Chapter 111 Assassinated
"You want to ask me why? Then I will tell you exactly what it is for."
When she raised her head again, Liu Qing had two lines of miserable tears on her face. Her eyes firmly met Murong Qing's gaze. She was no longer as ashamed as before.
"I remember that you and I exchanged sedan chairs, and we got married by the wrong person. Now you and the general are living a loving life in every possible way, but as for me, have you ever thought about what kind of life I am living?"
Faced with Liu Qing's accusation, Murong Qing suddenly panicked. He was stunned and unknowingly relaxed his hold on Liu Qing's hand.
"I..." Murong Qing hesitated, and there was a hint of guilt for Liu Qing in his eyes.
However, the bullying and oppression Liu Qing received in the prince's house these days made her emotions come out all at once, and she couldn't hold them back.
"Do you know what the third prince has been doing to me these days? I have been insulted by him all day long and beaten severely by him," Liu Qing burst into tears. "I can endure all these, who told me that I have a bad background?"
?”
Murong Qing felt even sadder after hearing this, and didn't know how to answer Liu Qing's words.
"But no matter how many things I have done for him, every time he opens his mouth, he still only has you in his heart. You are the only one in his heart. What do you think I should do?"
Faced with Liu Qing's accusation, Murong Qing fell silent.
Liu Qing's fate was indeed much worse than her own. She married a husband who not only did not pamper her, but also attacked her with fists and kicks.
Even though she felt bitter in her heart, she did not dare to turn around and tell her mother-in-law's family, for fear that her mother-in-law's family would accuse her.
After Liu Qing vented her anger and grievances, her eyes gradually became cold. She reached out to wipe the tears on her face and left as if nothing was wrong.
If the third prince loses face because of his disheveled appearance, he will probably be beaten severely when he returns home. Liu Qing has already guessed his situation.
Murong Qing was stunned for a long time, and when he came to his senses again, Liu Qing was nowhere to be seen.
After spending the entire birthday party uneasily, Pei Mo took Murong Qing and left the Shangshu Mansion.
"Ouch!"
The two of them were walking on the road, Murong Qing had been absent-minded, and accidentally stepped on a pothole and sprained his foot.
Fortunately, Pei Mo reached out and grabbed her arm in time, so she didn't fall to the ground.
"What's going on? I see that you have been distracted all afternoon. Did something happen?"
Pei Mo noticed something wrong with Murong Qing very carefully, with a look of concern on his face.
Murong Qing also knew that this matter could not be concealed, so he told Pei Mo all about the conversation he had just had with Liu Qing.
"Pei Mo, if I had not married Miss Liu Qing by mistake, would you have fallen in love with Miss Liu Qing now?"
After asking this question, Murong Qing was tormented in her heart. On the one hand, he wanted to hear Pei Mo's answer, but on the other hand, he was afraid of hearing a positive answer. Her heart was very tangled.
After all, in her opinion, although Miss Liu Qing's family background is not very good, her character is also nothing to say.
But Pei Mo's faint smile had dispelled Murong Qing's doubts.
"It turns out you have been struggling with this matter for a long time," Pei Mo stopped, stretched out his hands, pinched Murong Qing's shoulders, and turned her face to his, with deep affection and tenderness in his eyes, "
The general will solemnly tell you today, no!"
Murong Qing was stunned for a moment.
The answer came too quickly and beyond her expectation.
"I have been surrounded by many women throughout my life, but until today, the only one I love most in my heart is you."
Pei Mo Buping not only answered Murong Qing's question, but he didn't seem to think there was anything to hesitate.
Murong Qing felt like he was in a dream at this time. He stood there blankly for a long time before gradually coming back to his senses.
"Husband." He shouted softly, and his body was held in Pei Mo's arms.
The two stood there for a long time, feeling even more deeply that they were loved by each other.
And Murong Qing gradually felt a sense of security in her heart.
"By the way, that piece of jade just now is so valuable, isn't it a pity that you gave it to the Minister of Civil Affairs like that?" Murong Qing suddenly remembered what happened just now, and felt very guilty in his heart.
She had also heard people around Pei Mo mention the origin of this piece of jade, and it could be described as priceless.
Pei Mo usually regarded this gift as a treasure, but he didn't expect to fall into the hole dug by the third prince today, so he could only bear to part with it.
"If it weren't for me, you wouldn't have thrown away this beautiful jade." You kept saying and your voice gradually became quieter, feeling that you had caused trouble to Pei Mo.
But Pei Mo didn't seem to give too much advice at this time. Instead, he smiled lightly and comforted Murong Qing.
"To me, it's nothing more than an external possession. It's the same wherever you put it. I'm not too attached to it."
"You really don't care?" Listening to Pei Mo's calm words, Murong Qing still had a hint of doubt in his heart.
"Don't worry, if I was really obsessed with the value of that piece of jade, I wouldn't give it to others today. Can I still lie to you?" Pei Mo smiled softly, like the wind in spring, which made Murong
Qing feels very warm inside.
"Okay, this matter has passed, don't worry too much, let's go home." Pei Mo gently took Murong Qing's hand, and they returned to the general's mansion together.
Another person came from the palace and called Pei Mo away, while Murong Qing went to Mingyue Tower for personal matters.
Last time, accurate information came from Mingyue Tower, which helped them a lot. This time, Murong Qing wanted to make more complete arrangements to ensure that nothing went wrong.
That afternoon, Murong Qing arranged everything, looked around cautiously, and found that there was no suspicious figure, then he left Mingyue Tower and went to the General's Mansion alone.
But just when she was halfway there, a dark figure suddenly jumped out of the alley on the side of the road. He raised a knife and dropped it. The dagger had already scratched Murong Qing's neck.
It was at that moment that Murong Qing instinctively ducked back. The knife failed to cut her neck, but just passed through her arm.
"hiss!"
But even so, the sharp blade had already pierced into her fair skin.
In an instant, a stream of blood flowed out from the wound, staining the light pink coat red, and blood flowed out from the fingers.
"who?"
The man in black didn't succeed and hurriedly disappeared into the alley.
Murong Qing instantly became vigilant and shouted, but when he raised his head, he could no longer see the figure of the man.
At this time, Pei Mo had just come out of the palace when he received news from Liu Shen.
"General, I just received the news that my wife was attacked on the road. I also just received the news and am about to rush to rescue people." Liu Shen looked panicked.
"Is this happening?"
"Come with me to save people!"
Pei Mo frowned, and in an instant he used Qing Gong, leaping from the ground, and in the blink of an eye he was already two or three feet away.
