Chapter 193 The Bet

Chapter 193 Bet

The next day, Murong Qing traveled lightly and came to Mingyue Tower.

I haven't been out for a long time, so I came out today to ask about Pei Mo's life experience. I wonder if I got any new information.

"Boss, you're here!" Yan Ru, who hadn't seen Murong Qing for a long time, was very happy.

The group of them came to the wing on the roof of Mingyue Tower and retreated to talk about some important matters.

"Yan Ru, is there any news about Princess Qinghe recently?"

"No, Pei Mo has slowed down his investigation of Princess Qinghe recently. The forces in the capital are complicated and big moves may attract attention, so no new information has been found for the time being."

Murong Qing nodded, "I understand."

No matter if you slow down, or if you act too hastily, you may fall into a trap. It is too difficult to investigate the mystery of one's life experience, something that happened more than ten or twenty years ago.

"Boss, you've been away for so long. You must be hungry. Recently, a golden silk cake came out in the building. Would you like to try some?" Yan Ru said.

"Okay, then I'll just sit there for a while and then leave."

I don't know which sentence opened the conversation between the two of them, and they started chatting in the side room.

"Yes." Yan Ru nodded, "Before I met my boss, I was fleeing alone. I never expected to encounter bandits, and I almost... Thanks to General Fang's help, he was a life-saving grace for me.

"

In the evening, before going to bed, Murong Qing told Pei Mo the news and asked him if he wanted to make preparations in advance.

She paused again and said, "Maybe General Fang has long forgotten that there is someone like me among the people he has saved."

"It's really boring. This huge capital is nothing more than this."

"Boss, don't think nonsense!" Yan Ruji said sternly, but she did not dare to look directly at Murong Qing openly.

It seems that I will have to pay attention to everything in the next period of time. Murong Qing thought, put down the tea cup, and it was time to go back home and tell Pei Mo the news.

"What's wrong? It's not burned!" Murong Qing asked with concern.

Isn’t this obviously self-inflicted?

Apart from being rich in intrigues and intrigues, and the flashes of swords and swords, there is nothing interesting at all.

Murong Qing was just joking at first, but when he saw Yan Ru's appearance, he felt a little embarrassed. He could only sincerely promise her, "Okay, okay, I won't tell. Don't worry, I will help you keep the secret!"

She looked at Yan Ru, only to find that the base of Yan Ru's small ears were as red as cooked shrimps, and her eyes suddenly rolled around, as if she had realized something terrible.

The result of this moment of absence was that the hot tea overflowed from the bowl.

Murong Qing remembered the name he just mentioned and asked, "Do you know Fang Anren?"

Yan Ru didn't know what she was thinking, so she hit her knees hard, and mustered up the courage to say, "Boss, it's no need. Yan Ru knows that there is a huge difference in status between herself and General Fang, and maybe it is impossible in this life, so Yan Ru has never

Never thought about this."

Pei Mo raised his hand and touched her furry head and teased, "Why do you think so much all day long and pretend to have so many things on your mind, yet you are not afraid of turning into an old woman?"

"What kind of event can there be? It is said that a new restaurant will be opened in the east of the city in half a month. The owners behind it are the Minister of Rites and the Liao family who want to compete for the position of imperial merchant. It is said that the young minister of Dali Temple also knows the news. The two parties have been feuding for a long time.

, it’s hard to say whether the restaurant can be opened.”

"There is no happy event. It's just that Pei Mo's old friend returned to Beijing and we rarely meet. Pei Mo was so happy that he let me drink it and told me it was sake."

Yan Ru realized her gaffe and explained, "It's okay..."

The next day, Pei Mo found Fang Anren to discuss the matter.

But he hesitated to speak.

Originally, Yan Ru was minding her own business pouring tea, but when she heard the name 'Fang Anren', she was distracted for a moment.

He had been away from the capital for too long and knew very little about the second prince. He only made his own judgment.

Fang Anren said, "It's unlikely. No matter how you say it, the second prince is a noble man. If he doesn't get what he wants, why would he be greedy for that little money?"

Fang Anren added, "I think the second prince looks like a man of letters. He is the most noble. How can yellow and white things like silver get into his eyes? Besides, if I am greedy for money, I can't let others know. The second prince

In Cangzhou Prefecture, how can you know this in the capital?"

"Anyway, miss, just don't do these things."

"I haven't had a drink in three months. I had a few drinks yesterday and found out that I was deceived. It was fruit nectar with a slight alcohol flavor, not alcohol at all."

"ah--"

"Okay, I understand. The Second Prince's attention needs to be intensified. Please report to me if you have any specific news."

Pei Mo was silent, mainly because he didn't know how to explain.

Murong Qing began to think back and realized that something big was indeed going to happen. According to his memories from his previous life, after the second prince rushed to Cangzhou Mansion for disaster relief, he had some thoughts that he shouldn't have had. It was also at this opportunity that the second prince took advantage of Cangzhou Mansion.

The matter of the disaster relief money was reported to the emperor, which made him lose his heart as a king.

Murong Qing asked with a joking smile, "Yan Ru, tell me the truth, you shouldn't be happy with General Fang!"

It was so hot that Yan Ru screamed, her hand loosened, and the white porcelain tea bowl fell to the ground, shattering into pieces.

"Are you greedy?" Yan Ru looked at her dissatisfied look, smiled helplessly, and asked, "Why, there is some happy event in the house, and General Pei has opened the wine."

Murong Qing was so angry that he punched Pei Mo in the chest.

After that, the two chatted about other things, with a tacit understanding not to mention the little episode just now.

Murong Qing added, "By the way, that old friend is called Fang Anren, and he is the young general in the prince's palace."

"I see!"

Murong Qing complained, "Are there any activities in Beijing recently? I'm almost getting moldy staying in the general's mansion."

Murong Qing said with a smile, "Whatever it is, if you like it, just say it. It just so happens that General Fang and Pei Mo are old friends. Do you want to set up a line for you? After all, those who are near the water and the towers get the moon first!"

"Hey! I made a mistake as my husband. I won't bother you anymore. I have my own plan for this matter. You just have to watch."

Murong Qing was slightly surprised. He didn't expect that Yan Ru and Fang Anren had such a connection.

"By the way, boss, I heard here that the second prince seems to be making big moves recently, but I can't get the specific news."

Murong Qing, who was unable to do many things while pregnant, sighed.

Fang Anren spent a lot of time practicing martial arts and reading some classic books, but the people he knew around him were all generals, and he never really integrated into the officialdom where you come and go.

I don't blame him if he doesn't know the intricate forces involved. His background does not require him to flatter him. As long as he says a word, there will be a lot of people below to help him get it done.

"How about that? Let's make a bet. Let's use your sword as a bet. If I win, your sword will be mine. If you win, you can do whatever you want. What do you think?

?”

Pei Mo became interested and patted the sword on his waist, "Okay!"
