Chapter 184 The mantis is ahead

At dusk, the last guest was sent away, and the feast came to an end.

In the middle of the banquet, Murong Qing calmed down the shock in his heart and apologized to the second prince with a smile on his face. The second prince readily agreed.

Afterwards, Murong Qing secretly patted the back of Pei Mo's hand to give him a hint, and then returned to the wing to rest on the pretext of being too drunk.

Back in the room, once the environment becomes quiet, it is easy for people to think too much, not to mention the pregnant Murong Qing.

She paced around the room, trying to figure out what the second prince meant.

She thought she was a hunting oriole, but she didn't expect that she would become the prey in other people's mouths.

The more she thought about it, the more frightened she became. How could the second prince know that the people in Mingyue Tower were her spies? And when did the second prince know about it?

"well."

She sat on the bed frustrated. The second prince and the third prince were at odds with each other. They were bound to fight to death, so the second prince was fighting with his own hands, and he was fighting with her help. No matter what, the third prince was going to fight.

The one that was eradicated.

At first, she thought she had taken advantage of the second prince's power and influence, but now that she thought about it, she was the one being taken advantage of.

Although he was impatient, Murong Qing had to cheer up to deal with Zhang.

"No, things about you are the most important thing to me. This is not worry, this is..."

"How come the second prince's concubine has time to come to this humble residence? This poor concubine is really flattered."

Murong Qing only felt her nose was sore, and she threw herself into his arms with a flat mouth, feeling the beating of her heart. The weak heartbeat was as deafening and thrilling as the vow just now.

"Okay, don't think too much about it. Since the second prince didn't explain it in public at the banquet, it means that he has his own ideas. There will be a way to the mountain, and there will always be a way."

The smile on Zhang's face is decent and generous, which shows that people know their faces but not their hearts. In the previous life, Murong Qing died because she couldn't see people's hearts clearly, so in this life, it is difficult for her not to have the most malicious suspicions about people who are trying to be courteous for nothing.

Pei Mo paused for a while, inexplicably remembering the look he took off her red hijab and looked at each other, and slowly said, "It's the blessing of my life."

It was obviously a polite remark, but Murong Qing felt that there was something in it no matter what he said.

How could Ms. Zhang become the second prince's concubine if she didn't have any skills? She said with a graceful voice, "Sister, don't refuse in a hurry. No matter how precious this blood swallow is, it is worthless if it is not used in the right place."

, you see if I have any use now, I will leave it alone, good steel must be used on the blade, this Blood Swallow, I have already used it, so you should not refuse it anymore."

I didn't hear any movement from the second prince for several days. Just when Murong Qing's mind was completely settled, an uninvited guest came to the general's mansion again.

Murong Qing was extremely remorseful. All his emotions were mixed together for a moment, and his heart was in a mess.

The second princess helped Murong Qing, who was about to salute, and waved her hand to ask someone to carry a box of gifts into the general's mansion.

If gods and Buddhas had ears, they would surely be able to hear the deepest desire of his soul at this moment.

She told Pei Mo about this premonition, and Pei Mo listened quietly, and gently advised her to rest assured that she could just take care of the baby and leave the rest to him.

Pei Mo came in, took the person into his arms with a distressed look on his face and said, "Don't sigh. In the worst case, the soldiers will come and cover up the water and the earth. Don't worry, I'm here."

When things didn't go as planned, or someone was behind the scenes, they were still involved in the surging power and influence.

After hearing this, Pei Mo looked up and felt indescribable distress in his heart. The person in front of him was Murong Qing, the legitimate daughter of the King of the South, a girl who had grown up so pampered. How could she ask such cautious questions like this?

Fortunately, the second prince's concubine did not stay long. She walked around the garden of the General's Mansion and then left. Murong Qing was also in a hurry and wanted to send some guests.

"Then I would like to thank my sister here."

Pei Mo was not here, so Murong Qing and his servants greeted the second prince's concubine Zhang at the gate of the general's mansion.

Murong Qing wanted to refuse, but no matter how good the blood swallow was, she would not dare to ask for it.

For a while, the room was quiet except for the sound of slight breathing. The tenderness on Pei Mo's face disappeared. His narrow eyes were filled with frost and sharp, like a wolf ready to attack in the dark night, and like a wolf who was ready to attack in the dark night.

A goshawk locking its prey in the dome.

Who knows if she will be the next Bai Mengying?

"Thank you sister for your kindness, but this is really too valuable. How dare you accept it if you don't get rewarded for your merits?"

"It's been a busy day, please go to sleep."

After talking about this, any further refusal seemed like she didn't know how to compliment her. These polite words finally ended with Murong Qing accepting the gift.

Murong Qing cursed in his heart. He was really unwilling to give up. He even refused and kept coming. Not only was he very clever, he was also thick-skinned than ordinary people.

Pei Mo tucked Murong Qing's hanging hair behind her ears and gently coaxed her to sleep.

A lady with a slender figure and wearing a concubine-colored brocade jacquard jacket and skirt got off the bright yellow sedan. She was the second prince's concubine. Even after giving birth to two children, her figure was not out of shape.

"Sister, this is your first child, so you have to be careful. I have blood swallows as tribute. It's best for pregnant women to take. You must accept them."

"Sister, there is no need to see anyone outside. There is no need to call myself a poor concubine in front of me. We are similar in age, so why don't we treat each other as sisters?"

Seeing the dark blue under Pei Mo's eyes, Murong Qing's heart was clogged, and she wondered if she was too worried, and said with shame, "Have I made you worry again?"

When he said this, he was very firm in his heart, as if he was making a promise.

Pei Mo held her in his arms, his smile as gentle as the spring breeze melting away the frost.

"Besides, sister, you see, although I have given you many gifts, the most precious one is just this Blood Swallow. The others are just ordinary things, so my sister can just dislike them."

"I didn't expect the second prince to be more difficult to deal with than the third prince. The royal family is much more thoughtful than us." Murong Qing complained with a frown.

But even after seeing off Ms. Zhang, Murong Qing still felt uneasy, but she couldn't explain why she was panicking. She always felt that something was going to happen.

In this quiet and peaceful afternoon, Yan Ru came to the general's mansion in a hurry, and her arrival also broke Murong Qing's inner peace.

Yan Ru's face was solemn, and she spoke anxiously without even taking off her cloak, "Miss, I have news that I don't know whether to tell or not. It's of great importance. I don't know how to deal with it, so I can only report it to you."

Murong Qing's heart dropped. Seeing the seriousness of this matter on Yan Ru's face, she thought it was the exposure of the Mingyue Tower stronghold. She prepared her mind and said calmly, "It's okay. Just tell me what happened."

thing?"

Ruyan opened her lips slightly and spoke calmly as if she had finally made up her mind, "There are rumors that General Pei Mo is suspected of being of royal blood!"
