Nine-fold lotus of the famous family

Chapter 642 The Grand Finale (9)
An Ye must accompany her. She brought Huanzi, Liuli and Zhuye Zhuqing with her. After the guard chief Tan left, Yang Fan took on the task of guarding the general's mansion. This time, he ordered fifty powerful guards to accompany him. As for the hidden guards, An Ye temporarily arranged some, enough for this long trip.

After the spring, the ice on the river had already melted. Ji Chonglian chose half land and half water, which shortened the time, and of course gave the children time to adapt.

It was late June when they arrived at the nunnery where Peng Zepei's mother lived, and the weather was hot and humid. The cicadas hid behind the trees and cried hoarsely in the afternoon, which sounded especially noisy.

Sister Shuang casually picked up a stone and threw it on the top of the tree, as if she had hit something, but the cicadas chirped even louder, she had to cover her ears with her palm, and pouted dissatisfiedly, " One day I will destroy you all!"

Brother Yuan clapped his hands aside and shouted: "Sister is amazing!" The excitement was beyond words, looking at the tall tree beside him, he seemed to want to jump over and climb a few times.

Ji Chonglian glanced at Brother Yuan, smiled and shook her head: "Look at this monkey, just now he was sleepy in the car, but he woke up completely as soon as he landed."

Sister Zheng pursed her lips and secretly smiled, stepped forward to hold Ji Chonglian's hand, raised her head and said, "Mother, let's go see grandma!"

Ji Chonglian nodded, and beckoned to Sister Shuang and Brother Yuan, "Let's catch the cicada later, and go visit your grandmother first!"

If Mother Pei came to see her when she knew that the children were not in the nunnery, she might blame Ji Chonglian for not teaching them well. We should do the same.

Sister Shuang was rolling up her sleeves, and she seemed to want to climb up the tree to find out what happened. At this moment, she could only stop when Ji Chonglian called her. She knew that her mother didn't get angry very often, but she had to listen to everything she said, otherwise she would turn around But she had good fruit to eat, so he took Brother Yuan's hand and whispered something in his ear, and the two of them ran over happily again.

Ji Chonglian covered her lips with a smile, "Look, these two siblings look like a pair, and our Zheng sister is more like a sister!"

Sister Zheng pursed her lips and smiled.

Sister Shuang blew on the Liuhai hanging down her forehead indifferently, and dragged Brother Yuan to walk in front, "Let's go to see grandma first!"

Ji Chonglian winked, and An Ye hurriedly followed with a few guards, leaving Yang Fan and a team behind.

The courtyard where Pei's mother lived was relatively secluded, and one could enter through the small corner gate on the other side without going through the nunnery. On weekdays, few people came in and out, so the old nun who guarded the gate was a little frightened. After Ji Chonglian and the others explained their purpose, they let people in. Most of the guards were waiting outside, except for An Ye, Yang Fan only brought a few guards with him.

Mother Pei lived in a courtyard with two entrances. The mother-in-law who took care of her lived in the outer courtyard, and the two palace nuns lived with her in the inner courtyard. Dazzled by the sun.

"anyone there?"

An Ye pushed the door open, and there was obviously no one in the first time, which made people suspicious.

Ji Chonglian also sensed that something was wrong, and hurriedly protected the children behind her, Liuli Huanzi and bamboo leaves and bamboo green surrounded them all.

Yang Fan also keenly sensed that something was wrong, and with a wink, several guards immediately dispersed to check the surrounding movement carefully.

"lady?"

An Ye turned her head inquiringly. The atmosphere here was so unusual that she smelled a hint of danger. She was waiting for Ji Chonglian to make a decision, whether to go in or leave?

It seems that something happened, Ji Chonglian was silent, but since they came here, they must confirm the safety of Pei's mother.

Ji Chonglian nodded to An Ye, "Go in and see if anyone is there, be careful!"

The door of the central hall was wide open, and one could see the three main rooms, one bright and two dark. Before An Ye could step in, a hoarse and deep female voice came out from the gap in the door, With a soothing tone, as if everything is under control, "But Mrs. Pei is here?"

Obviously it should be a familiar voice in memory, but because of the change of tone, it makes people feel a little strange, Ji Chonglian can't remember who the owner of this voice is for a while.

An Ye hurriedly took a few steps back, put one hand on his waist, already looking very alert.

Yang Fan confessed a few words to a guard behind him, and saw that guard quietly left the yard, he drew his sword and stepped forward together with the remaining guards to block Ji Chonglian and the children, and said sideways: "Ma'am, something is wrong here, you take the children and get out first!"

An Ye also turned around and nodded to Ji Chonglian, obviously she also agreed with Yang Fan's statement.

"Wait a minute!"

The voice sounded again, mixed with a few low smiles, "Mrs. Pei, you can't leave right now. If you still worry about Mrs. Pei's life, I want you to come in alone!"

"mother!"

The children grabbed Ji Chonglian's skirt tightly, with panic expressions on their faces.

"Don't be afraid!"

Ji Chonglian shook her head, tried her best to appease the emotions of the children, and then shouted into the room, "You said that the old lady is also inside, how do I know if it's true?"

"Ha ha……"

The man laughed in a low voice, as if he had ordered something inside, and gradually the gap in the door that was originally concealed opened to the side, first revealing a section of maroon skirt, and slowly, Mother Pei appeared in front of everyone It's just that a bright dagger was pressed against her neck, her terrified eyes could be clearly printed, her mouth was open, as if she wanted to say something, but only half of her blood-red tongue was showing!
"what!"

Zhu Qing behind Ji Chonglian screamed, and covered her eyes in fear.

Bamboo leaves trembled beside her, her feet were completely frozen.

After all, Liuli and Huanzi were much quieter. After the initial fear, the two hurriedly stood sideways in front of the children to prevent them from seeing this scene.

Ji Chonglian clenched her lips, her fists trembling in her sleeves, not because of fear, but because of anger!
Although Pei's mother disagreed with her, she never wanted her to be harmed. After all, she was Pei Yan's mother, the grandmother of their child.

But what she saw right now was a haggard face, sunken eye sockets, terrified and helpless eyes, and half of her tongue that was cut off. Today's mother Pei can't even cry out for help, and can only utter broken words. The babbling sound is like a child learning to speak.

"My patience is very limited," the voice rang again, "If Mrs. Pei refuses to come in alone, then I will..." Following her words, the man holding the dagger exerted more force, Blood oozes from the blade's blade into the flesh, and a look of pain appeared on Pei's mother's face.
