When Mr. Mo and his step-wife appeared, the maids and servants who were surrounding them quickly pushed away. They also knew that their disheveled clothes were not suitable for seeing people, so they quickly stepped aside, which also gave way to the things they were surrounded by.
Today happens to be a night of full moon, and you can still see some things clearly under the moonlight. What’s more, the boy Zhang Deng who followed Mo Xiang is very discerning. When Mo Xiang looked over, he quickly bent down and lowered his head. , held the lamp and came over to illuminate Mo Xiang.
Mo Xiang frowned and stepped forward when he saw a mass of black and blood. As he walked, he took the long sword handed over by the waiter beside him.
This is a sword worn during some important festivals or special ceremonies. It looks gorgeous but is not actually sharp.
But Mo Xiang's civil sword was different. It was passed down from the Mo family's ancestors. At that time, the sword was not divided into civil and military swords. The sword was gorgeous but heavy, and it was the kind of sword that could be used to kill enemies in battle.
Holding it, Mo Xiang had a strange aura about him. He took three steps and two steps to approach the still frightened scattered meat cubs. As soon as he got closer, the three meat cubs let out a sharp and changed baby cry. , got even closer, they didn’t even dare to climb on them, they all shivered and curled up into a ball.
Others were terribly afraid of this kind of thing, but Mo Xiang was not afraid at all, and he could see the clues of this thing at a glance.
He looked over the Nekomata's body with the long sword in his hand.
Maomata looked like a pregnant female cat with a big belly, but in fact, after Mo Xiang looked through it, he came to a different conclusion.
"This should be the male cat raised by Lingyun Temple and sent as tribute from the * Kingdom. He must have eaten something bad."
If you look closely, you can see that this cat has died a long time ago. Although its body is still soft, it has already stinked. Moreover, the cat's body has a tendency to swell, and its hair has lost its original brightness.
The most important thing is that this is a male cat. How can a male cat have a pregnant belly and give birth to cubs?
Looking at the three unformed little things, they look like immature cat cubs. In fact, if you look closely, you can see that the three little things have no tails, and their limbs have some human-like claws that look like human hands. The facial features are also more human-like.
"It should have eaten some kind of host (something with a soul). These three things want to be resurrected with the help of Nekomata's body. It's just that even if the things Xiaoguo comes in are magical, they are just exaggerations. They can't withstand three The hostility of a reincarnated ghost.”
Mo Xiang is well-informed, he can understand these things at a glance, and his thinking has spread to whether this is man-made, whether there is a ghost in Lingyun Temple, and whether the rare and exotic beasts from small countries have also been regarded as sacrifices. Sacrifice.
In the blink of an eye, he had already drafted a memorial in his mind and prepared to report it to the emperor tomorrow. This matter needed to be thoroughly investigated.
Although those things are just playthings that the Holy Emperor does not like, after all, they are tribute from the vassal countries. If they are used by villains, it will still bring disgrace to the Celestial Empire.
What's more, these things have come to his house today. Fortunately, this cat has been dead for a long time. It should be controlled by these three cats. It can run and jump to the limit, so it didn't hurt Mo. Zhenzhen and the child in her belly.
If it was really hurt, Mo Xiang wouldn't even dare to think about it!
Mo Xiang was furious, and he struck each of the three trembling little things with his sword.
Mo Xiang didn't need to think too much to know what these three ghosts were doing here. They must have seen that his daughter was pregnant with multiple fetuses and was about to give birth, so he thought he had an opportunity.
A group of speculators who had wanted to be reincarnated, even to the point of becoming monsters.
How could they let go when they might take away the fetus?
Especially for an official family like them, if they can successfully reincarnate, they will have endless dreams of glory and wealth in the future, and they will almost reach the sky in one step!
These ghosts thought they were beautiful, but Mo Xiang became more and more angry the more he thought about them.
After handling these three, he asked the boy serving him to come forward and put them into a box and seal them. Tomorrow, he would have to hand them over to Dali Temple for disposal (they were filth and could not be taken to the palace). At the same time, This is also evidence.
After doing all this, Mo Xiang came to the little girl's boudoir with his sword in hand. He didn't go in, but just asked through the door.
"It's dark and heavy, please don't come out. Are you hurt? Are you feeling uncomfortable somewhere? Are you frightened? Do you need to call a doctor?"
Across the door, Mo Zhenzhen answered softly.
"My father and mother were worried, but I was fine. Fortunately, the maids and mothers who were keeping watch in the house were vigilant, so they didn't let that thing get close. I feel very familiar and at ease living here, and I was not frightened. By the time I realized what was happening, it was over."
The three maids and women in the room almost knelt down in front of Mo Zhenzhen when they heard this, their gratitude was beyond words.
With Mo Zhenzhen's words, their negligence tonight was revealed, and they might even get some rewards.
As for Mo Xiang, he didn't care at all about what Mo Zhenzhen said. What he focused on was Mo Zhenzhen's tone.
How could Mo Xiangren, who has been in the court for many years, not know the subtleties of words?
He heard Mo Zhenzhen's speed and tone of voice were normal, and it didn't look like he was scared. She even felt a little naive when talking to him. He could hear a little curiosity, and her tone was calm and didn't sound like she was in pain, so he felt relieved.
"It's okay. You should rest early and don't hurt the baby in your belly through exertion."
The child in Mo Zhenzhen's belly was too important to Mo Xiang to lose even a little bit.
Precisely because she knew this, Mo Zhenzhen responded very obediently.
"Okay daddy, daddy and mommy should also take care of themselves."
"Um."
Despite Mo Xianghui's indifference, Mo Zhenzhen actually benefited from a simple child's dependence on his father.
I used to think that this daughter was born unlovable. If she had been a boy, he wouldn't have to worry about his death at such an old age.
But now that I think about it (especially if the heirs are lagging behind), it would be nice to have a daughter.
My daughter is caring, well-behaved and docile, and she also misses her elders in the family. Although he was not a boy, it still benefited him somewhat.
Mo Xiang didn't go back to sleep tonight. He asked someone to bring a chair and sit in the middle of the yard with a golden sword. The sword was lying across his legs. Despite his age, he still stayed by Mo Zhenzhen's side. Out all night.
The second wife originally wanted to go in and guard Mo Zhenzhen. She would not feel at ease if she didn't guard her, but in the end she was forced to retreat by a look from Mo Xiang.
Mo Xiang's meaning is very simple. Mo Zhenzhen is already asleep, so don't disturb her. Only when the mother's body is well nourished can the child be healthy.
If she goes in and guards, the child will not be able to sleep well if she is filial, so don't go in and let her sleep well. If she wants to guard, just stay outside.
It's just that the step-wife is a woman after all, and Mo Xiang is accompanied by many servants. She didn't care about the emergency situation before, but now she feels that it's inappropriate to come out wearing a coat, so she finally goes back.
