Chapter 86

Self-directed and self-acted

"You don't know, right? The general has been targeted everywhere in the court recently, and he doesn't seem to be in a very good mood." Ping'er looked like the matter was serious.

The same trick was repeated in front of Murong Qing.

Ping'er didn't believe that Murong Qing, who had a general in his heart, would treat it as nothing happened after hearing this.

Sure enough, Murong Qing's expression changed. But he quickly returned to normal, "What's the matter? What does it have to do with me?"

On the surface, Murong Qing still looked the same as before, but on the inside, he began to worry.

"Madam, aren't you worried about the general at all? Liu Shen said that the general is so worried about the affairs of the court and you that he doesn't think about food and tea." Ping'er continued to make up.

How could Murong Qing not be worried? She couldn't pretend anymore. Ping'er looked at her frown and knew in his heart that the other party was starting to waver.

"Okay, you go down, I'm tired." Murong Qing turned around and stopped looking at Ping'er.

Ping'er also realized that he was talking too much, so he bowed and left.

As the night progressed, Ping'er's words kept lingering in Murong Qing's ears. Murong Qing had to think about Pei Mo.

After thinking about it, Murong Qing looked up and found that he had walked to the General's Mansion. It was strange that no one was on duty outside the General's Mansion today, and the door was left open.

After struggling for a while, Murong Qing chose to go in. As soon as she entered, she saw several men in black sneaking around, and among the men in black there was a man wearing emerald green clothes.

"Keep your voices down! Come with me!" the woman whispered, looking around as she spoke.

The roads the woman led were all very hidden paths, and no one passed by.

Murong Qing was observing carefully not far away. He happened to be wearing a black cloak today. After thinking for a moment, Murong Qing tore off a corner of the cloak, covered his face and blended in.

"Hey, how long does it take to arrive? How much is the reward? If it is less than fifty taels, I will never do such a dangerous job as sneaking into the general's mansion." After Murong Qing got into it, he said moderate words.

The man in black in front did not look back because it was difficult to see clearly in the night.

"Are you stupid? Seventy taels of silver! Otherwise we wouldn't risk our lives to come here!" The man thought Murong Qing had forgotten and scolded him mercilessly.

Murong Qing's guess was indeed correct, these people were all hired.

Bai Mengying, who was walking in front and leading the way, stopped and said, "This is it. You pour gasoline around the perimeter. After pouring, you will withdraw when you see my gesture." She spoke in a low voice.

Murong Qing was standing at the back and was not noticed by Bai Mengying. But the moment Murong Qing saw her, he was still a little surprised and unbelievable.

Unexpectedly, Bai Mengying would dare to do such a thing now.

"Copy that." The men in black said in unison, and Murong Qing followed them to work.

Those people poured oil all over the outside of the study, while the lights were on. She tried to stay calm and thought about how to solve it.

But time waits for no one, and in an instant, a raging fire suddenly broke out outside the study. Bai Mengying stood outside and watched all this with a smile.

"What are you doing!" A man in black shouted at Murong Qing.

Murong Qing couldn't care about that much anymore, and she rushed directly into the study, which was filled with fire. Bai Mengying looked at this scene and realized that something was wrong. According to the plan, she should also go in to save people.

Under the high temperature, Murong Qing could not see anything clearly.

She was very panicked, afraid that something would happen to Pei Mo. If something happened to Pei Mo, then she would be considered half an accomplice. Murong Qing could not accept this happening.

"Pei Mo!" Murong Qing shouted with all her strength, her eyes filled with tears, but she tried her best to stay calm.

Because panicking now will not do any good in saving people.

Pei Mo suddenly heard a familiar voice and he woke up a little. It was at this time that Murong Qing discovered Pei Mo sitting at the desk.

She was overjoyed and approached quickly. However, she saw that the bookcase behind Pei Mo was about to collapse.

"Be careful!" Murong Qing rushed forward desperately and pulled him towards her.

The sound of the bookshelf collapsing was deafening, but fortunately neither of them was injured. Pei Mo was completely awake at this moment. He quickly grabbed Murong Qing's wrist and went out.

"How's it going? Are you injured anywhere?" Pei Mo asked the other party nervously as soon as he came out. The worry in his eyes was undeniable.

When Murong Qing saw that he was fine, he finally dared to cry loudly.

"I'm fine." Murong Qing shook his head, "Do you know that I was worried to death just now?"

Looking at the crying Murong Qing, Pei Mo felt a little overwhelmed for the first time.

Because of the huge commotion, the entire Southern Kingdom Palace came here. Liu Shen immediately organized people to start putting out the fire, and the scene was very chaotic.

Suddenly, a woman ran out.

When she came out and saw Murong Qing and Pei Mo standing side by side, her expressions were ugly.

But he still walked up to Pei Mo and deliberately pretended to be worried: "General, it turns out you have come out! I thought you were in there just now, so I wanted to go in and save you."

The eyes of others looking at Bai Mengying were full of teasing and ridicule, because Bai Mengying was pretending to be too fake. Their intention to provoke was very obvious.

"Help? You were the one who set the fire. How dare you say help me?" Murong Qing had already collected her emotions. She walked up to Bai Mengying and said with a strong sense of oppression.

Bai Mengying subconsciously looked at the eyes of the people around her. Her expression was extremely guilty.

"What? Are you guilty?" Murong Qing sneered, her patience with the woman in front of her had reached its limit.

What is tolerable is not to be tolerated, and opportunities should be left to those who correct their mistakes when they know they are wrong.

Pei Mo looked at Murong Qing's back and found that there were some burns on her arms and back. He was not a fool. He could tell something by looking at Murong Qing's attitude.

"What nonsense are you talking about? Why do you say that to me without any basis?" Bai Mengying tried her best to straighten her back and pretend to be a bystander.

Murong Qing smiled, only thinking it was ridiculous.

"No evidence? I have sprinkled silver powder on those men in black. If you follow the direction of the silver powder, you can know where they are going. Won't we all know when we confront each other face to face?" Murong Qingqing had already kept a secret.

To be honest, it was thanks to Murong Qing being killed again and again in his previous life, otherwise he would not have known so many methods.

At this time, Pei Mo spoke: "This general will definitely investigate this matter to the end and find the real culprit." He did not intend to give in and cause his woman to be injured. Pei Mo would never let it go casually.

"you!"

Pei Mo waved his hand: "Liu Shen, push her down."
