The three people in the room looked stern.
Haruzhi looked wary.
"Who's out there?"
The door was pushed open, and on the corridor outside the room, as far as the eye could see, all of Pero's subordinates in black fell to the ground.
But the three people in the room were completely unaware of all this.
Therefore, this group of black-clothed guards should have been dealt with by someone in a very short time, so that no one had a chance to say anything.
At this time, Xia Ye had to stand up, but subconsciously stood in front of Pei Luo.
The person who came was a white-haired old woman with a mediocre appearance. She was the one who spoke just now.
Behind him was a young man.
Although Pei Luo and the other three did not know the old woman in front of them, they were very familiar with the young man.
Isn't he the former Lingguo proton who "has no power to restrain a chicken"?
Seeing the young man, Pei Luo recalled the incident where he was seriously injured by an unknown force after accidentally discovering the young man in Qiushi County.
Anger, humiliation, joy...all kinds of complex emotions were intertwined in his heart.
"Ling Qianyao, how dare you appear in front of me..."
Pei Luo had no confidence in his harsh words, but this was also his final stubbornness as a prince.
Of course, his lack of confidence was not because he was afraid of the young man in front of him, but because he was worried about the unpredictable old woman beside him.
Now that things have happened, Pei Luo can naturally figure it out.
The mysterious person who injured himself in Qiushi County before, but he didn't even see the other person's face clearly, was the old woman in front of him.
The young man stretched out his index finger, shook it vigorously at Pei Luo a few times, and said with a smile: "No, no, Prince Anle, let me correct you, I am not Ling Qianyao, my name has always been Jiang Qianyao."
Pei Luo chuckled.
"Oh, Jiang Qianyao? It seems that when the Ling family sent you to Luodu, they had the intention of killing someone with a borrowed knife. Tsk, tsk, you are really a pathetic person..."
The "Luodu" in his mouth refers to the capital of Wei State, namely Luo'an Prefecture and Luo'an City.
"I didn't expect that King Anle would soon be in disaster, and he would still be so willing to tease the younger generation. It seems that this experience is not in vain." Grandma Meng suddenly said.
"Oh? What the old lady means is..."
There was a smile on Pei Luo's lips, but his heart was agitated.
It was difficult for him to calm down before the other party made his intention clear.
"I am Meng Jiu. Your Majesty, you can call me 'Grandma Meng'. I came here specifically today just to remind you that you are going in the same direction as us and are in a very dangerous situation. Don't you realize it at all?"
Pei Luo actually thought of Granny Meng's reminder.
The time when Jiang Qianyao was rescued from the prison in Luo'an City was infinitely close to the time when he left the capital.
If someone in the court wanted to take advantage of this to cause trouble, it would be easy to charge him with colluding with fugitives.
Furthermore, even if this plan fails, it can still be arranged for him to end up traveling with the fugitives and be killed by Jiang Qianyao and his associates.
The news that Jiang Qianyao had fled to the southeast of Dongyuan Mansion was leaked, which happened to be the catalyst for all this.
As for the truth, no one actually cares whether he was killed by the former Lingguo proton and his accomplices.
Anyway, as long as Peluo is dead, the king, the prince and his son can rest easy.
But Pei Luo was really surprised. Why did Brother Wang suddenly decide to attack him?
Isn't his performance in the past few years enough to prove that he has no intention of taking that position?
Thinking of this, Pei Luo couldn't help turning his head and glanced at Xia Ye, the woman sent by Brother Wang to monitor him.
But he quickly changed his gaze and looked at Meng Jiu.
"Grandma Meng is here just to tell Pei this, right?"
"No, I also want to remind you that you must be careful about your own safety. In addition, if you are willing, we will be happy to escort you back to Luo'an City safely.
"But the prerequisite is that you let Jiang Qianyao get rid of his identity as the former hostage of the Ling Kingdom. You also need to tell the world that his surname is Jiang, not Ling. I believe that the conditions we proposed are just a trivial matter for you, Prince Pei.
"I just don't know, are you willing to make this deal with us?"
For Pei Luo, who used to be in the capital of the country, the conditions put forward by Grandma Meng might be just a matter of words to come up with a solution.
But now the king's brother Pei Hong, the king of Wei, has issued an imperial edict and appointed him as Chunhua County Lieutenant.
As a brother, Pei Luo had no reason to defy the order and return to the capital to break up with Pei Hong.
Once he actually does that.
Being treasonous and unethical and being ridiculed by the world is just one of them.
Secondly, it also destroyed the brotherly relationship he and Pei Hong had accumulated over the years.
No matter which one of these two consequences, Pei Luo cannot bear the consequences.
Therefore, Pei Luo was just stunned for a short while and then shook his head.
"Grandma Meng, please come back. Although I can't deal with you for the time being, I will report this matter to my brother Wang later. By then, if he insists on getting rid of Ling Qianyao, oh, no, if it is this Jiang Qianyao, it should be very soon Reinforcements will be sent to support me."
"Hey! It seems that our visit today was in vain."
Meng Jiu turned his head and looked at Jiang Qianyao with a playful look. The latter pursed his lips and said nothing.
She looked at King Anle in front of her again, threatening her with words.
"Then I'll just wait for the prince's next move."
"By the way, during this period we will stay in a small inn called 'Fumanlou' on Huanghua Street. Lord Anle Wang is welcome to visit at any time.
"Also, the prince's injury was caused by me, but I can also heal it for you, if you are willing..."
After saying this, Granny Meng turned around and left, followed closely by Jiang Qianyao.
Pei Luo watched helplessly as the former Lingguo proton whom Brother Wang asked him to do his best to deal with, walked away from him gracefully, his eyes were cold, but he was helpless.
This was not the first time he had experienced this feeling of powerlessness.
The last time was when he was injured by a mysterious person in Qiushi County.
Grandma Meng just now took the initiative to admit that the incident had something to do with her.
In other words, Pei Luo actually fell down twice in front of the same person, which really embarrassed the Wei royal family.
But when he thought that Meng Jiu's strength was immeasurable and that he couldn't see clearly when he took action, Pei Luo felt relieved again.
In the face of strong strength, there is no shame in giving in.
"Xia Ye, go find out about the situation in Fumanlou."
As soon as the two left, Pei Luo ordered Xia Ye to do something.
"I go?"
Xia Ye pointed at herself, thinking she heard wrongly.
"Is it possible that you want Harue to go?"
Pei Luo glanced at Xia Ye coldly, "You won't even forget what you should do, right?"
Xia Ye had mixed feelings in his heart, but he quickly reacted and said, "Yes! I obey!"
After she finished speaking, she turned and exited the room.
Haruzhi said hesitantly: "Master, Xia Ye..."
