Chapter 194 Interception

The next day after we made the bet, it was night.

There were candles burning in the study room of the General's Mansion, and Pei Mo was checking military affairs. The window opposite the golden nanmu desk was open, sending in bursts of cool night breeze.

The beating candlelight imprinted on Pei Mo's handsome face, like an transcendent immortal on a mural, carrying a holy light that cannot be blasphemed.

The room was quiet, with the occasional sound of wind blowing and the beeping sound of candles burning. At this moment, Pei Mo's ears moved slightly, as if he caught the slight abnormal sound brought by the wind.

Pei Mo stopped flipping through the book. He raised his eyes and stared out the window. His calm eyes suddenly became sharp, like a falcon ready to go.

Murderous intentions were everywhere, and the atmosphere in the room was so tense that it seemed to be stagnant.

"call out--"

The sharp sound of breaking through the air with a biting cold light hit Pei Mo's door directly!

Pei Mofeng's eyes narrowed slightly, and he quickly picked up the bamboo slips on the case table and shot away the incoming cold arrows with his backhand.

"Crack."

"How can a sword be more precious than yours?" Pei Mo touched her smooth and delicate face with a smile on his face, "I don't blame you, I blame my husband for falling into your hands. I believe whatever you say."

According to the neighbor, it turned out to be a homeless man in sackcloth. He looked very pitiful. A woman felt pity for him, opened the door of her house and gave the homeless man a bowl of porridge. She never expected that the homeless man rushed into the house and killed him with a knife.

The woman and her husband stole all the money from the woman's family and fled.

Fortunately, Dali Temple lived up to expectations and the murderer was finally caught.

But Pei Mo drank tea quietly without stopping him, with no expression of regret on his face.

The prisoner was beaten to death by the prisoners in the cell!

Murong Qing was also very surprised when she heard the news. How could it be like this? She wouldn't believe it if there wasn't some conspiracy in it.

There was a rolled up paper inside, Pei Mo took it out and looked at it.

"There is civil strife in Cangzhou, refugee riots, and a large number of refugees fleeing to the various state capitals. If a mob enters the capital, trouble may occur. I order you to take charge of all entrances to the capital. If any mob is found, they will be intercepted and killed, and they shall not be allowed into the capital!"

Just send the message, and he had to do this fancy trick. Fortunately, he had previously rejected Murong Qing's persuasive attempt to stay with him in the study. If he hadn't refused, wouldn't he have scared her?

The shot Lengjian hit the pillar and fell to the ground.

Pei Mo reached out and clasped the back of her head, deeply responding to the kiss.

During the day, I went to court to report to the emperor about Cangzhou, and the second prince received a commendation from the emperor.

But the strange thing is that the person who fired the cold arrow quickly ran away, leaving only the sound of swaying trees around him. Pei Mo did not dare to relax his vigilance until the surroundings returned to silence.

The next day, many people from the outer city discovered that the troops at the entrances to the capital had increased a lot. Whether they were entering the city to do business, deliver goods, or go to relatives, they had to undergo strict inspections before being released.

In the General's Mansion, Fang Anren's face was filled with smiles, "Haha, I said it was impossible. That mob must have had bad intentions after seeing the prosperity of the capital. I have found out that the mob is indeed from Cangzhou, but it is also

You came to the capital because you were homeless. You said you were going to report corruption. Seeing that the second prince will return to the capital in five days, I think the outcome of our bet is certain. Don’t lose.

I’m sorry!”

The day before yesterday, Dali Temple received a murder case, and a home invasion and murder occurred in Nanmin Lane during the day. Some neighbors witnessed this bloody disaster with their own eyes.

The sword that Fang Anren covets the most is Pei Mo's sword. Pei Mo's sword cuts iron like mud and is extremely sharp. It is like a tiger with more wings on the battlefield. It is said that this sword is made of a special ore he discovered in the north.

This is the only one in Dashun Dynasty!

Pei Mo is very precious and won't let anyone touch his sword easily.

As a result, portraits of the fugitive murderers were posted on bulletin boards in the neighborhood, and the people in the capital were in panic all day long.

After saying that, her soft lips touched the man's lips.

Whether it was an emergency or a show of force, the second prince's behavior really left a bad impression on Pei Mo.

Pei Mo held the person in his arms and said softly.

Pei Mo stood tall and tall, holding a bamboo slip and standing there like a man guarding the gate.

Seeing this scene, Murong Qing felt sorry for the sword. She stepped forward and said ashamedly, "Pei Mo, I'm sorry. It was me who caused you to lose the sword."

"Your Highness, the corpse of this mob is here. The dungeon is cold and cold. Your Highness should not stay for a long time."

But when Dali Temple wanted to interrogate the prisoner, shocking news came -

In the evening, the second prince hurried to Dali Temple.

Murong Qing smiled sweetly, and her heart seemed to turn into a puddle of water with emotion, "Slick tongue!"

But the matter was far from over. The murderer injured several more people in the capital, and the matter even reached the court.

The more he talked, the more energetic Fang Anren became, and he said simply, "Don't lie if you agree. You will lose anyway, so don't worry about these days anymore. Your sword belongs to me!"

There were two lines of small words written on the yellowed rice paper without a signature, but Pei Mo knew that this was a message from the second prince.

Murong Qing pursed his lips and said, "It's my fault too. It would be nice if I could know more accurate information, so you wouldn't lose."

For the next two or three days, everything was calm and peaceful in the General's Mansion, but that was not the case in the capital. It seemed like something was going on.

After saying that, he picked up the sword on the table and ran away, as if he was afraid that Pei Mo would notice him.

His eyes were heavy, his face was stern, and his hatred for the second prince grew even more.

After the target is locked, he quietly releases the water and secretly infiltrates Chencang.

Pei Mo turned around and picked up the cold arrow on the ground. After careful inspection, he found that it was a cold arrow that could hide things, so he took apart the arrow of the hidden weapon.

A few mobsters were quietly executed outside the capital, which was regarded as an explanation. When Pei Mo saw this, he whispered to the people around him.

The emperor was furious and ordered Dali Temple to arrest the murderer and give an explanation to the people.

It doesn't matter whether it is wind or rain outside the General's Mansion, it cannot blow into their hearts.

Five days later, Cangzhou's disaster relief matters were almost completed, and the second prince also set off back to Beijing, leaving only a few officials in Cangzhou to arrange various follow-up work.

Thinking of the person Murong Qing told him about the case of the embezzlement of the disaster relief fund, Pei Mo thought that his life would be difficult, so he also found something to do for the second prince, so as to save him from having to make plans every day.

"Nothing, it's just a sword. If you lose, you lose."

The inspector of Dali Temple learned that the second prince wanted to see the corpse of the mob a few days ago. He was puzzled, but he could only brace himself to deal with the second prince.

The second prince said coldly, "Your Highness knows! You can go down."

The inspector of Dali Temple could only retreat.

It wasn't until the second prince was the only one left in the cell that the second prince ordered his subordinates to lift the white cloth covering the body.
