Spring dyed pear blossoms
Chapter 13
Master Zhuang was also surprised, Meng Qiucheng has always been very measured in his work.
Lord Zhuang used to be General Deng's former subordinate. Because he had no official position in the army, he was able to survive the treason case back then.But because he followed General Deng, he became an idler in the army as soon as General Deng died.Depressed all day long, he finally chose to leave the barracks.
When Meng Qiucheng found him later, he didn't believe that she, a woman, could overturn the conspiracy case back then.He was even more unwilling to take risks because of her words.
General Deng was kind to him, and he didn't want General Deng's only daughter to die!But he refused with words, and several blows did not make Meng Qiucheng change his mind.Instead, Meng Qiucheng persuaded him in the end.
Every bit of these years is vivid in his memory, he understands that Meng Qiucheng is not easy.Similarly, he also admired Meng Qiucheng's courage and intelligence.
So he always believed what Meng Qiucheng said, because Meng Qiucheng's decision was always right!
Now she said that something might happen to Ayu, it must not be a joke.He didn't understand how Meng Qiucheng made his judgment, he just had to follow what Meng Qiucheng said, and he wouldn't be wrong.
When the black shadow disappeared into the night again, the cold wind suddenly picked up.Meng Qiucheng's body trembled slightly, and her eyes were fixed on the corpse on the ground.
The door of the courtyard opened with a creak, and Master Zhou entered the courtyard with two servants from the mansion.
Master Zhou ordered the two servants to carry away the body and bury it. Meng Qiucheng saw all this but did not speak.
Master Zhou didn't just ask Meng Qiucheng about the origin of the corpse!This is not the first time he has dealt with such a thing, and he has gotten used to it over time, so he is no longer curious.
In fact, all the servants in this mansion are trusted by Meng Qiucheng, and there is another reason why she kept Master Zhou.That is, master Zhou never asks too much, and never talks too much.On the surface, Master Zhou seems to be a calculative person, but in the face of big right and wrong, he will never be a bad person.
As for Mr. Zhou, apart from knowing that Meng Qiucheng deliberately disguised himself as an out-and-out corrupt official for other purposes, he also knew that there is no good official who loves the people more than this man.
In today's world, without a backer behind him, how can he get along in this officialdom.Just like Shaotong, the honest and good official that people say, if Prime Minister Zhang hadn't kept him, he would have died thousands of times already.So he understood Meng Qiucheng's actions very well, and he was just seeking self-protection in this officialdom.
Similarly, Mr. Zhou is no better than ordinary people, he is shrewd and wise.In addition to respecting Meng Qiucheng, he can probably guess that such a person is so eager to get ahead in the officialdom, there must be some ulterior secret.This secret may be the reason for all his confusion.
Secrets are not terrible, but terrible are secrets that can lead to death.
Meng Qiucheng never told him, and he hoped that Meng Qiucheng would never tell him.
Master Zhou was doing his own work, and then said, "My lord, it's getting late and the night is cold, you'd better go to bed early!"
Meng Qiucheng nodded, "Please trouble Master!"
She gratefully looked at Master Zhou for his unspoken concern, and also thanked him for being willing to submit to her all these years.In fact, with Master Zhou's talent and learning, how could he be just a little master.
A touch of dark blue slowly brewed on the horizon, and after a while, it would be dawn.
Master Zhuang brought six or seven experts and sneaked into Prince Yong's Mansion.
King Yong is a very suspicious person, the inspection staff in the mansion is no different from the strict security of the palace!But at this moment, Master Zhuang already felt something was wrong.
Apart from the two gate guards outside the gate of the palace, there is no one else.There seems to be a hint of danger lurking in such a calm night.
No wonder Meng Qiucheng asked him to bring a few good hands to save people, maybe Ah Yu was already surrounded by this danger.
"Master Zhuang, shall we go in?" The young man who followed him was called Qian Feng, and he was also a descendant of the rebellion survivor.But he has just grown up and is not familiar with the world.He has a good kung fu foundation and is loyal.
Meng Qiucheng attached great importance to this young man.Whenever there is a task, Master Zhuang will take it personally.
One is to exercise his ability to handle affairs, and the other is to allow him to accept tasks alone as soon as possible and take charge of himself.Meng Qiucheng's thoughts were so deep that others couldn't figure it out, and she also told Master Zhuang about these things afterwards.
Master Zhuang looked at the sky with a cold face, it was about an hour before dawn.He shook his head, "It's not the time yet, just wait! Remember, kid, don't be impatient at any time!"
Qian Feng's complexion sank, he nodded and said, "Remember, Master Zhuang!"
When dawn broke, Meng Qiucheng didn't close her eyes all night. She lay on the bed, looked out of the window, and got up when the sky turned pale.
She opened the door and sat in the courtyard again until Master Zhuang appeared again.
She clenched her fist nervously and asked softly, "Where's Ah Yu?"
Master Zhuang's expression was ugly, and he replied in a low voice, "Ayu was injured and sent to the Xiao family to recuperate."
Meng Qiucheng let go of his fist and breathed a sigh of relief.
"My lord, King Yong seems to know that we will go back. This time we were ambushed. Although Ayu was rescued, Qian Feng was hacked to death by the people of Prince Yong's mansion."
These words pierced Meng Qiucheng's heart like a knife, making her thin face pale immediately.She didn't expect that people from Prince Yong's Mansion set up an ambush?The second ambush was obviously guessed that they would rescue Ayu.This time, she was indeed careless.
This is the first time she has missed in such a long time, it seems that this Yong Wang was underestimated before.
Meng Qiucheng stared at Master Zhuang, knowing that he was in grief, but she had to remind, "All information about Qian Feng's identity must be dealt with cleanly."
"Don't worry, my lord. When we left, we snatched some valuables from Prince Yong's mansion and pretended to be a thief to steal. As for Qian Feng's identity, it has already been planned according to what your lord said before. But if something happens, everyone There is a false identity, so Yong Wang will never find out anything.
It's just that Qian Feng's body is still in Prince Yong's Mansion..."
Master Zhuang bowed his head and remained silent.
Meng Qiucheng knew what he meant, "Send someone to keep an eye on it, and when the matter subsides, let's have a good burial!"
After arranging everything, Meng Qiucheng immediately went to Yanyu Tower.At this time, the door of Yanyu Building was not opened at all, she entered through the back door skillfully, and went straight to Jinxi's room.
Meng Qiucheng's face was probably terribly ugly, and even Yu'er was a little scared when he saw it.
Jin Xi glanced at her, "Yu'er, you go down first! It seems that Master Meng is not satisfied with the money given earlier, and Master Meng and I need to discuss it again."
Seeing that Meng Qiucheng was really unhappy this time, Yu'er believed Jin Xi's words, bowed without saying a word, and left.
There were only two people left in the room, and the candles on the table were about to burn out, exuding a strong smell of wax and oil.Meng Qiucheng threw something from his sleeve and threw it on the table.
"This is what was found from the messenger!"
"Is this the token of King Liang's mansion?" Jin Xi stared at Meng Qiucheng puzzled, "Is it from King Liang?"
"It's not from King Liang, but it's obvious that someone wants to use this corpse to blame King Liang! It provokes an infighting between King Liang and King Yong! And one of my men was injured and the other died. I didn't let King Yong Caught alive, and did not leave any clues."
Jin Xi paused in her heart, and immediately understood the reason why her face was so ugly.
"Could the person who sent the letter belong to King Yong?"
Meng Qiucheng thought for a while before shaking his head slightly, "It's not like someone from Yongwang, this person must want to use you to deal with Yongwang, and also wants to use you to blame Liangwang. It's a pity that Yongwang didn't catch you, and he didn't I didn't know that you were the one who assassinated him. But the one who used you knew you well, and even knew your purpose.
That messenger was just a bait, my negligence this time almost made a big mistake! "
Meng Qiucheng's self-blame surprised Jinxi, he always had a playful and cynical look.At least in the past few days since I came into contact with her, the word responsibility has not been reflected in her body.
"Are you OK!"
Meng Qiucheng lowered his head and looked at the burnt candle, the light in the room suddenly dimmed.Her thin face was completely submerged in the darkness.
Jin Xi couldn't see her expression, but could feel her mood.
"Qian Feng is not yet 20 years old. He is the son of my father's former ministry. He is smart and good at martial arts. If the conspiracy case is cleared one day, he said that he still wants to join the military camp and serve the court. He said that he wants to be a peacemaker." A loyal minister and general like his father.
The last time I saw him, he told me that he felt that such a day is not far away!But he can't wait for that day anymore! "
Jin Xi didn't speak, just sat quietly opposite her.
"Sometimes I wonder if it is too selfish for me to take them on an adventure with me. If I hadn't appeared, perhaps Qian Feng would have lived a normal life, carefree, and would not have fallen into the trap People hacked to death with knives. Did I really do something wrong!"
Jin Xi shook his head, "You are right, the one who judged this case was wrong."
Meng Qiucheng was stunned, and only after a while did he utter two words, "Really?"
Jin Xi nodded, "I believe that my adoptive father will never be a traitor. If this matter is not investigated clearly, those loyal ministers who died in vain will always bear the stigma, and their future children will also be cast aside by the world Qian Feng will definitely do the same, so he chooses to follow you!
At least follow you, he has hope, his every day is very meaningful! "
Meng Qiucheng never thought that she would say such a thing, let alone that Feng San dared not confide in the grievance in his heart, but today he said it in front of her by a strange coincidence.
Maybe it's because they have a common goal, or maybe it's because she never dared to show her weak side to the people around her, but when facing Jinxi, she can feel more at ease.
Looking at the moist eyes of the person in front of him, Meng Qiucheng suddenly leaned close to her ear, his body almost touching her ear.The thin lips moved slightly, and a gust of hot air rushed into the cochlea in an instant.
"Be careful of Yuer, beware of Ran Xue! Don't tell others about the matter between you and me! I will make a decision after I find out Yuer's identity. Today I am here to remind you of this!"
Meng Qiucheng stood up, and took another look at Jinxi's face, "I don't know why I'm telling you this, maybe you really have the ability to seduce people from brothels!"
Before Jinxi got angry, Meng Qiucheng wisely chose to leave.
Standing outside the door, looking at the person whose face was flushed because of anger, he couldn't help but smile.She didn't know why she said so much to a person she hadn't known for long, was it because this woman would be her important partner, or because she knew this woman before so she didn't need to pretend in front of her.
Or, it's because this woman is actually quite interesting!
Meng Qiucheng closed the door very quickly, and there was a sound of broken porcelain from behind the door.She shook her head, feeling sorry for the porcelain pot made by the official kiln on the table.That thing is not cheap at first glance, it should be enough for the refugees outside Chang'an City to eat porridge for several days!
The author has something to say: begging for collection!
