After marrying wrongly, I became the general's white moonlight

Chapter 194 Interception
Make a bet the next day, it's night.

Candles were lit in the study of the general's mansion, and Pei Mo was inspecting military affairs. The windows opposite the golden nanmu case were open, sending in gusts of cool night breeze.

The beating candlelight was imprinted on Pei Mo's handsome face, like an immortal on a mural painting, carrying a holy light that cannot be desecrated.

The room was silent, and occasionally heard the sound of the wind blowing and the crackling of the burning candle. At this moment, Pei Mo's ears moved slightly, as if he caught the slight abnormal sound from the wind.

Pei Mo stopped flipping the pages of the book, and he raised his eyes to stare out the window, his calm eyes were instantly sharpened, like a falcon ready to go.

Murderous intentions were everywhere, and the atmosphere in the room seemed to freeze with tension.

"call out--"

The sharp sound of piercing the air with a piercing cold light hit Pei Mo's face directly!

Pei Mo's phoenix eyes narrowed slightly, and he quickly picked up the bamboo slips on the case table and hit the cold arrow flying with his backhand.

"Clap."

The cold arrow that was knocked into the air hit the pillar and fell to the ground.

Pei Mo stood tall and tall, copying the bamboo slips and stood there like a man guarding the gate.

But the strange thing is that the person who shot the sniper escaped quickly, leaving only the sound of the trees shaking around. Pei Mo did not dare to relax his vigilance until the surroundings returned to silence.

Pei Mo turned his head and picked up the cold arrow on the ground, inspected it carefully, and found that it was a cold arrow that could hide something, so he disassembled the arrow of the hidden weapon.

There was a rolled up paper inside, and Pei Mo took it out to check.

"Cangzhou civil strife, refugee riots, a large number of refugees fled to the state capitals, if there are mobs entering the capital, fear of trouble, I ordered you to take charge of all the entrances of the capital, and if you find mobs, they will be intercepted and killed, and they cannot be put into the capital!"

There were two lines of small characters written on the yellowed rice paper, but there was no signature, but Pei Mo knew that this was a message from the second prince.

His eyes were heavy, his face was stern, and his disgust for the second prince increased by three points.

If you send a letter, you just send it. If you insist on making such a fancy move, fortunately, he has rejected Murong Qing's soft-heartedness and wanted to stay with him in the study. If he didn't refuse, wouldn't he want to scare her?

No matter if it was an urgent matter, or if it was a slap in the face, the second prince's behavior really left a bad impression on Pei Mo.

The next day, many people from the outer city found that the troops at the entrances of the capital had been strengthened a lot. Whether they were entering the city for business, delivering goods, or going to relatives, they had to go through strict inspections before they could be released.

Quietly executed a few mobs outside the capital, and it was considered an explanation. Seeing this, Pei Mo whispered to the people around him.

After the target was locked, the water was quietly released on the person, and it was dark.

Thinking of Murong Qing's account of the person who reported on the embezzlement and disaster relief case, Pei Mo thought that his life would be difficult, so he also found something for the second prince so that he would not have to make up his own mind every day.

For the next two or three days, the general's mansion was calm and peaceful, but the capital city was not like this, as if something went wrong.

Dali Temple received a murder case the day before yesterday, and a murder case occurred in Nanmin Lane during the day. Some neighbors witnessed this bloody disaster with their own eyes.

According to the neighbor, it turned out to be a homeless man in sackcloth, looking very pitiful. A woman felt pity, opened the door of the home and gave the homeless man a bowl of porridge, never thought that the homeless man would rush into the house and kill him with a knife. The woman and her husband ran away after taking all the money from the woman's house.

As a result, portraits of the fugitive murderer were pasted on bulletin boards in the neighborhood, and the people in the capital were in constant panic.

But the matter was far from over, the murderer injured several people in the capital, and this incident even brought trouble to the court.

The emperor was furious, and ordered Dali Temple to arrest the murderer and give the people an explanation.

Fortunately, Dali Temple lived up to expectations, and the murderer was finally caught.

But when Dali Temple wanted to interrogate the prisoner, a shocking news came——

The prisoner was beaten to death by the prisoners in the cell!
Murong Qing was also very surprised when he heard the news, how could it be like this, if there was no conspiracy in it, she wouldn't believe it.

In the general's mansion, Fang Anren smiled all over his face, "Haha, I said it was impossible, that mob must have had bad intentions seeing the prosperity of the capital, I have found out, that mob is indeed from Cangzhou, but it is also I came to the capital because I was homeless. How can you say you want to report corruption or something? Seeing that the second prince will return to Beijing in five days, I think the result of our bet is certain. Don't lose Sorry!"

Fang Anren's most coveted sword is Pei Mo's sword. Pei Mo's sword cuts iron like mud and is extremely sharp. This is the only one in Dashun Dynasty!
Pei Mo is very precious, and it is easy for people not to touch his sword.

The more Fang Anren talked, the more vigorous he became, and he said flatly, "You promised, but don't play tricks, you will lose anyway, and don't care about these few days, your sword belongs to me!"

After speaking, he picked up the sword on the table and ran away, as if he was afraid that Pei Mo would pay attention.

But Pei Mo sipped his tea without stopping him, and there was no regretful expression on his face.

Seeing this scene, Murong Qing felt sorry for the sword, she leaned forward and said shamefully, "Pei Mo, I'm sorry, I caused you to lose the sword."

"Nothing, just a sword, if you lose, you lose."

Pei Mo wrapped him in his arms and said softly.

Murong Qing pursed his lips and said, "It's my fault too. It would be great if I could get more accurate information, so you won't lose."

"The sword is more precious than you." Pei Mo stroked her smooth and tender face with a smile on his face, "I don't blame you, it's my husband who fell into your hands. I believe everything I say."

Murong Qing smiled sweetly, his heart seemed to melt into a puddle of water, "Slick tongue!"

After speaking, her soft lips pressed against the man's lips.

Pei Mo reached out to pinch the back of her head, and deeply responded to the kiss.

Outside the general's mansion, he was treated like wind or rain, which couldn't blow into the hearts of the two of them.

Five days later, the disaster relief work in Cangzhou was almost done, and the second prince also left for Beijing, leaving only a few officials in Cangzhou to arrange various follow-up work.

During the day, he reported to the emperor about Cangzhou, and the second prince was rewarded by the emperor.

In the evening, the second prince hurried to Dali Temple.

"Second Highness, the dead body of this mob is here, the dungeon is cold, Second Highness, it is better not to stay for long."

The inspector of Dali Temple was puzzled when he learned that the second prince wanted to see the corpse of the mob a few days ago, but he could only cheer up to deal with the second prince.

The second prince said coldly, "My Highness knows! You can go down."

The supervisor of Dali Temple could only retreat in response.

It wasn't until only the second prince was left in the cell that the second prince ordered his subordinates to remove the white cloth covering the body.
