As soon as Mo You said these words, the inner guard behind him flashed his weapon.
But immediately, the guards of the Duke of Shi's Mansion also broke in and surrounded the internal guards.
For a moment, the situation was tense, but neither side made the first move.
"What is this doing?"
A male voice interrupted, and then Wen Renchi was seen walking into the house from outside.
When Shi Baoning and Dong Hui saw Wen Renchi, they immediately rushed forward as if they had seen their backbone.
"Brother Chi, you're finally here. If you don't come, the inner guards will demolish Duke Shi's mansion!"
Shi Baoning complained eagerly and said it seriously.
Wen Renchi's face immediately darkened, he looked at Mo You with displeasure, and asked in a cold voice: "Master Mo, what do you mean?"
Mo You was a little frightened when he saw Wen Renchi, but he was sure that Shi Qingxue would have to escape here if he wanted to escape, and he was unwilling to let the duck fly.
He held on and said: "Mo Junyang conspired to commit treason, but now he is absconding out of fear of crime. Under your Majesty's order, I will first arrest everyone from Prince Rui's Mansion and bring them to justice, including the Crown Princess Shi Qingxue. Since the Duke of Shi's Mansion is a big Mo Zhichen, please cooperate!"
Wen Renchi had already known about the situation of today's morning court before he came back. At that time, he had a premonition that something was not good, but he did not expect that the trouble would be more troublesome than he imagined.
Mo Junyang patted his ass and left. Now His Majesty did not even miss the old feelings of Shi Guo Gongfu and wanted to attack Shi Qingxue.
I'm afraid that Shi Qingxue will be in trouble this time!
Thinking of this, Wen Renchi couldn't help but frown, but he quickly lowered his brows and said calmly: "My wife just said that Qingxue is not in the Duke Shi's Mansion. Lord Mo, please come back!"
"If you don't hand over Shi Qingxue, I will take you back and punish you!" Zhang Yang suddenly said, trying to scare them.
Unexpectedly, Dong Hui didn't buy it at all, and snorted coldly: "I wonder which of you dares!"
Mo You pretended to scold Zhang Yang, "Don't be rude."
He put on a smile again and said gently: "I failed to manage my subordinates well and offended my wife. But what Zhang Yang said is not unreasonable. My wife should know what the crime of collaborating with the enemy and treason is! According to Da Mo's laws, you can be sentenced together.
If Mrs. Shi refuses to hand over the person, I'm afraid I will be offended! "
Mo You thought to himself that Shi Qingxue might really not be in the Duke of Shi's Mansion, but with Shi Qingxue's temperament, if the Duke of Shi's Mansion was implicated and his family was arrested, Shi Qingxue would definitely throw himself into the trap.
If you can't catch Shi Qingxue, it's not bad to catch these baits!
Anyway, Mo Junyu has given him the authority to do things expediently, so he can't miss the opportunity. If he delays it any longer, I'm afraid even the Duke Shi's Mansion will ask people to go to the entrance of the building!
He secretly winked at the inner guard, who was ready to make a move again.
However, before they could actually take action, Dong Hui suddenly shouted: "You should take a look at this first! If you dare to act so recklessly in the Shiguo Duke's Mansion, don't you want your head anymore?"
I saw Dong Hui opening a wooden box on the table, and there was an iron scroll inside.
When Mo You and others saw it, their expressions immediately changed and they stopped acting rashly.
Seeing that he had frightened the person, Dong Hui smiled proudly and said, "Master Mo is well-informed, so he shouldn't know this thing!"
Mo You: "Elixir Book Iron Coupon!"
"Master Mo has such a keen eye! In this case, you should also know that no one is allowed to be presumptuous when seeing the iron certificate of the elixir book, just like meeting the late emperor!"
Dong Hui said slowly: "This is a gift from the late emperor. Even if His Majesty sees you now, he must be polite. Master Mo, are you still going to take us back?"
Mo You was unwilling to accept it, but as Dong Hui said, even Mo Junyu didn't dare to act rashly on the iron book of the elixir, let alone little minions like them.
He could only swallow all his dissatisfaction and force out a smile, "I don't dare, I will take my subordinates away immediately. I'm sorry for disturbing you so much, please don't take offense, Madam Shi!"
"Walk!"
Mo You led a group of subordinates, who were as arrogant when they arrived and how defeated they were when they left.
Like a bereaved dog.
After they left, Wen Renchi immediately ordered people to strengthen the defense of the mansion. No one was allowed to enter or exit without his order.
After doing all this, he looked back and saw that Dong Hui and Shi Baoning had already sat on the chairs, and their expressions were not very good.
"Mom, this is the iron coupon for the alchemy book..." Wen Renchi clearly remembered that the iron coupon for the alchemy book was in Shi Qingxue's hand.
If he had known that this thing was in Dong Hui's hands, he wouldn't have been so worried just now.
After all, once the iron certificate of the Alchemy Book comes out, basically no one dares to offend.
In the whole country, there is only one piece.
Don't look at how domineering and arrogant Dong Hui was just now, but in fact she was worried to death.
After finally dealing with the person, she didn't feel victorious at this time, and her spirit was a little depressed.
He said slowly: "Qingxue had someone bring it here last night. He said I might be able to use it!"
In the middle of last night, when she took the iron coupon of the alchemy book from the maid Dongshuang, she still looked confused. She didn't know what Shi Qingxue's purpose was in suddenly giving this to her
Until now, she was both frightened and thankful at the same time, and couldn't help but sigh that Shi Qingxue was really foresighted.
If we don't have this iron certificate of alchemy today, I'm afraid it will not end well.
When Wen Renchi heard Shi Qingxue's name, his expression suddenly tightened, but he soon relaxed and asked, "Qingxue is at home now?"
"She didn't come, and luckily she didn't come! If the internal guards were to forcefully search the house today, just the few servants in the house might not be able to stop it!" Dong Hui sighed, unable to help but feel sad in her expression.
Mentioning this, Dong Hui couldn't help complaining: "I have long said that Mo Junyang is not a good person, and Qingxue should not have been married to him in the first place!
It's better now, he didn't enjoy the benefits, and now Qingxue is still implicated by him. If you commit treason, that is a serious crime of losing your head! "
Dong Hui trembled all over thinking about it and didn't dare to think about it any more.
Shi Baoning's face didn't look too good either, and he snorted: "It's a good thing she didn't come! What if we get involved if she comes? Who is willing to suffer for her!"
"Baoning! What are you talking about?" Wen Renchi scolded in a deep voice, very dissatisfied with Shi Baoning's ruthlessness.
Shi Baoning didn't give in at all, and looked at Wen Renchi with his head held high, "What did I say? Honestly! If her man hadn't rebelled, would we need to be so worried
I don't care! Since Shi Qingxue wants to rebel with Mo Junyang, then she is no longer a member of our Shi family, and her life or death has nothing to do with us! "
"you!"
Wen Renchi stared at Shi Baoning in disbelief, unable to believe that she had said such cold-blooded words.
Shi Baoning had a cold expression, turning a deaf ear to Wen Renchi's anger, and had no intention of changing his attitude.
"Okay, stop arguing. Don't you think the current situation is chaotic enough?" Dong Hui rubbed her forehead with a headache.
He did not judge who was right or wrong between the two, and directly interrupted their conversation rudely.
When she saw that Ren Chi was still unhappy, she added: "Okay, Chi'er, everything is fine now. You are still on duty today, go quickly!"
Wen Renchi felt uneasy, fearing that Mo You would try again.
At this time, his subordinate Tieniu said that he had something important to ask him.
"Go quickly, so as not to miss the main business." Dong Hui persuaded again, and Wen Renchi left.
When there were only two mothers and daughters left in the room, Dong Hui turned her eyes to Shi Baoning. Seeing that the latter still looked stubborn, she couldn't help but sigh and said directly: "Ning'er, mother knows that you and Qing The estrangement is so deep that it is difficult to reconcile, but don't forget that she is your biological sister after all!
My only biological sister! Do you really have the heart to watch her die? "
Shi Baoning: "..."
She was speechless, and she lost the confidence she had just faced Wen Renchi.
"Ning'er, my mother knows how you feel. But so much time has passed, and now your children have been born, and Qingxue is married. Can't you let the past things pass?"
Dong Hui sighed: "Let me tell you, there is nothing wrong with the two of them. You and I have been watching from the side. Can this be wrong?"
Shi Baoning murmured: "Didn't you see! Brother Chi was still speaking for Qingxue just now! Doesn't that look like nothing is wrong!"
Dong Hui shook his head helplessly, "If he doesn't speak for Qingxue, then he won't be him!
Ning'er, don't forget. Regardless of whether Chi'er treats Qingxue or not...he is Qingxue's brother, the brother he has lived with for more than ten years. If he didn't protect Qingxue, he would have wasted so many years of love! "
After some heartfelt words, the knot in Shi Baoning's heart finally dissipated a lot.
In fact, Baoning also knew at that time that Wen Renchi's current treatment of Shi Qingxue - even in the past - was not even the slightest bit inappropriate.
She was just jealous, nameless jealousy.
Even now, she is no longer angry, but she still hardens her heart: "Even so, as Da Mo's general, he should know how serious the crime of rebellion is. Aren't I doing this for his sake
The Shi family has the iron book of elixirs, so they have nothing to fear, but what about him! If His Majesty was angered by protecting Qingxue, would he still want to be his general? "
"..." Dong Hui sighed and said no more.
In fact, even she didn't know what she would choose if Shi Qingxue came to ask her for shelter last night.
Will she take the risk of taking in her daughter, or will she give up... for the sake of the lives of the entire Shi family
Just thinking about this thought made her heartache so much that she could hardly breathe.
Fortunately, she doesn't actually need to make such a choice.
Shi Qingxue didn't come!
"I hope Qingxue will be fine!"
At this point, Dong Hui can only look forward to this.
On the other side, after hearing the news from his subordinate Tieniu, Wen Renchi led his people and hurried to the gate of the north city.
Along the way, he did not forget to confirm with Tieniu again: "Are you sure you read correctly? Mo You really led the inner guards to the north gate?"
Tieniu nodded, with an anxious look on his face, "That's right! Brothers saw it with their own eyes, and the clothes worn by the inner guards are easy to recognize, so there is no way they can be mistaken!
As soon as they left the Shifu, Mo You seemed to have received the news and led the people to the gate of Beicheng without saying a word. Now, I'm afraid we've already gotten there! "
When he said this, Tie Newton paused and lowered his voice and asked: "Boss, do you think it's possible that they just went for the young lady?"
Wen Renchi was shocked, but he was not sure, so he just said: "Go and take a look first!"
