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

Chapter 374
Whether it was because of his friendship with King Yi or something else, Guo Kang readily agreed and told Fang Anren the time and address of a meeting.

In the afternoon of the next day, it was the time that Guo Kang and Fang Anren had agreed on.

Pei Mo and Fang Anren came to the market on the outskirts of Beijing early and found a place to sit down.

The market is crowded with people, including merchants who sell food, poor scholars who sell calligraphy, paintings and articles, opera troupes who make a living as performers, and old people who weave small gadgets in exchange for money.

At the end of the hustle and bustle are two people holding teacups sitting and waiting. They are lucky and don’t need to worry about three meals a day. They are also unlucky. Mood is forced to become a beast in a cage.

But they tried hard to break free from the cage. Although the process was heart-rending, the world outside the cage was bright and warm, free and vast, and nothing could restrain them anymore.

"Is the address that Guo Kang and you agreed on really here?"

Pei Mo looked at the shoulder-to-shoulder crowd in front of him, and couldn't help worrying about it. If there was a riot, accidents would inevitably happen here. The commander of the imperial army doesn't look like a thoughtless person.

But he thought about it again, there are so many people here, it is very suitable for people like Guo Kang who don't like to form cliques.

Fang Anren smiled mischievously, his eyes dodged. To be honest, he also suspected that he had gone to the wrong place when he came to this address, but he repeatedly confirmed that the words written on the paper were correct, it was here.

But they waited for nearly an hour, but they didn't even see Guo Kang's shadow. Fang Anren himself began to feel unconfident. He took out the letter paper and silently read the words on the paper.

"Tomorrow's Shenshi, the old market in South Lane in the suburbs of Beijing, will see you there. '

Fang Anren frowned, there was nothing wrong, he came here according to the time and place Guo Kang gave him!

Looking around, there was still no sign of Guo Kang. Fang Anren's heart skipped a beat. Did someone drop his letter?

Just when he was uneasy, Pei Mo turned his head as if feeling something, and looked into the crowd with a gleam in his eyes.

Following Pei Mo's line of sight, in the bustling crowd, a burly man in coarse sackcloth was carrying half a fan of pork on his shoulders. To his surprise, this man was actually a head taller than the people around him. , and with big shoulders and round waist, even if he doesn't have a sharp weapon on his body, it somehow makes people feel that this person is exuding evil spirits.

This frightening posture made no one dare to approach the man within three steps. In this way, an empty space was created in the crowded crowd, and this man was walking out against the crowd without turning his eyes.

Pei Mo looked away and breathed a sigh of relief at the same time. The person who came was Guo Kang, the commander of the imperial army. It seems that they did not wait in vain.

Guo Kang’s commotion was not small, and Fang Anren also noticed Guo Kang. Seeing the things Guo Kang was carrying on his shoulders, he couldn’t help but have a thought in his heart. Could it be the reason why Guo Kang didn’t marry a wife and have children? It was because he couldn't find a wife, because no girl dared to marry him, so he didn't have any children...

As Guo Kang got closer and closer, Fang Anren lowered his head and took a sip of tea with a guilty conscience.

Walking to the small table where Pei Mo was, Guo Kang put the pork on his shoulders on the table, and with a "squeak", the small table was shaken. Fang Anren looked at the shaking table legs, and couldn't help but I stretched out my hand to support it, and didn't dare to let it go until it stopped shaking.

Fang Anren raised his head and looked at Guo Kang's face. In fact, despite Guo Kang's burly body, his face is still pretty good. It is quite pitiful that he is almost 40 years old and still can't find a wife.

Fang Anren, who was about to marry a daughter-in-law, took pleasure in other's misfortune.

"Major General Fang asked me to come, why did he bring outsiders?"

There was no emotion in Guo Kang's words. He glanced at Pei Mo. He had heard a little about the general of the town, and he was capable. However, he and Pei Mo rarely met, so he didn't know if he was someone he could associate with.

Quite contrary, the voice of Guo Kang, who was one head taller than ordinary people, was not as rough as imagined, but as dull as a beast.

Fang Anren smiled, poured a cup of tea for Guo Kang, stretched out his hand across the half fan of pork on the table and handed it to him, "Commander Guo drinks tea, in fact, this time I asked Commander out, brother Pei wants to see Commander, and I hope Commander Don't blame me for making my own claims."

Guo Kang's face was still indifferent, but he took Fang Anren's tea naturally.

"Well, if General Pei wants to ask me for anything, just tell me. The weather is fair today, very suitable for marinating bacon."

Although he didn't blame him, Guo Kang was urging them to speak quickly, impatiently, and don't delay him from salting the bacon.

Regarding his impatience, Fang Anren felt a little worried. Isn't the emperor's business more important than his cured bacon?
Pei Mo didn't care about Guo Kang's cold face. He just looked around and saw that no one noticed them, so he opened his mouth in relief, but his voice was obviously lowered a lot. After all, this matter is not trivial. If others listen to it It's terrible.

"Commander Guo is a straightforward person, so Pei Mo doesn't beat around the bush." ​​Pei Mo put down his teacup and met Guo Kang's sharp eyes. "It's just that this matter concerns Dashun's country and society. Would Commander Guo want to talk about it in another place?"

"laugh."

Guo Kang smiled disdainfully, Dashun's Jiangshan Sheji?

He suddenly felt that Zhen Guo's general Pei Mo was nothing more than that, such a ridiculous excuse could be said.

So Guo Kang jokingly said, "It's really embarrassing for General Pei. In order to make the commander laugh, he racked his brains so hard to come up with a joke."

Hearing the change of Guo Kang's title, Fang Anren couldn't help but sweat. Before hearing his father mention Guo Kang, he didn't think that this person had a weird temper. When he saw him today, he knew that he was not easy to deal with.

Pei Mo, who was laughed at, looked calm and composed, without any shame or resentment, he just explained calmly, "Pei didn't joke, doesn't Commander Guo think that the emperor's illness is strange?"

Guo Kang raised his brows. It turned out that Pei Mo was playing the emperor's idea. He was so bold. He suddenly became interested, "Really? How strange, General Pei will tell you."

He knew about the emperor's illness, and he personally heard Imperial Physician Guan say that the emperor's coughing up blood was caused by overwork. Could it be that Imperial Physician Guan dared to lie about the emperor's illness?

Seeing that Pei Mo was not in a hurry, Fang Anren felt relieved. He believed that Brother Pei could handle this matter well, so he turned around and gave them a break.

Seeing Fang Anren's actions, Guo Kang wondered why the Fang family boy trusted Pei Mo so much. Thinking, he looked at Pei Mo in surprise, it seems that this Pei Mo is quite capable of deceiving people.

Pei Mo didn't know that he left a bad impression in Guo Kang's heart, so he tapped the table with his fingertips, "Pei thought that someone poisoned the emperor behind his back."
