After rebirth, I became a treacherous minister Black Moonlight
Chapter 137 Wedding Eve
"A weapon that kills people."
Meng Qianqian said.
"Murder?" Tan Er looked at the flute in her hand. "How can a flute kill people? It doesn't have to be a blade, nor does it have to be poisoned. Ah! Is there a hidden weapon?"
As she spoke, she began to look carefully in every hole of the flute.
"What kind of hidden weapon is this? The Baili Killing Order was exchanged for a broken flute!"
Meng Qianqian smiled and was about to speak when suddenly, a man in a black cloak walked past.
In the market town, strange people can be seen everywhere. Meng Qianqian seldom looks at others. However, when this man appeared, she somehow took a glance at him as if possessed by a ghost.
At a glance, she saw the pigeon blood tattoo on the other person's hand.
Her eyes flashed.
"My god, this is a killing order..." Tan'er cried miserably while holding the flute, without a single tear.
"Tan'er."
Meng Qianqian spoke calmly.
"What?" Tan'er stopped crying in a second.
Meng Qianqian looked at the back of the man in the black cloak and said, "Did you see that man? Separate and chase him."
Tan Er turned the flute in her palm and held it tightly: "Yes, sir!"
Tan'er dodged into the alley opposite the iron shop, while Meng Qianqian lowered the brim of her hat and followed her quietly.
The cloaked man entered a gambling house.
Meng Qianqian went in without hesitation.
In the market town, it is not too shocking for a woman to enter a gambling house. Everyone is focused on the gambling and does not pay attention to whether the person coming in is a man or a woman.
Meng Qianqian, however, felt a little bit troubled.
There were too many people in the gambling house and she couldn't find that person.
She heard from Lin Xiaoru that the gambling house in Fangshi had only one door, so she was sure that the other party was still in the gambling house.
There are two options before him: either block him at the door or look for him one by one.
If I block him, I'm going to get married soon and I'm afraid I won't be able to outlast him.
Then we can only look for it.
In a dim study.
The cloaked man in black placed a box on the table across from him: "Here's what you asked for."
A man in a wheelchair said coldly, "Just bring your stuff, no need to trouble yourself."
The cloaked man glanced back out of the corner of his eye: "I'll take care of it."
"That's better." The man in the wheelchair gave him a bag of gold.
He took the gold and left the study.
The man in the wheelchair opened the box on the table, and inside was a bloody human head.
Meng Qianqian observed from outside for a long time and made sure that the man was not hiding among the gamblers in the lobby in disguise.
Meng Qianqian tried to go upstairs, but was stopped by two waiters in front of the corridor.
"I'm looking for my dad."
She said without changing her expression.
The two did not move.
It seems that not just anyone can go upstairs. After a brief hesitation, Meng Qianqian returned to a gambling table.
The two guys didn't stare at her. Probably, as long as she didn't cause trouble, it didn't matter whether she was looking for her father or gambling, it was none of their business.
Soon, the man in the black cloak came down from the stairs.
Meng Qianqian faced the gambling table, keeping an eye on him. After he left the gambling house, she quickly followed him.
When she turned into a secluded alley, a terrifying sword energy came towards her from mid-air.
Meng Qianqian dodged to the side, and the sword energy cut a long crack on the ground.
Without giving her any chance to breathe, the man in the black cloak slashed at her a second time with his sword, this time more fierce and domineering than she had imagined.
Fortunately, all the hard work during this period was not in vain. She kicked the wall with one foot, leaped up, dodged the sword and shot out the silver needle in her hand.
There were three silver needles in total, two of which were blocked by the opponent's sword, and the other one was caught by his two fingers.
He frowned: "Thirteen Ghost Needles? Who are you?"
Meng Qianqian once again showed three silver needles: "The one who wants to kill you."
"Insanity!"
The man in the black cloak swung his sword and made a fatal move.
But what Meng Qianqian didn't expect was that when his move was about to hit her, he suddenly turned around and stabbed towards Tan'er behind him.
Meng Qianqian's face changed: "Tan'er——"
At the moment when Tan'er was about to be pierced, a big axe chopped off the opponent's sword!
Meng Qianqian looked at the timely appearance of Carpenter Lei, and her expression changed: "Uncle Lei?"
Tan Er: "Big axe?"
Carpenter Lei stood in front of Tan'er, staring at the man in the black cloak with sharp eyes.
The man in the black cloak narrowed his eyes, performed light Kung Fu and left.
Meng Qianqian breathed a sigh of relief, walked forward and said, "Uncle Lei, thank you for your timely action."
Tan Er held her chin with her fists, her eyes full of admiration: "Big Axe, you are so powerful!"
Lei the Carpenter ignored the two men's thanks and flattery, and asked, "Why do you have a grudge against him?"
Meng Qianqian was surprised: "Uncle Lei, do you know that person?"
Lei the Carpenter said: "He is a killer in Fangshi. I don't know his exact origins, but suddenly one day, such a person appeared in Fangshi."
"I see." Meng Qianqian nodded. "He looks like one of my enemies. I followed him and was discovered by him."
"You are no match for him. You'd better not come to the market again. Not everyone will save you every time."
Carpenter Lei left after saying this.
Tan Er asked, "Sister, is Guo Ren the enemy you are looking for?"
Meng Qianqian thought for a moment and said, "Nine out of ten."
If she was just skeptical at first, she was completely certain after he recognized the Thirteen Ghost Needles and made such a shocked expression.
"Are you still not leaving? Are you waiting for him to come back and kill you?"
Carpenter Lei's deep voice came from the front.
Tan Er laughed and jumped over: "Big Axe, are you waiting for your sister?"
Meng Qianqian looked at the two people, one big and one small, one still and one moving, in the setting sun, one holding an axe and the other playing the flute.
This scene is actually quite heartwarming.
After Carpenter Lei safely escorted the two men out of the market, he turned back.
It looks like Uncle Lei has some unfinished business in the market.
This trip to the market was fruitful. Not only did he buy back the items of the Twelve Guards, but he also met his enemy by accident and learned that he was a killer from the market.
It will be much easier to find him in the future.
The two of them got home very late at night, and kept Matron Li waiting for a long time.
Madam Li quickly pulled Meng Qianqian into the house and said, "Why did you take so long? I almost sent someone to the Lin family to look for the young lady!"
Meng Qianqian blinked guiltily and said calmly, "Miss Lin insisted on inviting me to dinner, and I couldn't refuse. Didn't Mammy always say that she hoped I would make more friends and spend more time with them?"
Nanny Li was gagged by her own words.
Meng Qianqian stopped when she saw that things were going well: "Mammy, you've been working hard lately, go and have a rest."
Speaking of this, Nanny Li remembered the important business. She handed the dowry list to Meng Qianqian and said, "Miss, I have prepared the dowry according to the customs of the capital. It is a total of 160 dan, 40 dan more than when I first came to the capital. The details are written on it. The Third Master and Steward Meng have also looked at it. Miss, please take a look too to see if there is anything that needs to be added, subtracted or replaced."
Meng Qianqian smiled and said, "Since you have all seen it, I don't need to watch it."
It's just about taking all her belongings back with her.
When the young lady separated from the Lu family, she personally reviewed all the accounts and calculated every item clearly. How come she became a hands-off boss after arriving at the Governor's Mansion?
I really don't know what kind of magic potion Lu Yuan has fed to his young lady? The young lady is so eager to get married that she, the nanny, can hardly bear to watch it.
Damn Lu Yuan!
Nanny Li cursed Lu Yuan hundreds of times in her heart!
One hundred and sixty loads of dowry could not fit into one house, so the yards of Grandma Feng and Ji Li were also filled up. To celebrate, Banxia and Tan'er also hung red lanterns in their homes.
Naturally, Ji Li knew nothing about this.
On the eve of the wedding, Madam Du gave Meng Qianqian a booklet wrapped in black cloth.
"what is this?"
Meng Qianqian asked.
Madam Du suppressed her embarrassment and said awkwardly, "Miss, you will know after you see it. It will be necessary on the wedding night."
Meng Qianqian said "oh", opened the bundle and looked through the booklet.
Madam Du covered her eyes and stretched out a hand: "There's no need to be so anxious!"
Meng Qianqian flipped through it carefully: "It's a Spring Breeze painting, but there are so few poses."
Madam Du: “……!!”
