ma'am, calm down

Ye Peiqing's grandfather was born in a declining family, but he was naturally good at martial arts.He made great contributions on the battlefield, and saved the life of the late emperor with blood all over his body. He broke a leg, but he also made Mu Guogong.

Grandmother Jing was the daughter of a general, and she went out with her husband when she was young, and the late emperor praised her as a "heroine".

Ye Peiqing's father, Ye Zhengqin, was born under the protection of his ancestors and with a golden spoon in his mouth.

He also followed his father to the battlefield when he was young. He was a rare general, but he was hidden under his father's halo.

Even so, when the first emperor was dying, he still gave him the post of general who controlled the military power in the capital.

Ten years later, the old Mu Guogong passed away, and Ye Zhengqin inherited the title of title, but did not let go of his official position.

Now that the emperor is not in good health, the crown prince, empress, concubine Yun and all the major forces in the court are about to move, and Duke Mu holds the military power, so it is extremely important which side he wants to lean towards.

Everyone in the DPRK is anxious, but no one dares to blatantly cultivate relations with Mu Guogong, lest they will be charged with forming a clique for personal gain.

Mu Guogong himself didn't understand what the emperor was up to.The prince, his biological mother, Empress Wu, died ten years ago, and no one in the palace could speak well of him. He has survived to this day only by relying on the power of his natal family.

Today's Empress Qi is the original Concubine Li, who has a 16-year-old son. Over the years, she has been heartbroken to let her son become the crown prince, but she still failed to get her wish.

As for Concubine Yun, as the emperor's favorite concubine in the past few years, she naturally did not disappoint. She carried her five-year-old son around in front of the emperor every day.

It is very obvious which son the emperor likes, but it is hard to say which son will succeed in the end.

The most nervous people in the court are the relatives of the prince, queen and Concubine Yun.Others can still choose the master, but they have no choice at all, there is only one way to go to the dark.

All of this has nothing to do with Ye Peiqing.

At least that's what he thought in his previous life.

Ye Peiqing already understood the rebirth in this life.In the end why his family was ruined and his family was destroyed, why he was imprisoned, all had been brewing in the dark, and when the time came, he would be thrown into a situation where he would never be able to recover.

Therefore, the most important thing for him now is to visit his sick grandmother.

In Mrs. Jing's room, there were a lot of maids and women, and all the important people in the family of Mu Guofu were gathered together.Because Shisan and Ye Peiqing are both men, everyone just giggled, didn't talk much, and didn't dare to get very close.

Thirteen thought it would be convenient, and met the elders of the clan one by one, and greeted them politely.

Although newcomers entered the mansion, at the same time, lives were lost.No one dared to dress too freshly, with only light makeup on their faces.A woman was dressed in plain dark blue, with a generous style and a dignified appearance, which was unforgettable at first glance.

Thirteen recognized that this plainly dressed person was Mrs. Chi who was in charge of Zhongfu in the mansion.

Let's say that Mrs. Chi is a side wife, why can she control the center of Mu Guofu?

It turned out that Ye Peiqing's biological mother was the eldest daughter of the royal family. After her death, Mu Guogong respected her and never remarried to the royal family.But even if there is no wife, there must be someone to take care of the big and small affairs of the Duke's mansion, right?Mrs. Chi was in charge of the funeral when the first wife passed away, and she managed it in an orderly manner and was quite talented.She conceived a son for Mu Guogong, and her father, Chi Zhiyu, became more and more powerful over the years. Mrs. Chi was honored, and Mu Guogong gradually had the idea of ​​promoting her to be his wife.

Next, with Mrs. Chi as the head, everyone complimented Shisan's appearance from beginning to end, but he was a man, so they didn't dare to say too much, but in the end they brought it up to have a baby as soon as possible.

Thirteen really didn't understand what expression he should have now.How to have a baby?Where did it come from? Was it born in the stomach?

Ye Peiqing was still smiling, but Shisan knew that he was getting impatient.

Finally, Mrs. Jing said with a smile: "There is no rush to hold a grandson. They just got together, so there is no rush to take a concubine. I just want Pei Qing to live a comfortable life."

Mrs. Chi saw that the old lady was tired, and hurriedly said: "The matter of yesterday has not been dealt with yet, the old lady will talk to granddaughter-in-law first, and we will go first."

The old lady smiled and waved her hands, and everyone quickly retreated and dispersed.

There were only a few maidservants left in the room, Mrs. Jing smiled and beckoned to Shisan: "Come here."

The old lady is in her sixties this year, and her health is getting worse day by day. In the past few months, she has occasionally started to vomit blood.

The imperial physician told Mu Guogong privately that the old lady was afraid that she would get sick in her stomach, and the time would not be long.

The mansion was full of smog, and grandmother felt sorry for Ye Peiqing.What she wants to see most is a good wife who loves him and can help him in every way.

Finally, Ye Peiqing's wife came in.

Mrs. Jing tightly held Mei Yu with her bony hands: "I couldn't see clearly at the wedding banquet yesterday, let me take a good look."

It was the first time that Shisan was pulled by the old man to watch from beginning to end, so he had to stand straight.

She looked up and down for a long time, with a smile on her lips: "This second son of Mei Shangshu's family is really pretty."

Thirteen had no choice but to say, "I appreciate the old lady."

Mrs. Jing touched it fondly, as if she had infinite nostalgia: "Pei Qing's grandfather and your grandfather were the best friends back then, and they wanted to get married a long time ago. As a result, both of them only had sons and no daughters. In the end, they just joked and had no daughters. It's like marrying a son, I just married you, I didn't expect to be a beautiful woman—it's a marriage made in heaven."

Thirteen was depressed and speechless.

Mrs. Jing said to Yuxi, the maid beside her, "Go and get that mahogany box."

Yunxi smiled and said: "The old lady has been talking about it for a long time. This gift is specially prepared for Madam, and no one is allowed to touch it."

I took a look at the mahogany box, but inside it was a dagger, the scabbard was inlaid with precious stones, and it was priceless.

Mrs. Jing said with a smile: "You are a newcomer, so you should not have given you such a murderous thing, but we are a family of generals, and you are a man, this dagger is just for playing, there is no need to have so many Taboo. If Pei Qing bullies you in the future, you can use this dagger to frighten him."

Ye Peiqing smiled awkwardly: "The old lady doesn't have to bully her grandson if she wants to love her granddaughter-in-law. Mei Yu is the most gentle and considerate, and we are like glue. The old lady can rest assured."

Thirteen sneered in his heart.

This Ye Peiqing is filial, in order not to worry her grandmother, she would tell any lies.

Mrs. Jing liked it very much: "That's good. That's good. The newcomer has just arrived in the mansion and is unfamiliar with everything. You can spend more time with him and don't neglect him."

As she spoke, she held Shisan's hand again, and instructed in a low voice: "I think you are a good kid. Although you don't talk much, you are honest. Pei Qing will entrust you to you from now on, help him well." , I'm relieved."

Thirteen had no choice but to nod.

Mrs. Jing turned her head to Ye Peiqing again and said, "How is Yun Rui? Still unwilling to recruit?"

Ye Peiqing persuaded in a low voice: "Don't worry, old lady, I'm trying to figure out a way. There are so many stolen goods in Yunrui's room, and she won't say anything. As the saying goes, you have to tie the bell to untie it, so you have to find a way." Only by untying her heart knot can she understand what's going on."

Mrs. Jing was silent for a while, and then said: "I heard that girl Sui hanged herself?"

Ye Peiqing smiled and said: "It's true that this year is not going well, the old lady doesn't have to worry about it. I'm already investigating this matter thoroughly, and I'll take Mei Yu to the temple to burn incense in a few days for peace."

Mrs. Jing said: "I don't care about others, but this Yunrui is my personal maid. She grew up by my side, so I don't believe that she would steal. You must check it out."

Ye Peiqing nodded: "Yes, old lady, don't worry."

Mrs. Jing lowered her head and smiled: "When people are old, they think too much. It is often heard that if you live in a shameless manner when you are old, the people around you will suffer. I..."

Ye Peiqing quickly interrupted her, and winked to Mei Yu to persuade her.

Thirteen hurriedly persuaded Ye Peiqing for a long time, and said a lot of private things, the old lady's eyes stopped red.

Mrs. Jing lay on the bed tiredly and said: "Go, go see your family. I'm tired too, I need to rest."

Ye Peiqing and Shisan invited Ann to go out, and the two of them were quiet all the way.Shisan didn't want to talk to Ye Peiqing in the first place, but now that he knew that he had a lot on his mind, he didn't want to bother him.

Came to Mu Guogong's place to invite An Jingtea. Mu Guogong had just passed away his wife, so he had nothing to say to Mei Yu, only asked: "Do you still want to be an official?"

Thirteen didn't know how to answer, so he glanced at Ye Peiqing without a trace, only to see the latter nodded slightly.

Thirteen said: "Let the Duke decide."

Mu Guogong pondered for a while: "Let me see if there are any vacancies in the court, and then let Pei Qing know."

Ye Peiqing said, "Thank you, father."

Thirteen thought to himself: No wonder some people want to be a man's wife of aristocrats without thinking about it. There are so many benefits.It's a pity that he is an assassin, and he has no addiction to being an official, so he wasted this good opportunity for nothing.

It was already afternoon when we returned to the courtyard, Ye Peiqing said "I have to go out to do some errands, I won't be back until evening", and left immediately, leaving only Shisan in the room.

Thirteen wished he could stay alone, and after eating a little lunch, he closed the door of the room, only saying that he was unwell, and began to try to open up the meridians according to the martial arts mental method he had learned before.

If he wants to escape and survive, he must practice kung fu well.

It was two o'clock at night, and Ye Peiqing and Ye Lin came to a secluded courtyard in the city around the corner.The hut was very messy, the dust flew up when Ye Peiqing opened the door.I couldn't hear anything in the distance, but when I listened carefully, I heard a faint muffled cry.

Ye Peiqing stood in a dark corner calmly.Ye Lin closed the firewood room door, opened a twisting sack in the corner, and revealed a person.

There was an old nun with her hands and feet tied, her bare head shining brightly in the moonlight.She looked to be around 50 or [-] years old, her face was trembling and pale, her eyes were wide open as if she had seen a ghost, she howled in a high-pitched voice, but with a rag stuffed in her mouth, she let out a muffled roar.

Finally, the old nun became more and more powerless when she shouted, and no one came to rescue her even though she was screaming, so she began to cry.

Ye Lin let her cry for a while, and said with a smile: "I have left my teacher here for the past two days. I have a few things to ask. Would you like to teach me something?"

The old nun nodded like a rattle.

Ye Lin said: "Then I will take the cloth out of the teacher's mouth now, teacher, please don't make noise. Everyone is a kind person. I usually cry for a while even killing a rabbit. I don't like killing people, teacher." Don't force me."

The old nun didn't dare to make a sound when she cried, she just nodded with sobs, tears streaming down her face.

Taking out the rag from her mouth, the old nun did not dare to make a sound, but only looked at Ye Lin in horror.

Ye Lin followed what Ye Peiqing taught, and said with a smile: "Master is too surprised. This time I just want to ask Madam Sui about it. Please tell me everything about her."

The old nun's body trembled like a sieve.
