Chapter 236 The Jiangnan Flower Umbrella Festival Case 7
"Return to the princess." Su Yin saluted, "I wanted to leave my mother in Mengxiang Tower, but that day was also a coincidence, so I escaped by taking advantage of the fire in the building, and that's when I came to Mingzhou."

"That's such a coincidence~" Yan Mo smiled, "Miss Su is really my noble person! That day in Mengxiang Tower, thanks to your help, I learned the secret of the macaw. Today, it is the blessing of the girl who entrusted me , and met the person we wanted to catch."

"Princess was joking." Su Yin said with a puzzled expression, "The parrot was an accident. As for today, I don't know who the concubine saw. It has nothing to do with the little girl, maybe it's a coincidence."

"Oh? Is that so?" Yan Mo shot a lingering look, weeping, and the strike was a swift sword!That's without reservation!Murderous aura overflowing! ! !
"!!!" Su Yin didn't expect that the opponent would launch an offensive at such a close distance, and subconsciously stepped back! !Show your skills! ! !

There was a crackling sound!The odds and ends brought by Jianfeng fell to the ground one after another, smashing to pieces! ! !And Cang Qi stopped in mid-air, shining with candlelight in his mouth!

"Miss Su, who are you?!" Yan Mo turned his wrist, retracted his sword and stood up.But Qi Ming just sat leisurely, watching everything with a slight smile.

Seeing that the other party had doubts, Su Yin didn't hide it anymore, and said sincerely, "The little girl is indeed from the Jianghu. She came to Mingzhou because she admired the beauty of the princess! But, there is no malice!"

As soon as Yan Mo heard that he followed, he suddenly remembered that Mo Yu's brother was also protecting him all the way: "You" remembered Mo Yu's order again, not to let anyone know that he had seen him, Yan Mo frowned and stared at Su Yin, and had to change the subject , "You knew my identity earlier?"

"Don't blame the princess." Su Yin lowered her eyes and said, "In Beijing, the story of the village owner's request for the prince has already spread, and it is not difficult to know the identity of the princess."

Yan Mo suspected that Su Yin and Mo Yu were closely related, so he glanced at the fox behind him, and she asked again: "Today, Zhu Wangshan is here, do you know?"

"Zhu Wangshan" Su Yin looked puzzled.
"You don't recognize Zhu Wangshan?" Yan Mo asked slightly surprised, but the other party shook his head.
Qi Ming looked back and forth at the two of them, thoughtfully, and couldn't help squinting his eyes, still smiling slightly, got up and said, "Since Miss Su is admiring the princess and following her here, why don't you do me a favor."

Su Yin saluted and said, "My lord, please tell me."

Qi Ming: "This place is one of Zhuwangshan's strongholds. At the convenience of Miss Su, I will help the king and princess to watch one or two. We want to capture Zhuwangshan and return to Beijing to return."

Su Yin: "As entrusted by the lord and concubine, the little girl is obliged to do so, but I don't know who Zhu Wangshan is and what he looks like?"

Qi Ming turned around and came to the table, set up the paperweight, picked up the brush and concentrated on drawing for a while, then pointed to the two portraits and said: "Zhu Wangshan is a wanted criminal by the imperial court. , walking with dragging feet. This man's name is Zhu Mengxin, who was the leader of the money gang ten years ago. He is tall, broad-faced, and extremely masculine. Tonight, he is Mei Le's guest."

Su Yin looked at the portrait and muttered, "Zhu Wangshan, Zhu Mengxin. Are these two brothers?"

Hearing this, Qi Ming and Yan Mo looked at each other. Both of them are surnamed Zhu. Could it be that they are really brothers?

"Maybe." Qi Ming replied, "If Miss Su meets these two people, please pay more attention."

Su Yin blew on the portrait, and seeing that the ink was almost dry, he rolled up the portrait and said, "Don't worry, my lord and concubine, the little girl should do her best!"

"Ah! Also." Qi Ming laughed in a low voice, "Today I asked the girl to meet because the princess wants to ask you about dancing skills and women's bed."

Su Yin smiled and said, "Don't worry, my lord, the little girl understands."

Not long after, after seeing off the prince and concubine, Su Yin returned to her room, closed the door, and went to the depths of the house.

"The subordinates have met the Patriarch."

Mo Yu slowly stepped out from the shadows, revealing his exquisite and beautiful features: "We are not familiar with the situation in Mingzhou, so you need to collect all kinds of information as soon as possible. Also, take good care of this person."

"The subordinate understands." Su Yin replied, turning his head to look at his own bed, where lay a comatose man, who was the leader of the man in black who assassinated King Yi'an earlier.

Duke of Wei.

The duke and his wife saw that it was getting late, but they only received a gift from Ming'er, and they didn't see their grandson and grandson's daughter-in-law back, so they became a little worried
"Hey! Master, don't hang around there!" Mrs. Wei greeted, "Come and sit! You didn't respond to what I told you earlier!"

Wei Guogong said slightly displeased: "The two of you haven't come back yet, you still have the mind to talk about that matter!"

Mrs. Wei comforted herself: "Ming'er is highly skilled in martial arts. Judging by Yan'er's footwork, he must be good at martial arts. In fact, we have nothing to worry about."

Duke Wei also knew that there were very few people in the world who could hurt Ming'er, and it was normal for him to take his wife out for a stroll, and it was normal for him to return late. After sighing lightly, he sat down and said, "I don't think that's right."

"What's wrong!" Mrs. Wei scolded, "I don't know why Your Majesty means that His Highness the Crown Prince is the eldest son, but he has not accepted the Crown Princess for so long! If His Highness the Crown Prince is not married, Ming'er can't officially get married? Ming'er, Yan'er seems to be stuck in the middle of the mountain! Say, if the two of them consummated their marriage, they might not know what outsiders would say! But since they have not consummated their marriage, you want to hug your great-grandson, but you can't!"

Duke Wei nodded his head and said: "Yes. It has been several months since the imperial decree of marriage was issued. Looking at Ming'er's actions, Yan'er should have already entered the palace. Alas! This is simply"

"You can't go up, you can't go down!" Mrs. Wei continued, "So! I said, my lord, this concubine's room is different. Ming'er is a prince, so it's not a bad idea to marry a few concubines! Give birth to a few white and fat The fat little baby is also spreading branches and leaves for the royal family! In this way, it will not violate His Majesty's will, but also fulfill our wish~ In the past, Ming'er was all in the capital, and we couldn't help if we wanted to, so why not just We have to take advantage of this opportunity to make trouble for him!"

Wei Guogong: "What about Ke Yan'er? Don't forget that Ming'er asked for it on her own initiative! If you let Ming'er take a concubine, she will not be happy!"

"The master may have forgotten!" Mrs. Wei replied, "I heard that Yan'er even found a concubine for Ming'er! It seems that it is a lady surnamed Liang."

Wei Guogong wondered: "I know about this, but Miss Jiang, who entered the mansion first, heard that she was pregnant. Yan'er asked Miss Liang to enter the mansion purely to deal with Miss Jiang! Didn't she have a miscarriage after that?" "

"." Mrs. Wei was a little discouraged, "If we don't give Ming'er Zhang Luo, who will worry about Ming'er's family succession? Yan'er can't do it by herself, so I have to let others do it. It's a pity that the child in Miss Jiang's womb." Shen Yin After a while, she made up her mind and said, "Master, leave this matter to me. After a while, when Yan'er comes back, I'll go check it out."

While discussing here, the gate of the mansion ushered in the return of Qi Ming and Yan Mo.The two entered the mansion in a hurry, and first reported to the elders that they were safe.

"Yo! I'm back!" Mrs. Wei looked up first, and she was a little dazed when she saw that Yan Mo had changed into a woman's attire. Although she had a different temperament, she always reminded her of her own daughter at a similar age.
"How's the investigation going?" Wei Guogong stepped forward to check and asked.

"Grandpa, don't worry, Yan'er and I are fine, things have made some progress." Qi Ming replied soothingly.

"Have you been to Fanjie?" Mrs. Wei stepped forward and asked, looking at the two flower umbrellas in Yan Mo's hands.

"Grandfather, grandmother." Yan Mo nodded politely, "Fan Street is very lively, and the scenery of Zhihu Lake is very beautiful."

In order not to worry the two elders, Yan Ming and the two agreed that the two of them would discuss outside matters and not report them.Therefore, Yan Mo only talked about the fun things in Fanjie.

"Ah~ Have the two of you eaten?" Madam Wei asked with concern.

Yan Mo looked at the dishes on the table in the hall, and he was really hungry, but thinking that his appearance of wolfing down might scare the Duke and Madam, he was about to say that he was not hungry, when there was a gurgling sound ! !

Mrs. Wei was taken aback for a moment, and then her smile blossomed!It's been a long time since it was so lively!

"Quick! Bring up all the warm dishes, especially the sweet and sour fish dish, and the crispy salt-and-pepper chicken!"

Wei Guogong: "Hurry up, go and call Mr. Xiaoyu from the guest house, dinner is ready!"

As soon as the servants heard the order, they hurriedly dispersed.

After entering the table, Duke Wei first asked, "Who is this Mr. Xiaoyu?"

"Young Master Xiaoyu is Yan'er's adopted brother." Qi Ming replied, "He was the orphan of General Yu and his wife. When he went to the northern line to support him, he saw him alone, so Yan'er took him in as his adopted brother."

"Ah, it turns out to be the queen of the general." Duke Wei comforted, "You guys are in a hurry to go out, and Mr. Xiaoyu woke up. I don't know what to do, so I have to let someone wait on you first."

"It's my grandson's fault." Qi Ming said with a slight smile, "I forgot to say it beforehand."

"Hey~" Wei Guogong waved his hand and said gratifiedly, "Yan'er has a heart! Since you have accepted him as a brother-in-law, you are a family! It is really rare, and the Wei Mansion is finally going to be lively~"

Faced with this warmth, Yan Mo felt a layer of guilt again. Whether it was the marriage with the fox or the brother-in-law, neither of them was telling the truth. But when she saw the eyes of the two elders, she would still curl her lips and try to maintain so happy at this moment
When Yu Lingzhou arrived, they each introduced each other, and they recognized each other's faces, and the dinner ended in harmony.

After dinner, Yan Mo accompanied Yu Lingzhou around the mansion before returning to Yuemingxuan. After entering the house, she saw Qi Ming watching the new flower umbrella, so she stepped forward and asked, "Have you found the clue?" ?"

Seeing Yan Mo approaching, Qi Ming picked up the handle of the flower umbrella and pulled it hard!He actually drew out a shining sword! !

Seeing this, Yan Mo was startled: "There is a sword hidden in the handle of the umbrella?!" As she said that, she stepped forward to check. The workmanship of this sword is still good. Although it is not the best, it is still worthy of a sword. Grade, and very new, not long after opening, the blade is very sharp! "They used flower umbrellas to smuggle weapons?!"

"This Tao Zhizhou really didn't tell the truth." Qi Ming looked at Bao Jian and smiled.

"What does this have to do with Tao Zhizhou?" Yan Mo asked suspiciously.

"Who is Zhu Mengxin?" Qi Ming looked at him and asked.

Yan Mo: "Money helps the Lord."

Qi Ming: "Then who do you think he is now?"

Yan Mo: "A dog can't change from eating shit, so what kind of person can it be? It's nothing more than doing some shit!"

Qi Ming: "If it's a small fight, it's fine. They are so brazen as to hoard weapons. I'm afraid Mingzhou is not peaceful."

Yan Mo: "What do you mean?"

"If there is banditry in a state, and the local officials are incapable of eliminating it, they will be charged with crimes." Qi Ming said with a chuckle, "No wonder Tao Zhizhou came to report Zhu Wangshan's whereabouts in a hurry. He wanted to use you and me. hand, except for banditry."

Yan Mo was a little puzzled: "Then he just said it, why didn't he report it?"

Qi Ming: "He doesn't want to admit that there are bandits in Mingzhou, so how can he bluntly report it?"

Yan Mo snorted softly: "It's really something local officials love to do to deceive the superior and the inferior!"

Qi Ming sighed: "It seems that the situation in Mingzhou is very complicated."

"Qingfangtai is full of people, and it is the stronghold of Zhuwangshan. It is perfect to transport and stockpile this item. Could it be that the weapon is hidden in it?" Yan Mo thought, looking up at the fox!
"Nine out of ten." Qi Ming nodded.

"No wonder! You will say." Yan Mo said plainly, "Don't worry about Zhu Wangshan. Next, what are you going to do?"

"Hmph~" Qi Ming chuckled, seeing that the other party was still looking at him curiously, he didn't want to explain, instead he leaned closer and asked, "Are you hiding something from me?"

"!" Yan Mo stepped back while being alert!At this moment, this approach reminded her of the kiss in Qingfang Terrace! !

Qi Ming continued to approach and said: "When we first entered Qingfangtai, you and I were following the mysterious man. You were eager to find Su Yin, just to know if the mysterious man was related to her. But after meeting Su Yin, you didn't Ask in person." He finally stopped and looked at the person in front of him, his eyes were full of tenderness, as if he could see through everything.
Yan Mo opened his eyes and said: "Since the mysterious man saved you, he is not an enemy. Su Yin has nothing to do with him, so he has nothing to do with him. If he is involved, he is not an enemy. Right now, arresting Zhu Wangshan is the most important thing!"

"." Qi Ming squinted his eyes, and just at this time, his servants came to spread the word, saying that Mrs. Wei had an invitation to invite the princess to speak alone.

"Put away the umbrella! Don't let anyone see it!!" Yan Mo was eager to escape from the fox, and left with the visitor with just one sentence!
Qi Ming was left standing alone in front of the door, squinting his eyes to watch the other person's back go away: "Did something happen between Yan'er and that mysterious man?"Why did that person save me?If the person who wants to save is not actually me, could it be Yan'er?

In the whole Weifu, the courtyards and paths are full of flowers and trees of various colors, and the promenades and rockeries overlap each other, showing layers of light and shadow under the moonlight and lights.
Yan Mo came down to Mrs. Wei's courtyard under the leadership of his servants, and sat down among a pile of famous herbs and flowers, which was very refreshing.

"Yan'er." Madam Wei didn't beat around the bush, she directly cut to the point, and said very sincerely, "Your marriage with Ming'er, the Duke and I are very happy. Seeing you dressed in Jiangnan girl's attire today is really amazing. I think of Yueming."

"Grandmother." Yan Mo said seriously, "Although I haven't met Concubine Ming, I often listen to Fox. Hearing the prince's mention, she must be a beautiful, gentle, beautiful and intelligent lady."

"Yes." Madam Wei sighed, "Ming'er most likely resembles His Majesty, only that bit of charm resembles Yueming. Yan'er, we are elders, we don't ask for anything else, I only hope that you juniors can be happy and happy." Live happily, and you can have a full house of children and grandchildren." As she spoke, she looked up at the other party carefully and saw that the other party had no intention of resisting, and then said, "Your Majesty asked you and Ming'er to choose a date to get married on your own. Marrying a princess, but heirs are a big deal, so."

"Grandmother means..." Yan Mo couldn't help twisting his facial features, she really didn't expect that the two elders were so anxious that they urged her to have a baby? !
Mrs. Wei smiled a little forcedly: "If you and Ming'er consummate the house immediately and have a child, it will inevitably attract criticism, I mean, for Ming'er." Seeing the other party staring at her in slight surprise, she is not good at going down. said.
Yan Mo thought about what happened to Miss Jiang Er earlier, and probably guessed what Mrs. Wei was thinking, and immediately his heart tightened!She naturally felt that she would not stay by the fox's side for a long time. Now, the enemy who killed the family has clues, and maybe they will find them soon. And she can't stand in the way of the fox's love.
"Grandma means to let the prince take a concubine?"

"Yes. I just wanted to ask what you mean." Madam Wei said tentatively and softly.

"Grandmother, forgive me." Yan Mo respectfully said, "I come from a rivers and lakes, and I am not familiar with the internal affairs of those courtyards. Let the elders handle these matters!"

When Mrs. Wei first heard that her grandmother had forgiven her, she thought it was over, but she didn't expect Yan'er to be so open-minded!Immediately showed a gratified smile and said: "I didn't expect Yan'er to be so magnanimous! Don't worry! You are the concubine who was bestowed by His Majesty to marry, and no one can replace you! When you and Ming'er get married in a proper way, you have your own Everything will be perfect, baby~"

Afraid to disappoint Madam, Yan Mo said so heartily, but with a generous smile on her face, after several rounds of talking and comforting, she finally left Madam Wei's courtyard and walked towards Yuemingxuan.However, she did not expect that this journey would be much longer than the time before.
The autumn wind blows the skirt, the shadows are sparse, and the curtain is separated from Xiaomeng.

Waiting for the rain in the empty steps, the voice of the heart is clear, and there is no love or hate within a short distance.

I never thought, but I missed the jade man endlessly
The sweet-scented osmanthus blossoms in the courtyard are in formation. Qi Ming has been watching the flowers alone for a long time, looking forward to it, but he has not seen Yan Mo's return. come on! ! !
