Invincible son

Chapter 229 228 [The road is difficult]

Yongrenfang, the back residence of the Shen Mansion.

On the water pavilion in the southeast corner, Shen Danmo was leaning on a gooseneck pillow, resting his chin with his left hand, looking boredly at the pool water blown by the autumn wind.

The two servant girls stood quietly beside them, their postures seemed to be carved out of the same mold, and their breathing was very light.

The sound of footsteps came from behind, and the maids turned their heads to look, and hurriedly knelt down and saluted: "Master."

Mo Moyun said gently: "You go down first."

"Yes." The two maids hurriedly exited the water pavilion.

Shen Danmo had already got up, saluted and said, "I've seen Daddy."

Mo Moyun waved his hands with a smile, walked to the edge of the water pavilion platform, put his hands behind his back, looked up to the southeast, his eyes seemed to be able to see through the warm autumn sun, and saw a lively mansion somewhere in the square.

"What is daddy looking at?" Shen Danmo walked up to him and stood still, asking curiously.

Mo Moyun said with complicated eyes: "Today is the day when Pei Yue moved back to Zhongshanzi Mansion. Although His Majesty bestowed that house last year, he has been living in Lvliuzhuang in the east of the city. I have been wondering when he Returning to Beijing is now much earlier than I expected. Today coincides with his housewarming celebration, and many people are willing to go to Zhongshanzi Mansion to join him."

With no joy or worry on Shen Danmo's face, he asked lightly: "I don't know who has gone?"

Mo Moyun said slowly: "Luo Ting and Wang Pingzhang sent people to send congratulatory gifts, half of the small noble houses in Beijing sent their children to congratulate them, Sun Qi from the Duke of Shanguo's mansion and the group of noble children who like to do business helped He entertains guests."

Shen Danmo lightly smiled and said: "The house is full of flowers and friends, it's really a raging fire."

Mo Moyun turned to look at her, and continued: "Civilian officials have never been in close contact with Wu Xun generals, so except for Luo Ting, most of the others did not respond. The only exception is the imperial servant Jianrong, who was very early in the morning. Then I went to Zhongshan Zifu, but I didn't enter the door, I just chatted with Pei Yue outside the gate, and then left in a hurry."

The surface of the water was rippling, Shen Danmo curled his lips slightly and said: "Pei Yue saved his life at the court meeting, and what he got in return was just a few gossips."

Mo Moyun laughed and said: "For someone like Jian Rong, it is very rare for someone like Jian Rong to be able to take the initiative to congratulate a young dignitary."

Shen Danmo shook his head and said, "It's just talking about it, isn't this what Yu Shi is best at?"

Silent Cloud frowned slightly, and said in a serious tone, "Mo'er, calm down."

Shen Danmo came to his senses, realized that his state of mind had lost restlessness, and lowered his head in response: "Yes."

Mo Moyun has never been a strict father in front of her, especially after the eldest son passed away unexpectedly, he was extremely tolerant towards her, so naturally he would not continue to reprimand her at this moment, but said in a gentle voice: "I will ask someone to read the one you wrote in previous years. The words are sent over in your name."

Shen Danmo's pretty face flushed slightly, but she quickly realized that she looked at her father suspiciously.

Mo Moyun understood what she was thinking, and said softly: "You have exchanged letters with him so many times, if you don't even send a simple congratulatory gift, you will be inferior. As for the father and him, since that day in the If he wants to keep Pei Rongqi in front of him, he doesn't have much friendship to speak of."

Shen Danmo thought about what had happened over the past year, as well as his father's several shots, and became more and more puzzled. He couldn't help asking: "Daddy, there are some things my daughter can't understand. Whether Pei Rong's case or Li Zijun's case The case is still the case of Qibao Pavilion this time, in fact, you are helping Pei Yue, why do you have to create false appearances to make him suspicious, and make him think that you have other plans?"

Mo Moyun didn't answer, but said indifferently: "Although Luo Ting is in charge of the honeycomb briquette matter, and the Ministry of Household Affairs and the Ministry of Industry are co-organizers, it is impossible for him to stay away from the center, so the specific details are still handled by his subordinates. Call the shots. Luo Ting is generous and willing to delegate power, and will not care about Pei Yue taking power. I have already explained to Lin He that he temporarily put down his responsibilities as a cadre and lead a group of people out of Beijing to keep an eye on Pei Yue all the time. He makes no mistakes."

Shen Danmo shook his head and said, "I don't understand."

Mo'er Yun looked at her with concern, and said with a smile, "I told you this in advance to prevent you from thinking wildly. Mo'er, no matter what happens, you must hold your breath, and don't lose your sense of control."

He paused for a while, and said in a complicated tone: "As for the reason for doing this for your father, you will understand in the future."

"Daughter remembered."

Shen Danmo bowed his head and answered, a girl's melancholy drifted unconsciously in his eyes.

……

Prince Lu's Mansion.

The laughter and laughter of the past are gone, and the servants in the mansion are cautious, not even daring to breathe, walking lightly like ghosts, for fear that they will become the next unlucky person to be killed by a stick.

In the side hall, the well-known eldest prince sat indifferently, looked at Li Jinyan, the chief minister who bowed his head in front of him, and said, "In this way, none of the three coaches of the Beijing camp sent anyone to congratulate them?"

Beads of sweat appeared on Li Jinyan's forehead, and he replied cautiously: "My lord, not only the three coaches, but also Cheng'anhou Lumin and Chengyihou Guo Kaishan didn't send anyone to Zhongshanzi Mansion."

Liu Xian snorted coldly, although he could still maintain a calm face, his tightly clenched hands had already betrayed his true state of mind.

As Emperor Kaiping's most beloved prince, the majestic prince, was slapped severely by a bastard, how could he bear this tone?Although Emperor Kaiping didn't punish him severely, he just asked him to study behind closed doors for half a year, but his dignity was actually trampled on the ground, not to mention that Qibao Pavilion was sealed up and Xu Song was imprisoned in Taishitai Pavilion. A very serious loss for him.

The concubine was always respectful and considerate, she hadn't shed tears in the past few days, although she didn't dare to complain in front of him, but that pitiful appearance made him annoyed and angry, so he had to live in the side hall, simply out of sight.

Liu Xian recalled Pei Yue's helpless, sad and indignant posture in the bamboo building that day, as if an invisible palm was slapping him.

Especially today when I heard that Pei Yue returned to Beijing to live in Zhongshanzi Mansion, many honorable mansions in the capital sent congratulatory gifts, even Wei Guogong Wang Pingzhang was no exception, which made Liu Xian even more angry.If it wasn't for the inner eunuch who was close to Emperor Kaiping to instruct him not to leave the mansion that day, Liu Xian would never have watched Pei Yue enjoy the scenery.

"Is there any result to what I asked you to inquire about?" Liu Xian asked coldly.

Li Jinyan quickly replied: "Your Majesty, the villain has already found out, that fellow will leave Beijing in ten days, and the first stop will be Yongzhou."

Liu Xian sneered a few times, turned around to look at the strong man standing beside him, and said through gritted teeth, "Nian Xu, have you heard?"

The strong man knelt down on one knee, and said in a low voice, "Please show me what my subordinates should do."

Liu Xian's eyes were full of killing intent, and he said slowly: "You take a group of people out of Beijing, and find a chance to kill him for me!"

The strong man named Nian Xu didn't have any fluctuations in his eyes, as if he had received an order to kill a chicken, and said with a dull expression: "My lord, don't worry, my subordinates will bring back his head."

"Very well, let's go down."

Liu Xian waved his hand. After the two of them went out, he gradually regained his composure and looked in front of him indifferently.
