already had a standard answer, "Shunchang rebelled, as long as he did not follow Shangguan Fa and the Dragon Army as enemies, he would be forgiven by me." ”

"What about the people who helped the Dragon King defeat the Dubu King and capture Jinpeng Castle?"

"In terms of meritorious deeds, we will treat all the soldiers of the Dragon Army equally. ”

"Okay, what credit does my son have to make to inherit the king's title?"

Shangguan Fei blushed, Dubu King was a name he wanted and feared at the same time, "Mother, the Dragon King has already agreed......"

"No, I'm going to hear him with my own ears. ”

Gu Shenwei pondered for a moment, "When the employer who assassinated the Gu family, I wanted his name and relevant records, and with this, I can exchange it for the title of Dubu King, but as I told Shangguan Fei before, you can't get Jinpeng Castle." ”

"I'm not interested in the Stone Castle. Lady Meng looked satisfied, "The Dragon King can occupy Jinpeng Castle, and the new Dubu King will continue to accept the protection of the top and assume the corresponding responsibilities. ”

"Good. ”

Although it was only a confirmation of the existing agreement, Shangguan Fei was very excited, as if he had another layer of reassurance, "Mother, you can get the record, right?"

"Ongoing. "Mrs. Meng won't make things too easy," Dubu King is very concerned about protecting his employer's information, and he sees it more important than Wudao Shu, my people have to act when they have the opportunity, and I hope that the Dragon King will not be in a hurry." ”

"No, it won't. ”

"Well, please forgive the Dragon King for a woman's verbosity, you have something else important to come to me, right?"

Shangguan Fei listened attentively, because even he didn't know the purpose of the Dragon King's trip.

"I wonder if the assassin who assassinated the Central Plains envoy was one of your men?"

Shangguan Fei was taken aback, and was about to open his mouth to deny it, but shut up under his mother's stern gaze.

"What Shangguan Ru told the Dragon King?" Lady Meng didn't answer the Dragon King's question immediately, "I heard that the Dragon King just went to Kunshe during the day. ”

"No, she didn't know about it. ”

"Hehe, my precious daughter is very smart, she told the Dragon King that I took in a part of the killer apprentices, right?"

Mrs. Meng was also very smart, and she guessed the real situation at once, and Gu Shenwei could only nod.

"It's been a lot of work for me to compete for these dozens of apprentices. Mrs. Meng still did not answer the question directly, but launched an emotion, "The only contender is my biological daughter." King Dubu did not forgive our mother and son, but forgave the youngest daughter, and he doted on him even more than before. ”

Mrs. Meng looked at her son, whose face was blushing, and her tone was full of sourness, "Shangguan Ru didn't need to return to Jinpeng Castle, and even claimed in front of King Dubu that Shibao was full of crimes and should have been burned a long time ago, and then she formed an alliance with the monks, rebuilt the Kun Society, and drew all the boundaries with Shibao, even so, King Dubu still favored her and gave her whatever she wanted." Hundreds of killer apprentices, most of whom have not yet completed the training of the Carved Wood Academy, are such a group of minions who are not much stronger than waste, and the daughter has to fight with her mother, she succeeded, most of the apprentices belong to her, and I only get more than thirty people. ”

This is an accusation from his mother, and Gu Shenwei automatically thought of a rebuttal for Shangguan Ru in his heart: she was saving the lives of these apprentices and getting them out of the path of the killers, but Madame Meng would force them to continue walking until they were killed.

But he didn't speak, he came to see Mrs. Meng for a very clear purpose, and he didn't want to meddle in things.

Shangguan Fei felt that his sister was not that kind of person, but he would never offend his mother because of his sister, so he bowed his head and kept silent.

Madame Meng sighed and said, "The assassin is an apprentice under me. ”

Shangguan Fei raised his head in shock, "How is it possible?" Mother...... Dragon King, I don't know anything. ”

"Because you're not tight-lipped, I haven't told you anything. Madame Meng said sternly, and then turned to the Dragon King, "The Western Regions are all disturbing, and the heroes are competing, as multiple guarantees, I have dealings with powerful forces other than the Dragon Army, the Dragon King should not mind, right? Of course, this kind of interaction will never affect the interests of the Dragon King." ”

"That's normal, who is the person who hired the assassin?"

"The Western Regions are the protectors of Wei Song. ”

Shangguan Fei was frightened by his mother, "Wei, Wei Song, he is from the Central Plains, why did he want to kill the envoy ......of the Central Plains?

"The Central Plains want to kill the Central Plains, so that Wei Song can monopolize the power of the Western Regions, and ask the Central Plains Imperial Court to send a large army into the Western Regions. He found me because he had never trusted Jinpeng Castle, so he asked the Meng family for help. ”

"But you didn't keep it a secret for him. Gu Shenwei was skeptical of the easy answer.

"As I said, cooperation with others cannot affect the interests of the Dragon King. Whether it is the people of the Central Plains or the people of Beiting, they always come and go, and the Dragon King will stay in the Western Regions forever, this is my opinion. ”

Believe it or not, Madame Meng had already stuffed an idea into the dragon king's head, and she believed that the dragon king would use it sooner or later to fall into the trap.

The Dragon King took Shangguan Fei as a hostage, and the best time to assassinate him had passed, and it was the turn of the second plan to play.
