Chapter 68 The Tranquility Before the Storm

"big big big······"

"Small, small, small..."

"Ah! I won...!"

"Damn dog, can't you let me win once?"

"Okay, okay, I'll let you win the next one, hehe..."

At this moment, at a corner across the street from Zuixianju, several beggar children gathered together to play dice...
"Xiaogu, what's the use of Miss telling us to stare at this drunk fairy house? It seems that there are only those who come to drink every day, and it's nothing special!" a beggar asked in a low voice.

"Shhhh, Gouzi, keep your voice down, have you forgotten the rules? Talk less, do more." Xiao Gu at the side scolded softly.

Gouzi heard the words and patted his head: "Yes, I was wrong." "Come on, let's continue playing."

I saw Xiaogu glance at Zuixianju, it seems that I have to think of another way...

······
At this moment, Zuixian lives in Meixiang Pavilion.

A man in a white brocade robe was fiddling with the wine utensils on the table at the moment. The man had gentle eyes and a graceful demeanor.

In the eyes of the world, this person is Murong An, the tenth prince who retired early, and the current Prince Gong.

I just heard Jiang Mu say: "My lord, Xiao Shizi has been away from the imperial capital for several days. These days, the imperial capital is also very peaceful. Could it be that Emperor Mingxi just let it go?"

Seeing Murong An at the side, Fang stopped what he was doing and said with a smile on the corner of his mouth, "Jiang Mu, do you really think that the emperor is calm now?"

"Then you've heard, the calm before the storm!"

Jiang Mu questioned when he heard the words: "My lord, what do you mean, Emperor Mingxi will definitely fight back this time?"

Only Prince Gong Murong An continued to say: "Our Emperor Mingxi is not a good person. From the canonization ceremony until now, I thought he should have fought back long ago, but I didn't expect to see him move all the time, which made me look at him with admiration. .”

"This time, Xiao Jinxi has been quiet for so long, but for Xiao Jinxuan, he acted so vigorously, which really surprised me."

Hearing the words, Jiang Mu also said with emotion: "My lord, everyone knew about the marriage bestowed by the late emperor back then, but they didn't expect that this plan of alienation has not worked so far, and the late emperor has passed away."

Prince Gong took a sip of wine and continued with a smile: "Who is Mrs. Xiao in the Marquis of Wu'an's mansion? She is far-sighted. The late emperor's thoughtfulness can't help her. Do you remember what Xiao Jinxi said when he surrounded the two mansions? When he was enlightened at the age of three, he had already been recorded under Mrs. Xiao's name, but not many people knew about it. It is estimated that Emperor Mingxi would know, because Xiao Jinxi told him before."

"Look, if this matter was announced back then, how could it have the deterrent effect of today's soldiers besieging the two houses! Although Xiao Jinxuan is recorded in the name of Mrs. Xiao, it is already a fact that her biological mother is a concubine. , people’s words are terrifying. But after the soldiers surrounded the two mansions today, look at who else in the imperial capital dares to touch this Nilin easily."

Jiang Mu understood immediately when he heard the words: "What the prince said is true! This old Mrs. Xiao is really scheming!"

"Old Madam Xiao is indeed scheming, but without Xiao Jinxi's vigorous and resolute actions, such thunderous means would be in vain." Prince Gong said frankly.

"What the prince said is true. It seems that there is always a reason for the Marquis of Wu'an's mansion to stand up to this day." Jiang Mu said with emotion.

Prince Gong continued: "Among the two founding marquises, Wu'anhou's mansion is still standing, while Wendinghou's mansion has long existed in name only. If Dugu Ziyan hadn't taken over these years, how could there be the current situation."

"But now, the strangeness is the strangeness. The originally quiet Mansion of Marquis Wending suddenly popped up, and it seems to be alongside the Mansion of Marquis Wu'an. But this is not in line with Duguziyan's behavior style these years."

Jiang Mu was puzzled when he heard the words: "My lord, are you saying that the current situation is not necessarily what Dugu Ziyan wants?"

I saw Murong An finish the last sip of wine in the cup, and said: "Let's see. Whether it is true or not, you can only understand it at the end."

"My lord, what can we do now?" Jiang Mu asked again.

Prince Gong Murong An heard the words and smiled: "What to do? What we have to do now is to make good money, and don't interfere with the rest."

"Yes, my lord, I understand." Jiang Mu replied with a smile when he heard the words.

······
Night, Jinxiu Pavilion of Marquis of Wu'an Mansion.

Xiao Jinxi pinched the center of her eyebrows, with a slightly tired expression, she got up and walked inside.

Wei Mo suddenly appeared, bowed and said: "Master, Ji Haotian is gone."

Xiao Jinxi turned around immediately after hearing the words: "When did it happen?"

"Our people just found out, moreover, our people just saw the Duguziyan sect's people returning home in panic to report." Wei Mo replied with a bow.

"Didn't people outside the palace see Ji Haotian?" Xiao Jinxi asked.

"My subordinate asked, but I didn't see it." Wei Mo replied.

I saw Xiao Jinxi walking to the pear flower couch, staring at the chessboard on the pear flower couch, for some reason, I felt a little uneasy at this moment... It seems that Dugu Ziyan is not sure about Dugu Yan's actions, so he keeps sending people Staring at Ji Haotian.This Ji Haotian has been quiet for so long, what will he do now?
In other words, what does Dugu Yan want Ji Haotian to do?How did she send a letter to Ji Haotian?With so many people staring at him, Ji Haotian just disappeared?No!This is not the first time it disappeared, the last time I went out drinking at night was the first time!Then since the last time they disappeared, Ji Haotian and Dugu Yan have been meeting under Dugu Ziyan's eyes!
Or it should be said that Dugu Yan had already arranged tasks for Ji Haotian last time, and Ji Haotian has been lurking quietly recently, just to get rid of all eyes when everyone relaxes their vigilance!
So what does Dugu Yan want to do now?For her now, it should be her biggest heart trouble not to be able to ask for a posthumous position!What would she do if she wanted to ascend to the post? ······
Wei Mo on the side looked at Xiao Jinxi who had been staring at the chessboard with his head down, and quietly stepped aside, not daring to disturb...
"Little..." Luoer, who came out of the room, was about to call out, when Wei Mo flashed to him, covered Luoer's mouth with his hand, shook his head, and looked at Xiao Jinxi one by one, signaling Luoer not to come out. Voice.

Looking at her young lady in front of the pear flower bed, and at the hand covering her mouth, Luo Er immediately raised her foot in anger, and stomped on Wei Mo's boot...

Wei Mo instantly let go of his hand in pain, and took a few steps back, but he didn't dare to gnaw...

Luo Er saw it, made a face at Wei Mo, walked aside, picked up the embroidery frame and began to embroider, and turned to look at his young lady, alas, Wei Mo just said something to the young lady again, and the young lady is going to go to bed again tonight. She went to bed very late... She turned her head and glared at Wei Mo, and cursed silently: "Stinky crow!"

Wei Mo on the side wiped his head helplessly, quietly retreated to the side and waited...
